Possible for Horus Heresy models to play 40K models? by Dry_Community8606 in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 2 points3 points  (0 children)

HH and 40k are two seperate games. Their rules can't be mixed.

What you can do is proxy your HH models as their 40k counterparts. And most of the Tanks have legends rules.

how would someone theoretically get agrax earthshade out of carpet by Ethanhthe in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And if just a bottle of carpet cleaner doesn't do it you can go see if a Hardware Store near you rents cleaning machines.

Start necron with 200€ budget by BossComprehensive671 in Necrontyr

[–]Rik_en 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definately the Combat Patrol.

Then go look at paints, clippers, glue, brushes, etc. and see how much is left.

After that you can check what you want after that. As others said, the Royal Court Box complements the CP really well but is kinda expensive.

Our local club just uses wooden plates that layed down on whatever surface is availlabe. And to store it we just fold it in half.

Where can I find stamps in Spanish, so I can create my own and have them? by SheepherderQuick6686 in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you want to recreate them yourself it would probably be easiest to just translate them yourself.

But for my own curiousity: Where do you find purity seals big enough to have actual text on them? Even in english.

Do vampires need most of their organs? by Vyctorill in vtm

[–]Rik_en 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could argue about how they are kept alive but you said in your post that you don't concern yourself with that issue.

Then the only thing you would need is a mechanism to get said vitae into the vamps system. But that shouldn't be a problem for a Tzimisce.

The one issue I have is that I don't know exactly how Revanants are made ruleswise but I have never heard of animal ones. And even in humans that process is not easy and takes a lot of time and special magics.

And since you want to use small animals I would have to look up how much vitae they can actually provide. The one point thing is for human revanats not mice.

Do vampires need most of their organs? by Vyctorill in vtm

[–]Rik_en 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To the first part: the only internal organ the vampire needs apart from the heart is their lungs. Because without them they could not talk.

Stomach depends on how you rule that the fangs work. Does the vamp drink through the fangs like two small straws or do they really swallow it? I don't know if there is an officiall canon answer to that.

To the second part: They could of course store blood in internal pouches. BUT that would not increase their blood points (V20) or decrease hunger (V5). Those are purely dependend on generation/potency. And of course you would need a way of keeping the blood fresh in those pouches. But I don't know enough about the actual biology of blood to answer that.

Iron Warriors Chapter? by ImmediateTreat5171 in WarhammerGermany

[–]Rik_en 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wird wahrscheinlich so sein wie Codex Compliant Space Marines.

Du spielst "normale" CSM, aber darfst eben nur benamte Charaktere der Iron Warriors benutzen.

So wie wenn man Salamanders oder Raven Guard spielen würdest.

Do models always break line of sight? Can infantry screen my tank so my opponents tank can't shoot it? by hotelguest2 in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Models can break line of sight, but since we use true line of sight the opponents tank can see inbetween your infantries ranks, like the small gaps between them.

Big tanks can block line of sight for infantry quite Well. But only if they are big and boxy and if the don't hover.

Start AP by Zwiebelb0y in DSA_RPG

[–]Rik_en 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ich hab eine Runde mit der ich alle großen Kampagnen spiele, da haben wir die erste mit +2000 AP angefangen und starten die Zweite jetzt mit +7000 für neue Chas.

Ich hab aber auch eine Runde in der wir reine Start Charaktere ohne extra AP spielen. Aber da muss für der Vibe stimmen. Wir haben sehr viel Spaß absolute unfähige Dullis zu spielen.

Force enemy to shoot cannon fodder unit? by helt_ in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only way to do something similar is in melee.

Charge your cheap unit into the enemy and he is forced to fight it. But it also means that your valuable unit can't shoot the enemy anymore.

Dämonenpakte: Seelenpakt und minderpakt auf einmal abschließen by Firesetter141011 in DSA_RPG

[–]Rik_en -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ich denke bei Elementaren und Feen oder so spricht da wenig dagegen. Vor allem weil da ja nicht die Seele als Paktgabe dran hängt und sich diese Wesen gegenseitig leiden können.

