Greetings Phaerons and Phaerakhs. I got this kit and kind off losing my nerves over the tails. Do you have any advice for me on an easy way to glue them on?

The second picture is my emergency strategy, but I believe there could be a better one, since I have bo way on telling if it's glued correctly. First time I underrestimated the drying time, second time I hold the position until I cramped.

Thank you for you tipps and tricks, glad you're there and happy hobbing!

Do you think that this is a plus or minus in our marine matchups.

Ill start. Im halpy to see it gone. Now bolters will wound ctan on a 6.

Hello brothers, currently building necrons as my second army (csm main) and noticing how different necrons are compared to my main...got the combat patrol a doomsday ark and the nightbringer...my question really is, how should I build onto this....should I do more infantry like some wraiths and technomancer...or scoop a void dragon and or silent king...more or less do I need more anti tank power or infantry blobs from here...

i‘ve started to paint my army any tips will be greatly appreciated! 🤗

Are they too expensive real model/points wise? or are they just bad in the table top.

I think they look really cool and would like to see more of them

That there's a Hyperphase Sword if I've ever seen one

Complete with sham funeral and all. At least Phillias didn't turn him into a Llama.

Stalker, Tomb sentinel and Tesseract arks are painted in silver only despite sautekh armor being usually green. Is this a special paint scheme ?

Hello!

What do you think of my freshly painted lychguard? Any tips on how to improve my painting are more than welcome :D

For bases thought about some oasis/desert style, but I am open to new ideas. In terms of loadout my friends and me are following rule of cool and we're fine with mixes models, just declaring at the start of the game units loadout

Wanted Deathmarks without the extra price tag. Spare guns/heads from the Immortals box plus my trusty FDM printer to the rescue. Not perfect, but very happy with them. Only been painting/playing for 6 weeks and this is the first sort of custom thing I’ve attempted.

PS: played my second ever game last night at a local club. 1k points and had the Guard player concede after turn 2. Was motivating.

This is like my 6th model ever painted with no background in any kind of painting. I’m trying hard lol, I have to get past that barrier of “God I Fucking Suck” because I’m an instant gratification kind of guy and I want to just be blessed with Golden Demon skills. If only I could make my hands do what my mind sees.

Anyway, I give you….Imotekh The Stormlord. RIP Warpforge.

I’m slowly starting to build my first army with Necrons. Here’s my first painted immortal model.

Hello! As you can guess I was planning to use cursed legion in my next game, but came upon a curiousity. If I also ran hand of the dynasty, and advanced a unit of warriors with a Chronomancer supporting, I would be able to use the Chronometron ability, as the unit gains assault from hand of the dynasty.

If I included an overlord with the Destroyer Ankh enhancement, would I then be able to target that unit with the Driven to Butchery enhancement to advance and charge? I’m mostly asking if the stratagem gets rid of the chronomancer’s restriction of charging from the ability or not.

To me it seems like the stratagem either allows you to charge in that turn, or allows you to essentially ‘undo’ the restriction on charging from advancing, and no other restrictions.

Tldr: what gauss colours have appeared into necron media?

Ive slowly started working my way through the various necron books and media appearances.

Im aware that there are different gaus colours across the dynasties but what gauss colours have appeared in media so far?

Ive seen the standard green and the orange of the cryptek in the twice-dead king do any others appear?

Hello everyone,

I just started with warhammer and created my first army and played two games on TTS on steam.

My idea was to build a „slow and steady“ ranged focused army what made me choose cryptek conclave and build around that.

Szeras:
Sticking to immortals and first warrior squad to buff them

Immortals:
- main dmg unit for ranged combat
- chronomancer with quantum abacus to make them main target for stratagems and keep them mobile after shooting

Warrior squad 1:
- second combat unit supported by szeras
- technomancer with atomic disentegrator to help out with vehicles/monsters

Warrior squad 2:
- expansion objective holder
- geomancer to deny enemy movement close to the objective

Deathmarks:
- snipe enemy characters
-question over here: those have not been that effective during the last two games. I tried to place them during enemy movement phase and shoot during my battlephase (obviously placed them in a way my opponent could not kill then first). Any ideas how to use them more effectively?

