<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Maybe not...</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'd been staring at a block of Black Epoxy resin which I'd initially bought when looking at bulk options for sculpting, and realised I'd never get round to using it for its purpose. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWsKw0KJexerOwNJ9QLEE3O5ChYNKVtf1IaRW0vHMa0tFSMbDvT4RrsPwWpyZJjZ6-4xyR7UkNB3uGAXHkxSg3-2XOkhZgbHwuZTcSF3s8Eereffa_J6ps_-mzumJ-mn27yz0F6gycFb-r/s1600/20200216_094136.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWsKw0KJexerOwNJ9QLEE3O5ChYNKVtf1IaRW0vHMa0tFSMbDvT4RrsPwWpyZJjZ6-4xyR7UkNB3uGAXHkxSg3-2XOkhZgbHwuZTcSF3s8Eereffa_J6ps_-mzumJ-mn27yz0F6gycFb-r/s640/20200216_094136.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So with some time on my hands I made a few different mushroom shapes. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Yzfnr-wA_DY/XrwQXidxWvI/AAAAAAABMbU/hdV0vzSvHqAvPVlMVPEBTZT0Vm2YeFevwCPcBGAsYHg/s1600/20200215_201450.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Yzfnr-wA_DY/XrwQXidxWvI/AAAAAAABMbU/hdV0vzSvHqAvPVlMVPEBTZT0Vm2YeFevwCPcBGAsYHg/s640/20200215_201450.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Started with some nice button ones, nothing weird there. <b>Blood blots</b> lets call them. (Simple tube of resin, and then an indent made into a ball with a rounded tool </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then some spikey bits, <b>Dead Cones</b> sounds good. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Some wide Frog inspired ones too, <b>Spotcap Forest.</b> (Remember to really define the edges of the mushrooms and align them up to the sky/roof, look at real pictures to get a good effect)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Finally, some rusty ones. <b>Rust fungus</b>. Sure. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nice couple of coats of Ardcoat' over these to give a glossy look too.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-viNOtE_UA7U/XrwQcQ-x-TI/AAAAAAABMbY/2oC3mpDDw6ovTTSDvYbmz5NXXrIORTpXQCPcBGAsYHg/s1600/20200218_233005.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="918" data-original-width="1600" height="366" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-viNOtE_UA7U/XrwQcQ-x-TI/AAAAAAABMbY/2oC3mpDDw6ovTTSDvYbmz5NXXrIORTpXQCPcBGAsYHg/s640/20200218_233005.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tried sculpting these as quick and dirty as I could, as I mixed the entire batch of resin, and had a lot curing quickly. But in reality, the finger marks etc seem to work quite well, and the squished natural shapes will do fine. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Specifically bought some grass for this, and tried to make the colours of the rust and blood marry up. I would like to spend a bit more time harmonising the colours with the rest of the terrain, so will do some more of these and then do a load more.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mixed these with some existing scenery for some longevity as these are fairly fragile too.</span></div>

Speed painting with contrast<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Just a little video for anyone not sure of whether Contrasts are worth it. I have a friend called...Bames, who is wary of painting. Contrasts are great paints, and will easily help anyone get through their stack of scary looking models at speeeeeeeed.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These were using up of leftovers (and one very intentional sculpt for the Nautician) and were a nice break between some painting. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So one thing I was lacking was some rust, some decent chemical spills, and black oils etc. But that is coming later when some other projects are a bit more finished.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So here is the test panel in line with the larger board, with some snaps for the stages. and the finished product.</span><br />

Necromunda bulk scenery painting method<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Again, no apologies for the title, catch-ups are hard. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, had a load of Necromunda scenery to paint, so out comes the batch painting assembly line! Apart from needing a decent space to get this done, you can give it a good enough look. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Its busy enough to break the board up nicely.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My method for this lot is...</span><br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Spray black (cheap primer if poss)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dry brush Leadbelcher over everything</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dry brush tops with Stormhost silver, </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Base bronze's dark brown (Mournfang?)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Fairly dilute Gehenna's gold on Bronzes</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Paint elements of wiring/switches/dials/screens with Reds/Greens/Blues</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wash certain elements of metals with different tones (blues/purples) (this one was an Army painter metallic metal which I liked.</span><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s8q6hpCILJM/Xo2iqS1-MrI/AAAAAAABLcc/UB9oGAC_9dsHV67d1301kuiQGItLONTlQCKgBGAsYHg/s1600/20200120_194152.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="778" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s8q6hpCILJM/Xo2iqS1-MrI/AAAAAAABLcc/UB9oGAC_9dsHV67d1301kuiQGItLONTlQCKgBGAsYHg/s640/20200120_194152.jpg" width="310" /></span></a></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Paint hazard stripes on, don't beat yourself up for not perfecting these, they will be washed and weathered with the yellow of the stripes anyway</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sponge dab the whole thing for rust effects Slayer orange mix (emphasising the bases of the pieces)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cover the entire piece with liberal but light Burnt umber Oil wash, go twice if needed.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Go back over with heavier oil wash mix for heavier run-off areas</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wash bronzes with Nihilakh Oxides.</span></li>
</ol>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was intending to do a load more greens to represent some real run-off and effluents etc, but realised i'd like to use for some other projects down the line so resisted for now.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Started on a 30k Daemons army! Gotta love some of those models and if 40k comes back to a good place it will serve me well. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wanted a hybrid look to them, Chaos goodness being undivided as it was at the time, there was seemingly less segregation between the big 4, so less Red/Pink/Blue/Green racism basically.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These guys will all be Slaanesh Daemons with some Khornate features (my favourite two Chaos gods). Plus it means I get to use Samus!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ridiculously cheap compared to some of the FW stuff. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also managed to get my hands on a start collecting set, and made a load of cavalry, not immediately my favourite unit choice, but still pretty decent padding and fast moving as well.</span><br />
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/--b2BVmYIyss/Xo2Z3w4FUWI/AAAAAAABLbs/TLnmPBOrxHgOSx_M_7uI_CgynzSFdhFNACKgBGAsYHg/s1600/IMG-20200118-WA0001.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="900" data-original-width="1600" height="360" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/--b2BVmYIyss/Xo2Z3w4FUWI/AAAAAAABLbs/TLnmPBOrxHgOSx_M_7uI_CgynzSFdhFNACKgBGAsYHg/s640/IMG-20200118-WA0001.jpeg" width="640" /></span></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then so that I could stretch the thin budget, I converted an old Helbrute model and some bits into this Daemon thing. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For Daemons he'll likely count as a behemoth daemon (the 10 wound one) and for Word Bearers a Mhara'ghal dreadnought too!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Finally, the completed scheme on one of the Beasts. I'm intending to have less purple on the rest of the finished items, and the black graduation will be more pronounced too.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Batch painted a load of these guys for a big game and they were pretty devastating tbh. Run the Chaos undivided Dominion, with basic shred+rending upgrades on most daemons. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also bought a box of the Undead Corpse Counts flyers, as a cheap way to get some wings! Got some old Daemon heads and will be converting them further (more sexy obvs)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As it stands, these guys will act as a bit of a support force, as the playstyle is really simple, but fairly boring because of that for me and the opponent. (i.e. drop in peoples faces, charge)</span>Mark Grudgingshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11001513847407116361noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2886884149916118609.post-87122738768118610562019-08-07T11:00:00.000+01:002019-08-07T22:11:22.902+01:00Necromunda Ambot Cargo-lugger, Contrast 30k Word Bearers, Mortalis games (Weekly Progress)<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So this lovely beauty is due to trek through the underhive, bringing supplies to where it is most needed!</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-e_yRL4VenbI/XUs9CG82OWI/AAAAAAABDa8/JKWnctSP5D8wue6ZYxsg_R6pbo2piaLYACLcBGAs/s1600/20190807_080758.