World Eaters, I like khorne and how simple he operates which opened up homebrewing, but now I realize I like khorne more and not World Eaters, if there was some kind of exclusive chaos cult faction I think my interest would have pivoted towards that instead of the unfun mess that is world eaters right now.

Deamonhunters. I had just read Inquisitor trilogy and it was an army that wouldn't need a huge amount of models.
Since most of the army doesn't work anymore I'm still considering if I want to expand my GK or go for something new

The 5th edition refresh for the entire army. Especially the Haemonculus Covens. It all just clicked for me aesthetically like none of the other factions had yet. I was very close to starting CSM before they came out though.
They are still my main though I have branched out into Death Guard and AdMech. I guess I just really like factions with some body horror elements.

>>93170230
The contrast between Space Marine supplement armies and CSM cult armies is interesting. The SM stuff is way friendlier for casual collection and rules consistency, but the CSM stuff is way easier for GW to balance and make the individual armies feel more distinct.
It's probably not the most fair comparison to make though because SM kits get overproduced and go out of stock way less frequently than CSM stuff does which hurts casual army building a lot too.
>>
Played my first game with the new Sisters codex last night against a buddies Custodes army. Both lists were not competitive, it was a 1750 point game and the custodes player just brought everything he owned.
Bringers of Flame detachment rocks, having assault on everything feels great and makes it way easier to get to objectives with infantry without sacrificing much. The +1 strength is also great but kinda mattered less against custodes. Valhgons squad is meaner than ever to the point I don't think I'll bring them to casual matches, they just delete whatever they look at.
Love the enhancement to give sustained hits to a squads guns and it pairs great with my Palatine, dialogues, bss squad to squeeze out even more multimelta damage.
My Repentia squad was wiped out before they could do anything but that's one me for just trying to use them aggressively without a transport.
Super happy with their rules and don't mind the points increase that came with it. Hows everyone liking sisters now?

Played Guard back in the 00s. I think I followed a series of battle reports on Lexicanum or maybe 40konline, Aileros? I learned to play by watching others, eventually I settled on the theory that 40k is a game you win before the game starts. Listbuilding was key, and back then the Guard really, REALLY rewarded good list-building.

One can only flatten so many enemies before it starts getting old, but I got one last spree in in 2014 before I put the 88th on the shelf and got into other minis. The game's changed a bit too much now, but everyone these days sucks at building lists.

Unironically the Ork psyker meme. Once I actually got into the faction and their real lore of just being green retards that love to fight and make ramshackle technology, I started to hate those memes being the most popular thing about Orks.
For that reason as well as the fact that multiple spergs have seen my Orks on the table and started chanting "I'm a tank" over and over, I now absolutely hate the Ork psyker memes, especially that adeptus ridiculous video. I just love my screaming green retards, regardless of if their tech is powered by magic

Assembling Skarbrand and just noticed his torso and legs are fully fleshed out i.e. he'd look complete with no armor.
Since I'm going for a more animalistic/natural looking Khorne army (bone swords, etc.) I'm considering leaving the armor off. Would that violate any weird tournament rules (i.e., line of sight, etc.?) It seems like it'd be pretty insignificant since it hugs his body pretty hard, but idk how strict GW is about that stuff

World Eaters because I liked Khorne Berzerkers in Dawn of War. I quickly got bored of them and switched to Iron Warriors.

>>93170409
I feel like the ability is fine, just not the fact you can attach it to multi meltas, really. Slap it on Dominions with the storm bolters and it's like 5 dev wounds which is good but not wild
>>
>>93170477
Is that a fucking mold line on his right arm
>>
>>93170496
Yeah meltas are for sure the problem. If they changed her rule to bolter and flamers only then I'd probably still use her but I doubt GW are going to add that many asterisks to her instead of just changing it to melee only.
>>
>>93170506
Probably, Khorne as a whole is lousy with mold lines, even GW couldn't be assed.
>>93170173
Khorne Daemons is my first faction because I like both AoS and 40k and figured I'd assemble enough of a list that could do either before branching off with exclusive things like Slaughterpriests and Chaos Knights. Tbh I like Seraphon a bit more for AoS and Genestealers more for 40K, but Daemons is a reasonably close second to both so I went with it for practicality

I like that the first mortal hero they released for the army was built like a hulk rather than a twink or twunk. The temptation to do the latter was probably there. But look at that guy.

>Interesting. I was wondering how far you could go with kitbashing and stuff.

>>93171005
Yes, but modifying the BS attribute is not. They could stack an effective +2 by having both a bonus to hit AND improvement to their BS.
>>
>>93171005
You ordered the artillery piece giving it BS3+, it stood still to benefit from heavy for +1 to hit so it's hitting on 2s, and it ignores the indirect penalty / rerolls 1s from a scout sentinel.

Why does everything in that picture feel like is only vaguely tolerating being in the picture with everything else thats there? Did they lift the Sisters face off someones MySpace profile circa 2005?

