>>96617907faggot vandalized the OP againreal link here:https://docs.google.com/document/d/15jNMk0oCTOWQkXxVetQqP-_mrNLjzggRR9wnmwkPMkM/edit?tab=t.0
>>96617907Why would I want a fully painted army just given to me. The hobby is building and painting and every other part of the hobby exists to make building and pai ting more fun and fulfilling
>>96617926>>96617907>https://docs.google.com/document/d/15jNMk0oCTOWQkxXVetQqP-_mrNLjzggRR9wnmwkPMkM/edit?usp=drivesdk>edit?usp=drivesdkSo what is he trying to do with this link? Is he logging emails that try and access it? Because if you just wanted a dead link you'd remove a character or something
>>96617927relateable, its like when people get entire armies painted for them by comission. like why, half the fun is the trial and error of painting.i can understand maybe getting a centerpiece or specific HQ done by a skilled artist but even then.
I simply couldn't own somebody else's painted miniatures. Nor give away something I've painted.
>>96617927this is the only correct take
$100 for these, the steel and camo chimeras are both nicely painted and built. The black one needs the turret affixing, and the wyvern you can see has a snapped gun. Good deal? It'll go with the 80 old guardsmen I got for $120 the other day
>>96617936he's just upset that the thread's trying to hold community events, that drives /v/ermin like him crazy
>>96617946>i can understand maybe getting a centerpiece or specific HQ done by a skilled artistI can't. Why would I want one miniature in my army to look better than everything else I painted myself, so when people say wow that guy sure is cool, you have to say yeah that's the only one I didn't do. It just makes your stuff look worse. Unless you have 2-4 children, buying commissions is fag shit unless it's porn, then it's based
>>96617907>TQ6 Shotgun tau in transports and the big plastic robot firing platform + idk what else because I don't know the points
>>96617956No I can see that, but why wouldn't he just delete a letter. What is that link doing that a normal broken link doesn't do for him. Like why go through more effort of typing when he could just remove a letter and be done with it, and have it be more hidden. It's fishy af
>>96617979he's not intelligent, people this hellbent on shitting on some dead website's miniature general aren't capable of higher thinking
Do you think there are some Wych Cults who engage in something like a Dark Eldar equivalent of pro wrestling? I'm talking about this in terms of in-ring personas and storylines, not the violence being staged.
>>96617965when you put it like that your right, i paint all my stuff so i have no frame of reference for people who get comission work done.
>>96617907>same op spammed two days ago>exact same worthless tq>exact same vandalized secret santa I'd imagine if you look at the threads spammed on the 23rd that got pruned that we will see those images and tqs posted as OPs in the following days. Going to be pretty safe to assume that every OP with an image from those pruned threads will be vandalized too
Let chaos idols take this thread
>>96617954those look pretty good! i dont play guard so i have no idea if you got a good deal or not.if its anything like space marines, getting 4 vehicles for $100 is a good deal.> MFW iron hands player trying to buy a repulsor
>>96617936>>96617926>>96617956>>96617979>>96617984That anon is right. It's an edit link, so he can see every person who connects to it to edit it, but it's a corrupt file so it doesn't load. People need to be careful going forward. Obviously don't sign into your actual Google account when clicking on drive links
>>96618017This is why I talk to you cunts on an incognito tab so I'm not signed into anythingYes, I know that daddy Google still collects my information
>>96618006It looks like they're about the same price.There's no treads on 3, but the person who sold them to me says they're happy to print some treads if I find an STL for them.
>>96618017I think secret santa is dead. Nobody wants to deal with this.
>>96617907Hey guys, hope you're all doing well. It's time for the september collage anchor posts. I'll try to post one each thread until the deadline. As always I'll check the archive too but submitting your models in reply to these posts is the best way to not be missed. If you submit the models to one of my anchor posts there is no need to repost the submissions, I see them, I promise.Here is the vote for next month's theme.https://strawpoll.com/BDyNzobWkyRVery freeform theme this month, excited to see what you've cooked up.
>>96618050>secret santa is dead You keep saying this clearly hoping to influence the threads opinion
>>96617954You need a set of tracks for the basilisk too
We frigpostan, we frenspostan>high resolution image belowhttps://files.catbox.moe/7goib4.png
>>96617949Is that because you have no models painted by yourself or someone else
>>96618074??? I said it once.
>>96618127Every time the secret santa is brought up some doomposting faggot complains that nobody should bother and that it's all pointless. If you aren't him then you aren't any better.
>>96618017Genuinely don’t know why this was attempted. This was such an easy thing to see coming and frankly this is one of the least malicious thing that could have been done.
>>96617907If you think about it it sends kind of a weird message for these guys to dress up as if they're bleeding. Blood isn't supposed to drip from healthy people.
>>96617926>>96618017Okay so given this is clearly an attempt to dox folks, is there anything the jannies can do? Or are we just allowed to post phishing links for fun now?
Question for you lads.Say you got two websites for warhammer right? And a box of units you wanna get available at each one. Base price, 55 bucks.>Buying from website A will cost you 46 on the box(15% off) + 12 on shipping for a combined 58. In addition, the box will take about 3-5 days to arrive.>Buying from website B will cost you 55 on the box + only 8 on shipping, and the box will literally arrive the next day. Which shop are you buying from?
>>96618170Website A.I already have a backlog of kits to work on, I can work on something else while I wait.
>>96618170The cheaper because I'm not an ADHD riddled man who makes impulse purchases for next day dopamine release
>>96618157Idk. Theres not a good report option. MODS what do we do?
