Which armies would they have?
>>94355784biboo would probably start world eaters
>>94355784>vtuber
Previous thread because OP is a faggot.>>94351820
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
Grey knights or dark eldar will be refreshed.
A quick reminder that:>the vtuber girls dont like you>the vtuber girls dont like your hobby>they are in this purely for your money and attention (more money)>you are their new lowest common denominator
For me it's Matara Kan and Hive Fleet Momo
>>94355862Except we already know the big releases for 2025 are Astra Militarum, Aeldari, Emperor's Children, and Leagues of Votann.
>Summer rolls around>This is the time my brain always chooses to get interested in 40k again>The time of year where my paint is constantly drying on the tip of my brush after 2 strokes.
>>94355862Grey Knights arent getting refreshed until after the Firstborne re-release (post Intercessor(Tactical) Kill Team upgrade sprue).
dork eldar are fun to kitbash
>>94355865>implying I watch vtubersI like cute stuff but I'm not gonna watch someone else play video games lol
Grey Knights will be squatted and rolled into Agents of the Imperium like the Deathwatch.
>>94355879>Intercessor (Tactical)As much as you and I both wish for that to be true we both know it is never going to happen because multiple marine boxes sells better than one mulitkit box.
>>94355892>Less marinesgreat
>>94355885They sure are.
>>94355892Matt Ward has too much dirt on Robin Cruddence (his anthro tank porn addiction) for that to happen
>>94355892Grey knights more like ghey knights
>>94355892Yeah, but not until next edition probably. They already confirmed they were returning with their own codex in 2925
>>94355902damn that's quite a while
What's with all the Grey Knight hate? I thought that had cooled off since the Custodes took the shine off them.
>>94355902Damn we're going to be stuck with 10e for 900 more years?Fucking kill me now
>>94355893who the fuck is buying 40k tacticals in 2024?
>>94355915No one. He's talking about Primaris getting a Tactical squad style kit of their own where they can carry mixed weapon loadouts within an Intercessor squad.
>>94355865Most vtubers are also literal cam whores, they're not some pure waifu that wants to fuck you. Hololive in particular almost exclusively hires actual cam whores, 90% of the jps do porn.
>>94355918If you're giving intercessors different wargear they are no longer Intercessors
>>94355865That Gook who has literally close to 6k hours in Darktide would beg to differ considering she usually only gets like a dozen viewers (because Korea) and streams the game for like 12 hours at a time every day.
>>94355915>>94355924It would be nice if they made intercessor good again. give them an option to take pyroclast, hellblasters, las talons or multi melta for every 5 models and some extra cool rule .
>>94355930based
>>94355931Tell that to Pathfinders, you fool.
>>94355939What?
>>94355924that's my point, the old tacticals are pretty much deprecated and must be selling few boxes. Replacing them and the current intercessors with "Primaris tactical intercessors" seems like the obvious move by GW.It's stupid that even IG troops have more options in their basic troop kit.
>>94355888>cutehideous and cringey.
Making intercessors "good" by making them more like tacticals - a unit that has been shit 90%+ of the time is a very amusing idea
>>94355930I fail to see this as a problem. I don't watch them for their RL stuff or what they do on their off time. I want to watch them build Gundams, while listening to some Ghilbi movie or Yakuza OST. I mean no one watches movies, news or reads books, for the high level of morality of the writers/actors/newspeeps.
>>94355930>90% of the jps do porn.holy based I love yagoo
Game against Raven Guard this week. He's got 2 big units of jumppack guys, one with Shrike in it, a crusader with a captain and 10 dudes in it, the floaty brick tank, scouts, a fatnaught, and a big squad of terminators.
>>94355945It's touching you think GW will produce any new boxes with good wargear options
>>94355930Noel my beloved
>>94355966He got first turn. Scouts infiltrate onto northwest objective, steel legion scouts pretty much everywhere to deny deepstrike.
>>94355930>source: my ass
>>94355984we're not spoonfeeding you their cam2cam links lmao
>>94355982those tanks can't turn their turrets
I'm wanting to do 2 big knights, because apparently 3 is really swingy, I've settled on the castigator as one of them, what pairs well with him?
>>94355966It's always a pleasure to see your army steel legion anon
>>94355931So if you give tactical marines two special weapons and swap the bolters with bolt pistols and chainswords, they're no longer tacticals?
You people actually want MORE weapon types within every single basic squad? I just want to be able to run all my troops with baseline guns again without having to pay for them like they are fully kitted out.I hate having to go through 5 different weapon profiles every time one of my units shoots.
>>94355982Good luck anon
>>94355982raven guard shooting took out a couple of sentinels, then he makes first turn charge into infantry chimeras
>>94355969they've already done it for CSM and other factions. Intercessors are the weird exception when even phobos marines got upgrades for KT.
>>94355996If you're giving them enough options for it to matter and more importantly be worthy of a new box, yes.
>>94355989Okay you got me.
>>94356002It's called an "option". They're optional. As in "not mandatory".
What's the little bits hanging off the pauldron meant to be? This is from the first born death company. It's hard to tell.
>don't touch wet palette for a couple months>open it>the paper has turned dark yellow>sponge is still wet>doesn't smellHuh
>>94356015Lol good one, shame about the free wargear
>>94356015Right, but I have no option to run the unit more cheaply. The price is baked in. I can take objectively worse weapons for no benefit. That's not a choice.
>>94356008So BA tacticals weren't tacticals, because they got their own box with options not available in the regular tactical box?
>>94356004the melee breaks one chimera open, infantry spill out onto objective. Other chimera weathers the damage with 6 wounds left.>>94356003>>94355995it's good to be back in this shithole, thanks
>>94355984>source: my assPost pics
>>94356016Looks like curling parchment from that image
>tanks with 0 decalsWhat are you doing?
>>94356027>For it to matterLast (you) btw
>>94355966You don't load up with HKs?
>>94356037
>>94356025A bad option is still an option.That's also stuff like IG squads having free weapon options for a long time, but many people kept them stock with lasguns, because of all the Orders that boosted them specifically. Bring back the old 2e Rapid Fire and HH's Fury of the Legion rules that boost bolters. Now you have a reason to keep the bolter over swapping to a different weapon.
>>94356033Turn 1 steel legion counterattack. Plasma cannons melt the central infantry squad down to captain and 1 redshirt. Vanquishers take out the hover brick in 1 volley. Kasrkin jump out and vaporize the scouts, claim northwest objective, and use their chimera to box themselves into the ruin to deny charge. Steel legion is now on all 3 no mans land points.
If 40K is mainstream why aren’t they in Fortnite yet
Second wave coming soon, right?
>>94356041>it only matters when I say it mattersOk, retard.
>>94356061hopefully not.
>>94356004Those land raider sponsons are not total dogshit, but they're pretty gross.
I have an unbuilt pewter daemon prince. Will he be big enough if I juice up the height a bit on the correctly sized base?
>>94356059They're in CoD, good enough?
>>94356058Turn 2, he drops shrike in with his assault guys into the center to try to recontest the infantry. Land Raider abandons the center to run off to the lost northwest objective and melts a kasrkin unit.
>>94355784>Mori Calliope EditionI wish she hadn't. She's my oshi and I love 40k but it's too cringe for her.
>>94356080those babby pauldrons
>>94356079>juice up the height a bitThat's modelling for advantage
>>94356086>anything too cringe for moriShe's cringe made physically manifest, anon.
>>94356033Its crazy to me that adults paint like that.
>>94356084Bottom of 2, I move the russes to bring plasma cannons onto shrike and company. This is where he tells me I can't shoot shrike's unit outside of 12", and also gets grumpy when I ask to change my movement. I end up having to shoot everything at the crusader, instead, which he puts armor of contempt on for -2 AP.I take pretty much all the russ volume and the kasrkin to finish off the crusader through that damage filter.
I will never get deep enough into the hikki-hole to understand v-tubers and I've been watching anime and been neeting for decades.
>>94356086>too cringe>for MoriShe's not your oshi if you don't think she's pure cringe.
Are scriptoriums the norm in the Imperium? Okay the AdMech may have their own digital information system but how much do scriptoriums matter to the operation of the Imperium?
