xd That reminds me of the first time I used my Vanquisher at the local Rogue Trader. My opponents instantly came to fear it, just because it looks nasty. Luckily, it's just as mean as it looks. 3nodding

And I've recently started painted again, including my Colonel and the Regimental Standard. I've given my standard a name already, the Black Banner of the 501st. Unfortunitely I found that all the pictures of my Colonel were blurred to Hell, but I put one up anyway to show how he generally looks.

While the Arvus might be cheap, tiny and can keep a low profile due to its lack of weapons, it is a one trick pony that will gain you instant git status once you deploy it. Granted you can win games with it, but will it really be worth the cost and timing? Besides the lighter is supposed to be used in massive waves, like Starship Troopers or D-Day.

The Vulture on the other hand might not be able to keep a low profile, but it can bite and depending on the load out, it can bite hard and cause quite some bleeders. It has use throughout the game, instead of relying on one swift move and a chance drop-off to win the game. Vulture can remain mobile, open fire and really do something at each turn. Just don't go into VTOL mode for no apparent reason.

Plus I'd be the pilot of one. *hint hint hint* Blodwyn MacTavish reporting for air support.
You'd kill me in my sleep if I made you the pilot of a Arvus most likely anyway.

I already have one and while FW has three Vanquisher variants, I'm sticking to one that will be the command vehicle of my future tank company. I'm just four tanks shy of a full company, so in the next two years it will see completion.

Mat! Don't give him any bad ideas, that money is supposed to go towards my own fund raiser for a new car with super stereo and black windows.

Actually, a Krieg army is more tempting now that I have IA vol. 5 at my disposal. Krieg units are pretty effing good as each unit gets Hardened Fighters, even the Rough Riders and Storm Troopers. So a WS 4 army is a good thing. Plus the numerous artillery options make it a shooters' dream come true.

Oh and that car? A Mercedes is a little too much for you my little lass, so best start off with something a little more smaller and befitting of your cute and adorable demeanor, maybe a Mini or Smart. We'll talk about a bigger car next year.

I suppose it'd be too much to ask what the specific rules were for the Death Korps, wouldn't it? sad


ninja Mini ftw.

How dare you ask me to break the rules?! If that slimy little c**t of a NightPredator11 ever found out my chops would be busted in the supreme court of internet trials! I'd actually have to show up at court with a big rainbow afro and a clowns nose, disabling all support from my loved one for extreme fear of clowns.

*coughs* checkyourinboxsometimesoon *cough*

IA 5 FTW though! It comes with the double sided campaign poster / Krieg regimental organization chart: http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/poster.htm

The book also has the full background on the regiments of Krieg, some s**t on the Dark Angels and the full story on the regiments of Vraks.

Someone, I'm not telling who, but I think you might know him very well is going to get a divorce for Christmas. And a kick in the fun bag. And a knee to the kidneys for good measure. And maybe, just maybe, a proper burial.

Can't be me, I'm not that stupid to marry you. I mean, I don't see your ring on my finger. emo

Any way, IG can flourish once more, now that Kommando Khaki can be applied easier.

A GW store rep showed me just easy khaki can be applied with Khemri Brown as the basecoat over black.
PostPosted: Wed Nov 14, 2007 4:54 am


For me i find it easy enough to to paint light blue over my black basecoat. Oh hey speaking of paint. Im think of redoing everything. Probley gonna use the same colors but im getting tired of the shininess that my stuff has. I was thinkg of doing my tanks like this

But maybe with more fluid lines. Then I plat on paints the right front profile of the tank solid black and using that as the unit markings area

I'm going for the classic Cadian / UK 1980's camo scheme for my tanks.
