>>96626568>tqThis onePick your 40k waif, for me it's mechanimommy
>>96626622Succubus wife pls all the the lady in the green next to her has the best thighs
>>96626622Giving Navigator plasma pistol seems like bad idea. Woudn't want to lose one to accidental overheat.
Namefag thread ignore.
>>96626644There's tens of billions of Navigators,a few them them should be in other professions than just being navigators. In RT 5% of all Imperium assassins had the navigator gene, so 3 eyes vindicares or eversor are canon
>>96626669neat lore, thenk you
40k bros, care to explain whats up with all these faggy jerseys at events these days?
>>96626568>What's your favorite 40k fan project?Probably Astartes.I mean, yeah, it's shameless Marine wank and for 90% of the animations they're fighting militias so weak they're barely even represented on the tabletop...but it's still top-tier animation. Besides, what else do I have to look forward to, the Exodite ended up being fuckin' trash.
>>96626692guys have been making team shirts for their hobbies for thousands of years.
Learning about Tau Lore, their short lifespans really result in silly explanations for why Farsight’s friends are still around.
reminder that coomers won, big tiddy tau gfs are now canon
The more i read the HH books the more I appreciate 40k. Emps is a complete retard that deserved what he got
>>96626742I was going to post big titty tau but this is a different ssd and I haven't saved a single big titty tau pic in 5 months.
>>96626622For me its the primarch gfs female magnus best btw
>>96626622navi-chan or elfdar-chan.
>>96626729I thought it was specifically because Tau elites get access to the tech that keeps you alive, similar to how skaven in fantasy only live for 10 years (assuming they are not killed by other skaven like usually happens) but the council and other clan lords use daemonic alchemic science to live for hundreds of years before ascending to become verminlords.
>>96626752The emperor is Jonas Venture.
>>96626759Have a medium sized tau
>>96626729GW went a little overboard on the Tau species biology lore. Tau lifespans being so short makes it hard to believe they accomplish anything before dying of old age
Post games
>>96626781I think it can be quite cool if explored well. Mass Effect did a neat job exploring a short lived race.
>>96626692It’s harmless fun and appeals to tribalism instincts by assuming a shared identity. You joyless hatepig.
>>96626784Grim setup there.
>>96626568>TQThe ongoing 4th edition battle bible project. Though I think it ran out of steam. I don't know how I can contribute to it so I want to keep my hands off of it. And I think a lot of people did the same thing.
>>96626773Looking it it specifically, Tau apparently are compatible with human life extending surgery (though not with the same effectiveness and looked down upon socially), but outside that it seems it's either you get put on ice until you’re needed, they make an AI of you, or you have a silly third option like Farsight’s pals.
>>96626835I like his pink. But wonder why he just stuck plants onto the base without putting any kind of terrain on it.
>>96626742Book source, please? I need evidence of this.
What's the chances of a new kill team starter box with 11th
>>96626861its from Elemental Council
>>96626858Some people actually prefer that aesthetically. Having the base be empty could be a gameplay abstraction to allow your brain to think hes just standing on the "game board" which could be any number of settings. You see how he does green markings on the base? Its like selecting a unit in an RTS. I think it looks quite good personally.
>>96626868Kill Team already got their new edition earlier this year, so its just going to be new kits for a few years.
>>96626870Thanks.
>>96626868Lately it seems every GW game is on a 3-year cycle. So new editions will be:2026: 40k, Old World2027: AoS, Killteam2028: Horus Heresy, Underworlds
seeing the infernal master next to my other 1ksons makes me realize just how small they arei mean they're not jarringly ill proportioned, but they are ever so slightly smaller
i know listfagging is frowned upon buuuut.....can any experienced tabletopchad take a look at my ultras list? im trying to assemble a decent army based on the models I have purchased:https://www.newrecruit.eu/app/list/qu0z5Roboute Guilliman (340pts): Hand of Dominion, The Emperor's Sword, WarlordUriel Ventris (95pts): Bolt Pistol, Invictus, Sword of IdaeusLieutenant (65pts): Pistol, Master-crafted Bolter & Melee Weapon, Close combat weapon, Bolt Pistol, Master-crafted BolterLieutenant with Combi-weapon (70pts): Combi-weapon, Paired Combat Blades5x Intercessor Squad (80pts)5x Intercessor Squad (80pts)4x Company Heroes (105pts)3x Eradicator Squad (100pts)5x Hellblaster Squad (110pts)5x Scout Squad (70pts)Ballistus Dreadnought (150pts): Armoured Feet, Ballistus Lascannon, Ballistus Missile Launcher, Twin Storm BolterBallistus Dreadnought (150pts): Armoured Feet, Ballistus Lascannon, Ballistus Missile Launcher, Twin Storm BolterStorm Speeder Thunderstrike (150pts): Close combat weapon, Stormfury Missiles, Thunderstrike Las-talon, Twin Icarus Rocket PodStorm Speeder Thunderstrike (150pts): Close combat weapon, Stormfury Missiles, Thunderstrike Las-talon, Twin Icarus Rocket PodStormraven Gunship (280pts): Armoured Hull, 2x Stormstrike Missiles, Twin Assault Cannon, Typhoon Missile Launcher
>>96626929Its not really frowned upon, its just usually people dont really know your army well enough to give reasonable commentary. Not to mention for casual players being super optomized is kind of discouraged because armies are usually built for narrative or cool factor first for most people. 40k stats lets you check top4s for your faction across all tournaments which is a good resource to see whats good or whats not, but a lot of the time its risky because sometimes whats good is based on combos that arent explained just in the army list.
>>96626922They were the biggest marines when released. My how the tables turn. Its ok now we have robots?
>>96626940I would think most people at least have an opinion on Gladius Ultramarines since they're probably the most played faction in the game.Personally I have nothing to add though as I don't collect or play against many space marines.
Whats the last "big" (tank size or bigger) model released for something besides the imperium?
>can't decide between building an army around three dorns or a shadowsword >what if... i field both for 1185 pointsam i falling into the trap of being a pseudo-knights army and not fun to play against?i don't think the shadowsword is very good
>>96626940really im just getting feedback from experienced anons that can spot shitty or meme units in my build and recommend me alternatives since i dont know anything about the gameplay side of the hobby yetonce i get a decent list in im basically not going to change it and run the same thing until point increases make it so that i cant. so far the feedback has really helped me weed out the shitty units that I was running before which I really appreciate !
>>96626956Snaggas Kill Rig?Knight Despoiler?The Silent King?
>>96626982nonce artist
>>96626978russes are more fun I think
>>96626978Your a guardfag so if someone doesn't fight you with the expectation of atleast 3 tanks then they are an idiot.>>96626929Eh decent enough list only thing that could be a problem is a lack of infantry for objectives but you do have 2 intercessor squads and 1 scout squad so that should be good enough.
>>96626997i considered it but i really don't like the russ modeli've had a russ sitting on my desk for decades and it's never grown on me
>>96627019IJustThinkTheyreNeatwish we had Malcadors still though..
Trying to decide if I should grab a wave serpent this weekend before the price rise
>>96627026the tiny ass turret and the hull lascannon sticking out almost as fire as the cannon just bother me to no endi thought i liked tonks of all kinds until i saw the russ all those years agoi wish we could get plastic malcadors and macharius and other tonks
>>96626622Corsair gf but no Craftworld gf?
>>96627031If you were going to do it anyway, then yes. If you're only buying it because of the price rise then you're just feeding into them.
