>>96590721Dark Angels will get a Ravenwing release and Aeldari will get Exodites
>>96590764We'll just repost it here to keep the conversation going.10e had large releases for 10 factions (SM, Nids, DA, Tau, BA, IG, CWE, EC, SW, LoV)11E will likely have SM, Orks, "a new Army", DE, and GK get a large wave at the least. That leaves about 5 more factions to get major releases over the course of the edition. Who do you think it will be
>>96590767I would be surprised if World Eaters don't at least get their special terminators and a character to go along with them. Ravenwing refresh seems likely, as does plastic Catachan. Otherwise, I have no idea what else they'd do. Maybe special units for the other codex compliant chapters now that Ultramarines are getting unique non-character units?
Vespids should be retconned to be female
>>96590767to bring this to the new thread for convivence >>96590721Well hopefully they could finally fill out the ranks of the deity legions that aren't Deathguard. i'm expecting at least one of them to get attentionits either now or never for Deathwatch so maybe they'll get a lot of attention, or just get squatted into Agents. In any case, one of them will get a lot of attentionCustodes still have resin kits, so i can see them getting a refresh of some kind>>96590742those are defiantly coming out since the kill team box, the bikers they desperately need. not sure if 2 boxes are major releases though. i'm not sure what else they would get. perhaps giving more attention to the undivided legions, maybe giving them a characterthe 5th, your guess is good as mine. probably space marines
>>96590748TQGuardI haven’t decided on the specifics yet. Maybe I’ll do a loyalist army, a chaos army and then a breakaway nation’s army with third party models.Of course it would get expensive so all three guard armies will share the tanks that will be either painted in panzer grey or olive drab.I’ll flip a coin on what color it would be.
>>96590785>Well hopefully they could finally fill out the ranks of the deity legions that aren't DeathguardGod I hope not.
>>96590789the fuck is your problem!?
>>96590748>TQTau, Farsight Enclaves. I like the battlesuits but Ethereals just seemed lame to me, plus Farsight's new model is great
Watcha working on /40kg/? I'm doing the exhausts for my fiend.
>>96590612Hogz being Anti-V/M 4+ and -1 AP was the main problem. They even had -2 AP last edition. Clearly someone on the design team wanted to try AP as an army weakness.
>>96590792Chaos Space Marines should be in one Chaos Space Marine codex that has Chaos Space Marines, and Chaos Space Marine related vehicles and NOTHING else.
>>96590782>Hakos Baelzwould
>>96590795I'm looking at getting back into tau, any suggestions?
>TQLeagues of Votann, specifically the Ymir Conglomerate.I like their lore of being the artisans of the Votann, with an emphasis on their Einhyr since they're my favorite unit of the faction. Plus the red just really pops out from my orks and Salamanders. I know there's some on here who don't like the faction but it really cemented my dive into 40K to have a dwarf faction.
>>96590767High liklihood besides the ones mentioned:>Cogs of Vashtorr/Dark Mech army release as the "new faction">Catachan army wave>Aeldari Corsairs/Exodites>Emperor's children expansion>World Eaters expansion>DA with Ravenwing>CSM with new bikes and maybe Rhinos/Tanks and a new Helbrute or Dreadnought(which might also translate to the cult legions)>TSons expansion>Tau get new battlesuits
>>96590809It's been rumored that they'll get a FE themed christmas box with a decent amount of battlesuits, so I'd maybe wait until then. Otherwise, the current combat patrol and a box of crisis suits isn't a bad place to start.
>>96590796That’s impressive! What colors did you use?Right now I’m assembling some models.Planning on making a tank heavy guard army so chimeras will be heavily featured.Has anybody ever utilized autogun sergeants? Do they make any significant difference?
GW abandoning Catachans was a fucking mistake. Harlequins, yeah. They should have just been units you could get in both Aeldari / Dhrukari armies, not their own books. What the fuck are we doing GW. People used to FEAR catachans. Now everyone is walking around like "lol I can't breath this air without a gas mask"Catachans would just breath whatever fucking gas was in the atmosphere and power through it.
>>96590796I ain't working on shit. I spent the past two weeks building, but now it's going to rain for four days and be too humid to prime. So I'm not working on shit!But hey, that does give me more time to consider what Craftworld I want to paint them as. Any anons got strong opinions about Craftworlds?
What would you want to see from a T'au'va daemon army?
>>96590822Yeah that all seems pretty reasonable.Especially CSM getting new Rhinos, I'd bet that the base Rhino is getting replaced at the start of 11th, so that's updates across the board for a lot of stuff.>>96590835settle down, Beavis
>>96590845I wouldn't want that because the T'au'va is retarded lore, written by retards
>>96590845I just want to see a guevesa army.
I found this box in a garage sale of all things, still sealed too. It was mixed in with a bunch of unopened misc plastic models. The folks in charge it didn't seem to know anything about it, they had a nephew living with them through college that built models and he graduated & moved out 9 years ago. It was the only GW thing there, but I can't believe my luck.I am definitely building this after my current project for the collage, but I still feel a little hesitant about breaking the shrinkwrap. It's not like its a sought-after collector item or anything, but still.
>>96590850'Guard with better lasguns' just isn't the most interesting thing to me. I'd rather they go with more exotic new auxiliaries if they were going to add more. I get why other people want them though
>>96590767>That leaves about 5 more factions to get major releases over the course of the edition. Who do you think it will be?First up is the easy one - Catachan. 9th was Cadian, 10th was Krieg, this one will be Catachan (At the very least new Catachan Jungle Fighters, HWT, a Command Squad, a new Character, and maybe one or two other units)World Eaters up next. Red Butchers, proper Terminators, the Medic, and some berserkers on Bloodcrushers. ezpz.CSM as well. New kits for Bikes, non-monopose Obliterators, and then maybe a new Daemon Engine.I could definitely see Necron getting a wave too. Since we're getting a new Nightbringer this edition maybe we'll get the Bananaman in 11th plus a new unit.Custodes are a maybe. They're getting a push in HH but I could see some of their Forgeworld stuff being in either 30k or 40k.
>>96590845nothing, that's dumb. Tauva barely even exists. It would make way more sense and be way more fluffy to expand the client races and maybe add a couple nods to Tauva in there. Like Guevesa troops and a couple of them have little icons on their belt or something
>>96590853No fuck the lore that says Guevesa are as well equipped as real Tau troops, I hate this tug-o-war shit the writers perform with the Tau lore, flipping a switch between pure noble bright heroes and worse that the Imperium.
>>96590849Most new Tau lore is just GW responding to the criticisms of old Tau lore.>They're too noblebright!Their darker elements got emphasized.>They're too small, the Imperium would just wipe them out!They got several size expansions>They're too primitive! They don't even have Titans!They got bigger battlesuits.>They're too naive to daemons, they'll get wiped out by Chaos!They have a warp goddess to protect them now.
Has gw ever made an edition longer than the usual amount of years an edition lasts or do they rigidly stick to their three year schedule?
>>96590767New army candidates:>Dark Mechanicus / Heretic mortals>Exodites>Xenos faction given new importance like Votann were. Old Ones, Hrud, Chaos Xenos unified force, Khrave.Major releases>Deldar>Orks get another klan line>Cult marines>GK>Primarch (Don’t want this but money)
>>96590853>'Guard with better lasguns' just isn't the most interesting thing to me.Why would they be that?I've always thought Guevesa should be melee troops with carapace armor. It would fill a unique slot in the Tau range, while also representing both that the Tau can arm their basic human troops better than the Imperium, and they consider them more expendable than the Tau
>>96590859I don't see how that's relevant. It's still retarded, written by a retard even if retarded fans demanded it first.>Their darker elements got emphasizedYeah sure
>>965908674th Sphere Expansion.
>>96590860I think 8th was the start of the 3 year cycle. Most editions before that lasted significantly longer
>>96590865>guevesa get power axes and become the tau empire rosenritter >used for boarding imperium ships I kind of like this.
anyone got the art of the tau child in front of a Biel-Tan flag as they shoot a terrorist video?
>>96590853What do you think of a mixed "T'au Auxiliaries" squad where they have an averaged out statline but instead of static options, you roll a D3 at the start of the game. For example:Entire squad: D3 to determine if the squad-wide weapons are Lasguns, Pulse Rifles, or Pulse CarbinesSpecial Weapons: 2 models roll a D3 to determine if they have a Flamer, Meltagun, or Rail RifleIt's more like older fluffier edition style unit rules but I think it'd be neat to have a unit where, much like the commander, you're not entirely sure what you're getting until they show up.
>>96590865They're hesitant to give the Tau any decent melee, there's like 1 good melee kroot unit and that's it for non-characters
>>96590796Almost at highlighting.
>>96590861>>Dark Mechanicus / Heretic mortalsThis seems likely. Lost and the Damned, a book containing Traitor Guard, Cultists, Beastmen, and Dark Mek would make more sense to me, but people seem to really like the idea of DarkMek so maybe it'll just be them>>ExoditesNot as their own book, they'll be in the Eldar tome>>Xenos faction given new importance like Votann were. Old Ones, Hrud, Chaos Xenos unified force, Khrave.Not a chance.
I feel like once Van Vets and Assault Terminators get refreshed there’s really nothing else for GW to do for Space Marines besides Honor Guards for various chapters 3 models, but highly customizable dudes for everyone. Feel like regular Vets would lose their niche in that timeline though.
>>96590869Punished by the central government. Tau since their introduction have been a fight between different authors wildly different views on what the Tau should be. Their entire lore gets flipped on its head EVERY book.
>>96590880Why's Homer Simpson a Templar?
>>96590884Can you explain this further please with how the tau are constantly being treated?I always thought they were space America in a weird way.
>>96590829Vallejo fluo red, then trollslayer orange, flash gitz yellow and a little bit of ushabti bone.
>>96590876It's an interesting idea on the surface but it'd cause people who are anal about WYSIWYG to have an aneurysm. I don't think it'd be easy to balance either, because why wouldn't you just take fire warriors instead? They'd have to have their points be priced substantially cheaper.
