Warrant Officer First Class
|
Right this started the other week when I was talking to someone who used to work at my local GW shop about warmachine, and he mentioned that they had brought out a new rule set and as I had some Menoth stuff knocking about I thought I would dig it out and have a look. Then a few conversations with Sachiel and Fraser and a visit to W,G,E in Sheffield and Marauder in Stockport, I have the new Menoth codex plus what i already had and i have the start of a 50pt lv 4 tiered list  with a few bits left to get! But as these things go I have a load of stuff left which I got using the rule of cool so I am going to see after I have painted this one about using the other stuff in different army stiles and swapping units out from my currant list well, we will see how that goes Right here is every thing I have soz about the badly painted Jack tried a fast way to paint him up and did not like it!  This is the list I am going with tell me what you think Protectorate of Menoth The northern crusade T1 - Use only listed models (Benefit –1pt cost Crusader and Templar) T2 - Include Covenant of Menoth (Benefit + 1 to starting roll) T3 - 2 or more medium based Exemplar units (Benefit gain advance move to these units) T4 - 3 or more heavy warjacks (Benefit warjacks gain +2SPD during your first turn) Hierarch Severius + 6pts Avatar of Menoth 11pts Blessing of Vengeance 7pts Crusader 6pts Vanquisher 8pts Covenant of Menoth 2pts Exemplar Cinerators 2 squads 10pts (need one more box) Choirs of Menoth 2 pts Knights Exemplar 5 pts Knights Exemplar seneschal 5pts Wrack 1pt (need two more) Total 50pts (57pts) To get W.I.P Done And a quick date picture as some of these are going in tail off  Well while I install all the DLC missions for ME2 I’ve finished it already using the vertion of it strait of the disc I’ll try out a tester on Severius. |

Filthy zealots. Choir die very nicely when you drop AOEs on them. Impressed you're going Tier 4 to start with. |

It's not imperative you go straight to Tier 4. I'm debating doing Zerkova's tier list at all because she requires so much support to keep alive. Also I want to throw Alexia in |

I would personally never run Zerkovas list. Certainly not at tier 4. She's a great caster, but I wouldn't want everything in the hands of doomreavers. |

It's completely hit or miss, that's what's so funny about it, plus the whole "Orgoth artifact hunter" thing is one of my favourite back-stories (along with her absconding with one of the two remaining Elven Gods), but I digress. It's a pity by beloved horse-faced mini only gives you an extra Doom Reaver UA in her list, while eButcher lets you take as many of them as you like. Should be the other way round IMO. One of these days I want to use her to cast Influence 8 times and have half my opponents army tear the other half apart. I wouldn't worry about it aking over your house Duncan, even if you bought one of each unit in the entire Menoth book it's not a huge amount, even with a bunch of Warjacks. |

Mentoth, my second warmachine army. I'm excited to see what it brings! Are you going for the classic scheme? |

Use GW metals. There's no reason not to. |

That's a ton of white metal... good luck with that!!! P3 metalic paints are not that good. The silver is crap (don't know about gold) It has a grainy shine to it. And just looks artificial in comparison to Citadel. Go Team!!! |

I completely disagree on the p3 metals. I think they blow GW's metals out of the water, and I cut them both with the same glaze medium. Maybe its an issue with the batches. |

Well maybe it's just an issue with me... It looks like my GW metalics feel crappy lately. So it might be something that I do to make the P3 paints seem weird... Oh and I like the Armour Wash from P3... It's like badab black and devlan wash put into one neat wash. |
