>>94856277Dark Eldar, apparently
Don't forget to get your 500 word smut draft done by next month
>>94856277>tqFlawless Host. Every guest must be satisfied.
Any chapter that gets more focus will likely becoming lamer as a result desu
>>94856293Someday.
>>94856317not possible salamanders are the already designated lame and gay chapter.
>>94856319Next year.
You can choose the next new Codex GW will make after Emperor's Children with only one limit: Can't be Marine-Focused. What new faction you introduce?
>>94856277Celestial Lions, that way GW can virtue signal with gigga nigga marines while also having Black Templars around to please both sides. And they'll be killing uppity Inquisitors which is always nice.

>>94856339I’d combine chaos marines with lame space marines and guard.
>>94856324Hopefully.
>>94856339Chaos eldar.
>>94856273>yeah, but they can't precisely keep track of what causes what exactlyWith certainty? No, but it's actually rather simple mathematics to track and isolate changes in sales following releases or with seasonal shifts. They can't get perfect data, but even I could hash out some pretty good models their full sales data.>if GW didn't want overlaps in its gaming systems it wouldn't have brought back the old world at alThey DIDN'T want to make TOW, there's pretty strong evidence the only reason they've done it was that they discovered that, unlike 40k, they can't just fuck around and have everyone buy the models. They could bomb embassies and people would still buy marines, but AOS didn't have a lot of the popular armies people wanted to play, people didn't like the sculpts, people didn't like the focus of the fantasy marines and it was a strict 'no-nostalgia' zone. They backpedaled to keep from having to throw their entire fantasy range into a garbage bin.Without insider information I can't say what's going on at GW, but if official GW events and stores keep segregating their own models not only does it not do them any good in a business sense, it's going to push their strongest soldiers off to other battlefields for the GALL of wanting to play with THOSE MARINES and not THESE MARINES.Not to mention Admech is still undergoing the world's largest seizure over having two incompatible ranges that ALMOST would make a well fleshed out army if you shoved them together.
>>94856339Adeptus Custodes codex 2.0. Second wave of Custodes releases, recton of femstodes. Something to make anti custodes fags sethee even more than second Custodes codex during edition.Also SoS could use something nice, like actual release.
>>94856339Surprise return of the Men of Iron.
>>94856339>>94856349Men of Iron obviously. Fuck Votann and give me non-terminator machine army other than Necrons
>>94856408>admech complaining about an awful range>chaos marines and gsc sitting in the handful of datasheet corner
>>94856339It's time for Grots to rise.Time for Da Great Revolushun!!!!
>>94856438if men of iron looked like this they could easily coexist in the votann codex as a subfaction like kroots do in tau
>>94856456admech complaining is justified on the basis that half the shit in their range is stuff nobody asked for, like cyborg horse cavalry and not what they actually want, which is robots.
>>94856456It was an example, GSC got cucked by the necromunda release.Chaos doesn't get to cry because they're like 8 fucking armies and if you're not a fucking coward all marine releases are chaos marine releases.

Watcha working on /40kg/? Just figured out a head I like for this guy, I shall call him Craniax. [spoiker]Who wants to go on his rack?[/spoiler]
>>94856339I'd like an elite xenos faction. Near custodes tier. But I don't want them to be animalistic. They should be intelligent and have personality.
>>94856517I got fusion blasters magnetized for the lad on the left. Still need to magnetize a shield generator and drill barrels.I might be coming down sick, but I might still try to build another suit today.
>Which lesser-known successor chapters deserve more attention in the lore?Brazen Claws. Iron Hands successors are largely unexplored, I'd like to see how their legion's culture passed down (if at all, and if not why) to successors. They've got requisite traitor companies following a suicide crusade into the eye of terror, and are dancing on the edge of a knife as to whether they're just declared a fallen chapter as a result.
I dunked on Necrons today. 1k quick game with my scions. He pushed a unit out into the open and was shocked when three units of scions picked his lychguard up without blinking.

What's taking them so long to make Exodites already? They will sell surely.
>>94856510No progress shot on my scratchbuilt tank itself, blocking out the metallics and doing first stage weathering on them. Here's how the enamel rust paints turned out on some of the separate components.
>at LGS>decide to get a Blight Hauler>expect it to kind of break the bank like regular Space Marine vehicles but don’t care cause Demon Engines are cool>ends up being 30 bucks for 90 pointsDamn this seems too good to be true lmao. Gonna grab multiple now.
>>94856510>>94856517got some greenstuff sausages curing for some wiring greeblies rn
>>94856579good one
>>94856604>jannies deleting my post complimenting somebody's modelOkay?>>94856557Good stuff
Strange that this iteration of noise marines seem to have the least amount of mutations compared to all the other EC units revealed.
>>94856517I finished up this lightning, and blood effects on the cape, then I glued him together (minus the cape)He genuinely looks so cool put together. I just gotta finish the base now.
>>94856510cool tank anon>>94856476It's still my favorite range in 40k, even the stilt man grew on me
>>94856656i think the stilt guy kinda cool too
>>94856656thanks anon>had fun painting the screens/buttons/etc
>>94856476I don't want robots, though? I want more braindead cyborgs and weirdo priests.
>>94856630>jannies deleting my post complimenting somebody's modelarchive doesn't show that post # existed on /tg/
>>94856643One of them seems to have their flesh growing over what used go be their helmet. It seems thematically appropriate, if just not more interesting for the Noise Marines/EC in general to be more uncanny valley, looking more twisted the longer you stare, to contrast the brutal and grotesque designs of the rest of the Chaos Marines.
>>94856675I would kill for future Inquisition full of weird flesh-metal amalgams as cultists, witch hunters and zealot troops (non-female) all without marine influence
>>94856339Gotta be codex: Mercenaries with aliens and shitOr Chaos Xenos with Yu'vath and Chaos Eldar.Or Traitor Guard/Lost an the Damned/Dark MechanicummiesReally you could do a lot of fun stuff if GW stopped being GW.
Could gw stop making models and start making upgrade sprues instead for 40k? It seems more logical.
>>94856705personally I just made my own zealots, and use them as navy breachers rn
>>94856579They have to finish updating the eldar, because the moment they release codex:eldar knights (with dinos!) other eldar armies suddenly become less palatable
>>94856761Eldari are basically finished though innit? Dark eldar might need something but that’s it.
>>94856771correct, which makes exodites not too far, but still one or two editions away, so definitely a good way to go still
>>94856784At this point just post ai slop, even that is better than this crap.
What is sex with Eldar like?

