1. Does anyone use beastmen in their IG armies?
2. Are ratlings still viable in E:A? Anyone use ratlings?
3. Robot basing, single or multiple models? would it matter?
4. What color are The Sons of Horus not Luna Wolves?
5. Do you paint your orks neatly or try to go for the authenticity, splash on the red for speed :D

Well that should be it for now.
Thanks

1 - Best beastman in IG army every - General_Ng's 'Bulus'. He even painted the shields as cowhide. Brillent. Uses them as regular guardsman.
2 - Lots of people do as snipers, easy to differeniat them from regular guard.
3 - Depends on size of base. They are quite big.
4 - Um check out the US GW website they had something on there.
5 - I'm bad and slow at painting.

Hi!

1. Yes. Companies and companies of them.  :;):
2. Dont play E:A, but they work in NetEpic
3. Single, they look better. Does matter game mechanics-wise
4. Dont remember, will look it up.
5. Dont paint them myself, the painters does a mighty good job though.

1) All my Beastmen are with my Chaos Forces. 2) I used Ratlings as Snipers ... IIRC, there are stats for them in the Collectors' Models section of the E:A rules ... 3) Robots = 1 per base.  4) SoH = Black. 5) You have seen the way I paint my Orks ! :;):

1. Never used beastmen, period.

2. Abhumans were never really a part of my IG armies.

3. Single basing

4. The first version of armour used by the Sixteenth Legion was predominantly off-white, with black trim. The Legion's symbol was a wolf's head imposed over an inverted crescent moon.

After the Ullanor Crusade, the Legion's renaming to the Sons of Horus accompanied a change in colouring. The Legion's power armour was decorated predominantly dark grey, with black or gold trim, while some soldiers' gauntlets were colored dark red. The Legion symbol changed to become a stylised eye over a cross.

This colourscheme was retained until Abaddon the Despoiler took command of the Legion's remnants. The Black Legion, as the name suggests, wears black armour. The armour is decorated with gold trim and Chaotic iconography. The symbol of the Eye was retained, however it was now superimposed over the eight-pointed Star of Chaos.

The shift of the Legion's color scheme from white to black is indicative of their slow corruption, from the Emperor's favored Legion to the greatest threat mankind has ever known.

5. I use to use a ?metallic look with red bitz for my Orks, I am now using a more desert look for them.

Thank you gentlemen,
Apart from the horus color scheme, the rest of the questions were for my decision to paint then trade/sell or just trade/sell.
I'll go with the latter and post what I have for trade in the appropriate section.
