Repostan my forgefiend I finished today. What are you working on /40kg/? Post some models, finished or otherwise.
>>96681332money would be the reason why they should port the rules to 40ki want to buy the tonks but if i can't play with them what's the point
god i hate elves
God I love elves
he nearly done
>>96681351This fucking sucks lmao
>>96681350That's fucking grotesque
>>96681341How did you do the gold/brass?
>>96681351That looks great
>>96681365>>96681351samefag
>>96681359No, this grotesque
>>96681363
Damn, girls don't have anything good to say about Tau.
>>96681351very nice
>>96681322>TQJungle and beach bases. Love them, don’t have the balls to make them.>>96681341Finished my freehand on the dudes form earlier
>>96681372NTA but you can also use Wyldwood and skip the oil wash.
>>96681351Looking good. You should layer the shoulder though. It's too muted.
What Armies are you expecting for the Christmas Boxes?
>>96681350>described as tall, lithe, athletic supermodels>ruin them with retarded hyper-shitNever ceases to amaze me just how awful your average coomer's taste is.
>>96681322Would a 40k manga work if the story and art are serviceable?I say serviceable because this is black library we are dealing with.
>>96681322>What I'd the most underrated basing schemeMartian redI wish I'd used it for my Orks instead of badlands
>>96681404You realize there have been 40k comics for decades now, right?
>>96681371They're the same picture
>>96681341forgefiend love
>>96681404literally any media worksthe universe is so varied anything and everything would work
>>96681396CSM with Abaddon or Lord DiscordantUltramarines with GuillimanTau with FarsightEmperor's Children with FulgrimMight be a wild Eldar box with the Avatar in there somewhere but I doubt it.
>tfw Tau vs Imperium fights are the only time two conventional armies actually fight using conventional tactics
>>96681411before and after shots
>>96681419>Might be a wild Eldar box with the Avatar in there somewhere but I doubt it.not doing a Krieg box seems like leaving money on the table but between the army box and the combat patrol they've probably been fleeced enough. You get all of their plastic models between both don't you?
>>96681365>>96681375>>96681388ty anonsyeah i plan to go back over the lilac sash, glazing has just recently clicked with me and i have only glazed the cape so far. one i have painted the clasp on the sash i wll only need to shade one or two things and then i can edge highlight everything. ty for frencomments
>>96681406I looked it up. Can’t believe I didn’t look it up first. Thanks.
>was gonna collect two units of the Wraithguard/blades and a Spiritseer>decide to add a Wraithlord for a Combat Patrol sized force>the model is from 4th EditionGeez the refresh this edition got me forgetting Eldar still has old ass models. I kind of want to get one regardless for the novelty.
"Anyone who runs is an Imperial! Anyone who stands still is a well-disciplined Imperial!"
What do eldar eat? Can they get fat? I heard they poop crystals.
>>96681430>not doing a Krieg boxThey just got a limited Combat Patrol but yeah I could see an Astra Militarum Box as the 5th one.
>>96681444They eat poop and poop crystals.
>>96681451I see. That explains a lot.
>>96681341Getting my stalkers done
>>96681433>>96681388>>96681375>>96681365>>96681351Imagine samefagging this hard
>>96681465(you)
>>96681351Is this your first EC? Nice scheme. I might steal it. Still have the launch box in my closet waiting for it's turn.
>>96681439FILTHY FUCKING XENO! FOR THE EMP-
>>96681438the model holds up though, why bother changing itrip boxnaught
>>96681474I look like this I say this This is me in the picture
>>96681341The new W+ subscripion model gave me an idea for the spooky October collage submission, they just arrived this afternoon so I'm building them presently.
>>96681469yeah it's my first one from the launch box. if you do want to use the scheme then be ready to do 4 thin layers of vallejo warlord purple for all the pink armour
>>96681483Thinking about subbing for that model. I hate Elves but it looks great. Fuck you Elves.
>>96681487Well not exactly like it but I like the darker vibe they got.
>>96681491The same thing we do every night, Pinky.Try to Imperialize Chaos.
>>96681497oh right, yeah the pink armour on the box art scheme was just too bright for me and the way it contrasted with the black parts/steel trim, it made it look really punky/rave and i wanted a more opulent/decadent scheme
>>96681341Finished this second model I've painted now without washes. Might do another assassin next
>>96681521Looks neat, is it an exodite?
>>96681491You have shit taste in holowhores
Dear heretics, if the imperium is so bad then why did I just shoot you in the face like 600 times?
>>96681543You need to lurk moar
>>96681476If a refresh were to happen, it could open the possibility of making them dual build as a newly introduced Wraithseer. I think it’d be neat.
>>96681483I wish wraith guard didnt have bowling pins for helmets
>>96681545Why? So I can see more posts about that australian slag?
>>96681438The Wraithlord kit is fine. My only complaint is that the wrists are super thin and don't have a socket to fit into on the arm, so they seem like they would snap off easily without pinning them.
>>96681553Plastic glue melts the plastic and makes any pinning unnecessary.
>>96681543That's not very nice.
>>96681547I think the helmets are the best part.
>>96681585Maybe. But it is the truth.
>>96681567A thin connection point is a thin connection point. Especially since the older kits somehow feel more brittle than newer kits.
>>96681606Your warped sense of reality is far from the truth, now post models
>>96681617I have no such issues with my Necrons and their older models. Even with thin contact point kitbashes. Like the Cryptek I'm working on with a old lord lord body. I'd sooner snap off his staff than break his wrist.
>>96681341been redoing the silver armor on some previous characters with my new recipe. really liking how its going.
>>96681636
>>96679128Nobody posted a source so I guess this is a made up story, but there is a similar bit in Master of Mankind. >There was more – somehow, the lobotomised woman’s very last thoughts had been of her human life, and the weeping children that had been pulled from her hands as she was hauled away, screaming, on her way to reprocessing. Alpha-Rho-25 discarded the data as irrelevant: a tediously emotional misfire of a dying, imperfect biological engine.
>>96681491>What's everyone's hobby plans this weekend?I bought my birthday gift early since I wont pass by the lgs in the day of. Other than that Im gonna keep working on my october collage models since Im feeling super excited and inspired for it.
>>96681651Someone on 4chan lied???
>>96681544>trying to flirt with the cute and evil xenos boy>adepta sanctimonious won’t shut up about itIt’s like being around a real like evangelical or tradcath
>>96681651There's also the whole "35 is considered an unusually long life expectancy in the Imperium (it's what Ultramar has)"
>>96681480Omg is your head ok
It is interesting to think about how on most imperial worlds, the kind seen in the Cain books, they never encounter any of the serious shit in 40k so the emperor is like god is in Christianity. Just the guy you learned about in Sunday school, maybe you dated an emperor botherer.Now imagine the psychic awakening and suddenly actual miracles start happening. People would flip their shit
>>96681438The Wraithlord model is honestly great for its age. It's only real flaw is the legs need to be cut up if you want any pose besides standing, but you can get some damn nice posing out of it if you put some work into it.
>>96681687Flesh and Steel has a part set in a Servitor factory for a similar grimdark bit.
>>96681687I choose to believe that the Imperium’s short life expectancy is like how it was in the medieval times, as in when you take out child infancy mortality (or Imperial Guard mortality) it’s actually an average 65-70. Basically if you can avoid the war you live a pretty average amount (you won’t avoid the war)
>>96681422Tau ain't even got artillery
>>96681687They love to put throwaway lines like that in stuff like the Calgar comic (that’s where it comes from.) It annoys me because it’s usually grimderp that they put in to say see look it’s still grimdark even as the tone shifts.Although I suppose you could steelman that one as not being grimderp by saying it’s that lot because so many people die in childhood. That’s why real life societies has low life expectancy, babies died due to lack of modern medicine while adults lived full lives most of the time
>>96681444From the descriptions in the novels, it sounds like Fantasy elf food honestly, they're not vegetarians either. There's a Drukhari Archon feast where they're snacking on seafood. They have wine too
>>96681665Happy early birthday anon, good luck with your spooky model.
>>96681695>>96681700Here's the thing:I do believe that it's with child mortality. But that's still fucking horrifying. For THAT many children to be dying in childhood is beyond shitty.
>>96681706thanks, Im excited and I hope it turns out how I envision it.
>>96681710the thing is its a combination of shit right? you've got child mortality PLUS the losses of the Red Army in WW2 on steroids PLUS general poor health due to environmental disaster and industrial toxins. all that BARELY offset by the lucky few that either get turned into Space Marines or super augmented tech priests or have the money for immortality through rejuv treatments.