>>94856572Don't forget the rak gol
>>94856802A lot of sneering and pretending they aren't cumming their brains out on superior mon'keigh cock.
does anyone like to play older editions? not to bash 10th, it just doesn't hit the spot for me.
>>94856438It reminded me that Blackstone Fortress was supposed to be new big thing, like superweapon filled with archaeotech and wonders, even men of iron got involved. In the end it turned into nothingburger.
Forgive me for being a slow poke but did they really remove subfactions with the release of 10th? Because that's sounds extremely retarded if true.
>>94856875there's no previous edition that was actually all around good like there has been one for fantasy, no
>>94856896no, they just changed the nameinstead of playing [white scars] you play [gotta go fast] detachment
>>94856896Yes they did.
>>94856917But that doesn't seem to make sense. Whats to stop any first founding or any chapter from running such a detachment themselves? An entire chapter shouldn't be defined from a detachment.
>>94856938nothing, just like how there was nothing stopping you from running your blood angels and iron hands before
>>94856938>Whats to stop any first founding or any chapter from running such a detachment themselves? nothing, you can play your marines with the playstyle you want instead of being forced into one detachment >An entire chapter shouldn't be defined from a detachment.how do you think subfraction rules worked?
>>94856945Yeah, but a detachment shouldn't be what makes a chapter a certain chapter though. Just because you're running the "gotta go fast detachment" doesn't mean you're the White scars. Its fucking stupid, I can only hope they're gonna release full codexs or comprehensive supplements for the non codex chapters.
>>94856510>post modelsAWOO
>>94856277>TQMore Storm Wings and Twilight Magisters, please
i'm sort of stuck in a paradox of choice and keep flip flopping on my choice of army to commit myself to.ideally I just want something that has a lot of models, but doesn't bog down the game with long turns Also not sure if I should use proxies, or maybe even old world models in some cases (like orc boys, 30 in a box seems decent at least), I have some of these already (AM proxies, and OW orcs) but don't know if these would pass in an actual game or not
>>94856349>>94856438>>94856458>>94856707I, and i want to believe a lot of other people, will be more than happy to see any of those factions become real, but let's be serious: This is a game made for Marine players so the chance of any of those factions, even one of them, is truly slim, if not impossible...
Some dude on twitter shared an order form and the info is fucking revealing on how big they mark up. Also the top 3 products gw sells goes from 40k, Aos, to citadel paints. NIGGAS ARE FINALLY REALIZING GW PAINTS ARE BAD LMAOOOOO
>>94856510Had some buddies over for a painting day. Got some good progress done on my hearthkyn.I need to print off one more because my fifth one broke while I was getting them ready to paint.
>>94857015so post it?
>>94856339Lost and The Damned codex.The "Lost" part covers independent human factions that aren't chaos or xenos aligned. Different forms of government gives them different abilities.The "Damned" part is about traitor guard.Worship of Chaos undivided or different specific chaos gods gives them different abilities.
>>94857015>underworlds>ahead of kill teamlmfao this mf fakest and gayest of them all
>>94857037I’m not posting the dudes twitter but his @ is wokehammer. Just know that they upcharge by a 70% rate
>>94857015I sincerely regret exclusively buying Citadel paints when I was starting out.Citadel has some great paints like their washes and that's about it. What I should have done was research on paint lines and pick the best for each paint line and avoid the stinker paints from each paint line.
>>94857000See>>94856339
>>94857047I mean underworlds is a board game. It’s really easy to play with a family. It’s one of those quiet sellers I guess.
>>94857052dude just link the post
>>94857044GW has no nuance so Severanfags would never get their meme romans who are too roman for the romans in space.
>>94857052this isn't news. anyone who has worked at an LGS or knows someone that has knows this. why do you think the guys that run a game store have the biggest armies? they buy that shit at cost.
>>94857015>revealing Are you just now realizing that GW margins are insane?
>>94857015>>94857047why are you under the impression that a list of logos is in some way arranged in order of sales?
>>94856675The 30k line has both of those in tech thralls and myrmidons.
>>94857015Now look up the prices in GW stores in countries like Poland and continue your train of thought using that data.
>>94857084This is still the only official art of chaos eldar, right?
>>94857015>things manufactured using plastic injection molding cost penniesMore at 11.
>>94856339Gonna second a Mercenary Codex as a Xeno/Chaos equivalent to Imperial Agents. Detachments are Xeno Pirates, Renegade PDF/Guard and Abhuman/Mutant Hordes.
>>94857105Yes, I like Myrmidons, and I wouldn't turn down the tech thralls but I would rather have more of a mish-mash in loadouts than their uniform ones. I wasn't trying to claim 30k didn't have models I want to use in 40k, I was just dismissing anon's assertion that what admech fans "really want" is just "robots".
>>94857073https://x.com/wokehammerLs/status/1881384923602599990I’m probably gonna get banned but fine.
>>94857132Dogs of War for 40k>freebootaz>corsairs>rogue traders>renegade marines and guard>independent necron dynasties>random aliens>votann prospectors that look like the necromunda ones
>>94857151That's not nearly how much as I expected
>>94857015surely you haven't just now realized that molded plastic doesn't cost that much to manufacture outside the moulds
>>94857077>SeveranfagsIts just one sincere guy with a single model painted and another unpainted guy from what I've seen.The sincere guy stands out to me because he I've never seen him be an asshole and even takes jabs at his precious Severan Dominate. Real weird anomaly for this part of the internet.His posting did make me eventually go on the lexicanum, check the sources and downloaded them as pdfs and read about the Dominate. I can kind of speculate on why he likes them a lot.
