Yeah, a new Red Gobbo. The Youtube rumor guy says next Kill Team box set will be Orks vs Ratlings and Ogryns, so could be something there. Beyond that, no.

But next year you'll probably get at least an Ironjawz character you can kitbash
>>
>>94031075
No. They've already confirmed that there'll be no new releases besides BA. Also orks don't sell as well as Space Marines so our chances were already slim. Just buy some 3rd party stuff if you want new orks.

Is this the worst end of the year GW has ever done? A shit release 4 months before the end of the year and then just nothing for the game until next year. I can't think of a worse way to end the year for 40k considering we lost a bunch of good kits and the replacement kits are almost all demonstrably worse with the exception of some of the characters.

They're too safe. They need to double down with more grotesque and gimp-like flesh crafts, more slaves and less clothing. I think they should do some lore blurb about them having to do more and more horrific shit to stay out of slaanesh grasp so we get a bigger prescence for them in the setting. Instead of just raiding they should be making temporary torture worlds and other complex rituals in bigger and bigger fashion.

progress on alpha legion so far, after trying 3 different paints to get something close to their color i found 1 i at least kinda like, i need to keep testing shit to figure out how to get this stuff properly consistent and not so splotchy or dark, the videos i watched of people using army painter speed stuff said its fine to leave pools and once it dries all the darker spots should fade, still not happy with how they look but its better then before
maybe i just need to stop being dogshit at painting

SoB - Started last year and got the main body of the army done. This year has been the specialist squads with Sacrescants, 15 Seraphim and 3 Paragons. Hoping to get the 15 remaining Seraph done before the years end and start on the zephy as well.
IG - 20 guardsmen, 1 Sentinel. Only started them this year.
Eldar - One Wraithlord. With five Wraithguard done last year, I may actually get my first 500pts done before 2027.
AOS FS - 30 Dorfs. Started them this year.
CoS - 20 Steelhelms (Bretonnia Footknights). Started them this year.
Quar - The 24 in the starter box.
Also a bunch of Dr Who minis I picked up for cheap.

I started this year still just updating my old models with a brighter blue.
Since then I've updated my blue scheme with an even brighter paint, added another highlight, and played around with and found a good way to do battle damage that I enjoy. I'd say I've done quite a bit of progress this year.
I've also painted a good 80ish Boyz while doing so

Anyway, here's a Kustom snazzwagon that I made. I've got around half of the same kit to make a third which I'll tackle at some point.

Considering I only started warhammer last year in september, quite a lot Id say. Not as much as I'd have liked, but I took it slowly. I never imagined when I started that I could paint this guy quite as good as he turned out. Here's to many more years.

maybe Ill even get to play an actual game of 40k sometime

Same reason that if Russ had succeeded in killing Magnus and turned up on Terra with his head for dad, Big E would have congratulated him.
>>
>>94031395
Perfect, thank you. I'm surprised he's only 50 bucks for the huge chunk of points he represents, but that's probably because people don't like working with resin, right? It'll be my first time working with it so I'll get to see what the issue is.

Followed the lore and the general tabletop rules for like 5 years now. Covid hit and my local game store stopped hosting right before I wanted to finally start building an army. Never felt there was a good time to get in after that. Finally 10th ed is out and SM2 dropped and I decided now was a good time to just dive in since there will be a bunch of new players and I could do decently well with my knowledge against people who have just discovered 40k TT, so bought a combat patrol.
>>
>>94031402
E would have wanted to know how Russ fucked up so badly as to confuse alive and dead.
I mean he did give clear orders to Horus to tell Russ to bring Magnus in for questioning after Magnus told E that Horus was a traitor. How could there be any confusion?
>>
>>94031431
Oh shit oh fuck what now should I just kill him or oh wait I like this one "GOOD JOB RUSS THAT'S TOTALLY WHAT I WANTED REMIND ME WHO RELAYED THOSE CHANGED ORDERS AGAIN and also how powerful a psyker are you - not at all? okay great just sit in this chair I need to check something"

They're functionally immortal human characters which means they can realistically traverse the galaxy for centuries and your favorite characters can appear in several battles across time and space without suspending disbelief.

All the other human factions are constrained to more realistic human lifespans so they have less named characters or they have to do some weird writing.

Mate, its going to be expensive unless you luck out at a garage sale. Either buy it or print it. You're not getting it for cheap.

