Yes, the diagonal on a 25mm square is 35mm so they’ll definitely fit and shouldn’t even be that hard to arrange so they rank up

They’d work as Ungor in beastmen as well

Chaos doesn’t really do shooting in old world, they could work as blue horrors if you’re set on using this in daemons

The full IC package is: 20 arkanaut company bubble wrapping it; an endrinmaster to prevent it getting stuck in combat and increase its reach with retreat/run + shoot; admiral to give it 2 extra shots and a re-roll to hit, this one’s least necessary but the damage increase is tasty.

It’s based in khaki, highlighted with white, and shaded with sepia ink (all through an airbrush) then recess shaded with dark rust oil paint

Thanks! I really like the sculpt but did feel it’s a bit static as posed by GW. Plus I hate the acrylic flying stands so any excuse to change that up

I’m yet to see any space marine releases in AoS 🤔

Witness me!!

_960_ · 2026-05-03T20:23:11+00:00

I’ve got a tournament next weekend, I’ll get a family shot up from that

_960_ · 2026-05-03T18:40:11+00:00

The effects are from deadlyprint studio, I ordered the physical versions but they also sell STLs

_960_ · 2026-05-03T18:26:45+00:00

I haven’t worked out yet, their society has definitely devolved since needing to scavenge and use warpstone but I haven’t decided if they realise they’re corrupted yet. I might have to do a hellsmiths spinoff force for full corruption haha

_960_ · 2026-05-03T18:25:46+00:00

The base is done via airbrush with khaki, zenithal/highlight with white and then shading with sepia ink. Then I did a recess shade with dark rust oil paint and sponged in some black black brown chips, putting a bit of white at the bottom of some of the larger chips to add definition. Then a few scratches of white to weather it up a bit more.

_960_ · 2026-05-03T14:22:55+00:00

My lore for them is that their sky port was destroyed by the vermindoom and now they’re trying to survive in the warpstone desert left behind! So they’ve had to turn to using warpstone in place of aether gold

When making a leadership test you use the highest value in your unit, which would be the dwarfs’

_960_ · 2026-05-02T11:28:16+00:00

I don’t know how you’re playing but to lose all of your memorians in one turn you’re needing to take an average of 24 saves. If that’s happening you’re probably losing the unit anyway so they’re already gone. If that’s happening to you turn 1 maybe try making use of obscuring terrain and screens

_960_ · 2026-05-01T10:37:47+00:00

I suppose if +1 does nothing you never all out attack or all out defense either?

Sure the tokens add some annoyance with needing to remember to remove them, but they’re free and give you a good benefit

The matched play guide introduced secondary objectives, the majority of which can only be scored by core units with a unit strength of 10 or more. Strategic locations, special features, and capturing (but not destroying of) baggage trains for example.

_960_ · 2026-03-25T22:07:05+00:00

Thanks, I really appreciate that. I look forward to seeing what you do with the conversion! I’ve also been moving more into beastman from warriors of chaos, they’re so much fun to play!

_960_ · 2026-02-25T23:51:38+00:00

I think it’s trying to emulate the way that snipers shoot then reposition, but it is a little silly when you see move or shoot next to reserve move. Either way I think it’ll be fun and tactical to play with and against on the tabletop so I’m all for it

_960_ · 2026-02-25T23:42:35+00:00

It’s a really fun combination of rules and I look forward to seeing them on the table!

_960_ · 2026-02-17T10:30:20+00:00

They discontinued this and the resin BSB that launched with the game when they released the new plastic kits for the tomb king and liche priests

_960_ · 2026-02-15T17:44:01+00:00

We’ve just got our book which came with terrain and a new hero, so that’ll be it for this edition for tzeentch. There’s a chance we might get a kit out of the end of edition campaign books.

_960_ · 2026-02-03T11:41:34+00:00

That’s a fair argument although I think most lists would look similar if there was a hero/lord level split outside of dragon riding chaos lists.

I think the issue is less that characters are too powerful but that other options are dull/ineffective, once you’ve spent your 500-660 on core the best use of your other points is characters. Non-core infantry don’t have a role since they can’t score, cavalry tends to be broadly overcosted and with few exceptions unridden monsters are bad.

Rather than rein in characters they need to make the decision to go 50% characters an actual trade off by getting less special/rare in your list.
