>>96587824GENESTEALER CULTS BROS OUR TIME IS NOW
>62,50$ for pic related>next month 65$>for this small lonely thin sprueSometimes I wonder "What the fuck?"
>>96587838can't wait for 600pt of marines vs 150 points of gsc that still manage to outnumber the marines
>>96587838I'm sorry brogenestealers aren't a faction
>>96587841welcome to warhammer
>>96587847Are Imperial Agents a faction?How likely is it that Breachers/Voidmen/Rogue Traders will even exist in the next edition?
>>96587781>TQOld Ones, and if GW ever adds them they should be like dragons in DnD.
listening to High Kahl's Oath and the opening kinda rocks with the plunder of bioship going wrong, only then on deposit to get hit with realisation that technically they're just like nids, processing all the biomass
>>96587841>and it's push-shit
>>96587838I am happy with out current rangeMaybe a few units that stray from the mining theme, finally give us that limousine to carry a fat patriarch who gives it tank stats with his psychic might.
>>96587794Orks don’t need one but we will take it anyway. Outta my way gitz!
>>96587863NoStill likely for now
>>96587826
>>96587781>tqThese dudes so I don't start kitbashing one out of a mega gargant yo run as a knight and eventually anime titty statues
>>96587815look at all these drakes from dungeons and dragons.
>>96587824>Dark Eldar are not starter material
>>96587933You forgot one
>>96587941Not a dragon.
Evening /40kg/, doing my semi-annual checkupAre there any indications of exodites coming to 40k in the foreseeable future?Appreciate it
>>96587826Cockpit postan
>>96587939times changed, what could be starter material then is not necessarily starter material now.
>>96587943nyo
>>96587942it's explicitly called a dragonthis one is a dragon too
>>96587933You forgot the best dragon they ever sculpted
>>96587954so is this one
>>96587954>explicitly called a dragonGW also explicitly called it not a dragon when they revealed its replacement.
>>96587956>>96587960
>>96587916there's no way these are xenos. They look like Iron Warriors daemons
>>96587781Is time for the Great Revolushuun!Gitz are more charismatic than Orks anyway, give them their time to shine!!
>>96587970I don't care what they are, they're sick
1-3 I work on my Salamanders.4-6 I work on my Ulthwe Eldar.7-9 I work on my homebrew CSM.0 I work on my 30k IW instead.
>>96587956>>96587960I blame Peter Jackson for this. Tolkien explicitly drew Smaug as a dragon.
>>96587964No, they didn't, they said the profile could also be used to represent a number of other similar draconic beasts, but also that it is a zombie dragon and it has been a zombie dragon since 2008
>>96587975Neat, post pics of your elfs before you go
>>96587981both depictions are that of a dragon, and so is this
>>96587948Bummer
>>96587981That smaug model is rad whether it looks like the original art or not, you can at least give it that surely. It's also fuckxboxhueg
>>96587824>harlequins aren't a faction...but they should be.
>>96587943No but the new lizardmen mounts are so good that you could make and insanely cool exodites army easily and just run the dinos as jetbikes
Do Sisters of Silence Prosecutor Cadre (the dual pistols) have rules in 40k?
>>96587987It'll be just assembly today, but I'll take a picture of what I build for sure.It's a project I've been putting off for a while for reasons unknown to me.
>>96588001not really. As much as agents do.
>>96588009They might have a legends datasheet. I'd imagine they're with the custodes stuff
>>96587971Goblins got done so dirty in 40K. Fantasy had them getting shit done, going in massive swarms and catapulting themselves by their own volition, and some of them would serve as advisors and nearing equals to the orc warboss. In 40K there isn’t a single grot willing to voluntarily stab a git that isn’t already half dead, and even the “highest” grot is still below the weakest, and dumbest boy.
>>96588001Nah, they work well with the small roster they have and as add-ons to the 2 eldar armies, bloating it with a bunch of redundant options would be lame.
>>96588009no, not even legends, you run them as regular prosecutors.
>>96588013>Litteraly a mish-mash of random nonsense is being compared to a race with a unique culture and army tactics.
>>96588001In Kill Team maybe. As a full 40k army they're no more appropriate than the Inquisition or Kroot.
>>96588017I'm sure gw will do an all gretchen kill team at some point and repackage them as a 40k unit ala mandrake and vespids and literally everything else. They'd be perfect cause you can give them all sorts of kooky guns in kt but trim it back for 40k
>>96588037The inquisition has three armies.>KrootI don't see how they aren't worse than Votann
>>96587942the wyvern is literally just a kind of dragon that was arbitrarily split off from the others so rules writers could pad monster manuals with more statlines
>>96587794>>96587824>>96587831All wrong, necrons need more stuff
So Deldar and Space Marines this week?
As a community we need to mock bad terrain and esports obj markers more. Standards are so low.
>>96587781>TQI want a xenos bounty hunter kill team of all sorts of the weird barely mentioned xenos species.
>>96587824>emperor children aren't starter materialif they want to give chaos fanboys confidence that this faction has any future, they should put them as the starter update so we can actually expect that they'll get the same love as deathguard, and not a half ass army that goes one character every edition like with 1ksons and world eatersbut i get how they're also not the most "marketable" factionworld eaters would be good, perfectly "marketable" faction with a lot of fans already1ksons could be good, able to synergize with SM2 like the nids did. that game is still pretty relevant. but i don't see it happening with how little attention they get as is
>>96588028Ah dangit. Thanks anon.I wanted to double dip between 40k and HH but of course that wouldn't be possible.Will we ever get a new kit?
