>local GW redshirt such a chill dude he gave me a few 25mm bases off the store's bit boxes when I asked even though I didn't buy anythingHobomaxxing over here
>>92620981GW stores have bitz boxes? damn we have to sign up for the monthly model, it is first came first served and half of the 30-40 they have are always gone, even if you walk in the with the clerks at the opening of the store. Must be very nice to have stores with bitz boxes.
>It's le funny!
>>92620916I have around a dozen write ups of various matches in my crusade series. All fluffed out of course.https://docs.google.com/document/d/19gJAXaA9-VaOLDujcWSrsKbxWyjoBWx7dWr-6RG8gbc/edit
>>92620993It's a good store, it's way too small for the amount of nerds that camp in it, but the last two of three managers have been the nicest guys you'll ever meet
>>92620981Now if you have sand and PVA glue you have some bases to test basing schemes on! Surprisingly it is easy to get PVA glued on sand off of a base with a hobby knife.
>>92621006Enjoy your nerfed to shit unplayable army
>>92621013>implying females characters won't be stronger, have better abilities, and girlboss their way to primacy over dumb arrogant male counterparts
>>92621006Do you think the female Custodes are fluffers for the Emperor
>>92621009I needed them for my old chink raptors because the vagina bases don't leave enough room for my big ass 10x2mm neodymium magnets. I'll use some epoxy as consolidation instead.
>>92621026They're just better custodes that aren't into the bigotry and blind hatred of the religiously insane imperium.
>Sallyman posts a thread related statement with plenty of OC>Polfags immediately start spewing their garbage and burying his post with their back and forth pointless whining..This is why we can’t have nice things.
Aside from the Tau, which are the least horrifying enemies for the Imperial Guard to fight against? Orks maybe?
>>92621035Good luck anon! I hope everything goes according to plan!
>>92621042I wouldn’t worry too much my guy, I’m a shit writer.
>>92621037Based Noble Bright
>>92621006You feel free to be a tool online. I'll answer questions about what I've painted when people ask about it IRL and tell them where I got the file.
>just watched a video of someone calling 5th edition a retcon
>>92621042You are getting nice things. You are getting female astartes and custodes.
>>92621052Eldar / Votann. Orks will eat humans.
>>92620993My old store I went to as a kid (UK) had an back room full of old kits and pieces. They used to give them out like candy as long as it wasn't busy. He loved to give you flamers or different helmets, etc. Haven't been in years but I'd imagine it's the same if the same guys work there.
>>92620916How cane marines even move their arms up with those big ass shoulder pads?
>>92621062I won't get kicked out of my LGS for it, either. They HATE GW because GW has been increasingly treating non GW stores like garbage these last ten years.
>>92621037You can't be religious and insane. You can be not religious, which is a sign of insanity. Or you can follow the wrong religion, where you aren't insane, but you are just wrong. And as much as some people would like to think that wrong is the same as insane, it ain't the case. Thought for the day: "The reward for tolarance is betrayal".
>>92620916Less a write up more a funny expect from one>super casual orks vs guard game with a friend from college >retarded metal music in the background and pure meme list on both sides >20 man grot unit lead by zodgrod>the push up to midfield object and then fire at a near by guard unit >this triggered the mass retaliatory strike that came in friends turn >hellhound blast grots with flame thrower in response >so many of them and a relatively low roll so it’s fine>he then fires a wyvren battery into them >and then another >and then another hell hound >just a heavy wounded zodgrod left >a near by Russ fires a hunter killer missile into him killing him >the entire time this is happening hysteric laughter as every unit opens up on one grot unit and begging to leave my lads alone as generic butt rock plays zodgrod faces when
>>92621081Yes, we all know GW doesn't consider reality when designing their miniatures. You aren't the first to ask this question, zoomer.
>>92621052Any Black Library book from a Guard perspective where they fight Orks describe them as absolutely terrifying. They're double the height of a human on average with the bosses being even bigger than that. They roar and bite the faces off of your friends. I'd rather fight an Eldar.
>>92621087Well, yeah, why wouldn't they treat non-GW stores like shit. They siphon profits from GW and are seen as an unnecessary middle man in the age of online retail. It only makes sense the GW would become hostile to them.
>>92620916I was shopping for paints at the LGS and there was a Kill Team game being played behind me. I heard a lot of laughter and turned around to see what was so funny.Turned out that Kill Team game was CSM (painted as NightLords) vs Arbites and both players were laughing because a chaos space marine was successfully mauled to death by an Arbites dog.
>>92621102People forget that Orks are funny TO Orks. To all other races they are barbaric, near indestructible, illogical beasts with an unending number of muscle bound monsters with unexplainable technology.
>>92621074Sounds nice, anon. My previous local GW was unfortunately manned by a single neckbeard employee who sucked off the company a little too hard. Very rude person and entirely unhelpful. The other local game stores in the area were far friendlier, but weren’t keen on charity either
>>92621074Man, so cool. No wonder people like their stores so much, or at least the old stores. Our stores are always the same, small, but always full of people playing. High prices and people getting angry at others buying/reserving "their models". Nothing more fun then watching a dude play with the models you want or worse need for your army to work, and then only get them 3-6 months later, or 12+months later in the post covid world. Only for GW to remove/nerf/change the units load out the next week. Almost killed my interest in AoS and w40k. Now I just comulsivly buy terminators. I don't play, don't paint, some are not even assambled. GW is happy and I can live with my dream of one day a terminator army being good, and me being "ready" for it.
>>92621081>>92621098This question has been answered in vidya. Specifically one about a smurf in third person. One that is getting a sequel.
>>92621081they just do, apparently
>>92621006>worst edition in immediate memory >all but two codexes have been actual dog shit or meh>factions getting gutted of cool options >we own this nowEnjoy?
>>92621130The question wasn't answered, they just animated the shoulder pad to go up with the arm without any real explanation as to how it does that.
>>92621102Eldar shoot monofilament that turns your innards to swiss cheese, at least the Orks just hit you with an axe
>>92621113From a pure sales numbers perspective, maybe. But game stores offer a centralized point of advertisement for GW and provide players a dedicated space to enjoy the hobby and socialize. Products alone aren’t enough to generate continued interest in a niche plastic and resin wargame, it’s the non-monetary aspects that keep bringing players back.
>>92621143And Necrons hit you with energy that strips away your armor/flesh layer by layer at the molecular level and is described as being incredibly painful.
>>92621137Well the first edition after a rules reset, which happens every two editions, isn't really a new edition is just preparation for the next edition. The real 10th ed, is going to happen in 11th ed. Well to half of 11th ed, because after half of 11th, GW is going to be mostly focused on the rule reset in 12th and just rushing to finish 11th.
>>92621137we say every edition is the worst edition though
>>92621150It's not niche anymore though. 40k, and tabletop wargaming in general, has been mainstream since at least 2017.
>>92621157What does that tell you? It tells me that the game has been getting worse with each edition.
>>92621124Important thing to add on to this. In universe at least within the imperium and possibly the Tau and Eldar the standard treatment of the orks is as an annoyance or all bluster and no real threat.They even partly play into this. Their equipment is ramshackle and shit, depending on what you run into this not that intimidating (imagine a few grots with an orc or two following behind. Even a normal civilian could subdue a gretchin if they needed to) A couple shitty half assed ork raids might convince a planet they are no serious thread and then a full ass waaagh shows up.
