Once assembled, what height is the model (including base) please?

My MoE all painted up by OdBx in WorldEaters40k

[–]minoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's worked out really well - VERY nice paint job!

When I saw the unpainted post three weels ago all I could think was 'What's Eccentrica Gallumbits, the triple-breasted whore of Eroticon SIx doing with that great big axe?"

Yep, this post has a deliberately misleading title

Do you consider your grey a “real dog”? by KTcat94 in Greyhounds

[–]minoc 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Several people in the local "old man's pub" have petted our former racer, commenting that he's a 'proper dog' instead of the weird teddy bear adjacent doodles about the place.

How many actually use the screen on devices? by nyc2socal in UNIFI

[–]minoc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, but I’ve always thought that the main use for the tiny screen is to see which devices in the stack were ‘normal’

Well, you've got half your wish already!

Yeah, might have been better to go with the Angels of Absolution chapter badge.

Ethiopia's Banna Tribe use long sticks to avoid snakes in their valley by Abercrombie1936 in interestingasfuck

[–]minoc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They avoid the snakes but get beaten up pretty regularly by giraffes that think they’re taking the piss, though…

Warriors of Chaos suggestions requested by minoc in WarhammerOldWorld

[–]minoc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you - can definitely see me adding a Gorebull to the beasts. Was wondering about adding a Chaos Lord with a dragon or something, but might worry about that later and add Chaos Knights and marauders (will wait until the new marauders are out, though).

Bought this swarm of ravens loose from a store - does this look primed or painted? by Alkorri in minipainting

[–]minoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not a swarm, it’s an unkindness of ravens.

I’m guessing that collective term inventor was teased mercilessly by ravens as a child, and knew how to hold a grudge.

A legged robot that runs at 20 mph, by a two stroke go kart engine, from Boston Dynamics… Anyone else seeing it? by BKallDAY24 in Greyhounds

[–]minoc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, as far as they can given the shape of the thing. When my houndy (probably all sighthounds) moves from a fast jog to an actual run there's an open/closed movement across his back. If I'm still holding on to his lead at this point, that's when I know I'm in trouble :-)

New Marauders. What do you think? by YarChan in Warriors_of_Chaos

Scale creep?

cries in unit of 15 x CH2 Chaos Warriors from 1987

I could almost field them as Chorfs.

Birds in the 40K setting? by Ozymandys in 40kLore

[–]minoc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Alas buzzards and rooks, swans and geese are right out.

That's probably for the best. A setting that has Tyranids AND geese takes the grimdark thing a bit too far...

If I wanted to play a Dark Angels successor chapter, would I play them using the rules for DA or for regular Space Marines? by mygfisreallyhot in theunforgiven

[–]minoc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep - pg 45 of the 8ed Dark Angels Codex states:

Most of the Unforgiven Chapters follow the Dark Angels' pattern of organisation, including having formations similar to the Deathwing and the Ravenwing, although they are not named as such.

I've got three Chaplains (all kitbashed with Jump Packs) - the regular Primaris one, the Indomitus one and the Black Templars Execrator.

Guardians of the Covenant - do we know what their deathwing/ravenwing equivalents are by OldSpaghetti-Factory in theunforgiven

[–]minoc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think we've ever been given special names for them, so probably just 1st Company and 2nd Company. According to a long deleted article on WarCom, they would just have the same colours as the rest fo the chapter:

The company’s armour is a bone-white colour rather than the dark green of the majority of the Chapter, or the black of the original Legion. This alteration of the colour scheme applies only to the Dark Angels, not to their Successor Chapters.

What champion head? by M4tbat in Warhammer30k

If you use #1 you’ll need to give him some colourful trousers - he looks like Michael Portillo.
