>>94666536>Thread Question:>Any warhammer presents today?No
MERRY SLAANESHMAS EC BROS
>>94666536You mean Slaaneshmas?
>>94666536>TQI got a lifesize Choppa, and the glorious gift of finished models.Post models, gentlemen. What're you working on this Christmas?
>>94666536>Any warhammer presents today?XV8 Crisis suits and XV25 Stealth suits. My brother in law wanted to give me that nudge to start my second army because I've been talking primarily about Tau pretty much any time we've discussed Warhammer lore in the past couple years.
>>94666557Brother, your checkerboards are way too neat for two reasons1. Orks shouldn't know what a straight line is2. You're making the rest of us look badseriously fantastic work, I'm jelly
>>94666572I find it helps to pencil in the grid lines before making the checkers. Lots of cleanup work afterwards, too.Also, Orks know damn well what a straight line is. It's the fastest way between you and the guy that needs a good choppin'.
>>94666557Got the Valourstrike box a few days ago as an early present. Working on the first couple Armigers to test paint schemes and effects. Still very much a WIP. Yes, they're magnetized, don't worry.
>>94666587Beginnin' to think you's an Ork in real life wif responses like dat.
>>94666594Well, I do have a Choppa (that needs painting)
>>94666603paint it blue
>>94666605Is there any other color?
New Deldar player here, looking to get into the army after getting a double CP with my Christmas bonus. Also want to try out some of the Harlequin units because they might be fun to paint - is something like this a decent list with the new clussy detachment?>Solitaire>2 Archons (Conductor, Archraider)>Death Jester>2x10 Kabalite Warriors>2x10 Incubi>1x5 Mandrakes>1x5 Dark Lance Scourges>Voidweaver>2 Ravagers>2 Venoms>2 Raiders>ChronosIncubi + Archons in the Raiders, Kabalites split in the Venoms with some holding the backline. Voidweaver is just to farm pain tokens with battleshock, Solitaire is a suicide bomber to kill a character early, Jester is just there to flip the wager
>>94666536I designer made some divisive design decisions on the new Fulgrim, between the more fish-like serpent tail and the body horror mutilated section. Makes me excited to see the regular models.
>>94666637I agree, but I wonder what this is actually meant to be. His groinal area flayed and peeled back and a symbol of Slaanesh placed within it. Feels like they could have been more creative in the body horror/torture department.
What do I want to outfit my aquilons with?
>>94666536that's fucking lame and gay
>>94666661Thongs
>>94666707They're already kinda wearing sandals.
>>94666713American thongs, not Australian thongs, you prisoner.
>>94666657They definitely could have gone further, but it is a big deviation from the standard design language of Fulgrim himself. Really it's something that only fluff and much older art has even been part of the EC design language. That Slaanesh Herald with the tendon-harp is about the closest we've seen out of GW before. That they would bring this element to Fulgrim makes me think there's a decent chance we'll see them take it further in something with less baggage. Maybe that possessed/elite melee unit that's been rumoured?
>>94666715They're already wearing assless chaps and skirts anon.
>>94666723nta but do we have any idea of the size of the model? i wonder if belakor is bigger
>>94666735I think belakor is bigger. I also think Belakor is the best model they have made for 40k in decades, he's perfect I wouldn't change a single thing about it unlike most other models
>>94666723>That they would bring this element to Fulgrim makes me think there's a decent chance we'll see them take it further in something with less baggagePossibly, we might see some EC head options that are one to one with some cenobite designs, like the Chatterer type head design. Or maybe someone at GW knows about the Even Horizon being a 40k movie meme and makes some heads inspired by that movie.
>>9466673530k with smaller wings my guess
>>94666589i'm more worried about your unthinned paints
luv emprah'sday me
>>94666761everytime I see magnus he's bigger than i imagine
>>94666761I really hate Corax's poseHe looks like a bird that was startled and started to fly off its perch
>>94666761Is Dorn really so tall comapred to Angron and Curze? Hes head and shoulders taller
>>94666786Bigger rock, closer to camera.
>>94666786tacticalrock
>have to wait until tomorrow to buy clippers and glue and stormshield so I can start on my modelsAt least I was able to order the transitions with the Christmas money. Does GW sell that stuff you have to put on them? I think one is the softener but then there's another thing you have to put on it?
>>94666786The older primarch models are quite a bit shorter than the newer wave.
why the hell is cawl so cheap
>>94666985No demand
So now I have a dilemma for an upcoming tournament. Do I go scions in metal boxes, or oops all infantry scions? The dilemma is spawned by the fact that three separate family members bought me Aquilons for the holiday, and a fourth got me paint.
>>94666985he's barely bigger than a warpsmith
oops! all slaangor combat patrol for EC
Is head swapping my minis because I find GW face sculpts universally ugly cringe?
>>94667058depends on the headswaps you pick
>TQMy wife got me some Salamanders dice but aside from that, no. Played myself and said I don't really need any more kits as I needed to work on my pile of shame.
What are the cons of 3D printing your own models
>>94667070can't use plastic gluehard to find good looking STLs that haven't been removed
>>94667070the cancer
>>94667061Usually just somewhat better detailed and less grotesque/cartoony faces, and proportionately slightly smaller most of the time because I just prefer more realistic looking scales
>>94667077Aspie
>>94667074no higher risk than spraying primer while wearing a mask
>>94667077That doesn't answer the question any more than if you had written 'more betterer ones'.Post pictures of the heads you are using so we can judge you for them.
>>94666536>TQNah just got money. I plan to blow it on hobby stuff though.
>>94666536>TQNo I got a preorder of the quar fidwog box from my family
>>94666536>Any warhammer presents today?I got a carrying case, a new paint rack, and the Ultimate 40k Guide.
Fulgrim's skin is too smooth. He looks like an eel not a snake.
>>94667252ok
>>94667258And the helmet looks very cool but doesn't really fit with the character.
>>94667264sure
>>94667264The only helmet Fulgrim should have.
>>94667264it's pumping drugs into him
>>94667264The helmet looks like a gimp mask.
>>94667266I like what looks like the regular power sword though. Someone should give him Guilliman's sword just to be cheeky.
>>94667284It's Fireblade.
>>94667289he's got an extra hand
>>94667284if you say so
>>94667289retard
>>94666657Needs a pair of veiny tyranid bio-weapons sticking out.
