Hi Dakka,

I'm off to London and have left my codex at home. Was planning on visiting Dark Sphere and picking up a couple of things to round out my Crons

Definitely going to pick up a couple of stalkers, and I haven't got any Destroyers/Heavy Destroyers or Tomb blades. Might also add some more spyders, a deathmarks, warriors.....holy feth I'm going to need another bag!

Need help please, do I pick up the Heavy destroyer conversion kits or not? Also, what is the max unit size for Destroyers/Heavy Destroyers and Tomb Blades?

Gak ... I forgot about my GK. Definitely going to need another bag.

I don't remember about the Tomb Blades, but you can have a unit until 5 Destroyers. 3 of those Destroyers can be upgraded to Hvy Dest. You can have a unit of 3 Hvy Destroyers, no need for Destroyers if you so desire.

I like Hvy Destroyers a lot. the internet tells me they are bad, I love them. It's one of the few 36'' High S, AP2 weapons we have available and being Jump Units gives them a much needed mobility, plus, they have Prefered Enemy (Everything!).

Excellent, thanks, 3 Heavy destroyers it is. That should help free up some space!

Orrrr......Buy the extra box and convert up another Destro lord. Hmmm

Tomb blades can be brought in units of 5

Wish I could go to dark sphere....

Thx. Can't decide whether to get the tomb blades - how do they compare to Heavy destroyers?

Why do you want to go to dark sphere? I'm sure you have huge choices for stores in the US?

That's a good idea. And never, ever, order the GW kit. I learnt it the hard way

At least that got me into kit-bashing my own D.Lord into existence:

Nice, I kitbashed my current destrolord, but gave mine an orb. Where did you get the right arm from?

It's one of the arms from the old metal Tomb Spyders

My FLGS has a small community (it has started to grow recently) and not much selection when it comes to products so I would like to see what a real FLGS looks like

(I go to legion games in Minnesota if you were wondering)

As for tomb blades over destroyera its really your choice of either fast moving jetbikes that run best with 5 s6 small blasts or jump infantry with PE and ap3 weapons
