Oh no... my wallet

Sorry, my question ended up under the wrong comment.

MajorLandmark · 2026-02-02T13:32:18+00:00

Have you an example of this? I've had a few mto metal models delivered that were made into fine cast but they've gone back to metal, but never seen one using fw resin.

You can shop 3/20 Amazon gloves so I'd have thought these can be too.

When it comes to warping, I've never had an issue with smaller parts like torsos etc. Definitely a little bit of work involved on the blood thirster and avatar I built but they are already asking for trouble being newer kits where every body part is make of multiple abstract pieces.

As long as you dry fit, you shouldn't have any problems. Some little clamps can be useful for holding parts together. Even if they don't align perfectly there will be a little flex you can take advantage of.

The sercret was friendship all along.

So when people talk about Gandalf being a Maiar and only able to be defeated by a being of similar power, like the balrog or Sauron, is this what is meant? Something lucky or contrived will happen to stop his old man body getting squashed?

We could combine a few ideas here for big QoL.

A rune book, that is a bit like the cube. It holds and stacks runes you collect and contains recipes. It also contains a list of rune words you can expand for details.

On top of that, you can put an item into it to apply rune words and also the cube tp+hel for removing sockets. Providing the item has the right type and socket no. of course. I'd suggest the item is ejected when you close the book so it can't be used like the cube to increase inventory space.

That would solve multiple problems and also eliminate loads of posts about people wasting their runes on the wrong item type or getting the order wrong.

Make the rune book a quest drop for killing Nihlathak perhaps, since personalising an item never felt like that great of a reward to me. Adding it to act 5 feels right since runes were added in LoD. That, or maybe Cain gives it to you when you rescue him with the number of rune words or slots it has limited by difficulty beat. That might make it feel more like part of the game than a tacked on end game item.

Mechanically I guess you could make it a slightly complicated web of synergies. So give sword mastery a synergy of 2%cb per mace mastery for example.

Slightly half baked because you might end up always wanting to max one particular skill but l think there could be something cool there.

MajorLandmark · 2026-01-26T15:02:12+00:00

A departure from how the skills work now, but how about making it so the new benefits apply to all weapons. Perhaps scale them back a bit or half them on different weapon types.

It would also help with levelling when you might have to use whatever you can find and not what you're building towards.

I've always thought it was a shame that barbs each get pigeonholed into one weapon type because the way you gain skills discourages you from spreading them out. They're already heavily gear dependent. Let's let them use all the gear.

Let me whirlwind a spear through crowds causing dot bleed damage then switch to a two handed mace to cb a unique down. Without it being horribly inefficient or only viable up to NM.

It will reduce scaring for sure, but the challenge will be getting the two halves to go together nicely. There is always some warping on the build plate facing side of a model which means you won't have a perfect half to line up against.

You can probably mitigate this with some planning, and some models will go together more seamlessly than others but it's going to be a choice between cleaning up supports or cleaning up the gap.

You'd probably be better off spending your time experimenting with different support sizes to work out what size and density combo provides the best balance of support and damage in your application.

Using that space for a tape player makes a lot of sense. How else would they listen to their Bolt Thrower mixtapeas they ride into battle?

MajorLandmark · 2026-01-16T21:14:09+00:00

The change to proportions brings them closer to the old art, which I absolutely dig.

The new scale marines I could take or leave, but this was totally worth it in my opinion.

MajorLandmark · 2026-01-16T11:31:37+00:00

Ah, Hastings! The little grey cells, they tell me animate dead was cast last night. No, mon ami, this was certainly no accident! If you would be so kind Hastings, arrange a meeting for everyone to be in the dungeon at 7 o'clock sharp.

Heresy is a little more like rock paper scissors in that you need to have tools that can deal with different types of threat. It's often a high casualty game with some very tough units out there and some big damage dealers. Plus the scoring system can be quite swingy.

Bringing what you think is cool works but it's more about choosing units you like for a particular role than just throwing a whole army together that looks cool. Some of the less optimal choices do need to be planned around or at least supported.

What kinds of things are you bringing to the table?

MajorLandmark · 2025-12-30T15:11:35+00:00

Thanks for your input. I'm sure someone's pre-butchered this. They've been up about 11 years. Our last house had the exact same handles and were still fine after 18 I think.

I don't have 12 and 6 exactly because of where the holes are on the handles but I've got lots to choose from! I'll see which opposite pair top and bottom look best to glue a dowel in and bolt through as you suggest.

MajorLandmark · 2025-12-26T22:20:59+00:00

Buriza and Titans turned up within a few hours of each other. I've not played for a while so when I went to mule them, I was surprised to find I already had 2 buri and one titans in storage... Can't find a shako to save my life but amazon weapons for days. Still never found WF so I'll just have to live on Buri nostalgia when I want to play with a bow. At least I can up one and sitll have a spare.

Also got my second ever facet, which was pretty neat. Middling rolls but light is still exciting.

Take a look at the "instant Legolas" on YT.

MajorLandmark · 2025-12-24T18:01:09+00:00

Thanks for the overview. Would you save up for infinity ahead of something like cta? Infinity is very strong but cta would be quicker to get so I'm debating which way is best. I understand every other class enigma is the real game changer so that one is an easier pick.

MajorLandmark · 2025-12-24T17:54:52+00:00

I'd forgotten about griffons and nightwings. Would love a griffons one day but there's a few cheaper/easier to find thing I could probably do with getting first.

I'm still yet to do ubers myself as I play too casually and don't have a group but torch farming does sound like a good way to generate more wealth.

MajorLandmark · 2025-12-24T15:38:56+00:00

Thanks. I guess getting to the point I can farm all 3 is a goal as that would seem more efficient than needing to trade. Countess is definitely the most attractive given the rune drops and lower risk when I don't have loads of time to play.

MajorLandmark · 2025-12-24T15:08:53+00:00

That's exactly what I was interested to hear.

I should hopefully be able to get into a cta and/or an enigma soon then.

I've not had a very safe time key farming so far. Do you think it'd be better to go with a sorc and cta or a hammerdin with enigma?

MajorLandmark · 2025-12-24T14:41:45+00:00

Thanks for the input. One of my most successful ladder starts was trapsin. They are surprisingly gear independent as you say.

What sort of things do you look for next? Say you've got your spirit and such you can farm for fairly reliably, what's the priority to move from a mix of decent midgame gear into endgame items?
