ELF TITS
How long until those speed paint markers come out? I plan to move to them exclusively if they're any good. I hope it's soon.
>>96503822>unironically falling for sloptube shilling
All the time
>>96503833I like how you kept the original filename
So basically:>Necrons have good lore but don't get enough of it>Eldar lore has them losing so much it feels like the writers hate them>Ork lore doesn't exist except in the books written for other factions>Tau lore either has them being hyper-competent or complete retards with no in-between>Imperium lore rarely if ever has any actual stakes involved for the Imperium
>>96503822I paint all my models exclusively by chewing ochre and blowing it into my models. It's the only legitimate method of painting, anything newer is for hacks.
I'm glad Dark Eldar fans are happy and got what they deserved.
>>96503859the new archon's kinda shit but Malys is alright. Better with the veil though
>>96503852>Ork lore doesn't existNEWFAG ALERT NEWFAG ALERTWHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BUDDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Who else needs a codex?
>>96503852>>96503872He's NEWHe's A TOURISTHe's BORN PAST THE YEAR 2000
>>96503875Me
>>96503850i didnt know emo asian boys from 2004 could become sororitas but slay
>>96503875Harlequins and Chaos Daemons for a start.
>>96503852He's FELTED by LUSCIOUS ORK LORE!
>>96503852Orks have some pretty good books and lore, its Tyranids who have all their stories written from the other sides PoV
>>96503852He's RETARDEDHe's DENTEDHe's COMPLETELY IGNORANT OF THE ORIGINS OF 40K
This thread has been fortified.
>posts 2.5 pages of lore>thinks this proves the other guy wrong
>>96503896>>96503888>>96503878>>96503872settle the fuck down, the new Ork codexes don't have any of this shit in them. It's not his fault GW doesn't put lore in codexes anymore
>>96503899Elaborate
>>96503901Seeing as it's a direct contradiction of his primary claim of>Ork lore doesn't exist except in the books written for other factionsIt absolutely proves him wrong, ya dented dummy
It has been (almost) ten bours since Malys was revealed.There has been no porn of her.The Dark Eldar refresh is officially a failure.
>>96503802Mostly Dark Eldar, there aren’t any exodite as or craftworlds near them out by the Ghoul Stars.>Rain of Perfidy Late-M38>Following repeated raids on pilgrim fleets travelling through the region by unknown enemies the Coal Hearts hid a number of their own personnel and vessels among the fleets, hoping to draw out their foe. Initially this effort met little success with one of the pilgrim fleets disappearing in its entirety despite the additional guardians. Some months later a single vessel of alien origin was detected at the edge of the Quartinus Valenor system in a neighbouring sector. When the ship was boarded several Coal Heart marines and a handful of civilians were found and the true foe was revealed. >The survivors on the ship had been captured by the mysterious enemy and barely managed to escape, seizing the alien vessel in the attempt. Drukhari raiders were using an unnamed and uninhabited world in the Ghoul Stars as a base to spread their influence through the region. The Coal Hearts responded in full force and engaged in a brutal struggle with the Aeldari pirates. The battle ended with one of the alien’s own vessels being boarded and deorbited into the webway gate they were using to ferry their plunder to Commoragh and reinforce themselves. >While many of the aliens escaped retribution, those who remained were systematically tracked down and eradicated. The Kabal of the Obsidian Serpeant has never forgiven this slight and they have engaged in several attacks on isolated Coal Heart forces in the millenia since. Taking particular delight in raiding adjacent but less important regions where the Coal Hearts operate, using greater enemies to ensure the Astartes cannot focus on eradicating the pirates. Mocking messages about the Astartes’ powerlessness are left behind, typically spelled out in the corpses of those left behind.
I'm just getting into Adepta Sororitas. I decided to make a Bringers of Flame list, and I want to put a Palatine leading a squad of 10 Battle Sisters. What would be a good loadout for the battle sisters? Currently I have:- Sister Superior w/ Power Weapon and Condemnor Boltgun- Battle Sister w/ Simulacrum Imperialis- Battle Sister w/ Multi-Melta- Battle Sister w/ Meltagun- 6x Battle Sister w/ Boltgun(List aims to be thematic around Celestine, for casual and narrative play. I don't care about competitive play, but also don't want my list to be completely stupid either)
>>96503901It's also old enough to drink in the US
>>96503906New ork codices still have ork specific lore written from ork PoVs, so that anon is STILL wrong and A DUMB DENTED RETARDWHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BUDDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
>>96503899bae a cutie
>>96503917Of their victims* fucking hack.
>>96503833>>96503841It's because it's you the owner posting it again hoping for someone to compliment it.
>>96503802>Do /yourdudes/ come into contact with eldar often?/my dudes/ are a sub-sector in Nihilus with a three (soon to be four) way war between my Eldar dudes, my Imperial dudes, my Chaos dudes, and my Necron dudes.
>>9650390740k almost had an official collab with that vtuber in the pic
>>96503822aren't the AK ones the same thing but cheaper?
>>96503918Did you drybrush that model?
>>96503937Nobody's gullible enough to fall for this pathetic ACTUAL falseflag lmao
>>96503941No the AK ones are normal opaque paint
>>96503939Oh that would have been sick
>>96503918I'm going to be honest with you anon, this looks like shit.There are mold lines down her leg, hair and gun. It looks extremely dusty from the drybrushing and it has ruined the look of the hair
>>96503918squad loadouts literally don't matter in practice, which is why GW got rid of space marine tactical squads. pick whatever one-of weapon you think is coolest.
>>96503943Yes, I did some drybrushing for highlights. I need to get a new brush for that though. It's been my first model since taking a 2 year break, so obviously it's going to be a bit rough-looking. But I think it still looks okay enough for the tabletop
>>96503944It is pretty pathetic to be the only one complimenting your stuff and samefagging in general.
>>96503939>The rat>Not Matara, the almost literal Nid
>>96503918It depends on the loadout. Tbh Palatines aren't the best leader for a BSS squad. Cannoness make a better warlord or just leader for them. Or the time tested combo of Judith on her big hover chair + imagifier to make them impossible to shoot off the board. Lethal Hits doesnt really help meltas that much because they are so low volume in their attacks.If you want to have the palatines lead something the best unit for them is a squad of novitiates with melee weapons, sister repentia squad for insane damage but total glass canon, or have her lead a squad of sacresants who actually can really benefit from the Lethal hits and make a great bodyguard unit for the palatine.Of course, the palatine becomes even stronger in army of faith, bringers of flame is the shooty detachment and the Palatine is your melee specialist.
