All ad mech needs are the 30k models but I don't think GW is set up that way. I hope they get a good kill team at least.
>>93982329>Thread question:>Will someone please save Admech?GW needs to stop the deliberate rivalry they pit their sub-divisions like ForgeWorld and Boxed Games against each other and have all quarters work together to properly make products. And so that hopefully HH units can be usable in 40k. I want veletaris power axe section so badly in the guard it is unreal. Nobody at the LGS wants to play my homebrew where all I did was copy the Sisters of Battle crusader stats.
I wish Marines didn't have to heir guns so close to their bodies, I hate needing to paint guns separately
>>93982329>TQNo. Their problem is the same as marines. They have one good detachment and it still feels bad. But because they put up occasional wins they will continue to be ignored
He sees you. He don't like you.
>>93982392Fuck I thought I cropped that one.
Waiting til Spring 2025
>>93982421might be a short while
Big knight or small knights as allies?
>>93982496Can't go wrong with armigers.
Emperor's Children confirmed.
How augmented can common shmucks become without being inducted into mechanicus cult?
>>93982381I want my daemon engines back.
>>93982532common shmuckswhat kind of common are we talking about?
>fiancee left me>now have way more disposable income>spent $500 on warhammer last weeklmao
>>93982575Inqusition agent tier shmuck?
>>93982532Not very. Not just because the Mechanicus keeps tight hold on full-borg cybernetics, but just that even basic prosthetics are prohibitively expensive to the common shmucks of the Imperium.Now, wealthy nobles could afford to go mostly mechanical without being part of the Mechanicus. Especially if they have connections to heretical ancient or xenos tech.
>>93982589can be very augmented. read Eisenhorn.
>>93982532If you're rich or have something they want you can probably get whatever implants you want.
>>93982589Oh. Working for the Inquisition? With the Inquisitor's backing, they can go almost full Adam Smasher.
>>93982329>FOMO got me and I supported the WGA The Damned gamefoundShould I use proxy tanks like pic related as well as the proxy army or should I support the LGS via buying the official Leman Russ kit? The LGS' main source of income is trading cards anyways so maybe it is okay for me to go with proxies?
>>93982329>TQI like most of their range, call the cops I don't give a fuck
>>93982589then very
>>93982329>Will someone please save Admech?He will.
>>93982634>WGA The DamnedYou may as well go full proxy at that point. Do you at least buy paints from the LGS?
>>93982528>Emperor's Children snorting Thousand Sons to get high as a kiteSounds about right
>>93982528>ECThat looks more like rubric dust than cocaine, sorry
Do you ever use a canon character figurine+rules and refluff it (and paint it) as your chapter/regiment/warband/cadre/etc commander?
>>93982714It's clearly Horus Heresy Salamanders.
>>93982673I do buy paints from the LGS when I can. Sometimes the paints aren't there so I order online.I'm still trying to figure out what chaos runic like symbol I'll use for the chaos guard army like the standard bearers. I want the tanks littered with runic symbols that I'll freehand paint on.
>>93982734Most nid players do thatI've seen couple people proxy Be'lakor as other stuffSometimes marine fellas do it
>>93982583Post models. Then we'll decide whether we sympathize with you
>>93982381>I want veletaris power axe section so badlyGo play Horus Heresy then.
Fuck night lords and marines malevolent. That is all
Kroot Dragons.
How the fuck do I start playing this game
>>93982901step 1: have friendsstep 2: don't
>>93982901Combat patrol or boarding action until you build up 1000 points, get a couple games at that to learn your units and game mechanics, then build up to 2k and jump in the shark tank. Practice is the key. Gotta get reps.
>>93982899don't post that gay furry shit here
>>93982971self-reporting on what you're reading into a normal model
Looking to get into Necrons, with a fairly diverse army with no specific unit skew. Is there anything in particular that I should really avoid, be it for either utterly dismal rules or poor model quality?
>>93982735Agreed, I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be the ashes of the Eldar child Vulkan burned alive.
>>93982993they're really good right now and honestly nothing in their index is innately bad, even the fliers could be useful if u wanna see over terrain, just keep healing every turn and you'll be good
>>93982528Leagues of Hashut
>>93982979>normal modellmao
>>93982846I post my stuff plenty anon.
>>93983073just admit you want to fuck the dragon and stop projecting, freak
Can you make a thematic alpha legion list?
Ugh, this feels like shit but getting a Plasmancer and Skorpekh Lord alone are $125 from that royal court box, and this saves me having to get a combat patrol to start my necron army anyways. Help me justify buying this so I don't regret it, bros. Did I fuck up? I feel like I fucked up.
>>93982583I'm sorry to hear that anon, I hope it wasn't because of your hobbies
>>93983132Its still cheaper than the combat patrol + royal court, so its not the end of the world.
>>93983127Deceptors detachment with plenty of cultists and legionaries.
>>93983124Naw that's you.
>>93983132you fucked up dudea starter set's half cannot cost that much
>>93983144naa its because of my schizophrenia.
>>93983132yah bruled it
>>93983127>Want to make alpha legion army>Remember that all the chaos legionnaires have such bad CTE/Parkinsons that they forgot how to shoot sniper rifles>no longer want to make an alpha legion army
>>93983109Our condolences
>>93983183why don't you play it with loyalists rules?
>>93983149That's like the only thing I've had cooked for my list so far 2 10 man legionaries and a 5 man squad that's supposed to be the unsung, and 2 10 man cultists and 1 stack of 20Then I wanted to either do 2 chaos lords for the twins or just field alpharius using Abaddon rules
>>93983156It's a previous edition's box that's been out of production for a while now. That's honestly a good price, from what I can find now, especially for something with 2 pretty scarce models which haven't been updated for this edition that have only been sold in larger sets.
>The Mordian hits you with that parade ground stare.
>>93983271>mordians aren't nightsidersThis is fucking me up.
how hard are tyranids to paint?
>>93983271Nice try chief.
>>93983303Not terribly.
>>93983303Easier than most, organic looking things have more leeway to look good even with mistakes because it can be attributed to biological imperfections, whereas stuff like marines has to be accurate to the model.
>Pictured: A Primaris Space Marine Reiver, Raven Guard Chapter, 2nd Company, mid-reiving. Colorised.
Trying to paint some already assembled marines. Is it better to prime in black or grey? Also what shade of red should I use for sargent helmets?
>>93983415Black from below, grey from above
hey to that one guy that was painting figures while I was shoveling sand, I wanna say hi. Anyways fuck the lot of you /40kg/.
Imagine Andrew Tate as a Commissar in the Imperial Guard.
>>93983455why?
Do aspect warriors NEED to be on their original color scheme? I get I can paint them however I like, but would it be fluffy? Guardians are so meh my infy just won't look like they're part of the army if I have to paint banshees bone, scorpions green, avengers blue, etc. Has anyone managed to keep the vibe of the original colors while also making the AW look like they're from a particular craftworld?I'm thinking of going with either a green-heavy Biel-Tan or something inspired by NGE, original I know.