>>96626568>TQeasy
>>96626941for what you get, the robots are to small as welli'd like to proxy but idk with what
>>96627044I am starting an Eldar army but I wasn't planning any more purchases until I had made some good progress on the Combat Patrol. Currently I have it all built but only like a third of it primed.
>>96627046desu I think the datasheet is good and egyptian robots is one of those things thats so insanely kitbashable I think its a great addition. I dont collect tsons but I think necromunda has some really cool robots about the same size I would use instead that have a more gracile silhouette.
Waddup peeps, anyone played a game recently?
>>96627045>not squad brokenmeh
>>96627042should have gotten them instead of the dorn 100%
>>96627007tnx anon, im mostly focusing on vehicles in this list and the idea was to have just barely enough for the objs. i wanted to be a bit more combat oriented if that makes sense ya know ?
Is the inner circle task force worth using after the buff?
>>96626761FemFulgrim triggers my danger alarm
>>96627061You really are thee "Space Wolf"..
>>96627059they're cooler but not 1ksons enough for and cost the same price
>>96627084looking at other necromunda kits, i'm actually pretty pissed they removed cultists from 1ksons how do they even justify that
>>96627064eh, i think the dorn looks pretty good thoughthe double cannon variant even though it's less good ruleswise
Can space marines get fat? Not like through nurgle magic or anything but like from eating food fat, like assume a chapter/company whatever gets cut off and stranded on a decently prosperous world and over the years their training regime slips and they still eat like kings, do they get fat or do they have some organ that keeps them trim?
>>96627090Yes.
>>96627081wow! Awooooo!
Im doing a chaos knights list, and I ended up adding some nurglings at the end just to get closer to 2k. Does anyone know of an STL that would let me have some sort of nurgling equivalent of daemon engines? I basically want scarab swarms but not-necrons, so my army isn't just 8 mechs and 3 random nurglings. I've been looking through myminifactory for like an hour now and I'm feeling like I'm taking crazy pills. I find it hard to believe no one has made some Vashtorr friendly daemon engines to use.
>>96627085Because obviously a faction named Chaos has extremely strict rules on what unit type each warband is allowed to have
I have so many stealth suits to paint
Wolfy Wolfersons rise up!
>>96627129Awooooooo!!!!!! NIGGERSONS!!!!!
>>96626568>Thread Question: What's your favorite 40k fan project?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MbqVEOA_ioTwo of my favourite thingsMay as a grot is wicked work
>>96627081Was considering Black Templars but I am not so sure now..
Finished up my Buri, I think the blade in particular came out pretty well
Nr
>>96627084I was actually thinking more about the Arachnarig with different legs and some egyptian bits. It would match the infiltrating datasheet very well.
>>96627149Not the worst, I like the base with the tyranid spikes coming out of the rocks but there was a bit of overspray with the airbrush and a lot of details seem simply unpainted like the pilot light on the center of the chestpiece. The tyranid shell came out great, where the messiness of hte airbrush lends naturalness to the carapace and the texture paint (great choice) in the crevices is good visual storytelling.
>>96627045is there good GSC stuff? not asking for recs, just a yes or no
>>96627167more like Dr. Octarig.>WHERE IS THAT WALL CRAWLING ELF!?
wat dis?
>>96627211buttplug
>>96627211looks like a Krootox prosthetic arm
>>96627149I like it, but there are design aspects of the model that bug me. The crest sprouting from the Warrior's mouth looks too much like it's sticking out its tongue in death, even when you paint it gold maybe clean up those teeth with a little drybrushI have to say, the Votann are growing on me. The concept of a faction that's maintained their technology without the mechanicum, and thus can be a small (lmao) window into the Dark Age of Technology. The underpinnings of human technology are all there, just through the lense of space dwarves. It gives us an idea of what shit was like before Slaanesh spoiled the party. Obviously you can't make such a faction just humans, it would just be the new best main character faction.We still need time for someone with a good concept of what they should be to release some good lines/books, but until then I don't mind Deep Rock 40k. Not gonna collect them, but I'm no longer annoyed at the short king scalping my boy Tyranid Warrior without even the grace of a new Warrior kit. And I'm also seeing art of him soloing a Norn Emissary? What the fuck?
>>96627211Kroot shit or necromnda squats.
>>96627211the triangular paint and the gun aesthetic they showed off are both kroot aestheticyou could even interpret some of that elbow detail as kroot elbow quills.
>>96626761Excellent taste
>>96627252Those triangles are all over Kroot stuff, and nowhere on Squats. Plus the fingers on the rumor engine hand are arranged just like a Krootox's fingers.
>>96627232Maybe, I was thinking orks since I saw triangle motifs on the squig riders but these also have tringles so they also fit.
>>96627267Good to know but if it's doesn't look marine-ish, I don't care.
>>96627250Yeah the crest looks way too much like a skink with its tongue out, but that's stock, sadly.And yeah, that art is canon, and cool as fuck. Dude solos nid monsters. He's basically 40k Gotrek.
>>96627278I don't think that's an Ork prosthetic, it looks way too nice.

>>96627295we seriously need a new named nid, something swarmlord adjacent in the emissary morph.I'm tired of seeing this cool new kaiju sized bug get Worf'd again and again by whatever badass when need to give props this week.
>>96627250>maybe clean up those teeth with a little drybrushIn what world would doing a drybrush at that stage not make things worse in every way. Please don't give advice on topics that you aren't confident in, it isn't helpful. If you just wanted to talk about votann stuff with him you could have done so without giving him painting advice that would bite him in the ass
>>96626761>pedo artist
>>96627149Carapace turned out very nice. I like the subtle tan bits between the chitin
>>96627362sorry for giving bad advice, person no one was talking to.
>>96627167If you gave it a giant bomb to roll around you could call it a scarab
>>96627371seconding this, I really love how dusty it looks, goes very well with the base work.
>>96627377Give actual advice instead of fabricating things making up advice isnt advice at that point. Also this is a message board, not your personal MSN messenger group. Anyone can talk to you, or about you at any time, without your permission

Better than he was before. Better, stronger, faster. can someone edit a kroot face onto the six million dollar man?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CPJ-AbCsT8
>>96627211Have tau not got their codex, I thought they got theirs already with the kroot wave? Is this for next edition or something? Cause I can't see it being another killteam for kroot
>>96627388Kind of like anyone could tell you to go fuck yourself at any moment, any time.the point of the advice was "yo there's a little gold on those teeth." no one was required to follow my advice to the letter, if at all. you can stop being the conversation police while your janitor application is being looked at.
>>96627371thanks>>96627362I wasn't planning to fix those parts up anyway, from the table it looks perfect
>>96626922actually seeing IM next to my scarb terminatorsholy shit this is bad
>>96627410You seem very upset that someone called you out for just spouting bullshit that wouldnt help or work. I'm sorry nobody bought your larp, maybe do some googling about painting first next time. Honestly this is some drybrush professor tier faggotry rn where you're lashing out at people for recognizing you have no clue what you're talking about.
So is the Drukhari book good? I like incubi a lot, maybe the coolest models in the game, not totally thrilled with the rest of the range though.
>>96627410>you know you could make your iced tea a little sweeter by adding some saltthat's not what salt does, you need sugar>uhm the point of my advice had nothing to do with salt, it was about suggesting he make it sweeter>you don't have to follow all of my advice>just the part that isn't advice where I just address the problem without a solution
>>96627422Looks perfect in the pic too lad, no stress

Hello friends.I want to start a Tau army, specifically the Auxiliary Cadre one, after playing Tau a bunch in Dark Crusade and learning to love them there.What units would you recommend for that playstyle?