>>96503937Its because they didnt like how often anon was posting it so now theyre posting it...more? Idk trolls are retarded.
>>96503931I see chaos is growing in my pants.
>>96503931Bae needs bigger tits.
Tyranids were my second 40k Army and I own 3.5k pts worth of themDespite that I still have never played a game with them.Why? Because I actually have to learn how to play the game. I play DG, C.Knights and Emp KidsWhen I look at how to play Nids online I have to do shit like trading, punishing, board control etc.I cant just do my regular move forward and mongo that wins me most of my gamesMy brain isnt big enough for that
>>96503954The ranged weapons matter on that squad, especially if you take 3 or 4 of them. But yea, mostly true.
>>96503957Welcome back anon!
>>96503967don't bother, you're talking to the retard who keeps posting it to try and poison the well against that model
You vil vuy ze KrootYou vil vield ze Kroot
Got a pile of midhammer stuff from around the early aughts from a dude. Some I'm gonna use for new/current armies but there's 5 grey knights I'm keeping. How should I paint them
>>96503953That's okay. I have a really bad habit of not finishing any miniatures, because the highlighting process is too difficult for me. So "done, but bad" is better than "never done at all" for me.>>96503965To be fair, I picked most of the models just based on what looks cool>>96503978Thank you! Just spend the time finishing up my Palatine. Yeah, it looks like crap, but I am proud of finishing another miniature
Does anyone use these kind of holders for airbrushing? Are they useful?
>>96503996I got one but I ended up using paperclips and cork more than I ever fussed with the clamps on that thing
>>96503995>To be fair, I picked most of the models just based on what looks coolI know, I'm just letting you know. Nothing says you can't model your palatine as a canoness as well. Sisters are really versatile with a little kitbashing or swapping parts around.
Imperium really needs a kick in the nuts to bring them down to size. Think about it. If the War for Armageddon was lost, the Imperium would've lost 1 hive world. Out of 32,380.It would've lost .003% of its hive worlds.The War for Armageddon didn't fucking matter, like at all. Nothing that happens to the Imperium fucking matters. It is literally too big to fail.
>>96503996Yeah I use these sometimes. I usually just blu-tac stuff to a cork or something though
>>96503852>it feels likeNo anon it doesn't "feel like", the guy in charge of eldar lore literally said he hates elves.
>>96504013>out of 32,380pssssh, nah, it's more like 100,000 hive worlds total
>>96503852>Tau lore either has them being hyper-competent or complete retards with no in-betweenThis one's very true. The minuscule Tau Empire being able to birth a minor chaos god is just plain retarded though.
>>96504001>>96504014I got 30 lads in subassembly that I'll use an airbrush to paint their armor, which saves a lot of time but the logistics are an issue. For individual models I got a single handle but for batch painting I'm open to ideas.
>>96504005I like the looks of the Sacresants. What loadout would suit them? One spear on the Sacresant Superior and 9 sisters with halberds?
>>96503831Mad because bad
>>96503833Whoa you sure showed me
>>96503802>TQMy scion force deploys to support sol blades, so they spend most of their time fighting Leviathan, but we have an eldar player in the crusade and we've both had to fight and team up a few times, so there's one Autarch we have interaction with if nothing else.
>>96504033>The minuscule Tau Empire being able to birth a minor chaos god is just plain retarded though.but anon, that's nothing. The Siege of Terra managed to birth the big three Chaos Gods. Yes, that singular battle on a single planet did that. Because the Emperor accidentally shattered time and space when he was fighting Horus, and all the negative emotions of the Siege were shot back in time to the creation of the universe, giving rise to the primordial Chaos gods. Yes, this means that Chaos created itself via a time paradox, somehow existing prior to having existed so that it could be the cause of its own creation. Yes, it is retarded. Yes, it is all Abnett's fault.
>>96504058>The Siege of Terra managed to birth the big three Chaos Gods.What youtuber did you get this shitty theory from
>>96504058Expanding on the Horus Heresy was a mistake.
>>96504058>The Chaos gods are re-retconned as being from terra despite there being more psychically powerful races in no short supply for 60 million yearsI don't understand how some people are as bad at writing as they are, and why multi-billion companies keep hiring them?
>>96504087This isn't actually from the books, he just made it up.There is nothing in The End and the Death about the chaos gods getting created on terra
>>96504082It's called the End and the Death Part 3 anon
>>96504099Yes, I have read it.Nowhere is this said, implied or even hinted at.I want to know what it is that makes you think that it's the case.
>>96503859Dark Eldar are in a place where their plastics are basically perfect, the new characters both look good but they aren't doing the guardians thing where they take a $40 10 man squad and make it into a $65 10 man squad for next to no improvement.Kabalites still look great, wracks are still a fantastic kit, raiders/ravagers are packed full of soul. Incubi were always the odd man out because of their resin but that got fixed with their plastic kit years ago.I'd rather they added new units to Dark Eldar than refresh any of the existing kits, and that's what happened.My dream is still for a plastic tantalus, though.
>>96504105illiterate
>>96504095>man who hasn't read End and the Death Part 3 pretending like he haslol>>96504105>Yes, I have read it.Then how did you miss the entire segment where time and space literally unravel around the Emperor and Horus, the combined energies of the Siege of Terra leaking into the Warp and seeding it with the primordial energies of Chaos?
>>96504111>>96504114Show me literally anything, you can do that, cant you?
>>96504110I really dont like her armor
Honestly thought this was a slot machine at firstI have a problem
Feel Like Pure Shit Just Want Her Back x
>>96504127Please don't give GW any ideas
>>96504143I really want to see what the slots are like on Terra
>>96503802TQ>That one time a phoniex lord was ganked by a half dead night lords team
>>96504047Why do you respond to him?
>>96504127LETS GO GAMBLING
>>96504119Do you really not understand that part? What did you think was happening when it talks about time itself shattering from their psychic power clashing, anon?
>>96504110i feel like the haemonculus should at least get a new model though to be fair other than the talos/cronos the coven line never appealed to me.
>>96504033>a minor chaos godIt's not really a chaos god, just a warp entity.Think of it like Hashut for the Chaos Dwarves.
>>96504162>HashutFirst, you shouldn't assume people know what Warhammer fantasy is. Second Hashut is minor chaos god
>>96504177Like Moloch, right?

