You think this is extreme?
…..
>>670569
(Yes, I know my kitchen could’ve done with a good clean before I took this picture).
Also, I have 2 joke armies (both marines), although the second one isn’t as big.
>>657957
(I hadn’t finished the Cadance reaver titan when I took this picture).
Also, I have built 4 more warhounds since I took these.
That Chrysalis one isn’t actually mine. I built it for one of my regular gaming opponents, who has uploaded stuff here as well.
This is one of his uploads >>757866 (his highest scoring one so far).
I have built my own Chrysalis themed warhound, >>794734 and the other’s got Sombra on it.
The other two were for the Hello Kitty army, one’s got Felicia from Darkstalkers on it (also in the pic with the Chrysalis one), the other’s got Thundercats emblems on it.
I find it fucking hilarious that you’ve got more points in a kitschy joke army than most snot‐nosed pubescent trustfund brats can weasel out of their parents for their actual army.
Just proof reading the points here, and noticed a slight mistake.
Marine squads. The units are 140 points, +10 for the veteran sergeant, +15 for the missile launcher, and +5 for the flamer.
170 points per squad.
The Bon Bon unit would be 112 for the squad (8 men), +10 for the veteran sergeant, +10 for the melta gun, +15 for the missile launcher, and +15 for the plasma pistol.
162 points.
Hmm…
Cost? Not really worked it out. Most of the marines squads were bought off E-Bay for around £12 a piece. The terminators here were also from the ‘Assault on Black Reach’ starter set, and I got those, along with the dreadnought, in my own starter set.
Most of the other units here were bought one or two a month. It doesn’t hit as hard when it’s like £22 here and there.
The titans are scratch built. I object to paying out over £300 for a model I can build myself for £20.
The reaver titan here (Cadance), cost a bit more to build. Around £40 in materials I reckon.
Okay, Cost to field.

Total cost to field absolutely everything I can field for the pony themed army…..
9836 points (If my points costs are worked out right)
My own Tyranid army hasn’t seen a game in a long time.
I’ve been collecting 40k armies for ages and my collection is probably bigger than most entire gaming club’s forces put together.
I have an army of almost every race in the game (never did get Grey Knights), and most of those could be fielded at apocalypse strength.
(Exceptions there are my Sisters of Battle force, which is around 1200 points, and my Dark Angels, (recently started and only around 1000 points), and my Blood Angels (currently stands at 3 models, one of which there’s a pic of on here >>705822).
Dread to think what it’d cost to replace them all now.
I still remember fielding my entire Eldar army (my biggest by quite a margin) and saying ‘I’ll take everyone on at once!’
I fired one salvo from my own army and wiped 3 players off the table. And this was back before the first apocalypse templates came out.
Wouldn’t want to try that again though.
Took forever to set up everything on the table. Put two 6 x 4 foot tables together end on end, and my Eldar army covered 3/4 of one of the tables. Everyone else deployed on the other table.
Nice. Man, I wish I still had my ’nids. I made them all bright colors and such, like tropical fish. Each squad had a specific pattern; and my spine-backed Carnifex was a giant-ass Lionfish. Hard to pick up, though, I had to pin it in a dozen places because I added extra spikes… terrible decision, ‘cuz they were all sharp.
Still, I don’t have ’em anymore. Someone walked off with my backpack of figures, and I never saw ‘em again. I ahven’t had the money since to buy more.
Not knights. Warhound Scout Titans.
The big one is a reaver class battle titan.
Also, thanks for the likes.
Doing this has given me a completely unique force, and they’ve been quite fun to paint too.
Only reason I actually checked back is because I just uploaded a pic of my latest recruit for this army >>813164 and was looking for a pic of my Discord themed land raider. There’s no decent images of it on here though. Think I may need to fix that some time.
Love the work you’ve done on these, really amkes the different units stand out more than ‘this unit has a green band on the base, while the command squad has a GOLD band!’
Changelings would probably be easier.
GW have stopped a lot of the dark blues, which sucks.
Abaddon black and Caliban green would probably get you a close match for Chrysalis’ colors.
You could even put her face on the sails of the raiders and ravagers if your painting skills are up to that level.
I can see your point as they will look like changelings in a way but eldar are jerks anyway so im gunna use dem
It would work for dark eldar
Pretty sure that colour scheme would work better on either Tyranids or Necrons myself.
Alright then. The Empress will surely forgive you for not foreseeing the events, as long as you win your holy battles. For the Goddess Empress of ponykind.

Already explained this.
I built and painted the Warhounds over 12 months before I built the Reaver. Didn’t fancy repainting either one.
The Reaver was originally going to be themed to both Cadance and Shining Armour.
Not sure how much further I intend to go with this force, but I have 4 more models underway at the moment.
Its Smashfucker you littles shit
Aww look at that, the BG Pony is trying to be clever.
One thing which is likely to cause some complaints is why Cadance is the Reaver when Celestia and Luna are only represented by Warhounds.
The answer to that is simple. I’d already built the Warhounds and didn’t fancy repainting them. The Reaver was originally going to be themed to both Cadance and Shining Armour, who between them were able to defeat Chrysalis and her entire army when Celestia couldn’t take on Chrysalis alone. Time constraints conspired to make me settle on a simpler paint job, as I wanted to get the 2 Reavers I built finished for a trip to Warhammer World.