>>94856707>Really you could do a lot of fun stuff if GW stopped being GW.In games like Epic you actually get this kind of thing... makes me wish there was a community-run 40k ruleset that got popular enough for people to actually rally around. and then you>but what about OPR, etc. the problem is OPR is trash. it's got all 40ks problems but none of the fun fluff/crunch to redeem it. and other alt rulesets like XR change to many things to appeal to regular 40k players.
>>94857189It's the racism, isn't it?
>>94857111That's a harlequin
>>94857065Yeah I dunno if glad is the word I’m looking for here, but it’s what I feel for starting off with fanatic paints instead.
>>94857201That's an inquisitor holding a dead croneworlder by the head.
>>94857196I've never encountered a line in the book-PDFs about the Severans being racist. Got a quote and page number from the PDF?And being racist is just part and parcel for this site anyways.I've never seen the Severanautist be racist either. Generally (I mean for the most part) modelposters erven if the Severanautist is laughably lazy at painting are pretty chill dudes.
40k has been shit for a long time to be honest
>>94857214>starting off with fanatic paintsYou dodged a bullet. ArmyPainter used to be known as the discount get what you paid for shit paints. I feel that their washes and auxiliary products that aren't paints (some people don't count washes as paints either) kept them afloat. Now their paints are actually said to be really good.Also if you're using washes consider thinning them with speedpaint medium.https://youtu.be/b6cbOrVnD3Y?t=428I think other acrylic mediums would work but I don't know any other acrylic medium that can produce this kind of effect. Maybe contrast medium but that's Citadel medium.
>>94857274The best 40k has always been the version of it in your own head. James provides a wide range of material for all possible interpretations of the setting, from edgy grimderp to realistic war drama to outright comedy. You can pick and choose the parts you think are cool and just enjoy them.
>>94857052>>94857082This, my buddy who works as the oncall guy for the GW store here gets a 50% discount on all GW products, so basically he gets the price they sell it to the stores for.
>>94857274only 10 editions.I'm sure they'll get it sorted out soon. once you exhaust every possible mistake, the only remaining option is a perfect game, right?
>>94856938>But that doesn't seem to make sense.It makes perfect sense.It means you can do stuff like run an Ultramarines biker army without just being gimped White Scars.
>>94857279>sonic Sledgehammer sourceOne of the few hobby youtubers I tolerate to be honest.He introduced an anon to marine juice which introduced me to marine juice. One Fanatic Dark Tone, One Lahmian Medium, and reikland fleshshade all dumped into a 60ml container then mixed. I haven't done it yet because I don't want to buy Citadel stuff, but I feel pretty tempted.I hope AP brings back mid brown so I can follow Sonic Sledgie's ArmyPainter Marine juice recipe. Which is equal parts mid-brown-darktone-and speedpaint mediumhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NsGq_Tadbk>4:14 in the video where he confirms you can just mix all of them together.I wish I was the anon on WIP who has like 10 mid brown washes stocked up at the moment at moment. Some people say that Sepia tone is the new mid brown but it isn't. >I stole this pic from WIP
>>94857279AP speedpaint medium is amazing because it can give nearly any acrylic paint the speedpaint properties to some degree, usually needing 2 or 3:1 medium to paint.>>94857335yeah sometimes it sucks though, the guy who does the ordering for my LGS has a huge (and I mean 80k points huge) DG army and he'll gobble up a bunch of all the DG boxes that come into the store lmao
>>94856339Dark Mechanicus Or a Rouge Trader/Mercs Codex
>>94856339Tzaangor
Just ordered a Votann box. What colour scheme should I go with?
>>94857440return it and buy necromunda squats
>>94857440orange and teal
>>94857440Lime green and hot pink
>>94857440Orangeade is always popular. Have to do if dubs.
>>94857391My buddy kinda does the opposite, every once and a while he likes to fuck with the store and he will buy some random thing and then nex time the automatic orders come in the store will have extra of like random fucking modesl. He did this was imperial bastions when he ordered 12 of them, the store ended up having like 4 extra that sat on the shelves for a year or 2 before they got sent back.
>>94857391I just always dilute my washes with speedpaint medium these days. Makes the darkening of colours more subtle and less brutal on flat surfaces.
>>94857440Silver with blue accents. Sell the dwarven nature with metallics.
>>94857440I ended up going with the orange and grey color scheme on mine. I like it a lot, but your mileage may vary on that.
>>94856758so based. i wanted to do an Frateris Militia to accompany my sisters of battle but then i remembered I dont play the game enough to justify buying more models ill never use
>>94857488Checked. I approve of the idea as well.>>94857450Which is a shame because this could be good.
>>94857044I say throw in Dark Mech too to sell it. Like a callback to the older editions where they were part of the Guard lists.
>>94857440Complete Brown, the colour of shit. A fitting scheme.
>>94857509It's strange that none of the main schemes leaned into a metallic being the main color, because the models lean really well into metallics instead of the ceramic look that other power armored stuff has.
>>94857450>>94857488Silver with teal accents, then orange as a spot colour.
>>94857450>>94857467>>94857501I was thinking maybe orange and black, sort of like the Kronus Hegemony colour scheme.>>94857488On the other hand this also sounds pretty cool. Although I feel like a dark metallic blue with gold accents would look even better. Not sure if metallic blue paint exists, though.
>>94857508thanks. I've done 20 so far and I'm gonna be doing another 20 soon lmao
Reminder that your chapter can tool around the galaxy like a rogue trader without any particular territory as long as you steal munitions, recruits, and supplies from every planet you "liberate." They won't say no to an astartes because of the implication.

