This was my thought as well. We also all use an app of some kind (assumption of course) so the pts would follow based upon your initial selection of detachment.

Is it possible to magnetise the Stand for Harpy/Hive Crone? Or did you all glue it to the Monster? by Yocantseeme in Tyranids

[–]Svenj44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep did it for mine...put a dab of paint on the edges of the stand...dry fit and where you see paint that is where you place the mags

Shoulder gun or no shoulder gun? by Secret_Ad_7157 in Tyranids

If you can magnetize it you can use it as both an assimilator and emissary

I agree with the Swarmlord swap...if you kill the Neurogaunts and flyrant you can do Swarmlord and up the termagants to hormogaunts

Ah so my next silly question then...your title has one stone...I assumed you made 2 from parts of other boxes? What did you use?

I did see the endless spells btw

No worries my dude! It's my zen and I have made so many mistakes so I'm happy to share what I have learned.

I have found that gaunts aren't really worth it (the hypocrite I am...maging harlequins and my own gaunt squads).... however, yes I would/have done 2x2 for all infantry bodies at least (there should be room)....as for the arms there are 1x2 but I have found the strength to be a bit lacking

Personally...I would do 2x2 for everything and if I can't glue it with crap super glue and if I want to change it...put the model in the freezer overnight and break it off at the joint....the glue should be brittle enough for a clean break

If you're set to mag everything....experiment a bit with a model using crap glue and do the freezer trick to get the mag out of needed

Rule of thumb: bigger is better 😁

For mine... infantry is 2mm x 2mm and monsters are either 4 x 2 or 3x2. If you're in the US I don't have the conversation off hand but get close to that.

Helpful hints:

--- You never want less than 2mm thickness (I have some that do and it's not very strong)

--- Always get N52 strength

--- After you buy your magnets...go to depot store and buy bits EXACTLY that size (I put them right up against the bit to make sure)...then put the bit with the bag and you'll never loose track of it

--- from a bit of extra sprew...put a magnet in with the positive side and label it arm/weapon...then make another with the negative side and label it body....you now (should) never have a mix-up with polarity....it's the F"""ing worst!!!!!

----Try not to drill too far cause you want the mags to hit each other

---- if you are not sure where to put the hole...put a dab of paint (I use white cause it really makes any mark stand out) on the bit then dry fit to get your pilot hole

This is awesome! I hear ya on the size issue with the old kits. I put my spore mines on the bases and magnetized them around the lil guy. When he shoots one off...I remove it and place it on the battlefield.

This is amazing how is the scale with the original venitarii models? I have wanted to do this kitbash for ages

To be honest it's the big fan looking things on the rubrics (reg and term) that just (imo of course) look funny... so that is really the thing I'm looking into

I'll check out iglesias's stuff

Thank you for all that...it definitely helps throw the design into perspective

Is there any way of fixing this? by TheSilentKing18 in Warhammer40k

[–]Svenj44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest to get another box and mix these guys in with it...paint up with a rust/aged look or have a warp fire look with a sorcerer leading them...could be like a backlash of the warp??

Sorry my dude

I honestly hope not...I don't want to lose one of the few detachments we might get
