>>96766313I claim this thread for the ultramarines!
https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/fjepqdni/warhammer-40000-tactica-the-shooting-phase-part-2/Its that time again, for GW to tell us how their game works
Exqueeze me but isn't on of the Fire Warriors in cover due to net being fully in line of sight? Shrimple
>>96766329why do this when the edition is practically over?
>TQI do still have my first guy.I was so proud of him lol. I was having a real dunning-kruger experience about my painting skills on that first day
Does this kind of strat alone make it worth stacking 2 blobs of 10 dudes over 4 squads of 5?
Its uphttps://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/fjepqdni/warhammer-40000-tactica-the-shooting-phase-part-2/
>>96766313>TQMy dad threw out all of my old warhams shit some time after I moved out, that was pretty sad
>>96766355READ THE THREAD YOU BAKA
>>96766327I am pretty sure he doesn't have the power of dinosaurs and alien and cthulhu and questionable smut.That belongs to another faction.
>>96766313nope im a moron who gave it to some shmuck im not even sure plays anymore...
>>96766355Seems they are trying to simply cover?
The new upcoming Kill Team box lore is about the T'au trying to reverse engineer Necron teleportation tech. The Space Wolves are attempting to stop them.How much will it affect the setting if the T'au unlock teleportation?
>>96766379Simplify*
>>96766383necron teleportation tech isn't that good for long distances, which is the element that keeps the tau empire still locally restricted.
How do I get a 40k gf?
>>96766340I’d wager 11th edition probably won’t be a Index edition and we’ll use the current books until the new ones and the core rules for 11th will be more of a supplement to current rules.
>>96766366Anon who are you talking about, power of dinosaurs are exodites but what are the rest?
>>96766403
>>96766406nah, indexes generate more sales and more hype, it will definitely be another hard reset.
>>96766403Man it's so fucking annoying that slav girls are so cute but the vast majority of them are absolute cunts
>>96766397Necron can teleport from one part of the galaxy to another if a beacon is set up. Also, it's 100% accurate and safe.
Won't the Crisis Commander still get benefit of cover as he's not fully visible?
>>96766408nids duh
>>96766417I'm a Croat/Serb and can confirm, total bitches...
>>96766313>TQ:Yes and yes
finished these last night and im proud of how they came out!
>>96766326[laughs in dark kin]
god i hate elves
>>96766334The unit is fully visible due to the models not in the terrain, and assuming that’s ruins terrain, it only gives benefit of cover for partial coverage if the model is fully within it.
>>96766444Me too anon. You're getting better!
elves ):<
>>96766418yeah, no, there's a reason why they got bitchslapped by the old frogs, why they use inertialess drives and why they try to hijack the webway with dolmen gates, their shit isn't that good for FTL, the safe, reliable and fast solutions aren't that common or scalable.Take for example the instant teleportation device on sotha, that was powered by multiple powerful ctan shards, and was built on top of preexisting tech belonging to someone else, not necrons', so probably old ones.
>>96766444They look solid, def nice enough from table distance.
>>96766425It's a barricade, not debris or ruins, and barricades only give benefit of cover to infantry. Most people doesn't bother to make the differentiation when actually playing the game since it's usually just all classified as ruins or debris, but the rules are actually different.
>>96766449>laughs in darkSkinyou forgot that S, is it why he wears someone's else face?
>>96766383Carnac, they already have teleportation with Startide Nexus.
Finished my kitbashed furioso dreadnought today
>>96766483Very fun!
>>96766383Not at all. Space marine terminators can already teleport.
>>96766213Sslyth will be back in the Xenos Dogs of War kill team alongside Kyn, Terellian, Dvorgite, and Kroot operatives. Will be usable in 40k as a merc unit for both Tau and Drukhari.
>>96766383It seems clear to me that they’re basically making the Tau a major faction similar to the other major factions. People still think of the Tau as being the small faction with 20 planets in awe of Titans, but that’s no longer the case. Since Damocles, the Tau have:>Expanded massively, potentially thousands of worlds>Built space habitats the size of continents>Built Knight-sized Titan killers, as well as their own Scout Titan sized mech>Embraced age rejuvenation tech on a wider scale>Cloned a knock off version of Space Marines (mostly used for training)>Created a wormhole>Are in the process of creating a Warp Goddess>Figured out how to make a sun go supernova >Created ecumenopoli with populations in the trillions>Created a stealth mech suit so powerful that when Shas’O Kais is piloting it it can solo an entire Space Marine monastery>Have started mass producing rail rifles and other weapons for common usage>Have enough resources on hand that immediately after losing 90% of the 4th Sphere Expansion, they just declare a 5th Sphere Expansion right after and decide to also launch a 6th Sphere Expansion at the same time>Guilliman mentioned them in the same sentence as the other threats facing the Imperium such as the Necrons and the TyranidsThe Tau will never be as big as the Imperium but they’re no longer the faction that the Imperium can wipe out if they just put their focus on them. They’re very much being set up to be a major player on their own.
>>96766451>"Each time a ranged attack is allocated to a model, if that model is either wholly within this terrain feature, or it is notfullyvisibleto every model in the attacking unit because of this terrain feature, that model has theBenefitofCoveragainst that attack."He's not fully visible due to this terrain feature, thougever
>>96766462My guy, the Necrontyr got bitch slapped. The Necrons won.Did you fucking skip the basic Necron teleportation in the novels and codexes, being able to teleport Necrons from one world to the next via the phase out Network? Or did you forget about Eternity Gates? Or the wormholes created by their flyers that link planets together?>was built on top of preexisting tech belonging to someone elsePost the text.
>>96766406I think every edition is going to be an Index edition from now onFor every game
>>96766481Startide Nexus is a wormhole that only leads to fixed locations.
>>96766506Agreed. GW has realized codex carryovers don’t make money, so they’ll change how the game works each edition just to invalidate old books.
>>96766417No single woman is perfect anon.That's why I made my own
>>96766498no, they won't, gw hates cross-compatibility, kroots already have a home in tau, and dvorgites are just the last nonsense name with no idea attached
>>96766352Nah, you'll be using that on Obliterators (which you should be spamming in this detachment)
Hellions are going to get nerfed hard right?