>>94356102scions come down behind his home objective and vaporize his phobos LT.
i know painting on the sprue is generally retarded but is it worth priming some awkward tiny parts that only need to have a tiny bit of touch up to the primer afterwards? theres some pieces im undecided if i want them on the models yet but they seem like a bitch to hold to prime individually
>>94356102>This is where he tells me I can't shoot shrike's unit outside of 12", and also gets grumpy when I ask to change my movement.He should have told you about this stuff beforehand, kind of a dick move
>>94355966Love your guard. Have a bloodthirster about to rip up a Rogal Dorn
>>94356121>painting sub-assemblydon't do this either, the number of models that get a pass on this is incredibly small
>>94356115Turn 3, raven guard recalls his 10-man assault unit and shrike's 10-man unit to reclaim the home objective he lost. They wipe out the scions, but steel legion has now been sitting on all 3 no-mans-land points for 2 turns.Steel legion turn 3, fatanaught eats 2 vanquisher shells and goes down, chimeras, kasrkin and plasma cannons all but wipe out the terminators.
Should I paint some Word Bearers or Sisters today?
>>94356134kitbash some word sisters
>>94356139No.
>>94356134Pick the army that has less points painted for it
>>94356143Word Bearers it is.
>>94356133Last 2 turns go quickly. Terminators get wiped out, he bags 3 heavily-damaged vehicles for some bring it down points. Plasma cannons melt his non-shrike assault unit. He's down to just shrike's unit and game ends 70 - 54 for steel legion.
>>94356140Boring.
>>94356124I will find you and sprinkle small gravel on those bases
>>94356153Sometimes I just don't understand why people do this (play non ultramarines marines) to themselfs. Espcialy in to something like IG, SoB or Necron. Do they like want to lose games without being able to do anything about it? There are no armies , right now, in the game that win all games. And I get that someone could not want to play horde, even if GW really likes to make armies with more models better, but playing armies that will just lose over and over again? That is like some odd form of masochism.
why do magnus and angron show up for every WE/1kS fightAre they jobless?
>>94356130I think for some walker models like Dreads where the 2 arms, 2 legs and main body are all pretty seperate are fine for sub-assemblies
>>94356171I dunno ask /hhg/
>>94356130im just trying to get the most out of the box, if i havent decided how i want them to look perma i can paint multiple and then decide and glue it after, or even pin them so they became swappable no? my original question is for like heads, which are only connected to the sprue in 1 point which is on the bottom you wont see, so instead of cutting them all off and being awkward wouldnt it be ok to just paint those on sprue or atleast cut the gate so you have some small sprue to hold
>>94356168Some people just enjoy the social aspect of the game, throwing dice is a plus
>>94356168What in the hell are you saying bud
>>94356094Arent the new plastic daemons much taller? If anything I'm trying not to field a tiny manlet that's too small to be fair.
>>94356079Why are the links to the previous threads all missing?
>>94356124thanks, I like the osl on the orange eyes>>94356050Everything has one, just not all modelled. Every edition it feels like chimera turrets change.
Comedy.
>>94356256Is this real
>>94356190yeah, but you don't have to buy and paint a w40k army to spend quality time with your buddies eating some solo and drinking vodka. In fact any money spent on w40k takes away money from fun time with friends. >>94356194That spending 400$ on an army that will lose game after game under the mission setting we have, is hard for me to explain to myself. It would be like going to a MMA or hooligan club as a 165 dude, to get beaten over and over again. While you still have to pay membership, tribute, presents for core members birthdays/children birthday/national fests etc.
>>94356265Yes.
Any replacement for Battlescribe, the last point changes aren't updating
Why did nobody tell me gretchins were so fun to assemble? Now I just need to figure out what to do with my extra heads.
How many of you have given up on the game due to extreme expense?
>>94356285I already have an army? Why would I need to give up?
>>94356276New recruit is actually viable now, I've moved on to that
>>94356285I just hoard stls like a dragon while I wait for my friend to start being able to 3d print again. I still paint, but I've mostly missed out on 10th edition.
>>94356290it looks ugly and is in only browser though?
>>94356285The extreme expense of..?
>>94356295That's why I didn't use it before but the app exists and works fine now
>>94355876>LoVrefresh every unit in the army with actual squats/dwarfs or axe them from the game.
>>94356283Mount them on bloodbowl halflings
>>94355879Until after the what?
>>94356294I don’t think anyone is missing out on skipping tenth edition.
>>94355933who
>>94355885Yeah they are. Future armies should've used their sprue design to maximize modularity across the range. I always had fun seeing what I could slap across kits with zero extra effort.
>>94356354they should also be able to number the parts correctly on the sprue so i dont need to look all over the place for a part
>>94356285They made my points lower so I need to paint more super detailed infantry and I don't want to.
>>94356354If you mean having the head-body-legs-arms as seperate interchangeable parts across all infantry then every faction used to be designed that way. Dark Eldar just still have all the old modular kits because they haven't gotten an update since 5th edition.
>>94356378This is why I have to wonder why people seem to want the DE line updated so badly. Those kits still look good and any update would kill their extra bits for spiral cut monopose sculpts and skyrocket the price of all the units, which are only cheap because they are old.
>>94356339I played one game near the launch and it wasn't too bad, though I'm convinced we did battleshock wrong otherwise it's the most pointless mechanic in the game.
does the vallejo airbrush surface primer actually work for brushing paint onto it or are you supposed to airbrush onto it
>>94355784Anyone have a 4th or 5th edition army builder?
>>94356267>posts made by a WAACfagYou can have fun without winning, anon.
You don't even need primer desu.There's a reason why GW just sells paint in a can, it works absolutely fine.
>>94356400Doesn't battle scribe have old editions and points in the rollback options? I don't know how far back it goes though.
>>94356406You don't have to post
List building is so fucking boring now.
>>94356407They've only got 2nd, 7-9th in their data files.
>>94356416Depends on your faction. But for most of them, yes.
>>94356416Idk what you mean taking 3x identical units of good men is riveting stuff
>About to play a game with a mate with my iron warriors and knight archeron>He apparently burnt himself out trying to paint up his death guard last night>I ask him about using his grey knights instead>He went on this whole spiel about how grey knight anti-tank is almost non-existent then started ranting about how they lost everything cool about their identity>I suggest we could play an earlier edition then>He says he is too tired for a game (Fair enough)Is GK anti-tank that bad? He is was half coherent so I couldn't understand all of his rambling, but I did catch that they don't have many options and used to rely on mortals spam to make up for it.
>>94356416For netlistoids sure
I like depictions of Kharn that play up his Germanness and his cordial nature when the nails aren't biting
>>94356427tanks in general are too hard to kill for a lot of factionsSometimes the solution is "use your tank to kill the enemy tank" which causes... balance issues.
>>94356447I like his modern depictions where he's a screaming retard with none of his previous cunning, wit, or leadership abilities. Lol teamkill!
>>94356427youre friend is too emotion if he is going on 'rants'its a game for children tell him its not about the dice its about hanging out with a friend for pretzels and beer
>>94356470I've found that while my noise marines can wound a tank to get a clean kill I need to focus fire with my my reaper termie, my oblits and my heldrakeFine if they just have 1 land raider trundling about but for a tank heavy army all you can do is wish Robin Cruddence has a brain aneurysm.
>>94355784I'm out of town until tomorrow but I think I want to paint when I get home. Thanks, Calli.
>>94356496>Le just don't care about it xD
>>94356406Big primer posts here they love adding fucking pointless layers of paint and debating on how it must say primer on the rattle can when any old fucking paint through an airbrush can serve as a primer and acrylic resin adheres to the plastic 1000x better than pewter or lead anyway.Also always always use only jet black primer and fucking no other color ever, light should not escape the model. Now break out your titanium white, pastel pink, and bright yellow thinned to the consistency of watercolors and get layering, fucking retards.
>>94356485Yeah as a World Eater player myself I feel like I am going crazy when people say that World Eaters has no tactics whatsoever and just meatgrind. Yes, they were always crazy and lived for the melee combat, but they would always have something else going for them and weren't locked out of certain things. Not even AoS Khorne is like that.
>>94356441retard
>>94356512If you are playing cursed factions like TSons you are forgiven. In all other cases, stop being a netlist sheep
>>94356470Have we swung too far in the other direction then from the time of vehicle tables? Vehicles are supposed to be tough but have something to bring them down. There surely has to be a middle ground between "1/6 chance to kill a vehicle with the right weapon" and "Hope you like burning through 10+ wounds wounding on 5's and 6's.">>94356496On one hand yeah, but on the other hand I get it as well, even in a beer and pretzels scenario you would want to have some semblance of balance even if it isn't ultra competitive. Even in the days where the game was much more casual, people hated shit like virus and vortex grenades.Also I don't entirely blame him for today, as I said he stayed up all night trying to build and paint his deathguard for today but didn't get it finished, so fatigue is in the mix.
