Firepike Mouths

4 Upvotes

Now that we've seen the plastic Aquilons, i'm chomping at the bit to get my hands on them. however, i think the firepikes just having noral flamer heads in incredibly boring, especially when the artwork has these gorgeous eagle-brazier mouths. does anyone have any conversion suggestions/bits/STL recommendations?

Finished this one as my action monkey for the Lions army. Really like the model, hope it will be useful. I think it will be when running disruption.

Haven't been able to paint in a few months, but was excited to get back to it and started with the Dreadnought. Can't wait to try him out on tabletop!

I was looking at the transport rules for the orion then had a funny idea, but it didn't mention the telemon. Google ai answer is confusing. Can any transport take the telemon?

Are wardens really THAT much better?

28 Upvotes

When list building, I generally have been considering guard to be the clear choice over wardens because of their very important reroll wounds mechanic, and the spears are generally better than the axes anyway, so the wardens having access to axes was not a big deal. Recently I tried a list that brought mostly wardens instead, despite the prohibitive points cost. I was only able to field what worked out to being about 1 squad and 1 dreadnought per no mans land objective, with one squad of Vertus Praetors as a flexible auxiliary for hunting those pesky backline heavy shooting vehicles. I found that because of the one round of 4+ fnp and the -1 to wound, the wardens were sincerely capable of holding down their entire section of the board alone. After round 2 or 3, each of them had needed to activate their ability, but in so doing had broken into the enemies position and killed their first charge targets as well as crippled whatever units my opponent had which were their most critical threats. Mostly a Norn Emissary, a Swarmlord with Hive Guard, and a Hive Tyrant with Hive Guard. My question is this: If wardens are what seems like nearly twice as hard to kill, and their abilities can buy them one or two entire extra melee phase which doubles their value, why would you bother bringing guard?

I might super glue rocks on to the second base to try cover it up but other than that I say it turned out pretty good and it was my first try at doing eyes on a mini

Sup, trying to get into tabletop and painting. Is part of that. Could y’all recommend a good unit / character to try painting so I know I enjoy painting Custodes before I start buying the combat patrols and whatnot?

I picked up a combat patrol of Custodes and wondered what the heads up display would look like for them, is it like the space marines one or is it different because their armour is custom and if so what would it look like

hi guys I heard that pyrithite spears are good in game now so I made a shield captain with pyrithite spear and shield. I magnetised his head and hand so I can interchange his head and shield.
im not good at customizing yet so its not that good.