>>96618183They can't talk to us like that. It's against the rules to claim you're 4chan staff
>>96618188It's against the rules to impersonate 4chan staff. Actual mods have made themselves known (as "anonymous mod") on occasion, though it's damn rare nowadays.
>>96618090i missed you fridgeking
For people who regularly play 500 point/combat patrol games, do you think those games are improved by alternating activations or not?With the goal of preventing snowballing in mind
>>96618157It's a link to a non-existing document so as of now it's safe
>>9661821840k does not work with alternating activations in general. You need considerable house rules to get there.Are you playing alternating within phases or each unit activation works through all phases?
>>96618218I see people talk about alternating activation but no one talks about GW's apocalypse rule set that applied damage at the end of the round
wait a minute..... have any full primaris'd chapters fallen to chaos? does that mean that there exists, in lore, primaris chaos space marines?
whoa this carrying display case is cool when it lights up
>>96618233Those apocalypse rules were cool with AA, but then it had all damage be taken at the end of the turn which kinda made it redundant.
>>96618205I imagine it's because jannies are doing most of the heavy lifting for the mods. I don't even know what the mods do these days aside from approve bans from the jannies, which seems like an unnecessary step but I guess the jannies are free so they might as well use them to take the load off the mods
>>96618210<3
>>96618238Yeah, canonically a bunch of space marines fell to Khorne instantly from the beacon Angron corrupted during the Arks of Omen events. An entire branch of the Indomitus crusade got mind broken. So lots of Primaris serve Khorne now.
>>96618004This image should be a bannable offense.
are raptors themselves getting new models anytime soon? i know the NLs are getting their own , or is that just gonna be the raptor models now. i want to put raptors in my army but im wondering when they are getting new models
>>96618300those aren't NL specific raptors in that KT, they're generic
>>96618218it would be pretty neat if they made combat patrol rules with alternate activation in mind, but it would take a lot of care if you were just tac it onto the existing rules.In terms of alternate activation rule sets that i like, i like how SW legion does it with their order cards/tokens and the random choice in activation, althoiugh they did have to do a lot to try and balance out activation spam.
>>96618300I also want to add 10 raptors but I don't want the old models and I especially don't want to add 4 specials to it only for new rules to come out that limits that but also adds the decapitator chainsaw or whatever
>>96618300they don't actually have any NL stuff on them. that's unfortunate also coming in sets of 6 is pretty odd
>>96618342set of 5. Thats a chaos lord in your face
>>96618342>sets of 6 is pretty oddnah its a 5man, the bottom middle guy is a chaos lord.
>>96618342its 5 + lord no?
>>96618352>>96618353>>96618355You can gell because he has danger fingies
>>96618357I can tell because hes the only model that doesnt look like shit
>>96618342Top mid guy has a tongue that makes me uncomfortable
>>96618090Are we allowed to be on the fridge twice? If so here's my submission

What modern pop sci-fi works do you think 40k would be influenced by if it had been created in the current day and age?
>>96618368Great now that song is stuck in my head thanks anon.
>>96618378Not a bad song to have stuck in your headCause I'm a punk rocker, yes I am
>>96618362why? because he looks like a soijak?
Recommend me a alternative model for my primaris chaplain, I hate their dumb bone chest plate thing and I'm sick of looking at it
>>96618090Already have my NL on the fridge but is it ok if I ask to have this guy added as well?
>>96618378because i'm a wall builder yes i am
>>96618366>>96618391I'm pretty sure fridgeanon said it's 1 submission per poster
>>96618391I think he said one per person but you can swap your pic out if you'd want
>>96618390Ballgag Chaplain
>he fell for the army painter meme
>>96618377Are there any new sci-fi works to speak of? AFAIK every popular sci-fi media is just regurgitated stuff from the past.
>>96618392Cause I'm a warp user yes I am
>>96618390wolfpriestexecrator
>>96618377I think The Clone Wars would have been influential on them. The Clone Wars cartoon is old enough that people who are game-designer aged would have grown up on it. Starcraft would have probably made some of the models more round and stylish. Cyberpunk would be a bigger deal for civilian lore, perhaps 40k would have more powerful guilds and other corporate-like structures. Starship Troopers (1997) would have set some of the tone of the Imperium's rhetoric and propaganda. These are assumptions, obviously. The way I see it, 40k was created by sci-fi nerds in the 80's and 90's who had things like Star Trek, Dune, and dark fantasy to take inspiration from. I'm just thinking of what the equivalent would be for a modern late-20's sci-fi nerd.
>96618404You're really desperate for attention today huh
>>96618404>inb4 ap apologists try to discredit this
>>96618377all the biggest properties are the same. Star Wars, Dune. the setting is already dark forest-y, and that's one of the biggest new age sci-fi media
>>96618390Find a recaster and get the old collectors edition chappy
>something spooky almost assuredly gonna win at this pointI have no ideas what I could even do with my existing backlogmaybe flayed ones?
>>96618413Nope, you were in after. Get rekt
>>96618377some retarded shit like three body problem probably
>>96618413Nothing to discredit, the rough cleanup has less paint removed than the light cleanup, the image is obviously faked
>>96618409>Starcraft would have probably made some of the models more round and stylish.you mean the clearly-scrapped IP tie-in? the game that was absolutely gonna be a 40k game?
>>96618352oh that makes sense
>>96618395Gotcha thanks in that case I'll leave it as is
>>96618429That's not entirely true. Warcraft was intentionally going to be a Warhammer game, and Starcraft was an attempt at a Warcraft-in-space, but there were other factors in Warcraft's creation that made it almost inevitable, and if Warcraft existed Starcraft would also have to exist.
