Played some Tau in 9th. For 10th I waited for the Farsight Enclaves to release. There's Mont'Ka but I guess Retaliation Cadre represents them better.
Tau are ranged but also mobile. I hope they are fun to play with/against?
I'll never forgive them for removing the Fusion Blades...

>>93383623
As long as you’re not too crazy they’re fun to play against. For me as a Necrons guy Tau is a puzzle of how I get up close to kill you with skorpekhs and wraiths. Very fun and despite the stale memes Tau is a cool skew army serving as the Khorne antithesis. One piece of advice: I don’t give a shit who is guiding who. I trust you to not be a big so don’t waste 10 minutes each round telling me that shit.

Chaos Knights are literally haunted gundams. They pollute the battlefield with fear and intimidate your opponent quite easily. That is why I like them.
Also, look at this picture. Look at the bottom right hand corner.
Look at that guardsman's fucking face. That is the face of a man who has realized that, after seeing the hull of a dreadnought be COMBUSTED through the sheer RPM of a reaper chainsword, that he has no chance of surviving this confrontation. And he is the sanest person in this picture for that reason.

Hello Sisters. I am novitiate sisters of the minor order of Wet Mantle and I was assigned to laundry duty. The robes of my fellow sisters are all dirty and stained with blood of infidels and covered with leadbelcher dust and I would like to make them pristine creamy white.
What is the best detergent I could use? More experienced sisters suggested Rakharth Flesh and then Pallid Wych Flesh as fabric conditioner, but I am slightly worried they are just trying to prank me, because they wear dark black gowns. Could you tell me your secrets?
>>

>>93383956
The Order of the Gilded Citadel detergents are of middling quality and overpriced. Help your Abess instead by ordering your detergents from House Vallejo of Necromunda instead. For example, 70.820 Off-White conditioned with dilute 70.918 Ivory.

>>93383536
I've always played against anyone regardless of their army's paint state, but there is something just fundamentally distasteful about playing against a graytide army.

40k isn't exactly a balanced game, so graytide feels like the player is just chasing the win in that unbalanced game instead of contributing to the visual spectacle of the hobby. The longer I've played, the game has gotten less important to me than the aesthetics of the board and models playing out the battle. I'm now borderline on just refusing to play against unpainted armies, though a part of me still feels that's dickish. Like, I know people are 'busy', but if I can field a fully-painted guard army I would expect other armies to be able to put at least some effort in.

To me it's more that it's just disrespectful to my time as a player. Like you can't even be bothered to prime any of it before you show up to a game? You're gonna force your opponent to look at your boring ass gray plastic across the table for close to three hours?

Thank you, experienced sisters. I have brought your advice to our canoness and she as a wise pragmatic woman decided to order a small batch from both House Vallejo and Manufactorum AK to wash the clothes of the ordinary sisters. Also something called Chameleon paint caught her eye, from the paradise world of Green Stuff. Sounds a bit sus to me, the armours then look like they change colours, but I have been taught to not question my superiors.
If your laundry advice will be sound, I am going to be rewarded and assigned to the laundry and armour polishing duty permanently, as even the gowns of sacresant and retributor sisters will need to be washed again. I am so happy the God-Emperor chose me for this duty. I will be sure to share pictures with you on this ecclesiarchy sanctioned image board.

Also who buys all that stuff without painting any of it? Like, do you buy all 2000 pts at once? Don't you buy just one or two kits at time and only buy another when you are finished with them, going slowly from 500 pts to 1000 and if you like the army eventually over time crossing 2000?

Paul Verhoeven's movie is a satire of fascist. He began to read the book, got the fascist vibes and didnt finish it.
While in the book has the option to server a dangerous job. It isnt the military people who can vote, it is the people who put themselves at risk that can vote.
Also Rico int the book is a brown Filipino, unlike the movie aryan blonde.
>>
>>93384115
>Starship Troopers is cool because we never see the bad side of fascism, because fuck xenos, and because Paul Verhoeven doesn't understand that a subliminal message that is too subtle to be understood is no message at all
Anon the movie depicts the bad side of fascism very well, if you don't notice them or see them as bad thats on you.
Also why does no one ever comment on after the bug supposdly sling a comet at a human city the government has a whole well made, heavily editied ad to join the army t fight bugs ready to go in under 3 minutes of the eent occuring. Clearly the movie shows its a falseflag attack but no one talks about it.