>>93983455I'd rather not
>>93982634is there a size comparison for the tanks? Also is everything going to be in plastic?
>>93983455what would he be like?what would happen to the female guardsmen?
>>93983455>Imperial official whose whole thing is executing people for cowardice>A guy who scurried away into a shithole country to dodge getting imprisoned for being a sex traffickerlol yeah great match bucko
>>93983462Manipulative shamer that doesn't actually gix anything.
>>93983455he gets fragged not even a minute into his position.
>>93983465Give them secondary/hints of the aspect colors
>>93982901Combat Patrol or Split a starter set with a friend.
>>93982901its genuinely not worth it. Find some other game in your local area if you really wanna get into a BOARD game.
>>93983462because he's basedimagine having the top G as your commissari would follow him into the depths of the warp
>>93983465>Do aspect warriors NEED to be on their original color scheme? No, while they do have their archetypal colours and you're encouraged to have some thematic color element to their uniform, different shrines have different variations.
>>93983455Dunno, ask /hhg/
>>93983530I don't think 30K has comissars.
>>93983509Me but with Joe Biden
>>93983509He’s a mediocre porn actor, sex trafficker, and grifter preying on the insecurities of beta males. I don’t think you know what based really means. Teddy Roosevelt was based. George Saint Pierre was based. Your dipshit would get raped to death by a slaaneshi daemon or executed by his fellow commissars for inappropriate relationships with the rank and file.
>>93983455He would have to be a Commissar with the Catachan Jungle Fighters in order to have a regiment that can keep up with him
>>93982648What do you use for your desert bases?
Posted this on WIP, a friend of mine printed this Trukk proxy for me
>>93982528>more Cadia shit
>>93983580Looks nice anon, I'm still working on my shitty kitbashed trukk atm (havent touched it in a week). I need one of those massive ammo chains like youve got there
I'm building an objective marker representing a crate of supplies for a hugh ranking cadian officer. What should it contain?>vintage Amasec >gold palted lasguns >credits >the remains of some saint (it's all some elaborate smuggling scheme) Any other ideas?
Is it too soon for spookposting?
>>93983580Got a link to the STL?I'm working on my own printed trukk but that one would make a fine addition to my other 4 trukks
>>93983596A servoskull to keep tabs on his precious things. Maybe add a number somewhere to your diorama so that it can be a numbered objective too.
>>93983596Golden Halo?
>>93983607>those nob headsDunno why it looks so funny
>>93983596A piece of Cadia
Had a silly thought while making my coffee.
>>93983627regular boyz heads would've been tiny on those bodies. The modeler makes his orks fucking ginormous and i didn't feel like scaling down and reprinting
>>93983628This isn't legit is it? My friend bought me one when he went to Germany but was convinced it was just a piece from some random building
>>93983629Looking at mongol/norse eating habits, khan and russ would fill theirs with whatever raw animal milk their planet has and all the other primarchs would aboslutely hate the stench it gave off
>>93983607Nice print anon, looks oldschool in a good way. Get in here: https://t.me/wadfadstAnd search for Orkaz Party Wagon, by Station Forge. It's made in modules so you have plenty of different configurations to build it.
>>93983629Khan would have it black with a tiny pinch of salt and maybe spices like cinnamon.
>>93983643Shit, you right.
>>93983608Yeah, it's gonna be numbered. I'll use some Roman numbers from GSW >>93983611I actually have a spare laurel from the Empire state troop box. Cold be a "Laurel of Command". Mabye a that and two golden guns?
>>93982532Probably not much further than bionics that are just fancy prosthetics.
>>93983596the stuffed remains of the regiment's pig mascot.
>>93983633Regular boyz heads really are small aren't they, the only ones I have that are in between the two for size are a bunch of 3rd party heads
>>93983573AK texture pastes, sandy desert and desert sand. They're really nice
>>93983629Vulkan is black.
>>93983629You've got problems
>lightning claws>chain weapons>jump packs>bikesAside from the above are there any iconic weapons or gear for Night Lords? Guns in particular since I need to print at least some special and heavy weapons.
>>93983656Sounds cool. Just thought of something that would be appropriate and easy to get a hold of.
>>93983665Oh right, do you use many paints for it?
>>93983660Indeed. They fit the boyz kit and any kit made with the boyz kit (lootas, burnas, etc) but nothing else.>>93983644Much obliged. I got banned from 40kstl (still don't know why) but I was able to find the Orkaz Party Wagon in the greenskins STL group.
>>93983671Not without getting into 30K territory.
ChaosBros, any opinion on a Lord Of Skulls over a Knight for a fun big thing to throw into a list?I like both models a lot but I would be tempted by the LOS so I can utilise all the CSM rules and strats. But at same time dont want to miss out on a cool Knight ally if its a good idea
>>93983671Chainglaives in particularFlamers aren't really a stated "thing" for NL but I've always associated Raptors with them
>>93983680Tbf burnas heads would look sick on something like that, could almost make it synthwave themed
>>93983671Shit, forgot my image. >>93983685What else was there?
>>93983455Imagining things about other men in your spare time is what homos do.
>>93983689Go for the LoS. It's pretty fun to build and use.
>>93983695Would be cool but sorry anon Blue Orks are the Best Orks
>>93983607>>93983580I might as well get involved in the trukkposting
>>93983680>40kstlThey're incredibly autistic about staying on-topic. If you said anything other than 40k STLs, even if it was advice about printing/stls, you get banned
>>93983680That group admins are pretty nazi about offtopic or posting external links, maybe it was that. Didn't know about the greenskins group, nice addition to my collection, ty.
Anyone play boarding actions? I don't think I have enough free time for a full army anymore but I'd like to get back into 40k in some way. Was thinking of starting with Kill steam, but I could see myself maybe trying boarding actions as well. I really want to build/paint some of the new von Ryan's leapers but sadly they're not legal for kill team, so maybe BAs would be a good place to utilize them?I threw together a quick list, do you all think this would be workable?
>>93983689Well you have me beat, I hate those fucking tracks and would choose the Knight just for that. But if you like both then LoS should have your legion special rule so better synergy.
>>93983707Could still work in a way, just make blue the dominant colour
>>93983674Not that many, you don't need to paint the pastes because they have a good color already. I wash them with 1:1 mix of brown and sepia washes, drybrush with cream colors(ushabti and screaming skull) and add some dry pigment to reinforce the arid look. It's mostly about the texture pastes though
>>93983699Why does he only have four claws on each hand instead of five?
