>>94042606>TQMy EC (Not this one). Last time I used him as such he single handedly slaughted a squad of TWC and almost killed a gladiator lancer before finally going down.Also the Vespid as wasps thing looks so good I may paint mine that way when I start on them. As it is I’m not sure how to paint them and my farstalkers.
>>94042647Retard alert
I'm going to create a daemon army based on the 69 chosen sonichus
>>94042606>TQI like the little diorama modelsI do not use them in my current list>Post modelsWhere is harsh critique anon when you need him?
>>94042727Vomiting in a bin over certain individual’s terrible painting choices.
>>94042727Has anyone ever tried to use real bullets for the battery of these? Just in case you are losing as Guard.. you pull up a Cadia Stands move.
Dudes i need your help, anybody has the WE meme where they are rubbing their cheeks saying stuff like, i think i heard them surrendering, i even killed the mold in the basement? my life will not be complete until i see it again.
>>94042768Eeeyyyyy you just gave me ideas to glue some spent brass on my basilisk, the 9mm casing should be the right size for the Earthshaker breech
>>94042768spend 22lr casings are popular as spent artillery shells
Should I have bought highlights paints? I only bought base and shade
>>94041978Self bumping my question
>>94042808Some base colors are highlights for other base colors, like white for gray or yellow for orange.In a pinch you can mix white with the base color and use that for highlights, but that brings down saturation and is not ideal.
Best detachment for spooky marines?
>>94042886like.. for competitive? raiders. long war or pactbound can work in a pinch. but if you don't use dread talon are you really playing spooky marines?
>>94042717Based
>>94042893Raiders advance and charge is nice on raptors + lord w/ jp...but Dread Talon looks fun, it just sucks that you have around a 50% chance of doing fuck all. It'd be nice to have the reliability of something like Raiders.
>>94042654Sallyanon is king
>>94042606>TQI change favorites pretty often but for a while it's been the gravis apothecary. Never used him in a game though since I don't really play 10th.
I was looking around at different editions and saw that the World Eaters codex for 9th edition came out 5 months before 10th edition and I was curious. Did WE players just have no idea what new shit they had for the entire of 9th edition or was there like a shitty webpage that gave them a quick summary of what's new?
>>94042856Didn't get the response to your bait that you wanted last thread huh anon?
>>94042856Someone has to play the villain.
>>94042727You're models and basing suck ass, do you feel better now?
Redpill me on callidus assassin
>>94042962Alright, I'm gonna make the wrong move: How is that fucking bait!?
>>94042974>Redpill me on callidus assassinuuuuuuuuoooooohhh latex mommy sexooo
>>94042974do action, jump off table, never get killed. its good in a competitive sense because its hard to interact with from the opponents POV.
>>94042979I dunno ask /hhg/
>>94042973NTA but try to point out what about the paintjob is lacking and how you could fix it. A score for the model is also fun. Give it another shot with the models in the thread.
>>94042606>TQRight now? Erasmus. He and his acolytes killed an Exocrine today in a 1000 point game and I love him for it.
>>940430250/10, paintjob is lacking effort, I would fix it by trying harder
>That TQHarsh model reviewer-anon, we need you.
>>94043038Funny guy
>>94042914Being battleshocked is pretty crippling to most armies so it would be too fucking powerful if it was a reliable debuff - but when it actually goes off and the opponent has already blown insane bravery, it's not good.
>>94043044>tq involves both models and games>nomodels feel left out and cry for harsh reviews of existing modelpostersI see through your ruse tourists
>>94043095I just think it's fun to see reviews dawg. Didn't mean nothing by it.
>>94043128Anyone has the ability to be an unlikable cunt, even you. Maybe if you want nasty reviews you should post your models and make shitty reviews of others within the same post
>>94042973Genuine critique helps improve models, I didn’t water down my shades and my agrax left a very glossy finish. I’ve also been told to do more highlights and it helped me alot.My colors are now less flat and not as dark.I feel sorry if your ego can’t handle it but you cannot improve without someone pointing out flaws.
Fave has gotta be the Ironkin Assistant that tags along with the Iron Master. Last time he was on the battlefield he cored out a battle sister with his 6 inch range, AP -3 las cutter.
does anyone have a problem with nipper wrenching a chunk off of the model instead of getting a clean slice
Are combibolters that much worse than combiweapons on CSM terminators? It really annoys me how uniform combiweapons aren’t compared to the combibolters. Also is the Heavy Flamer good or not?
>>94042606>TQthis guy entirely because he's my latest finished model, and I finally locked into the gimmick I'm gonna write on weapon/pauldron scrolls with himI've yet to play a non-combat patrol game with a loaner WE army so I can't answer half the question :^)
>>94042717Based I once wrote a short story about some Scions thru warp fuckery get sent back to 2022 where they find out Chris Chan is actually a warp demon. They keep shooting at Chris but he regenerates. They think the medallion is the key but one of them figures out it’s actually Chris’s duck that is the Chaos source and Chris takes a Melta shoot to the balls. It ends with them living on Earth of 2022 and trying to find the Emperor.
Would it make sense to have a "Mobilization Army" set in hibernation ready to be awakened for extra manpower in reserves?
>>94043233It would be kind of retarded but it isn’t without precedent. See: primaris
>>94042606Probably my Lib dread. Last game he ran forward, got shot by a shadowsword and exploded. Wish he had deadly demise d3 or higher cause I secretly always hope for all the dreads to explode in a chain reaction for peak tragedymaxxing >>94042647>>94042654Always loved your gold recipe sallyanon>>94042944Your apothecaries are prolly my fave stuff you've done so far anon>>94042727The fatigues look really tidy, good stuff.>>94043032What metallic recipe did you use on the sword blade, I like the greenish sortve hue it has going on>>94043202I don't think I've seen muted green votanns but it works pretty well for them>>94043224I've always thought the helmet stripe you do on your guys really ties the scheme together. The gold Aquila turned out pretty spicy on this dude too
>>94043233there are several space marine chapters that already do this.>>94043247the dirty little secret of the sword.. its just three AP speedpaints thinned down and wet blended together along the plain leadbelcher blade.>carribean ocean near the hilt>prismatic bolt in the middle>splash of zealot yellow near the fire at the bottom
why are there no techmarines in terminator armorwe have every other specialist HQ for marines in terminator armor and it seems like tech fetishists would be chomping at the bit to wear the fanciest marine gear
>>94043261>its just three AP speedpaints thinned down and wet blended together along the plain leadbelcher bladeKino, I'll have to give that a shot some time thanks anon
>>94043224for somebody to take the time to weather up a leather holster so cleanly yet go on to leave the belt unpainted is very disappointing
What base size would you use for a trukk?
>>94043269I dunno ask /hhg/
Hold up. Can a plague marine champ not have a power fist anymore?
>>94043269because chapter leadership usually doesn't trust tech marines who might be more loyal to Mars than their brothers. but there isn't anything saying you can't kitbash your own tech marine wearing it.
>>94043277You've never held a paintbrush before let alone painted a model
>>94043282it's a bubonic weapon
>>94043269Because GW hates us. Retvrn to 2E and you can give any generic SM character termie armor, even techmarines
>>94043282Power fist was rolled into the other plague weapons.
>>94043279Webstore says the speedfreaks cars are on 170mm ovals. Not sure how much bigger they are than the classic truck but I'd prolly start there and adjust accordingly
>>94043284But you can't attach a tech marine to Terminator squads can you
>>94043286No need to get so defensive you painted it well otherwise, it's just a strange detail to leave out when it's so visible
>>94043315I'm not orange and Teal anon, but you're still a faggot
>>94043247Cheers, I always enjoy getting to paint on those sergeant stripes tooAnd thanks but it's literally just skeleton horde over a silver metallic lel
>>94043277>>94043315I'll be honest it wasn't until recently that I realized their belts are even leather I don't really look at storefront/boxart paint jobs on marines so I kept flip flopping on how the belts should get painted lmao