>>94667165In what way anon? I get its not his real groin, we can see his groin armour above it, its more like his thighs that are conjoined. You actually see his knees below the Slaanesh symbol I didn't see beforeJust comparing it to the 30k model, the back fleshy alien tubes above the corset stiched into his skin is more body horror than the flayed skin 40k fulgrim has imo
>>94667063Good man, I got a battery powered drill last year and that’s all I wanted. I still got gifted a stormsurge by the GF’s younger brother this year but it fills out the 2k points for my tau which is nice I guess. No fucking idea when I’m gonna build it. So far haven’t recieved anything else hobby related this year. Missed Christmas with most of the family though cus the GF and I have been dealing with Nurgle’s early present. Now that we’re on our feet again we’re gonna do our rounds and do the exchanges we’ve delayed.>>94666536>TQ Closest thing to a gift is finally feeling well enough to force myself to paint again. I fucking hate highlighting so much. Soon as the other 2 are done and based I’m gonna do the laziest, least highlighted breacher squad imaginable.
How much authority does a necron destroyer lord actually have?
>>94666536Can't seem to find it on Google. How tall is the Mawloc model?
>>94666606Red
>>94667360pretty tall
>>94667360Bout the same as a Norn.
>>94667356Not any, really. Destroyer Lords are just as much pariahs as any other Destroyer, and lead over only their fellow omnicidal nutjobs. There's a reason they've never had the "Noble" keyword in any edition where it exists.
>>94667328Retard.
>>94666609More incubi
>>94667398fanart, ferrus used a custom-made hammer
>>94667421He specifically remade Fireblade to kill Fulgrim with it and Fulgrim nabbed it off his corpse. Tell me how I know you've never read the book.
>>94667421No he didn't Ferrus used the FirebladeFulgrim used the warhammer forgebreaker initially, dropped it when he was injured by Ferrus and in a panic drew the Laer blade
>>94667369>>94667375But like, what's an appropriate height for a proxy?
>>94667425>>94667450Retards
>>94667466dollar store griffith in warcraft 3 arthas rendering style?
>>94667459Unironically not canon
>>94667470holy cope
>>94667466>You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.That's not Wulfrik the Wanderer
>>94667473Sorry bro the book is the new canon the hammer is a victim of retcon
>>94667465Except by Slaaneshi worthippers who use "shem"This is official from GW in the 80s.
>NOOOOOOOO FERRUS YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO JOIN CHAOS NOT DENT IT>NOOOOOOOO PERTARABO DON'T INTERRUPT MY PLAY NOW WE HAVE TO DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN>NOOOOOOOO GULLIMAN YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE CORRUPTED BY SLAANESH NOT SLEEP IT OFF>NOOOOOOOO RYLNAOR YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO JOIN ME NOT VIRUS BOMB ME
>>94667490Is Fulgrim the most pathetic Primarch?
>>94667494no perturabo and mortarion and leman and rogal dorn and the lion are all still more embarrassing
>>94666657>I agree, but I wonder what this is actually meant to be.i like to think that he peeled back his foreskin one day and just went too far
>>94667484Retard spammed his tranny memes and got longbanned so his whole post chain samefagging himself got nuked too
>>94667497Arguing whether or not Fulgrim should have a gaping Slaanussy is still 40k discussion.>>94667494No, Konrad is.Ferrus is a close second.Then Fulgrim is the III like his Legion.
>>94667494You severely underestimate the depths of pathetic that primarchs reach. The bar is so low that Fulgrim manages to be a little above average.
It's the 8 point star too
Does Nurgle like virus bombs?
what is the ork buddha?
>>94667498What's the tier list of primarch patheticness then?
>>94667515Orkkha
>>94667494no but only because he technically won his long term goal
Since they love grabbing things for nostalgia points, you think virus and vortex grenades will come back in a watered down form?
>>94667494That's not Perturabo so no.
>>94667514i think nurgle would like them if the virus was enjoyable enough
>>94667509>gaping SlaanussyIt's not explicitly that, just something that evokes imagery of. And it's there just for the body horror aspect, which is good, Slaanesh model designs are already pretty ass and even though its a Pr*march model its still a breath of fresh air.Also I like that his tail is fleshy, the 30k snake tail is kind of boring.
>>94667494Curze killed himself to prove a retarded point to absolutely no one, but Angron was literally to retarded to kill himself so I'd have to give the award to him.
This is the ideal Slaanesh follower body, you may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like>>94667491to be fair they edited the screecap to be a 40k meme
>>94667515British artists should never design guns
>>94667524Nah, the guy who posted Sigvald was correct.
>>94667478Nope, the only official model of the character that's explicitly depicting him and fulgrim's final fight trumps any slop books they shit out afterwards
>>94667534Angron wasn't pathetic enough to want to kill himself, he just wanted to die
Rolled 3, 4, 1, 3, 4, 3, 1, 3 = 22 (8d6)Rolling for Angry Ron and his angry tendenciesAlso more deleted posts jesus christ.
Calling this done for the night, all the lads have their silver's first step done. Next few steps are very fast, so probably only another 3ish hours on the paint table and this small pile is finished.What did you anons hobby on for Christmas?
>>94667541He spent months on a planet trying to find a creature to kill him when he could've just jumped out of his ship over the atmosphere.
>>94667547>deliberately missing the point this hard
>>94667539Wrong.
>>94667539Sorry bro, but the book is the more recent one
>>94667550>>94667552Hey man, whatever helps you cope>Captcha: h0h0h0
>>94667549>Too retarded to understand suicide by cop is still suicideYou're not helping his case, anon.
>>94667547primarchs and marines don't die in the vacuum of space
>>94666536>Fulgrim reveal isn't linked in OP>Grotmas still isYou get a pass for Christmas, but fix it tomorrow, throoder-anon.
>>94667557They burn up on reentry.
>>94667564Nah
>>94667545I'm on the other side of the country for christmas so nothingI'm looking through airbrush/compressor stuff and I might run into a store to see if I can pick up something cool before I fly back home
>>94667557They have space ships they can drive into the nearest sun to die if they really wanted to.What would that not kill in 40k, other than the C'tan
>>94667570vulkan will return even though he was disintegrated, primarchs can't die without a macguffinhence the dilemma of angron seeking a death he couldn't ever earn
>>94667567Vulkan burned to a crisp and died falling to Macragge. He just got back up again later. Angron could've done that at any point but was too dumb.
>>94667568Enjoy your shopping anon, what you thinking of grabbing?
>>94667575Curze died because a woman cut his head off. Vulkan was the odd man out.
>>94667579>Angron could've done that at any point but was too dumb.He would've gotten back up just like Vulkan
>>94667575> primarchs can't die without a macguffin>Ferrus Manusdecapitated>Konrad Curzedecapitated>Sanguinius torn open by a lightning claw>Alpharius Gutted by a mere chainsword>HorusSoul annhilated by the Emperor>GullimanAlmost killed by being stabbed in the neck, took 10k years to recoverPrimarchs die from mundane things more often than not
>>94667575If that were the case Angron could've just ripped the nails out of his head and gotten better, the whole point is that they were killing him but he'd die instantly if they were removed.
