>TQCan I buy that from GW?
>>93256672Post minis (even if they are a wip)
>>93256672Of course, that's a big part of the funI couldn't imagine not thinking about /yourdudes/ clashing with the opponent's army and wreaking total war
>>93256722Did these the other day
>>93256722Here's all I've got painted so far
>>93256621As long as you don't have a ton of flaky ass shit like basing stuff, you should be able to run your minis through water gently and the dust goes off.
>>93256753I'm too afraid the evil water will steal all the paint from my funny little models.
>>93256722Just started working on these Meganobz, how do they look so far?
Since dark eldar don't use wrathbone doesn't that mean it's possible to reverse engineer their tech?
Could he take down the ruinous powers
>>93256763It absolutely will not as long as you've primed them. You do prime your models right? Either way, just let them air dry fully (long) or use a good air blower on lower settings followed by a final air dry. I've done it without issue for years now.
>>93256774didnt realise that blood axes used meganobz desu, nice work anon
>>93256774unboxed only 1/10trim and fill the sprue gates and sand the rims with a 1000 grit
>>93256722Just basecoated these with this weirdly awesome blue, it doesn't quite capture on camera but it's so vibrant.Also, I want to ask how do you all feel about the Eldar refresh? (So far)
>>93256802>>93256805Yeah, I'm just getting back into 40K after a 15ish year hiatus. Need some extra bases from Amazon so I can figure out how to best use some crackle for dry desert bases.
>>93256722First shirtless hombre painted up. I rarely ever see these dudes painted.
>>93256741lookin' good. where's Azrael?
>>93256744Not much done judging by the age of some of those models
>>93256672They're firing laser guns. Why would there be muzzle flash?
>>93256774I think you might have went a bit heavy on the purple, maybe consider doing a bit more for secondary colour(s)?
>>93256854laser superheated the gasses in the chamber and they ignited
>>93256862Good enough for me.
>>93256846Hes painted to a much better quality that my friend did for me as a gift before Adepticon last March.
>>93256849anon I've only recently started painting, much less playing the game againthis is a decent chunk of the Tyranids I own
>>93256722biiiggggg smiles
>>93256744I like the solo Ripper leading the charge.You should get him based and named.
>>93256849post yours then
>>93256889Not an excuse
>>93256744>that bookYou lucky man, anon.
>>93256904I'm fond of that little guy as he was intended to go on my Hive Tyrant's base, but while the digestion pool was sculpted with him in mind the capillary bits winded up curving just far enough to where I couldn't fit him in anymore and I couldn't find another place to put him on it. So instead I decided to just make him a token for the Hive Tyrant.I don't know what name I'll give him, but I'm going to take the piece of meat from the old Kroot sprue and turn it into a plate of BBQ Ribs that he's going to have with him.
>>93256744>tfw that old tyrant guardive still got that one somewhere, honestly prefer those ones over the newer chunky guard
>>93256672>nu-cadiansHow bad are the moudlines on those new Cadian models?
>>93256948It's not, it's just an explanation.I probably could've gotten more done by now if I didn't spend about 2 hours on each Termagant, but I think it's worth it honestly. I'm pretty happy with how everything looks so far.>>93256958I found that thing at a used book store what must've over a decade ago; I had no idea what a steal it was at the time but I'm very fond of it. The Hierodule was something I'd always wanted so I was very glad to finally get my hands on a genuine one, and I got it at a really good price too only for GW to discontinue and legend them a few months after I obtained it. I'm hoping it gets a plastic kit so the rules won't just be scrapped in later editions, but it's still kind of a bummer.Doesn't change how cool it is though, I still think it was worth it.
>>93256995There are almost none
>>93256722Had fun with these guys. Can’t wait to paint up the other 5 some day in the future.
>>93257039Nice face on the sniper, need to lighten the skin a bit though, looks too washed out even if he’s supposed to be brown.
>>93256992If I was going to have a full squad I thought it'd be cool if I had one of each since I'm very fond of all the Tyrant Guard models. Having it in my hands now, the OG one has got some genius bits to it, like how the weapon is a gun that's shooting tentacles to make a literal pistol whip, or the shield having holes in it for the spines to shoot out. Love the face too. I must admit my favorite one is the 4e one though, since that's the one I had the longest and I just find it really endearing to look at.I wish they'd give Tyrant Guard the ability to have spinefists again, but I don't think it'll happen unfortunately. But at least they got some nice weapon variety now.
