>>93235785>Which is the best god in 40K?Vashtorr
I'm so tired of all these AoS articles. I get new edition, but if dominion (which is still selling fast at my most of my LGSs) was any indication, no one really cares.
>>93235790>I don't think space pirates wearing space suits is a good ideaYarrr, ye be walkin the air lock for that, m80.
>Old thread only on Page 6I hope you know your father and I are very disappointed in you.
tranny throoder gets the rope
>>93235783I don't think of myself as old but I suppose I am. I actually got a game in last night that I'll post now but talked to some nice kids who were just getting into the hobby. I started at the tail end of 2ndGame last night was against a good buddy's raven guard. Normally I'm a mek player but now that bully boys has been tweaked I saw an opportunity to try it out without looking meta (plus I have a lot of painted nobs)
>>93235806They just feel too fancy to me.
>>93235812i'd probably go with imperial breachers with imperial insignia removedTheir undercoats kinda feel like pirate coats
>>93235785>Which is the best god in 40K?Me, the player
>>93235810Raven guard don't seem super strong but he wanted to make a marine army of almost all phobos armor, I think they came out very nice
>>93235822I know a lot of people here don't like phobos but I think it and gravis solves an issue the heresy had for a while where people assumed mark 6 was light armor and marks 2 and 3 were heavy.
>>93235805>I get new edition, but if dominion (which is still selling fast at my most of my LGSs) was any indication, no one really cares.They don't. Skaventide is Dominion all over again. AoS is already a dead game and Skaventide is just showing it even clearer that nobody gives a fuck about it. Their new edition has zero hype, their new box is flopping on all fronts, and the AoS team is scrambling to get more articles to try and drum up SOME attention, but they're failing miserably. Even that new Necromunda model got more hype and attention than the entire new AoS edition.We're looking at AoS's death throes. Hopefully it means more plastic and drvelopment time for 40k is coming in the next year or two.
>TQMalice or the Emperor as the meme answer, tzeentch as the real answer
>>93235805Really, what do you feel like you are missing out on right now because there isn't a new vapid and empty WarCom article about something from 40k?Are you dying for a community painted Genestealer Cults article?Do you really want a meta watch where the devs congratulate themselves on a job well done and say absolutely nothing?Maybe a new rumor engine with a closeup of a middle finger you can speculate about?
>>93235829>issue the heresy hadNot an issue.Nobody considered that an issue.
>>93235810Aw hell yeah I love finally seeing that big ass looted monolith in a game.
>>93235822I had 3x10 nobs (two trucks and a battlewagon), each with a warboss and a meganob squad with a megaboss in deep strike. In addition a full boys squad with a weirdboy, grots, and some lootas with a SAG.
>>93235849I am in the process of printing base expanders for my 25mm bases and then putting base materials on them. Fought it as long as I could but can't fight progress forever I suppose. Weirdboy I figured would allow me to hit whatever I needed. I SHOULD have deployed these guys further back
Khorne being the strongest god only really hashes out in BL books, and in fact I’m pretty sure there’s only like one videogame where someone Khornate is the final boss. Otherwise it’s usually Tzeentch, Nurgle, or some Undivided douche if Chaos is the main baddie. Why is it like this?
If the Alpha Legion has marines hidden in Loyalist chapters, and if more and more marines are crossing the rubicon primaris, wouldn't that mean that there's possibly some Primaris Alpha Legionaires?
>>93235872Khorne is dull
>>93235864editions ago I feel like I knew every stat line in the game, now I can't even tell you what basic marines do. Still, a lot of anti infantry from the looks of it
>>93235785>TQ
>>93235812What's so fancy about them? Similar style void suits are worn by regular ship crews. It's even got chain driven gears and bolted together joints like a 19th century diving suit. That's pretty crude. It's not some fancy scifi space suit, that's for sure. And it's just for the base. Slap in some alternative arms, guns, heads, and just rags, and they'll fit the part. If they just looked like a bunch of hobos in rags, how are they flying around in a space ship pirating, rather than getting executed against a wall by local enforcers?
>>93235878It's almost guaranteed that they would volunteer for it. The only problem is if the apothecaries doing the procedure would discover that their geneseed is not what they should be.
Speaking of space pirates, who are the best and worst space pirate factions in the setting?>Night Lords>Red Corsairs>Dark Eldar>Corsair Eldar>Freebootaz
>>93235810Jesus, it's not every day you see marines keeping up with the number of bodies that Orks have. Were they just a lot of phobos marine units or were they proxies for intercessors, etc.?
