My only wish for Xmas is for some magical stranger come to my house and buy all my models so I can pretend for the remainder of my life that Im over the Codex Creep and GWs constant kick to the nuts for "Evil scum Chaos Players" lol

I already got Betrayal at Calth and a Hellbrute for Sinterklaas (which is inherently superior to Christmas, of course), so I'm not really wishing for anything - a CSM bike squad could be nice, since I don't have any of those yet, but eh, I'm good!

4 Inquisition Crusaders
1 Inquisitor Coteaz
1 Rhino
1 Set of Inquisition Rhino Doors (FW)
1 Inquisition Rhino Back Door (FW)
1 Solomon Lok & Retinue (FW)

Im preparing for deathwatch, can you tell?

(except coteaz, he is just awesome)

Santa Claus (my wife) got me:

-Shadow Force Solaq
-Tactical Squad
-Scout Squad
-Castellan Crowe
-Emperor's Champion
-Palatine Blade Squad
-Land Speeder
-Rhino

Getting them painted is another story...

I want the Retaliation Cadre!

I'm thinking of treating myself to two Stormtalons, to run a stormwing detachment. I have enough in store credit for one. So its almost like buy one get one free!

Take a look at the Raptor Wing formation from the Kauyon book. *I* think it is a better way to run Stormtalons. Auto arrive turn two. Reroll wounds and armor pens. Deliciously potent. Just doesn't come with a Strafing Run Stormraven.

I might treat myself to another Razorback and another Drop Pod so I can run a Battle Demi-Company and 1st Company Task Force and keep it in on points.

I just want more time to paint my doods ive got way too much to still paint I hate having unpainted models on the table.

I'm hoping for the Cadian defense force so I can finish my PDF/Auxillias... that or Venerable dreadnaughts

At least GW's forged the best narrative with us though!

Most neglected army? Aww special snowflake chaos player thinks just cause it's a couple of years since anything new he's so put out, sadface :(. Sisters haven't seen a new sculpt in 20 years. I bought brand new models from gw 2 weeks ago that say 1996 on 'em. 2/3rds of our codex is the same model with slightly different statlines. We don't even get a physical book. Most neglected army my a**

Sisters however, have been a competitive army for a long time.

Whether that is from allies or simple melta spam and overall cheap units, SoB do their job, and they do it well ( I would know, I field them regularly) lol But nice try!

Old models =/= neglect

Out of date rules that make an army neigh unplayable and unfun because of point sinks and redundancies = neglect + eye gouging / climbing clock towers. (Too much?)

Ok ya gitz! tell me what ya want from Kringle!?
: Ohh some more Killa Kans! er some Deff Dredds!~
: We need dem Blitza Bomba's! air support is best support!
: no no no!!! all we need is more BOYZ!
: Dats a great idea! we can kustum goodens them up real good!
:We do need some more Kommandos.....
but we gots 150 boyz already.....maybe some more Bikes and stormboyz?

-Suddenly a squabble begins-

:OI! Dis is da plan! we are asken for Grot Tanks and the Super Grot tank! we got so many of those snot lads around that we might as well get dem ready for a fight and make'm useful!!......and a pet squig of my very own >3>


Have a waaaaghable Orkmas!

3 x Hammerhead Gunships
1 x Retaliation Cadre
1 x Fire Warriors

That's like $445 worth of stuff, though. That's a lot to ask for. Probably need more paint for all that as well.

SG

knowing "Santa's" current financial situation: Forge World money, if not, a leman russ so I can start plinking down goals for my Auxilia.

Special Snowflake Chaos. Sisters have 1 competitive strategy that makes them lower mid tier. Chaos have 1 competitive strategy that makes them lower mid tier, the difference is that Chaos can play fluffy fun things in friendly games, Sisters it's all the same models with different names. ALSO your basic troops aren't 80 bucks for 10 with MANDATORY conversion of METAL for wysiwyg.

As I consider maybe asking a Citadel battle case from gw (as it is cheap and seems to do the work) , I'm curious to know if it is true the foam is abrasive ? I heard this, so until know I was more prone to magnitize my model and put them in a metal case.