Was thinking an Idiocracy style comedy with Gulliman would be fucking great. He wakes up from the coma and takes in how weird Imperium has become.IIRC, doesn't he find all the space marines wearing skeletons/skulls on their power armor quite crass and strange?
One of my marine's bolters fell off so I had to proxy an eldar shuriken gun. Feels like heresy.
>>93256722
>>93257074Cherubs fuck him up a fair bit, the skulls and bones stuff was already pretty common during the crusade.
>To get access into the Super Secret Do not Distrurb™ traitor base, the Iron hand has to remove his (iron) hand and program it to unlock the doors walking Thing styleCould it be kino?
>>93256722Too lazy to take a WIP shot so have an old one, but I am back on finishing my tentacle face bugs. I have 4 leapers, a neurolictor and a second lictor to finish. Currently working on a leaper alpha.
>>93256813Red heads
Would it be bad etiquette to play a deff dread/Boomdakka Snazzwagon in a 500 point game?They are fun models
>>93257129No? Those are exactly the sort of vehicle models you should be expected to field at 500 points.
>>93257102Would be sick. Especially if the hand returns and he’s pulped lol
>>93256774those are clearly Kommandos
>>93257016>I'm pretty happy with how everything looks so farYou really shouldn't be
>>93257125>>93256813what blue?
>>93256722WIP wulfen
>>93256722Old assassin. I know transitions are chunky, but I still like how she came out.
>>93257016I don't know why this dude is going after you so hard, but your nids look fine.
Can someone explain how to play Sisters like you're talking to a five year old?
>>93257262>Can someone explain how to play Sisters like you're talking to a five year old?May I speak to your husband?
>>93257282I'm a dudeAnd single ;_;
>>93257293If you look good in leggings maybe you won't be anymore.
>>93257302Too fat and hairy
Nid bros, how big are your zoan units? I usually play at 1000pts, and I use 2 units of 3, but I'm not sure if one full unit is actually better
>>93256672>TQIt’s a struggle every time not to make pew pew noises. And I have a 70 page pdf about stories I’ve fashioned from games.>>93256744Cool Nids, what actually happens in that book? I’ve heard “Jurassic park with nids”.Anyone else who can, post cool Nids.
>>93257319Big unit with a neurotyrant is most powerful.
>>93256744Maybe its because its standing straight on its hind legs but that old Tyrant guard is really unnerving. No eyes, massive maw of teeth, really eerie.
>>93257319I'm probably going to paint mine soon; I'm planning to field one unit of six with a Neurotyrant to lead them now that they can attach to it since the +1 to hit sounds like it's going to be great fun to use. If you're not going to do that though, two units would probably be better so the opponent has to split fire to kill them.>>93257252Thanks anon. I wasn't really taking anything that guy was saying to heart though. He's probably just messing around.
>>93257293It's OK anon, just do what /yourdudes/ would do to get a partner.
>>93257360I should say, it turns out you can kill a Zoan blob with a single squad of assault intercessors on an objective. So be careful around breathable ruins so they can charge without getting overwatched.
>>93257352>>93257360Great suggestion, thanks anons!
>>93257343>I’ve heard “Jurassic park with nids”.Pretty much.Mechanicus have some nids in cages to study. Don't notice when some gaunts develop the organs necessary to reproduce and then their offspring burrow out and go off to infest the planets biosphere.Next thing they know the admech base is getting assaulted by a full on tyranid swarm including biotitans.
>>93257343Thanks, I appreciate it. Glad your Salamanders are still around as well.And yeah the book's story is pretty fun. IIRC, essentially an Inquisitor goes down to a planet with some IG and the Red Scorpions to investigate and finds the Magos had been running experiments on the Tyranids to study them in captivity only for them to start breeding underground and flood the planet; the Inquisitor dramatically underestimates the number at first but once he realizes the full extent he tries to leave only to discover all his reinforcements have been delayed and his ships can't take him off the planet anymore. The Red Scorpions lose a Dreadnought and some of their members but manage to regroup with the survivors, and promptly ditch the planet since the Inquisitor told them not to try and rescue their fellow battle brothers, essentially leaving him to die. He and his remaining forces bunker down and expend almost all their resources they have left to barely kill the Hierophant Bio-Titan, prompting the Inquisitor to be relieved at first, but then he sees two more in the distance and just gives up in despair.It's eventually revealed the Inquisitor's mentor who promised him aid if he went to investigate the planet backstabbed him by deliberately underplaying the threat level and then requisitioned/sabotaged his support so he could run his own studies on the Tyranids, and is trying to find a way to make a new kind of Space Marine that's more resistant to the Hive Mind via the Red Scorpions. He's implied to be assassinated for his efforts.>>93257358Honestly part of why I love it so much.