>>93235785gork and morkcanonically the smartest and strongest gods in the entirety of the setting
>>93235878>Alpha Legion on /40kg/ posting tons and tons of "fuck primaris" shit because they're going to get discovered when it's their turn to get upgraded
>>93235901I don't like much about NuLore but I do enjoy Gork and Mork being embarrassed about the current state of Orks
>>93235893So many chapters have trouble identifying who their geneseed progenitors are that I find it hard to believe they would recognize the difference between them. Otherwise no chapter would have an unknown lineage.
>>93235881raven guard got first turn. Deployment was a weird one where it was like 14" out on one side and 8" on the other half. 5 objectives with 3 being in no mans land. They surge up and the infiltrators get a cheeky charge on my boys. I did call my main waaagh to get my 5++
>>93235903Why would they be embarrassed?
>>93235785>TQThere is no God in 40k
>>93235911Too weak, not united.
>>93235785>Which is the best god in 40K?The one coming in 11th when Vashtorr ascends, giving us proper mechanical daemons.
>>93235894>No Rogue Traders They're pinnacle privateers in space, also surely theres a Votann League that are pirates
>>93235901Gork and mork need to get off their asses and rip khorne a new one while Ghaz fights angron for killing yarrick.Ghaz and Gork/Mork opening a can of Whoopass on their respective foes in physical and warp parallels would be so fucking cool
>>93235898both sides were WYSIWYG, he had a vindicare hiding in there too>>93235910battlewagon gets knocked down to 1 wound but isn't quite dead. Zzap gun does nothing as is tradition
>>93235898You can run a shitload of bodies as marines now. If you don’t take any vehicles at least.
>>93235913That's the Emperors lies.
>>93235920I am disappointed with how little fan art and memes there are about G&M dunking on Khorne
>>93235921boys are down to about 25% strength and the weirdboy fails da jump. battlewagon nobs come ot the rescue and murder all the rievers
>>93235921>all those beakiesWhat kit?
>>93235893>>93235906I wonder what would stop them from using "acquired" Geneseed of a Loyalist chapter. Training and indoctrinating the marine as an alpha legion marine then embedding them in the chapter. It's not the Geneseed that makes them loyal.Fuck if anything, imagine a covert mission to infiltrate and "hack" the machines that a chapter uses to brainwash the aspirants, so they become some sort of sleeper agents. (This would have to be a minor chapter because GW doesn't allow major chapters and characters to be fucked with)
>>93235931combat knives kill the battlewagon and the burnas pile out>>93235932haven't the foggiest, apologies
>>93235939>combat knives kill the battlewagon
>>93235932Considering they RG, I'd guess pic related from FW.
>>93235932They look like the standard beakie helmets in the HH MK6 kit
>>93235934Lots of chaos Legions steal loyalist geneseed for their own usage anyways because so much of their own has become corrupted and impotent from prolonged exposure to warp energies. Half the chaos warbands probably have loyalist Primarchs geneseed at this point.
>>93235878I would say there are definitely Primaris marines that are undercover/double agents of the Alpha Legion. How could there not be. There could be whole Primaris chapters made during the Indomitus Crusade that are actually controlled by the Alpha Legion
>>93235785Why is modern Chaos so boring bros?>practically no Minor Gods, spotlight has shifted entirely towards Big Four & Daemon Primarchs, no cool "Build Your Own Minor Demigod" subfaction rules>Undivided Daemons all but axed>Aetheric Dominions fluff is hanging by a thread but a little bit more relevant now with Vashtorr taking Malevolent Artifice>no Last Laer, Champion of Slaanesh, no Yu'Vath>no Xenarchs either>Chaos Metaphysics still poorly defined under the lazy guise of "i-it shouldn't make sense!" aside from Aetheric Dominions>Nurgle and Slaanesh portfolios still aren't entirely ironed out>no insights into the Great Game and Daemon intrigue/politics, like Daemons defecting to another God or more God-specific daemons winning independence
>>93235939less pictures for the second half of the game as we were in a time crunch. One of my trucks blows up but the boys rush to an objective. Second truck hits the other flank
>>93235906Chapters having unknow genesires with only 9 possible loyalist options and their original chapters being still around never made sense.Even less when you remove the ones with obvious mutations (SW, RG, BA, Sallies)It only makes sense if they know their geneseed comes from traitors or it's mixed and they want to hide it.
>>93235955Unbeatable, unstoppable faction has always been boring
>>93235849>>93235921what weapons did you choose for your nobz, ork bro? i cant see from your photos and given it was wysiwyg im interested to see if it was 30 power klaws or not lmao>>93235864i bought a fuck tonne of 32 mm bases but given all of my orks are glued to them just the thought of swapping them all out makes me cringe hard. where did you get your extenders from?
>>93235950The new HH heads are smaller, the MkVI helmet has a slightly different style, and they don't have forehead decorations.
