Why don't they just send the nids into the eye of terror so they can have an all you can eat buffet?
Ork bros, what detachment are you most excited to play?
>autarch takes a break from the path of command and becomes a baker or something>gets lost on that path, depriving the craftworld of their greatest generalhope those cakes were worth it
>>92603074>>Thread Question:>Can love bloom between man and toaster? And if so, would it be heresy?Such relations inevitably reach their shocking conclusion when the couple attempts to take a romantic bath together.
https://www.warhammer-community.com/2024/04/24/starting-an-ork-army-in-warhammer-40000-everything-you-need-to-know-from-painting-to-lore/This seems pretty handy. I wish the combat patrol had something else instead of 10 snaggas again. Are boyz a proper multi component kit now? Also what colour should I paint me orks?
>>92603093Is there major lore instances on what happens for Nids X Chaos?
they changed the table sizes so does that mean everyone now owns 3 dirrefent size battlemats instead of the normal 6x4 that was the norm for what 40 years
>>92603116no most people just taped off the extra edges with masking tape
Which 40k unit could make the best use of a spare sphiranx head?
>>92603097>Craftworld gets attacked>Baking instructor immediately pulls a Fusion Gun out from under her oven and sprints off towards the sound combat while everyone else puts on their Guardian armor>After the fighting is over she comes back and makes biscuits for everyone who survived, apron covered in blood
>>92603116Did you know that a 6x4 mat can be used for smaller battlefield sizes as well?
>>92603087Me but with contrast over metallics
>Fire Warrior wants to take a break from being commander to be a museum security guard instead>realises it doesnt serve the greater good to abandon his important position for something selfish and stays commander
>>92603115there's a whole hive fleet that's evolved to be a counter to chaos
So my black primer (citadel) finally ran out and I need a new one. I'm very open for alternatives. What do you guys use and/or recommend?
>>92603115Iron Warriors fortress got nommed in days, the retards tried using land vehicles to transport ammo. Night Lords got btfo by genestealer cultists. Death Guard got melted aboard their own ship by toxicrenes.
>>92603097Autarch is already lost on path of command, so his path of baker will only be a hobby.
>>92603115There's Kronos, but I was never super interested in Tyranids so I can't tell you much more than that. Think they bum some food off other fleets or something
>>92603138Hilarious how Tau melta weapons being used as lightsabers has become an actually thing, after that one piece of artwork from that artist who didn't do any research.
>>92603145vallejo black rattlecan primer is the best overpriced miniature primer
>>92603097If autarchs are elected from the exarchs then it's not really possible for them to get lost on one of the civilian paths.
Old pic, by now done with paneling on the main body and covers for the roller supports, still have some detail work to do on the cannon, but I called in sick and have been doing rivets most of the day.What are you working on?
>>92603126Prince Daemon?
>>92603126Daemon prince, I guess. Or making up some weird tau auxiliary species
>>92603087My first year miniature paint jobs are trash and they will be stripped eventually. They don’t even compare to something I’ve painted recently. Sucking at something is the first step at learning how to become better. Practice, practice, practice.
>>92603156Sometimes people who don't know shit make the best concept artists or ideas guys. Reason why alot of them existed in the 90s and previous decades. You can work in the details later unless it severely conflicts with earlier info.
>>92603156When was that? The fluff introduced this guy 10 years ago or so
>>92603126replace the catfish head with a cat head
>>92603087It takes you years to be good at painting. The fact you are already using enamel and oils puts you well above most people already. Seriously my first year of painting I didn't even know what a WASH was.
>>92603201Somewhere during 7th edition I think? It's been quite a while.
>>92603211It's a newt. Kroot on noot.
>>92603087no worries im the same, I can't edge highlight for shit so I use enamels and oils as a crutch and it's great
What toys did you buy today?
I wish Knights were better allies
>>92603074Femmarines are coming
>>92603170repainted Shuugash's face as I wasn't happy with it before. Still not 100% happy but faces are fucking hard.
>>92603170very nice kill bursta/krusha/blasta etc etc etchow did you do the rivets or are they cut from a round plastic bar
>>92603097Need a baking phoenix lord
>>92603254I'm waiting on my Orks battle force *wink* . I bought it and a fighting comer jet because the new CP is the wild orks and I me do only prefer the classic ork. And looking at the last christmas battle forced box it was only wild ork too an i like old ork, that is why am i buy Ork battle box with robotic ork giant in it. and a plane too
>>92603254>ask friend what he's getting for his army next>says he has to clear it with the wife first
>>92603281Most of it is plasticard rod that I cut by hand, yes.
>>92603264>that greenstuff
>>92603264ye-Ikes
>>92603251don't worry anon, we all know edge highlighting is a meme and a crutch for shitty painters>>92603087>>92603214Enamels and oils are a way to easily get towards a better paintjob. The missing half of the equation is knowing what looks good and why and material aimed at painters instead of mini painters is much better for that if you actually want to gitgud.
>>92603277It's a bit messy indeed. I'd suggest picking out at least the eyes some more so it's more clearly identifiable as a face.
>>92603170Finished my terminator lord, based on my old terminator pack leader
If mixing light green with purple makes Dark Angels green, what would happen if I paint light green and then wash with purple?
>>92603254I got my friend to print me a few things, nothing much.