I'm not exactly sure how guard squad range is measured in 10th edition. Is it by individual model range (with the exceptions of special weapons/sergeant weapon) or with a movement tray it can be measured from the edge of said movement tray?

If by edge of movement tray I would go with a movement tray like pic related

With any standard measuring device.

>>93384302
I'd be down for a regiment based on the archetype of 2000s / Future Soldier projects.
Lots of experimental gear, mixed with older stuff to show the transition/rapid development to adapt to new forms of warfare.
Would be a newer regiment who hadn't been exposed to most of the galactic threats, probably only really dealt with Orks and some eldar pirates.

>>93384461
It is not a false flag, it is the bugs defending themselves from the bad guys, the humans. In the movie they say it comes from bug space.
Also Verhoeven doesnt understand distances neither physics in space.
>>
>>93384436
What is this "bad side of fascism" that gets depicted in the movie, according to you?
Be modern liberal democracy or neogothic theocratic monarchy, MASSIVE casualties are a consequence of war, not of the political system.
So that's not "a bad side of fascism" depicted.
I saw inclusivity for the disabled, and restriction of civilians from exercising political power. Both of those I see as good things.
>>93384461
Nah it's not a false flag op. Directors are simply crap at grasping numbers in movies.
Of course it makes no sense that bugs can retaliate by hurling rocks from millions of light years away...but human ships can cross that same distance in like a month because MAGIC, so the bugs can be assumed to do that same thing too.
>>
>>93384492
I know that a tape measure is necessary. I'm just wondering if groups of units range is done on a model by model basis or can be done as a group basis provided one model is in range which may mean all of them are in range.

>It is not a false flag, it is the bugs defending themselves from the bad guys
Anon we never see the bug have the technology (biological like nids or otherwise" being able to influenc ethe trajectory of a comet, let alone fire on across the galaxy.
The bugs kill humans that settle on a planet they're on because they're territoral, the comet coming from bug space comes purely from the fascist lying human government, who fired on from the direction of bug space to frame them, and then did the same thing a second time and had on of their own fleets get in its path to show the urgecy of the need to go to war aganist the bugs.
Its a falseflag like the Gulf of Tonkin incident

How doe sone properly replace IGOUGO?

My idea is to introduce an initiative phase where all models on the table roll with the highest rolls go first and modifiers based on in lore reflex ability. So an eldar or space marine infantry would tend to go first while a deathguard poxwalker would get a -1.

Fuck Bungie. They took a badass 10000+ year old cyborg with armor that can't be removed, and made him into an abducted, raped child soldier.

For shit sand giggles, one day I want to do a sci-fi super soldier faction that ends up completely fucking up. For starters, they try this
>harsh environment makes stronger warriors
but end up getting developmentally stunted, paranoid survivalists without proper education. Or maybe they spent thousands of years there and evolved to favor survival instead of combat, straight up regressing in many essential parts of being a soldier. Grabbing kids like that ends up failing because we nabbed some feral kids who are hardly taught table manners. Or if the milisecond the hypno-indoctrination to keep them loyal wears off, they all desert en-mass.

MASSIVE casualties are usually a logistical issue which is almost always due to leadership in one way or another. Yeah generals fuck up, but if you REALLY wanna fuck up. You do it by fighting something you had no hope of winning to begin with.

And how is that done? Usually because some ignorant politician who knows more about taking control of a country than fighting a war.

the skinnies in the book were an allegory to the vietnam war, the whole book was conceived as a indictment of fascism, the author has said as much in interviews and correspondance.

In reality most servitors are vat-grown clones, criminals being turned into servitors is also common but the cloned ones out number them.

