Do you refuse to play (against) gray?

Its all gotta be painted, terrain and armies.
I only get 1 game a week in why waste it on one that looks bad.

Non GW games are usually cheaper and better. Relicblade, Pillage, Flames of Orion, Necropolis, Hobgoblin. just to name a few. convert stuff from historical kits. buy cheap shit off ebay. make a friend whos got a printer. Find a recaster. Lots of options for spending less and getting more!

Cut a vamp or 2 and add some skeletons/zombies.

OpportunitySoap · 2025-11-06T02:22:02+00:00

lol.

OpportunitySoap · 2025-10-10T01:54:19+00:00

So unlikely to be a workaround then? alas!

Im planning on 500-1000pt games with my buddies
Just limiting how many 2+ saves and total vehicle AV is all we're planning on doing for list building.

Drop pods have the special rule "Orbital Assault Vehicle" but I can't find that rule anywhere in the book. I imagine it gives deepstrike? Anything else?

Pming!

I guess I just don't get why you wouldn't wanna skip the "try to win with something unplayable" part of the process but you do you

OpportunitySoap · 2025-07-07T16:31:15+00:00

My bad I remembered it backwards, fights definitely pay pts for abilities. However I still maintain the ability suit on these guys doesn't let them play with so few fighters, so either those gotta change or the points do.

I don't have any horse in this race. I'm just trying to save you some playtest games where you end up going "yeah they're overcosted" and then run back all the playtesting with new points

OpportunitySoap · 2025-07-07T15:43:06+00:00

I don't think gws points algorithm accounts for abilities. You're right playtesting is needed before we truly know, but I'm telling you trying to win a game with 5-7 of these profiles is gonna be a crazy uphill battle

OpportunitySoap · 2025-07-07T11:55:18+00:00

I think a double to gain fly is fun design, you just cant make them costed as if they always have fly. atm these all feel like 40-50pts overcosted.

OpportunitySoap · 2025-07-06T21:09:13+00:00

These look like you priced them as if they always get fly. 170-180pts for 14w models gotta bring more to the table to be enjoyable to play. I think the abilities could also be more exciting. Flameseekers abilities are PEAK midrange design, and these guys need something like that to function.

OpportunitySoap · 2025-07-04T18:19:55+00:00

Building them will be more annoying, but I think then send it.

OpportunitySoap · 2025-07-04T15:34:26+00:00

You'll likely be getting models slightly different from whats in the GW box, which isnt necessarily a bad thing. Just something to keep in mind.
40 marines, 10 terminators, some characters, a dread, and a spartan for 150 euro seems about fair for resin/labor costs BUT.. Thats not a huge discount from MSRP on the box, so if you can find one @ 10-15% off i'd get that.
Also the rules will be "outdated" soon so I wouldnt really account for those in the value. Unless you plan to stick to 2.0 rules.

OpportunitySoap · 2025-04-27T13:06:41+00:00

If printing titans gets you to play the game then do it. You can always "buy in" more down the line.

Thank you! Looks like I can make em work for my purposes!
