| The rules allow between 3 and 7 Infantry models on a base. 5 Marines is half a 40K squad (a 'combat squad') and therefore a natural division. Add to this the fact that standard (square and rectangular) Epic bases have 5 holes in them, and you get a trend. NIce walls. They could use a firing platform... |

| Try watered down gryphonne sepia for the top surface, and watered down Asurmen blue for the bottom. Not sure of the dilution you'll need, but start around 1:1 (wash:water) and go from there. Edit: you could try washing the panel lines ogryn flesh for thr top, and asurmen blue for the bottom, capilla... |

| Very nice. However, the heavy drybrushing makes the colors seem 'chalky'. Have you considered either: 1) using a wash to tone the 'chalkyness' down somewhat or 2) Using a flat color basecoat, and washing the panel lines black? Just ome thoughts, but the color gradient is very well done, both top and... |

| To be honest I have not. You are, I assume worried about the ability of wraith-units to affect multiple engagements using the hit and run rule? An Aspect warhost of 2 Reaper Exarchs and 6 Avengers in Wave Serpents (550pt) puts out 10 2/3 FF hits on average. They have a hit and run range of 35cm, ass... |

| As an Iyanden player, I see no problem with either of these units having hit and run. My Wraithguard are always mechanized, and thus would be able to take advantage of the Wave Serpent's mobility in relocation. On foot, they have a 15cm move, which is usually not enough to get a formation into suppo... |

| Why not restrict the range? If for instance the icon/monolith (don't like that name, as it could get mixed up w/ Necs) kept all demons w/in 30/60cm in play until broken or detroyed, this would keep the cost relitively independant of game size, while restricting mobility enough to offset the effects ... |

| Attack bikes are infantry mounted on bikes. Land Speeders have always had the disclaimer that they are not *considered* open topped because the crew wear power armor. Vypers are indeed open topped. Tomb Spyders most closely fit the attack bike mold, in terms of 40K classification (No AV), size, and ... |

For the Gorgonzola loadout, try:
http://www.ghqmodels.com/store/g76.html
Rifle Company (Squad Stands) - WWII German
GHQ Stock # G76
124 men.
I have a pack of the seated inf somewhere, and they are pretty good hits for the F/W 28mm stands. No rebreathers though. |