>>96766352What army/unit
>>96766500>no longer the faction that the Imperium can wipe out if they just put their focus on themThat has always the case because Imperium can't affort to put a focus on them and never was
>>96766362I can only assume boomer parents because its unfathomable to me to just throw away someone's else belongings
>>96766505>My guy, the Necrontyr got bitch slapped. The Necrons won.They were both extremely limited in their space travel capabilities, the necrons 'won' for other reasons altogether, not because they suddenly changed how they travelled.Their teleportation gimmicks are short range.
>>96766523Dark Eldar as an army are going to be obliterated from orbit in the next balance patch. GW wrote the book to hurt Skarii’s builds so if people in general are having success, it’ll be bad
>>96766523Unlikely. GW needs to sell their old stock before the drukhari refresh.
>>96766498What can cause a Kin to be outcast? Aren't they biological robots programmed from the moment they are built by the Votann to be loyal to their hearth and home?
>>96766530Agreed. At least give them a chance to pick up their stuff before you just throw it out.
>>96766539Probably ones like Necro squats that aren’t programmed
>>96766539Abominable Intelligence can make their own decisions and do bad shit anon. That's why they're abominable. They aren't hard wired
>>96766362If you live in leeds i might own it now.
>>96766539Nigga, how many stories of robots growing out of the bounds of their programmings or of robots following their programmings to the bitterest of unintended ends do you need before you get that it matters jack shit?
>>96766533>nerf skari>by making the codex significantly betterdoes not compute
>>96766532Not short ranged, just not as widespread as the Webway, and takes more effort.The nodal outposts allowed the Necrons to transport armies and material throughout the galaxy, but it took a lot of energy and a single nodal outpost has a vast but limited range.Their teleport beacons and eternity gates that can instantaneously transport them from one side of the galaxy to the next need to be set up at their target location first.
>>96766539Turns out the Imperium's fear of AI is completely warranted
>>96766565>Not short rangedComparatively speaking with real proper FTL, they're absolutely short range.
I believe in new Space Hulk….
>>96766530Oh he'd never do that intentionally. He was cleaning up the attic and my box with old shit got mixed in with some of the stuff he was planning to throw away. I put it there myself by mistake so it's also my fault somewhat. All my other boxes were stored seperately and he didn't touch these.>>96766554Nah, other country completely
>>96766539
>>96766539>What can cause a Kin to be outcast?He fell short of his duties to the kynholes
>>96766574It takes the Imperium 5-10 years to cross the galaxy with its Warp engines.The nodal network or eternity gates can get you from one edge of the galaxy to the next as soon as you step inside the portal.
>>96766539That’s like asking why the Prinarchs could betray the Emperor. The Votann doesn’t actually build them like that, they still have to have functioning autonomous aspects to them in the event they are cut off from the Votann. The Necromunda Squats are literally that scenario.
>>96766444You have done great!Im glad you took the advice, the pilots look better with the harness in black and breaking up the blue a bit.
>>96766597>That’s like asking why the Prinarchs could betray the Emperor.The Primarchs were thrown into the Warp by their mother before the Emperor could finish his work with them. If he had finished it, then they would have been as hidebound loyal as the Custodes.Can you name a single time a Custodes willingly turned against the Emperor?
>>96766563>BetterIs this a better army rule than full rerolls to hit and an extra AP and reroll charges on every unit for the same price?
>>96766340Because you still haven't learned to play the game the proper way.
Going to turn the jump pack captain into a chaplain.Use the cape or no?
>>96766595They don't have that network, or they wouldn't use dolmen gates.
>>96766607>Can you name a single time a Custodes willingly turned against the Emperor?Valedor/Yellow King
>>96766617cape yes
>>96766444This is some horrible slop and I'm being kind.
>>96766620They did, it's destroyed by the great sleep.
>>96766539We already have a rogue kin model in Blackstone Fortress.
>>96766624Creating an army to kill Abaddon is not betrayal
>>96766498Huh another new xenos with 0 description. What makes you think Dvorgites will get a model and not something like Galgs who have more mentions and are in xenology and we know what they look like
>>96766643That's most likely NOT related to the votann.
>>96766649Dvorgites are in a codex and Galg are not
>>96766647He is clearly not loyal though, regardlessLiterally says Emperor took everything from him and is openly anti-Imperium
Fallen angels in 40k when
>>96766633I mean at least it's better than her previous attempts. I still don't understand how you can you paint at this level when there are millions of fool-proof tutorials on youtube for tabletop ready standard but oh well
>>96766366you underestimate his power.
>>96766617Always a cape if you have it. Space is cold, even for a Marine.
With the rumors about Leman Russ returning with new de-wulfed Wulfen sculpts I was thinking about finally starting a Space Wolf army. What are your thoughts about Space Wolves? Non shitposting answers if you will.
>>96766660Best we'll get is painting firstborn DA models in pre-heresy black
>>96766430more lore on the mutant wowow
>>96766661She said she refuses to learn and improve like two threads back when anon told her to highlight the model. It's just shitposting at this point.
>>96766666>With the rumors about Leman Russ returning with new de-wulfed Wulfen sculptsthere's no such rumor
>>96766539They are still people despite being genetically engineered test tube babies,and they can still have kids the old fashioned way. The squats on Necromunda lost their core, and like any society any group of kin who get sufficiently disillusioned by their society can just obtain a transportation and leave. So trauma, choice, conflict with their kin, grudges that can't be forgiven. The usual stuff.
>>96766656Fair enough, Funny we have/had models for3/5 of those named and the Tarellians have been mentioned since like 3rd and they might get a model alongside a brand new xeno race. They also make a type of gun the new kroot team is using so yeah seems likely they'll come
>>96766666I think they're pretty gay, ultra satan. Vast majority of people I've met who collects them are huge faggots. Only one that gets a pass here is good wolf-anon, the guy with the brick wall background.
>>96766666Absolutely critical to the setting, one of the few chapters that cannot be replaced without the lore falling apart. Arguably the best Primarch with the most incredible Arch, much better than any of his brothers. New sculpts that are gorgeous and obviously we got doggos which puts us head and shoulders above the rest. Awooo with my Brother! Become what you were born to be!