>finally cracks, starts making imaginary friends out of rocks and inanimate objects
>in his rambling naming, he somehow independently says the true name of a Lord of Change, binding it to his will as a slave

It feels like not a lot, cause ive been jumping around a lot but I have been managing to put in an hour of hobby time a day which feels pretty good. Right now I'm working on magnetizing up my hammerhead, but I also made a really cool actuating sicaran turret, so when you move the guns the lazer targeter also moves. Almost done building up a squad of pathfinders, and have made a handful more space marines.

I just write notes here and there and explore ideas I come up with. I don't actually play tabletop so it isn't like much will come of it anyways outside of sitting in notepad docs.

On the subject of OC chapters though, how difficult would it be for a loyalist chapter to hide mutations from unstable geneseed? I know that there is the 5% geneseed tithe that has to be paid to Mars every unspecified period of time. When geneseed is harvested from a Marine, is an entire progenoid gland extracted or is it just milked for whatever is inside of it? Do the Inquisition turn up to a chapter themselves just for the sake of giving them an inspection to see if anything strange is about?
The chapter idea I've been toying with is a cursed founding chapter that had a very mild aesthetic mutation that was considered kosher, developed an extremely prideful mindset and after however many generations have started to suffer very bizarre physical mutations that seem to get worse as a marines age.

What are the implications of finecast to someone who knows nothing about it?
>>
>>94031954
Damaged models with lots of air holes, flash, mold lines, and warping. Molds that were finecast only were not so bad but still had issues, but molds that were metal and became finecast were quite unacceptable.
>>
>>94031954
Now? GW doesn't disclose which models are finecast anymore but there's almost no metal-to-finecast models for sale, I'm not autistic enough to tell you which ones are but it's certainly not something to worry about.
>>
>>94031011
Timmy can't self insert into anything that isn't buzz lightyear space man

>>94031954
Finecast is warpier than magnus, you can't tell what's excess and what's model. They're even uglier than metal, somehow. Originally it was filled with bubbles, probably still is, I don't know. It was also another middle finger "Hey bro this will make EVERYTHING cheaper, promise, lol, jokes, everything is the same or more expensive, but boy did we make money.". There were necrons that didn't even fit in the packaging it was shipped in, so they just bent them.
>>
>>94031859
Ehh, it's a mixed bag. The true names of Daemons are typically depicted as being, like, not normal sounds. They're crazy Chaos sounds that hurt the throat. If you want to keep the accidental fall angle, maybe he was trying to banish the Daemon and ended up containing it instead? So now he's got this fuckin Daemon and isn't happy but realizes he can use it's power and from there it's a quick slide into going from SM to CSM
The talking to rocks and stuff is a bit too zany. Maybe if you presented it as like, a form of animism? He believes objects have spirits and was talking with the spirits. Kind of an off shoot of the Space Wolves belief that Fenris has a spirit. Or how the Imperium believes in machine-spirits. Maybe like, he talked to inanimate objects and the Chapter tolerated it as an eccentricity, but then grew concerned when he started acting like they were answering back.
I do like the idea of a rogue Librarian with immense power who has just attracted this ragtag warband to him. That's a pretty great hook for a CSM warband.
But the silly stuff, personally, I'm not a fan of.

You did, anon. As you asked: All imperial knights are brainwashed retards too stupid to understand fear.

>>94032490
Then you should buy knights secondhand. They're the army most likely to be magnetized so you just have to repaint some armour panels to make them /yourdudes/

Thanks for the feedback! I get you're not a fan of the silly stuff, but to each their own. I wanted what you said - a rogue Librarian turned Sorcerer-Lord who became as such through sheer coincidence attracting a warband.
>The true names of Daemons are typically depicted as being, like, not normal sounds. They're crazy Chaos sounds that hurt the throat. If you want to keep the accidental fall angle, maybe he was trying to banish the Daemon and ended up containing it instead?
I do want it accidental yes, but how would he accidentally utter it's true name by banishing it? Maybe I can figure out away this works as I'm writing.
>The talking to rocks and stuff is a bit too zany. Maybe if you presented it as like, a form of animism? He believes objects have spirits and was talking with the spirits. Kind of an off shoot of the Space Wolves belief that Fenris has a spirit. Or how the Imperium believes in machine-spirits. Maybe like, he talked to inanimate objects and the Chapter tolerated it as an eccentricity, but then grew concerned when he started acting like they were answering back.
This happens post-desertion, as in long after he went AWOL/MIA during the tyranid battle. But I do like the idea of it being tolerated within his chapter until it started getting a bit too weird.
>I do like the idea of a rogue Librarian with immense power who has just attracted this ragtag warband to him. That's a pretty great hook for a CSM warband.
Again, thank you.

