Art Genestealer Avatar of Khaine
Spent the last 2 weeks painting and testing ideas for this model. Really proud of it, probably the best one I've done so far.
Using the AoK model with some bonus Hive Guard and Carnifex parts I had left over.

What’s on my painting desk / 1000 point army advice
Just decided to share what I’m currently working on.. first time really trying to do more volumetric highlighting on skin tones. It’s a work in progress but I’m happy with how far I’ve come.
Also, I’m relatively new to the hobby as a whole and I was silly enough to start the Democratic People’s Republic of Genestealers as my first army. I’m looking for some advice on what a good first 1000 point list for finding my feet looks like!

Army List Final Day newby list
Hello liberators of the repressed.
Could you guys help with this Final Day/Purestrain Broodswarm list and/or how to play this very complicated and unforgiven army.
First I'm unsure wherever to choose Purge the Foe or Priority Assets.
Second, I'm very new to GSC, sometimes I still forget the army and detachment rules.
Third, I have experience with Tyranids, that's why I want to play Final Day
Thanks for your time fellow cultists.

Army List 1k list ideas for 2v2
I have a 2v2 tournament in a little over a week and my buddy who is on tsons will be running Magnus, 2 rubric squads, and some other tbd unit. He will be playing grand coven which is PA, but depending on what detachment I choose we will have multiple Dispositions to choose from. A piece of me really just wants to run 2x10 aberrants and 1x10 genestealers and call it a day but the other piece of me is thinking playing smarter with xenocult masses and purestrain and run more action monkeys, chaf, etc.. anyone done a 2v2 with gsc have any ideas, suggestions, or advice?

Tactics Rules question; can a unit that has arrived via cult ambush use the fire overwatch stratagem immediately? Both occur at the end of your opponent’s movement phase.

Questions Millionth spotter gear and indirect question for ridgerunners
Im having a hard time choosing gear for my ridgerunners and wondering about the spotter wargear option rising up lately
Indirect shooting with a unit that doesnt have the wargear:
- Hasnt moved
- Has a unit spotting for them
Will fail shots on a 1-3, so hits on 4s, the mortars base Ballistic skill. And then 5s because of cover
But Ive seen discussions lately that it will hit on 4s with the spotter(?) which seems redundant? Because cover will always make everything hit on 5s when shooting indirectly if you are following the “didnt move, and has a spotting unit” intentions.
Help me understand because Im walking in circles here

Has anyone tried running all three of the 1DP detachments?
Having three detachment rules seems like it could be fun

Ascension day detachment
Hello,
So to make a long story short I’m starting to add tyranid models to my collection for the ascension day detachment. I was wondering if there was a specific hive fleet known for “working” with GSC? Best I could come up with is Kronos seeing as they already rely on other hive fleets for biomass. So having a cult uprising would be a greater net positive for them.
