    If we're going to do alternate heads, might as well finish it off w/ the Order Sergeant helmet (and give the Father-Engineer the Religious rule while we're at it).


    :laughing: Pretty much. Even with cybermuscles and an exospine to prevent whiplash injuries, ain't no such thing as a "comfortable helmet"!

    Also, we saw the monocle on Emily Handleman in Outrage.


    About 3.2 seconds fast (voice of experience here, I'm not sure I want to make a guess how many hours I've spent "sucking rubber" in a forced-air respirator).


    Will have to try that. GW technical colors are definitely worth buying these days.

    I've been on the receiving end of this link last weekend and can testify that it is very painful to go up against.

    I have the strong urge to report this post on the grounds of "Canine discrimination and Simian favoritism", but my dry sarcasm gets blank and horrified looks in person as it is... I can't imagine in this context it would be better received :fearful:

    Is that a 55mm base or are Angel's hands small?

    Well he's posted a gujia which looks the same scale so I think it's a 55mm

    Perspective might be fucky, but an O-Yoroi is shorter than a Vallejo paint bottle and aside from the Blackjack the S5 models are shorter than an O-Yoroi, which in spite of being the oldest digital sculpt isn't terribly off in size.

    Unless perspective is messing it up that's TAG size.

    Also looks like the... er... blurring is making the model hold a one/two-finger salute.

    Well, the poise of Knauf is better in DF than in Outrage box TMM, but what for the first then indeed? With Outrage no need in Druze sniper and with new Brawlers box no need in converted Brawler sniper either.

    To say the true, no need in Knauf himself too but for completionist reasons so I only hope he'll appear in some NAA where he will see some use. Linkable maybe?

    Honestly, I'd go so far as to say there are at least 5 units in each faction where Knauf is an option that are in greater need of buffing.
    Besides Kamau, from a quick search I can't see anywhere where there isn't an argument to be made that Knauf hasn't got a spot, be it by being cheaper than an Intruder or better shot than a Lasiq. He's absolutely viable in Yu Jing and only very recently was he objectively the best sniper vanilla Yu Jing had access to (and then Marksmanship LX change boosted Lunah to that spot)

    Is it just me, or are there a lot of mercenary snipers in this game?

    If you are paid to do a job*, would you go screaming in the middle of action with a naked pair of blade or would you sit your ass far and cozy with your dear sniper rifle?

    *and want to collect the reward without investing in a new vessel every time...

    Hmmmm. It is certainly TAG sized, and it seems to be an odd shape. We know Shasvasti is coming this year... Could it be a Shasvasti TAG?

    The wording implies a Yu Jing model, tho.