>>92603279You can always run your nurgle units in a 'AS IS" chaos space marine armySo if you end up not liking the nurgle playstyle (which is firing 3 mortar tanks while you close on them) you can always pivot to CSM. Plus you can kitbash some Nurgle bikers
>playing pathfinders in killteam chalnath got me excited to see what tau would get in 10th>it's finally time for their codex>kroot boxfug
>>92603314Awwww look how small Jr. is!
>>92603314is that one of those terminator sculpts everyone and their gnrandma used to do to make them bigger or are terminators really that fucking big these daysits almost twice the size of a normal pewter one
>>92603251>>92603307Edge highlighting isn't a crutch but has very specific use cases and needs to be used when appropriate. Same as an air brush. But also 9/10 a dry brush looks better than edge highlight as it comes feathered.
>>92603129>Anon, before this thread archives among all the shit, I forgot to say thank you for the tip though.>In video games I tend to prefer speedsters which is pretty much the opposite of the death guard, I don't know if liking that playstyle in video games often translates to preferring that playstyle in tabletop?Their vehicles are 10" move, you can play fast with death guard.
>>92603264But is anyone going to buy them or will they be relegated to the plastic SoB stack in the back of the shop? Or will this be a case of adding/replacing models in current boxes?
>>92603332>that matriarch are you sure you wouldn't want her to have a slightly less monkey-like face?or a neck?
>>92603087My first models were Lord Lysander tier. Today they're passable. I've come to accept that I will never have the patience to truly git gud but a certain level of talent can be brute forced through years of practice.
>>92603396All sorts of factors Anon. Do the women look like they got hit by the ugly tree? Are the units shit on gameplay? Are the models very expensive per point? And this is completely ignoring the lore travesty.
>>92603153Not all autarchs are lost on the path of command, though they can be. It's just like any other path.>>92603160In old lore, but current lore is that autarchs are those who walked mutiple warrior paths without getting lost and becoming an exarh
>>92603112I wish snaggas where just the squig rider units and not a pushed redundant mini faction.nu-boyz still suck and you should paint your gitz orange bc noone ever does (or brown and white for snakebites)
>femstodes drops>all the usual suspects start jamming female heads onto male custodes bodies
>>92603289Depending on how tight that shared budget is, fair. If he ain't working, then he should get a job to afford his toys. Although I cannot imagine asking my wife for permission to print off a batch of Pokemon minis to paint with the kids. JJK I'm dying alone.
>>92603441the faces will look hideous, like ugly men in wigs. this will be exactly what the target market wants, because it will look just like them.
>>92603472every single time its a "male feminist" or a tranny. every. single. time. actual women enjoy nids/nurgle/orkz+goblins
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeap I'm enjoying being a Deldar chad.
>>92603488Wtf I'm a straight white male and enjoy all those armies
>>92603505weird, you must be gay
>>92603513not saying you can't, I play DG myself, but its what women naturally skew towards.
1 of 2. A SM kitbash chain gun im making for my terminators.
>>92603541
>>92603541Compensating for something?
>>92603535Just got some excellent models, can soup my dudes in with the other best faction in the game and I make most Imperium faggots seethe no matter what detachment I pick. Feels great to be me.
>>92603541Compensating????
>>92603539Can confirm. My wife wants nurgling and thinks termagants are "cute". She doesn't like Orks though.
>>92603559whatever do you mean
>>92603112The big squig rider is one of my favourite sculpts they have.
>>92603314Let’s get ‘em Dad!
>>92603429No the contrast of coomer and horribleness is the point.also why does everyone talk about the neck the head is just long, eye level is a normal distance off the shoulders.
And a CSM reaper autocannon I made today.
Should I get a box of the new scouts or a box of the new terminators for my blood angel army?
>>92603488My ex really liked space wolves
>>92603314It’s like a superhero and a Make-A-Wish kid who’s dressed like him lol
>>92603577Powerfully penile.
>>92603574Yeah, I compensate for my enormous cock with very small soldiers. My unit is just too big for small unit tactics.
>>92603606>this arm>CSM???
>>92603703???
>>92603606>that arm>csmKWAB
Frankly I'm to pure and virginial to understand any of these.
>>92603170Caved due to dread moband started work on 3d printing this guy. Thankfully the file was free
>>92603608Scouts, brah.
>>92603608terminators are cooler than football players
>>92603757Neat.
>>92603188Lol I took all my first year shit to my LgS for their yearly garage sale. Sold all but a single hideous squad of tac marines. Now I have 125$ in store credit to get new shit I’ll actually paint half decently. My old minis can rest in piss. The future is all that matters.
>>92603170I like it, but the tracks look horrible.
>>92603769Blonde with red armour scouts are the best looking scouts though, even the old goofy ones.
>>92603700Don't let patterns of mainstream stop you from doing your own thing in your own way. From reaction images to whole damn lifestyle.
>>92603608If you're in the market for some Scouts, I recommend the Scout Kill Team. It has fun extra bits so you can give each of them a little personality.
>still giving loosh to jwkeep getting disappointed, keep getting your armies squatted, keep drinking koolaid.
Is this the first time Gork and Mork have been drawn?
>>92603790I choose to disagree.