>>93257343>post cool Nids.Well I think it's cool. Shame the rules have been dropped.
>>93256722Reposting my Boyz. Ultraorks coming up soon
>>93257343I mean technically I used the body of a psychophage for Shuugash here lol
Made this picture 30 minutes ago, don't know where to post it.
>>93257437sneed
>>93257437This gave me a chub.
>>93257343Here's my coolest nid yet.
>>93257451That is a really fuckin cool Nid holy shit.
>>93257451A bit thick on the lines at some parts, but not bad anon not badthose tentacles are quite nice
>>93257451probably one of the best paint jobs ever in these threads anon. amazing work. posting random smol guys
>>93257467>>93257465Thanks bros. Never let them tell you you're too inexperienced to do cool stuff.
>>93257475Hi praise anon, thanks a lot, I'll cherish it.Now I gotta think up what I wanna do to go even further when I paint the rest of my nids. The only other big models I got on the horizon are a pair of hive tyrants and a norn emissary. I can see myself doing a similar pattern on the hive tyrant's wings, but I dont think the emissary has much room for freehanding.
>>93257343Need to take a new photo, but this is what I’ve got
>>93257486NTA but I think it'd be cooler if you kept the pattern for the Deathleaper. You don't need to try to push yourself to go big for the rest of them.Tyranids are tailor made for kitbashing so why not kitbash one of the Hive Tyrants for your fleet? I made my Hive Tyrant the ol' classic, but that's just because I genuinely think that look is so bloody awesome that I want him to be that way and he's my favorite guy in my army. But I did kitbash my OOE-Carnifex a lot and gave it the DoW2 treatment and it's a contender for second favorite among my guys. If you think it'd be cool I'd suggest trying to just have fun with one of the Tyrants you've got and see if you're happy to either have it as the classic treatment or make it more personalized.You could even use parts from the Norn Kit that you didn't use.
I want to buy a IG combat patrol set to play other sci-fi skirmish games. Never played or bought WH40k before.Is this a good idea? The minis in the box seem good, with a mech even (which is what I need) --sentinel, I think.
>>93257514Thats very true. I havent actually decided what I'm gonna do with the hive tyrants yet. So far I only considered that I definitely want 1 to be winged with the tail and such, and the other footed, maybe with the cannon. I dont even know if I can use both in an army (not like Ive played any games yet, I just enjoy the painting/building of the models) But I definitely want to kitbash one of them somehow, use all the extra bits to make something fun. And yeah since I want the deathleaper to be the leader of the army, I might keep his cloak pattern unique. Instead what I wanted to do for a while is give the winged hive tyrant a bee wing pattern like pic. We'll see how that goes when I get to it.
>>93257549I'm presuming you're aiming for Vanguard when you do play? Having play with my guys a few times, the Hive Tyrant is pretty boss, and yeah you could use both of them an in army (though I don't think most people would). Winged counts as VI so it'd fit with the Deathleaper more.If you can find some plastic insect wings you could also try to substitute those for the normal ones for a more bug-like look. But giving the wings vein-like patterns would also be pretty gnarly. If I had any big winged Nids I likely would try something like that too.
>>93257545https://wargamesatlantic.com/collections/demo-collectionThere are better alt minatures than what that comabt patrol offers. Go to the alternative war game thread and ask for more recs.
>>93257582kys
>>93257585uh oh gw piggy meltie
>>93257568Yeah aside from deathleaper and a neurolictor, all my tyranid models come from the leviathan box + the christmas battleforce. So when (if) I get to playing sometime this century, I should have a good enough mix to be able to try out all the different detachments, starting with Vanguards. Sorry, no 3000 points of gaunts for the endless swarm here.
>>93257187Vallejo cobalt blue
>>93257582Nta but I don't really like these at all. I don't really like the first party guard models to begin with but I find something is always lost with the 3rd party stuff
>>93257669Yeah, the price.