>>96681710It’s sad yeah but Ultramar could be pretty nice to live in general and it still be true. Even the children of Roman patricians and emperors used to die.We really underestimate how much human civilization was transformed by a small number of technologies, antibiotics in particular. And guess what…antibiotics are losing their effectiveness due to evolution among diseases. The hand of Nurgle at work….
>Priming outside>Starting to get dark out>Make a friend
>>96681480looking good champ
>>96681727you know what you have to do
>>96681727buy a slug or snail model and make him your army's animal mascot.
>>96681727Well now Slugs gotta be a part of chapter name.
>>96681693Shrinkwrapping on their coveralls before the surgery seems a bit counterproductive.
>>96681687Life expectancy idiots never take into account that child mortality really fucks with the number. Having a bunch of ones and zeros thrown into your mix seriously fucks with the average. They'd know that if they didn't get so many fucking zeros on their mathematics exams.
>>96681744Hey don’t blame them, that’s what the DAOT instructions say
>>96681693So what, does the admech buy them or are they condemned “criminals”?
>>96681722Sure but let's be honest, we all know that the civilization that uses fucking galley slaves to load enormous cannon rounds via ropes isn't the kind of place that's a nice place to live other than a high child mortality.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96681770Stated to be the second one in that book >His role was to assess criminals and mark those of above-average intellect for sequestration to the artisanal workshops.
Let's not forget that piece of lore where Imperium criminals have their arms and legs cut off and mounted on walls as a form of security camera.
>>96681747child mortality isn't a problem in 40k :)
>>96681790Thanks for reminding me I need to finish that book.
This is how the Imperium loads its ship weapons.
>>96681341
>>96681727What green primer is that?
>>96681829So has his face turned that colour from the strain of hauling around a vehicle-sized weapon, or is it form the thought of what the recoil/muzzle blast is going to do to him when he fires it?
>>96681836Colour Forge Salamander Green.
>get my rubrics and build>check them against my berzerkers>they stand eye to eye with the stationary pose zerkersI'm 99% sure the retards who parrot that tsons are shorter only think so because their backpacks aren't giant, their actual bodies are the same size
For anyone who has the new Flayed One models; how do you think they'd fit on 25mm bases? Considering getting into an older edition of the game with a Necron force.
What primaris units are needed before GW has to come up with their next big thing?
>>96681849he's a former deldar, the weapon is from the kabalite sprue too
Finished the 5/10 Humans for the strike team, and did the base for the 10th. As well as primed the Hammerhead proxy I talked about a while ago.And did some rough base coats on my October collage piece.
>>96681826>reference to the golden age of sail, since the imperial navy is just that in space>complete with space shantiesManual loading of ship weapons is the number one specific thing I see people cite when talking about grimderp, but I think it's cool
>>96681922Ork picrel, though with very basic initial layers. I ended up going with blue armor over grey/all metal since I felt it'd look better.
>>96681626Nice bird
>>96681687>>96681693>>96681695>>96681700>>96681747How is even life expectancy counted? Like 35 what? Years? What years? Solar years? Do Ultramar(ians?) count life according to solar years or their own sun in their own system? Is there a standardized way to count how old someone is? Then what about Tau? In a novel an Ethereal said he is not scared to sacrifice himself as he is close to death anyway being 60 years old. Again what years? Then there are Ethereals who like live for 300 years like Aun Shi. What years?
>>96681926>>reference to the golden age of sail, since the imperial navy is just that in spaceThere's a few bits of 40k fluff that are basically just this, like the absurd work hours in hive cities are probably just a reference to the work hours of people in factories in England during the industrial revolution.
>>96681913how does one become a "former" deldar, asking for a friend
>>96681930Why does it l look like the sculpt is made of sand
>>96681909>vanguard veterans>centurions>grav gun squad>bike variants for everyone>jump pack variants for everyone>phobos and gravis variants for everyone>vehicles
>>96681939solarimperial vs metricanything you're reading has been translated to be understood by humans
i just want to know what the christmas battleforce boxes will be so i can know if i should save my money for them or just buy the SM combat force
>>96681948I primed it black, then primed from above with a matte tan before starting. I figured that the slight yellow/brown would help make painting the green look better vs painting on grey/white primer.
>>96681939I assume most of the Imperium's military and bureaucracy standardized to Terra's "solar years".
By way of ebay I've gotten a tac and devastator squad, 3rd edition land speeder, and a boxnaught for cheap so I'm finally starting a manlet-only marine army.At least one squad of assault termies and vanguard vets are a given but how many more tactical and devastator squads should I get? I was thinking two and one more respectively.
>>96681939
>>96681922What an absolute Unit of a turret on that thing.
>>96681941There's a whole book about it. Takes bonding a soul stone late in life though which is a risky ordeal and seldom offered by the craftworlds who hoard them jealously.
>>96681922...are your tracks upside down?
>>96681941get off the path of damnation so Slaanesh stops sucking as hard, also get a spirit stone.
I’m slightly tempted to start a spirit seer list. Maybe I’d be on it already if they meshed with harlequins more.
>>96681941Join up with a Corsair band, become close enough with a Craftworld Eldar that they let you come back to their Craftworld, and beg them to give you one of them super rare spirit stones, which might also kill you in the bonding process depending on how much of a sick fuck you were. It might be easier to become an Exodite, I don't recall if it's ever been mentioned how one becomes an exodite
>>96681986An incubi joining a craftworld seems particularly fucked up since they literally have to kill and torture an aspect warrior to become an incubi. But the funny thing is that I'm pretty sure both instances of a deldar becoming a craftworlder were incubi
>>96682005>kill and torture an aspect warriorin that order?
>>96681989Yeah I flipped and inverted the treads. I felt like it looked a bit better with the the sprocket getting the little bulge.
>>96681940And you can fluff it by asserting that loading cannons and operating the hive systems used to be done by AIs and robots, but without those they have to be done by men
>>96681998>Join up with a Corsair band, become close enough with a Craftworld Eldar that they let you come back to their Craftworld,This sounds like the European immigration crisis. It doesn't end well.
>>96682009Kind of, actually. Killing an aspect warrior puts their soul in their spirit stone, then they modify them to become tormentor crowns that causes them to radiate pain and agony by torturing the soul trapped inside them so strongly it effects others nearby..
>people complain about the rules and 10th edition>meanwhile in the 3.5 CSM codex a single unit of Nurgle Chosen could reach over 2000 points in bonusesidk man I've played since 6th and this is the best the game has ever been
>>96682022>that one racist autarch complaining about eldar maidens going on binges in commoragh and coming back with drukhari anchor babies>the farseers reassure him that its good for the craftworld economy
>>96682028it's the best its been balance wise but the lack of flavor means its lost something along the way I still feel like late-stage Kirby era in 6th-7th was the worst 40k ever got.
>>96682028People complaining about the 'good old days" of 40k rules seem to forget that broken comps had long reigns of tyranny and usually had to wait until the next edition or codex to be solved, rather than the 3-month cycle of balance updates we have now.
>>96682036/v/ermin and fake grog secondaries wouldn't know that so 8th is the worst
>>96682036I can't help but think GW will start adding a bunch of flavor back into the game as a means to sell more stuff. >>96682041Right? Plus at least armies look like actual armies now. For how fucking long did we have to deal with bullshit Taudar garbage and >I'm gonna have.. 30 guardsmen, 2 officers, a knight... and 3 smash captains.>Daring today aren't we?
>>96682041so in pure theory, old 40k was supposed to be accurate to some kind of a narrative. i.e named characters would be OP with literal plot armor. So the game relied on you and your opponent basically agreeing to not break the gameHowever, in practice, to not break the game you had to essentially throw the game at several points, you couldn't run monoload out units like all lascannon devastators were seen as waac by some people
how are autarchs trained? do craftworlds just notice a particular aspect warrior is cycling through several warrior paths without becoming an exarch and that makes them an autarch? or do they specifically have to walk the autarch path?
>>96681829Wrong thread NPC
>>96682066post models with timestamp

