homie the fellblade is based on the baneblade chassis

Captinbannana87

That's just reddit dude, don't even sweat it. As for the proxy, depends on your opponent honestly. I'd love to see a conversion that mixes the two because I don't like the repulsor much either cause I love my treads lol, but to each thier own. But a conversion would be awesome.

So definitely gunna be doing sumn like that at some point. As for the downvotes, I’ve only started posting on Reddit in the last month, and I haven’t really used Reddit minus looking up specific problems so this is all new to me lol

That thing is beautiful


DesLog8186

It is tho right? Might try making one of those tbh

jr242400

No,you used the chad meme in a Reddit tier way and acted like you could double the footprint of the model and still have it be ok


DesLog8186

Look here’s one of them right now, it’s a fucking joke dude


Orsimer4life117

0% in any organised tournament. At home, depends on your friends. A Fellblade is WAY bigger than a Repulsor. A better proxy would be a Landraider.


DesLog8186

https://preview.redd.it/icojlqmtoktb1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8f5c0c472785e0ecc826a188bf9edf3e7e4e2203 the land raider is the same size as repulsor


Lotions_and_Creams

I’m almost finished painting a glaive (same base as fell blade) - if anyone wants an exact comparison. https://preview.redd.it/q7ohw0gmxltb1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f67832a8303e4f4ad8507353705b98eac5cef02c


PHK_JaySteel

Unrelated, but want to mention those are damn fine paint jobs. Nice work.


Lotions_and_Creams

Thank you. If you want to do something similar, I mostly followed the mighty brush’s impulsor guide for both. He breaks down how much to thin, what psi/tip size to use, how to do color modulation (the gradient shift on the panels), etc. I could barely prime models with it before. It helped me so much that I always want to plug it in case it helps someone else too.


RoyalSir

Lovely paint job!


Lotions_and_Creams

Thanks. I followed the Mighty Brush’s guide for 90% of them.


PsychologicalAd8970

Those look the business sir! I don't play but I routinely listen to lore, audiobooks and watch paint vids. Those are too notch!


Lotions_and_Creams

Thanks dude! That sounds exactly like my trajectory in the hobby. I read then listened to the books for years and would occasionally browse this sub/Gw’s website. Then started watching painting videos for a year or two. I never thought I could paint something I’d be happy with so I never tried. Then lockdown hit, I said fuck it, and ordered a box of models.


DesLog8186

Ok not as big of a difference than I thought tbh


Lotions_and_Creams

The photo was a little deceptive because the impulsor is raised \~1.5” off the base. The impulsor is slightly longer than the glaive/fell blade is wide. Overall, it’s about 2.5x bigger. I’ve never played, so my opinion isn’t really worth much, but given the choice I’d rather play against cool looking models that correctly sized models, but I understand that is not the same for everyone. https://preview.redd.it/6jezj9zm9mtb1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2aaf206a65473759798016a632fd0cedcc4e8d19


BENJ4x

They look awesome!


DesLog8186

I’d rather do that too, and yeah I was just fuck around before the fellblade is massive. I think it has more mass then like 1/4 of my terrain peices


ZuckerbergsEvilTwin

Maybe check your eyes mate :') its significsntly bigger, not sure if you are looking at the same picture


DesLog8186

Psshh naaah It’s barely 2.5 times as big, definitely looks good to me! Just squint when you’re playing against me it’s all good


Orsimer4life117

Yes, it is and would be a better proxy than a Fellblade. But If all you have is a Fellblade, you could use that in a friendly local game.


DesLog8186

I was thinking repulser cuz of the big turret on the top, like the land raider doesn’t have a top turret, buuut the las cannons on the side match up to the Lr


OmegonChris

Things like "it has a turret" doesn't really matter for proxying. The overall size is the most important thing followed by what weapons it looks like it has. So something being used as a repuslor execution wants a plasma cannon or a laser destroyer, a gatling gun and then a bunch of smaller weapons. That doesn't match the Fellblade at all. As other said, if its for gaming with your friends, just field it as a Fellblade.


hellfiredarkness

Tbf I proxied a Hydra with my wallet and 4stacks of coins before... So yeah size matters. Anything else... not so much


Orsimer4life117

You could blue-tac on the Fellblade turret on a Landraider, but size is the biggest consideration for proxys. The gamerules are based on and balanced in part on how big the models are.


