My paint plan for those visors....

Use existing Necron Transfers to put circuitry in the depression, topped off with a thin layer of metallic paint, then filled in with a water effect.

That's a good sounding idea. I may do something similar- flat black, with one of the small old necron runes in one eye socket as a targeting reticle.

Next week's White Dwarf:

Next weeks white dwarf has an exclusive formation that combines Skitarii, a Knight and Cult Mechanicus to an all AdMech army.


The previews for next week say:

Both priest units are S and T3 and start off with 5 models per squad. their shields give them a 5++ and allow them to assault through cover, but with an I3 it doesnt really matter much. What does help these guys is that they hammer of wrath at s4.

The main difference between the two units is an electric staff or electric gauntlets. The staff is +2 strength AP4 and the gauntlets +1 strength and are both shooting and melee- you have to choose one or the other-. The fulgurites with the staves can get a 3++ if they wipe out a unit in close combat for the rest of the game.

The tech priest can either repair a hull point-vehicle damage, or heal a wound in his unit. is an independent character with a 2+ save and 3 wounds, feel no pain, and relentless. He also comes with a 5++ and wielding a power axe. He can fire on the move with an upgraded eradication ray, which is a heavy 1 s8 ap1 or a s6 ap3 blast

Well, we know some Guard regiments have closer ties to the Mechanicus than others, 'cos they can get hold of genuine Mars-pattern Baneblades while others have to make do with second-generation knockoffs like the Macharius. And we know that some existing Guard toys are armed with weapons difficult or impossible to reproduce or repair; the existence of the Stormsword and Thunderer are entirely due to Shadowsword and Destroyer chassis outliving their guns. So... I don't think it's entirely impossible.

Mr Mystery
05-19-2015, 03:04 PM
Just don't see the Incinerator surviving.

Being arguably the most common Volkite armed vehicle (so far!) given the size of the Solar Auxilia alone, it would be the first on the chopping block to provide spare parts for 'more important' stuff, and likely all remaining examples recalled, stolen or salvaged back to the Forgeworld's for their own purposes.

At least, that's my rationale!

Houghten
05-19-2015, 03:15 PM
Being arguably the most common Volkite armed vehicle is all the more reason for a handful of them to slip through the cracks. ;)

The Electro-priests aren't really my thing but I still think they are very well done and objectively look great! I'm tempted to get some anyway and convert them, get rid of the legs and replace them with cables giving off electrical discharges and also sculpt wires coming out of their eyes and mouths.

The Tech-priest dominus however is totally my thing and will definietly pick one up to add to me void-dragon mechanicus cult!

The models are mostly all micro art studios "iron brotherhood". I personally prefer them as most of them have the trailing cables instead of legs look which I really really like.

These are the tracekd ones, they are WAY smaller than the new Kataphrons though. They'd fit on a 32mm base. Personally I will probably buy the new kataphrons to replace them.

These are probably my favourite. I love how tall they are, makes you wonder what is under the robes.

I agree though, the good thing with mechanicus is you can go as crazy and weird as you want, theres no limit as you can justify anything to be the tase of the tech-priest/magos that leads your army.

EDIT : they used to have ones with wings, but I can't find them on the shop anymore :/

Well, I will be definitely ordering the Codex, tech-priest magos and a few boxes of the Kataphrons and then necronising the whole lot! Looking forward to reading the backround too. It's an interesting way to introduce a new army, doing it in two halves like this, I'd speculate they will probably combine them in a year or so and add some more kits.

I know right? It's one of the best they've done in years for me, personally. It perfectly captures Blanche's weirdness. I didn't relaise it was so big either, 50mm base! The price makes more sense now. I hope later down the line they do a troops choice that has more of this weirdness (like the Scylla).

yeah, I love the spider-legs, they look really creepy too. Just need the trailing cables I keep moaning about to be represented and I'm set :P

Damn that's a lot of minis, I always found I felt overwhelmed if I bought lots of stuff in one go like that and they end up not getting painted so I have to fight my temptations and only buy 1 or 2 boxes these days and make sure they get painted before I do any more.

The manipulator arms on the Breacher Guns are ball and socket. The only linked bit between the torso and tracks is the waist, so fairly straight forward to re angle them and that :)

Other manipulator arms appear to attach via a semi circle shaped bit, so probably not that reposable.

I'm wondering if there's been a removal of creative restraints at GWHQ, and how long ago it occurred.

It is of course tempting to jump to a conclusion and say 'when the CEO changed', except that was relatively recently. Granted I'm no expert, but my understanding of GW's creative process would suggest a much longer lead time than the few months since the changing of the reins.

Harlequins, Mechanicus, and rumours (salty as I consider them) of Genestealer cults, and it's like sad old duffers such as myself having all their Christmases come at once....

Whatever the trigger (quite possibly the drop in takings) I'm powerful chuffed at the new toys were getting to play with. Not only are the models fantastic, but the rules are suitably characterful. It's an exciting time to be a GW Nerd, spesh with 9th Ed Warhammer seemingly just around t'corner.

For instance, Forgeworld commented that they wanted to put a Solitaire in IA11 (2011) but where told to leave Harlequins alone. Does that mean Harlequins were on a to-do list, or in a holding pattern back then, etc?

Equipment
Carachters may purchase a Stasis Field:
The bearer and the unit get a 2++ save as long as they are “Gone to Ground”, but the WS and BS are reduced to 0.

– The heavy grav cannon is Salvo 4/6. So a unit of 3 Kataphron Destroyers (165) shots 18 grav shots. Not bad at all.

There are 4 formations:
- Cohort Cybernetica
1x Dominus
2 Kastelan Robot Maniples
Kastelan protocols have an inmediate effect when chosen
For every Datasmith and Dominus one Robot may fire to a different target.
Dominus and the 2 maniples are a single unit. Dominus may not abandon the unit.

- Elimination Maniple
2-3 unitos of Kataphron Destroyers
1-3 Kastelan Robot Maniples
If one Robot inflincts one unsaved wound or a penetrating hit with a weapon with the Luminogen SR, the rest of the formation gains +1BS and ignore cover when firing to that unit.

- Numinous Maniple
2-3 units of Fulgurite Electro-Priests
2-3 units of Corpuscarii Electo-Priests
If a Corpuscarii unit is at 6″ or less of 1 or more Fulgurite unit, they gain +1 shot when firing. If one unit suffers one or more unsaved wounds, it is considered “electrified” until the end of turn.
If a Fulgurite units attacks in CC to an “electrified” unit, they reroll to wound

- Holy Requisitioner
1 Dominus
2-3 Kataphron Breachers
Deep Strike
They have to stay in Reserve. When deployed, the Dom¡nus does not scatter if deployed at 6″ or less of an objective marker. Breachers do not scatter as long as they arrive at 6″ or less of the Dominus.
They have the Zealot and Counterattack SR when at 6″ or less from a objective marker.

Some of these seem really powerful, especially those canticles. I think they apply to the Knight that can be taken in thei formation they have too. Very cool stuff
