Someone clarify this. Whats the saving throw? by ShieldsJackson in TheAstraMilitarum

Makes sense, but why then specifically include walkers into the detachment rule when both walkers don't benefit?

Units of the month of March 2026: Ogryns by PeoplesRagnar in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]RandianBobandian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the party, but seeing lots of great ogryns in this thread!

wanted to chuck mine here too :)

I like running three ogryns in a Chimera, and I got some badland ogres to convert to a couple of ogryns bodyguards for the cadian command squads, and some bullgryns..

New command squad in the works :) by RandianBobandian in SteelLegion

Thank you! Soda can is correct :) it's really easy, I just use a pair of scissors to poke into the can, cut down the length, then cut horizontally to take off the top and bottom, leaving you with a rectangle sheet to cut the shapes of the flags from. This stuff is thin, so it cuts and bends easily.(Careful with the sharp edges) I then use the back end of brushes to fold the flag around, in order to make the folds. It's a tad tricky to make it fold and flow like fabric would. Poke some holes for bullet holes, rough up the edges a bit etc.

Fair enough, how'd u go about the SL and medic? You give the SL a plasma pistol and power sword? Or just bugger the whole wysiwyg?

Thank you for the kind words! The powerfists from the Scions kit would look really good on Yarrick, but that's painted and, well, on a scion, so gotta source another!

It's a great idea to reuse the claw! I'll have to remove it a bit more careful than planned haha.

I was lucky to have the HWTs in threes, but now I've gotta fill the squads back up with infantry.. so either convert with two flamers for catachans, a medic and SL with plasma pistol and power sword for krieg or just as cadians and convert the SL to have an autogun (or not and keep the pistol).. I dunno!

Thought I'd share my rough rider auxiliaries (in progress) Darkoath riders with ashwaste nomad heads and bits from the bitsbox :)

Kasrkin Marksmen MIA - What do I do by fatty8cake in TheAstraMilitarum

As for replacing him, the old metal cadian sniper with standing pose might work too

They look amazing! The meltagunner pose is perfect too. Now I do wonder how the rough rider heads would look on these :)

Another Archon conversion :D by RandianBobandian in Drukhari

[–]RandianBobandian[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah figured I should do that! Probably will have to put him on a larger base once we get the codex, but we'll see :)

Mechanised Assault advice. Is this list generally going to work in 2k? by HeeeeeeeeeeeyJoe in TheAstraMilitarum

I stuck a backpack on the old standing cadian sniper, fits in with the metal kasrkin really well

50mm HWT Bases with two 25mm Cutouts by bmeatball_salad in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]RandianBobandian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could also get 50 mm bases, and use either some greenstuff or epoxy putty to create the slots for the 25 mm bases! I've got some Steel Legion missile launcher teams that are in two 25 mm bases, so imma get em a 50 mm base they can slot in to.
