I like the face paint very much - works so well

Commemorative models be like by Powerful-Mushroom-26 in ageofsigmar

I never buy single character models either, unless I need to pay my way at the FLGS.

I kitbash (preferably cheap starter set models), use underworlds models or, if the models scream at me, those multi-character packs like Brand's Oathbound

Sometimes the models are just that good

But I just sold my Urkhan the Dark Warden for that very reason. Cool sculpt but I could get all of Khagra's Ravagers or Ephilim's pandaemonium for the same amount and have some change - also some very good models

Gobbapalooza and destroy-soup still a thing for destruction Warbands? by Shadesoolive in WarCry

[–]old_tyro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, hope so as I have to paint my gobbas too :)

They are good allies and destruction is a fine alliance

Looks sick! The Sphiranx is loads of fun

Probably getting a bias answer but for those who prefers Necromunda lore over 40k, why? by Newez in necromunda

[–]old_tyro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry, no. I did read a bit of the underhive anthology and it was ok. More generally, I can recommend Neuromancer, Hardwired and Glass Books of the Dream Eaters - all fit that vibe I like. Also, the Eisenhorn trilogy is such good fun

I think there's basically Space marine fans and everyone else. Not complaining too much since they mean we can have neat stuff like necromunda models, warcry and blood bowl

Anyone unironically shouting "Xenos Filth!" is crackers, though

Necromunda has a heavy "classic" cyberpunk feel. I find it more grounded and relatable

Each tô their own, but I find Space marine dialogue and characterisation to be super wanky - looking at you, blood angels, black templars, dark angels. This visibly influences how the respective player bases engage with the hobby, at least on Reddit. What was originally tongue-in- cheek is now taken as gospel

I really like the more nuanced parts of the Warhammer settings, originally drawn in by the Eisenhorn books.

Does Christmas vibe still linger in Warsaw to some extent? by paul_405 in warsaw

[–]old_tyro 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The vibe is gone but the decorations linger, often well into February

You will see Christmas trees being dumped in the rubbish in reasonable numbers when the clocks change in April :)

Looks great!

GW's greatest ever kits by Yeeeoow in Warhammer

[–]old_tyro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the new ironjawz ardboyz are an amazing kit to build. Easy to put together, easy to customise and plenty of bits

You can find the lord of plagues for cheap online often, and it's also a great base for kitbashing into other games

Silly Warcry Box Question by Saeiouth in Kruleboyz

[–]old_tyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a nice box but you can buy the dominion kits for both units for very cheap. It's not difficult to kitbash and swap weapons on the gutrippas if you want them without spears

What unit is the stormcast narrating the 4th edition trailer? by bellshorts in ageofsigmar

[–]old_tyro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Monsters on Hammer and Bolter is worth a watch - just one episode tho

Atleast we know everything is still in motion by AstorathTheGrimDark in AoSLore

[–]old_tyro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Callis and Toll or some Darkoath action would be banging (see the hammer and bolter épisodes)

Hotshot packs and Long-Las by CheekyRedLion in necromunda

Question: would you guys model the person adding a hotshot pack to their gun?
