Four points right two points up. 40k should have more emphasis on guns over melee while still having melee as a viable option, and I think less hordes means less blobs to move around and more action happening.

The tariffs imposed unilaterally by the executive branch were declared illegal the other day.

I know it's gonna sound retarded, but some warhammer kits are actually not a bad investment.
I don't mean "buy 10,000 boxes and stick them in your garage", but if you've got some spare money, buy some popular kits and just hold onto them for about 5/10 years or so.
Chances are the prices of those kits will have jumped so much in ten years than even if you sell at a discount, you'll be getting profit.

Now this won't double or triple your money or anything like that, but getting a solid 30-40% markup isn't out of the question, especially if some of those kits go OOP and then you can fleece grogs. Moreover, if they do 'unique' models in starter boxes every edition, you can hold onto those until people pay out big for them.

Here's the secret, anon. Laws only exist if they are enforced, but certainly exist if they are enforced without any paper behind them.

The current regime's leader has the "No one will stop me" loophole buff that lets him to what he wants. His political opposition is either few or too cowardly to get in his way. If Big Mac Deal Don wants to do something, he will brute-force it through. The courts can say what they want, he'll find a way to fuck them up
>>
>>96432229
that way of thinking is the source of the scalper bubble in ebay and other places.

I bough a complete RT land raider around 2017 for 60 eurobucks and I thoung I was overpaying. Nowadays it would be 3x or more that. It's a bubble and as a collector I hope it crashes, hardly.

It's been discontinued, but if you can find a box, consider grabbing the SCE paladin kit. It's got like fifteen heads in it, five heads for three different unit builds. And at least most of them have the impassive masks + transverse crests. Plus you might be able to use the weapons and armor for kitbashing to make the SGs look more relic-y.

Anon, since 3D printing exists and becoming more common by the year those kits will be practically worthless in 5-10 years.
In the past this type of kit hoarding was somewhat profitable only because the common man couldn't easily recreate GW sculpts and other shit.

I'll be honest though, I'm pretty good at cleaning up models and those look very easy to clean.

original minis will always sell for more money, and actual 1:1 copies of GW stuff are not common at all.

It will always be more convenient to simply buy the models, even if it's more expensive, just as people tend to spend more money if they are guaranteed a consistent product. Yes, 3D Printing has it's uses, but it's not going to be 'replacing' traditional models any time soon.

the fatcast stuff was just a lot more cartoony, and the armor seemed more like power armor, while the new stuff has more buckles and straps that actually feel like platemail knights armor, as well as more things like furs, chainmail, and chains to make them a bit grittier.

another nuance thats not as easy to tell from the photos is that the plates themselves like the pauldrons are thinner as far as material depth, which makes it more like a sheet of shaped metal and less like a thick soggy doughnut of plastic

It's always been this way. Most guys play the same army for years so they're not that impacted. You paint a few units each year. Your roster will just keep changing for years. Buying the newer releases, new characters for that faction, redoing squads with modern bitz. Most books are outdated immediately. I wasted money on the Iron Hands codex supplement.

It was Helbrute, in the army where literally the ENTIRE combo is reliant on the Helbrute. Like, the army quite literally does not function without the Helbrute. The single most important model in the army was just "conveniently" not in the list.

The fat sigmarines were actually interesting.
The issue was that it wasn't warhammer fantasy battles, but if you forget that part, the fat ones actually tried to be something.

They weren't WFB, but they were warhammer. If twenty years ago you showed me the two I'd have believed the first was warhammer, the one on the right I'd have called you insane.

Nah the guy I played against was super chill, would play against in the future. For the first time I ran two units of 20 Neophytes, one with a Primus to act as a regular death star and one with Acolyte Iconward to give the unit 5+ FNP and just parked on the center objective. Iconward didn't do a thing, as all the weapons I faced were 2dmg each but it took a lot of effort to get rid of 20 guys and with OC2 each they held unto that objective till the end.
I also brought 20 Neophytes + Primus via Rapid Ingress and placed them behind the Iconward's blob. I was able to kill a few Custodian Guard when they declared charge into the other squad and even though I hit on 6s only, having lethal hits, sustained hits and rerolling everything did some, and they did the same in the next turn. I didn't know about this strategy until very recently, only brought them on my turn to do damage. I was super lucky with the Acolytes to give me an extra CP each round.

I know most of you don't actually play 40k and are /v/ secondaries but for the few that actually play how viable are beast snaggas on their own?