>>92603802I like buying official GW kits because it supports the company I like
>>92603087Painting techniques are ultimately all about time invested vs pay off. For years I never did anything more than base, drybrush, wash, drybrush on most prominent areas.I think it took me 3? armies over 2 years before I decided to even try to get decent at edge highlighting, multiple highlights to generate different effects and blending.To this day I still utilise drybrushing and singular edge highlights on armies because playing the game with a decent painted army is more fun for me for the time invested than if I were to spend a ton of time on each mini
>>92603798I do like how all the weapon options are present in the box. Love that heavy bolter. Decent price in canada too.
>>92603792They're not stopping me in anyway, but it doesn't make it any less fucking awful how many shitty wojack derivatives there are.Even those garbage ass rage faces on reddit had variety.
>>92603803No, at least their faces are in stuff.
>>92603112>from guns that teleport live subjects into other bodies, to tractor cannons that hurl war machines kilometres into the sky>tractor cannons that hurl war machines kilometres into the sky>Str 10 D2
>>92603802I 3D print these days and haven't given them any money since 2017
>>92603807If primaris have weakened geneseed traits and they weren't originally taken from their recruiting planets wouldn't primaris salamanders be mostly white?
>>92603807Double dog disagree.
>>92603802sis you meant to post this the AOS general I think, but that's okay mistakes happen!
>>92603757Awesome. Can you share the link plz to the file
>>92603757thats cool, but he needs a bunch of grots hanging off him.
>>92603792What's the sauce on this anime nun?
>>92603832That was when they were fresh. Over time they change the same as any other marine.
>>92603841He has no business looking that cool
>>92603832Depends on how things were changed. The salamander’s skin thing isn’t necessarily a flaw, it’s just their melanochrome overreacting. It may just take longer to kick in for primaris.
>>92603856Mengel finds a way.
>>92603810Fag.
>>92603850466163 (not available in English as far as I know)
>>92603810>company I likekek>>92603844>siswhy so transphobic, bigot?
>>92603848The printer has a file for that :)>>92603846You can find it in like 5 minutes with google. I'm obligated to say Find it yourself, James.
>>92603807They’re a close second. If I ever start another marine army it would be salamanders.
>>92603841Goliath arms look dope on marines. Makes me wanna finish brother Fleximus.
>>92603846How much does GW pay you to scour the internet for "copyright infringements". I bet it's still not enough to buy a house...
>>92603875ah ok, as payment I was gonna gofile you one of those now banned 50 dollar nid stl files.
>Many Orks learn to embrace a particular style of warfare and tool up with rickety approximations of more advanced weapons, be they Tankbustas equipped with rokkit launchersYOU LIE GW
>>92603869Thank you anon
>>92603846>poojeet intern trying to be James’s best henchmanlel
>>92603907That's cool I don't play nids
After the custodes debacle are there any 40k youtubers worth watching? Never been a huge fan of them but I'm not watching valrak or luetin again. Used to like eons of battle but I'm gonna stop watching him too. Not a big fan of Arch or Gamza but they are the only ones I know who are not sucking GWs cock.
>>92603907What about if you upload the banned 50 dollar nid stl file and then i give you the gorkanaut stl as payment?
>>92603937auspextactics
>>92603937go back
>>92603943Na I already found it on Cults3d. But I'll throw up a file anyways. Give me 5 mins.
>>92603958I wish we could anon.. I really wish we could.
The new chaos lord looks like a leftover from age of sigmar
>>92603956lol>>92603937None of the "lore" or "opinion" ones have ever been worth watching and I have no idea why you're pretending otherwise. The "rules" ones from people who don't attend tournaments are arguably worse
>>92603803
>>92603937The only "40k youtubers" worth watching are batreps and painting guides. Why the fuck would you ever watch any of your mentioned retards.
>>92603980Mork is dropping the elbow.
>>9260393740k mr bones
>>92603991No he's the other guy ya git. Gork is the one you're referring to.
>>92603937Mr. bones 40k
i want off mr bones wild ride
>>92603937Mr. BonesHes the tex talks of 40k
>>92604010how about you slide up onto my cock and ill give you real boney ride
>>92603937Arch is a faggot who's so far up his own ass, he's insufferable to watch. Gamza is cool, but he's not really a 40k YouTuber anymore. Hasn't been for at least a few years now. Sure, he shits on GW every time they do something stupid, but he's mainly a 3D printing channel now.
>>92604020Fuck that actually kinda turned me on. Am I gay?
>>92603980Ah forgot about this
>>92604023Agree about Arch but mostlybbecause I'm racist against norwegians.
Anyway to improve the Beast Snagga Boss model? Hate how overdesigned he is but love his claw
>>92604031Yes, but that’s unrelated.
Post a goofier mini. That isn't votann.
>>92603937Auspex for boring but informative news and gameplay discussion, if you can get past the droll British newscaster voice. He even makes it very easy to get to the parts you care about in his vids. Otherwise arch is still my go-to for lore stuff. And most of the art related channels are neutral if click baity.
>>92603986>The only "40k youtubers" worth watching are batreps and painting guides>painting guidesSTOP PLAYING WARHAMMER YOU BIGOT
>>92604052
>>92604061OK no marines either.
>>92604060Everyone's been shitting on him lately. I'll admit I've been out of the loop on 40k YouTuber drama for a while though. What did he do to make everyone hate him?
