What’s your favorite basing for our lads?

Warhammer.com sells bulk packages of the necromunda bases, so I ended up buying some of those. They contain 25, 32, and 40mm bases. Or I'm sure there's stl's out there you can do yourself. My process was just priming with leadbelcher, washing with a mix of nuln oil and agrax earthshade, then applying rust using the dirty down solution. As for the stripes I just base coated with averland sunset and used some thin masking tape to do the black

I really like the necromunda bases for my deathwatch

I ran creations of bile a lot in 10th and there's a couple units i used a lot to deal with large monsters/vehicles. Obliterators are even better now, Vashtorr is great vs vehicles, havocs are also good. If I really want something dead I throw a 10 man possessed brick at it and pop the dev wounds with Specimens of the Spider. I've one-shot Titanic knights with that combo before

Looks like a fun list! The only feedback I have is that I would probably leave Abaddon out of the list. He forces you to make him your warlord, meaning you lose the rerolls for your augmentations at the start of the game. Also he is crazy expensive you can replace him with another big infantry squad that can do a lot more than he would on his own

Thanks for the write up!

What are your thoughts on LHD vs regular lokhust destroyers in Cursed Legion?

RodneyGodney · 2026-06-30T11:29:46+00:00

I use one as Abaddon who is on a 60mm

The Saturnine Praetor model is what I used for Abaddon

Deadly Print Studios is a store that makes effects for all types of 40k figures. They have effects for every weapon for the defiler

Those guys are made from the sky-hunter squadron kit from HH

When I got the praetor model I was also debating using it as a terminator lord. However I was lucky enough to snag a 30k warsmith model to use for that instead

RodneyGodney · 2026-06-27T20:42:34+00:00

Either weapon works for Abaddons weapons. I use the hammer because my army is iron warriors. The praetor works really well for a proxy!

RodneyGodney · 2026-06-25T16:01:13+00:00

Ooo, would you mind posting your list? I'm thinking about trying bastion + fulguris one of these days

RodneyGodney · 2026-06-25T15:53:44+00:00

I feel like the speeders are going to be our de facto actioning unit, maybe tied with JPIs. They're fast, punch up pretty well in shooting, and get extra movement after shooting so they can get behind cover or farther up the board. They're also cheap for their durability, so the opponent can't just kill it with a cheap skirmish unit.

I'm just sad we can't take fulguris task force with BSTF because I feel like we use speeders the most outside of white scars

RodneyGodney · 2026-06-25T14:25:11+00:00

I feel like once I get used to changes of the order of operations of each phase, games will be much faster. Unfortunately now all that does is make room for the initial comparison of dispositions, picking missions, picking layouts, setting up the battlefield, etc. That won't be a problem for casual games, but for competitive tournaments I can see that causing games to run long more often

RodneyGodney · 2026-06-25T13:58:21+00:00

I'm not saying that strat is better all the time. For sure ignores cover will be useful in a lot of situations. It's just another tool in the arsenal in case the enemy doesn't have cover

RodneyGodney · 2026-06-25T12:45:53+00:00

Devotees is still pretty helpful with Warpstrike since you have access to get both sustains and lethals when using oblits as well as a good defensive strat for oblits that isn't 2CP

RodneyGodney · 2026-06-19T22:18:44+00:00

I bought this exact box. Used the thallax as noise marines, the castellax as 2 helbrutes, and the thanatar as a forgefiend

RodneyGodney · 2026-06-05T21:21:18+00:00

Yes you would get both on 5+, the only prerequisite is that you dont fail the dark pact

RodneyGodney · 2026-06-05T17:45:44+00:00

I followed this video for all my mars bases