>>96590875no flag but everything else is right
>>96590850You'll get a kill team at best, probably something like>10 unit blob of what's basically a Strike Team>Models are basically just the Tau kit but 10% beefier and with human hands/feet>Get some special weapon options, maybe an Ion Rifle or some sort of drone controller>One model is just a plain old Tau soldier included to act as a handler for the guevesa>Don't even get custom rules in 40k, intended to just run them as Strike/Breacher Teams.
>>96590893Thanks anon!
>>96590889He was never the same after he got that cross shaped forehead dent
>>96590874Exactly! It would make a ton of sense, and people already say Tau are the anime army
"Some nights, I pray for the guy who first figured out you can take a spare sentinel cockpit and turn it into basically an underhive rickshaw. I mean, he's probably a servitor now, right? You started seeing these pop up a bunch after the last big refit-legs break down more than engines, and the cockpit frame on the new models is directly welded to the engine compartment, so a lot of regiments wind up with a bunch of spares lying around and just begging for someone to do something like this. Anyway, if these are really tech heresy, how come regimental enginseers agree to build them so often?"-MB(the base is just to stand it on for pictures, it's not actually glued to one since I'll be using it as a cyclops demolition vehicle).
>>96590897A kill team will be enough to send the community into a frenzy.Probably not the same level the plastic kriegers did when they first appeared but a frenzy will be happening if official guevesa models come out in any capacity.
>>96590748Main army is Space Marines, specifically Dark Krakens.I guess the main draws for them were the color scheme (black+color always looks solid), aquatic focused (related to IRL stuff), and the realization that I can /myguys/ them to make them more of a rapid amphibious assault flavor instead of something like Underwater/Pacific Rim/That one Bionicle trailer
>>96590910This seems delusional to me but good luck with your KT squad hopes.
>>96590915It is all delusional hopes I’ll give you that. But I do firmly believe that the community will go nuts when official guevesa models are revealed. Even if they are just a kill team.They won’t go as wild as the plastic kriegers made the community go wild but wild expressions will be had.
>>96590882Yeah they are low on options. After Chaos mortal and an Exodite Harlequin sized range they are going to have to make something else important or stop.
>>96590748>What is your main army, what subfaction (Chapter, Craftworld, etc) did you paint them as, and why did you choose that subfaction?Sisters of BattleOrder of Our Martyred LadyBecause I went through a goth phase when I got into 40k and it matched the style, over the years I learned to stop worrying and love the black and red paints. Sidenote, I got the old Orks combat patrol and I painted them goff. My armies look like a hyper-violent ska band.
>>96590910I think an issue is that copyright means that whatever design they go for will have to go in a different direction than fan art. No one will be happy in that situation I think.
>>96590939Mega Dragonair and pokemon.
>>96590939I guess the monkey’s paw has to curl somewhere at something.
All my armies are /yourdudes/ to a basic level.My GSC are a prison world uprising, my EC are focused on creating new notes for the Ur-Song, and I'm working on a Dynasty for some 'crons. Aside from the Necrons being metallic, I don't think my colors are original - but they're not GW stuff to my knowledge.I have nothing to contribute.
>>96590920They could easily make a proper sized Exodite army. Wood Elfs in space with dinosaurs lends itself to all kinds of ideas for new units and characters, and has a ton of broad appeal. As opposed to Clown Elfs, who have a much more niche appeal and a smaller design space.
>>96590939I don't think that's how that works
>>96590939I don't think that's the case, it's not like the fanart is actually unique enough to be protected, it's almost all just humans in human sized Fire Warrior armor. And the fanartists didn't come up with that themselves. They would have zero claim to anything if GW came out with humans in human-sized Fire Warrior armor
>>96590962You can’t claim the concept, but if it’s too close to how the fan art expressed the concept then it may cause an issue. Game Freak scrapped an Eeveelution because the approved design was too close to a fan design, it’s not a wholly uncommon occurence.
>>96590894Sure, that makes sense. Instead of rolling for it, what about a unit with a fairly average T3 statline all the same rifle or pistol & CCW for +1 attack, and two options for special weapons, but at the beginning of the battle before deployment you choose between two abilities the squad has?Ability one: Stealth or Feel No Pain (5+), Ability two: Infiltrators or Extra Attacks (1)
Building up my army slowly, fully appreciating the building and painting of the hobby. I really enjoy my little homebrew successor chapter as well. I need to ask you fellow anons, how anal can opponents get over non GW custom bits and accessories on clear, official, GW models. I was curious about this if I ever considered getting enough for a local game as I keep on eyeing up all the accessories people make for printing and wanted to avoid those types of autists that lose their minds over an unofficial piece of plastic motif.
>>96590981Post your homebrew chapter models or I'm not answering
>>96590981Modifying official models you bought is as legit as it gets. Even GW standards say it’s an approved practice. The people that would get mad at that sort of thing would be mad at something no matter what.
>>96590981The only place it could ever possibly matter is if you're playing in an actual GW store. And even then the managers is very unlikely to give you shit about some third party bits. And even if they do you can look them dead in the eye and say you sculpted it yourself.
>>96590981If someone gets mad at you for that you are legally and morally entitled to throw them down a well. Post your models.
>>96590981Nobody who matters will care, not even GW employees at official shops, that bullshit about them not allowing third party resin bits only applies to events at warhammer world in nottingham
>>96590955>, and has a ton of broad appeal.Nope.None buys eldar
>>96590896Man, I love when Ulthwe focuses on the bone color more than the black.
Votann Codex pdf??
>>96590835>Catachans>power through it.Good joke
>>96590981I personally won’t lose my mind over you using non-GW bits for your models. What I will absolutely lose my mind over is you not posting your models.Post models.
>>96590835>t. hasn't read Deathworlder
>>96591052That dude is so awesome. How would he fare in 40K?
>>96591052Why does he talk like my dementia addled grandpa?

>>96591076I've been really enjoying this project anon, keep it up.
>>96590782
>>96591028>None buys eldarESL opinions are not to be heeded
>>96591092Eldar.
>Orks are infinite waves of infantry >Tyranids are infinite waves of monsters and chaff>Necrons are infinite waves of not!Zombies>Chaos is infinite waves of demons>Tau is infinite waves of battlesuits>Imperium is infinite planets
>>96591084It is a lot of fun to do something purely for creative purposes once in a while. Really glad I decided to do it.
>>96590835Jesus, anon, they're just the dumbest parts of the Rambo movies made into an army. At best, they should be a few specialist units like the Harlequins you dismiss.
>>96590905That's hilarious and perfectly Imperium
>>96591111I based it off the Varlet from Brigador. I figure they probably (usually) stick a servitor in there to drive it.
>>96591119>>96590905Love it. It looks like it fits right in.
So if I understand correctly, during the heresy Horus even became stronger than the chaos gods?
>>96591142What is happening in those shit ass books
>>96590845yo delete tau from the game
>>96591142It's not clear that he was stronger per se, but they were all channeling their power through him in order to topple the Emperor and Terra. You could say he was stronger than any one of them in that time, but it was only by their will. If he had tried to turn their power against them, they would have simply unplugged.
>>96591147He knows, he just enjoys flagrantly say dumb shit because it gets people mad, and he then gets more enjoyment because they can’t do shit about it. He’d be a perfect /tg/ poster if he was into 40K
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96591142No.The pecking order is>Asuryan (Full Power)>Gork and MorkPOWER GAP>Chaos Gods>Eldar Pantheon (Fall of the Eldar Era)>Hive MindPOWER GAP 2>Tau'va>The EmperorPOWER GAP 3>Horus
>>96590782this image should be a bannable offense
Reminder that you can destroy infinite Imperial worlds and the writers will keep creating new ones. Destroy as many as you want, the Imperium will always have more. So long as it's not an actual plot important place like Terra or Ultramar, the Imperium can suffer any number of losses because the worlds you destroyed literally didn't exist before the story that destroyed them.The Imperium is unstoppable. The Emperor has already won.
>>96591028I buy Eldar
>>96591189wow so meta wow amazing wow
>>96591189>UltramarAnon…..
>>96591189>The Imperium has Infinite Worlds>So do the Tau>Orks have Infinite Boys>Eldar have Infinite Craftworlds>Necrons have Infinite Tombs>Chaos has Infinite Daemon Worlds
>>96590782no.
>>96591201Them's some pretty lips, she meeting her Human husband later?
>>96591184>Gork and Mork at topWhat do Gork and Mork even do? Much of their power seems to only be to allow non-sensical stuff to happen, but even then only by a little bit, and the boyz still have to do the heavy lifting unlike chaos gods who can do all sorts of bullshit without the person needing to necessarily believe in them.
>>96590951>Ur-SongExplain, are the E working towards making the one ultimate song in their fluff or is that all you? Cool idea if so
>>96591217Gork and Mork don't exist as independent warp entities. They only "manifest" when weirdboys use psychic powers.
>>96591206The lore says Eldar would never have sex with humans because they basically see humans as dogs, but they always depict female Eldar as white...
>>96591184>>96591217I'm more wondering why Tau'va is that high? It's even above the emperor.
>>96591217They fight>>96591222If this is from what I was thinking of then it's a flawed interpretation of a flawed interpretation; Brooks' Orks were saying that Gork n Mork are manifested through Ork belief in the same way all Chaos gods are.
>>96591225Men also fuck dogs a lot, honestly rape of people by dark eldar is canon, just not talked about since its a form of power and humiliation and degerenacy that they are all about
>>96591228nta but I would guess because Tauva once hurled an entire Tau fleet out of the Warp and the becalmed an entire Death Guard in the Warp to stop them from reaching Tau space. Which are much bigger demonstrations of direct influence than the Emperor's Living Saints and tarot readings.
>>96591236>Men also fuck dogs a lotThat's a sexist and gross claim, and I would prefer if you didn't post such things in the Warhammer thread.
>>96591217Gork and Mork are so high above the Chaos Gods that it bores them, as Gork and Mork only care about having a good fight and if they bothered to fight the other Gods it'd be an unfun stomp.So Gork and Mork continue to just fight each other, as they only really have fun fighting each other.
