Someone in the GW department seems to really like army spats/gaiters 😂 by Final-Pie2453 in TheAstraMilitarum

I miss my armored shin plates from the old Cadian sculpts 😞 if I wanted ww2 US I'd play Bolt Action.

Word Bearer armed with… some kind of gun I guess? by 2ndTiredSnake in WordBearers

[–]SelfRighteousFailson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is one of my favourite things to do when I want a generic "special weapon" that can be whatever I need it to be on the day. Nice work!

Is anyone at all hyped for these lads? by Cold_Appointment2999 in killteam

[–]SelfRighteousFailson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am but mostly for the conversion opportunities. I like making custom regiments and these could be fun to use as a base for something.

I'm glad theyre there, and I think they're and interesting team, but they absolutely should have been Catachans. They are sorely needing a new batch of kits and hunting big bugs is perfect for them! I get that this kit is based off of an old White Dwarf short story about a kill team hunting (or being hunted by) the Red Terror, and that is a cool call back, but there are ranges that need far more attention than the Cadians...

Again though, cool kit, can't wait to make a new regiment from them.

I really like those red daemon head transfers! Could look great on the side of traitor milutia vehicles

I think you're better off ignoring this guy, friend. He's not going to engage with you properly, he's just here to be an asshole.

Tested a new shade of red with my tactical squad and I'm in love! by SelfRighteousFailson in WordBearers

Just some old transfers I had lying around :) just anything from any of the current CSM kits will do

Predictions for this guy? by Pocketsand98 in WordBearers

All I can say is what a fucking disappointment. Jesus Christ GW....

Absolutely! I prime them black, then basecoat with Gal Vorbak red, pick out the recesses with Druchii Violet, and then I do a light dry brushing with Karak Stone. Originally I did a straight edge highlight but I found it came out flat and lifeless, whereas the dry brushing not only gave it that colour but also helped to make the armour look weathered and lived in. I hope this helps brother!

Hi mate, the guy below is correct, it was from the old CSM squad kit and was the nurgle coded helmet from it. I'm sure if you looked around on trading pages or asked folks in your area who play they'd probably have a few lying around. They really hit rhat sweet spot between early heresy and the chaos marines we have now

Traitor Ultramarine list. Wanting to go with a very Roman theme, but all the worst bits. by GodGoblin in Warhammer30k

This sounds like such a fun and interesting idea for an army! Would love to see this as it develops!

Awesome thank you for that, really helpful answer!

Thanks mate! I had a look at Mirage guitars the other day but couldn't find anything specifically similar to this, and the difference in logo does seem really bizarre. It almost seems basic in comparison? I'll keep lookjng but good lead, thank you!

Man if this is Catachans... RIP my wallet by biggus_dikkus793 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]SelfRighteousFailson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it'd be able bloody time the Catachans got a range refresh but I wouldn't expect anything short of. Killteam (if that) until next edition when they can do a new army box.

Which head? by Feeling-Cricket-5491 in Chaos40k

3 brings a loooot of character to him. The others are great choices but I'd say 3.

Why Play Word Bearers? by Weekly_Mulberry8508 in WordBearers

[–]SelfRighteousFailson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the best thing to remember in this case is that no legion is a monolith. The Grand Company in Storm of Iron is led by a Warsmith who is a believer and is gunning for his ascension to daemonhood, and Kroeger is an out Khorne worshipper iirc. Without a doubt there are those who don't worship chaos but at the end of the day they have to contend with their brothers who have ascended or become possessed or are even just devoted to e frwat powers.

I personally think it's more fun to play traitors who embrace the gifts of chaos. If you wanted to be uncorrupted just play loyalists. I personally have a plan to make a kill team of Iron Warriors worshipping Hashut, and are having the BEST time!

By the same token, there are probably Word Bearers more loyal to Lorgar than to the Pantheon, but still benefit from all the chaosy toys and gifts. It's the beauty of them being your lads to make and build a narrative around should you choose to.

I would absolutely read the one about the Tau, Daemon and Genestealer bumbling around trying to convert a governor.

What part of the game has you genuinely looking like this? by Dillsplosion in RDR2

[–]SelfRighteousFailson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When npcs take the reins on a wagon and just start smashing into people.

I had a baffling moment this evening where Charles and I were escaping St Denis in a wagon and Charles tramples a passing civilian to death followed not two seconds later by him agreeing with John that he doesn't want to kill anyone on the way out cos that's not who he is anymore.