>>96766656galg are mentioned in a codex tooand multiple novels
>>96766666I find them extremely overhyped by both the lore and the fanbase online, but then toning down the wolf everywhere has done wonders for how their models look
Case and point
>>96766694grim
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96766444They are looking good but I think you need to do some touch ups on the metal. The joints between the grav plates and the hull in particular and the eagle on the front. I would also paint the marine's eyes red just to make them pop a bit more and probably silver on the helmets tubes.Still happy with how you are progressing, next try highlighting them further. I think you did some drybrushing but it's hard to tell with where the light is hitting it>>96766483God I love boxnaughts, good work anon.You also need to work on just some touch ups and probably stipping the wash from pooling
>>96766681>They are still people despite being genetically engineered test tube babies,and they can still have kids the old fashioned way.The Votann codex says that the Kin are in decline since the Votann cycles of creating new Kin are slowing down considerably and growing infrequent. If they can do it the old-fashioned way, that wouldn't be an existential problem
>>96766666shitposting aside? very well. They are a pretty decently cool faction if you like the space viking aesthetic but have a tendency to be a little noblebright in writing (which might appeal to you, they are less evil than even the ultramarines. pretty much exclusively good guys who want to save the day). on tabletop they have some amazing sculpts, the new range refresh was the least vomit inducing primaris thing I've seen from marines. And their rules are pretty decent if you want to play them in 10th edition. If you want to paint them in their canon scheme its pretty easy as well, as light blue paints tend to have decent coverage due to how blue dye pigments work and brown fur pelts is very easy to greenstuff more of if you need it. 9/10 faction overall. I would never collect them personally.
>>96766666It doesn't help that viking culture is synonymous with insufferable unwashed weirdos that go to those medieval festivals to larp
>>96766483The abandonment of the Boxnaught has been a disaster for the setting
>>96766721Its existential because their society is built around cloning people. It's their way of life that's at risk, social stability and their access to advanced technology that keeps them from being wiped out.Necromunda is what happens to squats without a core, basically just degrading to Imperial levels of QoL.
>>96766666They got lucky and received a good refresh of units, but their theme is one of the most cringeworthy of the entire game, they're on the same level as oc donut steel fanfictions, and I don't think they actually have enough unit variety or good ways to convert the rest of the marine range in order to collect anything more than a relatively small battleforce.That said, if you like em go for it, don't be a sperg and the cringe won't stick to you.
Finished my Last Chancers, time to get on with this shark daemon thing.How are your spooky things going?
>>96766743>their theme is one of the most cringeworthy of the entire gameI think that's Blood Angels myself but yeah SW are cringe as fuck as well
>>96766663He is not a dinosaur himself, so it doesn't count
>>96766729>>96766746did you get embarrassed by your mspaint antenna
>>96766750blood angels are cringe for everything beyond their theme, otherwise neoclassical shit is a perfectly fitting theme for marines.but all in all yes, blood angels are absolutely in the worst position compared to the main chapters, wouldn't recommend getting into them at all.
>>96766699>no boobplateShame
>>96766403>wait until 40k hits mainstream>be a chad>??????>profit
>>96766755Look at the eyes, he's the dinosaur and the dinosaur is him.
>>96766762Yes, hence the filename of the second image.I resized it down from fuckhuge and must have drawn a line through it but.I don't think Brain needs anymore wires in his head
>>96766613Yes. The fact you no longer have to spend pain tokens at the start of the phase but upon activation is a huge buff. Plus most units got pain abilities that enable them to crack tougher targets than they could before or move a lot faster.People saying the codex is worse than the index are either shit at the game or seething their 3 warp beast packs are gone.
>>96766770>wait until 40k hits mainstreamUh anonPretty sure it already is in there
>>96766666>dude space marines but light blue with beardsBoring, unimaginative. Might I direct you towards chaos legions, which are actually creative and interesting in their design?
>>96766403Do what I did marry a nerds DnD girl and keep showing her models. My wife super got into AoS and has 3 armies. And now she also plays 40K with me, she runs purple chaos marines and blood angels.
>>96766666I hope Russ comes back as a wulfen because that'd actually be cool.Gulliman was in stasisThe Lion got oldI want Russ to be something else and I think the "Odin Russ" thing is lamer than Wulfen Russ.
>>96766329No! I paid for my white dwarfs! You can't give these articles away for free! Aiiiyyeeeeeeeeee
>>96766731The New Dreads are a huge upgrade in my opinion
>>96766791>SPACE MARINES >But with a tentacle for an arm
The new Necron novel confirms that the Imperials use the corpses of troops and civilians to create food rations for their fighting forces.The Imperials are cannibals!
In Voidscarred there is an ork that discusses a gun that is also a volcano, or gun-cano. Shame he is trapped in a gay elf book
>>96766804Odin Russ is definitely what they will go for. They are dewolfing the range looking an new sculpts.
Which paint scheme is better? Or is there an even better one?
>>96766820Is this new to you?Space marines have always been cannibals and corpse starch has been in use for ages.
>>96766666The most cringe and gay legion by far
>>96766822You neglected to mention that his Mek thinks he is an idiot and that the project is moronic even by Ork standards.
>>96766831How does he know there is no joy in slaughter when one turns into a Wulfen?
>>96766829Martyred lady all day every day.
>>96766831He looks exactly like the guy from Game of Thrones.
>>96766831>cringe>gayIt's Blood Angels.
>>96766831Cringeness/Gayness scale:Ultramarines > Dark Angels > Space Wolves > Blood Angels > Raven Guard >all the others
>>96766820In the first book of the Word Bearers trilogy (which is 15 years old) an admech dude wants to use the bodies of dead elysian drop troops to make food and the commander is like FUCK YOU
>>96766829I really love Argent Shroud so I will always say them.I have been collecting them since they were in metalYou can always make your own though
>>96766832You say that now but wait until you get blasted by a gun-cano beam
>>96766852>different people in different cultures have different attitudes towards various thingsWhoa.
>>96766856>metal SoBAnon is a true believer.
>>96766831>Space Wolves>Most cringe and gayYour Dark Angels? Bro???
>>96766517Theyre still gonna release 11e codices, it's just your 10e one will be valid until then
I have a 13th company space wolves force from 3rd edition. I will NEVER use modern wulfen as their models suck so until we get power armoured werewolves again the army shall sit in storage.
