Hi
I just got my thunderhawks - they are in new FW blister.
What puzzles me is that they are came with 4 Epic infantry bases - and as I've heard everyone in using 25 mm square bases for them (getting them not problem)
So should I mount them on epic bases or on WHFB square ones?
FAQ2010 says 20mm square bases, so I'd be inclined to suggest that.
The standard now is the square bases, originally it was kind of up in the air for some reason tho.
I don't make the rules, I just think them up and write them down.
Because the game was designed with markers not miniatures.Originally Posted by andrewchristlieb

what are those triangle scanner looking templates on same page as blast markers, asteroids and nova cannons ?
Contact markers, you use them in some of the scenarios.
Oh thank you
And torpedo markers must be cut to correspond to Str of torpedoes? For example 1 full marker is 6 torpedoes and if my STR is 2 i must cut it to make counters 2 torpedoes each?
Well, that's going to depend on the rules you're using. Current GW website rules have it so that each torp is represented. So if a bunch of vipers get together and launch the result looks like a space fairing picket fence.
The popular (and tourney used) FAQ2010 rules have any sized salvo represented by a standard marker that looks like 3 torps. Then you put a die or something next to it to represent actual strength.
I Have
1 Barge
3 Strike Cruisers
3 Novas
3 Gladius
4 Hunters
Should I add another Strike Cruiser to make it 1500 or something else?
I want to convert Strike cruiser from Imperial/Rogue Trader/Mechanicus or Chaos cruisers - what is most size comparable model from them to SM Cruiser?
Dauntless/Endeavor From the Imperial or Admech lines the full cruisers are obviously a bit larger and IMO a cut down Imperial or Chaos cruiser looks... blah check out Afterimagedan's work with a chaos strike cruiser found here.
I don't make the rules, I just think them up and write them down.
I think I'll try to make it from 2 chaos cruisers
for now I've started painting SM fleet (partially) and I have 20 Thunderhawks - I think this is enough to have all markers I'll need for 1500 -2000 pts.
As for tyranids - they waiting for SM fleet but I already started converting hive ship.
Hi all
I want to convert imperial/chaos ship so I can use as Strike Cruiser? I don't know sizes of all ships so any advice would be nice.
I'm thinking about something from Chaos/Imperial plastic cruisers like Exorcist/Avenger/Vengeance .
Can someone post photos of cruisers and Strike cruisers (and if possible battle barge) for size comparison?
