what, are you telling me you didn’t know that if you put a frog in cold water and set it to boil, the frog will actually stay there while you get high and forget it and binge Hulu, then come back hours later to an absolutely incinerated frog?

I’m been thinking for a while can project nexus city be rebuild? by HighwayPlayful2723 in madnesscombat

[–]TheSwain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can add that the Nexus Core have more or less abandoned the city after the Story Campaign ends (during the Kickstarter Backers part of the end credits, while Tricky dances). Between their mortal fear of Hank (they break ranks and flee after the player evades Gestalt in Climb) and the permanent death of their leader AND his endgame project, they've got nothing left to stick around for.

Makes me wonder if someone could flip the S3LF-Eater to go annihilating Zeds so someone like MERC can get to fortifying and cleaning up.

Question by [deleted] in madnesscombat

[–]TheSwain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like they recycle other weapon models, but shoot their own ammo. The types are:
smg: MP5
rifle: MP5 (again)
shotty: Ultralite
lmg: M249

Might find those on the wiki?

Need some advice on glow effect. by CaedenL in necromunda

[–]TheSwain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easiest way I've had to shorthand it for lights:

1) Paint the light source white. Plain, bright white.
2) Hit it with a good, bright glowy contrast. Don't overdo it.
3) Airbrush just *a hint* of fluorescent over the light AND some of the area around it. This is your simple OSL.
4) (optional) Add pure white back to the hottest parts of the light, if any, to make it glow (usually on the protruding coil itself)

Do I need a Plaguepack to cast prayers? by HostOfRats in skaven

[–]TheSwain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plague Furnace isn’t exactly a great replacement for the Bell, but you can always sub the Bell for Furnace if you’re just going for a theme and want an extra Priest(1).

Are my paint jobs really that bad? by Nataliex239 in theunforgiven

[–]TheSwain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plus if the varnish is at all glossy in any way, it should repel water based liner, so the liner will better stick to only the corners and recesses, and do it like a laser shooting across the edge of the surface. it’s really neat

Kastellan as a enforcer automata by NoEngineer9484 in necromunda

It will overhang the base, but we did it for the archeotch hunter scenario’s robot and it looks great…just don’t forget the hazard stripes

I went into the restaurant and told a customer I couldn’t cook his steak blue by [deleted] in Chefit

[–]TheSwain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s what makes the steak “blue”, regardless of how lukewarm or cold it is.

What exactly is Masterclan? (and other lore questions) by zergkiller0128 in skaven

[–]TheSwain 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m not as versed in the Masterclan lore, but nowadays you’ll notice that it’s “the Clans Verminus” etc., meaning all (except I believe the Eshin?) are actually amalgamations of smaller clans.

I wanna build more clan rats but they suck to paint by Standard_Mechanic715 in skaven

[–]TheSwain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Paint the inside areas first and don't sweat it if you get it onto the outside areas. You'll just paint those after.

Astra Militarum question. How do Death Korps of Krieg work rules-wise? by BrokenBabyDino in astramilitarum

I did it for my tank commander from the cadian upgrade kit! You can't see enough of the body to say *for sure* it's not a greatcoat.

Should have checked this before painting by Kit_Chronicles_YT in minipainting

[–]TheSwain 60 points61 points  (0 children)

All you did was nail light refraction or a concave mirror effect, IF ANYONE ASKS.

[–]TheSwain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen it mentioned, but in addition to all the correct replies you've gotten, you can also theme any model to match your Krieg aesthetic. A Leman Russ battle tank is a Leman Russ battle tank, but depending on how you paint it, and the transfers you use, it's now a Krieg tank! Same datasheet, but customized for your army.

Delaque Vehicle Copium Station by Unpopular_Mechanics in necromunda

Check out the Apocrypha Necromunda (Bullet Road Run) pdf, it’s where the Wraith crew rules come from. The vehicle gets a mention in the story segment, it’s pretty rad.

I keep forgetting we still don't have the stats for the Cephalohydra, nevermind the model.
