  1. The fact that the shots are increased in the rule tells me it prolly gets half shots all around but pumps both barrels into overwatch.
  2. Looks goofy but you could plan the tank movement to reduce the rotational movement of the turret... All tanks need turret off to the side about 45 degrees
  3. Interesting thought... Rotate the turret as the tank moves so the barrel doesn't move at all...
  4. Or just be careful with the placement to limit the number of models in support range... Half inch will be limiting...
  5. The CP refund for the warlord was printed on the command benefits section of other detachments... I suspect the Titanic knights will expand the special rule of their character status to give the refunds. This will have interesting impacts on other Lords of war
  6. You don't have to cover... Just own and move on! Focus on their speedy stuff with shooting engage the slower stuff cut it apart! The mission expects lower unit counts, I was hoping for a tease of how control and force org slot interact... Just to feel secure in how much troops are needed or not as the case may be
  7. This is what I figured... As long as my Marine models have a ruleset I'll use it... Once it is only primaris structure I'll cobble squads together that way. Old Marines are everywhere so if the full replacement happens I'll just stock up on weapons and old bodies... This is kind of what happened to me with the third edition orks. The sculpts were so different I had to decide to either keep the old stuff and buy all I could to keep playing or sell my old stuff to those that were gonna cling to it. I got over fair market value back then in chaos marine models and the rest is history. I was too young and barely had 2k in 2nd Ed points to invest in keeping what would become a retro look. This time around loading up on retro will save me painting time!
  8. You can pry my Marines from my cold dead hands! Honestly though I'll field them as the sub par shlubs they are until they no longer exist. Then they'll be primaris Marines as I suspect primaris will be dropped from their name at the same time... So I'll always just play Marines!
  9. I played a single game of second... I do not look fondly at it...
  10. Digital gaming means no models to paint? Might be the answer to why do much 'Nid action.
  11. Hadn't considered varying the ratio depending on how stretched the sheer stuff was... <Slaps forehead> sounds kinda duh now that you typed it! That actually does sound very doable, simple and useful! Appreciation to you sir.
  12. About what ratio medium to color did you use for that sheer look? I've got some Malifaux rotten belles I've built but I'm afraid to paint due to visions of dresses matching stockings and this could be a super simple way... Paint dress no medium then add medium paint over already dry skin tones...
  13. Agreed, but in these uncertain times getting out of liability 100% to stay solvent is far better than risking it.
  14. I do but I'm in Bellingham...
  15. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/scale75/instant-colors-paints-for-gamers I love scale 75 and contrast paints have been my jam! These ones are formulated tough enough to skip the varnish step...
  16. Yeah I love the new formula stuff for paint, I'm a paint it for the table guy not a competition winner. That said I love scale 75 and they are entering this space with an offering right now. They recently did a toughness test and rubbed fingers over a model with no varnish and the paint stayed on. Personally I can't wait till October! Scale has delivered multiple starters on time in my personal experience.
  17. I had some warping on the thinner roll as well... Found that it is soft enough you can just flatten it and lay so super glue (thin) into any crack that develops. It will break between cobbles any way so you won't see it once painted... Thank you so much for this BTW. This is so much quicker, scalable and dependable for basing not to mention reasonably priced!
  18. I both like and want to thank you! Appreciate the ideas and look forward to your stint as HoG!
  19. For me as a captain the stress comes from having to add a person... Always seem to be one short or two extra who disappear when I lose a person I thought was locked. All that people management while trying to get an army together... I'm playing Malifaux right now! I don't want more 40k and while I'm pretty sure I could do chaos Marines my most likely fifth plays that so I'm doubled up again... In years past we've missed out on points for not having a cohesive theme, this year it is adding tons of extra stress that we have so much overlap. <Shrugs> I'll work hard (like 105% not 110%) to make a team but failing that I might just go rogue and play a little blood bowl or stay home with my fate deck. Splitting teams is not an option as we barely have one team worth of 40kers left.
  20. This solves all hardships and allows a few of the peeps to play Age of Sigmar! I might play Bloodbowl with my Lucky Gitz...
  21. With all the things going on I get that we don't have much information. One of the new things worries me, guidelines for the factions in each team. We Bellingham Warhamsters travel quite a ways and are a bit of an odd collection of armies. We don't invest in changing our armies every year and this could impact our ability to field teams. With the OFCC fast approaching and how little time people will have leading up to it I feel (after too much time right now) we need to see these guidelines sooner rather than later. Thank you @Huffnpuff excited to see some new HoG action!
  22. He is looking for blood bowl specific blocking dice
  23. You still in Bellingham? I am and have all the necromunda... I'm down at Dark Tower most Wednesdays let me know if you wanna look through the books.
