>>94083257>TQYes.
>>94083257>TQUnfortunately no even though I'd like to. There's no LGS in my city and I don't have any friends. I really enjoy painting though
>>94083257That isn't Malice.
>>94083325You mean the emperor *snort*
>>94083257Vashtorr will be the 5th in 40k, not the rat
>>94083354Status of a god is for non-losers.
Space marine and custodes players take it up the ass. That is the definitive truth.
>>94083348Erm acktually I think you mean the Dark King??? erm actually I think you mean Samus???? Erm acutally I think you mean the fucking evil ass piss drestroyer of hell....
Whatsup fags.
>>94083380
>>94083368Then why is Nurgle a god?
>>94083257Yes, though I've still got a big pile to get through but they do at least have a undercoat on them if I'm playing a game whilst using them.Example in the image is my defiler which only had an undercoat on it because I haven't got round to painting it fully yet compared to Haarken and the Raptors
>>94083257Someone should update this with the new darkmech stuff
>Emperors children and krieg confirmed>No xenos outside of orksThey're gonna soup my fucking clowns and I don't know what to do
>>94083377>>94083348Consider:
>>94083413I fucking love Tempura Persons Malice Sama. She's so dramatic
>>94083407
>>94083413I'm joining the war on chaos on the side of chaos!
>>94083422>spiky necron construct>void shields look like pimplesthat's a big bug
My first miniature is about to get washed. It's crazy how much worse a model looks in a photo, this looks pretty much perfect to my eye but I can already notice a bunch of imperfections now that I have a picture of it.Anyways, the game plan is to wash it with nuln oil, glaze the arms, legs, and chest with a watered down mix of brown and orange, hit those areas with agrax earthshade, do a very light and gentle dry brush with iron hands steel on the extremities along with a brush highlight on some of the harder to reach spots, and then finally do the glowing parts with a layer of base white and a layer or two of tesseract glow.
>>94083411Sound like your clowns need more soup. I’m sure some ratlings has some.
Why is Amazon so much cheaper than online or in store prices
>>94083422