>>96504157Time stood still, space was fucked with. I am not at all saying it didn't. All the wacky teleporting from a library to the Vengeful spirit was very clear.I'm asking why is it that you think that seeded the chaos gods?
>>96504177Okay well either way, the emphasis is on the minor part. They're not part of the Big Four, they're insignificant outside of their small domain where they're worshipped.
>>96503961This was before Matara debuted, GW was in talks with covercorp to have some cross-promotional streams with their Chaos vtuber to hype up the upcoming 9th ed codex.
>>96504181Eldar get squatted and fabius bile invents primaris CSM
>>96504180Is that a typo?
would buying a 2nd copy of the base 10e starter set be a decent idea for tyranids? I just want more cheap infantry
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
Shut up!Shut up!Shut up!Post models!
>>96504207If you just want more Termagants you can usually find 10 + a ripper swarm for like $20 on ebay. Hell there's a listing right now asking $30 for 20 with free shipping right now.
Imperial agents expansion is coming!! I can feel it!!>TQMy inquisitors find genestealers cooler>>96503918Meltas for sisters!! Anything with heat/flames involved!! >>96503892I feel a lot of Ork lore is similar to Tyranid lore in the sense that you hardly get stories about them and most of their lore is centered around their society/anatomy and how it all functions and works in neat ways. The nids with their xenobiological descriptions of bioweapons and stonach acids and the orkz with their squiggs and scrapheep contraptions. I haven't read any ork books though so I might be biased towards this viewpoint, I heard very horrid things about that one with like the Kunning Kruelty or whatever from that obnoxious author with the shitty mohawk I can't remember the name of. Haven't heard much negativity for anything else though>>96503852You can have kino imperium books it's just that the imperium is so damn big that something like the siege of vraks wouldn't affect the imperium much and for anything to have stakes you would need like a edition defining catastophre or some really crazy ass Mary Sue shit with superpowered protagonists that aren't as interesting to read about because of it
>>96504212not for another edition at least
>>96503802>Do /yourdudes/ come into contact with eldar often?I've actually been mulling that over. /mydudes/ are orks led by a particularly eccentric warboss who has only gotten worse after half his face got blasted off and replaced with bioniks I'm using the Mozrag Skragbad model as the base of my kitbashed Warboss, so I was considering having him have vague memories/visions of the War in Heaven and be an ally to Eldar as per "da auld akkords". So while his WAAAGH would have no problem warring with eldar he'd sooner side with them first, especially if the enemy in question are necrons.I dunno, I just like the idea of an ork warboss who casually asserts the ancient alliance as if it's the most natural thing in the world. Kind of like pic related.
>>96504153More like she shredded them with minimal effort and then fell for the old "hidden grenade" asspull at the last second.
>>96504213People shit on these whenever I post them because theyre monopose but I like em.
>>96504212How do dark eldar even reproduce? Having sex and having children and raising them in any way doesn't seem to really gel when your entire society is made of cartoon villains
>>96504213my eventual collage submission
>>96504231They grow babies in vats
>>96504231Usually only the nobles reproduce naturally, most of the other time cloning and regrowth is involved.
>>96504231They are mostly grown in vatsNatural birth is only for the hyper powerful and influential and it's mostly just a flex.
>>96504218I live in Canada so the ebay options end up costing more than half a starter set
>>96504238He stole the timbs and went jogging, damn
>>96504231They have "trueborn", which are naturally born elites, and "tankborn". The latter are exactly what they sound like.
>>96504213Postan>>96504228These guys are cool, you should buy a box of the corpsegrinder guys and do more of them>>96504154Means I get to post my dude more. Win win in my book
>>96504188Hashut is the god of tyranny. I think he'll be pulling quite a few souls even with-out direct worship.Hashut can do things, many very impressive things.This a problem, I don't want the Tau'vesa or whatever it's called doing things. I hope it ends up like the other two 40k minor gods and just evaporates, and is this weird shit background detail they forgot to retcon. That's not going to happen though, it's being set-up so it can do things, and that's bad because it's existence is stupid.
>>96504190They could at least pick one of the talents that actually knew what 40k is. Calli painted on stream which, even if it was just trend-chasing, at least means she owns models.
>>96503995>based on what looks coolif you asked based on whats look cool than why are you asking for game advice??
>>96504231Like everyone else said, they raise the in cloning vats.Dark Eldar DO have romantic feelings and will actually form some amount of friendships/bonds/relationships. They're just all subject to the usual level of backstabbing and histrionic over-emotionality that they will be understandably unstable, on top of them all being sadists even to those they love.But the point is: They're not skaven.
>>96504268True, but that probably was just GW/covercorp autism about having a chaos related talent be the one involved.
/my dudes/ are eldar so yeah
>>96503868>the new archon's kinda shitThey gave use picrel back (but better), which everybody said they liked more than the last sculpt, and mf's still complain.
primaris chaos marines when?
>>96504257Thanks anon. Yours looks great
>>96504224Cope however you want, your 'Primarch Equivalent' got squashed like a bug.
>>96504305>gave use picrel back (but better)>(but better)X
>>96504305This is the one time Ill say old good and nu bad
>>96503990What changed to make kropt meta? Are we entering a horde meta or something
>>96504319aren't phonix lords chapter master equivalant?
Lorefags are the only thing worse than paintfags.
>>96504319>Primarch power scalingSorry, anon. I didn't know you were "special needs".
>>96504326Nothing changed. People are kitting out for Knight meta and can't handle 200 Kroot.
>>96504341>lorego back
You can't just join gene stealer cults and you have to be born into it?
>lorefags
>>96504347You can become infected i believe.
>>96504326It turns out there are three types of skew list. Your list can't tech for all three. One of those three only requires painting 10 models and using 45 minutes of your clock to be good. It gets teched against because it's the one you'll see, even if it's worse than the other two skew options.
>>96504354idk much about GSC but is it like your kids will look like mutants or will you eventually look like one?
>>96504181Eldar are due a pity model edition for 11th, probably just karandras
>>96504322Just put the horned helmet on this guy and it's the same shit, only with more detail and a pose slightly more dynamic than "just standing there...menacingly!"
>>96504354Yeah but by the primarch genestealer, and then you become a first generation hybrid which isn't a good thing. You can't just pick up a gun and start shooting Imperials, and get hooked into the broodmind.
>>96504374>the tactical rock is good now because of dynamic posing
>>96504319Primarchs are like 300 pts on the table top, Phoenix lords are like 100-130
>>96504316What practical purpose would that serve? The new csm are already rescaled in height.
>>96504347You can join the Patriarch's brood, you just won't be a hybrid. Genestealer's Kiss allows the patriarch to mind control people.>>96504365Not you but your kids will become hybrids, the level of which depends on who infected you. Patriarch's off-spring will be 1st gen Acolytes, 1st gen acolyte's off-spring will be 2nd get acolytes and so on. The off-spring of 4th Neophytes will result in Purestrains Genestealers, who will go across the galaxy to become their own patriarchs and restart the cycle.
>>96504305>>96504322>>96504323Let's review>PostureNew has a more dynamic pose, slightly larger tactical rock. Generally a more open stance, maybe a little easier to paint.>OptionsNew one has multiple options for heads, including the old helmet, as well as weapons, and two torso options for male and female. The loincloth also has two options, one crisp and one ragged, and it looks like two options for details to go over the cloth as well?>DetailsNew one is missing the dagger on the belt. The face emblem on the shoulderpad has been changed, but honestly would likely look fine if painted solid like the old one. I guess the mantle is missing the fur? Maybe?Honestly they could have done far, FAR worse.
>>96504335If we want to talk power wise, they're barely Captain level.'Importance' wise they're Eldar Primarchs.
>>96504110I love Archon Shadowheart
Couldn't I kill a Space Marine Captain if I shot him in the neck with like a 20mm?
>>96504426Yeah, easily.
>>96504374>Just put the horned helmet on this guy and it's the same shit, lol no>only with more detail and a pose slightly more dynamicI don't know who the fuck ever asked for tactical rocks, monopose, and more extraneous detail than a Final Fantasy character, but I hope they suffer.
do this cape seem much for a vanvet sergeant
>>96504426You could kill a Space Marine Captain if you shot him in the neck with a normal rifle round. The trick is finding yourself in a situation where the author let's you shoot him at all.
>>96504426Without a helmet on any caliber could kill a space marine, their skulls aren't made of steel.
>>96504434You weren't going to buy it anyway.
>>96504440>any caliber could kill a space marinewrong
>>96504440You fool, a Marine with his helmet off gets the Plot Advantage, causing bullets to randomly fly around him and only hit the heavily armored areas where they can't penetrate.
>>96504447is this your final cope?
>>96504450Are you saying a 9mm to the eye will do nothing?
>>96504458it'll blind the eye only
>>96504436Nah I think it works
>>96504434I already have like 5 different Archons, so they'd have to give me a real banger to get me to buy.I'm mildly considering the Shadowheart Malys.Shoulders seem too wide, but maybe maybe if I can clip those massive shoulder pads, I can make it work.
>>96504269Because why not? There's no reason not to talk about something I like and get views from other people
So a lore accurate battlesuit is basically an Armored Core...
>>96504412>options for femaleAm I honestly expected to accept this as a "female" from the supposedly greatest 28mm miniature company in the world?
>>96504479Yes
>>96504479>armored coreNot even fucking close. Crisis cuits are barely even mecha.
>>96504479They're marine sized and not building sized but other than that yeah. It's surprising a lot of people get mad when they're compared to marines but the sheer versatility of those things is absolutely insane
>>96504479Armored Cores are actually effective in melee combat so no.
>>96503918Good load out for the squad, you can also run a dialogus in that squad to sneak in an auto wound melta shot with a miracle dice, not sure how efficient it is points wise but it always pisses off my opponent so I'll always bring it.
>>96504496uwot
>>96504496It's hilarious that anyone would try and compare them. Crisis suits canonically are faster, more agile, stronger and more durable than a marine. They're more durable than terminator armor for crying out loud.
>>96504483what do you consider mecha?
>>96504455Not cope, it's just a fact.
>>96504436not sold on this pose 2bh o&t anonit kinda looks like he's pointing in befuddlement, saying "it was YOU?"
>>96504447I would buy it, if was good.As evidenced by the unnecessarily large number of archon models I have.