>>94857593>Magnus the Red looked disgusting--nipples protruding--in his gold armor before the Emperor. Very very disrespectful!
>>94857369No you don't seem to get it. Any well supplied or esteemed chapter can afford to run any formation. A chapter is not defined by its formations. Formations are not what make a chapter unique. Bring back chapter tactics, they make so much more sense.

>>94857650Absolutely not
>>94856510Played a 1k teaching game against some truly gorgeous Necrons today. His c’tan completely wiffed his first round into my heavy ints but still made it all the way to my home objective before being shot in the back of the head by my Ballistus. My flamer bus just tooled around melting the rest of his stuff in the meantime.

>>94857782Not very many unfortunately.
Are these Bolt Pistols or 1 handed bolters like some Phobos and Plaguemarines use
>>94857837pistols
>>94857837Damn, the classic color scheme really improves those. Using all HH beakie helms would improve them even further.

I have an unbuilt dark Eldar raider I was given, but I play regular craftworlds with harlequins. Is there any which way I can convert the raider into a passable “counts-as-starweaver” for my clowns to ride in
>>94857094Genuine mental retardation. That's how.

>>94857772>>94857817>>94857861Do those have actual lights in them or are they just insanely well painted?
>>94857926Are they really that bad? I guess I could run them as Cadian Shock Troops, drop the Castellan, and run the Demolisher as a tank commander?
>>94857950they dont exist anymore dude
>>94857950>>94857958It’s called Chadians
>>94856339Enslavers
Have painting techniques evolved in the past 10 years since 8th released
What's the trick to having a different scheme on your infantry and vehicles and still making it look like they're the same army?
>>94857939He said he used actual fluorescent pints.
>>94856339Chaos Daemons. GW won't fucking take my soup from me.
>>94857985decals would probably work, alternatively use a unifying color(s). there are a LOT of different things going on in my Ordo Malleus army but I keep the same reds and purity seals and energy glow through everything
>>94857985Depends on the army, but painting a shoulder pad or part of an armor panel differently as a squad marking is a nice way to add some vibrancy and easy to see squad markings to your army while still having a cohesive scheme overall.
>>94858009I like soup but demons are just straight up fucking retarded with one another. It’s like expecting space marines to have skatari as battle line, or if imperial agents had access to genestealer cults.
>>94856339Codex: Witch Hunters. I want my old army back.

>>94858081also sentinels are capped at max 2 per unit.Though you're best running them as single models units to spread out the accuracy buffs
How can a demon outbreak ruin an entire world in 40k, but fantasy can handle it like it’s another Friday?
You retards know the codex isn't out yet right?
>>94858110I like simplistic art styles like this
>>94857650Yeah, in 2026
>>94858123Demons are stronger and bigger in 40kIn fantasy/ AoS they also don't have invul saves
>>94857256True
>>94858123Fantasy is at a much higher power level than 40k, unironicallyReminder that a space marine in power armor has stats the translate 1:1 to fantasy stats because a malnourished peasant with a rake has the same stats in both.
>see amazing glowing OSL >try to replicate exactly the colors and locations>Mine turns out like a cheap ripoff compared to the smooth fading of lightIs drybrushing really so much worse than having an airbrush when it comes to osl?
>>94858170What's that from?
Do Space Marine specialists have any authority in the hierarchy? I've never seen a Chaplain, Librarian, or Techmarine as a sergeant/lieutenant/captain. Can they give orders to their brothers? Does it break chain of command?
>>94857772Oh fuck me. Night Lords.
>>94857853>if we just made them loyalist HH era guys then they'd be greatBut that's not the point.
>>94858200?
>>94858198They can be any rank, but they have their own divisions that are probably comparable. The chief librarian can give orders like any captain would and probably be obeyed unless countermanded. You average Lexicanium would probably be around sergeant level, respected specialists but usually not commanders.
>>94858032>>94858009CDs won't be killed off because then Be'lakor and Vash'torr, soul grinders and furies would be homeress.
>>94858189Drybrushing lacks the level of control necessary for believable OSL. Airbrush is not a silver bullet either, it is 100% possible to fuck up OSL with one if you're sufficiently lazy and ignorant.
>>94858123Fantasy humans are peak human, 40k humans are grown in vats like insects.
>>94858221vashtorr is gonna be the centerpiece of the dark mech
Umm... BASED POLICE? I'd like to call in a CHECK 'EM on the best weapon in the game.
>>94857650God I hope not. New models would be made in GWs shitty 3d puzzle sprue method, and all the kitbashability of the range would be dead in the wauder.
>>94858210No, I mean Night Lords lightening is shown in the art to arc around their armour, but painting it on seemed like a cheap imitation. But if I was to take a wire and paint it lightening coloured....
>>94858205But Loyalist EC are Sons of the Phoenix who do white armour with purple shoulders.
>>94858230Nice try, bucko. But you posted the wrong picture. Check these repeating digits.
>>94858220>>94858198NCOs vs. COS.
>>94858237They are proud sons of Rogal Dorn.
>>94858236Good luck anon, be the electric night.
>>94858250That's what they want the inquisition to know so they don't brand them traitors and force them to flee into the eye of terror to become actual traitors.
>>94858032Man, I just want to run my guys together. It's not that different to other armies really, it's just your different parts are different colours.
>>94858198Specialists are outside the normal chain of command, but can be given authority to lead if a mission requires their unique expertise, or assume command if the current leader is killed/missing.Obviously high ranking specialists would be highly respected veterans of the chapter and able to order random mooks around despite not having a captain/lieutenant rank.
>>94858269Silver Skulls are also sons of Gulliman, Blood Ravens are Blood Angels, and the Soul Drinkers are Imperial Fists
>>94858250Of course, Cawl, of course.
>there are 9 mantles that plague lords can take up, with one of them being 2 special>model rules for 2 (soon 3)
>>94858250Just like the covenant of fire aren't sons of lorgar and the carcharodons aren't sons of angron and the minotaurs aren't sons of perturabo
>>94858198My warlord is an Apothecary Biologis because he’s kingmaker for the next chapter master. Do what you want, they’re your guys.
I really wanna see the rules for demons in thousand sons soon.
Originally, there were 18 geneseed organs + the carapace. And 18 (active) space marine legions. Multi-geneseed chapters are confirmed already. Relictors are Dark Angels and Ultramarines. Space Sharks are Raven Guard + Night Lords. Given that receiving the geneseed causes the aspirant to look like their primarch and take on some of their traits (Night Lords having Paul Atredies future vision, for example). What would happen if you made a space marine chapter using geneseeds from all of the primarchs?
