Thanks guys, I absolutely love painting that blue camo pattern, but it certainly does not make it lucky. It's bit the dust turn 1 every game I've played. Most likely because its the only trukk on the field and an obvious target. I think I'll have to shelf him for a bit until I get some more trukks.
I've been playing a game almost every week now at my LGS and I'm learning at an exponential rate. I've played both ITC and ETC games and I much prefer ETC games, which seem way easier to track scoring. The guys at my LGS wanted to start a Youtube channel for batreps, so you may see me having some games online in the near future.
So as promised, here's some Shokk Attack Gun Big Meks;
I started with the old Shokk Attack Gun from the original metal models and added them to nob bodies and fleshed them out with some nob and loota bits.
Once I added some paint, I think they turned out quite well.
Now, in the frequent games I've been playing I've been having issues with my mega armoured nobs suffering from not having a waaagh! character nearby, so I thought that they might benefit from a warboss of their own.
Decided to go cheap on the points and not make him a mega armoured warboss. Hopefully I'll be smart enough to keep him behind my MANz, so he can't be targeted and hope my opponent is limited on snipers. I might look for a used ghazghkull model online to convert, if I have issues keeping him alive.
Now I had a few left over points, especially since I dropped the skorchas from my MANz and thought I might as well sneak in a Mek Gun.
Smasha gunz are pretty cheap, but effective. Let's see how it fairs in my next game.
I've got a game lined up tomorrow at my LGS and another at my buddies place this Saturday. I haven't played a game against him in a year and he really wants to learn to play with his stratagems and tactical objectives, so it'll be a fun learning experience.
Here's the list that I'm bringing to both games:
Goff Battalion
Warboss attack squig, big choppa, shoota
Warboss attack squig, big choppa, shoota
Warboss attack squig, power klaw, shoota
Meganobz x3 kustom shoota, power klaw
Meganobz x3 kustom shoota, power klaw
Painboy
Slugga boyz x29 + power klaw nob
Slugga boyz x29 + power klaw nob
Shoota boyz x29 + power klaw nob
Bad Moons Battalion
Big Mek Da Souped-up Shokka, warlord w/ Big Killa Boss
Big Mek SAG
Big Mek SAG
Gretchin x10
Gretchin x10
Gretchin x10
Lootas x12
Goff Spearhead
Weirdboy Warphead Da Jump + Warpath
Deff Dread x4 Dread Klaws
Deff Dread x4 Dread Klaws
Mek Smasha Gun
I've learned my lesson from past games and tried not to take too many klans. The bad moons will be isolated on their own and won't be able to take advantage of the warboss or painboy influeneces, so there's no need to take them as Goffs.
I'll update next week with the results of my games and hopefully something else painted.