>>92621169no, it tells you /tg/'s incessant need to be contrarian isn't a good way to gauge quality
>>92621143>Eldar shoot monofilament that turns your innards to swiss cheeseI'm still taking that over orkish weaponised teleportation and force fields, thanks
>>92621156Not the anon but I'm just amazed that 10th is so bad that there is now a moderately active homebrew thread with some people seriously invested in making their own version of 40k. >10th has been bad that it became inspirational>It inspired anons to make their own 40k editionThey plan on making a crunchier ruleset alternative to OPR. I hope it succeeds because then there will be a perfect Ying Yang thing going on where there is a crunchy fan 40k edition and a shrimplified fan 40k edition to fall back on if GW makes an edition as bad as 10th edition again.
>>92621177>Ignore the people that actually play the game and just trust official sources that say the game is goodCome on anon, use your brain.
>>926211774chan and /tg/ might be contrarian.But it is undeniable that 40k as a game has just gotten worse and worse as editions go by.6th edition wasn't great.7th was a complete trash fire that almost killed GW and 40k with it.8th was a complete reset which was decent in the begining but went to shit in the end.9th was also like 8th, good in the begining and shit in the middle.10th is just diarrhea in terms of quality, it is beyond shit.
>>92621143Aren’t eldar like seven feet tall? Might not be bulky like orks, but they still tower over your average human.
>>92621184nobody here actually plays the game
>>92621137not that I agree with the /pol/ bait but>great edition for beer/garage hammer>no power creep in codex releases for once>all your options can still be modeled and house ruled
>>92621157This is the first one I’ve seen genuinely wide spread “this is a bit shit” consensus far outside of /tg/. From the terrible launch of indexes and bad codexes to shit getting gutted to legends 10th has been stepping on every rake if possibly can.
>>92621006I'll gladly accept female Custodes when GW actually use them as an excuse to reboot the entire line into pic related instead of the space dwarves with hideous weapons we get now. Won't ever happen during my lifetime, but that would be a fair trade.
>>92621191And 10th became diarrhea because GW actually shit their pants over OPR, even though OPR has never been a real threat to them. Just because a few popular YouTubers mentioned it, GW lost their minds, panicked and shit out the toddler version of 40k that is 10th edition.
>>926211377-9th were the worst editions with 7th being the absolute worst and 8-9th having garbage core rules. Riptide wings and Tshards deleting tabling armies was not fun. 10th has the best core rules but the absolute worst codex/army/unit format so it's a wash.
>>92621192And they move like creepy fae ninjas and shit. IIRC the Tau are actually quite a bit shorter and lighter than humans are so fighting them would actually be a breeze in comparison.
>>92621197>Engages in a shitty meme started by GW to dismiss any criticism of their productCome on anon, use your brain.
Post models
Now that the vindicator has had its price tag dropped to 175 for both loyalists and heretics, what are the best uses for it? Shoot at vehicles or heavy infantry? What about driving onto the middle objective so that everything is within range of your 24" gun and also hoping you don't die from concentrated fire?I want to run 3 in my csm army but am worried i won't have enough attacks against mass infantry lists
>>92621163Hardly. While it’s certainly expanded thanks to covid, your average normie won’t have armies of models for the tabletop or be playing dnd on a regular basis. Those things have cultural penetration i.e. people recognize them now, but not nearly the same level of actual physical engagement.
>>92621006>People don't realise these fanarts were made because of a guy I know was horny at the idea of femstodes
>>92621213>>Engages in a shitty meme started by GWYour post is a shitty meme started by GW
>>92621205So OPR is the reason for why 10th is a mess and is so shrimplified?
>>92621217>Doesn't specify what kind of modelsOk. Here you go.
>>92621205>Just because a few popular YouTubers mentioned it, GW lost their mindsAh so they're reverting the femcustodes change, seeing as sloptubers have complete control over the company yes?
>>92621236Where's the DEI?! You bigot!
>>92621202Yeah that's the problem with crustards, their entire range is fucking ugly as hell.
>>92621198That kind of depends/might not stand the test of time >great edition for beer/garage hammerTo some degree yes, but faction balance means it’s easy to run a near useless or totally busted army just taking cool stuff. But if you have two players that are willing to it ironically list build around useable, but not oppressive it’s fine >no power creep in codex releases for onceI think it’s too early to know if this point will hold. We only have 7(?) factions books out or soon to be put and obnoxious creep could start at any point >all your options can still be modeled and house ruledI understand this one, but half disagree. Rules should have been less stupid so we didn’t need to fix this/run proxies or whatever else
>>92621233One of the reasons. They also did it because a very vocal minority of players incessantly bitched about the game being too complicated.
>>92621242Are you assuming their race?
Working on putting together my Da Big Hunt army and I've got the things I definitely want to include but I've got a decent chunk of points left and not sure what i want to fill them with. looking for ideas.>Inb4 Da Big Hunt is badI dont care, I like my Sniggas and I think it looks fun, also using Glory Hog to potentially turn 1 charge a 9 model block of squighogs sounds hilarious
>>92621244>10 months in>We only have 7(?) factions books outGrim.
>>92621245How does 10th edition compare to Kill Team 2021 rules quality wise? I've been under the impression that Kill Team 2021 strikes a balance between shrimplified and crunchy rules this edition.
>>92621255its because 11th won't be a reset edition and you're expected to use your 10th codex for years to come. sorry admech.
>>92621258I can't really say because I haven't ever played Kill Team.
>>92621261Admech can't catch a break can they?
>>92621002Between the unique paintjobs and actually keeping a lore book for your guys, I think you might actually enjoy the game more than most of this general combined.
>>92621169no, it tells you that anon loves to hate things and there are so many players that there will always be a vocal group not playing and complaining instead
>>92621243how? they're not meant to be any bigger
>>92621254Looks like a list that gets blasted off the table
>>92621258depends on what you mean by shrimplifiedCurrent Kill team has lots of abilities and stuff, but it is total shrimp death of team composition, most teams are pretty static, minus a few. Whatever the case though, Kill team is straight up the most fun I've had, single box side games not wisthanding.
Power klaw and slugga for nobz?
>>92621198>>great edition for beer/garage hammerAll editions are good for this, even 9th or even 7th.A moot point.>>no power creep in codex releases for onceBy making all codexes complete garbage that make the armies shit.Space marine INDEX is fluffy than the fucking codex because the codex nuked the marine options.>>all your options can still be modeled and house ruledSame point as the first.Don't be a faggot.
>>92621301I hear KT is fun, but the listbuilding is lacking. Is that still true in more recent times? Kind of looking for a smaller scale game to play, full 2000pt games are too time consuming.
>>92621120Good boy!>grew up poor in a tough neighborhood in the early 90s>uncle has 2 well trained doberman>some clown tries to break into my grandmas house>uncle and I catch him>doberman corners him>"Watch that guy! Watch him!">guy starts screaming bloody murder>tries to run for it>"GET EM!">1 dog tears guy up really bad>I mean BAD>uncle drags guy into the back alley >police never show up>he's still laying there fucked up the next morningMan's best friend is absolutely terrifying when he gets that attack order.RIP Diesel.You were a good boy.