>>96626761Autistic phat ass poly alpha mommies that you can't tell apart please
>>96627459Never ever buy an army you only like one model of unless you can feasibly convert all the models you don't like to something you do with ease
>>96626780>medium>D Cupslmao
>>96627045Shame its gayIm into hetero mechabare
>>96622790Hey anon I hope you don't mind I quickly made your dudes a unique chapter badge, I just threw it in DoW to see its readability if I knew how to mod Space marine 2 I would've just threw it over the lamenters heart icon to see it with checkerboard pattern. Ignore that its jagged to all hell because I did it in a raster layer not vector so ignore that.
>>96627263Back to your AI garbage dump thread, slop faggot.
Me want Enclave Marines.
>>96627578/slop/ I'd just /wip/ for ai. It's meant to contain the discussion of generating images, but the final products are still relevant to the games they are referencing
>>96627598no, fuck off to your containment general faggot

Are death guard really the only instance we have of bloated marines?
>>96626622Angry sisters gf is the patricians choice
>>96627584What stops you from converting fallout minis into marines?
>>96627623Why have we had two posts about fat marines in the same thread out of nowhere
>>96627635some discord raider with an inflation fetish probably
>>96627633Nta but putting in effort is a super power these days. It's easier to daydream or complain
I wasn't aware that Custodes being practically naked had become canon again. When did this happen?
>>96627573Wow anon that's really nice of you. Using the Lamenters' chapter icon is intentional and is their intended chapter badge. This is really cool though. I'll use it for an elite unit designation. I really appreciate it, Thanks anon!
>>96627657Since GW broke the custodians into the golden banana boys (and girls) 10,000 and then the Companion 300 who are naked and personally guard the corpse
>>96627657When they realized it was based

It's revealed that Valdor calls himself the Yellow King because hes the chief servant of the the real King in Yellow, the Emperor.The Emperor is actually Hastur and some sort of the Great Old One (serperate and far older from the Old Ones that created the races and the war in heaven). Humanity is trapped into worshipping some alien god that merely poses as a human (badly).How do you react

Does anybody have any pictures of how the current heresy tacticals scale against the most recent 40k tacticals?

newfag here. how legal is it to paint your dudes whatever color you want? Like can my blue horrors be not-blue and my pink horrors be not-pink?
>>96627807100% legal. Theyre your models. Just let your opponent know what rules you are using.
>>96627807I hate that the hobby has reached such an absolute state where people actually ask things like this. But to answer the question yes you can paint things however you like, the whole point of the hobbying aspect of warhammer is to make the dudes you put your time into /yourdudes/
>>96627798No, he's such a genuine outsider he's convinced those squatty marines must be 20 years old
>>96627819Alright well I don't actually care that much either way
>>96627817>>96627815thanks. saw this thing on the internets so just wanted to make surehttps://warhammerworld.warhammer-community.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/15/2019/10/Updated-Model-Requirements.pdf
>>96627250It's because of the cookies you've been eating.
>>96626568Any repos of scanned GW models/bits? All I can find is some sus Russian shop.
>>96627843>2019Safe to ignore. Nobody enforced that rule anyway.
>>96627659no problem man I like making chapter badges when I'm bored and when I saw your chapters name I had a image flash of inspiration happy you could find some use purpose for it.
>>96627817Wasn’t there a point in the game where you had to paint your marines a certain color in order to play that subfaction
>>96627858It was an official tournament thing that didn't matter for most games
>>96627843That rules only for the Warhammer world shop in Nottingham and only for events, you can paint your dudes however you want
>>96627401Its for the kroot codex
>>96626781>Tau lifespans being so shortI've asked this before and not got an actual answer, so I'll ask again;Is this actually a thing? Like can someone provide a source?Because from what I'm aware the whole short life span thing came from the OG Tau Codex which said that Aun'shi was 40 years old and nearing retirement when he lead a bunch of Fire Warriors in defending an outpost, including single handily killing an Ork Nob.
>>96627985>Tau have such strong worker rights you retire before 50 They really are too perfect
Can I ask for a bit of motivation speech to continue painting one of my armies? I have three projects and I am tempted to start fourth, but I really shouldn't till I finish at least one. Can you bully me to either: 1) Prime vehicles for sisters (exorcist and immolator, sad, gray, have been gathering dust on the shelf since purgatos mission). I like sisters, but don't like the shitton of details on their vehicles and get overwhelmed just by the idea of painting it. 2) Paint drones for T'au. I love battlesuits, but I hate drone chore. 3) Attempt to batch paint the bone and gut details on deathguard marines. I love deathguard. I hate how every model has the maggots, guts, tongues, boils and such on completely different spots! Or... I could start building drukhari. I snatched three of the combat patrols, because I was told they are the best start for the army.
>>96627267>headlight is blocked by the wheel
>>96627046LI Cerastus Knights are 20$ off MSRP for four, and perfect in terms of a base. Good fucking luck with the wargear though.
>>96628071Anon, that dwarf clearly has no headlight. Look at his helmet.It's just visor and goggles.
>>96627267>>96628071I still think that the squats in necromunda don't really fit the game.I think it'd been nicer if they made all the tech and whatever the squats use to have a slight jerry-rigged look to them. Like to show that the squats are good at working with technology and are smart enough to combine stuff to make repairs or to make a new thing.

>>96628152I say you ought to just sit this edition out if you plan on playing dark eldar famalam.
>>96628152Have you considered 2000pts of hellions and reavers
>>96627263
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96628152You want Dark lances in Kabalite Cartel.On average you deal 9 damage per volley of Haywire into S11 and below, and about 10.6 on average with Lethal contracts. This gets even better with buffs in Kartel like crits on 5.Raiders are not that useful in Kartel because the firepower of Kabalites has been reduced and it's very expensive to ferry them around. Mandrakes are also very expensive for what they do.If you cut the raiders and Mandrakes, you can afford a bit more - a Venom for splitting infantry, a Cronos for PT economy and that leaves you at 870, which is enough to get a second ravager or a second squad of big gun scourges.I would also reccomend getting a second Archon, as you can start doing Infiltrate shenanigans with Informant Network
>>96628109i mean 10am fuck
Giving the titan it's first spin today. Very excited to finally field him. Will post Batrep later.
>>96628216Good luck elfchad, show them Rhana Dandra>>96628216.
>>96628152Well, first of all I will warn you that Cartel does not play well at 1K points. You are really banking on the opponent not being able to hide everything that they deploy to pick a good contract and to have enough shooting to overwhelm a vulnerable target in the first two rounds to get the pain token economy going. You are also not going to get as much mileage out of Kabalites in Raiders as you might hope because Raiders do not have the cabal Or blades for hire keywords and so cannot benefit from the Detachment rule. Ravagers are much more important to have because they have shooting that can re-roll without spending a pain token and can engage from long range and benefit from the lone op stratagem to keep them alive while the Raider cannot. You also might want to specify whether you are bringing dark lances or disintegrators on your ravagers, because there is now a legitimate argument for both since they buffed the latter. Disintegrators with carbine scourges are particularly nasty and their higher volume of fire works really well with the crit fives strat as well to pop a contract target early on.You also are lacking something to hold your front lines and keep you from just getting folded in by more aggressive armies. A pair of cronos is now an incredibly durable and tanky option for extremely cheap cost. You might get better mileage out of that than one of the Raiders for keeping your kablites alive and pushing out into no man's land objectives. You also might want to consider adding a trio of reavers into your list at at 1.5k because you are going to need fast units to run up and down flanks to do objectives and mandrakes are nice but now require pain tokens to do so. If you already own 10 Mandrakes though they are a reasonable substitute in this particular detachment since they have the option to do a surprising amount of damage with sustained dev wounds if needed in a pinch.