>>96618409>I think The Clone Wars would have been influential on them. The Clone Wars cartoon is old enough that people who are game-designer aged would have grown up on it.how is that meaningfully different from the existing star wars influence>Starcraft would have probably made some of the models more round and stylish.see >>96618429>Cyberpunk would be a bigger deal for civilian lore, perhaps 40k would have more powerful guilds and other corporate-like structures.reread Dune>Starship Troopers (1997) would have set some of the tone of the Imperium's rhetoric and propaganda.book came out in '59, clearly already an inspo
>>96618429>>96618442it wasn't, that's a common rumorwarcraft 1 began as one of two games to get away from them making licensed games as silicon&synapse, and in its earliest prototype stages used photos of the guys' warhammer fantasy models as sprites, they never approached GW/got approached by GW about making a licensed gamethen after warcraft exploded in popularity they made their 40k ripoff in starcraft too
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96618419>find a recasterFind a recaster? Just find a recaster? Why don't I just strap on my recaster helmet and squeeze down into a recaster cannon and fire off into recaster land where recasters grow on recasties!
>>96618404I use ak paints and ap washes and the washes get diluted with speedpaint medium. What specifically should I switch to now if I am going to phase out the washes?
>>96618442>>96618444so at minimum there's an influence
>>96618449don't phase out their washes, that guy's just parroting anti-shill shit that doesn't actually exist
>>96618450yes warcraft and starcraft are clearly derivative to the point of theft of warhammer/40k
Are there any guides on how to recast my own models?
>>96618405Depends on what you mean by new.I found the emperor in the Foundation series, which is loosely based on Asimov's books, to be creative. 3 clones at different ages Dawn, Day, Dusk and they endlessly cycle.But if it has to be a totally original never been done before, I really can't think how you can do that when AI, Time Travel, consciousness shifting (I liked Severance) etc.. has all been touched on at some point.
>>96618457What goes around comes around
>>96618449my army has bright colours so i personally only use washes to tint colours a slightly different shade while putting enough shadow in the recesses for contrast. i wouldn't phase them out if you are having any doubts, they are always useful if your model has a good amount of detail. oh i also never use shades on flat surfaces.
>>96618461It’s a shitty way to do it but look up blue stuff recasting
>>96618421Necrons in general would work, they're metal skellingtons after all.
>>96618443The Clone Wars would have been different from Star Wars because the Clone Wars expanded on the setting's political and logistic themes, and created an entire new story around what in the original trilogy was a throw-away-lineSee >>96618444Dune and Cyberpunk have entirely unrelated and frankly incompatible aesthetics and themes. Dune is about the natural world triumphing over humanity's attempts to reshape it, and Cyberpunk is about social isolation caused by inequality to technological advancement. The Starship Troopers movie is very different from the book, frankly it's only called that for brand recognition. The movie was more of an Orwellian exploration in manufactured consent, and before you tell me that it isn't this is Paul Verhoeven's own words on the movie that he madehttps://www.theguardian.com/culture/2018/jan/22/how-we-made-starship-troopers-paul-verhoeven-nazis-leni-riefenstahl
>>96618405Gundam, uh….probably more I can’t think of.
>>96618448Here's the spoon feeding for the baby.I have no connections to this guy so I don't care what happens.https://blacklegionmarket.co/product/terminator-chaplain-collectors-edition/
>>96618444>they never approached GWThey literally did though and got denied, multiple blizzard employees from that time have talked about it, they wanted to make a warhammer game, GW said no, they quickly pivoted to making it an original game
>>96618449The best paints AP make are their washes there's no reason to stop using them
>>96618483Blizzard could have saved fantasy…grim.
>>96618483Nope, you're parroting a rumorWatch their docs about early blizzard when they were still making shit like the death and return to superman, they talk about the origins of warcraft and how diablo happened as a fluke when david brevik approached them at a convention with the idea for it
>>96618483Blizzard already made fantasy games and wanted to make an RTS game, tell me why it'd be unreasonable for them to want to make a fantasy game independent of GW?
>>96618490blizzard hasn't been able to make anything good since 2008
>>96618494Same could be said for gw
>>96618483Wrong, one co-founder wanted a warhammer game but the team didn't want to do more licensed gamesfrom the mouth of Patrick Wyatt, the producer of WC1:>“Warhammer was a huge inspiration for the art-style of Warcraft, but a combination of factors, including a fervent desire on the part of virtually everyone else on the development team (myself included) to control our own universe nixed any potential for a deal. We had already had terrible experiences working with DC Comics on “Death and Return of Superman” and “Justice League Task Force”, and wanted no similar issues for our new game.”
>>96618491>you're parroting a rumor>https://kotaku.com/how-warcraft-was-almost-a-warhammer-game-and-how-that-5929161>“[Blizzard co-founder] Allen Adham hoped to obtain a license to the Warhammer universe to try to increase sales by brand recognition”, Wyatt says.>Warhammer was a huge inspiration for the art-style of Warcraft, but a combination of factors, including a lack of traction on business terms They were literally talking business terms with them straight from the producer himself >>96618493I didn't say its unreasonable I'm saying they literally said they wanted to make a warhammer game and tried to get the license but failed
/v/ermin need to take their pissing contest to their own board.
>>96618480Dune has massive guilds and corporations.>"blah blah verhoeven made a lefty boner film"well he failed at his goal. he's not sitting next to me when i watch it. the author is dead.
