Warhammer 40k: Megathread V1 - FOR THE EMPEROR - Games

I mainly want to play Exterminatus because I really don't feel like ranking up through the MP. It just feels like a chore to get good armor because of how the maps are. They need a fucking SDK for the PC version.

There's too few unlocks in my opinion and there are only like six to ten maps.

JESUS CHRIST these are fucking tiny.

Map count is 5 and I've never played one of them for some reason.

[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;32673654]JESUS CHRIST these are fucking tiny.[/QUOTE] Well the Tau [i]are[/i] midgets, you know.

I don't get why I never have gotten Hab center in public matches. It's usually all bridge, the one really cramped map inside and the one with the center cap point that revolves in the center of basically a giant circle.

[QUOTE=Nikota;32673642]What. No there isnt. There's only maybe 4 maps. I think its actually 3.[/QUOTE] Well there's these maps: Waste Management, Shattered Bridge, Manufactorum, Basilica and Hab Center.

[QUOTE=Hoboharry;32673909]Well there's these maps: Waste Management, Shattered Bridge, Manufactorum, Basilica and Hab Center.[/QUOTE] The thing is, they're all just not that great. If they released an SDK the game would sell a fuck ton more and if they had more PC features. [editline]7th October 2011[/editline] What really pisses me off is how a lot of the content from the earlier builds will probably be recycled into the MMORPG instead of being put into this game.

[QUOTE=Hoboharry;32673909]Well there's these maps: Waste Management, Shattered Bridge, Manufactorum, Basilica and Hab Center.[/QUOTE] One of those I have no played yet. A lot of the time it just cycles between Hab Centre, Waste Management, and that one map that has lava under the floors for no reason. Edit: Anyways, people, I am soon going to finish a 100x100 square of cobblestone on Minecraft. I will, once it's finished, save it and back it up. I can then have instantaneous flat ground, so I can build a fuck-ton of big structures on it without filling it up too quick. What kind of WH40K structure should I build first? I was thinking of trying the Golden Throne, or maybe an Emperator Titan.

I got my Blood bowl today, shit is so damn cash

The painted model came out alright for a first try I guess. I tried to paint the pieces first. next one I'm going to build it than paint it.

It is decided. I am going to put Cult Mechanicus on my dog tags. Praise the Omnissiah!

I was REALLY taken by surprise at how small these are. How do people fucking paint these? The paint is constantly too thin so it doesn't spread even and the colors under it show through. But you can't put a big drop on either or it'll go all over the place. [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/photo310.JPG[/img]

But hey, at least you gave them some nice details. Woe is going to betide me once I'll actually get to start IG army.

I think I need to paint them in pieces first. I can't see myself doing a decent job with them already made so I'll break the one I already made back into pieces tomorrow and paint it. Screw details though. Brown uniform, yellow armor and black symbol/eyes. That's all I need, looks fine from a distance and that's all you need anyway. I kind of like this. I may have to get more.

[QUOTE=richard9311;32674774]A giant Imperial Aquila out of gold blocks?[/QUOTE] Eh, a bit too easy. I'm looking for a project that'll occupy me for a while. [editline]8th October 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Hoboharry;32674750]You could maybe try making a battle barge or imperial fleet?[/QUOTE] Maybe. I'm thinking of going with the Titan. It'll be a bit easier to make the big town-thingy on the back since I don't know what the interior of a battle-barge looks like.

[QUOTE=DaysBefore;32675715]A full scale Hive.[/QUOTE] Not a bad idea, but I don't really have THAT much space. I mean, it's a grand area, it's big enough for a city to be built on it (that was my original intention), but a whole Hive would just be... That's why I went for the Titan. So most of it is elevated enough that I won't have to worry about anything but the feet.

Is there anyway to paint details? Like the black outlines in the slit between the armor plates. (I know for that I shold do a base coat of black and not paint over it but that's hard for me to do) Or eyes. Toothpick and paint for example?

A one hair brush?

Get a 3/0 brush (And a really steady hand) for tiny things like eyes. Of course, I'm not RayvenQ, but that's how I'd do it.

Also Codemonkey feel free to slow way the fuck down. I only have a few models finished as they take days (and my attention span is crap so I haven't done many even though I own a ton and have had them for years), and even then they don't come out that great. Just take your time
