On this week’s episode, Brad and Eric go shopping to buy a full army for “only” $500… FOUR TIMES??? Wait… wasn’t they supposed to buy just one army? Who's the project manager that let this happen? Now we need to cut the editor’s payment to cover for this! Luckily it's just Berilio we are talking about but still…

    Thanks for enjoying the episode everyone, the comments have been extremely fun so far. I do hope people looking to get into the game get some actual knowledge out of the rather clickbait setup for the challenge. A LOT of effort went into this one, hopefully it shows. I also learned the UK's criminally low prices INCLUDE TAX? So your prices are actually like 10-20% lower than they look already? We need to colonize the UK so we can get ahold of cheaper minis.

    So as a fairly new Guard player, a guy with a lasgun is a guy with a lasgun. Only problem with the Solar Auxiliaria which are beautiful sculpts is no special weapons. Same with the Russes, they’re great, but no sponsons, I hear you might have a solution I don’t have to that problem named 3d printing. I do think a truer Guard list would even now have a little indirect, but there are definitely people Guard who run tank spam, or all infantry or other meme lists.

    This is a very good idea, the way that 30k marines are equipped means that the units transfere to primaris single- weapon units really easily. Buying one box of tactical marines and a weapon upgrade kit can get you 5 "intercessors" 10 "hellblasters" and 5 "infernus squads" for one example. The rhino variants are all gorgeous, new models that are great to put together (with the exception of one part that's a pain) and the land raider proteus is a great model as well.

I live in Canada, so converting USD to CAD I have a budget of $682 I started off in December 2021 getting a knight castellan for $190, and a box of helverins for $85. Later that month I got a box of warglaves for $90. At the end of 2022 I got the chain breaker lance for $250 I am now the proud owner of: 1 knight castellan (525 pts for $190) 2 armiger warglaves (300 pts for $90) 2 armiger helverins (280 pts for $85) Chain breaker lance ($250) 1 knight errant (405 pts) 2 armiger helverins (290 pts) 2 armiger warglaves (300 pts) Total points: 2090 Total cost in CAD: $615 Total cost converting to USD: $450.77 TLDR if your faction has a really good Christmas box, consider buying it.

    It's not just Europe tho.. only the USA and Canada do not include the full price on the tag. Most places use the full price. Definitely bias, but it always feel weird, because those taxes are know before the purchase and think it's weird that it is blammed on the store even tho it is the store who pays those taxes and should be included in the price. There is no tax man who runs in stores raising prices how it sometimes feels in America. It is not a big thing and it is just what you are used to, but it is one of those things I will never understand probably

    The £ literally being worth $1.28 dollars right now. Also buys way more Warhammer cos they make it here and most of the 3rd party stores ship within the UK for free. So the Adeptus Custodes combat patrol is (logging into the Warhammer store as if I am from the US) $168, which by exchange would be £131, but the combat patrol from GW in England is £100, ($128), and from a third party store I can get the Custodes combat patrol for £80, ($102), with free delivery. So getting an army for $500 in the UK is honestly way way easier, that is around £390, you could also literally get it all new and no ebay needed. US and Australia/NZ especially a lot harder to do 40k on a budget I think.

  • @pstuart17

    Idea for "outsourcing" the painting process: Bricky has a couple of Vtubers he's been streaming with lately that have expressed at least a passing interest in 40K tabletop. Perhaps he could convince them to do a 'yapping a painting' stream with a couple of them while you three answer their lore questions? Alternatively, partnering with Ninjon or PlayOn or Squidmar to paint one of the armies could get it done. Or you could host a painting competition where you establish the paint scheme and the contestants pick a unit and get to painting. Yes, there will be some stylistic and skill level differences, but the army would def be unique. And as long as you established the exact colors to be used, then the army will still look cohesive. Winner can get a swag box or a VTT game with you two or get to be a guest on an episode to talk about mini painting or something.

    One thing to keep in mind with second hand miniatures is that there is no guarantee for the level of modelling quality if that's something you care of. Uncleaned mould lines and thick paint are a thing. If you just want to play, then it's fine. But turning them to an army that also looks good will take extra effort.

I met, talk3d to the guy, and told him about it being my first Amy, and he cut me a deal for $300 and a promise to send him a few pictures of it being played. We shook hands and I stuck to the deal.

I hope that my hobby tip helps. That advice works for cadians and (Chad) kriegers. I recommend joining the guard. There is so much depth in the faction. I salute you brad. Welcome to the guard 🫡.

With a Spearhead box, I’ve easily spent more to paint them than what the box cost to buy. Annoyingly when I decided to collect another faction / army, the paint scheme was completely different. There was few paints that both used.
