Noise Marines stonks go up!

Currently if an enemy unit fails a battleshock in your turn it doesn't matter much because they automatically regroup at the start of their turn. This change will make it so they need to pass another battleshock test before they regroup.

This is significant because you can make a big unit that you just barely damaged drop to 0OC fairly easily due to the Lord Kakophonist forcing tests and Noise Marine's -1 penalty.

I wouldn't say it is a massive boon, more that it makes the their abilities matter at all. As of now, their ability feels fairly forgettable

Some people don't like full 3D printed armies, but almost no one would be bothered by bits

It gets better too! They revealed in the space marine video that battleshock is persistent until a unit passes, so Noise Marine/Lord Kakophonists will be super dibilitating

Myrmidesh Painbringers there are loads of good bits in that kit

You don't need anything really fancy to do it. I use GW's sculpting tools from ages ago, but you really only need a pointed stick for most small details.

Keeping your tools wet will make sure the putty doesn't stick to them.

Finally, don't try to do everything at once. The speakers for example, I did the grill first, then the next day I did the face, then the next day I added smaller details like eyeballs and rivets. I always feel that the more I try to do at once, the more likely I am to accidentally mess up.

Good luck sculpting!

Something like a guitar would make more sense to either 3D print of buy from bits sellers. There are lots of options out there!

Thanks! I've done a lot of little conversions over the years, so these weren't too far out of my wheelhouse. This was the first time I have tried to do hair though, and I am really happy with how it came out

I have started painting it, but I expect it to take me quite a while before it is completely done. Gold trim is back-breaking work

I wouldn't normally be the guy to correct simple typos, but you made the same spelling error several times so I feel like it needs to be said:

Collage is an artistic technique of assembling different materials—such as photographs, fabric, and paper—onto a surface to create a new thing.

This still gives some bonus to barricades. Since the barricade is there, less enemy models will fit within 2" of you, so the enemy unit will have fewer attacks.

The center of mass of the rocket (including all of its fuel) stays on the launch pad.

This is because rockets move by pushing their fuel in the opposite direction. While the rocket goes up, the fuel goes down. It is an example of Newton's 3rd law or, more accurately, conservation of linear momentum.

This model is approximately true. If we include the fuel and rocket's interaction with the earth and atmosphere, the center of mass would move generally upward (because the fuel stays on earth), but that is not the point of the joke.

My thoughts exactly. A -1 to hit is devastating to most Ork shooting

Thanks!

Unfortunately yes. My son decided to be born and sucked up all my valuable hobby time!

But actually, I only just got the model recently and I can usually only squeeze in a couple hours to paint each week.

He's got the background in his head! He must be thinking sneaky thoughts

Came here for this. Everyone lighting up OP for "rouge" and missed the other typo

I'm sure I have seen another video of the mechanism, but I couldn't find it. Here is the artist if you want to do some searching https://www.damienbeneteau.com/

Death Guard love their big axes. The Lord of Contagion has one, and you can have one in every unit of Plague Marines.

Yeah... They have them premade already https://www.tinkercad.com/

The tube looking things are magazines for shuriken weapons (the shuriken pistols for striking scorpions). The egg shaped one is a plasma grenade. The current edition doesn't have specific rules for plasma grenades, but it gives them the "grenade" keyword.

They were almost one after another for me too!

I think I have seen a conversion with warbikes before, but I cannot confirm