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1556" data-original-width="1465" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-e_yRL4VenbI/XUs9CG82OWI/AAAAAAABDa8/JKWnctSP5D8wue6ZYxsg_R6pbo2piaLYACLcBGAs/s640/20190807_080758.jpg" width="602" /></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love the hodepodge nature of Necromunda, which again is something you don't get in the very ordered 40 and 30k battlefields.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So I simply joined the legs with a bit of sprue, and then started stacking! I've accrued a fair amount of stuff over the years which I look at and go 'i'll use that later' and never do. Finally i got to put it all to some good use!</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-az4hfEaIfsg/XUs9IfoWlVI/AAAAAAABDbA/h9Rvvk_cjakWp8sPl3XfzYs_5kkNtWl6QCLcBGAs/s1600/20190807_080816.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1561" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-az4hfEaIfsg/XUs9IfoWlVI/AAAAAAABDbA/h9Rvvk_cjakWp8sPl3XfzYs_5kkNtWl6QCLcBGAs/s640/20190807_080816.jpg" width="624" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Plenty of leftover bags, containers and cannisters. The only thing i tried to do was to tie this to the Squat venator gang, so the 'head' of this lovely beauty and its legs will likely be painted with extremely scratched versions of the paintscheme on them.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Stubber on top in case I want to play him in the Caravan mission.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then onto the Word Bearers, my next Heresy force. This paint scheme was one I saw on Duncan Rhodes twitter and thought it worth trying out. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is his</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This came after some fairly poor testing with just some basic contrast paints. Even with some other washes, it still didnt look right. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The recipe is lovely and simple. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">- Base Spray Leadbelcher.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">- Wash Basilicum Grey (the contrast version of Nuln oil) all over.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">- Paint with Flesh tearers Red. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thats it, that in itself gives a nice effect, one that I will happily leave on the model. I want it to look almost like this. Bit more weathering needed, but dark and shiny.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HbQ8Nib9Npk/XUs9q9D0gFI/AAAAAAABDbc/6SA6MwjV4focM1cXaLEUc7-1frUYs5BDQCLcBGAs/s1600/98e00ac94b15fabfe99549e6a0079cb7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="381" data-original-width="640" height="237" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HbQ8Nib9Npk/XUs9q9D0gFI/AAAAAAABDbc/6SA6MwjV4focM1cXaLEUc7-1frUYs5BDQCLcBGAs/s400/98e00ac94b15fabfe99549e6a0079cb7.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I did then touch it up with some extra highlights. Now need to decide on my approach to decals, and then weathering over the top too. Proof of concept was there so that I can do a load of these guys in bulk to have them to base standard at least. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also based some fiends to start my Daemons army off (always wanted one) Never had to use so much liquid green stuff ever!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Finally, managed to get a lovely game against my friend Darien on his lovely mortalis table at our local gaming club. I'm all for a challenge but this was just a bit of a nightmare! Terror squads are not your friend, 3 Contemptors and 2 Box Dreads against a leviathan and 2 Contemptors should have been easier than it was as well!</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The general basis of the paint scheme was this photo I found
online, which I really loved the look of, as it was completely different from
the majority of my much warmer coloured gangs. I learned a lot painting my
Escher so wanted to try out the metallic look elsewhere. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

As always, extra bullsh*t is always good, add depth and complexity to each game system you enjoy. Custom weapons in Necromunda Underhive is no exception.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This is my guns'n'ammo roster, would love feedback. If you want me to share them with you, add me as a friend in Yaktribe and you can use them too!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So lets start with what I was aiming for with each.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>- Minimal
changes to weapons already owned and in-use</b></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>-
Provide genuine differences to the options available<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>- Higher
cost and rarity generally, but also with some low-cost options to introduce
some early complexity</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Some justification for some
of these weird profiles. I’m totally a fan of using the stats available to
melee weapons, within ranged ones. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hAVKkcbtJeM/W4j8vYKR3VI/AAAAAAAA3ts/8VUCyvwAOI8lN9UFInI3Lk8Mfia8mWbVACPcBGAYYCw/s1600/99550599008_GoliathWeaponsSetOne01.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="620" data-original-width="600" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hAVKkcbtJeM/W4j8vYKR3VI/AAAAAAAA3ts/8VUCyvwAOI8lN9UFInI3Lk8Mfia8mWbVACPcBGAYYCw/s400/99550599008_GoliathWeaponsSetOne01.jpg" width="386" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Ammo dice</b> - We assume that a
power sword’s power cell isn’t going to run out but a Plasma guns always is?
Check it!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Fixed strength values </b>– some times melee weapons are not going to be
amazing, Whips? Is that likely to kill you regardless of who plays with it? No.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Ranged VS Melee Traits</b>- why cant
you put some ranged traits on a melee weapon, Melta is a bitching one, if you
fail your armour check, Vice versa, you get knifed with a mega-poison and have
to take three injury dice? I think that works fine as its supposed to be a damn
poison weapon!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>AP values</b> – having the maul
with a positive modifier to armour is a great option, so I wanted that to be
reflected in the rest of the roster.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So – onto the roster.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<h3>
<o:p><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span></o:p><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ammo types</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So
firstly, the easy wins were the new ammo’s and mechanisms for all of the
existing weapons.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<o:p><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span></o:p><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Explosive rounds for auto weapons</b>,
I was going to add the Dan Abnett Eisenhorn Tronvasse types (and still might)
but wanted a mid-point between autopistols and bolters. High likelihood to run out, but tricksy at
short range,</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Tranquilizer ammo</b>, this came
from Venator-based inspiration, and the associated short range of the needle
rifle to make it longer, and need to actually capture some people! Web is
nasty, but at range not quite as bad, as you can be supported.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Flamer ‘Gels’, </b>inspired by
the relatively underused flamer vs incendiary grenades. Acid gel’s intent was
much more a ‘crap crap crap I’m covered in acid’, and the Chem Gel was more for
area based defence, with some good reliability in case it doesn’t get used.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I was tempted to add a
torrent rule in here, and maybe only make it a S2 weapon, but the problem is
based more on pinning<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Hallucinogenic
gas</b> – one to make sneak attacks all kinds of fun, run and freak out, and then
be blind<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Melta
missile</b> – This was just to mirror some of the stuff seen in-game, a one shot
ranged melta boom of doom! Pricey and stupid.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<h3>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">New weapons </span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">These were the new ones that seemed to fit the gangs fairly well!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SaS8HR7twOg/XOJ63afThnI/AAAAAAAA9_Q/VWE-Iy2T0PUax5wQInnP-HkBJ2Q5IRnsACLcBGAs/s1600/2.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="237" data-original-width="810" height="187" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SaS8HR7twOg/XOJ63afThnI/AAAAAAAA9_Q/VWE-Iy2T0PUax5wQInnP-HkBJ2Q5IRnsACLcBGAs/s640/2.PNG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
<b style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Stilletto knife - Caryatid Toxin</b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">, with the new
rules in play for toxin (but the knife getting worse based on the removal of
hit benefits and ap minuses), I wanted a badass version of the Toxin blade to
make it really nasty, hence Melta. Its only AP-1, but does have a thrown
profile as well if you want to throw things away.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Slave goad</b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">, so I had the
actual weapon as part of the chaos renegade enforcers and thought it would be
too good to miss out on actually using. As a melee weapon, I didn’t want it to
be too fancy, however, I figured its got a charge, if it runs out it loses its profile
(not mentioned but implied).</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Whip</b>, I mean it’s a standard
whip, I figured even a cheap versatile weapon could actually be of benefit.