>>96682078thats the point, you can even find posts back then of people saying they'll stick to 7th
>>96681322The sign on the door said Free blue wife, is this where the line starts?
>orange and teal repentiaI'm losing my miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiind
>>96682066Please direct to the proper thread or I will just make another new /40kg/
>>96682051In pure theory, it always has been even in the current edition. In 3rd & 4th edition, you only used special characters by mutual consent - But they weren't OP as such, they were just better versions of their nameless unit types with a special rule or two. Marneus Calgar still "only" had 4 wounds and 2+/4+, which stood out because most non-monster characters had 3. The rules have gotten tighter because quite frankly, a tighter ruleset is better for any game than a loose one, and if people want to play 40k narratively instead of competitively, nothing ever stopped them from doing so and there's no need for GW to force it when its up to the players to simply choose how fluffy they want their game to be.
>>96682082Kino
>>96682075that's just the ranger model, guess I should paint the feet purple I couldn't tell they're armor
I'm glad that we're long free of the tyranny of the Loyal 32
>>96682096>In 3rd & 4th edition, you only used special characters by mutual consent - But they weren't OP as suchin an article talking about when they reversed the consent thing jervis johnson out right said that it was because they were meant to be OP
>>96682094>page 1I wouldn't if I were you
>>96682075You stoupid
>>96681351Right shoulder and blade need cleaning but everything else is fantastic.
>>96682100Disregard, I forgot rangers had sexy stirrup thigh highs.
>>96682105I didn't mind it, it was a very clean meta in the sense that it was a very clear extention of game mechanics.Right now, Marines have something similar with liberator assault group armies taking the cheapest shit.
>>96682105The wot
>>96682056They choose to walk the Path of Command on their own volition. Probably after some experience as an Aspect Warrior of one or more shrines, yes. I would assume the Path of Command also entails some specific training for, you know, commanding.
>>96682122You don't need to keep samefagging your slop
>>966821263x10 squads of Guardsmen and 2 Company Commanders, they existed as Command Point generating cheerleaders for a lot of Imperial Armies.
>>96682132Why are you so violently against that guy's model
>>96682068Not sure how it will help your case NPC, but here you go.
>>96682138One schizo decided his shtick is hating EC and saying nobody plays them.
>>96682138>>96682141You're still doing it
>>96681444They eat food (protein, carbs, fiber, sugar) but shitting crystals is only ever mentioned in a extremely dubious source which gets basic facts about other species wrong so most likely their feces is similar to ours but far reduced in quantity compared to us.
>>96682106Yeah, but OP in 4th is like, one more wound and +1 to two attributes and costing 40 points fewer than they 'should' because the matrix GW used for point costs based on stats didn't have a metric for characters' unique rules. So they were OP in that sense, but they didn't dominate their games and become mandatory picks when events allowed them. The idea always was these are special guys that can makes the games thematic if you include them, but they aren't going to play your game for you.
God I hope Dawn of War IV has a Tau DLC.
>>96682141No you're just bad at painting lol
>>96682167I don't even play EC man
I swear, the fucking iron halos on Bladeguard break off so easily.
Should I magnetize them? Or since the recent codex is that not necessary for things like Crisis Suits since they basically grouped them in 3 same weapon teams? Riptides, Broadsides and Ghostkeel's probably should be magnetized, no? Is that a big hassle? Do the weapons fall off and are annoying when magnetized? I never did that so I have no idea how annoying it is.
Man tau really just get uglier every time you look at em.
>>96682141I'm the guy asking why he's so against that model and you've accused me of being the same schizo hating on the emperor's children because I said their range was boring, so I won't be listening to your takeOr feeding the retard seething about some guy's EC HQ anymore (you)s
>>96681941Basically realizing you're a simp for Slaanesh and understanding that all the torture, rape, murder, is just accelerating the extinction of your race and asking for help from other Eldar whose doctrine is "shoot on sight" and trusting them to believe you that you want to change and then accompanying a raid to the Crone Worlds where every Slaanesh daemon is beelining to you because you are a supernova broadcasting your soul into the either and finding a soul stone willing to accept you and congratulations you are just a bog standard Craftworld Eldar now. Most Deldar simply refuse to undergo this process.
>>96682204You're looking at the mirror, anon. I'm sorry.
>>96682215>and you've accused me of being the same schizo hating on the emperor's children because I said their range was boringwhere did this happen
>>96682223like last week, maybe the week priorI remember making the comment and seeing you go LOL THERE'S THE ANTI-EC SCHIZO MELTY AGAIN
>>96682218I didnt know I was an aborted mech
>>96681422Nothing conventional about Teleporting Grey Knights or flying 15ft battle suits
>>96682201magnetize them just because its fun to swap weapons even when not playing.
>>96682163None cares about xenos
I like these new termies, and I kinda wish GW would stop trying to seperate each kit to eahc game for bean coutners and let Heresy era stuff be used by the veterens of the long war. The past soldiers of the Imperium that helped to found it have been twisted by literal nightmares to tear down the Imperium. They should look ancient and weird and different from M41 tech
>>96681444That weird bread thing Galadriel gave to the hobbits in lotr
>>96681699They have Seeker missiles.
>>96682237
>>96682201Honestly the commander and xv8's are really only worth magnitising still.
>>96681543When you think about it, hololive is a little mid anyway. And none of their elves speak english.
>>96682258Both the Riptide and Ghostkeel have different big weapons. I think only those are worth magnetizing. Rest can be kitbashed into multi weapon platforms.
>>96682249Deathbuard literally do use Cataphracti though. I suppose there’s nothing stopping you from just proxying in HH models as Chaos Marines either, the refreshed models should be around the same size/scale
>>96681626I was at the GW store today waiting to get my free model and 1 paint since it's been a couple of months so I started looking at the pries on their fuckin models. I forgot because I've been buying secondhand for 40-60% off or from third party stories that are 15-25% off but fuckin 80 bucks for a little box of admech or a fighter jet like what the fuck are they thinking unironically.
>>96682277Check out Lego prices. It's even worse.
