Yes, they are very cool. I just have a long-standing, completely irrational hatred of IG... Stems from living through 3rd Edition.

What didn't? They had a thousand tanks that could all shoot indirectly. You'd get blown to he-double toothpics before you could even cross the board. Oh, and the cheesy assassins. Oh, and Yarrick... oh, and etc. etc. etc.

While IG are still a very good army, I can play them and enjoy myself, not so back then. Everybody hated guard... far more than any other army of the period.

As someone who was using IG pretty solidly through 3rd edition, that wasn't my experience at all - I'd need to double-check my old 'dex, but as I recall the indirect tank weapons (by which you're referring to the Griffon and Basilisk) all had quite a hefty minimum range. The only other indirect fire weapons were infantry mortars, which have never been the most terrifying of weapons.

When it comes down to idiotically overpowered books in 3rd edition, I've got two words for you - Chaos 3.5.

Ifalna wrote:Just got an email in reply to the one I sent Gw explaining that the replacement gobbo I received was as bad as the original.

Hello

Thank you for your email. We have recived a replacement set of the goblins, they have been checked and confirmed that they are of the best standard currently available. There are some fine holes but they are in the undercuts such as beneath robes and one which is under the nose and do not interfear with the detail, a small amount of liquid greenstuff applied with an old brush should resolve them.

We will have these replacements with you as soon as possible. If you have any problems please do not hesitate to get in touch.


The underlined part strikes me as an extremely strange thing to say to a customer about your product, is it just me?

I am however happy with the clearly hand typed email with direct communication, if the gobbo arrives and does just have tiny bubbles I can easily fill with PVA and has no detail loss, then I am ok with that. I would have preferred it not take weeks, but they did in fairness send me a second mangler box I did not request so I can't complain.

Fingers crossed this Gobbo is usable.


Sorry for the slight delay answer, but that answer will hopefully made some smart dumba** stop creating threads with the purpose of saying you are all idiots by complaining about finecast, I have bought innumerous models (normally 2) and they were perfect.

Generations have suffered with the same devotion that we can offer but once. Still, our Faith leads us through these dark times like a beacon. It will guide us to triumph over these abominations.

Glory to the Twelfth! Glory to Angron!

‎"Because we couldn’t be trusted. The Emperor needed a weapon that would never obey its own desires before those of the Imperium. He needed a weapon that would never bite the hand that feeds. The World Eaters were not that weapon. We’ve all drawn blades purely for the sake of shedding blood, and we’ve all felt the exultation of winning a war that never even needed to happen. We are not the tame, reliable pets that the Emperor wanted. The Wolves obey, when we would not. The Wolves can be trusted, when we never could. They have a discipline we lack, because their passions are not aflame with the Butcher’s Nails buzzing in the back of their skulls. The Wolves will always come to heel when called. In that regard, it is a mystery why they name themselves wolves. They are tame, collared by the Emperor, obeying his every whim. But a wolf doesn’t behave that way. Only a dog does. That is why we are the Eaters of Worlds, and the War Hounds no longer."

—Captain Khârn of the World Eaters Legion's 8th Assault Company, from his unpublished treatise The Eighteen Legions

My Carnifex sold so he is being shipped off today, I am super happy as I now have all the funds I needed to stock up on supplies and get my webcam for recording Good week for Sarah!

The owner of the sorcerer was totally happy with him, and I am sending off the plasma boys today. The guns were hilarious, lots and lots of fun!

Those Hamster Zerkers are likely to be my downfall too but I'm resisting the urge so far.

It doesn't help that the wife and I are fans of skirmish style games like Mordheim.


The secret to painting a really big army is to keep at it. You can't reach your destination if you never take any steps.

Guinea pigs are so much fun lol!! I owned a number of them when I was younger.
They like to crawl all over and make tuneful squeeking noises when they get excited
On the other hand if you hold vegitables within sniffing distance and they catch a whiff they make a high pitch squeeling excited noise that would rival the sound blasters of Noise Marines

I am going to have SO much fun. I had one when I was very little who was the best pet I have ever owned, but he was very sadly killed by a cat who scaled our extension outside to get into my bedroom window while he was having floor time, breaking my tiny 6 year old heart.

These two are going to be wrapped in cotton wool and bubblewrap, I will be totally overprotective.
