Whoops! I got the Ghostkeel and Stormsurge mixed up. I was describing the Ghostkeel. When magnetizing the Stormsurge, I magnetized the secondary twin-linked weapons by putting magnets in the mount...

It's actually pretty straightforward since there are only a few options. I don't have any pictures handy, but can provide them later if necessary. Basically you only have to magnetize the weapon...

I concur with Blood Shadow about considering dropping a Commissar and putting in a CCS. Orders are what make Astra Militarum shine. I would also say that I have never found plasmas to be superior...

Hmm. That's a good point. I only have one Forge World model for Tau (a Barracuda) but it's one I would like to use. So I guess if I want to use it, I would go with the Combined Arms Detachment and...

Thanks, that is helpful. So then can I take a Hunter Contingent and then an auxiliary formation from Mont'ka but then not have the Hunter Contingent benefits extend to them?

I need some help on Tau formations. Specifically, once I take the core formations can I mix and match other formations between the Kau'yon and Mont'ka formations? I ask because it would seem that I...

Well Fireblade is simply an upgrade to Tau firewarriors so no surprise. However the drones used to be fast attack.

Captain Bubonicus, I can't seem to find the Baal Strike Force rules in the codex. I can only find the Blood Angels Company. Where should I be looking?

***Never mind. I found it.*****

Hal: Thanks for pointing out the page. That is pretty severe.

Anakzar: In light of the above, sensor spines for all my Tau vehicles it is.

I recently ran into a problem playing Tau. All Tau vehicles are skimmers. According to the skimmer rule, if they begin or end their turn in difficult terrain, they have to take a dangerous terrain...

They do not. The drone controller only passes on the ballistic skill. It does not pass on Skyfire. Consider giving your Riptide just the Early Warning device. That will grant Interceptor to the...

This is pretty well done. The only criticism I have (knowing it is a work in progress and there are currently typos and stuff that will be fixed) is that there are not enough slots. Two HQ's, 3...

At the risk of showing off what a geek I am, the original Aliens vs Predators comics had an Asian woman who fought with the Predators against the Aliens and was more or less "adopted" by them at the...

@miteyheroes - The Mordheim Sisters of Sigmar look pretty good. I'll see if I can get some from eBay.
@eldargal - The Bretonnian Damsels would be great also except they seem really hard to get and...

Daboarder, I don't have anything specific in mind. They just have to look similar to the 40K style. Sometimes other companies use different proportions so they don't match in terms of size. I...

So with the new Adepta Sororitas codex, priests are now pretty useful and I want to include a few. The problem is that I have managed to keep my Sisters army all female through 3 editions and prefer...

If you don't want to buy the battleforce then my recommendation would be to get another box of fire warriors and a crisis battlesuit team next. That allows him to field an (admittedly small) army. ...

I appreciate everyone's insight and perspective on this.

The thing is, they imply that you can run a list with just the Eight since they mention how it would be an interesting challenge. It would sure be nice if GW had their own discussion boards where...

So I'm sure it has escaped no-ones notice that if you use "the Eight" out of the Farsight Enclave Codex supplement that list clocks in at 1494 points. Just right for the standard 1500 Warhammer 40K...

I agree that as long as they minimize some of the more dramatic maneuvers like barrel rolls it could be OK. In the series they tend to maneuver pretty nimbly for their size, especially ships like...

My two cents would be to use magnets so you can try a few different combinations. Fortunately the crisis suits and weapons/support systems are very easy to magnetize. Under the new codex, you can...

I'm with Nabterayl. The drone controller only confers the ballistic skill characteristic, not the skyfire ability. So the drones would be BS 5 just like the Commander Crisis Suit, but since the...

I'd have to say hull points. Nothing more frustrating than getting 2 or 3 penetrating shots only to roll 1's and 2's or even 3's for weapon destroyed. I say this even though I play Imperial Guard...

I'm with OrksOrksOrks. Citadel paint (in fact virtually any decent paint, Tamiya, Vallejo, etc.) have worked fine through an airbrush for the 10 years I've been using them.