The scout sentinel doing what it does is unironicaly exactly how indirect should work; bad unless you have a designated spotting unit, and the interaction you can have with your opponent is killing the spotters, not trying to get to the back table edge to kill the basilisk.

If you do sub assembly do you use super glue or plastic glue when assembling the painted parts together at the end? Especially for big models.

superglue, plastic glue melts paint

Plastic glue, takes a bit longer to bond than on unpainted plastic, but it will hold.
You might need to do touch ups on paint if you spill the glue, it dissolves paint

It's one 200pt unit that means something big isn't safe behind it's 4++.

Sisters are a borderline glass cannon army which does justify some big killy power, but army wide 3+ makes them surprisingly difficult to mop up even at T3 1W. They're not quite Eldar/Dark Eldar level of fast and fragile.

The book actually being fun and exciting to actually play with is a far cry from the wailing and gnashing of teeth from every melodramatic neckbeard upset they didn't get the new shiny thing for themselves.
Sisters NEED to trade up in points because an army of T3 1W models doesn't get a second chance when you need to march them right up to their targets. You act like this is immune to counterplay and that's goddamn ridiculous.

I 100% agree anon, there is also infinite minor chaos Powers to dedciate your dudes to. I personally have really liked all the Outer god stuff in Elden Ring, and thought about how they would look in 40k. Mohg pulling bloodflame that sets you on fire from thin air (thats actually the body of the Outer god the Formless Mothers) would suit khorne.
The Scarlett Rot and all the Putrid type enemies would be a new and itneresting direction for Nurgle, the red and crimsons is just as infected looking but very different from Nurgles normal green, the rot pests are also horrific and would fit as a lesser slave race of chaos.
Hell even the Golden Order and the Greater Will would suit Tzeentch with these giant fleshy Finger like creatures controlling society, Metyr The Mother of Fingers fell from the outer space. Truly alien weird powers that is beyond mortal understadning as chaos should be.

Hmm, I wonder why Lorgar isn't leading the Black Crusades instead of Abaddon. Lorgar is the unquestionable champion of Chaos Undivided, by his connection to the warp and by virtue of being a Primarch. Lorgar should go and bonk Abaddon over the head with his big old mace and take the lead.
Be nice to see Lorgar get a bit of front-man time, plus it would set him up to face off against Guilliman nicely.

So Bellisarius Cawl now gets either his BS or WS improved by 1 every turn. But he already hits on 2+ with almost everything.
Does this mean he effectively has a BS/WS 1+ now?
I know you still always fail on a roll of 1, but does this negate the first -1 to hit rolls penalty he might get (like from Stealth for example)?

There were rumors like a year or so ago that a plastic Court of the Archon had been created. But it's unclear whether or not the leaker was just confused by the new Hand of the Archon that was announced a few months later. They were pretty accurate with the rest of their leaks/predictions though.

Dark Eldar are just getting a pity model updates with their Codex and you know it. Probably Urien Rakarth because he's still in resin and unavailable.

Blowing the dust off of my admech models and trying out a game with them tomorrow. It's probably been a year since they've seen a table.

This doesn't change anything, though? 2+ with a +1 and -1 to hit is stll a 2+, regardless of if it's a WS/BS change or modifier to hit.
All this ruling is saying is that you can't succeed on a 1, after every modifier is applied.
>>
>>93171590
No one knows yet because they just got massively changed a few days ago. But it looks like the general strategy is still spam lots and lots of battleline Skitarii and support with some fast and mobile elites and walkers. The tank was terrible until just now though so it might actually be a viable inclusion now.

Exploratory Manipule is probably the worst Detachment in the codex, I'm sorry to say. Only having a detachment when fighting on one single objective each turn is pretty limited compared to some of your other options. Hunter Cohort was previously the most popular but it took a couple small nerfs in the last update.
>>
>>93171619
They're not all applied at the same time, and they modify different things.

Weapon skill is a characteristic or target, +1 to hit modifies the roll. You can have the characteristic be +1, regardless of if the modifier to the roll is +/-1

Luckily the crab tank was my favorite model in the range. I love that fucker so i'm glad he's doing ok now.

I wish that was the case truly but in actuality it's kind of "on paper" cope, even more so than "bro just come up with your own minor xenos".
While there are indeed many small xenos races and factions running around, there is practically ZERO, NULL, NIHIL, even reinforced tropes of Minor Chaos Gods & other Warp entities. Except maybe Vashtorr. Around 3E there was more focus on that but it has gradually shifted to Traitor Primarchs and Big Four.

kek, and yeah unfortunetly you're right. I think its due to GW not making models of non Big 4 daemons, and so they don't get lore, so theyre not popular so they don't get models. Vashtorr is a great direction I hope after we get Chaos demi-gods/ aspiring gods we get minor gods. Chaos is far too structured and ordered currently. We shouldn't know who us the greatest mortal and daemon champions of the chaos gods, let alone ALL OF THEM being humans.
Its cope but I think the setting would benefit if there was more

More or less yeah unless they want to suffer the wrath of the inquisition.
Marines banning inquisitors from entering their homeworld is just fast and dandy way of getting accused of heresy and corruption.