>>96504528These look great but aren't they a bitch to put together? Been meaning to pull the trigger on them but I hear bad stuff.
>>96504479depends on which battle suit your talking about, but potentially yes, depending on the piloet of what amored core your comparing too.

>>96504543what about the mecha's in the starship trooper book?
I might buy the high heeled elf slut mini
>>96504496The area where Marines REALLY excel is in indoor fighting, CQB, and boarding actions. This is also the area where the Tau tend to be weakest since they just have to rely on Fire Warriors for this job.That said...Fire Warriors are still a good chunk ahead of most Imperial Guardsmen so they're not totally inept. It's more similar to Space Marines vs Tempestus Scions. The Scions are no Space Marines but they're the best non-augmented infantry you're gonna get.
>>96504480'Eavy Metal cannot paint female faces. They simply don't know how. I'll reserve judgement until I see what people who can actually pain do with it.
>>96504554I think the funniest part of this is that while Eavy Metal can't PAINT faces, Games Workshop the company can at least SCULPT them. New Malys doesn't make me want to kill myself for instance.
>>96504554:0 whoah
>>96504553>Imperial Guardsmen... totally ineptMore training than any modern soldier
>>96504553I still love the fact that tau made breacher squads because whitescars kept boarding tau ship and riding around on bikes through the hall ways.
>>96503996I do but mine are home made from a box of alligator clips stuck on the end of bbq skewers and the "holder" is just a ton of cardboard box offcuts taped together. I use it for painting everything. I only base minis towards the end of painting.
>>96504530Huge pain in the ass. The trick is to build them from bottom up where you position their legs on the base first and then build it up from there. Insta set is also very helpful as it cures superglue instantly.
>>96504564depends on the regimnet.
>>96504554Even ignoring the face, it's still clearly a dude body with some oddly-shaped boob armor tacked on.
>>96504577Women can get muscles if they work out. Do they lose their second X chromosome if they lift too much iron.

