Captain Semper Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Well, since AT is a new game I personally would like to keep y options open and not commit to one Legio. I mean there is nothing to differentiate the legions other than colour scheme, so for me every Maniple, different Legio. So Xestobiax. :) or Vulpa... :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supe robot gangster #1 Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 Here is a rough idea of what a Xestobiax machine would look like. And this is why I will not be using this reaver in my maniple :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 A pity for the difference in scale, because the old sculpt seems quite well made... oh well.. Xestobiax colours look very nice indeed! You can use it as a prototype to test the colour scheme and see if it suits you. If not you have an out-of-scale Xestobiax Reaver. If yes, it could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supe robot gangster #1 Posted September 21, 2018 Author Share Posted September 21, 2018 So. As the title change implies. I shall be running these as Xestobiax. For a few reasons. 1. I play 1k sons in heresy, so it fits there! 2. There has been issues with funding, so I need to change my maniple to a more Xestobiax setup. As a result I will be using, for now, gryphonicus rules, to better represent Xestobiax’s preference for reavers and a general disdain for scout class titans. So my maniple will now look like this. Warlord Titan Carapace apocalypse missile launchers Two bellicosa volcano cannons Warlord titan Carapace paired laser blasters Macro-Gatling blaster Arioch power claw Reaver Titan Carapace apocalypse missile launcher Laser blaster Reaver power fist Reaver Titan Carapace apocalypse missile launcher Melta cannon Reaver power fist Reaver Titan Carapace warp missile support rack Volcano cannon Gatling blaster As it’s a Friday here, and the kids spend the night at the in-laws on Friday nights I can get some paint on plastic, I shall put the fruits of my labour on display when I finish up for the night!

Captain Semper Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Look forward to it! Get this Reavers rolling! :D Have you thought of the tactical role of each unit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achinadav Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Woot, paint! The old titan really does fit looks wise. I didn't appreciate that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Idaho Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 That old Reaver still looks great though. Great choice for a Titan Legion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supe robot gangster #1 Posted September 22, 2018 Author Share Posted September 22, 2018 Not much. But here is a slight update. Son is sick so I didn’t get any time at all to do anything. I managed to get some work done on my reaver, but you can’t really see it due to shoddy kitchen lighting (I do have a sun light somewhere, i’ll have to find it) and I also got around to assembling a knight. Any suggestions on what house he could be? Im thinking either malinax, because of transfers, or possibly vornheer, as quartered yellow and red looks sick! Suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Captain Idaho Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Wait wait wait... epic scale Sicarians? Cataphractii? What's going on? Why has my world been turned upside down? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supe robot gangster #1 Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 Wait wait wait... epic scale Sicarians? Cataphractii? What's going on? Why has my world been turned upside down? :) Where did I get them from? Well “I can’t say” :p I haven’t gotten a lot done since the last update, I’ve been distracted by 28mm WWII models :p but I did manage to figure out where I went wrong with the feet. Idiotically I glued the lower legs on the wrong way around, which is why the armour plates didn’t line up with the feet properly. Oh well. Lesson learned. At least when I get around to doing my Mortis maniple i’ll assemble them correctly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I know, the Reavers seem to be a bit more tricky than the Warlords... Although I made my said share of mistakes on my Warlord too... :P Your maniple seems to be getting up to speed though - let's see some pics!