>>96626761For me, its Jagathai or Corvus
>they couldn’t bother making enough of your one actual new model DE fags keep losing
>>96626622All of these are in such profoundly bad and uncouth taste that I genuinely can't see how someone can jerk off to this and not feel like a complete slobbering retard, what the fuck are these proportions and shading man. We should illegalize drawing porn without making proper human-like bodies.Anyway Deamonhost GF preferably of the slaneeshi or tzeentch variety not the nurgle one...Or charismatic water caste gf that I can't tell loves me or is just using me
>>96628241Yeah, Malys is selling out instantly on all the preorders but the battle box is a dud still available in most regions.
>>96628152Looking at the new Goonhammer review we can see the point costs for some of the Dark Eldar units from the new codex (because they get the real points early).>Malys 100 pts>Hand of the Archon 125 pts>Mandrakes 75 pts>Scourges (DL) 130 pts>Ravagers 115 pts>Wyches 90 pts>Hellions 85 ptsCalling it now that Spectacle of Spite is going to be a problem shortly after launch
>Hand of the Archon 125yikes
>>96626692Do (you) paint all your dudes™ differently? Five different color schemes per five man squad? o_O
>>96626568Hey 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.
>>96628265>Kabalites 115>Carbine Scourges 80>Raider 85>Venom 70>Incubi 90Kabalites at 115 doesn't feel right to me considering they got worse than they used to be without sticky objectives in venoms.
>>96628278Objective marker would be so sick
>>96627657That aspect was never decanonized, technically speaking.GW simply didn't mentioned it - out of convenience I suppose, until there was a right way and opportunity to highlight it again.
buff burly custodes would be kino
>Release 1 (one) new Drukhari model>Having stock issuesHOW
>>96628317Well if its thew only new thing to buy, then that's what all the Drukhari players will buy, isn't it smart guy
>>96628317Not expecting their only new brand new model in 15 years to sell out instantly is ridiculous. Especially when it's a pretty girl model lots of people are going to buy just to have.They either underproduced it or they were already having production issues with the mold to begin with which is why they never committed to putting Dark Eldar anywhere on the roadmap even though we know the model leaked like 6 months ago and has been designed since 2023 according to the copyright stamp.
>>96627657>naked female custodesHot
>>96628300not going to happen because most of the paintfags here don't actually play the game
So what do you guys think of the possibility of Lorgar getting a model in 11th?
>>96628366What is there TO think of it? I'm really not sure what you expect
>Box set sold out despite being terrible>Dice sold out>Had to straight up say that there aren't enough Malys' to meet demand>All the compfags are mid tournament so it cannot be themwtf i thought this was a dead faction
>>96628366I'll just consoom, plain and simple.
>>96628373Im still surprised grey knights managed to sell anything out back when it first released
>>96628373They've been dead competitively for this whole edition but they had a massive influx of players in 9th edition during Drukhari summer.
>>96628385ah yeah back when drukhari broke the game
>>96628373It doesn't matter what the prices are if it's the only new thing your faction has to buy in a decade or more.
>>96628387Eh? Mandrakes weren't that long ago, Incubi not that long ago off the top of my head
>>96628389Those were updates of old resin kits.Drukhari haven't gotten a new 40k kit (Entirely new, not an upgrade sprue, not a refresh, not forgeworld stuff that instantly got squatted, actually NEW) since 5th edition
>>96628391They were new though, definitely modern kits, very easy to tell from the designs
>>96628387this is in dingo dollars right? RIGHT?
>>96628396Yes, lol. The American prices aren't quite that ridiculous.
>>96628373that's a result of an influx of thirsty femcels into the hobby due to RT
>>96628394The difference is that every long time DE player already had 15 mandrakes and at least 20 of the old incubi. We at least had the option to keep using our old models in their place. Malys is a completely new model for a completely new unit with no existing equivalent.
>>96628399I would not be surprised if truecari are the fourth most popular Army among women right behind tyranids, orks,, and sisters.
>>96628399Marazhai saving Dark Eldar
>>96628399Maybe sexually aggressive sadomasochistic dark elf twunks were the vitamin 40k needed.
>>96628401So? The choice is the same. Do you keep using old models or buy new models and shelf some of the old ones to make room
>>96628399this is kind of hot... I wouldn't like it though...
>>96628409And we did make a choice. We want new units more.
>>96626622Obviously SoB wife. Also when does Crux Terminatus come out? It is the only thing I am looking forward to right now.
>>96626568What are good books to learn more about Death Guard?
>>96628373see>>96628385Honestly I think that absolutely insane Combat Patrol created a lot of new dark eldar players.
>>96628241All you had to do was make 12 models so there would be one for each of us to order. But noooo, you had to switch over to making Terminators already and just couldn't wait until the end of the week.
>>96628414Who's we? Lots of people will say no thank you to a new unit (lots of people especially don't care for special characters at all), lots of people will jump to replace old rubbish resin with good modern plastic, and also lots of prospective new/recent Deldar players would have been staying away from units with old models BECAUSE they know there is a strong chance they have new kits in the imminent future
>>96628399Honestly, I would play consider learning 40k if my bf let me to torture them (playfully and consensually) if they lost.
>>96628436Loser bottoms is a classic way to play 40k so i dont see why that would be much different
Bought a new dark eldar CP to go with the two old CPs I have
>>96628432You're right. GW should have given the Dark Eldar a full refresh instead of a character. That definitely would have made more money.
>>96628399I wonder which relationship in RT features more sadomasochistic bloodplay, Marzipan or Kibbles
>Make a cup of coffee"What a nice morning, I can't wait to see what my fellow anons on 40kg are talking about today">It's all manga porn
>>96628452First time on this website?
>>96628452We must be better men and post our models to recover this general
>>96628463Here is 1 (one) model
>Oh no the paintfags bought out my tranny eldar?!!!Cool, no one cares. Now when are the Marine Captain and Terminator preorders?
>>96628463Here’s a wip of my kommandos.
>>96628463i posted a model earlier i wasn't given even a single (You)fuck you
>>96628463Good idea.
>>96628472Maybe we will finally see a Golden Demon winning Dark Eldar for the first time
>>96628477I wasn't sure what i was looking at int he thumbnail and the full image stunned me, its looking beautiful anon
>>96628481
Salamanders or Raptors - which one should I choose for a Firstborn-only army?
>>96628479>for the first time
>>96628476post it again, and I’ll give it a (You) :)
>>96628399>Women>Playing a text based rpg with a gazillion number crunching as statsI assure you the 0.0001% of real, untranny, women who played RT didn't go far enough to reach Marz, or even know how to unblock him. Even less would buy DEldar minis, if they collect minis in the first place.Deldar minis does not look like an army of tall, lithe goth daddies with flowing long black hair.
>>96628463Me and my friend are painting models in this very moment (I'm actually doing bases, but still)
>>96628494You might not realize this, but it has a co-op mode where women can play through with their partners.