>Anon we never see the bug have the technology (biological like nids or otherwise" being able to influenc ethe trajectory of a comet, let alone fire on across the galaxy.
They don't, they only have mind powers, no telekinesis of any kind, none that is actually even shown, so it is pure speculation, ie. fanfiction.
Nevermind that the Milky way galaxy is 100 000 Light Years in diameter.
What that number means is that it takes LIGHT, the fastest thing in the universe, 100 000 years to go across the milkyway galaxy.
How long is that?
Well if the bugs supposedly "fired"/influenced that asteroid from the other side of the fucking galaxy, it means they had to do so during Earth Middle-Paleolithic period, aka literally during the Stone Age when humanity's greatest technological achievement was a sharpened rock on a stick and fire, this is before even agriculture was invented by humans which at best started in the Fertile Crescent 12 000 years ago.

This doesn't even take into consideration the fact that there is no evidence at all that the bugs would be able to accelerate the asteroid to move at the speed of light, meaning the rock is gonna be hurdling through space slower than that, also nevermind all the fucking planets, starts, gravity wells and other shit that'd be in the way and potential fuck up the course of the asteroid.

The entirety of Starship Troopers plot just hinges on that the goverment intentionally bombed its own city to justify a war on bugs that existed on the other side of the galaxy.

This, Buenos Aires was a false flag attack to justify invading the Arachnid systems. The movie is about a young guy who joins just to follow the girl he loves and then gets wrapped up in the terrible drama that is war. They show everyone else's reasons for joining aren't to kill bugs, but to advance themselves in society because they have no other alternative. They show the terrible cost in lives and injuries that the war costs, and the SS Neil Patrick Harris is literally a psychic SS spook and revels in the fear of a species on the verge of extermination or enslavement. Its a great movie because you can enjoy it as the jingoist RA RA HUMANS colorful world and get the message from it.

I think the real reason people miss the messaging is because SO many of us saw it as kids and literally just didn't have the real world context at the time to pick up on all the bad stuff going on in the background. As someone who has served in the US military, I think it actually depicts some of the personal aspects of why people join pretty well and points the blame of the cost of war at the systems and the people making decisions not the people fighting them.

Its okay to have fun playing the bad guys, after all pretend war is a fun hobby and wars need an aggressor to happen. It's also okay not to overthink it and just think muh toy soldiers are neat. That's why everyone hates the IMPERIUM IS SATIRE THE IMPERIUM IS THE BAD GUYS fags so much. Timmy with his lasgun in the PDF trying to keep his world from getting murder raped by Chaos Warband leader Rapestrangler Babymurder is a narrative we can sympathize.

My favorite thing about Eldar and my least favorite thing about Eldar is that they aren't anywhere near as superior as they act. They clearly get outwitted by humans and even cunning Orks. Their greatest scholars clearly can learn from the greatest human scholars. Their greatest warriors can clearly be killed by the greatest human warriors. But they still act like they are literally the most superior being in all of creation. It's perfect and very 40k, but I wish they were written better to justify how insanely strong even a random eldar civilian should be.

No, 10th ED runs like a live service with 4 or 5 balance passes a year and 2 of them are big ones that can include stuff like new detachments or army rule reworks. So your army might be 55% win rate in march and 45% in august.

Their civilian militias are more powerful than the trained line soldiers of other factions. They even strike earlier than mankind's supersoldiers. That is sure to breed arrogance.
I keep hearing they lose and lose, but their victories are basically a bunch of civilians and OCD patients using precognition to defeat professional soldiers. It's a miracle they don't always lose 100% of the time.
I do like their arrogance is their biggest obstacle. Like how it was with Yriel, the Seer council and the Tyranids.