>>93983709This Trukk looks a lot more like an "Orkaz Party Wagon" with that disco ball lol
>>93983719What are the nids equivalents for terminators? you should take that for boarding actions
>>93983711>>93983713Yeah, figures. at least I can still see crossposts and download files that way. I've been able to find anything I've needed in the greenskins group, luckily.>>93983709Kino. Scratchbuilt ork models are king, even if it's not blue.
>>93983731>blasting vengabus as they charge enemy positions
>>93983709>discorksHAHAHAHAKRUMPIN' DA GITSKRUMPIN' DA GITS
>>93983671This is basically it.
>>93983183>playing Alpha Legion>not using whatever rules you want and gaslighting your opponent on what chapter you're painted as
>>93983699They were big on glaves during the heresy
>>93983671Flensing knives? Just slap a few bones and flayed skin on any weapon and it will feel NL
>>93983641That's funny. How much did he pay for the rok?
>>93983691That falls under chain weapons, I'll try to print them in place of power weapons probably. I'll try flamers and meltas, already pretty much my thing. >>93983762Anything in the books perhaps?
>>93983726wolverine alignment. 3 blades between 4 knuckles
>>93983699https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Night_Lords_ArmouryIf you want guns specifically then the volkite cavitor seen on the bottom right is unique to them.
>>93983671They had a relic power weapon known as the Flayer in 9th edition
Black or gold decals on Blood Angels? Can't decide which I prefer. Gold looks more regal but black is far more brutal.
>>93983839black on normal dudes, gold on death company
>>93983806Snikt!
>>93983734Toughest thing they have for boarding actions is tyrant guard
>>93983866Dang forgot the profile

is it a bot.
>>93983731>>93983736>>93983748I do plan on doing this with the rest of my vehicles, gonna make a neon pink sign out of wire spelled WAAGH on one of them, probably not that trukk though. Need some party ork heads and torsos
>>93983904Yes.
Imagine the smell of a Tau woman after a full day of combat.
Is there a PDF of the new boarding actions book?
>>93983468The WGA Damned minis are in hard plastic. The tank example he gave is going to be in 3D printed resin.
>>93983992Yeh
>>93983975She probably still smells better than you.>Verification not required.
>>93984007May i see it?
>>93982634Go for proxy tanks
>>93984019No.
Commit the saga of Haarken Worldclaimer to heart.
>>93984060I don't read slop.
>>93984062He's the Herald of the Apocalypse, not the Purveyor of Slop. Get your facts straight.
I haven't bought the Killteam Hivestorm box. The Vespid with the stealth suit intrigues me. Is he meant to be some kind of Assassin character? Does it work as a lone operative?
>>93984080Haarken is slop.
>>93983793No idea, don't think it was much, but yeah he felt like it was scammy
Between plasteel, angelsteel, and strangesteel, which do you think is the more durable material?
>>93984230Wraithbone>but that wasn't an op-Wraithbone
>>93983455>WHAT COLOR IS YOUR BANEBLADE?!
>>93984244Wraithbone is still less durable than ceramite. You can tell because space marines wearing ceramite can easily smash wraithbone to smithereens.
>>93984025Damn, all the flat sides and angles on panzer 3/4 really lend themselves to 40kification
>>93984248I wonder what happened to the tank. Is the Imperium gonna put it in a museum? Feels appropriate.
>>93983726They are criminals, it's yubitsume.
>>93984252And Banshees wielding wraithbone can slash through ceramite armor like butter. But wraithbone is implied to be anle to be made as tough as needed by the singers, whereas there seems to be harder limits to.how strong Imperium-materials can be, or at they vary much less in quality than Wraithbone.Is this because Eldar exist almost solely to job and thus their material gets inflicted with the "too strong to win" curse hacks are so fond of? I do believe so.
>>93984297>And Banshees wielding wraithbone can slash through ceramite armor like butter.Banshees use power weapons. They cut good because their energy field severs molecular bonds.
>>93982874Fuck you too
>>93983109That legitimately sucks gkanon, take some time for yourself and have some fun hobbying

>>93983699A question to Night Lords fans: are those helmet batwings a mark of some rank or just something the whole legion does?
>>93984434They're meant to be spooky. And for catching on the tops of doorways when they enter a room.Name one thing scarier than someone having bat wings for ears?You can't

Be honest /40kg/, do you think you'll make it in life? Will you achieve the modern minimum success of 6'6" height, 10 inch penis, 6 figures, wife and kids, 2 cars, a house, a summer house and a boat or is there a small crusty appartment full of unpainted plastic in your future?
>>93984434The guys with the wings are allowed to go "BLEH"
>>93984380thanks, and its okay.. plenty of fish in the sea and all that. this stuff gets here tomorrow.
>>93984535I don't worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. But in the interim, I have custodes to paint. And that's enough for me.
>>93984555This is a sick mix of stuff for kitbashing, should be a blast to throw together some dudes out of them
>Drukhari are possibly one of the weakest and most irrelevant factions in the galaxy>They've also constantly placed at or near the top of every competitive tournament They're basically the Taliban, even if you kill most of them or their leader they'll just stay hiding and strike when the time comes.

Years ago, I used to love Chaos Space marines. Especially World Eaters, Nightlords, etc. Once I turned 14 though, all of that seemed much less attractive to me. Now that I'm an adult, Basically all of Chaos is way too edgy and child like to hold my attention, don't you all agree?
>>93984458>Name one thing scarier than someone having bat wings for ears?Women
>>93984535Well, I just hope I can finish my studies to get a degree and then a job.But currently even that doesn't look promising because the times are ass and no one wants to teach.
Why do they keep killing the imperial fist chapter masters?yes we have lysander and tor goradon for captains but they seem to replace the chapter master constantly for fists.
>>93984611>Women with bat wings for ears
>>93984627
>>93984594its toy soldiers m8, its meant to be child like and edgy
>>93984627>>Women with bat wings for earsThat's sexy, not scary.
>>93984611I'd honestly rather take my chances with a csm than talk to a woman. Not because I'm afraid but because I hate women and having to listen to one talk makes me wanna kill myself
>>93984626That happens to be their gimmick.IF chapter master die and need to be replaced.Seems like the Celestial Lions for whatever reason have inherited this flaw.
>>93984594The most childlike thing is trying to claim that one aspect of a hobby is for little kids but your current favorite part of the hobby is for grownups.
>>93984641>>93984676Can someone other than chaos-army having manchildren reply to me though?
>>93984594It's how I've always viewed chaos honestly. I just don't care for it because it is just one note and very boring. Also their models look ugly.
>>93984685>everyone that calls me on my retarded take is just a chaos shillCope and seethe. Pretending like your army is for grownups when it's all plastic spacemen toys is truly embarassing
>>93984478Yeah its too hot too. I'm going to have to wait a week before I can do anything
>>93984698>>93984685Samefag
>>93984535Lol naw, kids, wife, house(maybe, FUCK investment firms that buy housing) are doable. The rest doesn’t really matter dog. To be honest just having kids and raising them well means you’ve achieved all you were really meant to as a living thing.
