Good day,

I am finally getting on the board.

I just completed a Necron Annihilation Barge:

I think this counts as a small vehicle so should net 5 points.

Thank you,

Ok, before points are updated this time I'd like to get a group opinion. Necron Destroyers should be 2 or 3 points? 2 because they're roughly the size of an ogre and not actually a rider and beast or 3 points because they are quite like cavalry with a centaur like appearance?

Speaking as the painter.. honestly I think they should be 2 points. Not 3. One seamless model...

Just to prove I'm not dead, as well as breathe some life into this again (not that I want to prod pork into painting more), here's a finished High Elf, who is a test model for my army's scheme.

What did you have in mind? Shall we replace his name in all of his trade refs with "Lazy McFancybottom"?

Gee.
I was just thinking about changing the Rank in his profile.
You're just plain playing dirty.


I like that. Reminds me of me.