>>96766883>dark angels special units>knight stuff and a jet for some reason>space wolves special units>wolf wolf wolf wolf wolfDark Angels manage to be less gay despite being literally named after a gay man and his poetry.
>>96766777Trips of delusionIt's mainstream among chuds, I mean Marvel levels of mainstream
>>96766831He only tells you that if he trusts you. You literally bond with him and he comes to call you his word for leader. He has a couple of endings, but imo its not that wierd if you become really close with a Space Marine they would open up a bit. Especially a space wolf as they are kind of noblebright good guys and tend to be pretty chill with normal humans.
>>96766831
>>96766908>>wolf wolf wolf wolf wolfYou mean "brother brother brother brother brother"
>>96766518Thank you for joining us, Dr Frankenstein
>>96766824>dewolfingAre they dewolfing or are modern sculpts way more generic and clean?I could say they are de-angeling the blood angels or de-gothicing the dark angels.Newer marines have noticeably less bling and variety on purpose.Now I do think they will go for the Odin Russ still because that's what will be the most appealing, but I can dream, Harold.
I was thinking a lot last night about how the Administratum makes severe fuckups all the time. Dealing with the consequences of said fuckup feel like they might make good stories, and help ground things better in the setting when making donut steels. What would happen if during a founding, the wrong Veterans are seconded to a new chapter? Like if there was a successor to the Raven Guard for instance, but they accidentally got sent some White Scars veterans that were actually meant to be sent to a new chapter halfway across the galaxy before some scribe flipped a cogitator backwards?
>all this talk of space wolvesYou know the salamandering is possible too, right? They're surrounded by land dragons and can just as easily pull off the same aesthetic, save for riding a big beast.
Did some new lore drop or leak about Chaos Primaris or something? What’s with that thread about Big E ‘having his science stolen’?
>>96766934They’re both true. Newer players were turned off from the those factions because of painting difficulties so they’re making them less detailed
>>96766848>Black Templars > Raven Guard > Crimson Fist > Imperial Fist > Carcharodons > Space Wolves > Blood AngelsFTFY
>>96766925What a lot of bullshit, goddamn wall of text to compensate for the lack of content
>>96766947I would start a Salamander army tomorrow if they got dragon riders.
>>96766948There already is and isn't chaos primaris.New CSM already have primaris armor parts, for instance.But normal CSMs will not be taller than primaris because primaris are taller on purpose.Possessed, elites (like eightbounds and the EC blade unit) can be as tall or taller.Also fabius bile.
>>96766965Unless FTFY stands for Fuck Tme Fim Yhomosexual, then you didn't fix shit, faggot.
>>96766960This.Funny enough people have said they are actually harder to paint because of all the little gribbles and extra details, so it's the worst of both worlds.Iirc they (Jes Goodwin & cie) said that "marine players either like marines plain, blinged up (christmas tree) or in the middle, with most people liking marines in the middle, yet the early wave of primaris were meant to appeal to the plain crowd, while bladeguards were meant to appeal to the other side of the spectrum.I think they discuss it in picrel.
>>96766934New Dark Angels, Templars and Wolves have enough bling but in the case of Wolves they shifted to a Viking theme from a furry theme and everybody loved that.
>>96766804Wulfen Russ is boring.Odin Russ is better, less embarrassing wolf shit, the better.
>>96767004>have enoughI didn't say they didn't have enough, I said they have less than before, plus most of the bling is often copy pasted.I do think there is a case to be made that they dialed down the wolf stuff for space wolves, but they're just the most affected, not the only ones affected.
>>96767008The viking larp shit is incredibly tired too. We've got jeets saying the'll 'see you in Valhalla' it's got to end. Lean into the North Sea Empire vibe.
>>96767004Best use of the Heresy Wolf helmet I’ve seen was someone used one in their Thousand Sons army as a pseudo-Anubis helmet for a Character
>>96766982>t. shit eating imperial fist player
>>96767008They are the space wolves, they even have a werewolf curse. If you don't like wolf shit you picked the wrong chapter.
>>96767021Nordic culture is just the best. Simple.
>>96766500Well they're planning to invade Ultramar next
>>96767004>but in the case of Wolves they shifted to a Viking theme from a furry theme and everybody loved that.This is the truth.When GW released those dogshit resin wolf helmets originally for SW in Horus Heresy, everyone and their mother shit on both GW and the helmets and made fun of them for how retarded and bad they looked. GW has now replaced the resin helmets with more generic ones and don't even sell the wolf helmets at all iirc.GW taking the new 40k SW and making them less wolf and more viking was an intentional decision seeing the response and backlash they got from the HH resin helmets.
>>96767022>Best use of the Heresy Wolf helmetProblem is that the face is smiling when you look straight at it and not from a side.
>>96766521>Obliterators (which you should be spamming in this detachment)word?
>>96766498Are Tarellians dogs or lizards
>>96767021>muh jeetsI don't care what some drawidian faggot does.
>>96767050consistently depicted as lizard-like
>>96766666I don't like that a number of their units are just reskinned standard squads, and the Wulfen are weird. I really do not like Russ at all and dread his return. Along with his butt buddy Lion he's the primary beneficiary of BL's loyalist handjobs
>>96767040To be fair if there was only one wolf helmet for the sgt then we wouldn't have laughed so hard, but 10 fucking identical wolf helmets was a weird choice, especially since there are examples of SW mk6 helmets already.With the advent of computer modeling one would hope it'd push the medium forward, not invite lazy copy pasting.
>>96767008>>96767021
Wolves are so popular right now, feels great. When Leman finally hit the scene it will be a full blown Folkefest for my Primarch.
>>96767050
>>96767040I'm frankly fine with that.For me the more interesting aesthetic for the space wolves was the viking look, not the werewolf/wolf look.Its fine as a secondary motif but as the primary theme going full wolf just becomes silly even for 40k.
>>96767058why do they call them dog soldiers then
>>96767062Anyone have that gif of the Indomitius Assault Intercessor sgt. And the jump captain?
>>96767082This one?
>>96767079its a native american reference
>>96767062That is true as well, but in general the wolf helmets looked bad, the design was awful. And I am glad they got rid of them.
awoo
>>96767102
>>96767065Viking shit is cooler than the furry shit and GW agrees.
>>96767072Is it bad when I say I care more for traitor guard than any of this nonsense?
