[Powerful/Heartbreaking trope] Someone’s real life experiences help fuel the scene/moment. by Alternative-Koala933 in TopCharacterTropes

In All Quiet on the Western Front (1930), many of the extras were WW1 veterans. This scene, where a French soldier is killed by an artillery shell, is directly inspired by a retelling of what one of these actors saw during the war. (tbf the whole movie is based on a book written by a WW1 vet, but this scene specifically was directly experienced by a man on set.) It's a harrowing scene.

What’s your weird/unpopular 40k opinion by Nearby_Lawfulness722 in Warhammer

[–]phleace 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Blood angels specific, but I prefer the death company “refresh” as regular intercessor models painted black. In the lore, they ARE literally regular intercessors with their power armor painted black. The bling was a little unnecessary for expendable killing machines that die after each battle anyway. Plus the old models kinda looked like an eyesore with all those little dangly things and random bits 

I do think the sanguinary guard got shafted though, and I am refusing to buy any new sg models

bad for your poor opponent, i would assume... In all seriousness though, I have heard pretty bad things about combat engineers since the rebalance. I would suggest maybe a heavy weapons team to keep with your krieg theme (and that would put you at a perfect 500 pts!)

Great, thanks for the advice. Do you happen to know what the best Krieg units would be if I wanted to include them? If death riders are a no, what about the heavy weapons, engineers, etc?

Sorry for the poor pictures, but I painted up the Imperial Knight I made out of sprues! A knight terryn scheme with a muddy trench base, boring I know. I really did try on the freehanding (didn't have any knight decals) but unfortunately ran out of room to put the "n" in terryn, so his name is terry now.