They aren't dumb, they are fanatical. Because of, you know, the entire setting being about how humanity devolved into its worse form as a bunch of brainless xenophobic fanatics.
Or how the CWE can't actually fix the galaxy because they are way to up their own asses about it and everyone they need to help them they view as lesser animals.
Or how the Orks devolved from a more complex society that could actually do diplomacy and trading into one that lusts only for war.
Or how chaos heretics delude themselves their actions are righteous while stomping on a babies face.
Or how the Tau have become a psyop mind controlling deep state with no free will.
Or the Necrons have lost their souls in a bid for immortality and become slowly degrading robots that have a cumulative chance to go completely insane or explode and can't be replaced.
Or how the Demons are psychic manifestations of living beings emotions killed all the spirits that represent the good emotions so now the warp is ONLY BAD STUFF ALL THE TIME and is a maddening maelstrom of the worst aspects a sentient being can have.
Or even how the Votann have warped the AI technology that leads their civilization by dumping their racist uncles souls into them for 10000 years to the point they are breaking down from continuously added insanity.

it depends
the faction is a write off after the codex, so just make the stuff you like and have fun fucking around at the table, rather than getting lured in by the sweet siren song of meta.

All those boxes give you every troop option. GSC is a very character heavy faction, so you're going to be lacking some key HQ. I'd add a Broodcoven to the list, for the Primus and Patriarch and you should be a able to pick up a discount due to the recent Kill Team release.

The things you will probably want a lot of, if you get deep into the faction, are ridgerunners and acolyte/metamorph bodies. The acolyte sprue currently has a bunch of extra limbs and heads, so kitbashing extras with alternate bodies might save you some cash.

Characters you'll want, aside from the Patriarch and Primus I mentioned are probably a Nexos, Reductus Saboteur and Biophagus. Iconwards too, most likely. Everything after that is personal preference, I'm fond of the Locus and Kelermorph, plus I proxy an old Catachan Sniper as a Sanctus. Abominants are good nuisance lone characters, too; tough enough to force your opponent to dedicate a lot of fire in order to get rid of an action monkey, hit hard enough to demolish a transport if ignored.

You'll have enough Neophyte sprues in those boxes to outfit one unit with an optimal heavy/special weapon loadout.

>tl/dr: You'll want more neophyte weapons, more acolyte bodies and more ridgerunners to cover all the basics. Past that, character and specialist units come down to aesthetic preference and detachment requirements. The 3 boxes you listed will let you run 4 of the 5 detachments, but not optimally for any of them except HoA, I think.

Yes and no. There's context you are missing. In a vaccum, humans can come close to what an Eldar can achieve, but most humans are unwashed menials who never learn anything but how to pull the lever that makes turns their dead uncle into corpse starch or do basic accounting.

Baseline, Eldar are probaly like 280 IQ by our standards, .000001 second reaction time, physically stronger, immortal, and have access to insanely good education and mentorship programs.

Obviously the strongest and smartest humans, especially post humans, are more than capable of having meaningful conversations or being serious threats to an Eldar, but their racism is supposedly justified because most humans ARE that shitty. Also, Eldar tend to be better educated and have more "good aligned" morals which conflicts with the turbohatred the Imperium endorses. In the lore, there are plenty of Eldar and Human partnerships. Inquisitors or Rogue Traders sometimes visit craftworlds and if they are flexible enough are even decent enough house guests to learn from them. But your average fanatical imperial citizen would die fighting a particularly angry and mean rat.

Just one tip to make your L ruins look a million times better, add chest high sections of the other two walls. Not enough to block LoS, but looks infinitely better, like there was an actual building there before and not just two walls, helps blur the edge of the base and is more visually consistent with the fact that you get cover inside the entire area. Also a bit of rubble both inside the building and in separate bases to scatter around. Those little things make boards look and feel way better without changing much or anything about the playability.

You realize every faction is written so they can be the main character right? A real human isn't supposed to go "filthy xenos! never trust them!" unless they are larping as their imperial faction. Idk what nonsense words you projecting into my mouth, but my point is that every faction is broken, including the Eldar. Do you think the Eldar haven't done equally stupid and retarded things because of their own faults and idiosyncrasies? What retarded cope post is this? I like CWE. Here's your (You).

nigga you've just done the basecoat of course it's gonna look bad, finish the paintjob. This is why you do test models, to see how it all looks finished before commiting.