>>93984594>edgyI love Nightlords because hey are explosively edgy, and they love doing it every single step of the way.Also because "in midnight clad" is such a cool concept.
>>93984719I've yet to see a warhammer player whose raised kids have their kids turn out normal and like 70% of the players at my lgs are dads
>Space Marine 2 recruit edition revealed>It is worse than the Target board game>It will probably cost MORE than the target board game because GW threw in some paints
>>93984719Unfortunately in my country you need most of those things already to be considered human by women so wife and kids are out. I'll settle on having a medium sized appartment filled with unpainted models.
is there any reason to take a melee carnifex when screamer killers exist?
>>93984721>Also because "in midnight clad" is such a cool concept.They're just cosplaying as bad weather.
>>93984766Just buy the target one. It's really only good for nids players who want gaunts anyways
>>93984594When I was a teen I thought Tau were the coolest.When I was poor and in my 20s I liked orks the mostNow that I'm in my 30s and can afford plastic men I collect CSM, I like the whole Imperium has fallen billion must die ethos.
>>93984434It's just something they do. It's not attributed to anything in particular. They're just like that, there's no "because."
>>93984737Normal is a pipe dream. My dad wanted a footballing playing jock, he got a nerd who had to be coerced into playing rugby and wrestling by threatening to not get any more books. Raising them well means at least equipping them to live life on their own terms without being complete retards and having reasonable empathy. Anything else is just a bonus.>>93984768Damn that sucks bro. My fiancé knew I was broke and had minimal prospects when we met and literally just fell for me because I liked to read and was witty enough to make her laugh when she needed it no matter the situation.
>>93984809Because it looks cool. Goteeem, checkmate and etc..
>>93984785I was hoping it would be more than fucking 1 space marine. Like damnit give newfags a proper squad or something, teach them about leaders and controlling more than 1 unit.
>>93983641Wall pieces are a grift. There wasn't enough wall to turn into the amount of souvenirs being sold.Why would you want one to begin with.I'd rebuilt that shit in a heart beat. Fuck berlin.
>>93984737Kids never turn out normal, evreyone is a freak in some way until your late 20s. Unless you're talking about actual developmental issues which is a whole other thing
>>93984594I've been a ĺoyalistfag since I was 10 years old. Still a loyalistfag 20 years later.Chaos is not cool, being good is.
>>93984766>11 tyranids>1 space marineWho the fuck is this for lmao
>>93984826They always do this shit. The actual learn to paint kit from 8th only had 2 marines iirc.
>>93984818I hate you and your zen.
>>93984844It’s just not fair.
>>93984818>just be funny and readI wish life was this easy for everyone.
>>93984826Buy an edition starter if you want marines. There's plenty of avenues for beginners to get marines.
>>93984831If chaos isn't cool then why CSM stands for Cooler Space Marines?Checkmate loyalists
>>93984856It wasn’t, I’m still ugly and starting to get fat.
>>93984651Get you a scourge girlfriendThey come in both angel and bat wing varieties.
>>93984839>what reads frog? (what does the frog read?)>10 books, which "vdochnovljait"? all good and nice person/people on (the) internet
>>93984868>He's ugly and STILL managed to get a bitchFUCK
>>93984830I am talking about legitimate developmental issues. 10 of the 15 kids raised by people from my LGS have advanced autism, 1 has down syndrome, 2 have anger management problems, 1 has tourettes, and the last one is in an electric wheelchair and he's like 8 years old or something. I wonder if it's something in the plastic glue
>>93984839>>93984766Thought this was a joke what the fuckhttps://www.warhammer-community.com/2024/09/24/warhammer-40000-space-marine-2-recruit-edition-brings-lieutenant-titus-to-the-tabletop/
>>93984866It stands for Cunty Space Marines.Because they keep complaining about the Imperium like they are karens.Especially Abaddon.
>>93984910They also serve absolute cunt
>>93984905>Lieutenant Titus gets charged by 10 Hormagaunts and fucking dies; the game
>>93984905Gotta clean that warehouse out of those dogshit gants that aren't selling.
>>93984839Someone who likes nids more than marines
>>93984418Have you heard the Word of Our Lord the Brush Surface Primer? It works all day every day. You want zenithal priming? Just drybrush it later with grey!
>>93984927Dunkelgrau, my beloved
>>93984905It's crazy to me that they sell this shit without ever mentioning that you need to prime your minis.
Anyone did any alternative paintschemes / kitbashes for the lord solar?With the new points and rules he is an auto include in every guard army since he can give orders to squadron and regiment unitsBut his blue, white and gold boxart just doesn’t fit in
>>93984932Or that you should hold off on gluing the arms to your miniatures if it's going to cover the chest and make it hard to paint it.
>>93984927No I haven't, I'll keep that in mind for future projects
>>93984941This one got me when I started. Thankfully it was only 1 mini in before I realised "Oh shit, that's hard to paint and I'm retarded"
>>93984937He's not supposed to fit in, he's a super fancy dude, he's supposed to stand out.
>>93984937Looks pretty good in krieg blue-grey with steel armor and gold trim
>>93984950I got ahead of myself and assembled everything, glued it together, primed it, and then when I picked up my brush I realized that I completely borked it all up. Those five marines are still sitting on my shelf, unfinished to this day.
>>93984932>>93984950I once was batch painting a bunch of guardsman and I was using a gray primer that you almost didn’t see and I forgot to prime once guardsmen and it was frustrating me so much that the paint kept chipping and not applying correctly, it took me a while before I realized I didn’t prime that one where I was already done painfully applying all base coats so I just finished and varnished it that way, it kinda works but it’s bad.
>>93984918If it's anything like the Target box game it's more like>10 Termagants Charge a Named Space Marine and Fucking Die: The Game.
>>93984969Weakness
>>93984905Weird to do this when they have models of other characters and countless close-enoughs for the ones they don't
>>93984975It's a board game for literal 7 year olds to point at while in target, get a handful of models, paint them poorly, and then play pretend with their friends using their batman playsets and their minis. Noone buying these is actually playing the game included
>>93984969I have 28 minis and 3 vehicles all fully assembled and I'm not stopping until they're all painted
>>93984995A 1/12 batman might as well be a primarch at this scale lmao
>>93984995Which further begs the question of why this isn't a normal battle box in the first fucking place. Like why can't it be Titus with a squad of Intercessors vs Termagants? Just do that and include datahseets. It's the most low effort cashgrab imaginable and they somehow managed to put in less effort, I swear this fucking company can't even be greedy right.