>>94083354>VashtorrDENIED
>>94083440>It's crazy how much worse a model looks in a photo,Your model looks fine, your photo just suckskeep up the good work bro
>>94083440magnifier led lamps is what you need, anon. Trust me
>>94083411>>No xenos outside of orksThe rumours for eldar are huge:Aspect warriors, phoenix lords (except karandras), yriel and corsairs, vyper, exodites in kill team
>>94083422First it was the negavolt cultists with the cybernetic eye stalks and now they have one as well. Seems like its a core design of them
>>94083447It's just Legions Imperialis, not something to be envious of.
>>94083422Are they going to make one in the normal scale for HH?
>>94083440You did your research that's for sure. Looks nice and clean too even if crons arent particularly difficult to paint. Keep at it, anon
>>94083469Where the fuck is 40k legions
>>94083469Imperialis was fun the one time i tried it, i'd play it if literally anyone near me did
>>94083452That's the spirit! One of the corner stones of Malice's doctrine is weird self destructive impulses. Have you ever been sitting in your car or truck or whatever as passenger and suddenly got the urge to roll down the window and chuck your phone out on to the highway for no reason? That's Malice telling you to do that shit.
>>940834862nd edition LIgma, maybe? Like with OG AT and SM.
>>94083453>gets crushed by the rock and flees screaming>vashtorr achieves his goals 5 minutes later anyway
i made and painted my first two marines todaythey look nice next to my dreadGod I hope I get faster at this
>>94083519Airbrush then paint details
>>94083483>even if crons arent particularly difficult to paintThe new Warriors can be absolute bastards if you want to get all the details in because of whatever chucklefuck thought all the new Necron stuff should be broken and chipped.Forunately 2ft rule holds strong.
>>94083445No, they need about 5 more models to actually round out a list>>94083465That was revealed way before this, almost a month ago, and even then, not until 2025
>>94083511Vashtorr is so fucking shit. How does this guy have a reputation in universe?
>>94083526>AirbrushNo thanks, I like girls
>>94083452I'm gonna be real with you, I'm not sure if a Malice victory would result in them becoming the one dominant Chaos God or the destruction and elimination of the Warp entirely. Its interesting to think about though.
>>94083458what is wrong with his leg
>>94083572He's a nogames having a melty.
>>94083411Cegorach if you can hear please save me. Please save me Cegorach. I'm asking you, please save me. Please get these Monkeigh away from me! Please
>>94083572Nothing to get bent out of shape about
>>94083396
>>94083556>First big engagement he takes he broken sacred homeworld of THE first founding legion and turns it into his own personal Daemon world>Said world has the power to bore through the webway and can travel the galaxy at will>Corrupts Tau Tech have their suits turn on the pilot>Corrupts imperium tech, making hive world aircon turn people into masses of flesh and monsters>Can corrupt necron pylons>is a sign that chaos isn't stagnent and that it can have powerful daemons not tied to the big 4>Has a cool hellish sounding mutli layered male and female voices at his announcement trailer (what sold me on him)>Is a hell smithIts a mystery anon
>>94083556by getting shit done
>>94083572Its probably a pushfit peg under that leg and he's twisted it to get it to fit in the wrong position like an APE
>>94083572Spooky
Anyone keep their first painted mini with their current stuff? This rat was painted in the early 2000’s boomer era.
>>94083621>early 2000s>boomerAnon, I...
How did they break the WarCom site so fucking hard?
>>94083621>early 2000’s>boomer eraLiteral millenial.
>>94083411SHUT THE FUCK UPNYOUNGAGGOT YOU COCK SUCKERS ALL GOT YOUR CODEXES BEFORE CHAOS EVEN MANAGED TO GET A SINGLE ONE (1(UNO)) OUT OF THE FUCKING GATE. WHERE THE FUCK IS MY WORLD EATER OR CHAOS DEMON CODEX JAMES? I DONT WANT TO PLAY THE SAME SHIT NO MO
>>94083591Like, if they're gonna take away our fucking movement tricks, then at least give us something tough that can slug in melee, give us a 2+ invuln 1W character with 3 s14 melee attacks or something, jfc
>>94083630Self deprecating joke, in summation I’m old brah.
>>94083631yesterday the intern fucked up when uploading images to a postI'm going to bet the issue was with putting up the livestream visible in the warcom web page
God they're so fucking incompetent
>>94083641Aeldari still don't have a codex and harlequins don't even have a fucking index. We might not even get rules this edition. Shut your fucking mouth, you at least have a full roster.
>perturabo serves vashtorr instead of chaos undividedWould that fix him?
>>94083610>>First big engagementNot counting the Battle of Malakbael, where Vashtorr was present but behaved rather more like an observer, I think the Battle of Idolatros would be the third major engagement Vashtorr was an active party to in the Arks of Omen campaign.
Susoga! Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, a tactics RPG made by Owlcat who also made the critically acclaimed Pathfinder video games, is now on sale in celebration of Warhammer season. Also the season pass DLC is recommended instead of the individual DLCs since they are at the same price but season pass has future update.https://store.steampowered.com/app/2186680/Warhammer_40000_Rogue_Trader/
>>94083662>Perturabo signed away his soul to Vashtorr to stop the wound Fulgrim gave him from killing him and is desperately bolting more and more daemon engines to himself to keep him alive so he doesn't end up going through the Forge of Souls and becoming a lobotomized slave to Vashtorr foreverkino
>>94083621Funny enough I actually unearthed my first mini a couple of weeks ago along with a small number of my first army.I'm thinking about taking the recent Battleforce reveal as a sign to start them up again
>>94083662Give him a pertymobile and then we're seeing kino
>>94083661>EldariThose fags shouldn't even get one so soon>QuinsLol stay squatted>Full rosterLol
why are eldar hated?
>>94083662You just actively made him worse.
>>94083679He’s gorgeous anon. Definitely get him some new buddies.
>>94083648Some of the links they posted on FB are also wrong. They lead to videos that don't match the content of the post. It's a bit of a clownshow right now.
>>94083690Always fear the pointed ear.
>>94083681>"full roster"yeah, sure. Tell me how many datasheets WE have again? Now how many do harlequins have? Oh, right, it's fucking EIGHT
>>94083690monkeys are jealous
>>94083662The most appropriate relation would be partnership rather than servitude, and I'm saying this as someone who doesn't shy from calling out ironfags as loyalist in denial whenever they want their chaos marines without chaos.But yeah, having perturabo achieve demonhood artificially via the obliterator virus and a deal with vashtorr would be ideal.
>>94083703got banned from another gameshop, eldarfag?
>>94083690Very shitty initial release with very little sense for how their supposed to fit into the setting. They are much better now but I would like to see some more auxiliaries rather than just jerking off the blue man group. Stingwings and Kroot are cool. I would like to see a new model for human auxiliaries.
>>94083702World eaters only have 6, and quins don't even deserve more than 2
>>94083711Anon...
>>94083716My brains are scrambled eggs rn my bad. I totally fucked up.
>>94083690Worst army archetype, worst fanbase.
>>94083690They've been gamebustingly OP in like half of the editions to date and so they've gotten a reputation as one of the WAAC factions
>>94083712No, you can pull from chaos to get more models, you have the entire CSM range to get models. Now tell me. How many is that?
KriegKucks lost to Ratgods. Glorious.
Is there ever a reason to run a squad of 10 Intercessors instead of 2x5 and spread for objectives
>>94083662I think to fix him you could make him one of the Forgemasters for the Forge of Souls, along with whoever is the biggest most powerful darkmech leader and other daemons of the Forge. Forgemasters being whose in charge after their leader Vashtorr the Arkifane (which literally means leader of the shrine) was kicked out.Another anon suggested this idea and it captured my imagination. That way the Forge of Souls can be tied to mutiple different characters and daemons and not just Vashtorr making it more interesting and have personaility/ Vashtorr being an exiled forgemaster as punishment for trying to reach godhood and breaking the truce/ non alignment of the forge to the big 4 also explains his 'sudden' apperance. Then we can get power plays and conflict over whose working with the exiled one. And different daemon designs since some don't like how he looks like hes naked wearing an apron.On Perturabo it makes him far more interesting, explains how hes a deamon primarch but not tied to the 4, he has been a daemon primarch since Realms of Chaos so I'd say its central to his 40k identity. Gives him agency as he hasnt just been on his daemon world for 40k years doing nothing but climbing the infernal ranks and a controlling and leader of a vital immaterial realm. Also gives a good reason for Iron Warriors to have unqiue and special daemon engines, warp viruses like the obliterators while still not being a pray and faith heavy legion.
>>94083726I'm not convinced that's the actual reason since most anons in here never once played the game under any edition.
>>94083734>You can pull from the blah blah blahHow about you pull your dark eldar raider ship from your gaping anus to play with your clowns.
>>94083750You sound really upset, anon.
>>94083746Assault Ints maybe. Standard Ints hell no
>>94083662I'll just note that nobody has these dumbass discussions about Lorgar
>>94083747Vashtorr wasn't kicked out of the Forge though?
Boy I sure can't wait to go to the warhammer community website and read about all the exciting news coming out
>>94083756Because logar is perfect. Sidenote, I wish we had a model for Erebus also.
>>94083758yeah but this is a small narrative change that I think is cool. Not kicked out of the warp but out of the direct leadership of the Forge of Souls, hence hm being more active in real space
>>94083756He's still a bitch, he just knows his place and stays in his cuck tower
>>94083603
>>94083780>stays in his cuck towerLorelet secondary.
>>94083737I like the leader who's clearly based off solid snake
>>94083690Historically it's because the glass cannon nature of the army made them always hard to balance so they have always alternated between periods where they're game-breaking op and periods where they're shit to play, of course the former scar the playing community longer.Furthermore, since warhammer is a setting that tries to have everyone as inimical one way or another, and since warhammer still ultimately has humans as protagonists and since the marine fanbase has some deep seated insecurity issues they express with exaggerated revenge porn, then elves with their innate superiority and arrogance become the ideal target for attacks.Finally, in more recent years, the warhammer community has been plagued by newfags who make their favourite faction their own personality, in /40kg/ specifically this mental illness has been most evident with the recent slaaneshi shitposter, who attacks the eldar and projects whatever is necessary onto eldarfags, in order to justify hating on the eldar.It is also humorous to poke at the incredible age of some parts of the range and the seeming curse they have regarding their fate in almost every book or narrative, but here it's one of those things where you laugh in order to not cry at the terrible management.
I don't really care for the Christmas boxes ngl. I need chaos.
a lot of words to play innocenttypical victim complex-displaying subhuman eldarfag
>>94083783After he stayed in there for ten thousand years it's fair game to ridicule hime over the fact
>>94083465>tactical speedo
>>94083794
Should I get Darktide for 20$?I'd assume at that pricepoint hopping in at this point wouldn't be that bad
>>94083829Sounds like Corax is a failure that couldn't do anything to stop Lorgar from reading his books.Especially now that Lorgar openly leads a massive army around the dark half of the galaxy while Corax does nothing.
>>94083837Why do they have it out for free
>>94083737Jokes on you I’ll just add the hobbits’s to my Krieg army.
>>94083837
>Same symbol as HH era>gold and purple>No real indicators if we're getting BDSM EC or SDR&R EC>yfw they're just the posh 30k designs but the Mahreens are old and ugly
>>94083846Sounds like omega copium for worst legion. Arulian and his sons are cuck bois.
>>94083747>Forgemasters being whose in charge after their leader Vashtorr the Arkifane (which literally means leader of the shrine) was kicked out.what makes you think vashtorr was kicked out?
>>94083863Hate to break it to you but we were never getting BSDM/NSFW Slaanesh/EC. This is a model toy range that GW wants to sell to literal children. They would always want to compromise on this point.
What is the most awkward encounter (you) have had at your LGS?
>>94083863Guaranteed someone somewhere will have a melty they no longer look like pinhead on a budget
I don't quite understand the Space Marine codexA solid third of the codex is just statlines for Marine leaders in different armour (Can't this just be optional point-buy in one dataslate?). There are like 10 different units that have nothing but bolters and maybe one rule, and you'd think that's alright, but then for a few points more I can run a squad of 10 plasma guys who have enough firepower to instantly kill whatever they look at, or a Dread that's doing its best to cosplay a 6th ed Riptide. I can either run a squad of 10 bolter cucks or for no point increase(?) give them jetpacks and then run them with a HQ to instantly kill whatever they get to in melee.Like, 90% of the stuff here is straight garbage, a solid third of the codex is just named characters/HQ options and the stuff that isn't shit is really busted.Why are Melee Cents even a thing?
>>94083908>There are like 10 different units that have nothing but bolters and maybe one ruleCool, name all 10
>>94083756I think lorgar shouldn't be a normal demon prince but have achieved effective demonhood by becoming the host for multiple powerful greater demons.
>>94083908Cause it’s an army for booger eaters
>>94083908Because they can trick someone into buying 10 primaries lieutenants with slightly different datasheets.
>>94083946doinators
>>94083955Hold up now, not all booger eaters play space marines.
>>94083863>Fulgrim>Lucius>Eidolon>Phoenix Guard>Noise MarinesHere's your codex, bwo
>>94083750>BAjeet can only thing of gaping anusesIn character tbqh.
>>94083991You forget Fabius Bile
>>94083946Infiltrators, incursors, intercessors, eliminators, tactical marines, reivers, scouts, aggressors, heavy intercessors, terminators.
What's the list for the Dark Angel battleforce?
>>94084005You're right. I did forget him.That makes the list even funnier, imo.
>>94084006Oh so you're just a moron, got it
>>94084007It's on the Warhammer Community site, anon!Just load it up and look!
>>94083838The game is pretty good now. The last update finally gave a crafting system that works. If you like L4D2 games, it's fun. Unfortunately, they push a rotating, FOMO, cash shop and overall are slow to give meaningful updates.
>>94083809I found a good post from the archive to add onto what you've said. It made the spammer have a melty which is pretty lulzy.
>>94083946IntercessorsIntercessorsIntercessorsPhobos IntercessorsGravis IntercessorsNaked IntercessorsIntercessors sitting downIntercessors standing upIntercessors with two boltersIntercessors but fucked up and evil
>>94084021great idea anon! here I go!
it's down
>>94083995pathetic attempt at deflection, eldartranny
>>94084029>what you've said
>>94084029That post leaves out that sometimes, the tools Elder get are sometimes overtuned to high hell. People didn't hate them in 6th because of high complexity shenanigans, people hated them because Wraithknights and Wave Serpents were genuinely obscene.
>>94083662Pert needs to serve the Horned Rat.
>>94084092Would be the funniest shit
>>94084092He already swore off the emperor though
>>94083863ideally you would have one unit dedicated to full BDSM monstrous fuckersone unit dedicated to eerily elegant and beautiful perfection and one unit with aspects of both blending together which is why I would say terminators are a bad fit for EC, instead I'd have noise marines, creations of bile and something completely new
What if you wanted to check out the reveals but Warhammer Commmunity said>500 | Internal Server Error.
>>94084092and then he turns himself into a picklepicklerabofunniest shit I've ever saw
I still think Hashut would be the best 5th chaos god in 40k. Greed, tyranny and cruelty aren't really covered by the others
>>94083948Thats dumb like eightbound WE
>>94084122hashut is a dwarf god only
Do the combat patrols come with all the options each individual boxed element has?
>>94084092Pertratbro.
>>94084107A melee unit with a pallet of poisons, they consider their victims to be a canvas, and the death the culmination of the art.Crunch wise, fast moving melee unit that has a variety of attack profiles, being able to inflict fear, lower toughness, ect. A bit Deldar adjacent...
>>94084029>the people hating on eldar are just a single spammerpathetic schizo
>>94084122Thats Slanesh/Tzinch.
>>94084142Not really.
>>94084135Not all of them no
>>94084140>A bit Deldar adjacent...There should be at least one subfaction of dark eldar who actually collaborate with slaaneshi marines
>>94084107Creations of Bile would be good as one of those 3-man monstrous infantry units GW likes. In the books he also creates a race of genetically-enhanced human soldiers which would be good as cultist-equivalents
Day 25 of exercising every day until the Emperor's Children Codex is released.And what a day it is! Emperor's Children, confirmed for next year! Our long wait is nearly at an end!And the Eidolon novel went up for preorder, and the box of stuff I ordered to start prepping for the EC release arrived!Slaanesh fans can't stop winning.
>people keep shilling greyknights for having a good combat patrol>Only 14 minisI don't even care that the minis are old, but give me a full squad of the terminators and inceptors or whatever the fuck those are called. I expect that much for fucking $170.
is gw going to print out more Kriegers anytime soon? I don't see why ork kommandos get favor but they don't.
>>94084156The Coven of Thirteen Scars, the Kabal of the Last Hatred, and the Cult of Wrath Unbound have all associated with the Emperor's Children in the past.
>>94084165Maybe if you reload the store again and again you'll surprise it and the contents will change
>>94084175No
>>94084175Krieg has like 3-4 killteam already
>>94084176But what can you do rulewise?
>>94084163Post tummy
>>94084148Unfortunate. Do you know if the dark angels and space marine combat patrols do? I'm finally taking the plunge on making a new army of my dudes and those would be fairly cost effective kits.
>>94083904When I ran into a guy buying an armful of kits for himself right after he told me he had to drop out of the secret Santa I was organizing because he was trying to save money.
>>94084175They said in their pseudo-roadmap that Krieg would be getting new plastic units, what that means I dunno. Maybe a command squad/death riders/engineers?
>>94084198I will when I have the EC Codex in my hand.
>>94083794>>94083837>Militaires Sans Chaussures
>>94084206SM one doesn't, its just the pushfit kits from Levi.
>>94083904When I had a panic attack for no reason in the middle of a game and had to flee the store to calm down. They were nice about it at least
>>94084212The youtube rumor monger says it's going to be a pretty big release. Enough so you really can do a full Krieg army without having to convert any Cadian kits.
>>94084223That's not snake.
>>94084223https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4om7AuID6BY
>>94084206Space Marine combat patrol is absolute garbo, do not touch
How do you feel about Tyranids being the new Big Bad of 40k over Chaos?
>>94084230I already have my based forge world krieg instead of the lame-ass plastic redesigns so dont care
>>94084192this is what I get for using lgs
>>94084249They're not, so I don't.
>>94083662Just retcon the retcon of him being so anti-chaos now. It was an idiotic decision considering he was always supposed to become a daemon prince.Or just say "tough shit" and have a chaos gods force him into daemonhood like magnus and mortarion.>>94083948Except it's a fundamental part of his character that he was too much of a hypocritical bitch to enter the warp himself and instead sent others first to be possessed.
>>94084255Cool, I'm happy for you

