Again the bikes have a very nice look
Do you use them as a NETEPIC or E:A unit?

you can do 2 NETEPIC units with this amount of bikes :D

Thanks Boyz !! I don't play NETEPIC, but if we do play we'd use a modified E:A ... We still use the old SM1 Rule for CAV or Bikes. As they can dismount and fight as infantry ... ;)

Thats why you have 5 to a base right?

Yes, that is why we put 5 on a base for both IG CAV and Bikes ... And yes, logically it does make sense, that one of the reasons why we use that rule ... ;)

I like how the color comes out actually, even if I'm usually not a great fan of camo schemes on epic models*. I quite like the result, how do you plan to base them ?



*I tend to thinks it works too well and ends up obfuscating the relief and details on the minis. Subtle camo works well on imperial planes and Tau though

Thanks, yes this has come up before ... since we started with SM1 and "flocking" bases didn't start until SM2 ... We remain "Old School". And leave the bases just black ... We Feel they look more like Chess pieces. And we like that look. So that is the way these are based. Camo'ing on Epic scale is a bit challenging, but I still include a little dry brushing and of course washes. I really like G/W's new line of washes too. I use them all the time ... ;)
