That is true. S6 limit on vehicles is absurd for reactions tbh, especially considering that dreads (which are smaller than tanks) just ignore this... like half the rest of ruleslimitations...

Trying to decide what to build tonight.

Another Contemptor, or a squad, maybe two, of Tactical Support.

Alternate fun and less fun kits, to help prevent burnout slogging through stuff that’s not quite as exciting as you like.

I do quite enjoy building the MkVI marines. But I blitzed 40 at the weekend, and a Contemptor.

Given it a rest tonight as I’m chatting someone up!

With the remaining six aspirants finished, my possessed librarius posse is now up to ten men strong and ready for their first (err, last...?) suicide mission. Click the pictures to see details.








Wondering if bound daemon brute rules would be good for representing these unlucky fellows on the table as they're herded against the enemy lines.

Pratting with bits and wondering (as a newbie to 30k) if something like this will pass off as a Nemesis Bolter.
Going to make a unit of 5. Not sure which slot I'll use. Most likely the Fast Attack slot unit that has 5 WS.


My Painting Blog: http://gimgamgoo.com/
Currently most played: Silent Death, Xenos Rampant, Mars Code Aurora and Battletech.
I tried dabbling with 40k9/10 again and tried AoS3 - disliked both, but I'm enjoying HH2 and trying Battletech Classic and AS out

Cheers.
I'll see how they paint up. The only annoying part is going to be the hip firing models which will look silly with a sniper rifle. I'll have to turn their heads the other way or something so it looks like they're looking somewhere else rather than hip firing.

Is one (or more) of those weapons no longer available/not optimal in 2.0?

no, but sabres are expensive, hence magnetisation is prefered.

They'll chew through your magnet supply pretty quick but are otherwise fairly easy to get fully magnetized up. One for the pintle mount, two for the weapon and 2 for the... what would you call it? Ammo/energy panel?

So for a full weapon set all magnetized up you'll want maybe 21 small magnets or 13 chunkier ones.

Not even sure the panel bit, given it lies flat, will need a magnet or two?
