Another update to the rules for tyranids in HH, in red, resulting from the last game that chaosreigns and I played recently. I also need to remember (a) that taking two pairs of weapons on tyranids gives you an extra attack and (b) my flying hive tyrant can JINK.

Gods yes, the Mantic Forge Fathers are truly Votann done right. If I were to get into Votann, they would be the models I'd get. What are you going to do for vehicles though? The Forge Father tanks look good, no doubt about it, but they don't have enough weapons and don't look speedy enough to replicate the League's of Votann Mars Mission vehicles. EDIT: Ah I've noticed you're using Imperialis Militia rules for them. The tanks will be more fitting for that army list, but what about the poor morale of Imperialis Militia units? That's most un-Dwarfy!

That's most un-Dwarfy! I'm only planning on having one vehicle, a Gorgon heavy Transport. My current plan is to use foamboard to build it, basing the design roughly on the squat land train. I am tempted to add a Leman Russ tank too, just because having a squat sticking his head out of a tank would be cool. I'm using the Warrior Elite and Kinfolk Helot provenances, along with discipline masters, to get their morale stats up as much as I can, but you're right, it still isn't ideal!

Another minor update to the tyranid rules above, but with some fairly significant implications. Again, highlighted in red.

Got my second unit of squats done! Next is the force commander and a human techpriest enginseer (imperial liaison).

hivefleetmanticore Has your gaming group concocted adaptations of 6th and 7th Edition books for other Xenos factions for the Horus Heresy ruleset? Orks? Necrons? Dark Eldar? Even Chaos Space Marines as rules for fully mutated Traitors? I continue to be interested in this idea as a new way to play the proper 40K ruleset.

I'm the only one who is playing an army that isn't in the new edition of the HH rules. Everyone else is playing space marines of one flavour or another. A couple of us are also building militia forces, but that is slow going...
