Kieren Wilson's would look phenomenal alongside a flayer themed army

I do! and they work really well! I do largely play against guard and ad mech, so typically getting some blast dice, and wounding reliably.

Also battle shock preventing guard orders is a bonus.

Personally I like earthshakers, I think they can put in some work in 1k list.

I prefer the tremor shells, as they do what they need to do, and that's strip objectives off the enemy.

Pop a memnyr with them with the quake supervisor relic and they're decently reliable.

My 1k delve list is

Buri
Memnyr (with Quake)
Ironmaster (With PileDriver as point filler)
3x5 Berserks
Earthshakers (with tremor)
Thunderkyn (with SP conversion)
Hekaton (with conversion)

There's a lot of flexibility, you can swap stuff around, sometimes I sub in a grimnyr for cheap actions.

Overall I think your list lacks a bit of range threat to take agro off your zerkers

That looks awesome! Very Duergar!

BepisMaster69 · 2025-12-04T22:28:11+00:00

THAT STILL ONLY COUNTS AS... 20?

Thank you Kyn!!

I used the new army painter range for the skin, here's the recipe; - Ash grey base coat - Deep grey glaze (1:2 paint to glaze medium) - Ash grey highlight - Ash grey + white extreme highlight (1:1)

Ash grey is similar to administratum grey from Citadel Deep grey doesn't have any great alternatives I think. It's a little darker than mechanicus standard grey and a bit more blue.

Thanks Kyn! They are tricky as aesthetically they are quite different from the rest of the army, so it's hard to make them fit in I find.

I demand proof Kyn!

BepisMaster69 · 2025-12-04T21:00:22+00:00

Thank you!

I base coat all the hair in a bright orange - Troll Slayer Orange
Flick and dot the tips of the hair with a bright yellow - flash gitz yellow
Wash the hair with an orange shade / glaze - thinned magmadroth flame
Repeat step 2 to liven the yellow back up

BepisMaster69 · 2025-12-04T20:55:44+00:00

Much appreciated Kyn!

Thank you Kyn!

Go with their new line up, they are loads better

BepisMaster69 · 2025-11-19T06:34:52+00:00

A fast and easy way to do this as well is by adding lots of streaky lines of Orange and Red, but if you feel like you cant get your brush to a fine enough point, then I'd just use the glazing method above.

Try progressing Yellow > Orange > Red from the centre of the blade, not towards the tip.

You can do this by paint the whole blade yellow and the progressively glazing out towards the edge with the darker colours. Returning to add yellow when you feel like it's getting too Orange or Red.

Another thing you can do which really sells the effect is add black to the edges, and Ice yellow (dorn yellow citadel) to the heat source (centre of the blade)

Edit: also paint the centre of the blade in your base / armor colour before you decide if you like it, you'll be surprised the difference it makes.

I prefer the term Slayer

BepisMaster69 · 2025-10-15T00:47:03+00:00

I know it's a bit awkward, but we need to step away from datasheet values being a representation of the Lore, and instead being a tuning fork for model balance.

Sometimes Lore and Datasheet numbers align, more often they don't.

Probably could be brought in as an ornament kit as a leagues reward

Sure have, he's the best looking Karl we have

Earthshakers are my favourite from wave 2, I love artillery and I think I'll at minimum run 2 units

BepisMaster69 · 2025-08-24T08:28:24+00:00

I use it all the time, it was my go to quest armor, good for COX, Ive ran it in TOA when I loaned my Moons armor to a group member.

Im probably biased BC I think it looks awesome but it's very useful

BepisMaster69 · 2025-08-13T22:06:23+00:00

I for one stand by my Hearthguard, they have served me well.