>>96767068What I don't like about Space Wolves is that many units don't work in their army. Space Marines are getting new toys and you can't use them.
>>96767115Traitor guards need actual kits and not shitty spiky cadians.
>>96767079because they're mercenaries
>>96767072>kroot>ssylth>tarellianFunny how we have three reptilian merc xenos races
>>96767119Just use them anyway. GW can't stop you.
>>96767104She's apparently the reason Mike Brooks was fired and won't write any new novels for GW. He apparently used funds GW game him for research or something and used them to buy her an army and apparently she slept with him.That's at least what drama trannies are talking about.

>>96767137Lmao
I realize it’s because they want to add variety but the Dark Eldar would definitely use human mercenaries too
>>96767154No diversity allowed in GWs armies!
>>96767137>getting fired over a woman with low german potato-farmer physiognomyGrim. Bro was down bad.
>>96767137Big if true, not surprising.
>>96767154why? humans have little to no qualities compared to other skilled mercenaries
>>96767137Great, now we just need thorpe gone and we might(lol) get some good eldar novels again.
>>96767180Disposable
>>96767154They could employ all races, just take the slaves and get the grotesques to wire them up for obedience.
>>96767180Average humans maybe not but there are a lot of humans and many do. Human mercenaries and pirates already go to the Dark City in lore.Humans also know the most about humans, the Dark Eldar’s primary prey
>>96767072God I hate this image for straight up including random shit as pictures instead of N/A or something even remotely close>Nicassar>are largely sessile, albino bears with long snouts, bird-like skulls and quill-like fur with stubby clawed limbs>image is that of a fucking mind flayer
>>96767184that's everyone to the drewcareysthey don't have many jobs that require human wave tactics
>>96767180Meatshields. Deldar have surreal levels of death anxiety, as someone fated to be nommed by slaanesh should.Not guaranteed to stab you in the back for a promotion.
>was going to paint today>have a big cough>high temperature>chest painsNot like this...
>>96767193But then you won’t get people to trade or sign up with you in the future. A kabal could kill a cold trader or pirate they are trading with but they want to be able to trade in the future
>>96767200I only posted it for the tarellian
>>96767154We already know they do, its been mentioned before in books
>>96767245To be clear I mean on tabletop
>>96766313No. It was some tactical mariens. I’m pretty sure I sold him a while ago.
>weird this model goes on a 60mm base but it came with a 65mm base>google it>apparently "60mm" bases are actually 65fucked, are these the only ones?
>>96767209Devastating, I hope you get better King, take some Vitamin C and drink tons of Water.
Are eldar souls eaten by Slaanesh tortured forever? Is it the sort of torture that she makes her worshippers enjoy?
>>96767257>apparently "60mm" bases are actually 65Excuse me?
I love how a race of evil snakes who are probably Slaanesh worshippers and maybe even related to the Laer are more trustworthy to the dark eldar than another dark eldar
>>96767258Thanks. I'll get some zinc as well tomorrow. It really sucks. One free evening in a while and this.
>>96767120You can already play traitor guard with minimum proxying. Just spam some tanks, vehicles and chaff cultists + other non-CSM humans. Maybe a Daemon Engine too, just lean more into "possessed Guard vehicle"/Defiler/Decimator rather than darkmech dinobots.Daemon Princes are free real estate and don't have to be CSM, if you wanna look it less "buff" just convert one from Vashtorr by removing the wings, swapping out the head & giving it a different weapon.You also got Chaos Spawn, hell if you wanna use some marine statblock just use a Necromunda Goliath ganger as a particularly Chaos-blessed individual of Khorne/Nurgle mark.I really don't get this sort of begging when Traitor Guard & Dark Mech are both already feasible to proxy without much issue. They really don't warrant their own codices much.
>>96767250>To be clear I mean on tabletopWhy? They don't add anything to the existing unit selection just like tau human auxiliary.It's just a reskin of a existing unit and therfore should stay as a conversion concept.
>>96767267Based on AOS and a couple things in 40k, the Eldar souls are being tortured in Slaanesh's belly and could be retrieved
>>9676725732mm bases are also only 30mm bases
>>96767137I want this to be true because he's bad and uses the fact that he is politically active and puts it into his books to shield his work. The Lion book was bad, slightly talented highschool student tier.
>>96767279traitor guardfags are the biggest daydreamers who'll never own any models, they don't actually want a traitor guard army, they want to think about having one
>>96767273>who are probably Slaanesh worshippers and maybe even related to the LaThere is nothing really suggesting that other than surface-level anatomy
>>96767279>I don't get itWe'd like kits?
>>9676728432mm are 30 along the smallest side, they are 32mm along the longest side like almost every other base
>>96767115No, the traitor guard have a lot more going on for them within 40k. The contrainian and degerate position is to think >um well acktually the Scythians are very important to the setting and deserve their own line
>>96767137>the reason Mike Brooks was fired and won't write any new novels for GWBut he won't
>>96767292There's Deathwatch short story that has Slaanesh worshipping Ssylth working with the Emperor's Children. There was also a Sslyth who was a Dark Eldar merc that was actually agent of the Masque. So there is a Chaos connection there. Just seems too coincidental for two snake xenos connected to Chaos to be totally unrelated
>>96767072this image is wrong on almost all entries
>>96767267I remember a passage to the effect that they eventually just break and cease to exist.Personally prefer the idea that they become incorporated into Slaanesh.
>>96767336In WFB Slaanesh ate them and kept them in his belly.
I think they should make at least a kit for every interesting minor xenos.>It's expensive to make a mold :'(They made a 6mm HH game with a shit ton of kits. BL characters get models and GW shits out limited edition models all the time, PLUS the miniature of the month.
>>96767339The Eldar should try to Warcraft 3 him
>>96767294You have them?You live in an era of unrestricted abundance for miniature hobbying between literal thousands of 3D STLs lying around, alternative GW games and other miniature making companies making stuff in plastic?And statblocks/abilities are largely interchangeable between things of similar flavour?Your smarmy one-lined reply really shows how little dedication you have for the concept.You have>Dark Commune>Traitor Enforcer>Traitor Guardsmen>Cultist Firebrand>Cultists>Chaos Spawn>Daemon Prince>Daemon Engines>all the fucking vehicles in the world>Discolord (which has a statblock largely representing the mount & not the marine riding it, you can easily represent it by the HH darkmech dude or whatever tech-abomination HQ your heart desires)>basically any CSM statblock can be represented by just extremely buff/corpulent mortal from other games like AoS/FB/Necromunda, yes your Chaos Chosen of Nurgle can be a fat guy with a comissar trenchcoat and an officer hat, yes he can have that statline, noone is gonna fucking mind that, bitches love conversionsYou really can't beg for more other than bespoke weird-ass recognition from GW, which you SHOULDN'T need by any fucking means.