Didn’t want to give anything more fancy really. Fixed strength too.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Shiv</b>, this was the original
badboy that started this all off, I wanted to start a custom campaign, and
wanted some real base-level weapons which could be of super minor use. Shiv was
the obvious one. Ap-1 melee attack, but again, at fixed strength<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>One shot</b>, (the above should show 'one use') but I love the idea of
a loaded hold-out with some serious OOMPH as a S5, but then wanted the power
not to impact someones chance to save against it. I see this as a ledge-winner 😊<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Duelling Laspistol </b>– The
Escher laspistols are beautiful, and I wanted that reflected in something that
may be actually fairly powerful. Extra range, standard Las decent short
range…range and a bit of AP-1 to add some funk. Shouldn’t make this too pricey.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Helmawr Pattern Blunderbuss </b>–
I’m sure this is coming, but I wanted to get ahead of things. Short range, but
random strength means this could be fun. High chance of it running out of ammo
as well, and positive armour save to reflect the fact that it’s a bucket of
gravel.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<h3>
<o:p><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Wargear</span></o:p></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I want
to also look at additional wargear for the gangs too, so will be looking at

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So these boys were a much-needed enhancement to my Goliath gangs, in one campaign I’ve been flooded with a bunch of Juves while my main gangs dies, in the other campaign I’m pushing 3600+ cred value, and have a hard time spending all that cash...so I bought more</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These guys should massively help me however, because of magnets.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While the rest of my gang lament their static poses and loadout, these boys have now got options. Magnetising these joints was</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A)<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>A pain</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">C)<span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Totally worth it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I magnetised a couple of Guard boys, and a couple of marines, and never found myself using anything but the best options, so the rest stayed stuck in the bag. With these boys I’m at least going to get some use out of them as I’ll probably start another campaign soon enough!</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A couple of these are magnetised further at the hilt, to allow for future-proofing if GW releases more crazy options.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The magnets are strong enough so that I can squish them down into their carrying foam and their arms not ping off randomly. Meaning transportation isn’t much of an issue.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Baul suggested a Druchi Violet in between the Agrax and the Reikland. So I gave it a try on a single panel (bottom right)</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4GkD2ANNjzU/XKWt9eglGiI/AAAAAAAA8gA/sclJZwqNUZcZldBoGGhHPle_xV4ECC6pACKgBGAs/s1600/20190313_214253.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="778" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4GkD2ANNjzU/XKWt9eglGiI/AAAAAAAA8gA/sclJZwqNUZcZldBoGGhHPle_xV4ECC6pACKgBGAs/s640/20190313_214253.jpg" width="310" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I must admit, I love the richness of the red, very deep and as he pointed out, very Blood Angels. That panel does look deeeeeep.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Will be remembering this colour for my Word Bearers, for the gang however it was slightly too dark, so as an exercise I’m glad I tried it but I left it as a panel option.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We played 4k. and thankfully my opponent was gracious enough not to bring a sea of dangerous vehicles, just 50+ toughness 5 bodies and a couple of dreadnoughts...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Deployment wasn't ideal for thinning the horde as we played flat to flat side, so I really pushed my guys to the very back of the board, to get as much denuding fire as possible before they got into base to base.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I did try and theme the army to be a bit more 'killy' than normal. I added a Praevian with three Castellax, brought out my (unpainted) destroyers. Added all my Justaerin and Contemptors.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">However,
I love a horde army so went horde, three massive 15 man Tactical
Squads, an assault squad with librarian, apothecaries and a tooled up
Tartarus Terminator command squad. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It did
not go well. The plan to keep them at arms length worked for around 2-3 turns
of shooting, but with so many bodies, and not enough template S10 etc the whole
game was just a delaying tactic till they reached the endzone.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The
death star vs Death star fight was laughable, 4 Tartarus Termies did charge and
didn’t last longer than a phase against Ixion Hale + Jenetia Krole and some
Hetaeron guard. My Praetor did last a phase longer, but the follow-up attacks
weren’t sufficient. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I was
woefully under gunned in the AP2 stakes, in reality across 4000 points I had 8
ranged heavy weapons of any power.2 Darkfire cannons and 2 Multimeltas’ on the
Castellax, 3 Combi-melta’s and a Multimelta on the Justaerin, and 2 Lascannons
on the Land Raider.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For
antipersonnel weight of fire, I did rely on Bolters and those did my fairly
proud, managing to get a Fury of the Legions off at half range twice. 10
Volkite Culverins may wound on 2’s against Justaerin, but 3’s against Custodes
just isn’t enough. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My
misreading of the fleshbane Destroyer Rad missile meant I positioned them well,
but only managed to reduce a SINGLE Custodes toughness…<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">All in
all, there wasn’t enough of a dent made when they hit the front lines, and they
hurt. Overall victory was closer than I’d thought, but still a win for
Custodes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Next
time, I’d love to try some Mechanicum combat with these boys, and see how that
goes instead. More AP2 and maybe some Veterans to try and even the score.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I did
get to use the big terrain, which was fun. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Also
this week, I assembled a couple of bits of Necromunda terrain, namely the
Dildo-drill, and a third party 3d printed jobby.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">This is
something I’ve not seen in Necromunda much, a lift. Now everyone loves
climbing, but GW are really missing out on not adding a tower, or something to
deal with verticality. I love Clamber as a skill, but otherwise it takes an
entire turn for a movement 5 ganger to get up any Sector Mechanicus without a
ladder.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This should alleviate that. The idea will be to
have this raised to standard height, as well as maxed to the full range so the distance can be much greater.
Assembling this stuff was very easy, and glue took to it well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Not so sure about paint but we'll see. One thing that was considered is that this was the same height as the rest of the terrain, which was a definite help. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Can link where this was picked up if needed.</span><br />

started using Battlescribe, as I was used to the format and function within

great tool is that you assign a gang to a campaign, and manage it as well. Add
territories to a campaign ‘pool’ of territories for dominion and make a decent
hex-grid to see the spread of things. You can see these represented in your
Territories tab, and summary rules for Boons too.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

each of the Battlescribe lists can have small foibles, for quite some time

when the game is done and the hour is late you probably forget, or can’t do

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Painting this guy was fairly easy, and I didn’t nearly apply as much attention as I should have (plus the camera washes everything out)</span><br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Started with a layer of Caliban Green, then adding progressively more Averland Sunset I progressively drybrushed up the highlighted areas. As he was looking very saturated and classic Crocodile colour I then wanted to dull him back to something paler, so washed him completely with a Caliban Green wash again, and then went over the drybrush again with a touch more Ceramite White rather than yellow.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I actually remembered to do his mouth first, and I must say I really like his teeth and gums. Starting with Ushtabi on the teeth I then washed them with Druchi Violet around their gums and mouth as well before a wash of Pink once it had dried. Finally I highlighted the teeth with pure Ceramite White. I think it looks nice and organic!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I did debate whether to go over the belly region as that’s often the lighter area with reptiles in 40k/AOS but didn’t want to in the end.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Statwise he’s close to a Goliath champion. He’s slower with only Move 3”, but WS 3+, T4, S4, unfortunately Initiative 6+, 2 attacks, 5+ armour (all round) with a decent AP-1 + Rending weapon</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I didn’t realise that Krocka can be fairly independent as well, outside of 3 inches it needs to pass a cool check or run back to the boss man, well this thing is cool 6+ so shouldn’t fail too many of those. Great for corralling the enemy into the bosses arms!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Looking forward to pairing him and the main man up on some missions.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Games played</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Speaking of missions…Necromunda has some fantastic missions and scenarios. So we’ve been making conscious attempts to try all of the scenarios available to us, rather than sticking to just those which the campaign chart recommend.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This works fairly well, as a fair amount of the games which we should (according to the rules in the books) would be picked, and then dominated by the leading gang, which doesn’t make for great games (everyone would always play ambush surely?).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Our way, we alternate picking fun scenarios, if it’s an attacker + defender we then flip a coin.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Recently, great fun had with the Prison escape mission. 3 plucky Orlocks against the many Cultists. With a fairly hard scenario as it was, my opponent performed fairly well, waiting out the random movement of the sentries to pounce on the one that ventured too near to the cell door!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Sadly, one lucky roll and all them thar reinforcements start coming onto the table, whereas each ganger <b>can </b>get a code or a weapon from an enemy they take down, codes are not helpful when the alarm is going off! (That rule should be a ‘pick between a weapon or a code’.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Victory Chaos cults!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Moot!