>>94858286>Blood Ravens are Blood AngelsNo. You can't be a Blood Angel successor and not have the Flaw.I would even suggest that they aren't TS successors either, considering they're not afflicted with the Flesh Change.
>>94858342Cawl already did it when he created alpha primus.
>>94858358>considering they're not afflicted with the Flesh ChangeThe short story describing them receiving the first primaris reinforcements mentions their apothecarion having some secret cages deep beneath the fortress monastery where "unfortunates" are kept.I wouldn't rule out BR still suffering from the flesh change.
>>94858193>he doesn't know
>>94858367Well they're a fleet-based chapter so they don't have a fortress monestary to begin with.
Are Deathshroud Terminators and the Deathshroud Bodyguard box the same unit?
>>94858385yes
>>94858342Extreme autism.
>>94858407I mean it's literally a plotline in the setting where Cawl tried to clone the Emperor. It's a reasonable question and there's a lore answer for it.
>>94858379I guess I misremembered that part. As an apology have the short story in question.https://imgur.com/a/CX8AoJk
sniffing eldar buttholes....
got absolutely stomped by knights tonight. they deleted my warlord quick and a bunch of tough guys with a 5+++ was tough to deal with. two armigers had 1 wound left and I couldn't seal the deal. 43-13 to the knights
>>94858342https://www.reuters.com/article/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/doctors-confirm-new-type-of-twin-born-from-one-egg-and-two-sperm-idUSKCN1QG2YG/
>>94858193Oh it's that puppet show
>>94858411>Cloning the emperorCan’t they just do the same thing they did to begin with and just have a bunch of psykers engage in an orgy until they become one person? Hell would they even know if there was a pseudo emperor on Terra?
>>94858459Sorry anon, Slaanesh has been born so the past orgy method doesn't work anymore.
>>94856313Based. Been working on this guy tonight. No idea why I decided to start painting with a unit champ, but ai’m happy so far.
>>94856339Lost and the Damned> Chaos Knights ( including new knight, and infantry support squad)> traitor guard> cultists> beastmen> dark mechNew kits would include: chaos ogryns, dark walkers with magos, dark mech infantry, chaos guard command squad, chaos vehicle upgrade sprue ( for IG tanks mainly)
>>94858441licking eldar crystal poop
I had a good painting sesh tonight, I'm getting my models to 90% completion but its so hard to take them the extra little bit to 100%
>>94858542Same. Little details and mistakes to correct, feels endless.
>>94857047Underworlds are cheaper and have some of the best minis in the marketThose witch hunters and Pirate Ogres looked so good I bought them without giving a shit about the army
>>94857837Dueling Sabres are 40k's strongest weaponsBillions of Nurgles unwashed hordes can attest to that
>>94857837These will look amazing in Flawless Host colors.
So World Eaters are the speedy melee specialists who want to get into combat as fast as possible and Emp Kids are also speedy melee specialists who want to get into combat as fast as possible
>>94858441>Have sex with an Eldar>They get too emotional about it>They explode into chunks as Slaanesh rips their soul outI don't see the appeal
>>94858633Wait till you learn about BA, BT, WS and Flesh Tearers.
>>94858633world eaters are the rushdown melee legion (based)emperor's children are the rushdown legion (faggots)
>>94858633I think traditionally Khorn wants to get into combat and stay there while Slaanesh wants to thrust back and forth in and out of combat like that terribly dirty thing you're no doubt thinking of rn
>>94857279Fanatic paints are almost as good as pro acryl with the bonus their bottles don't suck like PA. I have not tried their metallics however. I have been told their non-fanatic range is still dogshit
can emperor's children have as many daemons they want? and thus would the same be true for the rest of the chaos factions?
>>94858668We don't know till their codex gets revealed more
I need ideas for poses for two more of these iridium suits. I want these all to be running/sliding since I have a squad in the air already.
>>94858633WE are the ape players on your team that always go in and die because they want to get kills. They bitch because you don't go in with them. EC are the rat players on your team that always go in and die because they think they can pull it off. They bitch at you for not being as good a player as them.Both equally retarded but in different ways. The ape will never get better because his only goal is killing, not winning. The rat will never get better because he already thinks himself perfect and will ignore all advice and criticism.
>>94858448wheres the game matt from>>94858633Khornate units these days usually have fight on death where as slannesh has fall back and charge
>>94858668>>94858674I would assume you can hypothetically run a full Daemon army if you wish with any of them, presumably with a Detachment like they did with Kroot where they're better in it.
>>94858507Where in the lore is Eldar poop described as crystalline?
Purpleanon if you're here I saw you asking about the OG lemartes and there are two up on ebay right now for under 40 USD
>>94858700Read it in some 40k yuri once and that's canon enough for me
>>94858700Xenology, so at this point non-canon apocrypha.
>>94856510Master of Executions almost complete. I gotta decide how to paint up the severed heads and do a few touch ups, but almost there.
>>94858652I feel ya. Pro Acryl paints are great, but the bottle design seems unnecessary. They aren't gonna get rid of it for more traditional bottles though. Same reason the Citadel pots aren't going away and it has something to do with being too iconic in the marketplace.
>>94858637What if its a Dark Eldar?
>>94858205>Slaanesh icons and flayed skin all over them>Fucked up augmentations and mutationsBut yeah, basically HH marines aside those minor details.
Played 1500 SM vs my brother's necrons again. Still lost, but it was the closest game I've played yet.Ended 72-75 to secret mission because I lost track of which character was his warlord.Lokhurst heavies popped my land raider, and my gladiator reaper didn't do all that much even though only non infantry was a doomstalker.I'm still doodoo at secondaries, but I scored heavy on primary this time.
>>94858488cool
>>94858633Naa see..World Eaters:>hit things really hard>and move really quickEmperor's Children:>move really quick>and hit things really hard
>>94858700My headcanon is that it's where the crystals that eventually made soulstones comes from. The reason so much of it is still on crone worlds and such is because the entire Eldar race shat itself at once when Slaanesh came into existence and dragged them off to Hell+.
>>94858733Then pleasure is the last thing you'll be feeling.
get the FUCK in losers, we're playing City Fiight
>>94858700One of the xenology books state that Eldar shit colorless, odorless crystals. Or something crystalline like that.