>>94043269Techmarines wear artificer armor with an iron halo, their armor is already equal to or even better than terminator warplate.
>>94043320You can't call others faggots while posting goonhammer
>>94043353>Standard marine armor better than tactical dread armorThis is why crunch being canon isn't a thing anymore
>>94043379>standardArtificer armor is the mark of excellence and craftsmanship that shows off the decades of training and dedication a techmarine takes to become a master of his craft. It’s as standard as a relic of the chapter wielded by ancient heroes is standard.
>>94043353Since when do they have an iron halo?
>>94043396They might not, it’s been a while since I’ve read loyalist statlines but I swore that they had an invuln save. t. Chaos Worshipper
>>94043207>is the heavy flamer good or not?read dark pacts and then read torrent
>>94042606>TQI don't play tabletop unfortunately because I have no friends but Cawl is my absolute favorite mini in the entirety of 40k
>>94043374Eat this gooberkino fagget
spooky tober beginshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zmcV0pIKKg
>>94043336>skeleton horde over a silver metallicOne of my fave contrast uses hands down
>>94043415Lovely stuff as always mechanicanon, what's next on the painting bench for you?
>>94043282Power fist more like power shit lmao
anywhoBusty Bolter Bitches
>>94043409And I supossed to recognize the guy Next to Fillon?
can i use small knights in both imperial and chaos knights?
>>94043513You can use helverins and warglaives in chaos knights but you can't use war dogs in imperial knights
>>94043499>posts terrible artwork of stupidly proportioned women in a thinly veiled attempt to convince everyone that he's not the gheyAnon. No one cares.
>>94043282Nigga read the datasheet, notice any statline that's similar to a power fist on it? Hmmmm
>>94043476Cheers, no admech unfortunately. I'm painting some aos rn and finished 2 tsons lately. I'll probably do the dunecrawler for my next admech mini
>typed short reviews for every mini posted so far>4chan eats the post without saving the textoh well, I'm not typing all that shit again
is chaos cringe lads?
>>94043233In a more peaceful galaxy, sure, but we're told 40k is pretty much always at war so there's not a big point in letting your dudes sleep.
Would it make sense if a few marines to have older marks of armour from the HH as relics in 40k or would they simply be in the chapters museum and not used. Did anons really get mad at these small changes in armour design>
>>94043664Depends.Chaos that defines itself as opposition to the Imperium is cringe. Chaos fo chaos' sake is based.
>>94043269Probably because terminator armor is a treasure of their chapter due to their rarity, and while valued, tech marines are often distrusted because of their dual loyalty to their chapter and their forge world.
If the Milky Way galaxy is so awful why nobody leaves it?
>>94043675>Would it make sense if a few marines to have older marks of armour from the HH as relics in 40kNot only does it make sense, it's literally what happens in art and fluff.
will james workshop beat me up and steal my lunch money if i play 30k marines in 40k
>>94043710No although you may run into a bit of trouble at events because all the HH era tanks and dreds got sent to legends. People won't give a shit at casual games but a lot of TOs bend the knee and ban legends stuff
>>94042856I think there's two answers for two different groups.Some people like the aesthetics and how evil and brutal they are. Liking then models and stuff, and in lore finding fun in seeing their favourites interacting with the heroes. For example I play Tyranids and Necrons mainly, but in a story I will root for the human side and enjoy seeing all my cool units clash against whoever and interacting with the world.The others are actual contrarians with the opinion of imperium bad and chaos good and justified in every atrocious act in the name of killing the imperium.I personally don't agree with the second opinion, but whatever people like or think is not my concern most of the time.
Anyone got any experience melting models? I want to melt a psyker to a baneblade hull. Should I just cut it (the psyker) in half and use acetone, heat, or any ideas?
>>94043710No. Contrary to popular belief James doesn't send armed Pinkerton goons after you if you proxy things.
>>94043720Plastic glue works pretty well and is controllable
>>94043720I'd probably just sprue goo and uhu glue to make it look like melted flesh
>>94043710Just run them as tacticals and noone will care
>>94043710No, and it's optimal for monetary expenditure (unironically cheaper despite what "5 poses" anon will say) and immersion, as marks before X enable you to think of armies belonging to anywhere between M.30 to M.40
Termagants or hormagaunts?Termagants seem to get a lot more buff support with the tervigon but hormagaunts are like at least twice as fast and look cooler
>>94043750I'm going to paint that part of the baneblade black, hollow it a little and try and model some chains, as though he's chained to the tank. The full model pressed against the hull seemed excessive. Never done a rework of this scale before.
>>94043664I mean, I'll always assume anyone who plays Death Guard thinks getting you to pull their finger is the peak of comedy and that's pretty cringe.
>>94043664Yes, and that’s what makes it based.
Fuck it. Fuck "which army is good" or "which army is fun", which army is EASY TO PAINT? I'm sick of getting mogged by slightly better painters.
>>94043810The one player who has Death Guard & Salamanders in my lgs is a diaperfurfag and has tattoos of dragon wings and a tail so yeah DG players are cooked in that regard
>>94043840stop comparing yourself to others and paint whatever the fuck you find cool
Does anyone know how More Gits Over 'ere works with aircraft? Do you have to move it like an aircraft or do you have to scooch it only 6" like the strat says.
>>94043849>The one player who has Death Guard & Salamanders in my lgs is a diaperfurfagI’m not sure I want to know how you found out he was a diaperfur.
>>94043870you can hear it crinkling as he walks
>>94043840Daemons, Custodes, and Orks are easy to paint to a good standard for someone with zero experience.Any flavour of space marine is also easy to paint because there's a billion tutorials out there for them.
>>94043840SMs but you should really just be patient with yourself and paint an army you actually like.
>>94043870>See his name on discord>Meet him irl>Balding neckbeard with furry shirt>Look up his name on FA and twitter>Diaper stuff, mlp cosplay, pup mask, etc >mfw I was beaten, rules lawyered, and possibly cheated by a guy whose dragon fursona wears big puffy diapers and who for all I know is wearing a pair of adult diapers whenever I see himHe also offhandedly mentioned that story about a diaperfur who microwaved used diapers once.
>>94043840grab tyranids, make a dark colour scheme with a few pale skin spots and arbitrary patterns, use contrasts, washes and colorshift paints, plus gloss for the carapace and slimy bits.
>>94043710That was under Kirby's benevolent ruling. Now they summary execute you in the street.
>>94043720heat just burns rather than melts gw plastic
>>94043798>look coolerYou've answered your own question
>>94043840Anything where the models texture will do a lot of the work for you. Smooth sleek models like space marines, tau and eldar will make mistakes and lack of technique glaringly obvious. Organic, detailed armies like tyranids, genestealer cults, death guard, and orks can hide a lot of that just using the models natural texture and simple techniques like shade and drybrushing which are idiot proof. I would say sisters of battle also fall into this category but their faces are a challenge so maybe use all helmetsChaos marines and world eaters are middle ground somewhere Imbetween the 2, but a lot of less experienced painters also find their trim to be hell to paint
>>94043840Necrons are all metal dudes that you could do an entire army with a few cans of silver spray, a couple pots of nuln oil, two splash colours + a highlight for each for weapon casings and glowy bits, and some basing paste.
>>94043943did you just put space marines, eldar and tau as harder to paint than chaos marines? lol
>>94043898That's what you get for playing with subhumans in stores
>tfw want to paint up so many marines>but only chaos onesKill me
>>94042606I didn't give a shit about these fucking things, but that scheme is so fucking rad it makes me almost want them
>>94043960Not yet you need to have fun painting cool ebil space guys
>>94043974I do have fun but my issue is I start thinking, “Yeah painting a squad from this warband would be cool” and keep wanting to do it
Do you think GW will ever revive Inquisitor in its true and proper 54mm scale?
>>94043989Paint black legion and do their arms in their warband colours or some shit
>>94044000There is AI in the base of this pic.
>>94043991no
How much time until GW uses 2nd and 11th Legion as female marine based release?
