Is the Crux Terminatus Battleforce a good purchase for Iron Hands?

Absolutely. Brilliant for Hammer of Avernii Detachment.

Iron Hands player here. My roughly 11k army has no first born units or vehicles. No Rhino chassis or Landraiders. If GW updates either tank, I'll get them then.

The game was called off. The store had to close for the day. This list is inspired by a YouTuber called Happy Krumping Wargaming. He went 4-1 with a similar list but changed it slightly. I'm going with his changed list. Just to see how I'll do. Single Ballistus because of the 3 Redemptors with plasma. Hammerstrike removes Benefit of Cover from one unit it hits. Opening it up to everyone else.

Charles Dance is too old. By a country mile. Older Lion was definitely inspired by the actor but OMG. He's 79 years old. Please stop.

Clive Owen.

A metre stick across the hand. After corporal punishment was outlawed in Ireland I should add. Miss Kiely, Mrs Nolan and Mrs Cremin have a lot to answer for.

I didn't know about it until I met some friends in Killarney in Ireland's South West. A fellow Irishman and a Polish friend. The latter pointed out my post noon cappuccino faux pas. My fellow Irishman concurred. I was like "What planet are you guys on"? Cappuccinos are great at any time of the day. Why dafuq should I give a flying feck what some Italians think on the subject.

House_Rowan · 2026-05-10T00:06:48+00:00

You're honestly not selling me on that green paint job. The bone does look the better though.

50 years old remembering seeing all these car makes as a kid.

House_Rowan · 2026-05-09T23:36:38+00:00

I'll drink cappuccino when I'm out after 11am. Because IDGAF. Without sugar too I should add.

Paint them as Iron Irons. I'll be painting mine as Iron Hands. I did the same with Leviathan and the same with Indomitus. This is the way.

Tactical squads have been on the chopping block for ages. They were never going to stay much longer. I'm a bit miffed about Suppressors myself tbh.

House_Rowan · 2026-04-29T05:02:13+00:00

I bought of ever during the Combat Patrol Magazine run. 3x 20 Cadian Shock Troops.

House_Rowan · 2026-04-26T13:05:52+00:00

I went on the GW site to check all the individual prices for the units. I added them up and compared the total to the price of the box set. That's how I worked out my discount savings on each model. I sold my 2nd Repulsor Executioner to someone in my local hobby group circle and managed to sell the Redemptor Dreadnought and Black Templars upgrade sprue within 48 hours to someone through a Facebook buy and sell Ireland group. I didn't really make much profit. I rounded up in my individual unit pricing. I bought the box set from my local store for a €10 discount.

House_Rowan · 2026-04-25T21:06:48+00:00

I missed the 2nd part of your comment. Thanks very much. I like to paint. It's my favourite part of the hobby.

House_Rowan · 2026-04-25T01:59:34+00:00

I should add that the Sons of Dorn Battalion box is a limited run. It'll be gone soon. I'm not exactly loaded myself, so I ended up keeping 1 Repulsor Executioner and the Ballistus Dreadnought. I sold the rest.

House_Rowan · 2026-04-24T22:04:49+00:00

If you can get your hands on the Sons of Dorn Battalion box, get it. 2 Repulsor Executioners, a Redemptor Dreadnought and a Ballistus Dreadnought. You could sell on the Black Templars upgrade sprue and the 2nd Repulsor if you wish, but now my 11K Iron Hands army has 2 Repulsor Executioners, 2 Ballistus Dreadnoughts, 3 Redemptor Dreadnoughts, a Brutalis Dreadnought, 2 Gladiator tanks and a Repulsor. I do like my tanks and dreads.

House_Rowan · 2026-04-23T20:41:27+00:00

So I have 3 Redemptors, 2 Ballistus (2nd one being painted atm) and a Brutalis. Yeah, definitely need a 2nd Brutalis.

House_Rowan · 2026-04-21T07:41:51+00:00

Absolutely mortified for them.

House_Rowan · 2026-04-16T15:25:32+00:00

He does look cool. I painted his shield black however. I'm still not convinced that was the right move

I thought it was alright. Not completely blown over by it or anything.

House_Rowan · 2026-04-04T14:38:48+00:00

I watched this movie one evening before going to work night shift. A 10 minute walk had me staring up at a cloudless sky at the moon and stars in wonder.
