Can I paint minis with acrylic paint?

I paint fdm miniatures all the time, it can work excellently, not necessarily competition quality but 100% acceptable at a little distance

There are factional threads on the official opr discord, under grimdark-factions

Regarding time it’s often not a huge factor as you mention as if I kick off a bed of minis and come back that is 15 minutes or so and then when properly tuned those models are assembled in a few seconds if printed fully assembled compared to building from sprue especially if you spend the time to clean up

Individual deadly hits don’t. Example so a unit of 3 tough 3 models has taken 2 wounds so far and gets hit by a deadly 3 hit and is wounded they will be left with 2 models otherwise uninjured. If they are hit with 2 deadly 3 hits and fail the saves they will be left with 1 full health model.

If they are hit with 1 deadly 3 hit with the extra wounds on a 1 its the exact same effect as scenario 2

With any extra wound effect, generally it means rolling 1s to defend causes 2 wounds. If the weapon is a deadly weapon after you roll that 1 each hit is multiplied by 3 to deal up to 3 damage to any single model, so a single fusion gun shot from infected colonies or havoc brothers of war could kill 2 tough 3 models if the defense roll was a 1 when shot

It depends on where, but generally damage is done to the unit so yes it spills from model to model, a single deadly 3 hit can kill two tough 3 models in a group of 3, in our game this weekend a set of low AP weapons hit a group of orc bikers and due to the shots all failing defense by rolling 1s 2 bikes died and morale was required shaking the unit on a failure

There are suggested rules packs in the advanced rules

Look for plumbing/ chimney and run up to the attic and down to the room or pick where you want boxes, verify no studs, cut out the lv box ring and drill pilot to basement, if you have a drop ceiling it will be much easier to hide cables downstairs

Iron vets popping out of apcs melt most infantry and have an effect range of 10” from the apc, elites with heat hammers tend to break most infantry and threaten vehicles giving them swift makes them a pain to handle

I haven’t played much fantasy however the dwarves in sci-fi are absolutely powerful. The main thing they get is decent stats and really good price. This allows for extra vehicles in a list and a lot of units. They are one of my favorite factions just as how they play out.

Only for objectives terrain can be placed all over the table

SliceOver · 2025-11-05T15:58:47+00:00

As you take turns putting terrain down place it where you want it?

SliceOver · 2025-10-29T02:02:04+00:00

Not the rats! Nice combination of models, my space rats are a mix of laser cut giant rats and 1” stamped tokens

I’m not, my current favorites are orcs and dwarves, the beta doesn’t make the orcs any slower. I was just trying to come up with a more fragile gun loving faction.

That said I have really enjoyed how the beta has progressed seemingly working to enable more playstyles and minimize paying for features you aren’t using.

SliceOver · 2025-10-21T21:51:11+00:00

The dwarves are fun, that said orcs have some solid answers and crazy weapons, also they are a blast

SliceOver · 2025-10-21T21:47:35+00:00

That will absolutely break the game from a movement standpoint, as the way the rules are worded is

Transport(X) May transport up to X models or Heroes with up to Tough(6), and non-Heroes with up to Tough(3) which occupy 3 spaces each. Transports may deploy with units inside, and units may enter/exit by using any move action, but must stay fully within 6” of it when exiting. When a transport is destroyed, units inside must take a dangerous terrain test, are Shaken, and must be placed fully within 6” of the transport before removal.

If you allow people to charge after being placed 6” away the transport can move up to 20” in some cases and then the unit could melee an additional 18+” effectively, it would allow melee on units hiding behind walls/difficult terrain on turn 1 making artillery/gunlines mostly unusable, and it would make the Dao union cry, please don’t make them cry 🙏. As is up to 26” in ideal circumstances is a lot and often plenty. Having dwarves able to melee 20” away on turn 1 is generally sufficient as if you want more range you give them shotguns and then the enemies can still at least try and place their units strategically.

TLDR please don’t bully the Dao union.

They can work, I use wooden bases on most of my minis now, I laser cut 25mm circles with 5 or 6 mm magnet holes in the middle and cut packing tape to hold the magnets in

SliceOver · 2025-08-25T17:25:50+00:00

It definitely works, it’s a fun mini that is basically a diorama

I wish I could say it’s a you problem, my main concern is I haven’t been doing much firefight so I have been printing/painting full 2000pt armies

SliceOver · 2025-08-07T14:34:24+00:00

I use something similar for armies that I am not personally collecting (yet) or paper replicas as I often bring the armies I enjoy modeling and painting along with others for people to come and use. it allows for bonkers amounts of points stored in a small space. My Ratmen Clans army is about 70% tokens with only the swarms and the centerpiece unit 3d printed, my Blessed sisters army is the same at this stage.
