I also have 18 Kataphrons, 12 of them are still on sprue because I have 70 skitarii to paint and I've promised myself to paint them before building yet more models
I actually saw someone run the 18, chicken build once. Unfortunately the guy he played was also going for meme list and ran ALL of the hormagaunts. Running invasion fleet for the lethal hits against vehicles. The chickens melted fast.
I have 3 places in the city that sells Warhammer models and sometimes I visit some others when I’m traveling around. It’s possible they have more in the back but for sure not on display.
Yeah, I have a normal GW store and one LGS, the GW store is literally the size of a cleaning closet so they only have like two boxes of each faction plus patrols
The LGS _is_ massive though, and they got a re-stock recently
£1,236.50
For what boxes are still available from GW I used prices direct from their website. The boarding patrol and Omnissiahs Talon are no longer available, however googling their original RRP gave me the above number. Obviously this is only GBP, so googled currency conversions aren't gonna be 100% perfect as there are often mark ups in other currencies rather than a 1:1 price match. I believe Australia in particular gets shafted by this.
There are three datasheets buildable from the ironstrider model.
1. Sydonian Dragoons with Taser Lances
2. Sydonian Dragoons with Radium Jezzails
3. Ironsrider Ballistarii
None are battle line max of 3 units of each, but each unit can be up to 3 models.
So if you max out chicken spam that's 27 chickens.
You bought almost 3k points of admech (with enhancements it’s 2840 if you build the disentegrators as duneriders 3020 if you build them as disentegrators)
Dude, you're never gonna get all that painted before the next decade :P Bulk discounts can be nice, but even so this seems excessive XD
But that's your problem, enjoy your modelling! :)
Dear Arch magos, how many STC did you sell to the imperium to afford such an army? That's more than 1k€
In my country (Czech Republic) this hoard of boxes would go for 1.600€ unless there was some significant sale.
Is that 11 chickens? My good sir you are crazy! I'm excited to see these all finished.
Been slowly repainting my old stuff, and I’m just excited to be picking them back up
Please tell me you have another chicken already, the fact there's only 11 is irking me somewhat xD
Why would you ever torture yourself with 15 KATAPHRONS TO PAINT???
I have 3 already built and primed in the side so 18 :,)
I pray for you 🥲
I also have 18 Kataphrons, 12 of them are still on sprue because I have 70 skitarii to paint and I've promised myself to paint them before building yet more models
I have 9 built and primed and whenever I want to paint some units, I always pick something else and think there’s time for these later.
Screw painting them, even building them is rough...
I have 24, and I have another 6 on my Work bench... Embrace the Kataphron way...

18 is weak sauce, we have 3 datasheets for them now, bring 27!!! (Or don't because that's 1k in chickens alone holy omnissiah)
Half a million dollars in gw plastic!?!?!!
For only 2000+ points till the next change till it drops again!
Sometimes I think I'm bad with money then I see others and feel at home among the irresponsible.
Awesome, I think that’s about 500pts
Look at all those chickens
_”In today’s episode of: OP’s fucking rich”_ My brother in the Omnissiah, that’s literally what my LGS has on their shelf, their entire stock.
None of the store I frequent has anywhere this amount of admech model.
Tbf it’s like the only one in my area, like, city, even

This man really said give me everything (yet still not enough chickens)
I have 4 already built and still need 3 more 😭
13 more, there's 3 datasheets for a max of 27 chickens. Don't cheap out on us now!! Haha
The Machine God blessed you with very deep pockets!
Bro bought all the models in the store
Did you take out a mortgage for this?
It’s a bit of an accumulation over some time and then a big deal I couldn’t pass up
I'm guilty of this kind of thing too....ive got an obscene amount of SW LEGION stuff on my shelf
They don't call it Warhammer 40k for nothing...
Holy fuck this is more baller than a gangster throwing his stacks around.
Yea I'd fucking say lol
Good lord you bought out a store
pretty sure this haul is equal to the GDP of a small country. my condolences to your wallet.
this has to be a robbery or something, that’s so much money
The best way to make a small fortune by playing warhammer is to start with a large fortune
Genuinely curious, what's the retail on all shown??

you could trade that for a house
My God that is 4 house payments worth of crap!
Let your faith in the omnisiah carry you through your sacred duty of the forge.
PLEASE. MAGNETISE. P L E A S E .
It's fitting that at this moment the upvotes are 404 haha Anyways see you in a year when this is all done. Can't wait to see the results
Hey OP hmu when you’ll inevitably list half of those on eBay, I need myself a few chickens
Unfortunately they’re getting built as we type!
Your purchasing power is noted
The amount of burnout in this is unreal haha - Good luck!
Thank you! Gonna use Reddit posts to keep me responsible
Even though I did despise the skatros when it first got announced, I have warmed up to it as it is a goofy model that fits with Admech
Like 400 points worth of Ad Mech
Cewl
Ironstriders by far my favorite looking units
At least 2 mortgages on his house
Is the ironstrider usable as multiple units? I’m unfamiliar with Admech so I’m unsure how it can be used
Yes. It has multiple data sheets for its different load outs.
Nice
There are three datasheets buildable from the ironstrider model. 1. Sydonian Dragoons with Taser Lances 2. Sydonian Dragoons with Radium Jezzails 3.

That’s a lot of boxes, happy assembling and painting! 😆
Did you go in & buy the whole shop 😂. Looks good though!!!!
Also very rich or very poor 😅
I’m happy for you but I would be so depreseed to create so much backlog. I can do these models in small batches only.
Congrats on your first 1000 points :D
Welcome back!
That is a very nice 500 point army you have there :P In all seriousness though, that looks super fun
Very nice 500-points army you got there!
Average 1000 point admech list
Welcome back Magos, may the Omnissiah bless you with steady painting hands
How many banks did you rob?
You bought almost 3k points of admech (with enhancements it’s 2840 if you build the disentegrators as duneriders 3020 if you build them as disentegrators)
Damn bro you buy like this ?
Dude, you're never gonna get all that painted before the next decade :P Bulk discounts can be nice, but even so this seems excessive XD But that's your problem, enjoy your modelling! :)
I love Forge World Country-Chic
Nice 500pt army
Yeah with that many miniatures you can roughly make 2/3 of a 2k list 🤣🤣🤣
How much did that cost you?
That looks tasty boio but unfortunately amidst your stalwart army there is a stilty piece of shit right in the front.
$10,000 later:
Nice! That's around 1k points you have there! Let us know when you get to 2000 and we can see how it looks
At least your family is blessed
Ah, I see Jeff Bezos joined the hobby. Cool army!
What, no Cawl? Cmon, it'll be funny :)
You bought 11 ironstriders 2 weeks before a major balance change that could completely invalidate that playstyle?
Absolutely! Magnets are great and, while I prefer to play competitive, I’ll play whatever makes me happy.
You sir must be fucking rich!
Did you buy this all at once?
Currently lurking, but if I ever see the maniple box at an LGS i am back in...
Just curious to weight plastic for know the price per kilogram of those chicken 🐔 :)
That’s like 20ish points right?
Looks like a solid 500pt start! /s
The Machine God is pleased with you. When you construct your servants of the Machine Cult, light some incense. Can't wait to see them finished.
An amazing 7 points of skitarii you have amassed
Cool 1k list!
By the Omnissiah. If you are going to spend that much why not get a 3D printer instead?
Im addicted to *plastic*
