>>94358658>"The Blood Ravens have stood steadfast with the Imperium for thousands of years. We will not tolerate being spoken to in such a manner. I have sixty warriors to your five. Five ships to your one. And you are on the wrong side of the Tear. You never did say how you crossed it."
>Yeah Legends are fine bro
>>94358658>What fix does your faction needthe return of wargear to limit the silly number of datasheetsA generic chapter master so you're not gimped by not-using calgar
>>94358658>TQNeeds more models.
>>94358702>A generic chapter masterIt boggles the mind that they haven shat out a couple 40+ euro kits to make a single blinged out chapter master either in normal or terminator armour.
>>94358687>INFANTRYgot 'em
>>94358687What's the problem?
>>94358714Don't forget Gravis Chapter Master, Phobos Chapter Master and Omnis chapter master
>>94358661Make it yourself, daydreaming failure.
>>94358667>TQTotal primaris death and a trim down of the unit range
Can anyone explain to me why everyone goes for the Nurgle Soul Grinder rather than a Tzeentch one? Is the indirect fire S7 AP1 weapon really that much better than a D3 lascannon shot?
>>94358702>>94358714You have dozens of unique primaris lieutenants, just glue three together and call it a chapter master.
>>94358719Whats the problem with it being able to carry 3 Riptides?>>94358717Infantry or Battlesuits
>>94358714just kitbash oneYou're not a hobbylet.... right?
>>94358658>What fix does your faction need?Wings.
>>94358765There's no generic Chapter Master datasheet.
>>94358770Just steal some from the real blood angels
>>94358658>thread question:>What fix does your faction need?Its not a big deal, but a midline battle tank for orks would be nice, like a looted russ or predator
>>94358742I don't think that enough people use soul grinders for there to be any real consensus on the choice. I use the Slaanesh variant.
It doesn't say or. It means stealth suits. Please check yourself back into the asylum. Get the help you desperately need.
>>94358658>What fix does your faction need?More squigs
>>94358797Those with guns and chainswords would probably look pretty cool.
>>94358797Nice St Celestine proxy, bro
>>94358805You're right it doesn't say "or" it says "also".You can have up to 48 sandwiches. You can also have up to 6 coffees. The coffees don't need to be sandwiches.
>>94358742wish I had bought that model before it went OOP
>>94358658>What fix does your faction need?It would be nice to have some differentiation between the major Sororitas Orders. Doesn't need to be anything crazy, but would be nice.
>>94358805Stealth Suits with 8 wounds? Why are you having a meltie that GW writes lazy rules
It doesn't say or. It doesn't have INFANTRY does not fulfill criteria. It's called future proofing, in case a new unit with both those 2 keywords gets created. For Pavil's sake, check yourself back in.
>>94358687>This model cannot transport KROOT or VESPID STINGWINGS models.Not very progressive of you, Taubros.
>>94358755>Whats the problem with it being able to carry 3 Riptides?Stormraven is perfectly legal and can carry a Redemptor Dreadnought; for a brief period you had DA ironstorm lists with Stormravens dropping them on objectives... and it was ok I guess? I think you're overestimating the usefulness of having 600 points worth of models inside a transport, where they can't do anything. With the orca being nearly 300 points, that's nearly half of your army in one spot. A good opponent will be able to play around it to either score objectives or pulverize the other half of your army. It's like the people who start half their armies in deep strike and then wonder why they don't have any VP on turn 3.
>>94358837Kroot have to sit at the back of the bus
>>94358797They finally really have something here. This is what the angelic beings should look like.
>>94358745>>94358765The lack of any kind of datasheet for one makes the will to make one go to zero.If I make one I want to be able to use it, and the only way for it is GW releasing an overpriced box for it so it gets rules
>>94358851>NOOO I CAN'T JUST MAKE SOMETHING I WANT UNLESS GW LETS ME!!!!!!!!
is the dark angels box worth it?
>>94358832You keep bringing it up and you're wrong, and now you're having another meltie. Take your medicine, it will help your brain.
>>94358851Just use Calgar's datasheet. ezpz.
>>94358818Blood Angels ARE pretty girly, lil bro.
>>94358658>What fix does your faction need?GW is going to release a gaggle of ratlings. I plan on buying 2 of the KT squads. I already own 20. I own the 2 BS ratling characters. That diorama kit may or may not get rules. I want ratlings that are worth taking. I want ratlings that don't cost 12 freakin' points per model.
>>94358745>You have dozens of unique primaris lieutenantsPretty much all of those are limited edition shit that GW don't sell at all.There's currently 6 that they sell.SW Lt. but he is stuck in a 100£ SW patrol box.The BT castellan.The new multipart Lt.A lieutenant with sword and pistol (redundant because the multipart Lt. Exists at the same price and has the same options in the kit)Phobos Lt. (redundant kind of)And bladeguard Lt. with stormshield who was formerly a limited edition thing (also redundant since GW could've just added a storm shield option into multipart kit)I think GW should remove the phobos one, the Bguard one and the generic "Lt. With sword and pistol) kits, because they are redundant.
>2 unique posters
>>94358886Making new SM model probably cost GW nothing, they just need to modify their existing STLThat's why the new Sanguinary Guard are so low effort, the cost for making a new kit are so low as dictate by management
>>94358867I accept your concession>>94358845I didn't say it was good, its just retarded.
>>94358909they also know that marinepiggies will eat up whatever slop they shit out
>>94358658>TQDG:>A codex so that there are alternative builds + Blightlords / Poxwalkers to have their datasheet revamped entirelyTau:>Guiding/Spotting is mechanically awkward, I prefer previous iterations. I'd also prefer if the Riptide was a 250pt+ model and the gun wasn't S8GSC:>Cult Ambush not to be LETS GO GAMBLING
>>94358886>SW Lt. but he is stuck in a 100£ SW patrol box.You have to buy space wolves to get the space wolves guy?! Oh no!!
this is the first fan depiction of krorks that doesn't make ne want to throw upmaybe he played it a bit too safe, but they still have to be recognisable enough for someone 60millions years later to see it and go "yep, that's a big ork"
>>94358913If this was true then shit like inceptors, suppressors, phobos and desolators would see more use. But they don't because they look like shit.It's also the reason why GW never has made an independent kit for things like suppressors, and why GW tries at every opportunity to shove them into value boxes with other units.
>>94358941I thought that was some shitty IW fan art at first desu
Locking +1CP per turn to Epic heroes was a MISTAKE
>>94358942Inceptors are used but that's just because 3inch deep strike is broken. The Phobos shit has the misfortune of being both bad and ugly.
>>94358945there's sameface and there's sametech, these are catachans, but at a first glance they also look like his orks
>>94358803Every competitive demon list runs a Nurgle Soul Grinder these days
>>94358940Anon, I'm not wasting 100£ for crap like a invictor, 10 intercessors and 5 reivers and 2 mediocre upgrade kits, when I only want 1 model (the SW Lt.) from that box.
>>94358941Yeah, I don't actually hate this even if it still gets shit wrong, like gretchin just being bigger instead of being the Brainboyz of yore. It also reminds me of a schizo thought I had a while back.War in Heaven Blood Axes would have modeled themselves off of Necrons and dressed up in funny headdresses and cloaksBlood Axes themselves were developed by the Old Ones specifically so that orks would always have an inborn desire to reverse engineer the tech and tactics of the predominant enemy race of any era so that the old ones are never fully caught off guard again
>>94358957It isn't
>>94358962They also look sort of like tau with all the rounded rectangle tech.
>>94358961>Inceptors are used but that's just because 3inch deep strike is brokenAnything with 3 inch deep strike would see use.Also lets be honest here, if a unit only sees use because it has busted rules for WAACfags to abuse, then it is not good.It just tells you that only people who buy that stuff are people who have no care or interest when it comes to aesthetics.