Reminder that you're supposed to kitbash your exarchs from different aspect warrior kits to represent all the different warrior aspects they've cycled through. And if your opponent tells you that for some nonsensical reason your dire avenger exarch can't have howling banshee exarch powers, you are perfectly within your right to call him out for being a waacfag, a lorelet, and a lying scumbag who has no appreciation for the true spirit of the game.
>>92603485>the faces will look hideous, like ugly men in wigsSo like 99% of GW women already anyway, which doesn't scare away any buyers.
>>92604052pretty much all the new tyranids make me laugh but in that sad kind of way
Where Dataslate
>>92604052>>92604061>>92604065Do wolves count as marines
>>92604076In my ass. And it can only be retrieved by your dick.
>>92604068phd chemist cant read game rules, acts like a %happiness cuck about always loosing
>>92604081Seems kinda gay, bro.
>>92603956More like autism tactics.Uey uey.
>>92603264I know you are trying to rile up people, but thats actually a really sick kitbash and pose. Makes me think of Joan of Ark. But yeh like the other anon said you need to finish the knee joint green stuff, I can see you did work on the nose so I know you are not incompetent. Your knee joint doest line up very well, probably best to cut it off, add a tiny bit more tactical rock then go at it again.
Remember when one of the former lives of the Emperor was Adolf Hitler?
>>92604068Did some monumentally retarded video about how 10e is too hard, evidenced by a "game" where he proved himself genuinely incompetent at a basic level
>>92603937Why the actual fuck would you watch 40k youtubers for anything besides painting guides, rules previews, or rumours/leaks?
>>92603943gofile.io/d/JjG3uOhere bruh
Most shit tier clickbaity paint channels?Good paint channels?
>>92604100The attack on Istvaan V was bloody order.
>>9260410110th Edition? Too hard? Sounds like the "baby's first wargame" that is One Page Rules would be more his speed.
>>92604100not really, no, unless you're just referencing some meme or hearsay
>>92604119Duncan Midwinter
>>92603798He's 14 years old, his favorite food is carbonated soft drinks and cheeseburgers without pickles, in his free time he likes to play popular MMO shooters and call people gay. He is the best of humanity.
>>92604127Diuncan is clickbaitny???
>>92604088I can put on a wig and dress if that helps...
>>92604127>Cheat winter minis
>>92603116Based men still use a 6x4Weak wristed fags downsized
>>92604060Said 10th edition wass too hard to play lmao
>>92604119Cult of Paint is the new standard
>>92604142>deadbeat minis
>>92604127>midwinterNo thanks
Since we're talking youtube painters I like this guy's method:/watch?v=lu8Z9nEBPzINo tricks, just regular paint, regular brushes. Works surprisingly easily.
>>92604070>exarch powers>in 10thLmao
>>92604101its not this one is it?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XogVrWgOZ2o&ab_channel=GoobertownHobbiesJust from the comments alone I cant believe this many people think 10th is at all difficult to grasp.There are some people acting like 3 years isnt enough time to learn army rules or basic game rules (you will learn these in the first two games you play unless you are a fucking retard)
>>92604122Nothing would be his speed, he put dark eldar infantry in the open and got upset they died
>>92604109wow you actually did it, thanks anon
>>92604154Im surprised how little chatter theres been, in jan there were posts constantly about it. Maybe the recent topics have taken all the steam
>>92604162Yeah, looks like it. I imagine they're just people who aren't looking for 40k to be what it is. They probably want a monopoly-tier game with miniatures
>>92604100>Look mom! I posted it again!
>>92604176People just gave up expecting anything
>>92604075Almost all of the new Tyranids are really good though. One of the few good releases GW has done in awhile.
>>92604068He made a self-admittedly whiny video indulging in his own bad experiences learning to play 40k over the last several years and decided he's just too casual to learn the game and therefore 40k is not friendly to casual gamers. His argument is that the rules are more complicated than fun and change faster than he can learn them. The idea isn't wrong, but his argument kind of falls apart when he explains he refuses to use cover because it doesn't make his army look aesthetic on the table too and then complains he got wiped out instantly running nothing but 60 foot-slogging Kabalites Warriors and a few Archons with no transports.
>>92604189And again next thread, asshole.
>>92604176Honestly besides a handful of indexs (and necrons) the games been in a relatively healthy state so Im hoping GW doesnt fuck it up (granted the custodes codex already fucked them so lmao)
>>92604060This guy genuinely looks like he molests children
>>92604182Then GW has them covered!
I need traitor guardsmen squad color scheme ideasThey will not be painted in the same colors as the rest of my army
>>92604176It's just point adjustments. Which, admittedly, could help some armies and bring Necrons back in check. But the ones that really have people upset are just fundamentally bad rules that no point change will ever make fun, even if it is good.
>>92604193>he explains he refuses to use cover because it doesn't make his army look aesthetic on the table too and then complains he got wiped out instantly running nothing but 60 foot-slogging Kabalites Warriors and a few Archons with no transports.Based (and I genuinely mean that) retard.
>>92604176Worst sign of them all t.b.h. People constantly crying about how the game is dying isn't a sign of anything, except maybe a healthy large community.But zero discussions, just apathy, even shortly before a big patch drops? Now that's a real sign of a game that's losing customers.