Obviously marine chapters are still going to keep things like inquisitors at an arm's length, but they are not just going ignore or intentionally antagonize them.

“unlimited authority” only gets you so far. Inquisitors may theoretically be able to exterminatus worlds and have a greenlight to do just about anything with the presumption that they’re right, but that doesn’t make them immune to the judgment of their peers nor immune to certain subfactions of the imperium just ignoring their authority because they know they can get away with it. Politics play a big role.

There are warbands within the Word Bearers legion that dedicate themselves to a specific chaos god, but unlike say, DG and Nurgle, they still acknowledge the other gods as gods. If/when Lorgar decides he's far enough from Corax to pop his head out, the legion will in general be Chaos Undivided.

More than likely a painboy, I'm not at the house but I'm pretty sure I've some scanned short stories from old books where the painboy is fitting mechanical legs and arms and the like to their patients, sometimes without the patients permission. I'll post them up when I get home, painboys definitely have inate knowledge of orky bionics and the like, but would be useless if your battlewagons engine needed repaired.
Sure its not much different from how the Imperium does it, if you need fixed up with a bionic, you go-to a Biologis of the Ad-Mech, you wouldn't go to an Enginseer to get a new arm. they're both Ad-Mech but they have very different fields of experience.

Look into the old 2nd and 3rd Edition Codexes, Waaargh: Orks, Ere We Go, Freebooterz, Codex: Orks. They have big write-ups on the various Oddboys, their skillsets etc, and definitely a few short stories about each.
You can get a pdf of any of them on Google just with "Waaargh: Orks pdf" or whatever the title is.

Well, GW didnt really ever release a lot of Dark Eldar stuff for BFG (pic is the extent of it), so when the fans took over updating the rules and fixing problems with the game and expanding the fleets, the Dark Eldar fleets were just expanded with whatever people had already created homebrew rules for and/or using images of Dark Eldar ships for the few pieces of GW art that had them in the background.
Battlefleet Gothic PC game came around and built off of what people had done with the most recent edition of the most popular fan rules at the time, and continued it with the sequel, so now thats pretty much taken as the "official but not 100%" depictions as to what the ships should look like and what their style should be overall. Since then of course people have ripped the 3D models out of the PC games and created printable STLs from them so now thats pretty much what you'll ever see in a Dark Eldar fleet in BFG.

I do wonder why hobbies that are male dominated for obvious reasons (most women just aren't interested in wargames) are seen as an issue, but nobody even mentions instances where the reverse is true.

The librarians thing is purely the result of a maybe curse by a Xenos superpsyker around m35, they had them before that. Now they either are cursed so any prospective ones die early, or they kill them out of blind frothing zealotry. Techmarines are perfectly ok so long as they don’t forget that true loyalty is to the will of the emperor, even above the tenets of the mechanicum. I’ve always wondered if any marine chapters have quietly set up their own techmarine training and just have older Techmarines teach the new batch everything’s hey need to know and avoid the mechanicus outright most of the time.

Sally’s for example have their own forge moon they exclusively control.

Every Eldarfag, regardless of the Epdar they're a fag for, is somehow always a colossal asshat. How do you even function alongside other players?

Marine players can count rivets on every armor mark, why can't we count wraithbone studs HUH?

Not a regular bolter, a Heavy Bolter. I wanted to know what it'd look like but couldn't find any pic

Marines are an actually important faction, Elsar aren't.

How do space marine players cope with the fact knowing chaos will always look better than them?

Yeah I missed the heavy part somehow.
As presented on the models I'm gonna go with it's impossible.
Maybe in actual scale it's doable

I think black templars and that similar kind of knightly loyalists, so a number of dark angels too, look better than the standard black legion chaos flavour

because chaos marines are manlets compared to the chad primaris

They don't look better to SM players so no coping is required.

“My Man!”

Finally read all the Imperial Armor books. Other than now having something resembling a love for the setting again, I've really fallen in love with Eldar Corsairs. It's all the parts I love about these goofy space elves and then more, suits me better than Dark Eldar which is my current army. But I guess I'm just fucked unless I can convince someone to play 7e or want to settle with playing Killteam huh?

Space Pirates are so damn cool...

I’d love to see it, but I get the feeling it’s going to be a lot of Space Marine codices
>>
>>93173566
They aren’t just going to give you a PDF if you have a code. That’s too easily pirated. They give you access to updated rules through their app if you plug the code into it from your codex.

I don't see it. Armenian architecture known for a lack of pointy things, and Eldar are way too over the top 19th century Celtomania.