None of this helps you make any modeling decisions, so it's utter dog ass. Unless you're going to hold your opponent at metaphorical/literal gunpoint while you sperg out and tell them your short story, then there's never going to be a moment that people will hear about your lore.

I'm only anti /yourdudes/ if their "lore" doesn't make their dudes unique visually in some way. Doesn't even have to be an enormously impactful visual change, but to type out a short story that is totally meaningless and does nothing to make your guys interesting visually feels like an utter waste of time for both the person writing it, and anyone forced to listen to it.

Basically the recreation of a Tech Priest remade in 'nid soup by the Malstrain Patriarch. Think he was on Necromunda to study the fucked up genestealers, and died in the process. Now he's the in-hive genetic scientist or something.

Barely any. A single elite mini and one vehicle. My year was filled with me moving to a new start and going back to college.

Anyone got any ideas for a priest of the Dark Mechanicum model? I want one for my Warband, instead of a Warpsmith, to explain the maintenance of vehicles and arms.

Honestly I might just end up going the chaos squat route instead.

More animalistic features on the prosthetics like claws and fangs, daemonic faces on exhausts.

Great project anon, I'd love to do an inquisition force one day when done with other projects. The flagellant kit is amazing for kitbashing. I hope they never get rid of it. It gets a lot of use outside of the system too with stuff like Turnip28.
>>
>>94033016
Experiment with a spare base and some blister plastic if you're uneasy buying styrene, but you can never really go wrong with too much plasticard on hand
>>
>>94032964

aside from greenstuff you could put a fine mesh on the base and/or use a junior hacksaw to cut panel shapes out (I've done the later to make marble slab bases for my EC)

You've given my a very vivid flashback to being a child and thinking the texture of the GW bases looked like an industrial walkway so my solution for a Sentinel base was just to thickly dapple on boltgun metal and some brown bits onto the base to make a perfectly realistic walkway. It was the green bases era so it was ok I guess
>>
What are you working on? Tried any new techniques recently? I did some stubble for the first time on this Drookian Scion proxy and was surprised at how easy it was.
>>
>>94033243

I've got a pack of spare bases for just such an occasion. As for plasticard, I'll just inevitably steal something from work - we've bundles of blank ID cards that have been sitting on a shelf longer than I've been employed. At least worth a try before shelling out for the real deal.

>>
>>94033269
painting the termagants that came in the board game. space marine 2 got me into the franchise after having a casual interest in the franchise for a long time and when I was at Target they had the space marine board game on clearance for $12 so i grabbed the two boxes they had because i wanted the Titus mini to commemorate my intro to the franchise.
am currently practicing on the termagants that come with the board game before i move onto Titus
after that I'll be building and painting my Blood Angel army to actually play the real game. i bought the fomo box and a couple other things to go along with it. i'm at about 1300 points right now never having played the tabletop before but choosing BA as my first army. i wanted to practice painting on the board game minis first so my main army didnt look like complete dogass and I'm pretty happy with my progress with the nids so far. looking forward to painting my blood angels.
sorry for the long text, i'm just really excited to get into this game and the building/painting has been really enjoyable too

I do that, but mostly for double checking my and my enemies stratagems and datasheets. It may look like I'm constantly looking at my phone but I'm locked.

Nah that's the way to do it, once you decide go all in no regrets no pussyfooting out. Track the colors you use too, get a sketchbook and make swatches.

I did it slowly and my painting massively improved so there's this disparity from one model to the next, and I regret my lazy bases. My 2nd army is going to be fully built and painted all at once.

Whats the deal with redemption from chaos? In the older fluff it seemed like once you were damned, there was no possible salvation, but newer fluff seems to imply it is possible to be "cleansed" under certain conditions and "cured" of the taint of chaos.

Is there any examples of anyone making a full recovery from falling to chaos?

Do any visual aids work for you? You could set up a magnify glass on a stand which I've done in the past.

My vision got worse due to a rare condition and it fucking sucks, I can relate, but I have found work arounds. For warhammer I suggest picking a faction that isn't super detailed with larger models, like a vehicle heavy force or something. I don't have the patience for something like mechanicum with my vision, but a dreadnaught army or eldar falcon tank heavy army are enjoyable to work on.

