Hey people,

I think I am going to get some storm guardians for my eldar army,but I am not sure what is in there

I have to figure out what is in there first and then I wll do purchase

Anyone have any experience putting together the box set?I just wanna know how many melta and how many flamers are in there,is there extra weapons and is it metal

Thanks for helps and correct my poor english

Guardians with metal close combat weapons. It's a hybrid kit nightmare, since the bits are too small to pin properly.

There is no extra weapons?So I have to have one flamer and one melta?

Pretty sure it comes with one of each.

So ten models and a flamer,a melta and eight pairs of chainswords+pistols?

8 plastic guardians (with shuriken catapults).
Enough METAL pairs of ccw (some swords, some chainswords)/shuriken pistols to do them all this way.
One each of METAL flamer and fusion gun.
Metal helmets with topknots.

Hybrid kit.
Not hard to put together. Sand/file the ball joints lightly (and clean) on the arms before gluing into place. Use a good glue and she'll be apples.

Aww...Only 8 models?

Its another box that GW produced to convince people to not buy anything that has a guardian anywhere in the kit.. IE Guardians, storm guardians or support weapons!

Well the description of the kit has really convinced me to just convert normal Guardians into them

IMHO I nearly bought it but when I saw my mates Ulthwe army with it in though naaaaaaaaah pants!.

I picked up the arms and guns in a bits trade and almost regretted it after the fact. Using a few high, wood, or dark elf weapon arms and heads along with cut-down shuriken catapults works as a great alternative and you can get the fantasy bits pretty easily through bits sites or the dreaded ebay. Mixing and matching thr models helps break things up a bit and gives you more than one squad to work with, too.

I was thinking about space marine combat knives, which comes in the tactical box.And also, cut down shruiken catapults

Combat knives just are not 'eldarish' enough for my tastes. I used the Dire Avenger Exarch weapons, High Elf Noble and Archer swords, Dark Elf Warrior and High Elf Chariotteer heads. I'll see about getting picks put up for you.

I don't play elves, so it is kinda hard for me, and exarch weapons are too rare for my plan of 50 storm guardians
