Oh no no no

What's the best offhand option for vanvets?Shields? Inferno pistols? Plasma?
>>96459996>Make new miner faction>No big drill unitIs James stoopid?
>>96459988It's pretty funny since the hobby has become even less accessible for kids.Kinda crazy seeing a lot of flgs going from daycares around the 2000-2010's to manchildren debating area's now.
Just ran into a video interview with Gav Thorpe where he said in the past, there were two edicts in GW. The first was that there would never be a HH game. The reasoning behind it is that people are already buying enough Space Marines in 40K; why would they want to buy more? The second edict was that there wouldn't be any Primarchs in 40K. Since the thinking at the time is that they don't fit into 40K and the theme of "paradise lost". In 40K, the Primarchs no longer had a role and no part to play in the unfolding story of humanity's slow death. They were meant to be just figures of myth.What changed?
>>96460009Depends what character/personality I want to give them
>>96460009The one you think looks the coolest
>>96460022>What changed?$$$
You gonna join rat girl chaos?
>>96460022>What changed?Narrative integrity took (even more of) a backseat to short-term commercial interests.
>>96459879But even the finished one they did for the collage looks like shit compared to their lamenter models
>>96460038Only once she gets h cups and a fat ass. Also wouldn't complain if she became 12 foot tall
>>96460038bae a cutie
DRUK bros....they're actually going to do it aren't they?>Dark Eldar Combat Patrol gone from website>No preview show announced in the near future>0 leaks or rumors outside of the Lady Malys miniThey're going to unceremoniously dump out a new Dark Eldar Codex with only a hero model, a new god awful Homoculus or Wych Combat Patrol box, and several nerfs to push those shitty boxes, and then fuck off for another 2 years aren't they?The only potential curve ball they could throw is that unreleased Kill Team that hasn't been leaked turns out to be Grotesques or Beast Pack but I doubt it.
>>96460049here's the best i can do
>>96460022This >>96460032Some people will say "GW was always about the money" but it's not true, there was a time where the hobby was a priority alongside money.Greed as always makes it all about itself, everything is turned to serve it.Why make a good products that sells when we can sell less for more?
Got me some blue ink to paint stuff like psyker eyes and psychic glow efffect. Do I just apply it on a white-ish base as the paint is translucent and similar to contrast type paints?
>>96460009Dual inferno pistols>oh sorry that was only legal for Blood Angels in 8th edition I still built them though. They were fun tank killers and murdered Kharn on overwatch once.
>>96460048trying too hard
>>96460058you like it?
>>96460058- New Dark Eld- sorry, DRUKHARI codex[2 months later]- 11th edition
>>96460072Its just the truth
>>96460078Guarantee you it will be this minus the Incubi because they're actually useful.
>>96460048Yes anon the heavy weathering distracts from the fact that its a fairly simple paintjob underneath, let's move on
>>96460089Show us your amazing collage entry we'd love to see it.
>>96460089thanks for admitting to being blind
>>96460022>what changed All the creative talent, who created the story, the setting, the model sculpts and aesthetic direction, the gameplay design choices, ie. the CREATORS of Warhammer 40k were all slowly pushed out and replaced by talentless corporate millennials. Not a single soul working at Games Workshop had a hand in its creation and they have less understanding of the game and setting than the fans do. Their primary objective is money and business. It's funny when nuGW pushes put something like Femstodes and the true fans say "that's NOT lore accurate," but then the nu40kiddies fans say "it's the OFFICIAL lore, because it was released by Games workshop!" They don't realize that modern Games Workshop is not the creator of Warhammer, it's just wearing the skin suit of the Warhammer creators. It's like the modern Ashkenazi Israelis masquerading around as Biblical Judeans/Israelites, they are NOT the same people despite adopting their religion and living on their historical land. It's just LARPING under the same name.
>>96460009waiting until they get updated in 11th
>>96459983>>96460026The death of the hobby
>>96460022turned out the soap opera audience spends like crazy, and the horus heresy family drama setting was ideal for them. nothing wrong with a company pivoting when they realise a mistake.
>>96460110No one forces you to play like this
>>96460048I dunno I like my guy, I had a lot of fun with him. He's far from the best thing I've painted but I'm not really chasing one consistent quality for all my stuff. I get a lot of satisfaction out of painting as many ways as possible so all my stuff is done to various standards
>>96459983>>96459988>>96460026It's hilarious that they have no counter argument to this, because they know it's not a meme, it's unfortunately a very succinct and accurate portrayal of the state of modern warhammer
>>96460101Is there a list of the old GW folks with their current status?If there's the date at which they left GW that's a plus.
>>96460125it's a bot replying to its own spamposts, ignore it
>>96460070Thats what I do but I recommend you mix a tiny bit of blue into the white, ties it together much better than just using straight white.
>>96460101>These god danged millennialsOkay boomer
>>96460126Why are you replying to an obvious faggot? Everyone can see the model looks awesome.
>>96460070blue ink is not going to glow, inks don't act like contrast at all
>>96459973I agree with KT being a little too complicated. This can make for some crazy games if both people understand the rules but it’s otherwise a headache. If they’d gone for a Warcry approach to team-sized engagements instead it would have been a lot less complicated, albeit still imbalanced.
>>96460132Oh my bad ty
>>96460134I'm a 30 year old millennial. Warhammer was created by Boomers and Gen X whether you like it or not. Millennial "talent" has given us Marvel Cinematic Universe, Fortnite, Nuhammer, Overwatch, etc.
>>96460150don't drag conversations from the shitposter's general into the real thread
I completely forgot about this commission for years and finally picked it up. I forgot about it so long that I now paint my own models, though not this well.
>>96460155>millennial>30Literally zoomer age
>>96452621Sorry for the late-ass reply (Work and all) but is that a good "Oh god" or a bad "Oh God". It was my first time painting Horses.
>>96460165retard
>>96460144Retard question - what do people even use inks for nowadays?
Kind of suspect all this might be that retard who bought a bunch of firstborn after the primaris launch. The seethe has a flavour of fake-grog to it.
>>96460165>calls me boomer>calls me zoomerTrying too hard
>>96460163That is pretty damn lovely, how much did it cost back then?
>>96460155>Gorillaman launches in 2017>GW operates on at minimum 3 year timetable, so planned in 2014I'm sure all those early 20s executives were making the calls for this
>>96460142Thanks anon, and I like tempering peoples expectations with my stuff, I don't like the pressure of people assuming all my stuff is to be up to the same standard. I don't really have fun trying to painting to other people's standards. I have a blast flip-flopping between speed painting and higher effort stuff. Also saw what was leading towards someone posting my model and falseflagging as me and decided to head them off at the pass and just post it
>>96460175I thought that guy killed himself though?
>>96460018The Ironing.
