>>Thread Question:
>How do you feel about the visual design and aesthetic of Necron models?
too humanoid, not alien enough, they should have either decided to make them the men of iron instead of aliens, or discarded the terminator look altogether for more canoptek-insectoid elements, or reserved the terminator look exclusively for enemies they biotransfer to create their disposable basic fodder soldiers

they're also too clean, with basically no textures, they look less like miniatures of robots and more like small bionicle toys

their 5th ed redesign didn't add enough aesthetic elements to use to decorate the models and the result is an overuse of green orbs when designing them to add something to their silhouettes or overdesigned staffs, the silent king is a good example of how utterly lost they are when they have to come up with a new big design for the faction, it's a mess

worst faction in the setting after marines
>>
>>93212041
>female space marinettes
>>
>>93212013
I disagree, if someone collects Chaos and they want to make something Chaotic to use it in their army, why shouldn't they do so?
>>
>>93212032
We do a little trolling
>>
>>93211997
They honestly kind of did. All the Space Marine chapter rules are just detachments. Its just where something like Tau get 1 detachment from Kroot as a subfaction, the Dark Angels get 3. They all share the same army rule. The only thing the codex does is give you outdated points values and datasheets on their faction specific units (enabled by the detachments) and the detachment rules themselves. Other than that its 95% lore in those books.

You may hate it, but detachments is the single best thing they did in 10th. Easy to homebrew, easy to add more when you want (like they did with Deldar), you can nerf one without hitting an entire armies effectiveness.

The problem is GW just fucking sucks ass and refuses to go far enough to rules changes in the new digital age. Last balance pass was a HUGE step in the right direction, hate them or not.
>>
I think chaos knights are superior in aesthetic to loyalist knights.

I don't dislike the detachment system. I actually think it's a fairly elegant solution to the rules bloat problems of previous editions.
But the execution has been so lazy and boring and they really ought to be cranking these out eight at a time with how easy they are to make and rebalance now.

I know thats a predator but did GW make it so that the Guard never uses stuff like rhinos and land raiders? Like if they were just used by the space marines I'd understand why the Guard wouldn't be using them but since Rhinos and Land Raiders are used by the Inquisition, Sisters of Battle, the Mechanicus, and even the fucking Arbites sometimes there must be at least a few regiments out there that have Rhinos and Land Raiders

not unaugmented certainly. not the proper hookups for brain to function as pilot. if they had those hookups, i doubt they'd be able to pilot well, or for long. the whole being a dread pilot thing is very taxing on a space marine. worse in a primaris dread, and WAY worse in a helbrute.

At present it's possible to pilot a dreadnought without the need for an MIU interface of the sort used by interred Astartes. So, sure, there's no reason why a regular person couldn't learn to drive a dreadnought chassis.

The reason would be their relative value, most regular people of Imperium are worth less than the paint on dreadnaught's toe. The only non-marines to even come into consideration would be planetary governors, inquisitors (Karamazov's throne is somewhat Dreadnaught-ish) or occasional rogue trader.

It's technically not prettying it up, it's finishing the model, since they're intended to be painted as illustrated by their existence in a painting ecosystem. For example, in the real world, we paint metal to keep it from oxidizing just as often as we do it for decoration.

Guy who started the /fourk/ project here.

I did it through creating a /40kg/ thread with the question of a backported fan supported edition as the thread question, then created the first /fourk/ thread with the hopes that maybe there could be a little "/tg/ gets shit done" happening. 10th edition was pretty bad and all people did was bitch and bitch about how the current edition is awful.

Then when anons started spitballing ideas and the Imperial Guard autogun sergeant was the first backported model as autogun stats already existed I felt that there was hope.

Truth be told I don't have any rules writing experience. I just wanted to be the guy who started the whole thing and then it would blossom into something worth archiving on 1d4chan if it ever comes back or whatever site is the proper successor to it.

But that didn't happen. The people just kept fighting and bitching about 10th edition and a discord was made for the rules writing project and it seems that they've either disbanded or the project died out as nobody could agree on what was to be done.

I can see why you think that, but I assure you I had no reactionary thoughts.

I actually had the idea a few months before the Custodes drama happened, I just thought that the time was right and that the iron was hot and was perfect to strike and get the project off its legs and going. And that the frustration would bring people together to create something nice.

It was a calculated risk, and I've never been good at math.