</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Next up we played Gang moot with all 4 leaders. With our campaign we each have 2 gangs in the running, so had to randomise the focus in game as otherwise it would be a big 2vs2 game rather than free for all. We played it so that 1-2 you had to target your other gang, 3-4 you target enemy Gang 1, 5-6 Enemy Gang 2 ( with caveats if you’re within 3 inches of an enemy/engaged etc).</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This works pretty well, as it matches the chaos in the scenario itself, and makes for some fun randomised moments, the Escher leader managed to take out all three leaders, (including my opponents own-controlled Orlock champion) and get away scot-free.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">After the leaders disappeared thanks to the Escher, no one was able to directly alert their fighters. The rest of the gangs generally moved towards the centre of the board to try and notice the loss of their leader. As one of the closer and smarter gangs (as its based on intelligence check) the Orlocks ran first, having brought a smaller crew anyway. Therefore the first time that a ganger made it into range of the enemy, he notified his buddies and fled.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Chaos cults didn’t have much force on the board with the random selection, so after a turn of speculative shooting to knock out a couple of targets, they legged it too.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My Goliath were fairly slow and plodding to react and were the last to flee the field battle. Victory Escher!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Escher</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I managed to get these ladies on the field as well, so first game with an Escher force was interesting. Turns out standing them clumped for an infiltrating Delaque was not smart.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Armiger Helverins</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Happily later in the week the rules for the Armigers in Heresy dropped, finally a nice way to be able to use some of these lovely models. I’m still behind on all of my painting, but having a couple of these boys supporting the larger Thrall-knight will be nice.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The rules for these guys are fairly decent, but I would struggle to pick between the Sunder-auto-cannons, or the Melta. Mechanicum do suffer from decent ranged anti-tank and the auto-cannons may be the safer choice for long range smackdown. Pricey for that cost however so will see how the model works best.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I can also see some fairly reasonable proxies using the Secutarii Strider vehicles from 40k, potentially with some covered cockpits etc. Hmmm, maybe.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Have been getting heavy into Necromunda Underhive, and in the last three weeks have probably played 6-8 games, so I needed to jump but back in the painting seat to get stuff closed off. First up, this little pet.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This was a fairly easy build as I had some leftover bits from my last spawn's which I'd made. The chest and the arms were padded with some greenstuff to give the impression of simian-like motion. the 'foot' was the underhive Horror/sewer monster that came in the kit. I couldn't take it seriously without seeing</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A) Futurama sewer mutants</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">B) The Day of the tentacle</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">C) the beautifully unmarked skin of something that basically lives in acidic goo?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So I had to mix him up, I added a couple of colour variations, used a fair amount of drybrushing for texture, and a few washes and purples.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I even tried a little bit of faint mottling/skin markings.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Regardless, this beauty really needs some tweaking rules wise. This one has rubbish stats, but still can only be taken out of action by rolling the equivalent of a 6 to wound (i.e. out of action).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He also doesn't run away if he gets shot dead (we still rolled on serious injuries however), as he only technically disappears if he's not dead in the game, and you then fail to restrain him. Nice way to tie up some faces.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next up is my new Goliath Ganger, and new Chaos Cult champion.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I always wanted the Cults to have an eclectic mix from across the hive, and I really wanted to use the 2 handed axe for the Goliath (+2 strength and 2 damage) as its pretty cheap and themey, this therefore seemed like a good idea. First campaign buffs he'll be getting will be to up him to his actual Goliath Statline, which should take a good bunch of XP as Strength and Toughness are right at the top end of the advancements table!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Shame about my brush control over fleshy areas...lets assume I was rushing...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The paint scheme is the standard Goliath one, with the concession of the Cults spot colour (the Jade blue) on his facemask as a tie in.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">His arms aren't glued, so he can use some of the newly magnetised Goliaths I've been hacking together.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Speaking of which, never lose your scalpel! I needed to get these guys done, but wish I'd thought of things slightly earlier, as there were a number of issues in using a rubbish craft knife.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Generally however, I like how these look. The majority of the joins will be hidden under all of the shoulder-pads that I WILL be adding, honest. The heads I've left off until the new Goliath sets I ordered have arrived, where I may even magnetise a couple too, so that I can switch the Gang on the fly.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Speaking of which, I got this in the mail, on the day that I received the wrong set for pre-order.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Good old GW/FW people, this genuinely made my day. If they had supplied an envelope I may have posted them back.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">May still do that for some self-karma, I have the box and everything...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As well as the Goliath reinforcement I also came up lucky in some campaign rolls, and managed to reinforce my gang with 2 Helot cultists with bolters. This gun is the nuts, and I was only too happy to ensure my guys were reinforced. Both of these obviously look better in person, but sadly my hyper advanced phone must have moved some of my careful brush strokes to look like I may have rushed them slightly,</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also painted one of the 2 familiars in the gang with a fair amount of washes and drybrushes. It'll break off that base when I drop it, guaranteed!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I committed to safe transport, so see here all my Necromunda people assembled together.</span><br />

<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So why did I do things differently this time?</span></span><br />
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Rust colours on - check</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hairspray on - check</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Salt On - check</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Basecoated silver - check</span><br />
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-84vOPnCLbVc/XBn_h0aTilI/AAAAAAAA6NM/PI8zYdyQmYc-ioXTSA7B2M9LSj-xJJEVwCKgBGAs/s1600/20181209_182910.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="778" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-84vOPnCLbVc/XBn_h0aTilI/AAAAAAAA6NM/PI8zYdyQmYc-ioXTSA7B2M9LSj-xJJEVwCKgBGAs/s640/20181209_182910.jpg" width="310" /></span></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then (I think the step I should have skipped) I primed the model. I read that this protects the basecoat well enough that when you use the hot water, you don't risk losing all the basecoat as well...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well this is it now, will have to rescue it somehow (i.e. lots more weathering!)</span><br />

</div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, this weeks focus has been shared a bit more evenly between my game systems, but primarily on Necromunda. This week, we tried the Convoy scenario....</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vjpQd57GKM4/XBIVuqFyi7I/AAAAAAAA58g/4qqH3SAzu0cBppraUoOxuifJPj9oSNX9gCPcBGAYYCw/s1600/20181121_190300.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vjpQd57GKM4/XBIVuqFyi7I/AAAAAAAA58g/4qqH3SAzu0cBppraUoOxuifJPj9oSNX9gCPcBGAYYCw/s640/20181121_190300.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Setup for this was the most fun. Making that ambush alleyway through the Underhive was genuinely one of the most fun things I've done</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The
ability to make this a completely focused board gave me a headache, but was
great fun at the same time. Half of the stuff I own is Mortalis, with big
chunky blocks on either side of the tile. These are a little bit too harsh to
play this scenario on, as parking everyone round the corner from an arriving
caravan won’t make for a great scenario (may still have to play that one
however).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p><a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-aqjcwDxYojE/XBIVuv3u2oI/AAAAAAAA56c/zh5QvcNKcqAdMLU_2rsdYNbsJZrtjJNNQCKgBGAs/s1600/20181121_190322.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-aqjcwDxYojE/XBIVuv3u2oI/AAAAAAAA56c/zh5QvcNKcqAdMLU_2rsdYNbsJZrtjJNNQCKgBGAs/s640/20181121_190322.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So I used
my open tiles to make the caravans approach be as tricky as possible to sneak
up on. This way, the defenders could target people crossing to the caravan, and
they themselves had room to manoeuvre. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I used a
pretty short pathway for caravan to traverse, with only a slight deviation from
a straight line to ensure that the scenario felt like a traversal, rather than
an ambush. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p><a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OHSqIKhDngc/XBIVuia5YsI/AAAAAAAA56c/yYTEzngx8kE52Z4Fdla7vao4h7sRxE9RwCKgBGAs/s1600/20181121_190304.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OHSqIKhDngc/XBIVuia5YsI/AAAAAAAA56c/yYTEzngx8kE52Z4Fdla7vao4h7sRxE9RwCKgBGAs/s640/20181121_190304.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then to
the high stuff. The main thing I picture with convoy heists is a good old
canyon! (think Indiana Jones etc)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiEaWb4M4tZopDU6CACiJz2RvFCAMafESqhLk1xibPGTgkv8IAE0-GucrmvvuJX5ws5QQp4qIs8JQKAJsd13a-KKreijAvVZwquphk9HIYt3UHWXpq1kM08q125Z8M_6ABcZYP80Jfk9LD/s1600/20181121_190310.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiEaWb4M4tZopDU6CACiJz2RvFCAMafESqhLk1xibPGTgkv8IAE0-GucrmvvuJX5ws5QQp4qIs8JQKAJsd13a-KKreijAvVZwquphk9HIYt3UHWXpq1kM08q125Z8M_6ABcZYP80Jfk9LD/s640/20181121_190310.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Therefore,
I needed some good height to get some gunfire down on the caravan, but also
wanted it to be high enough so that the attackers only had a couple of easy ‘jumping
on’ points.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To that
end, I made sure there were only 2-3 places where the attackers could jump on
from on-high. Otherwise it would all be ground assaults!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The
board was good, and I even played 2 games over the board before we did the
convoy mission as well! The central bridge was a very dangerous place to be.
