I'll let it slide this time but you could at least have made the thread relevant to the latest news since knights are finally getting released and Imperial Fists and Raven Guard probably getting new detachments next week with their combat patrols and characters.

Preorder will go live Saturday morning. Usually by that point international shipping has already concluded so they know the quantity of orders they can process in each region. This is always when leaks begin as distribution centers start moving stock early to stores and partners that receive guaranteed stock regardless of preorder numbers. And people just causally break the sale embargoes. Official release will be one week after the preorders but lots of stores will receive their copies early depending on shipping limitations and how early they need to start offloading them.

The Questoris-class knights are fine. I like them (the melee weapon arm's lack of sufficient articulation is goofy, but eh).

I know it's not active worship but surely committing excess torture to in order to sate slaanesh and release the grip on their souls is empowering the god.

Everything an Eldar does feeds Slaanesh. It doesn't matter what they do. The only winning move is not to play. To reject the self. Craftworlds hide most of it in infinity circuits and spirit stones, but Slaanesh will have them all eventually anyway. Drukhari at least hide most of it away in the Webway where chaos cannot feed on their souls as readily as in Realspace.

More than likely anime garage kits.

I'm doing a Tiny Legend order because he's got a sale going on right now and because shipping might get fucked in the future (He had it down for US shipping a few days ago but it's back now). Most of the order is to make a second Kasrkin/Grenadiers squad, but what style head should I go for when I want to kitbash some Castellans to lead them? Top Left is the standard head the Kasrkinadiers will have for reference.

It takes a long fucking time for shit to ship, because you are essentially hiring freelance casters working out of their sheds.

Dig through the clearance section. Some of the prepainted stuff is stupid expensive but often times some cheaper kits find their way into the clearance section and get enough for a run. You also won't tend to wait as long as grabbing a pre-order figure, sometimes the production time cam be months and it can occasionally take up to a year for them to build up enough orders to do a run for less popular sculpts

Asking again since it got lost in the Decalshitter spam, which head style do I go with? Kinda wanna do the top right since it feels kinda Commissar-like, but the bottom ones with the head crests give off that Death Korps Marshal look.

Top middle might be your best bet.
Commissar look, not too overly detailed to make you want to slam your head against the desk.
But if you're up for the challenge go for the wreath eagle crested helmet.

It was very funny how easily we tore one another to pieces, it was pussyfooting around the first round then a massive bloodbath for the rest.

>>96441338
Allows you to give them different personalities, which is very cool.
You have a chest pushed forward and a chest leaning a tad back.
For the arms the right one can be straight forward (shooting/pointing) or cocked upright (holding pistol up), while the left can either be straight down or raised.

so you could have one guy ordering troops forward, another standing proudly over the battlefield, another defending himself, etc.

I wonder how compatible it is with the SoB rhino since it uses the old rhino as a base.

>>96441370
>why is extra armor not a thing
not a thing *anymore
Because 40k isn't a wargame anymore, most people think historicals is retarded and the miniatures are just game pieces to play the game, and people play to win, that's how people have fun.

In short: it's a meaningless option for 99% of players, so home rules it is.
Also, spaced armor worked with the old vehicle damage chart, not sure how it'd work with today's damage chart.
>>
>>96441139
Can someone explain the necklace thing?
>>
>>96441349
for future reference, you can condense a lot of lines for a more readable list, you don't need to list wargear that is already included like ironstrider feet, close combat weapons etc, dunecrawler legs, etc
also you can slap three special weapons in every ranger/vanguard squad and the general assumption is you do so

Finally done. My first ever painted mini. My submission to the collage. Nothing went as planned, nothing worked like I wanted it to. I learned a lot and I had fun even though I was sick while painting him. Master of Executions of The Hounds of Abaddon. I know he looks terrible. I'll try to do better next time. My biggest screw up was a bad too thin basecoat which resulted in the paint not sticking to the model like I wanted to. I'll prime with a spray next time.

>>96441497
>You’re going to work on your dominates?
I feel more energized. It is all I can think about.
Tomorrow is Labour Day in Leafland. So I get a whole day off to paint my models.
There may be a "shift" in some of the colours. I really like ProAcryl's AMP Steel paint. The difference hopefully isn't too much from what I'm seeing and how a camera picks it up.
I really like Pro Acryl's metallic paints in general because of the metallic colour tones PA has selected.

I tried painting gems but it's above my skill level, I found a nice tutorial but I think the ones on the banner are even smaller.

Would probably be ""double the amount of wounds you have remaining for the purpose of determining if the vehicle is bracketed"

IE if a vehicle brackets at 4 wounds and you has 3 left, you would count as having 6 left"

As someone who thinks Phil Kelly has never written a Tau book above 5/10, it was pretty fun. The Council members are all cool in their own way, only the Air Caste is a bit weak and it has a great Kroot character as well. It has a nice mix of machiavellian Tau plotting and darker side with their genuine optimism and belief in their ideology. The Raptor antagonist is as I posted before the smartest space marine to ever live, both in terms of warfare and ability to look critically at his own society.
If you're not into Tau at all you probably won't care but it's genuinely the best Tau focused book out right now (I don't count Fire Caste et al as Tau focused).

It's a flaw of 2-piece plastic injection molding, so it's more of an inevitability. Most of the time it's pretty easy to remove with the flat side of your hobby knife. Other model kits from other companies have it too, it's just more pronounced with the scale and parts in 40k. It's much less noticeable in a car kit

I have the medium sized offering from Tabletop Stronghold and it works really well.
MDF wood case with metal trays, assembly required. You can order additional trays from him, too. Plexi-ish front held by surprisingly strong velcro + holder strips to keep the trays inside and in-place.
It's one guy working out of his house basically, great customer service.
I have right around 3k points in those trays not counting my Land Raider.