>>94044012Let's hope you think wrong.
>>94044014No female primarchsKill yourself
>>94044014I thought they were used as custom SM and CSMs legions, do GW actually intend to use them for something?
>>94043999No I don’t like black legionI want to do themed detachments of all the funny little warbands I loveCannoneer Khornates of The HarvestSorcerous Schizophrenics of The ScourgeDangerous Daemoniacs of the Word BearersCrazed Cravens of the Night LordsAnd more!
Deciding next projectDo I paint 600 pts of Tyranids or the SoB combat patrol?
>>94044022And HH used to be a mith. But GW will use anything to get more money from marines.
>>94044022>do GW actually intend to use them for something?No. Anon is just trying to feed off of any emotional responses to his hypothetical.
>>94044014never
>>94044022>as custom SM and CSMs legionsHonestly, I've never saw ANYONE in 25 years in this plastic adiction using the lost legions as GW intended.
Old dreads were a delight to build but the new dreads are cock and ball torture to build.
>>94044014Custodas worked fine, so is just a matter of time. At least SM2 shows that the 40k public is 99.9% heterosexual teenagers so they will delay releasing space marine models.
>>94042856Here's my reasons for liking Chaos:-We're playing a dice based game where horrible things happen to little pretend people. Chaos kind of fits the theme-I can sculpt what I like and not worry about it looking cool; Chaos is inherently broken-I can use any bit of any model kit I fancy-Corruption and resistance to corruption is fertile ground for storytelling; I've always been a fan of zombies, Alien, all that kind of thing-A few powerful, heavily converted dudes are both cheaper and more satisfying for me to model and paint than a larger force coming out of the box
What scale is 40k modelled at? 28mm?
>>94044034Never say never, anon :^)
Dark people wish I more liked Eldar
>>94044114more like 30 now... leading to 32.
>>94042856>I don't like the mutated, grimy aspect or the "oh boy, I can't wait to go slaughter civilians" thing (not that stuff in the Imperium isn't like that, but I tend to not enjoy those sorts of things even in the Imperium)So, you dislike brutality, but can overlook it when it's committed against an other, or for a "good" cause?
>>94044114Heroic scale. Close to 28mm or 1/65, but heads, hands and weapons are significantly oversized.
>>94042606>TQThe HospitallerI love how GWs went out of their way to make this little vignette of this saintly figure compassionately attending to a dying sister, a beautiful faux centrepiece.And it's a 50pt medic.I almost always run at least one, mostly in squad of Sacresants. She really helps the longevity of her fellow sisters.
>>94044145I hate how GW paints female faces.
>>94044145I like the metal one more. Too bad I can't find it anywhere.
thoughts between enforcer vs coldstar tau commander? i thought maybe coldstar because the minigun looks cooler
>>94044157>enforcer vs coldstar tau commander? I think that any other army looks better except votan so switch to other army instead.
>>94044145I'd like a variant that functions like the marines' gravis apothecary.
>>94044118not a marinenot even a miniature
>>94044145Completely missed the second part of the question. Last game her, the Palatine and the whole Domnion squad they were in got flattened before they did much of anything. My opponent really didn't like me trying to claim that particular objective.
>>94044157Coldstar is better at tank hunting. Enforcer is better at deep strike.
>>94044183>not a marine>not even a miniatureand still manages to piss you off
>>94044037Yeah, me either. I guess it's hard to state "Unknown founding" and imply it one of those two, but you can't also just outright say "Yeah, they're 11th legion genestock!" because literally no one knows about it. I think the current choices are enough, and mutated geneseeed gives enough options.
>>94044169How does he differ from their normal one?
>>94044157Coldstar is the fast one. Gains an extra wound as well as M12" - that speed is now shared with any crisis suits they join on top of gaining Assault on their guns so everything will always fire on the move,.Starts off with the High-Output Burst Cannon, which is a burst cannon with double the attacks, but the whole point of this Commander is that rather than Deep Striking, you can scoot a minimum of 13" into position to shoot, so grab triple fusion and a shield generator.Enforcer is the tough one. Slower at M8" but gets a 2+ save. The best to hit any high-powered forces as the AP of any guns that target their retinue worsens by 1. This makes anything like imperial plasma guns a lot less effective in taking your guys on, even with the overcharge. This is where you might contemplate a Shield Generator, if you want the Commander to tank hits for the Bodyguard, but that's a dumb choice, don't make it. This is the Commander for placing all your bets on Deep Strike shooting, which is maybe not the best choice ever made, but still means you want maximum guns.
>>94044199Behead chatGPT posters
>>94044198He instructs his bros to hit the enemy weak spots and collects the loot after they're done.
>>94043719>chaos goodI have never actually met someone with this take. Yeah, Imperium is obviously bad, it's in the settings tag-line. But Chaos is unjustifiably evil and the destruction of the Imperium is more a secondary goal to the majority of warbands, murder and looting being the primary.
>>94044208>Absolvor bolt pistolIs that a typo and it's meant to say Absolver, or is it just stupid?
>>94044194a retcon that undermines sos? yeswhy do you defend it on the other hand?
>>94044230>undermines?Ladystodes are blanks?
Wanna get into THIS again (and by again I mean I built and painted some random shit for fun throught the years) but I don't really want to spend the money equivalent to multiple ps4s to do soSo... what's the best way to go about it bros? Looking for sales sure ok, but 3D printing maybe? Sounds hardProxy models?
>>94044235Play killteam.
>>94044234It's very important that ladies only be in one ultra specialized role per army. The idea of a gender integrated military disgusts and angers me. I'm very normal by the way.
2 big knights and 6 small ones or 3 big 4 small?
New to this entire thing, picked up a box of dark angel combat patrols because I was recommended them as a relatively simple intro to building/paintingWhy shouldn't I paint them as blood ravens
>>94044263the less big knights the better
Are there any other sites besides Etsy where you can buy already printed bits? eBay is not a good option. I don't have a printer or know anyone with a resin one.
>>94044230>why do you defend it on the other hand?Where did I defend them?Also I really don't care that much about 40k to be salty about its fluff.
>>94044199>if you want the Commander to tank hits for the Bodyguardyou cant do this unironically you are a no games faggot
>>94044273Check your local library if you're in the United States. I found out mine got a grant for a 3D printing program and residents of the county can get things printed for free, once a week. I just email them the stl, and they send me an email when it's ready to pick up.I searched and it's somewhat common.
>>94044269>why shouldn’t youBecause Dark Angels are cooler and red armor is a bitch to paint>why should youBecause Blood Ravens are cooler and red armor isn’t actually that bad to paintI dunno do you got any other chapter ideas you wanna do too? That box is pretty generic afaik.
>>94042606>TQI'm a sucker for my new models and kitbashes so my favorite at the moment is my new snazzwagon. I can't stop looking at it.We'll see how it does tonight against DG probably poorly>>94043279You can use a knight base, which all the speed freeks models come with. A trukk is bigger than the buggies but that base suits it well.
>>94044331If by DG you mean Death Guard, it's already over unless he gimps his list or gets a streak of bad luck
>>94044044They're even more cock and ball torture to paint if you don't do subassemblies.Never again.
>>94042944i love how fuckin crips these marines are, its actually unbelievable. one day i might be able to paint white like that, but i doubt it
>>94044322My only other idea is something original, but I haven't really put any thought into it
>>94044269Honestly, lurk a little more and create your own dudes, it's the most interesting and fun thing in this hobby by my experience.
>>94044337Yeah it'll be Death Guard. It's against a close friend who got me into warhammer in the first place, though he doesn't play that much anymore.I don't mind losing against him and because of the WS/BS debuff I expect to, but he's usually pretty fun to fight against. It'll at least be interesting to see how Kult of Speed plays. First time I'll actually play Speed Freeks earnestly since starting the game.
>>94044345I’d say open up your space marine codex/go on lexicanum and look at lists of successor chapters to get inspiration for color schemes.