There should be female space marines and orks. The lost primarchs should be 2 black females, one in a wheelchair and one should be a transsexual little person.
Erda should be big Es wife and be responsible for all the good he did while he himself was a dumb himbo who followed her orders. Tyranids that aren't connected to the hivemind should be hecking goodboy puppers instead of killing machines. Soroitas should be stronger than space marines and their version of geneseed should be stored in their massive honkers. Votann should all be biker gangs. The greenskins should become communist after the red gobbos revolution succeeds.

So what’s the minimal army size these days for someone to get started in 40k? I’m a long time painter and my friend mentioned wanting to potentially try 40k after playing SM2 and getting into the lore.

Is it still killteam? Is that too small scale to feel like real 40k? What’s a starter size of points? I was gonna suggest he gets one of those combat patrols boxes but maybe that’s too big if he ends up not staying with the game.

I see your point, but this is gonna be like training wheels into the hobby, the guy we are talking about plays dnd and has only painted maybe like 1 model in his life. Would killteam or 500pts atleast get the rules across and have the knowledge transfer over to a 2k game? How many points even is a combat patrol??
>>
>>94034088
500 pts or using combat patrol is a fine entry point for newfags
>>
sometimes I give a check at what compfags are complaining about and apparently GW considers the following stats:
M10' T6 W4 3+/4++
with
7 S5 AP-1 D1 (D2 when charging)

to be roughly worth 33 points. i don't get how anyone could want to play a game with balance of this sort competitively
>>
>>94034088
KT will have very little transfer, its an entirely separate ruleset and plays very differently.

Combat Patrol is also its own game mode but is the standard ruleset with a few tweaks. Doesn't use points just what's in the CP boxes with adjusted rules to make it somewhat more balanced.
If you go into it with just the view that its kind of the minigame mode its alright. Just not something you continue to play, if that makes sense.
>>
>>94034065
call me a size queen but nobz being the size of snaggas rubs me the wrong way
the bad part is that the nobz kit is pretty good and they'd also use this opportunity to make them 3-6 unit size so deep down it's probably better they don't get updated

Kill team rules are completely different from 40k These days. The two games share the setting, but that's it.

Depends on the points, like everything. Also base size and whether it can breach terrain or fit in a transport.
Also things like "Deepstrike" or "Infiltrate" or "Aircraft without Hover" can make or break a unit regardless of its stat line.

The Custodes actually don't get to use their whole box in the Combat Patrol game mode. They have to pick between two of the units.
Same with the Grey Knights.

>>94034130
Just as a warning: not all CPs are equal. I played an intro game for my brother a while ago with the old admech box vs the old ork box, and Orks absolutely crushed admech. Not even from a "I knew how to play the game better" standpoint, it was just that there wasn't nearly enough admech to take out enough Orks before they got into melee I didn't even need to use Waaagh.

I'd recommend making a few adjustments of your own after some testing if you're sure about playing CP. For instance, I would add another unit of skitarii to the old admech CP.
>>
man I love combat patrol
>>
>>94034183
The AdMech CPs (both of them) are hilariously bad because of how fucked the AdMech ruleset was at the start of 10th.
Combat Patrol rules don't get updated and rebalanced like the main game does.
>>
>>94034186
What's your favorite CP
>>
>>94034187
Oh I know, that's why my admech has been shelved for the time being.
Just providing an example of a CP that desperately needs some custom reworking if you intend to play with it. I'm sure it's not the only one.
>>
>>94034183
Good to know. Funny enough orks and ad mech are the factions he is most interested in. I spun a random faction wheel and ended of on demons of nurgle so I’m gonna get what ever the smelliest CP is.
>>
>>94034106
:(. cant see them making any drastic changes in this edition for anti tank options, what would the solution be for it? buff current anti tank squads (tankbustas, squighog boyz), buff various shooting units like mek gunz or make an entirely new unit for 11e?

>>94034105
honestly i havent noticed yet, i built my snaggas last week and havent put them next to each other to compare sizes. the snaggas were released years after the current nobz kit werent they? bit of size creep coming in

i do like the kit desu, would be great to see more variance where a shooting nobz squad is possible but i doubt it will ever happen. its frustrating to see that part of the kit being completely useless (and it some cases big choppas but they can still be used, despite klaws being the far superior option)
>>
>>94034199
Nurgle Daemons doesn't have a CP, but Death Guard.
The Death Guard CP is notorious for being hilariously bad value (it comes with 30 models of a truly awful unit), though that probably doesn't matter if you're not graduating to Bighammer.
>>
>>94034199
I would highly, highly recommend Orks over admech. They're cheaper, easier to paint for beginners, and a lot easier to understand how to play. They also have a much bigger range so your buddy can have numerous playstyles within a single faction.
>>
>>94034183
i remember walking into a warhammer shop just before the new ork combat patrol was about to come out and the people in the shop (the only employee and his 4 or so friends) were stoked that it was being replaced as it was far too strong and whoever played with it always won. i mean what we got now is very meme worthy (le snaggas) but i guess its not op as shit anymore

Not according to armour, really? Unless its "Captain in _____" but there's more to it than that
>All wargear is free, older models without certain bits are assumed to have them and WYSIWYG isn't as stringent as it was before
Hasn't really changed that. If anything its more important because there's now units with 9 different pieces of wargear to be represented, and you want to avoid people just teleporting that across models.

