Warhammer (with the models and everything)

I've pre-ordered the new Legions Imperialis book. I kinda also want the new Necromunda stuff but I'm aggressively out of date at this point.

This trend for refusing to release rules without miniatures is infuriating. We all knew there'd be rules for Shadowswords, Stormswords and the other one. You could have just released a fucking unit listing book on day 1, and not drip fed £30 hardback books with rules for 3-4 units plus some special stuff like campaign rules and then fluff. It feels like the campaign rules n shit are about as well play-tested and of the same quality of things in Citadel Journal back in the day.

Old World and Blood Bowl are the only OK ones. New teams are in Spike, they release an annual every year compiling all the issues of Spike. Job done.

Old World there's 1 rulebook. Then army listings with everything that will be released in the future, that everyone knew was coming anyway. Then you can pay for an optional slim paperback of cool interesting variations for your particular army plus some extra fluff. Just do that for all the other things that are "Specialist Games". Necromunda rules are spread across so many out of print hard back books it's insane. FUCK EPUB.

It's kind of baffling that they've managed to do it for Old World and AoS...

The Sanguiniary Priest is awesome.

It's good that they give you helmets as options, because I don't like how this modeled hair looks. Space Marines without helmets is kind of silly anyway.

I am a bit jelly of that medic. It looks like it takes cues from the Apothecary Biologis but it’s so much cooler looking with a sword rather than a big thermos flask.

Risk: Warhammer is £25 at the moment on Amazon UK, which is apparently 41% off.

Tried to link but on mobile

That's the one

I can’t be bothered linking, it’s all at the Community site or if you prefer midlands based AI, at Auspex Tactics, but there’s some things and some stuff coming to pre-order this weekend for 40K.

Chiefly, the Inquisitorial battle forces, but they are also joined by a combat patrol, which I’m half considering.

Also that Sisters individual model with the silly flaming sword, re-releases of all the assassins (now with an extra 25 per cent RRP!) and that priest/bishop bloke and the Navigator.

There’s also some news about Deathwatch points which has gone down like a lead balloon as well as some consignments to legends in the same faction.

Absolutely gutted tonight and any advice would be appreciated.

I have 2x Blood Angels Combat Patrols.

I’ve been on an absolute mission to build the two boxes whilst the good weather is out and I’ve now got built and primed 2 librarians (giving one to a mate), 2 intercessor squads, an infiltrator squad, an incursor squad, 6 Aggressors, and 1 Impulsor.

All I have left to do is finish my second Impulsor.

But I’ve fucking lost something. Part number 30, to be precise, of which there are three. They are the ‘teeth’ on the hover pad but at the front under the nose. I saw it drop as I was trimming from the sprue, thought ‘I’ll get that in a second’, trimmed and secured the other two and started looking. It’s like it’s evaporated. After tea, I’ve been in, fully moved the table and chairs out after first fully tidying and inventorying the table top. I’ve turned the rug under the table, moved it out, scoured the floor underneath, the bottom of the rug and the top, and cleaned and hoovered everything. It isn’t there.

I’m honestly wondering if the dog would eat it.

But what the hell do I do about getting this one part? I’m the type that would rather throw away the model rather than have it look wrong.

And I’m sh*t at sculpting, so I can’t make one out of greenstuff.

Said it before and will say it again, I hate building.

I’ll try thanks. This is genuinely breaking the laws of physics. If only they gave you a spare for the tiny parts eh.

Thought I might be onto a winner for you with Rivos on eBay, but they don't have that particular part either.

EDIT:

Nothing on eggheadminiatures.com/ either, sadly.

Why greenstuff? Such simple parts can be built out of cardboard. Or is there some elaborate design on the other side?

60% off for the next hour and a half if anyone's interested:

Looks like this is the way. zagibu - I get it but I don’t really want cardboard on an expensive model I’ll put hours into painting.

I may reach out to GW customer service, but not hopeful.