>>94358968I don't think orks would have had the same klan divisions that they developed into 40k (especially how they now retconned those into being shit they developed in response to the great crusade) but I do absolutely agree that WIH krorks should have had a heavy handed element of repurposing the opponent's tech against them in much the same way orks nowadays are "themed" after human scrap first and foremost since humans are the main galactic power
Werent they going to announce another wave of battleboxes today?What happened
>>94358990wait a little
>>94358993Lately they are being very bad with the article uploads. They are always late as fuck
>>94359009Yeah, it's wild how they can't just stick to a regular upload time.It's not that difficult.
>>94358813Wild they still haven't tried to do squig herds in 40k again. They have the models. Just slap that shit in.
>>94358687Legends are fine bro, the problem is the other thing.
>>94358909>That's why the new Sanguinary Guard are so low effort, the cost for making a new kit are so low as dictate by managementPossible, they look so much like AoS stormcast that I can't shake the feeling they're just reworked stormcast models. That would explain why they have so few notable details on their armor or wings. Compare picrel to >>94358770. The old models were busy with iconography, winged motifs all over, scrollwork, and even jewelry.
>>943589681. It's contentious as to whether Brainboyz refers to the master species of the Old Ones, as their disappearance from the galaxy roughly correlates to the fabled rise of the Orks over the Brainboyz, or a lost race of greenskins which corralled the Ork race in their height.2. It was Snotlings which were alluded to be possibly the degenerated remnant of Brainboyz, not gretchin.>>94358984They definitely would, it's hard coded into them and fits into the concept as a permanently war-ready species because they are grouped by various specialties for carrying wars out.
>>94359009They're always 6pm UK time on a Sunday.
>>94359027More like a sculptor just took some generic intercessors and then lazily sculpted some mediocre muscle detail.Just looking at these I can tell that they were made by the same dude who sculpted the new Coteaz model.
>>94359036I thought snotlings and gretchin were just the same thing? Kinda like how you can say "dog" or "hound".
>>94359038New Coteaz is soul incarnate
>>94359043sometimes they're catalogued as different as subspecies of greenskins
>>94359048>New Coteaz is soul incarnate(you)
>>94357195Got a leviathan captain for cheap, cut his hands off and replaced them with the normal primaris techmarine hands, shaved the wrist gadget off the left arm to stick on his, chopped up the pauldron to steal an emblem for his pauldron which I just sloppily drilled into and filled with sprue goo to close gaps, got this flexible cog trim from zinge after trying and failing to make my own from plasticard and greenstuff Not sure where the dickflap came from, found it in my bits bag after giving up on making a plasticard onetorso icon comes from a kataphron backpack, same with the tube on the back of the terminator cowl that the mechadendrites and storm bolter are mounted tootubing is flexible 14 gauge coiled wire, this specifically: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0987GY8WFantenna is from the infiltrator kit I think, head is just from the normal terminator boxdefinitely a lot of things that could be done more efficiently than I did but this was my first foray into more in-depth kitbashing beyond some hand and head swaps for my terminator captain
>>94359027IMO the new SG was clearly designed for 8th but shelved until now. They being stupid copies of old Stromcasts cannot be random.Or Jes Goodwin has become senile, that too
>>94359049Aah.
>>94359036>It was Snotlings which were alluded to be possibly the degenerated remnant of Brainboyz, not gretchin.Right, right. I always mentally lump em together when I really shouldn't.I also really like this take on krorks as noble brute shedding tears over what has been lost.
>tfw impossible to kitbash an interesting SoB unit
Is omnis armour soft-retconned
>>94359068nostop asking
>>94359062Forgot the pic
>>94359057Iirc is the creative lead nowadays or something, at best I think he probably just draws concept sketches for the units and then some other dude/s then sculpt the models themselves.But it is true, someone at GW got lazy and/or fucked up at their job at somewhere in the production line.I know people joke about GW making "sanguine knights", ie. actually faithfully updated SG with wings and nice ornamentation, but I would take that over the updated "Sanguinary Guard" we got.
>>94359082The Krork have fallen, trillions must die.
>>94359043>>94359049They're *always* catalogued as different subspecies. While gretchin have a modicum of low cunning and vicious intelligence, and are typically half the height of the average human, snotlings are consistently characterized as viciously *stupid*, squabbling like tantruming toddlers over useless items like an interesting shaped piece of bone or rock, barely capable of completing or even remembering assigned tasks. They are also generally not much taller than a foot and a half, outside of fungus and the smallest of squig species they are utterly at the bottom of the entire Ork ecosystem.>>94359082>mossa thinks the krork looked like Moggs from MtGUnbased
>>94359082>giant-fetish art
>>94359066definite your idea of an interesting unit
>>94359068Technically, no. It's just that only one unit uses it (Suppressors, which IIRC never had their own kit) and that unit isn't particularly good. Their job is to shoot but they only hit on a 4+ which stings. Overall it's kind of a schizo unit design since it simultaneously wants to be mobile (12" move, Fly) but is burdened with BS 4+ and Heavy weapons.
>>94358658>What fix does your faction need?More Loyalist, less Red Legion.
>>94359128Whatever happened to the poster who was kitbashing the WH+ vindicare perch with an imperial knight to make an SoB aligned knight?I don't remember seeing it finished and painted.
>>94358941>single-handedly destroyed many White Scars, a Baneblade, a Titan, and a StompaThis is a Krork.
>>94359142This one?
>>94359128the way the sisters are assembled really limits the ability to be creative with them unless you basically just replace their entire body with another faction's
I’m building my first dudes
>>94359062>>94359082I don't.it devalues modern orks and squanders the much more interesting idea that the krorks purposefully chose to cast down their leader caste even if it meant losing some of their brains and brawns in the process.
>>94359057>Or Jes Goodwin has become senile, that tooHe's not senile, it's simply that that all of his time has been taken up with making sure that the upcoming Warp Spider refresh is perfect so he's had to delegate everything else to the interns.
>>94359174Dont greypost
>>94359174What legion/warband?Also clean some of those mold lines up, my guy.
>>94359174Good shit anon. I wish bolters were actually worth a damn but the legionaires kit is nice to build at least
How to make him not job?
>Got called a closet tranny because I kept buying female beauty productsIT'S NOT MY FAULT THE NAIL POLISH REMOVER PADS ARE THE BEST WAY TO FIX BAD PAINTJOBS
>>94359187Have one kill somebody that matters.
>>94359179>the much more interesting idea>proceeds to rattle off some basic bitch bullshit
>>94359187One. If problem with the Avatar of Khaine, the Swarmlord and big Daemons like Princes and Greater Daemons is they are disposable, replaceable or respawn. Thus killing named characters or theoretically important figures has no permanent effect. A comparable example are mecha shows with escape pods. Writers more easily write>X was BTFO and their mech explodeswhile the characters themselves survive. So long as there's no limit on how many shards of Khaine there are to make Avatars, he can job forevermore.
Nids are cool. That is all.
>>94359182yeah okay>>94359183yeah they’re a bit hard to get at with some of them I get thinking I might mess up cleaning it and snip off a bit on accident with my knife and others I just forgot I need to go over them again more later and I’ll make them Word Bearers I read their trilogy and liked it good. >>94359184Me too looking at the rules the bolters seem awful but they look cool at least so I thought I had to build at least a couple.
>>94359187he jobbed, so he will job forever, it's too late for thatthe only way out is making a new totally true actual avatar of khaine while relegating all other shards as failed half formed desperate attempts to summon himand the new shiny avatar will have a new proper name, not be resummonable or capable of respanwing, it will instead have an agency and wander the webwaymaybe say the version without the helmet is him, since it's probably the least popular, so there's a reason to make one with that head and paint it atypically too

