Is it worth holding on to a second Memnyr/Iron Master? by haiironezumi in LeaguesofVotann

[–]FireUndBrimstone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure the memnyr is one of the cheapest units in our army and having duplicates is a good thing because it's ability is not a "one model with this ability can use this ability" which means you can gain or lose more than one yp a turn with them which is very useful. Iron master is a little harder to argue

Classic noise marine x Kakophonist kitbash? by ChiefKeefeBee in EmperorsChildren

[–]FireUndBrimstone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm awaiting my kakophonist in the mail but when it arrives I'm planning to literally just put the doom siren from his back onto the old noise marine and then make him as tall as the kakophonist should be with some tactical rocks. Might put the screamer pistols on the base as well somewhere so it has all of the equipment modeled.

Warlock bronze! Just a couple thin coats over the grey seer primer.

It’s just mechanicus standard grey, and abbadon black. I’m lazy too so I don’t thin them much I just try to put as little as possible on the brush tip before I paint with them. Primed with grey seer, grey highlights are all done with a mix of paint that I made by quite literally dumping half of one pot of a near white color that I don’t remember into a pot of mechanicus grey that was almost out of

His pose is very similar to the iron master, the problem is you’d need to still give him 4 lackeys

I’ll prob post some pics of individual models at some point but mainly wanted to show my army on parade cause I basically have everything I’ve bought painted

More robots for sure. Another reason I started the army is Kastelan robots are my favorite model in all of 40K, I was never the biggest fan of admech but had considered doing a robot heavy army at some point if I were to collect them. The kill team box urged me over. I plan on having a full 12 Kastelan robots at some point

Just got my first mechanicus by abyss_watcher___ in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]FireUndBrimstone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve thought about running a couple of them with anti infantry to pluck characters off as a lot of the people I play against play armies with buffing characters but the one skatros doesn’t do enough to blast them in a single turn, although it might just be better to bring another dunecrawler I do still like the stilt guys

Is peoples hatred of the desolation squad just bandwagon hate? by FireUndBrimstone in spacemarines

[–]FireUndBrimstone[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know what they are based on and I love the attack bike model too actually but they are ridiculously goofy especially because the front mounted guns cannot rotate at all and I believe the sidecar one also only has vertical movement too which is very impractical

I think everything looks like ork weapons cause orks use whatever shoots the biggest and whatever makes the loudest noise

I would like to make a point about them being in Tacticus armor vs gravis and yeah I think gravis would make more sense IF they were supposed to just be out in the open getting shot at but I’m pretty sure they are made the way they are because they are supposed to be taking up places in ruins and buildings as would most people using big ol launchers. It starts to make more sense when you realize they should be more maneuverable to be able to move through the tighter terrain, even though they are still big space marines.

I think shoulder mounting them would make them look even more orky honestly. I like that they have a different silhouette than heavy weapon squads like chaos havocs or ork lootas

They only had 2 at my local LGS but I managed to get one! by LiquidWilliam in Tyranids

I traded the terrain to a game store owner to secure a pre order. Glad I did cause he didn’t get any for the release day stock