>>93257451Turned out really cool anon great work. I'm glad you stuck through the process
>>93257673and the art direction and quality
>>93257243Why they so arms
>>93257582heroic scale a shit
>>93257486You can just, do patterns on other parts.Spots around the shoulders, back of the head are common.Carapace plates are somewhere you can just do what ever.There's also striping or banding you could do on the limbs.
>>93257680Combining the official wulfen arms and heads with reiver bodies.
>>93256722Last thing I added to my lamenters back in may
>>93257704>>93256722Fuq thought I cropped that one already
>>93257704>>93257714-10vp
>>93257714where are your bases
>>93257722Fuck you mean bases bro it's a tank lmao>>93257717Everything is painted and highlighted what are you on about
>>93257722it doesn't hover zoomie
>>93257714Nice work, the yellow is smooth.Those checks are well done.
>>93257262When you need to do something, use the special dice
>>93257735-10VP because sad boys always suffer. Thems the rules
>>93257722It's a tonk, it doesn't have a base.
>>93257766>it doesn't have a base.Then the model is not counted as "Battle Ready" because you have to have basing to achieve that as per GW, ergo -10vp
Models without bases should be legends desu. Especially something like the defiler or the baneblade.
>>93257764They don't need an extra -10vp to lose/suffer if im rolling the dice.>>93257755Thanks anon I picked lamenters cause I love painting yellow, and checks seemed like a significant enough challenge to keep me engaged. >>93257782I'm not putting a base on something not intended to be used with a base. Also I only play with my friends so I don't really have to deal with autism appeasement rules like the -10vp deal or no legends in matched play
>>93257806>Thanks anon I picked lamenters cause I love painting yellow, and checks seemed like a significant enough challenge to keep me engaged.You should ignore the checker and work on learning to paint yellow without it looking like shit instead
>>93257806Relax Anon, it's just some trolling.No one actually thinks tanks need bases to count as battle ready
>>93257825I do, but only at tournaments because it REALLY upsets the "Pro Painters"
>>93257262>Bringers of Flame, Penitent HostYour girls are going to die, so they need to kill something worth more points than their squad before that happens.>Hallowed Martyrs, Army of FaithYour girls are going to die, so you need to make sure they die in the most frustrating manner to deny your opponent's scoring.This is clearly an oversimplification, but you can generally conceptualize their detachments as aggressive or grinding. Acts of Faith is a fantastic army rule that's always relevant, but since it's basically cheating, Sisters don't necessarily get fancy toys for cheap.
>>93257825They absolutely need bases
>>93257820>(You)There you go anon you got your 4chan internet point
>citadel minis>not Games Workshop minisSo if the paints and the models are both citadel, is Games Workshop just the publisher? Could they theoretically publish other company's minis also?
>>93257451Nice
>>93257451Fantastic
>>93256672God the new Cadian models suck fetid ass.
>>93257890Ok grognard
>>93256979>I don't know what name I'll give himI propose Lil' Bob.
>>93257890Would the new Cadians look better if their gear designs stayed the same?
>>93257890Yeah, desu most 28mm units look like ass apart from the gsc ones. Idk how they did it.
>>93257913Possibly. Those chin straps and the kneepads are particularly awful looking.
>>93257922I'm gonna be honest I don't know why GW changed the look of the gear of the Cadians when it was the proportions that were the problem with the previous Cadian models. It became more iconic than the Cadians in their first iteration given how long they had been around for.Maybe it was change for the sake of change. I couldn't tell ya. I remember an anon saying he was going to commission STL makers to remake the previous Cadians with the new Cadian proportions and had like 1KUSD on offer and everybody who offered to work for him bailed out and refunded his money so he gave up.
>>93257904>he's a grognard for preferring the the previous Cadian design over the new onesI remember when preferring firstborn marines over the Primaris made someone a grog. What does grognard even mean at this point?
>>93256777I dont know
>>93257861Citadel is technically a subsidiary of GW that produces their in-house minis and is the brand used for their hobby supplies.>Could they theoretically publish other company's minis also?Yep. They started off making minis for D&D and other TTRPGs in the 70s, well before Warhammer existed.They have done licensed minis and been commissioned to make minis for other companies. They were making minis based on Star Trek, Judge Dredd, Doctor Who and even Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit before the movies came out. GW managed to get the license to the movie's depiction so that they could publish the LOTR strategy battle game; later the Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game. They also distributed specialist minis like Chronicle Minis, Iron Claw Minis and Marauder Minis. Though all those were eventually just folded into Citadel's main line.