>>96591241Tauva can't have anywhere near as many worshippers as the emperor though, all things considered, it should have fairly small numbers of worshippers. It doesn't make sense for it to be more powerful than the emperor.
>>96591201I like little details like the ear plugs. I can't imagine how comfortable those most but for extended periods of time but then again this is space elf technology we're talking about.
>>96591225Humans are not dogs, dogs are actually useful. No, they're filthy shit-flinging apes. Ignorant, trifling baboons stinking up every planet they come across. If you see a mon-keigh move in near your Craftworld, you have to scare them off fast or kiss your property value goodbye. The whole sector will smell like lho-leaf cheap malt liquor. Hive gang violence will be rampant. We must secure the existence of our people and a future for Eldar children.
>>96591249Like 90% of the power given to the God-Emperor just goes towards maintaining the Astronomicon. But he did burn Nurgle's garden recently too. Also he has living saints.By contrast, the Tau'va isn't all that powerful, her influence is mostly regional. If you attack the Tau Empire she'll probably be there to help out, but you won't see her elsewhere.
>>96591262>We must secure the existence of our people and a future for Eldar children.
>>96591249The Emperor is worshipped in myriad and disjounted ways which are often backwards and incoherent. Standardized worship is rare and often glossed over for the sake of resources.There's just as many Humans indirectly worshipping Chaos in the Imperium as there are direct Emperor worshippers
>>96591249The Emperor is still tied to his physical body. He is the most powerful guy ever but he is still a guy, and that limits him. That's why there's the theory that if the Emperor were to be allowed to die he would become a Warp god in his own right and be able to do a lot more stuff to help humanity.
Also worth noting is the possibility that the Tau'va's power comes from the future. The warp doesn't work based on real time, so it's entirely possible that the Tau Empire becomes massive in the future and that's where the current goddess is drawing her power from.
>>96591225>>96591262Eldae view humans as savage, smelly, and dirty barbarians. Imagine the Romans coming to Britain and finding the local tribes running around in pelts with pointy sticks.Or Conquistadors finding the Middle-American tribes.Take that as you will.
R8 my Emperors Children OCs. Im getting back into writing. >Marine #1: Face looks like a blind cave tetra. Withered his eyeballs from too much light exposure / torture. Is seeking to create a truly nasty lightshow using explosive powders derived from human spinal fluid. Behind his mania, he really just wants to see normally again. Only one of the trio to get away scot free. >Marine #2: Was granted skin as soft as a newborn. Exposes much of his body, in private rubs various exotic materials against himself and keeps a catalogue of how pleasurable / painful each object is. At the end he fucks up and Slaanesh curses him with unfeeling stone skin. >Marine #3: Bored with conventional violence. Considered artsy-fartsy even by EC standards. Finds a book filled with Tzeentch bullshit, detailing a list of perfect soulmates who will never meet. He kidnaps ten such pairs of people and has them (unwittingly) kill their would-be soulmate with advancing levels of brutality, going from oldest to youngest. Gets asshurt because the last pair is rescued, which to him is like defacing a painting.
>>96591299>Eldae view humans as savage, smelly, and dirty barbarians. Imagine the Romans coming to Britain and finding the local tribes running around in pelts with pointy sticks.>Or Conquistadors finding the Middle-American tribes.So Eldar chicks prefer human males?
>>96591281>Tau'va's power comes from the future>Meaning most likely the Tau did come to replace Humanity as the galaxies dominate power>They also survived and thrived despite the tyranid swarms, necron reawakening, ork WAAGHs, and the human Chaos powers and many other threatsAnon thats so based and correct I want to kiss you
Humans view Eldar as effete degenerates because they had an orgy so fucked up that it created a chaos god and now it wants to eat their degraded souls. Even what amounts to their version of the amish are driven to become pathetic pirates simply so they can feel something.>>96591225Eldar would have sex with dogs. There are very few things Eldar wouldn't do
>>96591299The Conquistadors were amazed by the wealth and beauty of Tenochtitlan.
>>96591260>but then again this is space elf technology we're talking about.Not really, eldars haven't done shit on their own, they're just using the tech the old ones left them. In all the time since the war in heaven, they haven't evolved, so much for the "superior race" lol.
>>96590767Hopium is some sort of Alpha Legion line or killteam. I like the idea of CSM but would like something with a little less corruption.The realistic answer is we'll get White Scars, Fists, or Salamanders broken off into their own books or something to justify more marineslop.
Where are all the intact building terrain pieces? I'd like to build a city but all I can find are ruins, even on etsy. Is scratchbuild the only way?
>>96590796Blocked out the purple on my Trygon Prime
>>96591314I would assume 99.9999999% of humanity know absolutely nothing about Eldar history, let alone their involvement in the birth of Slaanesh
>>96591310Some would. You probably have all sorts of sordid and dirty literature on Craftworlds about Eldar and Human relationships, that young Eldar hide under their beds and older single Eldar are embarassed to enjoy.
>In a bright flurry of shattering silhouettes, the Troupe of Joyful Tears departed the webway. The hall on the far side of the portal was of lifeless stone, part-panelled in wood killed a thousand light years away and brought in slow-drying agony across the stars. This world was as dead as its ruler. The stink of humanity lay thick upon it, the statues near the ceiling coated in dust, the shed skin cells of people five hundred cycles gone. The psychic effect was a hideous weight, thousands of years of human suffering pressing in on Lhaerial’s sensitive mind, and that was the least of it.>Crushing the sensation of the dead of the Earth was the titanic presence of the Corpse Emperor. Such power made Lhaerial’s mind reel, and for a moment her contempt for the creatures of Terra wavered. The mind of the Emperor was a mountain in the surging madness of the Othersea, blinding in its brilliance. The Great Powers circled this place like razorshark waiting out the death throes of a void-whale. That terrible presence held them back, and all His little servants were ignorant of it! Unease gripped her, that she would be noticed by the Dark Gods or their defier, and the fragile flame of her being snuffed out. The feeling passed. The regard of the things of the Othersea was ossified, so long had they fixed their gaze on the Earth. The Emperor did not shift His regard. His attention was elsewhere, upon the blinding pyre of souls, navigation beacon of the mon-keigh. She had no indication she was seen. There was little relief in that. She had laughed in the face of She Who Thirsts, but the Corpse Emperor filled her with a sense of dread.
>>96591320>Havocs = Iron Warriors>Possessed = Word Bearers>Raptors = Nightlords (even getting a new Kill team)they need some sorta sniper/ambusher to represent the Alpha Legion and then especially an upgrade spru for them
>>96591281Gw would never canonize something as cool like that. As much as I want it to be so.Like if I could canonize one fantheory this would be the one.
>>96591314You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, do you? Eldar version of the amish are Excodites and they aren't corsairs. Craftworlder Eldar's entire culture revolves around keeping themselves busy so they don't indulge in base impulses. Outcasts are a small minority of their population and most of those choose to become rangers, not pirates.
>>96591260I wear earplugs every single day at work, you eventually just get used to them as long as they fit your individual ears properly
>>96591299>Where do latinos come from for 400, Alex
>>96591314Wrong, only very few Humans knows of the Fall of the Eldar, and most all of those are Inquisitors.Most Humans who meet Eldar view them with awe and minor anxiety, as Eldar have an ethereal and beautiful quality to them that makes them attractive to Humans regardless of gender.
>>96591311I've always liked the idea of the Tau as the rising power. 40k works much better as a cyclical history instead of an 'end of days' imo. The galaxy survived the War in Heaven, the Iron Men rebellion and the Dark Ages, the Fall of the Eldar, and the Horus Heresy. The idea that the galaxy will end when the Imperium falls always felt pretty cringe in that smug prideful way.
>>96591340>Craftworlder Eldar's entire culture revolves around keeping themselves busy so they don't indulge in base impulses.Huh, does serving their human husbands really saves them from Slaanesh?
Why can’t custodes get the Quinn treatment?
>>96591348I don’t like the idea of tau at all so I don’t agree with you on any single point.
>>96591340Exodites do become corsairs. Both they and the craftworld are equivalent to the amish though, they have adopted ascetic paths that cut them off from their true desires in order to avoid being degenerate. The Dark Eldar, who are really just the Eldar, are the largest Eldar faction and are directly descended from their primarily civilization. They call themselves the true kin, and they are not wrong. To see what the Aeldari are like you just need to take a vacation in Commorragh
>>96591354Why?
Does anyone varnish their models for tabletop use? If so what do you useI noticed a tiny bit of paint rubbing off on some of my models revealing the primer underneath, and would like to avoid ruining them through normal play.
>>96591350You're right they should add clown babes with cartoonishly large features to harlies
>>96591360varnishing is crucial for models you're actually gaming withI use ak interactive ultra matte for my loyalists and ultra matte mixed with gloss 4:1 for my world eaters, the latter gives a nice satin finish that's more subtle than most satin varnishes I've tried
>>96591348I think Tau as the rising power could be better cemented if we actually saw fire warriors defeating space marines and guardsmen. Not just in some codex text but like in a video game or cinematice that the secondaries will see since thats how a lot of people get their unbderstanding of 40k now
>>96591365cool, I'm guessing you apply that with an airbrush then?
>>96591274>There's just as many Humans indirectly worshipping Chaos in the Imperium as there are direct Emperor worshippersChaos gods get empowered by all negative emotions, but it isn't remotely comparable to actual worship. Fabius Bile started to become a god because his small number of creations began worshipping him. The emperor has quadrillions of worshippers on Terra alone. You don't put your foot up Nurgle's ass and have it stick because you're weak
>>96591360AK gloss followed by AK matte sprayed with the cheapest airbrush you can find. Fucked around with two many rattle can varnishes that did some weird ahit to bother with them anymore
>>96591360Munitorum Spray is fine if you’re just looking to protect the models. Paint on varnish, matte, gloss, or satin if you want to minmax the finish for aesthetic reasons.
>>96591357>Exodites do become corsairsI've never heard of an Exodite leaving their maiden world to be a corsair. It's certainly not impossible as the two groups do interact, but I'm curious if you have a source? Is there some novel with a Exodite turned pirate?