>>93984973>batch painting a bunch of guardsman and I was using a gray primer that you almost didn’t see and I forgot to prime once guardsmenMf the bases are a different colour than sprue plastic, as well as sprue plastic being glossy while sprays are satin. Your ass blind as hell
>>93984957Yeah i want to give him the gold trim and the red cape but I also want to keep the military green aesthetic so I am looking for inspiration>>93984966I was thinking gray uniform, green armor plates, burgundy leather and gold trim with the horse silver green and dark gray
>>93985014wet primer is glossy and not everybody's so dogshit at aiming that they get primer all over the base
Good Lord, what is happening in there?!
>>93985010Just wait until you realize they could have been selling full sets of fully assembled minis and rule/paint sheets to kids for years and they've never even attempted it.
>>93985014They weren’t basedI pin and glue them to the base after painting
>>93984590>>93984574thanks anons. the flagellants/cawdors are for a couple units I'm calling 'fanatics' to use in place of Navy Breachers. Basically a bunch of civilians the Inquisition has given guns to and told to go die for the Emperor. main chick in the Shadeborn is going to be my Lord Inquisitor with pic related as some of the parts I've planned out to use for her. will probably use the others as acolytes at some point.. maybe an assassin?
>>93985010>half a kill team of compendium intercessors vs half a kill team of compenidum nids using simplified rules and two to three pop-up mini ruins.As underwhelming as the Darktide game seems it at least is a serviceable introduction to the tabletop, why didn't they do that.
>Thousand SonsSpace Wolves>Word BearersUltramarines>Black LegionnUltramarines>World Eaters?>Emperor's Children?>Cheeto Kings?>Alpha Legion?>Iron WarriorsImperial Fists>Death GuardYour mom>Night Lords?Corvus hates lorgar but I've never heard of Raven Guard specifically hating Word Bearers, they have some unspoken rivalry with Alpha Legion but they don't seem like they hunt them across the universe. Dark Angels hate Dark Angels (Chaos).
>>93985010Because it needs to be at a price point that both new players/parents won't be intimidated by, but also be at a price point that longtime hobbyists are used to. So it's priced similarly to combat patrol margins for established hobbyists but is still around the same price as a new video game, so parents are more likely to pick it up
>>93985026The Eldar started a party that would never end. Now the elves are all gone but the party continues without them
>>93985026https://youtu.be/IJgg-Dva5iQ?si=q21zEaT52fA2MSX7
>>93985024You don't paint over wet primer, also you need to prime their feet too secondary kun. And their feet are attached to the base
>>93985038I dunno ask /hhg/
>>93985055>Now the elves are all goneThe ones who started the part are still there. They just had a change in outfit.
>>93985038world eaters despise ultramarines because the planet angron was mutilated on was sanctioned in the ultramar sectorspace wolves despise world eaters for mogging them at close combat and almost killing their furfag primarch
>>93985038Raven Guards should hate Word Bearers because they're the ones that opened fire at them during the Dropsite Massacre leading to their primarchs duking it out, but I don't know if it's referenced later on beyond the Lorgar and Corax grudge.
>>93985026Uh... A Rift that leads into the Immaterium!? In this millennium, In this century, in this part of the Imperium, localized entirely within your system?
>>93985065>their feet are attached to the basenoobtheir feet have a cut off piece of paper clip drilled and glued in and they are stuck in a winecork
>>93985026>the new chaos sorcerer qween kills the Emperor because you dont send a chudboy to do a girlboss' job>terra becomes a warp rift>leads to the emperors new domain, the Emperors table(tm) >Big E becomes chaos god of righteous hatred or some shitYou know it will happen
>>93985038Alpha Legion has a rivalry with Raven Guard, Ultramarines, and Dark Angels.
>>93985035Other guys would make sweet assasins or more specialized operatives. Been meaning to pick up a necromunda warband and some aos dudes to throw stuff together like pic related
>>93985118Actually Alpha Legion has a rivalry with chaos, they are deep undercover still serving the Emperor
>>93985105>noobProjection. Just because you're unable to paint/base around feet doesn't make it an impossible task. Most people prime on their bases
>>93985161Post hole
There's a local shop in my city that has 13 Leviathan boxes at retail price still (around 250 usd give or take a couple dollars due to currency exchange), thinking of buying and reselling all of them on ebay
>>93985167Sure but there's a sorcerer guarding it
>>93985103Yes!
>>93985161>boots full of glue residue and dust piecesYeah
>>93985178No, the other hole
>>93985191>There's dirt on the boots of a man running through a warzone Yeah sometimes
>>93984905Titus doesn't even look like the game model either :/
>>93985191People's shoes get dirty when they go outside, anon.
>>93985037Why didn't they make this into a kill team anyways, it's basically what it is, just double the sprue and you're good to go.
>>93985227No, I don't think so
>>93985215>>93985227Yeah, not when I am doing concrete based for my urban camo guards
>>93985129neat conversion idea there yeah. this dude did another banger too if you want inspiration.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3A97JR_n20
>>93985246You don't have any urban camo guard
>>93985161>>93984818Do you faggots just tag eachother in and out or something?
>>93985263Yeah I primed my fingers graynoob doesn’t even pin his minis lol
>>93985246You are aware that concrete is just as dirty and covered in dust as any other rock that's outside
Absolute beginner question, is it super gay to play the Ultramarines?
>>93985277>Yeah I primed my fingers gray>noob doesn’t even pin his minisYou didn't do either of these things
Abaddon is a spider?
>>93985288Online people might take a jab at you, in person noone will ever say anything besides complimenting your minis.
>>93985299madboy mad cause he never thought about not immediately glueing his mini to a base>>93985280In soviet russia maybe, proper civiled urban areas maybe have some dogshit but not Dubai levels of sand on the street
help I'm fucking retarded and can't find a good torrent site for The Exodite or Iron Within. I used solidtorrents for H&B and Angels of Death, but I'm fucking worthless finding new sites! I'm too poor to pay for the warhammer+ sub! I'm sorry GW! <:^(
>>93985288Not if you paint them well.
why is it that very often when there's a meltdown in this thread lamentits is involved somehow
>>93985276uh oh nomodels melty
Alpha legion is cool and I wish they had proper modelsAtleast the night lord bros got something
>>93985300Nah that's just biologists are insufferable nerds
>>93985315You've never touched a base or glue before
>>93985315your guard aren't fighting in civil urban areas
>>93985288First space marine game got me into 40k and I liked ultramarines sinceWho cares what randoms say online anon, slap rowboat girlyman on the table and purge some heretics
>>93985335
>>93985315Dubai would be a cool place for a 40k battle
>>93985315>In soviet russia maybe, proper civiled urban areas maybe have some dogshit but not Dubai levels of sand on the streetThis is someone who has never gone outside before
>>93985038EC with Iron Hands. Death Guard with White Scars. Night Lords with Dark Angels. That's all based on campaigns in the Heresy.
>>93985335It’s tradition!