>>96681651>>96679128Doesn't seem real. Mainly because it's kind of policy that children will rarely get hurt in popular ips and properties. It's like Cyberpunk,GTA and Red dead magically not having any random kid npcs in the overworld or if they exist you cat hurt them.
>>96682275Saturnite termies should be an option for elite CSM termies units. The Justaerin, red butchers etc
>>96681974This is stupid as fuck because names don't fucking change because of the language, Robute Guilliman is fucking Robute Guilliman in every fucking language. Considering the Arabic numerals and the English literary rules involving EVERYTHING in the Imperium and our own universe, the "common language" (Low Gothic) would most likely be understandable and near identical to modern English. Education and standardized pronunciation allowed English to stratify and halt development. The Dark Age of Technology civilization would take great pains to have have a common language across human space. "High Gothic" is most likely bad Chruch Latin combined with technical terms to obfuscate and simply deny lower Imperial citizens the very concept of higher technology and learning, which is exactly why the Catholic Church of old refused to translate the Bible into local languages.
>>96682294if we finally got plastic chaos'd red butchers and they were in saturnine and not cataphractii I would actually commit acts of terror
>>96682132What the fuck are you babbling about?
>>96682285At least Legos work with older/ other Lego sets
>>96682249Damn non Primaries marines are so short
>>96682302Cataphracti are getting refreshed to true scale(?) in HH, if they’re anywhere near the scale of the new Indomitus Terminators no way people don’t just steal them for those conversions. Especially if Legion Terminators get refreshed with them.
>>96682314stop giving the shitposter attention
>>96681322>sloshHow do you think mammary glands work?
>>96682230alright I'll let you think that was me I guess. Have fun anon.
I'm building Wraithguard right now and their flat round joints for the arms seem ideal for magnetization since I'd like the option to give them swords or guns, but I've never done it before. Do any of you know what size magnets fit them?Also I fucked up and didn't realize each hip piece is meant to match a specific pair of legs.
>>96682285if you're an adult man buying legos/the lego death star for 900 bucks for yourself instead of your son, and you have no son, you made a lot of fucking mistakes and should rethink your life.
>>96682352
>>96682316The thing is I already have a bunch of legos in my mom's basement (that are legally mine, she's not allowed to throw them away). I'm not paying 500 bucks for Darth Kylo Ren (2019) when I have my kickass Darth Maul spaceship with Darth Maul and Count Dooku/Darth Tyranidus.
>>96682289Meanwhile, on Titan station...
>>96682356>ghetto black dude>actually the biggest dweeb ever>50 years old>envisions himself as Twoface or somethingFace of /toy/
>>96682361And then we also go to a school and kill all the convered kids and see all their little lockers covered in blood. And the fucking new born baby enemies that are everywhere in the game by the end. Ah good times, 40k should have more child death
We have several married modelposterss hereAnybody trying to deride this hobby as a thing for failed males ITT is a kissless /v/ermin projecting his own failures
>>96682352This is the kind of thing said by people who have spent thousands on shoe and watch "collections" that are literally just more expensive funko pops.
>>96682361>>96682374why did visceral hate babies so muchthey fucking mocapped their own babies as unbaptized souls in dante's inferno
>>96682374>>96682289Now that I think of it, the last book in the Nightlords trilogy does have a scene where a kid gets skinned. It's "offscreen" but there is zero ambiguity about what happens.
>>96682382part of the psyop
>>96682381What is a shoe and watch collections?
>>96682389fuck off /pol/tard
>>96682378If you are an adult man you should not be buying legos as a collector's item for yourself. That is retarded. It doesn't matter if you're married.
>>96682401The last time you had a positive interaction with a woman other than your mother or sister was in first grade
>>96682390I'm not sure what there is that needs further clarification but here you go.
>>96682399you got psy op'd
>>96682386Yeah that book talks about the nightlords putting women and children and babies into the 'skinning pits'. But what is a skinning pit anyway? I imagine theres several razorwires that are automated to skin someone as they fall through a pit
>>96682344I think I used 2mm magnets for my wraithguard but they've been sitting in a box somewhere after I stripped them so I can't confirm. Personally, I feel it was a waste of time because it took so damned long to drill all the holes even with a small electric drill.
>>96681941According to modern fluff most of the eldar juct change their mind and join other branches at a whim.
>>96682339I don't worry about it because I'm jerking off to a picture and don't need to consider every artery or nerve ending to finish
>>96682411I assumed it was just a mass grave the skinned (and possibly still living) victims got tossed into
>>96682425That's a craftworld thing
>>96682405You are an adult man buying legos for 900 dollars. Seek to change yourself instead of pretending your fat wife who fucks other guys somehow makes it okay.
>>96682440NTA, but mocking grown men for spending too much money on plastic toys in /40kg/ requires an impressive lack of self-awareness.
>>96682440You're seething about what other grown men spend their money on and seething you're alone. I'd recommend finding a hobby, or seeking the company of another human being
>>96682440Don't be projecting
>>96682440The only difference between Legos and our hobby is that we have to buy a bunch of paint and glue to finish our models.
>>96682411>>96682434Looking up the excerpt where it’s mentioned, it really is just a pit where bodies go after being flayed. The name implies their purpose is to do so, but Nightlords are known for being horrific, not smart.
>>96682440But I'm sure that 13k you spent on Alpha Male Man Camp was perfectly reasonable
>>96682447No I'm actually hyperaware because legos are explicitly always a toy for kids, only the fattest of retards in denial about their patheticness would actively defend spending 900 bucks on what is basically a toy that might have been 100 bucks max 20 years ago before the "manchild extortion culture" became normalized.>>96682448>and seething you're aloneTsk tsk so mad about his wegoes he can't even spell check. If nothing I said was true, you wouldn't even respond because you wouldn't be bothered. You respond because, like I said, it's a fucking toy for kids that has been price gouged to a massive degree that GW would hope to someday emulate if they could.
>>96682460You haven't seen your penis in years
>>96682343Yes I'm sure there's multiple people schizophrenically trying to assign all emperors children-hate to one single scapegoat
>>96682463What do you bench, little bro?
>>96682460All of those words are spelled right, did you hit your head

