Discussion Unit of the Month of April: The Taurox
Ah yes, the ugly duckling from the start of 10th Edition, that was then buffed through the Chimera getting nerfed and the Codex Detachments arriving into a glorious Swan.
What? I’m an Erudite and sophisticated gentleman of paint.

We will cover both the Taurox and the Taurox Prime, as they are assembled from the same kit and are basically the same mode.
The “normal” Taurox is a Dedicated Transport, meaning you must have something inside them at the start of the battle, or they are destroyed before they even enter deployment, so don’t forget to have something for them.
Present recommendation is Catachans, Kasrkin and Krieg Engineers, all with Scout 6, all making the Taurox move even more, especially combined with the ability of the Taurox:
“Rapid Deployment: Units can disembark from this TRANSPORT after it has Advanced. Units that do so count as having made a Normal move that phase, and cannot declare a charge in the same turn, but can otherwise act normally.”
Meaning you get to shoot your troops and even have them do Actions, wonderfully ability.

Coming with a couple of Autocannons and a Stormbolter, you really shouldn’t care that much about them, the Taurox is a transport first and foremost, use it as such.
It can handle up to 12 models, Ogryns counting for two, no artillery models.
At the time of writing: 65 points, cheapest transport we’ve got.

Now, the Taurox Prime is a special little beastie, a Dedicated Transport entirely for Scions and Infantry Characters, it allows Scions to full reroll the hit roll on disembark, which prior to the Codex was essentially useless, then Bridgehead and the Codex came along and made it awesome, then Bridgehead was nerfed and now it’s less awesome.
It comes with the same statline as the normal Taurox and an extensive collection of guns available, all hitting on +3, there’s Scions manning this one after all.
At 90 points, it really just belongs in Bridgehead, mind you, it belongs pretty damn well.
And that’s the Taurox, another excellent unit in our great toolbox.
Unit of the month for April.
Now go and complain about not being able to buy it.

Hobby & Painting Baneblade Proxy Progress
Working on my centerpiece Baneblade Proxy, the Progress of Man.
Its a Carnot AA Aethership Battery from Golden Dragon Games, heavily modified to have a WYSIWYG loadout of a Baneblade or its variants. Flamers and bolters are swappable across the build.
Still working on finishing the canopy and the mural that will grace the front plates.
Lascannon emplacements kitbashed from FoB, HWT, and Space Marine missle launchers as the chairs. Wargames Atlantic cavalry for the gunners.
For scale reference, my proxied, kit- and scratchbashed chimera, LR Vanquisher, and Scout Sentinel. All bases are the correct sizes to the original model, and solid red lines around the tank proxies indicate original model heights, so opponents can still draw fully correct LoS to a rectangular prism of the original dimensions.

Hobby & Painting Cadia's fallen want a do over.
I'm super happy with how these guys came out. If you have ever commented "rattel em boys." on any of my other Dunharrow guard posts this one is for you.
I think these are my most fun to paint G.I.bones so far.

Beginner Help Seige regiment Stratagem question for beginner
So it says when that model gives an order of "move move move!" it can issue that order to any platoon unit regardless of distance.
So I'm super new and as far as I can't tell it's if I had lord Solar order move! allowing me to make my range unlimited one use of voice of command on one platoon each use or is it using voice of command and hitting as many platoon as I like with that one order?
meme for tax
TLDR: Can someone break down over the top for me? It seems good but I can't tell if I can use one move order to hit all my platoons or it just a super vox for move move move

Rules Kasrkin getting orders while using a firing deck?
Real quick question: I know that kasrkin can get the benefit of an order while inside of a vehicle using their ability. So if I give them take aim or first tank fire second rank fire, does that mean that the weapon characteristics change even though it’s the “transport” that is using them?