>>96628494CRPGs are big now anon.I will never understand the number of people on here that never interact with women having any idea what women do for fun
>>96628477>>96628487ok well at least we can confirm it's not the usual suspect, he doesn't own an airbrush and definitely wouldn't be able to paint such clean diamond pattern
>>96628502Kids these days. Don't remember girls being obsessed with turn-based RPGs like Final Fantasy even when gaming was in its infancy
>>96628506...b-but the wood grains! Two people couldn't possibly both have wood panelling on their walls.
>>96628494>>96628502CRPGs have been big since at least Dragon Age Origins in 2009, that's why i'm confusedCRPGs have been a mainstream game genre for some time now
>>96628501If their partner is autistic enough to drag her into playing a warhammer RPG game, then she has already been exposed plenty to warhammer, and would have seen the dark elf daddies already. Rogue Trader has zero influence on the DEldar fanbase.
>>96628507You’re in your 30s and have yet to kiss a girl, you know nothing.
>>96628514Doesn't matter because the fan art does. Similar to the Yvraine X Gilman meme, the art spreads the meme much farther and faster than the source material ever could
>>96628494The Rogue Trader CRPG actually has a bunch of variety in it in terms of DeldarThere are jetbikes for transports, lots of kabalites, at least 2 archons, vect himself, beastmasters and wyches you fight in the arena, sslyths, scourges, mandrakes, all manner of pain engines, grotesques and even a haemonculus who is a pretty significant secondary antagonist. They've even got a solitaire.
Literally me For real for real
>>96628519My kids will be very upset to learn this. They think I'm a wizard.
>>96628522It's very funny how much of the squatted resin range was featured in that game just before getting deleted.
>>96628502Bold, very bold of you to assume I dont interact with women.Women dont play CRPGs.They play Animal Crossing, Pokemon, Stardew Valley. If its an RPG they play JRPGs because the system is less autistic. Something like Ni No Kuni or Persona.Some play action games for the husbando effect like Yakuza or DMC but also because action games dont have the dull, monotonous autism of choosing which inane perk to take after a level up: the one that gives 3% extra damage after a succesful dodge, or one that gives 15 extra movement after a specific buff is applied.The mechaism of RT is too ganular and crunchy.The most crunch they can tolerate is Baldirs Gate 3. That's where the "CRPG popularity spike" comes from btw, a game with superb voice acting, detailed character customisation, and relatively simple mechanics.No woman plays Pathfinder or RT games, its all BG3.
>>96628477That’s really good. Troupe master?
>>96628525>Cool kitbash wasted to make a manga character referenceThe forhead chainsaw being downwards is fucking lame. Its has to be straight up like a rhino horn that juggernaught kit has
What time do the preorders go live?
>>96628541anon they went live like 3 hours agomost stores are sold out of the limited edition codex and malys alreadylot of places all out of the RSR battlebox too
>>96628463I can never look at my-wifes-son kratos with a straight face.
>>96628532I think you are deluded and poisoned by internet rhetoric if you think women do not play CRPGsI do not think you know the depths of female autism
>>96628541His torso is too short he looks like a reworked LoV model.
crazy how the dark eldar stuff got sold out faster than the space wolves stuff
>>96628566He’s not wrong. Women don’t play them, but they’ll insert into its fandoms.
>>96628532BG3 also basically hurls romance options at you
>>96628576Thanks for reminding me why the games dogshit
>>96628580You know you can just avoid it, it's a roleplaying game.
>>96628566>internet rhetoricwhat rhetoric? They're not lesser gamers for playing these games. CRPG games just dont appeal to them unless its BG3.
>>96628571That doesn't tell us anything much about their popularity unless you also know how much was produced.
Custodian expansion when?
>>96628587>Hey anon, wanna train some magic?>Sure Gale, let me see what this magic is about. Its a nice occasion for me to know you since we just met.>I want to fuck you right now.Yeah no, you have to ACTIVELY dodge romance in this game.
>>9662860030k will probably update their range into plastic
when will my world eateries get the second half of their army
>>9662860614th edition
The world eaters are retarded.
>>96628606Next edition. I doubt they'd get a pity hero twice in a row
>>96628600custodians with only bolters always looked stupidguardian spears having bolters was stupid since the original lore was that they had lasers which makes much more sense
>>96628602I'm so glad that I treated Gale like the nerd he was and unintentionally avoided all that.
>>96628631>I doubt they'd get a pity hero twice in a rowhaha that surely hasnt happened for several factions in multiple editions in a row. What? grey knights? what about them?
>>96628634They've always looked dumb as fuck. The fact that GW made the banana cone head helmets not look shit is a miracle. I think bolter only custards look cool though those helmets are great
>>96628643bolter custodes are baller shame their rules are fucking trash lmao
>>96628477Hi, Edge
When will Tau receive a new battlesuit?
>>96628668That is too good to be his, chill out
>>96628492Is that suppose to be snow and ice at the bottom, or Scourge guano?
>>96628666>one of the golden guard>wears bronze and silverWtf?
>>96628680Mandrake cum.
>>96628685They were silver for a long while, pic related
>>96628399Im built like that deldar and smile like that and im totally into that but I play tau and guard and only date woman poorer than me as opposed to rich rogue trader dynasty ladies
>>96628690>seen this picture a thousand times>only now see the big ass fucking eye in the background
>>96628690Did everyone in this room die
>>96628703We have no confirmed surviors but a few custodians and sons of horus/ black legion guys still kicking around isn't too much a stretch. Well CSM are easy to jutify than 10k year old custards don't think we have any confirmed to be from the HH in 40k
>>96628703No, they were sent upgalaxy to live on a farm.
>>96628705Amon Tauromachian might still be around as Longinus but it's more likely to be someone with the same title.
>>96628641Pay no attention to Thousand Sons.GW certainly doesn't.
>>96628677No, it is his.>>96623646It's not even subtle. That faggot never left this place at all.
Who is this guy who you are upset about nowis dcsloppa not just short for decalsloppasomeone explain all this to me please
>>96628477this fucking sucks
>metathread bullshit
>>96628758Also to add there's circumstantial evidence that points to Edge either being a janny or he is friends with one.And this stems from the fact that you can easily catch a 24 hour ban if you ever mention his reddit accounts name. And it is specifically 24 hours because those bans cannot be appealed because they are less than 3 days long.
>>96628705How long do custodes live for?
>>96628766If you don't want people to talk about you lolcow tier faggotry you do on a public moroccan fishing forum, don't do dumb shit.
>>96628771Common beleif is that they're all truly immortal unless killed in combat. But we have no idea really, most custards today were not around in the HH and they are always passivelty recruiting from Terra noble families so their is a constant attrition rate coming from somewhere.
>>96628781Oh okay. Custodes lore seems to be constantly shifting from the outside that I kind of just ignore it.>they're recluses>they die off because they do constant live fire training against monsters>they've been doing things behind the scenes actually>they recruit from the highborn sons of terra>also highborn daughters even though we didn't mention it before>they're naked>no they aren't >some of them can be naked, as a treat
>>96628074That… might actually be a good idea Just need to find a way to make them more Egyptian themed
>>96628758I have no idea about any of this bullshit, but he posted cool models and you did not so...Sorry that happened to you? Now let's post more models.