>>94356509World Eaters don't have Teeth of Khorne or jump packs or generic foot lords or bikers/juggernauts because fuck you. Enjoy your single character model (probably a Butcher Surgeon) alongside your codex.
>>94356526No on foot lord hurts, my termie lord that was blinged out for my entire 40k journey is now a master of executions, what a joke.
>>94356519Why would you see a post complaining about list BUILDING and assume the person is not BUILDING lists.Genuine subhuman level logic there.How are you this fucking stupid? And yes list building IS fucking boring now because you are making far fewer choices. No buying wargear, no optimizing and squeezing out every point you can, no force org, no platoons, nothing but bland stripped down shit.
>>94356538You sure are mad, shitter
I will now buy your terminator kit
>>94356541If you had an IQ above 30 you'd understand.
>>94356543link to STL? I want to make some red butchers since GW won't give me real ones
>>94356553Says the guy netlisting lol
Played a 1000 point game of my salamanders vs friend's sisters. Until now I've only played combat patrol, he's been picking up 1k games at lgs.Was going alright, until he drew a secret mission to put Morven Vahl on my home objective, where he proceeded to wipe my ballistus, then the eradicators that came out of hiding to fight her.I should have used command reroll more often, but still. Vahl has full rerolls when getting shot at AND when shooting, and when I managed to wound her, she used a miracle.How can I respond to her better?
>>94356555Why not just use the csm terminator kit? new terminators + that upgrade sprue are too clean to be red butchers
>>94355878Aussies not welcome, go on back the way you came
>>94356563I have good cataphractii pauldrons and lightning claws to slap on and a bunch of other bits for themand the 2019 CSM termies are still hunch backed and short
>>94356509World Eaters can formulate as complex tactics as any space marine but whether they are followed in the heat of battle when the nails are aflame is another thing The bitterest pill is only having the juggelo lord but what I miss most is raptors/warp talons

>>94356593me, but I will not send you my catalog because you are rude and fat
>>94356576Cheers king
>>94356576is that for the leviathan terminators?
>>94356528World Eaters got their own army the same year GW released the special World Eaters terminator character as the Warhammer + model. You know, as a funny little prank.
>>94356509does aos khorne have a ranged unit?
>>94356610Cheating a little bit because the demons do have a cannon, but demons still fall under their god with AoS armies so it's not actually cheating.Even then, the AoS khorne mortals have a variety of ways to play the melee game and even have support units.
>>94356591Primaris models are bigger and coolerit was a good change
>>94356593>he hasn't huffed a bucket of tamiya and wandered into the desert night to find the recasters' emails between the stars
>>94355930Why are incels thisad about cam whores? You're a nerd that plays with little toys, sure, but stop being so emotional about inane shite.
>>94356523It's honestly just the toughness table.Melta-likes wounding on 5's is just cruel.
>>94356605Nah it's for the new kit that's sold separately, leviathan terminators are janky monopose pushfit and don't work with the STLs
>>94356613counterpoint:
>>94356634the worst part of old marines
>>94356634home...
>>94356619porn isn't healthy it makes the people who consume it antisocial.
>>94356636fuck you nigga
>>94356638why does jorking my peanits feel good if I'm not supposed to do it
>>94356634can my cum filter through it?
>>94356643if you only eat the food you like and you have 10 meals a day you're going to become 10000 lbs.
>>94356613Not really. GW could have updated the firstborn marine sculpts to be taller to reflect their sizes in the lore on the tabletop but instead most likely because GW was bleeding money at the time decided to instead machine-milk the marine piggies. Then have BL "lore-patch" the whole thing. Must have really sucked to be a BL author at the time trying to make Primaris more than just a asspull back then.
>>94356660I wonder what will happen when heresy gets mk7 marines.
>>94356593Anon you have to find out on your own here.Recasters have been taken down by GW somehow in the past. And while most GW interns are probably refreshing /3dpg/ on the daily hoping for something, there are most likely GW interns lurking in these very threads hoping for recaster links to be provided to be put on GW's radar.
>>94356660What was the best thing to come out of the late 7th/early 8th "seeing whatever sticks on the wall" period?
>>94356672Death Guard getting their own army separate from CSM. They still rule the roost when it comes to the cult legions.
>>94356668very well
>>94356664GW most likely will never release mk7 marines. GW probably fears the HH MK7 marines overtaking the primaris in sales. Probably the same reason that the return of "epic" as Legions Imperialis was shoved into the HH setting was because GW was afraid of it overtaking 40k in terms of sales with the waac-whales.You're better off getting fellow Warhammer fans to find an STL maker who takes commissions and pool your money for said STL maker to create Mk7 in HHAoD scale and poses then release the models on a certain special app. Which is what I've considered doing for a long time except I don't have friends willing to fork the possible amount of money required.
>>94356153I'm curious if he was using the Vanguard Spearhead detachment.It sounds like he shouldn't have been able to get shot to shit so easily if he was since any 12+" attack against him would've had a BS penalty and cover.>>94356168I mean, fighting infantry spam as any marine army is tough unless you make a list specifically to beat it. Trying to out-shoot IG is a losing proposition unless you have some fuckery like Shrike or maybe a Phobos Librarian to prevent key units from being targeted at all.
>>94356660good, marine players are fags and need to open their walletsim glad GW survived off the backs of those losers so i can play my armyi also dont 3d print and pay full price because i actually want to support the company
>>94356634I'm surprised that at no point was that grill ever given inner details to make it resemble a gothic arch.
>>94356678Alex isn't scammer
>>94356690at that size...?
>>94356696Yeah at that size. Given GW wanting Warhammer 40k to be "gothic sci-fi" me and the boys always referred to the mk7 marine head as the "gothic arch face" or "arch face" for short.

This is my first time doing fine details like this and I'm pretty happy with the result
>>94356634It's incredible how shit the mk X helmet is.You just put any Mk6/7/8 helmet on any primaris model and it automatically looks better.The kneepad thingies are also awful
>>94356168Codex compliant marines are fine, it seems he just had a retarded list. You can run Iron Storm with some vindicators/dreads and smash most other armies.
>>94356721I'm literally vomitting right now really though it looks good so far
>>94356714really?
>>94356732That's not the worse part, this is
>>94356735what did i just say
>>94356739oh god I didn't see that part
>>94356732>>94356739What the hell are you on about?
Please reveal the Imperial Guard stuff already dammit so I know what to buy
>>94356741I don't know. But alex isn't scammer?
just need to wait on some sprue goo to dry so I can fill in a couple gaps more but calling this kitbash ready for paintshould I keep the mechadendrite under his right arm or remove it, I feel like it's kinda cluttered but also that clutter works well with techmarines
>>94356751catachans, that's it.
>>94356753put that thing somewhere else like the other side of his arm.
>>94356759It's the only place I can fit it snugly on his back with the scuffed harness I built for him lel
>*takes the flavor out of your army*>*gives it useless rules*>*tankshocks your mum*Pshht. Nothing personnel, kid.
>>94356751I hope the new guard will introduce a power axe section for the guard.
>>94356748NTA but the overspill lad.
>>94356562beg my pardon, she had 2x saves? or I might be remembering miracle dice?I'm not familiar with his army, I thought he was rolling a save and a FNP, but I might be confusing it with the battle sisters rolling FNP twice to cheese some 2 damage shots.There was a lot going on, and I was mainly focusing on learning how to play with missions.Either way, Vahl killed 2/3 my army, including both units I though would at least slow her down.
>>94356583>>94356777oops
>>94355865>vtubersI love not knowing what this is but I can guess lol
>>94356777Doesn't get reroll saves or anything like that, no. Tbh Vahl and her buddies are horrendous at that points level, there's not a huge amount you can do unless you have decent long ranged shooting with volume
What are the best recent (within the last year or so) 40k books?
>>94356792Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen is pretty good (no Primarchs).
>>94356792Morvenn Vahl Spear of Faith
>>94356061Most likely. Soon may mean a lot of things though - their codex wasn't in the Q1 roadmap so best case scenario is Q2 in the spring/early summer next year, and GW usually plans their model release waves around a codex launch, so chances are whenever they do get their codex this edition, they'll get some new stuff to go along with it. I'd like some kind of dreadnought equivalent personally.