>>93985348stay mad, you probably use the citadel cuckstick for priming too>>93985352tau propaganda
>>93985375I didn't realize spunchbob was wit the shkreets like that
>>93985380You've never primed a mini tourist kun. You could prove us wrong by posting models but we all know you don't have any lmaooo
>>93985387What the FUCK did you mean by this
>>93985373sorry I live in a place with clean streets and functioning city services>>93985372spec:ops the line kinda scenario with the city buried under sand
>>93985183Can you close it?
>>93985399Oh yeah? Where do you live? Exactly. Give me your address.
I prime my bases at the same time as models but not while there glued to the base, makes it easier to do texture or environmental basedBlue tack is the best hobby supply
>>93985405No.
>>93985399Go outside and lick the road and then post a pic of your tongue afterwards since you apparently live in candyland
>>93985407Tideliusgatan 12, Stockholm
>>93985415
>>93985380>citadel cuckstickgot a chuckle out of me
>>93985425Damn, that’s why people don’t wear white shoes
>>93984060>He has yet to be proven wrongWasn't he proven wrong on Vigilus, the campaign for which he was invented?Also, lmao at him joining Abbadon for the promise of nothing but some nebulous notion of wounding of the Imperium. He literally does it for free.
>>93985374>not night lords and blood angelswhat are you? retarded?
>>93985449You've never owned a pair of white sneakers if you think they never get dirty from walking on concrete
>>93985469You could do that one too. Night Lords spent like half the heresy fighting with Dark Angels though.
>discord fags coming up with elaborate ways to derail the thread>thread derails on its own over fucking dirt on minis feet
>>93985473They never get dirty to the point that they cease to be white sneakers, they do not get a layer of dust, they do not get brown, they do not have little pebbles glued to them, some pebbles stuck in the sole? Yeah but they do not get the kind of dirt and tear you get on trekking shoes, at all.It’s also completely unacceptable to wear dirty shoes to the office too.
>>93985506Ya gotta love it.
>>93985506>space marines>fight in the vacuum of space>with zero gravity>somehow they are supposed to have dirt in their shoesjust a cope by people who besmirched their minis
>>93985506I don’t know, I think the point is valid, you shouldn’t glue them to the base before priming if you intend to do nice bases.
I have about 300 points of Space Marine models from a starter box and a sprue of infernus marines a friend gave to me for 15 bucks. Could I top off my list to 1k with the old Blood Angels Combat Patrol and the current Space Wolves CP? This isn't really a matter of viability just a matter of "I want a new team and my LGS still has the old blood angels box lying around"
>>93985526Even gold shoes get dirty man.
>>93985526You definitely don't go outside if you've never had white shoes get dirty. Here's your last you nomodels
i haven't played since primaris were announcedare manlet marines dead
>>93985572If it all adds up to 1000 pts and you like the models I don't see why not. It won't be meta but chasing meta is for faggots
>>93985592Not quite. You can still proxy with a bit of imagination and recently an all firstborn list got top 3 at a GT.
>>93985592They're still around. They haven't got any new models designated for 40k but they've refreshed a bunch of the manlet patterns in HH so if you wanted to run a full force of short kings you definitely could
>>93985592We get some termies every now and then.
>>93985574Sallyanon is king
>>93985581>anon lives in a dirty place, uses public transport and/or doesn’t take care of his stuffdon’t join the military if you keep looking for excuses to have dirty shoes>>93985574Sorry Sally, we pin models to the base after priming here
>>93985526I feel like you're 18 and you've never had a job or had to take public transit. >>93985592You'll see them locally still. Lots of people still like them. You'll even see old base sizes still.
>>93985572at a casual glance i think you're just a little bit short points wisethe old combat patrol is like 425ish pointsi dunno what the infernus marine sprue is
>>93983600thank you anon. seeing this gave me an epiphany on my thousand sons scheme
>>93985637I’ve literally only ever done that for Vulkan when I put him on the dead gargoyle. You only need pins if the base is unsteady. I’ve done everything else priming on base with a light gluing, I take them back off sometimes to do the base but usually paint around them.
>>93985608>an all firstborn list got top 3 at a GTbro probably felt like HIM pulling that shit off. walking around like his dick just grew a couple sizes.
>>93985608>>93985623>>93985645i mean lorewise did any of them canonically refuse crossing the rubiconi know initially they said the conversion rate had horrible loses but now i can't seem to find itit just seems idiotic to risk all these veteran supermen and end up losing half of them to make them better supermen>>93985628are termies all manlets still? or do they just handwave and say you can cram primaris marines into termie armor now
>>93985526Yourdudes are not walking through Tokyo bud, they're walking through Gaza. Yes they get dirtied to all fuck.
>>93985399I live in filthadelphia. We're dirty here>>93985161>>93985276Affirmative
>>93985680Their shoes tell a different story.
>>93985686>I live in filthadelphia. We're dirty hereyuuuuurp
>>93985678>i mean lorewise did any of them canonically refuse crossing the rubiconThat's probably up to the chapters after accepting the initial recruits and changing how they create new marines.
>>93985608Which event was this?
>>93985678They fixed the rubicon surgery after they got some more data from the first couple thousand attempts, it’s still kinda dangerous but 8/10 survive now. I dunno if any characters have outright refused it since then. Primaris has been removed as a keyword so only armour make matters. Theoretically terminators could be either firstborn or primaris.
>>93985433NTA but I live quite close by. Want to play a game?
>>93985692A story that they're out of place in the setting yeah
>>93985717Dicing death II GT.He got second place. And I was wrong, he has some of the new jump pack marines in it. But it’s mostly tac marines vanvets and rhinos.
>>93985686Best what? BEST WHAT!?
>>93985765Best lictor in the swarmTry to spot it
huh, neat. if you just glue the tyrannofex guns tubes together with the arms in the sockets, the tension is enough to keep em in place, but the tubes are springy enough that you can just pop em out when you want to switch. works with both the big gunsno magnets required
what the heck happened to assault squadstacticals and devastators and scouts still existwait what the fuck happened to sniper scouts
>>93985686Yerrrr, qt scouts anon
>>93985804I wouldn't rely on tolerances to hold bits in place. Magnets are cheap enough that there's really no reason to do anything else for swappable weapons
>>93985806You should learn what all the punctuation marks do and then try this shitpost again
>>93985686Can I get a better pic of the missile scout? Also god I miss the camo cloaks.
>>93985848no
Still reeling from my agrax spill yesterday. Can't bring myself to paint out of shame that I wasted 7/8ths of a pot.
>>93985881What a very specific fraction. Are you German?
>>93985881Agrax has fallen, dozens of pennies must be spent..