>>94084255post them
>>94084249As a tyranid fan, I think orks deserve to be the main antagonistic posterboys:tyranids are the alien threatchaos are the enemy within necrons are the ancient evil orks are the best possible frienemies you could always count on in any circumstance doesn't matter when, doesn't matter where, doesn't matter how, and it never gets old but we both know GW wants chaos to be the main big bad because their writers cannot actually write
>>94084230>Enough so you really can do a full Krieg army without having to convert any Cadian kits.I mean you already can
While I read guard stories I always imagine few guardsmen chewing on tobacco or such.Lho appears to be everything from tobacco to weed.>Guardsman is out of lho>Buys local brand>Is high as a kite
Just realized all the lore of things claiming they have shards of the Emperor's armor is pretty much exactly like how every Catholic church back in the day claimed to have a piece of the True Cross.
>>94084249Yawn
What is everyone painting tonight, just finished some crusaders
Common Sense
>>94083610There is only one who can defeat such a terrible Daemon...
>>94084340why did he bandage his gun
>>94084346I still find it funny that him and like 5 grey knights got together to kill most of the death guard veterans then robbed Mortarion
>>94083556I think he's just cool
>>94084322There is shrine worlds built around the holy prepuce
>>94084360common sense
new 40k guy here. i have a question regarding painting. are there any tips for how to make my models look presentable despite having very shaky hands, and general poor painting ability as a result? I'm absolutely adoring the hobby so far, and building and painting would be, in theory, my favourite part, but I'm just so bad at fine motor skills that I'm finding it really stressful since I keep making my models look like shit. I've only tried painting a couple of models, and they all look hideous, since I'm just not precise enough with such a tiny brush on a tiny model. I love my world eaters, and I want them to look cool, especially since I've put some time into coming up with my own custom warband idea, but my physical ability is holding me back. any bros have advice? I looked into painting services but they're so fucking expensive, to get the patrol + angron painted it was like £3000. I'm looking for some cheaper options, and will probably just get angron himself painted and do the best I can with my other troops, but if there are any good techniques for getting models looking good with minimal detail, or other such ways to bypass my shitty hands, I'd love to hear them.

>>94084224>>94084243Thanks, I'll steer clear.
>>94083257My friends all live interstate these days, and they never got into battlegaming.My dad, who got me into warhams fanta originally is usually up for a small game of 3rd ed. For 40k my lgs has decent group of regulars and a bit over an hours drive away there's an even bigger store with a much larger player base.
>>94084360>>94084340>It's the same dude but decades later
>>94084249I will imagine Tyranids are the Jack Garland of 40k.
>>94084402You could give Jack Garland and inquisitor's hat and he'd fit right in
>>94084340whoever this fucking retard artist is needs beaten until he learns how thick the guns in 40k are
>>94084377Unironically, go check out /wip/. Is the shaking due to nervousness or something else? Shaking can decrease as you build up the muscle control and skill. Supporting your elbow on a solid surface helps a lot. Having a beer can help if it you're nervous to just calm down. The other kicker is just having less caffeine before painting
>>94084377>How to Paint with Tremorshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqp76vAJu9gMandatory viewing even for people who don't have shaky hands. Proper bracing is crucial.

>>94084411Yeah, he's amazing at Marine armor and proportions (was probably used as reference for SM2's models) but he keeps drawing bolters as noodles.
>>94084411Looks like it could easily be .75cal
>scale creep isn't re-
>>94084445trooscalers making godawful models will never stop being mildly amusing
>>94084416I don't know if it's nervousness or not, probably not considering I don't feel nervous emotionally when it happens. it mainly just happens when I'm trying to keep my hands still for fine detail, they tend to wobble all over the place, which when painting a mini is undesirable for obvious reasons
>>94084456One way I try to reduce shakiness is by putting my wrists together, it might help you.

>>94084451Didn't the truescale movement win with Primaris?Why is it still a thing?
>>94083908Congratulations, you just found about Space Marine bloat because GW wants to sell 10 different flavours of gravis and phobos slop and 50 different primaris lieutenants while also taking entire editions to drip feed basic options like assault marines, assault marines with jump packs, devastator marines, terminators, sternguard veterans, and vanguard veterans.
>>94084377Just drybrush all your trim first and then fill in the flat panels after
>>94083465The sad thing is the whole new eldar range will sell less than the humble intercessor squad because no one like elves.
>>94083908It would be funny if it wasn't so sad
Awful...
>>94084445This isn't truescale anymore
>>94084338Working on the “pyre brother” leader for my crusader see squad.
>>94084487Intercessors are one of the worst selling marine kits because people get them so easily from a hundred different box sets and cheap as hell on the secondary market besides.The god damned tactical marine still outsells intercessors.
>>94084499I know. Thats why the eldar situation is so sad.

>>94084223>A man denied his booster seat
>>94084487Maybe if GW put some effort into the Eldar line then new players would be interested in buying them
>>94084489I wanna smash the Kroosy.
>>94084514You know that won't happen. Eldar has potential but GW will just update all the kits with CAD guardian base + decorations to make them almost look like aspect warriors. You know they'll fuck up the poses too.
>>94084530That's why I specified "effort".We know they're going to shit out the bare minimum to get Eldar players off their backs for a couple years.
>>94084338I have finished model number 2 and 3 to go with my dread. My first three models are doing alright. Next up, the rest of the Intercessor squad.
>>94084489what happens is she eats human females? hahaha imagine
>>94084530I've thought the eldar refreshes have been pretty good so far? The cosairs especially are cool
>>94084530>Eldar has potentialEldar sell better than BA do right now, they're fine. GW won't let go of Goodwin's sculpts, hence why everything is just Guardian bodies with doodads attached.
>>94084561>Eldar sell better than BA do right nowimagine believing this lmao
>>94084561Eldar more like smelldar

>>94084564>>94084570Sounds like you're having a melty.
>>94084556Anyone who brings up CAD is a nomodels just ignore
>>94084230You only need a relatively small amount of kits to do that so I wouldn't be surprised if it's true.>basic infantry squad, can also pull double duty as engineers if you throw in an extra sprue for it>heavy weapons squad>command squad>probably a separate IC kit because GW loves those, most likely a Marshall>rough riders and/or grenadiers if they're feeling extravagant, maybe a vehicle upgrade sprue as wellBut yeah, bare minimum for an all-Krieg army is just the core three infantry/HW/command kits and I'd say that's well within the scope of a big codex release, especially since one of those kits already exists.
>>94084607Infantry kit already exists from kill team too. There's a big artillery piece coming too
Is the Aspect Warriors being Guardian Armor plus greebles any different from primaris elites all being Tacitus/Phobos/Gravis/Terminator Armor plus greebles?
who was the greatest human to have ever lived in 40k?For me its Macharius
>>94084633Erebus.

>>94084643Tau lack downy feather pubes
>>94084313Da Jorker...
>>94084607With the single kits that exiats in plastic you can already make 980 points worth of Kriegsmen. If you add in the legal Resin stuff they can already run another 780 points of death riders and Krieg commanders for a total of 1760 before adding in tanks, which can totally count as Krieg stuff without conversion.
what are some of the different artillery units for different armies, specifically mortars? I know death guard have plagueburst crawlers and Tyranids get biovore with spore mines. what others are there? I'm putting together a list. i like mortars a lot.
>>94084663Imperial guard have too many options to list, but they are the premier artillery spam army whenever indirect fire is overpowered.
>>94084652Juvenile Kroot.
Can you run a GSC Patriarch as a Tyranid Broodlord? I really prefer the model of the Patriarch
Played agaist a Stompa today, you dont see that everyday
>>94084313The raped
>>94084674No, fundamentally different models.
>>94084674You could. You could even go one further and do a Malstrain Alpha. Just let your opponent know what the proxy is.
>>94084674No you'll be banned from ever playing again
>>94084663For Daemons, if a Soul Grinder is Nurgle-marked, it has the phlegm bombardment weapon, which counts as an indirect artillery weapon. CSM, WE, and TS have none.
>>94084674Yes Tyranids are supposed to be the creature creator kitbash faction, have some fun with them.
>>94083756Because Lorgar already won and left the table back in 30k.
will they introduce a new datasheet for those tankbusta models or nah?
Is there a simple and easy way to remove or reduce a wash?
>>94084716Not really why
>>94084675I like stompas
>>94084716Has it dried? If you fuck up and have a brush without paint on it, you can use it to absorb some of the wash, but it doesn't work well
>>94084725>>94084762Just the wash I mixed didn't look so good when I applied it in greater quantities across the model, once it dried. The test spot looked okay but I think that's because it had less of it on it, so more of the color underneath came through.
>>94084716Paint over it in the original colour, either drybrushing or a thicker coat depending on how much needs removing.
>>94084772Then you're going to need some 320 grit sandpaper
>>94083465Kill La Kill ass eldar

How is GW's website STILL broken. Are they truly this incompetent?
>>94085145How is any website still broken in this day and age? Stable web pages with full customization and search functions were figured out in the fucking 90s. It's just a fucking website, for God's sake. Are Indians software monkeys that bad?
>>94084905>Why couldnt the knight box be chaos knights fucks sakeI mean.. it technically can be.You can turn the big knight into a despoiler, the rest into wardogs and buy some actual chaos wardog kits to finish off the entire thing.Knights and Chaos Knights are neat from a modeling standpoint because there is very little that differentiates the two armies. All you need is some magnets and a few extra weapon bits to change loadouts.
>>94085145Hello,They hired me to fix it, but it's my day off.I'll work on it tomorrow, sorry.
Upon further inspection of the Christmas boxes I have recognized that I am not interested.