>>96591350what do you mean?should they be squated? to what? agents?
>>96591376What do you dilute the varnishes with in the airbrush cup?I am getting into airbrushing.
>>96591335Even just some sort of Eliminator/Scput equivalent would be a reasonable ask.
>>96591375Why do you keep ignoring that Draigo burned Nurgle's Garden? Not a part of it. All of it.Who is worshipping Draigo? Stop glazing the Emperor. Nurgle's Garden is plenty flamable on its own.>>96591381Da Big Dakka and Lelith novels. The former says that all Aeldari from various branches have switched to other branches of the Aeldari race. The latter has Exodites joining the Ynnari.
>>96591360Ak ultra matte is the good shit, don't bother with vallejo or citadel
>>96591381I don't think there are any important named characters but corsairs often form alliances with exodites and interact with them regularly just like some the dark city as a port. Some corsair groups are based on maiden worlds.
>>96591389Same as normal. Thinner with a little bit of flow improver 4:1 is what Vince recommends in his videos, and it's worked well enough for me.
>>96591393>Brooks loreYikes
>>96591393>Why do you keep ignoring that Draigo burned Nurgle's Garden? Not a part of it. All of it.>Who is worshipping Draigo? Stop glazing the Emperor. Nurgle's Garden is plenty flamable on its own.Go to bed Mike. You aren't fammiliar with source material, Big E is stronger than Chaos Gods and stronger than Gorkamorka
>>96591393>Why do you keep ignoring that Draigo burned Nurgle's Garden? Not a part of it. All of it.>Who is worshipping Draigo? Stop glazing the Emperor. Nurgle's Garden is plenty flamable on its own.Not remotely the same. Godblight makes it explicit that Nurgle himself was harmed and all his daemons feel it too, they cannot make the pain go away and believe it will remain for eons. Which is exactly what you would expect if the emperor was being empowered by millennia of worship I said this last thread but if you apply logic to then the emperor should be strong enough to defeat all the chaos gods at this point.
Eldar view humans the way continental Europeans view Americans. They are retarded, barely literate, hyper religious freaks but they are really good at blowing shit up so you have to coddle them.
>>96591393>Da Big Dakka and Lelith novelsMike Brooks legitimately doesn't understand Eldar lore since his only interest in it is Dark Eldar MTF 'lesbians'.
>>96591389Personally I like AK thinner for their varnishes and primers but you can use anything really
>>96591408He gets killed by 8 Bloodthirsters in Eldrad's vision. So no.
>>96591411>. They are retarded, barely literate, hyper religious freaks but they are really good at blowing shit up so you have to coddle them.And their chicks are still willingly spread legs in front of american man, while european male population extinct
>>96591411Surely this post won't lead to the thread blowing up with off topic racist shit
>>96591420>in Eldrad's vision.So it's safe to assume it's certainly not happening.
>>96591411Please don't insult the Eldar by comparing them to Europeans.
>>96591392as it stands now, it actually feels more reasonable to run alpha legion as regular SM than CSMi just don't see them using daemon engines or mutantshonestly i don't like iron warriors or even nightlords using that stuff either but i could see why someone else might like that, but not for alpha legion
Eldar view Humans however you want them to, because outside of the established Craftworlds there's hundreds more that you can make up the cultures of.
>>96591409You just spouted a fallacy.Draigo's psychic power comes from the Emperor's geneseed. Grey Knights, as per the codex, draw on the Warp the same way the Emperor does. Their very presence is anathema to daemonkind. Heck, even their names are a weapon against Chaos.You have no proof that it's not the same. Secondly, you are well aware that GW reworked how faith in 40K.
>>96591429How exactly it's insulting? Eldar are faction of humiliation rituals, which fits pretty well
>Have $230>It's my own money too as I started working not long ago>Always wanted to play the table top but never had the money to do so>I also need to paint and I suck at paintingDo I go for it? I wanna get the Eldar Combat Patrol, the Codex, and a couple paints to make Iyanden. How much would it cost me on an estimate?
>>96591431Poor rhetoric.Your craftworld cannot be xenophopic and still to be alive.
>>96591403Can I get a link to one of his videos where he brings up such ratios please?
>>96591438You havr to be 18 to post here
>>96591438>Do I go for it? Pick a different army
>>96591438 Dont buy 10th edition codexes
>>96591441Type in hobby cheating and varnishing
>>96591428Also, another vision from Abaddon's seers that includes a daemon prince from the future. The Emperor dies and Chaos wins.
>>96591439>Your craftworld cannot be xenophopic and still to be alive.Huh?
>>96591432Nvm I didn’t realize you were that retarded and delusional faithfag. I shall not be wasting my time arguing with someone of your limited intellect
>>96591447Hobby cheating 235 is the video?
>>96591438invest into your education instead kid
>>96590865your kroot? also Guevesa are possibly the most boring fucking thing in the setting.>What if aliens had human troopsin a setting where 75% of armies are human>>96590853Tau have shit like psychic polar bears in the setting I 100% want more Tau auxilaries that aren't a shit statline that has 0 interaction or synergy with the armies rules like kroot were for the longest time.
>>96591332>If Big E actually spared them a moment's notice
>>96591450See Hammer and Bolter to learn what happens with Craftworlds who doesn't accept human males in their society.Also, it's literally a plot point of Corsair novel (corsair princess lures orks fleet to Craftworld because it's rulers were to rude to Lelith)
>>96591449>Abaddon's seersSo it's safe to assume it's certainly not happening.
>>96591438230$ is not enough, get a job with a pension first
>>96591438If you also need paints as well you're going to have a hard time with just 230 bucks. Save 500. It'll give you enough wiggle room to buy all the models, paints and books you need with wiggle room for any surprises. Also it's almost the end of the edition, so the codexes are only gonna be good until next June or July when the edition drops. I think save your money for longer and plan out your paintscheme, math everything out and start buying stuff aside from the books around Christmas and then paint up all your guys, and then when the new edition drops you'll have a painted force ready to go, and just need the new books
>>96591464>See Hammer and BolterNobody with a functioning brain wants to see Hammer and Bolter, anon
The Emperor is the most powerful being in 40k but his psyche is fragmented. If he ever got the star child and his ability to focus back he probably would just start doing miracles everywhere and chaos would get curb stomped
>>96591473Big E wasnt even in the top 10 psykers at his peak.
>>96591472Cope harder eldarfag.
>>96591475Please stop polluting the thread with your inane troll takes
>>96591475Ik this is bait but like atleast try harderThe literal entire basis of 40k is that the emperor was the most powerful psyker to ever live.
>>96591475The Emp was literally so strong he was a candidate for chaos god, and chaos gods mog Eldar pantheon, old ones and c'tan shards.
>>96591370Yeah, we really need more animations and video games showing off the Tau being badasses, I've seen people unironically suggest that it would take 1,000 battlesuits to kill a single custodes because of how one-sided the wank tends to get.
>>96591453I accepted your concession.You are really riding too hard for a throwaway BL line that's presented as vague in its own text.
>>96591486>The Emp was literally so strong he was a candidate for chaos godYou mean he was vulnerable to become a chaos god. A truly just and strong psyker would never allow that to become a possibility.
>>96591486No. The Emperor gave up the mantle of the Dark King. It changed from the Dark King to the Despoiler.
>>96591438>made my first 230 dollars ever>I NEED TO SPEND IT RIGHT NOWbro kill that energy right now, that gets really dangerous the older you get. Try and make it so that you are never spending more than half of all your savings at once.
>>96591487A Custodes was one-shot by an Armiger. A Crisis suit has a decent chance of dropping a Custodes
i want to use this for a chaos army, but what do i do with the dreadnaught and big ole turret?
>>96591487That pic isn't anything like what deviantart described tau society as what the frick
Is this still canon?
>>96591476>Not paying for a Whalehammer+ subscription to watch poorly animated slop is copeLooks like we found the guy who keeps buying the Primaris lieutenants.
>>96591497>turretIdk, stick it on a rhino and make it a hydra>dreadnoughtDo that sick conversion with the gk dreadknight arms
>>96591503I love seeing these, I had a mostly complete but battered Space Crusade set given to me by my cousins after they found out I was into 40k. It seemed like a pretty cool game.
>>96591504>keeps buying the Primaris lieutenants.Problems?
>>96591487I feel like orks also need this kind of treatment, people think they're incapable of building any large amount of vehicles/ships or using tactics when we have numerous examples of warbosses making coordinated plans of attack and even building starfleets or titan legions of their own.
>>96591508I'm organizing scans to print my own set, wish me luck.
>>96591486>and chaos gods mog Eldar pantheon*The depowered and faith-starved Eldar Pantheon, which took sixty million years of subtle manipulations to weaken enough for the Chaos Gods to stand a chance. Even then the Chaos Gods couldn't fully kill the Eldar Gods, and they still live on inside Slaanesh growing stronger again as the Craftworlds give them renewed Faith.
>>96591501That's the other thing actually.We never see Tau society itself so people get the idea that they're like...quaint little civilized worlds. But that's not true at all.A developed Tau world is essentially what a Hive World would've been like during the Golden Age of Technology, they're ecumenopolises with trillions of people that are highly automated. It's the reason the Tau are able to have such industrial superiority despite being a fraction the size, it's not just because they care about the lives of their soldiers more, but also because their population and planets are way more efficient and productive than Imperium planets.
>>96591512Good luck anon
>>96591438I'm assuming you're American so here's a few pro tips:>Combat Patrol is fine to start with, but skip the Codex. As balance patches and points updates come out every few months the paper Codex becomes a paperweight. Buy only if you really REALLY want to read the lore stuff, but at that point you might as well just find PDFs for it. >If you can find it for under $200, also try to track down the previous Combat Patrol with the Farseer, Guardian Defenders, Windriders, and Wraithlord. The two boxes together will make a pretty good foundation for a 1k list. >The Combat Patrol magazine is finishing up releasing its Eldar portion this month in the US, if you hunt around ebay you may be able to find the Eldar-related issues on there (21-29). Since you're doing Iyanden be on the lookout when 39 releases since it'll have another squad of Wraithguard. Be forewarned that yellow is one of the harder colors to paint, though if you want to make your life easier you can Wraithbone Primer > purple recess wash > Iyanden Yellow contrast paint your way to a decent looking yellow base coat.