>>96628792Fair enough, but theres more to them>Could just be normal soldiers and the idea of being gene enhanced by the Emperor personally is the result of ten thousand years of chinese whispers >Actually they are gene enhanced but are eternally in mourning for the dead emperor so they never ever leave the Imperial Palace>Best soliders in the galaxy are wasted as sentry guards for a literal corpse
>>96628491>Both fought in Badab WarI see what's going on here Anon. I always recommend people to pick a Chapter that is not a First Founding one for the sake of variety.
>>96626922Actually thinking of using the HH marines and kitbashing them together with the rubricsAll i really need to keep are the heads, shoulder pads, and the loincloths to see how they fit together
The time has come. James has decided my army will live for another day and I'm about to make it everyone's problem.
Have YOU preordered dark eldar?
>>96628865I’d sooner start orkz
>>96628865They sold out in about 10 minutes in the EU. Malys shop orders apparently are getting shorted everywhere too as bad as the Farsight release three years ago.
>>96628833Should have been Kabals of Komorragh
>>96628888None of those units are Kabals
>>96628873That's not an orc, that's just a green elf.
>>96628900If you make a few steps back you can have my same realisation of how people are once again blending elves, goblins, gnomes and all manner of other fantastical creatures back into interchangeable designs, just how it was at the start.
>>96628758>even going and starting the short lived "you started 7 years ago" meme where he referenced Ben's reddit post that was 7 years oldoh so thats the origins of that! learning something new every day here in 40kg>People instantly noticed in the said screenshot he was logged in with his account and lo behold it was named Edgecoc.that is hilarious, just blew up in the guy's face
>>96628534Yeah that'd be my nitpick as well but I wouldn't say it's wasted on a manga reference. It's obviously inspired but it is adapted well and fits 40k at large, there is nothing jarring about it.
>>96628865I CAN'T FUCKING FIND A MALYS
Had a dream last night where I squeezed a pimple on my waist and an old 80's/90/s sculpt space marine came out, but it was really soft like it was made of clay and I squished it into a cube. Wtf did James mean by this?
>>96628960They'll make more
>>96628873>orks are like tolkien it has to be like tolkien or its bad!!!!
>>96628979>uh yeah of course orcs should look like bara twinks with pink hair there is nothing wrong with that, you nogame secondary! anyway I got my invite for the 20 man piss party, want to come?
Preorder is up on US shop and everything is still available.Get it while it lasts.
>>96628969I had a weirdly somewhat similar dream recently. I was at a flea market and a guy was selling his old warhammer collection, but in the collection there was the tactical squad you posted, but the armor of the marines was completely made out of flesh, as in that the armor became their living skin. On the box they were called “Gel Marines” and in the dream I immediately understood they were meant to be an old khorne worshipping renegade warband made back in the early days of Warhammer 40K.
why do are dark elf models some of the coolest looking in the game but the faction on the tabletop is putrid shit? whar did dark elves do to deserve this ?
>>96629011>why do are dark elf modelsGMS
>>96629005>al that for $600This economy is well and truly fucked
>>96628979orks are not actually like tolkien.warhammer won the spot in the zeitgeist about orcs, or rather world of warcraft did.
>>96629011People have been doing on and off pretty well with them all edition despite a rotten index so I'm not sure what you're upset about. They were an extremely complicated faction that got shoved through a cheese grater for the simplification of 10e and never quite made the translation properly. Now they're insanely complicated again and have dozens of options in play, so I'm sure all the faction specialists will make them sing once again even if they did lose a whole bunch of resin units.
>>96628979Trve...
>>96629022The extra funny part is that is like 1000 points of models. It's barely even half of an army.
>>96629025Warcraft orks are warhammer orks. It was GW that made them green with tusks. But Blizzard being a yank company made orks black people, then gay and then noble savage shit
>>96628979if you’re removing stuff from the source material, then you need to replace or twist it in a way that makes it interesting. otherwise you just got green ‘umies with an underbite.
>>96629045Indeed
>>96629039how is jetblackrider handling this official art of malys
>>96629011because 40k is written and balanced around marines, while eldar are by design glass cannons, and since the game is poorly designed it has no real interaction between parts beyond sheer firepower and withstanding it.Meaning glass cannon armies are only ever extremely overpowered or extremely underpowered with little to no in-between, more often leaning to the latter because when one faction is too strong, all other players whine, while when a faction is too weak, the whining ones are a minority, so gw has no incentive in rushing to fix it.These fundamental problems cannot be addressed without significantly reworking how warhammer as a game works.
>>96629039God GW can't do dark eldar women faces. Its not like its monstrous on purpose theres clearly and effort to make her attractive that failed.
>>96629072>Its not like its monstrous on purposein this case, yes, it is.the only question is whether it's the artist's choice to make her ugly on purpose, or the demand to draw her ugly comes from the brief from gw.
>>96629063Just drawing her own art of her instead as usual and pretty pleased.
>>96629039Here's the real art
>>96627250
>>96629101No, here's the real art
The dark eldar should look like supermodels on drugs, ranging from coked up and looking unhinged but mostly normal to full meth/crackheads
>>96627114glitchlings I think would fit well enough
>Nid players got really mad that the Norn wasn't bigger than every Knight>Custodes players are giving their models leg-lengthening surgeryAre tehse two the most insecure about the height of their models?
>>96629131I think lore wise they get parched in between feedings and then become beautiful again as they top up on suffering. So they are the most beautiful in the most terrible circumstances. Psykers and others with witch sight can always see them as the twisted hollow souls that they are though even when they are beautiful
>>96629138Space Marines are the vast majority of the player base fans and have always been obsessed with height since before primaris were even a thing. It's not really a wonder why concerns of scale creep have permeated into other faction fan bases too.
Tyranids needs a named Epic Character who can order around other Nids and speak directly to other races.I have submitted pic related for consideration.
>>96629168best gw can do is this
>>96629168Only if it is less of a Sarah Kerrigan and more of a Gravemind or something. Maybe the Brethren Moon of Hive Fleet Tiamat's secret megastructure.
>>96629157If their souls were empty, slaaneshi daemons would not be able to see them throw webway, retard
>>96629168>Tyranids needs a named Epic Character who can order around other Nids and speak directly to other races.Fucking lame
>>96629197>>96629168Wow. What other factions do you have ideas for I'm curious about the psychology behind the worst takes possible
>>96629168You ever read or play Metro 2033 anon? spoilers but the villains the dark ones, human mutants who use psyker abilities to break peoples minds in the beginning of the game were actually just trying to talk to humans and were peaceful and kind but were accidently killing everyone they tried to talk to. That's how I picture a nid trying to talk to someone, ripping them apart or breaking their mind if it tried.
>>96629168They had Zoats to communicate to other races in the hopes that they can get the galaxy to open their borders, so the Tyranids proper could wipe out the galaxy easily. Turns out the Milky Way is full of complete xenophobic schizophrenics, and so they realized just brute forcing their way in was the only way to go.
>>96627787>2013 was 20 years agoHoly shit time flies
>>96629199Their souls are diminished though, at least compared to other Eldar. Slaanesh is constantly sipping away at them and the webway does actually slow the effect while they are within it. That's why they can operate in the Pariah Nexus without as many ill effects and are harder for other Psykers to detect approaching.