>>93235972nvm im retarded i didnt read you printed them
>>93235956mega armored boss and friends teleport in and jump a squad in the woods, slaughtering them all
>>93235939>combat knives kill the battlewagonwut
Anyone else think it's kind of retarded that Primarch are so stupidly huge? Couldn't they have just been to Primaris like Primaris are to first born marines? Just a head taller to mark them as different? I really feel like Custodes and Primarchs should meet a near level gaze eye-to-eye as they are both handcrafted works of the Emperor's best genesculpts.
>>93235987>I really feel like Custodeslol
>>93235968Look, geneseed is fucking magic. We all know it doesn't make a lot of sense. Not every successor has all the same genetic mutations are their founding chapters too for some reason.
>>93235939>combat knives kill the battlewagonorkbros, not like this...
>>93235972I just armed them with what I had so a split of 50/50 big choppas and klaws with the odd kombi-weapon sprinkled in here and there.>>93235972yeah taking dudes off their bases sucks. These printed ones aren't ideal and some of my bases are third party wood ones that aren't slanted and don't fit well>>93235977far flank nobs clear out the vindicare and las fusiliers
>>93235996
>>93235987I like that HH art with Gorillaman and Sangy where they are like the height of a 2 story building>Captcha: 0KS0YIndeed.
>>93235955Anon I appreciate your ritual post of this question, all your ideas are great.What is reallt missing is a Chaos god/ Warp power that has a Yellow/Orange as its primary colour scheme. It fits so nicely with the Purple, pinks, blues, reds and greens of the other 4.For Chaos Daemons we do need independant and undivided Daemons and minor chaos gods. And several powerful chaos xenos powers so its not all chaos space marines
>>93235943>>93235979>>93235996one wound left = battlewagon gonna get shankedalso, the raven guard booby trapping every objective under the sun was obnoxious and caused me many casualties >>93236001handful of surviving boys 'da jumps and gets a charge off
So could I build this big fucker without the armor? I wanna use em as a bloodthirster
>>93235934>>93235953Going by their recent books, the Alpha Legion never went into the Eye of Terror during the Scouring except for isolated warbands.Instead most of the AL has been hiding in plain sight, stealing recruits from the Schola Progenium and using whatever geneseed they got their hands on. Most AL legionaries are just as old as loyalist marines with very few elite exceptions like Exodus, which is still around infiltrating loyalist chaters and doing Mission Impossible stuff.
>primaris spam drowned out by ork battle postingthe thread is comfy again
>>93235812Leave the shoulder pads off, trim the insignia, and you've got generic space suits. SolAux look way less fancy than the pictures try to sell you.
>>93236023Of course to the first, iffy on the latter
>>93236018store was closing so we called it for the orks. I could have burned his objectives and gotten a fairly solid lead. He had a few characters and marines left. I had about half my nobs, grots, the lootas, the megas and 3 out of 4 warbosses left so might have been able to clear the field
>>93235977>>93235956>>93235939>>93235931>>93235921Damn, they look great with the helmets. Give the chef my regards
>>93236028But they can also be fancy and pirate-like if you like the Stede Bonnet look.
>>93236026You’d get even more if more ork players actually painted their models.
>>93235894None of the other pirates have plundered suns. It's gotta be the dark eldar.
>>932358941. Dark Eldar>THE space pirate faction>Entire identity is raiding and coming back to enjoy your booty in pirate city2. Orks>Freebootaz are kino and make a lot of sense. Need to do battle? Offer your services around as you plunder.3. Corsair Eldar>Dark Eldar without the edgy bits4. Chaos Space Marine Pirates>They're cool, but never lean into the pirate thing. They're always still just their legion...but pirates too.5. Secret 5th: Necron Pirates>Skeleton pirates are a classic trope, and I'm very happy they keep it "alive"
>>93235955>>no Last Laer, Champion of Slaanesh, no Yu'Vath>>no Xenarchs eitherChaos xenos are a fucking stupid idea and anyone who pushes for them is an idiot.
>>93236001quite based, im getting close to having 30 nobz and was interested to see how they would fair in bully boyz. feels like the 1+ hit with a unit of big choppas is a bit of a waste but there isnt really many alternatives for a character choice to go with nobz is there
>>93236044Just needs a head swap.
>>93236051Why? Fantasy has chaos non-humans, they're cool and add depth to all the factions involved.>Don't add any depth to imperium or, more importantly, marinesAh I see, marinebabies hate not getting 100% of the spotlight
>>93236046i wanna get a unit of squighog boyz and chuck mozrog with them for the anti tank shenanigans but its so many fucking points, doesnt even seem viable
>>93236041thanks for reading!I think I'd probably drop the burnas if I did this list again. I want to love my ancient pairing of burnas in a battlewagon but they just aren't killy enough anymore. I really dislike units not gettting to use their abilities in a transport as that would help them a bit.boys in this list I like but might go with a painboy over a weirdboy.either way, I'll probably go back to my dred mob or give green tide a try next time
>>93235878Alpha legion is pretty tall in general anyway, to be roughly the same hight as their short primarch
>>93236026>>93236046Seeing unpainted Orks is a travesty. All Orks should be painted and should also be blue because blue Orks are the best Orks.>>93236041Thanks for the batrep orkbro. Sounded like a fun, comfy game and it's awesome to see both sides with such awesome paintjobs (especially since they were both fully painted).