>>92621225Well he has a nice taste in women at least. Even ignoring the custodes part.
>>92621293you gonna make any suggestions or just be a cunt?>>92621309yeah, the extra S and AP is worth the -1 to hit compared to the big choppa, and Kombi Weapons are basically pointless in 10th, doubly so for Orks
>>92621273Personally I can’t wait until dark mechanicum is added at some point and then allowed to be busted to push models while admech cry in the corner.
>>92621202oink-oink
>>92621282It’s pretty well established at this point that Sallyfag is one of like two people in this general who actually plays, paints, kitbashes, and makes /yourdudes/ material. It’s why we tolerate him.
>>92621354>It’s why we tolerate him.You have no power to do anything about posting regardless, as much as plenty of posters deride him anyway
>>92621225>fanarts of women are for pornalways were, always will be, everyone knows
>>92621322>Is that still true in more recent times?Yes. It's been the case since release to now, as it's the result of how the system is fundamentally set up.It won't change until they release a new edition of KT, and even then they'd have to completely gut and redo everything to make any difference.
meganobz are underpriced but honestly just put them at the 35-38ppm price point and they're fine, hell they can probably go up to 40ppm
>>92621322again depends on the team, Inquisition is "the team that lets you listbuild" and has a lot of choice, blade of khaine lets you do any mix of the 3 basic aspect warriors. But you shouldn't let that keep you away from the game, definitely give it a go if any of the current KTs look cool to you.
>>92621361They hate him because he enjoys things unironically.
>>92621377People enjoy scat play but I'm still going to make fun of the guy consuming shit
>>92621006Based and this. 40k is meant to embody British Rock and Punk culture, as well as 2000AD satirical and bizarre style. Female Custodes are perfect way to convey these old elements to this day as much as the retarded incels and chuds hate it. Truth is, 40k was NEVER intended to be Le Grimdark and bleak, dystopian world, 40k was always meant to be lighthearted and satirical setting with a heavy emphasis on British Punk movement. Hopefully GW will add Human-Eldar gay couples next, and i think The Emperor should be canonically a transgender.
I told you, bro. I told you they were banning people talking about it.
Fuck tactical rocks and fuck topknot people
>>92621366Feel like meganobz will end up being a self regulating issue outside of tournaments running bullyboyz. Most ork players I know myself included tend to only run one unit of them because special boys almost always in a transport. I doubt they will be ubiquitous enough to really be a major issue, but they could still use an adjustment
>>92621344>you gonna make any suggestions or just be a cunt?I'll choose cunt now
>>92621391Human-Eldar gay couples will be revealed next, and yes, they will carry pride flags.
every fucking eceleb mini painter on youtube has that one fucking video titled 'i quit' or 'im givin up mini painting'. It's so fucking hack and annoying
>>92621339>Well he has a nice taste in women at least.>virgins>nice taste in women
>>92621386Weak and obvious bait. 0/10.
>>92621217worst torso option, baka
Taking some nice snapshots for my cringe compilation over Orkniggers saying Meganobz are fine but a little underpriced by the way. You guys are on crack.
>>92621404OK
>>92621382>scatI see the poltroon that was spamming scat and gay porn is back from his range ban and still can’t get his worthless fetish of his mind. It only makes sense you’d be one of the ones who hates on Sallyman.
>>92621191For me all of 8th-10th are miles better than 6th/7th. Worst ever rules combined with that being the era of finecast and Fantasy being squatted. It was the dark era of Warhammer. 7th was so bad that it got their CEO kicked out. But yeah I miss 4th/5th.
>>92621334That guy was probably just trying to feed his family.
>>92621398I feel like people are kinda blowing them out of proportion yeah, even in bully boyz your meat and potatoes when it comes to killing will probably be regular nobz, and outside of bully boyz (or without a warboss) it's 2 or 3 attacks hitting on 4s, Other than having an easier time wounding T8 and up (admittedly a pretty important thing) they're not that much better than terminators and noone uses terminators because the moment they clash with something with -1D you no longer have terminators.
>>92621414I have no idea what you're talking about, its just the go-to obvious reaction to the dumb take of "he's enjoying himself so you can't make fun"Guess you also never make fun of Furries? Trannies? Eldar Players?
This board should do something like /biz/ did and require verification before being allowed to post here. Instead of an email though, you have to provide proof that you actually play one or more of the games commonly discussed on this board before being allowed to post.

>Codex Inqusition comes out in 2 months>running inquisitorial stormtroopers in chimaeras with a couple of deathwatch kill teams supportingkino.
>>92621290They are way too wide and chunky for their height. They look like manlets.
>>92621442Nice model you posted.
>>92621441At the height of the femstodes tard rage someone was so annoyed that no one wanted to engage in his stupid shit and was spamming the thread with scat porn pics in a meltdown.
>>92621438>ummm outside the detachment that everyone is talking about, Manz aren't actually all that good!>They're just Terminators, please ignore the 2+ 4++ 4+++ statline that was the lynchpin of how Custodes won games in droves*snap*
>>92621449I've posted my models before, faggot. Where are yours?
>>92621460no you haven't
>>92621444Finecast was some new resin material they were trying instead of plastic to save costs. They didn't realize it warped under 'high' (e.g. your average day in texas) temperature. Every box would come with messed up models.
>>92621437>feed his familyWith a VCR and stereo equipment?Fuck that guy and fuck you too.
>>92621451He semed to be enraged that the jannie was moving the femstodes threads to /pol/
>>92621290They are tall enough (fuck the scale creep), but some models look atrociously squat. Just look at the helmets on the Warden, they are way too broad and only underline the comically wide torso.
>>92621462Yes I have. I'm this guy.
>>92621438Main thing I see their future being is >vehicle/monster hunters, but sniggas exist >anti elite, but we already have options for that a thought they might be the best direct answer >anti tarpit unit >elite tarpit unit I’ll probably use them as a self sustaining unit to rocket into something while the warboss and nobz beat shit up with actual support
>>92621467Otherwise known as items of value to trade for cash, which in turn can be used to buy goods? Yes, bigot
Hmm, today I think I will be problematic on purpose.
>>92621462>>92621485Now. Where are your models?
>>92621493Only today?
>>92621465OHHHH yeah, fuck every single finecast model i've ever come across.britain is fucking cold, i'm not surprised
>>92621453That’s pretty appeals to oranges. An entire army with obnoxious staying power vs a unit with similar staying power. In a faction that is mostly hit hard and die fast
>>92621462Aaaaaaand silence. Funny how all you "post models" faggots go quiet whenever you're asked to show yours.
>>92621502The sun never sets on Commorragh
>>92621492>used to buy goodsWe all know that guy wasn't going to buy food for his family>bigotYou're worse than dog food.I hope a pitbull eats your face for making me reply
92621453I'd give you attention since you clearly crave it but you're just making shit up so what's the point really. You forgot they actually have a 3+ invuln and if they die in the tabletop you can hit your opponent with a bat and take his wallet too.>>92621487They seem like a pretty competent anti-vehicle threat and whatever they clash into (except -1D stuff) will get seriously roughed up while they will take almost no damage in return. So I think they're a good missile to launch during your Waaagh turn and then they can kinda make a mess and probably take more to remove than they should be able to.I think one unit will probably be staple, and they'll only really be maxed in Bully Boyz because 2 turns of a bunch of Meganobz with a 4++ FNP is silly as fuck and basically presents a profile that can't be interacted with.