>>94667581Curze isn't dead and will return, just like omegon, ferrus, sanguinius>>94667584Incorrect
>>94667580Unsure to be honest. I was just going to see if anything catches my eyeI could probably use some shooty marine options because the bulk of my army is made of deathwing knights
>>94667582Vulkan was literally the only one with that ability, retard.
>>94667592Wrong
>>94667592>vulkan will return when the macguffins are recovered>rowboat returned once a macguffin was provided>the lion returned once a macguffin was provided
>>94667593Nope.
>>94667584Guilliman got slashed across the neck with the poisoned blade (was Fulgrim using the Anetheme at the time?) And speaking of the Anetheme, it almost killed Horus with just a little scratch because no one in the Imperium at the time knew how to deal with Nurgle rot.
>>94667593See>>94667587
>>94667587>yo boss, we're pretty sure you can't die and will just pop back to life later.>maybe just yank those angry nails out of your brain and wake up fine in a few years>we're like 90% certain this won't kill you forever, just trust us Angron
My never ever new 40K primarch models would be daemon Pert and Lorgar
>>94667584You're oversimplifying some of this>> primarchs can't die without a macguffin>>Ferrus Manus>decapitatedBy Fulgrim, who had a magic knife and some other bullshit. He might as well be a Macguffin>>Konrad Curze>decapitatedBy a culexus assassin and he still stripped nude and basically let them do it>>Sanguinius>torn open by a lightning clawBy Horus empowered by 4 chaos gods>>Alpharius>Gutted by a mere chainswordSure he was>>Horus>Soul annhilated by the EmperorThis is a mundane way to go?>>Gulliman>Almost killed by being stabbed in the neck, took 10k years to recoverBy a poisoned blade welded by Fulgrim daemon prince.None of these deaths are mundane.
>>94667610>yo boss, we're pretty sure you can't die and will just pop back to life later.They're literally sure about the exact opposite.
>>94667611Perty will be back next edition as a daemon prince of Vashtorr and leading to a full Dark Mechanicum army release.With Dorn returning on the Loyalist side
>>94667587Angron didn't want to die because of the nails, he wanted to die because the emperor refused to help his rebellion like he did for every other son and he had to watch all of his adopted slave family die without him
>>94667622He didn't want the nails in his head, you idiot.
>>94667545a leman russ >>94667078I don't have any scions yet because im not the biggest fan of their chest armor. I was thinking i would either use modded kasrkin or the old metal stormtroopers as scions
>>94667616Yeah, we get it, you're a retarded secondary or trolling.
>>94667631I accept your concession
>>94667637nah he's not me, the Horus death was meant to be the one non mudane death to compare to the other mundane deaths of getting your head cut off or stabbed. Is the laer blade even that magical, its just a daemon weapon dying to one is as mundane as dying to a bloodletter stabbing you. You're still just getting stabbed. Konrad let himself be killed he was still killed in a mundane manner (if hes really dead).
>>94667637Nah.
>>94667616>Every primarch has perpetual powers because I said soThat's all you have?
>>94667666Keep coping>>94667600
>>94667671Yes, that is indeed all you have.
>>94667674I accept your concession again
is primarch "discussion" one of the lowest parts of the franchise
>>94667675You just making things up isn't an argument, so there really isn't anything to say.
>>94667680No, that would be (you)
>>94667683whoa
>>94667681Explain how roboute and lionel coming back with macguffins just liek vulkan is me making something upYou can't ;)
so i started collecting nids about 3 months ago. this is what i have so far. got some christmas cash along with an unexpected refund from the guberment so i've got some more funny money to put towards the armywhere should i go from here?
>>94667688>where should i go from here?baneblade
>>94667687Vulkan pops up by himself within a couple of hours. Guilliman needs a stasis field and Eldar waifu to not die. Lion takes 10k years of napping in a forest dimension to heal and visibly ages during that time. Curze and Ferrus and Alpharius get their heads hacked off and don't come back.
>>9466725210 thousand years of rubbing and grinding up on everything and everyone in Slanesh's realm have worn away his underbelly scales.
>>94667688have you painted those ones yet
>>94667696>Vulkan pops up by himself within a couple of hoursHe hasn't returned in what, 7k years since getting disintegrated by the Beast, fluffletI accept your concession times 3
>>94667696curze and alpharius are dubiously dead at bestferrus already got revived once
I hate named charactersI think the characters and models are cool but I don't like every game ever featuring the Lion or Kharne or Farsight
>>94667713just paint them different and make them a nameless captain or something
>>94667713I'm more accepting of some than othersI like the phoenix lords and the minor daemon ones like the blue scribes, feels like they could show up on any random battlefield
>>94667703Yeah, you can repeat that phrase all you want and it still won't change anything. You're just retarded or trolling.
>>94667722>No rebuttal to the point>Just screaming TROLL TROLL TROLLLLLI'm glad you've realized you have no argument and are admitting defeat
>>94667536I have gotten so used to it that I no longer notice, unless someone mentions it.Then it causes laugh or autistic ranting on guns, armor and doctrine.
>>94667730There is no point. You can whine and scream and make shit up until the cows come home, it doesn't change anything. Your entire argument started with declaring that the guy whose entire plotline is that he is dying and he can't stop being in constant agony without dying can't actually die because you said so and that other people dying doesn't count because you said so.
>>94667720This works with some modelsYou could probably sell Azrael as a generic DA captain or as a custom paint scheme successor chapter master/captainBut nobody's going to look at Guilliman with red armor and not immediately see it as Guilliman with red armor unless you do some extensive kitbashing (and in the end he'll still look like a primarch or something on par with one due to size)Maybe I'm more annoyed by primarchs being in game more than anything
>>94667743this is why i play guard>not immediately see it as Guilliman with red armor unless you do some extensive kitbashingjust proxy a terminator or something. give it guilimans rules but use a totally different model.
>>94667742>There is no point.>Actively denying that it's canon that vulkan, just like the lion and roboute will return after enough time and macguffins are acquiredYou're pathetic You get all your info from YouTube shorts and 40k.wikia
>>94667750Enjoy your mandatory ugly lord solar I guess
>>94667754Why do you lie about things everyone can read for themselves? What is even the point?
>>94667750>just proxy a terminator or something. give it guilimans rules but use a totally different model.you could probably do something neat like this for a <your dudes> chapter master, maybe build up the base and have him with a servant or something like the BT character
>>94667756again, just sub him out for something else. I am building death riders on dirt bikes and i'm going to use a lord solar sized base to build a diarama of a colonel in carapace armor overlooking the battle field from his dirtbike on top of a hill.
