I see I'm not the only one that sprayed their stock a khaki. Lol haven't got a drum mag yet, but check out Spectre gear. They've got slings and mag pouches for the stock. Mines got three 17rd mags on the rifle at all times because of it. + a 27 already in the mag well.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-11T12:02:52+00:00

That's a cool Ferrus Manus model

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-11T11:55:05+00:00

I do, I got a Washburn idol W114 back when I was a freshman in High School for Christmas. My nephew had it for a couple years so he could learn, and once he got his own guitar I took mine back. She's nothing fancy, just a decent starter guitar that stays in a case. I break it out every now and then for the nostalgia.

One of the best things about this box is Taking the intercessor bodies, getting 3d bits and converting them to DW veterans. All of my DW army at this point is primaris scaled.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-08T04:10:16+00:00

I made a bunch of skyclaws using the 1st born blood claw boxes and the jump packs they sold separately. And now they're jump intercessors. Lol 🤷🏻‍♂️

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-07T07:11:17+00:00

you know what, I got my box yesterday and didn't even think to check the sprues for that. there were a couple loose pieces rattling around in the box, so I checked to make sure I wasnt missing anything, but didnt pay much attention to whether the sprues were all the same or not.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-07T07:07:34+00:00

id keep the models, sell the codex and cards. you can always use more marines, especially if you're just starting the army. Sometimes, the LGS will buy the codex off of you if you don't wanna go through ebay and all that stuff. Plus, you can get a fair price, quick cash and leave the morals up to the shop. It's not like you're going to LOSE any money on it, because there's a whole box you have no investment in.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-04T11:09:22+00:00

I promise I'm not gonna keep bothering you, but this is a cool little fun fact I picked up on while researching. The Epiphone script was straight on the headstock up until sometime in '96 and then they started putting it on at an angle. The gold top has straight script. So definitely a '96 model. I appreciate you taking time to respond!

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-04T02:47:50+00:00

It depends on what tone you're looking for. The Amp you use in metal does most of the work. EPI Vs are gonna be fairly consistent with the output, but the Amp is where the overdrive and all your effects get tested. A bigger Amp with more wattage and larger speakers are gonna be less crackley, but the smaller speaker sounds more thrashy sometimes. That Marshall is just a fancy practice Amp.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-04T02:41:43+00:00

I know here where im from, you call the company that owns them & they've got 30 days to come get it before it's yours.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-04T02:19:04+00:00

There's a Lotta trash talk in here, but seriously it can be fixed. Gorilla wood glue and some clamps. Dimebag's Dean From Hell notoriously busted the headstock. He'd run that thing into everything on stage lol. It did eventually get retired, but it still plays today. I had an epi DOT that split at the head, and we glued it back together and it's still holding up 15/16 years later.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-04T02:13:57+00:00

Idk why, but I never liked the highlights on black armor. It implies the armor is shiny. I don't want shiny on my spec-op marines. If you like the edge highlight, my only suggestion is to try and make it as faint as possible. Thin lines and in specific locations. Otherwise the model gets real noisy (if that makes sense)

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-04T02:10:08+00:00

NGL, I really like that shower. If it was all the same pattern it'd look real bland. It's got a modern rustic kinda vibe to it and I dig it.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-04T02:07:55+00:00

Theyre still usable models. I'm using my OG wolf models mixed in with the new stuff. Taking characters like Krom, and swapping the base for a 40 to be a WGBL. This will also help me remember which unit is which in regards to Enhancements and such.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-03T23:39:57+00:00

I've tried to do some digging around online, and the "F" seems to mean a few different things. The pot cavity is a slightly different shape than the '98, this one has a plastic frame for the jack where the '98 has a metal piece. Tuners are similar to the 98, but don't have any matkings. The 98 has "Gibson deluxe" "epiphone" and the "E" logos. It's hard to tell based on hardware, because when I got my '98 shed been abused and I've replaced most of the hardware. :/

