DakkaDakka - Warhammer, 40k, Warmachine and Flames of War Community.
DakkaDakka is a large, independent wargaming community that features discussion, tutorials and images for many games.
Warhammer 40,000
Our warhammer 40k forums are among our most popular. They have been operating the longest and contain discussion about every facet of warhammer 40k from tactics and army lists to background and upcoming releases.
Warhammer Fantasy
The Warhammer Fantasy Battle Forums are consistently increasing in popularity and are almost on a par with our 40k forums covering the same large range of content with advice from some of the best tacticians the world has to offer.
Warmachine and Hordes
Dakka now has one of the largest Warmachine and Hordes forums on the web, and has a huge range of Warmachine Pictures in our gallery.
Flames of War
Flames of War and other historical games are growing in popularity here on dakka and we invite anyone to join in and discuss them in detail. As flames of war grows more popular, Dakka's coverage will only increase. Be sure to check out the Flames of War gallery to see some inspiring stuff.
Dakka Features
Dakka is a big site with a lot to explore. Here we highlight some of our more interesting features:
Wargaming Gallery
The dakka gallery is one of the largest wargaming galleries in the world and has a huge range of tagged miniatures from many game systems. From flames of war to Maelstrom's Edge, and of course 40k. You can vote on images (like using hot-or-not), and use our advanced gallery search engine to find exactly what you are looking for, be it space marines, orks, cryx or Dark Elves!
Forums
The dakka forums are growing faster and faster and are the bread and butter of the website. They still maintain quality and a fair level of freedom compared to many other forums. Our most popular forum is News and Rumours, but Dakka Discussions and 40k army lists are very popular too. There are some important rules to consider (no spam, no swearing, no piracy) but everybody gets on well enough thanks to our great moderation team.
Articles
The dakka wargaming articles are run on a wiki (like wikipedia). We have a huge range of wargaming articles covering everything from tactica to modeling and painting and even some great funny stuff. If you are bored and want to have the equivalent of dozens of magazines to read then head over to the main articles page and start clicking around. Because it is a wiki, anybody can hop in and click the 'edit' tab at the top of the page, so if you have anything to add or just see some typos or bad grammar then you can help make it better for everyone.
Army Profiles
Dakka's army profiles are a throwback to the very earliest version of dakka from the late 1990s, where various armies were highlighted in detail. Our army profiles section now contains many armies from different game systems with in depth photographs, army lists and explanations of their signifigance from their owners.

My TEHNOLOGs consolidating into one thread for maximum convenience.
Enjoy

Firing mechanism that launches the missiles with the press of the trigger. Kept functional
The pilots are good for a toy but not the best.
Kit came in with extra missile launching triggers that got repurposed as tow hook fittings

Thank you for checking these out.
Dusted off old box from the Motherland of - Tehnolog Robogear
Jumping right into this because I have time! And also because got new airbrush pump and gear from harbor freight on a sale.
Look at all this delicious plastic!!! Back ten I got each unit for like 3, 4, or 6 bucks a piece. Now on ebay they are all waaaay overpriced, it is Polyethylene plastic after all.
Selected the bags with most wear and holes in them.
4 Demolishers it is.
So many cool bits. These are cheap cheap Polyethylene army-men-type toys from the early 2000.
Took a while to remove mold lines, assemble, and keep intact all shooting mechanisms
The lads are not the best, however I did find enough left and right arm bits.

<insert meme of man on gallows looking over and asking “First time?”>
So between chatting with a younger opponent Sunday and seeing Jidmah”s post in the ork tactics thread I thought it might be a good idea to have a thread to talk about edition change. Not the rules or models, although I’m sure we’ll touch on those. We’ve got the news and rumors section to really dig into those. But more general stuff. While some of us have done this a few times, for a lot of people out there, it’s their first rodeo.
Even if you don’t have plans to stick with 10th, you might want to download the rules packets/FAQ/Errata. And if you do plan on sticking with 10th, grab everything you can. While the internet never truly forgets, GW will purge the old from their web to support the new edition. Best to have a copy stashed on your hard drive.
The rules will change. Some will get better, others worse. Each edition has it’s pros and cons, and deciding on what goes on what side of the ledger is very subjective. But the game will still be 40k. They said the old codexes will still be valid, so the changes should be minor. When they reset the codexes and go with index/core book lists things can be shaken up more, but that is not the case this time.
Most of your models will be fine. Some may go to legends. Or need to be counts-as to a more modern dataslate. But unless you’ve been kitbashing for obscure options, as a newer player this is less of a worry. Older players with stuff that’s already been in legends for a few editions have a little more to fear. On the flip side, sometimes things from the past get new kits and a new lease on life. I won’t say not to worry about this, but it’s not as huge a deal as it’s made out to be. Sucks hard when it hits some of your favorite minis in your collection. But the Rule of Cool covers a lot of sins, and unless you are p...

Hi all,
We are in the preliminary stages of settling up the second edition of Bac-con, once again to raise money for the Brain Tumour Charity in honour of Paul Sawyer.
The thread for thd first edition can be found here - https://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/814703.page
I would appreciate any ideas people have for this edition, the initial thoughts are to be having it again at Firestorm Games in Cardiff sometime around April, with a few different games being played with an overarching narrative to tie together.
As before this will be a light hearted meet and play event with time for a couple of games and a raffle to raise funds for a worthy cause.
I welcome any input, thoughts or ideas.