>>92604100Remember when a space elf was hired to kill MLK Jr?Remember when the Imperial Fists were completely murdered and don't exist anymore?Remember when Emperor's right hand man made a half-eldar femboy torture slave to vent his stress on because HH figured it hadn't ripped Dune off enough yet?I 'member
>>92604212It is not enough to have a product that caters to them, all products must
>>92603937I love watching Play on Tabletop's videos>40k in 40 minutes>Kill Team in 30 minutesWhile the players can be spergs, it makes me more nostalgic than anything. The production value is good too
>>92604224Black Library isnt canon
>>92604205It won't matter, your parents will never be proud of you.
>>92604176>>92604223Well, as a CSM player who's just sitting on his ass until his codex drops, I think I'm justified in my apathy.
>>92604232Does 40k even have a canon? Other than Hitler being the Emperor of course.
>>92604142>>92604149The fuck do you care where a guy wets his dick for? Y'all a bunch of gossipy magpies
>>92604237Yeah, it's canon that custodes were always female.
>>92604218Every time I see it that crest and dogshit unhelmeted option make me wonder about GWs feedback/QA (or lack of) he looks so fucking off. Also stop giving one offs to armies with literally no fucking sheets
>>92604101>>92604162>10eThey play 9e in the video. He doesn't give 10e a chance because he's sick of having to relearn the rules every 3 years, which is funny because 10e's shrimplification dialed it back on a lot of what he complains about. I think he's dead on with how much of the game is spent interacting with the rulebook to constantly figure out which dice to reroll though, and how it's next to impossible for someone who only plays a handful of games to keep up with what the fuck is going on with their opponent's dice rolls.
>>92604245Why would Hitler do that?
>>92604237The rulebooks and codexes from 3rd edition.
>>92604236I'm not even holding out for when the GK drops anymore, it's not gonna change anything judging by every codex that has dropped so far.
>>92604245can I make them look pregnant

>>92604052Remember when everyone made fun of the dreadknight and centurion? I still can't believe GW actually got away with this shit
>>92604253Did you mean: mid 2nd edition?
>>92604231I like the production value they put into their videos (like actually showing weapons shooting during the shooting phase), but some of the people they bring on are just too much to listen to for 40 minutes.
>>92604100>>92604224Remember when Alexander the Great destroyed Islam and created a homophobia free galactic empire?
>>92604251>I think he's dead on with how much of the game is spent interacting with the rulebook to constantly figure out which dice to reroll thoughThis isn't an issue if you actually learn you rules, obviously you refer to it when you're learning, then you actually.. you know. Learn.>it's next to impossible for someone who only plays a handful of games to keep upIts a change or two every 3 months, and if someone is playing that irregularly I'd put money on them never learning anything in the first place. I know the exact type
>>92603170Land raider.
>>92604265I love the rules of 2nd edition but 3rd was peak lore.
RIP BadrukkYou will be missed..like the people you aimed at
>>92603170thats fucking great anon I've finished most of my demon prince today, just got to do his wings/ backpack and then he's done
>>92604283Is his second book out yet? I mean available for download somewhere.
>>92604218best votann model to date desu, even have similar crests
>>92604255I've got a tracheostomy tube pumping industrial-grade hopium into my body 24/7 for Vashtorr finally getting a worthwhile datasheet in the CSM codex
Do you guys think 40k would just be better if they removed moral like they just did in AoS?
>>92603170My condolences making this masterpiece only for it to get sent to legends.
>>92604319I have always hated morale systems in Warhammer games. It almost never has an effect, and when it does, all of the armies that should be weak to it have ways to bypass it entirely.
I wish to make pregnant custodes fight pregnant Eldar
>>92604319Yeah and the wound roll. Actually just shoot me
>>92604334get started on those models then.
>>92604278>This isn't an issue if you actually learn you rulesThat's fair. That guy was definitely retarded and spent all his time painting instead of reading his rules. Didn't even know he could reroll 1s until his 2nd game.>Its a change or two every 3 months, and if someone is playing that irregularly I'd put money on them never learning anything in the first placeI was talking about dealing with the other 25 or so armies in the game that you'll be playing against, not your own army. With every random unit getting their own special little rules, you either have to stop the game and say "show me where your rulebook says you can do that" every time your opponent rerolls, lands mortal wounds, etc, or say fuck it and take them at their word which in this community is asking for trouble
>>92604319No. As much as I shit on OPR for being basic as fuck, I think they actually do morale well and 40k should do it like they do. Basically, if a unit fails a morale check, they become "fatigued" which means they will now only hit on 6+ regardless of their stats and they auto fail any other morale checks until their next turn. And if they have to take a morale check again the unit is removed from the table to simulate them fleeing in terror from the battlefield.
Magnet link me this pls bros.
>>92604350>I was talking about dealing with the other 25 or so armies in the game that you'll be playing against, not your own army.Do you really need to learn this off by heart?> or say fuck it and take them at their wordYeah? Thats kinda the norm, unless something sounds absolutely wild. This game kinda breaks down entirely if you don't trust your opponent at all
>>92603923no problem
>>92604176The state of the game is relatively balanced compared to launch and the first dataslate, any all signs just point to bad news for this coming one. But you're right had no one shut up about the January one.
>>92604352Does OPR have alternating activations?
>>92604384Yes.
>>92604340gods I want to make them pregnant, pregnant bikers, spear guns, tanks. I do not like nurgle.
>past midnight>successfully sculpted eyes onto an otherwise blind nid head, nice n symmetrical>just enough greenstuff to finish the job, no leftovers>did an autistic victory disco dance out of satisfaction since noone can see>going to treat myself to a nice homegrown herbal tea and go to bedOyasumi, buds, and thanks for reading my blog post.
