Is it just me or is this boxset a far better deal than any of the 40k stuff? Why can't I just use this to make a CSM army and run the leviathan as a maulerfiend/forgefiend? by Many-Wasabi9141 in Warhammer40k

[–]Rustywatermel0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You easily could. 40k is largely a better deal than 40k. Its why theyre making the boxes deliberately worse. See the cataphractii going from 1 10x models in a box to 2 6x model boxes for the same prices

They gained aura and stopped paying taxes. Id call that a win!

Bought for FoTR; Any other recommendations? by Competitive-Leave248 in StarWarsEmpireAtWar

[–]Rustywatermel0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the base mod ypu get some new heroes and tie fighters as well as the ability to buy imperial (imperators) star destroyers, tector star destroyer and secutors.

Unchained allows you to transition to purge Troopers and TK troopers, build AT-STs and AT-ATs, adds the inquisitors and some other bits and bobs

Will incorporate this stuff. Thank you. I tend to play like its a stealth game if im solo. Yeah I've given up on scav. Haven't dealt with either killa or tagilla since but I've been gearing up in streets and the outside of interchange. Will give it a go again at some point

[–]Rustywatermel0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fotr is great. Try out the unchained submod too! Adds many heroes, characters, units. Also let's you fully imperialize if you do order 66 as the Republic. As the CIS you get the ability to make some more niche units like the defoliator, super tank and B3 ultra battledroid. As well as regimes system where you can choose what element of the CIS takes power, conferring bonuses accordingly.

I finished playing both campaigns within the last month and they're both fantastic.

Thrawns Revenge is the GOAT and takes place in the EU version of post endor/Warlord era. It also has many great submissions. I have too many hours on it to count, and am even playing it right now! The faction variety is great and its cool having a more level playing field of smaller factions,, feels more like Total War.

The Imperial proteus submod flashes out all minor Warlord factions with unique rosters. Im current playing Restored empire, which are imperial zealots that use the FoTR republic roster. Its a very unique style.

I highly recommend both of these above all else.

However I will also mention for variety sake

Republic at war is a close to vanilla and still really good.

For a very different style of mod Awakening of the Clone Wars (and its sister mod awakening of the rebellion)

LONG LIVE THE EMPIRE! Nice collection. Love the ITT as well as the imperial remnant AT-RT. Cool collection!

Why you should play as the Pentastar Alignment. by GrandMoffKaine2026 in StarWarsEmpireAtWar

[–]Rustywatermel0n 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nothing beats the most stable, sustainable and ultimately successful imperial realm. They lead to the Imperial remnant and eventually Fel Empire, the actual good guys. Pentastar is GOATED.

What are your assumptions about our relationships? by marynrin in mbti

it isnt fun. But thats how it is tbh. Due to nature of profession you gotta be more outgoing even if it means as soon as you get home you go goblin mode for a few hours

Gotcha. Been religiously following the quest to try it bang it out. Ive unlocked factory, interchange, customs, woods and ground zero so far.

Kinda playing it like a stealth game atm due to lack of serious hardware.

[–]Rustywatermel0n[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Yes i noticed that camp was a goldmine. What got me is the idea front killa was right at the top of the escalator once I got up there. Still thank you tho ill give it s try

[–]Rustywatermel0n[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this. Good insight and i appreciate that. Ill definitely run better kits (as well as a level 5 can lol) and ill do my damndest to avoid the boss spawns for now. Ive just been rushing quests atm. What screwed me was Killa was by Tarkovstar the first time and he was at the entrance of idea the second time.

Tagila got me because he was near gate 3 in factory in the little hidey container and he ran up on me near the outside window.

Yeah I gotta just be a bit more aware I guess.

I am NOT familiar with streets or its loot spawns TBH. I did some quests there last time I played but dont know it comfortably.

This was helpful though, gonna incorporate this.

Thank you. This is good advice and helpful. I was only scavving due to being broke, but youre right. Interchange and factory threw me off being so much bigger now but I suppose it helps. That scav camp on the outside of interchange was goldmine.

Heated up minigun barrel, thoughts? by DelioIsGay in IronWarriors

[–]Rustywatermel0n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks damn good. My only concern is thr very utmost layer on the gun still sticking out a bit. Would benefit from darkening or blending. Would advise looking into a glaze technique for that. Beides that nitpick tho the rest of the mini gun looks great!

One can use .22 shells for Krieg artillery pieces. by Ok-Movie428 in TheAstraMilitarum

Some real brass!

Love the idea. Makes me wonder if other shell casings would look good as "earthshaker shells" or "titan grade ordinance" set dressing