>>92621451>>92621468I remember that 40k thread.It was a real SHITSHOW.
>>92621497
>tfw you make a character model out of spare bitssorry James, not buying that one
>>92621522Right, a faction that is faster and cheaper. Custodes mostly lost because of lack of trading units, screening etc. Orks are fine covering that while also having the 2+ 4++ 4+++ models that you can't remove. They're fine though. >huff

>>92621529>but you're just making shit upWhich part was made up?
>>92621558Get a trip already
>>92621529Might actually get more use out of a small unit by running them in dreadmob instead so they potentially hit even harder and will have a mek with them anyway if you plan on a small missile unit.
>new Mandrake kit comes with like 16 extra heads>They're all half-heads split at the face because the back of each head is part of the bodyWhat the fuck can I even use these bits for? They cut them up specifically to make them worthless.

>>92621568No.
>>92621586This kind of shit is why they mostly do topknots, if the hair touches the shoulders, it becomes locked to a single model pose.
>>92621550Me too. I use old credit / debit cards and make license plates out of them. The ones with raised numbers are the best of course.
>>92621586put them on the night lords bases/armor
>>92621586Just drop them on any dark area of your other models, as if they're peeking out of the shadows
>>92621538Nobody really runs orks as screening or chaff units and haven’t for a while now tho. Nobody is serious going to run multiple maxed out units of meganobz and then also shove hordes of boys and grots up the boards to distract and block.You would probably be running close to points limit just fielding that alone with no serious AT or anti large unit options
>>92621582Probably a good idea, the mek also makes them a fair bit tankier. The main issue I see is the WS, unless you get them rerolls or +1 to hit they're gonna fall on their faces more often than not
>>92621170You are forgetting intentionally to mention among the greatest perils faced by these factions were Waaagh! by the Orks.
>>92621120Hes smiling!
>>92621627>How can I possibly afford 40pt Grot units when I'm already bringing 18 Meganobz (540pts LMAO)Are you clowns going professional soon or are you keeping it as a hobbyOf course people run fucking Grots, what the actual fuck are you talking about
>>92621254Put some beasbosses with the beastie boyz, then some stormboyz if you wanna do secondaries
>>92621629At least in the imperiums case they see, to publicly had wave such occurrences off and disregard them as once in a life time occurrences
>>92621468Is that where all the threads have disappeared off to? Thought it was suspicious how the rage baiting threads stopped so suddenly. Kind of funny that the shit here got shipped off /pol/, just like real life waste management.
What's a good proxy for the hellbrutes? The point decreases make me wanna try him out in world eaters, but the model is so fucking ugly.
>>92621042no, the reason we can't have nice things is that corporations take their fanbase for granted and they shill to trannies and other deviants in an effort to gain nee customers, arrogantly thinking they will never lose their core. I've stopped buying models and I shan't be buying my factions new rulebook. hell, I may never play again.my whale wallet will be missed.
>>92621680>I may never play again.The void at your LGS left by your centennial combat patrol game will be sorely felt
>>92621655oh stormboys sounds fun, would you think a couple 5 boy units to just be objective monkeys or bump em to 10 so they could potentially kill something if they need to?
>>92621652>I can’t possibly kill TEN grots before the mega nobz get to me Not even what I said anon. People are parking grots on points not using them as meat shields. And boyz which you didn’t even mention would get really expensive if you tried to run them as meat shields for slow foot slogging meganobz that will either get killed before first round is over or you invest in like 175 each for full units and end up with a cluster fuck that will be lucky to accomplish a tarpit
>>92621081Real answer is - the pauldrons are mounted on pistons that adjust them to not restrict the range of movement. You can see them sculpted on Abaddon's mini or in the "arming of a space marine" official video.
want to have one of my bikers leaning hard with his weapon out like a bosozoku, should I swap the arm for one trailing behind a bit more/chop the leg and repose it to be ready to catch if the bike starts to tip or leave it as it is
Are 40k world eaters capable of tactics and stealth or are they just raging retards that M1 into machine gun nests
>>92621694>oh yeah well you aren't good enough for us! git out!!!!oversocialized faggot detected
>>92621668Box naught maybe? Most options would be pretty easy to convert or sculpt and he’s about the right size.
>>92621704>>92621655also, posting some dudes i painted last weekend as a thank you for the ideaim not a good painter plz no bully
>>92621599Then rob some local KFC
What are some fun instances of the Imperium being hilariously wasteful with human lives and materials?
>>92621722depends on the writer and warbandgladiator cadre 331 for example are barely ravaged by the nails somehow and are all about finding the best honorable duels possible
>>92621708I don't think you understand what screening means.>slow foot slogging meganobzAdvance and charge meganobz with deepstrike/rapid ingress available
>>92621680They don't do it to get new customers, they do it to get that free ESG money from large venture capital firms. And they can give GW more money than all their customers combined ever could so it's only natural that GW would be more loyal to them than to their customers.
>>92621542>GSCBug Juice (grape)>Fire HawksRocketfizz Habanero Soda
>>92621723>oversocializedis this the new buzzword insultI've seen it like twelve times this week
>>92620425Not for no reason, because it got shot at and you parked it in front of an anti-tank weapon. >>92620405A degree of randomness has been a staple of wargames since they began, we may as well just be playing fucking Topp Trumps.
>>92620998This is closer to Skaven in AoS than Orks
>>92621704I'd do 2x5 for a smaller deep strike footprint and flexibility, but a 1x10 could be good if you pull Capture Enemy Outpost
How many sticky objective units is too much? First time building a list
>>92621734What are you worrying about grow-lamp anon? perfectly serviceable paintjob especially for Orks, you've got a lot more of the ladz to get through than other armies!
>>92621763>A degree of randomness has been a staple of wargames since they beganSure, thats why the game is still fundamentally dice led
>>92621734Like the warpaint anon
Hey anons,I have boss snikrot, 20 kommandos and 6 deffkoptas. Where should I go from here?
>>92621773>sticky objectiveEwww, disgusting
>>92621735>kfcI don’t bother with that trash. Mary Brown’s? Now that’s the good shit.
>>92621778Right, and I just enjoy a bit more randonness than you. Whats wrong with that? I prefer Mordheim, Epic 40K and Necromunda over 40K anyway, and they all have an extra level of chance involved, I just never really felt like it needed to be removed from 40K itself. Its all starting to feel a bit abstracted from what the game used to be for this old fart.
What is he holding
>>92621680I don’t know if it’s even that at least fully as much as social media is a cancerous lying gauge of public intrest and what they want which they already barely care about.>be GW marketing fag >check social media >random big influencer A talking about how new box is amazing >random big influencer B painting a pride flag on a marine and talking about how it’s definitely time for more inclusion >check twitter >generic lore short channel >some pride flag every country current in a clown it’s flag user name posting about how it’s time for female marines because it just is >wow this must be what the player base wants right now >actual normal users exist in small friend groups, on small forums, or discord servers talking about whatever the fuck other then dumb current event politics

>>92621815This L.