>>93257890>literally the same models but with kneepads>this ruins the model somehow You niggers will complain about anything.
>>93257967Autism knows no bounds
>>93256722finished the army list, but now working on alternate loadouts for them. Converting some flamethrowers so I can run these units as catachan if I want.
>>93256672You are playing with (quite expensive) toy soldiers that probably took at least hours buiilding and painting, you better be using your imagination.
>>93257967>literally the same models
>>93258005these really look like shit.
>>93257997Some people like to pretend they're playing chess when playing 40k when in reality the most soulful way to play is by imagining your writing a narrative for your guys with every turn
>>93258015I agree the ones on the right of each image look uncanny and dumpy. Proportions much less cartoony and retarded on the left
>>93257125Slow down a little anon. The colors are great but you're getting some bad coverage on some of them. Give the red on the gun another coat after it fully dries and a few of the helmets.
>>93258015the point of the image isn't to make them look better
>>93257698I gotta go to sleep rn but please tell me more what you mean by striping and banding, im unfamiliar, and I'll look into it tomorrow.
>>93257967that guy is the kneepad autist
>>93258005retvrn to tradition
>>93258024The ones on the left are realistic but are still failures so now they look off in their own way. litteraly nothing more than just a sidegrade.
>>93258005>standard uniform is green>green almost nowhere to be found on most battlefields
>>93258071it's almost like they're models colored to contrast their bases instead of melt into them or something
>>93258048We can go further.
I'm gonna be a fucking faggot and buy the IG battleforce box AND the limited Codex! I don't give a damn if it's overpriced and the book is made irrelevant in a week! I love Cadia! I love Guardsmen! I hate the faggot Nightlord player who said all my guardsmen were gonna get executed for looking at daemons! Fuck you I blew up your dreads! AND I'LL DO IT AGAIN!
a decent 3d printer would cost you a 1/3 of all of that.
>>93258005Unironically the edited Cadian on the right picture with the longer lasgun is a near perfect visual on what the new Cadians should have looked like. Just needs the kneepads removed.And updated guardsmen from other regiments like Vostroyans (inb4 Les Grognards), Valhallans, Catachan (inb4 Spacenam), Steel Legion, Mordian IronGuard, praetorians, and whatever I may have forgotten to name.Cadian fatigue set in over a decade ago kind of like Oghram demonstrated marine fatigue.
>Look for starter sets>Sold out>Tons scalping on Ebay for 2x normal store pricesIs this typical for 40k?
>>93258120yeah look for a better wargame. Its overpriced for no reason outside of brit bong land.
>>93258124it's overpriced in britbongland too
>>93258120Yes. They under-produce kits to ensure they sell out, because totally sold out in minutes and repeatably selling out are statements that sells well to investors. There's two ways to get kits of 40k beyond that>pay 2x the prince from ebay scalpersor>wait 6 months and get them 20% reduced in price from local storesEither way, fuck you and your plans. Look for third party, unless you're planning on playing in a GW store/tournaments then Third Party is usually the best way to go.
>>93257834Gotcha. I play Army of Faith because I like jetpacks and more consistency. I'll try to keep the idea of harrying rather than trading in mind.
>>93257243They are horrible
>>93258120Look into older stuff still on sprue from Imperium magazine on ebay, these should sell for reasonable prices. Or look into 3d printing.
Ok, after changing my Deathwatch list and tried a different approach, I still got soundly beaten in two turns. I'm not really sure what I did wrong this time, so some feedback on this would be appreciated.>My listDeathwatch. Blackspear 1k points-Gravis Captain with Power Fist (Beacon Angelis, Warlord)-Chaplain on Bike-2x Veteran DW Veterans -2x Vanguards on Jump Pack (storm shield)-Agressors (6 models)-Outriders (6 models)>My opponent's listVanilla Space Marines - Gladius-Librarian-Captain Terminator-1 sternguard veterans (10 units)-1 terminator squad-1 inceptor-gladator tank-predator tankI leave my agressor in deepstrike thanks to beacon angelis, my opponent leaves his terminators and inceptors as well. He starts the game, he moves his tanks to just barely see my bikes, and he pretty much wipes them turn one. I then try to move and put my vanguards on the NML objectives, and charge the predator to try and block it. However, he moves the tank and puts the sternguard at the center, finishing the bikes and the vanguards (storm shields didn't do shit). I then deploy the agressors and I manage to nearly wipe the sternguard, only leaving the librarian and one sternguard after shooting and charging (which I managed to pull off, somehow). He then counterdeploys his termies and quickly erodes my agressors into nothing. By the end of turn 3, I have only a veteran squad occupying an objective, so I'm screwed. As for secondaries, from the very beginning I got the "destroy units", so I only managed to score at the very end. I'm not sure what I could have done there. My strategy was to try to occupy as much space as possible from the beginning and try to score early on, but I feel I lack both attacking power and resilience.Also, if my opponent sees this, good game, it was fun.
