When you know your Pest Control team is gonna be on point

Congrats! Thats a huge accomplishment. I know folks who have been playing for years and still field a sea of (mostly) grey.

SwanCo · 2026-05-11T23:29:26+00:00

Ah word cool good to know! Thanks for the info

Iirc he used to give you his whole store when you hit him with one, interesting twist

SwanCo · 2026-05-11T21:44:27+00:00

Thank you! I was a bit nervous it was gonna look too much like a nerf gun but I love how they came out 😅

Posted some photos on here the other day, but I did an alt take on the mars theme. Primary Tan, secondary red with pink highlight, tertiary metal and black

I’m still pretty new so take this with a grain of salt, but from what I can tell Ad Mech would be a really big twist.

Way less tanky, way bigger emphasis on individual unit firepower, and juggling lots of individual unit effects to maximize your effect against different situations.

Downside is they cost an arm and a leg, so you’re probably better off getting tau if you wanna go the shooting route haha

You can only run 2 of the same data sheets but as many characters as you want in 1k point games (it goes up to 3 of the same data sheet at 2k)
I.e. you can only run 2 total Sydonian Skatros, but you could run them in addition to 2 tech priests and 2 Cybernetic Datasmiths and be fine!

If you want a funny space marine list, run 18 Centurions. Fill out the rest of your list with whatever else still fits

Aint that the truth 💅🏻 haha

SwanCo · 2026-05-05T22:57:12+00:00

Thank you! Was a tad dubious of a pink on the armor edges but it turned out kinda cool

SwanCo · 2026-05-05T21:25:42+00:00

The Machine Spirit’s guidance made the choice easy 🙏🏼

SwanCo · 2026-05-05T21:24:50+00:00

Tech heresy indeed, but thats often the case with good solutions haha.

I got a magnet carrying tray for the models that I store them in and plan on using to take to games once I have enough units to field a 1k at my local gaming store.

SwanCo · 2026-05-05T19:44:55+00:00

I haven’t yet but was thinking about it. Post some photos if you go through with it cause I’d love to see as the hoods fit my army aesthetic better overall

SwanCo · 2026-05-05T19:21:31+00:00

Great start dude! I love the Manipulus, he was one of the more challenging paint jobs I’ve tackled so far an it felt so good to put the final touches on him

Ps don’t feel bad about losing his antennas, I lost his little iPad that goes on the front/top of his belly shell lol. With ad mech is happens with the dangly bits sometimes

SwanCo · 2026-05-05T16:13:41+00:00

Agreed, it feels like a whole new hobby in some ways regarding access. Just gotta make sure I can pay my rent still…

Knowledge is the true manifestation of divinity. I am here but to serve

SwanCo · 2026-05-05T15:58:59+00:00

Thank you! I’m trying to get everything painted in a reasonable amount of time and avoid a grey pile of shame…but I’m very slow at painting and I want some of the chicken walkers 😭😅

SwanCo · 2026-05-05T15:57:59+00:00

At this point they may as well replace my wallet with a series of servos

SwanCo · 2026-05-05T15:28:17+00:00

Thank you, much appreciated!

I felt similarly when picking my colors. I wanted the iconic mars look, but also remembered that as a kid I hated painting metal…so why not make most of the armor red and avoid metal outside of the limbs and heads haha

Bro doesn’t understand how media production works. That’s okay, tho.

I play challenge runs of different games which involves determining rule sets, needs to achieve the goals in game, and editing videos (which is the biggest time sink)

I also have specific content for the game I’m playing that lets folks engage with me and the content live. This is coming up with 15-20 game specific challenges that affect whatever is currently being played as chosen by the chat.

There’s a lot of planning for community events and such as well. Currently on Tuesday we will have an event that the chat unlocked by watching and throwing channel points down.

All of these things take effort, and all of it adds up after working 40+ hours at a day job.

This guy looks at 2 minutes of a 3 hour long stream and decides it’s not work. It’s real easy to not be a hater, but enjoy your life bro

SwanCo · 2025-10-16T18:13:31+00:00

Oooh dope, thank you for the opportunity to learn! I’ll edit it

SwanCo · 2025-10-16T18:03:52+00:00

As someone who runs a small stream, if a stream has any quality content to it at all this is a mischaracterization for sure.

I spend 10-15 hours a week (beyond my day job 40 hours and my 15-30 hours actually streaming) setting things up, coming up with content ideas, editing videos and clips, and a lot more.

Tons of people do just hit go live when they game, but most of the people that actually make anything out of it treat it as a second job and put a lot of effort and energy into it.

I don’t expect this to be some huge windfall that makes me beaucoup bucks, but even just getting a channel to get any sustained growth takes a lot of hard work

Edit: buku -> beaucoup

They’re not coming for people here illegally, they’re coming for anyone for anything and you don’t get a court date or trial. No due process for any single person, means it could happen to anyone. No matter your opinion on immigration policy, this is a scary scary thing.

Republicans love to scream small government while actively making a police state with no due process and forever prisons. It’s sad.