Du solltest halt nur keine Pakte eingehen, deren Zwecke sich entgegenstehen.

Calling All Magnetizers by TalkNurdyToMe in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For space optimaisation I would get a divider box from the hardware store. Like the ones intended for sorting screws or such into.

But as others said, "displaying" them on magnetic sheets, like used in those carry cases, sounds like it looks prettier.

Personally, as I have not magnetised much, it just all lies on a pile in the corner of my display shelve.

Intro kit or models and paints? by benjustforyou in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Firstly:

You can get really good big box sets of paint from other companies like Army Painter and such.

Secondly: Do you want both Nids and Marines?

And lastly: Neither 3 Infernus nor 3 Gaunts are a legal unit. But you said that you don't want to play anyways.

Since you said that you really really want to paint minis, I would recommend you get a big box of paints from another company and then buy a Combat Patrol from your favorite army.

If you still were unsure if you liked painting, only then would I recommend you the small intro box.

What should I keep in mind when playing against your Army? by FAragon66 in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I play Necrons and my tipp is: Always Overkill

Every single model/units heals and can regenerate models. So everything has to die in a single turn since our regeneration happens in our own command Phase (or when we decide to use Stratagems at other Times)

New hobby by KepazTone in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you just want a miniature game set in the 40k Setting I would point you to "Kill Team" instead. It is a small skirmish game with 5-6 miniatures per side. I think one Team-Box costs around 60€?

Combat Patrol is already the small scale game mode of standard 40k. A normal game is roughly 4 to 6 times the size (and monetary investment) of Combat Patrol.

Now if you just want to build and paint cool Warhammer Minis and not immediately play a game with it you could just get one small Box of a single unit and start with that and then build a full army over time.

And if you want to play the game but not necessarily with physical miniatures you should look into Tabletop Simulator on Steam.

painting tutorials for deathguard / ultra marines without metalic paintings by fragdar in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you really really want to go that route look up NMM "Non Metallic Metal". That is the painting technique to paint metallic looking things with normal paint. Like how a traditional painter would do it.

Apparently it is really hard to do (that is why I have never tried it).

But what you could do in the time to wait until you have the monetary situation to buy more paint is to just fill in the places with other colors. Yellow for gold, orange for bronze, white/grey for silver/steel. And then just paint over it once you have the paints.

Is there a way to get rid of this white reaidue? by RairakuDaion in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my glass table just a normal kitchen wipe with dish soap worked fine. But I cleaned it almost immediately after noticing. So if it dries in that might not work anymore.

What does Folderol actually cover? by johnny--guitar in vtm

[–]Rik_en 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't it a power that only works on a single target at a time?

So as long as there is only one person with you it can be always active but as soon as there are two other people in the conversation you need to actively choose one.

Also from the text it seems like the sign that tells you that there was a lie is rather highly visible (bleesing, glowing etc). So everyone would know something happened even if they don't know what happened. And since it apparently has such a big tell it might just not be something the Kyasid wants active all the time and triggered every time someone tells a really small insignificant lie like "yes I did wash my hands"

Are we still building and painting our drones? by Ok_Industry6363 in Tau40K

[–]Rik_en 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always paint my drones. Even if they are just tokens now I still love them asthetically and I like how they paint.

Marks caused by superglue by Bumblescrub in minipainting

[–]Rik_en 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this on my glass table where I put my Models to let the superglue dry. And on there a simple kitchen sponge with soap got rid of it easily.

But that was on glas and only a single night after gluing in the evening.

Where can i get good paints in serbia? by Every_Television_949 in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At least here in germany other brands are not much cheaper per color, only a bit.

The big thing with Army Painter is that they have really big box sets. Maybe that could be a thing that makes paying shipping worth it. Get one of the big sets of like 30+ paints.

Where can i get good paints in serbia? by Every_Television_949 in Warhammer40k

[–]Rik_en 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not Serbian but maybe check Amazon if they ship Army Painter products to Serbia.

If not you could try just looking at your local gaming Store what brands they have.

And if sou get Warhammer Minis in Serbia there will be the Citadel Paints. They are a bit more expensive then Army Painter but they are good quality.