>>92604401hell yeah anon good going Post pictures of said nid
>>92604384Well shit why aren't we playing that?
>>92604401You're silly, you don't use greenstuff for that, you carve the eyesocket with a cutter and then cut a little hemisphere from some part of a spare sprue that has a rounded end
>>92604428Because aside from a few good mechanics, the game overall isn't very fun.
>>92604095Joan was a 5'2 petite girl she wouldn't be some bara with a vaguely feminine face
>lose every fucking game I play. Im starting to lose some of my self worth. This sucks.
>>92604461Stop playing Tau.
>>92604475Im playing Tyranids and Guard
>>92604461What army and detachment (if codex), what ruleset (leviathan matched play?), what opponents. Post list.
>>92604426I will once I finish & paint the full thing>>92604451Pretty smart! Thanks, I will add that to the list of tricks of the trade. But I've also found that if you take a little sphere of greenstuff and then cut it in half it gaind a very nice almond-like shape, felt useful for toxin sacs and I wanted to try an eye like that
>>92604485Clearly it's the dice that's at fault and you should destroy one or two to send a message
>>92604364Which unfortunately seems normal. I want to play more but I can only do it once a week and according to the some of the nicer guys at my store, many other players are WAAC to a fault and do shit like hide rolls are try to do things very quickly due to me being new. And it's not like I haven't been in competitive play before in MTG and Vidya, or playing more casual TT games and be worried about every single rule, but I haven't encountered a such a gaming environment of autistic faggots who play like each game is a tournament level one. At this point I just paint at the store and banter with some of the regulars. It's almost as bad as when people get salty over poker and blackjack.Tl;Dr: I experienced more cheating, WAAC faggots in this particular hobby than any other. Maybe it's the cost?
>>92604451Why would spare sprue ever have a rounded end? Wouldn't it be easier to just roll greenstuff into a ball?
>>92604193TBF coverhugging looks nasty in recent warhammer. Refusing to play on aesthetic grounds alone would be reasonable to me.
>>92604193half his league friends were clearly WAACfag aeldari players, too.
What do we think of these Custode leaks?
>>92604541Between that and the tyranid swarm anon last thread getting rekt by custodes, escalation leagues sound like the 40k equivalent of pubstomping
>>92604245Kek fag
>>92604549>nerf custodes>reduce points cost so you can bring more models to make up for the nerfsAll to sell more models. As usual.
>>92604549fake and gay
>>92604505Dunno, mine used to when I carved the cheeks of a hive tyrant to give him extra set of eyes (the third pair was right behind the normal eyes, on the temple), came out surprisingly seamlessno, I don't have pictures, lost him
>>92604095I'm trying to get people to go against this bullshit. The conversion is shit
Orks legends got updated, the below are now legends: Big Mek KFF Big Trakk Zagstruck Grot Mega-tank Grot Tanks Badrukk Kill Tank Grotsnik Mega/Meka Dread Mekboy Workshop Nob with Banner Nobz on bikes Squiggoth (not Gargantuan) Warboss on Warbike
>>92604503If people are cheating you thats not a ruleset problem, GW can't write a codex to mitigate that. There's a plethora of ways to just outright scam your opponent, if you don't trust them don't play
>>92604592Nothing of value was lost
>>92604574Well you failed. I agree with the other anon that it looks awesome and now I'm actually kinda excited about the idea of Femmarines. You just proved that their models can look awesome.
>>92603254Shit meme, but I've been purchasing or downloading free stl files and it's sad to think that I can now make pretty much any army I want for the cost of like 3 or 4 kits, and the models arguably look better than James' too
@92604549I think the ragebait is shit, kys
>>92604541>Everyone playing viable lists is waacfag nowThat word lost meaning the moment it was spammed by shills here
>>92604608>it looks awesomeBeauty is subjective I suppose
>>92604615I dont care about fem custodes but fuck me thats a piss poor conversion and paintjob
>>92604612>viable listsDefinitely waacfag.
>>92604598>GW can't write a codex to mitigate thatThey could try writing rules that are easy to bullet point onto a single quick reference index card to lend to your opponent. 10e feels like it had to make up for the subfaction shrimplification by offloading all those special abilities onto each unit's datasheets.
>>92604612If you based your army list on the idea that you want to win games, then you are a WAACfag, simple as. The only people that aren't WAACfags are people that built their army based on what they thought would be cool from a purely narrative standpoint. People that actually write lore for their army.And since the majority of players don't do stuff like that, the majority of you are just WAACfags.
>>92604615
>>92604615those are some huge kitties
>>92604549The sheets people weren't gonna play still didnt get meaningful changes/buffs. Chars should have dropped more for how bad they got kneecapped. Wardens going up Im all for
>>92604650They can write rules in a more condensed manner, and then you have all the edge cases unaccounted for and cheaters make use of that. Unless you meant your entire army's worth of rules, in which case you're just asking for 40k to be shot in the back of the head and become what I said before - monopoly with miniatures.
>>92604657>If you based your army list on the idea that you want to win gamesThat's more "win at SOME costs" than all costs. I'll admit to being a WASCfag. It's fluffy for my army to send in the appropriate troops to try and win the battle.
