The First one.
I don't know who's the best, but I definitely know who's the worst of the worst
Progress on this guy
>>93174492Those are blood angels right
>>93174505Coolio.
>>93174492>takes lower body home
>>93174492These marine proportions are hilarious.
>>93174492That dark eldar on the far left presenting a normal human head likes it supposed to frighten the marines.
Is there any reason why Dark Eldar and Eldar are treated as separate races while the 4 chaos factions are the same?
>>93174534This is the truescaler's dream and it's beautiful...

>>93174750I'm sorry you can't appreciate kino anon
Working on my chapel barracks. I'm thinking about making the metal grates on the pad red instead to look closer to the original model. Should I keep it metallic or go with red?
>>93174768Ginyu force ass pose.
>>93174768>>93174750what an embarrassing warband.
>>93174768i like these guys. reminds me of when warhammer 40k used to be kind of silly.
The only way to play Space Wolves is to only use faction specific units and use manlets.Embrace the retardation and you become the coolest guy in any room.
>>93174770Maybe keep in metallic just the 'stripe'
>>93174704I disagree on the body, but yeah that armor fucking sucks lol, I hate breast compartments
space wolf meme power is getting to meI kind of want them
>>93174879i know, right? space sharks anon really got my almonds activated
>>93174879They are neat
>>93174911>The facial expression on that wolfCertainly looks like he got his asshole drilled out.
>>93174919You're not allowed to post that meme anymore anon
>>93174940Did he put a little bead of greenstuff there and use a tiny torx screwdriver bit to give it a tiny chocolate starfish?
>>93174969He needs to sculpt the fortune cookieI play space wolves
>>93174879this stupid fucking chariot is all the reason you need to tell people they have no right to complain about primaris
>>93174505Progress on these two.
>>93174979they don't ride the female wolves don't be stupid
>>93174979>fortune cookie
>>93174982>This thing that people hate exists, therefor they have no right to hate this other thingI'm not quite sure I follow your logic
>>93174982Everyone mocked it though, just like centurions and baby carriers
>>93174993None of the wolf models have a ball sack. That leaves only one option.
What the FUCK is a fortune cookie
>>93175014>>93175020Did I say people didn't hate it? NoBut without a massive range refresh they would be still shitting out godawful braindead sculpts like that chariot and centurions because they were constrained by the existing parameters
>>93175022neutered
>>93175031That's not how that works at all. Also, noticed how other armies and even HH marines have gotten a range refresh, without a primaris-fication? Yeah.
>>93175027Fuck off Gen A
>>93175051>HH marines have gotten a range refresh, without a primaris-ficationehhhh they're halfway there as far as completely pointless shitty redesigns go
>>93175051>Also, noticed how other armies and even HH marines have gotten a range refresh, without a primaris-fication? Yeah.no, they haven'tHH marines are existing marine marks in 5 repeated poses and different helmets and one or two badly sculpted resin unit
>>93174505
>>93174732Just like a real Word Bearer.
>>93175083Nice
>>93174505Very niceI worked on a phobos apothecary for fun.Do need to find a white paint that doesn't get dry and chunky so easily
I hated painting these fuckers but who else is going to sit on the backfield objective doing nothing?
>>93175118God I wish phone posting didn't do thisI'll probably post a second pic when I'm not in a closet to show the cape
>>93175130>>93175118thin your paints.
>>93175118pro acryl bold titanium white
>>93174991Going for a Judge Death skintone or is that just a placeholder?
>>93175122Cultists, perhaps?
>>93175122I have to say, the cultist equivalents in the armies are the least interesting partsI'm there for power armor, not bird boys/zombies/druggies
>>93175140Horus heresy is calling for you codkiddie.
>>93175140zombies and druggies at least feel fluffy as chaff to soak up bullets for the important modelsI just wish they didn't get so much emphasis and poor poor tsons
>>93175137I'll check it outUlthuan Grey is nice but it gets chunky>>93175135Unfortunately a decent bit of that is chunks where it gets crunchy
>>93175151botpost
>>93175151Nyet>>93175154Boy do theyAt least with Deathguard it feels like they have more toys to levy outside of zombiesBirdboys feels like GW just trying to double dip on an AoS kit
>>93175118Don't use pure white for 99% of it. I use VMC Pale Blue Grey or Sky Grey, then highlight it with white. I've foound Pro Acryl to be the best true white, but still best when applied over those other paints
>>93175151>>93175140>choose faction Chaos Space Marines>look inside>cultists
>>93175171Yeah, technically I'm doing a light gray for it but it still gets chunky
>>93175181>ask for hamburger>looks inside>pickles
>>93175245
>>93174505Nice. I dig the heat fist. I enjoy painting those kind of things.
What space marine chapter should I play if I want a balanced combined arms approach- a good mix of melee infantry, ranged infantry, and vehicles
Roadmap 2024-25 leak (real)>Late SummerInquisition (Gray Knights folded into Agents)>FallVotann, TSons, Space Wolves (Leman Russ hinted at returning, doesn't)>WinterAstra Militarum, Drukhari, Blood Angels>SpringDeath Guard, Deathwatch>SummerKnights (they get one super book that costs extra because "it's two armies in one"), new xenos race that gets ignored for 2 editionsSource: I know a guy named James and I've been to a Workshop
>>93175245People play CSM for the faction namesake, Chaos Space Marines. They don't play it for some cultist chaff.It's the same level of stupid if loyalist marines were like CSM.>choose loyalist marines>look inside>chapter serfs
Not even slightly believable.
>>93175278basically any of them.
>>93175288Sounds like bullshit, but I believe it.