My experiment with handbrushing on Vallejo primer (which is made for airbrushes) seems to have gone well.Just like putting on a base coat, it's all about even coverage and getting 100% of the exposed model surface.The trickiest bit seems to be that it doesn't do well when thinned with water; the primer gets very watery and blotchy if you try to use it with a saturated brush. It'll run off of stuff.
Who gets their teeth kicked in more often: Imperial Fists or Blood Angels? Seems like both have their entire chapters (or successor chapters) wiped out on a semi-regular basis.
>>94359255funny you mention that considering how the successor of the blood angels that gets kicked the most is the one painted yellow, while the successor of the fists that get kicked the most is the one who's main feature is crimson
>>94359255The Fists got wiped out to a man once.That never happened to the Blood Angels even in the worst of times.
>>94359187>Perfect the art of war to become an exarch>Sacrifice your life to summon Khaine from the Warp>He gets one-shotted and his death shatters the morale of your entire battle force.
>>94359265>That never happened to the Blood Angels even in the worst of time996.M40 Blood Angels deploy their entire chapter (1000 marines) to the Sin of Damnation Space Hulk. 51 survive.
>>94359229No helmer + Axe is the superior loadoutSorry not sorry
>>94359174Coolio. Chaos is best boys.
>>94359277the opinion of a deldar fan who can't even field the unit is irrelevant
>>94359274Still not to a man.
>>94358658>What fix does your faction need?More waves of modelsEven more loreMore media in general
>>94359274
>>94359274How does a chapter even fuck up that badly? I mean since chapters are usually so spread out, it takes genuine effort to get everyone together for something like this.
>>94359274during the war of the beast the Imperial Fists chapter got completely wiped out and had to be rebuilt by taking marines from its successor chapters
>>94359283It's just a good look, yknow. I think its more characterful.
>>94359229Like Tirion?
>>94359290I do like this art piece, I like how he just looks like an average joe at his work place.Would be fun to see official art of some mundane stuff in 40k, like that one Darktide trailer where the 2 vets were playing cards at a table while an ogryn was next to them sharpening his knife.
>>94359274IT STARTS WITH ONEONE HULK, I DON'T KNOW WHY
>>94359243Has the mechanicus ever made attempts at Dyson spheres? Or is it a necron/DAoT thing exclusively?
>>94359311Space Hulks are incredibly fucking dangerous. They can be filled with hostile xenos, forgotten war machines from the DAoT, daemons, extreme radiation, and anomalies that defy explaination.
>>94359290Sussy Amogus
>>94359066You can go ham with penitent engine and vehicle temple design.
>>94359311one thing to consider is that genestealers were most probably way less known at the timethat's almost 7 centuries before the purging of the moons of ymgarl, or the first official discovery of genestealer cults or the first official contact with the hive fleets
>>94359336probably, but considering how it's not standard practice that's definitely not something they can do nowadays
>>94359182Wait what? Did the goalpost get moved yet again? I can get behind not wanting boxposting but I don't see anything wrong with posting assembled models since they're technically wips
>>94359232Not British, Canadian, but hey, eh.
>>94359274This has always been funny to me. At least in the War of the Beast, Imperial Fists were defending Terra against the worst Ork assault of all time. Blood Angels nearly got wiped out on an exploratory mission. Dante would be one of the only Blood Angels in the current era who was there for that. Mephiston is the playable Librarian in Space Hulk, but that's almost 600 years later. How could you possibly follow Dante into battle knowing what happened on the Sin of Damnation?
>>94359274either the blood angels have only 51 terminator armours left, they didn't deploy all the terminator armours they had, or they needed to reassault the same hellhole to recover the equipment
>>94358658Is there anyway to run Deldar as relatively elite?
>>94359325Like the Ork towns and Imperial Munitorium showing people eating?
>>94359232I'm still a bit curious as to what detachment this guy was running. From what SL guy said it sounded like he didn't really know what to do against an army with so much shooting.
>>94359369dante wasn't chapter master, a guy called sangallo was and he died in the tragedy, dante was the successor maybe he became chapter master specifically because he was one of the few who led a group of survivors
>>94359373What do you mean by elite?
>>94359385He actually became Chapter Master because he was the only captain and ranking officer alive after the space hulk debacle. How the chapter didn't go extinct after that is literally GW asspull
>>94359369>At least in the War of the Beast, Imperial Fists were defending Terra against the worst Ork assault of all time.don't be ridiculous, the majority of imperial fists got fucked offscreen by an ork attack moon while they were preoccupied with some random bugs.
>>94359377Ye something like that.Or say an underhiver in his gang's hideout cleaning his gun.Or ork yoofs peeking on a mek in his workshop while he works on a new invention.
>>94359396>>94359385lexicanum says otherwise Kadeus was a former Chapter Master of the Blood Angels[2]. As a Captain he took part in Chapter Master Sangallo's disastrous Space Hulk cleansing operation, which became known in the Chapter's history as the Secoris Tragedy. Sangallo and a majority of the Blood Angels Chapter were killed beneath the claws of thousands of Genestealers, leaving only fifty Battle Brothers, led by Kadeus and Captain Dante, to escape the battle. In the wake of Sangallo's death and his Chapter's decimation, Kadeus would go on to become Chapter Master and led his Chapter from the brink of extinction[3]. During his time as Chapter Master Kadeus wielded the blade Challenger, a relic of the Chapter, and battled the Tzeentch Daemon Prince Sethselameth; after it emerged on the Battle Barge Bloodcaller. He banished the daemon and a mural of their battle was created on the ship.[1]Kadeus would later die in the great audience chamber (Grand Annex[3]) of the Blood Angels Fortress-Monastery on Baal. Before his death Kadeus would name Dante as his successor[2] and give him the Axe Mortalis.[3]3: Dante: Lord of the Host (Short Story)
Can successor chapters have successor chapters?
>>94359369>How could you possibly follow Dante into battle knowing what happened on the Sin of Damnation?Even if he was in charge at the time, you assume that him surviving one of the Chapter's darkest days will make him less willing to throw good men after lost causes.>>94359396The Geneseed vaults of Mars provide.
>>94359406In practice, probably. On paper, no. They always refer back to the progenitor chapter being one of the First Founding.
>>94359325Yeah, I like the more mundane tidbits as well. I liked the new ratling models because they kinda delve into that a bit. Rogue traders also great, and darktide gave a lot of imagery of the innards of a hive city.
>>94359393Relatively few bodies, not with 50+ models. And not completely useless on the table.Looking at the range and the current rules, probably not, unless in the codex they pain engines can be battleline (doubtful). I'm looking for an elite/low model count army that's not Custodes or Deathguard
>>94359425Post the toilet paper guy
>>94359406yes. Tiger Claws were successors of the astral claws. Marines Earrant also are descendants of the Eagle Warriors. Black Templars also (allegedly) created a successor chapters but i forgot the name
>>94359406as far as I understand how the process works, the tithe of geneseed, from both a first founding chapter and a successor chapter gets grouped up somewhere by the lords of terra and it's them who take the decision to fund a new chapter from the stocks of geneseed they have, and they just pick it from the sperm bank of the [(first founding chap)+successors] instead of specifically from one chapter or successor, so they always end up being a successor of the supergroup of blood angels, rather than a successor of something specificor maybe they can be a successor of a successor but they try to scrub these kinds of ties to avoid further layers of allegiancesalthough sometimes existing marines of a chapter or successor chapter can be kind of "founding members" of a brand new chapter, so a known genealogy might be possibleon a similar note I still find it very weird that there isn't a more personal kind of ancestor worship in a chapter:each and every marine is a revered hero in his own way and a new aspirant will often have to be raised with the geneseed extracted from a particular marine, either dead (adding a certain level of responsibility in the aspirant to fill the shoes of the dead hero) or alive (making the new aspirant probably look up the geneseed donor as a new father figure in addition to the primarch)but I think noone ever explored these kinds of relations as far as I know
>>94359425Almost all the 40k art is impossibly large buildings, impossibly huge battles on flat terrain, or isolated individual units in combat. But the whole intrigue of 40k is that it's so big and so varied that basically any combination of stuff can exist within it. You can unironically have medieval knights with laser guns riding t-rexs and it makes sense. Also, give me more hive city living. Show me daily life in the middle of the city, not in the depths and not in the tallest spires.
>>94359383He was running the one with -1 to hit and -1 AP outside of 18". I can't remember what it's called, I don't know space marines.And it was pretty effective at neutering my shooting - he was stacking armor of contempt on it for -1 to hit, -2ap, so shooting his big units and crusader was super inefficient.He didn't play for primaries that hard, though, and played very cagey with some big expensive units that didn't commit fast enough to get their damage in.