>>94858813sprue goo?
>>94858820I don't have any left, I'd need to buy another pot of extra thin to make it.
New to Eldar, which of the aspect warriors are highest priority to pick up next week?
>>94858717Looking good anon, background is a cool touch
>>94858831Whichever one you'd most like to read yuri about
>>94858300I actually never put 2 and 2 together with the carcharodons.
>>94857111Nah there's this one also. But there could be a difference between 'Chaos Eldar' and 'Crone World Eldar' we don't know about. Crone World Eldar being devolved beast like creatures and not sophisticated dark chaos worshipers like chaos eldar. Or vice versa
>>94858840Are Fire Dragons girls?

>>94858862It's a mystery but I don't think they are myself. Curious what this anon thinks though.

>>94858768all aboardnext stop S0VL
Any printer bros here? I've seen the "3D printer go brrrrr" meme one too many times and a 16k resolution is coming soon.What's the reality of 3D printing a 40k army like? I primed and painted some monopoly board game pieces and found the painting aspect very relaxing. So I think this hobby is for me. I want to play Warhammer 40k now but not pay the GW tax.
>>94858768I was not ready for these nostalgic feelings, my man.
Who's the most powerful psyker in the Imperium currently? Beside the Emperor.
>>94858891Sorry homie. It just didn't work.
>>94858904As a resin printer fag, fuck you. Yes I think GW charges more than they should, but every other miniature wargame that isn't historical charges similar per mini. GW won't notice or care about your printing, but your local store will feel the impact of your buying nothing. Chips and drinks don't pay for keeping the lights on. Honestly we're in weird spot for how all of this works. On the one hand fuck corpos, but small businesses cannot survive in this era of piracy
>>94858896You might be right but they do also REEE with melee pretty good.
>>94858788
>>94858896No that's entirely a fan theory
>>94858924>but your local store will feel the impact of your buying nothing.>Chips and drinks don't pay for keeping the lights onI didn't think of it from that angle. Will paints keep the lights on at the LGS? My LGS seems to live on cardboard crack. So I should be alright, right?
>>94858924>I will preserve your obligation to pay me by shaming you rather than offering a good dealAttaboy, it's not like that strategy kills industries regularly.
>>94858941Go buy some magic cards from your lgs anon
>>94858910prolly Tigurius, possibly Mephiston
Was angron a psyker
>>94858896They can't Night Lords because they can actually fight and have been known to win.
>>94858950Yes
>>94858950yes he was an empathic psyker which is why he went so psychotically depressive even without the nails
>>94858941Depends on the store, but not really as they make maybe a buck off each paint.>>94858943I mean you are right, but this is honestly a luxury industry so the rules and functionality are different. I want the hobby to be cheaper, but how other brands price similarly and how GW really does keep manufacturing outside of China and other 3rd world countries, I'm kind of okay with paying the price and printing bits.
>>94858941Honestly I do a majority of my shopping secondhand, but I support my LGS with card games and I'll buy a box now and then. Just try to not be waste of store space, anon. People often assume just being in the store supports it, then wonder why it closed down.
>>94858950All primarchs were at least latent psykers to some degree
>>94858633in lore it's more about finesse w/ the EC, so i wonder how they'll bring that to tabletop. my guess is lots of fights first, and retreat + charge
thoughts on GW female faces?
>>94859034Generally bad, but better with good painting.They don't really focus a lot of effort into them.
>>94859034Sexy
>>94859034The 2 best looking females gw has out last year was a genestealer abomination and a literal harpie with her face covered( her feet were exposed though)
>>94859034They put helmeted heads on the sprues for a reason.
>>94858941I've had playgroups and stores die on me. Same guy as >>94858984. It's difficult to explain as socially it all ends and that's the worst part of it to me. There's more to it than people not buying things as in the case of one store, the owner was just terrible and violated labor laws because he thought he could. But at the end of the day, if a store can't make money off of something they can't support it and they deal in much smaller numbers that you do in-fact have an impact on. Not saying you need to buy every damn thing GW puts out, but that if you want a place to exist where you can play, you need to contribute to it financially because if they can't make ends meet, it ends and we're in a critical point of a death of 3rd places for people to show up to to socialize. Hobbies like this are perfect for it and should survive. But we all need somewhere to play and inviting someone you don't know to your garage triggers concern for everyone, so a neutral place to play is essential. The only way to have that place is to financially contribute. That being said TCGs make more money that our plastic crack could ever could, but still buy what you can, encourage others do the same, maybe even encourage the store to have a resale market as ebay is fucked for this hobby. A lower price to entry helps everyone and piles of shame can be reduced that way
>>94859034They're completely fine, retards here just can't paint.
>>94859086post your painted female faces
>>94858704Thanks for the heads up, anon. I'll be sure to pick him up. The auction is in the EU too so I won't have to bother with customs which is even better. Really appreciate it.
>>94859087
>>94859034They look like male faces.
>>94859107
>>94856510pic related is my very first paintjob. I only had a rather big brush so details are bit meh but I actually liked how it turned out
>>94859107but you didn't paint that
>>94859130>>94856510forgot pic :(
>>94859137not bad at all for a first time painting, coats are smooth and no details are really clogged up and paint all where it's supposed to be other than a little overspilling with the eyes but they're hard to paint even with plenty of practice and a tiny brush
would putting marine skulls nailed on the backs/packs of my bangel successors and fluffing it up as former brothers who'd fallen to the black rage and had to be put down after their last battles then getting honored by getting to continue "fighting" with the chapter be too donut steel-y
>>94859086you haven't painted a single female face on a miniature in your entire life
>>94859167No, sounds metal, do it.
>waiting for exodites kill team
>>94859167No orange and tealfag I like this fluff you came up with to excuse those skulls you put on your dudes
>>94859182Wrong thread, slopper.
The infiltrator, guerrilla, and melee aspect is already covered by Kroot. I think the Gue'vesa niche should be mass, rapid-strike, mechanized formations with cheap APC and transports, that aim to achieve superiority local through numbers and ground mobility rather than quality.
>>94859308The only use gue'la have is kauyon bait.
>>94859308>yet another faction getting access to cheap IG trashhow about no
>>94859184>poopfartschizo XDI wish you death in most painful circumstances possible
What paints/colors are these guys does anyone have any idea
>>94859308Really I don't think Gue'vesa should be fast. Tau have a lot of that in battlesuits and the devilfish; I think they're best as a budget tarpit option that shoots at close to medium range. If they were going to be Tau specific instead of being a mercenary or rebel profile, I'd give them pretty bad shooting but have them spot what they shoot at if it's close enough.>>94859353What, the Guard are the only faction with massed budget shooters now?
>>94859308Imagine if tau players actually liked tau.
>>94859357It's pretty clearly him talking about the sword brethren kitbashes he just didSorry you think every mention of a regular is your zoomer shitpost
>>94859363>What, the Guard are the only faction with massed budget shooters now?If Tau were allowed to take hoomans this is the form this would take.If you think they'd specifically make new human models for them you're delusional.
>>94859308>mass, rapid-strike, mechanized formations with cheap APC and transportsyou mean firewarriors in devilfish? their old iconic unit before the battlesuit autism got out of hand?
>>94859363What about eldar guardians or traitor guardsmen?
We need some Sslyth units
>>94859034They're not as bad as people meme about when painted well. The eavy metal team paints them terribly
>>94859382Nah I'm right about everything ever, but in this case you're right too. GW has had a lot of opportunities to "blood brothers" in human traitors and hasn't bothered. So either there's something wrong with giving them guard infantry (which may have been related to squatting 'generic' infantry), they're worried guardsman on Tau would cannibalize Kroot sales, they really just fucking hate Tau or they don't want to stomp around in design space for Xeno/Chaos allies, which shitty mercenaries would fit neatly into.>>94859401I'm back where I started earlier in the thread: a Xeno/Chaos agents codex would be nice for this.
>>94859360Looks like there's some green in there, brown too
>>94859402Court of the archon in plastic
>>94858910mephiston easily
>>94859420God the Lhaemean will be butchered
>>94858904Yes, you can even find scans of actual Games Workshop models and basically pirate minis. But there's also hundreds of proxies available made specifically to be Warhammer replacements in case you want to pick your own. Scans are harder to find for obvious reasons anyways>>94858924Shut up homo
>>94859308I wonder if the Gue'vesa would use devilfishes or their own APC, and in the later case if it would be tracked or hover.
>>94859094Cheers, wanted to grab one myself since I've got the other two versions and when I saw there were actually some decent listings right now I remembered you saying you were having trouble finding one a while back
>come back from break>no longer feel passionate for any army and don't know what to work on
Is the reason that Astorath and Mephiston have the weird muscles armor because of this movie?
>>94859479it's a big part of it yeah
>>94859360Citadel app has a color detector from image.You can get metal like this from mixing metallic and dark brown. Green looks like a gradient starting from warpstone glow. Rust is skrag brown.
>>94859479I find it wild how this movie have so many plot points and characters straight from the book that appear in no other adaptations, except for a 77s BBC's one, yet it changes the core of the story by making Dracula sympathetic monster.
>>94859494I thinks it's OK. That's what adaptions are for, to offer a unique spin.
>>94856277>Which lesser-known successor chapters deserve more attention in the lore?Relictors