>>96591514>The depowered and faith-starved Eldar Pantheon,That's not how faith works in 40k>and they still live on inside Slaanesh growing stronger again as the Craftworlds give them renewed FaithNo they don't.
>>96591511I think that Helsreach is probably one of the best animations for making the Orks look intimidating. But yes, we definitely need more of that kind of thing.
>>96591470>Also it's almost the end of the edition, so the codexes are only gonna be good until next June or July when the edition dropsYou're telling me they STILL haven't updated the Eldar codex?Also, it's only just Khorne Red, Abbadon Black, some white paint, and some gold.>>96591492I've spent $70. >$60 on pic related and $10 for some other game
>>96591520>That's not how faith works in 40kThat's literally how it works. The Emperor only gained his power through the faith Humanity put in him.>No they don'tThebflame in Asuryan's shrine on Iyanden reignites by itself at the end of Valedor. The Phoenix Lords still receive fragmentary messages from Asuryan himself as per the Jain Zar book.
Testing is fun, narrowing down the technique all 170+ models will be done. I found that speedpaint, primer is all awesome with sticking to the flexible plastic. Durability test after a bit, to see if I need to add the X-22 topcoat before doing the next step.So far what the hobby knife is touching is my favorite. I have other unmentionable tests not included here. Rubbing alcohol is my friend.
>>96591514>still live on inside Slaanesh growing stronger again as the Craftworlds give them renewed Faith.You're confusing AoS lore with 40k lore
>>96591520>That's not how faith works in 40kThe harlequin codex says that the gods were weakened by the Aeldari abandoning them.>No they don't.A 6th ED vision shows the Aeldari gods emerging from Slaanesh.
>>96591522I have seen people in this very general think that orks are incapable of traveling to other planets on their own and that the spores just float to other planets and orks are just isolated small tribes of primitive cavemen that sometimes build guns and tanks.
>>96591510That pic kinda just reaffirms what I said about slop and Primaris faggotry, so no. No problems.
>>96591519>Be forewarned that yellow is one of the harder colors to paint, though if you want to make your life easier you can Wraithbone Primer > purple recess wash > Iyanden Yellow contrast paint your way to a decent looking yellow base coatHere's the last one I painted
>>96591526>That's literally how it works. The Emperor only gained his power through the faith Humanity put in him.Not anymore.Faith power is not of the Warp.
>>96591528You're the one who has it backwards.The old Elf gods are dead in AoS, their mantles have been taken up by the new Gods.Asuryan still lives within Slaanesh in 40k, which lends credit to the other Gods surviving as well.
>>96591534are you gonna finish it
So is the new Drukhari codex a win or a flop?
>>96591532Stay mad nomodels
>>96591510Look at how retarded these things look, lmao.
>>96591536The pathetic attempt to market Sisters of Battle by making them sooper speshul for Pariah Nexus is not real proof.
>>96591370>>96591487Tau can’t even get into DoW4 over Admech because they are unpopular
>>96591529Ignore this guy. He has already ruined multiple threes with his sperging nonsense. Not sure if troll or retarded but it doesn’t really matter
>>96591541>nomodelShall we see yours, anon?
Gentlemen please, we've gone off the original topic.Do Eldar women fuck Human men or not?
>>96591526>That's literally how it works. The Emperor only gained his power through the faith Humanity put in him.Opposite. Faith isn't related to warp as Pariah Nexus stated.>at the end of Valedor.>as per the Jain Zar book.Nice collection of fics you've got here.
>>96591550>Do Eldar women fuck Human men or not?Nids, Crons and Orks are dicklets, so it's not like they have any other pertners except Tau and Humans.
Unpopular army is unpopular because it’s hard to play and has very few units.Lets remove more units and make it harder to play!
>>96591539It's been a year since I painted it, I bought that Eldar box in 2023. Mainly just been doing Gunpla cause it reminds me of Bionicles and the pieces are bigger.
>>96591550race mixing is for aos not 40k.
>>96591551>Faith isn't related to warp as Pariah Nexus stated.See >>96591545
>>96591538In AoS, Khorne claimed the heart of Khaine after his death. He couldn't corrupt or destroy it so he threw it into the Mortal Realms. Had Morathi not stolen it and used for her ends, the heart would have regrown into a new Khaine.The lore surrounding this bit of lore states that the old Eld Gods are cyclical and would revive given time.
>>96591529>6th ED visionWhy not from 3rd edition or whatever?>vision shows the Aeldari gods emerging from Slaanesh.It's literally part of Ynnead arc, which ended in Psychic Awakening.
>>96591562Nice denial, but it's still a lore.
>>96591568Then so is Valedor.
>>96591569>Then so is Valedor.Valedor is directly linked to Ynnead arc and it's ended in Psychic Awakening.
>>96591516I didn't read your post about tau lore because there's no pics of boobs attached to it
>>96590796Some SG.Idk what happened but the leadbelcher I was using ended up being really shitty and prone to tearing. Sticking with stormhost silver for now. Gonna see if I can get my hands on some p3 quicksilver.
>>96591570No. It hasn't. As per the Lelith novel, Yvraine hasn't given up.
>>96591570And Pariah Nexus ended with Guilliman getting his ass kicked and thinoing he should make an alliance with the Eldar because whatever 'Faith' is isn't good enough.Your point?
>>96591524No eldar got their codex. That's why people are telling you to skip it for now because your rules and guys will change come 11th maybe just slightly, maybe a lot. But it'll be hard for you as a beginner to relearn the new rules so soon after you've learned the current ones.some people can do it, but I've noticed a lot of the people at our lgs who start at the end of the edition tend to quit because some part of their army they enjoyed changed drastically.
>>96591577Nah. It's a prequel to "Crusade: Pariah Nexus"
>>96591527Have you tried a drybrush of a brighter colour before your speed paints step? I know you've got a lot of dudes and it might just be your lighting but that guy looks a little dark amd flat
>>96591583You mean the Crsuade book where Faith once again turns out to be shite because Vashtorr busts into the Nexus with good old fashioned trickery and Warp power?
>>96591555It's just prep for them to be souped in 11th don't be too offended
>>96591575>No. It hasn't.>all named characters are future Ynnari except of one farseer, whose death is a reason why Harlequins helps CWE with the whole Valedor campaignOkay lol>>96591575>As per the Lelith novel, None gives a shit Mike. Game books > your novels.>>96591577>And Pariah Nexus ended with Guilliman getting his ass kicked and thinoing he should make an alliance with the Eldar because whatever 'Faith' is isn't good enough.That's because Bobby still partially naytheist. Ephrael Stern completely wrecked necrons and their anti-warp shit couldn't stop her
>>96591590>Ephrael SternYou mean the ridiculously powerful Psyker who was able to blast a Culexus to death at point blank range even though he was literally grabbing her?
>>96591575>As per the Lelith novel,Codex says otherwise
>>96591593No I mean true believer whose powers wasn't reduced by any anti-warp measures, because they are working on faith, not connection to warp.
>>96591587Vashtorr manipulated both Necrons and Admech to use their superweapons on each other. These "acts of worship" empowered Vash enough to corrupt a Necron Pylon. Also, the fact that Wyrmwood is a Webway tunnel engine helped All of that is irrelevant to the question of faith. Faith remains the greatest weapon the Imperium has against the Necrons.
>>96591497Turn the dreadnought into a forgefiend, the size is pretty close and the energy weapon can easily count for extoplasma cannons. For the turret, maybe try to figure out spider legs and turn the the turret into a venomcrawler.>>96591507>anon wants to make a chaos army>tell him to convert an IG and GK unit
no one asked or probably cares but im finally done buying all of my ultramarines army !!! i just need to pick up uriel ventris at the warhammer store tuesday and thats everything. an irl friend of mine that posts here is gonna teach me how to play ! now to get this stuff assemnled and painted......
>>96591587>>96591601>Vashtorrwho?
>>96591603Wait did you just buy like 2000 points before playing 1000 points?
>>96591603Why would you purchase an entire army all at once, before even starting on assembly of anything? Have you ever painted a model before? Even put a miniature together?
>>96591586Problem is theres some stuff I'm trying to hide(manufacturers side) issues I don't want to go through the trouble of hiding. So I'm going dark with the models. The legs are offset, non matching sizes to their opposite left/right side and lengths are different.So I'm going dark and darker, the pink is what the highlight came through for the tips of where the highest edges are and then I'm going to see if the panel liner drops it all a shade. Then I might make glowy-eyes for a creepy look. Just adding some watered down white and/or yellow Then I'm getting started on butt pattern ideas.
>>96591602>Turn the dreadnought into a forgefiend, the size is pretty close and the energy weapon can easily count for extoplasma cannons. For the turret, maybe try to figure out spider legs and turn the the turret into a venomcrawler.thats far to much of a stretch
>>96591370There is a fire warrior video game, as you may know.And raven guard lost their chapter master to the Tau. The guys thinking space marines are unstoppable read to much space marine BL novels
>>96591611yea but its okay i have a friend to play with that runs 2k dark angels>>96591612?? do you not see the guilliman, calgar and company heroes assembled in the pic? there is even a couple of painted units front and center ? but here is a pic of recently painted victrix honor guard
>>96591630thin your paints nigger
>>96591582But this just came out
The Tau don't need navigators to travel in the Warp. Is this a plothole, or was humanity scammed by the Navigator houses?
If the tyranids got the emperors dna somehow would they be as strong as he was?
>>96591639That's because their "Empire" is tiny.Its like saying Monaco doesnt need a railway system, unlike the idiots in Russia.
>>96591639It was retconned out and now I believe it’s back in 10th, but it opened a rift in the Tau empire and Daemons killed 3/4 of the fleet. The rift is their only way out of the containment box they are in, with a never ending inferno on one side, Nids and Necrons pushing the other borders. Orks, Hrud and DG are also giving them grief right now.