>its a loreshitter threadOk fellas cya in a bit
>>94359274>>94359369>>94359405That'd be a fun army to make, 51 BA dudes
94359474good riddance you whiny baby
>>94359474We're not currently engaged in a shitflinging contest over canonicty or a purity spiral, anon, calm down.
>>94359406Yes, but they will often not refer to their parent chapter as their progenitor and defer to parent legion
>>94359483What do you do when you have 50 marines? Presumably you ask your successors to refill your ranks and then indoctrinate them into your cult? I don't imagine you have any fighting capability for a while.
>>94359474Ok retard.
>>94358658>TQInquisitorial Stormtroopers. Gun-Cutters. (pic related)New models for Karamazov, Eisenhorn, Crowl, and Hector Rex.
>>94359373Make them half Chimer.
>>94359373>>94359426Max out on pain engines, since they are 50-80 points each and you can bring 12.Max out of Voidraven Bombers since they are 215 points each.Take Scourges at 24 points a model. Take Grotesques at 27 points a model.Bring a Tantalus and load it with all your expensive characters (Archon+Court, Lelith, Drazhar, Rakarth).
>>94359494probably break the piggyspermbank, go into recruitment mode and stay inactive for a few decades
>>94359494I'd say you're right, maybe they have some reserve of geneseed, plus there's new recruits being trainedMaybe they didn't send the scouts in the hulk eitherWould have to stand back for a while that's for sure, couple centuries maybeOr not, BA wouldn't surprise me as those who go all in even when shit looks fucked, so they might have carried on best they could and more
>>94359494hope that at least one apothecary and one chaplain have survived because otherwise your chapter is fucked beyond salvation if there is no-one left to salvage the chapter's rites and practices
>>94358658>What fix does your faction need?They need all their damn resin replaced and actual models for all the units they have lost.Mechanically they are just too fragile and have no real way to hold primary without getting wiped off the board before next turn. They need some kind of durable anvil unit or Grotesques need to be cheap enough that you can afford to throw away 6 to hold a point for a turn.
>>94359510That would be a cool idea for a space marine chapter or a BL story. Unknown founding. Got mostly wiped out. Just 30-50 guys none of them older than 100 years with no leadership among them but control of 10,000 serfs a battle barge and a bunch of line ships figuring out what to do where to go and what they are doing all of this for.
>>94359518If you get to that point the chapter would generally just be dissolved and reintegrated into its parent chapter.Being one of the original legions BA would just get reformed by taking marines from their successors like the IF did
>>94359525>If you get to that point the chapter would generally just be dissolved and reintegrated into its parent chapter.For this scenario, thats where the unknown founding comes in. Like if this happened to Blood Ravens, they probably wouldn't know where to go.