>>92621772gotcha, also what paint is that on the bases of those boys? I've been planning to get some sort of reddish-mud/clay texture paint for the bases of my army like that>>92621774>>92621784thanks bros, I like Savage Orcs in Fantasy which is why i gravitated towards sniggas, and I thought itd be fun to give em similar warpaint, when i get around to painting all my squighogs gonna put it them as well
>>92621815>my overlord>the old ones send an offering of their surrender:>their last fuck to give
GORKANAUT
>>92621720For me it feels like the weapon is a bit to close to the ground. I'd fear that some uneven ground might fucke something up. Apart from that I like how it looks.
>>92621840>I like Savage Orcs in FantasyAlways wnated to collect fantasy Savage Orks myself, but no-one I know really has much interest in playing it and its not very popular in my LGS, which isnt even particularly local either.
>>92621547Are you fucking blind? They are fucking fat compared to a primaris.
Anons, it finally happened. I recognized someone from my LGS posting in /40kg/[SPOILER] Don't worry, your secret is safe with me :^) [/spoiler]
>>92621720just get a jetek model from kt cassius
>>92621871this is why I will never post models
>>92621871So what? These things happen.
>>92621485youre allowed to thin your paints
>>92621871one fear
>>92620916Why is everyone acting like Bully Boyz is gonna be scarier than Green Tide? Melee is still shit (lmao at oops all ctan being basically unchanged and halving all your damage) and most lists are already equipped to nuke the shit out of elites and the transports they ride in on. 120 t5 bodies with a 5++ sounds infinitely more terrifying when blast weapons are skewed around t3 t4 bodies, and then they have 1000 points left over to kit out however the fuck they want and then some.
>>92621871Which one?
>>92621871You weren't subtle about trying to confirm my models, Jeb.
>>92621547>>92621864I gotta go with first anon, they're pretty god damned similar in height and only "fat" when you add their ornate shoulderpads on. Torso to torso are near equal in size.
>>92621864wtf custodes are that tall , i thought they were shorter
>>92621668I'd recommend learning to love it. The model grows on you.
Would would a typical Guards general think of Russian tactics in Ukraine?
>>92621914Getting at least an extra foot out of their silly hats. : )
>>92621871I've already posted enough material to get doxed many times over, don't really care.
>>92621586use the spare heads and arms on sea-elves i suppose.it'll give you a bit more variety, but still look visibly like mandrakes at least from your opponents POV 4 feet away across the board.
>>92621916WW2 winter russia vs germany is imperial guard actics
>>92621840Bloody Land texture paste by AK, dry brushed black then silver. Purple alien tufts from Gamer Grass.
>>92621722They start tactical, then the rage takes over and they charge into machine gun nests.
>>92621915When is that supposed to set in?I've owned once since I bought the old Start Collecting CSM box, and I still fucking despise it.
>>92621815Jokes on you, it was a fractal matrix all along! You're now forced to bear the weight of TWO infinities worth of unpainted models in your hands!
>>92621916"Way are they sending in so few infantry? More meat into the machine, thats the way to win any war!""Wheres all the Hellhounds to burn out these towns and treelines?""Definately needs more Basilisks".
>>92621900I'm not telling :^)
>>92621864No, they aren't, you fucking idiot.
>>92621915Fuck no, shits ugly. If it was the alternative model I could tolerate it.
>>92621668It's a super skub-y model so you might hate it too, but the Khorgorath from AoS is perfect for a Helbrute proxy and can be obtained relatively cheaply second-hand.
What programming language does every faction use? Orks would absolutely use java
>>92621933That's your fault for picking the ugly face.
>>92621668Just use a regular boxnaught and chaos that fucker up.
>>92621956orks would use rust not java
>>92621961I didn't build it at all. I used the parts for various conversions.
>>92621968Safety and Orks don't meld
Also, about the Custodes. Astartes select the most hardcore, toughest, strongest men in the galaxy to undergo the gene therapy. Even Chaos SMs put effort into selecting the strongest of the strong. But….not so with Custodes. They accept the ritual donation of Terra’s noble children who either make it or don’t. So, how are Custodes so much better than Astartes? Is it all just having the more premium gene seed and bespoke artisanal gear? It’s not just training because that’s all Astartes do besides fighting — meanwhile Custodes train constantly but definitely won’t have the same level of actual combat experience. So really I don’t get why Custodes are considered so much higher than SMs.
>>92621936>Two infinitiesthe number of models on each level increases exponentially>>92621956word bearers use HolyC
>>92621956>Orks
>>92621853The image I've got burned into my head is from a clip of some documentary on boso's I saw years ago of this dude screaming around a turn slamming his pipe bat against the concrete as he dipped into the lean >>92621872It's close but I don't really feel like buying a white scar just to chop all the white scar off of him
>>92621992
>>92621981It’s literally just in universe power creep because everything must be the coolest and best thing ever or how else would they market models.>there was an alternative timeline in which custodies actually aren’t that special individually being just super soldiers by human standards, but get all the best weapons and tactics exclusively like an actual elite ceremonial guard would.
>>92621956>Orks would absolutely use javaif (condition.equals("NoDakka")) { status = "More Dakka";}System.out.println("Status: " + status);
>>92621983Based
>>92621983Wait, is Erebus Terry? Or is Lorgar Terry?
>>92622009>but get all the best weapons and tactics exclusively like an actual elite ceremonial guard would.I prefer this universe, I very much dislike the current iteration of Custodes.
>>92621668a War Dog. Its about the same size, but a little taller. Plus it'll look good in WE colours
>>92621992Wow, it’s like interacting with a real, actual Ork player!
>>92622045??? wardogs are like double the size
>>92621981>So, how are Custodes so much better than Astartes?The transhuman procedures are so advanced that the end result is arbitrarily superior regardless of the starting template which is either irrelevant or requiring a measure of genetic purity/compatibilityit is a honour more than a selection in the astartes case the procedure is intended for relative mass production and compatibility with the various humans all over of the galaxy, so they select first for fitness and only secondarily for compatibility
>>92622045is your penis 4 inches but you tell your boyfriend it's actually 6 and a half?
Any news on the sisters new model/unit they teased?
>>92621668>What's a good proxy for the hellbrutes?Chaosify some dreadnoughts, dude
>>92622045Are you fucking retarded?
>>92622032Kor Phaeron is Terry.
>>92621956While(targetIsAlive){ShootDakka();};
>>92622045This. I run them instead of helbrutes because both versions look like shit
>>92621668you don't like his gross stubby little flesh legs?
>>92621465>>92621506They came warped in the UK too lol. Nothing to do with Texan weathers. It was just shit.
>>92622086>Kor Phaeron is Terry."RUN THEM OVER LORGAR! THEY GLOW!"
>>92621936>your tesseract labyrinth, my lord
Also, I wonder what the Haemonculi take on the Astere gene seed is. Would they sneer at it considering it more Warp witchery than fleshcraft (and could totally put it to shame if they felt like it)?
>>92621871genuinely my worst fear. i post shit here i wouldn't dream of saying to people i know.Post games.
