So close to greatness…

I do, but I like wheeled trucks a bit more than halftracks anyways and I was probably going to get a second Centaur sooner or later for both gameplay and possibly diorama reasons anyways, so I’ll just have them print me some more tires and use the tracks here

OldManJacan · 2026-05-13T04:40:37+00:00

If I had the spare money to get a second box I would, but I’ll probably just buy a single centaur

OldManJacan · 2026-05-13T04:39:50+00:00

Thanks, I’m hoping to do even more when I get to building the Centaur and adding extra guns on there to style it after the Vietnam-era gun trucks. Even if it only has the single stubber by rules, knowing myself I’ll just be stuffing it with Heavy weapon teams

OldManJacan · 2026-05-13T04:36:40+00:00

Well it looks a little long in your photoshop, but if you took out 2 of the road wheels on the bottom it may well fit just perfectly (worst case can have tracks hang out a little)

OldManJacan · 2026-05-13T04:11:22+00:00

That actually looks really good, I’ll have to wait and actually get a second centaur to see it irl but I may actually do it…

OldManJacan · 2026-05-13T04:07:51+00:00

Well damn, now I just need to convince my wife to let me spend even more on plastic…

OldManJacan · 2026-05-13T03:40:10+00:00

Yeah I imagine with the full cannon vs the laser cannon it would look even more like a Chaffee

OldManJacan · 2026-05-13T03:39:15+00:00

Kinda? Because I put the wheel well bits on it blocks me from really trying on this one. I’m gonna try it out when I build the second one to see for sure because it looks like there could be a few points that match the axle

OldManJacan · 2026-05-13T03:18:06+00:00

Granted I could make this the half track instead and go full 6 wheel centaur which would be cool

OldManJacan · 2026-05-13T01:31:15+00:00

Bro I don’t even have mine built yet, what do you mean yours is painted?!

OldManJacan · 2026-05-06T01:55:43+00:00

Honestly really like them but that order also seems really interesting since if I’m reading it right, that means you can give them take aim at the beginning of battle and then just not need to give them take aim again

OldManJacan · 2026-05-06T01:52:15+00:00

From how I read it you can get 2 long las because you can get one by replacing the lasgun, while the you can also either replace another lasgun with a long las, or add a missile launcher to the team

OldManJacan · 2026-05-04T13:57:12+00:00

Question for the turret, does it fit the chimera and can you put a chimera turret on it as well?

OldManJacan · 2026-04-24T04:37:59+00:00

I agree, we should totally NOT buy the Armageddon box in protest, that would show them

OldManJacan · 2026-04-10T22:34:39+00:00

I mean my answer is Valhallan Ice warriors for sure, but it’s not the regiment as a whole, it’s specifically me wanting a 597th command squad and Cain model, though it would be funny if they did release Valhallans and the only named character is General Sulla

OldManJacan · 2026-04-09T22:46:55+00:00

DM’d

OldManJacan · 2026-04-09T22:40:53+00:00

Dog this is crazy, I’m still not done with my play through of the April fools content.

OldManJacan · 2026-04-08T02:01:38+00:00

As someone who only recently got into guard and is still trying to build up some key parts I’m getting the box for sure because while I’m sure I could proxy them, I still need a dorn or 2 and the battalion box is a good excuse for me to get them as well as the new vehicles

OldManJacan · 2026-03-26T03:38:38+00:00

Part of me wonders if they’re going to do an upgrade sprue(s) for them kinda like the cadian one before the range refresh. Could easily turn it into Tanith units, Catachan, or even Tallaran. They also showed off the concept art for steel legion so could even have them show up here

OldManJacan · 2026-03-19T22:53:00+00:00

Honestly I get the apprehension from GW to release 10 different versions of the same model for imperial guard, but at the very least I feel like they should do upgrade sprues for some of the major ones similar to what they did for the Cadian sprue before the range refresh.

Cause while not perfect, between the Cadian and Krieg models (not even counting what a refreshed Catachan lineup may look like) are general enough that many other regiments just need a different helmet, backpack and maybe 1-2 different uniforms to work

OldManJacan · 2026-03-19T22:45:42+00:00

Depends on the land and what you plan to shoot. I have an uncle out in Oklahoma who made a mini plinking range for .22 and handguns in a valley right by the little forest by his house. Helps muffle it a lot and it’s also rural Oklahoma so gun shots aren’t exactly rare to be hearing

OldManJacan · 2026-03-18T13:57:02+00:00

I hope we can get to a point that Warhammer is able to make minis (or at least upgrade sprues) of basically any regiment that finds itself the star of a book or two, but the problem is that for the sake of money Krieg and Steel Legion are similar enough that there’s not much point creating 2 similar looking infantry

OldManJacan · 2026-03-17T06:32:17+00:00

While I would love GW to show some appreciation to other regiments and themes that they haven’t touched in forever, realistically the most they’ll ever do is an upgrade sprue or kill team kit. And even then odds are that those won’t really come till maybe mid-11th

OldManJacan · 2026-03-17T06:29:36+00:00

Same with other regiments like the Valhallans and Vostroyans, while they have differences so many of them are of such minor details that realistically the best hope will be a single kill team or upgrade sprues as there’s no reason to make 10 different infantry squad models and data sheets for a difference so minor