>>96629215I see why they get compared to jews now
>>96628600custards are probably getting the following in 30K>New Custard models (Maybe Hetaeron Guard?)>Aquillon Terminators >A new character mini.>Maybe a jetbike or two>Grav Tank/Grav Carrier dual kit like the Malcador/Dracosian kit the Solar Auxilia got last year>If we're lucky a plastic Custodes Contemptor Dread or even a Telemon
>>96626761>the twinsgod twins and twincest are so hot. make them lolis and I'm done for
>>96629052but nudnd did, they made them caravanning mexican gypsies. you might not like it, but it is a new interesting thing. People dont hate nudnd because of the warcraft orks, they hate it because its an overwhelmingly shit product. as >>96629025 says warcraft won the zeitgeist about orks, people prefer the noble savage orks to the faceless enemy orks. its not that there arent faceless enemies, its just that role has been shifted to other races so that goblinoids and orkoids can hold a more neutral or even misunderstood but good role among the races. People try to make it out like the dungeon crawl is dead, but zombies and skeletons and gnolls all still exist as explicitly evil faceless enemies into nuDND.warhammer orks, 40k and fantasy, dont have tits or cool hot guys I want to be so they just have less popular appeal.
>>96628074>>96628793these look good and closer to their Automata from HH
>>96629209nta but the one of the few cool things about DS3 was the sentient eldritch moons that ate planets. A giant psychic space brain could be pretty kino in 40k. could tie in to the neurothrope stuff.
>>96629250When are the mechanicus getting the 28mm version of the jetpack big robot?
>>96629260literally never
>>96629126still weird
>>96629168fuck noAlien was already just further ruined with this shit
>>96629264Why not :(
>>96629245gnolls exist as nothing but furfag bait nowadays
>>96629209Not him but I’d like Necrons to get their flesh back. Maybe they can begin worshipping one of the chaos gods, and they’ll be granted a boon in the form of becoming Necrontyr again, or they can ally with Fabius Bile and he will find a way to clone new bodies for them.
>>96629209Craftworld Eldar should become suddenly immune to Slaanesh with no actual explanation.Even within the setting they don't know how, they just suddenly no longer have to worry about Slaanesh, who is equally baffled.Due to this change, Craftworld Eldar now no longer need to restrain their psychic abilities, which they promptly utilize to become incredibly strong and train to be exceedingly potent in unarmed combat (as all of their melee weapons now break due to their enhanced strength). On top of this, each Eldar is now capable of projecting psychic energy blasts of varying power even without being Seers. As a side effect, Eldar who train especially hard undergo minor physical changes like spontaneously changing hair colors in combat.To top this off however, Yriel dubs himself the Crown Prince of Eldar, and he and his Corsairs take to conquering planets for the purpose of selling them to the highest bidders.

>>96629275Incidentally its /tg/ content from the past couple years has been quite nice.
>>96629275I liked that she clicked in the compound and the alien heard her when it was outside and in the middle of the jungleThose acoustics must be crazy
>>96629168HorribleNo they don't Hivemind Ayylmaos speaking directly is a MONUMENTAL task to execute well, more often than not it is done horribly and falls flat to leave an impressionOG gravemind appearance was "okay" but subsequent appearances were really shitThe only decent example I can think of is ORZ from Star Control and only because of a completely off the wall vibe that they deliver, being goofy, friendly parrotfish that talk funny and are are hard to understand, yet with a horrible truth beneath>>96629175Abominable, even worse>>96629209Agreed
I'm looking to kitbash a Raider into a Ravager. Any suggested bitz proxies for these turrets?
>>96629281The problem for the necrons is not creating bodies. It's transferring themselves into them. What do they even have that can be transferred? They have no souls. They are a digital engram recorded in a semi-sentient metal alloy. They are essentially energy beings as much as the Ctan ever were. Copies of (parts of) the minds of an entire species that is now extinct and whose souls have long been consumed and unwound. Even if they found a way to transfer their minds onto another being, organic creatures without souls in the 40K universe wither and die or become possessed.
>>96629309A somewhat elegant solution I heard proposed was using a couple of the hanger-ons from the Raider crew and just equipping them with dark lances on either side instead of the turrets. You could magnetize them for easy removal to go back to being a raider again. That's actually how the old ravager used to be in 3rd Edition with two side gunners just hanging out on the two edge platforms.

>>96629275>furtherI can't possibly imagine the mindset of someone who tries to enjoy a franchise like alien without heavily vetting the entries and elements to enjoy, or discard, or rework.
>>96628873>>96629327>The elfication of Orcs Grim
>>96629342Elder Scrolls was just ahead of the game I guess. Maybe the dwarves are all turning into elves next.
>>96629168I don't like it. Instead it'd be better that GW shattered the hivemind and made it so that every hivefleet has their own hivemind making actual in-fighting happen between nids.
>>96629275this shit looks ass but Alien: Romulus was really good until barron trump showed up. I give respect to ridley scott for making some truly amazing movies in his time, but sit the fuck down dude come on. it literally bumped the entire movie down from an A+ to a B+ for me>>96629333this
>>96629039>>96629379the artist is south east asian, maybe that's just what they see when they look at normal people?
>>96629297*Orz* would love to share *the sauce* with *friends* who skip *far*? Don't be *no fun* or else *the party will end* too soon! Androsynth were *no fun* at all.https://youtu.be/UEEES8BeNCg
>>96629309>>96629325Huh. You know what, I bet that I could get that bit that covers the Thermal Cannon on one of my old Knight sprues, greenstuff a connection to the brace below and have a Dark Lance Kabalite crouching behind it with the gun through the gap.
>>96629406Kino idea
>>96628477>>96628487Yikes lmao
>>96629381I really like this idea. not only because it will increase faction in-fighting (40K’s bread and butter), but also because it implies that the 40K galaxy is so unbelievably toxic and cursed that the monster aliens who have had presumably no problems consuming other galaxies got their whole hivemind destroyed just after a couple centuries of dealing with the Milky Way.
>>96628833I bought that box, but only because GW was refusing to allow anyone to stock the jetbikes.>>96629168That GW visual guide book outright said that the Nids are evolving into individuals due to ever diversifying strains coupled with memories surviving death. Won't be long before that's the case, especially if that 40k End Times leak turns out to be true.
What do CWE usually do with captured humans? Find the nearest Imperium planet and dump them there? Send eldar jihad videos to the High Lords?Lust provoking image for attention.
>>96629452>especially if that 40k End Times leak turns out to be true.Haven't heard of that. Where'd you see that?
>>96629452Yeah, funny thing is I actually bought it years ago for extra jet bikes as well. The hellions have mostly sat on my shelf this edition, but now it looks like it's time to finally dust them off and hit the table with them again.
>>96629381>>96629430Remnants of Leviathan consuming other scattered remnants because it's so bootyblasted it's trying to create specifically anti-Blood Angel Nids even to the detriment of the Nids as a whole.
>>96628477>>96628487I think this model looks genuinely beautiful and probably took a lot of effort. Bravo anon.
>>96629458Valrak told me and he’s got insider sources.
>>96629452>40k End Times leak turns out to be true.Meds now.
>>96629458I have no idea what he is talking about but 40K already had their end times and they just rolled on into the 42nd millennia and Age of Gulliman without any further major upheavals
>>96628477What kits did you use to make this??
>>96629463That's pretty funny.
>>96629453They mostly dont take prisoners
>>96629467Got the specific video where he says that?
>>96629452>Nids are evolving into individuals due to ever diversifying strains coupled with memories surviving deathYeah they want to sell more old one or red terror type creatures, they are not making Kerrigans.
>>96629485Eldar jihad videos it is then.