I don't think GW is so malicious with their combat patrols to fill them with unsold junk (that's what the holiday discount boxes are for), especially since they continuously produce them and don't just sell a limited run.
No, the problem is that CPs are designed to both give a "cross section" of all the flavors of the army and to make sure they don't include big seller units that will definitely sell on their own to anyone that collects that army. So you get a hodgepodge of different units that don't always make for a good army, as sometimes one pillar of that army sucks and nobody uses it competitively.
All of them are great from a hobbyist perspective though because you get a lot of models and always have basic battleline units to cut your teeth on first.

I am looking at the 10th ed boxes, and if I were new, I don't know what I would learn from the sm patrol box or the DA patrol box? That marines are unfun to play, maybe... The ad mecha box is criminal, the necron on is good, but that is a prior edition box, not a really new one. The BA box is much better then the marine or DA one, because it has actual BA stuff in it, even if what gets shoved in to the box is the ugly ass Sanguinary Guard. The custods box is nice, but it was hard to make it both different from the prior one and not suck with the model range the army has in plastic. Not that GW couldn't have put another 3 bikers and a dreadnought in it. Still the noob playing custodes will fast find out that the real parts of his army come in super expensive resin and he can't just replace those units with something else.

How would they know? Unless you're strictly applying from the pot withoit mixing it's basically impossible to tell one brand from another, aside from texture. And even texture can be changed with the use of mediums.

The next edition starter should be Orks vs Orks.
>>
>>94034207
The DG box was bad value even in 9th where poxwalkwers were a top tier unit (at times). The bad value comes from the fact 30 of the models are actually the same 10 models repeated 3x, and it also wasn't even legal to field back in 9e.
>>
>>94034497
Which chapters have said tanks?
>>
>>94034504
ork bros would feast too hard, imagine being able to buy something like that as an ork player. would be insane, no trying to split the box with anyone, no one trying to sell the other half of it

>>94034504
Something like high tech Blood Axes using orkified Imperium material vs primitive Snakebites would unironically be a good box. Unlikely right now since both subfactions have gotten new models recently, but a git can dream.

None, but the guard can be used as allies.

It is, it's just that the model was OK while the old one was crazy good and still holds up, so nobody cared about the new one.

It's crazy, looking at pictures, old Snikrot looks like an alternate build of the same kit.

It's almost literally the same model, just in a different pose. Kudos for not running the design, but the old pose was just SO MUCH better It's weird they even bothered doing it like that.

Without the knowledge you’d glean from staying in this general all day every day to see a moniker of “purple anon”, it’s not clear that this basketweaving forum, full of fat fucks who overly share their unsolicited opinions at any moment, intended, “get better purple anon,” to read as, “get better, purple anon.” The key here to understand the debacle is that you assume everyone refers to that anon as “purple anon” which is clearly not the case as I’ve never seen that moniker used to refer to that anon’s crisp paint job.

I mean, one new type of knight would already be a huge deal. Even bigger if it was a new chassis to be built upon later or act a dual kit.
>>
>>94035433
Warp Spider should be an old lady.
Do Eldar even ever look old are are they just eternally middle-aged curmudgeons?

>>94035427
My mistake. Here’s a better definition of why it remained outside the quotes, queer.
> Place a question mark or exclamation point within closing quotation marks if the punctuation applies to the quotation itself. Place the punctuation outside the closing quotation marks if the punctuation applies to the whole sentence.
You’re still wrong

Off the top of my head I can't remember any that were described looking elderly. I'm honestly not sure if they themselves even can guess each other's age just by looking.

That is most definitely a Tor Garadon. Btw when's Lysander joining him on the other side of the Rubicon?

Strange, I don't recall a question or exclamation mark in your post, either.
The source you're pulling your information from confirms that you're incorrect, by the way. Scroll up a little bit from the passage you posted and you'll see one of their examples proving you wrong.