>>94667441 He's the god of excess, not degeneracy.It's not enough for Slaanesh to want a hit of cocaine and ride motorcycles. He wants it to SNOW cocaine and BECOME the motorcycle.
>>94667756Lord Solar reminds me of something out of a Napoleonic War era cavalry unitI think a guard army that fully leans into this aesthetic would be really cool
>>94667756here is an example of a lord solar proxy that ignores the height requirment aswell.
>>94667494Perturabo was the biggest vagina of the bunch.
>>94667557>Now they no longer need oxygen to survivePower wank was a mistake.
>>94667756>>94667774I'm surprised that nobody has painted Lord Solar's face as an emotionless mask like King Baldwin's face-mask. Pic related to try and illustrate the face-mask I am talking about.>>94667776>ignores the height requirement as wellAutists are gonna refuse to play or screech about the height requirements in the name of "fair play." I remember seeing a scylla light tank STL (sentinel proxy about as high as a chimera tank) that's creator eventually made a high 80ml cylinder base for it with a joke description. My guess is players complained about height requirements and so the creator jokingly made a solution to the tank height problem. Either way I find the height requirement to be bad form as it stifles ideas and creativity when people create a "box of boundaries" that the model must "fit" into. Basing size is understandable but I feel that height requirements is a step too far.
>>94667828I try to get roughly close to size requirements (including height) but I'm not going to worry too much about it being a perfect match
>>94667828I agree completely, not to mention you could always put a flag on whatever it is that exactly meets height just to piss off autists. > as it stifles ideas and creativity I'm trying to distance myself from cadians while still using their color scheme and wargear. Kitbashing, 3dprinted parts, and proxying shit is the only way im gonna be able to make an army work. People are still gonna say "nice cadians dude"

oof
Can you have normal chaos stuff in athousand sons army? .. Or what is the best way to make a tzeentch army without too much dust?
>>94667867you forgot the part where you are an 17 year old virgin when all of this happens and you still go to hell because you were around chaos when you died.
>>94667884could always just make regular CSMs aligned to tzeentch
>>94667886Can it include the tzeentch daemons?
>>94667867Genuinely, the part about human cattle camps baffles me whenever it comes up. Orks have a self-contained eco-system of squigs, grots, and edible fungus. There's no point in keeping humans (who need specific feed because they're not first order consumers) as cattle unless you're trying to be edgy or humans taste especially good.
>>94667349Looks cute sallyfren
>>94667839
>>94667890yeah, no reason you cant take em as allies
>>94667879Looks kino
>>94667867Back to /40krpg/ you go
Which chaos faction, DG, TS, WE, is the most fun ?
>>94667923Do you like stinky bois who are slow but hard to remove? Death Guard.Do you like magic shenanigans and to ZZAAPPP motherfuckers?Thousand Sons.Are you a retard who wants simple, unga bunga "me charge u!" gameplay?World Eaters.
>>94667891Something that's been slowly minimized from their image is that orks are big sadists and like hurting things. They're evil and would absolutely run a human camp because they like eating humans.
>>94667879the only correct choice is magnetising the faces so you get to change her expression during the game
>>94667923CSM with a splash of DG, TS, and WE models as you please. barring that, deathguard probably has the best army in terms of unit variety for both hobbying and battlefield role. world eaters are fun unga bunga but incredibly one note and often their meta (and somehow poor internal balance despite only having 3 units) leads them to just spam a single unit making them hyper boring to hobby and very predictable on the table.thousand sons have slightly more variety than world eaters but much less still than deathguard. they also have a tendancy to rely super heavily on their sorcerers to get anything done, and the troops and tanks just kind of feel like afterthoughts needed to fill slots while magnus and his cabal do all the heavy lifting.
>>94667891>>94667936What if humans also provide something squigs couldn't? They're sapient beings after all, maybe there's some arbitrarily unique nutrient or you can taste the soul in 40k.Maybe orks can keep being smart by eating brains on top of using the brain fungi of ullanor.
>>94667923DG are the only ones with an actual full range of good models
>>94667941Do like the look of Tzeentch units, mostly the Daemons .. But would not like to have to include named characters / Primarchs
>>94666953Wot?
>>94667879>I'm a genius>Oh no
so you're telling me if I buy a 3d printer I can sculpt and print out bits for my miniatures? anything? I could give my space marines little marine dongs if I wanted? sounds like too much power for one man...
>>94667990It's a secret GW doesn't want you to knowIt can even make cute Sisters
>>94667990you could do that with greenstuff too if you can sculpt and then cast the shlongs in bluestuff moulds that you fill with sprue goo
>>94667494Angron basically told Guilliman to check his privilege at one point and I've never taken him seriously since
>>94667515He iz both kunnin' and brutal. At da same time

>>94668012Are you serious? What are the exact quotes?
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>94668054>Bi-winning
>>94668012Gimme a quote, I want to have a laugh.Angron in its entirety is a fucking joke holy shit
>>94667584You forgot>Rogal DornBumrushed by dark eldar/cultists>jagathai KhanKilled in the comorragh fighting pits
>>94668061>>94668079He was whining comparing Nuceria to Macragge and the fact Guilliman was adopted by royalty while he was put in chains. Real subtle.
>>94667879Once again, proof that helmets are the best options always.
>>94668079> Two primarchs faced one, and Guilliman was cunning enough to back away and take whatever ground he could.>> ‘You two.’ He looked at them with eyes heavy with judgement. ‘My brothers, my brothers, what a sorry sight you’ve become. Traitors. Heretics. No better than the treasonous cultures we’ve quashed for the last two hundred years. Did you learn nothing? Either of you?’>> ‘Always the teacher,’ said Lorgar, and there was admiration in his smile. ‘It grieves me this was necessary, Roboute.’>> Guilliman ignored him, aiming a gauntlet at Angron. ‘I’ve heard Lorgar’s puling heresies already. What brought you so low, brother? Did the machine in your skull finally refashion your loyalty into madness?’>> ‘Hnnngh. They let me dream. They give me peace. What would you know of struggle, Perfect Son? Hnh? When have you fought against the mutilation of your mind? When have you had to do anything more than tally compliances and polish your armour?’>> ‘Childish,’ Guilliman sighed, gesturing to the burning, dying city. ‘Does it really come down to this? So pitiably childish.’>> ‘Childish? The people of your world named you Great One. The people of mine called me Slave.’ Angron stepped closer, chainswords revving harder. ‘Which one of us landed on a paradise of civilisation to be raised by a foster father, Roboute? Which one was given armies to lead after training in the halls of the Macraggian high-riders? Which one of us inherited a strong, cultured kingdom?’>> Angron sprayed bloody spit as he frothed the words. ‘And which one of us had to rise up against a kingdom with nothing but a horde of starving slaves? Which one of us was a child enslaved on a world of monsters, with his brain cut up by carving knives?’
