You ever think you're finished with a model, and then be like "yeahhh, I don't like how that looks" and go back and change it. Decided against how I painted the acid gun and changed it a little bit, added more color and highlights to the acid sacs and realized in the process I forgot to paint a couple of the claws...

New Player Question First big building mistake since ive been back

Well I was proud of my Warriors till I read that the regular units cant use lashwhips, what now? I just finished painting a few days ago so I'd rather not break all 3 trying to correct a mistake. I was just reading up on the stats again and noticed that under melee options it only reads Claws and Talons

How badly did I mess up

- I dont plan on doing any tournaments so would I just say they are using a completely different loadout?

Competitive Play Don't 'un-battleshock' during Shadow of the Warp

17 Upvotes

Just wanted to confirm if an opponent passes a battle shock test at the end of their command phase because I popped Shadows, their unit doesn't UN-battleshock because technically it's not in the battle shock step right? Thanks in advance

I'm still pretty new to the hobby and have painted about 14 mini's so far. Now I'm pretty happy with the skin but I'm less excited about the carapace and I don't know how to shake it up.

What would be a good way to tie the carapace to the skin so they have a similar vibe if that makes sense.

Rant Just found out the prime with lashwhip has fleshhooks on the model but the rules dont have flesh hooks.

Post image
12 Upvotes

I know lictors also have flesh hooks in the lore and on the model but not in the data sheet. Why did the rules designers get rid of flesh hooks but the art team didn't. Also as a side note it annoys me that lictors in space marine 2 never use their flesh hooks to real in a player and pick them off isolated from their squad.

Thank you for listening to my rant about GW simultanously remembering a weapon exists and forgetting it exists.

Competitive Play Tyranid Warrior List

2 Upvotes

Hello all:)

its my first time posting on here so apologies for any mistakes. I‘m looking for advice on how to run Tyranid Warriors in the best way possible. I struggle to know which detachment to use with their detachment. Is there a standard one good to match it with? any advice on list building with them generally would be grand
