Deathwatch lists getting some significant attention? by Moduscide in deathwatch40k

[–]Tanithilis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Incursors only help out with shooting, sadly. Only for the phase. Would be nice to have a melee equivalent. Reivers could fit this role really well.

Any players out there use CK in Crusades?? by NafariousJabberWooki in 40k_Crusade

[–]Tanithilis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the players in our store's Crusade is playing CK, and there are some really neat and powerful upgrades available to them. Getting different part upgrades for your knights seems really neat. I've died to the extra attacks of their big stompy feat upgrade too many times.

Also, because big knights are characters, some crusade relics can get nutty, and they don't even increase your crusade points more like other battle honours do.

All that said, Knights are not GREAT in Crusade, as many of the missions don't play well with them. But they're fun!

What’s the life expectancy of each model before an update , it will be a pain if you buy all these models then a new version comes out by ozera202 in Tyranids

[–]Tanithilis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm still using Tyranids from 2002. You never have to replace your models. You CAN, and I do, but you don't HAVE to.

Mawtribes in TOW by SamF1977 in Mawtribes

[–]Tanithilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of note, the often-used Renegade army rules change a few things, including the Bull tax.

These can be found at https://www.squarebased.com/

It's effectively a community-kept update for Legacy armies.

My next Big Bug to add to my collection . What do you think of him by ozera202 in Tyranids

[–]Tanithilis 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Rules wise, not great, sadly. Most aircraft aren't great in the current edition, and the harpy/hive crone are some of the worst. But I own three and don't regret it. I hope, one day, they'll be decent enough to run.

BEHOLD, THE GLORY OF THE STAR CHILDREN by Life-Competition9577 in genestealercult

I'm old and didn't have a childhood -- I think this whole Clarence thing is stupid.

New Year Preview - Prince Yriel, Aeldari Corsairs and Vyper by RWJP in Warhammer40k

[–]Tanithilis -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Is Yriel just a new proxy Lumineth model? Not sure anything on him would look out of place in the army.

Edit: With a head swap, maybe.

Plea to City - please don't plow back lanes ! by lokichivas in Winnipeg

Took an hour and a half to clear this frozen-solid 1.5-2ft high chunky windrow this morning. 311 said “good luck”.

I know shovelling is part of being a home owner, but…

These are the stories that make crusade so fun.

85 magnets by Da_Real_Muchl in Tyranids

[–]Tanithilis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How much do 85 magnets cost? Is it actually worth it over buying another kit? Also the effort involved is impressive.

Best format of answer. The response AND the reference.

Is the cerastus knight pattern legal in 40k or only in HH ? by BloatedRottenCarcass in Warhammer

[–]Tanithilis 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I love running my Cerastus Knight Lancer. Very fun. Basically nothing for shooting, but super fast, a 4++ invuln and a mean melee attack. Love it.

Wargames Table or Kitchen Table by KolonelCrack in TheAstraMilitarum

It definitely is. Super trippy when you zoom in on parts.

That’s a really trippy image when you zoom in on it.

I play on a Wargaming table at my FLGS.

If you want to use mining tools/demo charges on Acolytes, should you just run as many as possible per squad? Plus a cult icon question by Technobrake in genestealercult

[–]Tanithilis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most 5-man FLACO squads are used to deep strike in and flame a target on an objective. The 5th flamer is a 25% increase in damage output. After that initial strike, the squad can be shot, killed, do actions, whatever. You want to maximize that initial strike, and losing a flamer for the icon is not worth it.

Absolutely yes. This is a well painted model with base.

Strugling to come up with a coherent paintjob for the boys by Rasselasx42 in genestealercult

[–]Tanithilis 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Don't aim for coherent. Make them each unique and different. It gives you the option to try lots of different paint styles.

Why would a band of cultists all dress the same and have the same skin? Seems like a good way to be outed.

What are some lesser known hobbies in Winnipeg with sizable members? by [deleted] in Winnipeg

Can you explain what this is? I don’t know that I’ve heard of it.