>>96628229>>96628189thanks for the write-ups.>Raiders are not that useful in Kartel because the firepower of Kabalites has been reduced and it's very expensive to ferry them around.>You are also not going to get as much mileage out of Kabalites in Raiders as you might hope because Raiders do not have the cabal Or blades for hire keywords and so cannot benefit from the Detachment rule.bummed that raiders full of kabalites aren't very good in the kabalite detachment. are they any good in RSR or SSA?sounds like the best use here is to sticky the home objective, take dark lance potshots, and serve as a backline deterrent.>Well, first of all I will warn you that Cartel does not play well at 1K pointsalso bummer. should I run SSA at 1k? ><various unit suggestions>i have 2 (old) combat patrols, drazhar, 3 scourges, and a venom. I dont want to buy more until I have an idea of what kind of 2k army I want to play.malys with an informant network archon and 3x10 HotA sounds like it could be fun.but I really love the boats! thats what drew me to the army.back to tinkering.
>>96629489He told me personally. We go out on friend dates together, and he’ll be releasing the new video a couple weeks.
>>96629452>That GW visual guide book outright said that the Nids are evolving into individuals due to ever diversifying strains coupled with memories surviving death. Won't be long before that's the case, especially if that 40k End Times leak turns out to be true.This >>96629491, the section was talking about the current pseudo-characters like OOE and Deathleaper and other lesser known named nids.
>>96629245>they made them caravanning mexican gypsiesThat isn't interesting though.
>>96629458Ignore the other guy who decided to answer for me. I heard it here, someone was citing someone else and people didn't know what to make of it. I think the leaker was sorta accurate? At least that was the jist of what I recall.
the hh models actually seem to small for proxying
>>9662951040k end times are not among the leaks from the guy with leakers that had been accurate.
>>96629491>they are not making KerrigansIt suggests they're on the path to becoming true individuals.
>>96629497It's worth mentioning that Gunboats are really, REALLY good in KabalThere are some point changes but if you want a super punchy and Kabal themed list, you could try this.>Drazhar>Archon w/ Webway Awl>2x10 Kabalites>2x5 Incubi>1 Raider>5Heavy Weapon Scourges>1 Ravager>1 VenomThis lets you split a squad of Kabalites with the Venom, and then turn 1 have Drazhar and his 5 boys get into it while your Archon waits above with their 5 Incubi in the webway.4 Dark Lance Scourges + some DL ravagers is probably enough anti tank, and you've then got the Raider that can fit the other 10 Kabalites and do some objective holding.Drazhar + Incubi using strats will melt almost anything, the Archon has a powerful jumpscare ability, and you've probably got enough firepower to deal with infantry, especially with Sustained Hits.
>>96629524if someone gives a shit theyre someone you don't want to play with or against anyway
>>96629524Perfect for firstborn though.
>>96629536more for myself, i would be bugged by the inconsistency in my own army
>>96629531True individuals in terms of being battle species (well individual) in form and armament. A swarm lord like being in terms of being one of a kind bio-form. They are not saying they are expecting an individual seperate from the hivemind
>>96629533why split the kabs with a venom instead of loading drazhar and incubi into it? is delivering 2 units with the raider simply better?at 1k, i'm thinking a core ofArchon (Warlord)Webway Awl (Enhancement)Incubi x10RaiderKabalite Warriors x10Scourges w Dark LanceRavager w Dark LanceRavager w Disintegrator Cannonand then fill the rest out with eitherVenom + Drazhar + move 5 Incubi from Webway Archonor2x5 Scourges w Shardcarbine
>>96629491>they are not making Kerrigans.Yet*
>>96629555Oh right, I should've known when they said "actual individuals" they actually just meant a rare but still mass producible not-individual.
>>96629578You split the Kabs because it gives you more units to do actions or control objectives with. What you can do is - >DeploymentDeploy 5 Kabs on one side of the boardDeploy a Venom aggressivelyDeploy Drazhar out of LoS>Turn 1Disembark the Kabs from the Venom and have them run to screen a home objectiveRun Drazhar and the Incubi INTO the VenomThe Venom can still move, so move the Venom ready for a charge with Drazhar turn 2Doing this loses you very little but gives you more bodies to do actions or hold points, as well as still getting Draz up there to contest a point.
>>96629287
i cant get over how laughably bad the Iron hands combat patrol box is. GW are doing it on purpose at this point.> doesnt even include vehicle in a vehicle focused chapter
>>96629631YOUR JOB IS TO HELP GW CLEAR STOCK THAT DOESN'T SELL, YOU FUCKING PLEB BUY THE FUCKING BOX ALREADY
Oh yeah it's jank time. I'm cracking this covens detachment no matter how bad it is. Just ordered my combat patrol so I can max out my pain engine collection.
>>96629639i will not. I might pickup our new char tho
>>96629631I know nobody would ever want the turrets, but wouldn’t it make more sense for the Imperial Fists, the fortification focused chapter to get the turrets instead?
>>96629631Pro-tip bro: You can actually buy one of the OTHER 'chapter combat patrols' and use them to make Iron Warriors
>>96629659> use them to make Iron Warriorsim not an incel tho. i was thinking about picking up the imperial fist CP, but then i realised id rather just wait for the assault terminators to release seperately.
>>96629596oh, that's cool.desu i'm kinda stuck on the deep strike utility! I picked DEldar as a foil to my GK - infantry blitz vs vehicle blitz, y'know? I guess I dont need to deep strike every single vehicle...>>96629650definitely gonna try to buy the tetsubo.
>>96629587Anon that whole paragraph is just talking about bio-forms and becoming incresingly diverese interms of battle species and not a mass produced set of clones in weaponry. Like this is basic reading comprehension bro there's no mention of the hive mind or seperate minds among the nid race. Its not talking about Kerrigans but Old One eyes, the brainac nid that ate a whole infinity circuit and shit like that
Guys, not only the preorders but almost the entire Drukhari range just sold out in the US.I think GW might have fucked up.
>>96629674Half their shit is sold out all the time
>>96629674dude this faction is getting dumped in 11th
>>96629674excellent the old stock is sold, they can squat them now until the range refresh next edition
>>96628364Even if they don't play, painting a small handful of fun little low effort kitbashes is a fun thing. Even if they just use them as a base for something later on, it would be cool to have a big collage of everyones little scatter and objectives
>>96628364Most of you fags shit on the game all the time, you're not exacly encouraging anyone to play lmao
>>96629674>I think GW might have fucked up.oh no surely not
Working on adding a GK as my DW termi libby.Sometimes I wonder if I should add primaris minis to my army.The meta calls to me but my guys are all firstborn.Damn my tism
>>96628491Wow Salamanders are hot!
>>96629721>that helmet do grey knights even use standard marine stuff
>>96629275I actually have been loving it, other than the scenes where a gay man is wearing an Alien Costume.
>>96629752not really, they got their own patterns and forge world
>>96629721I think having your models all bring stuff you think is cool is more satisfying for my tism
>>96629674>We released a Dark Eldar Codex and people started BUYING DARK ELDAR, how could this happen?
>>96629773Normally GW tries to restock a faction at least a little bit before they release a new codex for them. They didn't even try for this one.
>>96629752Not running it as a GKJust a termi librarian in my DW army
>>96629787it couldn't be that they did restock and they still sold out?
>>96629674nigga their entire webstore is eternally sold out. this is nothing new you newfag. why do you think they keep raising prices? because retards KEEP BUYING IT.