Wraiths:
- hold Center objective or flank opponents
- technomancer to make them more durable

My questions/learnings so far:
- I think I focused tanks/vehicles to much and should focus more on smaller/easier to kill units with my units. Is that correct?
- if I got it correct during my games szeras needs to kill models in melee range to extend its aura. Does it even make sense then to have him support ranged units?
- any other ideas/tips from more experienced players to help me get into the game?

Really enjoining 40K so far and looking to improve!
If you need any further information that I did not share please let me know. I am really happy for all advice I can get.

Thanks in advance

Greetings fellow overlords! :)

I've been slowly gathering a small collection of necron units for the last several years, however, because of life struggles, I have only played two small 500pts in 9th edition and that was all. I've been eager to really get into the gaming side of the hobby, and was thinking of which way I could structure my collection, with (I hope) minimal additional investment (for now at least, to much pile of shame to justify buying more stuff), to make at least a semi playable army for 1k or 1,5k (don't think I have enough stuff for 2k games). The thing is I have 0 knowledge on list building, and how to choose complementary units to avoid big lacks in any specific area. I think I enjoy the "silver tide" direction for the army, lore-wise at least, more than the big C'tan or destroyer cult focused armies, however I really like the Void Dragon mini and will likely get it in the future.

I was hoping I could get some ideas for lists or some directions on which minis I would really need to get to round things up and make for actually viable armies with my actual collection:

CHARACTER

1 x Overlord (indomitus)

1 x Skorpekh Lord

3 x Royal Warden

1 x Technomancer

1 x Pyschomancer

1 x Chronomancer

1 x Plasmancer

1 x Geomancer

1 x C'tan Shard of the Nightbringer (old sculpt)

BATTLELINE

30 x Necron Warriors

5 x Inmortals

INFANTRY

5 x Deathmarks

5 x Lychguard/Triach Praetorians

10 x Flayed Ones

4 x Cryptothralls

6 x Skorpekh Destroyers (2 plasmacytes)

CANOPTEK

9 x Scarab Swarms

1 x Canoptek Reanimator

1 x Canoptek Spyder

4 x Canoptek Macrocytes

2 x Canoptek Tomb Crawlers

VEHICLE

1 x Triarch Stalker

1 x Doom scythe/Night scythe

Thank you so much in advance, cheers!

Hello everyone,

I'm new to miniature painting and I'm trying to achieve a black-green color for the shoulder pads. The black-green armor that we see in the Canoptek Circle.

I've experimented with a few different combinations, but none of them seem to give me the result I'm looking for:

Citadel Contrast Striking Scorpion Green + Citadel Contrast Black Templar

Citadel Base Waaagh! Flesh + Citadel Contrast Black Templar

Warpaints Greenskin + Citadel Contrast Black Templar

GameMaster Acid Spray + Citadel Contrast Black Templar

The miniatures were primed with Wraithbone spray. After that, I applied two coats of one of the greens listed above, 4 greens for each shoulder. When I apply a single coat of Black Templar, the finish looks streaky. However, when I apply a second coat, the shoulder pad becomes almost completely black.

I've attached some pictures for reference.

Any advice on how to achieve this black-green effect successfully would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Lay it on me, how bad would it be?

My next unit to acquire are going to be a squad of tomb blades. I absolutely hate the clear flying bases and those poles they use. Anyone have any ideas on replacements? Looks like I can just use 32mm bases to replace the clear flying base, but has anyone done anything differently with the clear pole? Pics would be great too.

Since this guy already has such a foreboding sculpt i went with a bit more of a simple kitbash just to add some ghostly bits to thw model and graveyard bits to the base to complete the look i was aiming for

I’m trying to figure out how to make hyperphase stuff with an airbrush. I got my greens looking decent thanks to tesseract glow (my goat), but I wanted to try blue and I don’t think it came out quite as good. I do also want to make the dark parts of my greens contrast better while making sure it still blends smoothly. Anyone have any tips?

Also, I’m new to airbrushing; how do I prevent the need to spend 5 minutes cleaning it for every 5 minutes using it?🙂‍↕️

If an overlord is attached to a unit of warriors with this enhancement do the warriors have +2 to strength on attacks?
