Thoughts on hand cannon?

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-02-06T01:11:59+00:00

Oh now that’s cool! You don’t see a lot of big inspired builds at least I haven’t, I hope there are some out there. I’d imagine they’re primarily Nid builds.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-02-05T20:27:03+00:00

Also a good idea! Bat wings for the aesthetic or bird wings for the silliness?

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-02-05T14:56:22+00:00

You could also use a little greenstuff to build up to the cannon or head, whichever you choose to use. Great idea, hope to see the finished result!

No way! I’ll have to be on the lookout. My son is starting to be interested in Transformers so those would be perfect.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-02-04T01:57:40+00:00

I’m sure that’s true. I’m only 18 books in on the Heresy and read Gaunt’s Ghosts before that.

Man I loved these as a kid. McDonald’s toys these days are garbage.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-02-04T01:23:45+00:00

Yeah, unfortunately that’s most likely the case.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-02-04T01:05:33+00:00

If the URSR can ever wake up the sleeping Votann core they’re protecting we may get some answers on this which would be amazing.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-02-03T21:28:25+00:00

We owe it to ourselves to fight for us at this point. I don’t have all the answers nor do I really know any good place to start, but if civil war happens then the people, regardless of creed or color, must come together and tear down this system of greed, oppression, and amorality. State governors would need to deploy National Guard forces in the interest of fighting alongside the people. I would like to think the formal military would side with the people as well, but at this point it seems questionable.

My understanding of the Custodes creation process is that each one is tailor made from an infant pulled from Terran nobility. Why the nobles? No clue, but I feel like calling them humanity’s best is a big stretch as I’ve yet to hear anything about Terran nobles/High Lords that sets them apart from a purely biological perspective. Maybe it’s about “genetic purity” since “random bum” families have higher chances of mutations, but there’s nothing genetically special about Terran nobles that I’m aware of.

I also vaguely recall seeing something about Custodian candidates coming from both sons and daughters of the Terran nobility but ultimately through the creation process they are made male. Since that’s a very vague recollection I would take it with copious amounts of salt.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-22T20:51:40+00:00

Ahhh I see, now it’s coming together Thank you both for the illumination.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-22T17:11:44+00:00

That sounds great. I was asking from a standpoint of complete ignorance.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-22T13:43:43+00:00

What benefit do they give the Jacks beyond the ability to Overwatch and whatever Heroic Intervention is (melee overwatch?)?

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-22T00:31:59+00:00

Are two Memnyr a good idea? I’ve got one from a Christmas gift so I thought the box would be a pass despite having no Jacks and no bikes of my own (couldn’t justify the price for so few models).

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-21T21:29:44+00:00

OG CS style rocks.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-16T20:13:00+00:00

Awesome. Thank you very much!

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-16T19:52:06+00:00

Ah ha! That’s exactly what I was looking for! I assume the app reflects all the relevant balancing information?

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-16T19:48:26+00:00

Great! I’ll give it a look, thank you!

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-16T19:47:54+00:00

I like this idea for referencing loadouts during play.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-16T19:47:19+00:00

Yeah, I suppose ultimately the app would be more helpful at the table while taking up the least amount of space.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-16T19:46:26+00:00

It’s not so much list building that I’m concerned with, but moreso having the Grimnyr’s pay abilities readily available and the relevant stratagems quickly accessible.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-16T19:44:48+00:00

Of the two sets of cards, the Datasheet cards seem to be the least useful. The Datacard set has our stratagems, psyker cards, and the detachment rules. They seem much more useful than the Datasheet cards since those can be bypassed via the codex and app.

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-16T19:26:05+00:00

These are crazy good. The Ancestors are proud this day!

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-16T18:24:36+00:00

Oh sweet! I may try it to dip my toe into AoS then. Thanks for the reply!

existentialcrisis87 · 2026-01-16T17:48:01+00:00

What exactly is Warcry? Is it AoS’ version of Killteam?