>>93258190you're shit is getting deleted after this month pendejo.
>>93257437KEK can you do one with deldar?
Store had an incident today>friday nights is open play night>tends to be a lot of spectators and secondaries>one in particular (not his real name: Jay) was well known>Jay didn't have any 40k models>but if you asked him for food, he would buy it>if you would try and repay, he'd decline, insist he's just giving back>word got around pretty quick that night>store has a fat annoying guy, Tim (not the real name)>Tim asks Jay for a hot dog and fry plate from across the street>jay does so, hand over food with a smile>Tim takes one bite, says "taste like shit" and then just brushes the plate off the table>doesn't even throw it away, just knocks it over, makes a mess, looks at Jay and goes "clean it up">jay does so, then disappears for the night>most of us think Jay's just gone>closing hours come>everyone's filing out to parking lot>Including Tim, who's putting his models away>Jay walks up to Tim>we're expecting talking or a little shovefest>jay immediately starts slugging Tim in te face>is screaming "BUY ME A HOT DOG">wtf>despite the weight advantage, Jay has Tim in his grips>is now just headbutting him constantly in the face, screaming the same shit about hot dogs>Tim's face is a bloody mess, takes 3 of us to pull Jay off>cops are called, Jay is arrested, Tim has a broken nose and missing teeth>Tim tries to act tough, goes "haha, what a fucking weirdo">just uhu-huhs and yeahs from the crowd, no one really empathizingShit, how did your friday go
>>93258221Well that escalated quickly if true, how come Tim wasn't kicked out when he knocked over the hotdog?
>>93258221It shames me to say I was That Guy tonight. for Friday MtG, not 40k
>>93258193>pendejo>you're
>>93258221Yea thinking the same as >>93258234what a shitty group not "kickban" him immediatly for life. Now jay is in trouble because you guys did not back him up how he deserved and he had to clean up that mess(tim) himfelf. (IF any of this is true).To answer your question i mostly painted an Armiger Warglaive.
>>93258190Don't just run Aggressors. Run an Indomitor Kill Team (or two) with a Watch Master and Apothecary Biologus. That way you have 1-2 Aggressors (it calls them Heavy Intercessors with Power Fist), but also 1-2 Eradicators (Heavy Intercessors with Melta Rifles) and 1-2 Plasma Inceptors (Heavy Intercessors with Jump Packs) in the squad with 5 regular Heavy Intercessors to be ablative wounds.Just a big blob of 30 wounds at T6.Drop either the Van Vets or Outriders. Just take one of them to be your fast-moving objective grabber. Or fold the Outriders into a Fortis Kill Team. Can take 2 leading a bunch of Intercessors, meaning you have a fast moving unit that can make charges very short. Also, the whole unit counts as T5 as long as they're alive.Use something cheap like an Infiltrator Squad to just hump the backline objective and prevent deepstrikes. A 5-man unit of Deathwatch Terminators with 3 Cyclone Missile Launchers is a good Deepstrike threat.I wouldn't bother with the regular DW Vets. Run a Proteus Kill Team. That way they can have Vets, Van Vets, Bikers and Terminators all in one squad.And as with Fortis, they count as T5 as long as a Biker or Terminator is still alive.I see you're only at 1k points, and don't have that much to play with, but just some food for thought. If you're playing Death Watch, embrace the Death Watch special units.
>>93258221Does every gaming group have a Tim type character?
>>93258234because it's a 4chan story
>>93258193The chad danny trejoThe virgin deathwatch player
>>93258261isesn't change the fact youare shit is getting canned
>>93258278NTA just defending basic literacy, Paco
>>93258234>"accidentally" knocking over a plate of food>comparable to snapping and nearly killing a guyYou know people do shit "accidentally" on purpose all the time anon
>>93258190>I'm not really sure what I did wrong this time1 - You're playing 1K points, every game is always a blowout one way or another2 - You're playing space marines, and not using the good unitsThe space marine roster is so big, that 95% of it is always trash at any one time, it's just unavoidable. If everything in the marine book was good, marines would be the only faction worth playing because they have a unit that's supposed to be good at everything.3 - Deathwatch aren't a real army in 10E. Their unique units fundamentally conflict with the GW design goals for 10E, no wargear points, and all options in the box. GW can't allow them to be good.