>>96681341'Crons. Still seeing if I like the idea of painting them and delaying the sale of other models 'cause I'm lazy like that.
Just had the most fun game yet and it did truly come down to both of us having very even rolls throughout the game. We paused after round 3 and we are in a dead heat.
Reminder.
>>96682524that's peanuts
>>96682528
>>96682491It's a neat visual, I agree.
>>96682506>units have made it all the way to the center of the table>somehow haven't shot each other enough for any units to be missing modelsThis isn't a game, this is just you playing with a playset
>>96682540Why do you indulge him?
Guard should be 3ppm but 5+ to hit
>>96682540there's dice a single terminator left from a 5 man unit, go eat a dick nogames
>That one time that Guilliman invaded a Necron world>Then assumed that the Necrons temporarily not destroying his army out of mercy was them being incapable of doing so>Then unironically says 'your time has passed' to the Necron>Before getting utterly BTFO'd when the Necron casually decimates his armyI swear to god Guilliman is such a loser
>>96682544indulge what you fat pig?
>>96682548Kinda weird that the Blood Angels didn't tell Girlyman about the Silent King.
>>96682548I didn't read your gay fan wank cause there's a titty lady on my screen
>>96682551I mean Guilliman was warned by the Eldar not to invade or else it would be a disaster.Hilariously, Guilliman is constantly on edge about how he thinks he's being manipulated by the Eldar, but so far the Eldar have only bailed his ass out of the fire while Guilliman has petulantly attacked them for it in return, and then he ignores the Eldar's warnings and gets his ass handed to him for it.
>>96682552Doesn't Tau'Va manifest as a 4-armed lady?
>>96682558Yes. They Tau'ght them wrong.
>>96682558What a strange forehead tattoo
>>96682563>>96682568Oh, nevermind I'm fucking retarded there's a bunch of Tau in that picture
>>96682557its a LOT more complicated than that and what Guilliman did has everything to do with the theme of prophecy in 30/40k and how it can influence choices. this is in DOZENS of books anon.if anything his views on prophecy can be viewed as a meta-criticism of what happened to Curze and Sanguinius