>lost auction for RT Land Raider>won metal 2E tac squadI guess it's something. I'll get you some day, land raider. But I'm not paying 300 bucks for you. Especially with missing sponsons.
>>94359406Yes and no.We have in the fluff in the Tiger Claws who were the successor chapter of the Astral Claws.Sometimes new chapters are founded by taking an already existing chapter say Fulminators and then telling them to take some marines and new recruits and then making them form another chapter.And with this one the chapter would be called an Ultramarines successor since it is UM geneseed, but they'd also be specifically descended from the Fulminators.But what I know the whole procedure for the foundings isn't really 100% standardized.You can largely do whatever kind of.What I did for my chapter is that they are Salamanders successors but they specifically descend from the Black Dragons using their genestock, and I did that because they are my favorite and I like the mutation they have.
>preorders incomingI just hope they don't fuck us on the price.

So is this retard that they're never going to do anything with as strong as a Primarch or what?
>>94359659Actually fairly likely at this point, although it would probably lose 40k rules and just be 30k
>>94359676I want the original for my collection and my autism wont allow me to get a proteus and call it a day. I only need the land raider, a vindicator and a predator and my 2E marine collection will be complete.

Also isn't there that other thunderhawk looking one but bigger and with 2 tail fins? I think it was named stormhawk or stormtalon or something along those lines.
>>94359736>fake nostalgiaI just wanna have the army I couldn't have as a kid.
>>94359751>couldn't have>didn't haveSo, fake nostalgia. Enjoy throwing away money
>>94359643There's some very accurate oldhammer 3d prints available. A lot cheaper unless you really want a legit one. Feel your pain tho been looking for a 2nd ed battlewagon for ages. The Horus heresy landraider is a cool update to the old design too
>>94359425We stay winning, IGBros
>>94359759I didn't have the entire range as a kid but I wanted to. Is it really fake then?
>>94359552Yes. He got a first turn charge in with some stuff, but it broke against some sentinels and chimeras without doing too much crippling damage. The counter attack punished him hard for it, since all those chimeras are full of plasmaguns.
>>94359711Sanguinor isn't even close to as strong as a primarch.
>TQFix the game itself before any factions are fixed. No longer a board game, and certainly no longer a wargame, 40k has become an expensive, physical card game that has gone too far and paradoxically not far enough with its "Simplified, Not Simple" mentality. Returning it to a wargame, an abstracted simulation of battles, would fix nearly everything about it because it would open up more faction identity, ability, and fun. The homogeneous bullshit that 40k (and factions) are now seems like an insult to the intelligence of its players. Inb4 older editions, HH, or "play Crusade!!!" that someone will inevitably say. Older editions are great, and HH (2.0) is decent, but not everyone wants to play them (or should) so it can be difficult to get games, let alone a campaign, going. Crusade is just dogshit because it's tied to the banality of current 40k, which is again dogshit.
>>94359711He's about the level of a living saint, that's it.
I have really mixed feelings about the upcoming Imperial Knights bundle. On the one hand GW scammed us with removing weapon sprues and limiting building options by like 80%. On the other hand I missed all previous Knights bundles and it still feels like a decent deal for starting a Chaos Knights army. I want to stick with 1000-1500pts games anyway so it's a playable out-of-the-box army and I can kitbash most missing gear with Helbrute leftover bits.
>>94359474>loreIt's "fluff." I say that to all the faggot """"""""lore""""""""""""" guzzlers in the thread.
>>94359639It does bother me a lot that we can't use stuff like that for literally zero reason. We can share the boring ass rhino and predator but god forbid we be able to take anything that would spice up the roster even a little bit
>>94359722Do we?
>>94359836It's a terrible deal for chaos knights it doesn't have any of the chaos kits in it and doesn't even have good options for loyalist knights
>>94359857post models with a timestamp, fakegrog
>>94359857Fluff is just some obscure, uncommonly used term that insecure retards like you latched onto to pretend that you're a better, more "real" fan than everyone else
>>94359876>>94359884Make sure your moms post your obituaries after you splatter your brains against your Black Library shelves, faggots.
>>94359875> it doesn't have any of the chaos kitsWhy would you need Chaos kits to build a Chaos army? Chaos was always about proxying, kitbashing and converting. I don't need a volkite combustor™ when Russ's plasma cannon painted brass looks exactly the same.
>>94359884>Fluff is just some obscure, uncommonly used termit really isn't
>>94358968>>94359036The 40K Ultimate Guide says that the major Ork Clans and their affinities for certain modes of warfare were gene-programmed into the Orks by the Old Ones.So we have a marine legion situation here minus the redundancy (ie: Iron Warriors and Imperial Fists roughly being the same in their specializing).
>>94359857Lore is fluff and fluff is lore
>>94359836unless the cost of the bundle gives you, essentially, a free knight, it's a scam for imperial playersI don't even know why you would want it as a chaos player, huntsmen and executioners are your worst armigers and are arguably worse than their loyalist counterparts, you have access to karnivores and brigands which hit on 2s and have missiles for chaffthe only value this box has for you is if you plan on using the models as basing bits to style on your mirror match
>>94359674Not really, all of it is used
>>94359894You don't NEED the specific chaos kits, but that doesn't make the box magically good for them. It's a bad box in general and nothing about it lends itself to being good for chaos knights, so if it doesn't even have their kits AND isn't versatile on the tabletop why even bother with it
>>94359884>Fluff is just some obscure, uncommonly used termYou fucking what mate?
>>94359884>Fluff is just some obscure, uncommonly used term that insecure retards like you latched onto to pretend that you're a better, more "real" fanway to out yourself as a tourist lmaofluff and crunch are universal terms for board games and tabletops, even MTG has card fluff and crunch

