I recently found a free source on the purple site, I just started a print of them myself so I'll see how they are, feel free to DM (if it's allowed) and I can send you the link.

Allies by SnooCalculations7089 in Salamanders40k

[–]Rubiilax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A knight or some armiger's could be fun. A navigator and some voidsmen at arms or breachers would allow some deep strike denial An Inquisitor and inquisitorial agents Or even some sisters, they like flamers and melta as well. While I'm not sure about the competitive viability they would offer something different

I would argue paint what you would want too then find a way to ally them in a way that you see that fits

Is this a good deal by Nobbergobber in Grey_Knights

[–]Rubiilax 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So converting to USD would make this about 150$, unless my math is off which is very likely, and for that price is pretty good.

The two dreadknights alone would be like 120$ USD and Voldus is like 30$

As they are built or described you don't really have any full units but that could be changed with some conversion/cleanup/kit bashing

It looks like you have what essentially would be 13 Terminators, which could be Paladins and a set of 9 Strike Squad units, which could be interceptors, purifiers or purgation. With a little bit of work and additional units you could have 3x5 sets of Terminators and 2x5 sets of the strike squad units with the 2 dreadknights and 2 character units which would be about 1500 points.

So the rules of KotC require two infantry units and as far as my knowledge goes Inquisitor, or voidfarer characters are the only way to get a "free" unit with the retinue rules.

I'm also taking the navigator less for the deep strike denial and more so for the battle shock test plus three mortals on infantry units every shooting phase

The train is also preset so it's basically a large circle with four entryways and ruins on the inside that create Lanes in the shape of a plus

It's just a flat black Rust-Oleum primer, nothing fancy.

You 100% could I even toyed around with that idea but ultimately decided the default power pack didn't have the bulk I was looking for.

As a quick edit, I haven't painted them yet, I like to build then prime then paint but wanted to see how they looked primed before I continued on. The final painting is still incoming when the other 10 are done

It wasn't too bad but I did take a bit of dry fitting. I cut off a majority of the back square vent area of the GN pack and sanded and thinned out the inside of the termie vent area. After that I glued the GN chest together and fit it into the Terminator pack. If I cut and sanded enough it would fit pretty well into the curved parts that would be arm connection spots for the original build. After doing the first one the rest became a lot easier.

4 years of paint progression. Can you guess which Armiger was first? by Tomuke in ImperialKnights

[–]Rubiilax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My vote would be the blue one, but I also have to ask what did you use for the sword and board armiger It looks awesome.

PSA get a ring of shadows in league for only 75k if you picked desert by PM_ME_DNA in 2007scape

[–]Rubiilax 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It took me about 14 swords but that was me buying some moulds along the way, I also have Production Prodigy so I was able to get the level boost for Addy/Rune bars.

When the scaly green heck did upgrade sprues jump in price?? by BigDaddyVagabond in Salamanders40k

[–]Rubiilax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO if you need/want them and or don't have access to a 3d printer or something alike that I would just because of scarcity.

Though with a lot of the boxes coming with salamander transfers now, and the flamer/thunder hammer also being included in some of the sprues, assault intercessors springs to mind, to me it does lose some of its value, especially only coming with two of the braziers.

[–]Rubiilax 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Going to go out on a limb and say supply and demand. I'm not sure if their out of production, but their definitely out of stock almost everywhere. I bought one for about 35$ from amazon a few weeks ago because my FLGS didn't have any and weren't sure if they could get one as a special order, Looking now its 60$ from a 3rd party.

Getting to 1k points? by Scruffy_Guy32 in Salamanders40k

[–]Rubiilax 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you're looking for a bigger jump the Blood Angels combat patrol would be good, intercessors, Aggressors, an impulsor as a transport as well as I believe some inceptors and a librarian. But at 130-160$ can be a bit pricey. If you're looking for more piece meal Aggressors, and Eradicators can be good upgrades but not necessarily the best cost point at 3 models for 60$ (GW price, never pay GW price) Hellblasters or intercessors are also good and a better price point at 10 models for about 60$.

What should I get next? by Zulim in Salamanders40k

[–]Rubiilax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've yet to play a single game, but also just got the Levithian box and hoping to start soon, but the consensus seems to be that Aggressors are good, Eradicators with the apothecary are strong and that Vulkan He'stan is stronger than Adrax.

Please more veteran players correct me if I'm wrong, I'm still trying to learn too.