>>94044331i do like this snazzwagon, how did you go about getting so many spare parts to make it? do those kits some with heaps of extra shit? im yet to build one
>>94043898>>Look up his name on FA and twitterDamn, you looked into the fucking abyss on that one.
>>94044356A lot of the older Ork vehicles like the trukk and battlewagon are joyous kits with lots of bits to work with even once you've built the functional model. But the newer buggies have only enough bits to make 1 model out of, with extremely little posability, variation, or extra pieces. It's why they were pretty poorly received despite looking quite nice: ork models need to be customizable arguably more than any other faction.I built that model mostly out of a spare trukk I had from a bulk buy and then took some bits (the front, the top, and the gunner) from another snazzwagon kit I'm splitting up to make 2 out of. And of course, plasticard.

Is Titus going to become the next Emperor's Champion and cuck the Templars?
>>94044462Nope, I'm 10 years to old to have discord.
>>94044481>GW are going to be dedicating an amount of their finite plastics production capacity to this shit
>>94044484Yes. By the end of 2025, if a Black Templars player wants to run the Emperor's Champion in their army, they will have to use the bespoke Lieutenant Titus model painted in Ultramarines 2nd Company colors. At this point it's inevitable. For real though your question is retarded.
>>94044471God I want more Necrons with non standard bodies
>>94044514This but eldar.
are you telling me that if i play in a tournament my name will be available publicly and i’ll be doxxed forever?
>>94044528No one, literally no one cares about your dox
>>94044514It's one of the great appeals of the necron model range imho. The sculptors are clearly conscious of the fact that alien robots can look like whatever so long as it's cool, giving the sculptors license to create a great variety of different morphologies across the army. It's been really cool to see the model range and its design language mature since the early 2000s.

