Literally not standardized because of how many unique organizational structures exist within the Imperium. Many planets recruits stay in regiments with their unique culture / armaments and they can be bigger or smaller than any other regiment. The tallarn barely had anyone and krieg has multiple full regiments gallivanting around the galaxy. And that's not even getting into the complications of partial regimental elements being deployed away from their parent force, or the further complication of attached support elements not techinically under Astra Militarum pervue such as a transport craft and close air support from the Navy and its sub organization that handles Atmospheric Aviation.

All that is too say: It's exactly as big or small as makes sense for the story you want to tell, like most things in 40k.

What makes the Imperium so good at turning losses into propaganda victories?

Everybody laughs at the Tau for thinking the Titans were a myth, but nobody cares about the Tau blowing up the Titans shortly afterwards.

Everybody admires the Cadians for fighting to the last man, but nobody shames them for ultimately losing.

Everybody admires Guilliman for that badass speed he gave to the Necrons about humanity's fate as the dominant race amongst the stars, but nobody cares that the Silent King effortlessly blew up almost his entire fleet afterwards.

Somehow, even when the Imperium loses, it still looks like they're winning.

Not gonna lie its a badass picture, I could almost go for Women as Chaos Marines because it makes sense that it would be a bad or twisted thing allowing Women to become Space Marines.

I started to get interested in crimson fists, then I read their lore and was seriously disappointed. It's all just "have a heroic last stand and get almost wiped out, build back and recover then immediately have another heroic last stand and get almost wiped out" repeated over and over. Maybe I missed something but they seemed one note, just re enacting their famous art all the time and that's it.

being a space marine faction that actually has major loses on their belt endears them to people who like a good "pick yourself back up" story
although their primarch is even more boring than girlyman, them being a 2nd founding chapter has some flavor there and exemplifies that idea that many of the SM chapters are fighting for the legacy of their primarchs even if they are successors
i don't know how much this is represented in lore, but their brother chapter being the black templars makes this legacy thing even more interesting for CF specifically
the imperial fists are a chapter in decline that has stayed stalwart guardians of terra but hasn't done shit because they're still grieving their daddy
the black templars are the psychopaths who took that grief and turned it into rage
crimson fists get back up and even got the favor of girlyman himself

CF will probably be more boring in the long run with UM getting their Roman aesthetic back though

Nta but I think female marines could work solely because of picrel, but I'd only do like 1 maybe two character with specific personalities.

Sisters of Battle are already the female space marines and I actually think the brotherhood/sisterhood thing makes marines better, I don't think the fiction needs "inclusivity" (american minorities).

But if I had to do it, I'd do it like I presented.

Not at all. It's pretty rare to see both because it represents a significantly greater investment of time and effort, and because most people who play Guard do it for famous regiments they like.
>Been reading about the Blood Pact from Gaunts Ghosts and it’d be cool to remake them or something, idk. Is this retarded?
Not at all. Blood Pact is pretty well-known as a good rendition of what traitor Guard would look like. Using them as inspiration is a good starting point for /your dudes/

40k's reputation as a chud game makes it so the community gets filled up with people who were disillusioned with Star Wars, Star Trek, Star Balls or whatever the fuck for a multitude of valid reasons flock to it like moths to a flame as a "based right leaning pro human" alternative to the other hecking woke settings. They implant their current existing views on the imperium as a way to validate themselves and their conceptions of the setting as a MANLY MAN GAME and will go through great lengths to cope and keep that view no matter how hard that view is constantly challenged in setting ever since the very foundations of it. This phenomena also created a reactionary response of people believing 40k was a commentary and satire of fascism when really, even though it has satirical elements and these people are at least a little bit closer to the truth by saying the imperium is indeed evil (but miss the mark on making 40k political in any serious capacity), it wasn't that either. 40k was always about crazy evil assholes fighting each other in space in a competition of who's the most maniacal evil asshole around so they can lord over all the filthy peasants and resources of the galaxy, the imperium are the protagonists because they are the largestt of these groups but that doesn't make them any better, if anything it makes them worst. No faction is supposed to be morally grand or upstanding no matter how much the "is fighting le hecking ontologically evil faction" makes it so, even if the imperium wasn't fighting anyone it would still be a very shitty space feudal regime where people work 17 hours a day with no sign of things getting better at all

I'm trying to get into black templars lore since I bought a lot of them for a discount. The models are cool but from what I can gather from the the lore aspect from the faction, sigismund jobbed to abbadon (but in a based way???) and they had some big chungus wholesome reddit moments on armageddon and then some random filler fights here and there that all space marine chapter get. When I go online, all I get are esports review of the faction, phonk edits, and some random chud tubers glazing them for obvious reasons. Can you guys recommend some black templar books other than the armageddon series which I'll probably start soon enough.