>>93175278any of them but blood angels or black templars
>>93175278THE GREATEST OF THEM ALL...
>>93175307Thanks! The lack of a roadmap has driven me insane!
>>93174747I have been enjoying them and doing well. However, there are a lot of Cron players at the moment at my FLGS so I don't bring them out as much. My last game vs jungle bugs.
>>93175288>Space Wolves (Leman Russ hinted at returning, doesn't)I can see GW do this, I guess it'd then set up that Leman is returning in like 11th edition.I hope that the range refresh for SW works out nicely and that they look cool.
>>93174770It looks great, I didn't think it needs more red.
Has anybody here used Vallejo Xpress Colors? How are they? I've been interested in trying them out by converting the contrast like paints into washes. With the respective medium.
>>93175342they're as solid as contrasts and speedpaints
>>93175295>People play CSM for the faction namesake>the most popular detachment is the cultist oneuh huh sure, because no one likes the accursed cultists, or the traitor guard, or the chaos spawn, or the mauler fiends, or the deifler,or the...>>93175261Blame GW for putting out shitty bundle deals. Not the chaff itself, and its honestly not that bad of box when you consider the savings and the kitbash potential with the extra plague guard bits that are on that sprue. The Thousand sons box is irredeemable however.
>>93175362it's an awful dealnot only does it come with typhus which you'd never need more than one of but nobody needs or wants 30 poxwalkers
>>93175271Thanks. The heatfist was because he's a reboot of a specific old marine that was painted that way. (Yes I know the weapons are flipped it was hard to find the exact same pose)
>>93175122They look cool at least. I like the striped saws.
>>93175375That's some serious progress. Good shit anon.I love progress pictures.
>>93175372It's great for new players, and plague walkers are great cheap wounds that are fun to suck up value. Are they meta? Fuck no, but we aren't waac faggots. 30 pox walkers are also great because it would make a new player a better painter, which 40k players seems to have a serious issue right now.
>>93175375Just noticed the glow off the knee, very nice.
>>93175138Just waiting for face paint.
>>93175375The mirror effect makes it look like the younger looking at the older version of himself.
>>93174879For me, it's the Magnus basedjak on it, and the wolf doing the chad pose.
Any stories about genestealer cults on pre industrial worlds? if they can fall to earth in space hulks so old they look like comets surely its happened right?
>>93175551In Leviathan, one of the lore tidbits in it was a GSC uprising on a Feudal world.
why couldn't they have just given him a cool helmet to begin with?
>>93175551Theres a white dwarf short story about an inquisitor on a feudal world trying to source a cult and when they track them down to a church it was a Genestealer Cult AND a Tzeentch cult trying to get a beachhead on the world in the same fuedal lords feifdom and they had a showdown and killed each other and the world never knew how close they came to 40k wake up call.
>>93175551We will never know, with a lack of proper documentation because it is a pre industrial world nobody cares or even knows about, the world probably got just devoured and no one ever found out it was because of a genestealr uprsing.
>>93175577...pic not related?
>>93174879Best army
>>93175577>yer kind aint welcome round these parts

So…..is there ANY way for the galaxy to survive the Tyranids? Yes, Chaos is basically perma-guaranteed to win eventually, but if that doesn’t happen in the near future is there literally anything that can stop the main Tyranid body? Necrons may be able to, but they’re way too limited in numbers, too broken down, etc. So unless the Silent King or the Chaos Gods come in clutch is there ANY answer to the threat?
Im trying out the leviathan box for the first time, can someone explain having melee weapons and ranged on the same unit? I know that my ballistics dreadnought can’t fire missiles if a screamer-killer is in my face. (Because they’re blast) Can I fire my lasers? Also since the dreadnought has feet, can it fight during the fight phase? Or can it just shoot
>>93175675only by war of attrition, but they have a whole galaxy worth of nids on their side so....
Thoughts on the Combat Patrol magazine thing launching later this year? I kinda want to go in on it since I like the idea of working on a model a week and the savings should be decent but I hear that Hachette's distribution for the last one they did in the US was trash.
>>93175634
>>93175715They will still sell individual magazines with the kits in the us right? I only care for the World Eater portion and want to get a jugg lord for cheap.
Do we have a Votann League creation table in the works yet? I could have sworn there was one on 1d4chan but I'm not seeing it on 1d6.
Also, if the Imperium decided they were going to eradicate Commorragh — let’s say the Eldar would open them up safe portals into the Webway — what would the Crusade Fleet look like? Are we talking about multiple Fleets?
>>93175675Well tyranids are known for a hive mind, i whoever is able to find and kill that thing if it is a single entity the swarm could stop invading the galaxy, still being a giant ass problem randomly scattering tyranids everywhere. The other option would be finding something tyranids fear/dislike, there are certain things that tyranids evade if possible.Also there could be something ridicules like changing the webway into a giant vacuum sucking the swarm in and then imploding or shit like that.
>>93175766About that. Could Chaos, if they tried, breach the Shadow on the Warp?
>>93175723He won't be winning Miss America, that's for sure.
>>93175715they’re trying this again?if its cheap enough I’ll subscribe for kitbashing purposes
>>93175879its like $1000+ for the entire thing so
>>93175932welp
How does ancient in terminator armor work? Do I need to convert it? If that’s the case, do I need to get another singular terminator or does it replace the sergeant in the unit?