Hello, i have been sent from GW to ask 40kg to brainstorm a new xeno faction for our game. The only criteria is that they MUST rape people. We've been thinking of Space Fimir.
>>94044606Being a retard and falling to chaos.He could have salvaged his chapter if he hadn't made so many marines and didn't let then drift to chaos in the closing days of the war What's he doing after the rift?

>>94044603Tax evasion is a crime anon.
what the FUCK is the point of null maiden vigil
>>94044418I mention it's an interesting design, ask where they got it from, and proceed with the game. Paint them up like stone or bronze and you have some statues to decorate terrain with.
>>94044626>if he hadn't made so many marinesThe ACs would've been ruined if he hadn't done that. The Imperium was pressuring him to keep doing a peacekeeping job over an area his Wardens never managed to fully cover, frequently dismissed his pleas for additional resources, admonished him for building up his himan armies and then also kept demanding ridiculous gene seed tithes on them. If he hadn't put marine production into overdrive the Astral Claws would've just gone extinct over the next century or two due to attrition.

Sisters of Silence are a better foil to Sisters of Battle than they are to Custodians.
>>94044676Yes.But the number he made is what actually gave it away and condemned him in the eyes of terra and the inquisition.I'm not saying there was a way to safely get out of there. But he fucked up.
>>94044649It's of you are playing an SoS army without bananas.It has the foundations for giving the sisters a proper identity, rules wise, but it seems to be either rushed, incomplete or both. Mostly it's GW trying to bandage over the fact they have completely forgotten the sisters and a likely just buying time till they get to them in HH in a couple of years.
>>94042788I have a Carcharodons one.
>>94044694its a new way to play that allows custodes players to expand their collection or for custodes players who already have a lot of sister models to use
>>94042886>>94043086Their VA in SM2 makes them cool somehow

>>94044778It's just artistic liberty to show his imposing aura over the injured and terrified MW. He's described as about a head taller than the average marine, also javing the additionalbulk froom Termie armor.
>>94044768I love this gigantic asshole of a chapter master.Hope he gets an updated model sometime. Or that a 3d artist without "must cover ever mm in details" syndrome designs an stl for him

Chaos Xenos. Wraithknight-style Hellbrutes, Avatar of Khorne, Tzeench Riptides.
It's a drill.
>>94044797I'm pretty sure he's like 2 heads taller.The thing with his armour is that it's Dreadnaught plate.
>>94044697she doesn'tshe gets separated so she contributes less to the fight and the other members of the imperium get dumbed down so it's the custodes alone who communicateseven the fucking black ship shepherd was made ignorant of sign language despite their fucking job putting them in close coordination with the null maidenswhat was announced as an episode about the sister of silence turned out to be wank about custodes and how they can order around marines
Not too familiar with the tau.What are their plasma, melta, lascannon, and so on equivalents for weapons and what do they looks like?
>>94044627I could've sworn GW had absorbed all plastics production, including hobby tools like this and the painting handles and the likes, into its expanded Notts facilities in the last few years?
>>94044331Speed Freekz buggies aren't actually on knight bases, they are on 150mm X 75mm. I think they share that size with the GSC buggy and the Votann buggy.Knights are on 170mm X 75mm.

>>94044501>>94044627>>94044829Nah, this palette will push the new aspect warrior sprues by another decade. Priorities.
>>94044606He did nothing right.
>>94044915Eldar don't even have medics. If one of them loses a limb they're toast.
>>94044378ok that makes sense, ive only built the battlewagon and trukk so far (as i dont really have any use for many other vehicles) and do have quite a few spare bits but some parts i just didnt bother using (like that roll cage bit on the trukk, etc). thats what i enjoy the most about converting shit for orks, its doesnt look too out of place regardless of what it is, you definitely couldnt get away with that in marines or tau for examplemakes me think about all of the random shit ive got in a box somewhere, bought a pile of orks and it came with lots of weird shit ive never seen before, theres even a trukk that doesnt have the bottom back section on it at all (wheels, axel, etc) and was thinking of turning it into a snagga themed trukk, maybe by just chucking the old fantasy ork chariot as the back bit (with the wagon wheels) and having the trukk pulled by either the boars that came with it or two large squigs. the possibilities are endless really, and id like a trukk for my snaggas
>>94044915I guess. I don't think it's come up. Craftworlder cripples aren't really a thing that's ever been spotlighted. Maybe they just get whole replacement limbs instead of prostheses.
>>94042654I like the script (or illusion of script) on the chest and the lantern is done well too>>94042727Love the computer screen - i feel like you've left detail on the table and could do more with the tyres>>94042944Incredible shading and highlighting, these models "pop" in a way most don't.

I would give those tools a wash if you haven't already.>>94043224Again I agree with the other anon, the stripe on the helmet does wonders for your colour scheme. I like that you've done the lens on the bolter scope, most people don't do that>>94043247Now that's a dreadnought that's seen some shit. Love the checkerboard pattern on the shoulder. If I could criticize this I'd say the blade of the weapon doesn't really stand out.>>94043415Incredible work. The bright colours you've used draw my attention to every part of the model and I notice new detail every time I reexamine it.>>94044331Now this is proppa orky. The flames in the front are simple yet work well and your highlights really make this model stand out. I like the checkerboard pattern too - the imperfections make it look more orky and I mean that as praise.
>>94044821100% a mole launcher projectile. The question is if it's for Votann, or the coming plastic Krieg.

>>94044928All the Eldar kill teams have medics in them.The Dark Eldar have an entire third of their faction dedicated to mad doctors who defy death.
>>94043408Techmarines have never used iron halos.
>>94044941That happens a lot more often than you would think. Not usually to the second company though. Marines are constantly getting promoted from the reserve companies into the higher ranks of the active ones and scouts fill in the reserves as they get their carapace.
>>94044986>happens a lot more often than you would thinkShut up Acheran.
Has anyone played this in 10th?Is it any _fun_?
>>94044941Seems like a pretty great ratio for what they achieved in defending a System from a Tyranid fleet + Chaos invasion. That's the shit a task force of a few companies would be pressed to deal with. Marines aren't all-powerful anon, they're just reliable shock troops.
>>94044821Might be a mole launcher but it looks like it's attached to a gauntlet or something to me
These vespid models are the first 40k models in a long time I've really liked. Is a vespid heavy tau army possible?
>>94044821Icecream.
>>94044941a company is only 100 marines. Look at the shit they were up against, the only reason they werent wiped out with little effort is because they were doing targetted missions rather than a straight brawl with the tyranids and chaos
>>94045023Just use them as firewarriors
>>94045023most likely not, it's one unitbest thing you could try is converting a shitload of vespids to count as other units and roles in an army, but you either need to make some wingless worker vespids for some basic infantries or look up a better army to count your bees as
Anyone who has the blood angels codex, who can lead a death company with jump pack squad? Besides named characters.
>>94045007Hell, I'd say you would normally have multiple chapters supporting an operation like that if they had the correct Intel to coordinate against it. Even the Ultras call upon their successors for aid at times.
>>94044828They have two plasma analogues: Actual plasma (which is basically just better than Imperial plasma because it doesn't overheat), and ion weapons, which shoot more and weaker shots, and can overcharge. Their melta weapons are fusion weapons. They don't really have anything like lascannons.
>>94045037Vespid getting the Kroot treatment would be hilarious but it will definitely never happen.Would make Tau look a lot more like a coalition army though as some people claim they want.
>>94045037>or look up a better army to count your bees asBee themed lost legion that fell to chaos with bee daemons it is.
>>94045034Which is the correct way to show space marines being deployed. Targeted strike force operation while the Guard holds the line and the Imperial Navy blockades and bombards.
>>94043865>If, when making a Normal move... it cannot move a minimum of 20", that model’s move ends and it is placed into Strategic Reserves.Did this come up in a game or are you just wondering
>>94045048Oh yeah, definitely. It wouldn't even matter if Marines were THAT powerful, with there only being arouns a 1K of the fuckers in a chapter there's just not much they can achieve in a straight up fight. You can only spread yourself so thin when there's so few of you around.
>>94044626>>94044676Where did you get the idea that the Astral Claws were on the road to becoming extinct before they started withholding tithes? Huron himself didn't put that argument forward.
>>94045049is this melta or plasma tech?
>>94044895>>94044824>contributes less to the fightThe fight was irrelevant silly.The key was to secure the titular Tithe (of psykers) and she was playing the core role in that, because surprise-surprise, Shadow in the Warp drives psykers to degrees of instanity & instability that could jeopardize the whole retrieval mission. Her job was more important than killing some T5 ambush nids, which is something that a bunch of veteran guardsmen/marines could probably do.
>>94045082Anon, what happens when you're forced to spread yourself thin, be constantly fighting with dangerous elements like Chaos and Orks, never receive reinforcements and have you lifeline be always drained away?