But control that, and you’ve got open angles to everything else.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I wanted
to make sure I was fairly balanced, the players in the campaign are a fairly
easy going bunch, and we take the rules lightly when it comes to deciding which
scenarios we play. With that in mind we generally play the scenario we want,
and randomise the attackers/defenders if there are any. When one of us starts
to excel, the other gets to be the side with the benefit. At this point both
gangs were fairly evenly split. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, to
the mission then. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I used
the Mechanicus crawler model, and the containers. Lovely models and fitting for
this scenario. I would love to have some better Necromunda vehicles and a
proper ‘cab’ unit for the tractor, but this will do.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Before
the scenario started we also agreed to put a decent amount of cover on the unit
itself, and a pintle mounted heavy stubber, which wouldn’t suffer the unwieldy trait,
we used a random bit of metal found on my garage floor to represent that!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, board
was set, objective was planned. Combatants were my Cults vs Van Saar team of
around 150-25 points lower difference.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We
rolled off. I think I secretly wanted to be the descending attackers, and the
Van Saar with low mobility and agility would be better defending? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Such is
luck and I WAS the attacker. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The scenario
deployment was a bit trickier for the attacker, whereby all models have to be
deployed 6inches from any board edge other than that picked by the Caravan.
This meant with the horde of boys I had (13 and one Chaos familiar) were able
to surround the caravan on all sides with the intent to take out the escort and
hop on board at the end. I therefore added a couple of boys near the terminus
of the caravans path to ensure that happened. Turns out that was a very good
idea!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The game
went heavily in my favour fairly early by interrupting and/or pinning the
majority of the big guns in the Van Saar gang. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sadly
for the Van Saar they couldn’t bottle as per the scenario rules so had to tough
it out. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Great shooting
all round from my guys meant that the Van Saar were quite unfairly hammered.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now onto
the looting, and this is biggie. GET ON THE CARAVAN ASAP!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QQJaq-UAzLU/XBIVutwA8lI/AAAAAAAA56c/ImIWpN-hgBcQF9qrA7offHRoPN57MpvwgCKgBGAs/s1600/20181122_072835.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QQJaq-UAzLU/XBIVutwA8lI/AAAAAAAA56c/ImIWpN-hgBcQF9qrA7offHRoPN57MpvwgCKgBGAs/s640/20181122_072835.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Looting
the caravan is a simple action, and you get one counter. There is no limit to
the number of counters looted, and you don’t need to get the loot off the
board. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">However,
its bloody hard to keep up with the caravan unless you intercept it. 6 inches
of movement means you’ll need to close on it fast, as 6 inches is often more
than a single gangers move. Because the caravan moves before everything else,
and it’s a single action to climb on, you don’t want to end your move near its
rear edge as you’ll not catch it in a single move.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You’ll need
to be in a position in its middle or front, to move up and hop on
appropriately. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once you’re
on the caravan you can focus on looting. There’s no winners/losers for this
scenario, just a cash amount for all. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So I ‘only’
made around 200 credits from this scenario, but this could have been far higher
had I focused on the money rather than the mosh-up.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The next
scenario I’ve tried was the Archaeo Hunters mission. This one was a fairly easy
one to setup, and the use of an Iron Circle model as the automata was very
cool.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This
game was Escher vs the Cults again with Vault point in the centre of one long
edge, and the automata nestled in the centre of the board.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qFp5RLSYygM/XBir-osNK0I/AAAAAAAA6K8/h9MxO4WZFdYcosJHqSZDMzJ0otHYL370wCLcBGAs/s1600/300px-IronCircleMini.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="268" data-original-width="300" height="357" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qFp5RLSYygM/XBir-osNK0I/AAAAAAAA6K8/h9MxO4WZFdYcosJHqSZDMzJ0otHYL370wCLcBGAs/s400/300px-IronCircleMini.jpg" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was worried
about this one, my gang had a few upgrades but were fairly beaten up. Low
intelligence meant that I would struggle to control the automata, and the
Escher had the same and better movement than I did.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thankfully,
infiltrate won me the day. Snuck my Disciple up on the bot and they clicked the
automata on as I won priority (still took 2 intelligence rolls…). With her
purpose done, she got torn apart by the incoming Escher, but I managed to move
the automata slightly closer to my incoming cults. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hNZe3YfRrmE/XBisthOxs8I/AAAAAAAA6LE/FBVbH6tHLnQFq6OmIdSFiTy2Lru8YUkgQCKgBGAs/s1600/20180801_201426.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="308" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hNZe3YfRrmE/XBisthOxs8I/AAAAAAAA6LE/FBVbH6tHLnQFq6OmIdSFiTy2Lru8YUkgQCKgBGAs/s640/20180801_201426.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From
there, the Escher did a lot of hurt and without bodies I was fading fast. Luckily
near the end of the game my enemy failed a bottle check and started to fade
away. With possession of the automata I opened the gate and ran a couple of
guys in. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Stupidly
for me, I decided to get looting rather than trying to stop the last remaining
Escher in. Had I have stopped her running in after my cultists I could have
added a few more bodies. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With a
clever move, my opponent moved her last ganger into the vault, ending the game,
stopping me sending anyone else in, and nabbing herself some credits!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Good
fun, but Cults will not do well without infiltrators. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next
scenario to try will be the Downtown Dust-up, with some bodies which have been
made. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Dlevs6DatGg/W_0AS3tMY3I/AAAAAAAA5mg/vEKLno8DNy4IkRhG9SauC400ubgeyia7gCLcBGAs/s1600/66442_b2629044e0f4e2de1d5696b0b87fcd06.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="944" data-original-width="686" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Dlevs6DatGg/W_0AS3tMY3I/AAAAAAAA5mg/vEKLno8DNy4IkRhG9SauC400ubgeyia7gCLcBGAs/s320/66442_b2629044e0f4e2de1d5696b0b87fcd06.jpg" width="232" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, while Necromunda is finally giving me that campaign progression that I've always wanted within 40k, I can honestly say that Heresy still is one of my favourite settings.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yes, the lack of content may worry some, but in reality we knew the focus would shift.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So! The boys in Crimson commeth! I'd toyed with a few options for which force to pick next, and I really was struggling with Word Bearers, or World Eaters. Both I absolutely love in fluff (now, thanks for making them hearty and scary again Dan and Aaron) and so in the end, it came down to model love.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Gal Vorbak.....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These are just the most amazing models that FW has ever produced. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YN1RWMb9O6o/W_0Acs_avQI/AAAAAAAA5mo/-wF4uCfzfw4JmDlzVIYwcrY2zSyK6mXcACLcBGAs/s1600/chaos.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="434" data-original-width="604" height="286" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YN1RWMb9O6o/W_0Acs_avQI/AAAAAAAA5mo/-wF4uCfzfw4JmDlzVIYwcrY2zSyK6mXcACLcBGAs/s400/chaos.jpg" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whichever sculptor they get to do their 'warped marines' is just fantastic, and I wonder if they had a hand in my old favourites, the Chosen from the Dark Vengeance box (THIS IS A PUSH FIT MODEL).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As well as this, the Ashen Circle everyone. Mmmm so so on rules but will definitely be using these as they are, no need to proxy them as Jump Troops if the models are this nice.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DeQNVC3IOIE/W_0AgR70IEI/AAAAAAAA5ms/qZNTcQfuPzQirJzUD_gD-Dzk63sgngrIQCLcBGAs/s1600/99590102166_LegionAshenCircle02.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="950" data-original-width="920" height="640" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DeQNVC3IOIE/W_0AgR70IEI/AAAAAAAA5ms/qZNTcQfuPzQirJzUD_gD-Dzk63sgngrIQCLcBGAs/s640/99590102166_LegionAshenCircle02.jpg" width="618" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Come to think of it I've even got an old Hellbrute, and some of those Chaos Chosen lying around too, I smell command squads!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These guys tipped it, combined as well with the ability to take some daemons, and having some funky characters and Psykers too!</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, I'd provisioned extra Battle for Calth marines when I knew I wanted more marines, so I had a fledgling force of 5 Gal Vorbak, 5 Ashen Circle, 30+ assorted tactical/Convertible marines.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The intent for these boys will be to have them as a drop army in support of my Sons of Horus/Mechanicum. So likely some drop-pods next, a leader, and maybe a couple of weapon packs to make their drops worthwhile.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I don't really anticipate seeing these painted until end of 2019, as the earlier part of the year will be focused on getting the remaining 40+ Sons of Horus boys done and dusted! Eesh, what a pain!</span><br />

