    At 50 points Nemo2 can run 14x Chargers.

    Nemo gets 7 FOC
    Feat 14x Chargers x3 FOC= 43 FOC
    Powerful Shot= 3 FOC per Jack becomes effective 5 FOC per jack, Two shots boosted to hit and boosted damage= 70

    77 effective FOC points for a single turn.

    Sorry my initial # had squire for one more but at 50 points you cant fit in the squire with 14x Chargers.

    Update for today....

    Then paint...

    It works. killed off an untouched beast then took out a lock with 4 or so transfers left... while they were on a hill. I was also lucky enough to play the list down in Baton Rouge against the Super Tough, deathstar, IFPM list at 35 points. That was a grind fest and a half.

    I needed to update for some encouragement... a project this big becomes tiresome after a while.



    I have a few circles to paint. GS flags are all made and should be cured ready to paint tomorrow. There is a little electrical work needed on the middle back one (thunderball) and I will be done.

    This will give me a nice jump in points for the journeyman league.

    If PP has 2 cents worth of balls they will allow that many BEs to cause a Panic test to any and all living Models regardless of current status.

    That many BEs would be a fearful sight to behold even to Heavy Warbeasts!!!!!!!

    Wow - seeing that much on the table is impressive. Not sure that I'm sold on the additional legs though...

    You must have very deep pockets to have so much of a given faction...

    Did both of these this weekend. After working on the Spider Striders for so long I was looking for a small change of pace. It was kind of fun going from the largest model in Cygnar to the smallest.

    So how many Squires is that total? By the numbering on the backs, I'd assume 3, and I'd assume that's so you can use them in Unbound games, but I've learned it's better not to assume when it comes to how many of something you might have...

    You are correct. I now have 3x painted Squires. They are for unbound.... as of yet I have only played 150 point unbound games. In the future as the unbound point levels go up (if they do) there will be a new squire per caster... There will not however be any more Spider Striders for me 6x is enough.

    I'm not gonna lie, my brain is struggling to accept that this exists, 6 spider striders is kind of mind blowing.

    Thanks on the basing. I wanted to keep my Cygnar simple base wise. They all get a little gravel and static grass. I found out a long time ago that if you spray 3 or so layers of clear coat it looks like morning dew on the grass.

    The front arcs were a struggle for me. The question for those that dont know is,

    "Do you paint a front arc on a model with 360 front arc?"

    I struggled with this a lot.... I wanted the models to match the rest of my army base wise. If the entire base was blue I felt that he base would be to different from the rest of my army. Unfortunately I am still not completely sold on the half markers. Presently I make sure to tell my opponent that the model has 360 LOS before we start. Truthfully in play I have yet for anyone to even get in its back arc.

    My problem now is that I am still struggling with it. If there is enough negative feedback on it they will probably get blue all the way around... maybe.

    Gaaah...Ag, I've been working on my own LED disco ball project and today just finally caught up with your thread...

    Holy crap. Got any tips for doing the clear resin? I was using Castin' Craft clear, and I had issues with it coming out sticky/turning yellow while setting. Is the smooth-on easier to work with? And how did you do the ball-in-the-ball?
    As of now, I have one ball that's turned out, but not in any spectacular fashion.

    (Oh, and for the record, I figure the Stormwall will require something along the lines of 5 LEDs, at least. Do you have that project in the planning stages, yet?)

    @Zeewulf Give me a couple days. I will do a write up with pics on how I made my Storm Balls.

    @Defenstrator Kinda being taken out of context. That statement was directed at Storm Striders. Stuff that is FA2 will probably never go past 6 in my standing army. Unless there is some amazing model/tier/new rule that throw FA for it out the window. I basically build for 75 point level games and on occasion 150 if it is just over top max out on it good. I love the idea of 2 D3 on eleaps from the Storm Strider. As for StormWall... if you want to send me one or two I will be happy to paint them up and name them after you.

    To all those that want to contribute something that will go down in the annals of "OMG 6!!!!" feel free to send me stormwall models.

    Back when I was working on the Charger spam to the 14th power I had this amazing idea to have 14 different people paint them for me. The plan was to name them after the painter. Understandably everyone I contacted had a life that consisted of "No time for that".

    With all the battle boxes out there I once thought about making an entire army of Strykers with different weapons. ATGM Stryker, Long Gunner Stryker, Storm* Stryker.... maybe one day when I am old and have the time that may happen still.

    Please forgive me. I am trying to get my taxes done over the last couple weeks. I hope to be done in another week. Then it will be time for a working vacation in New Orleans then to visit my parents in Houston. When I get back there should be Minutemen on my work bench.

    Agamemnon,

    There was an article around Christmas that was about the 12 days of Christmas internally by a faction.
    Something like
    12 Gunners Gunning
    11 Guards e-leaping
    etc.
    Why don't you make up the 12 days of Cygnar and then post individual pics of the 12, then 11, then 10, etc.
    You are the only person I know of who could pull it off with the necessary minis required. Dude you can do ii twice!!
    Think of it as a mental challenge.

    Hey Ag, if your ever down this way, I'd love to see your army, pictures are worth a thousand words so seeing it for real must be worth a million. I love your commitment to an army though. Once I start building my Retribution of Scyrah army I hope to have it even close to what you got!

    Tomorrow at 10am at Swords and Superheroes Kingwood Agamemnon and I are throwing 600 points of casters, jacks, troops and solos on the board for the largest warmachine battle played. That's 600pts each, not total. The store is opening early just to fit in the entire battle, there will be pictures, battle reports and blood. Oh yes, there will be blood. Anybody in the area is welcome to come by and visit.

    So judging by your Battle Engine thread, it's going to be 1200 points of Cygnar and Cygnar-friendly Merc models on a single table?

    Right. We've measured the 4x8 table, it will be a tight fit but he has most of his army in jacks and I've got over 100pts of Trenchers and other AD units/models, so we can squeeze them all in. Besides, that much firepower means the board won't be crowded long. It's almost all Cygnar, I've got a merc squad attached to Murdoch and Agamemnon is taking a few mercs to make up the 7pt difference in our armies.