>>94085319Last time I went into a warhammer store there were 2 people picking up new models because of SM2.

I like how Space Marine players don’t understand basic storytelling devices and genuinely think one Space Marine is equivalent to like a hundred Tau or a hundred Eldar or a Hundred Orkz or a hundred Chaos Space Marines. Like people who watch WWE understand storytelling better than Space Marine players do, of course the “face” character is gonna win against the army of nameless faceless jobbers to hype them up. But this goes both ways depending on the story’s perspective.
>>94084706If the kit enables giving them all launchas, then it will have toThey've squeezed out PDF updates like that before
>>94085153But dont I need like several of the chaos knight sprues to match? I imagine internaly they're similar but outside, not so much.

>>94085375One Tau warrior can take down an entire legion of space marines with smart sniping and movement. He just repositions between shots.
>>94085375secondaries are the new market. GW preys upon those who are too ignorant to buy secondhand or from 3rd party sites.The former lead product designer said that their biggest spenders (besides 30 something year old balding whales) are aunts and moms buying something for their teenage son/nephew. they walk into the store and buy whatever the shopkeeper tells them to buy because they don't know any better. they get suckered into the 35 USD mould line remover.You have the 40k-tubers who all upload the same videos (complete with manscaped/squarespace sponsor segment) to blame for inducing frenzy and consoomerism with the release of space marine 2. You have been left behind. Sorry.

>>94085477Take the vaccine chud you'd rather be infected by demons?
>>94083690GW are retarded and refuse to change the game from I GO U GO so things like reactive movement and fragile-but-deadly units designed to trade up their points before dying will always be disproportionately valuable (especially in alpha strike scenarios), especially since they present a higher ceiling. Add in that Eldar have high mobility and are good at scoring, while many 40k players try to play the game like it's Halo Team Deathmatch and just want to table their opponent's armies and you can see the results. You don't see the same reeee elf hate in Kill Team because that game has alternating activations by default and the low model count means everybody having a bunch of specialists is the default, the way shooting and damage works is also different, same with scoring. Until 40k gets rid of IGOUGO getting up and walking away from the table for 40 minutes while your opponent jerks off playing Solitaire, people will always be ass mad about Fire and Fade and Phantasm mechanics. It's unavoidable.

Fellow Astartes... how do we respond?
>>94085425>Uses the term secondary >To describe someone buying new models for the tabletop game What did he mean by this
>>94085658They're not buying for themselves. How much clearer did he need to be? Granny doesn't know how anti-consumer GW is. She just sees things spoiled Little Timmy likes, so she pays out the nose to keep the little shit from throwing a tantrum on Christmas morning.
>>94085717Buying a product as a gift for someone else still not a secondary. Do you not know what that term means here.
I just asked this in the old thread like a retard, but does anyone here have a favorite Sororitas novel? I don't know where to start.
>>94085729>words only mean what I need them to meanTell me you're a troon without telling me you're a troon. He explained to you exactly what he meant and you're arguing semantics because he didn't read your weekly Tumblr update on vernacular pilpul.
>>94085834This retard is talking about trans people now. Fucking brain rot.
>>94084505As far as I got before bed. Highlights start tomorrow.
>>94085834Are you ok Outside of its original context of being elitist about playing bullet hell games, secondary has always meant someone that consumes the secondary media in a given franchise. In 40k's case a secondary would be someone that reads BL books or plays any of the video games and doesn't play the main tabletop game.
>>94085860Looking alright. You're steadily improving sallyanon.
>>94085389Chaos knights are just corrupted versions of regular knights. For example, the Knight Tyrant is just a differently colored Dominus Pattern knight. A War Dog Executioner is just an Armiger Helverin.It's not just common, but expected, for you to buy regular knights, paint them a different color and call them something else. That's literally how you create a Despoiler. The only exception these are the chaos-specific kits, like Karnivores and Abominants. But you can buy those independently. An ordinary CK army is ordinarily 10-12 wardogs, sometimes substituting a few with a big knight. So you can use literally everything in that box.
>>94085101Quit making me want to start Admech you slut.
>>94085915I guess I should have been more clear, I meant an abominant because I think its one of the coolest models in all of 40k.Im working on a chaos army, and Id love to fit in a knight and a couple dogs just for fun, not meta reasons or anything. A christmas box with them would have been the TITS.
>>94085883It's a common misconception that Games Workshop is a company that produces tabletop games. As clearly outlined in their investor statement Games Workshop is a company that produces MODELS that just so happen to be supported by various game systems.That is to say people who play 40k are, by definition, the biggest secondaries in the consumer sphere. The, again as outlined in Games Workshop investor statement, primaries of the Warhammer 40,000 property are those who participate in "The Hobby" that is 1) Collecting 2) Building 3) Painting 4) Playing 5) Reading.Which is to say the most PRIMARY Warhammer 40,000 is the individual with the most Games Workshop brand Warhammer 40,000 merchandise in their collection.

How will Fulgrims model be different to his HH other than not being resin, smaller wings or different placements for them to make it easier to carry to games Id imagine. What will their cultist chaff troops be anon? I'm hoping we get something more creative than 'BDSM themed cultists who LIKE being used a bullet fodder'. It'll be something new I think since DG and WE got whole new units made for them. The brand new darkmech spidertank for nu-epik and the focus of Vashtorr in 40k also makes me think Darkmech is also coming

How difficult are G(r)ey Knights to paint?t. noobI like their drip fr fr no cap but lots of small greeble scares me
>>94086090I find them very easy to paint, the greebles are pretty easy to pick out and usually only a couple extra colors. Though I would recommend maybe waiting until GW updates them.. or do what I did and upscale them yourself with kitbashing.

GW does know the point of a 'bundle box' is that it should be cheaper than the shit they put in the box, right?Even if we match the combat patrol to their own webstore prices, it would be 179 bucks for all those kits vs. 168 for the combat patrol, which isn't even a deal. Did they just decide that "fomo boxes are bad for our bottom line" or something?

There is literally no reason why Victrix Guard can no longer be attached to all ultramarine characters. There was no reason to make them something which can only exist hanging off of calgar's nuts.

>>94086321so why was this made into a limited model instead of something added to the normal ratling squad? it's not like the battle chiwawa or the guy heating a sandwich on a power pack make it any less silly
>>94086339>chiwawaYou can't be serious lmao
>>94086241Yea retart
>>94086338I was just surprised at how bad it was. They couldn't even put 10 infernus marines in, they put 5 in? Like it would hurt their bottom line or something.
>>94086022>So now that we have hard confirmation, not that we needed it. How will Fulgrims model be different to his HH other than not being resin, smaller wings or different placements for them to make it easier to carry to games Id imagine. What will their cultist chaff troops be anon? I'm hoping we get something more creative than 'BDSM themed cultists who LIKE being used a bullet fodder'. It'll be something new I think since DG and WE got whole new units made for them.It will be worse, uglier and cheap looking but somehow more expensive. The HH model will be heavily discriminated against by 40kfags.
>>94086345It's a small ugly dog for a small ugly people, regardless of whether it's mixed with a bulldog or pug.
>>94085375Embrace the Tyranids, a space marine kills a hundred gaunts? Here have a thousandIt feels good to be the bad guy to eat all bad guys
Why is there no chainsword in the intercessor box for the sergeant
>>94083257>Do you play warhammer 40k 10th edition with painted models you own against friends you have?No, I havent really played since the very beginning of 10th, my 40k group kind of fell apart.Hoping to try get back into it though, or find a local store that holds games.
>>94086443Because you're supposed to buy jump pack intercessors
>>94086450But I don’t want to buy them I want to buy heavy intercessors once i finish my regular intercessors
>>94084844I fell for it and it's just thin brown washWhat am I missing here?
>>94086459That you thought a recipe for thin brown wash was going to be life-changing because it had a funny meme name
>>94083621I wish I did, had some neat 2nd ed metal orks as well as just a bunch of random models, like the old ral partha fantasy stuff
>>94086465I mean agrax earthshade was life-changing when I discovered it as a fledgling hobbyist so there's precedent
>>94086402only 2 women out of 10? shame on gw
>>94086502Which ones do you think are women? I don't see any
>>94086508This one definitely
>>94086516Eh, just looks like a thin-faced man to me
>>94083621I still play my first painted mini regularly in my grot squad. My Ork skin recipe (at least when I painted the rest) didn't change much since this guy, so he fits in pretty well at table-length.
>>94086391back in your cage doomsissy
>>94083621He's been stripped a few times, but he's from the first box of guys I ever got. Don't have the heart to paint him again plus one of the times I stripped him he turned sticky and has remained sticky for 10 years
>>94086516Has no facial hair so it's confirmed as a female
>>94086532(Muffled screaming)
>>94086516Ugly bastard looking ass face.
>>94086532>brother, I am pinned here!
>>94086516that one's non-binary
>>94083621only started in 2020 and didn't paint anything after this first printed dude until 2023reprinted and painted the first dude again sorta recently to dip my toes into glazing cloth highlights
>>94086532Why is he so hairy?
>>94086571He got stripped 10 years ago with something dubious and tossed loose into a bag of firstborn guys in my attic for ten years. He's very sticky and collects hairs like crazy
>>94085375A space marine should easily kill 100 fire warriors or 100 guardians, it's like a thousand guardsmen getting eaten by a daemon. Tautrannies are not in the same class. Orks are maybe a little more iffy because of their physical strength. CSM seem to give what they get back but often are using old weapons or are outright ghosts and zombies moved purely by daemon aids and seething.
Yooo this new Titus figure is bussin
what army do trans people play
>>94086599I dunno ask /toy/
>>94083354>Vashtorr will be the 5th in 40kHe's an eternal jobber like his older brother.

