First time posting

Just thought about sharing some things I've been working on. I just started with these recently, I really loved the sea green armor color from when Age of Darkness came out, and honestly that should've been the reason to go with the 16th, but since my buddy went Iron Warriors, I kept looking at loyalist legions, going back and forth about which one, blah blah blah. The amount of choices became a "writer's block" of sorts where I ended up doing nothing with the kits at all. But, after a "go big or go home" testing the colors on the Contemptor, I think I'm home.

Side by sides/design comparison

Hey everyone,

Just wondering if anyone would mind sharing some side by sides or mixed units of these two types of Boyz. I'm curious how well they look together as far as the sculpting design direction of each version. Like, do they look similar enough to mix together or would they be too different like mingling the OG 3rd edition gorilla bodied version with the easy to build versions also pictured here?

​

Anyways, thanks for reading and sharing your pictures!

Vehicular Weapon consideration

Hey all,

I was looking to build/run 2 Dunecrawlers and 2 Skorpius tanks. Trying to decide if it would be better to leave the Anti-tank to the Skorpius with the Ferrumite Cannons and Disruptor Missiles and look at the Eradication Beamer and/or Phosphor Blaster for the Dunecrawlers. I was also considering Eradication Beamer/Neutron Laser. Though may not be the optimal choice with Indirect being what it is, I was also interested in the idea of two Belleros Energy Cannons raining damage down from afar.

What all have you gone with and what combinations do you like? I have a pretty basic army otherwise, Skitarii infantry squads, a couple Duneriders, all the usual support characters and Breachers/Destroyers.

Thanks for reading, looking forward to the feedback!

Army composition help

Hey all

A few months ago I ended up selling off a decent Tau collection and ended up channeling those funds into a fledgling Sisters army. I've kind of been dragging my feet about starting because I'm worried I didn't really do a decent job with the unit I've selected and now I'm not sure if what I've got is really any good to put together. I'm sure it's just the "just need to get started" mentality, but I need a little support/direction.

So far, what I've got is:

Aestred Thurga/Agathae Dolan

Morvenn Vahl

Saint Celestine with Geminate

x1 Canoness

x1 Canoness with Jump Pack

x1 Dialogus

x1 Imagifer

x1 Palatine

x2 Battle Sister squads

x10 Arco-Flagellants

x5 Celestian Sacresants

x5 Zephyrim

x2 Castigators

x1 Exorcist

x1 Rhino

I wanted to at least try to get a 1000pt list together to start playing/painting/learning the army but I'm worried I don't have enough Battle Sisters or the right support Leaders 😬. Again, probably overthinking it, but is what's here playable?

I'd be appreciative of any suggestions, as far as what would be a good addition or if what I have is playable some ideas on how I might want to play it.

Anyways, thanks for reading! Looking forward to your thoughts.

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone can tell me how close in size the arms of this firstborn Terminator Librarian and the Leviathan Terminator Librarian are to determine if swapping the old arms to the new Librarian would be compatible or would he have little T-Rex arms?

Thanks!

Hey all,

Just messing with something more aggressive than my usual type of army composition, which is typically a balance of long range Anti-tank and infantry Battleline supported by a Dreadnought. Was curious what you'd consider adding for the remaining points.

Marneus Calgar

Chaplain in Terminator Armor with Scrolls of Proclamation

Librarian in Terminator Armor with Liberatum

x5 Assault Terminators with Hammer/Shield (with Calgar)

x5 Assault Terminators with Lightning Claws (with Chaplain)

x5 Assault Terminators with Lightning Claws (with Librarian)

Land Raider with Multi-Melta, Storm Bolter, Hunter-Killer Missile

Land Raider with Multi-Melta, Storm Bolter, Hunter-Killer Missile

Land Raider with Multi-Melta, Storm Bolter, Hunter-Killer Missile

I felt like this could give some great opportunities to push forward, potentially boxing the enemy in and limit their mobility. Without necessarily changing what's there, how would you support it with the last 470pts? Some Dreadnoughts? Storm Speeders? Battleline units might not be a bad idea either...

Thanks for reading!
