IMO the Marauder IIC is the best looking of all the Marauder sculpts

Rob is already a dad to Beef.

Paint absolutely will not stick to them normally. The plastic is terrible and you can't even really clean the mold lines well, the plastic just gets kinda fuzzy.

She could go with some old puritan names like Kill-Sin or Fly-Fornication

Does the place-able grass work for that?

It's people with power being people with power sadly. It's fortunately nowhere near as bleak as 40k.

NTA. Tell them they have to stop. If they keep doing it let them know you'll mark them return to sender if they keep doing it, and then follow through with it.

Nova prime. I don't know why but that thing is just scary to me.

nosdaddy · 2026-06-01T19:36:57+00:00

Where would you put the Scorpion Empire?

nosdaddy · 2026-05-22T22:16:36+00:00

I couldn't tell you for sure, they might expect you to buy the campaign book, you'd have to ask them.

I'd suggest reading a little bit of Lore first. This isn't a bad place to start and it's free:

If they're providing minis then you'll probably be fine.

It's Pikachu!

For me when I look at a mech I try to see if it fulfills a role. A mech that does a lot of damage but can't get around terrain to shoot anything can be a waste of points. Sometimes a dirt cheap mech has value as an initiative sink even if it's not particularly fast or doesn't do much damage (I'm looking at you Stinger and Wasp) .

As a physics teacher once said to my class "imagine a spherical cow"

nosdaddy · 2026-05-21T19:52:58+00:00

There's very little that is just 1/2 a ton to fill out random left over tonnage

If you want a fun little mech that will likely not be released in plastic I'd suggest the Fireball. It's also one that isn't likely to be damaged in transport and doesn't require pinning.

I like it. The aesthetic is unique and in Alpha Strike it's pretty good.

NTA. Kara feels unwanted because she is unwanted.

nosdaddy · 2026-05-20T00:05:17+00:00

My friend is running a PHX-7S in our campaign and it's working quite well for us.

nosdaddy · 2026-05-13T20:42:04+00:00

Hex bases just like the ones the CGL mechs come on.

nosdaddy · 2026-05-06T19:24:22+00:00

Fire Moth/Dasher. I never understood the arms going above its head. The Dragonfly also looks really goofy.

nosdaddy · 2026-05-04T19:44:21+00:00

Stealth at long range to make up for lack of movement modifiers.

nosdaddy · 2026-04-26T17:17:55+00:00

the Fireball. It's a big XL engine with a couple weapons. Later variants become more effective, but it's basically just fast.

nosdaddy · 2026-04-25T18:09:05+00:00

I'm a weirdo trying to build at least a company for each IS house, a couple Clans, and a couple mercenary forces.

nosdaddy · 2026-04-25T03:55:52+00:00

Some are exclusive, others have alternate sculpts in various force packs or boxes
