How’s it going boys?

Here’s my Risen Judiciar Kitbash I did a couple months back, thought I’d show the full 360!

If you wanna see the full kitbash and painting process then check out my YouTube channel @HooHammer!

Lmk what you think, cheers!

Hi everyone

So right now I'm working on this nice bolter and I immediately noticed that it had two ejection ports for the sleeves on both sides. Never noticed that before. Could anyone explain how is it even possible? 🤔

UPD: Thanks everyone for responding, it was very interesting to read all your thoughts 🙂‍↕️

Here’s my finished Vanguard Vet squad. As I said before, I don’t know what I’ll ever actually use them. I’m still a bit of a curmudgeon when it comes to power-armored Deathwing, but I tried my best to make them look like I think they should.

Brothers!
What are we thinking about the update to The Lion’s forest walk ability?

Doesn’t seem right that you pick it in your command phase and have to wait until your opponents command phase to pick him up.
Also contradicts itself by explicitly saying that you can make an ingress move turn one.

Can he deep strike turn 1 if you start the game in reserves now ? What are your thoughts??

With his new points cut I definitely want to be running him but I feel like I don’t understand when I’d use his uppy downy now with these changes.

And finally the squad is done! I magnetized the arm on this one so I can someday get him a plasma cannon.

Let me know any C&C.

Next one done! Did a light kitbashing to later build a cyclone missile launcher with bits I have lying around, but that will be a project for the future...

I am realizing I'm awful at taking photos at minis, honestly I think my models look better in person 😅

Let me know what you think!

just finished painting my blade guard veterans. I wanna know if there’s anything I can do to make them better because I want them to look good. unless they already look good.

Also, how do I take better pictures so it doesn’t look like a child painted my minis?

Hello,

I need some advice please.

I don't know if i keep the flashy green or if I lower it like on the arms?

Any advise?

Thank you!

Looks like Command Squad will stay and not go to legends and it also went from leader to support interesting.

Seems to me that RW units and Company of Hunters had pretty big buffs (at a time where that combo is already pretty strong).

If I were a conspiracy theorist, id argue GW are buffing RW units to clear out stock in time for a refresh soon.

Maybe sooner than expected.

Seeing that Ravenwing Command Squad drops in point and are moved to being support i feel that Company of Hunters are insane powerful.

2x Chaplain, RWCmd, 6 Black Knights

1xSamael, RWCmd, 6 Black Knight

At rapid fire, thats almost 90 plasma shot (most at devW) and over 90 attack (most with +1 to wound) and movement to deliver it. Currently trying it out against Sisters.

Rules changes:

Company of Hunters:

Friendly ADEPTUS ASTARTES have: ▪ This unit’s ranged attacks have [ASSAULT]. ▪ When this unit is selected to make a fall-back move, that fall-back move does not prevent this unit from being eligible to shoot.

Friendly ADEPTUS ASTARTES MOUNTED have: ▪ This unit’s ranged attacks have [ASSAULT]. ▪ When this unit is selected to make an advance move, that advance move does not prevent this unit from being eligible to declare a charge. ▪ When this unit is selected to make a fall-back move, that fall-back move does not prevent this unit from being eligible to shoot and eligible to declare a charge.

Death on the Wind Stratagem Change to: ‘WHEN: Your Movement phase, when a friendly ADEPTUS ASTARTES unit ends an advance move. TARGET: That ADEPTUS ASTARTES unit. EFFECT: That advance move does not prevent your unit from being eligible to declare a charge.’ Talon Strike Stratagem Change to: ‘WHEN: Fight phase, when a friendly ADEPTUS ASTARTES unit is selected to fight. TARGET: That ADEPTUS ASTARTES unit. EFFECT: Your unit’s melee attacks have [LANCE].’

Unforgiven Task Force:

(Once per battle, per army) When this model is destroyed, at the end of the phase, roll one D6: ▪ On a 2+, set up this model on the battlefield, unengaged and as close as possible to where it was destroyed. This model is not part of an attached unit and its unit has a starting strength of 1. This model has 3 wounds remaining, or its full wounds remaining if this model was battle-shocked when it was destroyed.’

Units:

ICC:

Inner Circle Companions, Braziers of Judgement ability Change to: ▪ This unit has Stealth. ▪ Melee attacks that target this unit have ‑1 to hit rolls.

Lion El’Jonson ▪ Keywords section: Add 'MOBILE'. ▪ All Secrets Revealed Ability – Change to: ‘Mist-wreathed Shadow Realms: At the end of your opponent’s turn, if this unit is unengaged, you can use this ability. If you do: ▫ Place this unit in strategic reserves. ▫ This unit can make an ingress move in your next Movement phase (including in your first turn).

Nephilim Jetfighter, Lightning-fast Manoeuvres Ability Change to: ‘Ranged attacks that target this unit have ‑1 to wound rolls.’

Ravenwing Command Squad goes from Leader to Support.

Biggest thing is Lion, ICC, and RWCS. Also Assault in Company of Hunters.

Minor Space Marine general changes:

Company Heroes no longer need a Captain or Chapter Master.

Bladeguard now get to choose whether they gain +1 to hit or enemy gets -1 to hit in melee when selected to fight as opposed to at the beginning of the Fight Phase.

Anything that's a vehicle but not a bike has Frame, so no longer base-to-base.

Guilliman gets Mobile.

Vanguard Vets get the Armageddon loadout as a separate option: All models can each have their Bolt Pistol and Vanguard Veteran Weapon replaced with: ▫ 1 Heavy Bolt Pistol and 1 Master-crafted Power Weapon ▫ For every 5 models in this unit, 1 model can replace their Heavy Bolt Pistol with 1 Plasma Pistol.

Intercessors Target Elimination rule "changed", but it's functionally identical with a different name.

Lion: 265 (-20)

Nephilim Jetfighter 180 (-15)

July update dropped - as well as getting MOBILE, the lion can do his uppy downy in turn 1

All Secrets Revealed Ability – Change to:

‘Mist-wreathed Shadow Realms: At the end of your opponent’s turn, if this unit is unengaged, you can use this ability. If you do:

▫ Place this unit in strategic reserves.

▫ This unit can make an ingress move in your next Movement phase (including in your first turn).’

Edit: as has been pointed out to me, you can only choose this ability in your command phase, so you can't uppy at the end of your opponent's turn if they go first. So still no uppy downy turn 1 under RAW

Hey! I just started my Dark Angel this is my 4th attempt for my Hellblaster and I still I'll stick with that kind of "Grimdark" style. This is my first Space Marine army I usually paint guard so I'm looking for some feeback on things to improve ( I suck at bases I'll probably redo them at some point)

Looks like ICC no longer need a leader to get their ability. I will probably still run them with Azzy, but it’s an interesting change nonetheless.

Edit- spelling

Need to go back and clean up some flash I missed during assembly, but I took a spare BGV body and combined some spare Sternguard, ICC, and Intercessor bits (plus a spare DW Shoulder) and made my own Azrael proxy to be more authentic to my chapter