My flgs for sale board had some cheap and for £40 i got some clown painted models to strip:
>20 beast snagga boyz
>1 units of squig hog riders
>beast boss
>beast boss on squighog
>runtherder
>painboss

I dont care for the other orks but like their aesthetic. a couple more boyz and riders units plus a rig seems viable in a vacuum but how do they deal with modern shit? i remember 4 years back when they released they were sold as rush in anti armor after all the orkmaris panic died down but havent kept up.

it's the cheapest thing they can produce which they can sell for the highest price, and they have normalised limited runs for them to get in fomo.

best/worst thing is that every time they interview a new potential sculptor to hire, they get to ask them to sculpt a model, usually a hero, and they keep the rights to the sculpt even if they don't hire the sculptor in the end.

Hey guys, hope you're all having a nice friday.
The last weekend of august is here and we're fast approaching the deadline. Best of luck to those of you still hard at work on your character, I know you can do it. If you've finished your character model you can submit it here by replying to my post. As always I'll look through the archive too but this is the best way to not get missed. Deadline is midnight the 31st est.
Here is the vote for next month's collage:
https://strawpoll.com/kogjRWDxqg6
There has been some complaints and suggestions about the september vote. Kitbashed character is in the lead to win and some are feeling that it's too close to the current theme and that it should be vetoed for the runner up. I don't like to take decisions like this since I feel the decision should be with the thread but I think I've found a solution that works. I'll change the "kitbashed character" option to a more open kitbash theme where you can submit anything kitbashed. That way the people who wanted to kitbash a character can still do so while those wanting something more fresh also get their way. Feel free to share your thoughts on this, thanks guys.

Nobody at all likes NuHammer art, you dumb fag. Old art still drives the setting.

The "fleshed-out lore" is garbage. GW is run by morons who don't understand the problem of over-exposition. All plot advancemnets have downgraded the setting, and are all zero-stakes bullshit meant to push (crappy) new model lines.

>Better Rules system with extreme variety for each faction
The rules have been getting worse ever edition since 4th. "Extreme variety for each faction" is bloat that does not contribute to improved gameplay.

Modern 40k is irredeemable.

There's whole generations that do not see instantly that shit as wrong because they have no concept of the physical world.

Stuff like Star Wars being lauded originally for its "lived universe" only to all become shiny green screen shit with the prequels, and animeslop with the sequels. Same for Jurassic Park. Or Terminator, etc

It doesn't matter how young or old someone is. If they recognize old 40k was superior, they're good. If they know NuHammer is untouchable shit, and despise GW, they're good. If anyone thinks modern 40k is good, they should know that everyone can still see their 5-o-clock shadow, and isn't fooled at all.

Vehicles that could not physically operate (turrets that couldn't rotate, wheels that couldn't turn, orc helicopters that use rotors to make melee attacks) are a good place to start.

Correct, I have never collected Marines. That's besides the point, because they are still an integral part of the setting. (Real) Marines may have been "viable," but that's also irrelevant; the problem was that Primaris were created at all.

Can you apply airbrush varnish with a brush? Vallejo's 60ml Polyurethane Varnish (26.652) is slightly more expensive than the 18ml bottle (70.522). I got some hazard stripe decals from a friend but the instructions suggest to apply it on a surface that is varnished, then do another coat of varnish afterwards.
I do happen to have some varnish in a spray can that I can use as well, if that's going to work.

This, aspect warriors are not just using specific weapons, a guardian with a fusion gun isn't a fire dragon.

so did IG and lasgun hordes, that doesn't mean SM designers were thinking about eldar at all.
They were thinking about streamlining playing big units with the clunky 40k rulese at the same time they wanted OP units. That's also why the Repulsor had so many stupid guns: it was designed with 3-7th facings and AV in mind.

Of course. That'd be a valid light vehicle (I've used parts from civiliam model kits to modify Ork vehicles).

And at the same time, an Ork helicopter that uses its rotor blades as a melee weapon is stupid. These are not equivalent, and "iT's FiCtiOn!" isn't an excuse.

>>96433350
The new Avatar of Khaine model is *technically* better. The design is no better (but no worse, either, I still like the look). The new one is too big, however, because GW can't exercise restraint. The Avatar's power doesn't come from its physical size. Ideally, it should be about midway between the old and the new.

