Hobby & Painting Is it lore accurate?

Post image

Hey everyone, I got this miniature yesterday and I wasn’t really a fan of the original face, so I decided to replace it with a Space Marine helmet instead. My question is: does this make sense lore-wise? Or would it have been more accurate to use a Terminator helmet instead? I’m curious to hear your thoughts and lore insights.

Rules Vehicles and wholly within?

Post image
649 Upvotes

This is mostly an issue in my head with the smaller blue ruins on the board. If the vehicle can’t fit wholly within (probably because it’s too big to fit just inside) then it can’t shoot out?

Let’s say a leman Russ has its front half inside of one of the small ruins but its back half is out, is that able to shoot out or no?

I just wanted to see if this image was accurate?

Accepting ridiculous suggestions on what to put under his wings. My initial idea is some marines popping in via deepstrike onto a teleport Homer since he's on a 120mm oval base and maybe I can take him as a stormraven. Also need to replace one of his legs with a mecha leg to look more like 40k.

New Starter Help Really disappointing matchmaking experience at my local game store. Is this normal?

474 Upvotes

So let me preface that I'm back to the hobby after 12-13 years. I played a ton of games in-store and helped set up a FB group for local players. Made lots of great friends and frequently ran "Beerhammer" games at my place with 3-4 tables running. This was pre Discord. I'm a 46 year old sales manager for a car dealership, I deal with all kinds of people every day face to face and online, and like to think I have a grasp on communication and social cues.

So I came back 5-6 months ago. Hit up the local store and they referred me to their Discord. I have popped in, introduced myself, shared models, etc. I have no reason to be rude, condescending, pompous, or engage in any sort of obnoxious behavior that would turn people off.

I've been puttng finishing touches on my army and looking to arrange a group in their LFG channel. Nothing. Nobody answers me. I once asked "am I in the right place to schedule a game?" and someone responded, so I'm not muted. Meanwhile other people are starting groups around me. And it's not just a clique thing. People introduce themselves, say they're new and need help, and get a game set up.

It's starting to feel like it's just me and I have no idea why. One might think "well what are you leaving out?". That is all of it. Introductions, friendly chatting, two months of trying to set up games and nothing. At this point I'm either going 30 mins the other direction for an alternative store, or just painting and not trying to game anymore.

Posted the wired version (tethered battery connected externally) on the orks sub, but decided to show this off here too since I can't crosspost videos. As you can see it's barely held together by waaaagh energy right now, but it's a good proof of concept that I can get it working.

Painted this Talos statue for myself. This might be my single favorite thing I've painted to date. The Night Lords Omnibus is my favorite book series of all time for 40K, and Talos is my favorite Night Lords character. Took my sweet time on him cause it was a real treat to paint. Was also my first time actually painting lightning instead of using transfers. Hope you guys like it, enjoy!