>>94086591>or 100 guardiansBut muh dow
>>94086599>>94086601
I'm sorry but that is complete bullshit. A single fire warrior with well placed shots can disable an entire assault squad of marines. He'd pin them down and take them out one by one.
>>94086601eldar primarilyfollowed by SoB
>>94083422>literally just admech garbage but painted black, gray and brass
>>94086619>A single fire warrior with well placed shots can disable an entire assault squad of marines
>>94086622SoB are some cute as and sexy bitchss
>>94086619an entire cadre of elite fire warriors got beaten by basic scouts from a dedicated jobber chapter
>>94086630Probably just a no name school. The real talented schools train fire warriors that can free entire planets and invade imperial battleships alone.
>>94086638nope, they were prestigious blooded escorting an emissary during attempts at communication with the imperium :)

Leave Terminator Armor to me
Are armigers fun to play?
my first painted mini.looks like shit but i didnt expect to start at golden demon award level
>>94083407the dark mekanikum list there would be mostly demon engines
>>94085656I don't care to read.Blow it out your ass.
>>94086601I wouldn’t know personally but I have seen anons mention that the trannies at their LGS most often play SoB, Tyranids, and Tau.
>>94086694based and analphabetism pilled >mfw I'm not sure if I can make joke posts like this without a 3 day ban
>>94086651It's the same insectoid shit, it's exactly the boring "admech with spikes shit" like everyone predicted.
>>94086691>meKaniKumplease don't do that
does the primer you use matter much? i want to paint my tau combat patrol with this colour scheme and i have zandri dust primer
>>94086741Kinda.Black primer makes your paints looks over all more darker.White primer makes your paint look more brighter.
>>94086710>It's the same insectoid shitthere's insectoid and insectoid besides the guidelines work even on admech designs that don't begin as insectoid
>>94086765ah that makes sense thank you. i guess it will do well with what i wanted to go for then.
>>94086721
>>94086741These models are painted the same minus the sword. The only difference is one is primed white and one is primed grey. I'll let you guess which is which
>Deathwatch are coming back per GWI can't lie I've known it's a retarded idea forever but part of me still REALLY wants to abandon my Ultramarines and go for it. How bad could it be?
>>94086690very thick and it looks like you edge highlighted with the tip of the brush instead of its side
>>94086850very bad
>>94086741Get a dark reddish-brown primer first and then do a zenithal zandri dust and they will look good right away.
>>94086683Do people really forget that terminator armour is still nimble?
>>94086690Pretty good for your first model. Thin your paints and keep practicing edge highlighting.Don't ever strip it, keep it to remind yourself in the future how much better you've gotten
>>94086895it's not
>>94086609>He's an eternal jobber like his older brother.Hashut? That's the only chaos god who is kind of a jobber and falls into a similar realm as Vash'torr. But I think age of sigmar is pushing for Hashut to be a different warp god that parasites off of chaos to increase his power, rather than directly chaos.But also>a picture of the faces of the chaos godsAge of sigmar sucks. I know 40k can be shallow but AoS really goes full WoW where the gods just show up right next to you and rub their hands cackling. It's really lame.>poor little be'lakorAnyway the reason Vash'torr will become a god in 11th or 12th edition is because of Peter Turbo. He's a daemon prince but undivided princes are supposed to be rare or non-existent. Lorgar serves all of chaos so he falls into the Be'lakor "empowered by all the gods" zone, but iron warriors are in their own tech-worshiping daemon engine zone. With people talking about Dark Mechanicus and Vash'torr it makes sense to release a Codex: Iron Warriors that puts daemons of Vash'torr, Dark Mechanicus and Iron Warriors into one neat package where Vash'torr has replaced the Machine God for dark mech and Iron Warriors suck their dicks for more daemon engines and shit.Nothing needs to be done for Alpha Legion (since no one knows what side they are really on and alpha/omega are in a grey zone) or Blacked Legion (Abrandon isn't a daemon prince) or Night Lords (Curze is dead, or in the zone where he could somehow have survived and come back as a new guy down the road if they want).>>94083706>chaos without chaosThat is explicitly what IW are in the lore, even in their GW media portrayals they avoid going full retard and rely on enslaving daemons instead of letting them up their bum like word bearers do.
>>94086913>letting them up their bum like word bearers doWord Bearers also enslave daemons. They’re also the only ones whose Possessed are fully in control of themselves.
>>94083702Marine subarmies are a strange case.
>>94086913>Anyway the reason Vash'torr will become a god in 11th or 12th edition is because of Peter Turbo.This is pure cope. GW fucked up with Vashtorr because no one gives a shit about him and it is evident by the fact that GW is now desperately shilling him everywhere and showing him everywhere in an artificial attempt to make him "a thing" in 40k to get people to like him.GW is only making the 4 main legions for both loyalists and traitors and that is it.
>>94086895"Nimble" in the same way a barge is nimble when compared to an oil tanker.Every depiction of terminator armour we've ever seen has been big, slow and clunky.
>>94086936No one gave a shit about Vaashorr because his rules were bad.If he was broken when he came out there would've been an infinite number of Vasshtorr-stans singing his praises and glazing him non stop.
>>94086936>copeWhy are you guys so low IQ you can only communicate in 2018 memes? It doesn't matter how you feel about it, that's what GW is planning on doing. People constantly saying "surely GW can't drastically change the lore AGAIN" have not been paying attention the last 10 years of constant lore changes for the sake of selling models.
>>94086942Redditors unironically think terminator armour needs to be updated to "not look so chunky" because they don't understand the idea of tank armor.
Can someone post a pdf of the CSM codex
>>94086950>No one gave a shit about Vaashorr because his rules were bad.If the only way you can make people give shit about a character is by making him busted in the game and make WAACniggers buy him then you're truely scraping the bottom of the barrel for excuses.Vashtorr plain sucks.His model is ugly and looks like shit.His lore is pure retcon mary sue trash.His only reason to exist is to be shilled by GW now because no one likes him.
>>94086917Gal Vorbak are a special case because they give the daemon a rub and tug before assimilating.
>>94086963sure thing bosshttps://files.catbox.moe/xvsrxc.pdf
>>94086965>His lore is pure retcon mary sue trash.He is literally an evil daemon and hated by his enemies, he cannot be a mary sue by definition as mary sues are good and perfect and even gulliman would love him if he was a mary sue.
>>94086979>He is literally an evil daemonWhich doesn't make it or him any better.You using this as an excuse for his dogshit lore already shows what kind of moron you are.
>>94086970Not just Gal Vorbak, even in modern times they could. It was mentioned even before the Horus Heresy novels with Burias Drak’shal in the Word Bearers omnibus, even.
>>94086971This is actually extremely cool thanks anon do you also have a copy of the current one too
>>94086989>You using this as an excuse for his dogshit lore already shows what kind of moron you are.