>>93258302milliput?
>>93258284>being racistYour army is next cabron
>>93258309my generic primaris army nooooo
>>93258308Milliput, 0.7 and 1.2mm ball bearings.
>>93258221Tim is a fag and Jay is a retard.Neither deserve sympathy.
>>93258288The knock over is not the real problem but the reactions afterwards, to not clean it up and COMMANDING someone else to do it. THAT is a no go.
>>93258235>That spoilerGo have a shower anon
>>93258221Jay was in the rightThat fat fuck was taught an important lesson today
>>93257806Drill your Assault Cannon barrels
I had an incident at my LGS last week>Guy, let's call him Bill, comes in with 1k points of orks>I have 1k points of guard>We play 40k>2ish hours later the game concludes 30-48>We shake hands, pack up, and leave
>>93258336
>>93258334>over arrogant decadent ass sides with the psychoWell, I shouldn't be too surprised. These cunts brought Slaanesh into existance.
>>93258344Sounds like bullshit, why are you spreading such lies, anon?
>>93257933>I'm gonna be honest I don't know why GW changed the look of the gear of the CadiansTo make their fanbase feel like their current models are out of date.
New Drukhari Leaks!
>>93257933>I'm gonna be honest I don't know why GW changed the look of the gear of the CadiansTo bring them up to modern standard and style.This is nothing new, GW changed the "artstyle" for their model ever since 40k began.
>>93258016I wish I had someone to play unbalanced home games.Can only play with club dudes that obviously want a regular match.But it would be great to have someone to play crusade or random games with homebrew objectives and tables.
>>93258106>all my guardsmen were gonna get executed for looking at daemons!Isn't this outdated since Guilliman came back?My understanding is that the warp and daemons and shit are better understood in the 42nd millennium
>>93258405>Isn't this outdated since Guilliman came back?No.Stop getting your lore from reddit.
>>93258405>Isn't this outdated since Guilliman came back?No, it just wasn't the most standard practice before either
>>93258411>Visiting RedditWouldn't be me, it's because I'm binging the dark imperium books and they have guardsmen obviously seeing nurglw daemons and being allowed to come back alive.Maybe it's an Ultramar thing
>>93258106Who hurt you
>>93258414Was it just the ordo malleus being cunts?
>>93258056I don't see how either models are failures. One is just older and not sculpted as well, and the other is the new version of the same thing with current gen sculpting techniques.
>>93258375CP's are always 3 units and a hq anon, your meme is close to being accurate but not quite
>>93258234Because it obviously never happened
I don't get it. Why doesn't the Imperium assassinate enemy warlords like Abaddon and Ghaz?The Imperium has literal armies of assassins. Abaddon and Ghaz lead from the front which makes them open for assassination with a sniper round. What happened to Aun'VA should be happening to all enemy leaders but it doesn't.
>>93258433If you see a character with an exposed head it's because their head is indestructible.
>>93258334>might makes right (khaine) player thinks assaulting people is perfectly normalHope you get dropped by a tranny (slaanesh) m8
>>93258421My dad died last year
>>93258416>Maybe it's an Ultramar thingIt's a modern BL thing.
>>93258433They have tried.A lot.But it's kinda hard, even with execution forces, to even get near chaos warlords that are in the fucking middle of the eye of terror, or in a massive armada, or Xenia with legions around them.Assassinorum operatives are rare and expensive, and at some point it's not worth it
>>93258444Nta but same
>>93258437Then remove the head from its base. Ghaz lost his head to Ragnar Blackmane. Abaddon nearly lost his life to Sigismund tearing him open.Space Marines got closer to killing them than any of the Imperium's super assassins.
>>93258433>Why doesn't the Imperium assassinate enemy warlords like Abaddon and Ghaz?Because it would be gay and boring if only the imperium had important dudes. Even if you're of the opinion that xenos are lame, I don't know why you wouldn't want a handful of evil villains for your buzz lightyears to hate
/tg/ is no different from reddit.