>>96460184Millennials were in their 30s in 2014 you moron kek
>>96460192I feel you, great job as always tho sista
>>96460197we can only hope
>>96460205
Imperial agents expansion is coming!! I can feel it!>TQHive scum and deamonhosts! We need like a cutesy little kill team of just retards in chains screaming around with poorly made weapond and flamethrowers, genuinely peakhammer. Don't got a daemonhost picture saved on my phone so I had to put picrel>>96460101I think the artwork is still holding fairly solid even if I despise a couple of the artists working there, specially those with the whole background color blur thing it's disgusting, but it's not all of them! I think models are higher quality than ever even if I hate monopose slop, it's more a tech thing than a creative thing though im sure if older GW had the tools they have now they could do better. The aesthetic direction is shit because we are moving into herohammer sloppa, specially the writing seems to be at an all time low. Dan Abnett got sucked off too much by the fanbase and fellow writers so now he's just doing whatever the fuck he wants no matter how absurd it all is.>>96460058It will be out before the year ends and trust me it's gonna be something fancy I believe, probably the best refresh this edition! GW leaks are always manufactured by insiders to try and build up hype and that's why they ring true so often, unless it's like some spanish store owner leaking boxes he got earlier. If they aren't leaking anything to youtubers it's cause they wanna make a big time surprise, drukhari are probably the most requested faction refresh as of late. It will be all monopose slop though and I fear it might be a Emp's Children type scenario.>>96460163Nice fucking work man
>>96460134Wargaming is a boomer hobby and boomers are the SOVL of wargaming. Compare a boomer historical convention to what you see at a millennial/zoomer 40k convention. One is pure SOVL and passion, the other is soulless paypigs slop
>>96460175I did that too desu. I like them and play 7th and 2nd with my friends and still get mileage out of them in regular 10th edition flgs play
>>96460202Nope

Who's everyone's favorite Warhammer influencer? Wes Hammer is great for his breadth of knowledge and presentation, but Squidmar is incredibly helpful in helping me paint my Warhammer.

>>96460307>>96460328Yeah I should look into getting some new equipment. I usually try to avoid getting a bunch of tool I rarely use but this shit has me thinking I should take the leap and get something.
>>96460352Maybe later. Not much to see now it's mostly clean. Mostly.
>>96460128There's no need for anything but the bare truth.
>>96460311This guy is sick. I still gotta decide if I'm gonna do another kitbashed dude for the collage or work on something else for the month
>>96460125Every single comp player is going to die. We'll start with you, anon. 40k will become a narrative first game again. GW will be forced to do it when they see how much death they've caused.
>>96460217>A huge-ass one-of game that probably has some homebrew rules to it.>>96460238>A tournament setting where everyone has to play by the same rules and with each player probably doing 3-5 matches across the eventI hate the shit out of L-shaped Ruins too anon but to put it in Magic terms you're comparing the one table in the corner playing Planechase Commander to the rest of the LGS that's playing a Modern tournament. I'd like it if we got to see more asymmetrical table setups to complement the asymmetrical deployments in the newest Chapter Approved deck, but I know if they did that tourneyfags would start arguing over shit like "Why does my opponent get the good half of the board?"
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96460311First try at sculpting. The milliput was a little flakier than I expected. Only read after the fact that you're supposed to lubricate the tools to stop it sticking to them. Came out well enough for a first attempt though.
>>96460339It's going to be a bright day when i get the chance to glass majorcuck at the pub.I think the only lorechuuba i don't mind is Baldermort, i haven't watched his video's in a good while but when i watched his wordbearers and nighlords vids they were pretty neat with their 1st person ministories and an actual explanation that wasn't just a retelling of a lexicum artical.
>>96460275Fair enough. Plenty of official GW artists still give a fuck though because they're aware the artwork and the aesthetics are a major selling point for the setting. Hell some of Kopinski's works are what got me interested in it to begin with after hearing one of my siblings go on and on about it. If they could just hire cheap asshats for everything they would, but they can't. While there are definitly more mediocre artists now than back in the day there are also tons of very great pieces being made. That and codexes still using art from 2003 to this day.>Artistically, noFair enough, Emperor's Children situation was truly absolutely a blast to the nuts, lost potential of a legion. It seems the only ones getting decent models these days are xenos factions and even than the eldar update was still kinda dissapointing. I liked the IG stuff though and if we can call Admech as nu-gw it's absolurely a army I adore but don't have the skills to paint.
>>96460399Assuming you're not that faggot samefagging his bait, please stop replying to low effort shitposting.
>>96460404Nice. You can get rid of a little bit of flakiness by applying some plastic cement to it. Miliput is partially susceptible to it.
>>96460398That seems at the very least to be an overreaction
>>96460422Why so upset?
>>96460361Treat a jug of superclean like a forever investment. The 20 bucks you'll spend on one jug replaces buying ISO for the rest of your life. I even let my jug dry out completely one time accidentally cause I left the lid off and it turned into mothing but dry crystals. I just poured water back into it and shook it up and all the crystallized degreaser rehydrated perfectly and worked like a brand new jug. Shit is some kind of magic I swear.
>>96460217Amazing table.
>>96460404You can also smooth out milliput by letting it cure for a bit, and then running over the surface of the putty with a wet paintbrush
>>96460311Here is the start of ye olde sergeant Cleutin. He is supposed to just have a bolt pistol and a box but I feel it would be a little boring so I'll give him a banner too. Got a lot of sculpting ahead of me, gonna make some leopard pelts.
>>96460311primed and basecoatedmight get started on painting tonight if I don't get called in
>>96460448What's the major diference that superclean brings? I can get 5L of metho for about $11 and that does wonders for stripping paint.
>>96460399The issue here is that historical games lend themselves to creating narrative and immersive tables, whereas 40k by design and it's community are both hostile to any creative expression
>>96460466make another one of your shitpost threads and stop spamming ours
>>96460018>less accessible for kids.Wut? Are you part of their social media engagement team?
>>96460461Looks great but I'm not sold on the storm bolter in the back.
>>96460460>leopard peltsBased.>>96460461Cool conversion, but that stormbolter bugs me. Is it supposed to be in a "stowed away" position?
>>96460404Get some greenstuff and mix it with the miliput, it'll make your life much easier and you can still file. Also pick up some clay shapers from amazon, the light blue ones with the white rubber tips -- they're about 5 quid, they come in a pack of five different shapes with alternate metal tips for more precise work where a firmer tool is needed for shaping, and they are absolute game changers. Also, you will be surprised how little greenstuff you need for most tasks. Less is more is a golden rule with sculpting. I recommend getting a few tubs of petroleum jelly to sculpt with, but you'll need to wash your minis after they cure, as it can sometimes give your paints trouble. I've never had an issue with it but I've been told so and wash them accordingly. Some people advocate water, but I find that a pain because of constantly having to reapply the water, and it also makes it difficult to feel what I'm doing, so I don't recommend it personally. Others insist upon moisturising cream such as Nivea or E45 or whatever it's called, but for me a bit of lip balm, vaseline, or something, really makes the difference. Sometimes it makes your pieces less sticky though so it's best to apply it first... Just keep going, you'll surprise yourself with what you're capable of doing.
>>96460474>spamming "our" 40k is MY hobby and it's been mine long before you discovered it in 9th edition you ass eating faggot. Fuck you.
>>96460474If it's stressing you out so much, maybe you should take a step back from The Hobbyâ„¢.
>>96460339Mspaints is comfy. I like that he focuses on low stress painting, and only doing stuff he thinks is cool. Means you get a few videos that don't perfectly align with our warhammer hobby, but I'd rather see someone genuinely excited about the stuff they like than see a video on every tuber click bait trend
>>96460478>>96460480it's on a little swivel mount attached to the servo-harness
>>96460423>>96460457>>96460482Cheers lads, I'm looking forward to figuring out a new part of the hobby.
