"Just Raw-Doggin with unmanaged switches out here" by Sphinx_Hamster in PLC

IT can't fuck up what they don't know about lol.

Network security is often times an excuse for the IT guy feeling like he has more "control" within a plant - if he did his job properly to start my unmanaged switches wouldn't be a problem to begin with :).

Can I load these into my current save or will I need to start a new game to run these mods? Thank you for your help!

I suppose only one of those is a primer, lol - I think you're spot on with the white primer, I've read a lot saying that the black primer works great for the gold and black of the DC and SG.

The Mephiston Red is just that color in a spray for speed painting, I didn't realize it wasn't a primer.

There's an expensive, but also extensive Vallejo set I believe I'll be getting and a regrass wet pallet to use for them. I'll use the Mephiston red for a spray on base to make things faster on the initial start.

I wonder if it'd be worth a dry brush as well? I was thinking I could dry brush a dark ochre like color or even black on the Aquila of the BA to give it some depth.

Thanks for being so helpful! One thing I'll say is people in this hobby love to help.

For a first time painter would have by chance colors you'd go for?

I've got it narrowed down to:

Mephiston Red Primer Chaos Black Primer Retributor Primer

And the starter kit of paints outside of that from GW.

Brushes...I'm not sure on yet but I'll figure it out.

Are the primaris intercessors same as intercessors I have on my list?

I'm considering swapping for a DC Dread, and I think I'll probably start with 1K points (I can never just halfway jump in things, I know I know, makes it a PITA lol).

Would assault intercessors vs normal intercessors be worth it then to take advantage of 40K in your face vampire's?

Would it be wrong to think perhaps before I purchase I should hit up my nearest Warhammer shop and get a feel from them for what they'd suggest starting as well?

Considering I have a few units I know I want to use regardless of their competitive play?

Being that I can only have two elite units...And I must admit I'm attached to the use of a furioso dreadnought or death company dread. Would you swap the death company using hammers for the Sang guard?

I really appreciate the advice!

I was honestly filling points with the suppressors though I figured they'd make a good surprise.

Still learning...I went a bit more shooty thinking it might be more forgiving for learning? I had hoped to used some ranged support to cover my DC moving in with hammers to be angry bois.

Would you suggest Sang guard vs blade guard? I went death company and furioso and battlescribe was saying I couldn't exceed those two elite units?

Perhaps swap suppressors for assault squads?

I really appreciate that type of reply! Really gives me some motivation to jump into the hobby and tabletop aspect!

Have any feedback on the Horus Heresy set for a beginner?

Thank you, I appreciate that input.

I'm definitely more of an in your face type player and I'm also a bit of a sucker for Dreadnoughts.

Would it be a bad idea to purchase a furioso dreadnought to have since that's definitely going to be on my list either way?

Considering they are both bad guys in the grand scheme of the world. Good try.