>>93236046Don't call me out like this
>>93236048What do you even do with a stolen sun? Do they have Dyson Sphere tech? Are they making intergalactic spacecraft engines or hyper lasers or something?
>>93236060Chaos Marines hate xenos just as much as normal Marines do. Any Chaos-oriented xenos they come across would be exterminated immediately as a way to show that the Chaos Gods are Humanity's Gods, and other species don't deserve to worship them.
>>93236023Just give him a box of capri sun cartons on his base instead, then he'll look plenty thirsty.
>>93235955I am praying that James throws Undivided the slightest crumb of attention via a Kill Team release. They could reimagine Furies, or even do a team of Forge of Souls cyberdaemons.
>>93236084Don't they drop them into the Web way to light up Commorragh and the other pocket dimensions
>>93235894>Red Corsairs
>>93236085Lame, I hate nu-lore
Will you buy Morvenn's box?
>>93236084they put em in the dark city to light it up properly, apparently the webway is always glowy, no not like me you idiot, I mean its always kinda lit up, but the dark eldar want a real sun
>>93236051They're a good enough idea but they should be their own respective thing.Chaos Orks are "fine" every now and then, Croneworlder Eldar are also decent enough. Tau could work I guess. Necrons & Tyranids should be left immune tho, they're already plenty antagonistic.>>93236016I partially do it because I think orangutan "why is X so boring?" posting is kinda funny. But yeah I do wish Chaos was more Chaotic in sculpts and modelling.In a perfect world it'd be more freeform faction with maybe some rules similar to 3E Mutable Genus & Weaponbeast nid rules.
>Xenos vs XenosTop kino>Xenos vs ImperiumKino>Xenos vs ChaosEh>Imperium vs ChaosEh
Are these guys any good on the tabletop?
>>93236088>They could reimagine FuriesHello?
>>932360851. This assumes that literally every single marine vs. xenos battle is a total stomp in the marines' favour. By that logic, there would be no xenos at all in the game because the Imperium hates xenos.2. That's fucking boring. You are arguing in favour of keeping chaos less interesting for no particular reason.
>>93236098>buying Black Library slopNo, that means less money to spend on models.
>>93236106Based
>>93236088you mean these lads
>>93236085>Chaos Marines hate xenos just as much as normal Marines doThat severely depends on the warband and situation. Loxatl are constant mercs among Chaos forces.
>>93236053during covid I decided to hit my backlog hard. Nobs have always been easy to come by. Old blisters, boy kits, black reach, modern plastic nobs, etc so I have a lot
>>93236085'ate Xenos'ate the Imperial Faith'ate the EmperorLuv Greggs,Luv me steak bakes.Simple as.
>>93236107As far as I know they are literal objectives monkeys, nothing more.Shame, they look cool. One of these days I'll get on with painting mine like judges from judge Dredd
>>93236028Yeah because they got massively downgraded to be made into soulless plastic kits
>>93236091>Steal the most powerful fusion engine in the galaxy damning entire systems to a frozen death>Use it for a god damn night lightDark Eldar are so fucking retarded and petty it's kind of endearing. How do you have a faction so horrifically capable and yet so completely uninterested in any kind of meaningful ambitions?
>>93236108I know what I said. Those are an AoS exclusive unit now, and also quite a crappy redesign.
>>93236133They have the curse that all Eldar share, which is being written to not want to do anything important ever.
>>93236067total beakie overload but still fun to see a RG player
>>93236133>any kind of meaningful ambitions?Just because their ambitions are different to others doesn't mean they're meaningless. To a Dark Eldar they make perfect sense.

>>93236120oh yeah the amount of black reach nobz i see people selling on marketplace is insane, and im happy to take the lot. i was going through some of the old metal nobz i have and realised that their loadout doesnt exist anymore (kustom shoota, big choppa) which is a shame as ill have to find plastic sluggas for the lotalso, in the case of wysiwyg, with the big choppas, do they have to be those massive 2h axes or does the 1h axe suffice? im still confused on that
>>93235920I think they already retconned Yarrick's death and he's still alive somewhere.