But if you want tips for blue, try to do a gradient of that nice sky blue as a midtone and a darker blue with maybe a hint of purple for the shade. Then do some edge highlights with a lighter blue. Like pic related.
>>
>>93385039
oh yeah its just base coated but theres a few things that i dont like already. using a dark metal for the axe followed by a slightly darker metal for the handle was quite bad. i do like the bright colours that deathskulls use though, not sure i could commit to painting 1092108408102810093049081720 orks this way though

ill give those tips a try, ive got a few blues in front of me (macragge, caledor sky, teclis) and was going to try out tyran blue, i cant remember the purple wash that gw sells but ive got it somewhere

I'm wondering how big the quarantined area is. The crater is said to be at least a hundred miles across. So that's some frame of reference.

>>93385045
The trick with horde armies is to simplify the colours. Pick just a handful of materials and keep it consistent. You don't want to paint 14 different colours per ork boy. For the axe I'd suggest painting everything in the same mid silver tone and then use washes to turn some parts of it into copper and brass to break it up since it's much faster. The biggest point of interest in orks is the skin followed by the spot colour of the armour. The rest is less important and mostly fabric and leather which you can paint fast with contrast paints or something similar and do a single highlight if you feel like it. If you're up for it, try mixing up the recipe of the green skin. Keep the process the same but pick up two or three 3 colour triads of shade, midtone and highlight and paint each batch of models with one of them. Takes the same time but makes your orks look way more natural and varied, IMO.

Since we're at it, check this video where I took that pic of the blue, she's painting an ork so you might get some ideas.

thats why ive decided to paint my army as goffs, its simple enough for me and i can just hit most of the ork with transparent / contrast black that looks somewhat reasonable. its possible to use contrast on metals to turn them into something else (fyreslayer flesh for metal into copper, a 50 50 mix of fyreslayer flesh and iyanden yellow for brass) which will make shit quicker. ive got a decent recipe for ork skin but i dont know how much time i have to experiment with it. so many greens, inks, washes etc that ive never bothered to use

I’m pretty new, only started off at the start of 10th and I just recently bought the last few units I needed to finish out my 2000 point list. In terms of painting, what do yall usually prioritize? I work very long hours during the week so I usually only get 1 good night of painting in a week.

Right now I only have about 40% of the army painted. Also, any tips to help grind through SM infantry painting? I think I’ll invest in a paint gun for the vehicles, but I’ve been doing 5-10 marines at a time brush only and it’s taking a long time.

You're not supposed to make a huge jump into this hobby unless you know it is for you. Like buy a Reaper or Wizkids mini and a few paints and a brush and try it out.

But since 40 percent of your army is painted then I'd say you've done more painting than people have done here. And keep at it whatever you're doing as you seem to have a nice speedpainting method.

Bombing the fuck out of them is not a defining trait of Vietnam any more than it was of Irak. Or Afghanistan. Or Syria. Or whatever third world country the USA happens to be bombing that day.

Because it was relevant at the time the book was written, you absolute moron. Everything you listed hadn't even happened yet, and while it's not the first time the US flagrantly attacked civilian populations in war, it was the time they were doing it closest to when Heinlein wrote the book and ergo the easiest allegory to make when trying to set the tone for audiences buying the thing when it was published.

If he manages to hit it and quit it, basically nothing. She might get pregnant and give birth to offspring that will be a hybrid of the next generation (if a regular, unknowing human fucked her then she was probably 4th generation which means she's popping out a Purestrain Genestealer).

However, hybrids coupling with humans not yet in the cult will always try and honey pot them into coming into contact with an element of the cult that can hypnotically indoctrinate them - the Magus or Patriarch. They may also be given the Kiss, so that they can go and sire hybrid offspring with other genetically pure humans.

I didn't address the extremely likely possibility that even during the act, the hybrid has already arranged for a dozen of her brothers/sisters/cousins to prepare to capture her victim to bring them to be indoctrinated. So I'd say while it's a technical possibility, in just about every actual case the victim is going to end up in the cult.

