Just came to the comments to say the same thing. :P

Re: Pimpcron: To Proxy or Not To Proxy 40k Armies?

faultie — Fri, 18 May 2018 10:21:42 -0000

Some of my favorite armies that I've played against and created are all-conversion armies. They're a major part of what I love about the hobby (building/painting) aspect of 40k! My current project are Ironbeak Kroot Mercs (counts as Admech) and I'm having a freakin' blast converting them! If someone doesn't want to play against them, that's fine. I probably didn't want to play against them anyway. :P

Re: Privateer Press Says Goodbye to Press Gangers

Oh, sorry about that. I don't know how these things work. Regardless, my point was that this was a very sincere, personal effort from top to bottom.

I'll go back to reading legal texts and stop pretending to know about art. :(

And Matt Wilson, PP's owner/head guy, personally did the artwork and design for the model. The shield of the model is the same as the official PG coin that is given out to all PGs. It should be pretty sweet. https://uploads.disquscdn.c...

Having gotten the email, I will say it didn't feel unceremonious. PGs are getting a sweet Rewards Pack (for free), including custom miniature, artwork, patch, thank-you note, commendation thing, and a bunch of other bits. It at least seemed very genuine that this was something that had to happen and it was not an easy decision. I will say it sucks that it ends, but life goes on. I look forward to fielding my custom Black Ogrun Buccaneer (counts-as Ogrun Bokur) in the future.

That is, until GW finally puts out some Arbites to fight the GS Cults, at which point I'm back on the wagon, hard. :P

I think Warmachine is transitioning to a free rules model starting soon (March?). Agree with your point otherwise tho.

It was an intentional style choice I went with, as I really liked the dirty visual style Goatboy uses. It's not drybrushing that gives it the grody look (although there was some drybrushing on the hard edges), it's sloppy washing (hives aren't clean places). More of Goatboy's work on the Arbites can be seen here: http://fullofmonkey.com/blo....

I believe a PP designer once said that a model for a Dragon (say, Toruk) would probably have to be a couch cover.

What is, the Gozanti? Movie version is only about 6-7m longer (but not as wide). Cartoon version is close-ish to twice as long, but not quite.

Re: X-Wing RUMORS: Beyond Wave 7

faultie — Thu, 23 Apr 2015 23:31:49 -0000

Scum includes lots of fairly powerful organizations, including Black Sun. They may not have Star Destroyers, but ships in the ~150m length range aren't terribly hard to come by for such organizations.

Re: X-Wing RUMORS: Beyond Wave 7

faultie — Thu, 23 Apr 2015 23:30:46 -0000

Oh yeah? Huh, had not heard of that. Doesn't make sense that it got much smaller, though, given that it still has to hold a Z95 internally, plus cargo, plus crew, etc. That something they did for the cartoons? I'll have to check Wookieepedia later.

Re: X-Wing RUMORS: Beyond Wave 7

faultie — Thu, 23 Apr 2015 11:34:09 -0000

Gozanti, despite its popularity, just isn't big enough. Depending on which description you go with (EP:1 or Clone Wars), it's between 41 and 64m long. The YV-666 (new Scum large ship) is 62m long, and the smallest huge ship (Rebel GR-75) is 90m. By comparison, the CR90 is 150m, same as the Imperial Raider. If we don't see something like an Action IV outfitted as an interceptor frigate, I think we'll likely get a brand new ship design (like the Raider).

Honestly, given their prolific nature, I'd be ok with just a repainted CR90 with S&V cards and characters. :D

What Empire? As far as I can tell, there won't be one of those left either.

Re: Forgeworld: Now THAT is a Superheavy Tank!

faultie — Tue, 20 Jan 2015 12:42:43 -0000

True, but I still love the look WAY more than the other super-heavies. The Machiarius Vulcanian is just too cool (and yes, I have one, and it's awesome).

Re: Forgeworld: Now THAT is a Superheavy Tank!

faultie — Tue, 20 Jan 2015 08:14:28 -0000

The 2nd lowest picture (above the Epic model) is just a standard pattern Macharius. Treads and front compartment give it away.

There is a large-scale format called "Unbound". It's popular among people that like large-scale games. I find it a big slow-going, but if you're used to 2500pt WHFB games it's probably about right.

You can load up a Battlebus with Infantry, and then put that Battlebus in a Hovercraft. It's a sort of nesting-doll of Resistance.