>>96504589I'm talking about the archon.
Yeah and what can you guys paint
>>96504538Wrong photo.
>>96504594I can paint your insides white ;)
>>96504577Sure, but that's just the reality of trying to make one kit both sexes. The new Malys looks like it wouldn't be hard to kitbash into a custom female archon. Just a head swap and new left arm.
What edict is the Burb delivering?
>>96504594I can paint robots. I'm a little worried about having to paint actual faces for the first time on my new army, I picked up some guilliman flesh contrast as apparently it works alright.
>>96504564But not particularly good equipment.
>>96504594people here have no leg to stand on when talking about painting faces lmao
if im building an ultramarine army for 2k points is it a waste to run 1 knight as a guest/allied unit? i know they are suboptimal but i just think they are cool.what are some MUST use units for ultras if i want to win a few games eventually? total noob btw not baiting ....

>>96504564Imperial Guard are like North Koreans. They're well-motivated, well-trained, and poorly equipped with shitty tactics and bad leadership.
>>96504646For setting? Not particularly, no. On the table the only army worse than them is GSC and the edge cases (Tyranids and Daemons). The equipment is better than any modern military and better than the majority of Imperial forces.
>>96504656>well-trained>with shitty tactics???
>>96504594i get bullied for posting any models i paint bc i just started collecting and painting this year. its honestly pretty discouraging hearing my models get crapped on all the time.... i just wanna have fun lore battles :(
>>96504665Nobody bullied you for this last two times you posted it you sympathy-baiting fag
>>96504663You can be very well-trained but be trained wrong. For example, the Death Korp of Krieg are some of the scariest WW1 style soldiers you'll ever meet. But they're trained for fucking WW1 style warfare. This, naturally, is not a good matchup for facing the Tau.

>>96504553>indoor fighting, CQB, and boarding actions.O'Kais in War of SecretsAnd Farsight in Crisis of Faith disputes that.
>>96504742Compared to the Imperium, yes. Large sections of the T'au empire (the Tau) have the psychic weight of a tree, and large portions of the human part still worship the Emperor.Yet the False God Emperor barely exists.
>>96504697Marines Malevolent.
>>96504751Name three.
>>96504766The Imperium is the largest empire currently in the galaxy, though it was reduced by half.It's like saying that Iran isn't massive because America exists.
>>96504777Iran is miniscule compared to the Sun.
>>96504765Those are singular individuals with high-grade battlesuits. They are good in close-quarters but they're not reproducible on a mass-scale like Space Marines are.

>>96504808They are no longer prototypes. They are being mass-produced.
Where is the text about the Siege of Terra creating the Chaos Gods? That would change out understanding of 40K profoundly.
>>96504812No we are complaining nations in 40k. If you want a real country analogy the Imperium is like America and the T'au are like Luxembourg.If chaos gods were real, America would make one long before Luxembourg would.
are elder worth considering for a secondary army or should I stick with sisters?
>>96504727Because they fucking suck
>>96504822Fully agree, having primarchs and the emperor speak and act quite normally is very off putting when you have built them up in your head to be these eerie mythological figures of a long gone era.
>>96504845they're way better than plasma pistolslook better too
>>96504843play marines>>96504727bro everyone converted inferno pistols for years. They used to be metal only. Add a flamer tip from a space marine flamer or an IG Cadian flamer

>>96504870Why are we making fun of litteral children.
>>96504213Just finished another unit of hearthguard. With my tiny printed ones I'll now have 20 to use at my will. Now if only they were good...
>>96504883Don't tarnish south koreans and compare them to fish commies. At their core - the Tau are a trash species. Garbage weeb filth to bait mechafags into playing this game. Votann fit better in Warhammer 40k than the TAU
>>96504888The Tau conquered a number of hive worlds.
>>96504843No. Eldar are a heavy investment army that requires heavy commitment, and are significantly poor for low-point games.

>>96504878melta end bitz are as big as an entire heavy bolt pistol, that would look horrible
so at first glance I figured that dark eldar battle force would be good value, but I was thinking in combat patrol prices (which would make sense given how each sku goes for like £25 each)why the utter fuck would anyone pay £150 for 15 year old models