>>96767343the problem is you think every minor xenos is interesting and not everyone thinks that way
Should I start Sisters of Battle or Emperor's Children for my second army?
>>96767357>You have them>3rd partyWe'd like GW kits.>You have (list of non traitor guard kits)Are you on the spectrum?
>>96767357Beastmen too!>>96767377What exactly do you want?
Why does everyone like the Sslyth so much when they only ever had one fineshit model? Is it just because snake aliens?
>>96767126Kroot are technically Avian rather then reptilian, but your point checks out because Zoat are also reptilian mercenaries.I'm convinced that GW really need to bump a reptilian xeno race up into the setting 'majors by giving a dex and a proper release,'.
>>96767339Many have tried this with no success.
>>96767384Red cadians with spikes, and a female guardsmen with a pussy on the back of her forehead
>>96767359I think there are more people who would buy slyth mercenaries than most BL character models.The problem isn't about how many there are, it's about guaranteeing sales.Making 1k sprues that you know will sell in the projected quarter is better than 5k sprues that will sell at an unregular pace.It's a company, it's not just about profit and margins, it's also about investors report and plans.
>>96767377>i want army out of the box with modern non-monopose sculpts and lots of bits and and and...>i love traitor guard but i am not gonna even try lifting a finger for making them work, thats how i love themYour own impotence is the testament to your lack of dedication to the idea of traitor guard.If you really liked Lost & Damned, you'd already be rocking them because you got even whole dedicated "mortals matter" detachment, all you gotta do is do some light conversion work and NOT be a total paypig by buying cheaper, alternative sculpts that are closer to your desired aesthetics, which DO exist in bulk.Stop being a moron.
>>96767359You're not everyone.That anon is right, 40k is lacking in proper aliensdark eldar, chaos undivided, tau, genestealers, exodites and imperial agents should each have some appropriate minor aliens to put on the table
>>96767398A lizard men/children of the old ones style army made up of tons of disparate reptilian races working together would be a fun new faction.
>>96767394They're cool.
>>96767410>You're not everyone.I am everyone. No one else exists but me.
>>96767394Alien mercenaries are cool
>>96767384>what do you wantA traitor guardsmen range from GW. The closest we ever got was the vraks militia range from FW.
>>96767394
>>96767408Who are you quoting?Maybe you should ask yourself if people ought to indulge in your made up arguments when you're only interested in insulting them and putting words in their mouth.
>>96767427You have no excuses because all the necessary statblocks/detachments exist, you're just a lazy fatass motherfucker who doesn't actually care about traitor guard that much.
>>96767441I wonder if the people in your life have as much patience for your bullshit?
>>96767441Oh so I can run my Ogryn beast handlers alongside my Chimeras and Leman Russ again?
>>96767427The Blooded kit has everything you'd need to make a command squad (sans standard bearer, I guess) or regular troopers, plus it's loaded with extra heads and parts to convert other human infantry models into traitor guard.
Still waiting for wga to put out those not traitor guardsmen to use em for…imperial guard, sadly.
>>96767447It looks like shit, they're just spiky cadians.Why do so many people on /40kg/ insist on forcing people to believe their terrible opinions?>I'd like eldar corsairs>I don't care for eldars or corsairs but you should do X Y Z or you're a daydreaming failure/lazy/hobbylet/retardDo you people have an ounce of self-awareness?
>>96767438Sorry you're this assblasted that people expected somebody pretending to be interested in a hobby would be open to doing any hobbywork whatsoever
>>96767438>when you're only interested in insulting themYou deserve to be insulted for being a daydreaming failure making low-effort posts about traitor guard.If you cared enough, you'd make it work. You clearly do not, so stop wasting everyone's time with your wistful sighs.>>96767446You can do fucking whatever with the abundance of data-sheets you have in CSM codex as well as how nebulous Chaos is, yes.
>>96767446Yeah, beast handlers have legends rules, and you can easily proxy a chimera and leman russ as a rhino and predator.
>>96767470Which CSM datasheet has a bunch of medium weapons and a transport capacity again? I must’ve forgotten that one
>>96767377>abuh buh not first party!!!weird how catachads and vostroyanchads have no problem using things like WGA sculpts to proxy if they want their army yet the army most notorious for being "owned" by daydreamers who don't actually want to own it throws a fit when you suggest proxying
>>96767137>performative leftist turns out to be a sexpestSounds plausible
>GW changed the classic "They are my space marines and they shall know no fear" quote to make it gender neutralGrim. Maybe even dark.
>>96767469>>96767470I too like to invent things about people to justify acting like a moron towards them.Maybe you can use all this energy to better yourself.
>>96767483What's the new quote then?
>>96767479Your demand for perfection will only stymie you in lifeFTR right now you are arguing with a darkmech fan; you could have it much worse in terms of official support
>>96767475The store I play at enforces WYSIWYG
>>96767483You know it's happening.
>>96767495I'm actually starting to think they are female heads and not asian. I am being brainwashed.
>>96763586those are rly cool. U have more of those pictures? Post some cool Leagues of Votann
>>96767494You don't play
>>96767489It was posted like a thread or two ago. They removed "men" from the quote.>>96767500It's probably testing the waters desu
>>96767504That’s news to me
>>96767500Yeah. You are. Get a clue.
>>96767464>they're just spiky cadiansand the Vraks minis weren't despite being mostly upgrade kits for old Cadians?A real traitor guard player would get multiple boxes of Blooded and use it to personalize an army. You're just a fucking hipster and a daydreaming sperg, not a misunderstood soul
>>96767489Mostly the same but they removed "these men who give of themselves to me" and everything else referencing them as male
>traitor guardfag gets exposed as a limpdicked daydreamer>suddenly fem marine shitposting starts upwhat a weird coincidence!
