I have to say how clean your paint work is. Good solid colors and crisp clean lines. Great job.
This game looks really great. I mean, nuclear weapon-toting space cathedrals? You've sold it really well here. I might hit you up later if I run out of things to read but for now this 25-year-old rabbit hole seems to run very deep indeed. Will be riding the wave of obsession for a good while till I get enough time again to get back to my Napoleonic painting projects.
There is 6 more escorts but I don't have enough bases to go around at the moment!
You don't really have a force org chart, but the cruisers are the bread and butter of a BFG force, and for every two cruisers you can deploy a heavy cruiser (bigger guns), and for heavy three cruisers (including heavy cruisers) you can deploy a battleship (bigger guns, more toughness etc). You can have as many or as few escorts as you like.
Escorts are quick, manoeuvrable and have decent firepower... at the cost of durability, save arguably in numbers. For Imperials and Chaos they're special weapon teams not front line fighters.
Eldar and Orks often have a very escort heavy focus, Eldar because they're fast and mean so being fragile doesn't matter and the ork escorts aren't very fragile at all!
Getting back to project the first for little, we did paint some White Scars!