>>96682439No. All Eldar
>>96682591How old is she? I mean in "lived" years not frozen. She must be very old. Also being frozen and defrosted must be extremely tough on the body.
>>96682579not a whole lot of new people being added, maybe I could get a shot at joining?

Look at this guy i painted. Post guys that you have painted.
>>96682622Should your paint not be thinned enough that it's more ink-like? If it's going on that opaque I think you need to thin it way more.

>>96682647What's pissing me off about the Tau or rather the Tau community is the extreme need to be the "good guys" in the setting and any mention of shady stuff gets swept under the rug pr hard-core seethed at (like Ethereal manipulation). I'm sorry but you can't spin an "Alien overlords ruling over other aliens and humans" in a good light. Sure it might be a better fate than living on a Forge World but it's still aliens ruling over you. They are not a [Space Sector] Federation of Worlds, they are called The TAU EMPIRE. TAU come first. There's a reason they get to ride cool suits and you are slogging on foot as a meat shield (like the Kroot etc.) Tau will always come first and when push comes to shove and shit goes down they won't hesitate to exterminate you or "peacefully relocate" which historically ends up the same way.
>>96682728I think it's funnier watching it degenerate
>>96682730You should get less angry about lore
>>96682737I'm not angry about the lore. I like the lore. I'm angry at lorelets.

>>96682733It's evolving into his new colour scheme
>>96682730Tau are coming bro.
>>96682730ethereal manipulation is pure in-universe speculation from the imperium who cannot comprehend a network of species cooperating otherwise (this is canon to the 3e and 4e codices for the tau)
>>96682730>What's pissing me off about the Tau or rather the Tau community is the extreme need to be the "good guys"I do this with every faction I've ever played no matter the setting.I just tell people>Yeah, I'm playing the good guysand either they agree with me, laugh it off as a a joke, or they get extremely irate.It's a great filter.

>>96682730I'm gonna be honest with you bro. When my options are "be treated fairly nicely with good equipment, food, and shelter in a society with moderate freedoms", and my alternative is the fucking Imperium...I don't care that the Tau isn't a modern liberal democracy. Just give me some food that isn't corpse starch and I'll happily side with the Greater Good.

>>96682763It's fine to say you're guys are the good guys. Imperium are the good guys. Seething when lore gets released that shows how your guys are not the good guys is not ok. It's stupid. Also screeching how everyone is bad but you is cringe.
Friend that play Catachan always proxy some minis in his second command squads, so I made these as a birthday gift
>>96682784There's no canonicity to that concept, it's all still speculation retard
>>96682762>>96682787>>96682825It's funny how you're literally proving my point from >>96682730>the Tau community is the extreme need to be the "good guys" in the setting and any mention of shady stuff gets swept under the rug or hard-core seethed at (like Ethereal manipulation).

How does space marine geeseed multiplication work? From what bits I understand you use 1 set of geneseed to make a space marine and when he dies you extract 1 new set that make a new space marine. But if that's so then shouldn't space marines be going extinct from ones that die where you can't recover the geneseed? How do they make geneseed in a positive ratio?
>>96682886He does that whenever he's been btfo a bunch. I haven't been paying attention to this shitfit but whoever lost was probably him
GG
>>96682897One in the neck that is extracted when it matures, the other in the chest that is taken when the Marine dies.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>96682904A complete geneseed is still those 2 pieces together though. Unless you can extract them from space marines multiple times, it's still spending 1 and getting 1. Which means you can't lose any or its negative.
>>96682915Both Progenoids will produce complete geneseeds. Unless you fail to recover the body, you're getting 2 per Marine. "Phase 18: There are two of these glands, one situated in the neck and the other within the chest cavity. These glands are vitally important and represent the future of the Chapter, as the only way new gene-seed can be produced is by reproducing it within the bodies of the Marines themselves. This is the implant's only purpose. The glands absorb genetic material from the other implanted organs. When they have matured, each gland will have developed a single gene-seed corresponding to each of the zygotes which have been implanted into the Marine"
>>96682919Seems gay
>>96682919But don't you have to implant 2 geneseed organs to make a space marine?
>>96682925Okay you're just being dumb on purpose now.
status update: after napping and running errands following work i finally have my *entire* army primed yay! gonna do guilliman and the 2 speeders for sure tonight
>>96682931I would leave Guilliman for last. With every model you are getting more exp. Save the centerpiece for last when you level up.
Thoughts on hand of the archon being in the new 40k Drukhari codex? Are they must take just from what we can guess? Seems nice to have scout on a unit with that many options. Honestly I will probably take them anyways regardless for kitbashing reasons, but curious how everyone else feels

>>96682927I'm just asking how space marines aren't going extinct if they only extract the same number of geneseed as they have to insert into them in the first place.
>>96682957To be fair education has been going down the drain in most developed countries, doesn't help if someone's sole language is english.
>>96682962I was making fun of how Brits added letters to words in a bid to make them fancierLike aluminium being one retard editing a scientific journal's invention and nobody in England knew better so they just ran with it while america already knew what the real word was