Why didn't the emperor give space marines massive functional cocks? Aren't they supposed to be the perfect warriors? You're telling me I'm supposed to be scared of some neutered mutt that can't even get a hard on?
So the rumor going around is one of the Christmas boxes this year is a CSM list with>Lord Discordant>10 Legionaries>5 Havoks>2 Obliterators>1 Venom Crawler>1 RhinoI have the old Combat Patrol on the way via the Magazine along with the squad of Chaos Terminators you get as a bonus. Throwing everything together, and it comes up a little bit above 1100 points. If I want to make an Iron Warriors list what else should I add to it to fill it to 2k? I know I'm gonna swap the Dark Apostle for a Warpsmith, and I probably want to add a tank or two.
>>96618377>>96618480>>96618481>>96618405When I think modern sci-fi my mind goes to like.. The Expanse and Snowpiercer. I doubt the setting would be anywhere near as grand without the strong influence of Dune.
>>96618519Damn that box sounds like shit. If I had to start a Hh army I’d just by HH kits tbqh
>>96617907I like it but the leopard looks photoshopped in
>>96618519Vindicator, forgefiend
>>96618527away with you /v/ermin
>>96618404is it just me or does AP and Vallejo mog here with saturation?
>>96618532yes, the new AP range is much better than the new vallejo game color range
>>96618531Enjoy your $250 throwaway box
>>96618526Dune is more popular today than it was when the books were new
>>96618482if they have a website it means they operate in a country where the ip swat teams have less jurisdiction so its usually okay to share them. ime they are usually less quality though.>>96618448It took me 3 days to find them. If you are really so helpless that a few hours of googling and combing through forums and hints cant get you were you need to go I can't help you. Its like the /tg/ pdf thread. Its literally just the bare minimum security to protect the troves and it works and people literally want to be spoonfed so no one gets anything.
>>96618527>>96618531Yeah! /v/ermin!
>>96618342Having a full blown Chaos lord is pretty insane for a Killteam. Their power level in canon and gameplay can have them soloing tanks and Armigers. A Dreadnought gets one shot by a proto-Lord Exultant in one book
Tzeentch has been torturing my soul in the warp battle brothers. I need you to give me the Emperor's Mercy
>>96618544K. I won't then.
>>96618547Yeah but it’s a night lord.
>>96618519Gameplay-wise you probably want some cultists for sticky objectives and chaff to do secondaries. With all the Infantry you’ll have, rounding out the list with tanks and more demon engines would be fine as well.
>>96618527It's not terrible value, going by current prices>$79 Disco Lord>$65 Legionaries>$62.50 Havocs>$70 Chaos Rhino>$79 Venomcrawler/ObliteratorsIf they're increasing the Christmas Box prices to $250 this year that's still a $100 discount.
>trying to think of something spooky for next month
>>96618555lmao
>>96618544>ime they are usually less quality thoughYeah, kinda annoyed since all my email contacts have closed up shop so I've just been relying on webstores since I don't want to deal with Z quality and for the life of me I'm too retarded to find sptks
>>96618562Practically the whole setting works
>>96618547Marines in general are coming down in power level on the tabletop and it's been happening since 9th. Marine fluff has one guy soloing an army and accomplishing some impossible objective and extracting against a literal horde.Marine in tabletop is T4 2W and dies pretty much anything that isn't a Breacher CCW or lasgun. This applies to the characters too, they are tougher but will still get squished by anything actually big and strong.
>>96618569spartakus doesn't cast anymore either.
>>96618562Skellingtons are spooky
>>96618562I'm sure we will all think of something
>>96618573Oh true, I've still been seeing reviews so I assumed he was still doing some sort of business
>>96618572GW needs line to go up, they cant sell more marines if they're too strong on the table and the game becomes unplayable against marines. The answer? Nerf marines.
>>96618569STKPPSTPKS is great quality for small kits, he even ships on sprue (especially if you ask them too). He will be going away at some point because he is trying to transition to a less illegal business so he doesn't get swatted like Z did. His catalogue is insanely impressive, I got 6 harlequin kits and 4 starweaver kits for a great price and the sprues look great, a little flash but very easy to clean. Just make sure to rinse.My only hint would be to look for a certain subreddit thats invite only
>>96618571Explain how to make a standard IG or Ork model scary other than “just cover them in blood bro” I’m genuinely asking, I have no idea how I’m going to paint them.
>>96618562Would a Wraithlord count as "spooky"? It's a ghost robot dude.
>>96618581
>>96618587You're desensitized. A 1:1 scale ork would be fucking horrifying.
>>96618589pumpkin texture wraithlord with jack o lantern face on the faceplate
>>96617907> Some human civilizations turned DOWN the offer of Unity when presented by this DudeThey probably deserved to be annihilated
>>96618342i'm thinking i'm proxing HH again
>>96618603Do it!!!!!
>>96618482> My recaster is the guy who sells recasts he buys from another recasterLmao
>>96618599>orks are horrifying as is>this means any ork submissions are allowed by default>meaning anyone who wanted something orky can go back to painting their orks anywayorktober boys, we are so back
>>96618616I don't use them which is why I don't care about posting them
>>96618624Get laughed at, retard
>all other chaos space marines have a tank>EC did not have a tank on releasenoisesisters?are we going to get a noisetank?
how viable is it to make 1k point army of daemons of a specific deity?
>>96618630At least I'm in good company.
>>96618589Make him spiky and evil
>>96618636WE and TS dont have a tank either.