>>92621668slap some greenstuff on some brutalis legs to make him taller
>>92621812Because its not amount of randomness, its extremes in outcomes. Someone hitting you, wounding you, failing the save and them rolling a six for damage is already 4 layers of chance if not 5 with a FNP. But at the end of the day the worst outcome is still 6 damage, not 250pts of tank that is immediately rendered worthless if not dead on first contact
>>92622052Just glue the feet claw-things directly on the knee joint.Easy as.
>>92622045yeah, other anons are right, wardogs are too biguse warhounds instead!
>>92621992a window into the mind of your average ork player
>>92622143Haemonculi love tinkering with space marines. The Ossefactor gun is implied to have been invented after the Hex captured and experimented on some Black Dragons.
>>92621956admech write in assembly but every computer has to run TempleOS
>>92621081Sadly, they don't stretch like pic.
>>92620916Was it ever scanned? Not seeing it in the gofile.
>>92621668Atlan Forge does a fair few Helbrute stand-ins, you can fid a lot of them being sold on Etsy.
>>92622159But getting your tank wrecked on the first shot was still extremely unlikely, but it was more fun just because it could sometimes happen.
>>92622192Krillin ejaculated inside a robot
>>92622209Cyborg, not robot. The distinction is very important.
>>92622125>Emperor’s got a HERD of pilgrimcattle
>>92622178I'm just glad that the venn diagram for "Ork Players" and "weird fetish coomers" does not really overlap at all.
>>92622209She was a human being given augments. Cyborg is the better phrase.
>>92622207If the basis for you level of fun is in some rare cases just getting fucked then just roll 2 dice at the beginning of the game, and if its double 6 I'll shoot you. How about that?
so did they retcon fem custodes yet or what
>>92621888If I wanted painting advice, I'd ask for it. Also, post models or shut the fuck up.
>>92622193I've only ever found a potato scan without lore and an OCR type version.
>>92621081That's one of the admech's best kept secrets
Given Shadowsun's proportions there might be some truth in this
>>92622159It's kind of a moot point when the game is super lethal and has so many rerolls now that it's almost not even random, your biggest model WILL die first turn unless you hide it. Now the game doesn't have wacky results or funny wound charts or anything. You just get wombo combo'd off the board.>>92622238>post your models!>posts shitty models
>>92622254Post models or shut the fuck up.
>>92622245Musclemommy posting was deemed gay and reddit by the council. We like women that look attractive around here.
>>92622225Hard to be a coomer when your entire faction are sexless green retards that reproduce by getting shot
>>92622232I find it amusing at how tilted you are by the concept of a little extra randomness. :D I enjoyed it, but the game doesnt cater to me anymore, you already won the discussion - GW backed your views with recent editions of 40K.I just don't particularly like it. Calm down anon, don't take it so personally.
>>92622254>your biggest model WILL die first turn unless you hide itIf you're putting it in view of all your opponent's anti tank, sure. Thats also absolutely fine, it should happen. Against smaller amounts of fire no, its absolutely will of the dice.>Now the game doesn't have wacky results I wouldn't call your vehicle getting turned into an immobile brick any more "wacky" than rolling a 1 on my psychic power and eating mortal wounds
>>92622261Post good models.
>>92622245
>>92622277Post models or shut the fuck up.
>>92622277>>92622288most podels
>>92621750Please anon, your mom and I are begging, take your medication
>>92622302>>>>>>>>>>>AI SLOPPA
>>92622274There's a reason why games look like gated parking lots now. It's just too lethal to play the board anymore.Also yeah getting your main gun shot off so you have to tank charge, or having your treads blown up in a bad spot so you get eaten alive is much more wacky than "I shoot at your tank, I use this ability and this stratagem, you died".Even worse, you actually just remove the tank off the board now. You don't even explode them or use those adorable little smoke markers.>>92622288boohoo nigga
>>92622320Post models or shut the fuck up.
Gentlemen, meet your new 40k faction
>>92621395>fuck topknot peopleTAKE IT BACK
>>92622335Squats are already in the game though?
are there other helmet options for custodes? i hate how custodes helmets but the rest of the body looks good.
>>92622320>There's a reason why games look like gated parking lots now.Because you're a pussy with a bad table setup
>>92621936BEHOLD
>>92622288>Post models or shut the fuck up.Nah. Not for you anon.
>>92622357Post models or shut the fuck up.
>>92622335We already have Ash Waste Nomads, Genestealer Cults, Custodes, and an ineffective and decrepit Emperor.
>>92621946Your Gary Stues are FAAAAAAATTTgo cry me a river
>>92622335What, a stupid CC focussed Guard army?
>>92622349You can look at the FW models but >FW. Other than that, if you have female heads they are now lore friendly.
>>92622355>bad table setupYeah, also known as "a table that isn't pure tournament rules because literally any open space is just death. Lmao try having a "convoy attack" type game now. First turn wipe.>>92622324
>>92622282That looks uncomfortable. Like she's always falling forward while having her legs forced apart. Probably sucks pretty hard to move around in that thing for hours or even days on end.
>>92622380>Yeah, also known as "a table that isn't pure tournament rules because literally any open space is just deathNah just one set up well>try having a "convoy attack" type game now. First turn wipe.Ambushes are notoriously extremely lethal affairs. Based of GW to model it realistically
>>92622361
Can I have all the codexes released so far please?
>>92622400Sure here you go
>>92621052Cultists/Renegade Guard as long as there are no CSM or demons involved.
>>92622370>Stues
>>92622399That's not yours. You saved that pic from the other thread and are now trying to pass it off as yours. If it really is yours, prove it. Post a pic with that same model and a post-it note with today's date and time on it. You can even call me a faggot on the note if it makes you feel better.
So…what’s the actual strength of the Tau Empire currently? They’ve gone through, what, 5 or 6 expansion waves now? One of them got eaten by Warp monsters. But still they’re a lot stronger than they used to be. How much stronger? Would they be considered a sector-level threat to the Imperium or still just a local annoyance? Are they more of a serious threat now because of the sundering of the galaxy really fucking up the Imperium? Or are the Tau still getting held down by Tyranids and Orcs like everyone else, just in proportion to their footprint in the galaxy? Eldar seem to avoid them / leave them alone, DE just do their usual pirate dickery, but why haven’t they woken up any Necrons? Would that be like the Dwarves waking up Durin’s Bane?
>>92622400anon, just get them on the PDF share thread ya big daftie.
My GSC Combat Patrol is ready to played although I haven't finished up painting it. I'll see if anyone plays Combat Patrol at the LGS, if not I'll meet some people.I did a general reading of the core rules but aside from the phases like move/shoot/charge etc. in that order, I don't really know what I'm looking at. Any video suggestions on that end?
>>92622400sure here's one that's been released
>>92622424>ready to play>haven't finished up painting>a & !a
>>92622419Its not mine, you didnt specify it had to by MY models.

>>92622437Ok so now we're back to: Post models or shut the fuck up.
>>92622440Because 40k hasn't already ripped off Dune enough, right?
>>92622335man they did stilgar dirty in the new movieseven moreso with how well javier bardem fits the book character>>92622450yes, you think it's a coincidence all the GSC and HH models are getting more and more nose pipes?
