iIt's just that I don't have enough for the termies I have. I was wondering If anyone would nitpick if I didnt have them.

Also, one of the codpieces has an =][= symbol.... wtf?

Okay, crotch plates then ;p

Nah, I didnt think it mattered. I only got new assault termies recently, with extra bodies and legs off ebay so I can have up to 10.

No extra crotch plates though

OK, so now I've made a fool of myself I'll scuttle off.

Cheers!

They certainly aren't mandatory - the weapons will make it clear what you're fielding. In my case, my main opponent plays Chaos so I want my Deathwing to have as much protection as I can give them.

It's the weapons that determine whether or not your Terminators are regular or assault Terminators. No one is going to think your assault Terminators are normal ones because they don't have a bulging codpiece.

What? Of course they're mandatory. Where did you think they got their 3+ invulnerable save?

I forgot about the invulnerable save. I retract my previous statement. Codpieces are now mandatory, and significant enlar....*cough*...er, conversion, is expected and encouraged.


Conversion. I meant conversion.

This is the most awesome topic in P&M since the Slaaneshi Soulgrinder.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.

Of which Cheese E's obsesed with.

As to codpieces, do you want to hear the jokes of why your termies failed their armour saves?

Just to be safe, you should probably toss a codpiece on all your termies. Somewhere out there, a Xenos race could exist whose soldiers are specifically trained to make groin shots, and only groin shots. Are you going to heartlessly force your termies to take that risk? Don't be a fool - Armour plate your tool!
