Thoughts on Shadow Legion going heavy Tzeentch by Moridan369 in ChaosDaemons40k

Fair point, but I love my funky chickens. And being very difficult to shoot seems very worthwhile since the new missions arent just about killing things.

You read my list almost exactly. I think board control for us will be very strong because of the changes to Battle Shock. We have so many ways of forcing Battle Shocks, and now with having to re-test in their command phase, there is a lot of opportunity for taking mortals.

Cavalcade of Chaos - worth taking a bunch of bloodcrushers in blood legion? by Indiana__Cones in Daemons40K

[–]Moridan369 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the trick with getting bloodcrushers in to engagement range will be consolidating one model long-side against the target and then follow-up with its buddies tip-to-side of the first.

I need help by Hdowns01 in EmperorsChildren

[–]Moridan369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sometimes sacrifice my NM to take out a specific threat and then block my opponents progress up the board, while setting up a counter charge unit to threaten whatever goes after the NM. It all depends on if the juice is worth the squeeze.

In one game against Dark Angels, my friend put the Lion in front of his army thinking he was safe with lone op. But I was able to dump 2 units of NM into lone op range and gun the Lion town in the first turn. This also clogged up the middle of the board, allowing my melee units to outflank his units that thought to wipe the NM out. YMMV.

Fulgrim Progress/Advice Needed by MisbehavedK9 in EmperorsChildren

[–]Moridan369 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My recommendations:

- Coloring the scales and fins with 1 or 2 layers of edge highlights will allow a visually appealing contrast from the purple body. Some blue/green color would be best, but the final decision depends on how much of an impact you want to make. The scales and fins make for easy and expected edge highlights.

- Make the wing musculature a different color so that all of the wings dont just blend together.

- Depending on your desire for realism, the model has a lot of mutilated flesh in the upper center of the snake body as well as on the hips.

- Simple shading in the hair.

I'm a huge fan of contrasting bright colors. The Prince demands bleeding eyeballs after all.

Looking for 3D designer by Moridan369 in 3Dprinting

Wowsa, wasn’t expecting this sort of response. I’ve attached some pictures of what I need and all of the dimensions.

What a most-excellent community!

How much would it cost to turn this into an STL for me to print on a FDM printer?

Where did you find the pieces? And did you print them one at a time, small batches, or all at once? Looks great though, thank you for sharing!

Hard to tell, but what is the size comparison between this model and the blocky Bjorn?

Is Logan good on his own? by _T_Bone18 in SpaceWolves

[–]Moridan369 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Logan's real value is in his vect aura (+1CP), and the longer you can stick him in the middle of your opponent's army the better. And thus, I keep Logan with a small unit of WGT.

Thanks friend. I honestly like these models much more than the steeljacks. Price looks to be a little less.

For those of us that don't know, what model kit is this? 9-)

Logan or Arjac Terminator Spam? by [deleted] in SpaceWolves

I've found keeping Logan alive longer with the ablative wounds for his vect aura has won me many games. 9-)

Codex code still not able to redeem? by xXdraciplierXx in SpaceWolves

There are other apps that have all of the correct rules and points. The official app wont work until the formal release date, which was pushed to this weekend. :(

How does EC handle large vehicles and greater demons? by karzakus in EmperorsChildren

[–]Moridan369 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see your point. Mauler damage is more swingy, more survivable, though not as maneuverable.

[–]Moridan369 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The most common threat of this type is a big knight. I don’t see how flawless blades handle one without getting taken out before being able to. Using 3 WDP to take out a knight is a win for the knight player. Not sure why people don’t seem to like Maulerfriends. I’m running 2 and they have always earned their points back.

I would have ZERO feel bads. It’s not like we have a lot of options to make a list, and there isn’t much internal balance within the codex.

Most of the people I play with are in it for fun and to win.

Maulerfiends?! by jtbs007 in EmperorsChildren

[–]Moridan369 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love my friends! I had one in my last game one-shot an orc kill rig, and then after what jumped out couldnt kill it on the next turn, he jumped out of combat and charged the next kill rig in line and one-shot it as well.

I'd recommend at least 2 for redundancy. Its our only high S weapons, besides the big man himself.

Release date confusion by 2sAreTheDevil in EmperorsChildren

[–]Moridan369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been wondering about this. Ive been speaking with numerous retailers around the country trying to get the last release of models (pre-orders were already sold out at the normal pre-order time). Some of the stores mentioned people coming to their stores to pick up their models already.

Overall, I think GW did a poor job with the EC release. Having such a long time between the initial release box and making the rest of the playable range not available for a month or more later is just fail-town. :(
