Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000 - Genestealer Cults Achilles Ridgerunner

Product Information

White Armour: – Wash with Apothecary White, keep an eye out for pooling in the crevices and draw it away before it sets too much. – Soft Drybrush VGC Ghost Grey with a round-tipped makeup brush. – Edge Highlight the most raised parts of the armour with White Scar. If you set up this unit in ambush, place an ambush marker anywhere on the battlefield that is wholly within your deployment zone.

Set up one model from that unit within 1" of the centre of that ambush marker, wholly within your deployment zone and more than 9" away from any enemy models. Then remove that ambush marker. To get river/lake looking shiny I just kinda pour some gloss varnish from the bottle on, you will want a paper clip or something to poke any bubbles. The penultimate step is painting the rims with your choice of paint, in this case I used dryad to match my Tyranids. The last model thing the models need is to throw on some tufts, I like using these ones from Gamers Grass: Basecoat any claws with Lupercal Green, shade with Coelia Greenshade, highlight with Sons of Horus GreenWhile playing test games is the best way to understand your options, it’s hard to get in enough games to understand all the variables at play and arrive at a reasonable set of expectations. Have no fear though! I am here to help by giving you an in depth look at what you should really expect out of a unit or piece of wargear.

Paint the weaponry using Stormhost Silver for the barrels and Khorne Red for other weapon components, offering distinct functionalities. Things get even more difficult when you consider a full land train consisting of the Ridgehauler pulling 4 trailers with two guns on each container. Now instead of 6 hull points it has 26, and a total of 11 guns to prevent Catastrophic hits to the body from dealing extra damage. It would require thousands of lasgun shots to disable these things. I know this because I ran the numbers. Let’s start out with targeting the Redemptor: toughness 7, 3+ save with -1 damage. For both weapons we will examine the unbuffed baseline, +1 to hit via Crossfire, and +1 to hit with +1 to wound with Crossfire plus Exposed bonuses.You can set up this unit anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 8" away from any enemy models. There you have it! I hope this sheds some light onto the choice between the Heavy Mining Laser and Achilles Missile Launcher. Don’t forget that the math here doesn’t give the whole picture! There are many layers to building a list and using your units correctly. You can set up this unit anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 6" away from any enemy models, but that unit is not eligible to declare a charge this turn. For additional weathering on vehicles, apply a coat of matt varnish all over the model, then once dry, thin down Raw Umber oil paint with mineral spirit, wash into the recesses, then very carefully wipe away any excess with a cotton bud dipped in mineral spirit. You have to be extremely careful with this part, if you rub too excessively, you run the risk of wearing away the paint underneath.

The Light Vehicle chassis is 50 credits. It needs 2″ of movement (+20 credits), an extra Toughness on the front (call it +10 credits), one more HP (+20 credits), 2 better handling (+20 credits), and there’s no way to get the Outrider’s special rules. Even if you ignore those special rules the Outrider gets a 50 credit discount over a roughly equivalent custom ride, not to mention the option to harpoon your enemies at gang creation. Wolfquad Set up the remaining models in that unit wholly within 6" of the first model, wholly within your deployment zone and more than 9" away from any enemy models. Where things get hilarious is that you can build it up even more. For 50 credits you can get an armoured container which adds two hardpoints with all-around firing arcs, counts as a Ammo Cache that cannot be exhausted, and it provides you with D3x10 credits if the vehicle survives the mission. There’s also a 30 credit promethium tank option which gives you D6x10 credits if it survives and lets every Flame weapon within 3″ become Plentiful instead of Scarce, but it can also explode and do fun things if it’s hit by a particularly hard shot. Players can take things even further by adding up to 4 Ridgehauler trailers at 130 credits each which can also carry a container or tank. Start by painting the main body of the Achilles Ridgerunner using Leadbelcher, a metallic paint that gives it a strong framework. Many Ridgerunner crews include a spotter equipped with magnoculars, whose task it is to identify and relay enemy troop movements and weak points in the opposition's defence.Personalize the model with Citadel decals and insignias. Use a fine brush to neatly apply these details, elevating the overall appearance.

Several of the upgrades directly modify stats. Extra Armour adds 1 to the Toughness characteristic of every side for 25 credits. Nitro burner increases the Movement characteristic by 1″ for 15 credits. Reinforced Armour increases the starting HP by 1 for 20 credits. Finally wheeled vehicles can take Tyre Claws and/or All-Wheel Steering to add 1 to the Handling characteristic for 10 credits each. Oddly there’s no way to improve the Save characteristic.Basecoat with thin layers of this colour, taking care not to build up so much paint that the details are obscured. Slow and steady wins the race! x73 plastic components that make one Achilles Ridgerunner armed with two heavy stubbers, and a choice of either a heavy mining laser, a heavy mortar, or a missile launcher. It also comes with a host of other options and optional wargear. To manifest the psychic power, you must first pass a Psychic test. The opposing player can then select one of their PSYKER units that is within 24" of the PSYKER unit attempting to manifest the power and attempt to deny that power before its effects are resolved by passing a Deny the Witch test. The solution was to take a pressmold of a Zone Mortalis tile and make my own base topper. I started with two part silicone putty. This size of mold will use a decent chunk of a box, but the mold should hold up for quite a while! Press the putty into the surface and wait about 90 minutes to demold something this size.