>>94356777You can roll 1 save (either invuln or armour) and feel no pains for wounds that go through. You need to roll a feel no pain for every wound allocated though, the best way to beat FNP is volume of fire or 2+ damage shots. If you had eradicators and were running gladius, use assault doctrine to advance and shot, get you eradicators into melta range of Vhal and then just overload her ability to mitigate damage with FNP. Couple it with Oath of moment, eradicators should have done the job.
Any cool GSC models you've painted, anons? I just picked up the Combat Patrol and was hoping to see some. I don't like being a Box Art Andy, but I'm also very uncreative.
>>94356792Probably the 3 part finale of the Horus Heresy?
>>94356594Isha
>>94356821NTA but at low point games her unit just picks up the first threatening thing you put within 18" in overwatch up to and including vehicles
>>94356821I was in firestorm, had 3x eradicator and the biologis, they did 6 wounds to the warsuits, ballistus did 2.Managed to kill the last warsuit at the very end, but vahl made it to my home objective and scored secret mission to win 67-52.I have a brutalis, gladiator, land raider, and aggressors that I'm still working on. One of them might be more efficient vs her?I imagine I could have positioned better, but idk
>>94356622What confuses the hell out of me is that they put the ANTI rule in the game specifically for circumstances like this, but then just... didn't give it to melta weapons, and gave them their own, shittier rule instead. Giving melta weapons anti-vehicle 4+ would be a pretty simple solution to making infantry AV an option outside of some armies fishing for lethals.
>>94356863Aggressors with flamers would probably do ok. Auto hit means she doesn't get an armour save so it goes straight to FNP.
>>94355784You know it's funny because sometimes I think /vt/ is the worst board but then I remember /40kg/ and its army of discord shitposters still exists.
>>94356061probably when they get their codex. the second kill team already somewhat assuaged their need for a cheap scout and a cheap melee unit. and we've seen at least 1 of their jump packs so we know thats coming. what they need still is some kind of combat heavy walker, and i'd like to see them get some skimmers. in the art they are clearly depicted as having a lot of skimmers and ships and such flying around their cities (the skimmers are shaped like hammers), and given their whole shtick is having lost/advanced technology, it would be kind of a shame if they just continued to get repeats of slightly altered imperial tanks (land fortress-land raider, sagitaur-razorback)
>>94356829>cool>GSCPick one
>>94356879>Auto hit means she doesn't get an armour saveWhat in the fuck are you talking about

>>94355814>picUmm...
>>94356891maybe the firestorm devastating torrent stratagem
>>94356880My brother in Tzeentch, if you think /40kg/ is worse than some of the autistic shit that infests /vt/ you clearly don't go there enough. Also there's generals on /vg/ that are way worse than both.
>>94356061>>94356884Land Traincenterpiece unit that doubles as cover for your smaller units80 dollars per car, you can make it up to 10 carsNow that's what I call profits
>>94356886>he doesn't like the Rockgrinder or Jackal Alphus
>>94356660Or BL could not describe marines as 10ft tall giants? And primarchs even larger? this whole "true scale" shit is from BL using talentless writers
>>94356884Are those skimmers? They look more like standard spaceships to me. Speaking of, I hope GW eventually relaunches Battlefleet Gothic. I was never interested in it when I got into 40k but now that I'm older the idea of space naval battles sounds really fun.
>>94356680>GW probably fears the HH MK7 marines overtaking the primaris in salesHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>94356751Felinids, that's it.
>>94356951how tall are space marines as described in RT, 2nd, and 3rd.
>>94356972as standing at least a foot taller than a tall normal human
>>943569727ft in armour was average, but there where smaller and larger like most peopl
>>94356987>starts at 1' I hate brits so much it's unreal
>>94356953looks like a mix, you've got the big cruiser in the back but there are some smaller ships and shuttles in the foregroundwe dont really have a ton to go on, the whole codex's lore and art section was like fucking 10 pages long.
>>94355784>Now that 40k is officially vtuber cool, which girls do you want to see start armies? Which armies would they have?Sisters of Snu-Snu! And just like their Vtuber, they'll all have pubes.

>>94356682>It sounds like he shouldn't have been able to get shot to shit so easily if he was since any 12+" attack against him would've had a BS penalty and cover.He was using that, yes. He was stacking AoC with it for -2 AP on his crusader and captain unit, it was pretty brutal.
What's the most vampire/undead looking faction. Just want cute girls in aristocratic clothes
is there anything like an arthur and his questing grail knights in 40k?

>>94357073>>94357076just play fantasy
>>94357073Probably DEldar? Maybe you could go with Sisters if you really really kitbash/use 3D printed blood angels bits? The real answer is just go play TOW or AoS.
>>94357073High society infiltrated by GSCThat's your only option, sorry

>>94357107why :(
>>94357073You can have fun with Dark Eldar wyches
>>94357076Imperial knights. Or AoS.
>>94357080So which one are you that made you take personal offense? Poor? Porn addicted? Retarded? Perhaps a combination of the two or more?
>>94357073dark eldar/ynnari fit the theme the best. some necromundra stuff also hits those vibes and imperial nobility does have a lot in common thematically and visually with vampire aristocrats
>>94357076>>94357073The answer to both is Imperial Knights. Kind of.>>94357073If you just want "aristocratic fempires" you can customize your mechs and say the pilots are cute girls in frilly dresses. If you actually want female models: Dark Eldar. If you're open to robotic pseudo-egyptian nobility there's lots of STLs for female Necron characters.>>94357076Literally Knights. But instead of horses and squires you have giant robots and not-so-giant robots.
>>94357112because I said so
>>94357087Did you somehow fuck up putting together that push-fit mini?
Just remember to ignore the 12-year-olds who like to pretend racism is funny, and talk about warhammer. Do I want to paint more IG or more Custodes tonight lads?
>>94357120>>94357115>>94357097okay, i was thinking of making my own custom mydudes chapter themed around knights and the quest for the grail, and using the black templar models but painted silver, with each knight having his own colors and heraldry on their tabards and tilting shield, but i wanted to make sure i wasnt stepping on an existing chapters toes in so doing, and it sounds like there isnt already a good 1 to 1 of that
>>94356753>Terminator>TechmarineWhat a shock the orange and teal sloppafag is a lorelet tourist too
>>94357125No?
>>94357129You might want to look into Grey Knights questing knight anon. They do a lot of the personal heraldry stuff, and they're all about being holy paladins out smiting the shit outta demons. Just replace the work "psychic" with "faithful" and and "emperor" with "lady" and you're basically space brettonia.
>>94357136Why exactly would techmarines not be allowed to be terminators when other specialist HQs like Chaplains and Librarians are?
>>94357012Hold on a sec, trying to find that meme where one /40kg/ guy steps on some codexes.
>>94357150Chapters don't trust techmarines and only tolerate them since they're the ones who fix their shit
>>94357136It's called imagination you GW dickslimer. The game has always been about Your Dudes. Stop letting GW tell you how to make your armies and start actually engaging with the creative side of the hobby.
>>94357126Paint more custodes speedpaintanon
>>94357160Some.Other are full on mechanicus aligned and I doubt they would have a problem with giving their chief techmarine a relic terminator suit
>>94357163>>94357180>noooo don't insult my headcanon or you're a shill!!!
>>94356753What did you use to make this?Just one modern terminator and a techmarine model spliced together?I'm up for some big ass techmarine of my own at some point, terminators are the fucking best
Anons, tell me not to start a tau army. I have been playing them in the card game, and they're so cool. I like their lore. I like giant robots. I just don't want people to dislike me because of my army.
>>94357192What the fuck are you even saying you retard.There's a ton of chapters with closer ties to mars than the imperium.
>>94357197Don't worry anon, blueberry hate is just (mostly) a meme.At least you didn't fancy knights (that's me, I'm fucked)
>>94357136meds
>>94357203Oh, well fuck. I have a knight. It was the first model I bought just to paint it. But now I want to start an actual army.
>>94357136Techmarines can wear terminator armor.
>>94357208You first>>94357215Yet there's never been a model for it or even any mention of it in any codex, curious!