Conquest comes as a result of surrender. The ruling classes of what was to be Necromunda capitulated to the military strength of the Imperium and so were conquered.

Most of the fluff concerning STCs comes from House Van Saar, which only came to Necromunda some five thousand years after the Imperium had conquered it.

Alright fair enough. The model does look good though.
For speed I would recommend painting pieces in this order, as I've done around 110 boyz now and find this makes things have a lot less cleanup.
Skin>pants>shirt/arm bands>leather straps/boots>metal parts>blue parts>misc stuff like topknots. Might not work for everyone but that's just what I find easiest.
After all the basecoating is done I do the washes next. Sounds like your blues are quite similar to mine before I switched to pro acryl. I still use tyran blue for my washes and if you want a darker wash for recesses i recommend drakenof nightshade.
I know that anon said to simplify colors for hordes but I dislike that. I enjoy my 100 Boyz all being colorful.

Good morning /40kg/.
I painted 10 guard dudes and I think I found my go to basing scheme.
It is pva glued on sand with AK paints afro shadow and drybrushed with grey brown.

Also be careful not to water down your pva glue too much otherwise the grass doesn't really stick up.

>>93385673
A humidistat is basically an upgrade thermometer for your house. It tracks the temperature, the humidity, and a bunch of other stuff. I got a cheap on on Amazon for $20 US

I’d get one of those and then go back and look up what humidity your wet palate best operates at, then adjust accordingly

>>
>>93385706
I know, anon.
That's why I included the warning bit about watering down pva glue too much then applying static grass.
I think what happened was the wet pva glue travelled up the static grass and caused them to come down.
>>
>>93385691
It's up to you. There's no points difference.
Personally I like the Inferno Pistol, but then I play melee Sisters.
The Combi-weapon is going to be more generic in its utility but the Condemnor having Precision can make it useful it popping wounds onto enemy characters, even against non-Psykers.

>Also be careful not to water down your pva glue too much otherwise the grass doesn't really stick up.
Habibi your grass is dead flat. Please make or buy a static grass applicator.

Isn't the inferno that one handed melta?

Yes. Only 6" range, so you basically have to be in melee to get the full effect.

They're one of the minor houses. Necromunda had STCs left over from when they colonized the planet, not to mention xenos tech and a bunch of scientific advancement that would be seen as heretical by the current Imperium, such as openly studying xenos tech, unearthing archeotech and playing around with genetic manipulation and drugs that enhance psychic ability

Not really, the ruling dynasty of Necromunda was elevated into place by the Imperial Fists after a failed coup by the remnants of the previous regime. Indeed the closest thing to an anti-Imperial continuity is supposed to be the desert dwelling bug people.
>They're one of the minor houses.
Being a minor house doesn't mean they're unimportant. As to the rest they are in fact not very open about such technology or studies. Almost everything is far away from the eyes of the Mechanicus. Mars absolutely could smash and pilfer Necromunda if it felt the need to.

I'm glad 40k isn't grimdark anymore. Grimdark was tying the franchise down, GW realized this and now the setting is primarch focused.

Hopefully all the daemon primarchs can be redeemed so that the Emperor can return and all xenos can be wiped out. Hail GW!

Why is everyone sour on the shining spears? I tested some out in a TTS game because I was considering getting some to play with. They came in from reserves, made a good charge into the backline ghostkeel who was harassing me and had some solid output (despite the fact I think that's tougher than an optimal target, leaning heavily on LANCE keyword). Ghostkeel had some drone things to negate damage but against a softer target, I'm sure they would've killed. They get passive -1 to be hit, 4+ invuln when charging/advancing that turn. 1CP to let them fallback and charge.
basic lance is
>3A 3+ 4S -2 2D (+1 wound on charge)
star lance slightly better on exarch

GW should make game called strike teams or something where you field like 5 squads and only light vehicles. Maybe just one tank.

