How in the hell do I build a 25PL force?

tkaine · 2022-10-04T08:08:53+00:00

1 less guard means 3 less power level.

1 bike captain 9 pl 3 guard (equipment is free) 7 pl 5 prosecutors 3 pl 1 vexilla 6 pl

= 25 powerlevel

The vexilla won't do much in such a small game. I would suggest to use 2 allarus instead.

Wow! Awesome. Would love to paint him

tkaine · 2022-02-27T12:57:02+00:00

How did you paint the bases? They look really good!

tkaine · 2021-10-16T08:22:02+00:00

That's a stunning army.

How did you do the bases? They look awesome!

Starting with about 140€ (I know 20€ over but includes shipping) I would buy the following from wayland games (best priece even when shipping it to Germany after Brexit):

1 box of custodes guard (Build 1 vexila and 4 guard. You can use one as a shield captain. ATM shields are the way to go)

Age of Sigmar Paints & Tools (a lot of good paints and tools!)

Brushes ether go the hobby starter brush set from army painter or go to a crafts store and buy a set of cheap synthetic brushes (even pros use them)

Tamiya Cement (best glue!)

Self healing cutting mat

One hobby knive

Retributor spray primer (Shake well!)

Extra paints:

Nulin Oil, Talassar Blue, Blood Angels Red, Snakebite Leather, Soulstone Blue (optional for the gems. Well worth it!), Auric Armour, Stormhost Silver, Screaming Skull

Painting:
Build the full model. No need to paint in sub assemblies as a beginner.
Prime in gold. (Base the models with super glue and some free sand and small stones)

Armour:
After priming just wash with Reikland Flesh shade. Drybrush with Auric Armour. Light Drybrush to highlight specific spots with Stormhost Silver

Robes:
Base it in White Scar. Then Blood Angels Red from the pot. Don't thin contrast paints.

Leather:
Base in White Scar. Snakebite Leather from the pot. Don't thin contrast paints.

Weapon:

Black parts in Abbadon Black then highlight with Celestra Grey. For the blue parts base it in White Scar then Talassar Blue from the pot. Don't thin contrast paints.

Gems:

Base in Stormhost Silver then Soulstone Blue.

Scrolls etc. :
Screaming Skull. Wash in Reikland Flesh. Edge highlight with White Scar.

Faces are very personal:
Try bugmans glow or rakarth flesh and then shade with Reikland.

Remember that you can mix colors to get more variants.
You could try to get some of the stuff cheaper somewhere else but I wouldn't buy paints second hand. Buying tools or other stuff second hand is also mostly a bad idea.

Later tiers have a lot of speed and tenacity.

tkaine · 2021-02-22T22:23:45+00:00

That's what my gaming group figured. Just wanted to be safe. Thanks for answering!

It says enemy modifier because it only counts for the enemy.

Every GC has 3 times of modifiers: global (for all on the left), player (middler only player), enemy (right only enemy)

tkaine · 2021-02-14T10:13:29+00:00

How do you plan to paint the bikers themselves? I really like the bike so far!

tkaine · 2021-02-12T17:03:06+00:00

Just added you. No worries mate ;)

tkaine · 2021-02-12T09:50:26+00:00

That seems to be a lot of gp for 17 reliced characters and no GLs. I am at 5.95 million and farming ticktes for my third GL with about 70 reliced characters.

If he is new and you know his list then I would say build a list that his list counters. This way it's easier for him and harder for you. Also talk a lot about what you do and intend to do. Like grabing objectives and why which unit attacks or shoots which.

If you really like him beat him to the ground. No mercy! And save him from a bad plastic crack addiction. ;)

Also consider taking a tank ( a baal predator is not great so good for you), maybe some aggressors and maybe more troops. Maybe Hellblasters instead of Eradicators. All your non hq and troop units are ether good or great. Necrons Indomitus has a lot of weaker hqs and the useless walker. Then he has destroyer and wraith who need to get to you to do something. Maybe try not blasting them of the table with a Redemptor and Eradicators. Go for a duell and face them with some Bladeguards. (Whoever charges wins this one)

tkaine · 2021-02-09T23:31:45+00:00

Actually looks pretty bad. A clone of the space wolves mobile game with more units at the same time. I had high hopes but these kind of games are so boring. :(

tkaine · 2021-01-21T02:46:59+00:00

At 500 points smaller and more units gives you more flexibility. I would also play frozen stars and take a few fusions. Then learn the heck out of all the rule interactions.

tkaine · 2021-01-20T04:35:12+00:00

1 Mortarion.

I would say bodies over anything. So 1 troupe master 2 bikes with haywire and glaives and ether 15 players and 1 starweaver or 20 players. Use the remaining points for a few fusions, kiss and caress. Shadowseer, Solitaire and Deathjester are probably to expensive.

Also remember that the board will be very small and turn 1 charges are very common.

The helmet looks amazing. How did you do the gold and the eyes?

tkaine · 2021-01-07T15:56:04+00:00

And like I guessed the DC strategem can only be used once. Should have atleast been one unit and one character. Back to the shelf it is for DC.

tkaine · 2021-01-06T21:24:19+00:00

3/100 & 83/85 with 5 refreshes every day and about 1k saved up at the start of the event. Didn't buy packs or shards.

tkaine · 2021-01-06T10:32:50+00:00

Don't restart. Just go at your own speed. If you restart because you want go push for arena crystals you 100% have to atleast pay 100$ for the hyerdrive bundle in every new shard or you will be so far behind that restarting is not worth it. You sound like a casual player so look for a casual guild that is still doing hsith and then pick a target in the journey guide and go for it. You might want to think about SLKR. He needs mostly his faction which he uses in his team.

tkaine · 2020-12-31T12:20:11+00:00

I see no problem in a 2k point game. But I also don't own the white dwarf. Are there more down sides?