Anyone?</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqq7W9MFlAM7ffoOucOqpndY_EHl70A_rngwUDo1Fex-owqJ2PDbOuwpv9jb592rf3ZxC9SkviqnkeOnFx-w8EQjqBaml_kz7gr_NWJx3i232JW_jxhnNMUoRelQR52mYnk6QL79R6Bua9/s1600/20181112_191810.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqq7W9MFlAM7ffoOucOqpndY_EHl70A_rngwUDo1Fex-owqJ2PDbOuwpv9jb592rf3ZxC9SkviqnkeOnFx-w8EQjqBaml_kz7gr_NWJx3i232JW_jxhnNMUoRelQR52mYnk6QL79R6Bua9/s640/20181112_191810.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This board was initially setup to play the caravan mission, but turned out to be pretty well set up for other games too. At the time of playing, I've still not had the opportunity to get an actual Caravan mission game in, as the gangs have been fighting over the ambush site itself.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vZjIF38WEro/W_UcC0UPJFI/AAAAAAAA5gE/lnv3JXoZOP0yJI1N8aFqVUiWi4RINnNsQCKgBGAs/s1600/20181112_191821.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vZjIF38WEro/W_UcC0UPJFI/AAAAAAAA5gE/lnv3JXoZOP0yJI1N8aFqVUiWi4RINnNsQCKgBGAs/s640/20181112_191821.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Main thing here I wanted (apologies for shakey-cam) was for the Caravan to feel sufficiently exposed, but be unimpeded on its journey to across the hive-floor.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'll definitely be adding some more scatter terrain for the defenders to crouch behind as the caravan moves.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HLGVA6PDEXM/W_UcC6GA5nI/AAAAAAAA5gE/OiyEUdmxO2Mvswtr-uVaSVMD-Px5AtpjwCKgBGAs/s1600/20181112_191816.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HLGVA6PDEXM/W_UcC6GA5nI/AAAAAAAA5gE/OiyEUdmxO2Mvswtr-uVaSVMD-Px5AtpjwCKgBGAs/s640/20181112_191816.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I wanted high vantage points for the ambush to truly feel like the defenders were risking the journey, and also for that classic 'canyon capers' type approach you see everywhere. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Artificial canyons work too!</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GUtojaym_5s/W_UcCzqkKZI/AAAAAAAA5gE/SVG4lOPpnKc0mhCfgbP-Wn44jpkDPRhWQCKgBGAs/s1600/20181112_191806.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GUtojaym_5s/W_UcCzqkKZI/AAAAAAAA5gE/SVG4lOPpnKc0mhCfgbP-Wn44jpkDPRhWQCKgBGAs/s640/20181112_191806.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The caravan escort mission looks like it will be a blast. Will report once finished!</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of the other campaign games I wanted to try was the Downtown Dust-up scenario, where the gangers spook the locals, I decided I also wanted to make that a bit more like the real deal. As our local group had a recent event, I went along to pick up some options for hivers that I could use in-game. I managed to pick up a collection of Old Empire Militia boys, some guardsmen, and even a servitor. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As conversion is my thing I gave these guys the bare minimum attention to make them hiver-y. A couple were turned into lifter servitors, a couple were turned into some hivemen out for a drink. In general, I didn’t want to give them much of my time considering how much Heresy stuff is unpainted!</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XMy8cub7BZg/W_UsDXFHKWI/AAAAAAAA5gk/JqaSv_-34YEbelfXKKNmkkpA30WMhggYACKgBGAs/s1600/20181101_072354.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XMy8cub7BZg/W_UsDXFHKWI/AAAAAAAA5gk/JqaSv_-34YEbelfXKKNmkkpA30WMhggYACKgBGAs/s640/20181101_072354.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But I got one of my kids involved and we slapped some paint all over them, generally keeping to the same colour palette as well to easily identify them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I’ve got a fairly good central ‘square’ location which I’ll try and theme the scenario around, but I’ll probably make a few tables and maybe a small shop to show why these guys collected in this place.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XNb6DVnoAGk/W_Us6f8NNgI/AAAAAAAA5g4/nYQatNVDgTw8eHK-3QAcnCmZqZGJrv4OgCKgBGAs/s1600/20181015_213716.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XNb6DVnoAGk/W_Us6f8NNgI/AAAAAAAA5g4/nYQatNVDgTw8eHK-3QAcnCmZqZGJrv4OgCKgBGAs/s640/20181015_213716.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Looking forward to trying this scenario soon too.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This and last week I've played a couple of games and am now involved in three total Necromunda campaigns with 2 gangs, Goliath and Cults</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2 of these have a fairly high game-rate, roughly weekly, and one is far more sporadic. All in all, most of my gangs are doing well across the board.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-l1euttweVkg/W_UsVv2WS6I/AAAAAAAA5gs/JHsEhctEK68PaBgcCnSGE5V13C5_sgjiwCKgBGAs/s1600/20181109_073241.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-l1euttweVkg/W_UsVv2WS6I/AAAAAAAA5gs/JHsEhctEK68PaBgcCnSGE5V13C5_sgjiwCKgBGAs/s640/20181109_073241.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I showed these last week but I finally based the Escher Enforcers I’d made, and tried to sort out the clear base fogging I’d experienced when basing them. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jKLC5zxeMcM/W_UsiP1USqI/AAAAAAAA5gw/KHFXJPiIcO4wEAPTMdFyHPUrpG0dkwqswCKgBGAs/s1600/20181118_233358.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="900" data-original-width="1600" height="360" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jKLC5zxeMcM/W_UsiP1USqI/AAAAAAAA5gw/KHFXJPiIcO4wEAPTMdFyHPUrpG0dkwqswCKgBGAs/s640/20181118_233358.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Stupidly, I didn’t look ahead at tips for how to manage these well, and apparently a fan passing over the base while the glue is drying drastically reduces the likelihood of fogging. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I tried to fix this with a bit of experimentation, I tried straight Lahmian medium, no dice. Then straight ‘ardcoat, better, but not great. Finally I tried mixing the two and this looks better, but still will need to see they last.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As well as this, this weeks focus was mainly on tinkering away with my various gangs in Yaktribe (Smackbeth is me) and playing the excellent Diluvion game that someone tipped me onto, good times.</span><br />

My take on these is below, and my results are here and the easiest process to do them quickly too.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RuerbbSrvVg/W-0r_BT9JMI/AAAAAAAA5Zw/qfLXff-YQFEYfmudYJZkqtHBMPQFAuhXACKgBGAs/s1600/20181001_220720.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="778" height="640" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RuerbbSrvVg/W-0r_BT9JMI/AAAAAAAA5Zw/qfLXff-YQFEYfmudYJZkqtHBMPQFAuhXACKgBGAs/s640/20181001_220720.jpg" width="310" /></span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So I had a batch of stuff scratchbuilt and wanted the ability to make them have some texture, without always relying on material like PVA/greenstuff/Modelling clays etc to do so.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I myself have searched and seen various different techniques for those elusive perfect circles. I've used all the below. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Chopped plasticard rod and </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Drilled holes</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So, this is what I've settled on as the best:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- Value for money</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- Lowest effort</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- Quickest to apply in bulk</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">- Best look for all of the above reasons.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">These look the part and are easy to apply </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here are a bunch of (wobbly) shots with me using these half beads. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Basically 1000 for 1.50 is really decent value for money. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I was also able to apply 800 of these things (I estimated) in about 4 hours. Here's my cheat sheet</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Get a dish, tip some into it.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Shake the dish so the bead have their dome side facing upwards</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Get a paperclip and unfold, add a blob of blue tack to one end, so that you can pick the beads up.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Dab one end of the paperclip in a some PVA and apply dot of PVA to model surface</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Flip paperclip and pick bead up by its domed head.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Apply bead and 799 more.</span></li>