This is what the void dragon is based on. Aren’t you tired of having the same conversation again?
>>96588086Post your regular gaming table and the terrain you play on.
>>96588101they will get more than one character next time, but it won't be a starter treatment
Did that anon who spilled glue on the carpet manage to get the carpet tile swapped out?
a starter box needs two thingsmarines, and a horde armythey want horde armies so your horde army player will always be happy to take the units from every friend that is trying to get into 40k for the marines
Good morning peeps, I changed all the air filters in the house and cleaned for the week and now I am ready to talk and paint Warhammer! AWOOOOO! Also lets go Chiefs!!!!
>>96587781>What kind of xenos do you wish GW would add into 40k?Actual GreysTau are blue and without psychic powers so they don't countMeme easter egg Gretchin model doesn't count either
>>96588107>Do you see, 40kg?>Yes
>>96588118Welcome back bro!
>>96588086As a community we need to mock killa kans without baggy pants and cool sneakers more. Standards are so low.
>>96588105>Will we ever get a new kit?In HH
>>96588107No wonder the model looks like shit then.
>>96588111So you samefagged something from the last thread because the dragon talk is over now.
>>96588101>if they want to give chaos fanboys confidence that this faction has any futureit doesn't lmaoeven less popular than WE/TS and their even more anemic range proves ityou'll get one pity character in 3 years with 11th
>>96588119You already know in your earth that a grots expansion could perfectly capture the appeal of greys.
>>96588118wow this spread is such a good counter-argument to people saying 3d printed bits look good
>>96588107>Aren’t you tired of having the same conversation again?This entire general just talks about the same stuff. Today it was dragons, tomorrow it will probably go back to arguing over certain model posters in this general.
>>96587824Traitor Guard!!!!
>>96588128You’ve been trying this joke for months and it’s never funny.

>>96588118Awoo with me brother!
>>96588155exactly!we can have goblinoid greyskins being openly spurned by normal greenskins and in turn hating normal greenskinned orks, interacting mainly with the grot revolutionaries or via deals with weird warbosses
>>96588133No I was asking cause I thought it was funny and was thinking last night before bed that if he was having a hard time getting the tiles off that maybe laying a towel down and putting an iron over it could help them let go.
>>96588161At least there was one decent release
>>96587943no, although Valrak says it's happening at some point in the future, starting with a Kill Team
>>96588150It starts getting funnier when you notice he only replies to people posting daydreaming bullshit
>https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/wdmije41/sunday-preview-the-drukhari-sharpen-their-blades-in-anticipation/>There’s also a fairly weighty reveal on Monday, which is currently prepping for a speedy arrival in the hallowed halls of a battle barge high in orbit…Either the rumoured multipart Outriders or new Speeders.
>>96588161>wracks are finally a ten packIf I wouldn’t just print them I’d care
>>96587975elfs stay winning
>>96588189its cool till you remember that you're not even getting 300 points in this box
>>96588205Really like the proportions on this guy
>>96588189oh damn they dropped that quick. Guess they had to get it out of the way before they release the box people actually want
>>96587841In real monry or dollaridoos?
>>96588144>arguing over certain model posters in this generalI wish they were at least talking about the good modelposters and not the obnoxious attentionwhores
So are 40k releases done for the year now? Is there anything left?
>>96588209Nigga that's a good thang
>>96588225lol
>>96588225if you mean announcements there is the christmass sludge of battleforces but that will be announced on tourney in october or november, alongside maybe the news of end-of-edition campaign
>>96588225reveal on Monday for something 40k related> There’s also a fairly weighty reveal on Monday, which is currently prepping for a speedy arrival in the hallowed halls of a battle barge high in orbit…
>>96588225Lmao even
>>96588225the new ultramarines stuff is still coming. I don't remember if the new whitescars box is out yet but if not that as well. clowns probably next week. christmas boxes announced soonTM
>>96588213I like him better than the GW one
>>96588242This is by far the best contrast painted model in this thread, good job anon.
>>96588209oh shit it's 295 points. And it was announced alongside the Harlequin box, which is a minimum 515.If they want to make Combat Patrol a popular game mode like Spearhead is, they need to figure this shit out.
>>96588248AoS spearheads are all over the place in terms of points too anon. GW just balanced the game better.
>>96588248>If they want to make Combat Patrol a popular game modenot even slightly
>>96588248spearhead has a lot of focus behind it because they actually need to use it to get people into the gamecombat patrols are used to get rid of excessive stock for lesser factions, or be made into things that can be bought multiple times
>>96588260Yeh but Spears are still twice the amount of points as 40k boxes, so it feals less like a scam, even if it it the lamer one
>>96588246this was not funny when you first posted it and it's not funny now, retard
>>96587781>TQHere's my pitch: Alien Bird people that are honor-bound hunters (Think Predators) who's faction gimmick is fast deep strikers. Think stuff like Jet pack wings, infiltrators, and actually playable fliers. Give them a faction rule where the army gets a small buff whenever a unit on an objective is taken off the board but drops when you lose one of your units. Lore-wise have them associated with the Votann (Tech trading) and Tau (They want them bad as auxiliaries but the birds are too wise for that shit).
>traitor Salamanders complementing their Melanchromic mutation with kintsugi-style gilding of their scarsKind of a cool idea that I sorta wanna try now.
