    I swear, if the 40k MMO involves having a group of space marines, two eldar aspect warriors, and a lone imperial guardsman on an Abbadon raid I will be mighty pissed.

    There is an MMORPG now that let's you control a small group. It sucks.

    Hopefully they do it better with the 40K MMO, because I wanna have a full squad of motherfucking Karskins loaded out with plasma guns and grenade launchers, complete with visual and stat customization of every individual character in the squad.

    Having characters control small DoW-style squads while running around the world would FUCKING RULE.

    Players would be able to deck out their squads with different shit, maybe if you're a space marine you've got some Havocs in tow, or maybe you could switch them out for a swarm of Guardsmen or something. Nid players would be synapse creatures with swarms of gaunts running around with them. Ork players would have boyz in tow or bunches of grots or something or could give all that up and hop in a Killa Kan and later a Dread.... GRAAAAAH THAT WOULD RULE

    The various theories I have had about what the 40k mmo is are everything from an Inquisitorial band to controlling an army like Dawn of war where you are the commander and everything between

    every concept for an 40k MMO just sounds like DoW.

    Pretty sure even if all they did was stick DoW in a persistant world, it'd be a completely different game.

    No, it wouldn't because you'd have to put in the framework for that persistant world.

    Sort of like the Dark Crusade campaign map in a multiplayer, persistant setting.

    Sounds pretty different to me.

    Jam- have you considered using fiber optics? I don't mean the expensive kind, just the little ones they use on the hokey ass christmas trees and whatnot. That way you can stick the l.e.d. in the base and just run a little clear wire up to the area to be illuminated. Would probably work a lot better for very small items like eyes or areas where you wanted multiple lights.

    Here's a star destroyer with fiber optics as an example:

    I'm trying to think up a paint scheme for my warmachine figs that says "I AM SUPER FUNKY FROM THE 1970s". but the only thing I can come up with is purple/gold/leopard print.

    Anyone got any suggestions on how to turn these mothers out?

    It's for warmachine and not 40k, so most of the figs are some kind of hulking half bootleg machine.

    The idea is to paint them up to look like funky ass cars from the 70s. Like the kind that you might see James Brown tooling around in.

    I should have mentioned it previously, but afros and flared pants have been in the plan since the beginning.

    Also, my warcaster is holding the giant cup from the old GW Brother Captain Tycho model, only it's been painted/glitterized to look like a chalice of pimping +5.

    EDIT: The cup didn't come from Tycho, I forget who I cut it off of. Maybe a dark angel or something like that.
