yeah, Update! I've played my first game! Woot! Check it out here <---
And this weekend I got the final paint on the ScareCrows.
Lead by T1N5 and his mini drone O4 I lifted the Maglock RailRifles up off the robots shoulders to improve their field of vision to the left. The command Scarecrow got an advanced mini drone to carry his Maglock RailRifle.
Scarecrows securing the perimeter while Phobos tried to open a door.
Just the 4 big ones to go! Panic...

yeah,
Thanx guys
I'm a bit under the weather today so didn't start the Hunters :(
So instead messed about with the terrain sprue to pass the time and make some DOOM team objective markers.
So I figured I would find any reason for Doom team to be searching for Key Cards...
Made four - Red Blue Yellow and Green
Next I opted for the Map console and medi pack.
And finally the Soul Sphere...
For Maelstroms edge I need two large objectives. 'Artifacts' that we are trying to protected or destroy!
So I decided to make soul sphere containment units.
So if you were thinking about doing this conversion now is the time! I've bought myself a little stock pile of these Doom heads, so the Doom team is safe for future expansion!
I also bought some of their other excellent heads to add to the Doom team later as specialists These are heads HD.17 - HD.18 - HD.19 Buy them here <---

Command scarecrow with the drone rifle is just plain awesome! The others are a neat idea too are those gun arms done using parts from the model or did you scratch convert them?
Objective markers are looking really great so far! Bumner about pig iron closing, though =/

yeah,
All four gun arms am were made from one set of spare spider legs
Trimmed the top off to keep the round hinge.
And then used pin vice side ways to drill/file a round notch in bottom of the gun
May 13th
With the news that pig iron are closing their doors I bought some heads!
Two day delivery!
40x more doom team helmets!
20x three other styles.
2 are slightly larger blocker and other slightly rounder.
Panic...

I also magnetised the missile options so they can be removed when fired.
Have to check my rulebook, but I seem to remember the Hunter missiles aren't 1-shot only. I dont think you need to remove them after firing. Good idea magnetizing them though! The two missile types are pretty different so it's good to be able to swap them out if you need to.

Interesting, I assumed one shot as you pay +1pt for a missile and can take up to two...
Magnatizing does this allow switching missiles, mixing missiles or taking leaving them off

I question though... will Blu-tac be strong enough to hold the weapon arms in place?
It seems very strong as the fit is very tight.
I've got a few ideas on how to magnetise the arms but in the end it seems like hard work and blu tac is a super easy and effective solution!

I've just spent the morning assembling my Epirians and have to say the robots are becoming my next mini-faction of choice (after an Angel mini-faction).
I've built the Hunters in Ed-209 poses (squat legged, body leant back). I also placed the missile pods on the tops of the shoulders as they fit much better with a little snip here and there.
Will post some pics when internet issues get sorted - but loving what I'm seeing here