>>93175989yes you need to convert or find one of the non-existent listings for a resellerno it doesn't replace them
>>93176002Thanks. It’s not worth the effort to get one
>>93175801Who knows, no one has a clue how far the real hivemind is away how massive it is or how strong.Shadows in the warp is discribed as seemingly indefinitly voices all in unision and in total dissaray at the same time that just overwhelm everything psycic in nature. The hivemind could be a monster, a swarm of monsters that form one mind, a c'tan, an eldrich being or even a chaos god. Chaos gods represent aspects of humans and other beings with soul, the more widespread and primitive the part is the stronger it is, eating, growing and reproducing is indeed one of the most basic aspects of live and would be by far the strongest chaos god in that case they would have no chance is guess.
>>93175626At least you have good taste in books.
>>93175675Kill the source of the hive mind and they would turn on each other and devour themselves.
>>93176079The source of the hive mind, ostensibly, is the gestalt mind of all its synapse -- the hive mind exists until all synapse collapses. Perhaps it's an emergent property of some proto-tyranid bioform that's long been evolved beyond and once a sufficient amount of synapse has been purged, it can no longer sustain itself. The shadow in the warp is the physical experience of the hive mind establishing synapse in the region.
Two quick newbie lore questions: >are chaos "sorceries" actual spells or just a purely placebo way of someone with psychic powers to use them, like that was how they were taught to use them and control them>can a non-psyker chaos cultist gain powers through mutation, or if sorcery is actual magic can they be taught "spells"?
>>93174567Jesus anon, touch grass.
>>93174768Just proxy out the stupid models anon.
Do you think Scions might actually be really good now?
Tell me about /your dudes/.What is their standard field ration?
>>93176133What do you think the lad in the image is saying? "Which one of you lot done it? Who set my space bible on fire?"
>>93176184Cloned cow flesh.They trim the cow weekly
>>93176184Sometimes they eat other people, sometimes they eat regular food, but they will always be the eater of worlds.
>>93176133You could describe the chaos realm a bit like the realm of dreams and fantasy (mostly the nightmarish kind) and psycers give up part of their mind and soul to make a rift between the worlds where those things drip out of manifesting as "magic". non psycers can still be "gifted" by the chaos gods and get mutations and other powers that the chaos gods lend them, practically making the chaos gods do the magic for them.
Are adeptus mechanicus strong? Are they noob friendly/ fun to play? Their lore and aesthetic always appealed to me. I also like orcs and dark eldar but hear they get no support and aren't good.
>>93176133Sorcery is magic; the practitioners use rituals, artifacts and daemonic pacts to channel power - is just being taught certain ways to manipulate the warp or being able to call upon a warp entity to do it for you. However, the power they channel is the same power that psykers use. The difference is that psykers can harness the powers of the Warp innately while sorcerers need the aforementioned fetishes and other ritualistic things to do so.You can of course get people who do both, use sorcery for ritualistic scrying, fortune-telling and summoning, and then just straight up use normal raw psychic mind blasts on the battlefield - pretty sure most CSM Sorcerer Lords would fall into this category.
>>93176124>>93175675>>93175766Chaos knows of the future because it's in the past, present, and future simultaneously. There are daemons that time traveled from the end of the universe and back. Qaramar and Abaddon's seer daemon prince are two examples.There is also the DAoT ship from Death of Integrity that went to the far future where Chaos won.It's all consistent. The universe will end in Chaos. The Tyranids thus are confirmed to have failed or destroyed.
>>93176184Never thought about that. What do imperial workers eat, probably just some mushroom algae mush?
>>93174666kek, I like to think CSM make recordings of the stuff like this thats gets traded and spread around different warbands and legions. Information must spread among them somehow
>>93176236Wrong. The codexes and main rulebooks say that Psychic powers and sorcery are one and the same. The difference only exists in the minds of misinformed mortals.And this is a long-established thing. Rick Priestly wrote in his documents explaining the setting of metaphysics.
>>93176212>>93176236>>93176260I'm still lost, guess I'll just re-read the codexes. >>93176190>says here you're a FLAMING faggotor>see? this chaos shit is FIRE
>>93176242Was warhammer a universe in wich time travel changesd the future or where it was "all destined all along" kinda thing?
>>93176283Both
>>93176260...thats what I said anon. "Sorcery is magic, magic is psychic power, drawn from the warp".
>>93176313Pardon low blood sugar levels. Need a cookie.
>>93176184Healthy and delicious bento hand-prepared by their beloved onee-samas.
>>93176280>I'm still lostPsychic power is manifesting your willpower to make something happen using the power of the warp. Sorcery is using ritual to achieve the same effect.
>>93176133As fahr as i can see it, you have no spells or so that actually cast the powers you just need to concentrate and visualise what you want and if it gets complexer they start using spells and runes to better visualise what they want and to get help from the deamons/gods to manifest whatever they want because its to hard for them alone.
>>93176232>strongmaybe, they're getting buffed from bottom tier but hard to say yet>noob friendlyno, expensive to collect and hard to paint>fun to playmileage may vary
>>93176310Strange but inconsistencies like that are natural in 40k. but in that case knowing the future means nothing.
>>93176353Depends on the future you know. Kurze knew how he would die, but not when or where.
Imagine pledging yourself to Nurgle because you're a daft cultist who doesn't really know any better or isn't aware of the other Chaos gods, only to find later on that you could have pledged yourself to the god of drugs and sex or the god of knowledge instead, but no no, you pledged to the god of not getting invited to any more parties because you stink. You'd be pure raging. Imagine how gutting that would be. Nurgle followers get a shit deal.
>delayed painting by two days because I wanted 1mm masking tape>gets here>paint over it>lift it up>still too thick of a masked off area so I was better off just freehanding like before
>>93176364people usually pledge themselves to nurgle to not die from horrible diseases they already have
>>93174505Nice paint. On my slab tonight taking a 3d printed torso and making a flyrant out of the bits leftover in the box. Fuck knows if I'll ever even play nids, but I wanted a break from the Orks for a bit. Still not sure if I should care about loadout by using magnets or just saying fuck it and going all melee as to just glue the swords down and run them as talons on paper. The lash can easily be the tail and so on.
