I grabbed two just to round out my Sequitors as I had a strange number - and a little squad of Chainrasps might be nice for a horde type event in D&D

Are they subscription only or did you pick these up in a shop? Been looking in supermarkets but can never find it.

I got mine in the local Warhammer shop, but I've heard of them being picked up in Asda and WH Smith. Might want to check if you have a local Forbidden Planet or Travelling Man.

You can order them online at Forbidden Planet, although I think Issue 1 is no longer there.

Some bloke on Facebook in the Warhammer buy and sell page getting hammered as he's obviously bought a few of these and trying to send 5 sequitors for £15

Managed to pickup two issue ones from Warhammer at cribbs causeway today. They said the first four you will be able to buy in shops, but the ones after are subscribed only.

Any good news agent will get them in and reserve them for you. I think the first issue comes with a little reservation note that you can give them.

Just started painting 40k again after 10 years, due to work I've been unable to paint until now.

I bought some W&N brushes but I'm not that impressed, seems I may have got a dud batch. Anyone swear by other brands? I keep hearing about broken road and opus Artis.

Are they series 7 W&N brushes? Anything else is not as good, in my limited opinion. There's a web documentary on how Winsor and Newton brushes are made, it's incredible.

There are plenty of basic brushes which work just fine - even GW have some decent brushes - I'd just check them before I buy them! or are you just after premium brands?

Bough 2 issue 2s today. Looking yo get 2 issue 3s and then stop I think. Not actually that much in the magazine.

Speaking to the member of staff in Warhammer today they said that after issue 4 you can only get it subbed, but some retails may get the odd issue depending on its popularity. Warhammer stores will not get anymore as games workshop do not actually own the magazine itself. Also learnt that they are only allowed to sell 2 per customer now due to people buying so many issue 1s.

I have two fairly expensive brushes for very fine detail, the rest are el cheapo. My goto brush used to be the Humbrol Coloro, sizes 2 and 4, but moved onto Royal and Langnickel Gold Taklon. The R&L go for £1.99 for three, they are great brushes and keep their tip very well.

I ended up buying two issue 1s and one issue 2, that will be it for me. Converted two of the Sequitors into Vanguard Hunters for my Warband, the Nighthaunt will all go into my army to boost it up to 1500 points.

Anyone able to pickup Issue 4 of Mortal Realms?

My local Warhammer has no delivery today, nor did the WH Smith. Is there an problem do we think?

MoNkeE · 7 Feb 2020 at 11:33

My local Smiths had 4 in yesterday, maybe they've been a day late?

I'm just holding out for the issue 5's unique Stormcast.

MoNkeE · 7 Feb 2020 at 14:09

Been a long time since I posted any of my work here, but you can follow me on Instagram if you're that way inclined! @WillsSayers

Still a work in progress obviously

Great painting, you must have a lot of patience.

I've been sorting out my shelf space. I ran out of room so I've built some more shelves and pulled down the old ones. Ended up with a great family photo... and I've only ever played two quick games.

Awesome painting. Nice shading

Thanks guys!

I’m much the same Bushmins - I’ve got a Blood Angels force, and three Age of Sigmar armies - Legions of Nagash, Maggotkin of Nurgle and Slaves to Darkness.... I’ve only ever played two games of Age of Sigmar, and never played any 40k

bushmins · 10 Feb 2020 at 20:47

Theres a guy whom I watch on Youtube, you probably have heard of his channel, Tabletop Minions. I just found out he has an app thats all about advertising to people in your area that you play and want join up to play war games. I have not put anything on it yet but I could see it getting me matched up with someone, maybe not today or even the next six months. My only prequisits are that they would have to be or be tolerate of newbs and be age 25ish+. My local GW is a bit quiet but they have no problem setting up a game, but I'd rather do it with a few beers!

I took part in my first ever AoS tournament on 26th of Jan, before that I'd only ever had 2 intro games about 2 years prior, built and nearly painted 2K worth of IronJawz in 28 days, was insanely fun and a pretty decent turnout I think (28 people)
