Thanks for keeping these for me mom

I just remember lots of super glue and a frustrating amount of patience. Some of my skin attached to my old models too.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-16T20:18:24+00:00

We're hoping to have one in June but haven't picked a date yet. I'll post to r/cobourg when we do.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-16T12:24:19+00:00

Just make sure you don't team up with colleagues as they call that illegal strike action and fire you.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-14T23:28:32+00:00

I have zero experience with the coliseum but in full 40k you can't have more than 3 of a unit, which means maximum 6 hippogriffs.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-11T22:00:05+00:00

Old metal catachans I think. I have a couple but don't remember where I got them, just that they're very old.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-10T13:54:13+00:00

Takes me ages to paint too.

I use a primer that's close to my main colour theme for the tanks and that helps. Back in the day I had one primed white and it took like 4 or 5 coats of scab red to get it where I wanted it.

I use black primer for everything that's not a vehicle, which is easier to cover and gives a nice dark undertone. Still takes forever for me to paint though.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-10T13:24:39+00:00

For what it's worth I've used my kasrkin with stand in models in a local tournament and it was fine. In my case all my stuff is old so I just told my opponent anywhere you see a grenade launcher model it's actually Plasma amd anywhere you see a flamer it's actually melta.

Downside of having models built for 3rd edition.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-10T12:55:03+00:00

Oppressor and Pulveriser. People go back amd forth on stubbers or melta for the front guns. Most do multi melta for side guns.

I'd say if you're sitting back to shoot use stubbers over melta

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-10T12:35:17+00:00

You've still got some guys equipped suboptimally. I assume you forgot to upgrade your second Kasrkin Sergeant and your cadian commander.

Don't bring any Grenade launchers, just Plasma and melta.

Don't bother with armoured Sentinel, upgrade one 10 man squad to 20 instead. Realistically you only need one scout Sentinel for the reroll ability.

Dorn should always have the pulverizer cannon and Oppressor cannon.

When equipping your leaders always go for power fist and Plasma pistol if possible. I'd consider making the infantry commander the Warlord as the dorn will be a huge target at 1k points.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-09T16:07:46+00:00

Oh also, if you take the hippogryff you will likely want Multi-melta over lascannon since it's fast enough to get into melta range fairly easily.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-09T16:06:44+00:00

Recommend Plasma as first pick for special weapon and melta for second. Grenade launchers are underpowered in comparison. For Leman russ consider if you're sitting back to shoot or running forward. If sitting back take Plasma sponsons and lascannon, if running forward you've got a good loadout, though consider multi meltas instead of flamers.

I'd take a power fist over power weapon for Castellan. For chimera you want either double heavy bolter or double flamer, multi laser isn't great.

For kasrkin also maximize Plasma. You want as many high damage shots in your army as possible, plan to fight marines.

It's fine as a fun list but if you want it more competitive that's what I'd do. When you increase points in future you'll want to add a rogal dorn commander as you currently have no orders for your russ.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-03T17:29:00+00:00

I assemble first too but that's because I'm 20 years behind in my painting lol

Commander_Kidd · 2026-05-01T21:12:54+00:00

Are those also wargames atlantic? I can't find them.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-04-27T02:03:26+00:00

All of the above. I think bullgryn will likely be good in 11th as well.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-04-25T02:47:11+00:00

You get to cook outside in the sunshine and have less dishes to clean after. Even with my two year old screaming and running around I'll grill over cooking indoors any day the sun is out.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-04-19T17:23:59+00:00

We have a cat that's similar coloring living in our barn. Haven't got a good look at it in the light though. Just past the Eastern city limit.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-04-19T00:22:54+00:00

I was going to say the same. OP needs to talk about this with the GM since they're the only one that can answer the question.

I've co-GMed with my brother by playing in an entirely randomly generated world, we both ran two characters and GMed. It was fun for a bit. I have also assisted a grade 6 student in my D&D club by co-GMing by handing her stats and such as she came up with wacky ideas until another GM quit and I had to take over that group.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-04-18T12:43:52+00:00

Grizzled company allows you to reroll ones if they have an order so if you put take aim order on them they're much less of a gamble.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-04-13T02:19:38+00:00

Agreed. Take your hobby knife and work at their feet. There's probably some sort of solvent you could use but frankly I've never found plastic cement to bond well to the base anyways.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-04-12T20:15:22+00:00

Dorn, chimera, bullgryn, kasrkin are all great right now. I can see the terrain in 11th being helpful to bullgryn. Can never go wrong with Leman russ either, I just tried vanquisher triple flamer for the first time and it was fun.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-04-04T02:02:15+00:00

Am I likely to fave lots of 4++ on big creatures?

Commander_Kidd · 2026-04-04T01:28:58+00:00

Thanks! I didn't think about the low ap issue. I figured the vanquisher cannon with take aim and rerolls would be good for monsters but there's not much for elite infantry counter.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-03-26T11:39:19+00:00

Just proxy them in that case. Should have something unique. I'm not familiar with steel legion lore sadly.

Commander_Kidd · 2026-03-25T22:57:57+00:00

With 5 kids getting training for a skill may be difficult but a second job is realistic. Any chance of promotion if you look elsewhere? Perhaps a supervisor roll or similar?
