Hi,
Sorry for the thread necromancy but I thought it was better then starting a new thread.
I'm looking at starting an Ad-Mech skitarii Army as my first Epic army and just wanted to check what you thought of my model plans. I just want to make sure things are an appropriate size and feel right. Its nearly all from Vanguard Miniatures
Hypaspist and SagitariiFor both of these I plan on using The cyber Shadows protector infantry
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/cybershadow-protector-infantry/It looks like you get 1 heavy weapon chap per 5 so the plan is to use those 4 to a base and one commander/regular chap for the Sagitarii and the rest for the Hypaspist
SecutorFor these I'll use the Cyber Shadows Command Nodes
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/cybershadow-command-nodes/possibly either with a few bits glued on for heavy weapons if I'm feeling brave or more likely a few gun/labour drones added to a base instead
Gun DronesCyber Shadows combat drones (HMG) nuff said
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/cybershadow-combat-drones-hmgs/Rapier Laser DestroyersSome Onslaught Grudd heavy mining lasers on a base with a few spare labour drones and normal infantry
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/grudd-heavy-mining-laser/Crusader RobotsCybaer shadows Heavy Cyborgs - although if I found an alternative these would make good Secutors
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/cybershadows-heavy-cyborgs/Colossus RobotsThis one is a bit dubious but I was thinking the Cybershadows Skitter main battle tank, its probably way to big but I really want to use them in the army somewhere and since dunecrawlers are not in the list its going to have to be either as colossus robots or Macharius heavy tanks
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/cybershadow-skitter-main-battle-tank/Praetorian Combat ServitorCyber shadows combat drones should do nicely
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/cybershadow-vanguard-combat-drones/MagosThe cyber shadows master of interactions should do nicely and also provide lots of spare gun and labour drones for other bits
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/c ... mand-node/Hydra Novan Regulars SP anti Aircraft - nice and cheap
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/novan-regulars-sp-anti-aircraft/Ordinatus Minorus and MajorisFor the assault carrier version I plan on using the Novan Rorqal super heavy transport
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/novan-rorqual-super-heavy-assault-carrier/However for the shooty version I plan on scrath building my own, the control pod will be the plastic Novan Regulars IFV but the rest will be whatever I can lay my hands on
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/novan-regulars-ifv/ChimedonsThe Novan warrior heavy infantry fighting vechile is Plan A but its a bit pricey so plan B might be the cheap plastic transports with some spare guns glues on
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/novan-warrior-heavy-infantry-fighting-vehicle-a/Macharius TanksThe Novan Regulars Tribune heavy tank seems right and it even come in the 3 different flavours (assuming I don't use the skitter)
https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/novan-regulars-tribune-heavy-tank-hector/TitansIf I decide to use titans further down the line I'll just use the new GW Adeptus Titanicus ones
Anyway that's the plan, what do you think, anything you think really wont work. I know my choice for the colossus robot is probably quite iffy
Cheers
Andy
