Title: Unidentified Hive Fleet!
Post by: Chrysalis on May 08, 2008, 04:51:56 AM
We are going to begin Battlefleet Gothic with the guy I usually play Hell Dorado with. When I told him I wanted to play tyranids, he gave me a bag full of nids scratch & garbage. Here is what I've done with it so far

A little Kraken ship:

A vanguard drone:

An escort drone

Some capital ships:

A bigger capital ship, made for close combat. I think it'll be and old, agressive male, with more spikes, claws and tentacles than the others. Many parts are missing yet.

And finally, the hive sheep, the queen. A lot of parts are missing on this one right now.

Nice work on those conversion, Chrysalis :)  Looks like its going to be a good looking fleet!

Are you working your way through the Specialist Games back catalogue, then? :)

I don't think I'll get into Inquisitor or Warmaster. But I would gladly try Necromunda. I'll probably one day!

And I entered the hobby as an Epic player, by the way!

Warmaster is worth a look mate, good game in my opinion (probably on my own there though)

Alrith: your right, its a good game, but its just a bit on the expensive side. so although ive palyed it, ive never collected the minis.