>>96683073Abaddon?
>>96683110Father?
>>96682943They're overpriced and have a few janky things about them that make them not as good as regular Kabalites. You can't split them into fives with a Venom and therefore can never bounce them in and out of transports, they don't have sticky objectives, they get half as many guns because you can't double up on heavy and special weapons, their precision ability doesn't work on blasters or dark lances, stratagems that Target Kabalites don't work on them, they aren't durable enough to be worth scouting out into midfield because they will still get run over instantly, and their melee weapons are kind of jank and don't quite make them competent skirmishers.Maybe if they come down like 15 points they might be worth taking outside of Kabal Cartel, but right now it doesn't immediately seem like it.
>Taus standard equipment is seen as special weaponry to the ImperiumSo the Tau is more technologically advanced than the Imperium right? Like the imps have WAY better tech overall but its hidden away and used by very specific and powerful people and groups, standard gear vs standard great the imperium is just outmatched by the Tau
Would it be more fun to play 4 40k armies or an army each for 40k, aos, legions, and Horus heresy?
>>96683152Yes, common imperial tech is "inferior" to Tau tech.But, the imperium still can use sometimes exotic DAoT stuff that mogs anything the Tau has, it's just hidden away by the greedy and paranoid AdMech.Also the Tau sometimes miss the point of imperial tech, whose main feature is being made to last. From starships to space marine suits, they last for centuries or even millenia. This adds to the already overwhelming superior in numbers imperial logistics.
>>96683177>DAoT stuffLike Predator tank?
>>96682775Clown tier.
>>96683184That's like saying the peak of modern technology is a fork because we also produce forks, don't be dumb.
>>96682730>everything should be miserable as I am and spread more misery as I do
>>96682730>What's pissing me off about the Tau or rather the Tau community is the extreme need to be the "good guys" in the setting and any mention of shady stuff gets swept under the rug pr hard-core seethed atthat's another thing taufags have in common with imperialfags
>>96683193But tank is certainly not a fork. And Predator was main battletank of DAoT humanity (so it's certainly was passing standards which DAoT humans expected from their weapon)
>>96683118
>>96683201>But tank is certainly not a fork.in a matter of perspective, it is, they're both relatively trivial products of a much more advanced industrial system
>>96683195>t. reddit tourist
>>96683201DAoT seems to be very overhyped.
>>96683152>Taus standard equipment is seen as special weaponry to the ImperiumSpecial as in non-standard. Since it's foreign. The same way captured enemy equipment today would have a special purpose for you, rather than being something anyone can get from the armoury.>>96683177>Yes, common imperial tech is "inferior" to Tau tech.Imperial tech can be cruder, but they still have plenty of common stuff Tau don't. Even something as simple as a las power pack is quite a fancy piece of tech I don't see Tau making use of. And stuff like pulse weapons aren't that fancy. It just uses induction to heat and propel the projectile.
>>96681322I cannot choose between Raptors, Crimson Fists or Black Templars.. assistance is required, CF seem pretty cool and they do have a special character but the I do like the crusading aesthetic but I feel not many people collect Raptors of CF
>>96683201> Predator was main battletank of DAoT humanityyes, but that was because DAoT humanity do not really used tanks anymore. The RH1-N0 variants were literally STLs for colonists dealing with orks and other fauna. Just like Knighs and Titans were repurposed construction mechs.The more civilized DAoT core human worlds were closer to the Star Trek Federation or The Culture until the Iron Men rebellion fucked it all. So most of their really advanced weapons dissapeared leaving just the prepper toys.
>>96683218It is, especially when it comes to what was the average distribution of the tools amongst colonists, who must have favoured hardy simple equipment, but it's also undeniable that it produced extremely advanced technologies the votann are another example of some of those, and while most of their forces we see are those of glorified miners they still have outstanding power armors, a mastering of various other fields of tech.the tau got handed a rudimentary version of ion weapons from them and they've been thus far unable to develops it to match the understanding and sophistication of the votann ion weapons.This must be imagined for many other fields, if one were to treat the nebulous daot fairly.Humans at the time weren't certainly at the heights of eldar or necrons, but they were surely ahead of the tau in their current state.
>>96683229>es, but that was because DAoT humanity do not really used tanks anymore.[citation needed]
>>96683229>>96683231I wish we got a Men of Iron army. Some remnants that maybe left the galaxy or were forced to leave and now eant revenge or something.
>>96683246People tend to assume that humanity was not nearly as dumb during the DAoT and actually understood conventional warfare tactics like air superiority and drone use.
>>96683246Anon, when you have Star Trek tech, tanks are like horse carriages.Predators were the mainstay DAoT tank in the same way synthetic compound bows are the most common bows nowadays.>>96683260We got clues about that in pic related.
>>96683229It's weird how over time everything that came before was better than what we have now. Thunder warriors went from inferior proto-marines to primaris+ that tore marines in half, with some handwaved reason they had to be gotten rid of. 2e CSM used Crusade era plasma that was more dangerous than later Imperial plasma, and lacked a lot of the post-Heresy equipment of the Imperium. Now Crusade era marines had way more cool stuff than what 40k marines have.
>>96682931Which will be done first. The box of golden grahms or the army. My bet is on the army at the rate you're going. Godspeed
>>96683260between necrons and votann, the room for a men of iron army is quite limited maybe they expand on the steeljacks enough to be able to field an army of only ironkin
>>96683276Why would Star Trek tech negate tanks, rather than make Star Trek tanks? We didn't stop giving infantry weapons that hurl projectiles at each other, we just use chemical reactions and metal tubes instead of arched pieces of wood and strings.
>>96683228Just paint BT and CF they did crusade together. BT painted their left fist red and CF added a templar cross on their right knee.
>>96683293but they wouldn't be the killbots people think about when mentioning the men of ironmaybe darkmek will provide minis of that type?
>>96683278we could be the same irlbefore the younger dryasbefore our civilization got wiped outbefore we were forced to restart
>>96683300It's going to be nu daemons like vashtorr
>>96683302nah, or we would have seen plastic shit

>>96681341Working on 3 more headtaker to make pic rel a 6 man pack, I'm also paiting a battle leader to lead my blood claws
>>96683308They had more advanced polymer recycling.
>>96683298Armor becomes useless and only energy shields matter, so at one point it's better to save the weight.Also look at what is happening with drones IRL. "Tanks" do not make sense once antigrav becomes cheap and common. Tanks only made sense for colonists with limited resources.
>>96683300>maybe darkmek will provide minis of that type?We already know what the Darkmek looks like.It's all proto Defiler-style mechanical spiders and zombie cyborgs
>>96682775no one does and never will
>>96683331>Armor becomes useless and only energy shields matterLeopard 1 was built on the concept of armour not mattering, putting emphasis on mobility and firepower. Then we invented composite armour and suddenly armour mattered a whole lot. Even Starfleet ships began to armour up in later shows, not just relying on shields.>look at what is happening with drones IRL.What did happen with drones IRL? Beyond some carefully edited and cherry picked propaganda videos, countries aren't getting rid of their tanks nor buying all the commercial drones on the market to replace them with.>"Tanks" do not make sense once antigrav becomes cheap and common.Because anti-grav tanks are not a thing?

