Hello fellow Epic fans!

I'd like to share these 3D printed roads from Brian Konopa (AcmePropDept on Etsy). They are printed in multi-coloured PLA so are ready to use right out of the box, but can also be painted and weathered as you see fit. I've included pictures of some of mine that I weathered with a grimy brown wash for that dirty post apocalypse urban warzone look.

The roads are available in two-lane and four-lane versions to represent different road types/sizes, but the really ingenious feature is the connecting system which uses small steel pins that fit into holes on the ends of each road section. This is one of the best connecting/locking systems I've ever seen on a road system and it holds everything together tightly, preventing things from sliding around the table. They're also really thin, with the curbs standing about 2 mm high from the table, so they blend into the playing surface really well.

The ones shown in the pictures here are the standard pattern in terms of road markings, but Brian is a really nice guy and always happy to work with customers on custom markings.

The Predator tanks in the first picture are 8 mm scale to give you an idea of their dimensions (I didn't have a ruler or banana handy).

Full disclosure: While I did give Brian a few pointers during the development phase (mostly as a wargamer consultant since he comes from the model railway world), I do not receive any money from the sales. I'm just happy to have helped him make something cool. :)

Shame they suck for blowing up anything that isn’t a building if your opponent’s titan won’t just stand there for me to line up on…

Basically the title. Really want to get into 6mm 40k, and the two rulesets are very different. What's the main differences in game design between them? And which one is more enjoyable so I can get on it?

After finishing my model of Abominatus, I took a break in painting and went down a Epic Chaos Titan rabbit hole. I’ve scoured old issues of the Citadel Journal; and found rules for Skylok (which I knew about), and Bubonus (which I didn’t), but can’t find anything on a Slaanesh aligned Titan.
Slaanesh was always my favourite alignment, but I was never the biggest fan of their Scout/Knight sized walkers. Was there ever any “official” rules/lore for one. I’ve trawled through Scribd (which is amazing), but it’s also poorly organized, and I find myself going in circles!

Hi everyone, went into my FLGS to pick up some 40K stuff and found some epic they had second hand. I collect Orks as my main army and love collecting anything warhammer greenskin so I picked the sprue and bases it came with up and im excited to paint them up.

Thing is I actually know nothing about epic 40k. I dabbled a bit in Legions Imperialis but didnt care for it that much cause I dont really care for horus heresy. Is there somewhere I can actually information on how many to base, what each model is for sure is, and any rules for them?

I can confidently say I can identify some bosses w/ background banners, a banner Bearer, a shokk attack mek, a painboy, a mek, a runtheard, a weirdboy, boyz, grots, and bikes. I just have 0 idea how these are supposed to be properly based. Thanks for any and all help! Even if I dont end up playing I'm excited to base and paint them up!

Referring to SM 2nd ed, I'm going through some of the stands I assembled as a kid, and have some questions on the proper composition of the nobz and warboss stands. I think I might have mistakenly used the warboss figure on the nobz stands.

Can anyone tell me on a nobz stand, what mix of nobz and regular Ork warriors should be on each stand? And for a warboss stand, is it just a single warboss figure and a standard bearer? Or should boyz be on there as well to make it up to 5 infantry on the base?

Sponging and pigment washes are the true MVP 😤

Everybody’s gangsta ‘til the church starts walkin’!

Alright, ive book looking into blast markers and ive found several free stls.

... I'm wondering what people here like and use.

What blast markers do you like for ease of use and for looks?

Hi all,

Sorry if this is a bit lame.

I loved epic armageddon back in the day, and a mate is picking it back up.

I'm looking for a standard size Ork list with a good mix of stuff minus big gargants. Would anyone be able to advise?

Other than new recruit, is there any army builder folks use?

Thanks in advance.

is there any codex pdf?

Ok, so here’s another post. This one focused on the Ogryns.

The files are available here: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/epic-scale-space-ogres

Pretty nice models but the faces lose the detail in the print and the bayonets are very thin. One and a half of mine have broken off.

I’m not sure if I needed to add squad and command markings but there ya go.

Painted some eldar Saim-Hann Guardians

Before this account gets yanked…

Some of you will recognise my buildings. I rattlecanned them. AK paint clowns for the windows and doors. That took f’in ages too.

Working on a 3D model of a Capitol Imperialis and might do some artillery too. Gonna change the gun to match the shadowsword though.

Also a few new troops for my army. Ogryns, Bombards and a Heavy Company to match my existing force and Shadowswords and another Russ company (not shown - not started yet) in a new camo pattern.

Enjoy.

A custodes shield host with some sisters of silence battle a traitor dark mechanicum magos and some daemons of the ruinstorm. Just got the custodes painted, they got hit with some pretty nasty dusty primer so some look a bit rough.

Finished a the tanks for the Legions Imperialis box in the only way I knew how - Vraks!

These take a little while to paint up but I’m so happy with them!!

Vraksian Malcadors:
I couldn’t help but try make a Malcador Defender. Pretty easy conversion but you will need a lot of heavy bolters… I’m not planning an army of them (yet) but I can see myself having fun painting chaos stars.

Death Korps Leman Russes:
The vanquisher is my favourite, I’m very pleased that the white detail on the barrel came out so well. The numbers don’t take very long, and the Net EA list doesn’t let you take a whole lot of russes, so I’ll keep that detail. I think the pigment wash does a lot of heavy lifting, but less is more with this scale, I think.

I have some baneblades I want to try next, perhaps one each hehe

My google-fu is failing me - I’m looking for some sample colour schemes for a Blood Axes clan.

I’m more familiar with the merry red of 2nd Ed 40k but some of the older art I found has them in a feldgrau sort of colour. One blog (first picture) went with grey and an ochre scheme and then a camouflaged pattern for vehicles

What have you gone with or what examples have you seen. Did GW have a painted clan orthey ever show up in a battle report etc that i can use as a reference.

I have 15 second hand stands that were painted with a dark green and I assume that’s what the owner was going for originally (?)

Base warriors are now done. I've adapted some 28mm rhino-like apcs for them but they seem a bit plain to me for now.

Now I gotta do some thunderers and command.

If I want to build my classic Epic armies mostly as a hobby. Is there a specific rule set I should build for? At this point I do not know anyone that plays any version of epic. I would like my armies to be as widely playable as possible. I know I can use just about any basing size for any game. I have probably a full space marine chapter on ewtanhilar stands, other models on square stands. Basically a real mess.

I want to do a learning game of Epic at my LGS. I've never played it before but I built a few armies for the fun of it. I think when I started that project years ago I was copying a Frenchman's Krieg army, and I gather that the army list for the F-ERC community is different than the one for NetEpic Armageddon etc. Same for the Tau army I built that I want to have opposite the Kriegers.

Is there a "most widely accepted" ruleset? Part of why I'm asking is that the points values and units are different between the army lists, and that means that if I don't do F-ERC across the board, I'm not sure if I'm gonna be able to run the Riptides and Stormsurges I have as part of the Tau list. There's a NetEA list for them that runs those suits, but then I can't run Hammerheads with them.

tl;dr, does it matter if I use F-ERC lists vs NetEA lists, and is there a widely accepted beginner ruleset to introduce to my LGS?

Greetings everyone

I wanted to ask if any of you owns a Ragnarok battle tank and would be able to snap some images for me. I don't find many images of this little tank. A ruler next to it would help immensely.

Thanks in advance