>>94356977>>94356987which one did it better
>>94357197they are cool, and they have a fully modern plastic range with multiple playstyles, a lot of customization, and make for good canvases for custom color schemes as well as having several good studio schemes.the downsides are that their gameplay tends to rely on some cumbersome or annoying mechanics, and they can be annoying to play and play against because of it, though not as bad as something like eldar or knights. tau are not as hated as they used to be, and their previous hypercancer mechanics and lists have mostly been removed these days. so go for it
>>94357217
>>94357217that's because GW is lazy.
>>94357217>Yet there's never been a model for itYeah and neither has the Emperor ever been a model. And still exists.
>>94355595
>>94357218Primaris.
>>94357217>any mention of it in any codex8th ed newfag confirmed
>>94357192If you only accept what GW gives you and want others to do the same, you are indeed a shill and a newfag. I bet you only build armies for competitive play like a good little drone.Enjoy your femstodes and other top-down corpo mandated slop I guess.
>>94357220Alright, I'm just gonna start buying mechs until I'm a pooranon then.
Since we got female custodes it means that female marines will be happening, it's no longer of "If" but rather "When".I predict we'll see female marines around 12th edition the earliest, so around 4.5 half years time we might see them.11th could be possible, but it feels too early and GW has to let this "shock" of female custodes stabilize.But seeing what actually resulted from the female custodes, ie. nothing. I highly doubt it would hurt GW in anyway. They are too big to fail at this point.
>>94357248>Enjoy your femstodesI will
>>94357228I'm not a fan of that blanche concept art because it really is a shameless ripoff more than a FW Tyrant a ripoff of Alien Queen.
>>94357270good little goy gooner
>>94357020>fixedyou mean made more lame?40k is supposed to be grotesque and ludicrous, tank-taur is perfectly fine
>>94357281Lord of skulls is retarded and doesn't belong in 40k.
>>94357236Feel free to cite your sources
>>94357248I bet that if someone was making femstodes BEFORE they have been made explicitly canon you'd be throwing just as much of a hissyfit calling people lorelets for doing that, which would be pretty two-faced of you.
>GW axed the scythe overlord>But kept the option in anyways
>>94357266Nobody gives a fuck what a subhuman frogposting tourist like you has to say
>>94357287so do you yet here we are
>>94355784>TQMori should switch to Necrons just becauseWawa - Eldar or OrksBiboo - MarinesEla - IG or AdmechERB - any army. She's a Brit, it is her birthright.would love to see what an actual artist like Raora would paint, but she's just too dumb for 40k.
>>94357266>GW explicitly state that making custodes also female is a move to separate them from marines because they feel like they've been too similar before>"it means that female marines will be happening"Frozen Flames-grade brain.
>>94355966Great batrep as always and I know it's not your fault obviously but man I hate the smaller table sizes most places have switched to this edition.
>>94355862Are GK even Primarising in lore?
I was reading the official blurb about the recent Custodes character and the description is careful to only use "they" pronouns when talking about the model. Every other Custodes model exclusively uses male pronouns. Very interesting.
>>94357289Not really. If a particular player made femstodes or femarines, I wouldn't care because it doesn't affect canon, it's just one dude having fun with his models. I would happily play against him and pretend to listen to his OC lore.There's a healthy separation between the grand canon metanarrative and your own little piece of it. You're free to have genderswapped marines, techmarines in terminator armour, chaplains in white robes, kroot with looted Riptide guns mounted on knarlocs (or your own OC kroot shape) in your little bubble. Have fun.
>>94357302we'll find out next year with their codex/refresh.
any knight players have suggestions on dealing with elite infantry?we seem to have great horde and anti-tank, but you get bogged down by TQ shit and suddenly a huge chunk of your list's points is gone
>>94357318>have fun with all those creative personal concepts!>but if this particular thing becomes canonized, its branded corpo-mandated slop by meAnon sorry changing your tone to a more positive one doesn't null your previous statement.
>>94355892GK should be squatted only when Daemons are squatted out of 40k.
>>94357326take some Navy Breachers and screen a bit.
>>94357331>GK successfully gets Daemons as part of Emperor's plan to Imperialize Chaos by getting rid of non-Imperial Chaos>they retireSuch a peaceful ending.
>>94357296Mori said she wanted to get Necrons too but stopped herself. Considering how obsessive she becomes with her hobbies she's probably going to get them eventually. Wawa - Eldar or Sisters. She likes women.Biboo - She's said she likes World Eaters and Khorne Daemons.Apparently someone in JP is also a 40k fan and wanted to paint on stream but couldn't get the permissions back in the day.
>>94357329Let me put it on simplified greentext terms then>If your fun, creativity and imagination conflicts with canon, the former take priority>If the canon is retconned or changed into compliance, be by corporate mandate or spiteful activists, it's bad and sloppy
Whens the new bread? I need maximum (You)'s
>>94355862even if GK are, the update will probably suck ass. thus me upscaling GK terminators myself.
>>94357347>JPI bet it's Botan
>>94357360Custodes are barely fleshed out as a faction and have had less fluff to their name than fucking genestealers. And any change that makes them less Goldmarines (which they still kind of are) is a good change.
>>94357347Wawa loves elves doesn't she? Has to be Eldar or Wych-heavy DE. Don't show her AoS Witch Elves or we're fucked.
>>94357360Again, doesn't change the fact that you are treating the same hypothetical before-and-after differently solely because it was canonized.
>>94357365we're five pages and/or 76 images away from a new thread, friend
>>94357377But we want them playing AoS don't we?
>>94357377Yup. From her mom's side, who is a massive Tolkien fan... oh god she's gonna pick up the Middle Earth miniature game, isn't she?>>94357369Could also be one of the Holostars guys.
>>94357270Based, anon.
>>94357270They will be ugly DEI monsters with disgusting personalitiesEnjoy
>>94357374Most people will disagree.>>94357391Well... yeah. I think I explained why fairly clearly. If my personal approval or disdain matters to you more than the reasoning behind it then I'm afraid this isn't the gotcha you think it is.
>>94357270Me too.
>>94357398Oh fuck. What if she learns about the ASoIAF miniatures game as well.
>>94357419>Most people will disagree.Appeal to majority and dubious one at that. Custodes aren't some rich faction with old lore spanning editions upon editions, all they had prior to 2016 is just Visions of Heresy, which isn't much.And the point about them being goldenmarines is definitely one with solid argument behind it.
>>94357418>but official thingMost official things GW do look like shit.Even modern SoB are dogshit and look like 50 year old men in drag.
>>94357419I can tell by the way you type that you are a newfag.
>>94357433Listen, if you like femstones then good for you. You're not gonna convince me or any custodes player that it's a positive thing, If GWs had confidence on it, they would've released models.>>94357443And I can tell by the way you type you're a fag.
>>94357447Why do you think I am trying to convince you? I am trying to squeeze even a tiny bit of actual logical argument instead of appealing to feeling out of you.
Does this amount of terrain look okay? Is it too much? I feel like I need a gaming mat that has a structure on it like roads or something to help assist
>>94357374>fleshed outThat's the problem: they weren't actually changing the fluff. GeeDubs literally claimed that femstodes existed since their addition to 40k. They simply never bothered to write it down in the codex, BL novels or represent them on the tabletop through model kits. That's why anons were pissed.
>>94357459Maybe something more to block that big ass firing lane
>>94357466Except the Codex entries that explicitly said they were recruited from the SONS of noble houses of Terra.>>94357454Your entire argument hinges on your personal perception and not any logical argument. Custodes are goldmarines and were always meant to. Changing canon for the sake of variety is not the way to add variety to your fluff-Go back to r/sigmarxism where these fake claims of using logic still pass.
>>94357447I can tell by the way you walk, you're a woman's man. No time to talk
>>94357466It was a retcon, plain and simple, but an okay first step to making them their own thing instead of picrelated which is just embarrassing. The very bottom of this article explains why they did what they did: >https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/TBbxxG5O/the-tithes-episode-2-custodes-dont-ask-twice/>>94357481>Custodes are goldmarines and were always meant to.Not according to GW, see above.
>>94357478Trying to fix it; I think I need more little shit like craters and sandbags + debris to match in
>>94357489>It was a retconYou're misunderstanding what they said.They didn't claim that it was a change to the setting. They said that femstodes, purely in the context of the faction, have *always existed* and were simply an unexplored aspect of the faction.It's patently clear that they haven't always existed. The 8th edition codex says they are a brotherhood. Similarly, they were named after the 300 and their close association to Alexander the Great, all of which were exclusively male (for reasons which do not need repeating). But GW claimed they still existed regardless. Because they were lying.
