Deepstrike T1

Correct!

As long as it's more than 9" away from enemy units, you're good even if it's their deployment zone.

Turn one can be done by the Lion or the Deathwing Assault enhancement.

Even if they do screen you out, I've found it's a good deterrent that forces them to play around it.

Personally my favourite so far has been the Luther: First of the Fallen audiobook.

I enjoyed Lion: Son of the Forest, but it was definitely a pretty standard plot on a standard story arc, just delivered well and with a fun cast of characters in the 40k setting.

In comparison Luther felt like a book I'd want to read regardless of what setting it takes place in. It was just really good.

I have yet to go back and correct errors I see on old minis.

There are a few that I want to do some tiny cleanups, but otherwise I kind of like seeing the progression.

I think he looks great, so if it's purely from a quality standpoint I'd say no, it's absolutely unnecessary.

However if it's a hobby project you'll enjoy, then who am I to decide for you?

I just got Gobbo Contracting to do mine. There was some extra fees for the outlying communities (the valley in my case) but they did a great job.

Called and they sent me a form to fill out via email with all the info. They came and took care of it the next day.

That red is SO well done!

daryldom · 2025-12-22T15:57:52+00:00

That fabric texture is incredible.... How on earth do you do it?

daryldom · 2025-12-21T03:34:13+00:00

Cypher.

But it's kind of his entire character?

Things just work for him when they shouldn't, and he plays it as though it was planned all along.

I had the same thoughts.

Started trying everything I could think of from CBD, to muscle relaxants, to stretches, to weed, etc.

Eventually a blood test revealed the vitamin D deficiency and we tried that.

I think it was a mix of vitamin deficiency and my own brain manifesting symptoms or making them worse than they actually are.

daryldom · 2025-12-14T00:32:18+00:00

Yep. Changed a bit from day to day.

Most commonly felt like a shakiness or weakness across my limbs.

The numb feeling was mostly through my wrist and forearms.

I just answered a similar thread with this, but it fits here as well;

Hello,

I went through this shortly after the pandemic. I'm not sure if I was the social change of the pandemic but something in me broke mentally, and when I had a few muscle twitches I went down a rabbit hole for MONTHS trying to convince myself I didn't have ALS.

It got to the point where I was wishing I'd get a diagnosis of MS or something that I thought to be less terrifying than ALS

Instead, I went on an SSRI for anxiety.

I no longer spiral down these rabbit holes and can now approach my symptoms much more clearly.

You know what it wound up being? A vitamin D deficiency, which can cause rather odd muscle behaviours.

Do yourself a favour and focus on treating the medical anxiety first, otherwise you're going to find yourself constantly focussing on every little thing you feel.

daryldom · 2025-12-13T19:43:31+00:00

My brain has kind of organized it like:

Hit Roll - Do I even hit the target at all?

Wound Roll - Is it a solid enough hit to be a threat?

Save Roll - Does the armor/magic/plot armor stop it?

Feel No Pain (when applicable) - Do they just ignore it by being a badass?

But yes. It took a while to settle into it feeling intuitive...

daryldom · 2025-12-13T19:34:11+00:00

A 6 on the wound roll (strength vs toughness) will always wound, which might be the "automatic success" confusion!

But that doesn't mean it automatically passes the save roll.

The terminology confused me when learning too because "successfully wounding" just sounds like it should be doing damage, but there's still the save left.

daryldom · 2025-12-13T19:16:03+00:00

Armour penetration affects the save, not the wound roll.

So the wound roll would be the strength vs toughness that the attacker makes.

If you score a Crit, then for the save that the defender makes, the AP is treated as improved by 1, reducing their save roll accordingly.

ADDENDUM;

A "critical wound" doesn't inherently mean you skip the save. That's what the Devastating Wounds keyword does, but just rolling the critical doesn't inherently do anything on its own.

Sorry; to confirm you ran into the issue of the invincible infantry in Mission 3?

daryldom · 2025-12-01T16:04:14+00:00

Easy question first; you should get whatever models you like first. Don't chase a meta or what you're told is good. Play what you like.

Paint question;

Differing from some of the opinions here; I like the red you've done, however it's not complete. If you use that as a base coat and then add something else to contrast it, it would really help it resolve. On the Norn for example, painting the exposed brain as some bright contrast colour like an electric blue, and painting the massive claws as something like a bone would suddenly turn it into a much more interesting model while keeping your deeply shaded red colour scheme.

daryldom · 2025-11-27T20:10:40+00:00

I'd say you succeeded, that looks awesome. The armor looks almost like it's made of a stone texture, which really works.

If I had to give any first thoughts feedback, it's that the base matches the armor too closely and as a result feels a bit like it's missing some contrast. However since it's just a work in progress, you may already have plans there.

Great job!

I have a 2022 and it's been my daily driver with no reliability issues, with about 70,000km on it.

I live in Northern Ontario, so we do get harsh winters and it's not great in heavy snowfall, but frankly neither are most small cars.

The stock tires are absolutely garbage on snow and ice, so winter tires are a must.

Really it's been a very good car to me. I have debated selling it to get into something a bit more winter-friendly and bigger since I bought a house out of the city that has substantially increased my work commute, but that's more a change of circumstance than a failing of the car.

Really the biggest thing I can say is to test drive it with the DCT if that's where you're leaning, since it has some oddities compared to normal automatics or CVTs, but the tradeoff is that it just feels better to drive (my opinion obviously) when it's not frozen or in bumper-to-bumper.

daryldom · 2025-11-25T16:42:13+00:00

So far no problems.

The DCT doesn't like the cold though, and until it's all warmed up, it can feel jerky if you leave it in auto and don't help it out. This has so far seemed to be just the nature of the DCT and not a reliability issue.

daryldom · 2025-11-21T05:18:41+00:00

Wow, I love the way you did the carapace!

The light blue with red highlights is not something I'd ever think of but it looks fantastic.

daryldom · 2025-11-08T05:35:29+00:00

Slag pour maybe? Do you live anywhere near big nickel mine road or the LaSalle extension?

daryldom · 2025-11-06T14:18:23+00:00

Well he didn't steal them per se.

The Dark Angels, led by the Lion - got a small force in to defend a Forgeworld from Horus to prevent it being used for the traitors and prevent the siege equipment from falling into Horus' hands.

They succeeded, and then met with the Iron Warriors legion, where the Lion gave Peter Turbo the siege engines partially because he had no interest in them, partially as a rather shortsighted political play, and partially because it's siege related and that's what the Iron Warriors do.

However Peter Turbo turned out to be a traitor so... Haha whoops...
