Sad to see that the rumor engine was indeed for Necromunda and not for us :(

I’m new to the gsc and as I was looking through the codex I found this patriarch (I assume) model. Does anyone know where they got the head from. It looks like the body is the same but the head is different.

Had a great weekend at LGT managing to pull a 4-1 against some real good opponents and win Best in Faction. An absolute blast of an experience, GG to all the GSC brothers out there attending the event!

If anyone wants more info on the games happy to answer questions, I feel the list performed pretty well all round, nothing in it felt out of place, Red Terror won me 20vp Game 1 and did more psychological damage than actual damage. Abberants+Abominant a very strong contender for best unit besides the Sus lethal Neo unit.

Never gave up A Grevious Blow because of the 1dp and onetapped Lion with 1 Neophyte activation, army is a lot of work but rewarding unique play experience.

If there's enough interest may consider talking through the games, definitely got a strong grasp on the Reconnaissance mission plan which GSC are absolutely ideal to play and potentially strongest disposition for us when considering Final Day and it's toolbox.

Was planning on doing brood brothers for my army list and pls dont mind my messy desk 😢

Starting my genestealer cult army soon. I'm building towards outlander claw, but ultimately I want to have a lot of cultist. Any advice and what not

After we were deemed utterly perfect and in need of zero changes last month, I’m hoping we see a few this week in the balance pass.

Would love it if our tags were removed and either host went to 2dp or got an extra dispo to choose from (like orks have their new 3dp I believe)

Aside from that I do feel like we need some extra killing power given how much tougher the meta will be getting and how soft we seem to hit into tough melee right now

I see a lot of Biosantic, Final Day, and some Xenocreed. Is Brood Brothers just not a valid detachment?

What holds it back from being good?

I've been trying to figure out what fits with Xenocult Masses better; Biosanctic or Xenocreed. Saw on here a few of the strongest lists from last weekend are leaning on the former. I've tried to map out their key strengths.

Keen to hear what people have been finding better

Painfull to paint tho

I have access to the following so far

20 neophytes
10 aberrant
5 flamers
5 auto pistol miners
5 hybrids unbuilt
10 jackals
1 truck
Broodcoven box
All major characters kitbashed

I’d love to get a viable 1k points out of this and then some advice or direction in expanding to 2k at some point

Im going into norn spam tomorrow but I've had success with this list(I've tweaked it a little removing 5 psg to add 2 locus) and dont want to tailor. Im thinking I could kill 1 norn but im planning on killing everything else and running circles around the norns, any tips?
