1st blood. So to speak.





12 Chaos warriors.

That looks like 24 models?

12. one with flash, 1 without.

I've been productive the past few days, I'm hoping to do my Khorne Warband this year so I've started assembling it. Here's what's completed:

8 blood warriors

8 points

5 wrathmonger and 5 skullreaper

20 points

4 heroes

7 points


35 points total

[MagickalMemories]

Why is it 7 points for 4 heroes? I can't make that math work. : )

[akum]

3 terminator size, one smaller

Yes the one on the left Valkia is on a 32mm base and all the rest are bigger and on 40mm bases. Thanks for checking my math though, you never know

[3eland]

It's funny because all of them are around the same size yet have different point values. I'd say Valkia is 2 points not 1.

[HawtFist]

I'm actually with 3eland - it's quite tall, and while girth is generally more important, length can also be valuable. I'd give it 2 points.

[warlordgarou]

Quick question - do the assembled models have to be attached to bases? I am putting together some KoW models, and, when I am done painting them, they will all be mounted on one big base. But until then, I am simply pinning them to temporary stands. (I suppose I could base them for the pic, then unbase them and start painting, but it's a pain to do that extra step.)

Your saying this model and not anything on a 32mm? If so, I do not see why not 2 points. If your saying 32mm is 2 points that would cause some problems with Mairnes being on both 32 and 25.

How is it played in game? One big base for a few small models or 1 model per base?

You can base models individually, but since units are (generally) 5 models wide, and either 2, 4 or 8 models deep, and you do not remove models for casualties, it makes sense to block mount (for example) all 10 Lesser Infernals on a 100mm x 40mm base. (If I wanted to do a full horde of them, I could mount all 40 of them on a base that was 100mm x 120mm) But if I mount them on the base before they are painted, it will make them much harder to paint.

I suppose I could just paint up 10 at a time, and submit them for points both here and in the painted thread at the same time.

[3eland]

@jason - that specific model in question. If you compare her to the others she should be the same value in points.

[hapotte]

It's true she's a big model, I just assumed that models on 20-25-32 mm bases where 1 point, I'm fine with 2 points though

That would be a total of 36 points then.

[akum]

OK more done, MAOR Sigmarines! Some in this pic were previously built (got in trade) ill list the ones I built:



3 Lord-Celestant Mounted 15pts
3 Lord-Relictor 6pts
9 Retributors 18 pts
20 Liberators 40 pts
9 Prosecutors 18 points
1 celestant prime ???? this dude is pretty baller any ideas on how much he is?
1 knight azyros 2

Total this build spree: 99+ Prime

[3eland]

I'd say between 6-8 points for the prime. It really is a pain to assemble and is huge. 8 would be my guess if you relate it to other things on the description.

I can see the points in this thread getting into the thousands.
