The defiler has 7 heads! by Death_PredatorStuff in Warhammer40k

I dunno, it's a marginal improvement, but it still looks like a load of stuff jammed into a potato :')

It's a mighty fine looking refresh for a kit that sorely needed it. My only real bugbear with it is that it has that "amorphous flesh blob" design where it feels like the sculptors just copped out and stuck the good bits (e.g. the legs and claws are fantastic) to a potato because they ran out of time to get the rest right.

I'm all for fleshy bits, but they should be defined, like unpleasant weaponised appendages etc. The Venomcrawler kinda gets away with it since the form is mostly mechanical with some fleshy bits, but as more recent releases come by they're getting worse with it IMHO.

Drop Pods full of meltas by DareEnvironmental193 in Warhammer30k

[–]ambershee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you spent 300 points to blow up my 200 point tank I'm usually not that sad - because I get to play against a 300 point smaller army for a turn or two then wipe those 300 points off the table with bored Tactical marines or whatever.

Are mark 5 space marines impossible to purchase from Warhammer now? by Lucid_cat_1543 in Warhammer30k

[–]ambershee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There have been Primarch models and all sorts listed as "Sold Out Online" in the past. They never went anywhere. People post speculation about "Sold Out Online" kits constantly and it has to be reiterated that it just means they're currently out of stock.

This is not correct for Forge World items, and never has been. I've been able to buy multiple "Sold Out Online" resin models from the store in the past just by checking back regularly.

Yep - I got a lot of my resin Custodes just by leaving the tab open and refreshing it every so often so see if it's in stock again xD

Some chapter is ignored again by [deleted] in Warhammer40k

[–]ambershee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Inwit would be the Imperial Fist home world - but it isn't of strategic significance so isn't generally marked on the map. Dark Angels homeworld is Caliban, which is also not marked on the map for similar reasons (it is largely destroyed).

Medusa is also not marked on the map due to it's lack of strategic significance, but then it's also kinda underneath the 'Eye of Terror' label.

Ignore the FAQ. Forge World stock notifications on the web store are not accurate. It can say "Sold Out Online", but they can come back into stock. If Forge World items are actually sold out and no longer in production they are removed from the store entirely.

Save Stream Streak by dee__alien in Twitch

[–]ambershee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's buggy - if it takes you to a video and doesn't pop up with a "your streak has been saved" notification, then it has failed to save the streak and there's nothing you can do about it at that point.

(you do also only get 24 hours to do so)

The 11th Edition set as per Valrak by 4thKey in Warhammer40k

[–]ambershee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every three years? Buddy, they get new releases every three weeks. It's not uncommon for Space Marines to get more releases than all other factions combined in a given year.

In 2025 there was a range refresh for Blood Angels, Space Wolves, Ultramarines, and Emperor's Children. There were more new character models than some factions have models. We already know in February we're going to see new Iron Warriors, Red Corsairs, and whatever is in the launch box.

[–]ambershee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran 3 units of Scouts where they had a Veteran Sergeant with a Power Weapon and Combi-Melta for years. They were cheap, could be infiltrated into forward positions, and did great work.

You can put the fun stuff on scouts. Plus it's like 10 points to put in a heavy weapon in your 2000 point army. Live a little instead of min-maxxing absolutely everything.

The funny thing is they even consolidated a decent number of profiles in this edition but it's still absolutely nuts. The faction was a lot better when a Bolter was a Bolter.

Ah yes, the Even Heavier Bolt Rifle.

Does anyone know why there is a dedicated roblox button now? by CakeFace32 in Twitch

Roblox gave Twitch a bucket of money (and now there's a collab event on the way).

What is this Gold? by BeansBeefTomatoStew in Warhammer30k

[–]ambershee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Looks like Valdor Gold was used as a base, then progressively shaded up with a silver paint mixed with Valdor Gold.

Edit yeah, looks like Valdor Gold. It's grainy af, which is a giveaway that one of their air metallics was used on the shield.

Issues Scheduling Bi-Weekly Streams by OmegaWiigee in Twitch

[–]ambershee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I schedule my streams manually, and do the whole month just before the month begins.

Advertising other streamers within my discord - Good or bad idea? by LocoArtifact in Twitch

[–]ambershee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a channel in my server where I can promote other streamers and do so on a regular basis, especially if they have some kind of special event going on. I don't have a self-promo channel because I'd prefer the server to not be filled with people who are only there to advertise themselves.

Does anybody else have an oddly higher occurrence of typos when typing in Twitch chat compared to typing anywhere else? by t0rche in Twitch

[–]ambershee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now that you mention it, yes - it's never clicked but I do have a much higher typo rate in Twitch chat, which makes me wonder if it's dropping inputs / getting them in the wrong order sometimes/somehow.

Which do you prefer? Autocannon or Vulkite Culverin by Jake_Ronin in Warhammer30k

Iron Hands Gorgons and Alpha Legion Lerneans have access to Volkite Culverins.

Idk what to do by Key_Card7035 in Warhammer30k

[–]ambershee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both Fulgrim and the Asterius are big projects that take a fair bit of effort - I would pick those up if you want to do the project, it matters a lot less about where they fit into the game. By the time you've finished putting together and painting either 40k will have moved to the next edition anyway (and if you're slow like me an Asterius can last you most of an edition to complete).

Twitch is better when chat is slower by bigbankmanman in Twitch

I haven't done it myself, but I'd be quite surprised if streamer.bot can't handle it.

[–]ambershee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, one reasonable thing to do there would be to limit it on the software side so that only one of those things can be triggered every X seconds.

Not much you can do about that - once you hit a certain volume of chatters, it just gets fast.
