There’s a secret model in all Warhammer world setups you can apparently win them finding them while there
Doctadeth
The white dwarf is in ALL setups as well.
Where's Alpharius?
I am Alpharius
watergap
How many points is that game!? Couple 10-thousand points??
Fairemont
Gonna go with at least 20,000 per team based on what i can see, but probably closer to 30k if there is stuff that can't be seen.
The titans alone are probably 30-40k, all the infantry really add up, i'd probably say 100k at the end.

That diorama is legendary. Every time I see it, it gets better. You can't even see all the titans or the true scale in the above pic...
...though it would be damn hard to fit it all in there. So much going on. And there's a single assassin hidden in there somewhere.
o4kill
Serious question: How does a spacefaring universe justify ground-based fortifications?
Many of their planets have massive fortifications to defend them from ground-assaults. Hard to stop everything from getting through.
Zaiyyash
It's 40k. Like everything else, it is justified by being sort of medieval and very metal.
Fair enough.
Put an anti- orbital cannon in the middle, and force the enemy to engage in atmosphere.
mmartin762
So... Was it a book, or a video game that spawned diorama merch, or is this like model railroads for a different kind of nerd...
D all the the above?
EvilDeadTed
It's a table-top strategy game.
oh ok thanks i really didnt know

Siege of terra!!!
RedCrown1
nope, those are nids(tyranids) assaulting this keep
TharrickLawson
Chaos, you can tell they're not 'nids by the fact they're fielding tanks and Titans
KharnApproves
No. There’s Ultramarines there. They didn’t get to Terra until it was over
battle of Angelus Prime
betterthanbardockbrolyandbeeruscombined
You’d think with a really good fortified position like that those monsters wouldn’t even be near the front gates, maybe blow the bridge?
everyonesFavoriteNazi
This is in a setting where a planetary war literally broke the galaxy in half. There are no fortified positions left.
tzahtman
Depends on how good the bridge has been.
ghosthendrikson
Warhunterkiller
Space Marines would just drop-pod their way into the center.
I think we're seeing a last stand situation playing out.
NocturnalGreed
Yup. Also fortifications are designed to let the enemy crash into them, not keep them away.
Acefowl
Have we learned nothing from Helm's Deep?
Elonth
Tyranids. The original Zerg.
you realise those are deamons right?
dude this pictures for ants. If it wasn't for the defensive position i'd assume that was snot buckets vs red dots.
while thats true, I don't think i've ever seen a tyranid warhound titan or land raider
Alozar
I don't think there is anything in the Warhammer Universe that could even remotely be considered a "fortified position".

and the hourly wage of the painters?
cloudandtrains
volunteers
They come out the machine expertly painted, but they strip them before they sell them just to spite customers.
fromanjoe
Disassemble them too.
It's all a plot to sell their overpriced sprue cutters.
Nah man, paintings the best bit! Well, it would be if i didn't have to paint so fucking much
silentwolf1999
Sadly i wouldnt put it past them
CerisCinderwolf
Yuuup... Exorbitant costs and the unfortunate luck of always running into elitist players have been enough to keep me away from it.