>>94045054vespids don't even warrant the kroot treatment kroots were included into the tau codex and received multiple units at the very start because it was a close tossup until the very end of the creative process as for whether the new alien army gw wanted to have would be something conventionally advanced, to create a contrast with the unconventionally sci fi setting, or kroots, and even when they agreed the advanced army allowed for more and more flexible designs and less redundancy with stuff like orks and nids, they still added in the kroots because they didn't want to give up on a concept the studio was very in love with behind the scenesso the fluff about the tau empire being friendly to other alien races and integrating them into their empire was made a part of their identity, all to not throw away the idea of the krootsvespids were added later exclusively because an alien empire that preaches integration of numerous vassal races showing up on the battlefield with only 1 allied race was sillyand for the same reason adding more vespids instead of adding more alien races as one-off units would be silly

What the most reposing you've ever done for a model?
>>9404511610-15 Catachan could probably take down a Lictor no problem and they would probably cost Imperium far less than a Custard, and I am very pro-Nid and anti-Custard in these kind of arguments.>successfully recovering a rogue psykerExactly, which is why they have taken a null.
>>94045097>The key was to secure the titular Tithe (of psykers) and she was playing the core role in thatAnd yet the episode did a bad job at emphasizing her importance and the importance of the task and most of both the screentime and of the gravitas was about the custodian, it hijacked what would have otherwise been and was announced as the sister of silence episode.
>>94045038Do you really think anyone here plays the game? Ask reddit
>>94045138>And yet the episode did a bad job at emphasizing her importance and the importance of the taskMaybe if you're not familiar with nids? But the general paranoia and soundscape used in the bunker scenes made it pretty obvious, the masked PDF/arbites girl couldn't hear jack shit meanwhile the psykers were heavily freaking out while still inside a giant metal box.

>>94044821krieg mole launcher
>>94045147No, I get it, but I also get that it was handled like shit and the protagonist and point of the episode were relegated to an accompanying character and a subplot.The episode was almost completely stolen by the custodian, its fight and its interaction with the marines.
>>94044821
>>94044454It’s from the same designer/player.
>>94045170>The episode was almost completely stolen by the custodian, its fight and its interaction with the marines.She didn't do anything much impressive that couldn't have been done by a kitted out Ordo Xenos inquisitor. It was just brute force combat & some political posturing. You don't exactly need a Palace Janitor for that
>>94045170>The episode was almost completely stolen by the custodian, its fight and its interaction with the marines>the character who can't talk got to talk less than the speaking character>the character who is not an insanely augmented genetic work of art did less killing than the character who was>this is a shock
>>94045082No one said that anon, at least not me.Huron witholded tithes because he was not getting the support to achieve the mission the warders had been given, and using his rights to self governance and the fact that the zone was an autonomous zone enabled him to declare not tithing legal because the imperium was not holding their part of the deal.The thing about the marine production is that he got cocky and hubris got to his head after seeing the results of getting that one extra company of their descendants and the results of the fleet reclamation program.He could have been more subtle about it but he made too many marines and used them in a way his sin became apparent.
>>94045065The irony is its difficult to replicate what should be standard on the table top.
Post grimdark food
>>94043683Because it's pretty much impossible to travel to another galaxy due to the distance. Someone who knows space and physics stuff can explain it better than me.
>>94045250Nids did it
>>94045234
>>94043683Warp being the main form of travel nobody ever developed sufficiently advanced FTL to make reaching the nearest galaxy (2.5M light years away) realistically feasible. I could see Necrons having the best shot, but even then their thing is that they're byband large attached to this Galaxy.
>>94045234SOILENT GREEN IS PEOPLE
>>94045250Thats irrelevant when you establish faster than light travel. Also even when the warp isn't involved, the 40k universe treats physics as non-relativistic.

i love the emperorsimple as
>>94045194Yes, it is a shock that the character who's meant to interact with the black ships as its main job is unable to communicate with the black ship's shepherd, and it is a shock that the anti-psychic character was unable to showcase its utility against the psychic coordination of the tyranids, and it is a shock that episode presented as being about the sister of battle was actually about wanking a custodian with a fight scene and by ordering marines about.
>>94045234The squats turn planets into booze. Is that grimdark?

>>94045234Guilliman should create ways to cook all the enemies of the Imperium. They already eat corpse starch, what would processed Ork meat be in comparison? Soon the Imperium will see themselves with eased logistics lines, and troops charging into battle for their next meal. Desertion and cowardice means starvation without any need to enforce it.

Is 40k more fun with 1500 pts, 1000, or 500?
>>94045107Again, that isn't even the argument Huron made. If there was a perennial threat to the longevity of his chapter then he never made a point of it when making his case to the rest of the Imperium. And it's not like he didn't have time to come up with this excuse since he refused to pay his taxes for a century and a half.Even then, his tax evasion didn't turn into a war until after he had started blockading all trade through the Badab sector, destroyed three different fleets of tax collectors, killed inquisitorial representatives, openly seceded from the Imperium while promising to continue his mission of defending the Imperium, declared that the people he blew up should be put under investigation, and then started attacking neighboring Imperial worlds and trade routes outside of Badab. And even then it didn't officially become the "Badab War" until the High Lords (who recognized him as the lawful governor of Badab and were sympathetic to his claims of requiring the tithes to secure the Maelstrom Zone) sent a delegation to order a ceasefire followed by peaceful arbitration and investigation of the people Huron had demanded be investigated, and Huron also destroyed that delegation.At no point in the whole drama did he ever take a reasonable position. He escalated the conflict at every turn.
>>94045380>what would processed Ork meat be in comparison?Pork and shrooms hash
>>94045380Didn't someone in the imperium report that an eatin' squig was the best thing he'd ever tasted?
>>94045449Definitely not 500. Balance is way out of whack at that level. 1000pts is debatable but if you play on the size of board that it recommends you feel way to thinly spread with some armies and can't really play objectives properly. This would probably be fine in a smaller board, but then melee rush down and getting boxed in to your deployment would be bigger problems. 1.5k is a very reasonable size to play at and runs quicker and smoother than 2k and forces people to make more tradeoffs in their list building.