>>96618569I use pic related and the quality is impeccable. He's a fast shipper unless you're ordering the really, really high quality plastic sprue casts. Those take a few weeks to process but if you're just after new or old forge world models then they arrive in about a week.
>>96618636>>96618650I think he's confused because DG got 4 tanks
>>96618653>I use pic relatedI didn't know Ricky was in that business.
>>96618658>>96618650everyone has a tank except me
>>96618668Do you not have preds/rhinos/LRs? You have tanks
>>96618668>>96618673Never mindThis is me now
>>96618636why did GW love Deathguard so much more than the others?
>>96618589Here's a Day of the Dead themed wraith knight. That's sorta sp00ky
>>96618679So are chaos rhinos and land raiders the only vehicles you can take in an EC list?
>>96618421>>96618477Anything that appeared in a classic horror story works imo. Necrons are undead, Tyranids are xenomorphs, CSM work with Daemons and Possessed exist, Fabius Bile and Haemonculi fill the role of a horror mad scientist, Death Guard have zombies, Cults are a staple of horror stories, Blood Angels are vampires, Space Wolves are werewolves, and Inquisitors investigating spooky shit works too. Any other suggestions?
>>96618429>the game that was absolutely gonna be a 40k game?StarCraft game-design was too solid for 40k licensed game.
>>96618728There's also only three factions and the Protoss don't really resemble anyone in 40k.
>>96618743the protoss are literally just the eldar if they weren't lame
>>96618743>and the Protoss don't really resemble anyone in 40kBro
>>96618589Drukhari vibes?Maybe make him headless and do a wispy trail for a headless horseman vibe?Halo Reach/Xenomorph skull underneath the canopy?
>>96618745How? Tell me what the Protoss and the Eldar have in common
>>96618751>dying psychic race that use their spirits as batteries for mecha
>>96618751>Psychic alien race that regressed from their Golden Age but still retains powerful psychic and technological advantages over other factions>Due to their psychic nature, they're able to commune with each other on a deeper level than normal>Heavy emphasis on crystals for their tech>Walker units that are piloted by their mortally wounded warriors>Leader caste of psychic wizards
>>96618743Protess are eldar are kidding me? They even made dark eldar that feed off psychic pain and a subfaction of wraith constructs.
>>96618571>>96618587What about standard Tau? Kroot work for the obvious reason of being people eaters. Tau and IG and both do horrors of war but everyone can do that and it's not quite traditional Halloween spooky material.
man I want to paint but I really don't want to deal with priming right now
>>96618802Ghostkeel pulping some IG/Looming over them?
>>96618751There a whole evil protoss race just like there is an eldar one, they live on craftworlds after losing their homeworld (eldar lost their empire and all homeworlds) advanced tech compared to humans etc
About to go to the lgs for the first time with painted models.What are the dos and donts so I don’t set off a bad first impression with my community.Please forgive my autism.
>>96618684Because Maxime is insane and somehow convinced GW to produce all of his stinkyboi sculpts.
>>96618823Dont touch other people's models without permission. Dont smell bad. Don't be rude.
>>96618366>>96618391Just one pic per person. But if you would like to swap out a photo just reply to the fridgepost with a timestamped pic of the model already on the fridge alongside the new one and then make another post with the image you'd like to swap in attached. I want to make sure people are only swapping out their own models, I worry about someone claiming they owned a model and swapping it out for someone else because of a disagreement or something
>>96618823Don't be rude, don't walk around and tell people the thing they think is cool is actually stupid, don't smell, don't be creepy, don't make fun of anyone's models even if they are worse than yours
Choose ur big tt, phat ass waifFor me it's mechanimommy
>>96618818>they live on craftworlds after losing their homeworld (eldar lost their empire and all homeworlds)Protoss only lost Aiur, which they eventually retook. The Spear of Adun was a big ship but it wasn't a Craftworld.I fucking wish Eldar had their own Shakuras or Aiur.
>>96618846>>96618855I planned to shower and shave before going and not be rude I want to make some hobby buddies. Thanks guys.
>>96618865I dunno what the girl in the green bodice is supposed to be, but I like that her thigh highs have little jacket collars on them lmao
>>96618876god, autists really should be put on farms and segregated from normal human society. there can be no common ground or community with these people. the game that was literally made to be a rip off of 40k isnt 40k a 40k ripoff because of autistic hyperfixation on tiny details making them unable to do 70 IQ basic understanding of themes and style. talking to them is pointless, they decided on their beliefs years ago.
>>96618865As far as I know hybrids can’t be produced so I’m picking the tau waifu.We can boink all we want and no worry about pregnancy.
Today was the first day in a week it wasn't too humid to prime!But by the time I got home from work I'd forgotten and didn't prime anything!
>>96618899>As far as I know hybrids can’t be producedNot with that attitude
>>96618897I'm not saying Protoss aren't EldarI'm saying Protoss are better Eldar
>>96618911INCORRECT.
>>96618865>ridiculous hyper-proportions>basically all the same body and faceLooks like shit, anon. Get better coom bait.
>>96618911my apolocheese.
>>96618914I dunno anon, I like Elves but Protoss got the Ayy factor even more than Tau.
>>96618653is this still a webstore deal, or have they moved to an email setup?
>>96618865Tau, but they're barely different from each other
>World Eaters got their asses kicked by the Space Wolves in Armageddon>TWICE!