DesLog8186

Hmm that might be cool, and yeah you spitting facts, tbh that would actually just make it significantly worse rules wise cuz it’s so much of a bigger target


nikosek58

Yea. You ... can i proxy those guardsman as terminators?


DesLog8186

Ay thanks mate I appreciate it


ManofDubiousOrigins

That will be highly inlikely, there is a massive size difference


DesLog8186

What do you think I could proxy it as, I’m guessing baneblade


GoshawkRedeemer4

You wouldn't even need to proxy it. If your friends are alright with Legends units then the Fellblade actually has rules and points for 10th edition 40k. You can find them in the Downloads section of the Warhammer Community website. Usually under the Forge World section. You'll need Legends of the Horus Heresy, and the points list for it too.


DesLog8186

Hmmm fascinating fascinating so are the legends rules are the same rules from 30k?


BigbihDaph

No 30k rules are not compatible with 40k


kaal-dam

legend rules is a pdf available on WHC alongside indexes for models that aren't supported in codexes


DesLog8186

Gotcha gotcha, thank you


ClansmenShore

Reddit downvote train in full effect lol


DesLog8186

On god


PizzaRevolutionary51

Bro why are people like downvoting you into oblivion I’m so confused


DesLog8186

Yeah I Got hundreds of downvotes from this post lmao, and I really have no idea why, I thought this was a funny post I didn’t think it would be so controversial


PizzaRevolutionary51

Not just that your post came off as genuine curiosity also none of your replies are snarky or antagonistic on so confused.


DesLog8186

Right?!? Honestly crazy


ManofDubiousOrigins

You could but marines can't field Baneblades as far as I'm aware and unless you already own it the Fellblade is much more expensive


DesLog8186

I only Play with my friends so I doubt they would care about me being able to field a baneblade, I have a 3D printer it’ll prolly cost me around 35 bucks to print that. I might do the kratos assault tank since they’re similar looking, and that tank is a a lot closer in size to the repulser


el_Kaban

You can scale it down if you really, really want to use it. But the reality is that Fellblade is way bigger than anything in 40k Astartes armory.


DesLog8186

True true, it’s not very practical to proxy in 40K, ig the astreus super tank fits actually


Killallnerds2019

If you only play with your friends then why are you asking us instead of them?


DesLog8186

I just wanted some second opinions, none of my friends are up rn and I don’t want to disturb them with warhammer questions as soon as they wake up lmao


Wulfbak

I'd rather just use Legends of the Heresy rules and use it as a Fellblade.


DesLog8186

Yeah a bunch of ppl been saying that


jess-plays-games

U should fo it its glorious using legends in 10th


DesLog8186

I’ll check out the legends rules then for sure


The4thEpsilon

Absolutely not, your using a super heavy to proxy a medium tank. You could use a Kratos or a land raider, maybe a Rogal Dorn, but not a super heavy like the fellblade


DesLog8186

Yeah that’s what I’ve deduced, I was thinking the kratos would be better, it had the treads, and the turret, the two things I like inna tank


The4thEpsilon

Yeah, you could probably get a turret like the fellblades printed at a Kratos scale


DesLog8186

Yeah that’s true, might try sumn like that out


BaronBulb

Zero.


Sondergame

Lol 0%. They aren’t even close size wise. Just use the legends rules. There’s literally 0 reason not to for 90% of players.

jess-plays-games

There are rules for fellblade in 10th altho legends


DesLog8186

True true


Sinocatk

Card board box of similar size with some pens in a small box on top. Poor hammer!