>>96588300>kroot but contrarian
>>96588260The minimum is a LOT higher. I know AoS has higher points cost generally, but almost every Spearhead gets you a quarter of a full army.With CPs you have a lot that are around the 500 mark, and then a bunch that aren't even scraping 400. That's going to cause balancing problems. Especially with their new apparent paradigm of not having a centerpiece damage dealer, which puts non-powered armor armies at a disadvantage against powered armor armies>>96588269Spearheard has been so popular in AoS I guarantee you item 1 on their goals for 11th was "make Combat Patrol work"
>>96588309Yes
>>96588300
>>96588300...so you just want winged Kroot?
>>96588248"Combat Patrol" is just "start collecting" with some extra steps. It's not meant to be It's own game in all sincerity. The Krieg box is good because of its model content, as it contains everything except the engineers and the marvel hero
>>96588118Now all that's left to do for you is tie a noose from a rafter and go meet the great wolf in the sky!
dark eldar refresh never ever...
>>96588324>"Combat Patrol" is just "start collecting" with some extra steps. It's not meant to be It's own game in all sincerity.It's going to be. Spearhead was too popular, they are going to try to replicate that in the next edition. At this point they should be designing the Combat Patrol sets to work with the new Combat Patrol game rules, and the crazy lopsidedness of the Krieg and the Harlequins make me think they haven't nailed it
>>96588118kind of a stretch to call basecoat + messy wash "painting"
>>96587781i just want something for tau auxiliaries, something like quadrupedial crab/marine alien to hold the line in melee (altho at the same time i'd be fine with just letting in some votann mercs too)outside of that i'd take anything that isn't human+gimmick or bug
painter friends how do i avoid getting my paint on the model like picrel ? should i thin it more or is this a "i need to paint better" issue ?
>>96588297I praised your contrast painting skills. Just take the praise without complaint contrast-anon.
>>96588357carnac you suck
>>96588357Use tape?
This is a pretty nice Combat Patrol. Drukhari bros are eating good.
>>96588357use masking tape/silly putty on contact points you don't want primer/paint going on
>>96588161Wracks finally being sold in boxes of 10 is frankly an insult at this point. What, are they going to charge double the price now, too? They didn't even have the decency to give us a damn upgrade sprue for them. And grotesques are gone!
>>96588358kill yourself immediately>>96588364that's not a combat patrol lmao
>>96588364That's a battleforce.
>>96588315>>96588260There's a neat video of the former GW employee that designed Spearhead talking about his ideas behind the game. https://youtu.be/Ywc6oXKpJe0?si=ikcLzJ5LpJqeAk5l
>>96588364thats the battleforce box, this is their combat patrol i'm not sure if its a good one but its defiantly worse than their last one but not many things could've been better than that
>>96588357I dont quite understand what the problem isDo you mean not getting it on other bits of the model? Use masking tape or just keep practicing and you will have better controlIf you mean the patchyness the metal has, that's just from thinning it and is normal, do a second thin coat and it will look solid.
>>96588360carnac ? idk what that means.....>>96588361how would tape help me for the circular shaped pieces ? im trying to get a nice even coat over the whole piece but it like bunches and and looks splotchy >>96588365>puttythats so obvious and genius im surprised i didn't think of it ! thanks anon !!
>>96588300that's just kroots
>no ork revealsWorst Orktober ever
>>96588378>if you mean the patchyness the metal has, that's just from thinning it and is normal, do a second thin coat and it will look solid.i did thanks ! im new to thinning my paints and was worried i used too much ty !
>>96588381>carnac ? idk what that means.....it means that anon is a schizo and thinks you're someone else, ignore him
>>96588388Oh, i'm glad that's what it was!Some paints take two or three coats, some can be more. It really depends on the paintBuilding up thin coats like that instead of a thick one really helps keep detail sharp
Is Artel W good?
>>96587781>TQSomeone with this energy
>>96588260>uhhh yeah just have your centrepiece come on the board at like turn 3Half of the balance issues get fixed by this one simple trick.
>>96588377I mean obviously it is a worse discount than the last one, but this is the first ever Covens discount box which is nice as someone who already has loads of Kabs/Wyches
>>96588370Why are you so mad? You are a good contrast painter? What gives? Why so hostile?
>>96587826The cloning of the head could have gone better, might redo it later. Still pretty happy with him.
>>96588453The original kitbash
>>96588408I like some of their stuff and dislike some (eldar stuff feels too protossy for me)
Been watching some gameplay recently and Tau are looking fun...
>>96588408it depends on what you're after
I've been out of the hobby since around 6th edition, got rid of my collection a long time ago. Lately I've been feeling the itch and wanted to get back in, nothing crazy, just some marines to paint, maybe a little hobby-modeling, do some "my dudes" fan-fictioning - the good stuff. I went on the online store to look at buying some kits but I'm seeing, all kinds of different Marines I don't know what I should be getting anymore. I know a lot of this is run-off from the Primaris hooplah but I have no frame of reference for what are normal units and what aren't and I've been seeing some stuff while doing a little research that the next edition is coming soonish and Primaris is getting phased out?/tg/ what the hell am I supposed to buy? Are these Primaris kits being squatted? Are tactical squads dinosaur units? What the fuck is going on?
>>96588496Primaris is the trademarkable name for the modern sculpts of marines. The units aren't going away.