>>96591660Also the slipstream was never FTL, better than what they had but still slow. They can’t use it again because the Ethereals blamed Auxiliaries for the rift and killed a ton of them.
>>96591639>Premium warp travel is navigators guided by the Astronomicon, allowing the the fastest and furtherest movement through the warp. This is the edge that makes the Imperium the most powerful faction in 40k, they can travel the galaxy the fastest and furtherst>Deluxe warp travel, is just a navigator without the astonomicon>Basic warp travel, no navigator or astronomicon. Lots of short little jumps that takes forever
>>96591660>>96591662You guys are most confused and straight-up making stuff up.This is the fluff now. It's from the same page as the fourth sphere disaster. What caused the disaster was the activation of hundreds of their Warp Drives at the same time and place.The slipstream Drives are described as FTL and possessing speed faster than than the Votann Warp Drives.>>96591656It's a multi-system empire. Dozens of systems. Traveling through all of that in a few days is impressive.
>>96591662>They can’t use it again because the Ethereals blamed Auxiliaries for the rift and killed a ton of them.....none of that is accurate?The Ethereals didn't blame the auxillaries, it was the 4th sphere soldiers themselves, and they are planning to use it again after making some adjustments to it. And it was definitely FTL, it made a fuckin' wormhole to like a whole other area in the galaxy.
>>96591668>Ultra Diamond Deluxe Premium is Necrons just teleport everywhereSuper Diamond Deluxe Premium is that everywhere in the galaxy is just a 5 minute walk away from the nearest webway exit.
>>96591676FYI, the Necron ship drives are stated in the codex to be slightly slower than the Imperial Warp Drives.
>>96591625>And raven guard lost their chapter master to the Tau.9 times out of 10 whenever that is brought up, it's always done to mock the Tau."Hah, the stupid naive Tau thought they killed the king of all space marines, but they only killed a Chapter Master! Those are a dime a dozen, idiot Tau are so weak and pathetic!"
>>96591679Most necron codexes have said something different about their FTL capabilities. Whatever it says now, GW will have probably changed their mind again by next edition.
>>96591676>Sorry buddy, gates closed. Best I can do is 200 light years away.
>>96591682Why take the opinions of morons seriously? That was the propaganda of the Water Caste.Even so, the slaying of the first founding chapter master and the near wiping out of his chapter is a massive blow to the Imperial morale. So much in fact that the High Lords authorised nuking the whole Damocles Gulf in revenge.
>>96591634It's actually crazy how slow codex roll outs are over the edition. What even is the point James
Hot Take: The Iron Hands are pretty cool and awesome and I don't understand all the hate they get.>"Oh but they're so cold-hearted and cruel!Bitch this is the Imperium, even the Salamanders are genocidal child-murderers.
>>96591438combat patrol: $145codex: free from wahaIyanden paints: maybe $50clippers: $8superglue: $5hobby knife: $8I would recommend getting a single model to start with though to see if you enjoy the hobby, just an autarch (or whatever character you like), the clippers, hobby knife and super glue to start.
>telling him to get superglue
>>96591689No one likes them because they’re losers, just like raven guard and there’s much cooler black painted armies to choose from
>>96591697I mean, you could use elmer's but it's probably not much cheaper
>>96591693nigga buy a $9 gundam kit off of amazon instead of buying overpriced clippers and knives seperately.
>>96591709oh, I didn't even know they sold those been ages since I've looked for kits like that
If Malcador is a perpetual, then where is he now?
>>96591693He needs plastic cement not superglue
>>96591603Nice anon
>>96591727Perps can be killed perma if their souls are destroyed.His was burned to nothingness
>>96591728Superglue is much easier to use, plastic cement (depending on how thin) can easily go out of control and smells like shit.
>>96591733Just buy tamiya cement with the brush then.Post your plastic models glued together with superglue
I have an iron warriors army and looking to start a 2nd armyShould I collect Chaos Knights or Death Wing for an elite army?
>>96591738Do chaos knights. That they can be allied in with your IW gives you some extra variety of things to do with them.
>>96591438>first army>painting yellowSetting yourself for failure.
>>96591737I use gorilla glue, and it works great. I usually get just a little bit on end of a toothpick and apply it with that to what needs to be joined.
>>96591733Tamiya extra thin doesn't even smell that bad and if you just turn a fan on you'll barely notice it
>>96591751Post models
>>96591689my problem is that despite their very unique seeming culture, they are still just space marines. I want crazy hardcore tech bullshit that borders on them becoming hereteks. dudes so augmented they make a 3000~ year old tech priest blush. shit like that. na instead we get..>my helmet has an extra sensor lens>I have a servoskull like every other chapter does>my belt has a cogwheelfucking pussies. go balls to the walls with the tech.
>>96591756alright, here's a recent guyI'm still working out the exact colors to use on him
>>96591689Iron hands are cool, it's just every time they get rules they're usually broken somehow and people then freakout.
>>96591779>That textured primerYou shouldn't be giving anyone hobby advice
>>96591733>Superglue is much easier to useUp until you squirt half a tube onto your model because the aluminium tubes love to crumple in retarded ways.
are flyers basically poop this edition?i kind of wanted to make an ork flying circus army
>>96591793Okay pal, but how's the construction look?the only issue I know is the retarded way GW constructed the pauldron with the bonding studs which I didn't bother gap filling for this test model
>>96591811I use gorilla glue (plastic container) and also apply it to a toothpick first and dab any excess onto a paper towel before applying it to the model
>>96591812aircraft are trash but flyers range from bad to great like most other models
>>96591828You get more strength for less glue with plastic cement as it fuses the plastic rather than just sticking two discrete parts together. Control issues should be mitigated by needing less for it to do its job. It's not so commonly used for nothing.
>>96591812Aircraft are shit, Stormboyz and Deffkoptas are pretty good. Hopefully one day the Chinork Warkopta will return but planes need to be totally redesigned before they can come back.
>>96591828Honestly the only time I use super glue these days with plastic models is if I want to take the piece off at a later date.I usually just super glue my models to their bases so I have the option of snapping them off if I want to do more to their bases.
>>96591850I suppose if you're going to be using it for load bearing parts it makes sense that you need more strength, but it still takes quite a bit of force to remove a superglued part unless you have used an absolutely tiny amount of it (which can be useful for feet for temporary base attachment).
>>96591688because there used to be way less drastic changes between editions that neccessitated new codexes all the time, que in plenty of armies swinging in 5th and 6th with codex all the way back to 3rd or 4th
>>96591831>>96591860but but muh deff skwadron
>>96591867It's not so much that you need more strength, it's that you get the same strength with considerably less glue, so less spillage and runoff. If you were having control issues with plastic glue you were very likely using more than you needed.
>>96591882Planes were turn 1 blasting everyone’s best unit off the table with extreme, unavoidable Dakka and mortal wound bombing runs that could hit an entire army, so now they don’t get to do anything until turn 3. Maybe someday GW will think of a redesign that doesn’t let them bypass the fundamentals of the game. It was almost as unfun as the 1/2 of my army is indirect fire artillery lists that led to indirect being nerfed.
>>96591902wow that sucksso much for that ideathanks anon
just finished up this dreadnought and headed to bed ! night night anons hope your wips go well !!
>>96591961You went very metallic with this one, it looks good thoughIf you do a little cleanup it would look a lot better, theres some overspill on parts but you get better at that with practice
>>96590822This will happenGW blatantly has Chaos Bikers ready anyway and just stored in a fridge as we know from that old leak which was correct about everything.
>>96590883Its unfortunate for GW that people don't like Gravis/Phobos. They can make a lot of variations of those and I think they will anyway.Other than this they will have to go further into subfactions so all first founding chapters will get their own stuff and then they will start to expand minors like Blood Ravens, Crimson Fists etc
Alrighty, guess I funneled myself into the Red Widow (black widows most venomous cousin).The original spider I intended to make these guys. I was dumb for deviating.Eyes, base(bushes to hide the pins) and maybe a highlight stage and topcoat and it's a done spider.
>>96591961Thin your paints
>>96591989>>96590883Nah, they'll just go back to coming up with stupid new units. Chapters like Iron hands, Raven Guard and Crimson Fists don't have enough of a player base to justify more than token characters/upgrade sprues, and the point of marine releases is to appeal to the huge playerbase.
>>96590796Some ogryns.Does anyone actually use shotgun ogryns? How do they perform?Debating if I wanna run 3 in a transport or 6 on foot.
>>96591961It almost looks like there are directions in your streaks and it doesnt seem thinned out enough, are you using a wet palette? Do you shake the paints well enough before use? Do you paint in one direction? Clean up the overspilled parts, do a wash, try highlighting cause these are just basic layers which is a good start but cant be called finished
>>96591970I thought that dreadnoughts and vehicles could have paint fixes and such.Offcolour on colourful and whatever field color that is close enough to grey, brown, green etc a tank is.Could give a chance to make interesting always evolving miniature.Until it deformes into chaos and the real fun begins.
>>96592019I would love for Iron Hands to get a cybernetic sprue so people could feel an easy "in" on doing a "Ad-Mech-Marines" chapter/diversion/iron hands.
little osl and slightly rusted metal practice on this helmetshout-out to this practice dummy, poor lad has been painted and stripped too much but he has to hold the line
>>96591503Yes. They've been mentioned in several places.
>>96591773Nothing stopping you from doing it yourself.Kitbash something out of the kataphron kit and run it as a gravis marine for example.
>>96592018>>96592023>>96591970dropped it in the degreaser jar and marked as a failure ;-;
>>96592055I didn't think it was a failure but that's okay
There is nothing that looks more out-of-place in 40k than a handsome or pretty character.
>>96592055Keep on grinding you will get there, but you really need to first learn to thin your paints and consider the stroke directions of your brush, tackle more smaller minis before you try to tackle big projects like that
>>96592055You can start stripping and repainting your models when you've gained some experience. Just paint stuff for now. You'll learn, don't worry. We were all noobs once.