>>94668076Thought it was appropriate for a high priest vatican assassin warlock
>>94668079>>94668094> The two primarchs met again. Guilliman’s powered gauntlets should have easily deflected Angron’s chainswords, but the World Eater’s strength drove his brother back step by step. Chain-teeth sprayed from the weapons as eagerly as the saliva from Angron’s lipless slit of a mouth.>> ‘Listen to your blue-clad wretches yelling of courage and honour, courage and honour, courage and honour. Do you even know the meaning of those words? Courage is fighting the kingdom that enslaves you, no matter that their armies overshadow yours by ten thousand to one. You know nothing of courage. Honour is resisting a tyrant when all others suckle and grow fat on the hypocrisy he feeds them. You know nothing of honour.’>> Guilliman parried, forced back further by the storm of Angron’s blows. He finally landed a glancing blow, his fist pounding across Angron’s breastplate. The chain of Desh’elika skulls shattered, bone shards scattering across the dirt.>> ‘You’re still a slave, Angron. Enslaved by your past, blind to the future. Too hateful to learn. Too spiteful to prosper.’
does cawl still have a biological brain or did he get turned into data
>>94668094>>94668099Even more pathetic than I remember. Thanks Librarian
>>94668101I think he has several from integrating more people into himself.But with how often he has wiped himself who knows how functional they are.
>>94668099It feels like almost every primarch's fall to chaos was them all whining about how their dad didn't get them their favorite Christmas toy
Bring back lost and the damned! .. I want humans, artillery and daemons together!
why would traitor legions flee to the eye of terrori thought they were just there, abandoned by the emperor, when the eye of terror formed over them
>>94667688Neurolictor and Lictors
>>94668161>I want humans, artillery and daemons together!then convert imperial guard models and use genecult rules with the genestealers profiles standing for demons
>>94668165the eye of terror formed with the fall of the eldar before mankind had its great crusadethe chaotic forces fled to the eye of terror because it's less accessible to the imperium and more accessible to chaos forces, especially the demons the heretics worship and serve, which rarely have a stable presence in realspace otherwise
>>94666657They should've made the slaanesh symbol look like it was carved into the muscle.
>>94668209That wouldn't offer a focal point of a different colour
>>94668172That might be a good idea
>>94667944>Maybe orks can keep being smart by eating brains on top of using the brain fungi of ullanor.Nah, something this important about their race would be mentioned. And its Kroot gimmick anyway.
>>94667252You can just use the FW fulgrim desu. No one would care if you used the FW as a proxy to the 40k one.The new 40k one and FW one are probably the same size.
>>94668222How brittle is FW resin nowadays?And the image some anon posted made it look like it was a mega shit cast
>>94668172Is there a way for genestealer culstist to take any form of artillery or gun platforms?
>>94668120Because it is.There's a reason why Horus Heresy is regarded to be pretty terrible because it just makes lot of the characters, namely the primarchs and Emperor, look like complete retards.Like Emperor is a good example of this, his characterization depends on whoever is writing him at that current time. Which then makes Emperor's character look like a complete retard who has no idea at best and at worst he looks like he has bipolar disorder seeing how his demeanor swings.And the main contributor to this problem is that there are like 10+ writers for the HH and every single one of them has their own perfect vision as to how the HH was. Then it is confounded by the fact that there doesn't seem to be any sort of "lore bible" for 40k. Like an internal document for GW and its writers to reference so shit stays consistent.Also it feels like there's no editorial team at BL, and if there are any they have heads up their asses.And then this shit is made multiplicately worse by GW, because it has its head up its own ass and it goes with the>"everything is canon not everything is true"approach to canon because they DO NOT care because they'll retcon any fluff that is written in 10 years time anyway probably.
>>94668243the brood brothers detachment
>>94668221I doubt the subtleties of ork diets and physiology would be explored in the short period of time orks had their waaagh of the beast.
>>94668260the CSM codex should get a detachment like that too
>>94668296It should be its own codex, so you don't lose army rules for taking units from other codices
>>94668248It's the feeling I've been gettingI've been listening to audiobooks for them while I work and Horus' fall in the book really annoyed me because of all the established reasons given (Daemon corrupted weapon injury, chaos influence from the word bearers lodge, seeing humanity's future on Davin, him thinking the Emperor was going to Thunder Warrior the primarchs, and his hubris thinking he'd be better than the Emperor) they fixated on his fever dream where daddy didn't have a statue of him next to SanguiniusAnd suddenly after an entire novel full of Astartes considering each other to be infallible blood brothers who find the mere thought of lying to one another appalling they eagerly gun each other downHorus Rising felt like actually decently written setup that fumbled into multiple novels of daddy issues with intermittent moments of good things
>>94668299I disagree, guard but spiky doesn't deserve its own codex.
>>94668161Check out Madrobot, AnvilIndustry, and WGA's The Damned.WGA's Kickstarter thing on Gamefound ends this month on the 31st. I plan to just make a chaos guard army and play them using guard rules. The tanks won't be kitted out with spikes or chains. I plan to just have them in regular bland colours with a contrasting colour to be infernal chaos scribbles.
>>94668306We need all of theseChaos guardChaos custodesChaos sistersChaos mechanicusChaos eldarChaos tauChaos necronsChaos orksChaos votannChaos tyranids
>>94668312Could GW even afford a ruleswriting team that can handle all those armies?
>>94667969>But would not like to have to include named characters / Primarchsyou should probably avoid world eaters and thousand sons then, those 2 armies are entirely dependent on their named characters to functioni havent played DG in 10th, but from what i remember in 8th and 9th mortarion and typhus were more optional
>>94668314Can they even handle the current armies
>>94668325No. But let me dream.If an ex-GW ruleswriter came out and said that GW deliberately keeps the rules under a threshold of quality to justify the "codex-train" of yearly releases I wouldn't be surprised.
>>94668310>WGA's The Damned.>Gamefound ends this month on the 31st. Brothers, talk me out of it. I can feel the FOMO. Especially those extra sprues though.
