  1. Neverborn, eh? Fun! I've never messed around with them at all. And you should definitely look into Yan Lo, if nothing else his box has some great stuff to work with Nicodem. Grave Spirit+Izamu+Bolster Undead would be scary...

    Yeah, I need some mindless zombies, but I have empty bases for that (seeing as how I got 8 of them in a single game, would have been 10 but I summoned a Flesh Construct before that). I almost picked up Izamu, but my Kirai player wanted him, so I let him get it :)

  2. No, it's fine. Sorry for jumping on you about it, mate. So, what faction do you play, then? Arcanists?

    You guys didn't jump on me, the thread moved faster than I was checking lol and so the questions stacked up with each refresh... And I mainly play Neverborn, mostly Pandora, Lynch, and Dreamer... but I have Nicodem, Molly, and McMourning boxes, Bette Noir, an Extra Flesh Construct, 6 canine remains, grave spirit, and I think one or two other pieces. I accumulated quite the ressers collection over the past month.

  3. I thought spirit damage halved rounding up? So it would be 8 damage, as 9 would halve to 5.

    Still, he's a monster, and a great model. He's got to join my little pile sooner or later!

    Huh, no one has ever corrected me on my rounding...

    But still, 9 and 10 damage would still get you all the way down to 1 damage.

  4. With Kirai he'll be a tank...Lost Love, turn him into a Spirit, heal him up, you have a 10 Wound, Object 2 Spirit that is taking half damage and subtracting 2 from almost every attack.

    Someone had pointed out that any non-magical damage less than 9 meant that Izamu would take 1 damage as a spirit. 9 divided in half = 4.5 rounded down to 4 minus 2 from Object and minus 2 from Armor = min 1 damage...

  5. I quite enjoy the game. Seems too complex at first, then you just realize it doesnt matter cause everyone can die to anything

    It also comes from the fact that I am cursed to be the eternal demoer... I'm more likely to jump into a game and play it than other friends, so I tend to buy the rules and two starter boxes... I have plenty of minis that I don't play anymore... Also the type of army I want to make is very possible, but I don't like the aesthetics of the models I would have to play with.

  6. I had my first game in a while last week, amazing how quickly it all came back to me :)

    Good old Colette and the Girls soon showed Pandora the error of her ways, heheh.

    Pandora just wants you to think that *wink* A master illusionist Colette might be, but what your showgirls don't know is that they're still trapped within Pandora's shattered reality :).

  7. Alf, DA still rely on the Allies chart printed in the BRB. They also messed up by not allowing Guard and Nids to ally for Genestealer Cults, so it's nothing new with them messing up to have dedicated Fallen lists based on CSM and DA :( In my local groups, if it's for fluffy reasons like Stealer Cults and Fallen we allow it in friendly games though. After all, the game is primarily supposed to be played for fun :) I am sure more mess ups can be found if you look closely at the matrix closely. I am pretty sure some of the Allies of Convenience and Desperate \Allies should be the other way around.

    Oh yeah, I knew of the Allies Matrix, just didn't know if there was a specific one in the DA Codex, which would be an interesting thing. I think it would be cool to see codex specific allies. Like Chaos can't ally with DA via their Codex (as a main detachment), but DA as a main detachment could take Chaos as their allies. But in a friendly environment it doesn't matter. To be fair though, I dislike that Grey Knights and Necrons can ally up...

  8. Alf, that first paragraph in the link is not even in the codex, looks like it was a misprint in the ebook, lol!

    Allies matrix states that DA and CSM< can't ally, but in friendly games I'd imagine people would allow it.

    Yeah, that's interesting that GW messed that up, I wish it was a misprint in dead trees version, it would make that 60 dollars a little easier to swallow. Also, in friendly games I don't think so either, I didn't know if the DA codex gave a "specific" Ally Matrix that allows them to switch up the matrix for them specifically.

  9. Not spotted the VC typo in there, do you know what page number and where about on the page it is? I have read the entire codex and didn't spot it, lol.

    It's in a paragraph at the top of a section about how they're keepers of secrets. Idk if it's in the printed version, but the eBook version on page 42 has references to Vampire Counts and Empire: Linky

    Fallen can work with CSM thanks to the allies rules (in fact you can build that army with just the CSM list), but I wish they'd put Cypher in the DA codex, grr.

    Is there a special "allies" chart that says you can ally DA with CSM? :)

  10. Love the worm. Poor Lelu still looks stupid although it's not the paint that's the problem.

    Thanks! Yeah, I agree about the Lelu sculpt, I feel as though he needs to take his tail and turn it into a bullhorn as though he were initiating a viking charge, but oh well :)

    Though I do like how the skin tones came out on Lelu, I think that I found a set of red paints that works well for me :), don't tell anyone that they're GW paints lol *grin*. And I like Lilitu's hair, found a nice way to get her hair that way.

  11. It's good, kinda feels like I got the shaft on my weekend since I was busy Saturday with my event, and I did nothing but paint yesterday. So I woke up today, and was like, "is it Sunday?" My day has been like that lol *grin*

    I've been updating my "How much money does Alf waste on wargaming?" number, and I'm at 325 for the year... it's not even halfway through the month >_<
