Ironically these are two things I have sought for Cadians/Kriegers for a while. I have one Rapier no Cyclops. Now if I could only get my hands on a Crassus!

Nice one, Zack Games has the Crassus: zackgame5.com/crassus-armoured-assault-transport_p1286.html I bought the Malcador defender recently from there and he quality was decent overall

I've taken a set of 3 rapier's (I got a really nice of 3D prints off of Etsy) and found them a very interesting unit. They aren't exactly the strongest unit but they pack such a punch for how cheap they are because of twinlinked and because they are infantry you can set them up on buildings in higher floors for that extra AP of plunging fire. Only thing about higher floors is ask your TO and your opponent as you can have potential arguments over the barrels sticking out the windows/over the edge.

Fields of fire also makes them worth their salt. Turns them into straight up lascannons with a shorter range

I've brought a unit of 3 in all my competitive games since getting them. Can't imagine not having them.

After seeing one of your previous videos on "Forgery World" I picked up the Armigers set and some Eldar Warlocks. The casting was pretty good, except for one of the Warlocks' heads. I just swapped in a spare head. Also, they parts didn't have any noticeable release agent on them, so I just went a head and started painting and it was all fine. My understanding is that release agents are a lot less common with resin these days, and you can probably skipp the whole "wash in warm soapy water" step unless you're having paint adhesion issues.

Ah thats great news, glad you've had a good experience with them. Ah cool, I didnt know about the release agent so that's super helpful!

Wanted to run an idea by you, if you've got Sly near several astra militarum units and they get shot at, can be use his abilities repeatedly and move and shoot and stuff? Hypothetically, he could be near a unit getting shot at, shoot, move, and then repeat so long as he is near something getting shot at.
@GuardsmanHanan10 ай бұрын
Hmm so that definitely makes sense as far as his rules read. Given he can move after he 'shoots' and it doesn't stipulate which phase its in, that technically could work. Could mean he could also move after firing overwatch. Probably be wise to check the rules commentary document after 'out of phase' shooting though as these types of rules are never straight forward.

The Hades being good in 9th was definitely thanks to its points. Hopefully in the next slate it comes back down to be within decent prices similar to our regular transports (since that's basically what it does!). It's basically a guard drop pod that can't come in turn 2 or transport more than 1 unit. So if it comes to within the range of drop pods (currently 70 points) I'll definitely be considering dusting mine off and bringing a big brick of ogryn to pop out with it!

@@bopaintsminis once they're painted no one would notice. You'd have to look pretty hard at the models and have a legit one to reference next to you. The only people that would care are GW sponsored events and even then they're not gonna check each and every model from every player that they're legit. You should be safe to play with them anywhere

I bought the death guard upgrade set from all4wargaming out of Russia. They actually accepted PayPal. Bought an infantry kit because those are typically the hardest to recast. Very satisfactory for the price. Fast shipping. I just wish they had the Magaera and Styrix conversions.