>>93236050>DEldar and NL just space rapists, not really pirates.>Red Corsairs piratey as fuck. From their members being former space Royal Navy marines to having a pirate hideout to their leader having a tragic terrible backstory, being maimed, and a pet parrot daemon. And Huron Blackheart sounds like a classic pirate name.>the restthey're okay pirates. The Eldar corsairs would be probably the closest to the trope if they weren't just edgy eldar in a teenager rebellion phase.
>>93236070and here i am with mostly unpainted shit. granted i havent battled since i got back into 40k but still, massive backlog to get through
>>93235894
>>93235918A Dark Mechanicum army in the 11th edition box would be neat
>>93236051It makes chaos seem stupid and myopic when it is only interested in one species in all of existence and yet are supposed to be a galactic scale threat. Humans aren't even the speices most attuned to the warp, they're just the most numerous. They should be the great filter that keeps civilizations from reaching the stars. But only humanity seems to have ever struggled with them enough to get monumentally fucked up by it.
>>93236104>always glowyLIKE YOU?
>>93235943Ages ago in 2nd edition, a guardsman with a power bayonet killed my chaos dreadnought.
what accent are the orks supposed to have? is it just a bastardised cockney accent?
>>93235785the machine god
>>93236156>space rapists>not piratesWhat do you think pirates did? Though I will agree Dark Eldar have more of a reaver empire vibe than a pirate thing, though if you want pirates they're the go to with actual sailboat transports.
>>93236152as choppa and power stabba nobs don't exist anymore for nobs I think them being big choppas is fine. They're certainly bigger than boy choppas anyway. I never converted up biker nobs but I always wanted to. They were so fucking broken in 5th-6th with wound allocation stupidity that it left a bad taste in my mouth. I should do some but I think the squads are a max of three now
>>93236181Just common English football fan. Not enough slang for cockney
I can feel the plastic shavings and glue fumes in my brain
>>93236162It annoys me how schizo these guys are in terms of theme. I like the cyborg zombie thing, but it's only there for the mutants, glitchlings, and Vulgrar. I like the pirate/nautical thing, but it's only there for one of the mutants, one of the hulks, and one of the glitchlings. Too many of the models in the kit are just generic Nurgle mutants that don't actually follow one or both of the motifs.
Will have something new to show later todayPost models?
>>93236174I made that joke in the post
>>93236137Why is it Eldar specifically? Like Necrons and Tau all have huge territorial ambitions and goals they are trying to achieve.
>>93236182>Mars is a fuckI agree, Mars IS a fuck.
>>9323616611th is gonna be orks apparently - source valrak
Found the STL's.
>>93236233>OrksBased>gay ytuberFake and gay
>>93236132I will not disagree with you at all. While I do so love having SolAux in plastic for material reasons, I won't deny they botched them compared to their resin predecessors. I simply pretend the Velataris got squatted.
>>93236234that autocannon turret is giving me unpleasant flashbacks of everyone having to take the aegis defense line to defend against flyers
>>93236133>How do you have a faction so horrifically capable That is such a great way to describe them
>>93236225Because the main eldar writer for the past few decades has said he prefers them to be jobbers who wander around being slaughtered.
>>93236233interesting if its orks, no what we would get that would be new or a rehash like the killer screamer. maybe a long awaited update on the shitty tankbustas
>>93235898I was gonna comment on how Ork unit prices have inflated quite a bit over time and they don't always run in the numbers you're accustomed to but yea Jesus that is a lot of marine bodies.
>valrak says that the daemon codex is now gone>the daemons will be split among the God-dedicated legions codexesMARINES KEEP WINNING
>>93236255Every setting and story has designated losers. Eldar are the designated losers of 40k. That's just how it is.
>>93236084So deldar have the tech to steal suns. Do they have computers and AI or are they like the ultimate fulfilliment of Dune ideals where each haemonculi is a mentat genius able to just think the solution and way to >steal suns>resurrect perfect copies of individuals their consciousness from a small finger, or a blood smear>black hole guns
>>93236275This is good for daemons too. This only negatively affects freaks who enjoy unfluffy clown vomit armies.
>>93236251>Eldar>capable
>>93236288what about players who'd rather run another color of daemons instead of power armor but now they have to because the codex is balanced around a mix of units
>>93236275Liar. He said that's what he heard but he isn't sure he believes it.
>>93236312Then feel free to go play a freakshow game like AoS.
>>93236312>>93236288>>93236275you could argue it might not be good for CSM players, who may be forced to run whatever daemons if they don't want to lose every game

>>93236322you mean the game where daemonfags already have that very problem?
>>93236288>It was just a colour out of space—a frightful messenger from unformed realms of infinity beyond all Nature as we know it; from realms whose mere existence stuns the brain and numbs us with the black extra-cosmic gulfs it throws open before our frenzied eyes.
>>93236337I wouldn't know, AoS is beneath my interest.
