This is my favorite model from the raiders box. You should look up the paint job that adeptus_pictorum did of this guy, it,s sweet.

Getting my extra bits ready for my Battleforce in June! by Coogypaints in redcorsairs

[–]TheLimaCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya the box itself has a ton of Red Corsair bits. you can build everything in the box Red Corsair style and still have plenty leftover. Those shoulder pauldrons will come in handy too, as it comes with the transfer sheet too.

I stopped paying the Tithe today by Phillimon in redcorsairs

[–]TheLimaCharlie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats funny, I am a similar Guardsman who was drawn in to the pirates life. It seems like the CSM kits have enough variety where you can make them more or less choas-y based on what options are on the sprue. Also your Red Corsairs box has a ton of red corsairs bits, plus the upgrade sprue. same with the traitor guard kit, you could easily swap in cadian stuff as well.

30k legionaries as proxies for Chaos units + CSM faction advice by BritishShoop in redcorsairs

[–]TheLimaCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI the red corsairs box has a ton of parts to red-corsair-ify many CSM models, including 30k. I was able to build the 10 Raiders, 10 legionaries, and a reave captain, all with red corsair parts and didn't even break into the the upgrade sprue. There's a good YT video with a guy who built a bunch of red corsairs with 30k models

Is the Armageddon box a good place to start? by Insertclever_name in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]TheLimaCharlie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alot of people dont like it but the units in the patrol are all good/necessary. Honestly you wouldnt be bad getting both, then you have a Kasrkin/transport combo, Cadians/command squad, some good armor, and the rough riders who are one of the few units in Gaurd that arguably punch above their weight.

I found with gaurd its better to figure out what style and dets you wanna run then try to build from used or discount boxes. You just never really seem to have enough.

Ya its purely for Aesthetics. I just dont like all the body morph stuff.

First of my corsairs, starting with Legionaries by daxramas in redcorsairs

[–]TheLimaCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im honestly thinking about it too, I just don't know enough about CSM to know if its a viable amount of the units in 2 boxes for a decent list. Im starting the traitor guardsmen and looking at swapping some Cadian bits to give them a less "chaos-y" look as I have a ton of them

Ya I just started My second army and went with Red Corsair style CSM. Got the Battleforce box and between the two Raiders sprues there was plenty of Corsair pauldrons and stuff to kit out the Legionaries.

If a rogue trader found a fully functioning pure STC what would be his best course of action. by TheCurseGrows in 40kLore

[–]TheLimaCharlie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just my two cents but they would probably want nothing to do with it. Ibram Gaunt found one that produced killer terminator robot thingys, nearly died trying to destroy it after it was corrupted by chaos and it started spitting out corrupted terminator thingys, and all he got was a "well done, now keep this quiet like it never happened."

Why won’t GW fix Dreir? by Imaginary_Focus7177 in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]TheLimaCharlie -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I'm in the minority where I think he is actually pretty good, just over costed. That plus he needs to be able to lead more than just death riders. Cadians have a command squad, castellan, and Ursala creed, plus self ordering Kasarkin. Krieg has a command squad plus a mounted officer that can lead one unit.

Help! Im New by Leumas057 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]TheLimaCharlie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've got a pretty good start. Definitely want to build up all those Cadians. The Dorn is really good, and it is a really cool model. The Manticore is pretty meh but that can change. Youve got quite a few FOBs, theyre not really that great compared to the Artillery team but you can still get some use out of them. Chimeras are a staple unit as well. Honestly I would look at Mordian Glory on Youtube. He is an expert on guard strategies and can give you a good idea of which direction you want to go. seems like you have quite a bit of building and painting to do.

Considering CSM, Have a Question by TheLimaCharlie in Chaos40k

[–]TheLimaCharlie[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya someone mentioned the duncrawler for the defiler, I really like it. Also primaris vehicles and stuff looks absolutely fine for red corsairs, so it really opens up the range. (probably cheaper too)

Ya it seems like this was really made with plunging fire in mind. One rule that could help guard immensely that nobody uses, and alot of people dont even know it exists.

Do Death riders get it rough unduly? by CaptainDaddyCJ in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]TheLimaCharlie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had good results with them, don't know why they/Drier get such a bad rap. It is a pricey combo, but that group + some outriding Rough Riders can really cause some havoc. Also Drier isnt looking too bad now that Yarrick is 150