>>96767503Nta but here's one I like.
>>96767491Always Heresy, full rules support and access to all the old FW daemon engines. + Official models soon since they’re in Ligma
>>96767511>>96767516>mooom I'm seething again!
i am paralyzed with indecision on which tonks to buyi like them both but my autism prevents me from getting both
>>96767515There's nothing else referencing them as male in that quote, only that one line
>>96767516I'm not him, just a sad old man reading WD
>>96767500>I am being brainwashedNo you are just a dumbass falling for the most low hanging fruit when it comes to shitposting.
>>96767512>and the Vraks minis weren't?No, they had gas mask and were more corrupted.I get it anon, you give zero fuck about a subject you don't care about and feel the need to police what people can and cannot enjoy, it's very sad but you do you.>>96767516>The angry retards are schizoidsNow that, is not surprising.
Also I mean not to gloat but the captcha really does agree huh?>>96767479>its about the gameplay, not the modelsPerhaps this hobby isn't for you>>96767485You should try to engage with the hobby about converting your stupid toys instead of complaining how you don't have a bespoke ruleset to run themI am perhaps being an asshole but its really stupid to complain about traitor guard when all the faculties to play them are there for a fan of themPeople have executed far more outlandish proxied armies, sorry but you really kinda dont have much in terms excuses apart from lacking your vision of a perfect-to-a-T ruleset, which is never gonna happen and you shouldn't concern yourself with that
I personally don't mind female space marines but I demand they implement them right, not like this custodes fiasco.
>>96767525I don't get the appeal of the dorn tank at allthe russ tank is perfect for the small tank and a baneblade is better for a larger tank
>>96767534Maybe you should calm down and maybe I'll take you seriously, no promise.
>>96767532pssst silly, you can still buy the vraks models and billions other alternatives to match your tastes! Stop asking for out-of-the-box overpriced solutions from GW
>>96767531Archtards have been telling me female space marines were just a week away for 7 years. I genuinely do not give a fuck about any 'speculation' (if you can even call it that and not just baiting for yous and shoving politics in games) until it actually happens. When it happens, I will be critical of it. But I have no problem with women in warhammer broadly, space marines ARE an all boys club and nothing is changing about that.
>>96767550>until it actually happensYou're essentially waiting for it to happen. If you don't speak up, others will do it for you and your hobby will be gone. Like Magic and DnD.
>>96767521Did they ever add support for the Soul Grinder/Plague Hulk?
Is it the deldar fag who is so upset about the concept of traitor guardsmen? What’s his argument points even.
>>96766326>redheadnasty
>>96767137yout better back that up with a source
>>96767558Most anti-FSM people I’ve seen on Twitter also don’t want Xenos in the game. Despite also not wanting FSM the enemy of my enemy is not my friend.
>>96767532Why did you choose an image of the Vraks enforcers kit avoiding to show their plastic cadian legs?Why not show the actual Vraks militia troopers which was just a bunch of torsos?Why are you such a hipster lying faggot and a sperg angry at daddy GW not spoonfeeding you with a limited mini range from 15+ year ago?
>>96767548You were not just shilling printing or recasting all along, were you?You better not have been upset all this time because someone didn't want to be doing things the way you are.
>>96766506I'd be down for this if it meant we might get granular points, comparative WS, and S, A and I stats back. We won't.
>>96767570nta but eat shit, those legs are hreat
>>96766666They're cool. Also, Slaanesh chek.
>>96767572ntg but this is peak "I don't want a situation; I want to complain"
>>96767558It's not going to happen retard. You are literally in an echo chamber thats bombarding your soul with political poison. Yes, DEI injection has ruined games no one is denying that. But if you look at the releases they have been good and (You) are buying them. Models, games, animations. Primaris is far bigger enshittification to the setting than even female marines would be and (You) are still here. If anything, Warhammer has literally only improved since Primaris release. The models are better, and less retarded in design. We even got great Xenos releases like Votann, Eldar and Kroot refreshes this year.
If FSM happens I'll probably leave this place for /grog/ and never return.
>>96767581solution* mother fucker piss shit cunt here comes the "typo; I win" dogshittery
Is the GEOMK an actual god or is it all science based?
>>96767584are you trying to tell me warhammer is healing when 10th edition is utter dogshit?
>>96767570And? The legs were the best part of that kit, since they were easy to kitbash with other stuff
The Vraksfag is retarded. The current Traitor guard kit is great.
>>96767570>Why did you choose an image of the Vraks enforcers kit avoiding to show their plastic cadian legs?Or you want me to be this kind of person?Maybe you could also have stopped to think that them being an upgrade kit doesn't make them spiky cadians.I don't know why I even entertain faggots like you. Learn to behave and not project your own nasty ego on other people. last (you).
>>967675927th was far worse than 10th edition and you can literally still play 2E-4E. There is even a 4E expansion project on this board. So yes. >>96767598This is literally in the running for top 10 GW kits all time imo. Maybe its not in there, but its very close and very good.
>>96767577>>96767594He's not saying that the leg bits are bad you illiterate mongrelsHe's gesturing at a perceived hypocrisy (which I personally do not believe is valid) with the other guy's complaint about Blooded being "spiky Cadians"
>>96767598It’s meh. And it’s got a Killteam logo attached to it so it’s overpriced as well.
>>96767536>Hmm it would be okay if they did it right, but it would be bad if they did it wrongPlease share more of your insights O wise one
>>96767570>I need super special legs HELP!
>>96767581>I don't want a solutionNigga we asked for GW support and you fucks got upset.It's not a solution, that's the problem.People wanted X, you told them to do Y and then when they said "no thank you" you shat your fucking pants.Get a grip.
>>96767608>>96767605
>>96767504I’m sorry anon but that actually is a thing at a number of stores even in casual matches.