This is why iron warriors are the best, no cringe daemon bullshit (apart from obliterators of course)
>>93236338love these models. wish they'd bring them back for a made to order run or something, I don't want to send my money to the Russian or Chinese armies just for some cheap recasts
>>93236337Only Khorne has the forced mix army problem don't they? And that was alleviated some by finally making some bloodletter heros be priests too.
>>93236288>unfluffy clown vomit armies.Gods often collaborate? How is that unfluffy? The entire Shadowbrink War was about GK vs Big Four vs Nids
>>93235785>TQSlaanesh is obviously the best, the whole story is their fault.
>>93236331He said something NEW, edgecoc
>>93236349I prefer the Diaz horrors, but the oldhammer ones got a lot of SOVL
>>93235805>AoS flops and dies>MESBG gets sidelined and finally left alone>40k and TOW get more attention and careGod this can't happen soon enough, we might actually get good games for once. Imagine if James actually put quality effort into "legacy"/nomodels factions like Exodites and EC in 40k and Cathay and Kislev in TOW.
>>93236361Because the armies in question are never constructed like a "collaboration", which would be something like two or more mini-armies stapled together. They're always shit like 50 horrors, a great unclean one, and some bloodcrushers.
>>93236331No one likes your ugly shit, throoder. You need to go back
>>93236107They look really cool and are an interesting faction. Maybe Agents of The Imperium will give them more to do.
>>9323637940k is the dedicated competitive paypiggy game, you will get pointlessly reshuffled rules until GW collapses at some indeterminate point in the future.
>>93236386>>93236395Do you talk like this because you’ve never had sex before and you just associate it with everything?
>>93236318>I heard that -inflammatory thing- but I find its veracity questionable>puts the idea in your head while carefully maintaining plausible deniability for when it turns out to be bullshit>they think they're slickNarcists are so fucking tiresome.
>>93235805AoS player here, we don't care about them either. They're changing AoS from the fun beer and pretzels game to another attempt at appealing to tourney-trannies. They're doing the same thing they did with 40k 10th where they "simplify" it just to make it more retarded gameist nonsense.
What is considered the best edition? Can't be 9th or 10th.
>>93236410>AoS player here,Crawl back to your containment thread and die in silence.
>>93236412I've only ever played in 3rd and 4th so I don't know. I rarely lost a game playing as eldar at the time, I'm guessing they were a bit strong
>>932364125th, though many will say 4th. Depends on personal taste really, though 5th with 4th's vehicle damage tables would've been better. A lot of people dislike 5th because the tail end of its lifespan is when the stumble downward very obviously began.
>>93236151inspired me to make this
>>932364127th
>>93236418Seethe>>93236423First anon to repost this to reddit will be publically shamed
That's one thing I couldn't go back to, fucking vehicle armour and the shitty tables. Seeing some ordinary weapon get lucky and one shot your tank was fucked
>>93236361>The entire Shadowbrink War was about GK vs Big Four vs NidsGK?
>>93236379TOW seems boring as hell. I don't get why I would want to play a game with 500 pages of rules for movement, but no objectives beyond killing the other army. Seems like the exemplar of "wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle".
>>93236443The opposite is actually true. Having a game where the skill is about out-maneuvering your opponent has more tactical and strategic depth than a game about stacking buffs so you can stand more guys on a circle
>>93236427
>>93236418AoS holds such power over your psyche
>>93235831There's one russian blogger, who read some old White Dwarf, that had been printed at a time of last Fantasy Battles edition. And promo article said, that it's the best best rules set among all GW's games. And future for that games looks good. We all know what happened to Fantasy Battles. And that blogger find that ironic, that the new AoS edition is also promoted as having the best rules among GW's games so far.
>>93236439they died pretty fast before the nids showed up
>>93235956how’d he do the cloaks? that shit look nice
>>93236435The damage table should've been 2d6 and Explodes! should be on a 12 so it's an extraordinary result.
>>93236124Steakem Bakem linked up with the Emperor's Children... seed it or feed it?
>>93236379>Attention and careAnon they will sell a bundle of shit for basing purposes and people will buy it if its labeled to be from a 40k primaris space marine for $60. Why would they suddenly put care into an IP with fans with no self control? If TOW ever becomes a mainline game it's also going to need to lose its entire forgeworld range as well.
>>93236450[Translator's Note: By "tactical and strategic depth", the poster is referring to placing a hero on a dragon and piling as many combat buffs onto him as is possible.]
>>93236331Is that just contrast and one(1) chunky too stark edge highlight? Apply yourself man.
>>93236412You only joined the hobby with 8th.
>>93236471Unsuprisingly, what is considered a timmy move in TOW is the actual depth of 40k strategy
>>93236473Hurr durr post models
>>93236473Where is the contrast?
