I've made my army choice and purchased the first pieces! To those about to rock: we salute you! #EmperorsChildren40k #Nerdlings

Decided to make a hobby goal for 2026. Since I've gotten comfortable with painting miniatures, I think it's time to start a larger project: a full 2000 point Warhammer 40k army. For now I'm considering my options. Let me know what you think I should pick or what your first army was. #Nerdlings

I'm just going to keep this thread rolling, as I make decisions and take steps toward a full army. My reasoning for picking the #EmperorsChildren40k is that I really love the Noise Marines, so I'd like to play as many of them as possible. This, though, is my first hurdle: Detachment #Nerdlings

I've looked through the detachments and most of them skew heavily to the melee side of the army, which does make sense for the EC. So how do I get more rock and/or roll in my life? The answer is the Rapid Evisceration detachment. The plan is to cram these clowns in a transport and go to town.

I'm calling it Rock'n'Roll Clown Car. The full list is still under construction (as I teach myself how to actually build one) but the core of the army is transports full of Noise Marines and some others. Is it on-meta? Nope. Is it funny? I think so and that's what's important.

So, since I'm still learning, what do you think I need in a list like this? Who should lead? Must haves: 3 squads of Noise Marines 2-3 Lord Kakophonists 1-2 C Rhinos 1-2 C Land Raiders Other options: Flawless Blades C Terminators King Clown (Fulgrim) That Other Clown (Lucius) Demon Prince (wings?)

Got a deal on the models from the Champions of Slaanesh box. This stack of plastic clocks in around 700pts, currently. A big first step toward 2000pts I'll start building this weekend, but I need to make a stop at my LGS to grab supplies before I start painting. #Nerdlings #EmperorsChildren40k

Had a productive weekend while avoiding the snow. Got a Lord Exultant, 2 squads of 5 Infractors, and 2 squads of 5 Tormentors built. I think I only need one squad of Tormentors, but it can't hurt to have a second. Next stop, Noise Marines and basing! #Nerdlings