>>94359939>>94359935No. He liked a Twitter post that explained why fluff is a pejorative that dismisses the efforts of narrative writers and presents it as inferior to the rules.Lore is much more respectful.
>>94359906>minus the redundancyI once read a theory saying that the pact big E had with the gods might have been that they agreed on giving him the power to make the primarchs but only if they could get dibs on half of them, except the emperor wouldn't know which onesmeaning that the redundancy, and treating some of them like shit might have been intentional so he could still cover some roles if one specialist were to turn on top of trying to pigeonhole half of them into chaos and have a modicum of control of the situation when shit hit the fanit's definitely some bullshit born from the poor planning and writing of the heresy, but it's a theory that for once makes sense with the faustian gambling devils we're talking about
>>94359956>fluff is a pejorative that dismissesonly if you want to play the part of the whiny victim normal people use fluff for the duality with crunch (rules)

>>94359910>you have access to karnivores and brigands which hit on 2s and have missiles for chaffWhat's stopping me from building armigers as Karnivores? Both kits come with chaintalon. Do we pretend you need exact kits to model specific units now?
how do you reliably kill these fags?
>>94359996With weapons.
>>94359913What would be a good box then? Are four War Dogs simply too many? Is one big Knight for a 1000pts army not enough?

>>94359995nothing stopping you, but kitbashing is an expensive side hobby to an already expensive hobbyhope you have a 3d printer or lots of spare slaughtertalons and missile boxes laying around
>>94360006If you want everything in that box exactly as the photo shows then buy it, but just know that there's no versatility to it
>>94359996Anything that can shit out anti-MEQ damage, lethal hits or mortal wounds.Take a tank and run them over, unironically.
>>94360006hear me out, what if it was the exact same box they had before with the same armigers and canis rexselling knights players a knight that can only make a paladin (the bondsman ability is good I suppose) or errant (good) but with no top mounted weapon that you need is a huge fucking scam
>>94360029You mean slaughterclaws? I have about half kilo of Chaos Spawn bits which should be useful for kitbashing organic and meaty claws.For missile boxes, I have quite a lot of spare Rhino bits. At some point I bought about 10 Rhino gear sprues for about 2EUR each with a bonus bag of Chaos bits. I won't lie by saying I have about 12kg of various 40k bits I bought from two LGSs shutting down during Corona. I managed to build a 2500pts CSM army just with a single CSM start collecting and contents of those lots.
>>94360006The box is bad because it doesn't come with alternative weapon loadouts for other knights. Knight kits are kino because they contain multiple weapons for multiple knight variations. If you magnetize them, you can switch out the loadout and get an entirely different unit.What you see on the box cover is what you get. >What would be a good box then?Same thing as the 9th chaos knight box set. Two wardogs, one big knight, and all of the extra weapons included. Maybe include some dice or a codex.

>>94360442I'm assembling Flesh Hounds and I think I'm one step away from punching someone in the heart in blind rage and despair. Easily the worst modern kit I have worked with.

>>94360494...who's the third? Vashtorr?
>>94360345I won't. The one finecast model I have sucks.Finecast was an excuse for GW to get away from casting pewter (which admittedly contained lead) for cheaper resin.
>>94360494>What’s wrong with them?Awfully placed mould lines, 100% monopose with no extra bits or interchangeable heads at least, suffers from the 'exploded kit' syndrome.

any other knight players here? what's your favorite questoris that isn't canis rexhis point nerf has me reconsidering him, because it's actually more useful to have some action monkeys

>>94360432Is the plastic injected into the molds produced in the UK?
>>94360519yeah they have Maggie Thatcher's corpse hooked up to a daemoncubala spewing out toxic resin and plastic for their manufacturing.
>>94360498I was thinking Lorgar>>94360504Ouch, that sucks. Shame too because they’re pretty cool sculpts.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.

>>94360580I think I like the skin more on your earlier model anon
>>94360662I disagree entirely and my old models makes me want to puke now. Look at those eyes, anon.
>>94360674The eyes on the older ones are rough but their skin has better contrast than your current recipe
>>94360690Yeah I can't agree with that lolGlad you like it but really enjoy my newer stuff better
>>94360580That's a pretty neat idea. I wanted to post a picture but when I put a model from a year and a half ago next to the one I finished recently there's not that much difference lol. I mean sure, it's a bit cleaner and more refined but it's not mindblowing or anything
>>94360716Post one anyway I'd like to see em
>>94360707Might just be a difference in our tastes. You definitely like super saturated colours more than I do, where I prefer desaturated colours/pastels
>>94360734That'd definitely explain it. I'm all about contrasting colors.
>tfw moving states as the christmas boxes are coming out so won't have an address to order them toshiiieeet. i wanted to start a knights army and get the sisters box as a gift, doubt they'll still be available by the time i move in