Jain Zar is a plastic suit of armor.

>>94035506
So it seems. My mistake, anon.
>>
>>94035488
Why does he get an invulnerable save but the IH gravis guy doesn't?
>>
>>94035515
I’d argue, but the models do make their armor look like the cheap plastic used to make the storm trooper armor lol
>>
>>94035522
No worries, I'm honestly just tired of this thread and am shitposting until the new one.

I've been painting for a few months and enjoying it. Can anybody redpill me on getting into airbrushing? It seems like the next logical step. Is there anything I need to do in terms of changing my painting env? I just paint at a desk in my office. Plenty of windows and whatnot.

>loads of great factions
Is this true sisters?
>>
>>94035543
If you live in a small apartment or house don't bother.
If you've got a dedicated space for it however it makes priming and basecoating (as long as you have a mostly monochromatic scheme) go much faster.
It's worth it but it's not going to make you instantly better at painting.

Regardless of what thinning solutions you use, your tip will develop dried paint on it which will cause spattering. You need to keep it clean throughout the process or you’re going to have a bad time with batch painting. After every painting session, you will want to at minimum, thoroughly clean your needle and paint cup. I also clean the area between the cup and nozzle to ensure no dried paints remains. You can avoid that last part by ensuring you’re rinsing your cup out periodically throughout the painting session. I would suggest making sure you do it in a well ventilated area, but people seem to get on well enough without even using those indoor “filter” contraptions. I do it all in the garage with a mask to filter all paint particles, but I’m cautious.

As a nod to the ridiculousness of tzangors in the Space Marine 2 game, they’re going to update their models with a 2+ invuln and 2+ FNP
>>
>>94035689
When the emperor eventually gets a model he will have these abilities as well as a 2+ stand-back-up-on-death
>>
>>94035050
YJK she fists cows
>>
>>94035746
Shouldn’t he just always stand up after death. From everything I know of the lore around the emperor, he’s essentially a perpetual at this point
>>
>>94035820
From a gameplay standpoint? No.
>>
>>94035820
I don't think you could create a more un-gamey rule if you tried. And even fluff-wise perps take a while to get back on their feet.

>>94035400
Sacristan character model, nothing else (well, they also got access to the new plastic Cerastus knights already)

Fair enough

>>94036007
Believable.

But the servo-arm welder is either a regimental enginseer or I'm right.
>>
>>94036225
The tool box is a votann thing, iirc when we saw that people pointed out how the thing grabbing the tool box handle is identical to the ones that votann exo suit dudes have.
>>
Do I have to rebase my Sanguinary Guard , Assault Space Marines, Venguard Veterans and Death company, if all of them are not primaris marines?
>>
>>94036292
Probably a good idea
>>
>>94036336
Damn I hope that the "bases sold with=legal" rule was still in effect. Maybe they will revert it later on.

Thanks for the response.
>>
>>94036283
I do agree that it looks more Votann, now that I look at it again. I included it because the Sacristan forgeshrine had a toolbox included with it, but really it's just the welder that makes sense at this point. I still think knights aren't getting another mech this edition.
>>
>>94036373
Of course they're legal but it's mostly just so some sperg do what spergs always do: sperg out
Some tourney might have a problem with it too but in casual games it shouldn't ever matter
>>
>>94031059
>>94031113
The sad thing is it's the GKs best unit by a large margin
>>
>>94036391
yeah, not sure what a sperg is, but it is the norm here. Maybe I will look for some cheap bases for the whole army. I just hope that no asshole will go "unpainted" model, because one base is glued to the other.
>>
>>94036225
its form is too rounded and mono-purpose for it to be a techpriest
also has spikes which rules them out from the get go
>>
>>94036419
A sperg is someone who would be upset or "sperg out" at the fact that your bases aren't 100% accurate to what GW sells now.
If you really think it'll matter then you can always print base extenders

Spikes don't rule out a representative from the Admech at all.

All skitarii legs have spikes on them, the skatros' legs have spikes out the back, the dominus' sidearm-arm has spikes as decoration, the knees and feet of the iron strider are both spiked, the technoarchaeologist's servo-arm has spikes, so does the enginseer (though they're smaller)

>>94036587
If it bothers assholes it's more reason for you to post them.

So pissed at gw for making imperial agents a faction instead of releasing emperors children or improving one or the many factions that needs new models. Seriously, fuck you James you should have just dumped the handful of interesting characters into the next imperial guard update. Just another piece of evidence that shows they have no interest in making the existing game better and just want to sell more resin.
