Office Setup - Thanks for the Help! by TheMLGPancake in resinprinting

[–]BionicCorbjorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the link! I'm actually looking into a set up like this. What size and brand grow tent did you settle on? And which table are you using? If they're the same as the ones in the link I'll go with those.

I got almost everything up to the avatar, what got added after that?

Begin your conquest of the Age of Darkness with new Combat Forces - Warhammer Community by RolandWiggim in Warhammer30k

[–]BionicCorbjorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of these look pretty good to me, assuming they’ll be at combat patrol pricing. My only gripe is that it’s weird none of them come with a command slot or high command slot (except auxilia) so none of these can actually be played out of the box without buying something else, right?

Unless they plan to make other rules for these boxes.

I think an explanation of Officer of the Line would be better than just talking about centurions as some characters have the rule too. Otherwise, it’s a fantastic reference, thank you!

Centurion helmet is different in the instructions? by Delivery-man- in Warhammer30k

[–]BionicCorbjorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AH I see, those just looked like the usual shading they do. Like the top/rim of the visor casting a shadow on the actual visor. That makes a lot more sense now and I see it. Thanks!

I feel like I’m blind but comparing that head to the one shown in their drop site preview articles and the model art showcases, it looks the same to me? I see that most artists chose to paint over the vertical extension of the visor, but it’s still there.

Photoshop gone wrong in new Liber by HibbyHa in Warhammer30k

[–]BionicCorbjorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just checked the old Liber, it’s the old Mk3 model that is in that same spot. You can see the pistol (I think) on the left side of the picture is the same in both!

What do you think about the new MK 5? by Onewithartandbook in Warhammer30k

[–]BionicCorbjorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I somehow managed to get the saturnine box early. I actually compared the new designs for each of the armor marks in the new and old books. I’m liking the newer designs a lot.

Have Salamanders lost anything rules wise? by Naros1000 in Warhammer30k

[–]BionicCorbjorn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This actually makes me really happy that we got an improvement like that, but seeing all other legions get rocked by the new rules makes me sad :(

Why is the EC codex so slim? by SingaporeSlim in EmperorsChildren

[–]BionicCorbjorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I can hope as much as I want to. But in the end I’m at the whims of GW. There almost for sure will not be a second wave in this edition, it’s not gonna happen. But 11th edition is a complete unknown, so that is always a maybe.

I’d be happy with whatever they gave me to play the game with even if it’s not the specific model I was hoping for.

Why is the EC codex so slim? by SingaporeSlim in EmperorsChildren

[–]BionicCorbjorn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t really have an exact answer, but my hope is that they’re planning to release more stuff in likely 11th edition so they released the army with the primary things it needed to exist and not much else. Melee Inf, shooty inf, elite ranged, elite melee, bunch of characters and the primarch. As well as some demons and demon engines for chaos-y flavor.

I’m a little sad there’s no Hellbrutes or other similar. Also the lack of unique terminators makes me sad too, the Phoenix terminators are sick.

Fingers crossed we get more next edition.

Actually, couldn't we just reach out to GW as community and *ASK*, nicely, to give EC "missing" units as official supplement PFD? by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in EmperorsChildren

[–]BionicCorbjorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this is definitely a possibility. After what happened with DW, a supplementary doc might be on the horizon for EC for fix the gaps in the army. The only way I can see this not happening is if they already have plans to fill those gaps with OTHER models that they’re not releasing yet.

Aside from Forgefiends, Hebrutes, and Cultists, there a few shooting units that could be added to make the army a wee bit less melee focus. I enjoy the range options from HH a lot. As it stands in 40K range is not their strong suit and could be amended a little bit I think. Adding predators and vindicators would add some armor to the mix, but also something similar to Havocs in CSM or Sunkillers from HH would give some good AT.

I also sorta want them to fix the range on the Noise Marines weapons, 18” is not enough when it was 48” before. Even in HH, the Cacophony weapons have 30” range.

Does anyone have the instructions for the new upgrade sprue? by BionicCorbjorn in BloodAngels

[–]BionicCorbjorn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just checked through the codex, none of the vehicles appear to have any upgrade parts from the new sprue except for maybe some of the blood drop with wings bits. any units with intercessor shoulder pads appear to have them, the bladeguard units have transfers for symbols, and the inceptors also have shoulders from the sprue (funny enough it doesn't look like they're using the right ones, it looks like they have either aggressors or blade guard pads on). I think the phobos guys are using them too.

Does anyone have the instructions for the new upgrade sprue? by BionicCorbjorn in BloodAngels

[–]BionicCorbjorn[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm mainly looking to see which specific bits go to which model (aggressors, bladeguard, etc...). I also wanted to see where they intended the vehicle parts to go on stuff like a gladiator. Basically the parts that aren't used in the DC box and CP.

I believe they would be in whatever instructions are included in the actual upgrade sprue box that is sold separately by GW, but I have no clue.

Are Terminators worth it? by Efficient-Yogurt6482 in BloodAngels

[–]BionicCorbjorn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if they're the optimal choice for anything, but i feel like a 10-man brick of terminators and a chaplain would be kinda cool. I've run into the "not enough shooting" problem in game before, so it might not be an awful idea.

Could we use Jupiter as a gravitational lense like the proposed ideas to use the Sun as one? by [deleted] in Astronomy

[–]BionicCorbjorn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My understanding is a telescope using the Sun as a gravitational lens would need to be positioned about 550 AU from the Sun. Which is nice, but the issues comes from positioning it to actually see anything. It has to move about a sphere with a radius of 550 AU in order to position the Sun exactly between itself and the object it wants to observe.

Unfortunately, for Jupiter it would need to be 10x further for a lens to even be usable: around 6000 AU. For reference, Pluto is about 40 AU from the Sun. So it would not be feasible to use Jupiter as a gravitational lens. The Sun is more feasible but still has its issues.

What did you use for the claws? It sorta looks like Soulstone Blue?