>>94668312Wrong & moronic and I am still going to call out the obvious bait
>>94668312>Chaos guarda few more units in the CSM codex and a detachment to bring in extra guard units, alright>Chaos mechanicusalso just a few units in the CSM codex with options to bring more knights and demon engines than normal>Chaos eldartoken crone world eldar kill team thrown in one eldar codex which could be fielded by chaos too maybe >Chaos taunot really chaos but farsight could use a kill team of more seasoned tau veterans with grisly scars, trophies and grim attitude >Chaos necronsnot necrons, but chaos androids should be one of the dark mechanicum units in CSM, while men of iron should be in LoV>Chaos orksone token chaos aligned stormboys kill team thrown in codex orks which could be fielded by chaos too maybe >Chaos votannone token chaos votann model in one of the dark mechanicum units in the CSM codex>Chaos tyranidsone genecults detachment to represent a chaos-infected cult which allows the army to bring some beastmen, chaos cultists, mutants and a few demons
>>94668335Samefag it less though.
>>94668344>Chaos orks>one token chaos aligned stormboys kill team thrown in codex orks which could be fielded by chaos too maybe>not Tuska Daemonkilla and a unit of khorne corrupted boyz/nobz
>>94667879They forgot to show one head option.
>>94668348Locking a very niche unit concept behind a big special character isn't something I vibe with.The point of these units would be to show that the universe is larger, not smaller.
>>94668333Oh no .. I don't have space or time for all of this
>>94668312Literally all of this save chaos orks and chaos necron can be represented by the normal chaos cultists unit or Renegade regiment unit.Consoom less and kitbash more you hobbylet
>>94668358That's dumb because as you say, it's already a niche concept. Chaos orks aren't common and the point of TDK is that he's the most notable chaos ork, he gives a face to a concept that otherwise wouldn't exist. There's no reason why chaos orks other than Tuska's boyz can't exist so it's not as if the concept is "locked". Something like chaos stormboyz is lame and is antithetical to the fluff. Stormboyz and blood axes in general may act as mercenaries but they're not the sort to get wrapped up with chaos zealotry to the point they would get corrupted, they're just mercanaries and are practically imperium wehraboos.
>>94668335It was a joke nigga
>>94668376>chaos orks>uncommonMost stormboyz go through a phase where they start worshipping khorne before they grow older and let go of that nonsense
Eldar are goofy looking I love them
>>94668387Naw you are.
>>94668376>Chaos orks aren't commonthey are common enough to warrant a mention in how orkish kultur is shaped, not enough for a full range, perfect for a kill team
>>94668383why would the empty shells be ejected that way?
>>94668391She is using a left-handed bolt pistol with her right hand
Reminder that Eldar are expressly the reason why Angron and Fulgrin fell to Chaos.
>>94668382>>94668389Okay then so they aren't a niche concept, therefore there's no issue with giving them character representation ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>94668310The WGA gamefound stuff looks pretty good, might give it a go
>>94668312But anonChaos is the most fucking boring and Mary sue faction there is Why shit up good factions with a smear of diarrhea?
>>94668400>Okay then so they aren't a niche conceptyes they are because they don't warrant a range.are you dense? can you count to a number higher than 2?
>>94668383I think normal bolt pistol discipline is to use it with your left hand while using a melee weapon with the right
>>94668416Meant for >>94668391
>>94668414>they're niche so they shouldn't be locked behind a character>no that's dumb>actually they aren't niche anyway>okay so there's no issue giving them a character>actually they are niche because they don't deserve a whole range, not for the reasons I originally gave
>>94668350Still isn’t funny lamentersanon.
>>94668416She's ambidextrous.
>>94668412>votann, tau, nids>good factions
>>94668399I know the Fulgrim part but what did they do to Angron?
What faction or group would make for a good dungeon crawler RPG?Obvious answer would be something like a deathwatch kill team with customization of original chapters each party member comes from, but I am wanting to poke deeper.
>>94668434Better than chaos, yes. By far.
>>94668388Anon is goofy looking and I love them
>>94668437Imperial agents and Rogue traders are the obvious choices
>>94668436Tried to kill baby ron as soon as he landed, he kills them, but is too exhausted to fight his enslavers.
>>94668437chaos cultists
Every Primarch release makes me hate 40K more and more
>>94668434>tau, nidsGood factions>votannBetter than space marines at least
>>94668437I'm genuinely surprised the Black Lion of Ultramar isn't in this picture
>>94668443Oh right those too. >>94668445Now that would be an interesting one with different blessings and curses from each god as you go further and further.
>>94668444Oh, right. You think if he ended up a slaver instead of a slave he would have been less likely to fall to chaos?
>>94668437Penal Legion for Imperial Guard. That way you have a bunch of guys from different regiments who are also criminals.
>>94668437Inquisition retinue, you can have a variety from requisitioned deathwatch marines, sisters of battle, psykers, and guardsmen, as well as interrogators and savants, most importantly it gives you a variety of characters from different backgrounds who are united together for the same cause, but aren't necessarily on the same page all the time if you don't want them to be. There's also no limit to how big a retinue can theoretically be, they could just be a small part of an inquisitor lord's staff, or they're a retinue of a radical who's mostly cut off and needs all the help he can get.
>>94668444>Tried to kill baby ron as soon as he landed, he kills them, but is too exhausted to fight his enslavers. This is such a stupid concept you're telling me eldar that can move so fast normal humans can not follow them and even SM have a hard time can be killed by a baby. HH is such a joke feels like something from wattpad.
>>94668428the goal hasn't moved, anon, you just fail to realise the goal is in-between the posts and not outside of them.They're niche enough to not warrant a rangeThey're not niche enough to be stuck behind a special character
>>94668437rogue traders, the other organisations don't get to have as much fun with goals, means and character archetypes.
>>94668465>it's just a baby bloodthirster
>>94668465Space marines have always moved as fast as plot demanded them to
>>94668434Better than chaos, yes.
>>94668454Well he wouldn't have the nails installed for one, and the emperor might not have beamed him up away from his slave family that he had created bonds with at their last fight for glory.Honestly, Angron was fucked from the get go as soon as they made him a slave.
>>94668430what?
>>94668466You make it out like it's too different arguments when it's arguing the same point. I don't care regardless because my position is win/win, either they're not niche enough that having a special character isn't an issue, or that they are niche so having a special character helps give them representation and makes them feel less random. Literally no one was talking about giving them a full range, it's an irrelevant point and a desperate gambit to win a failing argument.
>>94668519>either they're not niche enough that having a special character isn't an issueit is an issue because you're locking them behind the special character and making the universe feel smaller because every time this relatively niche unit is fielded it's always behind the special character, when it's not THAT niche, they're a concept that has existed long before and way beyond that one character.
>>94668519>>94668569and the entire discussion started from the idea of giving chaos orks a full range, if you see it as some kind of gamble it's because you cannot read or cannot understand what you read.