>>93258444Sucks if true but I don't understand the connection between one of your two dads dieing and seetheposting about toys on 4chan
>>93258445>>93258416Purgations happen AFTER the wars are over. Ultramar even after morty left is still fighting against waves of Chaos invasions from the Scourge Stars.You know what happens when you start purgations during an ongoing war? You get what happened in Warzone Charadon with Imperial armies turning on each other and refusing to work with the Inquisitor even as the enemy pours on them.
>>93258456it's your fault, go back
>>93258106You mean his Helbrvtes?
>>93258414>>93258405It's still the standard.The Grey Knight codex says that purges of people seeing daemons are still a thing. Not only that but because of the Great Rift and its consequences the Inquisition is even more frantic and bloody in eliminating people who see Chaos.So it only got worse.
>Go to my local Gee-dubya store and strike up convo with store dude>heys and all that then I dare bring up the conversation about missing being able to play games in the store>Store manager: "Well we concluded that it is better for our business and customers this way"I was a bit taken back the bluntness of it; why did they stop doing games in their stores? (Ausfag too)
>>93258481Funny.RIP the guard.At least most die in the actual conflict.
>>93258485Hosting games distracts the staff from selling full price GW products to people that don't know better.
>>93258485HOW is it better for customers?
>>93258485>why did they stop doing games in their stores?"More shelf space for product meaning more product will sell." I assume some retard executive said once and they put it into action.
>>93258502>HOW is it better for customers?It's not, it's just generic corporate speak.
>>93258485Big guys rolling dice and stinking up the place while not spending any money and getting in the way of Timmy and his mum. From the UK side they've downsized all the shops to smaller locations and reduced staff to one lonely manager to maximize profits. I guess it's helped them stay open physically but it's sad they've given up on being the flgs.
>Ogryn are dumb>They survive on their ownAre ogryn just iq capped cave men?I mean they are dumb but they are too often memed to be too stupid to wear clothes even though their home world would require them to make and wear clothes
>>93258520There is a female psyker Ogryn in the Mike Brroks Ghaz novel. She is smart and fond of books. She is trained to control her power by a Space Wolf Rune Priest
>>93258544>Mike Brrokslol of course
>>93258544That's sounds mighty retarded.
>>93258558Mike Brooks, Mike Brooks? Long time warhammer table top wargamer, deep lore respecting Mike Brooks? The avid painter Mike Brooks who finished this mini?Well I’ll be.
>>93258593>finished this mini?That's being generous
>>93258508Meanwhile FLGS have a ton of tables and can sell all that GW sells, more wargames, more supply brands, boardgames, assorted minis, and more.Why is GW this incompetent? It's a miracle they haven't gone under
>>93258593He... He used contrast even on the base?Fuck...
>>93258221>how did your friday goWoke up to take a piss. Looked at my 40k models and saw a spider. Killed it. Then noticed another spider. That little bastard got away and now I can't sleep right now.It is 5:02AM in the morning right now on a Saturday.
there are other kinds of paints besides contrast?
>>93258610cumtrast and pootrast.
>>93258610There's ArmyPainter speedpaints and Vallejo Xpress colors, but in my experience the Xpress colors bubbled a lot.
>>93258544Someone made a mini of Cassia, the psyker Ogryn.
>>93258034Just incidental the thread is still up when you get up.Some of the example schemes here have some stripes, spots or other patterns on the limbs, tails and carapace.These are only small gaunts so they're simple patterns. But you could really run with the concept on th larger limbs of a norn emissary.
Has anyone picked up the Kroot model from GW yet? Is it a sprue with different poses or are they all this one?I kind of want one for an Outlaw Xenos Bounty Hunter for Necromunda.... or failing that the Kroot Rifle is in the Black Market trade post so I'll just tidy it up and stick it on a Cawdor or something
>>93258520there are multiple and different subspecies of ogryns around, and nurture is a thing that influences them quite a bitthey probably range from your stock standard literal drooling retard that can fire a gun to human-like intelligence depending on the individual, but I'd guess the imperium prefers the former, more controllable
>>93258645If I do im going to put it in a cum jar
>Victoriaminiatures plans to update all its guard linesGuardbros were gonna be eating good in due time.
>>93258620h-hot
>>93258665just imagine trying to reject her advances.
>>93258620Would you like to know more?
>>93258679
>>93258620>Someone made a mini of Cassia, the psyker Ogryn.That's an old ass model.That existed even before Cassia was a thing.