>>94357491For a friendly game that should be okay, provided its not guard vs world eaters. You should aim to get a couple of large LOS blocking pieces.The mat looks great. Where is it from?
>>94357507Why are you ignoring a more elaborate writeup on their stance in the matter in favour of an (earlier) twitter post?>But GW claimed they still existed regardless.Thats just a regular retcon, it's information that supercedes previously available one and installs a new truth. Simple as. They have never ever outright stated "yeah this previous info is no longer true, we're changing the narrative" in either a codex or an article. It's just stating the new truth, nothing exactly different has been made.
>>94357507>they were named after the 300 and their close association to Alexander the GreatI thought they were inspired by the 10,000 Greek soldiers in Xenophon's Anabasis?
>>94357513>Battlefield in a Box: Gaming Mat - Desert / Grass Im an ausfag so its easy to access here; dunno if you will have access to it w/e you are fromAlso it will most likely be>Adepta Sororitas/Space Marines vs Tau/GuardMy borther likes gunlines. Shooting is gay
Speaking of Custodes, it's funny how they describe themselves as counselors, scholars and philosophers, yet whenever they interact with space marines their attitude can best be described as "shut up and do what I say, you useless commoner" .
>>94357507>But GW claimed they still existed regardless.This is just standard for GW retcons, it's how they've done it since the game started. Leman Russ used to be just a marine captain in RT but later when the creators came up with the primarchs it was changed through retroactive continuety (retcon) into that "Leman was always a primarch."It's exact same shit as with Vashtorr, he "always existed" even though everyone knows it's bullshit.They always just inject the new thing into 40k and pretend that it was like that always or it existed but off-screen and we never saw it before.
>>94357524No. Emp's ship is named after Alexander's horse, Bucephelus. The closest guardians of the Emperor are also called the Companions, of which there are 300.>>94357518I'm not ignoring it. They said what I just told you in the link you gave. >"This fact came as a real surprise to many, since it wasn’t something previously explored. That, in and of itself, isn’t a particularly unusual thing for Warhammer 40,000 and its lore; there are simply loads of things the Warhammer Studios have never expressly stated, whether that’s ruling them in or out."A retcon changes a previously established fact. This isn't that; they are explicitly stating that femstodes have always existed, but were simply never talked about.
>>94357561How do I get a weapon like that?
>>94357570>A retcon changes a previously established factThey have never outright stated that they retcon things, it has always been delivered in a "it has always been like this" fashion. I hard press you to find a codex entry or an article of theirs that specifically refers to previously established information as now erroneous and being superseded by newer stuff. You won't be able to do that I am pretty sure because they never do or have done that. That's how retcons are made, you just never noticed because it haven't affected you on a personal/emotional level or something
>>94357507>their close association to Alexander the GreatThe one who failed to get his men to continue marching at Opis? It's poetry. Half the Legions went traitor.
>>94357586>That's how retcons are made, you just never noticedRetcon stands for retroactive continuity, retard. This isn't retroactive. They are -explicitly- saying that it was always the case, purely from a game development perspective.
>>94357592Splitting hairs. Call it a rewrite, call it a retcon, it makes little difference in todays common nerd vernacular. >They are -explicitly- saying that it was always the caseJust as any ret-, sorry, "rewrite" they have ever made. You don't have to go looking far for examples, take Necrons for example and how they just made it a new truth that they pokeball'd their gods instead of being subservient to them. They just always pokeball'd them, the previous fluff is obsolete and written out silently. They never announce this kind of stuff, for obvious PR reasons. Custodes being of either sex is no different.
>>94357584Ask the Blood Ravens, they would know.
post canon schemes that bother youfor me, its helbrechts solid gold armor.
>>94357584Anon has reminded me that there's still a Destiny 2 event going on and I will soon return to obtain better fashion for my characters. I am also reminded that For Honor has a better Halloween Destiny 2 event than Destiny 2. A very odd irony.
>>94357584>>94357605Alternatively, you can ask the Minotaurs chapter master, Asterion Moloc, but... You do not wanna do that.
>>94357614>MinotaursMinotaurs'
>>94357606I think most Sister schemes look way too similar to each other, aside from uhhh the red one. Same goes for most Cult legions, ESPECIALLY World Eaters.
>>94357605>>94357614Is it okay to do >counts asusing tons of Custodes and other chapter gear, saying these are all Blood Ravens who merely are gifted wonderous gifts?
>>94357622I think its kind of flanderizing the image of the chapter and should be restricted to 1-3 character models instead.
>>94357606That's not gold, that's bronze.
>>94357628>I think its kind of flanderizing the image of the chapter
>>94357614Or the Deathwatch.
The plot twist is that the Blood Ravens didn't steal anything. They're just extremely good at making imitations and forgeries.
>>94357561Because writers are stupid and retarded
>>94357561>counselors50% of the Space Marines are willful traitors and chapters turn Renegade or Chaos all the time. Counselling them by telling them not to step out of line and submit to the Custodes is normal>ScholarsThey read history about Marine betrayal.>PhilosophersThey know millions of arguments why Marines suck.
>>94357650Exactly how does one imitate chaos corruption?
>>94357674They do such a good forgery that Khorne himself mistook the two and thought>WTF I blessed that why are its powers gone?and blessed the copy.
>>94357673Are the golden failures crying again?Seems so
>>94357459it's fine but the terrain is too scattered on the edges, bundle it closer to the center
How should I equip my chaos termis?
>>94357716With weapons.
Fat custodian.
>>94355784Shiina did it first
>>94356323>fat gretchins>heads I can put on pikes and trophy racks for decorations>giant hands holding foodstuffs I can slap on top of a squigbuggy to make it look more like a food truckYou may be on to something there, anon
>>94357745Soon
>>94357568>Leman Russ used to be just a marine captain in RTHe was only that for barely a year. By 1989 he was already a primarch along the rest and the current fluff was settled by 1991.> as with Vashtorr, he "always existed" Wrong. Vashtorr was introduced as a new daemon and not even Abbaddon knew about him.>They always just inject the new thing into 40k and pretend that it was like that always or it existed but off-screen and we never saw it before.>>94357586>it has always been delivered in a "it has always been like this" fashionWrong. Most of the time it's suppossed to have have been in the background, but "it was like that always" retcons are reserved for explicit major revamps of factions like 5th nuCrons. And femstodes utterly contradict and nullyfy the Custodes/SoS lore since 2004. It's a total ass-pull for stupid woke points.
>>94357584Personally I use very thin talassar blue over a light grey basecoat, then do the edge highlighting and lightning streaks using a white gundam marker The trick is to load your brush with the blue like you would a glaze
>>94356660>to reflect their sizes in the loreBut it doesn't. Primaris are the taller ones
>>94357781>Most of the time it's suppossed to have have been in the backgroundWhich they refer to, Custodes have never been mentioned to NOT be able to be female, just described as drafting from males. It's not a negative like Space Marines which are outright stated to not be able to be female.
>>94357584The current event gives weapons like this so maybe you'd get the blade like it. Dunno the rest.
>>94357781>but "it was like that always" retcons are reserved for explicit major revamps of factions like 5th nuCrons.So which one is it? You gotta pick a side anon. Female custodes are either a major revamp or its a minor thing. And if it's a minor thing, you'd have to concede that it's not worth fretting over.
I know that "psychic" were treated as weapons a long time ago, but it's really shit there isn't a pool of psychic powers that can be used anymore. Give at least that and people would be happy.
>>94357745Can't handle a THICC woman, chudd?
why doesn't terra or mars have multiple or even a single complete STC hidden somewhere? why don't these capitals of the galaxy have the sum of human knowledge at its height stored and maintained?
>>94357793>Custodes have never been mentioned to NOT be able to be femaleThis is just a lie. They've been male coded since the start, and by 2004 they were given the Sisters of Silence as their female counterparts when their current design was settled. A Byzantium version of the middle ages Marine monks/Sororitas nuns.
>>94357584Do you mean like pic or like >>94357561? There's the Frost Wind Festival weapons that have a icy effect if you mean the crystal-like latter.
>>94355852>Two more weeks kabalbros... Trust the Archon
>>94357817The thing that shits me off the most about femstodes is that even despite the supposed need for "representation", they do nothing to support the existing female helpers of the custards.
>>94357813terra fell to barbarismmars fell to superstition chances are that there are stc in the noctis labyrinth but good luck
>>94357813Mars almost certainly has multiple complete STCs, hidden in the noctis labyrinth.