>>93985881I invested in a big bag of plastic chinesium pipettes for transferring contrast paints to my airbrush and found them very useful for picking up the majority of a spill. Knocked over prolly 6-7 pots of contrast paints and washes and always manage to recover about 75% off my work surface by sucking it up bit by bit via pipette
>>93985900Uwot
>>93985926Uwu
>>93985900No, I just spend too much time looking at a tape measure>>93985904And a 15$ air freight fee...
>>93985947>And a 15$ air freight fee...Did they send it over in a personal helicopter? The fuck?
What are you working on 40kg? I'm trying sub assemblies for a change
>>93985960Private jet with complementary champagne
>>93985960I mean I could order it from amazon with free shipping but it take ~2 months because ocean freight (if it even makes it, still waiting on my vajello black and white paints I ordered in august). Being an island nigga has its downsides.
>no models shitposters have just been replaced with a salamander autist who can't paint for shit and the rest of his discord I miss the secondaries at this point
>>93985991Christ. At that point just take the oilpill, it's got to be easier to source
>>93985991Oceania?
>>93985960>>93985979
>>93985075Didn't GW add some lore recently that implied Slaanesh and the Keepers were all actually ascended Eldar from the cult of pleasures? Something about comparing the Emperor's potential ascension to Chaos Godhood to the birth of Slaanesh?
93985995you aren't subtle
40k is too popular and successful. I need 40k to be a niche hobby for autistic fathers produced by a failing company
>>93986020Neither are your highlights, thin your paints
>>93985995Maybe you'd be better off on another site for nomodels if modelposters tilt you that hard
>>93986008US Virgin Islands :^)
>>93985995Don’t worry I’m going on a break in a few days for… well a few days. And I honestly don’t know the other model posters. Sorry we’re not a secret cabal of people trying to fuck up your good time that you and so many other people seem to want. Only other random weirdos who just can’t quit this stupid fucking website after over a decade of autism and amusement who have bad opinions.
>>93986025Try Age of Sigmar or the Old World for that.
>>93986041>Anon's paint is at risk of rogue wave
>>93986041JUSTI'm sorry that you must go through such hardships
>>93986043The idea that model posters are actually the ones shitting up the board is so absurd that I genuinely don't know how many levels of irony he thinks he's posting on.
>>93986040>iposteditagain.jpg
>>93986038I don't do edge highlights, schizo-kun~
>mention that avatarfagging even with models is gay >dick sucking of each other continues Just be anonymous and post models you attention seeking faggots, this is the only general with this issue.
>>93986025Hipster contrarianism is fucking gay. Go play one of the other dead games if something being popular is that damaging to your opinion of it. It doesn't make you cooler or more interesting as a person because you partake in a niche hobby
>>93986079uh oh secondary melty
>>93986079It's only an issue if you don't have models to post and get upset about modelposters
god I fucking hate this thread so much, how do I leave I always come back no matter how hard I try

>>93986094chaplains don't actually worship the emperor and that's not ok
I hope the rumors about Corsairs getting a detachment and a wave of releases akin to Harlequins is true. They’re the coolest faction in the setting
>>93986118>>93986112Laughing whores mind
>>93986126Okay
>>93986055The rogue wave in question, james workshop brush was the only casualty>>93986000Not sure which grade of oil to use, I have 5W-20 and 0W-30 on hand. I think I'll just mix some brown in some nuln oil and work on the eightbound tonight.
>>93986127>the rumors about Corsairs getting a detachmentRenegade Raiders already exists :)
>>93986126>secondary mad about the fluff that has been the same for decadesLmao
>>93986127>wave of releases akin to HarlequinsSo literally nothing? Sounds pretty plausible
>>93986126It'd be funny if chaplains were the only marines in a chapter that worship the emperor as god, warranted by the Imperium as necessary for chapter loyalty, and all the other marines begrudgingly put up with them screaming about the God Emperor
>>93986144>I have 5W-20 and 0W-30You cheeky fellow
>>93986152Harlequins got a wave of shit like 10 years ago is what I meant
>>93986146Marines are nowhere near as cool as Corsairs.
>>93986162Corsair are just red and black chaos space marines, there's nothing unique about their aesthetic really and therefore nothing to release
>>93986168They are marines though? What an odd thing to say
are we getting a non kill team box for the new scout models?
>>93982874Are those classic jump packs on primaris marines, anon?
>>93986187>Lust_provoking_Image.png
>>93985971nothing til my new stuff gets here tomorrow
>>93986154>techmarines are marines trained by the mechanicum to maintain equipment and maybe spy on the chapter for mars>chaplains are not marines trained by the ecclesiarchy to maintain spiritual integrity and maybe spy on the chapter for terra
>>93986188Yeah. I had them lying around. About half the squad is firstborn. Over half when I get the other 5 with heresy jump packs done.
>>93986187
>>93986170>>93986172There’s only one Corsairs you fucking morons. And it’s not the Reds, it’s the Anhranthe
>>93986198when you put it like that, it does seem a little weird
>>93986187>Slaanesh tempts even the most devout of Imperial citizens
>>93986206and yet, they're named the Red Corsairs. Curious...
>>93986112>encounter alien women whom whole purpose in life is to breed with local men to produce alien horrors>they still are laughing at youWhy live?
I am getting my shit rocked by custodes at the moment.
>>93986198Librarians are marines trained by navis nobilitae to do magic and maybe spy on the chapter for the navigators?
>>93986206Damn that's crazy how noone cares about gay elves
>>93986206Who?
>>93986230Apothecaries are marines trained by Guard medicae to do medicine and maybe spy on the chapter for Gary the squad medic
>>93986206It's the Freebooterz!
>>93986227Hopefully they have fat tits so you at least have something to look at while they're slamming your ass in mating press
>>93986206>There’s only one Corsairs you fucking morons.The Gellerpox mutants?
>>93986274You got eyes in the back of your head or some shit?
>>93986224Most realistic 40k fanart to be conceived
>>93986285No anon just the normal eyestalks we all have haha right
>>93986230need a custom chapter where every officer is actually a spy for some organization and everyone knows every other officer is a spy, but no one is willing to blow their cover. They've been trying to out manuever one another for centuries but nobody's managed to do it without outing themselves yet
>>93986296haha yeah, carry on brother
>>93986296Ah, of course.
>>93986326Gee billy, two cattle prods?
>>93986342There's Ambulls in that fortress man
>>93986300That's just alpha legion
You'd figure GW would have made at least one other melee Tau suit variant by now to squad up with Farsight. Seems like free money for them.
for a snow base is the simple method just mixing elmers glue, white paint, and baking soda?
>>93986429Tau aren't allowed to fight in hand to hand for obvious reasons
>>93986439Baking soda yellows over time so I'd advise picking up a proper snow paste
>>93986439I just put glue on my base and rattle it around in some snow. Looks great and costs practically nothing.
>>93986429Crisis suits with Onager Gauntlets would sell like hot cakes
>>93986429I would have liked to see GW continue to make relic bits packs like they did for Black Templars. It would have been cool to see an official design for the Onager Gauntlet.
