    You can replace the head on the Terminator Librarian. I think unhelmeted Librarians look cooler though.

    It rained today so I worked on just the kitties in the new Escher stuff
    they get collars! but when I was selecting what base to put them on my brother made fun of how the bases are the real money bits for necromunda [he wants to get some Van Saar gangers bits the bodies to build some with the claws and shields but makes fun of how often you find those for less than 10 but the bases for 20+

    Really? But you can just buy them direct from GW for less than that… like $6.50 for 10 or something.

    ...because dragons are AWESOME! That's why.

    I know but we were making fun of what bits cost on ebay

    Ugh, that reminds me that for reasons I missed the deadline for three auctions for the Light of Eltharion buy someone who put them in for 1€ and all three were sold for less than 8€.

    Hey, speaking of bits... I was looking for some Dark Angels torsos that were apparently discontinued and found the rogue trader website... it looks like some really good deals on forgeworld stuff, so what’s the catch? Are they legit? Are there any bit sellers outside of eBay that the forum would recommend?

    edit: ok I figured it out. They recast or whatever it's called.

    What's the quality like on your average recast? Never messed with that stuff.

    Varies wildly. I've seen stuff that's better than your average forgeworld cast, but also stuff thatsmishapen garbage.
    Mostly comes from places with very lax approaches to copyright, like Russia and China, so assume anything forgeworld or rare or oop at a suspeciously low price from there is probably a recast.

    I have been looking for the metal harlequins {the shadow seer and death jester as well as some of the troupe}
    More often than not I find recasts
    I don't know if they did the previous inucbi in metal but I have found them redone in it as well as even worse resin

    Apparently Feculent Gnarlmaws + Nurgle-marked Possessed is a thing. Pretty interesting way to protect them at deployment but also help get them into the middle of the board.

    Played the third round of our Crusade campaign verse eldar with my Ad Mech. I will try a write up tomorrow. But overall it was a massacre with my Ad Mech coming out on top. And I am 100% sold on the Ad Mech Bomber now. It is just a utility piece. It can do mortals, it can shut down auras, it forces specific movement due to autoexplode. I really like it.

    Given how ultra poor comic sales are, if a reasonable number of 40k fans bought that it'd be a top seller.

    … anyone know why the cultists/traitor guard aren’t, y’know, shooting back?
    Seriously, exactly one of them has his gun up and firing; all the others are standing around slack jawed like “where’d those guys come from all of a sudden?”

    For reals though I guess people who thought 40k would be toned down a lot for the comic were wrong.

    Preview is about to start. Judging by the silhouettes the model side of the preview is all marines and necrons

    Necrons getting some freaky characters and another kind of destroyers.
    Space Marines: how many more bolt variants can we add to the threehoundredfiftythousand there are already? Apparently some more.

    I like the new Crusade rules where you can "upgrade" a guy into a whole new model. Putting a wounded Marine into a Dreadnought is an awesome narrative event.

    Now I can't stop thinking about all the cool little things you could do with Chaos - Cultists mutating into Spawn, Terminators getting infected with the Obliterator virus, Lords ascending to become Daemon Princes, etc.

    Aw, I missed it. Anything super cool revealed?

    Blood Angels, Death Guard, Deathwatch and Space Wolves are the next Codices after Marines and Necrons.

    Lots of new models for Marines and Necrons. Heavy Intercessors sound fucking terrifying, especially if they're a troops choice.

    The Forgeworld update is coming soon.

    Oop. Beat to it. I'd say though specifically that the additional Marine things are codex supplements, not Codexes.

    I sure fucking hope those Heavy Intercessors are, y'know, Heavy Support.

    All the marines are a single book so BA, DW, and SW are basically just getting supplements and then Marines are basically done for the edition. That is kind of nuts.

    Death Guard are one of the oldest codexes. Necrons look awesome.

    So for +2 power for 5 models they get +1t, +1w, -1m, and their guns +6" range and +1s and they occupy the same slot.

    Each of the three armour variants Primaris have could fill a more complete codex than some whole factions by now, I think.

    Let's hope that at least some of the other xenos and chaos books get something like that necron expansion.