I would also like to add that this notion became truly strong after the big setting wide tone shift and rebranding of 8th edition. Before Guilliman's return the Imperium were allowed to be assholes on screen more often but GW realised the real selling tactic was dilluting the original tone to appeal to the slop eating "muh big man" folk. You can still have big badass dudes fighting without making it about heroics or bullshit notions of honor and battle bonds that no actual soldier in real life has ever had
This whole thing won't stop either and will only get more outrageous as time goes on. Im only complaining because I find these types of stories really boring and what made me gravitate to 40k was having a setting where everyone was somewhat wrong and mentally fucked instead of one where the protagonist is a self insert for whatever values are raging in american society at the time, capeshit is a word that gets thrown around a lot in discussions like this and I couldn't agree further but buzzwords are for fags. GW's stocks are only going up in value, which is great news for me since I hopped on that bandwagon before that, but also horrid news for people like me that wanted a setting composed of comically absurd madman shooting each other with big bolters and big robots while competing for a war crime count. Im not sure if this general stands with the more modern capeshitty 40k or a more fucked up one (not necessarily grimdark because you can have absurd things and humor in 40k without making it any less horrific) so either find a ecochamber group that agrees with your takes or drop the setting and stick to just painting the miniatures how ya like

Still haven’t thought up of a catachan replacement, maybe using DC and if house Goliath from the oldmunda range, or maybe Cadians, kriegers, and catachans could be three different traitor groups working together.

You're not entirely wrong, but I think you can also get inured to how fucked up the imperium is over time, so it ends up looking more sanitised than it truly is because you've grown accustomed to it.

I finally started on my submission proper. I had a hard time figuring what to do for the spooky theme but it was rather obvious

last month I lost the tip of my pinky (couldn't be reattached) and preserved it in salt then covered in epoxy resin. it took soom time to figure out how to best get at it and I wasted about one week just experimenting. but finally the central mosaic piece for my orky version of the triumph of saint katherine was ready

RT already had a design for plasma weapons. So we have no idea what the weapon was suppose to be. GW just gave the new(er) model a weapon they had. Just like the Imperial Space Marine was given a combi-disintegrator and a disintegration pistol (which has a bolt weapon muzzle instead of the disintegrator one) while the LE2 Marine's weapon had a weird twin-nostrils over the bayonet and a tiny trumpet muzzle device over them, similar to many early guns of the Space Marines (like the one that was the inspiration for Thallax and their lightning guns).

Sigismund is written as the greatest space marine duelist of 30k, like on-par with Kharn and Abaddon. He killed Kharn at the Siege of Terra, and he almost killed Abaddon in the First Black Crusade, even though he was extremely old by then. Abaddon didn't have Drachyen then though.

Not like that. I've spent bits here and there over the years, for 19 years. When I got started I spent about 2k usd on imperial guard and sisters of battle during 4th edition.
Now more recently I spent another 16k on updating my army to be the new plastic kits and new cadians and new sisters and more imperial agents stuff, and some random eldar stuff so I can say I don't only play humans.

Ironically, it's partially because I have done very well with investments that I'm able to do this big update.

I've been looking through the lore to find times the emperor interacted with the chaos gods and I noticed an interesting pattern. They're always described as being near him but avoiding coming too close.

When a Harlequin was on Terra she described them like void sharks being kept back by a void whale. When the Lion was in his weird warp forest he kept noticing shadows around the wounded king, but they never touched him. When the king was on his boat fishing they stayed in the river. In his hall the shadows stayed on the walls.

I think the message to take away from this and the emperor burning Nurgle when he did get access to his garden is that the emperor's current presence rally is anathema to chaos. It burns it real good. But the emperor can't move toward the chaos gods. Maybe because he's still tethered to his body, maybe his mind is fragmented, IDK. The Lion also almost got killed by the chaos gods when he asked the wounded king how he could be healed. It caused the "shadows" to turn their full attention to the forest and the emperor had to banish him back to realspace or something like that before they raped him

I got some used models, mostly unbuilt except for five Dark Reapers which were complete that the guy threw in for cheap. Didn't think it was going to be a problem until they arrived today. Turns out, he put the wrong heads on them. I'm building my Aspect Warriors with all helmets, this guy did them all unhelmeted. And properly plastic cemented them in too, so I can't just pop them in the freezer. He did include the bits, so I have the right heads, but I need to get the wrong heads off first and I'm not sure how to do that in a way that minimizes risk of damage to the rest of the model.

Anybody got any tips for removing these wrong heads?

I think most women that are into 40k don’t like the game at all. I find it boring and unplayable. I just like to paint and play with dolls.