>>94045349>Yes, it is a shock that the character who's meant to interact with the black ships as its main job is unable to communicate with the black ship's shepherdI'll give you that one>and it is a shock that the anti-psychic character was unable to showcase its utility against the psychic coordination of the tyranids, These are animations to help sell plastic toys. Sisters of Silence can't actually disrupt synapse on the tabletop, and the psychic disruption shown in the animation is too short-ranged to disrupt synapse in any case. >and it is a shock that episode presented as being about the sister of battleOf silence, please>was actually about wanking a custodian with a fight scene and by ordering marines about.Please show me where the episode was presented as being about the Sister of Silence.Because Warhammer Community on https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/TBbxxG5O/the-tithes-episode-2-custodes-dont-ask-twice/ talks about seeing five sections of the Imperium interacting, and it talks about how cool it is seeing a Custodian in action and bossing around Space Marines, but it never says that it's about the SoS- just that the SoS is in it.
>>94044938Thanks for taking the time to reply to every model. I liked the actual critique in the previous reviewanons posts though, this feels hugbox-ey
Week 4 of rewatching painting videos to decide which one I'll copy for my army.
>>94045454Oh right I forgot to mention that he got away with unilaterally enacting exterminatus on several Imperial worlds because pirates had temporarily made port on them. Like he didn't just demolish a few dockyards, he deleted the biosphere. Frankly it's ludicrous what he got away with before he started the Badab War.
Uh, I guess Aeronautica Imperialis is alive again? Kinda, not really?https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/m9RMooUs/interceptor-city-dan-abnett-returns-to-the-war-torn-skies-of-warhammer-40000/
>>94045510Not that anon, but thanks, this shit is fucking great.
Wish they wouldn’t just shaft armies with shitty army rules that don’t get changed. Looking at shit like>Agents, literally don’t have one >Admech, dogshit>Nid, completely irrelevant to what the army does. Pointless when you’re playing against marines 90% of the time Then I see shit like Thousand Sons which combined with their detachment is amazing and fluffy
>>94045552>Hey guys, what if we made numerous offshoot 40k game>But then didn't include half of our playerbase in any of themGenius!
>>94044481Pro-tip: Those rubber bump-poking stim toys do the same thing as this for faaar cheaper (although frankly I don't really see the utility of using a flexible dry palette in the first place, since any dried paint that won't scrub off isn't going to interfere with your painting anyway).
Anyone here used enamel washes before? What do you think of them?
>>94045510Cool kit. I like the orks with the bolted plates.
>>94044481>>94044501>gw could give us new models for every faction in the game>cut the price of everything in half>and not even see a significant loss in profits>instead we get a funny plateWonderful
>>94045561nids are just straight fucked for the next 5 years
>>94045647I hate that all of this is true.
>>94045454>Investigate my enemies!>NO NOT LIKE THAT!>and so we went to war
>>94045661Sorry Nidbro even though we could move to digital codexes and help you, we won’t. Guess you have to pirate or have a shit codex for years
>>94045049>>94044828I'd say the Tau Lascannon analogues are their Railguns
>>94045561Your army only has potential to be fixed while they are still in their index. Just look at what happened to Deathguard, Drukhari, Votann, or Imperial Guard. Huge changes to their detachments.AdMech did actually get an army rule change six months after their codex though, which is highly unusual but was massively cried out for that AdMech was horrifically fucked.
are 3 eyed lizard frogs good for you?
>>94045322you mean the sauce is spicy
>>94045552Love the patch. Would I impress my crush who is a cashier at my local supermarket if I showed up wearing ray-bans and a flight jacket with the patch?
>>94045038You get the jump pack death company captain and the vanilla jump pack chaplain that will surely be squatted next edition

I get they don't really work balance wise but are people generally willing to do a short 500 point game just so I can learn the basics? It's going to be a while before I have a full 1000 points and I'm sure I'd make a fool of myself managing so many units on my first game.
I'd forgot how much of a shitshow this was. I mean holy hell Lufgt what the fuck do you think you're doing.
>>94045711Good one anon
>>94045870There's always people happy to run into games at 500 at any local, just don't expect to get a lot of repeat offers and expect it to be a learning experience more than a game
>>94045870>people generallyThe only people that matter in your case are the ones you'll actually be playing with, I'd ask themFor what it's worth I'd be happy to, but who the fuck am I

>>94045893what you really need is to wash your ass>Verification not required.
>sanguinary guard preorders go on preorder without any major changes to the kit following customer feedback announced Bangle bros… did we lose?
>>94045875The initial attacks on shipment were an Inquisition false flag on behalf ofnthe Karthans
>>94045941you lost the moment you picked any marines as your army
>>94045949Why would I choose an npc army?
>>94045969I guess they're easy to find and cheap? Plenty on the second-hand market since they're in every starterLots of models to pick from, easy to paint, lots of options for doing basically what you want with themForgiving army to play, not too pinishing when you make mistakesThat's why a lot of NPCs play them I guess