>>93176370Getting forced into the pact because you've no other option doesn't make it any better though. You'd still be pure mad about it.
>>93176370and pledging themselves is usually a worse fate.
>>93176253That, and dead people. Corpse starch is pretty well established
>>93176363And? If the future can change nothing is sure, In Kurze's case it is even funny that knowing the future is the reason why it occured (IF he actually died like that, his body was never found and such)
>>93176280>psychic abilitiesYou go to the gas station, pump your own gas and leave without paying. The more gas you pump the higher is the risk of the manager running out with a baseball bat and busting your windshield or even caving your skull in if you're unlucky and he had a bad day.>sorceryYou go to the gas station and pay a dude there to pump your gas for you. It is safer because you're engaging with the whole thing through an intermediary, but you have to provide something valuable in return. There is also the danger of the dude trying to stab you to steal your car so you have to be careful dealing with him.
>>93176236Could a blank do a sorcery ritual?
>>93176410Yeah that's how GW likes it. It's good that they don't lean too hard into the time fuckery.
>>93176410There's only one primarch that should return and there's only one way he SHOULD return
>>93176430No, nothing psychic works around a blank.
>>93176242The Tyranid "fails" in the same way a shark fails to finish its meal because it only ate your arm. On that note, the Tyranid is just a particularly large cloud of vicious krill in the shape of a shark swimming across a vast, vast ocean on which people are but plankton.
>>93176364>NurgleHe is a nice guy removes all pain plays with you and is like a nice granpa to you IF you follow him.>>93176370usually they wish they could die but are in horrible pain and other kinds of torturis circumstances and the only way out is to accept the deal.>>93176381it usually is not
>I got chewed out by my boss for 30 minutes during my shift today >Over a mistake my coworker madeChapter for this feel
>>93176457Orks.Beat your boss to death.
>>93176382>Corpse starchi thought that were just military rations, not for ordinary people.
>>93174448>What’s the best faction in Warhammer 40k, and why?C a b a l are the best
>>93176457Iirc there's a chapter in the Badab War that didn't do any traitor shit but got declared traitors just for being nearby
>>93176457lamenters
>>93176465Nah plenty of civilians get it too. Necromunda would grind to a halt without grinding corpses
>>93176440Why and how?
>>93176488Ferrus Manus as a head in a jar
>>93176253Pretty much, fungi farms and algae farms are a running trend in most Nexromunda books. Corpse starch is often mentioned, but you'd imagine that it would be used to supplement essential fatty acids, not as the staple of the diet, though there is a whole guild on Necromunda dedicated to rendering down the dead into corpse starch (Mercator Pallidus). Synthetic fats and vitamin supplements are also mentioned so that the workers remain productive. Rat burgers and other hive fauna turned into food are a nice change if you can get them. There's "fish", water spiders and other creatures in the various sump and sludge pools and of course in the sump at the hive bottom though who knows how edible those are, I do remember the spiders being hinted because they had crystalline eyes in old Necromunda, I think there was a long story in the hardback compendium about that. There was sludge jellies too, like jellyfish only more horrible. There's insect farms for growing massive roaches, beetles and the like that can be ate or used to supplement peoples diets. Pretty sure corpse starch is more or less like a really crappy MRE but when the grimdank touch applied so it's part made from corpses now, and is extra horrible.
>>93176493That doesn't really answer any of my questions. Maybe the how if you interpret it as "in what condition" instead of "what circumstances".
>>93176521It's just a decapitation joke anon, I didn't think that far in
>>93176447Survival is the Tyranids' goal. If the material universe is destroyed by Chaos, the Tyranids will be destroyed with it. Unless an AoS happens and the Tyranids are transported into a new reality.
>>93176430>Could a blank do a sorcery ritual?>>93176445Now you've got me thinking....could a blank become a Living Saint?
>>93176545No, nothing psychic works around the blank.
>>93176457Lamenters
>>93174529How long would it stay fresh? Could you eat it after words? What does dark eldar taste like?
>>93176545>could a blank become a Living SaintCulturally, perhaps, if they did something extraordinary. But it's a very long shot considering people hate them, and they'd not have any of the powers and weird faith shit we typically associate with living sainthood
>>93176551Living Saints aren't psychic as per that last book I've forgot the name of, they separated Faith and Psychic as two distinct things.
>>93176551>>93176545>>93176430Yes, a Sister of Silence became a Chaos sorcerer after the HH and attempted to send a warning to her past self during the HH but a zealous SoS member killed the younger version of herself resulting in the time loop collapsing.
I just finished the Lelith novel.Got any questions or requests for screencaps?
>>93176540ah.... sry i ruined your joke
>>93176545>could a blank become a Living Saint?Possibly? If the Emperor is a god he could focus enough power to pierce through the blank field or cause certain people to be drawn to the blank who would be able to do stuff. It's most likely a long shot. I'm talking special snowflake levels here. Pure fanfic type stuff.
>>93176589Not your fault bro, don't sweat it
>>93176253There's actually a decent article on it on the non-lexicanum wiki:https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Imperial_Food_and_Drink
>>93176588Is it lewd?
>>93175687look at the dataslate for your dreadnought
>>93176584Wow, I'm just going to pretend I never read that bullshit. :D
>>93176601Yes, Lelith has a three day orgy to clear her head with her second in command, a Corsair Princess, and one random guy.Lelith doesn't keep her hand to herself around women. She is always touching and pulling them to her face.