For some characters like Ghazkull and the Swarm Lord its actually lore accurate because Ghaz gets thrown from battle to battle by gork and mork to raise hell and the Swarm Lord can be birthed by any hive fleet. For Primarchs its just rule of cool.

>>96756380
Women seem to like Tyranids and Eldar the most from what I've seen. They like the painting infact one of our groups players has had every single model of his painted by his mom and shes fucking good at it.

how dose a shift between editions work? if you got your rules late into 10th does that mean you have little time to play your army with everyone else?

depends on the edition.

so that means there's a possibility if you are going into 10th right now you might be stupid because 11th is coming right up
if you were making a deldar army you are shit out of luck because you only had a few months to actually play them?
>>
>>96756610
Depends on whether it's an index edition or a normal edition. Index editions see everyone get brand new rules all at once at the beginning of the edition. They usually do this when they do big changes to how the core rules work. Normal editions you just play with the last editions book until you get your new one

Up to three of any datasheet. Each main cannon weapon variant is a different datasheet.

No. However, there are many russ variants, so that should not be a problem, as you could take up to three of each. Any desire to spam more than three of a single variant would be concerning, and speak to some hidden evil in your heart.

Its nasty with 3 Punishers with AV side and hull weapons. Lascannon and twin multimeltas with 20 shots from the turret is better than a Demolisher removing a tank and having a bunch of heavy bolters with storm bolter. At a cheaper points cost.

I would still run 3 punishers and 3 vanquishers for their cheap cost to sponson ratio. You could delete three super heavy tanks in one turn with that.

They're still all the same chassis in lore. You can run 6 of a variant (effectively) by running 3 commanders with the loadout. The other 4 will have to be whatever other mix you like, but Demolishers and Vanquishers are pretty vanilla.

If you're looking to put 10 russes on a table then you're probably gonna run 3 commanders anyhow.

I was reading something about layouts and the way the rules for ruins work, does this mean this tank is "invisible" to anybody on the other side due to the footprint of the ruin? That's too immersion breaking even for me lmao.

I don't hate em or think they're a crutch like some people, I just can't get em to work for me. I'd rather just take more time with base coats and washes and feel like I have more control over my paint coverage than keep trying to make contrast work.

- marketed at beginners even though they're expensive and require intermediate skill application (deft manipulation, slow drying time)
- also a lot of beginners just let the liquid pool where gravity draws it instead of thinking about light and shading
- noob trap where people zenithol prime black and white, then apply contrast paint which is translucent so the result is desaturated/washed out models
- noob trap where people apply multiple layers of contrast paint or use one of the weird high coverage ones, instead of just using a regular paint of the similar color which is cheaper and dries faster
- a lot of them are glossy finish which I dislike

Basically GW was saved by reinventing the wheel and tricking people into thinking it was a quick and easy way to get good looking models.

That's just because those footprints are way too big for those models

I need advice anons. I'm varnishing my first couple models, and doing a coat of AK gloss before going over them with AK ultra matte using an airbrush. After finishing the first coat of gloss, I realized how much I love the gloss finish on the rifles, it looks true to the finish a lot of wooden stock rifles irl have. Obviously the gloss on everything else looks bad ie the cloaks. Should I attempt to mask off the rifles with blue tack before going over the models with matte, paint on some gloss by hand afterward, or is it just too much work to be worth it?
>>
>>96757362
contrast works fine with hightly detailed or organic models. The problem is trying to use it with models with big flat areas like marines.

Also contrast paint behaviour can vary wildly. Some are almost like a base paint with high coverage, like Baal red
>>
>>96757376
nothing wrong with brushing on a bit of gloss for effects
>>
>>96757362
This is prety well said. I'm more salty about GWs misleading marketing more than anything. I tried making contrasts work for a good while but after having to strip a model for the 10th time I just bit the bullet and bought "normal" paints instead. The uneven result and weird finish was driving me crazy.

it's common to do gloss first since it protects the model more than other varnishes, then final coat to desired finish

I was interested in the layout and how to deploy more than anything, but it seems silly to me to draw a huge box in the ground then put a tiny little barricade and say "actually this box extends into the air and blocks all line of sight". Use something bigger?
The way I thought it worked was that the "footprint" just mattered for whether you are inside it and benefit from cover or not, not that it was an actual magical LoS blocking box.

350 men for a Regiment is crazy small. 2000 minimum is what a real world regiment is, and it can go as high as 6000 to 8000 men. 250 is more like a bloated Company or a thin Battalion. For tanks, it varies wildly. Can be a dozen to nearly 100 tanks and support vehicles depending on the time period and army.

With that said, it's the Imperium, and standardization is impossible and accepted.
