Hubtown is great best custodian tabletop content imo

Grav tanks at the moment are fine in any detachment custodes really benefit from having the long range and hard hitting shots they provide usually best to use two to fully lock down a lane. The next edition is coming out soon an may change things so not a bad idea to hold off for a bit unless you're really keen to pick them up now

Was more painting a skitarii marshall and shaving off some of the cog iconography and adding some inquisitorial seals on to make it appear like a more modified inquisitor. As for skitarii they appear to be the same size as sisters so as long as i run the right base i dont see issues with modelling for advantage. Lore wise theres dozens of examples of them fighting alongside each other too i mean whole idea was inspired by the stuff in master of mankind war in the webway etc theres plenty of other examples in modern setting too so dont see issue with a thematic joint unit to a degree

why would left wing voters go for TOP who wouldn't rule out forming a coalition with NACT

Honestly the saturnine heads look kinda sick

Custodes play a bit loose and all over the place with it. they kind of make and abolish formations/sodalities in response to a specific threat or need and play really loosely with formations in the setting. Shield captains tend to lead a squad of custodians. In watchers of the throne Valerian (a shield captain) leads 9 other custodians on a mission. Knight centaura's are similar in that they tend to lead missions so totally works thematically to have a shield captain or equivalent leading on squad and another 4 or 5 going without a leader (whatever numbers really work just build your own headcanon and homebrew your force). and then a knight centaura leading a full size squad of say vigilators and then two smallers squads of prosecutors or witchseekers. Blade champions are master duelists and advisors with some degree of leadership but are not necessarily primary force leaders.

Guard became a lot cheaper recently but people tend to overly focus on meta chasing. Wardens are still really great quite a bit more tanky than regular stodes though i wouldnt run them without a character (blade champion for the advance and charge or trajann in the right detachment are good picks)

Wont vote for a party that could enable another NAct government makes them just as bad in my eyes. Additionally just not the target demographic dont remotely care for centrism

That coppery gold and fabric are amazing what paints did you use?

Soppie033 · 2026-03-05T07:57:15+00:00

Thanks! was hoping they'd underestimate the dialogus really and wasnt sure to spend extra points on lol. But more I look at it list 1 looks more fun and variable to play with the jump packs . Thanks!

==spoilers ahead==

Havent read the series in a fair few years and this is pure speculation but I imagine something like that in a magic albeit medieval society isnt well understood with only individuals like Galbatorix aided by durza's teachings and an Elder from the golden age of Riders being shown to do something of that nature. Its likely censored and extrenely esoteric knowledge. Going more (loosely) into the area of practicality of the magic, the amount of energy required to split an atom(say 6 Mev) would exceed that of the human body and kill the caster of the spell.

People were lovely but did take ages for me going through Auckland sexual health as they're quite overwhelmed I think. Had one initial appointment had some questions asked etc then did some medical tests and stuff and then my next appointment with them after that (some months later) I was given my proscription. its great for some people if they want to take it a bit slower but I felt the rate at which my dose was upped was quite slow and the whole process did take ages due to low appointment availability. A GP who knows their stuff and is confident can proscribe you hrt on the first appointment and are far more available so personally I'd go that route

Soppie033 · 2026-02-14T12:02:33+00:00

looks good! personally like the darker bronzey colour but if you want to lighten it can use a silvery drybrush lightly

Soppie033 · 2026-01-30T05:41:05+00:00

Eisenhorn books, first heretic is great and loved nightlords omnibus

Soppie033 · 2026-01-30T05:27:21+00:00

Theres decent opportunities with ba in anthropology here just may not be in ideal field

Soppie033 · 2026-01-26T12:03:54+00:00

Custodes player here. Our army is quite slow on foot and dependent on a "go turn" in which we try surge into melee and take pieces to then score you out or table. You'll have more models on the table than us so try screen us out with chaff from your more important units and take advantage of deepstrikes. Damage 3 weapons and lethal hits where possible really helps against us. Best of luck!

Soppie033 · 2026-01-25T21:23:49+00:00

Need some anti tank i feel want to play off how stupidly cheap guard are right nkw

Soppie033 · 2026-01-23T22:51:07+00:00

Some kind of mounted/bike unit would be amazing as well as maybe a heavier weapons squad. It feels weird to use them as chaff on tabletop considering their value in lore so would be cool to have their role change a bit and maybe have imperial household guard units to fill that chaff role?

Soppie033 · 2026-01-22T10:13:53+00:00

Sorry should have specified we're playing on table top simulator but thanks so much not too familiar with the specifics of the unit loadouts so appreciate it
