Guild Monkee

When does this close for entries? Also, you might want to think about putting some restrictions on the fancy dress, what with the terror tots being tackle out and all.

This forum! There's a lot to be said for having a large number of really good painters dishing out endless painting tips. Since joining my painting has gone from offensively bad to only mildly awful.

I think it's good that Wyrd are producing alternative models, it's giving people the chance of having models they like for each crew. That way there's less chance of avoiding a crew that might play in a way that you like just because you don't like the model. They're never going to produce minis that everyone likes so they're doing the next best thing by giving options.

I terms of putting things together the guild masters in the original rule book are as easy as it comes to put together although if you have a bit of patience most other sets aren't to bad (except Ramos' set, they're a pain in the arse!). I wouldn't worry too much about the painting, you aren't going to be decent straight away, my early models loked like they were painted by a 5 year old on a rollercoaster. As you get better you can always just strip your earlier stuff and repaint them. There's plenty of guides online, best thing to do is read a guide and just have a go. It doesn't matter what the final product looks like, as long as you enjoy have a go.

Samael Hopkins is a good option to add for some reasonable ranged damage, the combo of flaming bullets and rapid fire works well. The executioner is normally better with numerous weaker targets like the undead. For 25SS I normally run; Lady J Scales of justice Executioner Samael Hopkins The Judge Doesn't leave you a great SS cache and can leave you outnumbered but I've found it does the job, not lost with that combo so far.

Looking good, can't wait to see what you do witht eh rest of the crew!

Cheers fellas, just wanted to check I wasn't cheating, a successful slaughter is only fun if it's all fair and above board!

I had a game with my mate the other day and my executioner was killed in melee with a rotten belle (he had 1 remaining wound and def 1 at the time!). As his slow to die action I did a melee against the belle and finished her off. My question is if you kill somebody in a melee as your slow to die action, does love the job kick in and heal all wounds or does he just die?