Kaldor Draigo
Huron Blackheart
Prince Yriel
Kaptin Badrukk
Leman Russ
With Vashtorr's help, Huron successfully enters the Webway with his Blackstone Fortress. This sends a ripple effect which creates new, unnatural entrances into the Webway throughout the galaxy, while also allowing the Warp to leak into the Webway more as old sealed off passages are re-opened. This allows Badrukk and Draigo to enter respectively, while Yriel amasses several Corsair fleets to enter the Webway to destroy the Freebooters and Red Corsairs.
As the conflict escalates, Russ himself appears and assists Draigo and Yriel with destroying Huron's blackstone fortress. Draigo returns to the Warp and Russ remains with Iyanden's forces as a 'guest', with the implication of him and Yriel having gay sex.

Are you angry about the concept or about the rules? because the rules already balances their durability, firepower and mobility just fine and conceptually they already wear lighter armor and have lesser jump packs that visually mark them out as less mobile and less armoured than other flying units.

You're mad about the unit because it's relatively new, thus bad, and working backwards to justify your knee jerk reaction.

That's not how orks work, they keep on trucking even when their stuff should reasonably fall apart and their stuff is exceptionally effective even when it seems like standard slabs of metal.
Your argument is so absurd you would have orks not exist in the setting at all because you substituted the setting's internal logic with your biases that miss the point of the setting dramatically.

No, it was because the game was simpler and the model could fight exclusively with what they had in hand.
The unit type did get "impact hits" in a way at points.
And just because rules didn't implement such a thing it doesn't mean it didn't happen, do you think noone of the stormboys explode with their rocket jump packs? despite it being almost suicidal and impractical?

no, it's because orks make it sturdy enough to withstand impacts, and the engines efficient enough to provide lift despite the weight and visibly unreasonable proportions.
Just like they have melee weapons capable of opening power armors.

There is nothing about the "simpler older design"* which would have precluded Koptas having a rotor melee attack.

Old GW designers (the founding staff) had a background in historical wargames, history, and literature. Nu designers know about Warhammer. They don't read at all, or if they do, it's genre-fiction/Black Library trash. Their outside inspirations are superhero movies and video games. They are beardo soijak faggots. The old designers were smarter, more sensible, and most of all, less under the boot of the business side of the company.

Yes it would, it would have required atypical special rules that work specifically outside the framework provided by the unit profile and the precedents of the unit type.

Your black box quote doesn't make a single valid point, you're arbitrarily choosing to ignore what orks are shown to be capable of and are instead forcing your biases for what should be "realistic" for them.
But your bias would eventually write orks as they are almost entirely out of the setting, because you don't actually get the setting.

A helicopter that strikes a solid object with a rotor blade is going to crash. No amount of in-setting, space-copter magical Ork tech can plausibly change that. This is beyond what is established as possible or plausible insetting, and does not deprive Orks of anything, *because the precedent was already there in earlier editions written by non-retards*.

yet the orks' do both, because they're not normal helicopters, the orks build them differently.

if you think it's not realistic it's, again, because you're choosing to ignore what orks are shown to be capable of and are instead forcing your biases for what should be "realistic" for them.

>>96435024
Exactly, a landspeeder is a lightweight vehicle very different from a battle tank or armored transport. Even then, grav-tech is difficult enough that it's only available to Marines, and not Guardsmen, even though it would be extremely useful.

This illustrates in-setting Imperium technological limitations, instead of "it exists in one form, therefore it can exist in any.

The imperium uses anti grav at all levels. It's limitations are political and theological, not a matter of engineering. That's why the Admech has lots of Duneriders, but it's stingy about SM getting jetbikes. Even if necromunda gangbangers have to issue getting their hands on them.

Thunderhawks and other flyers also use anti grav tech. It't a basic trope of the genre.

>>96435123
The AdMech make the tech, so it's natural they'd try to keep things for themselves, but it's also challenging enough to produce that everyone else rides on wheels/treads. This wasn't common during the Crusade period, either, despite the obvious advantages of hover vehicles. The Necromunda jetbikes were clearly a mistake, or else you'd see them more often among armed forces instead of impoverished street gangs. 40k Imperial aircraft are goofy, but operating on separate logic.

You're mistaking decisions done to visually separate ranges with logical decisions about the settings' internal workings.

Do you think the lack of miniatures for regiments other than cadian, catachan and krieg means the other regiments don't exist or are rarer? Or that they are all identical in the tools they use and ways they operate?

RT gave a whole menu of possible options, this doen't mean all options are meant to be combined. Also, a jump pack isn't flight, it is jumping from spot to spot, not using heavy weapons mid-air. They didn't have flying marine squads with autocannons. Pic related, the 3rd ed. Codex formalized everything. Havocs can take limited autocannons, no jump packs.

