Got quite a bit of hobby time in over the weekend, and dived in to the Dark Angels – still sorting out the army list for Adepticon, and it seems as thought I ended up painting several things that I’m not going to be taking out there with me after all… Argh! The Nephilim fighter is a case in point. I knew as soon as I saw the model that I had to build and paint one, it was just too cool not to! However, it turns out the rules and points for it are a little underwhelming – the armament is a little too light to effectively deal with opposing flyers (other than the single twin-linked lascannon), and at 180 points it’s pretty darn expensive.
Puppets War has released a new speeder kit and an upgrade kit to convert the speeder into more of a Storm Talon.
Hey guys, So I know there’s been a lot of mixed thoughts with the new Storm Talon kit that’s come out recently, particularly with the model. The biggest point, though, is that the model is intended for Codex: Space Marines, as opposed to all Power Armour codices, including Chaos Marines. Now, my first argument against everyone getting the Storm Talon is the Land Speeder Storm, Thunderfire Cannon, and the Storm Raven. Armies like Blood Angels and Space Wolves would do well with a Land Speeder Storm (though the Wolves don’t really need it!), Forge World allows most Marines to get a Thunderfire Cannon, and on a Land Raider chassis, no less. As for the Storm Raven, there’s plenty of players out there that have done one in their chapter colors, from Ultramarines to Alpha Legion.
Well, Beast of War released interesting info on the upcoming Flyers release from Games Workshop.