>>94086942Big, and slow, but it's not clunky.They move extremely fast for their bulk and the superior awareness of their sensors makes them extremely efficient.If terminator armour was just a lumbering piece of armour why would they have melee specialists?
>>94087032for the same reason a chainswords and powerfists and boxnaughts are a thing, it looks cool
>>94086936I like him, I like the idea of dark mechanicus, I don't mind peter turbo.I just think chaos is kinda lame in generalEven when I like him and stuff surrounding him, he is pretty niche and needs more build up with non core factionsHave him tempt hive worlders, inquisitors or low tier heretechs with wisdom. He needs builds up not to be treated like a baby face or the Abaddon treatment to be a good concept in 40k.Fuck it I hear better things from literal who BL entities than vashtor because they had an aura of mistery to them instead of it becoming your favorite wrestler in one sitting, adding so many named characters to it's introduction felt like seeing a featuring Dante from DMC sticker all over it's mini
>>94086850You'd be stripping paint, chopping pauldrons and power packs, and bulk-buying other chapter's bits ad nauseam for an army that came a hair away from getting squatted this edition,most certainly won't make the jump to the next, and hasn't had a good thing happen to it since Fantasy Flight and GW burned their bridges with each other. Just get like one upgrade box and sprinkle the DW stuff onto a dozen or so of your smurfs.
>>94087032>If terminator armour was just a lumbering piece of armour why would they have melee specialists?The same reason that a robot without knees and legs shorter than his body is somehow supposed to be able to walk without toppling over.Don't think about it.
>>94087050Castraferrum dreads are not robots, they have knees, and it's no issue for them to walk around.
>>94087061Why is that dumbass bending its vents
>>94087050They do have knees, they’re just hidden behind the armor plating, you can actually see them on the models.
Are strike teams with carbines viable next to strike teams with rifles?
>>94087061It's funny how the intro to a 2009 video game is genuinely better looking and animated than the standalone animations made by a subscription service specifically for animations
>>94086345>>94086402It's pretty clearly a French bulldog dickheads
>>94087070The BA dread in WH+ Angels of Death was great:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UOFvrKM6_w
>>94087069Strike teams exist to be cheap bodies and on occasion apply their rule to sole random unit, not to kill anything. So yeah go nuts. Rifles are better simply for the range to do that though
>>94087061>and it's no issue for them to walk around.lmaoa robot with that shape wouldn't even be able to make a single step
>>94087070videogame cinematics can account into their budget and expected incomes from the wider videogamean animation is done on a way tighter budget and timescale, which is why I bet everyone and their mother will try to incorporate videobots as much as possible in the near future even if they will lie shamelessly about it
>>94087061Dawn of War upscaled the boxdreds, lengthened their arms and legs, and added a waist spacer to lift the torso off the hips. The limbs also stretch and squash during animation cycles to make them actually "work" without clipping through themselves.It's much closer to what the redemptor is now than the actual boxdred model.
>>94087126boxdreds were always supposed to be that big. The issue is that marines scale creep since 3rd made them look smaller than they should.
>>94087125peakcock wings I guess would make sense even on the normally slaaneshi fulgrim
>>94087147Retard thinks scale is proportions, point and laugh
>>94087153>Dawn of War upscaled the boxdreds>upscaledok, dipshit
>>94087157>>upscaledAnd, lengthened their arms and legs, and added a waist spacer to lift the torso off the hips.
>>94087157Yeah, not him. Should have included his post too.A 6'3 human and a 5'9 human aren't different scales. If I add 3 vertebrae to your spine and an inch to both arms, I havent changed your scale
>>94087147>The issue is that marines scale creep since 3rd made them look smaller than they should.Why would you post things that are such obviously verifiable untruths? A single Google image search for "2nd edition 40k dreadnought" shows multiple results of marines from that time standing next to dreadnoughts. They've always been stumpy waddle boxes.
>>94087166>andwhich I wasn't talking about, only their perceived size in media vs the minis. Same for the original RT dread despite how small looks today
Demiurg brotherhood responding.
>>94087177boxdreads were actually designed during RT for the RT era minis, and 2e had ongoing scale creep until it became stable for a time in 3rd ed.
>Try my hand at glazing for necrons orb things>Fuck it up>Decide that it's already fucked so might as well experiment>Dry brush some corax white on it>It somehow un-fucks it and it looks pretty decent 90% of the time I don't even know what I'm doing but sometimes I fuck things up so bad it goes full circle into looking good.
>>94087196On the one hand, very good pain scheme and well executed.On the other hand, I hate the Demiurg lore part, so this is bad by extension.
>>94087216>90% of the time I don't even know what I'm doing but sometimes I fuck things up so bad it goes full circle into looking good.sometimes just dicking around and playing with paints gets you some good stuff like that, its how I ended up settling on my dark eldar colours
>>94087210They redid the boxdred in 3E in plastic, long after the base marines had all had their scale set. The rhino, land speeder and land raider all got bigger when they redid them in plastic, the dred didn't.Why are you trying to die on this hill that the dred used to be some towering monster? Even for it's time in RT the dred was the same size as a Tyranid warrior.
>>94086942>does a backflip in your path
>>94087177>anon finds out that 40k model have never been properly scaled compared to one another>more news at 11.
>>94087032>it's not clunkyIt's clunky.
>>94083257Who thought Eightbound were a good idea? They look fucking retarded, did they not want to make decent looking WE berserk/possessed models or what?
I unironically like the SoB battleforce box. I just wish the second Rhino was another two Penitent Engines.
>>94087215>not resident grimdark
What's the lames plot point in the setting?I recall I was pretty underwhelmed by the fact that vottan had some dark age tech and it has not being elaborated at all, zero nada and a bunch of nothingHave you ever been underwhelmed by a plot point to this degree?
>>94087261the 3rd ed plastic boxdread wasn't a redesign unlike those other vehicles you mention, so they only made it a bit bigger but still within the metal original size.And btw the rhino was also redesigned smaller than it should. All those minis look in the art next to RT marines like in >>94087184Until the new primaris stuff, SM minis have been out of scale with their vehicles.
>>94087330The Ynnari being hyped and then becoming a nothingburguer must be the top lamest lore in recent years.GW are cowards
>>94087306I'm considering buying it because of the second rhino, It's so dumb yet effective at being a bargain
Solely MESBG player here looking into 40k and I think I'm going to bite the bullet. Is it worth getting a combat patrol box of the army you like, or shall I still practice the 1 box/unit purchase at a time rule? Any Combat patrol boxes to absolutely avoid?
>>94087330Honestly? I just don’t understand why the Admech work so closely with the imperium, where is the line between Dark Mech and Ad Mech, seems to me as if the Ad Mech just wouldn’t give a fuck about over stepping red lines… why would they care about the inquisition
>>94087341Don’t buy GSC or SM patrols
>>94087336It's funny in retrospect that the last sword is deep in slaneesh butthole, it's such an assholish way of saying "sorry reader your plot point is in another cavity due to lack of sales">>94087344They probably like having a bunch of brutes and manpower at their disposition, especially when it comes to trading labour and materials, I think it's mainly for convenience with the ad mech while the dark mechanicus just said fuck it we are inserting demons into machines just to see what happens
>>94087330All the backpedalling on the primarchs being dead once HH books started selling. 40K didn't need to have a bunch of justice league rejects with daddy issues crammed into it.A close second is anytime GW acknowledges the 2 "forgotten legions" with a wink to the camera.
>>94087360Have they acknowledge them that much?I recall they did with a blurb of lore with a cell below terra and Malcador discussion about it, have they done it more recently?
>>94087330Cawl Cawl is a mary-sue that can do basically anything without major repercussions. Every time I read about the shit he's done it makes me physically tired.>why the fuck do you have a technomancer chained in your office?>because I'm trying to teach it to SERVE ME and HOW TO PLAY CHESS>look, see how I've programmed these scarabs ( necron matter-energy conversion devices) to move the chess pieces around?
>>94087348Are we talking the specific SM patrol for the Ultramines or any of the marine boxes? I'm not getting the blue one because I already managed to buy the first issue of Combat patrol as it was only £3 in WHSmith and comes with a leader. Gotta say neither of the armies interest me. I'm finished with swarm armies after painting Moria and marines are kinda gay
>>94087286the idea that they were possessed was added onto the sculpt afterwardsthe thought process with the world eaters was the following>want to update berzerkers like we did with plague marines with way more mutations and weapons variety >but people also want conventional berserkers without the gribbles we now strap onto any chaos model>so we will do two units: normal berserkers and bigger exalted berserkers>the sculptors put into the exalted berserkers kit enough bits to make them either almost normal but bigger or fully mutated>the rules writers then decided to make the two aesthetic builds two separate units to pretend the world eaters aren't coming out with an abysmally small roster (especially considering the lack of the demons and of some normal csm units, all to bump the sales of those new kits they were releasing as much as possible)>closest thing they have that's similarly mutated is possessed>"lets say they're also possessed"all they had to do was use a different name or specify how the end result is different
>>94087375>Cawl is a mary-sue that can do basically anything without major repercussions.Wrong
>>94087375but that greentext sounds fun to me, not mary sueishalthough I agree cawl is a mary sue
>>94087384no repercussions happened by the end of the book
>>94087381nta, but I agree, that makes sense. The GW writers fucked up.Their lame paint scheme also didnt' help them, their exposed flesh should be daemonic red or black to reinforce their possesion.
>>94087384That is literally the fucking book in which that happens. Page 80 onwards. Cawl fans can suck my ass