For the anons who don't know, a lot of the teams are built with 90% of the team being a forgone conclusion. That said, there's wiggle room for fluffy lists. Most of the customization comes from it being a small team so people spend more time on the models.

Doubt. Imperial Fists, Sisters of Battle and multiple Guard regiments before you even get to Spyrers and their weird xenos toys. You may as well say Mars could take Terra if it wanted to. Necromunda builds it's own voidships, munitions and servitors completely independent of Mars.

Reminds me of how Tyranids encouraged you to just make your own specialized characters or individuals in 3rd and 4th and had a part of the Codex in 5th that said you were allowed to just make your own special characters for /yourdude/ and have them just use the statblock of one of the normal characters if you wanted to do something like run OOE in a Leviathan swarm or just have a unique monster for your Hive Fleet.
I feel like the sentiment still holds true for Tyranids to this day (numerous people make OOE stand-ins and custom Swarmlords) but I've always felt like it would be totally reasonable for people to just do that with other armies and create their own guys who just follow the same rules/restrictions as the special character they're subbing for.

OOE having his fluff changes to be fleet-agnostic is good though. An idea of acarnifex alpha being made to propagate the spook of a living legend among its prey is far cooler than a just one-off nid creature. It actually explores the idea of kids being aware of and understand human emotions, while being willing to exploit that.
OOE changing colours of his coat between fleets doesn't matter. It's the 40k slasher villain that keeps coming back.

That doesn't quite make sense IMO
A magus can be a stand-in for the patriarch when no me is present but a Broodlord is basically a big pure strain alpha. A hybrid is a hybrid. I feel like that situation can only arise in a cult that has lost its access to purestrains, which would be an even more defective cult than Malstrains, which are already the weakened ones compared to its kind.

verhoeven's a hack who didnt even read the book and just assumed a meritocracy must be fascist
he tried and failed to make a fascist satire and ended up making a campy fun action movie
there's no punchline to the criticism of the perceived fascism in the movie, the hero and his friends make it out just fine and the only real examples of the satire are the vignettes of the over the top propaganda and neil patrick harris showing up in a nazi uniform

>didnt even read the book
His script writer did, and is the same guy who fed him the details and summaries to write and direct the film. Verhoeven made a campy action movie on purpose.
Also, quoting the article:
>[The book] ""clashed with Verhoeven's childhood experiences in the German-occupied Netherlands during World War II""
So I don't know what you were expecting when the German occupation survivor turned a famously pro-fascist book into a parody film. It's like when the director of JoJo Rabbit's intentionally researched zero details about Hitler for an occupation film parody (arguably better than Starship Troopers, in comedy, satire, and serious tones).

Having the same cost doesn't absolve you of modelling the correct wargear. If something is supposed to have a heavy weapon you should give it one and no, having 8 different units with gun proxies isn't good enough

>OOE having his fluff changes to be fleet-agnostic is good though
Old One Eye himself is not fleet-agnostic, he's an ancient Carnifex from the early days of Behemoth and more importantly he's still alive to this day (albeit once again frozen in a block of ice and now worshiped by a Genestealer Cult as a prophet). But even though OOE is still around and a unique character besides you were always totally allowed to just have your own monster to fill in the role anyways. You didn't even need them to look similar. Which I think is a good thing because it allows you the freedom to have your own personalized monster if you want to and just have it use OOE's rules, letting you make /yourdudes/ even more of /yourdudes/ if you want to. And as you mentioned, you can even view it as having a fluff justification ranging from "This Hive Fleet has created a super 'fex to lead the beasts that's reminiscent of OOE's legend" to "The Hive Mind is aware of OOE's unstable mutation causing it to be difficult to control but knows the fear and destruction it brings is on a scale of it's own and so will attempt to recreate it to take advantage of it's legacy's impact on the minds of prey as needed". It's just a good idea.
The point I was making is that I think this attitude is applicable to every army and I don't think there's anything wrong with using Calgar's rules for your own custom Chapter Master or making a kit-bashed Overlord who functions like Imotekh.
