I truly love Victoria's ladies and will be getting some of them but I have to laugh at the people who cast stones at the Raging Heroes girls(both here and on other forums). They don't seem to...
Spectacular work!! I like it only slightly more than your Bloodwrack Medusa (pirate army) and your Krakens. Gods there are some talented people out there. I wish I had 1/10 of your skill.
Are...
Hopefully no one minds my adding my two cents as I'm in a similar boat but not for vehicles. I've gotten my hands on a number of old metal Nid gargoyles without bases. GW wants a buck piece for the...
For years we've put up with assinine changes to codices from GW in the name of driving sales but, this one takes the cake. What I'd like to see is a universal wave of house rules reinstating the...
The Palatine Blades were already going to be part of my loyalist EC but I wasn't sure about these termies. They're spectacular but I didn't have an idea as to how to work them in. That was until...
We all know that 40K is just WFB in Space and most of the analogs are obvious. And yes, Necrons are the undead analog. However, that is not what I'm so wistful about. Anyone who's seen Heavy Metal...
1. My oldest chapter is my homebrew Sunhawks. They've typically been played as vanilla marines but when traits were in vogue, they had the trait that allowed boatloads of apothecaries.
2. My...
I voted Other.
1. Demiurg - done properly as there was NEVER any room for silly Dwarves or Orcs in 40K. Unfortunately, there were nitwits in the Studio who thought silly Orcs in Space was a good...
Lelith Hesperax (Dark Eldar)
original Keeper of Secrets (Chaos Daemons)
Not a fan of FW prices (especially shipping to the States) but the Palatines will be an Honor Guard squad for my Loyalist EC. And soon. :)
I like the looks of both of these vehicles but FW prices mean these are WAY done the list of things I need to pick up.
Chaos
Emperors Children
Thousand Sons
Loyalist
Blood Angels
Imperial Fists
Emperors Children (my loyalists have been played using BA rules since the first codex came out)
Salamanders
SM 4? (traits)
CSM 3.5
Nids - Build-a-bug version, although to be honest it needed some of the critters from the current codex. The current dex has a bit too much nerfing for me.
Hated back banners, absolutely and unequivocally. They ranked almost as high on my hate list as silly orks and silly dwarves in 40K. One went away and the other should have.
Things I miss:
-...
Love this idea. I've been playing a Loyalist remnant of the EC since 3rd Ed. Fair warning however. While this army has been very popular with my local groups, there are a substantial number of...
I have agree with you about the look of the vehicles. I love them but I haven't gone down that road...yet. ;)
Crawling out of the corner again...
One of the hazards/boons of having been in 40K since v2 (and having the attention span for projects of a two-year old - look a butterfly!...) is that I've...
There are some of us old farts around. Started playing AD&D in the late 70s and drifted into minis. 40K since v2 and no sign of ever stopping. :D
I've been playing Nids almost as long as I've been playing my Sunhawks. I'm currently playing a bike army (WS but not white) and have found what I suspect your friend will find out. A bike army is...
What's your typical load-out for a BA HG?
This is a concept that warms the cockles of my heart. Back during the days of 40Kv3 I became enamored with the idea of real Undead in 40K after seeing the movie Heavy Metal again for the first time...
I used to be a huge fan of the 5 man squad with 4 ML but I've recently had a slight change of heart and now always go with a 5 man squad with 3 ML and 1 LC when I take Devs. I really like the...
Thanks! There looks to be some amazing tutorials in this set of links.
Not on the fence but still passionately anticipating v6. I believe the leaked ruleset is an early draft version of the real ruleset and I'm geeked as hell with how well these rules will go over. I...