>>92604070This kind of shit is why Eldar lore is so fuckin cool, especially the Exarchs. Psychic gestalt warriors. I like how Eldar and Orks have the same sort of gestalt system but inverse.
Reminder that a lot of the praise of the Ork codex and hype for it is because its busted as fuck and people deep down like powercreep
>>92604677I articulated my point poorly. What I meant to say is if gameplay and rules are the only thing someone considers when building an army list, then they are a WAACfag.
What time during the day in gay ass Britain do they drop the dataslate usually?
>>92604503Competitive tournies in 40k are full of the chillest dudes in the hobby, all with fully painted and often gorgeous armies. Almost universally excellent sportsmen. It's just your local experience, sadly. I think there can be a gap between the tourny level and the local-store-tryhards level in some places. But wanted to play the rules correctly is perfectly fine, do you expect MTG players to not play by the rules?
>>92604690counter reminder: reason why orks got buffed is because it's one of the most popular armies
>>92604549thats how you sell models for the historically 'low model count' faction
>>92604608Either you're a tranny or a coomer
>>92604710Not a mutually exclusive claim
>>92604660Reminder that felinids are canon abhumans. In the grim darkness of the far future, there are catgirls.
>>92604592>SquiggothHow dare these pig fuckers
>>92604672I think you're starting to get into disengenuous "you can't stop cheaters from cheating so why bother" territory. You can't fully stop cheaters from cheating, sure. But consigning their potential cheating to "edge cases" instead of "literally any time they roll dice against an opponent who doesn't know the ins and outs of the army they're going up against" is a step in the right direction.
>>92604633Well that's your problem and now it bleeds over to everyone else. Saying "I don't care" is such a lazy thing. Ten years from now when this hobby is left in ruins like everything else the DEI mod touches, don't say you don't know what happened
>>92603606Based iron warriors player
>>92604723>Reminder that felinids are canon abhumanssource?
>>92604730>disengenuous "you can't stop cheaters from cheating so why bother" territory.Not disingenuous. You can't stop them. The game fundamentally does not function if one party is cheating, and I can cheat so incredibly easily.> is a step in the right direction.Its a step in the direction of shooting you in the back of the head because you have a tummyache.
Why are obliterators so fucking ugly? It's not even cool kind of creepy, its just fucking ugly.
>>92603785Thanks. In what aspect - the overall design, or how they're going together? I got them from blood and skulls miniatures, and unfortunately they're now defunct and so I had to do blustuff molds to duplicate them, which led to some pretty dodgy fitting. But, well, Orks.>>92604329Honestly the writing was already on the wall when I started the project, but I hardly care. You might notice it already is an illegal loadout for a Killtank as those haven't got the option for more than one twin big shoota. This was, more than anything, a passion project inspired by the sort of folks who drove my interest in Orks when I started them. Those old grogs on Da-Waaagh! who just built zany shit off the cuff because it looked cool and not because there were rules for what they built.
>>92604231I enjoy most of Playon's content even if its normie tier mostly.
>>92603115Ka'bandha showed up to save the Blood Angels at Baal. Left a mountain of Tyranid skulls
>>92604723Anyone attracted to this needs medical attention
>>92604743so make your own
>>92604741>I can cheat so incredibly easilySo it needs to be made harder.
>>92604709>do you expect MTG players to not play by the rulesNo, I expect them to rule lawyer the shit out of it and make decks that only work because of absurd rule lawyering specifically in commander and then they ask not to be targeted in a 4 way game because they're not actively going after anyone and just want to make the game more fun
>>92604743It's chaos player representation
>>92604677>send in appropriate troopsBut the rules don't match the lore. It's never fluffy to pick only high points return units because that's meta. A space marine commander isn't going to be like "We're up against orks in vehicles? Send in nothing but squads of inceptors with plasma guns".
>The Raptors Honour Guard equivalent is just a small batch of 20-30 insane motherfuckers who are Solid Snake/Big Boss on steroids
>>92604730>Finally we can have a fair game with our ruleset that is so simplistic you can memorize everything about 25 armies!>Oh its shit to play>Oh the waacfag is still using loaded dice, marking his cards, moving 6.5" rather than 6", picking his dice up fast, nudging shit when you don't look...
>>92604776>A space marine commander isn't going to be like "We're up against orks in vehicles? Send in nothing but squads of inceptors with plasma guns".Why not?
>>92604769At the expense of making the game not worth playing, fuck no.
>>926047386th ed core rulebook, page 405. Just listing abhumans sanctioned by the Imperium.Xenology (dubious canon) has a Kroot mercenary (unreliable at best) describe them as looking just like a normal human other than their ears and forearm-length claws.
>>92604775We don't have foot fungus.
>>92604796>if every unit doesn't have random bullshit like 0cp stratagems or reroll hit and wound rolls then the game's not worth playing
>>92604748>he thinks being attracted to a catgirl is weirdWhere the fuck do you think you are?
>>92604809If you're getting confused by simple mechanics like rerolls you're beyond saving lad
>>92604800So that's why there's a bunch of catgirl guard for sale on etsy.
>>92604741Clear rules aren't about stopping cheating. They are about reducing subjective interpretation of the rules, which is a much bigger problem than cheating because two honest players can read a vague rule differently and won't agree on how to play the game. You can get away with vague simple rules in some games but it's just not going to fly in 40k. That's not to say GW's rules writing couldn't improve.