>>96588496The general gist of the current rumor mill is>Last remains of firstborn marines are getting Primaris-version kits (Assault Terminators and Tactical Squads)>Since everything is "Primaris" they can just drop the word from all the boxes and just say "Space Marine Intercessors" instead of "Space Marine Primaris Intercessors" or what have you. They just want to clean up the wording on the boxes and whatnot. You'll be fine picking up any of the Combat Patrol boxes, I strongly doubt anything from those will be going to Legends any time soon (Except maybe those shitty turrets in the Iron Hands box no one ever uses).
>>96588496>Lately I've been feeling the itch and wanted to get back inRecommendation: don't>what the hell am I supposed to buy?Nothing.
>>96588496>/tg/ what the hell am I supposed to buy?the box of 10 marines that looks coolest to you
>>96588496>the next edition is coming soonish and Primaris is getting phased out?Next edition might make primaris tacticals or some shit like that but primaris are here to stay and the shorter marines are on the wat out.Normal units aren't really a thing anymore either, in practical terms you can make an army of only dreadnoughts, or spamming whatever type of unit you want with no real limitations of a force organisation chart.Closest thing to the basic units are units whose datasheet include the "battleline" keyword, making them good at holding objectives, in a primaris marine army that's the 3 types of intercessors.Considering the cost of entry nowadays, I'd either grab a kill team so you have a painting project with enough bits to make the various dudes different, or a bundle box, like a combat patrol or one of the battleforces they release around christmas, or one half of the starter set.
>>96588496>thinly veiled primaris vs firstborn shitpostI commend you for typing all this shit just for a bait but you should kill yourself anyway
So essentially the real advantage of the Tau is that they embody the idea that 'logistics win wars'?
>>96588528>>96588529>>96588542Thanks this all really helps me find footing, it sounds like >>96588540 is the best path forward for what I want to do so I'll do that. It's interesting that the force-org is out. Looks like I really will have to read the codices and can't rely on past experience to intuit thing.Thank you for giving me a birds eye view of the situation.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96588205
>>96588576kek good one
>>96588559Not really, they have bureaucratic issues as well. Everything a Tau can do is determined by their caste. Water caste Tau can't even commit violence in self defense due to how strongly ingrained the Ethereal brainwashing is. Fire warriors can't perform anything other than the most minor maintenance on their equipment, and so on. It's not nearly as bad as the worst excesses of imperial bureaucracy but they're not always the most practical.
>>96588561>It's interesting that the force-org is out."Interesting" is one way of phrasing it.
>>96587826rebosting
>>96588357So that actually looks like a tiny bit too much water. Metallics are kinda fussy about thinning but it looks like that would be perfect with one more coat. If you can still see the dark undercoat after doing a coat just let that one dry and hit it again
>>96588584Eh, humans and other auxiliaries can fill in the gaps. Plus the Tau actually automate their industry and infrastructure so every Earth caste might be commanding a dozen or more drones each of which is doing the equivalent of what an Imperium menial laborer could accomplish on their own. And while the caste system is a bit rigid, they are better at their jobs at least, helped along by not having a technophobia.
I'm sorry, but I'm gonna say it. Grots need a new kit.Yea, they are basically glorified objective holders, but fuck me has their old kit aged. Some of their faces look like the old Clan rat faces.
>>96588443Some boxes have a Rhino or other transport as a centerpiece, they'd be useless.
>>96588582>>96588576We need a collage of all the memes people have made of other people's models
>>96588602It'll be a kill team and will probably be pretty good looking but hard to spam due to monopose sculpts. Although who knows, there have been some decent kill team kits released with plenty of bits options
>>96588572What's the minimum number of kits necessary for it to count as a refresh?Is it a refresh if the basic units (kabalites, wytches, wracks) aren't touched?Is it a refresh of it's only kits for brand new units and not updates to old units?
>>96588353I've been hoping for a while they release an Earth caste tech priest/tech marine-like character who can repair battlesuits and vehicles, that'd be cool also.
>>96588584That doesn't sound right, the air caste and earth caste kill people all the time
>>96588602it's grots, what faces do you want them to have and what faces do you think grots from new kits have?
>>96588648Not whatever the fuck this shit is
>>96588649How ugly are you? be honest
>>96588649Rip. Have you tried being tall and rich? I heard that works.
>>96588642isnt self repair tism what contributed to farsight seceeding? they'd either have to push back a lil or have new expansion sphere squeezed where it was sanctioned
>>96588657That's a normal smile in ol' albion.
>>96588649Sometimes you think you're getting along great when the reality is the other person is just being polite, simple as. I will not speculate further.
>>96587781Actual insect aliens. Tyranids aren't insect enough for me. I want mandibles and thoraxs!
>>96588649Ouch, now paint those guard.
>>96588602i want grot tanks again. but yeah the grot box is alright, but some more variety would be nice. got a friend to print me the mezgike imperial guard themed grot, pretty funny models, that puts me at a total of 4 grots units (though i need to find an additional runtherd

I was looking at the realspace raiders BF thinking>I already have all the kabalite/incubi stuff, new archon is nice but I already got one, don't care about wyches/can get them cheap on ebay anywayBut the new combat patrol compliments everything I don't have like wracks and talos.
>>96588101>>96587824Iron Hands vs. Emperor's Children.EC get an upgrade for Rhinos and Eidolon returns (and fuck you GW give me a fucking Fabius Bile creations detachment for EC), Iron Hands get battle servitors and a generic Iron Father so you don't have to use the Clan Raukaan one.