>>96618939I can nut to those thighs

Their Empire actually only collapses in SC1.>>Walker units that are piloted by their mortally wounded warriorsSo dreadnought.>Leader caste of psychic wizardsWasn't invented by Warhammer>>96618794To be fair Tal'Darim are nothing like Dark Eldar. They are literally ascetic conquerors, not hedonistic sadists.
>>96618939I'm just going to say itProtoss not having mouths is stupid, and a bad design, and every original idea Blizzard ever applied to the bones of the 40k game they were making was a bad one.Hot take: GW not having Warcraft and Starcraft as Warhammer and 40k games was ultimately for the best. Just look at where Blizz is today, a sad pathetic shell of what it was. Now look at GW, still evil soulless corposhits but they've never had a wider audience.
>>96618962space wolves make ultramarines look hated
If we're going to talk about /v/ trash, how about we talk about how space marine stole everything from gears of war.
>>96618809heh>>96618823don't overtalk, I remember observing a lot of ongoing games as a new player at the FLGS after I moved. I'd tend to watch a game then play one of the guys there until I had a few regular opponents. If this is your new primary FLGS, try and buy your paints, glue, and brushes there to show you're making purchases. Support your local store if they have tables and a space to play.

>>96618987it might mean something if there was a living Gears of War franchise to sit it next to, instead of "I AM WOMAN HEAR ME ROAR" 5

my buddies and I are planning a 6th ed Badab war campaign - anyone have the 6th ed space marine codex in pdf?
>>96618991This is actually an awesome product. As an autistic kid I got this illustrated bestiary or encyclopedia of tolkien's works and it was amazing. Can't remember the exact one, it was soft cover and I can never find one that actually looks the same from my memory when googling. Full of huge color arts and descriptions of all the niche characters and monsters. I spent hours flipping through it. If it came with a mini even better. I think this will make a lot of people happy desu, at least those who can read.
>>96619096>hackneyed garbage.Why? Too hard to grasp concept of Alien?
>>96618562A necron, surely. >>96618589by that definition a dreadnought would fit too since it's a more complicated mummy.
>>96619102they're literally just "We have Yautja" at homesomeone at blizzard saw the bit before the reveal, when the Predator's eyes flash in active camo, and just made that covered in gold shit and blue crystals, because blue crystals and gold bullshit is all Blizzard is artistically capable of.
>>96619152>, because blue crystals and gold bullshit is all Blizzard is artistically capable of.Bold judgement about creativity from marine player
its ridiculous chaos still has kits that are 20 years old
>>96619202
>>96619202loyalist marines have 25 year old models
>>96619201excuse youI paint Nids, you philistine. And I would sooner chew and eat my plastic than play 10th Edition and its "5 TURNS OF CONTROL POINTS...AGAIN!" snorefest.
>>96619212But they constantly get new models.
>>96617907I like orks :D
>>96619220Bad ones.
>>96619227you are literally never allowed to complain about marine releases, on pain of being called a pussy bitch
>>96619210We're getting new vypers with the corsairs range expansion.
>>96619202the chaos legions has received a good sized update at least once an edition since like dark vengeance
>>96619222Prove it
>>96619269He's ignored every attempt anyone has made to ask for his models
>>96619202Im more annoyed with how random GW are with who gets Termies.Theres no reason Grey Knights, Blood Angels, and World Eaters shouldn't have got Termies this edition. Even EC could have got an upgrade kit sprue for Termies.
>>96619213Are you currently larping as glosscoatanon rn, because nobody else here runs nids and plays old editions as well, but also glosscoatanon anon has mentioned he hasn't touched his nids in ages and also owns Iron hands primaris guys
>>96619041>>96619096Photosynthesis actuallyFYI for all the tards saying starcraft was meant to be a 40k game it was not theres probably slight influences from 40k but other sci-fi series were used way more.Terrans are nothing like the imperium in the slightest like not even a little bit.Zerg were developed completely independant from Tyranids starting back in 1995 and before the tyranid refresh came out with 3rd in 1998, they were very clearly more inspired by the aranchids from starship troopers which came out the previous year this is most obvious in the UED cutscenes from SC1 and also devs have stated the xenomorphs from aliens were also an inspiration.Protoss are literally not at all a dying race or decaying empire, they're generic grey ayylmaos something thats been done before dozens of times before and the only slightest relation they have to eldar is "ancient technologically advanced race with psychic powers" also unlike eldar they're honorbound warrios and every single protoss is connected to one another through a hive mind style psychic link.The protoss dark eldar equivalent are just regular protoss who sever their nerves cutting them off from the connection.
I sort of hope that the supposed Ultramarine Combat Patrol comes with a unit of the Honor Guard like the Blood Angels box does with the Sanguinary Guard.
>>96617907>If you could instantly own a fully painted army, which would it be?blood ravens so that I can use them to help new people learn the game
>>96619320Wow I sure do love all this great starcraft info, please provide for me something more related to Warhammer 40,000(a grimdark tabletop miniatures game) like a tutorial on how to get a thicc mechanicus milf gf(I know you're keeping all the hot ones to yourselves you clanker bitch) amd be as detailed as possible
Can't decide between Black Templars and Dark Angels. Can't make up my mind which Space Knights are cooler.
>>96619307work in progress, gotta clean up the green in the "muscles"I pop in for a few months of the year when I feel like painting, and then I'll probably wander off again when the motivation leaves me.>>96619320>he doesn't knowBlizzard literally started devlopment of both Warcraft and Starcraft with Games Workshop as part of development of a Warhammer/WH40k game franchise. GW backed out late in development, and Blizzard had to flip assets to ship the game at all, with a completely new storyline.And Tyranids have existed since Rogue Trader back in 1985, so they predate Zerg by a decade.
