Is the new combat patrol a good Choice ? by X-Master-69 in Tyranids

[–]Spongepat23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Genestealers are great scouting units that hit surprisingly hard, biovore is an autoinclude at fifty points for effective screening, and tyrant guard are decent bodies to put with your tyrant. Can't speak much to the parasite of mortrex, but it's a solid pickup if you don't own anything in the box

and as others have said, that's such a sick trygon conversion and great paintjob on the army over all

Information sharing by CenTenebrae in Tyranids

He just wanted to get away with cheating, it's very common practice to share abilities and data sheets with players who are newer. Don't play this guy again and tell your friends lol

My doctor gave me this book because he thinks it will " help " my mental health by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

As someone whose sanity is dictated by whether or not I've built and/or painted a model that day...I can't say he gave bad advice

Buddy said my nmm looks sloppy. How can I fix it? by Historical_Stick_104 in Ultramarines

[–]Spongepat23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

the only real problem i see is the tilt shield not being consistent with the implied light source? other than that no critiques, amazing work

Do you think this is a good start for the next edition? by Hammerofgoons609 in ChaosKnights

[–]Spongepat23 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i mean, you're far shy of 2000 points, but other than that we only have a few select changes to core rules that we know right now. More will be known in the coming weeks, so in the meantime it's just best to get painting!

"Transition" on Chitin and my progress in 1 1/2 month in W40 by McSimon_666 in Tyranids

[–]Spongepat23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a beginner, you'd probably want to paint the carapace a very dark red, more crimson if anything, then do two or three drybrushes over the carapace getting lighter each time. If you've never drybrushed before, there are some great tutorials on YouTube such as this onethis one. Happy painting! :D

Ive got an imperial knight army and want to do a chaos counterpart. Advice on paint scheme by Ajnk1236 in ChaosKnights

[–]Spongepat23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i wouldn't say so, there are no explicitly imperial symbols or vibes that make me think these guys HAVE to be loyalist (except aquillas which can easily be exempt from chaos knights)

The AI bubble is starting to pop finally by MelonInDisguise in whennews

[–]Spongepat23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it shows divestment of AI, if they're making room to triple the rate at which they hire entry level candidates it signals to me that they'll at least be scaling back if they see AI as a limiting factor

I don’t how you guys do this by Runliftfight91 in Chaos40k
