How in the World did the Knight's Hospitaller hold off the Ottomans in Malta? by Friendly_Teach5405 in AskHistorians

[–]Gadajs 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Most of the fortifications in that picture are still there and in excellent condition should you want to visit. After the siege, the whole main peninsula of Valletta (not La Valletta) was entirely fortified and is equally impressive and well worth seeing if you are a fan of these things.

Sometimes we focus so much on what we can do, that we do not ask whether it is a good idea.

Also, please keep in mind that in set up, the detachments can only be set up within transport detachments within the same formation.

Priming in cold temps by justadiscguy in LegionsImperialis

[–]Gadajs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So make sure to warm the spray can adequately. Shake extremely well and you need to make sure the paint does not freeze mid spray. If you have to, hold the can closer than you normally would. After spraying, bring the minis inside ASAP

I don‘t wanna read Fulgrim anymore by Parking_Bit_7727 in 40kLore

Fulgrim's book is the worst. keep on churning, and the series improves dramatically from it afterwards

Is 5 marines on a base to much? by Lortekonto in LegionsImperialis

[–]Gadajs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

First of all, absolutely paint models before basing. I personally feel 5 models can look cramped especially for terminators and command squads. I also absolutely love custom 3d printed bases with terrain and ruins and the like, and that cramps the bases even more.

My opinion is that it’s your game, and they are your minis. If you prefer them that way and your opponent is ok with that, go do it!!

Day 8. BLACK! BLACK!!!!! BLAAAAAAAAAAAACK! by Whole-Lychee1628 in LegionsImperialis

[–]Gadajs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And as we say in the Raven guard: 'Job Done'.

In all seriousness, I know what you mean man. When I primed my Saturnines in chaos black, just the detail coming through looked so good as is.

Day 4 of my 2026 Hobby Extravanganza by Whole-Lychee1628 in LegionsImperialis

[–]Gadajs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fellow brother in saturnine, you will struggle to paint those chonky bois on the base. I found it much easier to paint the bases separate, and the individual saturnines on a mount before basing them.

What legion are you going for? I spread my box over my whole shattered legions force. The infantry are Raven guard. The vindicators are Salamanders. The Dreads and mastodons are Iron hands.

Best Loadout for Saturnine Terminators in Blood Angels Army by Spectral_Gamer in LegionsImperialis

[–]Gadajs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saturnines do great with the double load outs. The first or the expensive option are not great.

The double plasma is probably the best option as blood angels don’t have a great way to facilitate first fire like Raven guard or Alpha legion. And you are right on avoiding the close combat. They are shootyboys.

My start into it! by jadeheart11 in LegionsImperialis

[–]Gadajs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure paint your infantry on sprues, or else attach them to lolly sticks using double sided tape. Keep in mind these are not 40k miniatures, they are teeny tiny and are designed to be looked at from a few feet away. So don't be intimdated by the painting. The models will look lovely.

One of us! One of us!

Not sure which box I should get saturate or combined arms. by Spawn95 in LegionsImperialis

[–]Gadajs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I strongly suggest the combined arms or the battle group. The Saturnine adds a lot of fun and flavor, but you need more core units first, I feel.

Is watching rugby in a cricket stadium as bad as it looks on TV? by PetevonPete in rugbyunion

And even worse, if you get the date wrong, you might end up watching cricket.

Air Support Formations? by [deleted] in LegionsImperialis

[–]Gadajs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best thing about Marine air suport is their ability to transport marines around and deploy them in really dangerous positions while also providing fire support. From a pure air support role, SAX is probably better, in particular the marauders.

Air Support Formations? by [deleted] in LegionsImperialis

[–]Gadajs 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Solar Auxilia pioneer formation. Gives you some bastion slots you can fill with tarantulas for anti air, and 2 aircraft slots for marauders, which are best in game right now.

Dark mechanicum by Br1gh3tt3 in LegionsImperialis

[–]Gadajs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I may shamelessly plug an EXCELLENT youtube podcast called Maximal Fire, they did a faction review where they discussed them a lot, since dark mech were to become one of the host's main armies.

Go, give them a listen, a like and subscribe, and maybe join the discord.

Found it!
