    Love to hear about the background of some of those units and how you kitbashed them. It breathes so much life into something as simple as a plastic kit.

    You are correct about the Empire Captain as your Greatsword Champion! Got the same model and its a great model to have! Also, you mention you don't like the gold armour of the Inner Circle Knights, but I really really like that part myself! They standout and they look great that way (and look like Blazing Suns knights too so that's good!).
    Love the black and yellow colour of the army overall, really striking!

      I feel you. I recently moved to a quite rural area where I knew no one. It took me about 4 months to finally get in touch with the first person and have a game. It was a blast though. So I can only recommend you to either visit some Warhammer Groups on Facebook or on Reddit and post that you are looking for players in your area from time to time. I had to post over the course of a few weeks until finally the right person was online at the right time and read it. Also getting in touch with local stores might help aswell. Good look and don't give up the search.

    What a beautiful army and nicely done showcase! I'm fighting for Averland too 🖤💛
    I'm wondering what your recipe for the yellow on the state troops is? :)
    Oh and I quite prefer crossbowmen over handgunners. I feel like their 30" range and armour bane 2 is good but I'm only six games in and mainly focus on Demigryphs rn but maybe give those shooty guys a try one day :)

    • @arthyficial
      @arthyficial  2 місяці тому +1

      Another brother in arms for Averland, great! Unfortunately all those paints that I used are lost to time. Even if I could remember those names, their newer citadel parts are not even close to it. In my refurbishment video I bought the Averland Sunset(? I think), and that is much more vibrant than what I had before. So I had to mix some more yellow-green in to get closer to mustard. So I am afraid I cannot give you a recipe anymore.
      I do indeed prefer crossbows over handguns aswell. You never want to walk with them at all costs (ponderous) so 30 inch is the only way. But in any match I used them I just felt like I didn't need them. If someone plays harpies and threatens my cannons, I use the cannister shot. Or a hero on Pegasus to shoo them away. And I never shoot at infantry as my cav just wipes them away thanks to 1st charge. But I noticed that alot of units feel like "they have no value" but that is all down to survivors bias. They may have no value in my army composition but could be quite useful in a whole other setup. So I'm trying to keep away from saying "they are useless".

    • @arthyficial
      @arthyficial  2 місяці тому +1

      Great and thanks. Have fun painting those black/yellow dudes. I might keep the Inner Circle knights like this afterall. I fear the yellow is no longer in production (I think). It was a very light yellow and it was one of the first "drybrush" paints they released back then in the citadel range. Maybe you can find something similiar to it. And unfortunately I cannot remember what the grey was, too long ago. ;)

    Try to use tiny units of 5-6 crossbow men or hand gunners as detachment of your infantry. Hold and fire reaction wounds now count to the combat result and in addition, you can deny some rank if you have luck.

    • @arthyficial
      @arthyficial  2 місяці тому +1

      Thanks for your input! Unfortunately I tried those. I still struggle to get them having a good line of sight when using them. Always seems to scramble up my formation. Also I am mostly charging my enemy, even with infantery. Due to the fact that my cannons make them move towards me sorta headless. And as far as I know, you cannot give support fire anymore when you charge. Which is sad. I sometimes pick 5 as a detachment when I really have nothing else to fill those 35 core points.
