Chaksa's have a special place in my heart, as they were the first aliens I used in my little Infinity RPG campaign. Lovely work!
Yes, in SWF there's really no reason to ever field one. In vanilla Tohaa they can at least proxy as Chaksa Auxiliar. I so hope they'll give the Longarms something that makes them a more viable choice in N5. I love these models, there's just so little reason to ever play one. Nearing the end of my Tohaa backlog with this second Kaauri. A fellow Tohaa player told me two Kaauri are staples of all of his Tohaa lists, but so far I haven't found a way to include two of them without sacrificing something else I like more. Still, now at least I can :D And here are the two buddies together:
Well they look great so that is one reason, I too hope they get better in N5. Nice Kaauri by the way.
Thank you! Yeah, I hope N5 does something for them. Wouldn't be surprised if the profiles just got removed from the game entirely though. They're a unit not a lot of people would mourn. Anyway, here's the last mini I painted up for the upcoming tournament, the Kriigel with Breaker Combi Rifle. Not that I ever need one, but he came half-painted by my friend, so I thought I'd keep him as a Sakiel proxy or an HVT. Still not 100 percent at studio level quality, but maybe it's enough to let me participate in the beginner category of Corvus Belli's next painting competition? Yes, I'm still furious about that...
Axl is also currently one of the world's top ITS players, he's everywhere. I don't really think that spiral profiles are going to disappear en masse, CB is going to need miniatures that have already been produced for its essential range and SP comes from the era of digital sculpting.
If the Spiral exclusive loadouts make it into Tohaa, that would be cool. Then my Taagma sniper could stop being a proxy And who knows, maybe even Chaksa Longarms will finally get good and my friend can use this last one that I painted for him in his SWF without feeling bad :D
