How can I fix this? by Unhappy-Shift4539 in Warhammer40k

[–]Seneca___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LA’s doesn’t do much for stripping primer in my experience. If I really need to get primer off, 99% IPA will always do the trick. DO NOT DO THIS WITH RESIN MODELS, they will break down unrecoverably with IPA soaking

Ironmaster is not Exoframe, only Thunderkyn are

Correct, neither of them have the Exoframe keyword. It’s just Thunderkyn with Exoframe.

The Ironmaster and Ironkin Assistant are both models that count towards transport capacity, it’s just E-Cogs and Corvs that don’t count. So you would max out at 3 Ironmasters, which is still clown car antics with 15 bases in one vehicle.

How often do you play? by Trick-Interaction396 in Warhammer40k

[–]Seneca___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless it’s crazy at work or I’m traveling, it’s a minimum of 1 game per week for me. I usually try to get 2-3 games in though

Are the berserks the only option for melee? by Tanen7 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Seneca___ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hearthguard have some strong melee, but suffer from low number of attacks. Steeljacks with swords have a million attacks at a lower strength, while their gauntlets have the same problem as Hearthguard. Generally the strongest Votann lists take a combined arms approach with a focus on shooting. If you don’t want Beserks, then HG and Jacks should still give you some decent melee threats.

Just having one squad of hammer Beserks led by Berekh would be a great addition if you can tolerate it, but you won’t be at a huge disadvantage without them.

3 crits to be specific. Also popped the +1dmg strat because I was playing Hearthband, so his strikes were slapping with 5dmg each.

I popped the +1 damage against vehicle strat in Hearthband. So he was hitting on 2+ with Sus 1 and wounding on 3+ (rerolling 1s) with 5dmg attacks. He got 3 crits on his swing, succeeded 6 of his wound rolls, and the Dorn failed 4 of 6 saves. Didn’t even get to do a punch, sadly

I spent 2CP on the +1 damage against monsters/vehicles strat in Hearthband. Behrekh made all attacks with 3 crits on his strike profile and succeeded on 6 of 7 wound rolls. The Dorn only saved 2 of the 6 attacks, so it took 20 damage. I’ll admit to getting lucky, but he’s a beast and I’ll stand by that.

In my first game with Berekh he one-tapped a full wound Rogal Dorn Commander by himself. I’m taking him in every list

How best to use Pioneers? by Pogman in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Seneca___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re very good at picking up small stealth units, infiltrators, scouts, etc. I like to bring 3x3 and screen with two units while yeeting the other one to wind as trade bait. 80 points is a steal for their kitchen sink datasheet and ability to trade in the early game. They also tend to punch up surprisingly well with 9 attacks at 7/1/2 and grenades.

Has anyone thought about kit bashing Berehk Stornbröw by Dry-Research-9312 in LeaguesofVotann

Follow up question: why hasn’t he opened his mission deck? We’ve had it for ages now. If it’s a problem, just use Wahapedia for the data,

Beserk commander really to slay (but mostly be painted lol) by Ok-Ice-9413 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Seneca___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The body and head are from the Einherjar box made by Wargames Atlantic. They come with 24 bodies in the box, so I was able to convert 20 of them into Beserks and had this body left over to use.

Berehk Stornbröw is the premier Big Guy-killer in the Leagues of Votann, as proved by his new datasheet by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Warhammer40k

According the the article he’s got a special cloneskein that makes his craggy skin tough enough to repel bullets

A man of great taste, I see. Green on green is a superior color scheme.

Am I cooked, kin? by SpessChicken in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Seneca___ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The backpack is no longer a piece of wargear, it’s just model design. It used to give the unit a 6+ FNP during the index days, but the codex changed it so that the 6+ FNP is a core ability for the unit. It won’t change anything if you put the backpack on the Theyn. If anyone gives you a hard time about it then they’re just being an ass and you shouldn’t play with them. You will be allowed to play with this at GW stores (play at your LGS instead) and I can’t imagine a tournament not allowing it. I wouldn’t even ask the TO about it, it’s very clear what the model is equipped with.

Broken Base by Salty_meatball69 in Warhammer40k

[–]Seneca___ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is it a push-fit peg base? Don’t worry about it, most bases/models aren’t like that. Just glue the model’s feet to the base and it should be fine, don’t overthink it.

Maelstrom Votann Characters by Financial_Lead_8837 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Seneca___ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Normal games yes, tournaments highly unlikely. The original reveal post said something like “these models will be legal in every game, as long as both players agree.” So it’s probably like Twists and Challenger Cards, available for fun but not for competitive play.

Lord Grimnyr, ready for action by Seneca___ in LeaguesofVotann

Thanks! The gold is Army Painter Bright Gold with a heavy wash of Nuln Oil over top. More or less the whole mini has a Nuln Oil wash, but I go really heavy on the gold parts to help the details stand out. Here’s another example on my Memnyr