I believe there actually was suggestion for the Horus Heresy 2nd edition rules to be used. I think that idea was brushed away quickly out of fear of GW lawyers throwing the DMCA-hammer at the project if it ever got to the point where it has a website.

I guess people thought it was a better idea to stick with fourth/fifth edition as that was out of print and may be why it survives just like how NetEpic Armageddon is keeping that game alive.

I seriously wanted and even believed that I started something that would join the pantheon of legacy supported GW games like Epic, Bloodbowl, and Mordheim. I got my hopes up too high when I saw a little community forming at /fourk/.

I sincerely believe that GW deliberately made Finecast resin so bad and doing so knowing they were the face of the miniature hobby to give resin a bad reputation so the miniature hobby base would never look at resin the same way again.

Now resin is inferior to hard plastic and metal, but it is far better than most Warhammer players give it credit for.

Don't be sorry, it was a legitimately good idea. 4th was pretty great. It's not your fault that too many namefags wanted to use the thread to crowdsource their own twist on the project.

Power levels are prices for an "average" loadout. This means you're overpaying for stuff you don't use and there is no granularity of weapons/wargear at the individual unit level. You can't fine-tune your list to fit things you want, you're always either over by fifty points or under by fifty points.

Free wargear is based, however we should be able to swap our special weapons at the table based on the opponent we are fighting, every kit should come with the models to support that, and every model should have a generally good option and special options that have niche rules.

Kind of my point that the exact same arguments can be used for points in 10th edition. No wargear costs, no per-model costs, and units being balanced based on minmaxing. Enhancements are the only bits you can really modify.

Technically the rubble from the Speed Freekz/Mekboy Workshop, but the Octarius terrain included that sprue as well, and that is indeed where those are from.

And yea, I think if I could I would have kept them on clear acrylics and given the new ones the same, but I actually got these second hand after already having 6 of the new ones assembled and painted, so it made more sense to match them that way rather than cut up and rebase already finished models.

All of the kill teams for example are top notch. The chaos kits themselves have a lot of interchangability. Meanwhile you can't just put chainswords on your intercessors, because the intercessor kit literally doesn't come with chainswords- you have to buy the Assault Intercessor box. Those kinds of things are clearly designed to make people buy extra boxes for weapon options that chaos gets basically as an obligation. Kits like the spawn and helbrute have a lot of options too. Space marines get attention but it's not very good attention, it's just fomo-y attention. The closest thing I feel is the "new chaos jump pack lord" who doesn't look that impressive or chaos lordy to me, like you could probably kitbash something better together, but the lord with jumppack was made to get people to buy the fomo box.

I would see a chaos spawn team as a counter sabotage defence not be the saboteurs themselves, maybe there can be base/naked chaos spawn and then spawn that has melee weapons and armour chained to them, or a pysker controlling them allowing them to use ranged weapons and make other intelligence choies since they're just mutated flesh bags puppetted by some chaos psyker

The "afterlife" is your soul dissolving in the immaterium. If you pissed off a powerful daemon or a chaos god, your soul may be prevented from dissolving and captured/tortured instead. I don't know of any instances of the gods respawning a favored mortal outside of Lucius though. Daemon princes do not count, since they become an immortal daemon upon ascension.

If the gods have a use for you, you might get a second chance in some form or another. If you're the average chaos worshipper your soul will be devoured or just dissipate in the warp if you're lucky.

Ash. It's energized gas. If it grazed a limb it would be ash, everything close would be ash, then 3rd degree burns. Hell it hitting close to you should kill from exposure or the shockwave. Now armor would probably mean you melt with the armor or it cooks you. Personal shields would light up then fail and burn you depending on the shield strength or survive but blind you. Basically death for anyone bar demon princess, c'tan, or large targets/tyranid hyper evolution. Even necron death bar a lord higher or cryptek.

I'm going to cut up the gauze, dye it green and soak in glue and water, I'll have two poles to hold it up to conceal the fact that there are no gunners in there.
Where the blue tac is I'm going to make a sandbag wall (see model behind). The back of the model I'm going to have it a hill (I'm less sure about how this will look or if there is a better option).

Christianity doesn't believe that. All you have to do is believe in Christ Jesus and you get to go to heaven. There's no quota of deeds you have to do to get the bare minimum benefit of worship. You certainly don't have to be the elite.