Can they feel emotions? Hate? Rage? Pleasure?

>Ia it really so bad to be a Necron Overlord/Cryptek?
Most crypteks seem to be fine, turns out having a hobby or autistic fixation goes a long way to spend eternity
But in general necrons all have troubles feeling genuine emotions, they might have imitations of them, approximations of them, even convincing ones, but the soul is lacking and they can feel that
on the plus side, sadness is also an emotion they can't feel that well either

>Also why do they complain that they have no flesh bodies?
Imagine yourself in their situation, all earthly pleasures and sensations are suddenly out of reach, you have still a mind that desires and expects those sensations, but you cannot have them, and if you become self conscious enough about it you'll start freaking out about not breathing
>Can't they just grow flesh bodies? They can hop from one Necron to the other and reshape to look like themselves. Can't they hop to flesh bodies?
They're working on that, but they have no intact memories of what they looked like before, they have no genetic databank of an original necrontyr, and pretty much all necrontyr culture got ruined and crumbled away.
They're working on a method of reversing the biotrasference, but growing bodies doesn't seem to be what they're doing, rather they're just harvesting humans, dissecting them, studying how souls work.
Or to be correct, szeras is tasked with working on it, since he was the chief engineer for the biotrasference in the first place, but he's still far from grasping how souls work, and he thinks necrons should advance to the next transhuman step of becoming energy beings instead of making the step backwards into flesh bodies.
Finding a way to reverse the process is more of a pr stunt of the silent king for the wider necron dynasties.

Build and primed this bad boy today. Quite a fun model. I gotta figure out what sort of color scheme I wanna try out, Im wondering if I should try some lava stuff, glowing from within idk.

>They're working on a method of reversing the biotrasference, but growing bodies doesn't seem to be what they're doing, rather they're just harvesting humans, dissecting them, studying how souls work.
Or to be correct, szeras is tasked with working on it, since he was the chief engineer for the biotrasference in the first place, but he's still far from grasping how souls work
Pariah's are the key. they always have been.

The body is from Necromunda Hivescum, I used a Neophyte arm for the knife. I was also given a free arm that holds a binoculars though I might replace it something, needs to be free as the knife sanctus doesn't have any other weapons. I attached a coiled wyrm from one of the sprues to the knife to make it GSC.
The base is rather empty and someone suggested filling it somehow, so I thought of making a brick wall from the sprues, I might make it a bit taller and position the guy in a way where he's taking cover behind it.

>>96442881
pariah's are a more interesting lore development for necrons than whatever else they're doing now

because yeah, pariah's might be the stop-gap for necrons returning to the flesh, they are heavily augmented cyborgs with no souls, a vessel that could house the conciousness of a necron itself

in fact I don't understand why the necrons don't throw other species into the biotransference chambers just to see what happens, as pariah's arent that, they're just cyborgs
>>
>>96442915
Do they even have the biotransference furnaces anymore?
>>
>>96442922
they probably don't
first of all it's taboo to give anyone else their rightful gift of immortality
secondly, those worked with the ctan, now that the ctan are no more, chances are that they don't work

>Are you aware my battle-brothers mock the idea of your Empire clawing its way to greatness? As if all we need do is muster a fraction of our strength and crush you. As if that were so simple a task. The Imperium's blessed war machine is a diseased giant, not easily stirred. Your Empire is a dynamo of conquest. Unchallenged, you will set your ambitions on the realm of Ultramar, or even the holy sanctuary of Segmentum Solar. Your significance is not in the threat you pose today. It is in the threat you pose in ten thousand years...I have fought you in the manufactoria of Nimbosa. I have fought you in Taros and the beaches of Plafion. I fight you here now, that my gene-kindred need not fight you at the gates of Terra in one hundred millenia. I will not bow to your arrogant heresies. Not while the Raven Lord's blood courses through my veins."

>We exist in fundamental opposition. Your Greater Good is a dream of supremacy, and it would come at the cost of ours. What serves your kind shall always harm mine. It pains me to admit this, but we are the same. This is why I fight a war I cannot win. To poison your ideas. The t'au who survive this conflict will forever question the decrees of your priest class. The weak mortals who give in to your lies will never trust your promises again. Tonight, your Empire follows in the footsteps of the Imperium. To crush my rebellion, you just slaughter the innocent. Your only alternative is retreat. But you will not retreat.

>Swordlight clenched her jaw. 'We're better than that. Better than you.'

>So mourn all empires as they annihilate their foes. It matters not how you subjugate this world. Whether your fire warriors massacre the rioters in that plaza, or whether your pilots raze the city from orbit... When word of the atrocity spreads across your sept worlds, all will know what I know. Your Empire rots. The purity of the T'au'va does not exist.

Is DG more reasonable after the nerfs? Can I play them with my friends without feeling bad?
Also here are some poxwalkers I contrastslopped, it was fun and very quick. Should probably just power through it and do 10 more so I can be done with poxes forever.

GW loves bringing back old stuff to bait nostalgia so I'm sure they will return in some form eventually.
What other weird old models have fallen off without a replacement for years now? Something more recent that Zoats but not as recent as firstborn.

If GW ever brings a lost Primarch back, I'm sure one of their gimmicks is just going to be the American Soldier Man who got Apocalypse Now'd and the Raptors are his Geneseed to give GW an excuse to cater specifically to this niche.
No idea what the other one would be. Whatever super popular space marine army also has a unique gimmick.
>>
>>96443118
Nope.

I deadass start a model and then Sally also purely coincidentally does it as well.

Only Tau model I've done that wasn't seemingly simultaneously was the Stormsurge, where he had one battle/play ready long before my proxy was done.

Except we have explicit and recent confirmation from Malcador that the Emperor made all of his Primarchs male despite being advised not to do so.
