Its funny how after the detachment of years the whole system seems somehow more homogenous and i am able to appreciate more fully how great a game this was (is).<br /><br />Lock and load............;-)David Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-33729479186785562922009-09-05T08:33:21.412+01:002009-09-05T08:33:21.412+01:00They look almost identical to my own BA Termie hor...They look almost identical to my own BA Termie horde from 1st Edition.

I would love to tackle a similar sized terminator formation in another colour and try the army painter on them - I will have to see if I can acquire enough of the mark one Space Hulk terminators first. I know the Assault Cannons are OTT but I just love 'em! Space Crusade is an old friend and is one that is on my 'to get' list for the parts alone.The only thing I want to add at the moment is some remote sentry guns like those used in Aliens.David Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-28644455707354862172009-09-04T19:40:04.275+01:002009-09-04T19:40:04.275+01:00FOUR assault-cannons?

The Mechanicus Forge-worlds will have to put in double shifts to keep this lot going! :-)<br /><br />I'd agree with Steve's comments above - I've started 'dipping' my miniatures and haven't looked back - best thing I ever bought!<br /><br />Did you ever get the MB boardgame Space Crusade? It had all manner of clip-on outsized weapons, and was fantastic for conversion-fodder!CWThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08145880616920091517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-80042155246419824422009-09-04T19:26:36.007+01:002009-09-04T19:26:36.007+01:00I am really keen to try that stuff and your WW1 Br...I am really keen to try that stuff and your WW1 Brits did provide some inspiration. The Terminators were painted in about 1990 and had a coat of varnish with a drop of black paint in to provide shadow. I was really pleased with them at the time but they could use a little updating and freshening up. I was always really proud of the Assault Cannons - completely OTT but what the heck!David Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-44899407880728784892009-09-04T19:02:40.814+01:002009-09-04T19:02:40.814+01:00They look a bit different to the new ones! :-)