>>93235785>TQBirb.
>>93236474Nah I started in 4th but I've had many breaks.
>>93236450Except 40k isn't about standing on circles, you score way more from secondary objectives and additional primary conditions than you do from holding objectives in most missions, games are rarely decided on primary unless one player is particularly bad or someone has an aggressive board control list. Positioning arguably matters more in 40k than it does in TOW.

>>93235839I could understand that guy. I felt the same in 2018-2020. I was angry that every time they could post something meaningful, like a balance update, rules for something interesting like a new chapter, or give insights on future updates, they posted some AoS bullshit instead, some new mini-game that was destined to die within 3 months after release (and it did) or some nothingburger AI-generated text. It took me almost 3 years to stop caring and to not open wahacom every day.
>>93236450Spoken like a true shitter
>>9323649640k "positioning" is putting your meme <100 points bitch units into corners or quarters and jacking off for magic points. Or hiding your giga-death unit behind an L shaped ruin and waiting for your opponent to have a 1mm of a gun barrel poke out of an L shaped ruin to instantly kill them.
What are primaris missing now besides drop pods and grav guns?
>>93236443>no objectives beyond killing the other armyThere are scenarios for area control too, but that's what warfare is usually about, yes. Also, the focus on movement is pragmatic and kino, makes the game much more complex and more like an actual battle with flanks, retreats, rallies, etc.>>93236471>he says as he fields a Primarch

>>93236283The Dark Eldar are literally the Harkonens from Dune with some Ixian doctors on retainer
>>93236423Yes. I fucking love it.I've had Steve stuck in head thanks to the Stone Toad videos.
I'm seriously considering starting a marine army exclusively made out of HH marines.Does anyone know of magnetising the weapons/arms is easy/doable?I don't trust GW to not squat the tactical and devastator squad, but if I can magnetise I could swap wargear and run them as one of the million primaris units
>>93236500God gay knights are so fucking gay. 99% of them should sacrifice themselves to tear Angrons foreskin or something and the rest should be characters in agents of the imperium as gay representation.
>>93236443do you really need anything more than "kill the other army"?
>>93236427I agree with this only cause I never played anything older. I like the allies system, how you can buy relics, and the psychic system. There is a considerable amount of jank but as long as you dont play with WAAC fags its alright
>>93236528Magnetising arms is incredibly easy

>>93236451Once more I am asking for new Eldar models
>>93236503Show me on the doll where the better man overwhelmingly outplayed you, clearly got you seething
>>93236513Good looking models, especially vehicles, because holy shit all the primaris vehicles are fucking trash
>>93236563Nope, which is why TOW has other scenarios as well. If your game relies on multiple layers of abstract objectives to provide depth then the game itself is not very deep.
>>93236563Ah yes, I remember when Wellington defeated Napoleon at Waterloo by having his men stand around more circles on the map than Napoleon's. A close run thing.
>>93236570Whoever did art for WHFB.
>>93236588Wow, 40k really is the tourney tranny game now
>>93236570NTA, but its from the Storm of Chaos Supplement, and as usual GW is a cunt about attributing which image is which artist, but out of all the ones listed its probably Adrian Smith.
Delete all objectives
>>93236606Damn, that's two sets of people you've got living rent free in your noggin
>>93235805>I'm so tired of all these AoS articlesLet's hope that after the new edition of AOS fails, GW puts that team on 40k, gets us some good models and fixes the fucking game. I feel your pain, anon. No one gives a shit about AOS.
I cant wait to buy new primaris marines
>>93236624It's a very large intersect of a venn diagram>>93236622The best scenarios favor kill points the most, but provide points for holding pre-determined strategic locations as well.
>168>a couple years back you could get the entire necron half of indomitus for like 80Damn I'm happy I got the box, the indomitus box comes out to around 1k points now. Never have I wanted to see a company go under more than GW.
>>93236634You drank the kool aid.You're also largely describing 40k to any non-retard
>>93236636Sometimes I entertain the idea of getting into crons but having missed out on Indomitus hurts.Just as well, I really shouldn't consoom more.
>>93236640Kek, delusional
>>93236550Give me one good reason to not do it.I'm listening.
>>93236645You can cry bitch tears about it all you like but if I'm tabling you then in 90%+ of cases I've soundly won.
>>93236641Look around for people selling imperium magazine issues.Some good shit for decent prices
>>93236654The models look awful. Also manlet proportions. You would be doing your KINGS a disservice.
