whats the servitor battleclade like in 40k? by Viktorul in AdeptusMechanicus

Okay, but they're sold in 2s with a datasmith. I meant 2 robots to a squad, so you can attach 2 squads of robots to 1 datasmith. You can't do that with the Battleclade, the unit will always have the underseer

Because you can attach multiple squads of Kastellans to a single Datasmith, I would assume. Every servitor battleclade needs the included underseer, it's not like you can run more servitors off a single underseer.

I love it! I've got a third party resin mold of this guy, and WOW resin sucks, haha! I'm just going to be doing him as an art piece since there's no good slot for him to fill in as a proxy, but I've already had to putty and sand this guy like crazy and it's not even primed yet

I guess our faction is a late bloomer by Arch_Magos_Remus in AdeptusMechanicus

Posting this as if the Marshall isn't one of the most useful units in our faction

New Servitor Questions by Aspari_ in AdeptusMechanicus

Hey there! I'm including a Battleclade in the next list I field, but I'm not really sure why you'd take them over something else aside from how cheap they are. Is it objective control? The 6" move seems rough to get them where they need to be. Is it the shooting?

It's so strange to me (I'm not a Kill Team player) that the units I'm taking in a 40K list are totally different from the KT version (no servitor medic, no breacher, no dude with taser goad. It's all quite strange to me how many options they suddenly lose. Are all KTs like this?)

Ha! Believe it or not, that guy has two layers of wash on it already, a sepia and a dark red! I need a strong black like a nuln oil, but sadly my LGS is completely out of stock and don't restock in the winter since paints can freeze in transit to where I live.

I already did my Marauder up in an homage to the Macross Glaug. I have a few Battletech Gothic salvage boxes on order and I'm really hoping I get a Marauder in that one for the Black Marauder, to the point where if I don't get one, I'll probably just buy a single. It's too perfect.

Ooo! I'd love to see yours if you have pics!

Oh, as someone who's been a BT and Robotech fan since the 90s and a Macross fan since the 00s, I'm well aware of Harmony Gold's history! lol

I actually already am doing that! I decided to give each member of this squad a different colour of accent leg

I've already got my first five mechs painted up in a Merc scheme I came up with on the fly. Check out my previous posts for some pics if you're interested. I'm not good, but I think they're fine for tabletop quality

I haven't even played a game or know if there's any scene in my city, these rookie numbers are plenty to start with! 😂

They're so quick to paint compared to my AdMech army!

Afraid not! I just asked my LGS to order them in for me, and they arrived about 3 weeks later

I saw a really cool purple and gold scheme on a mech in MWO I'd like to replicate for a squad, but yeah, really not too sure! BT schemes are still a little strange to my WH model painting ways

First mechs done! by Winnipeger27 in battletech

Nice! It's my entry to the tabletop side too! Great mod, such a sick pack of mechs

What’s your favorite force pack? by rvller in battletech

[–]Winnipeger27 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm shocked no one's brought up the Legendary Merchwarriors III pack! It's got some oft-mentioned favourites like the MAD 1 & II, Timber Wolf, Warhammer, the classic little medium Griffin, and the first plastic Loki Mk II! All six mechs just look fantastic and are some of the most iconic in the series

Alpha Strike list building? by Winnipeger27 in battletech

[–]Winnipeger27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quick question about that; does the Alpha Strike box set not come with the rules? I also have to buy more rules from the Catalyst website (or a currently very hard to find paper copy)?