</ol>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I dotted the PVA about 20 times and then did the bead(s) but do whatever suits you really!</span><br />

Its a long way down from the high points too!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">One of the key things I wanted was stable, and playable height. The massive column thing they made in White Dwarf all those years ago still sticks with me, and loads more people will remember it as well.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My issue is storage. I'm sure the original 'Beast' shown here was a dream to play on and a nightmare to store. I wanted a bit of both. I'm aware that I couldn't take over my garage, but still want to be able to get a decent number of bodies at almost eye level.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Well I can confirm it IS worth doing some height stuff as this has allowed me to get taaaaaall games in</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Enter APTAMIL cans. Or giant Pineapple cans, or paint pots, or giant bits of piping (note to self, add!). These beauties are pretty solid, and when combined with a massive amount of PVA, and some grunt, these form a pretty solid base. I tapered the base with some additional bits of thicker polystyrene (and then coated the hell out of it again with PVA).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I cutout a hatch-hole carefully after this to try and make the piece uniform enough.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This then looked tall, and could immediately raise the height of some of the existing bits of scenery, but I wanted to be able to use the damn thing as an actual gaming piece, a centrepiece if I wanted to.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Enter under gravel filters. These things were all over the Necromunda Facebook group and I cannot recommend them enough, for about 7 quid you get some awesome industrial looking surfaces, along with the ability to combine them to form surfaces, or bridges. The hidden bonus to these is that they are pretty light, and therefore can make lengthy enough bridges without collapsing things with their weight.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So I shaved a roughly circular shape into one of the panels, and boom, balconette. For stability I also added a brass rod underneath, hidden by some industrial looking tubing.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For rivets I then went to town, i'll put a Tutorial up soon for how I made them and the process I followed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Because this double pillar piece by itself would appear a bit uncharacteristic, I made pair more of these raised tiles with the aid of 8 separate Azeera Coffee cans that were lying around. when I started I didn't realise that one a pair were shorter than the others. ENTER GRAVEL FILTERS AGAIN.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">These, coupled with some leftover MDF discs raised the height to a uniform level. By gluing (that didn't work) and then screwing in the caps to the underhive tiles, I managed to make them swap-able and the same height as the existing Mortalis tiles from FW.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As legs of the Underhive to fight amongst I wasn't too worried about the quality of the painting as its all about the line of sight.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As I wanted to keep this in line with the rest of my tiles I followed the same process as before, and added PVA to Polyfilla to make a rough format, and then press moulded with the tile mould I had.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Last of the three part look into the Necromunda Cultists is the juicy one, here is an overview of each mission of 24 (thanks book 4) missions at time of going to press that will benefit you as the Chaos gang loving-sinisters the most....</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ultimately don't be afraid to give those I've noted as 'poor' choice a chance, as once the bullets get flying its all to play for! Based on how I run the gang (cheap horde) this is my interpretation of how each would go.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So I looked at all the missions and weighed up some strengths and weaknesses from last weeks blog post, and identified core strengths being...</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>- Large gang size, high movement capability, high initiative</i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Weaknesses being</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>- Weak secondary stats, poorly armoured guys, poor cool</i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
Of the 13 missions when you pick one of the scenarios with attackers and defenders, I’ve interpreted that when the enemy picks the scenario and you are defending...<br />- <b>5/13 </b>times being the defender you’ll be worse off<br />-<b> 7/13</b> times being the defender will be of neutral benefit<br />- <b>1/13</b> times being the defender are good for you! <b><span style="background-color: #6aa84f; color: white;">(Fighter down)</span></b><br />When you pick a scenario as the attacker<br />-<b> 1/13</b> times being the attacker you’ll be worse off<br />-<b> 5/13 </b>times being the attacker will be of neutral benefit<br />- <b>7/13 </b>instances of being the attacker are good for you. <b style="background-color: #6aa84f;"><span style="color: white;">(Looters, Sabotage, Rescue mission, Prison break, Last stand, Caravan Heist, Escape</span></b><br /><br />So stats wise –<b><span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: white;">23.5%</span></b> of these missions are not in your favour, <b><span style="background-color: #cccccc; color: white;">46%</span></b> are neutral and <span style="background-color: #6aa84f; color: white;"><b>30.5%</b> </span>are good choices.<br /><br />Generally then get in there and pick these missions be<b><u><span style="font-size: large;"> the attacker! </span></u></b>Unless you’re really struggling with the rest of the campaign, be that attacker and get in there! <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />For the other 11 missions where there are no attackers/defenders.<br />- <b>6/11</b> are a bad choice <span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: white;">(<b>Downtown dust up, Shootout, Spook Harvest, Archeo hunters, Monster hunt, Murder Cyborg)</b></span><br />-<b> 2/11</b> are a neutral choice and depend on your play style <b><span style="background-color: #999999; color: white;">(Stand off, Border Dispute)</span></b><br /><b>- 3/11</b> are a good choice <span style="background-color: #6aa84f; color: white;">(<b>Claim the spire, Escape the Pit, In the dark)</b></span><br /><br /><b><span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: white;">54%</span> </b>bad, <b><span style="background-color: #cccccc; color: white;">18%</span> </b>neutral, <b><span style="background-color: #6aa84f; color: white;">27%</span> </b>in your favour<br />Generally if you get to pick a mission and you want to do a scenario, pick the attackers/Defenders ones.<br /><br />Here’s my detailed analysis....<br /><br /><b><span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: white;">Red </span></b>for don’t do it!<br /><b><span style="background-color: #cccccc; color: white;">Neutral </span></b>grey for ‘it depends on you to win based on how you deploy/move/prioritise/play the mission’<br /><b><span style="background-color: #6aa84f; color: white;">Green</span> </b>for ‘this is gonna be fun’<br /><br /><a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9M4-xgxnZXs/W87KzgORpYI/AAAAAAAA4kc/5dHC96RPNzIcBYFpuatbknOZyJRnh0MpQCLcBGAs/s1600/270px-ChaosCultists.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="210" data-original-width="270" height="311" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9M4-xgxnZXs/W87KzgORpYI/AAAAAAAA4kc/5dHC96RPNzIcBYFpuatbknOZyJRnh0MpQCLcBGAs/s400/270px-ChaosCultists.jpg" width="400" /></a><br /><span style="background-color: #cccccc; color: white;"><b>Stand Off - Neutral choice</b> -</span> Nice and simple deathmatch<br /><br /><span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: white;"><b>Looters as Defenders- Bad Choice</b>,</span> low numbers of starting fighters will mean you’re not guaranteed to get your decent guys on the field.