>>92622441Nice
>>92622444>Post models
>>92622368>Ash Waste Nomads, Genestealer Cults, Custodes, and an ineffective and decrepit Emperor.Not enough. I need more.

>>92622466>not official models
>>92622424play against yourself and things will make sense, even if it just cutting your combat patrol in half. it doesn't even have to be a game either, getting use to doing movement, measuring, and rolls is half the game time. Although you're playing GSC so you have more to think about.
>>92621542Answer is always Jumex
>>92622430>240 points for eversorWere the assassins *that* much better back in the day, or is this an example of general points deflation?

>>92622508Go back to /v/.
>>92622508why do you want it, the knight dominus looks shit compared to the normal knights

>>92622490>Yeah, tournament, because you're gay.Didn't say that at all - tournaments are set up to be fair and as balanced as possible, but you can absolutely have asymmetric boards that are good

>>92622533You've already been caught and admitted to posting other people's models, so unless you provide a timestamp, I'm just going to assume everything you post aren't yours.So: Post models or shut the fuck up.
>>92622356>Don't talk to me or my C'tan's son ever again
>>92622550I don't like custodes at all. GW butchering their codex AND their lore to tank their popularity pleases me greatly.
>>92622547I'm afraid I set the level height too large on that one, it made the steps too obvious. Resin had a satisfying translucent effect though.
>>92622532thats the nicest thing anyone here has ever said about my models, thank you anon.
>>92622550That's not what "literal" or "cucks" mean.
>>92622516Because it's all we're missing that we can reasonably expect to get. GW isn't gonna make chaos versions of HH knights so all we have left is an official tyrant model then GW can call CK done and focus on what we really need, updated vespids
>>92622553>I'm just going to assume everything you post aren't yours.Ok, suit yourself. : )>>92622553>shut the fuck up.lol, No. :^)

>>92622605>you really aren't in a position to criticize other anon's paint jobI think you have me confused for someone else anon? I didnt comment on anyones paintjob except the Ork dude who was using contrasts. Anyway, post models.
And you wonder why people don't want to post models.
>>92622530There's no good boards in current day 40k. Just ones that are turn 1 wipes, or tourney boards.>>92622526Reply to this post.
>>92622621>There's no good boards in current day 40k. Just ones that are turn 1 wipes, or tourney boards.Whats going to happen is I'll say "no" then you'll define tourney boards as any board with sufficient cover on it. I'll call you a dumb faggot and we'll go about our day
>>92622616Ok, my bad. But:>post modelsNo. I don't play those stupid games because all it does is shit up the thread.
>>92622621>Another weak attempt to get me to stop calling him out and regain control of the situation.Post models or shut the fuck up.

>>92622748When I say "stupid games" I'm not talking about 40k, I'm talking about the constant "post models" dick measuring contests you all constantly engage in when you can't come up with a good counter to what someone says.

>>92622790No, now you have me confused for someone else. I only said you shouldn't criticize someone else's paint job when yours isn't really all that great either.
>>92622775I'm a completely different anon, just wanted to tell you how fucking ridiculous you're being

>>92622820Nah
If a battleline unit can be comprised of either 10 or 20 models with the same number of points per model, isn't it always better to run two 10s of those units? Ultimate newfag here.
>>92622832NTA, but it's okay to admit you're poor anon. We all have financial troubles at some point.
>>92622335Exodites?
>>92622838Good bait anon, enjoyed it
>>92622836no, those that for example would like a stratagem or character buffing them might prefer going in a big 20 models unit so the buff applies to all 20 models.
>>92622836Buffs are more efficient on larger groups because you can get the same benefits for more models with one leader or one use of a strategem.Of course there are a lot of obvious downsides to grouping them up too as you mentioned, plus Blast vulnerability.
>>92622848ArtelW does have "Shai Hulud" Eldar model, pretty cool stuff
>>92622856>>92622858I just realised how stupid my question was, thanks. I only thought of contesting objectives but not the buffs, and certainly not the blast keyword.
Add this to your 4chanX comment filters to remove troll-anon:/post models/i;boards:tg;
>>92622666so you're one of those retards who just imagines what the other person thinks and "argues" with that huh
>>92622862Is that a sand-worm between your legs or are you just pleased to see me?
>>92622888
>>92622862The model implies the fella was riding it before it came out of the ground? Surely that would have been like getting sandpapered to hell and back?
>>92622862>>92622848How long do orders from Artel W even take these days? This new promotion tells me that their shit is fucked right now
>>92622913Answer is "space elves", dunno what else you expect Here's a pic of a great conversion and paintjob, sadly not mine
Why hasnt GW done anything interesting with the Imperium Nihilius? You'd think it would be turning into an Age-of-Strife like area with lots of little mini-Imperiums, Republics and other independent states because the warp travel and astropathic messaging became from very, very hard to completely impossible.
>>92622933I got my most recent one in about 2.5 weeks or so, to UK.
>>92622424Nice colors, brother. This is the last dude I’ve built, I want to get started painting this week. I’m thinking teal coveralls myself, with white smocks/rags and yellow rubber-looking gloves for the dudes that have them. Really want to lean into the slaughterhouse worker look for the main cult.
I dont like priming with a rattlecan.
>>92622953Nah, apparently there is a really small corridor in the Great Rift that allows Imperium Nihilus to stay connected to the rest of the Imperium. So basically GW advanced the plot without really changing the status quo. Plus, Guilliman has appointed Dante as the Lord Commander or whatever of Imperium Nihilus and GW just hand waves things away by saying Dante and the Blood Angels are maintaining order.
>>92623014Why
>Need a new cutting map>Get into a hobby store>Some really big and buff dude comes to me>"Need some help?">"Yeah, I need a cutting map.">He musters me from top to bottom>Like really intense>Nods slowly and we go way back into the store>He opens a drawer hidden beneath some junk>"Here's the good stuff."Did I just pass some kind of vibe check?
>>92623029He's going to expect "favors" later on...
>>92623022I dont like how many external factors can potentially ruin a mini. Its the worst part of the painting process for me.
>>92623029Cutting mat you mean, or is cutting map some new hobby arkana I've not heard of before?
>>92623043If you have a basement, just get a dehumidifier and a space heater and you'll be fine.
>tfw no qt tabletop enthusiast gf
>>92623050Nah, it's a mat. For some reason I wrote map.
>>92623083Why would you even want a girlfriend who is into the same stuff as you? In my experience those relationships really don't work out in the long term. Probably because if you're into the same stuff, you'll be around each other all the time and will eventually get sick of each other.The saying "opposites attract" really is true when it comes to long term relationships.
>>92623083They don't exist. They're either artists types with the depth of a puddle or ERPers who want you to do all the legwork for them with sheets and rolls.
what do I all need to buy for getting started with Airbrushing?
>>92623106Sounds like your own experience rather than a general truth
>>92623115Well yeah...that's why I prefaced it with "in my experience"
>>92623113You I all need a compressor, an air brush, some paint, some air brush cleaner, and an area to spray.