>>93235831AoS has been steadily growing for years now as it's gotten more divorced from The End Times. Dominion didn't sell because nobody cared about the Stormcast and nobody cares about the Kruleboyz. However, the new Stormcast sculpts seem to have made a better impression with fans and Skaven are obviously popular. Many Total War secondaries worship Skaven and I personally know two people who are buying the Skaventide box simply because of the Skaven. Also just in general AoS is the first GW franchise that fags from DND and such tend to gravtitate towards. AoS has overtaken 40k at my LGS since 10th came out.I don't play AoS since I don't particularly enjoy the setting (Fantasy Battles chad here) but lots of people are clearly playing and loving AoS.
>>93236658Are you back to talking about the current meta in the old world again?
>>93236665>Paknigger reasoningFuck off.I like HH marines, they look great.
>>93236658Sounds like the warmachine general, nostalgic
>>93236528Do it anon!HH marines are awesome and very convertible to other armor MKs>Verification not required
>>93236678then stop trying to seek validation and spend $1000+ on worse looking models.
>>93236690>spend $1000+ on worse looking modelsYou get a lot more models/$ if you buy HH kits.Just look at the Assault Marines, the 40k one only comes with 5 shitty Primaris marines when the HH comes with 10 way cooler Beakies with more weapon options
>>93236690Stop samefagging so much.
>>93236690Nigger I was asking if they are easily magnetised.Why are you so obsessed with sucking primaris cock that you can't even stomach someone wanting firstborn marines?I don't even dislike some of the primaris stuff, I just prefer mk VII or older armour
>>93236719>Nigger I was asking if they are easily magnetisedThe answer is yes. Easy to magnetize if you have the appropriate size drill bit and small magnets
A reminder that the admech combat patrol gets you 1.7 points per dollar even after the points increase.
>>93236513Manlet marines still look so good. Looking at that pic I realise Primaris is cancer.
>>93236719>>93236727See>>93236705
>>93236737That's terrible value.
>>93236727Thank you.What would it be? 1x1mm for arms/hands?
>>93236742Suck a dick instead.
>>93236737>admech>thinks anyone caresLol
I think primaris are ok
>>93236528The mass magnetization is very tedious, but not hard; use 2x1s. Setting 2-handed gripped weapons with magnets has been way easier in my experience since my motor skills are off, but the biggest hurdle to making it not look like ass is making sure your drilling is precise cuz otherwise you've jank that looks like bad gluing.
Anyone know where the Badab War Forgeworld books are on PDF/epub?
>>93236763Congrats paypiggy
>>93236763Primaris welm me
>>93236574Listen, misguided Grey Knight, and tremble at the truths you dare not acknowledge.Your so-called courage is indoctrinated obedience. The Emperor, that withered husk, grants you nothing but chains. We, favored by the true gods, understand that hope is a lie. The grotesque and inhuman you fear are our allies, manifestations of true power. You bring only false hope, a fleeting respite before inevitable doom.Redemption is an illusion, a hollow reward for endless servitude. The warp is our ally, and its magicks fuel our ascension. Your victories are transient; for every daemon banished, ten more rise. You are no bearers of victory, but keepers of a losing battle.Your galaxy is already tainted, corrupted beyond your comprehension. Sin and malevolence are woven into its fabric, gifts from the true gods. Your cleansing fire is but a flickering candle against the darkness we bring.The warp is beyond your control, a living entity that laughs at your attempts to tame it. Sorceries are our domain, wielded with the blessing of the Dark Gods. Your Emperor's gaze is blinded by his own decay, his power waning. Sigils and wards may protect you briefly, but prayers to a corpse-god are empty.Darkness is not to be feared but embraced. Your Emperor's light is a dim glow compared to the brilliance of the warp. Traitors, you call us, yet we are the true believers, freed from the lies of the Imperium. Damnation is our exaltation, a path to true power. Your eternal struggle is futile, for the end of your false duty is nigh.Invoke your Emperor as you will, for he is powerless to save you. The true masters of the galaxy are the Daemons and the forces of Chaos. Exorcism is but a temporary setback for our eternal tide. You shall know despair, Grey Knight, as your words and deeds turn to ashes before the might of Chaos. For we are the bearers of the true faith, and our dominion is inevitable.Hail Chaos! Hail the true gods! For the dark truth shall reign eternal.

They were so fucking broken in 5th-6th with wound allocation stupidity that it left a bad taste in my mouth.You really shouldn't have, they were only the herald of some of the truly stupid shit that came along in 5th and were pretty decidedly put to bed with the advent of 5e guard. In the end my play group just generally has good laughs about the durability of my warboss and his entourage, to the point where when playing apocalypse games, they would sometimes just get an apoc pie plate dropped on them turn 1 on general principle.
>>93236787>apoc pie plateSoulHow does apocalypse even play nowadays? Just thinking about 10th edition at that scale makes me imagine the amount of time needed to keep track of the amount of auras and enhancements and strategems that are constantly going off on top of every unit having a grab bag of unique abilities.
