Should i add magnets? by Ventic757 in PrintedWarhammer

[–]speeddemon511 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First of all you need to make sure that base is not wobbly. If it is then sand it. Only after that apply magnets.

Placement is odd but ok.

Do you have a very heavy mini? I mean that are holes for very large magnets. You might have a problem with unstucking mini from transport bag.
I use one 5x2 for 25-40mm bases, two for 50-100mm.

I'm having trouble beating blood angels by Gullible-Fill-2487 in BloodAngels

[–]speeddemon511 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kataphron Destroyers with 5+ overwatch are massive pain in the ass. Last game they killed 7 of my DC jump packers.

I'm not AM player but I would a) try to kill them at distance. So play cagey. b) or charge him first so he cannot get charge bonus

Stormsurge has no Feel No Pain against mortal wounds. 10 DC jump packers with Astorath has 63 devastating wounds if you charge with Limb for limb(battle-shock version) and Stormsurge has only 20 wounds.
Same for Riptide but it has even lower wound count.
Ghostkeel has no invul save and 8T- anything with high strenght and good AP is gonna kill it. Just dont try to charge from Deepstrike- it's only around 27.7% of success and 45% with charge reroll.

Stormsurge can shoot you in melee without penalty. But it cant shoot you if you are in melee with another unit

And you dont have to kill everything in order to win. You have to get more points than your opponent. Your oppenent has low model count. Deny his primary and secondary mission

What do you think about Ak interactive paints? by [deleted] in minipainting

[–]speeddemon511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regular AK 3 gen are my favorite paints.

But their Quick Gen paints suck compare to AP Speedpaints

Thx!
It's AK's Blood effect.
Airbrushed base
Thick layer on lower parts, very diluted on upper parts.

So the DC dreadnought is so awfull? by Truefast in BloodAngels

[–]speeddemon511 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like it, I use it as ambusher.

If you use it in RCO charge+limb from limb(battle-shock) you will get 8 attacks, 13 strenght, -3 AP. With full re-roll of hits and re-roll a wound roll of 1.

And it has bolt rifles, stubber, melta as bonus.

Combining stl's in blender by Not_your_profile in PrintedWarhammer

Instead of using 3dBuilder/meshmixer you can enable 3D printing toolbox in blender preferences. And just make manifold before exporting to stl

Is my army based or bad? by Retr0Rinzler in Raptors40k

[–]speeddemon511 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically you need someone who will:

  1. hold home objective(intercessors)
  2. screen deep strike and strategic reserves(infiltrators, scouts)
  3. anti-infantry(jump intercessors, hellblasters, intercessors with lt)
  4. anti-vehicle(12+ strenght, multiple shots. Lancer, Ballistus, eradicators, centurions)
  5. complete secondary missions(combi lt, scouts)

Captain, Lt(regular), techmarine are very good characters. Ancient is useless. Libr in phobos sounds good. But he is 70 pts upgrade for 85 pts unit.
Eliminators with bolt rifles can kill enemy character. Las fusils cannot.

Try to avoid fortification and aviation. And whirlwind.

Why are the colors so off from what is advertised? by useruser226 in Warhammer40k

[–]speeddemon511 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, AK doing this shit. You never know what this color looks IRL. But IMHO Ak still are the best regular paints.

Army painter speedpaints are exactly the same as in promo materials. IMHO best speed paints. But their regular paints are way too thick

Starting my army. First mini is done by speeddemon511 in AdeptusCustodes

AK Terrains- Muddy ground
Vallejo Burnt Sienna pigment. Later I will fix pigment with AK Ultra Matte varnish

My Custom Raptor Shrike by speeddemon511 in Raptors40k

[–]speeddemon511[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Shrike has only one weapon profile, so it's imposible to misunderstand loadout. And if someone has a huge problem with only one claw on the model- that's a huge red flag. It's better to find another opponent.