>>94357584
are you gonna get a christmas box lads
>>94357799it's a major revamp peddled as a minor thing without doing the actual work to sell it. That's why it's bullshit.If femstodes were mandated by the Emperor and properly featured as a new thing, it wouldn't be such a problem, it would even add to the questions and doubts Custodes have about their duty.Instead we got a retarded and lazy fuck-you-chuds retcon that's up there with The Last Jedi bs.
>>94357837Of the ones with armies I do own they don't offer me anything that I don't already have.Of the ones with armies I do not own, they aren't appealing to me.
>>94357837I was going to get the knight one, but fuck that shit for not having all the options on the questoris.Instead I've given myself a treat of buying now another hive tyrant, a bunch of stuff of the new magazine for January and I will probably get myself either a leviathan dread or a predator sooner rather than later
>>94357837My Army has never gotten a Christmas box and never will
>>94357826Femstodes only exist for the scene in pic related, period. They're a danger-hair power fantasy about making men shut up and obey.Which is also a stupid flanderization of Custodes vs Marines, just like that retarded story with they killing primaris for no reason.
Are the predator variants hard to magnetise?I'd really only want to magnetise the cannon to change variant, the sponsons I can stick with one
>>94357856>just like that retarded story with they killing primaris for no reason.They disobeyed him.
>>94357837I thought about it, but I think I'm going to put in a big recast order instead.
>>94357856That episode was so fucking shit.I don't give a shit it's a custodes you are not convincing a chapter master to grovel like that.
>>94357750And Aurelia did it before her.In the vtubing industry the more do something, the better.I for one hope to see a crossover mini tournament.Shiina's OrksCalli's MarinesBiboo... probably World Eaters (she just said today that she wants to try painting too)Matara's Tyranids Hope they can convince more people to join in. Someone should teach them about Escalation Leagues.
>>94357837Maybe the fec box if it gets a heavy discount
>>94357795I tried the newest event's weapon for old guy and it didn't look as crystal. More dark blue energy.
>>94357870Custodes do not have direct authority over marines. In fact, they don't have any direct power over anything but the Palace. By imperial law, the marines in both cases were well within their rights to refuse Custodes orders.
>>94357856Sad thing is I was conceptually pretty interested in Femstodes. Yet both their implementation and response has been nothing but lowest common denominator retards, the most tired and predictable trash ever. They don't even have models, it's disgusting.
>>94357995>everyone not liking femstodes is a secondary nomodelskeep telling yourself that buddy
I wish a lot of things had models. When do we start getting new models again?
detach sisters from the cringe that's custodeslet the pariah girls hook up with the psychic boys if custodes need someone to be their bitches give them collared thunder warriors instead
>>94358001you're such a fucking retard, learn to read you fucking illiterate zoomie fuck
>Watch House of a 1000 corpses>Feel like making more Haemonculi coven by the end of the movieOther than the standard crypt horrors as kitbash for Grotesques, what are some good models as the base for them? I like the Wracks but the other haemonculus models aren't quite there for me.t. Own shit ton of Kabalites and Wych units but only one unit of grotesques and Urien.
>>94358003Build and paint the models you have sitting in your closet before crying for new ones, cretins
>>94358014Cronos/Talos and Wracks all come with a bunch of extra arms and bits. And those faceplate masks. And some extra wrack bodies for pilots out of every 5 kit.With a little work and some greenstuff you can add limbs and masks to basically anything you like. Everyone makes me their own Grotesques, but there's no reason you could make some Wyches or custom Kabalites as well to coven them up. The faceplates fit on the new Mandrakes pretty well, too.Make yourself a custom Urien/Haemonculus too out of any AdMech tech priests or the Necromunda tech gang (house delaque).
>>94357270Same
>>94357136Post models
>>94357946Just got it. Yes, it doesn't look like that. I will
>>94358007>detach sisters from the cringe that's custodesSo return them to what they used to be?Sounds good.
>>94358032>Cronos/Talos and Wracks all come with a bunch of extra arms and bits. And those faceplate masks.Yeah I am well aware of that aspect and even applied to to my own grotesques and some misc. models for other DE units (These ones are painted now, only pic on hand right now though), I was more asking about what would be good base models to convert using parts, which you gave me an interesting direction with admech models. That has gotten my interest and now I am going to plan, thanks anon.
>>94358014moulder skaven, gsc aberrants, you can also assemble hatebounds without the armor to convert some captured marinesalso kow nightstalkers
>>94358014some of the clan moulder skaven stuff might be a neat starting point
>>94358060>>94358065With some fenangling I can see how those rats can become pain engines while turning the others into cool grotesques. Thanks anons.
>>94357270>>94357438>I need troonstodes to be official so I can goon to them!>oh but their official depiction is irrelevant to my gooningWhy are you types always so obvious at speaking out of both sides of your mouth? You'd think you'd be better at it with how often your camp does it.
>>94357673But can coostoods see the punchline of the harlequins' joke with that big brain of theirs?Spoilers: it's them. The custodes are the punchline.
Thought you guys might like my T'au Orca
>>94358090Cool. You ever use it in a game? How did it go?
>>94358072I don't think the rats are big enough to become pain engines, for big stuff like that you need the rest of the moulder unitsbut it really depends on what kind of aesthetic you wantconquest's spire elves have some weird body horror too here and there
>>94358096I only just finished it today so haven't had the chance. I understand it to be one of the worst units in the game though. It's basically useless. But also very cool.
>>94358102QRD on statline? Too lazy to look it up right now.Can't be worse than an Obelisk in crons.
>>94358105
>>94358105It has a decent amount of wounds and OK toughness, just very little weapons. It's just a fuck ton of points for what it does. Can carry a LOT of troops though so it's kind of cool to just quickly put down half an army on an objective.The real model comes with a full rack of XV8s in the centre, which mine does not have, unfortunately. Lore wise it carries 6 XV8s, 8 drones, 40 troops.
>>94358102>>94358090It's a shame gray is a maligned color thanks to greytides, because these look deliciously crisp, anon. Really love the faded hexagons on everything, did you freehand that or do you have some stencils or something?
>>94357995>They don't even have models, it's disgusting.And that, more than anything shows how femstodes are a product of spite, not even done for the money or to peddle new models. They don't make sense from a commercial or narrative standpoint. They're not organic, but the result of wanting to earn retarded online virtue points.
>>94358119They're stencils bro I'd blow my brains out freehanding that. I could have made my air caste all the blue colour you see in the stripe but wanted to mix it up a bit. I've overdone the blue+hex in my ancient Tau army.
>>94358115>>94358117Seeing it with the stats it isn't terrible and would be incredibly fun in a hyper mobile list, but yeah it's mediocre overall.
>>94358127Like all forge world it's a meme unit that you own for modelling purposes and play once and a while for fun and cinematic moments. Dropping 6 crisis and 30 troops at once would be a wild experience.
>>94358090>>94358102That looks sick as hell. My friend's into the orca and will dig this.
>>94358098>conquest's spire elves have some weird body horror too here and thereguys in question
>>94358177Important to keep in mind that conquest stuff is a larger scale. A lot of those models are bigger than they look
>>94357673It's not just SMs. They generally treat everyone who isn't the big E, the Talons and the primarchs like shit.
>You're not you when you're hungry.
>>94358090Fantastic model. Love how warm the interior looks compared to the coldness of the exterior. GW made this a model after it appeared in Dawn of War, right?On a similar note I put some work into the Orion today, liquid mask is satisfying to work with.
>>94358187>38mm scaleAt first I was thinking to myself that's not a massive increase but working it out by hand with some models it is actually a pretty massive increase, will keep in mind.
Kinda strange question but does any army have a large flex spot/ large amount of viable units to let me have fun swapping things out?
>>94358205A lot of old ork kits are VERY interchangeable.
>>94358205It depends what you mean by "viable". Most of the sisters line is viable, but only certain detachments for certain units.The entire Drukhari line is "viable" (besides Hellions) but it's a small range you basically have to run one of everything anyways and still can only play them one way (transports).CSM has a bunch of different ways you can play it with different units, but one of them is so much better than the others that it's the only real "viable" one of you are trying to be ultra competitive.So it depends on what your personal tolerance is for efficiency versus flexibility.
>>94358072>>94358098stormfiends might be pain engine size?