>>94668647I dropped a shitpost about GW's boring handling of chaos by cloning other factions (marines, guard, knights) and went to ASDA, came back to shitflinging over orks
>>94666536So when does fulgrim get released? 6-8 weeks or so?
>>94668676We just don't know.
>>94668576No it started off of someone suggesting a kill team and whether or not they should have a character rather than stormboyz, you're grasping at straws because no one talked about a full range after the post that the kill team suggestion responded to. A character and a unit does not a full range make.
>>94668676With the Emperor's Children codex, because he won't be in the starter box.And that will be at least 3 months away because we know the next three codex releases are Imperial Guard, Eldar, and Imperial Knights.
Farstalkers and pathfinders done, vespids next. With darkstrider and a ghostkeel in the mail, my tau are starting to take shape.
I just wanted Lhykis to get some spotlight. We're going straight to Fulgrim season, aren't we?
Running EC without it being a fulgrim dance party is going to be pure cancer isn't it? This is why I don't like primarchs on the table, because inevitably GW will always build the codex around them and just having your entire faction being herowanking a single £120 named model is gayer than 10,000 years spent with femboys in the eye of terror.
>>94668734Can't it be both? There's always two sides to a conflict.
>>94668733>doneWhere? I don't see any completed units. Why did you post unpainted grey plastic when talking about things that are done?
>>94668733what colours you going to paint them anon
>>94668734Pretty sure it’s gonna be a very purple winter.
>>94668708>No it started off of someone suggesting a kill team>no one talked about a full range after the post that the kill team suggestion responded toit's almost as if it didn't start at the kill team now, did it?
>>94668714Do we know anything though? Did GW put up a roadmap?
>>94668734>I just wanted Lhykis to get some spotlightWe're not getting a focus on the eldar releases until a week or two before preorders, still some months to go.
>>94668744Hard agree. Epic heroes were a mistake, named characters should have stayed "if your opponent agrees" only
>>94668749Done assembling obviously. You should work on your reading comprehension, anon.>>94668756Tau proper will be in the classic desert scheme, not sure about the kroot and vespids yet. I like their classic schemes, too, with kroot being somewhere between dark greens and browns and vespids a bright blue, but I might change those up a bit. Do you have any suggestions?
>>94668734Eldars aren't primarchs, sorry. And, as we know, GW hate xenos (eldar).
>>94668785Also, Primarchs sell (unlike Eldar).
>>94668744>build the codex around the centerpiece >the centerpiece feels obligatory now>don't build the codex around the centerpiece >the centerpiece feels useless nowperfect balance is unreachable, reality is rotten, entropy wonmy list has a winratio smaller by 3%, millions must buy
Painted a Proteus and printed up a base to run it as an ATV>>94668799or you know, give the character synergy with one of the detachments.
>>94668798If primarchs sell and phoenix lords don't, why did GW make more phoenix lords than it did primarchs? and how can any answer to the above not be also an answer behind the the bloat of marine kits?
>>94668805That would change nothing.You would still be comparing a detachment with him and a detachment without him and one of them will always be better than the other, making the big centerpiece feel obligatory/useless because balance can't be perfect.
>>94668782If you could work on reading between the lines, that would be appreciated. Since you're autistic and unable to, I'll be blunt- unpainted grey plastic isn't welcome to be posted. It's nothing special. Most posters here have mountains of it. Post when they're painted, fuck off til then.
>>94668819If you try real hard, you might be able to overcome your unfortunate predispositions and enjoy a relatively normal life. I belive in you, lmao.

>>94668836I think they’re cooler than the normal tau too.

>>94668744Why even pretend like you’re gonna get an EC army if you’re not interested in Fulgrim?
>>94668836That kit was such a joy to build, I had no idea. The only thing I'd criticise is that the one hound has a bland pose.
>>94668845>AAhhhhhh Farsight was suppose to become best friends with Guilliman and exchange a respectful nod with the Lion and use a quippy oneliner on Abaddon and finally meet the Emperor he did none of those things I'm losing my mind AhhhhhhUppity Xenosfags

>>94668853Anon please. Farsight didn't even get treated as proper filler, they literally put hom in just so they could remove the mystery behind him as they bought time to hype up Lion. Farsight wasn't even really IN AoO, his book as just a space waster.
So has Farsight finally been confirmed to be compromised by Khorne? And that blade of his to be a crone sword?
>>94668676try 3-4 months away
>>94668785I feel like, with proper focus and a good book series with some political infighting and wars of ideas, Phoenix Lords COULD be like Primarchs and have a similar level of character to them
>>94668878No. His blade is a Khornate weapon that keeps him sustained through bloodshed, but he's resolved to resist Khorne and face Chaos.
>>94663729Have you finished printing that anon?
>>94668878no and noas far as I remember the sword is confirmed to be of chaos xenos origin but not of eldar or croneworld origin and farsight is being looked at by both khorne and tzeentch, perhaps with khorne predominantly but still he's got no real hold, if anything farsight is being foreshadowed as the kind of guy who can and will sidestep the temptations of chaos and achieve peace.
>>94668897>Phoenix Lords COULD be like Primarchs and have a similar level of character to themYou're a fucking idiot. Nobody gives a fuck about eldar, meanwhile HH is the best selling series GW ever produced. There's probably more HH books than there are xenos books, and you think that the faction most people already hate might get the same affection the fucking Primarchs do?
>>94668917>faction most people already hatenta but you shouldn't think "opinions" of this shithole apply everywhere else
>>94668917>Nobody gives a fuck about eldarThen why is the game with more phoenix lords than primarchs more popular than the one centered around the best selling series gw ever produced?
>>94668917>faction most people already hateChaos? Marines? Tau? Votann? You're making no sense.
>>94668917You misunderstood. I am saying no one does care about them currently because they are not characters. But they could be.
>>94668917Eldar being largely unpopular among 40k players is such a retarded take, you should be embarrassed to even attempt this sort of shitposting.

>>94668926The ironic thing is that applies a lot more to you xenosfucks here yapping about the popularity of Phoenix Lords and 'my scrotum is telling me a DE refresh is coming' than it does to 'Primarchs suck' 'Space Marines suck'
>>94668943Watch out for the samefag accusation.
>>94668897>>94668950
>>94668950>GW forgot atleast about one 30 y.o. phoenix lordthat's like saying that gw forgot about fulgrim until it remembered yesterday, there's shit that forces the release schedule to be spread out.