>>96504908Nigga, do you have brain damage? This is about total population.
>>96504897No that's completely wrong. A single hive has billions of people in it.
>>96504889Looks like a glum little mustache man
>>96504612NO CALLING YOUR TOILET THE GOLDEN THRONE
>>96504948some donecromunda is supposed to be the most standard hive city and it only has a billion
>>96504934the tale of Darth [redacted] is a tale we shall not delve into tonight my friend.>he actually got a lot better at art
>>96504902>shit faction>literal shit color schemePottery.
>>96504946No. We are talking about how much is needed to spawn a Chaos God.Hundreds of billions + the other populations of aliens sounds about right.
>>96504926Sister of Blood Angels? If sisters each box of seraphim comes with 4 inferno pistols and that squad usually runs hand flamers to wipe home objective sitters so the infernos are always spare.
Dunno what this argument is about but yes, there are like 30,000 hive worlds and they all have billions to trillions of people.But the Tau also have planets with trillions of people on them now too. Not as many as the Imperium obviously but they use their population much more efficiently.
>>96504948See >>96504935
Reminder.
>>96504913I don't know how people can stick to a single scheme for their whole army. I paid for the whole paint set, I'm using the whole paint set
>>96504594Ghost space marine.
>>96504959That does not sound about right. Whatever it is, it's less than the Imperium whose chaos god regularly gets retconned out.
>>96504962I don't know what they're arguing about either but I'd say there's probably fewer people living in tau hive cities than there are tyranids
>>96504965fuck off t-sportsfag
>>96504965Wahoo!
>>96504975This is also correct.
>>96504915I don't normally shitpost about gw faces but this got me
>>96504993bad trip
>>96504970It sounds right but "god" is a little off. You have demon princes and greater demons with more followers with even personal realms and minor demons.
>>96504951Heidilly ho fellow lamenterino! Feeling a little glum today as usual?
>>96504964OK bitch. Let's see what Lexicanum says>There are often several thousand hives on a single Hive world.https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Hive>The Hive City is five miles in height and home to billions of people.https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Hive_PrimusAre we done? Hive worlds have many, many billions of people.
>>96504975>fewer people living in tau hive cities than there are tyranidsAlright GW. Tyranid chaos god when. We got to make everything chaos so let's get it over with. Rip the band aid off fast.
>>96504957But it's funny
>>96505021I mean that's pretty much what the greater Hive Mind is...
>>96505007Greater Deamons are made by the Chaos gods and only exist as fragments. Everything existing independently in the warp is a Chaos God.
>>96504993She looks like her face is gonna open like in men in black and a tiny grey alien is going to be sitting inside with his little chest rising and falling and he looks up at you and says "orions belt" and dies
>>96505021Tyranids are anti-chaos by nature. For a similar reason, there is no necron Chaos god.
>>96505016Bitch go over the list of hive worlds and their pops. Not some generalised text. And that's wrong. Most hive worlds have a dozen or so hive cities.
>>96505030>hive queen
>>96505067SEX WITH BUGS
Actually how do Fire Warriors and Tempestus Scions stack up against each other anyways.
>>96505070>>96505067>Sex with bugs>Look inside human woman but bug colored
>>96505077Scions are more experienced and deadlier. They are elites often compared to Space Marines.Fire Warriors are just grunts. The edge they have is their tech.
>>96505082>eight limbs>insect jawAnon, have you ever actually seen a human woman?
>>96505100No. They are very scary.
>>96505107Well I mean if you think they have eight limbs and insect jaws, that's understandable.
>>96505107Yeah I heard if they catch you they try to lay eggs in you.
>>96505117Sounds like fun :3
>>96505021Ok so I was gonna make a joke that the GHR is the tyranid chaos god but nids have that fucky shadow that daemons hate so idk if they could even have a god
>>96505060Oh shit, is Warhammer lore inconsistent? No fucking way, this is the first time I'm hearing this!Fuck off secondary
>>96505030Given the way this thread is going I'm just gonna assume this is a vtuber.
>>96505131The thing is, the Chaos gods are made up of the emotions of mortals expressed in the Warp. All the hate coalesced into Khorne, the obsession into Slaanesh, etc. They are gestalt entities created from little bits of uncountable trillions of souls across all space and time.Tyranids have one soul. The hivemind. The Shadow in the Warp is the psychic presence of this unimaginably vast singular entity. So there's nothing to coalesce because it's all in one place already.So you couldn't have a Tyranid Chaos god, but arguably the Shadow in the Warp functions kinda a bit like a Chaos god
>>96505132Nope. It's consistent. Most Hive worlds barely break over 10 B, going by the list.All you have is a poorly worded sentence that the author of the wiki added in.Numbers, on the other hand, don't lie. Go over the list or admit that you are a lorelet.
>>96505149
>>96505153>Nope. It's consistent. >All you have is a poorly worded sentence that the author of the wiki added in.The lines I quoted were cited. Lexicanum is usually pretty solid about that stuff, and you yourself are taking it as a reliable source. So we can assume they are accurately representing the lore.A large hive can have "billons" of people, a hive world can have thousands of hives. Therefore, it's incredibly stupid to say that "no Hive City has over 10 million people" as you did.I hope you take this as an opportunity to learn and grow.
>>96505149Thank God there aren't any 40k vtubers.
>>96505177Nope. The lexicanum often gets wording lore and sometimes adds text that isn't there.The fact that you won't check the list means you conceded the pointI hope you grow some balls and be less autistic.
>>96505150I was under the impression that the Warp and Chaos are technically two different things. Eldar and their gods are masters of the Warp, but not Chaos, but since the birth of Slaanesh Chaos is ascendent in the Warp. It’s how you have parts of the Warp where not even the Chaos gods will go, and it helps the connection to Fantasy where the Winds of Magic and Chaos come from the same source, and careless unsanctioned wizards may accidentally draw power from Chaos and summon demons similar to how unsanctioned Psykers unwittingly summon demons as well.
>>96505186gets wording wrong*
>>96505186I posted quotes with links, bitch. I am undeniably the more honest and thorough person in this argument. The fact that you insist in this way simply proves you are trying to get attention because you want a little kiss.
>>96505178Wasn't there some tau vtuber?and the rat
wrist mounted lightning claws > claw fingers >>>>>>>>>>> brass knuckle lightning clawsFACT
Vtrannie simps leave. You have a whole dedicated board to wallow in your cancerous cringe, make use of it.
>>96505198Nope, you did it. You posted a Lex page with citations.And it doesn't address the main point. It's a deflection from the part that the majority of the named hive worlds across the history of the setting barely break 10 B.
>>96505205claws don't sit right with me when it comes to the black templars desu
>>96505205I generally agree. Lightning claws as fingers are peak aesthetic for chaos though.
>>96505206We need to send letters to GW so they pull copyright on them. Keep the general pure.
>>96505153Numbers are the least consistent part of 40k. Every single one of them is a complete asspull
>>96505211>the majority of the named hive worlds across the history of the setting barely break 10 B.First off, that's simply not true. I do not believe for one moment that a majority of the named hive worlds even have a stated population.
>>96505205Wrist claws are good cuz you can retract them
>>96505227By the way, I downloaded the source and checked it. The lex got it wrong as usual.The section and Page 76 describes only Necromunda and its hives. It doesn't discuss what other hives are like. The text on the lex is fabricated.You fucking cunt.
>lorefagsLol
Are grey knights ferrymen still a thing?

>>96505248
>>96505242the paragraph that the "thousands of hives" line comes from cites two pages, and yet you only posted one. Curious.Almost as if you are being intellectually dishonest.

>>96505327You should try the gw gemstone paints for other colour lenses, they behave the same as bftbg but come in 4 colours rather than 1
>>96505328Slaanesh uses mirrors in his aesthetic, but owing to Tzeentch being all about crystals and reflections, I give it to him.
>>96505328Slaanesh but that's more visible across the aos line

I recently learned about the Combat Patrol magazine. $15 a week and you get some free models. Seems neat.I've exclusively played online and I've been wanting to get into tabletop. Is this a good deal to learn painting, or should I just stick to 3d prints?

