Oh man, they're sweet!
Yeah I’m so happy, I missed them when they last did a special run so jumped on them when I saw the auction.
They’ll probably do another run now

I hate those special runs, but equally would probably buy a crate full if they done another run of those old metal Daemonettes.Yeah I’m so happy, I missed them when they last did a special run so jumped on them when I saw the auction.

Gw have a new line of "contrast" paint coming out. Looks like hexwraith flame kinda stuff but in a full range of colours for quickly painting armies.
Very interested, could help blast through a backlog of stuff like poxwalkers.
It looks absolutely amazing for smashing out rank and file troops. I might finally start a gobbo army
Yeah i'm very tempted to do some goblins now, seen the contrast stuff used on the Mangler Squigs as well and it looked good even on that big of a model. Probably focus on my beasts first though as i've seen a Gor done with just contrast stuff that looked really good too!
I've been tempted by the Blood Angel one myself but not caved yet! Do you have to paint them yourself?
The squigs did look especially good to be fair, gonna get me a squig horde.
Nah they come painted so purely decoration, definitely go grab one
I've so much shit to do, and they have the temerity to keep brining out more shit I want.
Feckers.
I was *this* close to buying a bunch of Eldar, Halequins and Drukhari the other day to start a collection of Yinnead, since I have the Triumvirate(unpainted, of course, ).I know.
I “accidentally” started a Drukhari army the other day as if I didn’t have enough to paint
These did happen today, though...
I was planning on doing just that, but then someone said pick something out for your birthday and we'll get it for you. I picked the Nighthaunt, and since I was the one that had to order it anyway, "you know, I may as well pick some bits up..."
As bad as me man!
I'm holding off on anything until these contrast paints though, hopefully they'll be super useful for me to get a load of stuff painted quickly!
Awwwww yeah!
I kinda miss the pewter/white metal minis. The weight of them feels premium. Probably because back when I started on LOTR, all the soldiers were plastic and heroes metal.
I used to do that to all the heroes I kitbashed from plastic units back then.Yeah there’s for sure something about them, we must have started at a similar time. Heroes and the special troops were nice metal.
I’m always tempted to glue washers or something into the bases of my plastic ones for a bit of weight
Ffs my backlog is huge
Yeah same. Can't paint either atm due to a bleed on the brain during an operation leaving me weak on right hand side but I am still picking up a bunch of stuff I don't really need right now!
Ah that’s a shit sorry to hear that, suppose you can justify it by considering it motivation to push forward with recovery right
Ahhh, shite, man, that's horrible.Yeah same. Can't paint either atm due to a bleed on the brain during an operation leaving me weak on right hand side but I am still picking up a bunch of stuff I don't really need right now!
You bastard.As if GW weren’t releasing enough I just discovered Discworld Miniatures so that’s not great for me
You bastard.
Ahhh, shite, man, that's horrible.
Oh my god, they're amazing, love Cohen the Barbarian too. Well, feck, I love them all!https://discworld.com/products/miniatures/ Muuahahahaha
I’ve started with just Hogfather, Pixie Albert and Rincewind on the way. Nanny Ogg on the broomstick is wild though
Hopefully you recover quickly.Cheers. Yeah not great but could have been much worse!

I used to play lots of 40k in school. Just started browsing the GW site (while trying to ignore the CL final).
What’s this Kill Team game? Looks interesting. I presume the rules are more intricate than a typical 40k battle given the smaller numbers on each side?
It’s pretty cool if you don’t have the time anymore for full 40k armies and the like. It’s basically a skirmish game and if you don’t play with the recent expansions all the rules you need are contained in the one book so you don’t need a separate codex for each different army which is nice.
Rules wise it’s actually not that complex I don’t think, you take it in turns to play individual models rather than one person getting to play their whole army in one turn.
It’s fun to play as the games aren’t as long as 40k and you can do some cool campaigns with people, like you can with Necromunda.
I like the sound of that for the reasons you've mentioned. Moving just one model per turn changes the dynamic quite a lot.
I remember Necromunda first being released in some White Dwarf editions in the early 90s but it never became a proper game at the time. Loved the premise, developing gang members over time and such. I started playing it with my mates but the rule set was only half baked so couldn’t make it work. Played that Joe?
Less burnout, and more interest/addiction, but I've been picking up some proxy stuff, and some other games here and there too. Just got a few charachters from Wild West Exodus because steampunk Abe Lincoln. Also got Bass Reeves and Jesse James.Yep they really are cool, I’ve been looking for something different to GW recently as a bit burnt out so these could be perfect
It's getting incredibly popular, and very quickly too. Between the small model count meaning you can spend time on each or build a unit quickly, and a quick game time. I read it takes something like 40 minutes for a game, which would be just enough time for the board setup on 40k.I used to play lots of 40k in school.

If I recall correctly, the new Necromunda's been made a bit more approachable rules-wise, too?I think I did something similar with my mates, we played sort of home brew rules so never played properly. They rereleased it not long ago and it’s well supported, I’ve actually got a gang I’m in the process of building at the moment but haven’t actually played the new games yet.