>>93176619Congratulations, you just got a job at black library. Now go write some fan- novels.
>>93176620I'm guessing no protection or do dark eldar have super plan B
>>93175687yes and yes. theres a weapon on the datacard for dreadnought stomping
>>93176588Where there any classic "Mike Brooks" moments or characters in the book?
>>93176573Living Saints are psychic. The "faith powers" being non-psychic is cringe nulore and is not canon.>>93176584Waterboarding wouldn't make me admit to reading this drivel.
>>93176619>>93176625Ther is nothing that says that a blank cannot use psychic powers.The Alpha Pariah aka the Ultima Anathema from the Inquisitor Martyr video game who was the endpoint of the Pariah gene evolution can use Pariah powers and Alpha psyker powers. She was on her way to becoming a Warp God.
>>93174940of course a space wolf player did this
>>93176631Eldar require multiple additions of genetic material over the pregnancy period for the fetus to develop properly. One night stands or even short term relationships are completely safe for them.
>>93176642>quoting videogames in a fluff argument
>>93176635A lesbian/bisexual orgy. Lelith's relationship with her childhood friend Morghana is tsundere romantic. Other than that nothing too much.
>>93176637You might not like it, but it is canon, Cawdor and Redemptionists in Necromunda manifest faith powers as well and they're a completely separate mechanic from psychic ability. Indeed they fucking hate psykers and mutants.
>>93176642I don't even explicitly hate vidya as a source for this kind of shit, but Martyr's a bit of a stretch
>>93176666Fuck, the digits confirmed something I dislike
>>93176648How does that work? Do eldar have U shaped wombs so the fetus travels to different points? Are different receptors open to different elements in the cum? Does it have to be the same male? Does the fetus just skip the baby phase and use the extra material to come older?
>>93176685It's more like a deadman switch. The baby thinks, "Ah, Cum. I can continue to grow!"
>>93176642they're psychic voids, they have limits. They also absolutely cannot use psychic powers. There are lore accounts of blanks being overloaded with psychic energy and they drop dead in the same way sapping a psychic with a null rod does. blanks souls are negative, psychic souls are positive, most people are latently positive, you bring either to a 0 point and they become neutralized and die. anything else is fanfiction.
>>93176762this just makes it more confusing.
>>93176762blanks and pariahs are the same thing
>>93176713No. The Ultima Anathema aka the God Empress of Mankind used a crown created by a race called the Fabricatus, race that based their technology on the Necrons. The crown allowed her to control her powers and siphon copious amounts of Warp energy to manifest godlike psychic powers. She even shut down a Warp Rift that nearly became the size of the Eye of Terror.All of this was engineered by a C'tan called the Watcher.Her reason for existence was to become powerful enough to devour the Chaos Gods and become the ultimate god of the Warp.Seriously, just play the game, and its DLC.
>>93176685The only things we know is that it has to be the same male, the genetic mechanics of the process or why the Old Ones designed them that way are unknown.
>>93176666>You might not like it, but it is canonYeah, if you're gay.
>>93176780I know, but pariahs are *more* blank. Like the difference between someone making you uncomfortable to be near and it actually painful
>>93176783They should do a Xenology 2. Just more random biology facts from questionable sources.
>>93176815God, I wish. This shit was cool
>>93176815That would be so cool.
>>93176823I wonder if we're ever gonna get mentions of Umbra again.
>>93176815Modern James is too cringe to do something so cool.
Anyway, the Lelith novel updates us on the Ynnari storyline slightly.Yvraine isn't ready yet to believe Shalaxi that the final sword is kept inside Slanesh's palace. She is still looking for clues to its whereabouts. Visarch gets no respect in the novel. Yvraine and Lelith ignore his words and presence in their talk.Yvraine can cure the Soulthirst but it's in a limited manner. If Ynnari Drukhari stray away from her the Soulthirst gradually returns.
>>93176836They're gonna make an Umbra kit and it'll just be two identical sprues of plain hemispheres
>>93176815>>93176823>>93176824>>93176849They already released a modern-day version of the Xenology or did you forget? Rather than a tech priest, the guy writing it is the Rogue Trader character from BSF game.
>>93176871Didn't know that, got a link?
>>93176854>Visarch gets no respect in the novel.Is there a reason why?
>>93176781is this type of ability reflected in any other 40k lore or just one videogame?
>>93176879He's never been respected. He's always been nothing more than a simp for Yvraine.
>>93176879Guess.
>>93176879Strong women don't like being mansplained.Really it's just that Yvraine has outgrown him and is his superior and Lelith doesn't give a damn about lackeys.
>>93176879Guess he's just a weapon now
>>93176902I don't understand this weird sub cult of painting warhammer miniatures in pride colours. Is it just to collect twitter brownie points?
>>93176871It was just spoken descriptions of xenos species without cool dissection diagrams though.
>>93174684Given how often I had Pop Tarts on the trail with my dad and how protein bars weren't a thing until the late 80s, this ad makes perfect sense.
>>93176892The super pariah from the HH, the Black Spear had similar abilities that were augmented when Erebus grafted a daemon symbiote suit on his body.
>>93176922People do that because it earns them social capital with their in-group and pisses off the out-group.
>>93176922>is it just to collect twitter brownie pointsUnequivocally. They sit in a drawer after being posted, nobody actually plays with them
>>93176905Makes sense. Is kinda tragic. He gives up his position, follows his love, only to now just be a weapon.
>>93176932>Erebus grafted a daemon symbiote suit on his bodyWow they're not even being subtle with the marvel shit anymore
>>93176854Did anybody have any respect for the Visarch ever? Always seemed like some random groupie tagging along. Always forget he even exists.