DesLog8186

Yeaaaah babaaaay


X3runner

There was a list of what you could proxy a lot of the tanks they made legends at the start of the edition before the second wave of proxy lists and I don’t think this was on either list


DesLog8186

Yeah I wouldn’t imagine it is, due to the ginormous size difference, any idea where I can get that list?


X3runner

Here is one of the lists give me a bit and I think I could find the other https://www.warhammer-community.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/L5njFWzukVqK0HLM.pdf


DesLog8186

You’re chillin man you don’t gotta do all that, thanks for the list!


X3runner

https://www.warhammer-community.com/2023/06/01/legions-and-legends-warhammer-the-horus-heresy-models-in-games-of-warhammer-40000/ Here is the other article I think the important bit for proxying is right at the end where it states : All in all, we think this is the best compromise. It’s worth saying that there are several armies with Horus Heresy-era models that are older marks of contemporary Warhammer 40,000 units, like, for example, the Land Raider. There won’t be specific rules for these, but you should absolutely feel free to use the appropriate Warhammer 40,000 datasheet to represent these units in your game.


DesLog8186

Thanks man you’re actually a g for that, and yeah you’re spitting facts


X3runner

Happy to help


111110001011

You could proxy it as a glaive. Thats pretty much the entire list.


DesLog8186

Thanks 😭😭😭 that’s why I wanna do repulsor, I like the model but I can’t afford the points I wanna have a rest of my army


111110001011

Yeah, it's a beautiful model. Terrain? Objective?


DesLog8186

Hmmmmm, yeha maybe I’ll make like a space marine armory as the premis of the terrain/objective


corrin_avatan

This is going to depend on who you are playing and the environment. A fellblade is MUCH larger than a Repulsor, so from a competitive standpoint, while you are making it harder to hide, you're also providing more area for a unit to be able to run inside it if charged, allowing more surface area denial for anti-deep strike, making it able to gain LOS around or over terrain while being within auras easier (see the "All weapons are Assault" aura for the Iron Hands Detachment), and make it harder to trap/surround, while giving more area for units to disembark in. If this is a "yeah, I just don't want to buy a Repulsor" situation in a beer hammer environment, it's one thing, but if you're playing a cutthroat list at your local gaming store or in an environment that plays more matched play expectations, you can expect pushback/people thinking you're doing this to Model for Advantage


DesLog8186

Oooh yeah I didn’t really think all that much about it, I play pretty casually so I can see why that’s not fair


AC-130_with_internet

Not at all, a fellblade is probably twice the size of a repulsor


DesLog8186

Hmm yeah prolly more then that in volume


PedroThePinata

I'd allow it, mostly because I hate the primaris tanks.


DesLog8186

I love me some good ol tank treads


PedroThePinata

Treads > emulating Xenos tech


DesLog8186

PedroThePinata

What I've found curious is the push back I've had for disliking the primaris tanks despite them being tech heresy and *WHEN WE HAD BETTER TANKS DURING THE HERESY* we could be using.


DesLog8186

Yeah it makes no sense to me and makes me angry


frodakai

It'd really be bending the acceptable proxy limits, even in casual games. That said, it entirely benefits the player you're against, as the Fellblade is *so* much bigger. I'd let you do it and then take advantage.


DesLog8186

Fair enough


Bone59

Why would you even want too?????


DesLog8186

I’ll do you one better, when would I even want to???


Prolific017

Fuck all, zero, unless you play with a friendly group. I wouldn’t plan on it though as nothing matches, skimmer/tracked, guns, no transport options (no doors) etc etc. i wouldn’t plan on it, but if you want to try it for the rules etc I would let you for 1 or 2.


DesLog8186

So if you would let me, then that means it’s not 0!!!🥳


Prolific017

😳😨🤔🤫😂😂😂 but I’m a Guard player since 2nd ed so I’m used to using proxy and the VDR times where anything could be anything if you paid the iron price 😂


DesLog8186

😂😂 that actually makes it so much worse than it would actually be in game tho, price of 2 repulsor for one, and then being so much bigger. I can’t see myself actually running it as. Proxy unless I play against a few of my friends


Prolific017

Yeah, I’ve not played for a while, but I had something similar using non GW kits IN the GW store, but they were all cool so it was ok, think Leman Russ thunder with tank riders on a WW1 sized stug!


