| Hi all, Tuffskull and Nealhunt are right about the coal, it is a plant deposit compacted by the pressure of deposits to form a mineral-like solid. re fuel efficiency: oil-based fuels generally combust more efficiently and have a higher calorific value, which means you get more stomp per tonne - engi... |

| Hmmm - I'd forgotten about the Mortifactors.... ok, daddy Guilleman it is, then! Gorgons for command - could work - just the 4 Gorgons are, as you pointed out, Xavi, not enough, and I am backing them up with Rhinos/Razors. Megadreads? ummmm. Not convinced - yet. It could work, but I have to put it t... |

| Thanks I guess I'm now committed to the Ares Guard... Malta warm? It's extremely humid and sticky and overcast today, feels like a Catachan jungle without the trees. I'd like to see more of the Demiurg too - so a pinch of enmity from my chapter helps me remember they exist and hope for more. ... |

| Awww, thanks guys - the Ares guard may just have been reprieved. I'll try to take some pics - but, better still, I think I have an idea for a better colour scheme than the original, which had vehicles and troops which looked like faded Blood Angels dropouts.