>>93176902Mike brooks thinks sloppily painting contrast green on a base makes it finished. He’s less than nothing.
>>93176960Unfortunately his words shape 40k canon and yours don't.
Are SoS just humans or some kind of enhanced with gene edits or bionics?
>>93176973I decide what's canon.
>>93176854Any other faction get involved? Are they fighting any Imperial or other xenos? Besides Chaos.
>>93176983just human blanks with super special training and power armor
>>93176989This. Turbofaggot NPC lore ignore
>>93176989We both know that's just cope. Open faggots push their politics into 40k and James welcomes them.
>>9317701340k has so much dogshit and often contradictory lore that choosing whats canon is literally the only way to read it.
>>93176990The primary conflict is between Lelith and Vect.There are factions that pop up in the story. There is an arena fight against Votann Kin.Lelith leads a massive raiding fleet against a craftworld recovering from an Ork Waaagh!A flashback of Lelith fighting space marines and stripping their leader out of his armor and then his skin. A Necron noble head in a stasis cabinet.
>>93176932...aight
>>93177025Well, good luck explaining that you don't consider femstodes canon to a random danger hair at your lgs, and then getting banned from the store when she complains to the manager.
>>93176983SoS are recruited from blanks recruited via the black ships, which they operate. When they aren't paling around with the custards they are sailing on hundred year voyages collecting a tithe of psykers from the galaxy and housing them in anti psyker prison ships. These ships eventually return to terra and the most stable psykers may be trained to begone sanctioned while 99% will be fed to the golden throne to assist the emperor in maintaining the astronomicon. Blanks are far far rare than psykers, and only the most powerful women blanks can become sisters of silence. Blanks have power levels like psykers, and truly powerful psykers can overflow the "drain" effect of blanks. They also are universally hated and despised due to an inherent hatred beyond with souls have for them that they can't even explain. This helps the SoS find them. The absolute most powerful ones become callidus assassins, who's weaponized warp dampening power allows them to "not exist" for sapient beings and walk past any enemy defenses and obliterate psykers.
>>93177039femstodes is barely a retcon, but it is funny how it triggers a certain subset of anons
>>93177028How does it end? Vect kill her? She still free? Vect give up? Everyone becomes friends?
>>93177039>shut-in faggot thinks dangerhairs go to game shops or even care about 40k outside of on twitter
>>93177069iirc she goes back into the webway and everything becomes status quo again, vect was probably secretly backing her and the ynnari
>>93177065Samefag less.
>>93177039>good luck in this imaginary scenario I just made up to get mad about
>>93177065I don't care about femstodes in and of themselves, I just despise retcons for diversity's sake.
>>93176849>>93176871>>93176877They did make a new book called the "Liber Xenologis" and I have uploaded a copy of it a few times. Just and FYI, it is not the best copy but everything should be readable if you are curious to see it. Get it while you can since the link is not permanent: https://pixeldrain<DOT>com/u/zXby1M1Q
>>93177088there are only two people on 4chan anon, you and me. but just out of curiosity who am i supposed to be same fagging? i never claimed to be anyone itt.
>>93177039Are these random danger hair in the room with us now?
>>93177085Well shit. Was hoping we get a juicy new event. How are the different eldar factions holding up? I can't imagine the craftworlders who joined are sharing rooms with the dark eldar. Any exodites? Do the exclusive Chaos eldar ever get mentioned?
>>93177098Big thanks, Anon. These in-universe reference things are always my favourite
>>93177039I steer clear from that kind of discussion. if girls want to make fem marines or femstodes idc.
>>93177120Yes. One's my sister. She's such a bitch.
>>93177147Send me a picture of her so I can jerk off
>>93177039I’ll say she threatened to stab me because she was so mad about my mere opinion
>>93174529
>>93177039It's fine. I'll just use my charm to get her so turned on she'll only think about my cock whenever we meet.

>>93177121GW doesn't want chaos eldar to ever be remembered. They want to make it simple so 10 year olds don't get confused. All Xenos factions are just immune to chaos. I don't like it, but it's what GW wants apparently.Deldar are immune to chaos through pain. Eldar are immune to chaos through meditation and spirit stones. Tau are immune to chaos because they gave teeny tiny souls. (definitely not necrons)Necrons are immune to chaos because they have NO souls. Votann are just asspull sturdy due to living so close to chaos planets. The Tyranid hive mind is so psychically powerful it completely fucks up the warp on planets with enough tyranids that destabilize demons and drives psykers insane. Chaos eldar showed up in one book and GW wants you to forget it forever. I think its stupid af but here we are.
>>93177169Madlad. Thanks again
>>93177069Vect manipulates both Lelith and Morghana into a death match in his stadium. Both fight bitterly but realize they love each other too much to actually kill each other. Lelith stops fighting and places her trust and life Morghana hands. Morghana refuses to kill her. Vect calls the fight a forfeit for both and orders them both to be killed.Lelith and Morghana fight their way to Vect and fight him. Lelith beats Vect and gives him an offer. She has as much influence as he has in the Dark City. She can kill him now and go after his proxy bodies. She will war against him and call him a coward over and over destabilizing his rule and in good time she will topple him and take the crown for herself.Vect calls her out that she doesn't want to rule. Lelith says indeed she doesn't but Vect forced her into this by continuing his plans to control her. So here comes her offer. She will spare him and not war with him if she is allowed to come and go as she chooses. She is free to aid Yvraine if she wishes. However, Yvraine's life is not part of this deal. If Yvraine proved to be too weak and got herself killed by Vect's assassins then she proved herself unworthy of Lelith's help. Furthermore, Vect will leave Morghana alone. Any attack against her is an attack against Lelith.Vect agrees to the deal but criticizes Lelith for showing her weakness (Her love for Morghana) but Lelith responds that she is strong enough to display her weaknesses. Another thing Vect makes clear, Lelith had thrown away her ability to launch the first strike on him if they ever clashed again. Next time Vect will be prepared for her. Turns out that the whole thing was engineered by a Great Harlequin who wants to create an opposing force in the Dark City to Vect and his status quo. The Aeldari cause needs Dark City to enter the Great Dance and that won't happen as long as Vect keeps it stagnant. Lelith's influence will allow the Dark City to commit to it to a degree.
