Thanks for all the nice comments :)

Got me some bases for the vehicles and also managed to get me a game today that made me wonder. Should I base the trucks like the one to the right or should I leave them without a base for a easier setup...?

Looking at the number of units in a formation the board gets kind of crowded. I intended to base all because they look so much better but now I am having second thoughts. With a base looks better, right?

I say base them but maybe on smaller bases like a 2p/washer

I always prefer to base my vehicles. It just makes them feel more like game pieces to me.

Agree with this i feel based vehicles give a more gaming piece vibe to the model and it also helps to unify the army as a whole. Plus i love your army with those little base touches you do. :)

Not only does it have aesthetic purposes but assists in game play as the base, especially standardized ones in a force, give a clear boundary to the unit that removes modeling for advantage for the most part.

Hi!

I have recently warmed up to the idea of basing my vehicles as well.

I think it really adds to the models itself as well as the army.

I soon have 2000 points painted but think I need another Cult to be able to build good 3000 point armies using the Stigmatus list or what do you think, is 4 cults enough?

Yeah, thanks a lot :)
Any suggestions for Anti Air? I need some hydras but the original model is just to broad for my taste.

Playing as Stigmatus Cultist and I thought they needed a Greater Daemon (and some more Demagogues and a Chaos Marine) :)

Still undecided about the altars.
What type of daemon engine do you think will fit the theme?
Right now I might keep them undivided and focus on the traitor slots and think of some way to get a good substitute for the Hell Cannons (the originals is kind of ugly :P )and perhaps some day I will get my hands on a Defiler...

I use those old 40k Chaos familairs with my Chaos and GS Cult ... great models and prefect for 6mm ! There were 3 poses of the little buggers ! ;D Image

Do you mean from the GHQ range or just some suggestion in general?
