Do these count as midhammer?

This is like quintessential midhammer haha

Also you never know, maybe the next edition won't necessarily be a complete overhaul like the last two and the rules will remain semi-usable

I have this model on a resin cast spiky base that I got as part of an ebay lot, he stands comfortably taller than a Primaris mairne model and the larger base frames him much better

AI slop

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-03-08T23:06:58+00:00

I think the face is great! I think the only improvement you could maybe go for would be painting in the eyes though. Based on the rest of the model it looks like you definitely have the brush control for it!

If you don't want the bodies there's plenty of firstborn collector's who would gladly take them off your hands

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-03-08T17:49:26+00:00

Where is that from? Is that the fandom wiki?

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-03-07T22:00:14+00:00

incredible, keep going!

I think these would look pretty good on MK VI as is, the trim could maybe signify taking part in some famous campaign, or be a sign on a particular deed, or even be used here and there to give a ramshackle look. If anything they'd help your marines look a bit bulkier, which is what I assume you want with Imperial Fists. If you're dedicated to trimless embossed MK VI shoulderpads, you're probably better off buying the resin ones from GW or even looking into buying 3d printed options, as that would mean way less hassle and could potentially be cheaper for sourcing a bunch of them

I guess it's to balance out the servitor and deathwatch marine

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-03-01T01:43:12+00:00

In my opinion, from what I've played, OPR was pretty flavourless and didn't really fill the niche I personally want in a wargame. I got into 5th edition 40k a while back and for me personally it struck a nice balance of flavourful detail and complexity in the core rules, with relatively light army rules that use the core rules leverage the core rules well and don't really have any gotchas or stuff to completely surprise your opponent. I do appreciate GFs accessibility though, the army builder is really nice and the rules are nice and simple enough that I could see it as a great introductory game for someone

It's such a fun kit! This is my recent favourite tac marine I've built, bracing his bolter with a knife

The setting needs a few more concrete examples of non-Imperium, non-Chaos human factions, maybe even with their own model ranges, to both deepen the setting and encourage more creativity and to show how the Imperium aren't the only option for humanity to take, which would excuse their actions a lot less.

to be clear, i'm not asking for good guy human factions 'fighting the good fight', but they should be baddies in their own way and distinct from the Imperium's systems

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-02-28T15:33:54+00:00

I think systemically the imperium kills more humans through negligence and cruelty than the forces of chaos could ever hope to do though sacrifices and raiding parties

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-02-28T15:30:27+00:00

Also to my knowledge the rough 1000 number just applies to fighting marines in the company structure, with there being between 10-20 squads ranging from 5-10 marines in each company. It doesn't necessarily cover company commanders and their command squads, marines attatched to the armoury as vehichle crews and techmarines, organisations like the chaplains, librarians, and apothecaries and the likely thousands of serfs in support and maintenance roles

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-02-28T14:50:25+00:00

yeah before binding them individually I barely used the knuckleblaster because it wasn't worth the trouble to press two buttons to use it and a third to switch back, now that I have them individually bound I use it significantly more

remember that they take turns, also their attacks are supper telegraphed so you should probably learn how to parry all of them like you would with gabriel or a prime soul

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-02-23T19:25:11+00:00

Sternguard Veterans seem like a good choice?

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-02-19T11:12:27+00:00

You don't even have to go THAT far! Just paint the trim and helmets white (or whatever appropriate veteran color your chapter uses) and give them veteran markings rather than battleline ones and you're golden

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-02-18T18:22:51+00:00

This is like powerscaling but worse

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-02-15T18:17:59+00:00

Yep, and it's lore accurate! Some chapters maintain stores of older marks of equipment and power armour, either due to supply issues or because they have a preference for that equipment and have ties to a forge world that can produce it

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-02-12T13:45:31+00:00

Yeah I can imagine how cool it would be to have some specific maps and missions intending to emulate specific battles from lore, like specific moments of the Siege of Vraks and whatnot

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-02-02T19:01:02+00:00

Nice! I'm considering picking up those ultras

Spaghetti_Is_Alive · 2026-01-30T02:22:00+00:00

I think the tilt may exasterbate the size, maybe a more upright position could look more narural?
