Those conversions are brilliant. Please keep up the good work!

[@digitalwastrel]

Thank you so much!

[@CommanderCheapSkate]

Excellent analysis and work on this video! I love how you break everything down and even provide starting rosters too! And the doggo makes everything even more epic! Nicely done! Subbed!

[@digitalwastrel]

Thanks a lot! I'm a fan of your channel so I'm very happy you like my stuff :D

[@tatianamalinovsky7750]

Sir, this is the best and most humane escher guide I've seen so far on the internets. The kitbashing tips are priceless! Please accept my gratitude for your hard work!

[@tatianamalinovsky7750]

I did both of the kitbshing you've mentioned and it turned out amazing! I took a piece from the orlock upgrade pack for the grenade launcher, and it turned out just great! I am so happy because I am kind of new with the kitbashing so the ways I wanted to apply the grenade launcher on the escher model weren't great, and I was looking for ideas, so you gave me a perfect one! Can't thank you enough!

[@digitalwastrel]

I'm glad it turned out well for you! Thanks for the kind words and please enjoy exploding the enemies of house escher with your new grenade launcher!

While I don’t currently play Necromunda (may in the future-def would pick Escher) and just starting in 40K with CSM your hobby tips are a great help! Thank you for showing steps of conversion. Very helpful. Wish the box came with a grenade launcher, but the AM weapon on the chem thrower is good conversion. Using 2 boxes of Escher gang, one upgrade pack for heavy stubber/extra heads and hair, and the two AM grenade launchers to make 20 unique CSM cultists. Lot better looking kit than the official chaos cultists imo.

Great video! Just the sort of thing I wanted now that I’m getting into Necromunda. Good bit in the intro.

[@digitalwastrel]

Glad you liked it!

[@SantiagoHorsFraile]

Thanks for this video. Just what I needed to better understand this gang ❤️

[@digitalwastrel]

Glad it was helpful! Have fun with Escher, they're a really great gang to play!

[@TheMisiewicz]

Great stuff! Keep on going!

[@digitalwastrel]

Will do! 4 more House Gangs to go at least ;)

[@McMathwin]

I really like your guides

[@digitalwastrel]

Thanks! I'm glad they're useful

[@doubleskullwargaming]

Really useful mate. Thanks a lot!

[@digitalwastrel]

Happy to help! Thanks for the support!

[@dirtybirdsf]

Nice guide. Gunslingers are cool.

[@digitalwastrel]

You're right, nothing cooler than a gunslinger!

[@MrDracoSpirit]

Bolter/needlers can be decent. Costs a bit more than a bolter, but still cheaper than a plasmagun. However the fact you have to run out of ammo twice, means by the time your out of ammo, the game is already over. Also a nice choice of gun for someone more close combat focused if the creds are going well, since it leave two slots open, but punches plenty well in a long ranged shoot out.

[@digitalwastrel]

Yeah, it comes down to how much you value each out of cost, reliability and weapon slots in the end. Combis dont generally do it for me, but that definitely doesnt mean they're a bad choice!

[@Tiwaz81]

Great intro!

[@digitalwastrel]

He'll be glad you liked it!

i got the delaque/escher starter ages back, decided to build delaque as my main, got the weapons sprue and they were set, the escher however, after getting my hands on house of blades and looking through weapons lists, seems am gonna have to convert the leaders combi needler to a combi plasma for my specialist, and the guard bits boxes spare grenade launchers i have will finally come in handy for my leader :) (this is to say i agree the options in book vs options available for wargear load out is frustrating, and am glad i can convert, a bunch of newcomers to game could find this more frustrating)

[@digitalwastrel]

Yeah the weapons kits help a lot but they're not perfect