>>96460476I'm talking about the actual hobby mate and the pricing of it, but even back in the day GW employee's would usually throw in the short stories that tied into which ever starter set a kid was getting, like battle of skull pass and assult on blackreach.Honestly the only people I've seen buy those novels are hobby Dad's getting it for their kids to try and get them interested in the hobby.
>>96460504Looks better from behind but I think you should consider changing it for a servo arm or something.
>>96460504Can you rotate it so it points downward and it's more obvious that it's "not currently in use"?
>>96460496>The "hobby" in question
>>96460464Superclean penetrates better. Iso can only really affect the top layer, whereas superclean rips it's way through to the plastic. It means you don't really have to scrub stuff the same way you do with alcohol. I've stripped models primed with BBQ spray paint and just rinsed the paint off under the sink after a soak for an hour
>>96460519>how to spot a secondary

>>96460537Well, just paint it so good that it makes people forgive the awkward bolter.
>>96460536So this is an admission, neat.
>>96460482I hate using oils and creams to lubricate tools, I find it more annoying having to wash the whole thing off anytime I need to add more putty to get a good adhesion

>>96460414Baldermort isn't bad. Haven't listened to him in years but I remember liking his stories. The one I remember best is a great crusade marine on a low tech world tanking fire from an army of muskets and artillery from old cannons to deliver a dataslate to the enemy commander to convince him that it was in the planets best interest to rejoin the imperium without further resistance.
>>96460557At least one other person pointed it out in this very thread.
>>96460544You're gonna get deflections, or someone posting a bunch of grey models at best. At worst you're going to have someone lashing out at you for the rest of the thread

>>96460705I agree,>THE FATE OF THE UNIVERSEis an overused and usually poor premise in genre fiction.
so dark eldar aren't getting a codex this edition right?
>>96460759They will, a week before the release of the 11th iteration of the core rules. WH4K is the greatest miniatures game in the world.
>>96460651Valedor and Outgunnee, probably.
>>96460759Sure fucking seems like it. Best case scenario they're getting a refresh as part of the 11th release.

I'd be perfectly fine with Deldar getting the starter box though as long as they don't refresh shit that already looks good, like Kabalites and Raiders
I was informed that there were autocannon+jump pack equipped Chaos Devastators in 2nd edition, much like modern Suppressor Squads, but the Slaves to Darkness book doesn't show this. What's going on?
>>96460837...further, jump packs cannot be used in the same activation as move-or-fire weapons, so jump pack+heavy weapons wouldn't have been used together.I was informed Suppressors had precedent. /40kg/ wouldn't mislead me, would it?
>>96460837>270 points for a T3, 1W unitlmao what shit is this?
>>96460814fuck...
>>96460133White as in into the ink or unto the base that I'll apply the ink to? I was thinking of using on the Patriarch's big-head where he touches his brain.>>96460144Since the ink is translucent, wouldn't it still make it "glow" when applied on a lighter base?
>>96460854A more civilized age.
>>96460829>to coincide with DoW4Aren't the baddies, Necrons?
>>96460813He's our in house shitposter over on /wfg/. Fucking up the thread and goading you to post your naked body is his thing
>>96460837
>>96460837>I was informedCitation:>>96435036 >You asked for marines wielding weapons as tall as them and there you have them, they're arguably even heavier than said autocannons in instances.>They also fly btw.
>>96460869Yes, but that's because Orks are the real protagonists. Always are in DoW.Orks are in it too
I like posting here because I like being a bigger fish in a smaller pond
>>96460930We know, Lamenteranon
>>96460849>so jump pack+heavy weapons wouldn't have been used togetherWeird, considering Dark Eldar Scourges had jump packs and Heavy weapons. Does your whole troll boil down to, "there's no precedence to a jump squad with heavy weapons if they don't have autocannons and cannot fire on the move"?
>>96460930this place is an even bigger watering hole turned shithole after the hack the shitposters ran off so much people
>>96460858should work, just use a fine brush or you'll end up like picrel
>>96460946Hmm... that sure would be a pickle if there weren't fundamental differences in Eldar and Imperial technology.
>>96460943Not me, I wouldn't complain if I suddenly started flying under the radar more, but I don't think that's in the cards for me
>>96460960>argues rules>now argues fluffYou tried.
>>96460930that's because you're a fat fuck
>>96460967I'm sure many players in 2nd. Edition were happy to pay the extra cost for both jump packs and heavy weapons, while being restricted to using one at a time.
>>96460959Thanks, I got some spare test minis that GW gives away so I'll probably butcher some before doing the main thing. Also I think the brain-matter should go further into his skull, don't know why I stopped there.
So any of you have purchase plans before the price increase? It actually is about 5% per kit with characters and troops getting the biggest increases while Combat Patrols see pretty much no increase. They got the 4% average because some things just get a 1$ increase to even the number when something is 69$ for example.
>>96461022>So any of you have purchase plans before the price increase?Yes.
>>96460994eh, it's a decent enough fade, and it makes sense based on the shape of his temples (the fact that he has temples at all, in fact) for it to be shrink-wrapped in skin, so it's right about where it should be, imo.
the crusade at my LGS recently wrapped up.My orks suffered and horribly died. They probably should've stayed in bed.
>>96457885I was right.so who else bought some today?
>>96461087No you weren't
>>96454488Wow, thanks for the recommendation, anon! I can't wait to optimize my performance in the exciting competition of Warhammer 40,000!
>>96459972>TQ A Mekboy ATV, kind of like a workshop-on-wheels that can lead warbikers and buff their ranged attacks- maybe even heal/bring a model back each command phase
>>96461078Lose no heart, anon. For thine plight be'eth small spoilage to the vast chasm of transcendent joy that commanding a host of Greenskins provides. Verily, 'tis part and parcel of walking our path of Waaagh, that bringeth both the apex and nadir of wargming experience.
>>96461091fascinating, why are our amazons different
>>96461022No plans to buy direct. You should be purchasing second hand, prints, and fakes primarily. >>96461078You were the antagonist, the villainy, the enemy of the Imperium. >>96460930Walk softly and carry a big gun
>>96461111What the actual fuck is thisIs this a scam for suckers who don't know that the game resets every 3 years
Finished my kapricus. Gonna seal it tomorrow because my big, fat, greasy fingers have already rubbed a chunk of the middle panels' paint off.
>>96461135don't reply to the spambot
>>96461135a fool and his money are soon parted
>>96461156Looking good! I'm putting mine together right now. The kit's a lot easier to assemble than I thought it'd be.
>>96461135It's table sports.This is what your hobby has become. Will you stand up against it, or will you lie down and accept it like a dog?
>>96461172Oh yeah it's a wonderful kit. I like how the only real subassembly I had to do was painting the base and the bottom of the hover pads before glueing it down.
>>96461130Amazon shows listings for your local distributors/logistics centers/sellers. It's never going to show you the stock of a distribution center like 3-12 hours away, it'll just tell you it's out of stock most of the time
>>96461156What silver metallic do you use? It looks really smooth and nice.