>>94360781>tattoo over her shirt>ratty tanktop instead of some sort of ceremonial bikiniThis shit is so ass.
>>94360375Give names. I may want to get some old models if they have
>>94360804>tattooretard
>>94360398Anon that's what I was gonna do.My question was, if I buy that and the christmas box, would I be able to "chaosify" the christmas box knight with the leftover bits from the abominant.
>>94360817Electoo is still considered a tattoo if you're going to be a pedantic faggot about it. Point is it's drawn as if it's on top of the shirt instead of glowing through it and it looks like shit.
>>94360792Is it realistically any worse than wasting an image slot on a post that boils down to>me don't like thing that doesn't exist
>>94360804I think there was a topless version but I can't promise that
I gotta say magos purple makes a really nice shade color for white hair.
>>94360837Magos purple really nice to work with
So what's the Cadian metaplot currently, are they getting a new planet to settle and rebuild or will they just stay fighting in the warzones they were assgined to and die out in one generation?
>>94360843we're all cadians now
>>94360843They settled a Cadia II in the funny narkman gauntlet space that will never be resolved. There's also a planet that's a metaphorical Cadia 2.0 where Hearken Boreclaimer is stuck 5ever.
>>94360723Okay. Don't ask me what I had in mind with that cross shaped "highlight".also don't ask why I still haven't finished this kit
>>94360853While I can't tell which is the new one, they both look beautiful.
>>94360867Thanks man. Guy on the right is the new one
>>94360843no one gives a shit, it's finally time for DKOK to shine
>>94360843Wasn't it some shit like Creed(woman) went to one of the habitable remnants of Cadia and found a map of a bunch of other potential fortress worlds? I guess the end goal of any given Cadian regiment is establishing their own Cadia 2.

Remember that story with a sister of battle that turned into a chaos genestealer? Didn't anything happen after that.

Tell me stupid references to your cunt.I want viking age nordic IG?With Finnic lore.Valhallans suck ass as they are basically russians.Except for that one top pic that comes up when searching them.Its basically a Finn with two trench coats.Finnish lore that I have encountered, one blood pact, chaos aligned merc, tuonoetar eldar world and fists of lagus that are basically aztecs or something with name possibly referencing finnish armour division
can we get some lore about anal sex with eldar women?robbery gibsmedat is emperor now, so I think it's appropriate subject matter

>>94361183He's roman. That means boywives.
It's weird how the generic Cadians are somehow more interesting that the Death Snore of Krieg
>>94360216>watching youtube >watching youtube warhammer Very gay. Anyway, an airbrush is a great tool and when used can reduce the time taken for basecoating alone, not to mention other steps. In combination with brush painting it's great, though I don't do every single thing with it. As an aside, the "slapchop" bullshit has been an overall negative to the hobby. That and contrast paints.
>>94361210eldar are flat as a board so it can be hard to tell the women from the men
>40k is dog shit, if it was ran by (insert niche game that has 5 players), 40k would be good
>>94360348>>94360353I'm not posting my models because it won't matter. If I did, there would be retards saying X, and like I didn't, there are retards saying Y. Posting models is not an argument, and it doesn't refute how fucking gay """""""lore"""""""""""""posters are, which is lethally faggoty. By not posting them, I show that you have absolutely nothing.
>no models melty
>>94360390>they had a lot of cool, interesting, and unique models/rules/settingsI'm really sorry to tell you this, anon, but the old FW is dead. Sometimes, the Necromunda stuff is great, but for 40k there's nothing because nothing interesting can be done with the dogshit that 40k has become. No more special tank shells or entire armies or amazing, out-of-the-way campaigns with the presentation of an in-universe history book. It's gone, and it's been gone since FW became Specialist Games Studio (and Kinrade left). I'm saddened by its loss, too. I look at 40k now and weep.
>>94361260so no models?
Is the Devilfish really an APC or IFV? What would it need to be considered one?

>>94361297It shames me that elves in all universes and intellectual property end up just being waifus for human factions. I don't know what kind of psyops the jews did to diminish Tolkein's noble and respected elf race but it is a damn shame.
first time using dirty down rust over a basecoated plague marine, i dont think ive had this much fun painting without effort for a long time.might just start collecting death guard proper because of this stuff
>>94361377ah yes, The Lord of the Ringsthe fantasy where a gigachad human *checks notes* gets to marry the hottest elf woman ever and fuck her in all her holes until he dies, and she's so butthurt (literally) she also dies
>>94360843Where ever there are Cadians, Cadia is there.
Trump said that the Brit bongs might be exempt from tariffs, could models get potentially cheaper here in the superior continent?
>>94361423>GW cutting pricesLol.Lmao.
>>94361423Thought for the day: The God Emperor protects.
>>94360843Does it even matter? "Cadian" was always more the doctrine than the people, the reason they're the official guard model is because they've imprinted their equipment, training and doctrines as the standard for fledgling regiments across the galaxy.
>>94361423>could models get potentially cheaper here
>working a double instead of painting my CSM guyspain
>>94361377>responding to yourselfSad! Very sad!
>>94361423I'm confused, why would they lower prices? If exports to the US become cheaper then they can just keep the high prices and make more money.
>>94361334Rent free lmao
>>94361423>could models get potentially cheaperGood one.
>>94361423>could models get potentially cheaper
>>94361307>>94361312>>94361377Uh oh, eldarfag meltie

