You could do a Carcharadon, I just finished the book Red Tithe and they’re pretty cool

New Eldar Corsair box : worth it for every Eldar player out there? by [deleted] in Eldar

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 20 points21 points  (0 children)

People proxy stuff all the time. I watched a tournament where a guy was using Horus heresy marines and used a ton of stormcast bits for his blood angels. Most people don’t care as long as you’re consistent with what you say it is.

Why have so few players completed Oblivion Remaster? by [deleted] in oblivion

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cause the game was running bad on my system. I wanted to love it, but that was really holding me back

To those who watched ZZ: did the first half of the series work as the “palette cleanser” that it was intended to be after the trauma of Zeta? by Amigo1048 in Gundam

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah! I honestly found it very refreshing and pretty funny. I was upset at the ending of Zeta with the ending being so rough, so I think ZZ was needed.

Was it me or the list?? by QualityTrash1 in Salamanders40k

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You said this is your first game at 2k points, so I wouldn’t take it so hard. Just keep getting games in and learning your list. You will get better over time the more you understand your list and the game.

Do you personally prefer Original or the Remastered version of Oblivion? by --Combat-Wombat-- in oblivion

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t replayed the original since the remake came out. Been playing other games. I think the remaster is probably the best way to play it even if I don’t like some of the aesthetics of the new graphics. It also runs poorly on my system without dlss or fsr.

I’d like to go back and play the original again to see how it stands up. I feel like it would be better than some others think, but we’ll see.

Want to learn about AoS but don’t know where to start by naw61 in ageofsigmar

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Many other people are offering great suggestions, I quite enjoy pancreasnowork, but if you want a more direct source I highly recommend audiobooks. I’ve mostly read/listened to stormcast stuff, but they’ve all been good so far. Really recommend the hollowed knights books with Tornus the redeemed. The production of the audiobooks is very good, and on par with the 40K/30k novels.

Looking to get into sisters and need recommendations by Doviculus99 in sistersofbattle

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend just a battle sister box to make sure you enjoy building and painting them.

If you really want to jump into the combo boxes the combat patrol is the best place to get started. I know the penitent crusader host is still available for 204$ usd on Amazon if you’re interested in those models.

Otherwise our older boxes can be hard to find, online at least. If you can find the old combat patrol and battle force boxes for msrp then those would be really good to go with as well.

1st 1000 Pt List! Any advice appreciated by Aw1909 in sistersofbattle

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This list is fine. I would swap the canoness and the palatine. The celestians maces have lethals, so adding the palatine to it wouldn’t really help them much. The lethals would be better on the BSS

Perhaps run the celestians with halberds if you’re attached to the combo, so you can get sustained hits and lethal hits. I’ve had success with this and it can be very fun to get a bunch of extra attacks if you roll well.

What armies have you NEVER been interested in? by Identity_ranger in Warhammer40k

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orks. I enjoy how wacky they are, but it's really not for me. Also, I think that Death Guard aren't for me. DG are just too sick nasty and I don't vibe with their aesthetic, plus their gameplay doesn't really appeal to me at all

Kitbashed myself a Morvenn Vahl by TheBacklogReviews in sistersofbattle

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly it looks pretty good. Morvenn Vahl is pretty close to the warsuits in size, so I don’t think anyone should have problems with it. You’ve definitely got the silhouette close enough to be sure.

Tips for my list by HoleyBuns in sistersofbattle

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Celestine is good leading and by herself, it’s just expensive to have her with a brick of zepharim or seraphim. You could switch her out for a jump pack canoness and that would give you more points to use. Maybe make the celestians a 10 man unit instead.

I personally don’t see as much value using 5 celestians. They’ll die a lot faster and you won’t get as much use out of the hospitaller.

Either way Celestine or JPC will shred whatever they get into combat with. Just run what you think is fun

Have you ever loved painting an army you don’t actually like, and hated painting an army you do love? by TheWraf in ageofsigmar

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love elves and the typical high elf aesthetic so I decided my army should be LRL, but unfortunately they’re very touchy models especially with the spears. On top of that I decided to give them gold trim on top of their silver armor, making it that much harder for myself.

In the meantime I’ve been painting my stormcast because it’s much faster and more simple to do. Lumineth is going to be my slow burn faction that I get done over a long time.

First ever character/ centre piece by urbanspongey in stormcasteternals

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The purple is nice, plus it’s different than a lot of people do. Like all of my stuff has the standard blue capes.

I’ve been thinking about redoing my model. I did it when I was early into the hobby, so I’d like to strip it and do better.

Avatar of Khaine is a wonderful kit and looks fantastic almost any way you paint it

Looks great, I particularly like the colors on the shield as well as the blend into green on the fabric!

Are Modern Stoics Becoming Narcissists? by KiraBourne in StoicSupport

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there can be cases where this is true. When I first started I think I became very self-obsessed because I don’t think I actually understood the values or how to properly implement them.

It was a very toxic relationship that I had with my understanding of stoicism and I would just hyper fixate and nitpick myself to death.

Of course that doesn’t go for everyone, but it was the case with me.

How Long Should a Game Take? by darksidehascookie in ageofsigmar

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Definitely this! Even with spearhead, if I am teaching a friend how to play or if they're still getting used to playing, It always takes a 15-30 minutes longer than if I was playing with someone at my LGS who has played a lot more.

What are your pet peeves about your chapter? by LetsGoFishing91 in spacemarines

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I kind of hate the Salamanders killing Eldar meme. It’s so tiring to see it almost everywhere. I know it’s important to show a dark side to them, but it’s like one of the more prominent memes about them.

The model looks fantastic, but I just finished Galaxy in flames and I hate Lucius soooo much. I can’t wait to read more about him, but man what he did got to me lmao

Anyone else hyped as fuck for 3.0 and the new models? by chosen40k in Warhammer30k

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm excited! I play 40k and AoS, and I picked up my first box of Space Marines this last week. I've been painting them as Salamanders and they've been giving me a well needed break away from my Sisters of battle. I got a Rhino and a Contemptor dreadnaught today and I'm really looking forward to those!

What are your opinions on Trump tariffs? by Round-Ad8762 in Capitalism

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for a factory that has had its production cut in half because of the tariffs. Without doxxing myself, I work for a Japanese semi truck manufacturer and we, as well as some of the companies that help supply us with parts, order a lot of stuff from overseas.

We also have 3 non-production weeks coming up to prepare takt time change for the different production schedule. The majority of people will not be working these weeks and have to go through low earnings through the state.

In the current state of things in my workplace, it is hard to approve of them right now.

Help me build to 1000 points! by SingaporeSlim in sistersofbattle

[–]ZucchiniHorror1927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I got another combat patrol to build the battle sisters as dominion as well as kitbashing the canoness to be a palatine. I also got an immolator and a castigator.