>>96461156How does this thing attach to the base? Clear flights stem in the center? Also looks great btw
I hope the mods get back from vacation soon
>>96461203Vallejo duraluminum. The best silver on the market by a mile and don't let anybody tell you otherwise.>>96461204It's honestly an unfortunate flight stand, at least by my standards. It's a piece that glues into the model during the early stages of assembly and can't just be slotted in at the bottom after everything else, so you have a part of your base always attached to the model, meaning you can't easily paint the base separately. You have to set up your base so that you can glue the rock down in the center of it after making the terrain.Additionally, it's height makes the hover pads nearly touch the base themselves, so if you're like me and want the illusion of your hover vehicle, I don't know, hovering above rocky terrain? You have to build another rock for it to sit on so it'll actually fly above them.
>>96461197Don't talk it down too much anonI paid for training and when I got home from winning my local tourney my wife's boyfriend clapped me on the shoulder and told me how proud of me he was. I know my dad would think so too but it's a shame he's too busy to take my calls anymore...
>>96461216I was wondering why the threads seemed twice as bad this weekend despite no reveals>>96461248>It's a piece that glues into the model during the early stages of assembly and can't just be slotted in at the bottom after everything else, so you have a part of your base always attached to the model, meaning you can't easily paint the base separately.That is fucking weird
show me a good lelith kitbash. the current model sucks.
>>96461248>Vallejo duraluminumI use Vallejo Metal Color Steel and I find it a bit speckled, sadly my hobby store won't stock anything until October or so. When not using with an airbrush it also separate a lot on the palette a lot, but the coverage is so good.
>>96461257Tell us what you dislike about the current model. Nobody wants to play 20 questions with you shitting on every suggestion without providing any context
>>96461261Don't use it on a wet palette, it'll just become too watery as it's already thinned for airbrush use. I bought a little painters cup sheet just for duraluminum (and mixing shades) because it's wet enough as is.
>>96461261I find all the metal colours separate very quickly, but just having a stir stick on the side means you can quickly stir it when it starts to split
>>96461271Alternatively, bottle caps are decent well palettes in a pinch, they just aren't very reusable
>>96461156A little mock-up of the kapricus with its flock of bikes.I really love the hover-tech in votann and this model has revealed this information to me.I want a whole army of these flying things.
>>96460022>unfolding story of humanity's slow deathIs 40K the story of humanity's death or survival/endurance?
just me or are a lot of "competitive" lists quite light on battleline units, and focus more on other things?
>>96460022GW realized that generic space opera slop sold better than something with an actual artistic vision
>>96461267I mostly want inspo. the pose is baffling and the hair is too...wide? plus GW female face syndrome
>>96461304Whoever decided to put fucking GREEN TEXT on a PURPLE-COLORED BACKGROUND deserves to get shot.
>>96459983>>96460026Do you guys think GW will reverse this in 11th? I don't mind tournaments and events, but I cannot stand these shitty tables and terrain. I don't understand how people look at these setups and are okay with it.
>>96461297It depends on the faction, GSC likes to run 4x20 + 1x10 Neophytes and 4x5 acolytes at bare minimum on a tourney list which are all battleline.
>>96461326don't reply to the spambot
>>96461326Fuck no they won't, it'll probably somehow get worse and then sweatfags will praise it as "THE ULTIMATE BALANCED COMPETITIVE EXPERIENCE" or something
>>96461297It's not in gws best interest to make the models everyone owns the good ones. That's why the competitive lists are weird shit, like plasma inceptors, invader atvs, DC jump packers, etc.. that you wouldn't already have. I'm surprised this thing hasn't been put in units of 3 and made utterly broken
>>96461320So you hate the pose, you hate the hair, you hate the face. What do you like about the model that makes you think you could kitbash away all the things you don't like? Start from there, and consider whether you actually can kitbash it all away, or whether you're better off buying a different kit or model
>>96461341That thing once charged into me, funniest shit ever.
>>96461248I don't know what vallejo put in their metal color paints but the coverage on all of them is insanely good. Even when painting by brush one coat is usually enough. My only problem with them is that they're so thin that they can sometimes act like washes and get into places you don't want them to
>>96461326How is gw going to stop you from playing games with your choice of terrain? Is it really a good thing to prevent beginners from being able to play on their kitchen tables with books and pop cans as terrain? If you want to play with cool terrain then you need to build cool terrain and bring it with you to your games, otherwise you can't expect to have the same standards or like the same style of table as you. If you look at paintball there's like 3 different archetypes of fields. Speedball fields are like 40k tourney tables, milsim is super realistic buildings, and scenery, and woodsball is somewhere in between. People generally gravitate towards one or two archetypes and don't have much interest in the remaining one. 40k is the same thing. Some people want the game to be super balanced, and don't care for narrative/thematic tables and terrain. Some people want a purely narrative experience and could care less about balance.
>>96461078My LGS's crusade "wrapped up" upon phase 2 of Nachmund endingMy Witch Hunters did Inquisition things, leveled up, acquired relics, purged a sub-sector, all while winning a grand total of 1 game (out of like 8)
>>96461350>whether you're better off buying a different kit or modelI am totally open to this. In fact, I expected to for the actual kitbash. I'd love to start with a not-Lelith base - was considering the regular Succubus.
>>96461022>Was thinking of getting nuVulkan + Salamanders Combat Patrol + the DoW box from Target + a bunch of other things to start up a Salamanders army as next year's big army project (Already have a slew of Marine stuff from various lots + a Land Raider I traded for)>Only got the DoW box so far since it was at Target while I was buying other stuff>Don't know if I want to drop ~$300 on minis that'll probably just sit on a shelf until January or buy them later when the whole thing'll be like $20-30 more.The thing is I have the Combat Patrol magazine to keep my plastic addiction sedated for like another year and a half on top of what I've got in the backlog already, so I'm not really in a rush to buy new models I say this after buying an extra copy of the issue that comes with a Wraithlord for $30 off ebay just this weekend.
>>96461326Unironically it's only going to get worse like it's fine every other battle pass season (edition)
>>96461448Just pick any female elf body and give it two daggers and ass some long hair and you have yourself a Lelith.
I hate how cucked real humans are in 40k. You don't even get to choose what evil you serve.Tau Auxiliaries aren't even in the game at all, Chaos Cultists aren't an army, just little subjects of a middle manager trans "human" servants.Gene-stealer cults are barely human, but for them VICTORY means complete genocide, they can't even award your loyal service.I am a human, the writers are human, why is humanity portrayed like this?
>>96461477Digganobz
>>96461320Face can be fixed but I'd suppose it'd take some skill of which I'm not able to paint.
>>96461448You'd probably need a tactical rock to get them up to size but it could work
>>96461477
how many rubrics should a thousand sons player have at least? 20? 30?
>>96461477From the latest lore about Gue'vesa, they are given gear identical to fire warriors + Devilfish and Hammerheads.Basically, everything except suits which so far only one Gue'vesa was allowed to pilot.So what would be the point of making Gue'vesa models? Just convert guardsmen into fire warriors count-as.
>>9646149230
>>96459972add GPMGs to guard or let them have heavy weapons teams back in infantry blobs
>>96461492The thing is they have 2 weapon choices, flamers or bolters. You want about 40 in total. 20 flamers and 20 bolters. Currently we only use flamers so next edition probably bolters will shine.
