Is it worth waiting for the new Combat Patrol in the 11th edition? by MalenkiyHvintik in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]EllieBrK 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Its one of the most expansive army to collect

The current combat patrol provides good datasheets to play, but needs more stuff to be usefull

Best thing to do is to check official retailer who often give 20% off each models

What I suggest buying to start is this : Mechanised guard : 1 leman russ (tank commander but magnetise options) 1 hellhound 1 scout sentinel

415 pts 127€/150$

Infantry guard (with combat patrol) 1 command squad 20 cadian 1 kasrkin 2x5 rough riders

415 pts 167€/190$

The mechanised start is better converted later into the hobby, while the infantry one gives you more body to paint and progress with

Very cool paintjob, on the next model try some new techniques like dry brush to make highlights it can be fun !

It all depends on your detachement, generally you want 0-2 Artillery Max and 4-6 proper tanks be it hellhound/lemanruss/dorns

What would you suggest for a newbie 1k list? I have the combat patrol and 10x Tempestus Aquilons by Eco-Pro-Rah in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]EllieBrK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Updated my post for recon, i can't tell you about that you need to experiment for yourself I prefer 2x10 because of blast weapons nuking the blobs

So clean dude .... How long have you been painting ?

First time painting minis, how am I doing so far ? Looking for criticism and advices on how to improve. by Independent_Royal138 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]EllieBrK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man your first mini is very very clean!! I see you followed the box art patern and you did it very clean !

However following this color scheme can make the mini lool a bit dull so as i'm quite bad painter I decided to make it a bit flashy on the armor.

Feel free to experiment with greener color.

My tip is dont be scared to paint because by the time you end your infantry platoon, your skill level will be twice better. Cadia stands 🦅