I superglued magnets under the bases and waiting for them to try.Need to figure out how to prime them for Vallejo & Citadel sprays are unavailable locally and I don't have space for an airbrush. I was wondering if a regular acrylic spray can of matt black would be alright to use.
>>94859457Pick one model that you want to paint the most, and use a scheme/method you're excited to try. Don't think about what you'd need to do to apply that to an entire army, just think about that one model. once you finish you can look at the parts you found fun, and the part that you didn't enjoy, and pick your next project based on that
>>94859137this isn't bad at all for a first paintjob, if you're looking for a nice wash for yellow I'd check out the new seraphim sepia
>>94859457i read lore to feel passionate. or play a 40k videogame. space marines 2 gave me some motivation to paint again.

>>94859821>gigantic mold line across helmet
>>94859825So what?
>>94859034when you don't over exaggerate laugh lines like they do in pic related they can look great
>>94859825dunning kruegar post
>>94859825not mine I just grabbed it from Google m8
>>94859649clean your filthy mold lines
>>94859825just the helmet?
>>94859846i dont read any of your stupid posts i just at the pretty pictures ok
>>94859034Why GW is incapable of make female faces?
removing mold lines is a meme and a crutch for shitty painters
>>94859873talked like a true hobbylet.
>>94859873magnetizing is a meme and a crutch for poors
do we still have books mega?
>>94859865why does she have a giant mold line across her face
>>94859844>kruegar
>>94859775excuse me you're not mewtf>>94859788>>94859817I'm doing either bad moonz or deffskullz
>>94859847Yeah all in due courseI'm still waiting on an order of bitz coz the stupid kits only give you one rocket arm per box
>>94859888>deffskullzblue orks keep comin
Thoughts on the benefictus? Thinking of dropping 20 europoors just for that lethal hits in a unit of 20 Neophytes sounds good plus her own lascannon.
>>94859900I wouldn't buy ugly models
>>94859904why are you in a wh40k general then
>>94859900why is she standing so close to the edge of the base its bothering me so much
>>94859906
>>94859900If you do buy it please place the centre of mass over the centre of the base
>>94859907>>94859926I just searched it on google and found this on leddit, guy said he put the stones on the base first and had to place it. Paintjob looks really good but the retarded positioning really takes away from it.
>>94859936lol thats funny, the guy really didn't think of making a new base or scraping that stuff off with clippers/knife?
>eldar release this week>nobody talking about it, Slaaneshi Marines stealing the spotlight she who thirsts won again...
>>94859969We knew this was goint to happen the moment Fulgrim got revealed for Christmas. Eldar are literally a filler release that's going to be forgotten by the time they hit shelves. Nobody gives a fuck about shitty space elves.
>>94859969eldar literally has 0 fansas in noneas in nullas in no one at all likes eldar whatsoever for any reason
>>94859146>>94859642thanks, needed to hear thisseeing only super professional paintjobs and anons shitting on everything not A grade makes me feel like I'm just bad at painting
>>94859969Eldar never get discount boxes so you have to buy every overpriced aspect separately. It hurts.Like it's 5 tiny dudes spread out over 3 tiny sprues and they charge premium prices.
>>9485996990% of the posts talking about slaanesh seems to be about what a second wave should contain, or how this or that other faction is actually worse or less popularit's a very underwhelming reaction, feels very forced too, especially when the slaaneshi people in the thread aren't that many to begin with
>>94859982>Eldar never get discount boxesThis was the funniest thingThe scant Eldar talk that did happen vanished the moment GW revealed there was no army box or new combat patrol.
>>94859987There is a new combat patrol coming, but first they have to milk people of the individual releases with their inflated prices.
>>94859969Eldar is so unpopular since the Yvraine fiasco... Is crazy how low the only race that could put a fight against the Marine dominance shit has fallen.
>>94859987>no army boxall the models announced for them are elite units and special characters what army box could have they made with those that can actually be used to form the core of an army and isn't just a blanket discount on all the new products?
>>94859479Mephiston was quite literally Dracula, even had rules that after killing someone he had to do LD test or he can't do anything because he's drinking blood.Astorath was created in 5th ed so I guess designers decided it just looks cool.
>>94860005Biel tan niggaOn that note, dire avengers should be updated
>>94859883she fell into a doorknob
>>94860008It was an actual question, tell me the army box you wanted:you can put 4 units and one hero in the army box, all of them must be brand new models, at least one of the units must be repeated twice, you can't put the totality of the newly releasing units in the boxYou're stuck with one phoenix lord accompanied by 2 units of spiders (because there's usually an overlap with the following combat patrol, and that one has one unit of spiders) and either 2 units of hawks or 2 units of dragons do you really think this would have been a good box?
>>94859999Having Ynnari is one thing, roping every named character into it and outright blowing up popular craftworlds like biel tan is a whole other thing.
>>94860007I don't understand what's going on with his hand?is he wiping blood from his mouth? or just scowling in a contemplative manner?
>>94859873>>94859877anons will yell at me for this but you are both correct actually
>>94860026>is he wiping blood from his mouth? This.
>>94860022Yes, because I don't fall for the noob trap of thinking a box has to be playable.
>>94859999Souping Clowns was a sin
>>94860035clowns cannot be an army of their own and they aren't enough to fill an agents of the eldar book until corsairs and exodites are released
>>94860022They should make a christmas boxset that's just the court of the young king, avatar of khaine, every phoenix lord and a webway gate
>>94858739good job anonhope you get some pictures next game
>>94860041>clowns cannot be an army of their ownExcept that they literally were for a while.