>>96460126this looks really bad can you stop posting it in every single thread.
>>96460126This kitbash looks fantastic I always love getting to see it
>>96461468>>96461481Can we all stop and agree that Lelith would look hyper cute with a diapee taped on her tushie?Also I have a question. Why is there a severe lack of ABDL art in 40K circles?
>>96461514>>96461521
>>96461468I dunno, this one kind of gets the idea across but it's way too armored. You probably need to use one of the witch elves from Fantasy/AoS as the base
No chance for a Temur flip card eh
>>96461334But you can have competition and balance without shit tables. I used to play infinity and one of the best things about tournaments was playing on unique tables. >>96461387They can't stop me from playing on any sort of terrain, but everyone else in my lgs and every lgs around me play on these terrain and the specific GW terrain layouts. It's become the standard way to play here even if people aren't going to tournaments. This includes narrative crusade campaigns as well. Everyone is playing on the same fucking table. Have I asked my friends to play on a different table? Yes, and we have played on cool tables. But more than not, I'm in the minority and playing on the GW terrain layout. >>96461465You say that. But GW has proven that they're able to adjust their predatory behavior and be consumer friendly. Last edition, people had to buy countless Chapter Approved books that balance/break their game every 2-3 months. This edition all army updates have been free pdfs. This terrain/table setup thing is also a new thing is a 10th edition addition that was initially started by 3rd party tournament organization. So GW CAN adapt, whether it's for the better or not is unclear. It's just bizarre. Because GW doesn't do thing unless there's something to sell, and they still haven't made terrain for the "footprints". I think this only proves how rushed out 10th was.
>>96461500>latest lore Kek do people really?
Past weekend's tourney, moving up in the world.
>>96461548Fluff is a pejorative. Do better.
>>96461557Kek another one to add to the collection
>>96461527You’re pathetic
>>96461570Holy fuck he even showed up wearing his Warhammer themed T-Sports jersey
>>96461530oh I like this.>witch elves from aosI think this might be perfect. ty anon
>>96461481Wild that this five year old model is still the newest thing in that range and looks like such unsalvageable dog shit compared to all the old stuff.
>>96461557I can't even tell if these are bait any more, or if every game really does just look this bad
>>96461593They don’t, most of the ones ive seen look incredible.
>>96461511I know flamers are really powerful but I don't see how AP-2 bolters with Ignores Cover (from Icon of Flame) are at all bad.
Hopefully the next thread is better.
>>96461570He looks like a gentle Giant but small
>>96461619Wow solid addition to the thread. Very good work.
>>96461593Depends on the setup area you're playing in. Picrel had a better base matte but we avoided necron terrain since my bud/opponent didn't bring his
>>96461542>but everyone else in my lgs and every lgs around me play on these terrain and the specific GW terrain layoutsSo once again. Be the change you want to see. Bring the terrain from home. Make your games fit your tastes. Otherwise you are complaining about something you could easily fix yourself
>>96461572Caught him lol
>>96461593They don't, this is just a spambot
>>96461570You don't have to samefag your bait, we know it's you
>>96461618They aren't bad but flamers probably won't survive to the next edition so they can force people to buy more Rubrics.
>>96461598>can't provide a single example
>>96461589How do retards say the want to kitbash without bothering to look at all the model lines gw makes. Like it's all on the same site. You really didn't think about looking at models for other rules sets?

>>96461679Playing with friends only is a blessing
>>96461477You can just make your own Gue’vesa anon. I admit the lack of rules is meh, but realistically how would they differ from regular firewarriors?
>>96461653Oh hey, some of the jannies are working now, thanks for the cleanup king
>>96461667When you post the same image 40+ times with the same filename, yeah its kinda obvious
>>96461696careful, he's gonna try to deflect and imply that simple fact checking with the archives is supposed to be a bad thing
>>96461690This might be my fave model you've done so far sallyanon, the guy you did recently with the whip is a close second for me though
>>96461696>Archivefaggotry
>>96461699>>96461702
>>96461690See >>96461500They are functionally the same as fire warriors
>>96461690>Purity seals and a reliquary on a battlesuit.Do Gue’La really?
>>96461696Hmmm... doesn't check out.
>>96461710if their superstitions keep the gue'vesa happy then then who are the Tau to complain
>>96461022Gonna be getting both Black Templar and Imperial Fist combat patrols for a sweet 1000 point reinforcements for my current Black Templar army
>>96461700I’ll be honest I like the whip guy myself even more than the new Vulkan. It’s just a shame that librarians kinda suck.
>>96461719There is no room for petty superstition in the Greater Good.
>>96461715>inspect element>what is a phoneYou should know better than to try and post a screencap in 2025 the year of our duncan
>>96461619What's wrong with the thread?
>>96461724I think the black turned out really cool and moody on him, maybe we'll get some cool space wizards next edition and they'll do psychic awakening 2 electric boogaloo. I wouldn't complain if they brought my lib dread back but I'm not holding my breath
>>96461729Actually, the Council of the Highest assigned Aun'Do to research ways to weaponise the Gue'vesa faith in the Greater Good.Shadowsun, by the end of her novel, allowed shrines to the GG goddess to remain.
>>96461739If you can't tell right away then you are what is wrong with the thread
>>96461627Christ anon, get a makeup brush and give that poor dread a good dusting.
>>96461729I love when people try and stonewall people with ebin lore gotchas and then get btfo immediately >>96461744
>>96461747Maybe he did a really light full body drybrush of silver…
>>96461619I'm being completely serious when I say this is why we need asylums back. Someone doesn't behave like this without being genuinely mentally ill, and everyone else shouldn't be obligated to watch them make a spectacle of them soiling themselves.
>>96461755Who are you talking about wtf?
>>96461722>Black TemplarWatch out with this one. Apparently they fucked up base sizes in a huge batch of those. There is a whole thread on r*ddit with quite a lot of people reporting the same problem.
>>96460311I'm going to do something VERY cringeThe arms are bad here though so i'm going to figure out something else for those, and I have no idea where I'm going to get a needle pistol
>>96461477Have you considered just converting and reskining an army.
>>96461758Again, if you don't know then you are the problem. Anyone who isn't socially retarded could point it out
>>96461769Don't bother.
>>96461769Oh ok so schizo stuff
>>96461764and since I finished last month's collage entry really early I got started on this ridgerunner. i'll finish it up before going full effort on the kitbash
>>96461708>>96461500That's quite an upgrade from being actively genocided.>>96461729>>96461719It's not superstition, the astronomicon objectively exists, every Nisscar can see it, deep scout ships rely on the Emperor.
I'm a secondary that only recently can actually afford miniatures, I'm almost done painting my first models (new Votann combat patrol), and even doing it slapchop with contrast paints I feel like an immense retard when it comes to using a brush. When should I switch to painting correctly?
>>96461481I hate how they turned her into an Ogryn infiltrator. The same day I saw the new model revealed I went and bought the old one before it went out of print.
>>96461778>That's quite an upgrade from being actively genocided.The Gue'vesa were never genocided. Each lore update about them mentions their numbers are increasing.
>>96461764Necromunda escher upgrade set? Would be a good thing to have on hand for a gac player anyways, tonnes of cool bits in there.
>>96461776Reminds me of sour watermelon gummies
"Get on the resistance bus, fellow mutie!"