>>96588708
>>96588708That's a good paint job on that Felis Catus class bio titan.
>>96588708cute pussy and great models
>>96588744>iron hands vs emperor's childrencongratulations, you invented the worst selling box in history
>>96588008I don't want to buy new models but I was going to buy old ones and put shining spears on them.
>>96588744starter sets have to be ETB anon. how do you make an ETB rhino?
>>96588733Idk why but this picture makes me feel uncomfortable
>>96588733why does Legions Imperialis even exist?
>>96588708>cat hair on models
>>96588008man, Aggradons are so damn cool and super fun to paint
>>96588744has any starter box ever been anything but ultramarines vs a horde army?
>>96588733
>>96588353>something like quadrupedial crab>anything that isn't human+gimmick or bugCrabs are bugs.
>>965887926e (7e?) was dark angels vs crimson slaughter
>>96588744Imagine having such shit taste you would unironically design a box of marines vs marines that would actually fail to sell.
>>96588708Nice cat. What is its name?

Am I allowed to use 30k marines in 40k if I want to play an Iron Warriors-flavored CSM army?
>>96588832no seriouslywho is the game supposed to be for? people who just really want to make battles that include titans?
>>96588840No
>A wizard did it.
>>96588840I will always respond to this specific bait on principle. Spike that shit up or stay in Oops All Marines
>>96588779because the mainline gw studio and the specialist gw studio are in a competition and the higher ups arbitrated that the specialist studio cannot compete by using the 40k proper setting to make something like battlefleet gothic or, more dangerously, 40k epic, which would promise customers a cheaper 40k wargame alternative to 28mm 40k while having the factions and units they like plus some they would otherwise not get like titans
>>96588835consider posting pictures that showcase the models and not your ugly nails and brownoid hands
>>96588839All of her posts are screenshotsI think she might be slightly retarded which makes me think it really is a woman>>96588835>two (known) women in the thread>both have lamentersThat's very silly

>>96588861lamentranny is not a confirmed woman you faglet, that tits picture was a mannequin. The only reason you retards latch onto this idea is because of the reddit avatar or whatever thats called in that shithole

Im bummed out bros. I build all these cool models yet I can never get a game of anything going.
>>96588887still waiting on your models btw
>>96588858thats cool and all but it still crossover with Horus Heresy which is an odd game to exist in itself
>>96588883this is not how real skin looks you fucking permavirgin>>96588886>u mad!!just kill yourself already
>>96588893>Do not redeem the models saar!
where do you guys get your bits for chaos junk
>>96588905post chromosomes
>>96587909I like the direction you're going with the bolder highlights but you really need to smooth them out a bit.
>>96588912From all the chaos kits I've bought over the years
>>96588905You've never seen an Asian woman's selfies if you think that's what that skin actually looks like
>>96588905>this is not how real skin looksAre you fucking jokingI cannot tell if you are trolling or legitimately retarded
>>96588912chaos kitbashing i mean
>>96588709The correct answer is skaven. Not to give GW any ideas but they would print money if we got skaven in 40k.
>>96588912Printer
>>96588907yes we all know you're a nomodels already no need to continue to melt down
>>96588912I bought some of the maggot boy kits for my DG
>>96588905The cleavage V above the model looks like it was photoshopped in.Or do women use make up on their tits nowadays too? Actually dumb question, they 100% do probably.
>>96588929I really hope Aos gets a tzeentch kit with bits as good as this. I’m trying to make do with leftover kairic and tzaangor bits but it’s not enough for my custom tzeentch army.
>>96588912etsy if your after something like alpha legion, archiesforge has good bits for iron warriors and night lords.
>>96588905yeah, that’s really bad. I’m not sure if I should feel more sorry the dude who went through the effort of posting a mannequin next to his model in order to pretend to be a girl, or the anons who think women don’t have pores or body hair.
>>96588899that's because horus heresy is also done by the "specialist studio"yeah, the name is a misnomer, but we don't have a better one, even "ex-FW" doesn't quite work because they are managing TOW too, which have lots of kits previously made by the mainline studio, not by forge worldthe division is like this>main GW: 40k, AoS, kill team, warcry, underworlds, warhammer quest>specialist: HH, TOW, necromunda, blood bowl, legion imperialis, middle earth
>>96588922Here's your skaven for today.
>>96588905where arms
>>96588954I bet these were a mannequin too baka
>>96588954What am I looking at?
>>96588954Uhmmm wheres her chest hair and blackheads this can't be real
>>96588961jokaero
>>96588922We already have Skaven in 40k.
Can you stop posting tits and have the decent to post your minis between your heralded fucking sweaty balls you whores.
>no you silly boys I am a girl irl tee hee heeIt's like I'm back in 2003
>>96588839if i dont crop it 4chan auto rotates the pic.....idk why>>96588859im in a car anon its the best i can do and keep it focused, here a pic of the back with my finger holding it cropped out sorry im not trying to make anyone upset. im just really excited and like to share when i get stuff not baiting or anything >>96588861im playing ultramarines ! i picked this one up used and im going to repaint it blue when I get home !
>>96588919>>96588920>this desperate to gaslight the threadunironically pathetic
>>96588905I'm more curious as to why would they have a mannequin in the first place?It's a really random object to own unless you're a tailor or something.
>>96588960nah, you can see actual veins and pores in that one. unlike >>96588905 which is just a blank mass.