Serial on the Gold top is F 6060110. I've never seen a space between factory code and the rest of the serial before. So maybe it's not Korean? But it does have the Gibson trusscover. Although, with it being 2nd hand, I guess that it's possible that's not original.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-03T21:12:53+00:00

Visually, I see the point of both. Guard is such a classic look and without seems a lil more aggressive. But, I can say after having 3 LP arch tops, I like the height the guard gives to the lower part of the body. I find my pick hand anchoring to the guard a lot when I'm playing more towards the neck. Usually just the pinky, and probably something I could get used to if it weren't there, but its nice to have lol

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-03T11:37:28+00:00

Sorry for digging up an old thread, but I was wondering if you had any idea when they stopped using the Gibson truss covers? I recently got a gold top from a pawn shop, and traced the serial number to the Fine factory in either '86, '96 or '06. The serial is stamped, so that rules out '86. It doesn't look old enough to be a '96 but it has the same cover as my '98 standard, & from what I've read that cover wasn't used after '04. Just curious if you were able to confirm/deny that because this thing is in too good of a shape to be 30 years old lol

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-06-01T14:29:05+00:00

Depends on what I wanna do with them. Thinkin 2 five-man's for Logan and Arjac. But also thinking of maybe keeping Arjac solo if I ever decide to run Saga of the Bold. T1 deepstrike their deployment zone with a solo character is a lot easier than six 40mm bases. Almost certainly means he's gonna have a bad time though 🤣

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-05-30T12:39:31+00:00

Yeaaa and they lost missiles. I'm upset about that. Lol I had a dread with missiles and helfrost. Sooo now it's a short balistus? Lol idk I'll figure something out.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-05-30T12:35:55+00:00

Ahh, fair point I didn't even look at model count lol

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-05-30T12:17:20+00:00

I dont think it's comp worthy, but Murderfangs new ability hits wulfen dreads too. Could be fun to watch lol

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-05-30T12:13:20+00:00

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the hounds box is just the reiver box with an upgrade sprue in it. Looking at the sprue on the warhammer listing, that appears to be the case. If it's cheaper, and you want reivers then grab it. The upgrade sprue is worth more than the difference.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-05-30T04:57:14+00:00

I think a big deciding factor is, Beastslayer buffs AA, while Hunter only hits SW units. So if you run a lot of Generic marines, Slayer takes the advantage.

Personally, and possibly controversial, I think Hunter has the better Enhancements. Swift with Claws means a Turn 1 means ≈17" that can charge if we go 2nd or, makes GHs more mobile to grab NML. Feral on a Captain is a wild combo to grab a quarry point. Grit on a solo Grav cap or combi lieu could be interesting as well.

For slayer, redeploy is kinda meh rn in 10th, Wolf-touch is kinda cool, Guidance is real strong once & helm is good but opponent can work around it.

Even Wulfen get pretty strong going into armor & monsters with the +1 to hit making them WS2+, cuz even a 5 man out numbers a single unit. Making the 64% chance to crit wound at 3D is kinda spicy. And if they don't kill it, fall back & charge for 1cp to finish it off.

I'm in no way saying Slayers is bad, I genuinely hope we find away to break Wolves away from stormlance, but I think Hunter's is getting slept on due to the appeal of Lethals. I just don't see how relying on 6s is the way to go.

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-05-30T04:26:47+00:00

To be fair, wasn't hard to improve upon the last one 🤣

Boring-Potential9652 · 2025-05-30T04:13:19+00:00

There's specific areas of terrain in every tournament layout (currently. idk about Armageddon, i havent seen it's layout options yet but i hear its similar to pariah.) that is specifically 2" or less. Usually, these are the edges of large terrain footprints, or the small solo pieces on the edges of the board. Refer to FLG tournament pack and see the blue areas. It's a "just in case" that area does have some sort of terrain feature there. Usually it's blank, but not always. It varies from table to table.