>>96505761>I can imagine I'm going to shit the bed when I paint my first model, so I feel like it would be better to fuck up on an army I don't care about than one I do.you can always strip the paint and come back to the early models if you're that unhappy with them.
>>96505761>I figured it would be more for practice.It is better to practice on the minis you actually want to paint. If you fuck up a mini you can just strip and it repaint later.
>>96505768>>96505790I was not aware this was possible.
>>96505761>I've been playing competitively on Tabletop Simulator since 7th Edition.Playing on tts is not at all how it feels to play irl.
If Dark Eldar ever get a refresh, imagine what sort of beauties we'll get. Actual supermodels. How pretty and passing is she? Very hot.
>>96505411It looks pretty alright except for the Rhino. There’s no one that can go inside it on that list cause GW is strange like that. Unless you proxy it as a Impulsor that is.
>>96505178>>96505628There's also an inquisitor vtuber guy
>>96505734>procrastinating on painting>magnetize more modelsIt’s an alright feeling
>>96505761>I've been playing competitively on Tabletop Simulator since 7th Edition.Please leave. Go back to TTS and stay there. You aren't welcome here.
>>96505761>being into the tabletop side of 40k without having a single modelImagine having such cartoonishly terrible taste. People only tolerate the tabletop because it lets them use their cool minis and hang out with friends. The ruleset on its own is fucking terrible, why would you do this to yourself.
>>96505846>>96505864I hang out with friends online. It's fun to shoot the shit in a group chat over a game from the comfort of my own home with something else open on my second monitor.And the rules are fine. I'm not a dramafag so I don't really know much about the controversies, I just log on and have a blast.I play Digimon at my LGS and they have an entire section specifically for 40k. I figured I'd join in on a game night or two after putting together a small list.I main Tau btw
>>96505878>"maining" thingsYou should use the "main" exit out of here, tertiary. You are not welcome.
>>96505878You smell of ESL.
>>96505878I know you're full of shit because there's no such thing as a Digimon player, much less DIgimon locals.
I feel like if James doesn’t reveal them at Warhammer day I’m gonna buy some “old” Assault Terminators.
>>96505908Honestly, if you don't hate the look and you're not playing in tournaments, that's probably fine.
>>96505878Ignore the retards, that said if you want to get into the tabletop and have been playing on tts I'm sure you're aware of the fact that balance changes happen fairly often. You should also be aware that it costs a decent chunk of change, and a good bit of time, so I'd say it's not in your best interest to be painting models you don't really love.>>96505893Nta but my lgs has like 10-15 people in to play weekly
>>96504110Not what I've expected (probably due to Yvarine's model originally meant to be Malys), but not bad, not bad at all.Also, sword is a too big.
>>96505885So >>96505756 and >>96505759 were wrong and the subscription's a good deal?I might just get the first two editions and then cancel. $7 for a Captain, Hive Tyrant, three Von Ryans, and some clippers doesn't sound bad, although I do already own some godhands for my gunpla.>>96505893Three of the five LGSs near me run Digimon, it surprised me too. Turnout is only a dozen or so people, though. You'd be right if I said Elestrals or Edison. Wish someone where near me actually ran them.
>>96503892>its Tyranids who have all their stories written from the other sides PoVTbf, writing a hive mind POV sounds insane
>>96505919Eat shit.
>>96505908Should have gotten the blood angels ones
>>96505919I think anon was crass with your use of a videogame term for a concept that doesn't really exist in the tabletop hobby."Maining" a faction/character implies that switching between them is easy and common. In the tabletop hobby, an army is a significant commitment of time, money and effort. You don't "main" an army, you have one.
>>96505908Assault termies seem to be trivial to convert using the normal ones as a base. The only problem may be changing the power fist arm into a shield arm.
>>96505919Just a heads up, God hand edges are tempered for use with more brittle Bandai plastic, gw plastic and non bandai plastic has been know to dull them
>>96505950>hammer and shield assaults termiesretard
>>96505940A combat patrol box is, what, $120? Sure, having multiple 2000-point armies is probably unrealistic, but surely it's not rare to pick up a combat patrol box for a new faction every now and then is it?Some older editions also allowed army mixing, like Riptide spam in every other list half a decade ago.>>96505952I did not know that, thank you for the heads up.
>>96505955>choosing anything but the objectively coolest loadoutTastelet.
>>96505963It starts slow and then before you realize it you have 5 armies!
>>96505974Im sitting at 12 or so.
>>96505729As someone subbed to the magazine right now, it's a mixed bag. It really all depends on what you want from it, and I just kinda lucked out on most of the armies being offered either being ones I'm kinda interested in or already have>Space MarinesAlways good to have some Terminators around, working on combining it with the newer Salamanders stuff to make a full Salamanders list. >TyranidsOne of the few armies I wasn't interested in, but since they're pushfit I was able to offload them onto a friend who kinda wants to get into 40k but is anemic to the idea of using plastic cement>EldarThis is what the US is currently receiving at the moment. I had zero interested in Eldar stuff at first but after putting together the Farseer and Wraithlord I'm fucking sold. Hell I even went and bought a second copy of the issue with the Wraithlord off ebay for $30 just so I could build another.>CSMI'm toying around with making Iron Warriors since you get Havoks, a Helbrute, and some Terminators. Plus I could snag the Maulerfiend from the World Eaters.>OrksOrks is Orks. Simple as>VotannThat same friend who's anemic to plastic cement liked the aesthetic of the Votann (Mostly the Herkyn Pioneers since he has a motorcycle) so I'll probably put these together and then see if he wants to paint em. >GSCOne of the other armies I wasn't too interested in, but since it's the old-ass GSC Combat Patrol I know the value's still there if I ever want to start playing them outside of Combat Patrol.>GuardIG's one of my main armies so more stuff wouldn't hurt (I could also use some basic bitch Cadians since I've only been really collecting Krieg for the most part).>World EatersI already have this Combat Patrol so while 20 more Berserkers is always welcome, I have no clue what I'll do with the extra Jakhals. tl;dr It's ok if you want most of the armies but if you're new just grab the Combat Patrol of your favorite faction instead of buying into 9 armies you might not want.
>>96505963Or you could pick up that new unit for your army, or something to use for conversions, or that character you needed for that fluffy formation.
>>96505972lightning claws are infinitely cooler fag
>>96505963>I did not know that, thank you for the heads upIt's a mistake you only make only ill tell you what. If you live in Japan you can bring a pair of God hands to a God hand approved retailer and they'll send them back to the factory for you and sharpen them for you, but I haven't heard of anyone who isn't a Japanese native trying it.
>>96505989I've noticed this sentiment from plamofags a couple times, is there something about working with glue specifically with Plamo plastic that makes them so worried?
>>96505993Sorry can't hear your inane bleating over the sound of how awesome thss termies are.
>>96505963Like $145+ USD after discounts actually.
>>96505628Probably Bae
>>96506011The majority of plamofags build the models straight up of the box, don't remove sprue gates or mouldlines and just mash stuff together
>>96506011It's just them being snapshitters. Plamo that isn't gunpla is built with glue, these people don't even paint their gunpla and just low-effort snap the kits together and call it done.
>>96505683>posts marines punching bag
>>96506046>>96506047As someone who used to do plamo myself, I can't fathom this. I used to religiously sand every piece down until the nubs were off, then meticulously color match every piece at the hobby store with a printed out picture.
>>96504847They don't even act notmally though. Most act like childish retards squabbling and having tantrums. For godlike superhumans, they are all pretty subhuman.
>>96506048
>>96506087I think a lot of normies with no patience and no willingness to looks stuff up buy them from hot topic, or their local comic store and then just build them. You'll meet a lot of people who have built a gundam, but way way less people who have painted a gundam
The executioner "shotgun"
>>96506178Executioner rounds are self-guided micromissiles anon, not buckshot. It has been established in the fluff for ages, even Shia Calpurnia novels has them.
>>96506178>shooting giant shotgun slugs cross map with a scoped shotgunS0VLBattlefield bad company 2 my beloved
can you make a SoB army without using any arco flagellants? or will that put too many holes in my army?
>>96506011>>96506046It's not plamo its gunpla get it right. Don't associate us boomer plamo (ie 1/35 scale military models) with Gundam babies. The average sub-assembly on a proper plastic model would bring the average 40k kiddy or Gundam zoomie to fucking tears. They'd both be filtered the second they had to snip and clean their first scale accurate thickness grab handle, let alone glue it on.While I'm on this rant I just want to say if you paint over your plastic canopy congrats, you are less skilled and less dexterous than a 60 year old retiree doing masks for his 1/72 planes. Kys.
>3 damage on literally every datasheetwhy are they like thisI'm seriously considering running bike jail because they have 4 wounds and won't die like all my elite infantry does
There will be a new infantry set with 11th Edition, I saw. They look like a new tactical squad, but Primaris.10 man squad with Bolters, they have access to special weapons. I saw two painted squads, one as BA and one as UM but in Veteran colors (white helmets ect.MK6 & Mk7 helmets, alike MK10 Equipment.
>>96506230>I saw...in your dream?
>>96506231After he sleeped with your mom