>>96588988nobody cares about your tantrums

>>96588733Man DAOT tech was crazy, the machines even gave birth
>>96589001You're really not disproving the mad allegations
>>96588984I'm genuinely happy to see you posting here and hope you continue! It's nice to see new people in the thread and especially ones actually posting models and painting I also ended up here from /cgl/. I was voted the 2nd ugliest on the board at one point.
>>96588951those are humans
>>96588960When I was a teenager, I was all about giant milkers.Now that I'm in my 30s, these are my preferred size.Anyway, I'm back with my CSM if anyone remembers my Warp Talons. I'm working on some HQs now.
>>96589002Holy shit that is animated bad
>>96588858>more dangerously, 40k epic, which would promise customers a cheaper 40k wargame alternative to 28mm 40k while having the factions and units they like plus some they would otherwise not get like titans>people who don't want to pay the price of a new xbox for an army shouldn't be able to buy anything at all because our marketing/executives are so deranged they think it's better to not have discount products and we're proud of not doing any research
Are you all ready to get blown the fuck out by me posting...... MY BLACK LEGION MODEL???
>>96588951>>96588922When you think about it there's nothing stopping anyone from running Chaos Ratlings with rat heads.
>>96588935tzeentch is supposed to suck.
So I decided to go down the Chapter specific subreddits rabbit hole I know, I know and I start to think Raptors may be actually the weirdest one. The community there has a lot of vets and active soldiers and personnel which is understandable considering the chapter's theme, color scheme etc. What I wasn't expecting is how autistic they are about the paint scheme, armor markings etc. Half of the posts had people commenting on if the paintjob is passing the "chapter culture check". Not even IW players are this autistic.
>>96589052yes, aslong as you are using the correct gold
Assault Terminators will be revealed on Monday.
>>96589069this is why if your going to paint a successor chapter its better to go with an obscure one so you cant have autistic retards complaining that you painted a kneepad wrong or something.
>>96589071Fuck you, post your models right now if you dont want me to blow you the fuck out with my superior models dont make fun of me!!!1
>>96589052>>96589094That BLfag really broke your mind
>>96589077That'd be cool.
>>96589098I'll break ur anus in a minute m8
>>96588576This is hilarious I'm honored
>>96589098>that BLfagCarnac is a blight, telling that faggot to fuck off is more of a monthly tradition at this point.
stick terminator librarian to a 5 man assault termie squad with dual LC or a 10 man normal termie squad with chainfists and two rotary cannons or missile pods
>>96589098NTA but it's pretty funny watching people trying to post some old shit or something they have not posted here before to avoid getting identified
>>96589113wrong BL lmaoalso careful saying his name, the jannies ban for that since the resident shitposter took to calling everybody he doesn't like
>>96589114terminators are bad so the smaller unit
>>96589117>it's pretty funny watching people trying to post some old shitYeah im not sure why BLanon does that, surely he can just post his current shit, alongside the retards who get trolled by him and never can do so
>>96589117It's even funnier watching tourists crash out when they can't post models in response
>>96589047It makes sense to keep the poor away Anon. Think about how other luxury brands do it. Are you also complaining that Ferrari is not selling a cheap family car too? Guess what, they don't give a shit if you can't afford their stuff.
>>96589124The retards seething about him own no models, it's why they're so furious over his shitty black legion paintjobs
>>96589132Both watching the crashout of anons unable to post models and him not being able to respond to any even mild comment about him is honestly hilarious
>>96588984I don't care about your tits, post a better picture of the dog.
>>96589117It's the smart way to do it if you don't want /v/ermin to latch onto your every post like they do with the lamenterfag
>>96589132>nooooooo, I didn't pooooost pictures>I'm crashing out, auuuughhhhhhGo to reddit or dakkadakka if you want to share.
>>96588935Good news anon, all rumours point to major AoS expansion For Nurgle again.You'll be shiting Plague God's bits even more than now with 3 Blighking adjescent kits
The /v/ermin literally CANNOT seethe about their modelposting superiors
I really like how the commissar turned out.
>>96589134Plastic toy soldiers are not a luxury brand.
>>96589167Paints a little thicc but I like the design of it.Is this for the collage?
>>96589145that only happens if you’re a complete shitter. every model poster that isn’t an insufferable retard is always met with praise (sallyfag is a weird exception).
>>96589167I like it too. I enjoy your models GrAY knight/ Agent anon.
>>96589173GW seeks to change that :)
>>96589177>every model poster that isn’t an insufferable retardnope, O&Tfag gets shit on, SLfag gets shit on when he shows up, drookiefag gets shit on, multiple blorkfags get shat on/v/ermin just hate modelposters
>>96589173Says who? GW makes the prices, so they decide on that matter. Not you.
I wish GW was able to get Knights to a point where people won't hate you. They're so cool.
>>96589177The BLfag literally just posted his models and asked to see the models of a guy trying to shitpost about firstborn/primaris and the shitposter has been seething about him calling him a pajeet for literal weeks
>>96588839It's easier to just take picture, send to self on PC, then copy/paste instead of saving it as a file proper.
>>96589192schizo
>>96589173Just because "plastic soldiers" is connected with "cheap toy" in your head does not make it a reality. They clearly do not see themselves as the maker of cheap toys, so either pay up or look for an alternative.
>>96589191Bring back Hull Points.
>>96589188But my point is specifically that it isn't because GW tried it before and their sales cratered so they released age of sigmar with its bottom barrel prices. They themselves market to kids and are acting confused kids don't have 500 bucks to just shell out for stuff.
