Thanks for the gift!

I am currently in the process of finishing the first 1,000 points of my crimson fists army. Right now I am focusing on my techmarine and librarian. I have no idea what tinge paintscheme should be on either of them. I was thinking of doing most of the techmarine red, but I have no clue for the librarian. Thanks to all who help!

I am currently growing my army and maybe thinking about having some sort of knight armiger or otherwise in my Crimson Fists-adjacent detachment. I currently have one 1/144 HG G-Self Gunpla Kit (For any of you gunpla nerds on this forum) and I have the HGUC 1/144 RX78-01 FSD kit coming today. I thought about how big the gunpla kits are, as they seem to hover around 5-6 inches tall, compared to the Knight Armiger/Helverins. Could anybody help me out with the size comparison, I might want to do two custom Zaku II F2s rather than the ones I have. Thanks in advance!

So I recently played a very nice intro game to 40k with @paxmiles and I have expanded my army just a little bit. Now I am closer to 1000 pts, having five troops, and three HQs for one battalion detachment. I am looking into joining a local 40k League, but the only one that works with my current schedule is the 40k Escalation League at Dice Age Games. If anyone could give me a little bit more information on that league, or where to go to be able to play 40k casually, that would be extremely helpful. Keep in mind that I am underage, so things like the Critical Sip 40k matches that are hosted at GG will not work for me. I would hope to play at a shop up near Vancouver, WA, as I live around there. If anyone wants to set up just a regular old match, that is fine with me, but it would have to be either very north portland or vancouver.

From Guardian games, which is where I will be that day, to the WOW clubhouse, is a six-minute walk, so I could take my army and play if you could find out if we could use some of the space that day?

True

I think I will most likely end on a redemptor (ETB) because I like the long and close range of it, one Pedro Kantor, and maybe either a close combat scout squad, or a squad of devastators. Because of the long range as well as pricing, I think I will lean towards the scout squad, and get either Kantor or the dreadnought later, by the end of the summer.

The set I was looking at was roughly 25 USD, which seemed good for the amount within.

I was looking around, and I found one of the old build+paint sets with paint, a brush, five terminators and a dreadnought. Is that any good, Or should I avoid older models? I think for troops I might get a close combat Scout Squad and a squad of Devastators. I am not completely set on my next HQ units, but I was leaning towards either Pedro Kantor (As I play Crimson Fists) or the Space Marines Heroes set (With the Cataphractii Captain and a Chaplain).

How good is the load out on the easy to build redemptor dreadnought. It’s cheaper than the regular, but maybe that’s due to having no load out choices. Also, how good are chaplains? I was thinking of making one be High Chaplain Tomasi

I currently have for my crimson fists set-up a captain, one sniper scout squad, and one primaries intercessors combat squad. This brings me to just over 300 points. I want to expand my army, but I have no idea as to what I should get. I was leaning away from tactical squads, as my good friend who is leaving for the summer is gifting me two (very) well-loved 10-man squads. I wanted to stay within the bounds of the Adeptus Astartes, so I would not need to buy another codex. If anyone can help, that would be peachy keen. On another note, I want to get either an index or codex for my army, to help with extra bits and bobs for reference mid-battle. I noticed that the first imperium index contained space marines, and was only ~25$, while the strictly space marines codex was ~50$. Which is better in your opinion, or what is the better option to go with?

I think GG might be a little further than what I’m looking for, but maybe one of these coming weekends would work? This weekend could, the one after cannot, the weekend after that is fine, but nothing on sundays

Yep. I’m only 16

If it is at the bar area, I would not be able to join in, but when else would you be available?

++ Patrol Detachment (Imperium - Space Marines) [16 PL, 289pts] ++ + No Force Org Slot + **Chapter Selection**: Crimson Fists + HQ + Captain [5 PL, 97pts]: Combi-melta, Power sword + Troops + Intercessor Squad [5 PL, 96pts]: Auto Bolt Rifle, Auxiliary Grenade Launcher, 4x Intercessor, Intercessor Sergeant Scout Squad [6 PL, 96pts] . Scout Sergeant: Combat knife, Sniper rifle . Scout w/Heavy Weapon: Missile launcher . 3x Scout w/Sniper Rifle: 3x Sniper rifle ++ Total: [16 PL, 289pts] ++ Created with BattleScribe

In the Camas area, but could go as far as northward Portland, and the entire Vancouver area.

So I am relatively new to the 40k scene, I have been painting since last October, playing other games since September, and I want to start playing 40k. My friend showed me the basic rules a couple weeks ago, and after that, I put together a bare-minimum army of just over 300 points. If anyone would want to teach me or just play a game, PM me, on here or on GameFor @wargamingCalligrapher. If anyone could help me out, that would be great!

I’ve been looking at warmachine recently, because of the 20$ mk II boxes, but I don’t want to pop some money on it quite yet. Does anyone know where I could go/ who I could talk to to get an intro game for warmachine? If anyone helps, thanks.

I just ran the beginner box session with my brothers and dad, and for Xmas, I got the Core Rulebook. I am wanting to start a campaign with them, as well as my school friends later this month. What modules/ adventure paths, if any should I use? If not, where should I go to find a good campaign or adventure? Thanks to to all those who help out

If you can PM me with details, that would be great. I’m actually planning on buying the beginners box tonight, but having books later would be awesome. Thanks!

What do you mean by a “small collection”

I’ve been playing 2nd, BX, and 5th edition of dnd for a while, but it has all been through my brother, who is the master of tomes in my house. Now that he has left for college, I have no books to use. I’m trying to run a campaign with my other siblings, but I’m stuck on what system to start with. I’m either leaning towards Pathfinder (beginner box), or 5e D&D (starter set). Which system is better (pros and cons) and which starter set should I buy? Thanks in advance to anyone who helps out!

@paxmiles thanks! I’ll be sure to start working on that

I just got the El Alamein box last week, played a couple times, and loved the game. Would anyone possibly be into mid-war? Also, how should I bolster my armies without cashing in 160$ on the Monty and Rommel box?

i bought the storm of Sigmar box a couple months ago, and have played quite a bit. For me, terrain increases the setting, but I have no idea where to get terrain. I am leaning away from games workshop, because of the price, where should I look for terrain that isn’t going to break the bank? Should I make my own terrain?
