Age of Darkness 30K Mechanicum Army - for Sale!

Hi all,




Sadly its time to part with another army to raise funds for the basement!




Out of all my 30K armies, the Mechanicum hold a very special place in my heart. The models are drop dead gorgeous and I was able to invest significant time, effort and money into them to build a truly fantastic army!




All things must end though, so I will be loading this lot onto a mass conveyor and shipping them off to fresh battlefields to fight in the Omnisiah's name!


Link to the eBay auction below.

Happy bidding!

JSA Keisotsu with HMG

On the home straight with the Keisotsu now! Another great sculpt, Corvus Belli really knocked it out of the park with these guys!

I'm a bit undecided if I'll use the Keisotsu link aggressively in the active turn yet, mainly due to their poor BS10. I'll be relying on mods heavily to make that work, but with a linked burst 5 HMG I guess I can afford to take my chances!




Just one more to go, the Hacker, and the Keisotsu will be complete!

JSA Keisotsu with Missle Launcher

Continuing on with the core link team I finished the Missile Launcher Keisotsu.


This is the third model sporting the revised test scheme, and I think its holding up pretty well. I think my painting of faces is getting better as well ! (I HATE painting faces!)






Just one more Keisotsu to go and the link team will be finished!

JSA Keisotsu with Combi's

The more time I spent cranking out the Nomads the more I wanted to really get my JSA off the ground! I only have Senior Massacre and a WarCor to complete for the Nomads, so I decided that was close enough!


Its always super tempting to start with the big cool stuff (Daiyokai Dengetai, O-Yori!) I resisted the temptation though and decided to crank out the Keisotsu to get that core link team formed and ready to go. Besides, I already had a Keisotsu Combi done practicing the test scheme.


These are the two Keisotsu that come with the army box. I made a few refinements to the test scheme; firstly more contrast on the black 'combat joggers'! Decided to exercise a bit of creative license with these! Also the shading on the white is achieved with a light blue rather than grey. I much prefer this to the test model, so this is the standard of white I'll use for the whole army.





This guy is sporting a Bruce Forsyth chin as well!




More from the rise of the JSA soon!

Nomad Alguaciles with MIssile Launcher

The final member of my 5 man Alguaciles Core link team! I can now rock a fully painted link.


Alguaciles have a modest BS 11, but put his guy in a link team for +3, plus range mods, and the extra burst, he becomes a pretty reliable ARO piece and active turn hunter!