96589196see? There he goes again
>>96589184out of those I honestly only remember O&T being picked on but to be fair I do my best to ignore thread drama
>finished current project>feel emptyMan I don't know what to do next.Maybe an army shot or something
>>96589210every single time the SLfag posts a battle report some guy throws a tantrum about parking lot guard for the rest of the thread
>>96589202Actually bring back all the mechanics that have been abandoned
>>96589192You're describing like 3-5 different users. BLfag frequently posts multiple responses to xis own posts (all written in the same style, too autistic to assume a different tone of voice or vocabulary. total fag).
>>96589204They are not marketing to kids. When was the last release of the "Warhammer adventures" book series? And when was the last nostalgia-bait character release, either based upon an old classic artwork or an old classic miniature? Do you even think before posting always the same nonsense takes?They market towards kids of the 90s. But guess what, those are grown up men now. With money to waste on "cheap" plastic toys. Lots of them.
>>96589017awe ty anon ! i really appreciate nice posters like you ! its what keeps me coming back :) its okay, i get shit on from being dark skin spanish and having ugly hands(?) too so I feel u.../cgl/ is really catty>>96589144kk here is my puppy holding the other model i just bought ! apparently this dreadnought model is sold out everywhere....
>>96589222I don't miss trying to calculate a 15-degree firing arc on a sponson gun.But Initiative definitely should come back. As should rules that make Leadership matter, i.e., Fear, Terror, Panic and Break tests.And get rid of Fall Back moves altogether. Fucking stupid fucking idea that a unit can just walk away from combat.
>>96589223schizo
>40kg is being flooded with attention whore tranny bullshit straight out of /cgl/
I can't believe there isn't a single good box set for Tyranids in this entire fucking edition. Every single one of them is trash. This army is so unspeakably expensive to field a proper, non-kaijuspam army for if you want to use units that aren't total shit.
>>96589236Schizo.
>>96589241leviathan?
>>96589083Nah, you just find one inconsistency among GW pictures and by extrapolation any kind of deviation is not only possible but also allowed. That's why my Dark Angels have company numbers on their knee pads.
>>96589241Just get Leviathan halves for a few bucks on eBay?
>>96589184There were also fags trying to shitpost at retro anon and tsons anon. Maybe it was just one retard, I dunno. Both stopped after getting ignored tho
>>96589240We get flooded by /pol/ on the daily, this isnt anything that new
>>96587946Elaborate why. Narratively, Dark Eldar raids have increased in number since the galaxy was ripped in half by the Great Rift. The worlds of Imperium Nihilus are ripe for picking and the Dark Eldar are probably more relevant to the setting than ever before. Game wise, they are in dire need of a refresh. So explain why they aren't starter material, and don't say "they aren't popular enough" because both Necrons and Nids saw an influx of players thanks to being their respective editions' baddies.
>>96589245>>96589254Are you smoking fucking crack? Screamer-Killer, Barbagaunts, and Neurogaunts are utterly unusable. Winged Tyranid Prime and Termagants are mid at best. VRLs are a Lictor downgrade. The Neurotyrant is the only good model in that whole box.
i've started a couple armies that i don't actually play because it's a pain in the ass to carry them around (guard) or they're not fun to play (knights)what are fun armies to play that aren't difficult to transport that aren't custodes
>>96589264NOT admech
>>96589264Death Guard. Stop being a boring Imperial nigger
>>96589235>But Initiative definitely should come backNah not unless it's getting expanded into some alternating actions for the whole game and not just the melee phase.
>>96589258at least /pol/ doesn't put tranny meat flappers in my face
>>96589264Deathguard with stinky terminator spam?
>Vect has an entire game mechanic named after him>No model or rules since like 3rd edswear to god 'Vect Aura' is going to outlast Dark Eldar as a faction
>>96589262Who is stopping you from buying some recasts for whatever minis you like?
>>96589240>XX aren't attention whores
>>96589270>pick marines but fat and with some spikeshe should pick xenos if he doesn't want to be a boring nigger
>>96589286>Tyranids have no good boxes and are expensive to collect a real army for>WHY NOT JUST RECAST?!You are the dumbest blackest midnight gorilla nigger to ever breathe my air. You can say that for EVERY faction.
>>96589270>Stop being a boring imperial nigger>Play Space MarinesYou bastards, get back in your fucking codex.
>>96589241>I can't believe the products for this trash game are trash! How could this be happening?
>>96589259You will get told that they are "too evil". Rape/torture does not market well towards kids and all that bullshit, and maybe GW does think that way (it did not stop them from using Skaven for AoS tho). Eldar in general could need some attention. But GW is boring, so it probably will be Ultramarines Vs Orks on Armageddon.
>>96589293>You can say that for EVERY faction.Yeah? What's stopping you from buying recasts of the models you like.
>>96589301>tho
>>96589259There's no explaining why Dark Eldar don't fit the modern 40k agenda that also can explain Emperor's Children being pushed now with the sole exception of Sl***ry being a dirty word
>>96589293Everything is expensive.. you are onto something Anon. Buy the models that are available and stop crying. A combat patrol box saves you how much? 50? That's not even a troop box. What would it change if they had an awesome box. You save some pennies but still buy expensive models.
>>96589309EC are not the posterboy opponents of the entire edition tho
Assuming the archon is like $42 this box set is like... A 15% discount. That's kind of ridiculous for a grab bag box of random old shit. You're basically paying full price for everything but getting an archon for free.
