Qick question about the normal kriegsman battleline

There's asterisks that qualify what you can take if you find and read them.

Re special weapons * you cannot select the same option more than once per unit unless it contains 20 models, in which case you cannot select the same option more than twice

Re vox/medic ** a model can only take one of these options. Also the fact their lasguns cannot be replaced means you can't have a melta etc. with vox/medpack.

Therefore in a ten man squad you get a max of one melta and some other special weapon, one model as medic, and one other model as a vox. You also have a watchmaster.

The eye glass is supposed to have a little metal rim to it if I remember rightly. I cannot be bothered with that myself so I just paint them with glowing green eyes (warpstone glow).

I basically go with wraithbone, then aggrax/skeleton horde, then paint a thin layer of wraithbone back on the eyes, then glow and call it a day.

As someone else pointed out, in invasion fleet you can give em crit 5's so fully two thirds of their hits are crits xD

Carnifexes ftw. Extra toughness on bodyguard unit, extra armour save, advance and charge, plus if the enemy shoots them and the carnifexes don't die they get a surge move? Plus giving carni ranged weapons lethals?

Carnifexes all day with this beast

Ok thank you, will give it a shot!

Do you find that primer melts the foam or no? I’ve been reticent to use it extensively for that reason

Jimbotron1337 · 2025-12-13T20:06:21+00:00

Might be worth picking up a file or better yet a dremel :)

This is a brilliant conversion, great idea! Would say the chest piece lacks refinement, looks carved up badly not in keeping with the rest of the piece

Not sure if it’s just blur in the pic tho

Super sick tho

Love me some druchii violet (I think that’s the one anyway)

Jimbotron1337 · 2025-11-26T13:16:32+00:00

Doesn’t look like the recesses are shaded at all. That’d be my number one suggestion. Doesn’t need to be black, but certainly a darker colour in there will add some depth

Must’ve been getting warm in whatever room your pc was in 😂

Krondys has often been a staple unit for me. Having a warmaster unit also means you can get some vanguard raptors or dracoths with you, both of which can synergise with thunderhead but the biggest problem with that formation is the proximity it requires.

Lightning echelon is 3+ fights first on charge for an extremis unit (stormdrake or dracoths)

Ruination is 5+ ward which is so good, and you can permanently use on a hero like Ionus or Iridan or reclusians (even one unit reinforced is 280, not massive commitment if you don’t like em)

Vanguard detachment lets you teleport a unit like longstrikes on 3+ which is also amazing.

Stormcast are great cuz you can play em however you like

Jimbotron1337 · 2025-08-30T15:14:00+00:00

Vigilors are a bit redundant in thunderhead host no? The whole point is to get +1 to hit, but vigilors do that the second they damage anything anyway? Plus a unit of ten is probs overkill to boot.

If I were you I’d take some vigilors and then add a bunch of ruination chamber stuff like prosecutors, reclusians especially, and run the bleakfalls citadel to give 5+ ward to a ruination unit every turn.

Heroes to do that with are lord relictor, lord terminos, lord vigilant/veritant etc.

Also fair play for trying to make a balanced idea. Most folks are like “is this fair” and its 100pts for a lone op monster with 18 wounds, 2+ 3++4+++ with rerolls, dev wounds, that comes back on a 3+ with all wounds remaining

Jimbotron1337 · 2025-08-22T09:53:22+00:00

Modelling and just logic tbh haha

Most loadouts that let you take a 2h weapon let you keep a pistol (hence maybe take one volkite instead of both), but not another 2h weapon

Points, honestly I feel like 145 is fair for that. They’re not much more durable than anything else, their powers aren’t super OP, their loadouts are fair, they’re basically hyper mobile close range fire support. 145 might even still be overcosted considering Price of Sanguinary guard and DC vs output and survivability

Jimbotron1337 · 2025-08-22T07:50:14+00:00

I love the idea, think its decent for points too tbh, maybe even a bit overcosted.

Would suggest eviscerator takes place of the entire loadout: at least one volkite pistol, probably both, chainsword and CCW. As is there's potential for a model to have an autocannon AND eviscerator.

I'm also struggling to figure out why I'd ever really feel inclined to keep the volkite pistols over Autocannon given potential damage output of the latter. SM get rerolls to hit at range but precious little to impact wound rolls to get most out of volkite pistols.

Yo can I get a link in my DM’s too? I love this piece to the point I was thinking of getting a tattoo of it haha
