AND Spirit Host Conver Desfer, I love that spirit host conversion, and I can't wait to see it painted. That looks wonderful! It reminds me of some of the art from the previous VC book whose art I...

    Swiss's Tomb Kings

    Thank you to RedArmy27 for setting up the photobox so I could have a good photo for a change too. :) This is the Warsphinx, I loved painting this thing! Next up? Archers.

    Evil Stunties

    Ah, Chaos Dwarfs! I love these guys, and having played them a few years now I can say they are a fun army. You will enjoy them. They're looking good so far. Keep it up, and I look forward to seeing more. I've had a very good experience with finecast so far, but that's been with TK stuff made...

    Painting groups?

    Who here does painting groups? I used to paint alone most of the time, but I've found painting with someone makes it more productive and enjoyable. Also having a regular opponent(s)helps get you motivated too.

    Storm of Magic - discussion thread

    RE: Storm of Magic, next month - confirmed For mega battles, especially working with alliances and such I find the rules work just fine. They put them in the BRB book for a reason after all. 2 vs 2... maybe even 3 v 3 (or 2 vs 3 if the first side is still the same size or has the advantage of...

    CN Forum... 16th best WH forum on the internet!

    The two I enjoy the most are this site and CDO. I dunno, I just find I like the communities more. Not that the others are bad by any means, I guess those two just work for me personally.

    Storm of Magic - discussion thread

    RE: Storm of Magic, next month - confirmed @lynks Oh, I'd agree with you there. It is not scalable. Totally agree on that. I'm fine with it for say 3,500 points+ being scaled up... or on a basis for each full 1,000 points after 2,000. I just don't want to mess with magic for standard sized...

    Sick feeling playing Tomb Kings

    I still think our skeletons are worth it. Easier to raise, for a 15 point power, we can take them beyond their starting number too. So while they might have two blocks for our one roughly... we can focus the magic on the single block and bump it up several dice worth of models before the game...

    Using non GW parts for conversions and playing at GW?

    If you look at the 'ard boyz rules, conversions were fine as long as the majority of it was Citadel. I'm looking at the Malifaux Victorian street lamps for my display board for my VC. I've used random little plastic pieces that are not even from a line of minis, they're from these... I think...

    Storm of Magic - discussion thread

    RE: Storm of Magic, next month - confirmed Personally I hope they DON'T change magic. Magic is amazing as it is. Set aside some really nasty spells, and magic is PERFECT. No longer do you need to invest hundred of points and multiple characters in magic defense, just for the sake of magic...

    Chaos Dwarfs

    Personally I love them, and what rules I have seen (on their own site) I love. If you look at the trial rules they mention the "Legion of Azgorh" which I presume is a CD army list. I'm looking at my Chaos Dwarf army lovingly right now, but I could happily add the Infernal Guard to my army...

    Emergency Theme Testing

    I do not know if this is for the back up, or the main theme, but I tried clicking "Mark All Messages Read" on the main forum and it gave me an error "Authorization Code Mismatch". Just thought it may be useful info. Keep up the hard work! :)

    Carpe Noctem Site Overhaul: Shutdown Sunday 1600 BST

    I admit, at first I was a bit wary of the theme, but I am warming up to it quickly. It is nice. I do wonder if you also have a "poor/low vision" theme available in case someone needs it? I personally don't, but it may be something to consider as an optional theme for people.

    What Got You Into Gaming?

    My dad got me into historical games when I was only nine years old. We started with American Civil War games (Fire & Fury and Ironclads). Both very fun games. I did mostly historicals for a long time. Eventually picked up these non-historical games: Full Thrust (space combat game you pervs!)...

    Weather Woes

    In my homestate, Wisconsin the weather can be... something short of insane. One day might be 88 degrees, the next we may have a blzzard that drops over a foot of snow. We even have a saying "Only in Wisconsin can you from heating, to AC, and back to heat in the same day". Coldest I've...

    Go big or go home?

    I've been playing VC since 2005, and while I think it is tough for us, I would not rule out Skeletons either. They do need to be taken large. I actually shun the Ghouls. While they may be T4, they have no armor save. A skeleton, has a 5+ armor, and 6+ perry. Their saves more than make up for...

    Combat lord effective? Drakenhoff mandatory?

    To me durability is more important than killing power. I put my Lord in Great Weapon wielding Grave Guard, with a BSB with Drakenhoff. The Grave Guard also have Banner of the Barrows. The unit and BSB have plenty of killing power as it is. I swear by the Blood Drinker, though I will note Red...

    Lest We Forget

    I do give thanks to our ANZAC allies in the World War, Korea, and other conflicts. Especially during WWII, they fought for my freedom as much as my fellow Americans.

    What would you like to see in our 8th ed Army Book...

    What I'd like to see: Skeletons on par with cost for the TK. Finally horders of Skeleton troops will be possible! Skeleton Crossbows. While not as reliable to hit as the TK archers, they'll have range and sting when they hit. Cheaper Black knights. Not a big drop in cost, but it'd help. Get...
