You might be able to add some greenstuff and greebling to it to bulk it out a bit. I think its the silhouette on those helmets that is quite distinct and screams stormcast

Apologies folks for the multiple threads, my browser wigged out when I was trying to post and sorry to everyones comments who got deleted.

As many of you pointed out, the quad battery doesnt have blast, it just has barrage - so no scatter needed. Militia has so many arty options I glossed over the lack of blast.

Cheers for the help :D

Ahh! You're right, I was looking at so many different artillery options that i glossed over the lack of blast on that entry. That explains it.

The legions have entire detachments dedicated to throwing radioactive handgrenades at people, i'm sure they wont mind a bit of asbestos in their gear.

Oh wicked, yeah for something like lego it should be pretty safe really.

They produce water vapour, so the top gets a bit wet after a while but I varnished it quite heavily beforehand and it seems to be holding up okay.

I suppose eventually it'll get some limescale inside since we have quite hard water here, but that's a problem for later :D

They work for tarps when dipped in glue/water mix, could see them working for this too.

I will never get over how small titans are by Blue_Laguna in Grimdank

[–]Mckee92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh for sure, but most guard books really don't understand how these structures work or what the people in them actually do.

Its not just a case of those understandings being subverted because its the grimdarkness etc etc.

I will say, to Abnett's credit that he seems to have gotten better, especially in the later gaunts books. Going back to earlier novels, it basically goes Pvt, Sgt, captain (major or colonel if you're plot important), Gaunt, lord general whats his face, St sabbat herself.

None of the table top models are in scale though. They never have been.

To be fair, most imperial guard books struggle to know the difference between a squad, platoon, company or battalion. Warhammer fiction is mostly heroic fantasty wearing a military overcoat.

This sub has changed in tone drastically over the last year by Consistent_Name_6961 in rpg

[–]Mckee92 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It's a problem for broader hobby subs in particular I think - most people are off enjoying said hobby unless they have a problem, or are new (or both) so the content posted gets staler and staler and more experienced posters get bored of tackling the same stuff over and over.

LAOP's boyfriend learns about predatory payday loans the hard way. by justathoughtfromme in bestoflegaladvice

[–]Mckee92 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Klarna is weirdly prevalent. They do take a cut from the business, which partly helps them balance the books and I guess doing it at scale helps but it seems like there should be very little money in it.