No shit they have jet packs. The boots were a 8th ed. asspull. A guy in heavy power armor, using a weapon heavier than himself while balancing on grav boots is dumb because it contradicts the limitations of the capabilities of grav tech already established. To say nothing of staying balanced while doing so.

>decisions done to visually separate ranges with logical decisions about the settings' internal workings.
The two are intertwined. The need to establish different model ranges informs the setting's internal workings. This doesn't mean the property rights holder can't come out at any time and make retroactive claims, but doing so undermines the integrity of the setting.

Obviously there are other Regiments, but that is different from established IG Regiments not being depicted with grav vehicles or having grav vehicles available in-game. (rare exceptions not disproving the rule aside). Grav-tech is rare and limited, and does not scale up easily from small objects (like servo skulls, which are comparatively simple to produce).

That's the definition of "inceptor"; also, it can mean someone beginning a master of the arts degree. The Primaris names are all dumb, legal department constructs. An "intercessor" is someone who offers prayers on others' behalf. "Devastators" is actually an appropriately descriptive name.

- The bikes can at least sort of turn by leaning (the shooing would be terrible; whoever designed them has never ridden a motorcycle)
- Other jump pack marines aren't wearing extra-clunky boots and carrying an autocannon
- A land speeder is nowhere as massive as a tank
- Marines don't use sentinels, and don't utilize neural interfacing (not reflected in game terms, but many things aren't)

>The bikes can at least sort of turn by leaning
Not with those wheels, they can't
>Other jump pack marines aren't wearing extra-clunky boots and carrying an autocannon
All marines are wearing already excessively clunky boots and the thread demonstrated power armors with jump packs and autocannons had a precedent.
>A land speeder is nowhere as massive as a tank
Strap them together and suddenly they are
>Marines don't use sentinels
and now they do, but call them warsuits

>>96435794
>Not with those wheels, they can't
No mistake, it'd be rough. Ground clearance on the sides could be a bigger problem, though.
>All marines are wearing already excessively clunky boots and the thread demonstrated power armors with jump packs and autocannons had a precedent.
Boots which are already clunky, but not made extra clunky with gear that no infantryman would ever want to wear. Rogue Trader/Slaves to Darkness doesn't have a precedent for autocannon jump packs; it has a boatload of options which players were assumed to jusstify because RT wasn't about holding players' hands. There were no corresponding model kits for what you're claiming.
>Strap them together and suddenly they are
You'd need several. The fact that until 2017, nobody outside of the AdMech or Custodes had grav tanks shows the concept is prohibitive.
>and now they do, but call them warsuits
Warsuits aren't sentinels, but yes, sentinels demonstrate that walker vehicles are relatively commonplace. If there is an up-scaled walker that can replicate the neural interfacing of a Dreadnought, then the warsuit trivializes Dreads.

turns out marine chapters have several of land speeders

>Warsuits aren't sentinels

>>
>>96435908
>irrelevant, they're already excessively clunky, the extra clunkiness doesn't tip the scale from where it already was
It does. "Extra clunky" by necessity makes something clunkier.

>yes, it does, the option is there, black on white.
It isn't.

In 2e/Slaves to Darkness, Devastators aren't given autocannons as an option (like that anon claimed with his blurry picture), but do have heavy weapon options. Regardless, an autocannon is classed as a move-or-fire weapon. Jump packs and move-or-fire weapons cannot be used in the same turn, so it's not something that would be used, because it'd be a shit combo. By 3rd edition, the combination possibility was removed entirely.

This is not the same as modern meme-Marines.

>turns out marine chapters have several of land speeders
"Several" as in more than two landsppeder to equal the mass of a tank of armored transport. See the rest of the post.
>>
>>96436054
>It does.
It doesn't, it was already too clunky already.

>This is not the same as modern meme-Marines
modern rules for heavy weapons are different, making your point irrelevant

>"Several" as in more than two
several as in as many as the plot demands, land speeders aren't all ancient revered relics, they're tech that gets produced and for which they have stl for
the rest of your post assumes the lack of models proves an absence in the fluff and that the absence is a proof of it being technologically impossible, but that's silly and absurd, traditionalism is more than enough of an explanation for the lack of significant production of tank designs that aren't based on older STL
>>
>>96436101
The Point:

Jump pack + autocannon equipped Devastators were not an option in 3rd edition, and a completely non-viable option in 2nd. They were never "there all along."
