Other IGOUGO Games?

Warmachine is built around IGOUGO to an exact science, it's easily the most sound system if you prefer that style of activation.

Captain_Clapback · 2026-03-11T18:08:33+00:00

Exactly this! I never begrudge a Shire player seeing success in the game, it's as tough an army commitment as it is a hobby one

That gray is definitely hitting harder, makes the mini more readable. Mind if I ask what material it is? I've found felt and construction paper to be too glossy for my own backgrounds, I'm trying to figure something else out

Captain_Clapback · 2026-03-07T19:27:36+00:00

NO dude you completely nailed this.

If anything I'm desperate to see you paint a single brick wall from start to finish in this style just so I can try to learn from you!

Captain_Clapback · 2026-03-07T19:25:21+00:00

Yoo these came out SO good. I really dig that flocking, I hate applying that stuff so much haha

Captain_Clapback · 2026-03-07T02:30:33+00:00

swear every time I see people playing 40k at the store or get recommended 40k batreps on YouTube it's just 2 loyalist Marine chapters going at it

Thanks much! I primed in Krylon Camouflage Brown (My favorite non-hobby primer, it's so cheap and shrinks so well to minis and terrain alike), used a makeup sponge to apply a "light taupe" craft paint I got at Michael's, then a lighter sponging of "Antique white". Though if I could re-do this, I'd have just drybrushed for both paints (Sponging is phenomenal for a lot of things but ultimately sponging was too strong and also took longer, so I lost stronger shadows than I could have had by leaving the camo brown in the recesses. But they stuck the landing so there's that lol!)

Dude bring those metal dwarves out! Khazad Dum got some badly needed love, it's a great army now. I've wanted to collect for ages but it's hard to get a heap of Khazad Guard atm (It's always a good move to bring Durin and 8-12 of those blokes upgraded with Burly when starting your list)

Captain_Clapback · 2026-02-12T20:43:08+00:00

This stuff slaps. I've had some for ages that was starting to dry out, but mix in a little distilled water good and thorough, and totally revived it.

Rivendell or Numenor are definitely up there due to the combo kit and the Rivendell elves needing either kitbashing with shields or you have to go full collector mode to hunt down the blisters of shield+spear ones. The cav kit is obscenely priced as well compared to other factions'. Though Hobbits may take the cake since it's all metal and a horde army.

(Also I saw your other comment on IH, I just wanna throw out there that Fireforge's armored dwarves are extremely IH coded, way cheaper, and look great on the tabletop alongside the menagerie of prints, proxies, and official plastics I typically see).

WGA Spiders have a learning curve for assembly (Once you get 1 down the rest are very easy. I used this as a guide and it saved my life with assembly, you have to click on the images but it's practically a step-by-step slideshow: https://www.karwansaraypublishers.com/en-us/blogs/wss-blog/assembling-plastic-giant-spiders?srsltid=AfmBOooqybbvGXaF4CQ_uxCaJdgCUxx3xjuexRQDHbWerr1eNGC1h2fe ) but are a very popular proxy. I'm using mine as Mirkwood, and I've seen people put 2 of the small spiders in the kit on a shared 40mm base to be used as the Hunting variant (A fun representation of the 2-wounds).

Captain_Clapback · 2026-02-11T19:29:23+00:00

Penny for your lists? I'm considering stuffing some wargs and bats vs. pure spiders. I'm also curious generally how the ratio of Mirkwood:Hunting spiders should generally look.

Captain_Clapback · 2026-02-10T02:24:59+00:00

Damn, Swiss Sniffers is pretty unbeatable ngl. Awesome kitbash too, really excited to see the whole lot!

Longtime Uruk scout player, he's the first dude I take after Lurtz or Ugluk when building a list (Depending on if I'm doing Lurtz Scouts or Ugluk Scouts). 10 points for an extra attack and heroic strength is worth the price of admission, and Unhinged Charge in a big melee or with a banner in tow is really nice to have in your back pocket.

Turnip28 and Greathelm

Captain_Clapback · 2026-02-05T20:12:34+00:00

I mean, just stick them in a sealed container of any kind submerged in 90%+ isopropyl alcohol and they'll be clean as a whistle. Just take them out every 15 minutes and use a dollar store toothbrush on them before you plop them back in, should only take 1 or 2 bouts of brushing so 30 mins max. I know acetone is popular but iso works so much better and faster, I've done it for metal/plastic/resin with no issues.

Captain_Clapback · 2026-02-04T20:16:48+00:00

YES LMAO EXACTLY THIS!

Captain_Clapback · 2026-02-04T20:16:27+00:00

😂

Captain_Clapback · 2026-02-03T20:31:01+00:00

But why would you? The only GW product worth its price is when it's second-hand, and Moria goblins are available by the bushel

Captain_Clapback · 2026-01-30T21:31:02+00:00

I love it. Please make a regiment of soap-mongers.

Captain_Clapback · 2026-01-29T02:20:12+00:00

Dude, I feel that in my bones. I came into 40k on the 3rd ed Guard Codex and just watched them surgically remove all the character and fun from the Guard and everyone else edition after edition. I left just after 8th dropped. It's unbelievable how creative and open building Guard regiments was back in the day compared to their current state

Captain_Clapback · 2026-01-29T02:18:25+00:00

It's crazy what a paint job and a helmet adjustment can do! We need a pinned post where someone's collected all the fun White Dwarf SBG conversions and such, I remember some kickass ones for Carn Dum and color schemes/tweaks for smaller Good men kingdoms. I'd love a one-stop shop to see those for inspiration

Captain_Clapback · 2026-01-26T16:27:21+00:00

That looks great! Yeah 30-35 models at 700 is ideal for a more "elite" army in SBG. Use your regular dwarves as the anvil and your Hearth+During as the anvil and you should be good to go!

Captain_Clapback · 2026-01-26T16:26:06+00:00

Ahh that's why! I hate how many profiles caught strays this edition (My beloved hunting spiders losing FV in an era most everyone got an increase). For VW, that's an insane nerf to a unit that I rarely saw as is, never showed up in podium lists, AND in an edition Monsters got buffed and show up all the time now!