>>96592070Nobles have rejuvenats and stuff like that, it's not super odd for them to look good
>>96592082But they typically look like pic related.
>>96592075yucky slop

>>96591514>and they still live on inside Slaanesh growing stronger again as the Craftworlds give them renewed Faith.Eldar cannot even power-up a single deity. Their pantheon is dead as Horus

>>96590836>Any anons got strong opinions about Craftworlds?Pick between Ulthwe, Altansar and Iyanden
>>96591634Read the post again. What does the first sentence say
>>96591825Don't use superglue on plastic models
>>96591688Because they want a steady stream of sales and not to blow their loud in 3 months and let their entire game as a live service model die out and lose their entire business? Because and endless cycle of new reveals and hype and new rules keep people interested in the game, trying new things and buying new models?Tell me how one big release every few years worked out for netrunner. Don't get me wrong, would it be better for the consumer? Yes. Is good for the business or growth of the community? No.
>>96592195I use a little bit of superglue with my plastic cement so I dont have to hold it in place for as long and it still does the plastic cement bond.
>>96590767>10 factions >look inside>5 flavours of space marineLmao
Can we even count agents as a new army? It’s just a bunch of pre existing stuff with an expensive book tied to it
>>96591299Historylet
>>96592245Not really. It was technically playable as an army in 9th too because of how keywords worked. It just didn't have any army rules (just like this edition)
>>96590796Started on inquisitor Draxus. She'll be the second model I paint without using washes
>>96592245GW still don't sell a generic Inquisitor modelYou can buy an Inquisitorial retinue but NOT AN INQUISITOR TO LEAD THEM what a joke
>>96592262Just buy any GW model and convert/kitbash it into an inquitor. It's honestly not that hard.
>>96592262They sell 4 named ones though, which you can easily kitbash
>>96592212>190, 140 if you count in the codex>for the box of farts with a venomhoooolyyyy
>>96592284Be a good piggy and may be you will get another pity release in the next edition, amidst new space marines releases.
>>96592284The Drukhari Realspace Raid box does not come with a codex, FYI
>>96592302Say that again without crying xenocel
>>96592308good thing the entire important part leaked then
>Bile discovered one of his clones of Fulgrim managed to survive underneath the rubble of Harmony. Under Bile's care the clone rapidly matured and was "pure", retaining none of Fulgrim's corruption. However when Bile believed that the clone still retained all of Fulgrim's arrogance and was doomed to go down the same path as the original, he traded him to Trazyn the Infinite in exchange for a lost Emperor's Children Gene-Seed stock.[39]Why is nu40k sloppa so badI think it's because not only are there too many fans who are too stupid to actually get the vibe of the setting (one look at any 40k meme page on facebook will show you this), but the writers now, both in-studio and BL, are mostly midwit fanboys too.It's shite.
>>96592323Reddit spacing and you’re giving off a an indication that you’re British. Kindly, and I say this with respect, consider never sharing your opinion again on this Mongolian basket weaving website.
>>96592334It's a British game you dense cunt. Go back to banging rocks.
The book was pretty good actuallyWhat are you reading rn anons?
>>96592336>It's a British gameAnd i recoil in terror when I am reminded of this fact. its why guard is my most hated army outside of the based catachans. Frankly the ip would be better off if it was handed off to the spanish.

>that feel when sick Should I paint or stay in bed and sleep bros?
>>96592382>>96592391Anime website, dipshits. Also a lot of manga is unironically a better read than BL sloppa lmao
>>96592401Sleep honestly, paint when you are better or you will burn yourself out
>>96592401Being off sick is like a free pass to do warhammer provided you feel up to it’s worth it.
>>96592403Alright! Thanks anon.
>>96592402What's the last manga you read anon?
>>96592402>Also a lot of manga is unironically a better read than BL sloppa lmaoI don’t doubt that. But the real question is what mangakas are best suited for writing and illustrating a 40k manga?
>>96592410Depends on what sort of story you want to tell
>>96592410Shindol, Nanashi, Raita, and Akihito Tsukushi.
>>96592394i started the classics with anabasis and the translation i was reading was from the 1860s so there was a tonne of outdated language which it turned me off from reading it for a while. eventually i found a more modern translation and it quickly became one of my all-time favourite works of literature anyways, warhammer 40,000
>>96592402Putting sloppa in the same sentences of things you dislike don't make you right btw, and while you say that one of the most successful mangas in mainstream media right now is Chainsawman and if you want to act like that dog water writing is better than BL books then you need to tone down the hotboxing you do with all the cum sweat and piss you keep in one room because it's effects seem to be disastrous to your brain (what's left of it anyway)
>>96592422Chiainsawman IS in fact better than the best sloppa that BL has ever put out. ADB should honestly take notes.
>>96590796Working through these and realising I should just split them into two batches
Brandfast Oathband, Secure Positions strategem - am I still limited to only disembarking if my transport has not advanced or do I get to pop out my dudes?
I’m going to do a more grimdark paint scheme for Death Guard. Does anyone have any tips for plasma weapons? I don’t want a heavily glowing effect, but just having a turned-off plasma gun feels weird/lazy too
>>96592426Ah, so you're just a tasteless weebshitter like most of your kindThanks for being honest at least

>>96592414I’d say inquisitorial mystery story to play it safe.>>96592416With that tidbit are the choice mangakas still the same?
>>96592418>anabasisNice. I was more into roman texts. My favorite was de agri cultura by Cato the elder. Not as exciting maybe but I really liked reading about what life was like.I wonder if the the Imperium still has works from ancient greece and rome or if that stuff was forgotten like so much else.
You dont think someone like Iskandar Khayon is kino bwo?

>>96592470I feel like there are a handful BL books that are pretty ok
Western writers in general are just cucked, nevermind getting into BL.

I find it contradictory how there are realms of the warp, its supposed to be the immaterium but somehow gods got materials in?

>>96592538I think these problems aren’t exclusive to black library too. Whatever problem they are or problems.
>>96592262Oh my god imagine kitbashing your own inquisitor from any of the amazing Necromunda or imperial bits that exist or even great 3rd party kits too. wow, imagine actually having to happy instead of slapchopping something built exactly how the manual showed you. WOW.kys hobbylet.

>>96590748>TQOrks, going with mainly Bad Moon as I like their color schemes and fluff (+I like Uftakh novel quite a bit, still have to paint him though but I want to get a little better before attempting it). Most unit are thus in bad moon colors, with some golden parts here and there because it's snazzy, but I also put quite a bit of units like Stormboyz, Kommandoz, boss Snikrot in Blood Axes, as even a big Waaagh need some kunnin' gitz

>>96592557Holy Kino, I kneel.
>>96592549Sometimes I forget all people dont have buckets of bits from kits and lots amassed over the years. Sad.

>>96592613>Khethos Vorsch earned his mantle on the night he stepped through a hand mirror of rippled glass and emerged—a heartbeat later—inside the sealed reliquary vault of Heliosa Secundus, twenty kilometres beneath bedrock. Since that impossible intrusion, the Exalted Sorcerer has treated reality’s seams as invitations. He mapped ley lines across dead moons, unpicked wraithbone gates woven by long fallen Aeldari masons, and once persuaded a planetary governor to surrender merely by letting the man watch every bolt on his fortress doors drift open in perfect synchrony. Yet Vorsch insists these feats are rehearsals: “True power,” he murmurs, “is not walking through walls, but deciding where walls ought to stand.” >As a powerful Exalted Sorcerer of the Thousand Sons, Magister Vorsch wields great empyric power. He specialises in binding magicks, both to entrap supernatural entities and also the entanglement of one place to another. Styling himself as a puppet master of realities and an esoteric scholar of the liminal and hidden, he delights in imposing his twisted will upon all around him and moving without barriers wherever he chooses. After all, no locked door can deny one who can simply open a portal to bypass it, and no being can refuse the commands of he who can shackle its will with sorcery. >With his interests turning ever further toward exploring forbidden places and opening unseen paths, it was perhaps inevitable he would draw the attention of the exile, Ahriman. Forever consumed with his quest to gain access to the Black Library and the forbidden knowledge within, Ahriman has carefully cultivated Vorsch as an eager apprentice, bound by sorcerous fealty and a shared fervor for discovering the unknown. 1k sons are the least evil faction. The codex is filled with "Spellatrix" is a Demon Prince of unfettered power. He fields legions of demons and arcane automatons. He spends time in his library exploring the wonders of magic
>>96592613>Fight for MordianOh no. I dont normally care for Imperial worlds but I hope he will be alright
>>96592635Well, they originally were pretty good dudes. Prospero was literally one of the most amazing planets in the Imeprium. It was basically a university planet with perfect communism led by psychics who looked at the future to make sure things ran good. Regular humans had a pretty good existence by galactic standards. It had a huge arts scene as well.
>>96592644>no knowledge was forbidden on ProsperoYou just KNOW the smut on that planet was insane
>>96592644they also had demons for pets due to dabbling in sorcery instead of just developing psychic talents. Which then slowly escalated to Nikea where they made their already bad case worse
>>96592653Literally all it took was for the Emperor to tell Magnus what demons were so he could teach his psykers how to identify them and safeguard themselves from them. We know for a fact this is the case because way less capable and mentally adjusted psykers in 40k know how to ward off demons. The Adeptus Telepathica literally has developed any number of ways to safeguard the mind against demons, and we even have marine chapters that know enough about demons they possess themselves with them just to learn how to fight them off and kill them better.If the Gray Knights exist, why didnt the Emperor just make the tsons into gray knights? The answer is he was an autistic retard who was better at amassing power than actually employing it.
>>96592631As in he will be humiliated or he will humiliate?
>>96592661Emperor was a retard.
>>96592661supposedly the offer was up to give up the rest of Tsons to lead greys but its a full on schizo segment of the crusade so i doubt without actually reading those chapters to get a refresher>>96592668yes
>>96592673ADB retconned that in his book by saying it was all a halucination when Magnus was talking to Vulkan. The Emperor literally possesses Vulkan and says to Magnus hes a giant pissbaby whos getting everything he deserves and he would never forgive him because he was aiding chaos (even though he didnt really aid chaos at all and kind of just wandered around depressed and upset the civil war happened at all and the Emperor basically is blaming magnus for HIM being tricked by Horus and sending a massive punitive fleet to Prospero). ADB 100% butchered magnus character he had no fucking clue what made him cool but I guess it managed to successfully connect the thread to 40k magnus who is indeed a giant pissbaby.