>>94668951I never said anything about either of those you fucking inbred retard. If you unironically think 40k players as a whole hate eldar then you've been in a 4chan echo chamber way too long and it shows in your worthless opinions which are completely detached from reality. Now go kill yourself, you'll do this thread an immense favor by swallowing a cyanide pill
>>94668979At least he is easy enough to identify and disregard.
>>94668951>The ironic thing is that applies a lot more to youNo, it doesn't, you're tone deaf, EC.
Are there really still retards who buy the whole "If xenos got more attention they'd be as popular as the Imperium!" crap? That's been shut down multiple times.
>>94669008Has it?
>>94668962GW start adding primarchs in 40k after when HH-slop got profits and neckbeard kids, who love it. Karandras with the rest of phoenix lords and units like warp spiders didnt updatet in 30 years. What kInd of release schedule you talking about?>gw forgot about fulgrim until it remembered yesterdayTwo resin mins in HH be like
>>94669012>He thinks the 'vote' was legitLmao
>>9466900840k is still way more popular than 30kit's not due to the rules, because 40k has shit rules, it's not due to the resin, because hh now has plastic ranges, and it's not due to the marines because pic related are the marines 40k gets
>>94669016>it's not real to me because... it just isn't!
>>94669025>its more popular because of Phoenix Lords and the Dark Eldar range!Fuck off!
>>94669013>What kInd of release schedule you talking about?Then one that made GW space apart the (so far) two sides of the eldar range update 3 years apart.
>>94669034You got a new thread cooking already, you massive faggot? Make sure to post it as soon as we hit page 6 or someone might make it first and take from you the only thing in your entire life that you have some semblance of control over
>>94669043Least insane xenosfag
>>94669034Not exclusively but they obviously contribute, eldar are popular after all, back when the game was snaller they managed to develop 2 armies when chaos only had one!
>>94669013Are you having a stroke, buddy?
>Somebody pounts out xenos can't be as popular as Primarchs>Xenofags go ballisticIs it a coping mechanism or do they really delude themselves into thinking it can happen?
>>94669075Why do you insist on talking while avoiding yo use responses?Are you that afraid to call attention to your stupidity?
>>94669075>>94669047>>94669034>>94669016>>94669008>>94668951>>94668917samefag less, edgecuck
>>94669075You might want to cool down a bit before calling other people ballistic
>>94669039Wow, two updates in thirty years. That's too many for them.
>>94669075>Somebody points out the lack of interest might be due to the lack of support>Slaaneshifag has a meltdownIt happens when a terminally online person lets a fantasy IP become his personality.One day we will have proteins linked to autism named after warhammer like there's one called sonic the edgehog.
>>94669094Don't pretend like Eldar don't get constant new releases. They just have a very large range and get it piecemeal. The alternative is some Primaris style bullshit where they just start the whole army over again to roll out piecemeal rather than actually updating it all at once.
>>94669094they got way more, eldar have a long history of model releases, unlike, say, cult marineshttps://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Miniatures:_Eldarand rumours point to even more: corsairs and perhaps even exodites
I fucking hate truescale minis, I miss the classic style so much...
>>94669097>>Somebody points out the lack of interest might be due to the lack of supportAnon that's just it. Eldar DO get support. They have several book series and were prominent in video games.Problem is nobody liked them in the games and the books sold so badly that two of the series were cancelleled mid production.
>>94669097The problem with this argument is you people think niche within a niche concepts (like gay evil space bondage elves) just need more money thrown at it to find a wider audience but you can't accept the fact that that fucking concept is something most people want nothing to do with (even within the 40k community).TLDR: Not every idea is equal.
>>94669123This conversation started about Phoenix Lords. You are the only one trying to bring the music less popular bondage elves into the conversation.
>>94669138>>94669123Hey, I'm a big fan of The Dark Eldar myself but I fully understand why they are not popular. And I wouldn't want them to change them to make them popular either. I'd rather have a variety of armies with niche appeal then all of them cater to Mass appeal.
>>94669117Anon, not even aos books get cancelled due to lack of sales.The eldar novels weren't cancelled due to lack of sales but most likely because whatever change in eldar lore they were meant to herald had been recalled.The timeframe without eldar/elves releases in both 40k and aos would coincide with the hypothesis of a range redesign almost ready to get launched getting scrapped and reworked from the ground up, and it's the same timeframe that got slaanesh out only recently(/soon).they were planning on killing slaanesh and completely reinventing the eldar.fortunately they went with conservative approaches to the lore of 40k and we got faithful updates instead.
Lorefriends, can someone explain? Is the Tyranid hivemind a distinct entity guiding a bugillion puppet bodies through a psychic network, or just a gestalt of a bugillion hungry mouths loosely linked through each other? Or I guess in other words, does the hivemind cause the synapse link, or does the synapse link create the hivemind?
>>94669165>Anon, not even aos books get cancelled due to lack of sales.>The eldar novels weren't cancelled due to lack of salesGav literally came out and said the Ynnari trilogy got cancell3d due to poor sales.The fact AoS books don't get cancelled but the Eldar books did isn't indicative of some ulterior motive, it's indivative that the boks did THAT badly.
>>94669117Whenever eldar appear in videogames they become a point of interest.
>>94669165Honestly, if the Ynnari thing were pushed harder and we got more shit that looked like the Corsairs and the Visarch I'm not sure I would be too upset about it.
>>94669171Also this, though I always thought it's the latter instead of one big hungry bug.>t. newfaggot gsc player
>>94669175>GavYou mean the guy hogging elven stories and writing them as misery porn while admitting live that he hates elves?You expect anyone to consider that novel support?
>>94669185There is way, way too much fan art of this guy for what a terrible character he actually is in the game.It's just thirsty women, isn't it?
>>94669189I don't think it's an actual physical thing, but I figured it might be some sort of godlike being? Hoping lorefriends have clarification.
A NEW THREAD HAS APPEARED!>>94669203>>94669203>>94669203
>>94669193I genuinely don't understand why they write Eldar books the way they do. They clearly understand that Bolter porn and faction wank is what people come to their novels for because all of the other factions books are written that way.
>page 5Holy throod
>>94669175>Gav literally came outnot surprising>and said the Ynnari trilogy got cancell3d due to poor sales.no, he didn't
>>94668608Assembly and Javascript.
>>94668094>>94668099This is pretty mediocre writing. Primarchs and their dealings should have remained mythology, they just come off as manchildren with daddy issues.

>>94669013>GW start adding primarchs in 40k after when HH-slop got profitsGW started adding primarchs into 40k after Magnus got his daemon prince model and it sold well.
>>94669025The thing is that all 4 of those are universally reviled by everyone.Even primarisfags hate them. I would know since I like primaris and I have zero interest in buying any of those because they look plain bad.