>>96683276>Anon, when you have Star Trek tech, tanks are like horse carriages.Good thing we discussing Warhammer 40k, not Star Trek
>>96683405>EldarAaaand into the trash it goes
>>96683361>Leopard 1nonsensical example.Betting on not being hit is not the same as relying on energy shields> carefully edited and cherry picked propaganda videoswe have entire fucking battles on video showing armoured colums being destroyed by drone hits and drones as artillery spotters. And that's after modern ATGM already made WW2-style tank rushes a suicide>countries aren't getting rid of their tankssunk-cost fallacy> anti-grav tanks are not a thing?sure, but they only matter in the middle range between low tech (40k Imperium) and hi tech (Necrons, DAoT)

>>96681687>>96681939>How is even life expectancy counted? Like 35 what? Years? What years? Solar years? Do Ultramar(ians?) count life according to solar years or their own sun in their own system? Is there a standardized way to count how old someone is?A redditor once actually did the numbers based on the stated distance of Macragge from its star and worked out that a "Macragge Year" is between 2.41 and 2.85 standard Earth/Terran/Solar years. So if they were counting by Maragge years and not Terran/Solar years then life expectancy on Macagge would be 84.35 to 99.75 Solar years.>https://old.reddit.com/r/40kLore/comments/q8d90b/a_year_on_macragge_is_285_terran_years/>Then what about Tau? In a novel an Ethereal said he is not scared to sacrifice himself as he is close to death anyway being 60 years old. Again what years? Then there are Ethereals who like live for 300 years like Aun Shi. What years?THANK YOU! I've asked a few times about any source for Tau life expectancy being low because all I could find was Aun'Shi who was nearing retirement age at 40, but still able to kill Orks in close combat.If I remember correctly, a Tau year is approx. 300 Earth days, which would mean the ethereal you were talking about was just shy of 50 Terran/Solar years old.But the big problem in all of this is that I legitimately don't think the writers are smart enough to have ever thought about any of this.>>96681651Just reading that, without any other context, I took it to mean that the kid was ripped out of her arms as she, the mother/narrator, was dragged off to be turned into a servitor.
>>96683415>DAoT humanity techSeen Predator chassis and weapon acceptable for the role of main battle tank.
>>96683314Nice
>>96683336This is awesome.
>>96683405Fuck off xenofag
>>96683405How the hell did you pick 2 of the lamest models in the range. The platofrms and war walkers are so awful to me. Also no Eldrad? He's literally mandatory in a seer council list to lead that 4 stack of locks.picrel if you dont like using a named character, the model itself is great
>>96683448>this post is extremely low quality
>>96683453
>>96683424>strawmanningyou're wrong about the meaning of that word just like you're wrong about the rest>>96683435the point is that a main battle tank during the DAoT wasn't representative of their real military tech. Just like modern archery bows doesn't tell you anything about modern assault rifles. Do you even know what the meaning of "MBT" ?
>>96683451Using named characters is gay
>>96683464>the point is that a main battle tank during the DAoT wasn't representative of their real military tech.[citation needed]>Just like modern archery bowsModern compound bows are not standardised military equipment MAIN BATTLE TANK by definition is military equipment.
>>96681372Excellent tips

>>96683336that's the big machines, the smaller infantry units can and likely will be differentjes goodwin in particular has a weird personal fixation regarding adding different modes of locomotion and stances which is expressed mainly in tyranids and admech but was called out explicitly in the latter in one interview
>>96683471>There were weapons in the older days that could do it: weapons of immeasurable power, tech devices employed by both the Iron Men and the alliances that stood against their cybernetic revolt.>Oll remembered the horror of entropic engines that ignited planets. Sun-snuffers that uncoiled like serpents the size of Saturn’s rings. Mechnivores ingesting data along with the cities that contained them and hurling continents into the heavens. Omniphage swarms stripping flesh from a billion bones in the blink of an eye.>Those were the good old days, when war was something too colossal for a human mind to comprehend.>Not like the End War. The Warmaster’s heresy was a smaller thing, scaled for human and post-human brains.>Perpetual (short story) This is just one reference. Tanks during the DAoT in actual core human worlds were just not a thing.>MAIN BATTLE TANK by definition is military equipment.You keep missing the point. The Predator was a repurposed civilian vehicle and that's it.It says very little about what the real DAoT military looked like. Like trying to understand the whole US military by looking at a prepper hunting deer with a composite bow.
>>96683502>no 5 wounds on my terminator captain or homebrew chapter master is bad because... because... it just is okay!!!!alright. at least I don't have to waste time on your shitty list no one cares about.
>>96683513>Tanks during the DAoT in actual core human worlds were just not a thing.More proof of this is how the Rhino had to be "rediscovered" in 30k in Mars, while there were DAoT colonist survivor civilizations that were still using using it as their mainstay tank until conquered by the Imperium
>>96682951>>96682957Amazing that you can still turn your noses up like that when your head is buried into the ground for the call to prayer.
>>96683513people just do not get that the end of the DAoT was just as bad for humanity as the Fall for the Eldar.Pretty much all big human systems were destroyed or fell into barbarism like Terra. Only low tech far away colonies really were able to prosper and weather the End Night
>>96683533>Only low tech far away colonies really were able to prosper and weather the End NightAnd these were either destroyed by the imperium during the Great Crusade, or later during the HH.

>>96682776Ive never understood why all these ESL artists dont just ask a friend to proofread for them so it reads better. I know a bit of french and sometimes I will ask someone I know fluent in french "is this correct, does this sound right?" and every single time they give me a quick 2 second answer. you spend hours drawing this shit and cant spend literally less than a minute hitting up one of your paypigs on twitter or something to fix this. hell, you can run it through chat gpt at this point.warhammer forty thousand
my favorite slop tubers, who happen to get early access to GW prodcuts, say every edition of 40k is broken so we need to be grateful for modern rules.thoughts?
>>96683576My thoughts are that you're a fucking idiot for watching sloptubers, next question
>>96683576There are no good sloptubers and I certainly wouldn't trust any of their opinions on rules of all things.
White Scars and Iron Hands release next week. I'm sure of it this time
>>96683513>The Predator was a repurposed civilian vehicleAnd the M16 is a repurposed civilian rifle. You keep ignoring the fact that those "prepper colonists" had whole empires of their own. They fought wars and had standing armies, they weren't just a bunch of frontiersmen in ATVs with machine guns strapped to them.
>>96683580>>96683586 i'm sarcastically warning you about 11th edition and shills, guys.
>>96683576>say every edition of 40k is broken so we need to be grateful for modern rules.Sounds like 40kg, except 40kg will call you a nogames nomodels secondary fakegrog tourist if you question why 10th stinks like rancid eggs.
>>96683576fuck sloptubers, but it is true that every edition is essentially a different version of the same game so if any given person played all 10 editions of the game people will have a preference for one of them and it is true that 10th is the most "flat" of them so many will prefer that versus pervious editions that are really high variance, low variety, poorly balanced etcPlus there will always be newfags who get their first experience in 10th and a decade from now will be nostalgic for it.
>>96683614>>96683615>"so 'we' need to be grateful for modern rules"do you agree with this part?
