40k.
Good luck with the army.
You have a list in mind? Have you broken it down to build up to, or just going for a full 200 points straight away? Throw it into the Lists forum and we'll drop comments about hot we think it will do.
Post what you have built so far into the Gallery. We wanna see your stuff
Thanks!
At the moment, I'm just buying units for the first 1k points. So far I've got a chaplain Dreadnought which was revoltingly expensive...I got gouged horribly on it (Tyberos and this grant +2S combined) a bunch of tartaros termies (not super competitive and they will probably get tabled before they do anything as I understand it but I love the models so I don't care) a librarian in phobos, a lieutenant, some bikers, and a rhino. Still haven't decided on the bulk of elites and anti-tank/heavy. I'm planning on playing them as white scars and alternately as
RG...probably. Carcharodons almost definitely aren't a white scars successor chapter, they're very likely either Raven Guard or Night Lords related, but they do fight like White Scars. Blitzkrieg and Retreat. They're pretty much a melee force, and White Scars rules fit them well.
I also bought a second-hand Grav captain from Ebay which I'm planning to kitbash and use for Tyberos The Red Wake Lord Reaper of the Void! I think the Forgeworld model is an insult to him and he deserves better. I'm reasonably handy with a dremel, I think I can do it. But
FW will still get their blood fifty bucks because I need his Unique weapons, Hunger & Slake.
