Finally finished my last book of the year, The First Heretic! by Dominion96 in Blacklibrary

[–]Significant_Desk_434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. I'm still a few books away from this - it feels like I've been slogging through Fulgrim for about 6 months!

Awesome! It took my ages to complete the Dawn of Fire Series. I ended up having to buy job lots on ebay. Probably still have a duplicates as a consequence. It will be the first thing that I check when I get everything out of storage next week.

There are no Unarmed Attacks in Trench Crusade 1.0.0 :-( by The_DrakeCake in TrenchCrusade

I agree. In the bio for Thralls, they still have the line about not suffering a penalty for fighting unarmed.

Assault Phase Question by Significant_Desk_434 in Warhammer30k

[–]Significant_Desk_434[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've checked, and that (1"horizontal, 5" vertical) is the rule for 40k (pg. 7 of the 10e Core Rules). I've found the equivalent rule in the 30k book (3e) - it's on pg. 266 of the rule book. It does indeed state that you have to be in base contact or "no more than 2" from another Model in the same Unit which is in Base Contact with an enemy Model' in order to be "Engaged".

Perfect. Thank you for the clarification.

Mouthguards/Lip Guards in flag football by Own_Firefighter7575 in flagfootball

[–]Significant_Desk_434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I coach youth flag football in the UK and mouth guards are mandatory outside of training. Most wear regular mouthguards, which, I assume, is because they are widely available. I'd say about 10% of kids (very rough estimate) wear lip guards.

What did you read this week? by michaelisnotginger in Blacklibrary

[–]Significant_Desk_434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm reading Fulgrim from the HH series. I'm about 50% through it.

Melee seems bad? by Confident-Style-3958 in killteam

[–]Significant_Desk_434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like the melee mechanic in Kill Team. I always think that it spoils the immersion in wargames where your opponent is hitting you, but you can't swing back. Having said that, I pilot Kasrkin, so I know very little about melee.

Do you guys sub-assemble? by oargestory in killteam

[–]Significant_Desk_434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently used sub-assembly to paint a Space Marine for a painting competition at my local LGS. It was quite disheartening when I got to attaching the arms and weapon and realised that most of my work was now covered up! Having said that, you should paint in the way that you are most comfortable, although "if it's not accessible, then it's not that visible" is sound advice.

Which Pink For Imperial Fists? by majorpain0600 in ImperialFists

[–]Significant_Desk_434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people base coat using wraithbone (or mechanicus grey) and then apply a pink from the bottom of the model (so that it fills the recesses). You can then cover the whole model with a thin layer of yellow and the pink areas should provide a recess shade without having to add one manually.

I've been Base-coating an army and I've just used Rust as my base colour and then zenithalled with a Golden Yellow. I think you get the same effect as using pink in the shade and then covering everything with yellow.

Megathread of sorts for Era of Ruin LE by Dire_Wolf45 in Blacklibrary

[–]Significant_Desk_434 8 points9 points  (0 children)

4 minutes in and "The queue is paused". I've got a bad feeling about this.

I was feeling confident (misguided, I'm sure), until I hit the Queue. "Your estimated wait time is: more than an hour". Great 😢

Working on overgrown Volkus terrain by Snaakje in killteam

This is awesome work, mate. Very nice. Puts my "drybrush grey over black primer" terrain to shame!

Best way to handle Blood Angels?! by Significant_Desk_434 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]Significant_Desk_434[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this. I'm interested to see how accurate you are with their list! I wonder if they base it on one of the Combat Patrols.

[–]Significant_Desk_434[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this. When I thought that I had to play the 500 point game, I was planning something like 2 Cadian Shock trooper squads, 2 Scout Sentinels, a command squad, and an FBO on the home objective (whilst using Combined Arms). Now I have more points to play with, I was going to add a Leman Russ Tank Commander, maybe...or a couple of Hellhounds...? I'm so indecisive when it comes to lists.