>>94087375I once had a friend compare it to a muppet or fuck huge animatronic made to enhance a scene and for kids to not question what's happening on screen, now I can't help but hear a bit of Kermit when I read his scenesI can't exactly call him lame since he is an entertaining mess, but if you don't like cyborg muppets I can agree that he is kinda lame
>>94087360>All the backpedalling on the primarchs being dead once HH books started selling.I hate thisBut I hate the HH books on principal, the details of the Heresy should never have been fleshed out and it should have remained the province of fragmented and contradictory historical records, myths, and a handful of very biased personal accounts
>>94087360>All the backpedalling on the primarchs being dead once HH books started sellingNo dead primarch has returned. The traitors were always there in 40k's background, and Guilliman and the Lion were explicitly alive, just sleeping
Need plastic Lucius
>>94087416Sucks to be you. The HH is amazing unless you're a seethign xenofag.> In general, Trazyn had not been much interested in humans. He collected them, of course, he collected everything. But he considered them on the same level as orks, or various kinds of carnivorous algae. Their spread across the cosmos had destroyed so many more interesting civilisations, and since the rise of the Emperor their culture had an utter sameness that bored him. If Trazyn cared about the mere ability to propagate and spread, he’d spend his eternity collecting bacteria. Just because a thing was successful and ubiquitous did not make it fascinating – it just made it common.>But the Heresy changed all that. Before it was all colonisation and settlement. This, this was history, this was drama. Betrayal. Struggle. Brother fighting brother across the gulf of the stars. Empires rising and falling, heroes and rebels.>He’d collected so much that he’d begun to worry he’d gone overboard. Especially since it hadn’t stopped. Centuries out from the Siege of Terra, and he’d continued snatching up human artefacts wherever he could. Now he not only had specimens, and spare specimens, but spares of spares.
>>94087441>The HH is amazingIts overwhelmingly drivel>unless you're a seethign xenofagYou'd never say that to any person out loud, meaning you're nogames. Or you're a wimp.
>>94087463>You'd never say that to any person out loudHow sanitised is your gaming group? You don't have one.
>>94087479>How sanitised is your gaming group?And now you're doing the "bro its just banter bro" backpedal
>>94087463My group of millenial friends isn't a bunch of weak and fragile idiots using x-cards everytime they get upset. We talk shit to each other all the time.I can't wait for the stupid over sensitive shit from all sides of the spectrum to become widely seen as cringe again.
>>94087504>>You wouldn't actually use a slur!>I would.>>B-b-b-backpedal!Where's the backpedal supposed to be?
>>94087479Sanitized implies a group that doesn't make edgy or racial jokes or whatever. "Seething Xenofag" is just.. cringe. Nobody's getting offended, it just sounds like you're 12
>>94087427In the original lore for the primarchs GW stated that apart from the ones ascended to darmonhood they had all died in battle or of old age thousands of years before the setting of the game.Then they slowly started changing "dead" to "last seen running into the webway", "was abducted by weird robed psychic midgets", or "MIA after boarding an enemy ship". They're absolutely backpedalling.
>>94087552>"Seething Xenofag" is just.. cringe. Nobody's getting offendedI think the guy implying that we should be too scared to say it would be.
>>94087555I think the only one they were consistent is Khan, he fucked off since forever ago and that's it
>>94086853>>94086897>very thickok, ill keep that in mind. thanks.>use the sidesi will for the next mini.thanks again.
>>94087330Ynnari were really fucking terrible and seemingly permanently fucked over every Eldar faction/army. Damage their story did to all Eldar cannot be overstated. Mary Sue GW tried to hype up and push for them failed miserably which is funny at least, since fanbase collectively made up a completely different personality for her and relegated her to a meme whore status known only for starring in porn. Whoever pushed her for stronk wymyn points must be seething.But that's the point, Ynnari were so bad I can't even call them lame, I have some strong, negative feelings towards them at least. Now Arks of Omen and Lion's return were lame. Supposedly some bigger plot point and it's a complete nothingburger so far. That's lame and disappointing.
>>94087330Primarchs returning. The term is overused but I would call it Marvelslop. The Imperium can have exceptional leaders sure, but unkillable superheroes are extremely lame and gay.
>>94087441>The HH is amazinglol lmao
>>94087555>the original loreshut the fuck up. Guilliman and the Lion were in stasis and sleeping since fucking 2nd edition. Others like Russ have NEVER been dead, just dissapeared.Dorn is the ONLY primarch whose explicit death was soft retconned long ago into just ambiguosly dissapearing leaving a hand behind.
Just posted before about starting 40k army and I've bought a Chaos Knight. Going to ask a retarded question, I can magnetize all its weapons, right? Looks like it's got a lot of options and I don't know shit about 40k so I'd like to try them all or as many as I can out
>>94087617yeah, magnetizing is recommended for big models with lots of loadouts like that
>>94087591>>94086965Yeah, see, Yvraine is a textbook Mary Sue in all the ways Vashtorr is not.Cawl falls somewhere in the middle.
>>94087524>>94087516I dont fucking care about slurs you double nigger, I am saying that your tone was obviously not banter and you wouldn't with a straight face try to antagonize someone in real life based on if they selected plastic space elfs or plastic army space men. Because that is giga pathetic.
>>94086897>Don't ever strip itseconding thisin due time you'll look at this model fondly and any one of his actions in game will forever catch your attention adding to his story, he will have as much value in your collection as your latest and best creationsonly thing I'd tell you to change or fix is the rim of the base so it's more uniformly and cleanly black, or whatever rim colour you're going to use for your army
Been out of the game since 8th edition, but lurking around here since then. I've seen the knights box for christmas. How easy would it be to make them chaos knights and how viable is it for a plug and play box? Anyone knows how many points aproximately?
>>94087635Vashtorr is closer to a botched heel, they tried too hard to make it cool
>>94087654"seething xenofags" are a distinct group of players different from regular eldar or xeno whatever players.The fact that it has triggered you so much outs you as one of them.
>>94087683Why the fuck would "xenofags" seethe about HH? It makes zero fucking sense unless you mean can't play HH ruleset (and you kind of can with 7th edition codices)
>>94087683>"seething xenofags" are a distinct group of players different from regular eldar or xeno whatever players.it's the same strawman
>>94087670Its feasible but you'd be running the bad wardog variants, and your army would look boring as all hell. Wouldn't be worth it
>>94087670I think just about everything you can do with the models in terms of loadout has a parallel on the Chaos Knight side of things, so proxying them shouldn't be a big issue. But then you might as well just grab regular Chaos Knights.
what’s the most chud faction
>>94087697lurk more and you'll notice a strain of shitposters whining about the HH and marines in general which are almost always eldarfags butthurt about not being the center of attention of the setting.I'm making this up.
>>94087710CK don't use autocannons at all
>>94087719>I'm making this up.based
>>94087707So not worth it as a box at all even for regular knights? That's a bummer, I thought it'd be a nice value box assuming they keep the $210 price
>>94087718space marines
How do LGS make money if they sell things at such a discount
>>94083257>Do you play warhammer 40k 10th edition with painted models you own against friends you have?I do not! I'm gonna though. Gonna buy 200 euros worth of Tau so we can drink + paint, then play + drink together. If it's fun, I'll try to make a WHFB army to fight his 5th edition Dwarves.
>>94087730You asked specifically about chaos knights. Your army would be boring because you'd have "chaos" knights that lack all the cool chaos details
>>94087738get item from GW at 30% discountSell it to people at 15% discountstill make money
>>94087738Anon.. do you think they buy product at MSRP?
>>94087741Yeah yeah, sorry, I was thinking how'd the box do for regular knights since the chaos ones don't seem feasable. My bad if I wasn't clear, english isn't my first language
>>94087719There can't possibly be enough Eldarfags for it to always be Eldarfags. Even Xenosfags are barely made up of Eldarfags anymore.
Redpill me on dry brushing
>>94087759For regular knights its fine, they like running a mix
>>94083257>TQ I have no friends.
>>94087435I predict we will get plastic Lucius and Eidolon but not Doomrider and that will cause much seething online (mostly from people who don't play EC)
>>94087799Nice tubes NEEEEERRRD!
Can he do it?
>>94087813yeah, he has to activate the power fist and slam it against the necrons leg
>>94087813Depends if his name has been stated before this point in an on-screen dialogue or if he has unresolved plot threads still.
>>94087718genestealer cults
>>94087813where's the black lion
>>94087813>he's behind me, isn't he?
>>94087926The Black Lion died on the way back to his home world.
>>94087813How effective is a lasgun going to be against metal, nevermind sci fi living metal?
>GREY knights>a shitton of tutorials paint them fucking blue>even the fucking "grey knights steel" paint is blue
>>94087991not much, but still potentially effective if you hit the right spots like joints or "vital" systems like coolants tubes and processing parts
>>94088000they're silver
>>94088000>GREY knights>don't put any paint on>apparently this isn't finished???
>>94088013silver isn't blue eitherniggas paint them like fucking anodized aluminium knights
>>94088015Usually I think the people that moan about codexes being invalidated day of release are being hyperbolic because its usually just a couple points here and there. This however is very funny.Buying physical media is for suckers
>>94087808Isn't doomrider dead?
>>94088015Which article?
>>94088032doomrider achieved demonhood, death is a temporary inconvenience at worst
>>94088032his head was by the white scars to their fortress monastery but its still alive and he's a daemon prince anyway
>>94088022it looks more elegant and elite instead of painting them eniterly in iron warrior
>>94087286>>94087381>>94087398I can see a way to fix this, the current Eightbound models should become a new unit named 'berserker gladitors' or something who try and be closer to Angron by fighting like the gladitors Angron and his real family were. The nails didn't work so some of the legions fractured culture has turned towards trying to ape the culture Nuceria. This also explains their partial nudity and being bigger badder WE berserkers Eightbound/ Exalted Eightboud should get new models that make them look like mini bloodthirsters crossed with a normal berserker crossed with possessed.