>>96461794Have you seen the Tau R34?They BETTER be repopulating
>>96461784No you didnt
>>96461778>>96461794beyond the DoW lore tidbit, the only time a remember Gue'Vesa being directly killed by Tau was during the warp nightmare that the 4th sphere expansion when the Tau realised their gue'vesa were power the greater good psychic entity.It's the reason why most 4th sphere survivors are so distrustful of auxillary units now.
>>96461782>almost done painting my first models>I feel like an immense retardI promise you this never goes away, you just slowly get better at everything without noticing but still feel like you're mostly retarded. I think it's worth it to try both slapchop and traditional styles as a beginner, and to pick the one you find the most fun, NOT the one you're best at right off the bat. You will get better, but while you are learning you may as well enjoy yourself. Brush control takes a long time to polish, but you can get good brush control doing traditional or slapchop stuff
>>96461794Jewish population is also increasing, so I guess the Holocaust didn't happen either.
>>96461804Tau don't fuck.The Tau people, at certain points in their lives, feel an urge to be "lifedoners" and then go to genetic farms where they would hand over their genetic material to be used to create new generations.
>>96461803Tonka/CAT af in the best way possible
>>96461782You shouldn't have bought contrasts to begin withDitch GW paints entirely and buy valejoDo this. Do this no matter what. The only thing worth getting from GW is maybe, MAYBE the shades. And that you can do on your own. Don't fall for the scam. The pots are designed to get paint caked on the inner rim of the lid and dry out faster.And if you need practice, don't buy more models. Buy the purple engine degreaser from walmart and repaint your armies until you're satisfied. The degreaser strips paint clean off and doesn't react at all with model plastic.
>>96461782as someone that started with slapchop, my advice would be to avoid the idea of "painting correctly", and instead think of slapchop as a tool you have the option to use when its appropriate. this is then true for every technique you practice with. that said, i would have started before you began slapchopping, as in, I would not actually recommend starting with slapchop. so, I would switch to acrylic layering right away, or maybe try highlighting and shading your existing slapchop minis.as for brush handling, there's no big secret. choke up on it, rest your hands properly, and practice.>>96461795Hmm, that's not bad. I'll bet there's some cheap ones out of box on ebay.
>>96461690>>96461767They could be the underfunded backwater that they used to be. Rank and file still functionally being essentially reskinned IG and PDF forces. Tau arms and armor on heavy weapon teams and elite units, with vehicles that are in rules and in universe are horrific fusions of IG vehicles that have Tau spare parts welded on.
>>96461816Damn, even my Necrons have more sex than that.
Post Necrons
>>96461819Scerially. Never buy Citadel paints, tools, supplies, etc.
>>96461810It is so dumb that the T'au empire can manifest a minor chaos god. I will never get over it.
>>96461782>When should I switch to painting correctly?Never. The most important thing is to find a method you like that gives results you can accept.
Are there beakie primaris?
>>96461810That's hardly an empire-wide policy. The fourth sphere didn't kill them in transit. The daemons killed all non-tau and then moved on to the tau.The fourth sphere after reunifying with the empire, committed a lot of war crimes and covert murders of non-tau. They were discovered.The fourth sphere were stopped and Commander Surestrike was removed from duty.
>>96461733>implying anyone could edit that fast
>>96461820Dig for recast ones. I dunno if my thicc big tt Chinese wife Miranda has them, dorkminiatures might have them, I can't remember if cheapenfaust has necro stuff, but give them a check too. It's a 30$ sprue from gw, so recast it's probably like 4-7 bucks
>>96461814In this context, a human holocaust never happened.
>>96461805It's not exactly a 2000 dollar model anon I don't see how that's unbelievable. Ironically I also got the new one too since I split that sisters Deldar box with someone else years ago and it came with her, haven't decided what to do with it yet
>>96461819Don't tell beginners to throw out all their paints and buy new ones like it'll change their first minis drastically. You can paint great stuff with citadel, you can paint great stuff with other brands. It's better to learn to paint with the stuff you have, and when you start running out you can replace your gw stuff if you don't like it

>>96461845Fine, let me rephrase for blithering retards that are too stupid to understand basic context;Don't buy any *MORE* GW products, but don't waste the ones you have
>>96461837>3 minutes is faststop ban evading btw
>>96461856Tbf when you say ditch gw paints, it sounds like you're telling him to stop using them right now
>>96461769>>96461755Totally agree, Warhammer 40,000 is the greatest, most popular miniatures wargame on Earth. These people don't know what they're talking about. They're mixed-up.
>>96461836>That's hardly an empire-wide policyYeah i know, during the 4th's very own event horizen experience it freaked the fuck out of the T'au.I'll have to try and find the more indepth bit of fluff about the experimental warp jump without a gellar field and that warp entity powered by the auxila belief in the greater good.

>>96461819Thanks for the tip on the degreaser, right now I'm only buying up to a 1k army list I wanted to play against friends but degreaser can mitigate pissing away money on plastic to try and get better at painting. I will probably finish off these before I move to other paints though. Do you also recommend against something like Army Painter Speedpaint?>>96461820Some of these smaller Votann models seem like a huge pain in the ass to paint traditionally, but maybe I'll try it with a vehicle once I can get some regular paints in the general color scheme I was trying
Anybody else think the choice of basing here is really bad and hurts more than helps?
>>96461895it looks fine
>>96461078>Playing Orks>Not expecting to be wiped out like NPC chaffAnon?
>>96461078>>96461126what is with this general and this FFXIV overlap
>>96461078sex with Krile
>>96461814That's correct it didn't happen, but it should have.
>>96461895>icon on the plasma dudeOf all the fucking models it's on the hazardous weapons guy.
>>96461747>>96461750Nope, he's just been chilling in the back of my display case while I've been working on my secondary faction :X
>>96461823A project that I eventually want to do is a GSC army where it's just regular humans but their all union thugs.Not certain what i'll do for the more mutated GSC units, but i'm leaning towards the necromunda gangs, like purestrain as a bunch of methed-out offshore fifo's
>>96461891Speed paints and contrasts are interchangeable
>>96461919If GSC had suicide units it's be the peak insurgent faction. They even have the technicals/bikes for it
>>96461927Then is "You shouldn't have bought contrasts to begin with" in regard to buying that type of paint, or just buying it from GW?
>>96461928Every faction should have suicide unit. We currently only have two: Spore mines and bomb squigs
>>96461816lmao if u don't understand the lore just say that lil bro
>>96461907And if people don't stop saying it did happened, it'll happen again.
>>96461939And while we are at it, the Kin of the Leagues of Votann don't fuck too. Their cloning facilities are bugging out, so their numbers are decreasing.Which brings to question what's the point of having women Kin?
>>96461902I dunno, why did they put Fulgrim in FFXIV?
>>96461931I'm not that anon, I like contrasts quite a bit, and I like speed paints quite bit. But they are pretty much the same quality and work about the same. I think that as long as you're using contrasts and speed paints the way they are intended that you'll have a fine time learning.
Post Games!!!
>>96461946That's not fulgrim, that's a well written compelling villain with a good design
>>96461949True. He's also sexier than Fulgrim
>>96461948Got folded by Ultras the other day. I’m having a harder and harder time not being salty these days.
