    Good to know!

    Also apparently Necron Knights are a thing... or at least they are some awesome conversions! ;)

    I've just close a deal.

    200 Euro (around 250 US, 175 GPB) for an Adeptus mechanicus army, fully painted at mid-high standard, composed by:

    Belisarius Cawl
    2 tech priest dominus
    20 skitarii vanguard (or maybe rangers? they have 2 snipers)
    2 dunecrawler
    2 kastellan robots
    1 datasmith
    5 sicarian infiltrators
    3 kataphron destroyers


    Soon i will field the allegiance Adeptus Mech / Iron Hands...

    I have too many ongoing projects and i simple don't have enough time.
    For once, a painted army is welcome

    I can understand that. Too many projects, not enough time.

    It's why I'm not mega promoting my business like I usually do. Give me a month or so of slow trickle orders so I can get some personal hobby time in.

    Lore question about Necrons out of curiosity:
    Are they heavy? I mean that metal they are made of. Or is it ultra-lightweight?

    Never stated. It's basically nanite metal so I'm going to guess it has the ability to change it's mass and density based on environment

    Ok thanks!
    I wondered because transporting a lot of very heavy individuals on a space ship sounds like an energetic nightmare to anyone thinking of physics.

    Yeah to be honest 40k technology doesn't sound too realistic to begin with so you can probably just say "technology, it works".

    I can't. The way they describe it they would be better off throwing those tho. Energy density and so on.

    Same thing I think. I'll have to look them up again and check the math though.

    3 of the most boring armies getting codices :argh:

    What about Orks and Genestealer Cults? They should at least get codices before Harlequins and Deathwatch.