>>94860060Cort of the Young King is bunch of exarchs and Avatar of Khaine(Young King is exarch killed by Avatar), not Phoenix Lord.It's also unique to Biel-Tan because they are military nutjob race war now Craftworld who have enough Exarchs to throw dance part for avatar, instead of leading their own units.
>>94859999>the Yvraine fiascowhat?seriously, I don't follow Eldar lore outside the guilliman memes, please tell me what this fiasco was
>>94860089the character of Yvraine
>>94860089I find it hard to believe anyone actually doesn't know about the vapid hole that is Yvraine and her lore at this point because Eldar fans will NEVER shut up about it.
>>94860096>>94860103I'm gonna be honest other than her helping belisarius bring girlyman back I haven't read anything else about herand I won't pick up an eldar book to learn more about her, don't really care about her as a character, I just assumed you were talking about some specific incident when you said "the Yvraine fiasco"
>>94859900Mine did pretty well last time, lethal hits on 20 Neophytes is great. Too bad you can't use her along the Primus, but that would probably be overkill.And there's always the stratagem for 5+ crits.
>>94860119lurk moar
>>94860089>>94860119To put it in more detail;Outside of the memes, Yvraine is a fucking awful character who's an unlikeable cunt (which admittedly is fitting considering she's a literal Wych), but due to the rush to have her written every other Eldar character in existence bows down to her as if she's the next coming of Christ. The only exceptions to this are Vect, who is now a background character and was likely going to be killed off, and Drazhar, who is just a merc. Every Phoenix Lord, Seer, and Corsair bowed before Yvraine and took orders from her.And then her plotline got aborted, and because every Eldar plot was now tied to her EVERYTHING got aborted with hers.Eldar gave literally had no story involvement since the Ynnari stuff ended, outside of a minor blurb in Arks of Omen where they showed up to give Coteaz a vague and cryptic warning.
Bros. My LGS is no longer sell pro acryl paints just after I found the perfect colours for my guard army. They are Dark Yellow Green and Dark Green Brown.I need to find the closest AP equivalent to them or else if I want refills I'll have to order online and get fucked by shipping.I can't seem to find a close enough ArmyPainter colour to Dark Green Brown. Any suggestions from that paint line as I'm gonna lose it.
>>94860146learn to mix colors you are self lil nigga
>>94859969I will buy all the new aspects to paint
>>94860146Order online, how is this a big deal?
>>94860060>GW makes the box set>but it's MtO and comes with the old 2e phoenix lords and avatar>costs as much as if all the character models were bought separate
>>94860144How can a multinational company fucked up this much with something that was almost universally popular and hyped so much is something i wonder till today.
NEW THREAD>>94860175>>94860175>>94860175
>>94860151I wanna keep my guard army uniform in color. Mixing will just mean inconsistency. >>94860168I live in Canada and for the most part if I want to order something it is 10 dollars shipping. Pro Acryl paints are already Citadel tier expensive enough, but then with 10 dollar shipping just makes things ridiculous. Also I'm worried that a trade war between USA and Canada might mean that some how Pro Acryl paints will no longer be sold in Canada somehow.
>>94860179I also ask the same thing about star wars and game of thrones and several other cultural juggernauts that managed to piss away all their relevance.
>>94859969I'm waiting for saturday, when the review embargo drops and we get to look at the new rules.
>>94860181>Mixing will just mean inconsistencythen just make a recipe that you can consistently replicate
>>94859107she loos better as a fuckable anime character
>>94860173
>>94860198I'm just gonna look for the closest AP paint to Steel Legion drab as it looks pretty similar to Pro Acryl's dark green brown
>>94856579Eldar and deldar are the least popular factions in the game
>>94860181Just wait till trump tariffs make warhammer 25% more expensive for yanks lol
>>94860227That's votann
>>94856510Got 3rd platoon presentable. Time for finish my horses.
>>94860022>you can put 4 units and one hero in the army box, all of them must be brand new modelsTell that to blood angels lmao.>You're stuck with one phoenix lord accompanied by 2 units of spiders (because there's usually an overlap with the following combat patrol, and that one has one unit of spiders) and either 2 units of hawks or 2 units of dragonsAgain, Blood Angels box had 2 characters, so you could have:Fuegan, Spidermom, 2x5 Fire Dragons, 2x5 Warp Spidersor the equivalent with another aspect.>do you really think this would have been a good box?Yes
>>94860233Tell that to the destinyfags who obsess over it.
>>94860089
>>94858448Brother get some more terrain. There should be enough on the board that both sides can hide almost entirely out of LOS at deployment.
>>94859015It's funny how GW considers FF a finesse option in the thin smear of flavour over 10ths rules, when it really couldn't be further from it.
>>94859408They don't want people converting. There's a whole class of middle managers at GW who have everything in neat little boxes they track with their graphs n shit. It's why all the Horus heresy gear got culled from 10th...people were buying heresy kits for 40k and it was over representing heresy sales.
>>94860446"Finesse" as a concept doesn't really translate into the scale 40k operates. But it's always been represented as high initiative and fast movement.
Does anyone know what happened to the GWSG Specialist Games Thread? Someone in the last thread said it had reached it's bump limit.Forgive my ignorance, but I don't know what that means.
>>94858686don't know, it's the store's.
>>94857084What's in the book that's so important he's lugging it around in such a dire situation?
>>94863151The Book of Fates.
>>94857084>eldarThat looks more like the guy from Vulkan lives. the assassin dude that used the shuriken pistols that worked for the cabal.
>all those fucking hooves in the EC range refreshfucking why
>>94863230Because people noticed the tacticool rocks that they put on every fucking model, so they just turned the rocks into cloven hooves.