>>92604819It's not about a failure to understand, but a failure to trust. If I've got to either give my opponent complete trust every time they say "this guy can reroll hits and wounds" and "this guy has exploding 6's because it's turn 8 and he's shooting at the same unit as last turn", or demand to see his rulebook every time, then the rules are shit.
>>92604060Based GoobertownHobbies
>>92604845>but a failure to trust.Which is your issue, not the ruleset. If you think someone would brazenly lie about a rule like reroll hits/wounds, why wouldn't they lie about its basic statline? Shall we remove that too? and again - they can still just cheat normally using any number of ways. Castrating the game to a level where apparently you can distrust your opponent but also play a game with them is an insane and impossible goal
>>92604060Didn't his video about that press release condemn them for telling their players to fuck off.
>>92604800Oops, not Xenology (of controversial canon because it came out in 2006), but Liber Xenelogis from 2021.Written from the point of view of a Rogue Trader, here he even questions the validity of the description from his kroot merc. And I guess I was wrong about the ears. No mention of those here, either.
>>92604786They don't do that.

>>92604903He's jumping the gun. Should wait at least until page 8 or we hit image limit.
>>92604070What happens when too many are created? Like craftworld is invaded and after they win suddenly they got 27 extra exarch? Battle to the death? Mass shrine building? Shipped to other craftworlds? Suicide missions?
>>92604872>If you think someone would brazenly lie about a rule like reroll hits/wounds, why wouldn't they lie about its basic statline?Yeah you're right I'm retarded.
>>92604657>"Like just, turn your brain off!"Fatherless behavior.
>>92604890Jannies, ban this bitch ass nigga
>>92604772It isn't rules lawyering in MTG you absolute soft-cunt. There is just the rules.
>>92604795Baby got back
>>92604743Why didn't they just make them look cool
>>92604127>midwit minisPass
GW... why not just make plastic grot tanks? I would play Orks if you did...
>>92605165Same reason they don't make plastic Ork tanks or Squiggoths. They're retarded.
>>92603264Kys retard tranny
>>92604592>Mega/Meka DreadAnd just like that, the little bit of enthusiasm the dred detachment had given me for 10th is draining again.
>>92605165GW's mishandling of Gretchin in general is fucking baffling considering how popular Gloomspite Gitz are in AoS
>>92605283FW gay anyway
>>92605331Nah fuck Gretchin. Worst part of Orks. They can stay in fantasy and sigmar. We've already had to suffer Makari being turned into the other half of Ghazghkull.

>>92604592>make dred mob work with all grot vehicles and not just kanz>but then legends all non-kanz grot vehicles so it doesn't matterwhat did they mean by this?
>>92603211That looks way more like this big ass salamanders you see in some places.

>>92608664That would get a good laugh out of some people I know
question about 8th edition:If I have Kastellan robots and set them on conqueror protocolls they can fight twice a turn. does that mean my opponent can us the stratagem counter offensive to fight back before my robots can punch the second time? Same thing with the fanatical congegation stratagem on E-priests, it says they can fight immediately. does that mean it cannot be intercepted?
>>92608734Who the fuck still plays 8th?But to answer your first question, yes, the Coutner-Offensive strat can be used after the Castellans fight their first time.As for the second, do you mean Zealous Congregation?Read the beginning of it. It happens at the end of the Fight Phase. "Immediately" just means the Electro Priest unit fight a second time after everyone else eligible has fought, but before your opponent can activate a similar ability on their unit.
>>92608768thank you. >Who the fuck still plays 8th?We started during the pandemic and don't play that often, is 9th or 10th edition better?
>>926087899th was basically 8.5 Improved a lot of things.Then 10th is a full reset again. Lots of bad rules and loss of flavor and fluff.Sadly, it's led to mostly balanced tournament win rates (except AdMech at ~30%) so GW sees it as a success. Today's Balance Dataslate should drop a lot of points off Ad Mech toys and make them a little more viable.
>>92603087Well anon I hope you improve. I tried painting for over 30 years now, not only did I not get better, I actualy got worse. Still paint all my dudes but I have no illusions about how the models look like.
>>92604129He is RG, so even if he was taken at 12, the full implantation and basic training would take him way over 14. Dude is like 15 at youngest. Even if Cawl would really have to purify the RG gene seed and make the whole proces be as fast as effcient as that of DA, we are still looking at 2,5 year minium to go from an aspirant to scout.
>>92604236Can't get worse then the 3ed JJ dex young anon. Through darkest of times I always liked to remind myself of that. Codex lash+oblits, codex helldrake. All bad and unfun, but at least they weren't as bad as the JJ dex.
>>92608799They cannot really drop admech points any lower, they should start buffing the datasheets
>>92604549if true. GW really does hate the FW stuff, jetbikes and the V. Dreadnought. But who knows maybe custodes with an extra unit of X will be a working army. The question is, is it going to be the way of working DA and Ad Mecha have their working lists, aka borderline unfun ? At least the army isn't super expensive (for those that don't want to run 2-3 calladius and/or Rex), unlike Ad Mecha or DA.big condolances to all the guys that bough more then 5 guards though. if someone has 30 and 17 bikers seeing something like this, following the custodes codex, has to sting. IF THE NUMBERS ARE REAL.
>>92605475steam tanks I guess?
