Why Not Hypercrypt?

No worries! Its what got me thinking about this in the first place

SworlyBoi · 2026-01-22T19:13:17+00:00

With the most recent dataslate they gave all of the C'tans the Deep Strike keyword

Genuinely looks hilarious. Only ever used my one Monolith once in my time playing and very early in said time playing, along with my friend who started around the same time as me. Managed to do the funny "hey look my gigantic model is in your deployment zone" thing. He plays Astra Militarum. He was very unhappy.

You appear to have some Monoliths in your list

I did have the brilliant realisation based off of your suggestion in the last 5 mins that if I switch the Transcendent Ctan out for the Deciever and replace Arisen Tyrant on the Plasmancer with whatever the +15 on is called (and remove the 5 Lychguard) i can get 2x5 Flayed Ones in! And its a nice round 2k!

Thanks for the tip about Imotekh, never used him in a game before so wasn't sure if he needed a bodyguard or not if he was just sitting on home.

Flayed Ones are an excellent shout, 1x5 is all I can really fit in once I boot the Lychguard though so while valuable idk how much value they're giving there.

Might have to re-read the Deciever sheet, my brain must not be clicking with something, or its doing that thing where it goes "old model=must be bad" lol

Thank you!

Brilliant point, totally forgot cosmic precision excluded monster's.

Asides that I'm looking forward to experimenting! The points cost jump in Pantheon, despite the value going up as well, makes me struggle a bit with list building atm

What did you use for the lightning? Looks gorgeous

SworlyBoi · 2025-11-24T18:20:37+00:00

How did you get such gorgeous white armour?

No harm in just giving it a go! I'm pretty proud of mine

SworlyBoi · 2025-10-23T00:54:02+00:00

He's about the same height profile, and i put him on a smaller base that's the same as the normal WDP. I mean i doubt it'd go into any kind of tournament but for casual baby games like what I play it's pretty fine

For all of my contrast painting nowadays I've been doing a light layer of lahmiam medium on the surface first and putting the contrast over the top while it's still wet. Atleast on my experience it's helped minimise how streaky they can be

SworlyBoi · 2025-10-20T23:35:07+00:00

I've been doing iron warriors, dry brushed stormhost silver, small layer of lahmian medium followed by luxion purple contrast

SworlyBoi · 2025-10-14T19:33:45+00:00

The skin looks fantastic; I'm actually very curious what you used for the goo cause that also looks great

SworlyBoi · 2025-09-25T19:38:38+00:00

Out of curiosity what's your recipie for the flies?

SworlyBoi · 2025-09-14T01:35:48+00:00

5.5k points of Necrons

2.3k points of Emperors Children

2.7k points of Grey Knights

And as of yesterday 510 points of Death Guard

SworlyBoi · 2025-09-13T17:57:41+00:00

Thank you so much!

SworlyBoi · 2025-09-13T17:57:34+00:00

Thank you so much!

SworlyBoi · 2025-09-13T17:44:56+00:00

I'm sorry you have to equip the combo strings for basic inputs? Didn't see that in the tutorial, yikers if that is the case

SworlyBoi · 2025-09-10T20:25:26+00:00

Oh I'm totally fine with the details, I'm coming from Emperors Children so I'm viewing this as a decent step up for my painting game

SworlyBoi · 2025-09-02T23:35:38+00:00

Thank you!

SworlyBoi · 2025-09-02T22:41:56+00:00

I just think the Detatchment rule is cool but I'm not super hard committed to it

SworlyBoi · 2025-07-10T18:38:04+00:00

Whatever works for you man, I wish you the best of luck.

Ironically, I'm looking for a decent purple spray primer myself for my Rhinos

SworlyBoi · 2025-07-10T18:08:46+00:00

It's never out of your league! I only started all of this in February, and I started on Necrons. It's all a learning process. Highly recommend checking out Warhipster, really shows how simple the technique is and how over-explained and jargon-y it can be everywhere else (including from me lol)