>>96619003lean into narrative / themed lists and lose in the coolest / most entertaining way possiblei'm very competitive and I hate losing. I've had to tone it down a lot because if I don't I'll just stomp most people I play with to an unfun degree or trigger an autism arms race. for casual games I pick a theme and keep a little journal of their exploits. if someone does something cool I give them a little battle honor (like a purity seal) and if someone dies like a bitch I paint a little battle damage on them.in general if you broaden the sources of your enjoyment / engagement with the hobby you can set a "fun floor" that ensures you keep having a good time. assuming your opponents aren't WAACfagging, in that case lol good luck
>>96619361oops, that was 1987, not '85, still beats Starcraft's actual release in 98 by 11 years.
>>96619361Oh its this guy, then you definitely don't have enough models to play a game, you've got like 25 nids total
>>96619371Bro, please stop pretending you know a single thing about me. You're embarrassing yourself.If I'm under 2000 points it's by a narrow margin, and even then I have models at the post office as we speak, plus my Deathleaper I just primed.You don't know who or what the fuck you are talking about.
>>96619361>>96619367Ok first of all the deal was a proposition only for the first warcraft game nothing about 40k was ever on the table 2nd of all Tyranids looked nothing like they do now until the 1998 refresh and starcrafts development began in 1995 and released march 1998 while the 3rd edition of 40k launched october 1998 also FYI 40k was not at all influential back then. It was not the behemoth of nerd culture it is today because it was still a niche ass miniature game that barely found a coherent solid basis for a setting until 3rd edition 1st/2nd were a whole other ballpark in terms of tone look at the boxart of 2nd and tell me thats similar to starcraft. Aliens/Predator/Starship troopers all had big budget movies just a few years prior to Starcrafts release and had way more of an impact than 40k ever did and 100% influenced 40k aswell.
>>96619320>Terrans are nothing like the imperium in the slightest like not even a little bit.They're also rather minor in the grand scheme of things. Unlike the Imperium, the lore importance is on the xenos and there's endings where they get ROFLstomped offscreen.
>>96618366Cool creation. Got any more pics of it?
>>96619377>I definitely don't play yucky 10th edition LOL>do I have enough models to play a 2k game>uhhhhhhh
>>96619392>you need to have a trainset at least THIIIIIIIIS LONG to be a trainset fanYou're autistic.
>>96619395You've had more than enough time to collect a playable army if you started before 10th. Just seems like you're complaining about something you can't participate in
>>96619397funny, I haven't seen your models yet.
>>96619397NTA, but 10th has different point values than other editions. In fact, each edition has different point values from each other. Furthermore 2000pts isn't the only size for a game, and it might be shocking for you to learn that for some editions 1500pts, such as 2nd, is more common.
>>96618004What is this, and why does it exist?
>>96619411Local avatarfag, ignore.
>>96619400Youll catch up one day!>>96619406Why would I play with less of my cool duders
>>96619389Also aren't the Terrans in StarCraft just like the back water parts of Humanity. Earth is actually super high tec or something. I haven't touched starcraft in ages.>>96619392Why are you giving the guy shit? Not everyone plays 2000pt games. I personally prefer 1500pth games.(Don't blame him since 10th is honestly trash).
>>96619381>Warcraft was directly inspired by Warhammer but they couldn't get the IP license so they just made legally distinct Warhammer>But they didn't copy 40kit's one of those incestuous IP relationships where both stole visual designs from each other, but the actual design for 3rd edition nids belongs to good ol' Warren Beattie.>tfw you learn today the Deathleaper was created by a Canadian GW employee from the days when there were still Canadian GWsmakes sense, the biomorph that's a living violation of the Geneva conventions would be Canadian.>>96619406as the guy he's heckling, I think it's worth noting I independently owned all the models for the new Nid Combat Patrol by the time it was announced. I find the goalpost shifting funny, we've gone from>you have 25 modelsto>y-you don't have a f-full 2000and on the one hand, I might if I actually tally the whole collection up, but if I don't it's not like I couldn't play any number of 1000 point games with any combo of my current force. Of course the nearest LGS is 1 hour away, which is the second reason I'm nogames.And while it's low brow, fuck it I'm just going to say it:>>96619417of course your a fucking marines player. fucking shocker.nice paint job, shame you're a petty dickhead.
>>96619417>mold lines>unfilled gapsSo close to being perfectly fine, but also so far away.
>>96619429Nta but you're calling other people a petty dickhead and then lashing out at random people because they play the wrong plastic spacemen, and you were doing it before that anon called you a larper>>96619213
>>96619429>nice paint jobCan't tell if trolling or blind/retarded
>>96619358>Can't make up my mind which Space Knights are cooler.Try the Howling Griffons or Iron Knights.
>>96619443I had kinder words about his models than the other guys, and that "lash out" only started because I stated my opinion that Blizzard sucks fat dick and always has.
>>96619358make your own chapter and use models from both
>>96618371I actually do want to paint a second sisters army in a different colour scheme but it feels pointless because rules are so shit there's way to differentiate armies by playstyle or theme.
What's the coolest Chaos Space Marines legion?
>>96619493world eatersno jakhals and eightbound don't count
>>96619493I feel like Imperial Fists are the most emblematically Space Marine legion of marines. Yeah I know they're technically fortification specialists and not quite as generic as Ultramarines, but to me they're all the neutral vanilla of Ultramarines without the nasty "We're The Main Characters!" aftertaste.That said Pre-heresy World Eaters are my favorite color scheme.