>>94358205>>94358208 hereI thought you meant modeling at first, my bad. That said, orks seem to have a decent variety of armies in the competitive scene too so they might still be something to look into
>>94358229Looks about right based on rough estimations from this pic and pics of Pain engines.
>>94358246You can also use minicompare. The models seem similar in size and bulk but you'd need to raise the stormfiend up on a tactical rock or levitate it in some manner to match the pain engine's height
>>94357995>>94358122The current custodes kit is pretty old iirc. I wouldn't be surprised if that kit is getting updated soon, and when it is updated it's likely it'll have some female models.I can see it probably happen in 11th, but not this edition, unless GW throws a curve ball in 2025-2026.
>>94358262>custodes in the starter set
>>94358262Custodes kits are from 2015 or so, which is pretty recent by GW standards, and they're fine except for not being taller than marines anymore.
>>94358266custodes aren't meant to be taller than primaris marines
It's really funny how many people think it's weird and out of character when the custodes, an army made exclusively out of Terra's nobility, taught that they're the big E's favorites and given the best wargear of the Imperium, act like assholes.
>>94358122Wouldn't it be funny if GW never made femstodes models and the only official mention of them ever would be in that one shitty episode?
>>94357995>They don't even have models,They just got 2 characters and considering how the custodes' bodies work it's unlikely that any of the banana girls need a different armor than the banana boys.
>>94358205Space Marines and Eldar
>>94358282Because they shouldn't be assholes.That's astartes territory, custodes are supposed to be mega philosopher scholars and diplomats on top of being super soldiers, that's their lore.And they should be the first ones to know that being a cunt and one sidedly demanding shit is a great way to brew contempt, dissatisfaction and in the end treason
>>94358193Very nice orion. The Orca came out around the same time as the FPS Firewarrior, which it featured heavily in. It's depicted in the original codex though.
>>94358300All the bare heads are male.
>>94358282You don't get it because you haven't read Custodes fluff and books. They're more like meat robots than the prideful Astartes. They don't put their ego in the way of their duty.They also allow Astartes to talk shit to them or believe they're better all the time, because they don't care about anything but getting shit done.
>built a CSM with a plasma gun when I meant to give him a plasma pistolWhoops, well is a single guy with a plasma gun alright in a 5 man chainsword squad or should I give the other guys in his squad bolters?
>>94358282>even the fanart looks like a manOh no no no goonxisters, not like this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g38grkms-KE
>>94358331>They're more like meat robots than the prideful Astartes.I've read custodes shit and they are exactly like marines most of the time.Aka prideful know-it-all nonces.
>>94358331>They don't put their ego in the way of their dutyDidn't a bunch of them get slaughtered by Black Templars because they had a big ego and tried to swing their femcocks around like they were the boss hawg?
Help me choose a warband for my CSM /tg/ because i am extremely indecisive about it.I have cultists, melee legionaries and havocs, and plan to get Terminators because they look cool, a Helbrute and one or two chaos predators, maybe even some bikes. My only limit is no raptors. The models are fine but their rules are just too gimmicky
>engines don't fit the theme>horrors look like shit>tzaangors saturate the roster >magnus has a weird ass designcan we agree thousand sons are the worst range in the game at the moment?
>>94358388Word Bearers sound perfect for ‘em.
>>94358389Pretty sure World Eaters are just as bad if not worse. Votann is pretty close too. And maybe Dark Eldar because of all the resin.
>>94358389>engines don't fit the themeWhy not? It's warpsmiths shoving daemons into a singular form, it's basically giving them the Rubric Marine treatment and I could see some TSons being into doing that solely out of spite to Tzeentach.
>>94358401>And maybe Dark EldarYou're dumbThere're only 3 less important resin units and 1 character left in dark eldar, if that's enough to make one of the most cutting edge redesigns in the history of warhammer a bad range then fuck your standards
>>94358388Word Bearers or <Your Dudes>Making up your own minor warband is pretty fun
>>94358403>out of spite to Tzeentchthey worship tzeentch
>>94358407>>94358401Dark Eldar 5E reboot is still the best single range update in the history of the franchise and I won't listen to it be slandered.
>>94358412Tzeench is also the reason so many of them got dusted. /yourtsons/ could totally hate the guy and it'd make sense. And even if they still like tzeench, tricking a daemon to get trapped in the engine is still very tzeenchian.
>>94358397>>94358408I was considering red corsairs or black legion but hadn't thought about Word Bearers, i'll think about it>Making up your own minor warband is pretty funtrue but i know myself and will spend literal months thinking of a color scheme only to get tired of it after the third model
>>94358401>World Eaters are just as bad if not worse.nah, demon engines actually look the part in there, their cultist unit is unobtrusive, angron has a safe and working design and demons look good.
>>94358389I know dusting the TSons is their central part as army fluff, but I think it has more over all long term damage to them as an army.Since it heavily hampers imaginative stuff.Since GW's only options are either mindless automaton dustbin robots, or sorcerers.Only unit that I think would fit and be unique would be taking the rubric and then making something like pic related with it.Like it is multiple rubric marines who have become mixed together, so they make up a giant rubric golem.Maybe the fluff could be that since rubric inevitably get damaged in battle and due to how chaotic it can be on the battlefield maybe an entire squad of rubrics get "killed" so their dust everywhere and mixed that when the Tson sorcerer goes to resurrect the marines it just forms them into a giant ethereal golem that is made up of all the rubrics' dust and their armors and weapons.
>>94358201I've seen them in person, they're like damn near twice the size of warhammer models. Closer to the old inquisitor models gw did in the 00s in 40mm scaleNot saying they won't work, just make sure you see em in a live video or in person before you buy
>>94358418>/yourtsons/your dudes could also be a space marines chapter made from iron warriors geneseed that went renegade but are still totally cool and not servants of chaosdoesn't make it any less gay and out of character
>>94358433>bloodletters>goodbloodletters never looked good, anon
>>94358420Word Bearers a best I says, nice and simple red and silver and being all about the original CSM lorewise and being “Yeah I know I’m evil, that’s why I’m a Chaos Soace Marine.”
>>94358444One of the main tsons characters is trying to undo their deal with Tzeench, how is it out of character to try and fuck with his minions? Hell, how is it out of character for ANY tzeenchian marine to fuck with daemons and be a tricky, manipulative bastard? It's bog standard tzeenchism to have an adversarial, rules-lawyery relationship with your god, akin to that of jews and YHWH
>>94358349>should I give the other guys in his squad boltersyeah if you don't ever want to kill anything lmao
>>94358321>custodes are supposed to be mega philosopher scholars and diplomats on top of being super soldiersAccording to Valerian, a CUSTODES.
>>94358389
>>94358444>your dudes could also be a space marines chapter made from iron warriors geneseed that went renegade but are still totally coolThat is possible though, especially with IW.Pert hated his legion and most his sons returned the same sentiment, so IW ironically enough are likely to have gone renegade and not meddle with chaos purely because they hate their own primarch and any legionares that would stay loyal to him.This is also why IW would be the most common legion where loyalist chapters made from traitor stock would come from, but who hide their own real identity for the shame it brings.
>>94358367I thought the custodes were specifically defined by interactions like the marine and custodes trying to calm some kid down and the marine is telling the kid that anyone can become a mighty warrior of justice to fight for their parents while the custodes is like fuck you bitch my parents died a hundred years ago my entire existence is just about the emperor.Like the marines are supposed to be weird mutant supermen, but the custodes are completely aloof and inhuman, more similar to the emperor in that they cannot understand mortals at all and don't care to.
>>94358494>I thought the custodes were specifically defined by interactions like the marine and custodes trying to calm some kid down and the marine is telling the kid that anyone can become a mighty warrior of justice to fight for their parents while the custodes is like fuck you bitch my parents died a hundred years ago my entire existence is just about the emperorBoth marines and custodes do still have different personalities.The thing you talk about is specifically an interaction between a custodian, a blood angel and a small boy.Many marines, even blood angels, are also dicks (flesh tearers), but it depends on the chapter.Sometimes custodes can be nicer but it depends on if they are in the mood or have the patience to be nice, just like with marines.
>>94358478>Pert hated his legion and most his sons returned the same sentimentthis is not true. Pert flipflopped between blaming them for his own failures but felt personally attacked when others talked shit about his marines. The IW still tried to appease him at all times. You may find similar IRL abusive relationships
Should I give this dude I’m building the CSM power axe or power maul? I really like how they both look but it’s a bit hard to choose which to go with.
