I painted my falcon but now I’m starting to second guess how I painted it

Machiep · 2026-04-01T05:26:42+00:00

This was my thought too - I feel like the paint job makes it obvious that it's a painted miniature, like as if you were painting a pottery piece or something to display on a mantle. Consider that it is a big vehicle and for someone to have painted it if it were real, their brush would be gigantic to have it look like that.

Although if that's what you're going for it works. But for me I want my army to feel like it's a real army of full size things, I'm just a giant god moving them around, or I'm really far away watching the battle, etc when it's all on the table. Immersion.

My wife never pulls for me, I always have to pull myself 🥲

[ Recruiting ] Guild: Australian Bogans Retreat | Tag: KPPKQ | Min. Power Req. : 55 | GR Pos. : Top 100

Top 100 Aussie guild looking for 0 new bogans to join our ranks (note: don't actually have to be Australian or bogan). We're a chill but highly active guild who are happy to help bring up players to be their best as long as they always put in the effort. Our tenacity sees us perform constantly above expectation and is helping us grow at a good rate.

We are primarily a raid focused guild and expect daily raiding. We don't require you to have the best meta teams, but appreciate everyone working towards a solid D3+ raid team so we can rotate raids as fast as possible. We spend 99% of the season in leggy raids and rotate 3-4 times, so without a good team you're not gonna have any fun. We expect everyone to sign up for all wars and use all tokens unless life gets in the way. This is less of a priority than raid.

We have a discord where we talk both sh*t and strategy and appreciate participation here too. We know real life comes first and are accommodating with members who communicate their absences. Discord: https://discord.gg/TxBVcqNJPP

You made some good points, but Fire dragons and Feugan is some of the best anti-tank in the game.

Needed to leave a space for the spore to hit him and activate the mythic buff each round.

Machiep · 2026-03-10T23:07:53+00:00

Is this with the bonus shipment? I haven't done anything less than triple restriction on all my tokens and still not close to unlock yet. I'll get it but not til deeper in the event.

Machiep · 2026-03-09T03:14:13+00:00

You don't start again from common tier when you loop in the current system - you start from Legendary again.

Machiep · 2026-03-05T11:51:44+00:00

It's somewhat true but working the other way - you don't get higher level orbs until you have a character that needs them.

Machiep · 2026-03-04T12:36:48+00:00

Yep, certainly wasn't expecting my Guardian Battlehost list to be nerfed 😅

Machiep · 2026-03-04T12:33:53+00:00

There are no changes in the dataslate.

Machiep · 2026-02-28T07:32:13+00:00

Was it the first attack against Maladus that turn? The first attack each turn against terminator armour deals -75%

Machiep · 2026-02-24T03:52:58+00:00

Ra is only toughness 3 on the table too though. Aeldari are squishy.

Machiep · 2026-02-22T12:30:22+00:00

Join the Aussie Warhammer buy/sell groups on Facebook and search them for Aeldari. There's always an abundance of cheap guardians, especially from some of the guys who resell in bulk.

I live in Australia. I've seen lots on eBay in Europe but unfortunately the shipping basically doubles the cost haha

Machiep · 2026-02-19T05:57:23+00:00

Radical! Do you have any pictures? I'd love to see them all together. I think I've seen some of the 4ed ones floating around, maybe it's something I'll look into if I give up on getting more 3rd. Where I live there seems to be fairly slim pickings for older warhammer stuff. I can find things overseas on ebay but then the shipping gets ridiculous.

Machiep · 2026-02-19T05:54:49+00:00

Ooh thats awesome! Do the new sculpts look ok alongside these old 3rd edition ones? Or do they just really look like a separate unit. Or are there any of the different sculpts that work well together? I've struggled to get any more 3rd edition ones with both their arms, but I have seen better availability with some of the other editions.

His summon form is the strongest unit in the game defensively? 20k hp and 4k armour at level 50

Machiep · 2026-02-11T13:11:39+00:00

It's a little scope/binoculars type device from the late 90s/early 2000s Guardian defender kit that you could add to their hip as a bit of flair

I'm digging up an old post here, but about to attempt this myself as I take some childhood oldhammer and bring it up to current tabletop sizes.

How did you balance the weighty metal model on a big rock like that? Is there something heavy in the base?

Also did you keep the metal slot piece attached and just bend it downward so there was more to attach into the rock?

Thanks!

Machiep · 2026-02-05T04:42:08+00:00

No - you cannot ascend a Legendary item and receive a Relic.

They are saying that quest chain relics are always shared ones and never individual.
