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
missile rack rotates 360 and goes up almost 90*

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.
Lots ...

<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.

There was a conversation in the AoS rumours thread about how Chaos is written in 40K I thought was interesting but I didn't want to derail it (I've been derailing too much lately!).
The discussion was essentially that the Imperium is supposed to be the worst regime imaginable, but various writers have made Chaos much, much worse. It's gotten more and more extreme over the years, to the point where worshipping Chaos is obviously extremely evil AND obviously extremely dumb.
I think for me the epitome of this was in the Horus Heresy series, where the Chaos side are written as fools for most of the books. The Loyalists are always really right, and especially in Dan Abnett books they're mowing down traitors left and right. It gets even worse in the Siege when most Chaos characters become non-characters and are just a stupid, possessed horde that all break and run at the end when their warp-juice goes away.
I found this to be the worst aspect of the Heresy, but it seems to be the unironic position of the BL authors that Chaos is completely evil and Chaos worshippers are all complete fools who are definitively in the wrong.
This has the effect of making the Imperium RIGHT to do all it's oppressive crap, and making them tragic good guys who are doing what they must. I've often seen fans making this point and referencing the books as proof.
As always in these sorts of threads, I have to clarify that I understand what the "canon" is and I'm not arguing about that. I'm saying that the canon is BAD, that the writers that wrote it have made the setting worse by being so one sided.
I think it's acceptable in an Imperium POV story to show Chaos without nuance. It doesn't really bother me when it's shown that way in a Gaunt's Ghosts novel for example - I think it can be quite effective. But in something like the Heresy which was showing both sides, I'd expect the...

Tis the season for building projects and I thought it would be neat to have a bit of a closer theme than just "build anything and everything."
having had a long love of the Epic scale for years (heck its what got me into wargaming back in the Titan Legions days) and seeing Mad Doc building up his legion I thought it would be cool to have a little bit of a building challenge for the year. A chance to build legions, race each other, keep pace, challenge and grow (tiny) huge armies!
So I put it to you Dakka - anyone can take part; step up and declare yourself and lets see if we can turn money into sprue and sprue into models to wage epic mass warfare!
Myself I'll be entering with the Solar Auxillia! Photos to come once I dig them all out of the various moving and packing boxes they are hiding in