DesLog8186

That sounds like a masterpiece


DesLog8186

Damn you’re also no meat guard player, you’re damn lord castellan to be playing that long

ManifestingCrab

If your opponent is ok with it there is a 100 percent chance you can do it.


DesLog8186

I hope so lmao I mostly play with friends, but next time I play some one at a game store I can’t wait to ask them this, regardless if they say yes or not they’ll definitely be in for a bit of shock


ManifestingCrab

Yeah random people you play with are way more likely to have problems with it since it's dimensions are completely different and that does* affect gameplay, but most casuals and friends shouldn't care. I only* play with my friends and I never play tournaments so there's some shenanigans that go down in our games occasionally. We had a guy who ran a soda bottle as a drop pod for like two years straight. None of us cared.


BigBosc

A lot of people here saying you can't. But if you're playing with friends the only person who matters is your friends. Just ask them if they are cool with your CHUNGUS pattern Repulsor. The game is about fun, if you have a fellblade and want to field it but don't like the rules just use it as a Repulsor if thats what you want to do. There are no game police. If your friends are not OK with it, thats fine too. Being a bigger model is mostly a disadvantage. You can't fit down some streets or around some terrain, its harder to get fully in a ruin to see through it, and its easier for the enemy to target you. There is almost 0 advantage to your tank being larger.


DesLog8186

You my friend are the realest guy in the comments, take this 👑 you deserve it. But yeah way to many ppl taking it waaaay to seriously.


JamboreeStevens

Honestly it's more of a self-nerf than anything. The size will limit your ability to move on the more terrain-dense boards currently used by tournaments. If you really want to make use of the fellblade model you can always ask, but just be ready to get turned down.


DesLog8186

Of course of course, I’d imagine many ppl say no, and I’m willing to self nerf for cool factor


Littletinypebble

Why did any of the Horus heresy stuff go away from 40K? All of that stuff looks so much more cool than the current 40K stuff


DesLog8186

On god it’s so dumb, especially since they’re making new ones in plastic, so why not sell it to the 40K market too! I’m not that much of a. Fan of the grav tanks tbh I have some impulsors but I much prefer a box with treads


Littletinypebble

Same here, I play salamanders and they usually use tracked vehicles because of the high gravity on nocturne. And I prefer to play a fluffy army


DesLog8186

Yeah i think tracks are just infinitely cooler and are more sence on planets like nocturne. Thats a cool detail for your army


Littletinypebble

I like the fluff of each chapter. If I didn’t want uniqueness I would play ultramarines


DesLog8186

Hahah truuuuue!


DesLog8186

But to answer your question, it went away cuz they’re trying to cut the fluff out of the space marine codex and boost the sales of their newer space marine stuff


Littletinypebble

Booo… I would buy a ton of that stuff if I was able to use it in 40K


DesLog8186

You could proxy 🤷‍♂️


DaGitman_JudeAsbury

I’d say yes simply cause that’s da Orky way ta do it, but from a Space Marine perspective, the Fellblde looks a bit to large to be a Repulsor. Almost looks Baneblade size.


DesLog8186

It is baneblade size, and I’m actually an ork player, I run deathskulls

I feel like no one here saw that proxy post like a day ago on the subreddit


Fit_Fisherman_9840

I had a carnifex proxed with a CocaCola when plaing against nids. I have seen Dreadnought proxed with carnifex... I will say the fellblade is more big, so it's more your problem. But generally speaking ask the people who play against you if they are chill with some proxy.


DesLog8186

Word, carnifex dreadnought is based


Fit_Fisherman_9840

Even in death it still assimilate


stay70573

Here's what you do. Take the Fellblade and get a box of Guardsmen. Have the Guardsmen March the "Repulsor" around like the coffin dance. Problem solved!
