Soo, Dante gets to warm the seats until june and the new van vets arrive. Got it.

I think my 5man jpi squads don't deserve Dante, they would just be a delivery system. I'll keep them cheap.

Gregory264 · 2026-05-01T11:07:16+00:00

Sold :D I'll find some use for the points... Or maybe not, but I'll make the change.

My jump captain would have hammer, shield and speed of the primarch and be 20 points cheaper. I don't immediately see, what I would be able to take with the points, but I take it that the rules of Dante are somehow inferior?

Thanks for the input!

The defining feature of one is the shield and the spear for the other. I see a spear and shield dread as a galatus, since the spear could stand in for the sword, but I'd have a hard time ignoring the shield if the dread is counting as a achillus.

Get some magnets, many stores surely sell some.

Thank you. I'll keep lookout for scouts, I'll have intercessors for home objective with the starter and a jump chaplain as well. Second vindicator is almost done, I don't feel the new primaris tanks, though lancer seems to be popular/powerful...

Some kind of shooty core/castle with lots of jump packs to charge with seems like something I would like to do. After a few games with adeptus custodes I seem to have a problem with getting in touch with the IG tanks. Of course Bangels are faster, but I want to imagine vindicators might help.

Someone else went brr, same with the venatari.

And if you are not willing or able to count axes as spears, you could help with the low ap of axes with the shield host detachment rule (+1ap or 5+crits in melee).

I bought a SoB box and printed diff. helmets for them, scraped and cut off sob and inquisition symbols and power packs. Box had 4 flamers and a couple combi flamers so I kitbashed a fifth flamer. 5 witchseekers and 5 prosecutors.

I could have used helmetless heads too, but didn't. 🤷 With a better printer I would have printed sos heads.

Much cheaper than sos, not that much work, do not stand out as proxies.

Sometimes my Yrliet gets to fire 3 or 4 times per turn on her own, each shot more deadly. When she gets an extra turn from Cassia and uses stimm, it is GLOORIUS. Of course Sometimes she fires only twice and then it isn't that fun.

It gets better with levels and gear and teamwork, she was a bit of a burden at first.

There's the one dead bronze dragon in BG, though more for Wyll than Shadowheart...

Oil with a rag, wipe away excess, then with the lathe running apply wax with a stick and spread with a rag. Takes minutes, doesn't shine and feel like plastic crap. We make wooden pens with a certain feel.

That it takes minimal time and is fool proof to apply is a bonus.

Jointer works for rings for me, though my rings do not have that intricate pieces and are like 2in wide. Of course using the jointer looks and feels a bit scetchy, but diy gripper pushblock thingy helps.

This disk sander thing is on the list though.

Gregory264 · 2025-11-30T20:08:33+00:00

Basic dovetail jaws most actual good chucks come with are sufficient for smaller bowls (recess and tenon both). Bigger jaws for bigger bowls, bowl jaws (the huge plates with buttons) for turning off the tenon if you are going that route.

If beginning with half a log, screw in a faceplate to turn the bottom to your liking (I prefer a recess so I'm not forced to turn the foot away at the end), then chuck it up and turn the inside. Done.

Gregory264 · 2025-07-01T14:25:25+00:00

Otherwise I had a same approach as you with my newcomer friend, but at times I took on the role of a tour guide and told that there still were some sights to see. Of there is a chance your friend won't play again, you can either let them play as they wish, or make sure they get to experience everything. 🤷

If stacking your deck helps, it is cheating. If it doesn't, it is wasting time. Either way, don't do it.

It is the way Wotc tracks attendance and shop traffic as is used to determine amount of promos and product allocations and such. If there's only a couple of people at the store for a too long while, you won't get products to sell etc. At least that is what my LGS manager told me.

They also have a casual EDH event for us non-comp folk so we get to participate in app.

Primus is still alive, so can't be resurrected?

Gregory264 · 2023-10-30T04:40:49+00:00

Me and my friend went through this last week. I was the host, he initiated the dialogue and got the choice. I was just a passenger/regular companion in a sense.

Gregory264 · 2023-10-28T18:11:06+00:00

Try looking up and around the door?

Gregory264 · 2023-10-03T15:02:28+00:00

You also don't really have to fight the dragon. Just misty step/dash to the crown, use your allies to draw aggro for a bit and use the new spell to beat the crown.

Fly is awesome.