>>96461978I’ll repost my cleaning up some unattended dustbins as well.
>>96461948>>96461978>>96461984>T-Sportfags btfo!
>>96461078Funny because I'm dominating with Orks in my Tyrannic war Crusade here's some ideas2x tankbustas in a trukk with the upgrade to get +1 bs and 14" move, 10x flash gitz and mega mek with mek kaptin enh with stealth upgrade and fnp 6 (slap em in any detachment), turn 1 alpha strike 6 inch charge with a weirdboy+20boyz+wboss with the +2 charge strat and +1 charge upgrade, wboss with ap -3 dam 3 putting stealth on the unit (now legendary with ignore invuln relic can go with alpha strikers), t13 battlewagon to stat checkDon't be fooled there's nothing narrative about crusade it's the ultimate waacfags paradise
>>96462002Who?
>>96462008he's trying to make himself relevant, ignore him
>>96462008
>>96462011What did you just say?
>>96461936That is super weird that the game about a a militant theocracy, fighting mostly other groups of insane religious freaks that nobody has suicide units.It doesn't make sense for every army to have suicide units though.
>>96462006NTA but why do people like Tankbustas? They seem pretty fucking mid from what I can tell; although maybe at S9 they're pretty good at busting Termies.
I wanna make an army and play on Tabletop Sim (4 fun) on the Discord.What should I build first and how many points?T-Sons, Necrons? Is it too powergamey to do Imp/Chaos Knights? I just wanna try some 40k on the table, not perfect a tournament list or anything
>>96462035I wouldn't call it building an army if you're playing tts. Just pick whatever sounds cool since the models dont matter to you and ask your opponents whether they want to play 1k, 2k, or 3k.
>>96461944Never met a hot midget?
>>96462068Well you still gotta build a list, I guess.Do most people just play the same list? Is there a single head to head game free of netdecking at every level?
>>96462034I don't run them so much now in normal games but they can use their once per battle to easily pop a rhino or chunk something that another unit can clean upThey also work with SAG mek and convey their +1 hit and wound to him AND their once per battle, which gives Orks an option to potentially fight over firing lanes which was huge and I took 2x until the points hike. Like you say they can easily threaten terminator profiles from the safety of a trukk and they become a lot more useful in crusade where it's easier to get the +1 to bs/hit
>>96462072Most people play completely different lists based mostly on the models they think are cool. The only people netlisting are tourney players
>>96461944>the moment they aren't required for reproduction anon wants to eliminate womenUnabashedly homosexual
>>96462084>he is not enlightened re UtopiaVolumes of the mind, not perversions of the feet.
what are some interesting ways to spice up basing beyond glueing bits of plastic and slapping some texture paint and some shades/dryrbrush on it?Im having trouble coming up with interesting basing ideas beyond:>Desert base with cacti and plants>Lava base with flows and mordant earth>Fancy palace tiles and marble basing
>>96462107Do some fun water effects
>>96460837It's the 1st option on Equip All Squads With?
>>96462081I thought people might play 40K on table because they liked the mechanics of it. LikeLike as a wargame, that it's fun and a cool scifi fantasy setting...But all you guys do is post about painting minis! My whole life is a lie
>>96462114Wow that looks nice
>>96461902>Radical Inquisitor lobotomizes a Greater Daemon and uses occult rituals to transfer his soul into its body, believing that his superior willpower will allow him to control it>It works
>>96462080Fair enough. I like putting my SAG in lootas because of the similar threat range; kinda my version of Lascannon devs.
>>96462130lucius could NEVER
>>96462114I would but I dont really wanna mess with resin pours and such. Painting water sounds like it'd fail miserably too.
>>96462114How do I git gud with fake water?
>>96462147vallejo still water and transparent paints like inks/contrasts
>>96462133>breaks the Laer Blade in half and starts running around with Silence just so he can get into another fight with Ciaphas CainSurprised ADB didn't write him
>>96462157don't insult the best final fantasy character in any game like that
>>96462133>Puritans eventually put down the Inquisi-Daemon, deeming it utterly heretical>But the Radical's soul is utterly changed due to having been transferred to a Daemon body, rendering it immortal and allowing him to possess dead bodies>Radical proceeds to go on a campaign to find the most powerful body he can acquire, all while obsessively hunting for the Puritan Lord Inquisitor who duelled and killed his Daemon body
>>96462162Tyranid player detected.That was a pretty low fucking blow though, I'll never mention his dogass name again
>>96462175such a good fucking scenecalling out that blue-haired fuccboiendwalker was pure fucking ludokino as a zenos apologist from 2017
>>96462187I will admit, he's the nigga I love to hate. And in a meta sense he's correct.
>>96462193I was onboard with him from day 1 lmaoI said yes to his offer to team up in SB even though I knew it wouldn't happenI was salty as hell that you couldn't tell zero he was a friend
>>96462121Jump pack is there, but not autocannons.Beautiful oldhammer Chaos Marines, btw. (Knightmare Minis came out with a few new sculpts in that style)
>>96462127>>96462137>>96462147Thanks kings, that's actually not resin it's paint. It's dark reaper, with some blue shapes stipple on randomly, and then 3-5 coats of gw ways tone green technical followed by ardcoat just over the flat surface of the base
damn tau fire warriors look like that?
>>96462221I missed that assuming that surely Devastator would have Autocannons. While this is unrealistic I'd love to see James spend an edition doing more ancient model interpretations from this era instead of bloating out new units. Eleventh Edition with a new kill team enhanced unit update sprue and two to three RT-3e sculpt reimaginings per faction instead of the bloat would be neat.
>tfw playing against world eaters for the first time todaythe mans got a few forgefiends, eightbound & hellbrutes, is there anything i should target first?
>>96462308try to kill his helbrutes at range
>>96462308Kill everything with guns asap to get rid of them,after kite everything else while taking potshots
>>96462246Waystone green? Ive never even seen this paint before.
>>96462310>>96462317>tfw playing a melee armyj u s t
>>96462319It's for gemstones traditionally, it's just a contrast paint with a shit ton of gel medium. Very similar working properties to blood for the blood god. Pic related isn't mine but is a good reference of what it does over various undercoats
>>96462332Just lose then, you're fighting one of the stronger melee armies, and he's supplementing it with high damage shooting. You're going to have to be better than him on movement and threat assessment or he's going to bend you over the table and make you bounce and moan on it.
>>96462276Yeah, both Fantasy and 40k abandoned highly individualized, properly-Chaosy Chaos Warrios/Chaos Marines early on. Can understand the reasoning, sort of (at least for 40k, not for fantasy), but still unfortunate. >While this is unrealistic I'd love to see James spend an edition doing more ancient model interpretations from this era instead of bloating out new units. Keep thinking like this, and it'll eventually lead you to ending up among the Discord Raiders.
>>96462342Just a heads up, namedropping your ebin trolling club is avatarfagging
in your opinion 40kg what army is the most fun to play casually with friends?
>>96462347Orkz, nids, custom marine chapters/ warbands
>>96462344>OH NOES
>>96462347Daemons. I literally don't pay attention to anything except when I roll saves and when I roll attack-related shit. AP is meaningless to me so I can easily shoot the shit with friends.