>>93177200>and fight himWait he can fight? I just thought he was fat and clever.
>>93174448ENTER
>>93177177>Deldar are immune to chaos through pain.Chaos Drukhari appeared in a few novels.>Eldar are immune to chaos through meditation and spirit stones.A corrupted warlock appeared in the same novels.>Tau are immune to chaos because they gave teeny tiny souls. (definitely not necrons)Farsight story is about him struggling with Chaos and being the verge of falling.>Necrons are immune to chaos because they have NO souls.A Necron was possessed by Lucius and Vashtorr is currently corryptiung Necron tech.>Votann are just asspull sturdy due to living so close to chaos planets.The Warhammer + loremaster episode about the Kin said that Chaos Kin are rare but not unheard of.Vashtorr recently corrupted Ironkin.>The Tyranid hive mind is so psychically powerful it completely fucks up the warp on planets with enough tyranids that destabilize demons and drives psykers insane.Tyranids were corrupted by Khorne on Baal Secundus during the short period of the Hivemind's death and reawawkening.
Reminder - All "lore" is hearsay and propaganda. Of course an eldar is going to say he killed 3 custodian guards while breakdancing and of course some chaos dark apostle is going to say he came from the future and chaos has already won. Every story is somebody's glow up.
>>93177236>A Necron was possessed by Lucius and Vashtorr is currently corryptiung Necron tech.The one fucking theme of necrons is being immune. The xeno equivalent of chaos to the Imperium. A force they can't truly beat.
>>93177222He fights on his throne. Lelith had to get him off his throne to beat him. He fights with the Scepter of the Dark City and some sort of weapon that fires balls of pure darkness. He also seemingly doesn't feel pain. Lelith cut his hands but felt nothing come from him.

>>93177256Not since the Newcron retcon.Now you have Vashtorr who can read Necron minds in the Warp and whisper to them.
>>93177256never was a thing
Are gaunts ghosts worth the read?
>>93177261I imagine at this point in life the only pain he could even feel would be full on demon possession. Probably from a demon prince level.
>>93177287Yes.
>>93177250Of course a rouge trader had a three way with a sister, eldar, and necron.
>>93177287Some of them. There's so many that they're hit and miss by sheer volume alone. Necropolis and Traitor General are my favourites
>>93177261Considering that some Dark Eldar have been alive since the Fall, doing all kinds of fucked up shit just for the heck of it, Vect probably is one of those sickos who has done it all. Pain barely even registers anymore after millennia of drug abuse, torture, and all other kinds of hedonism and degeneracy.
>>93177344One must wonders if he can even feel love. The strongest drug in the world.
>>93174505Painted up a quick Lamenter. Fitting since I lost my job today
>>93177375That's what you get for jerking off on the clock.
any kits at all with this vibe?dress shirt and pistol holsters, or "agent wearing light formal wear" more generally?
>>93177396Not in Warhammer, at least 40k. Might have a witch hunter in aos or 40k though.
>>93177396That's not really the vibe, closest you'll get is some inquisition thing
>>93177396Try necromunda
>>93177396
>>93177485If Zoro was an Ork.
>>93177485Not enough knives!
>>93177375Sorry b. Any skills or plans on what to do next? I always suggest GDT (geometric dimensioning and tolerancing). They are small textbooks (probably find the basics online for free) on the language of engineering drawings. Every shop needs dudes who know that shit. Good luck champ.
>>93177306That's hot...
>>93177375Lovely damage on the dude, and I always love seeing MK V helmets. Sorry to hear about your job bro
>>93175288You forgot chaos demons kek
>>93177048>callidus assassinsI though it was colexus ones.
>>93176253it's depend on the world they lived on i think
Whats a good base for drukhari?Im using incubi darkness for my army
>>93177910like basing material?
>>93177917Yes and colors
>>93177937how much effort you willing to put in? and whats your price limit?you can buy printed eldar/dark eldar themed bases, or print your own if you can. you can use the old standby terrain paste and tuftsyou could cut plasticard to make tiles or cobblestoneyou can get greenstuff rollerscould use greenstuff to try to make an impression mold off of a raider ship deck grate and give your guys ship deck bases
Are genestealers or hormagaunts better for melee nids?
>>93178007Genestealers, though gonna be honest, melee nids still suck after the changes.
is the doomhammer a good baneblade variant choice if I want to go "mmm fuck you here's a mob of guard on the center point have fun getting past the tank to stop them faggot"? out of the variants that can work as transports it seems like the most well fitted to deal with big units and fit exactly 20 guardsmen plus a command squad plus a bonus officer
>>93177990>could use greenstuff to try to make an impression mold off of a raider ship deck grate and give your guys ship deck basesDamn thats a cool idea i have some bluestuff
>>93178173>Damn thats a cool idea i have some bluestuffThat won't work is has to be greenstuff
>>93178187lol
>>93178242no
>>93177200>>93177028What a cringe, even Thorpe not so bad
>>93178242Traitor scum.
