|  | Tervigons to Carnifexes
« Thread Started on Jun 25, 2012, 3:00am » | |
So with the recent release of the official Tervigon model, I decided to take apart my 2 converted Tervigons and rebuild them as fexes. But with 6th edition coming out soon I wanted some advice on how to proceed.

Im lost...what does the conversion have to do with sixth edition?
If youre asking for conversion advice, we need to see the models. If youre asking if fexes will be worth it in sixth...we know as much as you.

Carnifexen loose out again with 6th,
Smash doesn't help them at all
Over watch/snap fire makes charging even worse.
Impact hits might help, but generally, it looks bad,
Mine are all having their scything talons swopped for devs, if they get used at all.

Okay, so the question is how you put them together in the first play. I find long enough in Simple Green works for plastic welds as well as cyano-acrylate. At least it'll take the paint and primer off.

If advice weapons combinations is what you're asking for, i'd say: Magnets!
barring that - Devourers! They're ok in 5th, for suppression, but without the -1 on the Vehicle Damage Chart from AP - they're gonna be killers in 6th!

Also, stripping something with simple green will loosen up the GS joints (the number of times i have lost gap-fillers while toothbrushing my strippers stripped models escapes me.

Two Twin-Linked Devourers. For both of them.

I think if, I'll just leave, maybe I'll just come back later and we can lay down the cowbell.