Is air force stuff in 40k fun? I've never seen any discussion on here about aeronautica so my impression of it doesn't go beyond "it's like x-wing but 40k."
>>94046022Aaaaand of course it’s some ugly dyke.
>>94046022As much as I love my VRB, aeronautica and its models have had disasterous effects 40k.
>>94046094You need conversion therapy
>>94045941I'm confused. You thought GW was just Not going to release the kit?
>>94045893Adorkable
>>94046049explain?
>>94046022The Aeronautica game is pretty meh and I remember people had some strong opinions on flying units back beforethe soft reboot.
>>94046209Flyers/Aircraft all got shoved into the rules for 40k in 5th/6th edition and they have never worked properly and have always been either mega busted or completely worthless.
>>94045941Models are made years in advance, you can't change shit on a whim, even if GW wanted to.
>>94046022Love the models, but I wouldn't call the Aeronautica stuff "fun"
>>94046000>n-no upathetic xenostranny
>>94046196Yes. Surely we did not collectively send GW enough letters
We need more pirates in this setting. Pirate Eldar, Pirate Orks, Pirate CSM. They're all there in the lore, they just need more models.
>>94046288What would be the practical Aesthetical difference between a Piratical CSM and a regular roving CSM warband?
so is this for Votann part two or something for Krieg?
>>94046297Tricones, eye patches and peg legs, duh
>>94046371Its part for your mom
>>94046371It doesn't really match the Votann aesthetic. It's more likely to be from Necromunda.
>>94046382That's just Freebooters but with more spikes. Somehow.
>>94042606I haven't really paid attention to a Warhammer Day before, are they gonna be announcing what the Christmas battle boxes will be?
>>94046430probably not, they are usually announced in November.
>>94046438NTA but weren't they announced really soon last year? Like october soon?
>>94046371Krieg. Votann mole launcher looks different.Unless they want to give bigger mole launchers to votann, that's possible.
>>94046297More of an irregular and rag-tag look. Less direct Chaos iconography or religious/corrupt overtones, but lean in the direction of wealth, status, looted finery, battle trophies, almost a bit Apocalypse Now, men gone rogue on the frontier. They're here for the glory, the hunt, the filthy lucre and for themselves. A general sense of irreverence in the kitbashing.
>>94046430https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/CXuV2HyY/the-warhammer-preview-online-warhammer-day-2023-all-the-reveals/Last year it was Necrons and AdMech codex and models, Kill-Team Salvation box, and AoS stuff like CoS new models.
>>94046011How based of her.
>>94046011The fact that she knew what a Space Marine was should have clued you in to try and talk to her more.You fumbled, anon.
>>94045510>>94045557>>94045631>24 USD for 3 sprues of skullsGranted its like ten pennies per skull but still
>>94046011>why are you playing space marines in space marines 2?Yeah, why?
>>94046557>space marines 2>there are space marines too
>>94046578It just doesn't make sense, it doesn't add up
What's the deal with Killteam? Is it just Necromunda but with special forces instead of gangs? Is it good? Are the killteam models useable in full-scale 40k? How different are the rules?Would you recommend playing Kill Team as like an entry point into 40k before expanding out to a full army?
>>94046556I mean the citadel skulls box is 40 dollars for only 100 more skulls
>>94046591Kill Teams is more like Warcry than Necromunda. It's pretty fun if you like skirmish games, most of the time you can use the models in 40k and the rules are much different in that the unit profiles are way different compared to 40k and even Necromunda.40k Necromunda was called Shadow War Armageddon.
>>94046619>Kill Teams is more like Warcry than NecromundaI'm not familiar with Warcry either, unfortunately.
>>94046591>>94046619I wish I could play something like 40k Necromunda without being attached to a particular world or even a particular Campaign Book (looking at you Malstrains who are only playable in secundus scenarios)
>>94046578>you play as a Space Marine in Space Marine>you play as a Space Marine 2.0 in Space Marine 2
>>94046619>>94046632But thank you for the information as well! Sorry.
>>94046591>What's the deal with Killteam?Skirmish 40kIs it just Necromunda but with special forces instead of gangs?Somewhat? it's much more technical but has no narrative rules>Is it good?Yes, it's honestly much more fun than 40k, you make a lot more decisions, the game is decided by strategy instead of listbuilding (though there is almost no listbuilding, sadly) and games are way shorter>Are the killteam models useable in full-scale 40k? How different are the rules?yes, except Gellarpox are legends. Generally you ignore most of the model specific wargear, so units feel like infantry with one or two distinguishing features in 40k>Would you recommend playing Kill Team as like an entry point into 40k before expanding out to a full army?absolutely
>>94046408Spike boyz are notoriously jealous of orky power.
>>94046632That's alright. Typically models will have more granular stats such as having up to 7 or 8 wounds on human models and it's more of an "I go/you go" thing where your models do all of their stuff as per their activation.>>94046633Me too, I really really like the idea of laying out a game like that with more crunchy rules and everything. I think you could use something like Shadow War Armageddon as a springboard for it.
>>94046651>I think you could use something like Shadow War Armageddon as a springboard for it.I'll keep it in mind anon, ty
>>94046011Would've been based if it'd happened.
I haven't played since 6th ed. Are all vehicles running Monstrous Creature rules now, i.e. super high toughness with a lot of wounds and a save, and now anti-tank weapons deal multiple wounds at once?I was always let down by how shitty Dreads were but with these new rules the Dreads seem good.
>dad does scale model stuff>talking to him about upcoming hobby projects>mention building a kill team board for the new edition>he says he might want to try playingholy fuck its finally happening
>>94046824Pretty much, yeah
>>94046868be sure to give him a simple but strong team, maybe angels of death or kommandos, or if he wants to use historical models, kasrkin, they are super simplified now.
>>94046635>Space marine 3: AssmarineSoon
I'm cleaning up and repairing this model I got from someone who found it while cleaning their house, I got it 90% cleaned up but unfortunately the little support rods that connect the breastplate to the back of the jaw of this royal warden were snapped off when I received it. I decided to just trim them down completely as I didn't have any bits I could have used to mimic them, do you think it looks okay as-is or does it look a little bare?
>>94046868>dad goes to the shops for hobby supplies and milk>ready at my desk for when he returns>its only been 11 years
>>94046958Regular royal warden for comparison.
New>>94046987>>94046987>>94046987
>>94046958Looks good
>>94046958If you're super anxious about it (personally I could barely tell before you provided the other pic), you could maybe buy a pair of mechanical pencils and disassemble them for tiny mechanical parts to stick in.
>>94044564I feel like Necrons are perfect note wise except for the crypteks. I hate their stupid chins
>>94047004>>94047010Thanks, I won't worry about it for now, then. It'll probably bother me less once everything is primed and base coated.
>>94046882Damn, that's so much better. Are Redemptor Dreads as good as they seem then? A big tanky unit with shittons of ranged firepower.
>>94045234How dare you insult the slop of my homeland. You've sowed your last potato and shat in the blue cupboard.
>>94045511>Please show me where the episode was presented as being about the Sister of Silence.https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/T0CXkls4/tithes-episode-2-a-sister-of-silence-stars-in-this-new-animated-trailer/>>94045511>These are animations to help sell plastic toyswhich is why they're about lore dynamics that have nothing to do with the tabletop, like herding people into the black ships or retrieving the geneseeds of the fallen, or delivering cargo to the administratum
>>94043507It's the classic meme man, Mark D. Saint Cyril. You should make more memes featuring him using this image.
>>94047274>To most of the Imperium, the Sisters of Silence don’t exist. They’re no longer a formalised order in their own right, the hidden survivors work in the shadows as members of the Adeptus Astra Telepathica, and as silent emissaries of the Custodian Guard. That means they often lean on others to enforce their authority – and when accompanied by a towering, golden Custodian, that’s easy enough…Oh look, the article you quoted explaining that the episode is going to have a Custodes bossing people about because the Sister of Silence doesn't have the authority on her own. >which is why they're about lore dynamics that have nothing to do with the tabletop, like herding people into the black ships or retrieving the geneseeds of the fallen, or delivering cargo to the administratumAnd isn't it funny how all those episodes feature the characters getting into fights where all the combatants happen to be conveniently available to purchase from Games Workshop in the form of plastic model kits?
>>94043808That's probably the only way to use a psyker in a super heavy company - stick him to the hull like another gun. There's probably a very lucky psyker in a baneblade regiment who is desperately hoping nobody thinks of that and ruins his comfortable gig.