>>96589301>You will get told that they are "too evil". Rape/torture does not market well towards kids and all that bullshitYou know I keep hearing this but 40k being edgy/metal as shit was exactly what attracted me to it as a kid since it made it look way cooler than the other stuff around. Do Marketers and the people who post this stuff just not realize that kids like cool things and trying to sand out the coolness makes them like it less
>>96589309>Emperor's Children being pushed now???
>>96589259how do i fuck a drukhari dommy mommy and escape with my life?
>>96589321Kids have no money, and stuff needs to be bought by their Christian soccer moms. See how Lego avoids having realistic guns in their police sets or avoids military sets in general, while lego guns and tanks are the bestselling sets everywhere else. So yes, marketing does play a bit role.
>>96589320Same as always, you get one character for free in those boxes. And since characters are completely overpriced, GW wins while the buyer actually thinks made a good deal there.
>>96589335be a good spartacus and work out a breakout deal and succeed
>>96589340those moms care less than you think nowadays since I've seen kids come into shops with their parents to play games and a couple even with their grandmas
>>96589309Even the EC aren't being pushed. Yeah GW made them a new refresh but that was it, they haven't mentioned them since.
>>96589361>isn't even posed like she's lying downwhat a lazy shit Dakimura
Thoughts on the current meta?
>>96589370Yeah the art was never made for a dakiIt was a gag gift
>>96589335Be a Rogue TraderFind a common enemyMake a deal with an ArchonHave sex simple as
EC book doesn't have any of the "rape and torture everyone" vibe that Slaanesh armies used to have two or three decades ago.Source: i got the EC release box with the cool shiny book and actually read it.I get around this by naming my army the rapelords of the spaffchalice.
>>96588840I am planning my own IW army list as my 2026 project and here's my current gameplan.>Legionaries are a mix of the CSM kit and Mk III Marines, with different stages of chaos taint here and there>Havocs are more or less the same>Terminators use the Cataphractii kit as a base if that rumor about a new version of that kit is true, otherwise stick with the regular Chaos Terminators>Abbadon is a kitbash from the Saturnine Praetor but less aquilas and more spikes.>One squad of Obliterators run as the stock kit, one squad is a kitbash using necromunda Ambots as a base>Helbrutes, Forgefiends, and other Vehicles/Daemon Engines use 40k kitsBasically some members of the army are more fallen towards chaos than others. My thought point is "Using 30k bits together with 40k bits is a nice way to make the army more of "my dudes" but painting up a bunch of HH models and calling it a 40k army is hella gay.
>>96589378two out of my three armies suck, they should fix that
>>96589321They could get away with it back then because their target audience were nerds who were completely okay with all kinds of fucked up stuff, but now the average modern nerd gets physically uncomfortable with concepts like slavery or rape, and will likely protest to seeing it in any media or fan discussion. Now that they’re wanting to expand to normies (who have always baulked at over the top content), and their mainstay audience no longer likes it, there’s no real reason to keep promoting edgy aspects of 40K
>>96588744>the first founding chapter with the least amount of fans>and gw's most awkward chapter to promote to where they didn't get some chaos tanks because the funny naming conventions >being in a starter boxi could see them doing that for a limited box, but they seemed to do less of those for 10th edition and there's no reason to think that wouldn't continue for 11th i would want this to see both factions actually get the support they deserve
>>96589123both units are getting fielded regardless because terminators are coolwhichever doesn't get the librarian is getting a captain slapped on
>>96589259GW makes the most money at the begining of the edition since it's when most people buy into 40k and buy an army.And to maximize the revenue gained from that it makes sense for GW to use the most "safe"/"boring" things for it. Which in this case would be Ultramarines vs Orks.Dark Eldar are just unpopular from the get go do their theming and what their main shtick as a faction is.
>>96589396>there’s no real reason to keep promoting edgy aspects of 40KMan I fucking hate modern line go up shit murdering the souls of everything it can get its grip on.
>>96589301skaven are perfectly marketable
>>96589395Get a 4th one
>>96589396>the average modern nerd gets physically uncomfortable with concepts like slavery or rapeI don't understand how we got here to begin with. I keep seeing people freak out about the inclusion of darker themes like this as being bad on its face or glorifying it. >Bad guy or group does bad things>Rape or slavery is too bad for themGod forbid the evil fucks do evil shit. God I hate fucking zoomers and Alpha
>buy second hand Chaos Knight >doesn't come with a transfer sheet for decals>only one I have laying around is the standard Necron one from an old Immortals boxBros....
Bros serious question do GW srsly make new box and combat patrol to sale models be4 refresh? I started collecting them like half year ago and im siting on 2 combat patrols atm and i dont want to get more stuff if its gonna be replaced by cooler looking stuff later. My friends are telling me to w8 with collecting more models cuz refresh is coming
>>96589416I could make a 4th one with only a couple purchases of imperial knights but they're one of the most gay AIDs anti fun armies ever produced so I don't really think it's worth it
>>96589434>God I hate fucking zoomers and AlphaIt's millenials who are crying over it mostly because it is "problematic".It's also millenials within the said studios and whatever who make this lame and gay shit.
>>96589396>>96589434I don't remember people getting weepy about it in real shops when I played, maybe you're just taking the worthless opinions of internet shut ins too seriously
>>96589437sometimes it do be like thatsometimes it's not as far as to ever look like