>>94088073>hiding something that important in a warhammer animation postClassic GW
Do I go with tzeentch or slaanesh demons
>>94088081On the contrary They also hinted at it in Facebook comments without making it it's own post.Presumably It's dropping the mixed save squads shit, and it'll just be the three squads of phobos, tacticus and gravis teams. I still wouldn't trust this enough to actually buy into an army though, it's not like it's a commitment to not just drop them at the end of 10th.
>>94088109tzeentch is cooler
>>94088113I don’t play demons, but I thought it was a really bad idea to only do one set of demons? Like, as in your army would be unbalanced
>>94088110Oh definitely not enough to buy into it, I’ve got an agents force though I’m painting up and improves my day a little
why is little timmy a boogeyman for this general
>>94088110no is buying into DW after what they did, this is throwing a bone to the knuckleheads that already own a DW army
>>94088054No need to overcomplicate it, anon. "Eightbound" should be a reference to those marines being even more into the Eighfold Path and becoming daemonic. Paint their flesh in red/black like bloodletters and let's forget about the retarded "possesed by 8 daemons" idea
>>94088054a way simpler solution is accepting that it's not a type of possession anywhere near close to the one normal possessed marines are under, in that case they've got a demon (most likely something above a normal lesser demon, although probably not to the rank of a herald) fully possessing their physical body, while in the eightbounds they've got 8 bloodletters chained inside their minds, with the exalted ones having wrestled enough control to channel a measure of their power into their bodies
>>94088109I used to run tzeentch daemons, they were pretty neat (in 8th at least)
>>94088148what do you run nowadays?
>>94088159I havent played at all in a couple of years but I'm going to try get my orks or renegade CSMs back into it soon I hope
>>94088109in both cases the plastic models for the lesser demons are ass, personally I'd go tzeentch but replace most if not all horror models with recasts of 6th edition models (or prints of their scans), stuff from creature casters, some of mantic nightstalkers, and prints of tzeentch proxies from one page rules and lost kingdom miniaturesif you have to go slaanesh there's an unverified voice that slaaneshi demons might get updates with the EC wave (or perhaps with the slaaneshi tome for aos), otherwise for them I'd convert fantasy witch elves, blissbarb archers and exalted seekers to replace at least half of the demonettes and all of the cavalry models
>>94088109>>94088188Also bear in mind whatever you use you cannot top Juan Diaz's models from back in the day
>go to Warhammer store>grab a box of stern guard vets >guy at counter tells me thursdays are amateur painting nights>I could stop by and he would show me some things What did I do that made him know I'm new
>>94088203YJK
>>94088203you were probably a bit nervous and he noticed that
>>94088109Tzeentch is cooler in concept, but the models are all shit.With Slaanesh the daemonettes aren't good, but they're better than the misshapen lumps of plastic GW passes off as horrors or flamers. Just avoid any of the chariots, those things are fucking awful.
>>94088203buying from warhammer store instead of third partywarhammer stores are effectively customer service stations for people to get help on what to build, how to build, and how to do colours
>>94088148that's a nice lord of change anon
>>94088188I never said I was gonna use the modern gw models tho, I hate them.
>>94088203You were buying models direct from a Warhammer store.Only newbies, and parents shopping for their kids do that.
>>94088210>>94088224what the fuck is the point of those stores existing then
>>94088212thanks bosswish I'd painted the staff a different colour to break it up a bit
>>94088188>creature castersHalf of it is goodOther half is overdesigned garbage for coomersTruly a perplexing design studio
>>94088198I think creature casters and raging heroes 'nettes are more than enough to replace or replace those, but in both cases you're looking at something very pricey and very fiddly, not ideal for your basic troops, perhaps a few unit champions and heralds
>>94088226...they sell models to new players and parents?
>>94088226for newbies, and parents shopping for their kids
>>94088210>>94088224/40kg/ told me I should buy from the stores. Plus I want to make friends that play
>>94088226For you to go in once, get stalked the entire time then never go to again
>>94088228>Other half is overdesigned garbage for coomersOh no the slaanesh proxies are hot the horror
>>94088226people needing help on how to get startedpeople wanting to browse models instead of just looking onlinestreet presence to get footfallPeople shopping for relativesIt's not really a bad idea to buy your first model and stuff there, see if you like it, then when it comes to building an expensive model go third party.You have to understand, even if you buy from a different LGS, GW is making money.
I was at the Golden Demon expo yesterday at spiel essen and met squidmar, he has a very flamboyant way of behaving himself, I am pretty sure he is gay
>>94088229Creature caster has basic daemonette squads now as well anon
>>94088240Yes, you're by your own admission, a newbie? And you want to make friends who play?You went to a store, someone tried to be helpful and invited you to a social event. Isn't that exactly what you wanted to happen?
>>94088226my old GW use to be in a mall, so what would often happen is some parent walks in with a kid(s), say okay have fun I'll be back in an hour and leave them there while they shopped. the red shirts were furious
>>94088228Yeah, but these dudes specifically are very fitting to spice up a group of horrors as long as you can keep the overall cost of the unit down with cheaper plastic or printed stuff for the bulk of the unit, in my opinion I'd not recommend their huge centerpieces, not as gaming models
>>94088198Was he the guy who made the tits out pleasureseeker?
>>94088251I saw a 10 year old outpaint a grown up at a warhammer store alreadysome people just dont have talent
>>94088240No, you should only buy from stores you physically play at. That’s because you’re basically subsidizing a free play space
>>94088236>>94088232Well that is crazy that they can turn a profit with just those. Especially nowadays with vast majority of people buying online anyways.
>>94088240Not from GW stores dummy, LGS.
>>94088275The invisible mommy Illuminati are generously bankrolling and funding the brick and mortar stores
>>94088283No sane publicly owned company will maintain a store that is not turning a profit. So they must be making enough to at least pay for themselves
>>94088229Guy at my local club has the full slaanesh creature caster range. They look great on the table Shame their prices have gone up so much, they used to be quite a bit cheaper than gw but now they're about the same or more
>>94088290They're loss leaders to provide spaces to play.
Our time is coming bros
>>94088264My local had to go to charging to reserve tables because so few people actually bought anything from the store despite dozens of people playing there. It sucks, but they offer a membership with discounts on product purchases in store and honestly I think that's a good way for them to go. Basically the tables are free if you were buying from the store anyways.
>>94088297>>94088290GW stores largely don't offer play space anymore, just intro games.Which is all they're for; advertising and marketing spaces that sell your first minis. I'm sure they have regular customers (suckers) and don't operate on massive losses, but they're 1-man crews in small spots for a reason.
Do you use your Kolinsky saber brushes for metallics?I have a local craft store that sells super cheap size 1 Kolinsky brushes and I am thinking about just replacing all my brushes with Kolinsky
>>94088299Feels good to be an EChad (I only own 2 squads of Noise Marines I use in my Black Legion)
>>94088304I once bought 4 paints from a GW store because I quickly needed them for a project and they were in driving distance and had the paints I needed.The paints were OLD. They were standing in that store, unmoved, for years.I had to use a toothpick to loosen up the pigments in the bottom, two agitators couldn't do it.
>>94088275You vastly underestimate the margins GW makes on shit like glue, paint, and modelling tools.The markups they put on those and other accessories is insane. And when they're displayed next to the models they look cheap in comparison, so no one bothers to go online and price check before chucking them in the cart along with a starter set.
>>94088306god no, i use the starter brush that came in a dg+paint set
>>94087813>LHD wasting his one S14 D6 shot on a 3T 1W infantryman instead of killing a tank
>>94088306I get 10 packs of brushes from Walmart for $7
>>94088299There was no question they were coming this editionJust wondering if we'll see another army at some point or if we'll be waiting for 12th to see something like Lost and the Damned made official
>>94088328thats why your models look like poop
>>94088127I'm hoping demons get all put into their respective cult codex.
>>94088315their tools are chinesium sold at a premium price, it's not difficult to imagine the markup being 90% or more
>>94088334We're getting dark admech next
>>94088338I don't. There's a danger that you can own (say) an entire power armoured Death Guard army but the best way to play them in a combined codex is 3 GUO and 60 plaguebearers
>>94088308Shiori is more of a Word Bearer imoOr maybe Death Guard based on how much mold she's eaten
>>94088306I use my sables for all detail work regardless of paint type and they still have solid tips after a year and a half of use. Just maintain them properly
>>94088299What are they playing, /tg/?
Blood Angelbros, with the new codex is there a reason to run Jump Intercessors or Assault Intercessors over their Death Company variants?
>>94088343They really should wait until Traitor Guard are scratched off, if just because Chaos Guard are far more prevalentAnd there's already half a TG army in kits out at this point
>>94088344Not my problem I don't have waacfags in my group
>>94088350Yeah that's what I am thinking too, I have one I have been using for a year for everything but metallics and it's still pristine, I take good care of it tho, never oversoak, never use it to mix paint, always wash, dry and treat with soap after sessions etc.Meanwhile, I have some synthetics that hook after 2 sessions and are super springy etc
>>94088362Traiter guard regiments will just be units for a specific Chaos army at this point, like Imperial Agents. We will probably get Iron Warriors with Demon Perturabo, considering all the Perturabo content being pushed by the influencers.
>>94088344This is the perennial problem with chaos players.If you make the armies "pure", people bitch and moan that they can't crossover their models.If you make the codexes easily soupable, or a more broad theme everyone complains that their "insert favourite unit here" never gets used because it's out competed by "insert points efficient option here".
>>94088364Yeah. You can always start using the ones that lose their tips for rougher jobs and they'll still do better than synthetics
>>94088349I was going to use Nerissa but couldn't find an approriate reaction image of her so said fuck it and Shiori it was
>>94088377>I was going to use NerissaFair.
>>94088373>you make the codexes easily soupable, or a more broad theme everyone complains that their "insert favourite unit here" never gets used because it's out competed by "insert points efficient option here".These people should just shut the fuck up unironically.Not everything will be equally strong or powerful in a game. Every game, no matter how hard the creators try, will always have a meta to them.
>>94088369IW is definitely next based on how hard they're pushing Vashtorr and Dark Mech now
>>94088373Use your favorites and optimize within your own parameters. A lot of people don't seem to get that here. So you see tons of exchanges like:>Q: "What's the best way to utilize unit A?">A: "Don't use unit A. Use unit B instead."
>>94088362traitor guards are only good as throwaway chaff for the chaos marine codex and at best a subfaction rule that lets you do the same thing genecults dodarkmek deserve a larger range way more than them
Freshly baked bread over here>>94088393>>94088393>>94088393
>>94088388>>94088390uhhh my list focused around my favourite units couldn't beat the sweaty hyper optimized tournament list my opponent used so therefore I am FORCED to never take my favourite units because they are LITERALLY unplayableFix this GW
>>94088388>>94088399Yeah but the problem is when the meta does not reflect the narrative/theme of your army. GW needs to try and balance things so that a combined (say) DG+NG army isn't 99% daemons and 1 cultist squad.You can see this with Guard where a meta unit is bullgryns but many guard players don't like abhumans and don't want to run bullgryns
>>94088423>but many guard players don't like abhumansWell they are plain wrong and retarded and deserve to get punched in the arm while only playing abhumans.
>>94088148top tier stuff right here