<br /><b><span style="background-color: #6aa84f; color: white;">Looters as Attackers – Good choice</span></b>, you’ve got decent abilities and mobility, so you should be able to get in there fast and out with the loot. - <br /><br /><b><span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: #f3f3f3;">Ambush as Defenders – Bad choice,</span></b> you’ll have a better time at range, with low armour and highish cool you’ll suffer from not activating much.<br /><b><span style="background-color: #999999; color: white;">Ambush as Attackers – Neutral choice</span></b> Ultimately you don’t want to be near to the enemy, but needing to be close before the enemy can scatter away into better cover means you’re not going to excel here.<br /><br /><b style="background-color: #999999;"><span style="color: white;">Border dispute - Neutral choice</span></b> – You will do ok here, tending to bad simply for reinforcements. Moving to the enemy relic is easy enough with decent movement and even infiltration, however, a larger gang also means slower reinforcements (d3 a turn) so don’t expect everyone to arrive fast!<br /><br /><b><span style="background-color: #999999; color: white;">Sabotage, Rescue mission, Prison break as Defenders – Neutral choice</span></b>– good initiative and movement mean that you’ll be roaming around the map and hopefully will spot people early. The bad is that you won’t have many people on the table to stop the full gang on the other side, and those guys on the table will be (on average) weaker than the others.<br /><b><span style="background-color: #6aa84f; color: white;">Sabotage, Rescue mission, Prison break as Attackers – Good choice</span></b> –you can assign a cultist for each enemy and track the sentries with superior numbers. The high movement and initiative will allow for quick movement around these scenarios. Your primary skillset being cunning also allows infiltration up the map as well.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji9wMmIM-JPlT7TeQde9dM7qtMKDqgPeOmT_W6WFCdBmTZMwS1luUsDHrz-HlouiJwUyn47CSSN0ehdsG_VAaJJQGI1tyNRTYRSj3FL5GQl-PCQ5L0II9ZDEllbFCQcrUd19fO0On_FxgM/s1600/20181017_191313.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="778" data-original-width="1600" height="310" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji9wMmIM-JPlT7TeQde9dM7qtMKDqgPeOmT_W6WFCdBmTZMwS1luUsDHrz-HlouiJwUyn47CSSN0ehdsG_VAaJJQGI1tyNRTYRSj3FL5GQl-PCQ5L0II9ZDEllbFCQcrUd19fO0On_FxgM/s640/20181017_191313.jpg" width="640" /></a><br /><b style="background-color: #6aa84f;"><span style="color: white;">Claim the spire Good choice!</span></b> Infiltrate to the highest point and reap those points. Decent movement and decent initiative means you can also race to the highest point if you don’t have an infiltrator, additional bodies mean you can dedicate some of your guys to pinning the other gang, while your fastest bods get cracking and climbing.<br /><br /><b><span style="background-color: #cccccc; color: white;">T</span><span style="color: white;"><span style="background-color: #cccccc;">he Gauntlet as Defenders </span></span></b><span style="background-color: #cccccc; color: white;">– </span><b><span style="background-color: #cccccc; color: white;">Neutral choice</span>,</b> putting the melee/flamer armed guys near the enemy will definitely benefit the Ferocity skills in the gang, but your unarmoured helots will get chewed up fast.<br /><span style="background-color: #cccccc; color: white;"><b>The Gauntlet as Attackers </b>– </span><b><span style="background-color: #cccccc; color: white;">Neutral choice</span>,</b> you can move pretty quick with a lot of bodies at high initiative, but you are squishy so may close range is good, strength will help with close range stuff but Initiative may also be a big factor<br /><br /><span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: white;"><b>Last stand as Defenders</b> – <b>Bad choice</b></span>. This mission is a test of staying power without the ability to bring on more bodies, and Cults need bodies! While we may be good at this game at the start of the campaign, the further in we go, the harder it will be as the enemy can bring in their entire 20+ man gang fairly quickly. <br />When the enemy can keep bringing on their guys when they get knocked down they become the endless horde of guys! The random selection also puts us at a loss as we can miss out on the uppers altogether. <br /><span style="background-color: #6aa84f; color: white;"><b>Last stand as Attackers – Good choice</b>.</span> The ability to bring on everyone? The whole crew? This works nicely in the large gangs favour as we’re pretty mobile too, and should mean we can whittle the enemy down fast, and be very themey with suiciding the guys up into the enemy<br /><br /><b><span style="background-color: #6aa84f; color: white;">Escape the Pit - Good choice! </span></b>Base gangers have decent Initiative to avoid the crushing walls of death, and good movement to get into the centre. If I were you, I’d place the loot directly in the direction you want to travel, so you can pick any up on your journey out. 1xp for the mission plus 1xp for escaping in the correct way is nothing to sniff at, if you can carry loot with you-great, ideally you can also get to the highest point with all the crates and wait for the walls to crush the other gang below you!<br /><br /><b><span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: white;">Downtown dust up - Bad choice.</span></b> You can’t swarm these guys with bodies this time around, and the random selection hurts your game-style. You can be quite gamey with the placement of the Hive Dwellers but then so can the enemy, and stats wise a default Helot cultist is going to be worse off than any other ganger if they get shot by a stub gun from one of the guys nearby.<br /><br /><b><span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: white;">Shootout - Bad choice </span></b>– Random selection method, small gang size, poor overall cool for gangers, the only saving grace is the initiative steps they may get ahead of others but not likely! Avoid!<br /><br /><b><span style="background-color: #cccccc; color: white;">Caravan heist As Defenders - Neutral choice.</span></b> You get the benefit of not bottling, but we have that anyway with the size we are. <br />Unlimited bodies is also a great option to have. With you being locked to being near the caravan to protect it, you don’t get much defence standing around/in the open. <br /><span style="background-color: #6aa84f;"><b><span style="color: white;">Caravan heist as attackers – Good choice</span></b>.</span> Climbing and jumping are the Cults strengths, we can ambush well from a decent position, and we have plenty of bodies to jump on and get capturing those counters. A horde of 5 guys leaping onto that thing would be great fun! <br /><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HyNXaRo4GHE/W87N1W412BI/AAAAAAAA4ks/Z5SQEBpmVs4WhCx8EbHRtJEg21IzeHIuQCLcBGAs/s1600/Chaos-Cultist.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="675" data-original-width="479" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-HyNXaRo4GHE/W87N1W412BI/AAAAAAAA4ks/Z5SQEBpmVs4WhCx8EbHRtJEg21IzeHIuQCLcBGAs/s400/Chaos-Cultist.jpg" width="283" /></a><br /><span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: white;"><b>Spook Harvest - Bad choice</b>.</span> Custom selection – boo!<br />Intelligence checks to harvest – boo!<br />Toughness tests to take the stuff - boo!<br />Willpower to not fail – boo! <br />However, our guys are more disposable, so this would be fun as hell to get em all trying it.<br /><br /><span style="background-color: #6aa84f; color: white;"><b>In the dark – Good choice</b>, </span>the majority of basic weapons we have are ‘horrors of the dark attracting’ and so we’re likely not to enjoy firing much. Saying that we do quite well in close combat with ferocity and cunning skills, so when we are close we can do some damage. We can draw the enemy to shoot us with some sacrificial offerings. <br />As well as this we can bring enough bodies to not get tagged by the ‘Horrors in the dark’ 8inch from a friendly rule. <br /><br /><span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: white;"><b>Archaeo hunters</b> - <b>Bad choice</b>, </span>Random selection, and intelligence to activate the Automata to help<br /><br /><b><span style="background-color: #cc0000; color: white;">Monster hunt – Bad choice,</span></b> random selection, and the simple fact that your guys have to be pretty wounded to attract the monster in the dark, as well as getting rid of the monster lair counters at close range! We don’t like close!</span><div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /><br /><b><span style="font-size: large;">Tactics summary</span></b><br />Cultists are great fun to play. Throw bodies at the enemy and don’t care about what happens to them. Because of their high movement, and good initiative they can and do enjoy highly mobile missions.<br />Harsh as it sounds, defending sucks for these guys. Try and get the decent missions where each gang is on a relatively even footing. VS missions are far better, and it seems like success with these guys will grow over time.<br />They don’t have physical staying power with their resilience, but can be bloody minded, which counts too. <br />Use cover where possible, double up against tougher targets, and avoid small squad missions if you can.. <br /></span></div>