>>96592681one more reason to hate ADBverse, especially HH continuity
>>96592613>He outflanked an entire Aeldari war host by calculating their assault vectors three epochs in advance, engraving the prediction on his Damn, kinda wish we had more on him instead of Trazyn.
>>96592686>Order of the breathless
>>96592691I think Siege of Terra generally just brought the absolute worst out of everyone involved. I like Abnett, I think hes a talented writer whos written some great stuff. End and the Death was ass.
>>96591076Almost finished with sculpting. Gonna let the greenstuff cure.
>>96592712Very nice work anon! I want this to turn out nicely when finished painting. You ever heard of marine juice?Dark tone, lahmian medium and reikland fleshshade all dumped into a single bottle that can hold it all and shaken.There’s also mixing speedpaint 2.0 medium with your choice of armypainter wash. Does wonders in making the wash flow even more.
>>96592613No fucking way I'm reading all this pseudo-narrative advertisement teaser slop. Either give us the full reveal or fuck off James.
>>96592735I already use Vallejo black paint mixed with their "contrast" medium for the armor, but thanks for the pointers.
>>96592613>Proper interesting Imperium vs Chaos plot set up>Xenos shitters randomly tossed inSo close to being good.
>>96592743No problem anon! I wish you all the best as I love lotd!
>>96592745>imperium vs chaosYAWN

>>96592759They look weird
>>96592759FART SMELLDAR GETTING FUCKED IN THEIR RELEASE WEEK
>>96592759Welp, didn't expect that this week.
>>96592759>ancient in termie armorFuck yeah, another one for the spreadsheet. Good reveals.
>>96592759Nice, I was just about to get the regular ones for my BA army and now I’m just gonna wait for the real melee ones to drop.
>>96592759Well they look...terminators.
>>96592759
>>96592759>new Calgar>new Cato>new Victrix>new terminator ancient>new assault terminators>potentially new RowboatAnd this is all with less than a year to go until the 10e launch box rolls out at least another half dozen kits for space marines. Crikey.
>>96592759This is dope. Assault termies are all I need.
Deldar releasefag is in SHAMBLES
>>96592549Nigga, if you've been into 40k for years and have an army you definetly have a bits box full of shit to use and to make your own inquisitor.Only thing you really need to buy is like 1 kit that you use as a base for your conversion/kitbash.
>>96592759YEAR OF CHAOS!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>96592759What do anons think of the chin strap style helmet thing they have now? I think its interesting and looks a little less silly than just being bareheaded although it does kinda look like they're all nursing broken jaws
>>96592765Nuh uh because this is their pre-prerelease week so they're not getting fucked in their release week stupid doodoo head
>>96592759Breddy gud box, love the new termies.
>>96592759Marine Chads keep winning.
>>96592759Man they look too glorious to hit on 4+.
>>96592796>inb4 £300
>Terminators with Melee WeaponAt least you loyalist labdogs still have terminators with hammers and claws. Our chaos version's melee option is a fancy-named power sword.
>2 new deldar models >9001 new marine models Why do xenofags even try?
>>96592806Loyalty is its own reward.
>>96592759Shit, I already have 10 ETB Termies. I will buy it anyway, everything in this box fits my current project perfectly. With all those HH upscaled Marines I can finally finish my 1st Company Firstborn army.
>>96592807umm akshually archon has like 5 or 6 configurations so they should count as separate models
>>96592811>Favoritism is its own reward
>>96592806Sorry for your lost bro.
>>96592832Marines
>>96592817It is.
>>96592818Thanks bro. It's not like the fucking kit doesn't have the weapon option, it's just that some dumbass in the rules team saw the options on the Chosen and Terminators' sprues and decided they didn't count.
>>96592832Imperial Guard
>>96592759>more loyalist marinesCan we PLEASE build out the other fucking factions GW. Aos is shit but it’s not stormcast 24/7
>>96592802lmao no way
>>96592832damn, giant feet. what is that, size 14?
>>96592759>waiter, waiter, more playmobil slop please! we imperium piggies are hungie!!
>>96592855The other factions only exist to be NPCs for Marines. Learn your place.
>>96592759So souless, the old ones looked way better
>>96592759these look lame
>>96592862>marinefags really need a whole new kit just to change their weapons
>>96592855>Aos is shit but it’s not stormcast 24/7Want to take a guess why?
>all this seethe over marinesYup, 40k is healing.
>>96592879Stormcast flopping was the best thing to happen to AOS
So is GW eventually going to run of new space marine kits? Like I don't see why these units would ever be replaced. I guess new and remade characters wil always be a thing Like what new kits can they even remake anymore, Grey Knight refresh but then what? Some new Salamander chapter units, a ravenguard unique unit?
>>96592759They could have made this an upgrade to the basic terminator wargear. Instead we have to have 2 separate units for the same dudes but with different weapons because someone at GW really fucking wants power levels to be a thing
>>96592880Calgar upstaging the Shit Eldar on their own release was good but this is even better. The new termies are already more popular than any xenos release thise edition.
>>96592880>mortarionchaosfag pretending to be part of the equal attention club
>>96592888They will and then they'll start inventing new units. like a terminator apothecary or Librarian in gravis
As other anons said this could have been an upgrade sprue. I’m not particularly whelmed by this release. The only terminators I’m looking forward to are the HH ones which are hopefully getting updated.
>>96592888They'll release primaris primaris marines to fool their customers into buying the same armies for the third time.
>>96592759>Marines get a bigger release than Dark Eldar 2 weeks in a row
>>96592913they will be but the loadouts are gonna suck. FW hates powerfist and stormbolter.
new>>96592918>>96592918>>96592918
>>96592920> On page 7fuck off
>>96592917
>>96592920we are not at image limit or page 8 retard
>>96592917That's...pretty normal tho. No faction will ever upstage marines in term of release.
>>96592862>reeeeeeeeee they should have released the aeldari hepatitis aspect warriors or the fart smelldar beastmaster razorbirds instead reeeeeeeeeeeee
>>96592888Remember, they can ALWAYS, make a new space marine kit and people will buy it. Make "tactical intercessors" literally just intercessors with an extra sprue for Sergeant weapons and 1 in 5 special weapons. Marine players will buy up to replace their old intercessors. You know what? Screenshot this for posterity.
>>96592950Most factions only get one release and edition. We’re in what? Vanilla Marine Wave 3 now for 10th?
>>96592961I suppose you missed the leak they are redoing tactical marines in primaris for late 2026 and feel really clever.
>>96592961Damn passionate fans the bane of any game. Those marine players should be more like you eldar fans, complaining about minor details in a model's boots or masks and refusing to buy the new eldar release because of it.
>>96592960correct
>>96592970Not to mention the blood angels, dark angels, and space wolves all got refresh waves as big as votann wave 2.
>>96592970if you count a pity hero as a release
>>96592759Please tell me everyone hates this set because it's basically my dream army box I fucking love terminators.
>>96592988I think the reception has been positive, ignore the one or two contrarian curmudgeons here.
>>96592999You just know this shit is going to sell out 0.1 seconds after release on pre order day on everything but the GW website, and they'll want like $500 AUD for it.
The funniest part about this is that it won't backfire. In facy it'll be a colossal success, more than any Xenos or Chaos release this edition.
>>96593006I don't give a fuck what the Australians are paying for their 40k
>>96592960This but unironically
>>96593018as a chaosfag that enjoyed daemon allies, i've come to realize i'm just not the audience for 40k. and now i haven't bought a kit in ages because nothing worth a shit has come for my faction
So Drukhari codex launch week has 2 new Dark Eldar models but 4 new Space Marine models?
>>965930802 New unit kits (Assault Termies and Vicatrix Guard) and 3 characters (Cato, Calgar, Termie Ancient )
>>96593006>Australian prices
>>96592759neat, I was considering building a space marine army next
>>96592759I'm mostly surprised at how many bare heads it comes with
>>96590875Eldarmdulillah!
>>96592698Kek
>>96592661You're approaching it from the understanding that if you just put up a sign that "there's dangerous chemicals here, don't touch," that it'd keep the people safe. But Daemons don't work like that. Mere knowledge about them is dangerous. Writing your theories about them will cause the pages to corrupt. Now imagine those pages are your brain. And you're assuming Magnus would understand and follow his dad's advice this time.>>96592671I blame BL retcons.
Back to work on my immolator... More gold trim yay!!! (White spot cleanup first)
>>96593249Please paint it all this timeAlso sculpt some ears onto the saints
>>96593238>You're approaching it from the understanding that if you just put up a sign that "there's dangerous chemicals here, don't touch," that it'd keep the people safe.

And you're assuming Magnus would understand and follow his dad's advice this time. Yes, that's why the Imperium famously knows nothing about demons and hides knowledge of demons from Astropaths and Primaris class Psykers and Space Marine Librarians and didnt perfect a bunch of technology that aids psykers in rejecting demonic influence and soulbonding. That's why the Imperium famously doesn't have multiple secret orders that actively collect knowledge in demons. That's why fan fiction like the Gray Knights and Exorcists will never be official lore. That's why Inquisitors famously know nothing about demons, not their true names, the nature of demon worlds or how to exterminate a chaos cult and prevent it from summoning demons. Great point anon! You clearly know your stuff!
>>96592759S E X
>>96593270Baby steps anon.Also I kinda want the saints (and statues thereof) to explicitly not be cats, because racism is good, and even though these kitties ARE the goodest girls (yes they are, yes they are!) they know they're abhuman scum and the saints were 'proper' humans.
>>96592613Fanfiction
>>96592807Deldar lost more than they gained
Uhhhh? Non imperium sisters? Our response???
>>96593848DEbros, it was suppose to be our time
