It is worth mentioning that the ballista only gets +2 to saves in cover against shooting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desolater Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 (edited) Cheers guys really appreciate this many replies. so I’m thinking of starting with 2 ballista on the table with the Ordinator. Then one in the sky along with 10 Seqs and a Castellant. Deep strike those bad boys T2/T3. still want to use the skinks to screen so.... if I am to do this, does anyone have any preferences on the load out?

Desolater Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Curious about something: how long would you say roughly it takes you to paint? As a batch let’s say 5 sequitors? im curious if I’m in the same average painting time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am slow though and go a but above tabletop. I can paint faster and did 30 vulkites in 14 sessions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a batch let’s say 5 sequitors? im curious if I’m in the same average painting time? I’m averaging about 4-5 hours per model these days. Baring in mind that’s everything, from plastic on the sprue to completely finished product. In calendar days it’s working out to roughly two weeks per unit. So in a year I can more or less finish about 26 “projects” of various sizes. However larger centrepiece models can take up to three times that long, which is why I’m often reticent to start larger projects. I only tend to paint a huge model maybe once a year. I’ve attached a sample of the quality of work that I aim for, for reference. Further to the above, I don’t like cutting corners, and I’ve found that if I try to go much faster, the model just looks worse. If anything, if I wanted a better quality, the solution would be to spend even more time on them. I think if I could learn to use an airbrush effectively, I might be able to shave an hour or two off the process, sometimes. Especially with larger projects. But I’m not terribly concerned because I actually enjoy painting. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't really messed with bases yet I can come back for those parts 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desolater Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Great replies and interesting to see your guys miniatures, all looking a very reasonable standard, sounds like I’m about average in terms of time and in terms of skill, still improving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeratul Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 On 1/14/2019 at 9:03 AM, schwabbele said: So had a small 4 people "tourney" on the weekend. 3 games. Took a 10 man Evo bomb with two 20 Sequitor blobs to complete the bullshiet experience. Went 3 - 0 , nobody had fun not even me. Played Death ( VLoZD, 4 Morghast , Skeletons ) Ironjawz and Skaven. IJ and Skaven were test lists but I still think they can't do much against my list. Death game was somewhat funnier because we made a lot of mistakes and forgot stuff All in all kinda meh and underwhelming, back to list building and theoreycrafting I guess. Could you post yout list? Im interested in building a SCE army based on lots of sequitors (Iove the models with Anvils of Heldenhammer scheme, like black templars) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenshin620 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Anyone just seen that the Feb White Dwarf cover is focusing on SCE (more specifically the Hammerhands)? Thats interesting, I guess in much the same way Space Marine Chapters getting extra rules in WD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incineroar87 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Is it likely we will get a new stormcast chamber this year ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nos Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) Playing 1000 point vs Night Haunt tomorrow. Not played them in a while, I think the majority of it is the Soul Wars set. What should I be watching for and what’s desirable to field against them? I have at least one unit of most options to pick from.

Incineroar87 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Oh good. I was worried Evocators and Sequitors would get replaced by some new models or something if Stormcast was to get new support. Wicked ❤️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradipo322 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hey guys I just noticed something strange in the Sequitors multiplart kit. There are 4 swords that have a different desing from the ones that you can see on the box, as they seem bigger that the standard ones I tought that maybe they where supposed to be the special version of the swords (just like the greatmaces are the special version of the maces) and they are in the same number as the greatmaces. Has GW ever aknowledged this? Could this be "fixed" in the next GHB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
