nice! looking good man. I have no advice on what to take as i've still not given them a whirl either. Rule of cool for me suggets marksman, 1 reiver for capturing objectives and general flightyness seems like a good choice.
Great job with conversions, you gave them a lot of character. Cannot wait to see them finished! As for things to pick.. it is a trick team, first and foremost: omni-scrambler mechanics (so you NEED infiltrators in your team). Marking enemy model to wait X rounds is super strong. On top of it you can use combo of Saboteur & Comms (saboteur moves, plants, dashes away; enemy cannot move because omni-scrambled; comms gives saboteur free action to detonate - precious target(s) killed). Next "auto-pick" model for me is a Veteran, customizable gun and incursor-level melee. Oh, and he is also infiltrator, making omni-scrambler better. Incursors have both nice choices of Marksman (BS2, AP1, Lethal5.. hard to skip it, right?) and Minelayer (good chokepoint or control point denial). Marksman seems auto-pick, while Minelayer competes for choice with Helix and reivers (depending on mission/map/enemy). Leader choice is either reiver (AP1 and reiver things) or infiltrator (BS2, Lethal5, omni-scramblers). Sadly, cool looking vox-breaker is very situational, having use only if enemy depends heavily on concealing (and even then may be questionable)..
That was all great advice! I ended up going with Reiver leader, Marksmen, Comms, Vox breaker, minelayer, veteran. But after playing the game I would definitely subbed out the vox for the medic!
Love what you did with the team! I've got no specific advice for the kit but looking over the data sheets, if you're going to take a reiver it needs to be the reiver sergeant. I know folks are like "but command points!" but realistically you're going to use that maybe twice and thats already a huge advantage. Comms guy seems non-negotiable too. but otherwise... the cool ones. take the cool ones.
Love the team, its definitely gonna look sick all painted up!!🤘🏻🤘🏻.. I personally like the marksman, healer, comms, Reiver Sergeant, veteran, Reiver Warrior. You can change that last slot as needed but i perfer the Reiver Warrior. Giving myself a model to move quickly up the board and fight over objectives, and with a grappling hook and vanguard active, you move fast. Plus he can throw some fisty cuffs and he has terror. So definitely 2 Reivers for me.
Reivers copped some flak on release of this team. But I think you are right I see them appearing in more and more teams. A great way to take it to the enemy and protect your shooters.
Using green stuff, try to not use the part where blue and yellow have touched in the packaging. That's already cured and leaves little bumbs and lumps that cannot be sculpted. Why don't you try it out the next time? Cheers, mate!
I wish I could convince my wife to want to travel down under some day. She says she never wants to because of all the dangerous animals lol but I have family there (Moms Uncles Side) and wouldn't mind visiting at some point before I die hahah I love your videos and I love these chalanges I just didn't like Phobos so I didn't join in. and my wife had warpcoven so I didn't join that one either. Maybe next time there will be something I do like.
The Reiver Sergent is georgeous !!
Finally got some paint on him, now he is a looker! 🤣
@@3StoWound Ho by the way the base was 40mm right on him ? I don't think it's legal on compétitive games since it's 32mm normally..
@@bauguilhugo9037 I reckon you would be right! I should have done a swap 😲
@@3StoWound yeah i forgot to mention it on my first comment but hope you could fix it (or not if you don't want to)

thats what I am going to be rolling with!
Definitely 🌶🌶
Love the neophyte arms idea, absolutely makes them look sleeker
Great job! I think my favorite is the helmet-holder.
Thanks, that guy does seem very proper badass!

They are looking good! Can’t wait to see them painted up
I am painting them with nervous hands trying not to ruin them!
Looking sweet chap I love the neophyte additions to the models it really makes them come to life as remote working operatives 👍
Thank you!

Good work as always, I’m hoping to pull my battle hardened Raptors together in the painting stage.
I love the raptors scheme! Can't wait to see them!
Recently found your channel through your guardsman video, love your edditing style
Thank you, means a heap!
Hey, love what you have done here. Did this project ever get finished?
Hey mate! I did, they got their first run as a completed team in this batrep: ua-cam.com/video/0gZcEuaFHKA/v-deo.html
Love what you’re doing here! Used Green stuff for the first time on my Phobos. What is Ben doing to us!?
I think we need to blame any and all mistakes on him, it's only fair....
Using green stuff, try to not use the part where blue and yellow have touched in the packaging. That's already cured and leaves little bumbs and lumps that cannot be sculpted. Why don't you try it out the next time? Cheers, mate!
Great tip, thank-you! I noticed those bits and bumps and couldn't work it out.
A day and a half? Already that late in. I'm not even done assembling damn it.
hahahah I failed miserably with that deadline, I wasn't even close!
I wish I could convince my wife to want to travel down under some day. She says she never wants to because of all the dangerous animals lol but I have family there (Moms Uncles Side) and wouldn't mind visiting at some point before I die hahah

Let your wife know she will be fine! All the animals are well in hand haha.
Fingers crossed you can get on board with the next challenge!!
So. is there a link to your discord?
