I really love reading your posts Red

Trying to turn lemons into lemonade maybe?

I may try AOS just for interest sake, but I very much doubt I'll stop playing 8th

I second that.
If it was such a bad game, why play? Why even join a forum dedicated to one of the races in said game?

We just use the 40k rules for vehicles as a guide. Even big monsters can appreciate cover.
Stupid GW.

Wow. Just, wow!

It all sounds like it's heading back to 2nd ed

Love it!

I love my core troops, especially my dread spears. Why? Because I like the spectacle of warhammer, I play for fun and love seeing my big units of painted core advancing across the table. People also underestimate the dread spears.

Welcome back. I'm just over in three kings if you ever wanna game, just PM me

Those helmets look much better than the official offerings
Nice work

I use this stuff...

Really good, and you can use it on plastic with no damage. I once soaked some Bretonian knights for a week, and the were all good.

Not too hard on the pocket either (or your skin)

ok, so here it is!
take note that its on a 6x4 table

Finally it has arrived! After a frenzy of activity, and a pile of plastic shavings on the couch which I will in no doubt get in trouble for from the wife, the beast is assembled. In a fortunate turn of events GW incompetence has worked in my favor and I received an extra section of wall that I did n...

I've been thinking about this too actually. I reckon they would have a pretty good chance of being successful. Let just take a minute to think about I5 assault troops like raptors and warp talons... Coupled with nasty long range attacks. It would be a case of finding the balance is all.

Update: Despite many promises from GW that it will be sent and arrive in the next shipment, I am still without my fortress. I feel kinda sorry for Allan, the manager at Takapuna Vagabond, each time I call he tells me that GW have promised its on the way then proceeds to apologise to me. Not your fau...

Very cool

I too really like the 6th ed range. Except for the coldones, the knights are cool but the beasts themselves........ I personally like to mix the models in my units, just for variety. My witch elves contain 4th and 6th ed, oh, and one 5th ed. Have a look at my army in my sig as it contains a range of...

A master on DS can vanguard and can get a pair of handbows.

I have had some good results with this build. Look out lone wizards!

I shall have a look through my dusty old books. 2002 annual you say? Will start there!

I think it looks great, not too chaotic. He'll, I have DE swordsmen with the star of their belt buckles so I don't think it's an issue at all

So, a couple of weeks before Xmas I finally bit the bullet and ordered this... m Also ordered an extra wall section so I can make a decent castle not just a square. Anyhow, I finally here back from the retailer today and he tells me that GW no longer actually sell it as a complete kit, only the comp...

Welcome

So much good advice coming in, and who says Druchii are uncaring? Just a question, what brushes are you using? When I first started painting I used synthetic, when I switched to proper brushed it made a vast difference. They can be expensive but good brushes will last a long time if properly cared f...

Damn! And I thought I had a lot! LORDS/ HEROS Dreadlord on dragon Malekith on coldone Malus Fellheart Morathi Peglord 2x sorceresses on dark steeds 4 x sorceresses on foot BSB on foot BSB on coldone Master/lord on cold one Master/ lord on dark steed 2x Master/ lord on foot Cauldron 4x assassin CORE ...

I ended up taking the second land raider. He had two leman Russ, two leman Russ variants ( the ones with the horrendous Gatling gun) and two chimera, three infantry and a squad of ogryns. The ogryns caused me the biggest pain, man they are tough! Loved using two Land Raiders! Might start doing it mo...

Looks pretty nice to me