what army should a mahjong playing patrician choose
>>96506256imperial agents
>>96506208yes, no
>>96506215I'm just glad we don't deal with etched brass much. I have no interest in slicing my hands up>if you paint over your plastic canopy congrats, you are less skilled and less dexterous than a 60 year old retiree doing masks for his 1/72 planes.Obviously it's a matter of taste and what you want to paint. I like clear canopies cause you get to paint a cool little fella innaplane
>>96506283Is this the Canadian yeah no
>>96506291it's two answers to two questions
>>96506291
>prime black>concentrate raised areas with white ink>hit white areas with blood angels contrast from an airbrush>tfw looks like shiti only have myself to blame for this
>>96506330you need to varnish white ink if you're gonna spray a WET paint like contrast over it
>>96506333thought varnish was only necessary for oil based paints
>>96506347ink can reactivate if you put a watery paint over top of it, it's very fragile
>>96506330post a pic so we can try to diagnose
>>96506349So I put ink and then varnish it if I want to put paint over it?
>>96506330May I see it?
>>96506379What is so funny or cringe about it that it gets reposted? I don't get it
>>96506349sounds like too much effort, im just gonna prime white and call it a day in the future>>96506362>>96506378ive already moved on lads, planning on fucking up something else now
>>96506230Probably>>96506231I had a "weird dream" last nightBasically the first Warhammer 40k show by Amazon>Was called Space Cadets>it's about the adventures of young space marines, and such>women were included>but they were actually Sisters of Battle, or such>it's about young recruits of different chapters and such>they all train together>one recruit was sad, since he is the last surviving member of his family, and such, mainly cause he can't continue his bloodline to due being sterile/castrated as a marine>the Sisters can still get pregnant>makes no fucking sense overall>Imperial Knight was as tall than a Space MarineThat's what I can rememberBut considering we are talking about Amazon and such
>>96506385Me neitherMaybe, that the Berlin wall was made by commies (to "protect" their people from evil capitalism)
>>96506385Just seems like an absurd thing to do honestly.Imagine your tactical rock being part of the North Tower
>>96506390You can't hope to improve if you just give up and move onto something else when something doesn't go right the first time
>>96506330If you have an airbrush, why not just do zenithals like a normal person?
>>96506208>not wanting to use the undisputed best models from the sob reboot
>>96506433you should be zenithal'ing with white ink if you're using an airbrush anyways, it's infinitely smoother straight from the pot
>>96506390You shouldn't move on so fast. Pic related was my first ever painted model and I think I fucked up every single color on him when I started painting. Then I desperately tried to fix it and he came out okay. Don't give up. It's always worth trying to save your model.
>>96506422Its a huge fuckaround for me to take photos as my camera is hilariously bad & the monitor light i got is fuckin useless so I dont really bother unless its a finished model
>>96506438That comes across as a humble brag desu, your first model is top tier in comparison to others
>>96505030I dread the day Nids will get Kerrigan
>>96505043>there is no necron Chaos god.They did help create Vashtorr by accident

>>96506330You have to varnish white ink as others have said. If you're looking for something that doesn't reactivate, white AK primer with their thinner is quite nice