Post music to paint tohttps://youtu.be/VABnw5y3vwA?si=6Tiq7NXOctg4Y9bx
>>96619494>world eatersThey're kinda jobbers and not in a fun way like Night Lords.
>>96619493I've never seriously considered starting a CSM army but I like the Word Bearers the most
never let it be said im not dedicated to my hobby. just assembled and primed my corvus blackstar (stormraven gunship proxy) today. im slowly chipping away at my pile of shame and assembling my army now that all 2k points are purchased and at my house.also check out my neat display carrying case !

>>96619511I didn't even know these had lights
>>96619454You called a guy a philistine for assuming you played marines, I don't see that being much kinder imo but that's just me
What should I buy next to round out my armies gamers?>Death Guard Combat Patrol>Tyranid combat patrol >Deathrattle SpearheadAll 3 have models Ive wanted for a while and dont own. All three cost the same. All three are plenty available so there's no risk of missing out. Should I get one or just chill and just paint for a while, wait on future releases instead?
>>96619600Aquire boners
>>96619597pfffft.this is 4chan, I could have called him six flavors of retard, instead I jokingly used a toothless historical termactually, literally grow thicker skindevelop dermal armor this instant.
>>96619603Boners are rad but I cant post painting boners here cause its not 40k.
>>96619563it is !>>96619578ty boo <3 ill try to go on an assembly spree and get 1 box assembled and primed a day. since building them isnt too hard, especially marines. >>96619582yea it takes eight (8) AA batteries tho so i only leave it on for a second or two ....
>>96619615Right now you're complaining that he called you something you don't like, so you called him something mean, so someone called you something mean, but that the thing you said wasn't mean enough for people to care when the only thing anyone had said to you was accusing you of being another anon, and accusing you of not playing the game.
>>96619621Postem in aosg, help us drown out the towshitsirrers please they never leave and can only post grey models
>>96619622I'm sure there's some sort of battery pack you could fit in there if you have a cosplay bro good with wiring
>>96619642I don't play the game, and never pretended otherwise. I paint the minis, I read the books, I enjoy the setting. What really started this argument is that I talked shit about Protoss, which is what I think you're actually mad about.
Recently saw the new night bringer and it makes me want to play 40k again. I had the old night bringer back in 3rd. Anyway, how are necrons now? They seem like a slow, tank melee army now. I really like the wraiths and skorpet destroyers and doomstalkers. Any suggestions on a good list to start building to?
>>96618170>Say you got two websites for warhammer right? And a box of units you wanna get available at each one. Base price, 55 bucks.>Buying from website A will cost you 58 total>Buying from website B will cost you 63 total>Which shop are you buying from?
>>96618914Nah he is right.Eldar were 40k designated fapbait for three decades and none buys them, because they are just glorified Imperium's cheerleaders.Yet people still remembers CHADtanis
>>96619672hey man, would you pay 5 bucks extra for instant shipping? Some people would.

>>96619678Depends if it is a Monday or a Thursday. Like if it's Monday you aren't going to really work on them until the weekend so let it take 5 days, if it's Thursday you need them by tomorrow....
>>96619689>Like if it's Monday you aren't going to really work on them until the weekendJokes on you, im a NEET
>>96619688Current scheme mostlike
>>96619681aw yeahhttps://youtu.be/Oeo2VCCtUZQ?si=QHAhPJxDscdBsS7L
>>96618377Absolutely Game of Thrones. 40K is a space fantasy setting without a doubt considering Orks and Eldar (Tolkien Elves) are in it as staple fantasy races and there's magic and shit. Game of Thrones would have impacted it heavily and it'd be gay because GRRM is a fat faggot hack cunt.
>>96619505https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnKd3V-VpDs&list=RDCnKd3V-VpDs&start_radio=1
>>96619684Tell me im wrong about 10th and that I should play it.I'd actually love it if there was a community in my area interested in 40k, but considering the current edition is shit and GW isn't in the habit of getting smarter, it's likely not going to happen any time soon.Anyways, you don't need to play to own models, and you don't need to either to post on 4chan, so I think we're done arguing bout your pointless dick measuring semantics.
>>96619738>Eldar>Tolkien ElvesRemind us when Tolkien elves were hedonistic jobbers?
More naughty tech boys done up.Not sure what to work on now, either a Battle Sisster squad or Bayards Revenge
>>96619782the first age??
>>96619805Wait what happened to Celectian squads while I was away Did they just get folded into the regular squads?
>>96619099do you need the badab rules and books aswell?

Hows the razorback with scouts? I like the idea of putting a twin linked lascannon in the midfield early but I'm not sure about the point cost.
always think it's funny when you bring someone like Angron and then miss every attack like bro what is wrong with you today
Now that Marines only have 1 old kit left, the Vanguard Vets, what's GW going to do for their Space Marine releases once they announce that? Will they keep pumping out random new units and vehicles, shift towards more chapter specific stuff, or god forbid shift focus away from marines for a little while in favor of other factions?
>>96622158They're definitely going to go with chapter specific stuff, they're already underway on that project.
>>96618547Kill team is weird, it has a squad of random traitor guardsmen squaring up against a Space marine captain and his 5 homies. It doesn't scale well with marines.
>>96622422probably why deathwatch went with 5 stronger marines. and also why they included 10 marines, in case they decide to go back to a 6man team.
>>96618562This was my first take on some flayed ones. I will probably give the newer plastic sculpts a try for the collage.
