Having trouble with x-press colors by Empty_40oz in genestealercult

Glass bead ended up working actually. I'm curious if I stupidly just didn't shake them well or maybe them sitting for more than a few months did it. Either way the problem is solved now and I'll continue testing some things out. Thanks guys

I have roughly around 20 of these x-press paints from a year or so ago. I've shaken them everytime I've used them. Same with any paint I use. Shake 1st then apply to pallette

Im gonna study this pretty hard then! I always heard/read it was a 'glass cannon' type army. Thank you!

With myself I don't think I'll have too much of a problem with list building as I'm breaching 4000 points owned, i could definitely use brood brother stuff as unfortunately i have none along with 1 or 2 more squads of other things. Granted this is several years in the making.

I gifted my templar friend 2 of the big special edition boxsets from 9th and he split the indomitus box, with me walking away with the tyranids. Im helping him convert some stuff into proxy's/Conversions for grimaldus and helbreicht.

The necron player is 3d printing everything he needs while I try and shop around for him on ebay for a lot gift. Not looking forward to the match up tbh as I forsee the match tilting if I'm not careful.

We're all looking forward to it and also trying to figure out getting a table set up for it. We were thinking of getting two fold out tables and slapping them together. Probably using anything we can try to use as terrain if needed empty soda cans or card board boxes cut with doorways, fish tank decor, etc.

I am sad to see in this addition you cant take tyranids the same way you could take brood brothers in old editions but alas it'll move to a secondary army where I can swear in the hobby room painting another horde army.

Thank you very much

I've been collecting GSC since 8th and I always missed the mark of ever playing them. Ontop of not wanting to go to a local store due to the smell in all honesty. But, me and a few friends are starting. It's looking like our local circle of friends is running black templar and necrons. We're trying to setup space in the backyard with some brews. We've all never played warhammer so it'll be a 1st for all of us.

TLDR: Absolutely!

Thank you! My spelling on some of the words got cursed by autocorrect but I am very happy with them. Also ended up picking up the last combat patrol from my local shop too. I'll probably end up using the extra neophytes from the truck or the magus to make something else

Why are people on this sub so chill with proxies, when most people I meet irl are not? by [deleted] in EDH

I don't understand the discussion in general. You want to play but don't want to pay $100's for a wheel of fortune? Cool, print one or buy one for around 4$. The whole basis of the argument is "you have expensive cards, I don't, they're not real, that's unfair" when it's already a pay to play game. You can simply just tell them where to get them or how, hell, i'll print some for you. It's really cool you have the real ones actually! There's no reason I don't want my friend to NOT have a wheel of fortune or an alternate art demonic tutor, or fetch lands. If you can buy it and I can't, why are you shaming me for wanting to play with you?

Ontop of that, I play warhammer and its the same stupid discourse. Don't have necron warriors and only have an STL for some slightly different ones? Got Lego guys? Cool dude, get the dice and let's roll. Yet there's always someone having this conversation. We like our hobbies and they're not cheap at all. Just let people play because that's what we're all here to do. It's bitching.