>>93174492Wow this art is terrible. Straight off of deviantart or someshit.
>>93178242Post your slop elsewhere
>>93174505Good work Anon, I just finished my Lion El’Jonson.Now to just make rules for him for 5th edtion…
I just saw these inquisitorial stormtroopers from a recaster and I have to say wowza what a kino model.
>>93178429i own 26 of these minis and only 1 of them are a recast. 6 of them are plasma guns btw captcha swvsns
Conversion bros, what plasticard do you use? Most of the sheets I've seen on amazon are about 0.5-1 mm thick, I'm assuming this is the standard
>>93178500I use Tamiya "pla plate" in 0.5mm thickness. Plastic cement works on it, and you can snap it after just scoring it with a hobby knife.
>>93176943>Makes sense. Is kinda tragic.Thorpe your "tragedies" always ends up as farceAlso, makes sens why your Ynnari series bombed
>>93175409Because anyone who joined during Covid does not give a fuck about painting they just want to be the next richard siegler or whatever that gigavirgins name is
>>93178521Ynnari as a whole bombed hard, never seen or heard anybody who likes them. I think they only continue to exist because they're the pet project of somebody important at GW.
>>93178429>inquisitorial stormtroopersThey're just stormtroopers.
>>93178363https://www.deviantart.com/ukitakumuki/art/Hammerhead-Down-40K-315545763Mindbroken
man the 30k audio books for world eaters are good.
>>93178535That's because aliens doesn't work well with sci-fi
>>93177048There was an old snippet of flavor text in a codex in which a Farseer or Warlock was seething about culexus assassins and human blanks in general. Saying something along the lines of>You idiots have no idea what you're dealing with, you have no idea what those things *actually* are...Wish I could find it again
>>93178554Nah aliens absolutely do work in sci-fi. Just look at how many dedicated Ork players there are. The issue with Ynnari is most likely that they're a soup of pre-existing factions with no identity of their own besides the mary sue vibes. And nobody likes souping factions.
>>93178554This has to be bait.
>>93178575>Just look at how many dedicated Ork players there are.Yeah all 3 of them oncluding Mike Brooks
>>93178573Eldar must be scared shitless over the pariah gene humans can have, considering they use psychic abilities for pretty much every part of their daily lives and beyond. In some stories even wraithbone just evaporates when in proximity to a strong enough pariah.
>>93178246Give a coherent reason why it's bad.
i can't choose between bloodaxes, deathskulls or bad moonz>bloodaxessneaky orks are funny, even more that every other ork thinks they're untrustworthy gits, seems like you can be pretty free with how you paint them too>deathskullsblue is a nice colour and orks that stop fighting just so they can steal more are also pretty funny>bad moonsi like that they're rich and like to flaunt it, and their colour scheme is super flashywhich one should I choose tg?
>>93178611Weak bait.
>>93178639It looks like modern Star WarsAlso>a guy who maages to stay alive for 10k due to his tenacity and cunning suddenly cannot bait 2 dumb lesbian murder hobos to kill each other
>>93178669It's not a bait
>>93178673Good point, women barely need a reason to want to destroy one another to begin with.
>>93177028>A flashback of Lelith fighting space marines and stripping their leader out of his armor and then his skin.Are we surely talking about race whose best martial fighter failed to dodge moprtally wounded marine burried by heavy bolter and backpack with ammo?
>>93178639This >>93178673 and also gay shit
>>93178673I will add>Dark Eldar becomes clanners when plot demands so Vect cannot trick out of Batchall
>>93178575>nobody likes souping factionsFuck you, I want my imperial guard army with one unit of Battle sisters, a skittari detachment guarding my techpriest, one unit of Space Wolves, ne unit of Inquisitorial Henchmen from the kill team box and my kitbashed Inquisitor along with my kitbashed canis rex.Soup is flavor, its tournament faggotry that makes it bad.
>>93178726You're in the minority, most people only want to play their chosen faction(s) purely on their own. But tournament faggotry could have made people dislike soup even more.
>>93176854>>93177200>>93177028AYYYYYY LMAOHow will Eldarfags recover?>Yvraine isn't ready yet to believe Shalaxi that the final sword is kept inside Slanesh's palace. She is still looking for clues to its whereabouts. LMAO as if Ynnari weren't in poor situation already. Ladies and gentlemen, we witnessing the first 40k faction existing completely on pure copium. Ironically it's also LGTQA+-=:*-designated faction
>>93178755>Ynnari being the designated LGBT+ factionThat makes zero sense, Eldar culture is so different than humanity's and they're so inherently faggot-y, Eldar most likely don't even have a distinction for being gay.
>>93178770and here comes copium from homosexual.
>>93178726Okay snowflake
>>93178779What you mean? I'm just trying to say that eldar are such degenerates that being gay or whatever is unremarkable to them.

>>93178785Cope more, fag.
>>93178805Nope, just plastic cement. It's plastic after all.
>>93178783NOOOOOOOOOOOoooo YOU CANT JUST LIKE ALL THE COOL SHIT IN 40K YOU HAVE TO BUILD THE SAME GUARDSMEN 500 TIMES OR YOUR WOKE NOOOOOOOOOOO
>>93178770>Eldar culture is so different than humanity's to the point it imitates modern California with 100% accuracy
>>93178825Exactly now go and write another fujo fanfic about your snowflakes
>>93178726Anybody who doesn't want to see His might full arrayed is probably a Chaos worshipper.
>>93178546That retard uses a slop generator you retard
>>93177039Literally not a soul is angry with femstodes. We love muscle mommies and fem marines have been one of the most requested things from GW here for a while now.