>>93986439AKI snow best snow
>>93986429making a farsight enclave exclusive unit wouldn't make it sell as much as another normal tau unit and handing a melee option to normal tau in general would undervalue the schtick farsight hasthe solution would be an experimental battlesuits team dual kit with some of the options being exclusive to the farsight enclave, but gw has other priorities
>>93986449cant you just seal it so it doesnt yellow?
>>93986429Tau don't do well in melee range
>>93986583No clue, I'd imagine it would still yellow from uv. Would be better off either using a snow basing mix or a white powdered grout mixed with cheapo white paint
>>93986041At least the weather and scenery is probably nice
>>93986590world eaters dont do well at shooting but that doesnt mean they dont still have access to land raiders, predators, hellbrutes, and forgefiends40k isnt age of shitmar, its armies arent one trick memes. every army can do everything, they just do it in different ways. GW needs to get with the times and give tau some melee suits
>>93986647Space marines get to be good at everything because they're the protagonists and antagonists of the IP. Side characters get to be one trick ponies because they do not matter
>>93986442>>93986590this is like bragging that tyranids suck in combat because a marine managed to catch a termagant by the tail.
>>93983596>>93983608>>93983611A coat of paint and a base and I think this will turn out alright
>>93986669I'm a retard
>>93986667Please post an example of a non farsight tau doing anything impactful in combat
>>93986647>world eaters dont do well at shootingKhorne willing they'll get back that lovely Crimson Killer relic pistol when they get their full codex
>>93986227Yeah, that was definitely one of the more one-sided games I've played. We ended it at the top of turn 3 with me only having some Boyz and a trukk left, and I killed a grand total of 4 models (the dreadnaught didn't die after 2 rounds of this combat).
>>93986677Maybe a big smoked ham/turkey or a box of cigars could be a cool addition
>>93986682Oh fucking wait they don't do relic weapons anymore never fucking mind I'm a fool god damn it how ignominious
>>93986683>unpainted minis>not even fully fucking glued together minis at thatI'm so sorry that happened to you, man.
>>93986683That telemons elbow be doing some crazy shit
>>93982634There is something very endearing about that turret silhouette. But the regular lemon russ looks baller too, especially the new 30k one. Id go either way. Whats that from btw?
>>93986665not just space marines. look at necrons; they can shoot, they can fight, they can lean into speed or slow tanky bricks. look at tyranids; disposable hordes or elite monsters, gun bugs or screamer killers, flyers, tunnelers, scouts. look at genestealer cults; hordes of idiots with AK47s or genespliced mutant retards that can bend a truck in half with their bare hands, hit and run ambushers or muscle bound brawlers, mass infantry or rapid skirmishing dirt bikes and dune buggies. pretty much every army in the game is able to field almost every role in the game, they just function differently in each army playing into their unique quirks, even the nuns got nundams and shield sisters to shore up their melee bruiser slots
>>93986429They had a good thing when tank shock was based on strength. But I dont want a melee unit honestly unless it's a crisis suit upgrade exclusively for farsight enclaves.
>>93986683Not really walking away from the game with a bad taste in my mouth, though. The guy with the custodes is one of the nicest players at the store and he even paid for my drinks afterwards.I'm still tapping my fingers waiting for the balance dataslate to throw Orks a bone.>>93986701I'm used to it at this point. There's maybe 1 other player at the store with a fully painted army (being generous)
>>93986725>There's maybe 1 other player at the store with a fully painted army (being generous)Blueorkanon deserves better
>>93986691That's a good idea for base decoration tbf. A box of premium Iho-sticks
>>93986701Oh and to his credit, the models he has painted are very nice. I'm a sucker for white and gold schemes.
>>93986739Very common thing. I have a painted army and one that's about 70% done and rarely do I ever play against something painted. If it is painted, it's either a partially done list or parts of each model.Dads be busy. Everyone else gets teased about it.

>>93987172Ork release actually
>>93987078How old is your runelord pot, mine was barely 11months old by the time it separated into brass silly putty and a strange milky fluid
>>93987063vgc washes taste dreadful. they smell nice, but the smell is a lie. ye been warned
>>93987190My current pot is about that old and is starting to separate now. I normally go through a pot of it before it does that but I've more or less caught up with my backlog (for the army that uses it at least) so I haven't had that happen until recently.
>>93987172Probably just a tease, not even a full model reveal
>>93987063citadel contrast paints taste like ass, especially the red ones
>>93987172I will literally pre-order the EC box twice if it has a new daemonic Lucius model and battleline noise marines.>I don't even play mainline 40k
>>93986196>>93986216But have they actually announced anything for them? Any chance we get new scout bikes too?
>can't shoot from far away because lone op>can't shoot close because stealth fucks your hit rolls>can't move block it because infiltrators>can't charge it because Fights Firsthow the fuck do you kill this thing
>>93987276To my knowledge? Fucking nothing.
>>93987172Lol nothe stream is "chaos themed" because they've got to announce a skaven warband for underworlds, a limited edition chaos sorcerer, and they have to try and hype the a chaos book for aos
>>93987333I'd laugh really hard if the 40k reveal was just a mini of the villain of space marine 2
>>93987364I'd like that but would be annoyed if that was it
>>93987321Damn, I like scouts but I really dont want to pay so much
>>93987364Careful, Anon. Saying awful things like that speaks them into existence.
>>93987364the name for the chaos sorcerer isn't imurah
>>93987364To me the biggest joke so far is that the only new mini we've got is ANOTHER Primaris Lieutenant
>>93987431>10 companies>2 LTs per companyWe get closer everyday
>>93987431Thank you James
>decide today is the day I start painting>realize I don't know how to startHow do I hold the minis while spraying?
>>93987526wear disposable gloves or stick them to something like a ruler with bluetack or double sided tape or superglue and hold that
>>93987526By the scruff of the neck, like a misbehaving cat
>>93987282Drive a vehicle into it
>>93987526Get a flat long stick, like the ones for mixing paint. Stick some blu-tack or other putty to the bottom of the base and press it on to the stick. Otherwise just put one some gloves and hold it by the base rim.

i skimmed the new witchhunter codex and damn theres some actual good art in there. Its a shame the rules are going to shit because this is leagues better than 8th
>>93987282Flamethrowers or damage 2 melee specialists.
what would a good weapon for a blank be? like something that works with a blank's null powers, since i imagine most psychic weapons like force weapons wouldnt work
>>93987862a gun
>>93987862Flamethrowers and/or swords.Blank powers have a short radius.
>>93987862Blanks can't channel their powers like psykers. They just work around them.Jurgen uses a melta, which is about as devastating as a simple man-portable weapon gets.
>>93987862The only real blank-specific weapon is the Anima Speculum and that's not something any random Joe is gonna have