>>92623113I dunno, ask /wip/
>>92622563i was wondering how your baron harkonnen was going, given the fremen talk earlier in the threadmore, more, give me more
>>92622913either it "swims" in the ground more than it tunnels or the elf on top has some phase-through technobabble allowing him to ride underground and I think that's the cooler option and evoking an eerie desert ghost type of character
>>92621399I own 18, are you on crack? I tried a game this week and felt like a right cunt running all of them. 3 squads is absolutely the play in comp lists. I don't think you realize how stupid a 2+/5++/4+++ is on Orkz for 2 turns, especially if you Unga bunga Ghaz right at the enemy, and 6" pile into another unit to get REALLY stuck in. Meanwhile, you've got 2 x 10 klaw nob squads with bosses in trukks running around being annoying as shit
>>92621627Hi I've won 3 rtts and gotten Best Orkz in a local GT, who the fuck doesn't run at least 3 grot squads to screen other Ork players/World Eaters
I feel retarded just for asking this but why did they remove the paints ideally used for the models in their website? The old website listed them all.I mean they're all listed in the box but still. I feel like buying vallejo out of spite
>>92623221Because the new website won't really be ready for use for another year or so.But GW launched it anyway.
>>92623221Vallejo is so much easier to work with anyways, I only buy GW for technical and contrasts.
>>92621334What a good boy>>92621437And nothing of value was lost
Are there any online calculators that let me pick the units instead of inputting stats one at a time?
>>92623277no
>>92623147Shuugash pretty much done for now, I'm basically in a holding pattern.>need gellerpox infected KT box for a glitchling and stuff to finish him>cant buy it yet because I have to save hobby budget for the CSM battleforceso for now I keep working on the CSM half of /myguys/ warband. pic related.
>>92623277Unit crunch remembers your unit profiles once you have input them the first time. There are also uploaded databases people make with full army lists pre-input that you can copy and load in to save yourself some time.
Demons fear this
>>92623246>contrastsEven then, both Army Painter Speed Paints and Vallejo Xpress are just as good as GW's contrast paints.
When did warhammer become cringe?
>>92623221Incompetence. And that's just fucking designing a functional feature complete website, imagine what other projects are like behind the scenes. No matter how much money GW makes, all that does is give them more to skim, squander, and misappropriate. Anyway, that's why taxes are theft.
>>92623412The moment you made your first post in this general.
>>92623221The new website was literally just money down the drain. Worse in every way than the old website and cost them millions.
>>92623384I got Heretic Turquoise & Dwarf Skin Xpress colors from Vallejo. I liked the tone of the former and Xpress colors. I'll see how the former compares to the regular VGC Turquoise and how the latter works on faces instead of VGC Tan & Skin Tone Wash.
>>92623412Always has been. It was written for teenage boys and has always been extremely cringe for any well-adjusted adult over the age of 16.
>>92623481>adult>16nice try third worlder
>>92623021No. You are retarded and wrong. The traitors currently control Nachmund.Dante barely can leave Baal since he is besieged there.Abaddon and the traitors have more control there and are building their own version of the Imperium.Tourists like you belong on the cross.
>>92623511>Getting this angry over a fictional setting written for toy soldiersNTA, but bro get some help. It's not that deep.
i fell so far down the hobby hole im getting horse painting tutorials now
>>92623463Shoutout to the consultant who pitched them the idea that a "sleek, streamlined website" would boost sales. Guy's laughing all the way to the bank
>>92623463how do you even spend 6 million on that
>>92623351>Daemons fear me>Sororitas love me>Humans don't know I exist
>>92623567Is the tutorial at least good?
>>92623582Overinflated salaries for tech/IT workers. Seriously, tech workers like software engineers and web developers are a dime a dozen now. There is really no reason they should be making more than minimum wage.
>>92623463I'm a newfag who got into the hobby in January 2024, is this the current warhammerdotcom where GW sells everything from one place?
>>92623454
>>92623605Only when it's in stock :^)
>>92623605Yes it's this monstrosityhttps://www.warhammer.com/en-GB/homeThey got fleeced if it cost them 4.5 million
Valrak did more damage to 40k than fucking TTS>>92623463>>92623605those retards are wasting all of the money they got from ESG shit like if they are fucking disney.
>>92623602>a dime a dozen nowNot ones who know what the fuck they're doing and can speak English.
>>92623616I don't know why anyone would buy from them directly when you can buy shit around 15% off or more from 3rd party stores. I saved around $60 when buying my GSC combat patrol boxes and the money I went into paints, plastic glue, hobby knife etc. Considering those stores also make money as 3rd party retailers, giving such a high profit margin to a company like GW makes little to no sense.
>>92623655>why anyone would buy from them directly[online only]
>>92621322Yeah KT isn't about list building, it's about grabbing your boys and getting stuck into a tactical skirmish.
>>92623669If there's no list building they're not 'my boys'
How long until newrecruit is updated with the point change? Do I have to click something
>40k is basically just a list building simulator to maximize your dice rolls and the success threshold of those dicerollsThere's very little strategy in 40k. The game is decided on paper and in the dice tray.Oh yes you have to basically have encyclopedic knowledge of bullshit "lol reverse uno!" trap card bullshit rules.Basically it's like roulette where if you bet on 36 the croupier gets to kick you in the balls.
Custards are the favorite faction of Cavill right? Kinda based that GW ruined it then desu
Battlescribe hasn't updated their points yet, lazy fucks
>>92623682At least there's wargear and equipment.
>>92623239>Because the new website won't really be ready for use for another year or so.I don't really believe they will change anything.
>>92623563Where do you think you are? You only confirm more that you are shit eating tourist that doesn't belong here. And going NTA doesn't mean jackshit on a fucking anon board.
>>92623463>Worse in every way than the old websiteI wouldn't say that. I imagine it's less useful to people who don't already know what's available and who don't know what they're looking for. People like that will have to do a lot more scrolling and clicking around to get the same value out of the new site as the old one. It feels like running an obstacle course just to glean basic information from the site if you start from the front page.But my user experience has gotten better. The new filter function is way better, the store loads way quicker and feels much smoother. I already know most everything to be found in there so I can completely bypass most of the bullshit people might experience from entering the webstore through the front page. All that extra clicking and scrolling isn't really something I have to bother with. So the new has upsides for me.
>>92623711Wrong. 40K is a simulator for me to field my army. MinMax fags need not apply.

>>92621217Finish your bases pleb
>>92621191If you were here during 8th edition release you'd realize any talk of the game being decent was btfo by people doomposting about primaris, and paintlets crying about "overdetailed models". There was literally zero actual discussion whatsoever and every post was just thinly veiled bait intended to upset people
>>92621871This is why you save your pics of your models for posts not linked to schizo arguments. It's fine to post models if you aren't talking about insane shit within the same reply chain
>>92621916Probably question what the point of rolling out tanks with rotted road wheels and mechanical issues when tau drones are just going to drop grenades on their roofs
>>92622862Imagine choosing to expose yourself to pajeet culture willingly
>>92623029He's going to fuck your ass one day and you will be powerless to stop him unless you show him your fully painted and based army
>>92623463>6 million to lose customers for no reasonHad a pretty young kid at my lgs ask my friend and I midgame if the game was going away because he couldn't find the website anymore. Gw doesn't realize that everyone isn't tuned into their community page, and will continue to make schizoposts on it assuming everyone will hear about it.
>>92623582Tech workers demanding nitro cold brew on tap and 18$ company paid takeout lunches or they'll strike.
