Filius Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Hjolda fellow Fenrisians, I have noticed that most tournaments in my region have a Wisiwig-Rule, meaning that all weapons an Unit has on paper should be on the mini. This makes building Grey Hunters a bit complicated, as the can have a Boltgun, a Bolt Pistol and Chainsword, while most of the Miniatures in den Grey Hunters Box wield the Boltgun twohandedly. Is there something like "golden solution" to this problem, or how do you solve this? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grotsmasha Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Typically WYSIWYG is only necessary for purchased upgrades. So, if a model as standard has boltgun, bolt pistol, chainsword, then all three do not need to be modelled. *IF* the item IS an upgrade it should be modelled, power sword/fist etc. Filius, Valerian and ranulf the revenant 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranulf the revenant Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 (edited) Yeah, that sounds about right. I was wondering about that as well, for example with stuff like bolt pistols...

Debauchery101 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Like said already most important things to represent is stuff you pay extra for. I have used marines with chainswords and bolters even though they dont have chainswords because they're the same stats as combat blades currently. Which no one has ever complained about Filius 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightHowler Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Both of the above answers are correct, but if you’re looking for modeling advice: I model my grey hunters with either boltgun held in one hand and chainsword in the other, bolt pistol and chainsword, or two handed bolter. When I put them on the table I mix these different models together into one pack to represent each grey hunter fighting in their own style. I love the look of it because each model in the pack stands out and I feel like it gives the whole unit more character. If you are absolutely stuck on the idea of making them truly wysiwyg, you’ll also need to attach frag and krak grenades to each model. I’ve never even attempted to be that much of a stickler, nor do I expect it in my opponents, even at a tournament. Hope this helps.

Filius Posted June 30, 2020 Author Share Posted June 30, 2020 Thanks everyone! That really helps. Puh …and really glad to hear that. I wasn't all too keen on buying lots of extra chainswords and glueing them somewhere to the minis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 When in doubt though, ask the TO where you play! No need to get caught out, and it can help you figure out where you don't want to play. For a squad though, I like Nighthowler's method best, it can help you give a good representation of the load out as a whole without cramming everything in on each and every model.