>>96462347/yourdudes/
>>96462347orks and csm for meI mean to play my dark eldar more but they feel a bit too swingy, at least at the pretty casual table with mates
>>96460128There's no point in engaging with the fisher pincer guy.
how the FUCK is a new person expected to build paint purchase and learn how to play an army? the barrier of entry to this hobby seems sky high. im still not even done building my army bc I ran out of money
>>96462410you're engaging with him by replying to that post
>>96462412A new person isnt supposed to jump straight to 2k. Buying a combat patrol and adding to it slowly is how it's supposed to be done.
>>96460101If it was made by GW or has GW's approval, it is canon.
>>96462412Combat patrol or kill team are a good way to start playing smaller games these days, but really just ask people if they want to play smaller point games.
>>96462412I wont pretend the initial investment isnt highish because it it, but you're best of just buying a squad and a small paintset and seeing if you like the painting part first anywayafter that if you do then build your army. GW prices are too high but even that aside honestly this hobby is decent at a $$$ to time spent ratio if you enjoy it
>>96462412Tbh I just offer to teach people with my shit. I don't have a lot (1k of 2 armies, more or less), but throwing dice is army agnostic and may be enough for people to see if investing is wise.As much of a slur as it is here, maybe TTS? The entry barrier for GW is retardedly high.
>>96462124Yeah this is a modeling hobby. The game just exists to give you something to do with your cool guys. If you want some mathematically solved hyper technical game then go play chess, or go!, or shogi, or mahjong. The game is fun, but it's fun because it's a cool cinematic experience not because it's a perfectly balanced game, or hyper competitive, or built with the concept of keeping individual strats and armies viable long term. Everything changes every 3 months or so, so what was good in the fall generally won't be good in the winter, and what was good in the winter generally won't be good in the spring, and so on and so forth. And generally at any given time there is one list that is way too strong. This is not too much of a bad thing because it takes a while to build and paint an army, and by the time you paint up 2kpts you usually only have a couple months before it gets rebranded by the dataslate. My schizo theory is that gw know this serves two purposes1. Waacfags will buy a new army every 3 months if it means they can win, and will just build and paint it like shit to get it done>everyone else gets the luxury of running whatever they want, and only occasionally will they end up having a handful of broken units, and only for a short time. Which means they can work on their dudes slowly and carefully without getting bummed out that their friends don't want to play against themThis keeps people buying stuff, but this also has the benefit of allowing you to run the guys you think are cool, without having to spend the rest of your life being called a waacfag by your friends
>>96462448mahjong isn't mathematically solvable
>>96462412>he doesn't know"This hobby" is buying GW products, not playing games or even painting.
>>96462410I don't know that there's any point responding to bait from 7 hours ago
Is a 4% price increase such a big deal or surprise? Inflation affects everything.
>>96462462i can't help it. any box that i buy i try to have assembled and painted within two weeks. would honestly have more models of j weren't a poorfag
>>96462477People just need something to whine about next time they go "just look" at the LGS before pussyfooting over a box of Marines they inevitably buy on the way out.
>>96462456I wouldnt know, all i know is a Chinese lady at work spent 6 hours trying to teach me just via verbal instructions and that shit was flying through the stratosphere over my head
>>96462456I have a chinese uncle that says otherwise
>>96462477>decapitated frog posting
>>96462477Secondaries love a new excuse for why they can't start playing and how its all someone elses fault. I mean look at this dude >>96462462 claiming the hobby isn't about playing or painting lmao
>>96462492Sorry I don't know what that means.
>>96462412Lad just go slow its not a race. Just pay attention to the things in your list, if they go oop make sure you start downloading the legends datasheets once an edition or so just to have them on hand. If it takes you ages to paint then it takes you ages. As long as you're having fun painting that's all that matters. If you feel the need to learn about the game right fucking now then go online and watch some battle reports, or play with some gay grey shit for a few games while you're working on stuff
>>96462492Is this like the chechnyan version of the boiled frog concept?
>>96462462go to your /v/ thread, secondary.
>>96462418What is this new bit where you just post random Japanese peoples stuff from twitter
wheelchairs in 40k when
>>96462518I like to share cool things
>>96462462That's a funny self report. This is the /40kg/ equivalent to announcing loudly in a crowded elevator that you have been shitting your pants your entire adult life
>>96462496>>96462509The famous "if you only increase the temperature a little bit at a time you can boil a frog alive" experiment was in fact performed on a decapitated frog.A normal frog jumps out of the water when it gets uncomfortably hot.
>>96462520This thing is retarded and not in a cool 40k way, just in a retarded idea way
>>96462521Understandable, have a nice day.Maybe link in the future.
>>96462527Fiiiinehttps://x.com/kamakura370/status/1963030931016712327
>>96462525Oh I see. I don't like price hikes either but when the cost of living goes up everything else tends to do so too. It's terrible but that's just how the economy works.
>>96462525Imagine if instead the phrase was "Even a headless frog will jump out of a boiling pot"
My opinion on vaginataur will change so long as he makes a lord of skull that can float in the air.
>>96462525Interesting if true, but also the only people it's priced out are the people who don't need more expenses to make their lives harder. This hobby is pretty reasonable provided you make a wage that keeps you secure. We will absolutely see a decrease in players from the lower classes. But this has been a premium hobby for a long time. If you are stressing out at the price of eggs, or milk right now, you do not make enough for it to be a smart idea to participate in this hobby. Every hobby sees a dip in hobbyists during recessions with the exceptions of hobbies that help take the load off your bank account like small scale farming, baking, cooking, etc. This does fucking suck, for everyone, but this is the reality of an economy that ebbs and flows. This is what being an adult is. Realizing that unless you set yourself up right, everything is not tuned for you to afford it is part of growing up.
>want to make a themed SM army>look up infernus marines>look at salamanders detachments, forgefathers looks good>see vanguard vets can do hand flamers, awesome>look at legends units>mortis dread can use twin inferno cannonsI suddenly don't care about legends anymore. I want to try this.No clue what the rest can be filled with. Flamers preferably. Centurion assault squad sucks hard dicks. "Oh you get a few flamers among bolters" isn't good enough. I'm thinking melee to fill the rest out, which is roughly 500 points.
>>96462554I'm sorry, your opinion on fooking wot bruv?
>>96462558Centaur vagina i thinkHorse pussy
>>96462558Vashtor
>>96462175>>96462187>>96462193>>96462207Fags
>>96462556Assault int sergeants get hand flamers too. Contemptors can also take two cc claws, with flamers which fit into your part flamer part fister army. Also mortis dreads are so rad, one day I want one of each. I think jump packers get hand flamers too but I dunno how many
I finally got around to building the blightlords I've had for a minute and I'm in awe at how CHONKY they are. They look a lot heftier than Deathshrouds, it's great. Especially this guy if you build him with the axe rather than the sword.
>>96460018This is basically every hobby nowadays. Manchildren have money, kids do not. And there are a lot more manchildren than kids anyway.
>>96462575I'll have to scratch build a dreadnought to see if I can just make them out of sprue. Having three of these would be a morale boost.
>>96462569i think vashtorr is cool. The reveal trailer of all the garbled speech was low effort but sold me on the technodemon theme. I do think vashtorr should have big tits and a fat ass though and should take over computers by bullying the servitors attached to them