>>94361548Who is the Hamada of the 40k universe?
Ive been painting the same way since I was a teenager and I have never understood or known what "slapchop" is.
>been painting models for like 4 hours>thought id finish them all tonight>havent even started doing all the highlightingAh man, fuck me.
>>94361564It's just basecoating with black, then drybrushing with white to give a sense of lighting, then applying a layer of color overtop. It's a quick way to get shading and highlights and color.
>>94360442space wolves. chipping away at a firstborn army for them from a bunch of old sprues and kits i had sitting in my closet. was planning on putting together a grey hunters squad at work today, but discovered i forgot my hobby knife at home so i can't take of mold lines or trim sprue nubs before i assemble them so now i'm just stuck with a couple models worth of loose bits in my hobby box. thinking about working on the predators i have instead, but i'm getting frustrated with them
>>94361581Sounds shit.
How do you guys not blow out your back building and painting?
>>94361588It works well with orks
>>94361590I tell my boyfriend to wait till I'm done.
>>94361423Anime and manga with Canada the United States and tariffs?: What increase in the price of anime and manga series might affect Canada if they do start making in the United States new tariffs?
>tfw want to play green tide but not very quick at moving my minisis it worth buying a few movement trays?>>94361590i just paint until i start to feel it in my back. i really strugged when i first started painting but its not too bad now, definitely helps having a somewhat comfortable chair and not leaning forwards, although at times that happens without realizing it
>>94361590I have a standing desk
>>94360843i think the official story is that surviving Cadian regiments got settlement rights for other planets and are busy pumping out more Whiteshields in the name of the Emperor. between that and the fact that Cadia has created sent out countless numbers of men and women for literal thousands of years, and its common for regiments to get stood down and used as founding populations for newly reclaimed planets, and that Cadian combat doctrine and equipment is about as 'standardized' as you can get in the Imperial Guard, there's still going to be Cadian regiments until about 20 minutes after the setting gets blown up and we get AoS'd
>>94361590I have a tumor in my brain that numbs any and all pain.
>>94361607Nah, you'll be putting them into melee which requires lots of non-regular placement, meaning you'll be taking them out of the tray a lot.Also unless you're playing blood axes your Orks shouldn't be rank-and-file.
Did they give this paint the covid vaccine? Why is corax white so clotted and weird? I've been trying to mix it for 10 minutes now.
>>94361423gw has never at any point lowered their prices for literally anything. the best bet we have is for them to accidentally make a new start collecting box that saves you more than 15% over buying each kit individually before they realize their mistake and get rid of it
>>94361573>start painting at 2pm >suddenly it's 10pmevery time
>>94361631Corax is just a garbage paint. Put some agitators inside, those might help. Seriously though, get a different offwhite
>>94361573this but it was only 4 models and I'd only finished blocking in the armor and robes
>>94361642Same. I'm happy I found something that I can get into so much I lose track of time though. A lot of people don't have that
>>94361631Because it's a shit paint.
Noob questions, painting Blood Angels and was wondering>What is a good color to highlight Baal Red?and>Is it ok to do some steps of a model (say basecoating) and then come back to finish it in the future? I imagine it is fine but didn't know if paint drying a long time might make it hard to add to it later or something.
>>94361590I separate business from pleasure.
>>94361620that makes sense, ill just move them one by one and hopefully my opponent doesnt get annoyed with itim trying to build a list atm and outside the 6x20 squads of boyz and 3 painboyz i have no idea what else to include. maybe a warboss or two, a weirdboy could be fun. a battlewagon to transport 20 boyz in sounds good too, but other than that im kinda lost
>>94361649Ive been working away at these boys. I did the skin last time, fully highlighted and everything, and today I basically did everything else. I think ill take a break and then start highlighting since its all I have left. That and the base rim. >>94361642I started at 9 pm. It just turned 1 am here.
>>94361660>>94361649Forgot the pic like a dumbass
The more I play Eldar recently the more it occurs to me how this probably sucks for my opponents.Two games across two weekends and both time I basically tabled my opponent with what feels like an average roster.
>>94361705you have access to what's probably the best tank in the entire game with a fire prism that has essentially indirect fire without any penalties AND you have the ability to turn any roll into a 6
>>94361713I don't use Fire Prisms or Night Spinners, thr toughest things I run are a Wraithlord and a Wave Serpent.
>>94361620ok what about this for a listbig mek in mega armour3 x painboy3 x warboss (one with ferocious show off)1 weirdboy (with bloodthirsty belligerence)6 x 20 boyz (each squad with 2 rokkit launchas)5 x meganobzbattlewagon (for one of the boyz squads)trukk (for mek and manz)
>>94361607Yes small 5 model trays are a godsend try and find some that don't have space between the bases
Do the Tau have any futanari species they employ as Auxiliaries?
Looking through some of my bits I'm realizing I've got most of what I need for a few terminators except the legs and power packAny leaf anons here know a good shop to look at for bits? Or am I better off finding stl files and going to a 3d print route
who else hyped for death korps release
Are combat patrols still the go to new player product
>>94361770Generally, yes but it depends on the faction.Personally I would always suggest a basic troops box first before committing to a combat patrol. You might learn a lot from your first box and it's a much lower commitment.
>>94361770For cost savings yes, but honestly I wouldn't recommend a big set like that for someone new, get something cheaper , because you also need to buy tools, paints and brushes Then you need to see if you actually like paintingIf you have someone who wants to play with you, then Combat Patrol becomes a bit better as a first purchase because theres rules to pit them against each other
>>94361659Weirdboys are great, and warbosses give you some much needed 10+STR for when your Boyz deal with higher toughness threats. Warboss+nobz in a trukk always is nice, too.>>94361728Not bad at all.
>>94361759Tistaminis can occasionally be cheap, sort by price in used and look at the cheapest worst painted stuff you can just strip
>>94361770Depends on the faction
>>94361705I'd take it as fair compensation for how badly Eldar are treated in fluff.
>>94361785I already have the tools and paint, just new to 40k.
>>94361785>>94361827As for the latter point, I've actually been struggling to find some, my local group mostly grinds out games on TTS testing shit for tournaments which I'm absolutely not interested in, I'm honestly more into the painting than the playing part.
>>94361842go on facebook and youll find the 40k groups that go to your LGSs
>>94361879that's the group I'm talking about
>>94361842>I'm honestly more into the painting than the playing partThen do just that, a lot of people in the hobby never play and just collect and paint cool plastic dudes
>>94361842>I'm honestly more into the painting than the playing part.In that case seriously whether you enjoy 40k's lore and aesthetics enough to eat the price markup from the game piece value instead of painting literally anything elseWargaming minis also usually don't make great display pieces
>>94361881keep at it, on the local discords im on often a new player will pop up who has his first 500 points, look for someone like that and eventually you'll find a few people like that you can do 2v2 1000 points or somethingYour LGS should have a warhammer night to or something?
>>94361916My LGS doesn't have a ton of space so games are usually hosted either at someone's place or at venues getting rented out for the evening
>>94361795just realised that im missing a squad of grots, and stormboyz. dunno if the latter is essential for green tide, but missing out on the potential cp from the grots could be rough
NEW THREAD>>94362016>>94362016>>94362016
i can't paint well but I like the hobby and doing little dioramaswill people complain if I have too much shit on the bases of some of my units as long as it doesn't go over the edge of the base?
