Don't Panic Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 The guns for the price is what makes them so good. The 5 man link is brutal cause you have long range guns with b2 and pan-o bs with +3. And 23 points for 2w is an insanely low cost. Seems everthong in pan o is very cost efficient. I scratch my head at the cost of some things in my faction as a lot of it doesn't make sense. Why is a deva with a combi 24 points? A great comparison is that knight which has better weapons and pretty much better or same stats across the board... I think CB puts a little too much value on wip imo. Wip really is only great on specialists.. Just make sure you have unloaded markers cause you will need them to keep track who hasn't blasted something to smitherings. The knight link is why I don't get people hating on myrmidons. Myrmidons do not have the capability to have 5 man links. They also are more expensive for a single wound except the chain rifle. Sure we have better officers that we use in that link but they are expensive. Beating the knight link takes some tricks I think. Kill/isolate the leader or my favorite option being lay a few flame templates and hope one fails it's dodge lol. I murdered a knight link with a single flame bot at that tournament the other week. Sure some bad luck for him but knights hate fire templates.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted October 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 I have plenty of unloaded tokens :)When you consider how myrmidons are priced, consider what I would give to have smoke and ODD. Myrms are an absolute nightmare if you aren't packing the right tools to fight them, and they have a specialist option. __________________Not much will be done today. I have a few sergeants to assemble, and I have to do some things for work. The rest of my time will be spent cleaning and resting, probably less resting than I would like.

rudra34 Posted October 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 I officially have 11 various order sergeants assembled and ready for action. They really do fill almost every roll that an army needs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted October 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 Got the detail work complete on the water tower. If the weather is generous tomorrow then I will get it sprayed and start painting it up. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 Are the supports done? It looks like it could use a little more support both from a "real world" and game table point of view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If nothing else, Jotums are beefy, awesome robots, and two of them running around would make me happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don't Panic Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Oh it is definitely not terrible lol. But I'd say pretty one dimensional. Fusiliers not being in a link are not scary at all. If you get first turn that will be a wrecking crew... But what I'm worried about is people will kill your easy targets and order starve your jotums. Either that or they can isolate them via hacking or kill them with heavy guns or run up CC specialists. I think double TAG is just too much in two ponies. But what do I know lol. It does look like fun though.. I mean I have an all robot list that I want to play sometime :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudra34 Posted October 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Got more support done on the tower and removed the guards from the top. I want the control panel up there, but there was too much in too small of a space. Didn't look right.I am still waiting on a long over-due peacemaker to come in at Dice Age, this week's list will have to do without. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted October 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Took a solid loss from Peanut and his Frenchies last night. He is a great player and always uses his lists well. Also, his lucky crit against my hospitaller knight pretty much sealed things (no healing for me!) The last order of the game he nailed my lieutenant with a rocket that needed a 1 to hit. It was the most epic crit of all time, and I was happy to be a part of it. I think for next week I will bring a list with a good amount of knights in it. They are always entertaining and bring a lot of pain. Expect to see a lot of Magisters out of link (impetuous wall of death ftw!)Today I'm hoping to get some terrain work done. I really love how my tables are looking and I want to get more done. The goals for this week will be to finish at least two existing builings, get all of them to a primed state, and to build one larger building, either a power plant or landing pad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peanut Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 I was kinda hoping to see that magister link in action last night, I'm not afraid! Tags scare me though. Yeah that was maybe the most epic crit of all time. Thanks for the great game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted October 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 I'll bring a list that has the link in case we end up playing. It has it's weaknesses, but is essentially a murder factory. Don't be scared of tags, just keep bringing rockets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted October 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 On a roll today. Tower is finished and primed, also 3 sections of wall done, 2 more buildings primed, and 8 small barriers primed or painted.Also, with army builder back up I can waste the majority of my free time making lists I will never use! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted October 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Got a concept done for what I would like to do with the barriers, and seeing how it looks to put the sectorial markers on things. I definitely need to invest in a 10mm hole punch. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted October 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Finished one more barricade between chores today. For some unknown reason I have been given tomorrow off from work, so I should have plenty of time to work on things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudra34 Posted October 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Thanks guys. I will hopefully get a bunch done tomorrow and Friday.PETE - I realized just now that in my last turn of our game I should have been in retreat. I skipped over it because I have never had to do it before...You would have won either way, but 2 crates to 0, not 2 to 1. Good game either way, thanks for the stomping!Edit - Or maybe not. I was thinking for 300 points, not 230. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted October 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 8 Barricades done, but only symbols on 2. Can't decide if I want to leave them blank or wait until I get a hole punch. Also did a little painting on some of the smaller pieces, picking away at everything slowly.Trying to decide what list I want to bring tomorrow. It's either tons of camo board-control shenanigans, or tons of HI murder-death shenanigans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudra34 Posted October 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 What do you do when there is only one Father Knight model, but you don't want to hash out 30 bucks on ebay or invest in an entire Operation Icestorm box? BUILD YOUR OWN MOFO! Kit-bash of Santiago Knight and the ORC trooper from the Pano starter box. He's my first kit-bash/convert for Infinity, and I think it looks pretty sweet. Once the greenstuff and glue are 100% set I will cut/grind away the excess. Probably wont to a ton of these, as the kits are all awesome on their own. As always, sorry for the crappy iphone 4 pictures. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudra34 Posted October 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 I may have to borrow this idea if you don't mind! I want a father... Not at all, feel free to take the idea! So far this week I've done nothing. I spent yesterday resting and cleaning out the refrigerator, which desperately needed to be done. Today I want to finish the two models that I have on the painting table, fix one of the buildings that has split, and get it ready to prime. If I have extra time I'm dying to start painting that father knight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
