They'll be scouting out your sarlac pit.

Haha I was actually thinking scout bikers.

Mark, I think your pleasure barge will find Ian's pit first.

I have trouble fielding it in 1500 point game as its so many points off the table on turn 1 and even with it being an assault vehicle, the soonest you can get a charge in is turn three. I'm just having trouble with the logistics of playing it in my head.

turn one.. nuthin
turn two. hopefully make reserve roll. fly on, get really close to something that i want to charge with my payload.... kill some xenos with big guns... maybe
turn three. go into hover mode, move 6 in, discharge payload... payload hopefully rolls good on charge range.

its that time between turn 2 and 3 that worries me. since your move onto the table is going to be excedingly obvious as to where your assault troops are going, it gives your opponent a turn to respond.

It is the same problem I have with Storm Ravens for either BT or GK. Really cool flier with some awesome rules. But minimum turn three for stuff to happen. And that doesn't include the "oh fuck" if you get shot down with either interceptor or on your opponents turn 3. With how scary the stuff inside is, probably going to catch all the AA fire and a lot of snap shots as well.

the trick is to just run 2 baledrakes a vendetta and a storm eagle at the same time so that your buss is the least of his worries...

Aegwymourn Fri Nov 08, 2013 4:54 pm

Just another reminder today is the last day to add to the order. Check the master list on the first page to make sure I have everything you want, it's a larger order and I don't want to miss anything.

da bear Sun Nov 10, 2013 9:23 am

I sent you another pm last night but ether way add a iron hands squad to my list please

dusktiger Sun Nov 10, 2013 10:28 am

just figured i'd toss this site out to you guys in case it has everything you guys are ordering in stock: forgeworld discount

i've bought from them before and they take the time to do some quality control on the bits they ship out. they even manage to stock some of the OOP special edition models. they dont carry any books though.

judchic Sun Nov 10, 2013 11:53 am

So they resin cast 40k and forgeworld stuff and sell it? How has GW not attacked them?

Aegwymourn Sun Nov 10, 2013 12:17 pm

A word of caution. There was recently a post on BoLS about someone similar (or the same I don't know) and the dude got ripped off hard.

Anyone who claims to be selling Forgeworld at a discount is either selling at a loss or recasting and illegally selling. Forgeworld only does direct orders and does not sell to intermediate parties.

da bear Sun Nov 10, 2013 12:18 pm

They are just copies of the originals so they most likely are not concerned since they are cheep copies and they do t offer they same combo deals as forge world does

judchic Sun Nov 10, 2013 12:47 pm

It's obvious they recast. Several are games day only figs and some are plastic models recast into resin (here's looking at the chaplain from the new plastic combo box and the dark vengeance chaplain).
Forgeworld might not have the best quality control but their customer service is godlike.

judchic Mon Nov 11, 2013 8:52 pm

order placed, total £436.00

Planes Mon Nov 11, 2013 8:54 pm

Damn, that comes to just over $730 right there.

judchic Mon Nov 11, 2013 9:13 pm

before gougin- i mean taxes.

GingerBalls Tue Nov 12, 2013 12:52 pm

How long can we expect for delivery?

judchic Wed Nov 13, 2013 1:39 pm

Just got the email saying they shipped but not the tracking email yet. Normally 2-3 weeks I think.

Planes Wed Nov 13, 2013 1:46 pm

Woot! That means my Nightlords should be done and painted in time for Christmas!

GingerBalls Wed Nov 13, 2013 2:46 pm

Can you post the tracking number when you get it?

judchic Wed Nov 13, 2013 4:05 pm

I'll just keep it updated.
On a side note it looks like it might come with a voucher for free shipping on another order up until January. If that happens and anyone was after anything else after Christmas might have a chance for a smaller order.

dusktiger Wed Nov 13, 2013 6:18 pm

just remember that those vouchers theyre handing out are only valid is you call the order in. its not valid for online orders. they sent me an email about them last week.

john549 Thu Nov 14, 2013 3:09 am

As someone who allegedly made three orders from FW discount I could in theory say this about them.... Sketchy as balls but they've never dicked a guy around other then the freebee said guy got wasn't what it was supposed to be. Sucked but it was free so meh. The quality is decent at least on what ive seen so far.. allegedly... lol.

judchic Wed Nov 20, 2013 1:16 pm

So just got the tracking number at 2am this morning.

Saskatoon, SK, Canada 11/19/2013 9:02 P.M. Arrived late at destination city. Delivery is rescheduled.

Well, Forgeworld for the weekend anyone?
Stupid fast delivery this time.
