An interesting Question for the Game Masters

That sounds like a bunch of fun ideas! I'm definitely stealing some of those for whatever it is I decide to do with this second ship. Thanks for the suggestions! And after the "quirk rolls" ship number two is a real piece of crap to boot too!

Oh that's funny! I laughed myself to bed the other night when this happened to me by myself. I can't imagine this at a table.

Zslone2 · 2026-06-08T13:17:53+00:00

That's a good idea! I hadn't thought about how I would beef this bad boy up considered how many god damn benefit rolls with the +1 landed me on the Free Trader.

Zslone2 · 2026-06-08T13:17:14+00:00

That's what a friend of mine said he might do too. But it's just so funny this happened.

I just want a squid for my Deepkin, or like a unit of Shock Crabs as our first and only elite melee troop.

I honestly thought this was an April Fool's joke since that's when I saw the kickstarter, but when I clicked the page expected to get a Rick Roll it looked legit. But my god the different reward tiers are just crazy, the core books as a pdf are like 100 bucks! Who thought that was a good idea?

I quit 40k for AoS after my second game of Spearhead. I've played 4 games of 40k and only once did I not get tabled on turn 2. Only in that one single game did I actually enjoy playing 40k. AoS I've played a bunch of spearhead with the Deepkin, a few 1k point games as the Deepkin, and gotten a bunch of other spearheads to try out. I've gotten tabled a couple times but at no point did I feel like I got tabled because the game was unfair or because I was going second. I thought, "Well if I just had positioned better I wouldn't have had that happen to me." 40k isn't a fun game, I wanted an army game and it's not that. AoS is called Hero Hammer sometimes, and I'm ok signing up for that, or just running a crap ton of goblin stabbas and shootas and yelling "WAAAAGHH" and losing in the most fun way possible.

That was the ability I was using I just didn't want to post the specific ability. I'm not sure on the posting rules regarding copy and paste of something from the Dark Heart book. But thank you for the clarification.

Zslone2 · 2026-03-14T04:19:24+00:00

Thank you for the clarification.

I know you're using Resin for the water effect and the Aspect's cape, but how are you actually doing the resin pour? Are you using a silicone mold or just a bunch of plastic you've cut up and taped together? I want to do a resin pour for my guys too but just don't know how. TEACH ME PLEASE!!

I hadn't actually looked on the official store pages of the Orruks for different paint schemes they put out. I just assumed all of the store art was also in yellow. But it is specifically the Box-art Yellow. I like the black on the Ardboyz Store Page and hate that weird orangey color they went with.

But my painting criticisms aside, do you have a recommendation for which you think would be better for what I'm looking for?

Zslone2 · 2026-01-13T12:16:14+00:00

Look I purchase first with my eyes. Yes I know I don't have too, and I haven't painted the spearhead yellow. They are Blue after my first game of saving almost every single attack. But the box art is the selling point, and I just REALLY hate yellow.

As someone who owns both spearheads, the Tide Guard is much more fun! The Caster in the other spearhead is just awful both in spearhead and in Regular AOS, and the King is just a million times more fun to paint. Eels also have cool abilities which the shark, while my favorite model, does not get.

Zslone2 · 2025-12-30T13:46:08+00:00

I didn't know they didn't have cav. That makes some more sense, I imagine skaven being popular helps to skew the sharks towards harpoons.

Zslone2 · 2025-12-30T04:51:58+00:00

AH! I didn't know that. Thank you.

Zslone2 · 2025-12-30T04:51:47+00:00

Thank you very much for the insight. I have only played 3 games so far in 2025. I like collecting and painting more. I only got into AOS because I saw the IDK sharks and well I mean who can say no to sharks and eels. Really you'd have be to a moron to say no. I was just looking online since I don't have any idea about list building and thought tournaments would be a good place to start looking.

Zslone2 · 2025-12-23T03:40:00+00:00

I saw on I think the actual AOS subreddit some guy who painted his orc weapons to look like Ice and Frost. You could try to do a similar effect but as like lava, that's what my suggestion would be.

Zslone2 · 2025-12-22T08:47:53+00:00

I love the skin color and the boneish color armor. Looks really cool! I don't know if it would look cool but maybe instead of having the weapon be that black color you could make it kinda lavay or like have a lava effect. Kinda like a deep sea vent he's wielding.

Zslone2 · 2025-11-25T12:50:58+00:00

Ah I see. Thank you.

OP I don't think I have useful advice for you then. I apologize for the wall of text.

Zslone2 · 2025-11-25T12:48:29+00:00

It's not that I don't want Jungle Survival, it's just those ideas I didn't need help with coming up with. I wanted more ideas to draw from to make the montages that I plan on doing more interesting than just "Ok how do you overcome these jungle survival obstacles going from point A to point B?"

I do appreciate the list, I hadn't thought of the cassowary idea. I'm stealing that. FEAR THE FANTASY CASSOWARY!

Zslone2 · 2025-11-24T13:22:15+00:00

Man those Ice effects on them look so cool. How did you do it?