>>96767599>being an upgrade kit doesn't make them spiky cadians
>Eldar actually think they can judge humans when they murder fucked Slaanesh into existence >Some took their families and belongings and left, taking flights to new planets or setting out for the great world-ships. Some build a great vault, a safe place into which they could retreat within the webways. >Most stayed, too drugged to move, too overwhelmed by the pleasures of life to do anything other than take part in the day-long rituals in the temples of the new god. I sensed a mighty presence looming over everything, biding its time, waiting its moment. I was not alone in this. This sense of presence, of being at the end of something, gave the revels a desperate fury. People turned to darker pleasures. Blood flowed in the streets, and not all the victims of violence were unwilling participants. All sense of proportion, of restraint, departed.>Now, day after day, night after night passed to the beating of great drums, and dancing and revelry to the sound of hellish, discordant piping. Eldar ran naked through the streets, bodies covered in tattoos written in blood, or woven from scars. Sacrifices were made everywhere to the new god as all vestige of sanity seemed to be extinguished. The priests in gold and purple and green cavorted lewdly in the streets, leading the revels, consuming the potions with the greatest enthusiasm, speaking mad words of revelation that eager-eared listeners drank in. The day of embodiment was fast approaching.>The sermons grew even less restrained, ever more vehement. The priests led the population in ritual changing, in the defacing of the statues of the old gods, in the creation of newer and less wholesome idols. Under cover of night things began to appear that looked like people but whose limbs ended in claws. They danced in the moonlit streets surrounded by clouds of intoxicating perfumes that drove all those who breathed them in to greater and greater heights of hedonism.
>>96767268>>96767257Yeah this is specific to GW 60mm.60mm was originally for epic and had vertical sides. Other bases are sloped sides with the size like 25, 32, 40 meaning the widest parts at the bottom.When 60mm swapped to being sloped sides they left the top as 60mm and the bottom is 64mm
>>96767612Why does it have to be from GW? If I saw a third-party maker selling good-looking Hereteks I'd hop on that shit immediately.
>>96767572You don't have to buy a printer to get printed bits, similarly to how you don't have to recast yourself to get recasts. Both are far cheaper than what GW does, just as an added bonus>someone didn't want to be doing things the way you areAll the resources for your dream projects are there. If you are not ready to push yourself to execute it then it wasn't much of a dream, was it? You really can't argue with that.And for the sake of clarity btw, I am not >>96767570
>>96767623Humans spawned the other 3 so evens??
>>96767625I mean if you can find plastic kits in heroic scale I’d dig that too. The lack of proper fluffy rules would suck in the main game but hey maybe I can take traitor guard to…fuck is my only option fucking trench crusade?
>>96767619They should really flesh out IG regiments with like 2-4 upgrade sprues.
I think the Wolf Guard Headtakers are neck and neck with the BT Sword Brethren for the coolest looking unique Marine units :)
>>96767627Anon, the vraksfag does not care about solutions or doing his homework. He only wants to complain and whine.
>>96767606It's not overpriced, the price is adjusted to reflect the bespoke cardboard punch out tokens you get the pleasure of receiving for as little as €5.
>>96767612>hey there is thousands sculpts of [thing] for your idea, readily available!>no, i am a pig and i want to eat out of premium Citadel trough, VGH why did GW forsake us?!And you ask why people get kinda mad at you.
>>96767639Yeah those 5 euros kinda get inflated in the states.
>>96767639The price it's not so bad by GW standards. The Traitor commissar and the chas ogryn would be separate kits outside of Kill Team
>>96767598I love that kit but it also has the 15-30 USD Kill Team Tax
>>96767628That was retconned because it didn't make sense. It implied humans were so psychically powerful with one planet that they outdid all other races that ever existed. Instead they all formed in the distant past but were less powerful.
>>96767612>wenobody's buying that more than one person is as retarded as you
>>96767623that's a lot of fanfiction to justify your hate/insecurity towards elves.
To be fair, why have kits at all? Why buy from GW? We should all just 3D print from STLs. The sky’s the limit.
>>96767668Humanity spawned the most powerful Psyker in history so it makes perfect sense.
That is isn't fanfiction it comes from Fist of Demetrius
>>96767677Isn’t that the same book that said Slaanesh was killing Eldar in the War in heaven or was that another one
>>96767676>power level fagsoh lawd
>>96767628Why would Khorne be spawned by humans and not the gigantic galaxy-shattering War in Heaven?
>>96767689Because the Mongols, no I’m not kidding.
Apparently the only Eldar in the eye of terror that didn't get consumed by Slaanesh were a few leaders of the pleasure cults, they became daemons. They likely knew what was happening and sold out their entire race to endless torture. That's pretty metal
>>96767674>i am going to take a talking point and blow it out of proportion to absurd levelsI yet still when you do that, it's not a terrible solution at all.GW products are strictly "pay extra for your convenience" but if your convenience is all you're gonna care about then it is natural that some people will give you a side eye for that, especially when you complain and refuse solutions that push you outside of comfort zone.
>>96767537i think it looks better than the original non-hh russ i like the sides of it for some reason
>>96767667because it includes pic related, which would not be part of a standalone traitor troops kit
Can't wait for the reveal that Vashtorr was spawned by Tesla inventing the radio or some shit
>>96767710Thankfully that was all retconned like I said. It's actually really stupid. The only way to justify it is more timey wimey bullshit in the warp and they should avoid that as much as possible
>>96767716>>96767684GW refuses to heed this advice
>>96767705I am not Vraksfag, anon. I was simply making a suggestion at the fact that we should probably just be 3D printing and kitbashing everything at this stage of the hobby. The only reason not to do that at this point is if you want to play at official stores but those places only allow 1000 point games anyway. GW kits are superfluous and frankly at this point idiotic to buy.
>>96767716nta but I agree 100%. I get humans are the main characters and all that but chaos should be vast and bigger than that. Humans are only like 100k years old as a species, Chaos and the warp being fucked is millions of years old. Just leave it at that and let it be simple.
>>96767115Yes, it shows you've got terminal shit taste.
>>96767558I don't care if GW adds female marines.The reason why I like and collect marines is because they are the giant super soldiers in power armor with huge guns and melee weapons, not because of what they have between their legs.If you collect marines because of the latter reason, you are a fag.
>>96767689>the mongols spawn khorne>the black death creates nurgle>tzeentch is brought about by the renaissance>humanity has no curse or spiritual doom hanging over their head to show for itHow can eldar even compete? What suckers.
>>96767722My bad for interpreting it as taking my advice too far. There is nothing strictly horrible with buying GW stuff, especially to support your LGS, to be fair.
>>96767724Humans definitely did start empowering chaos though. The chaos gods already existed but humans becoming more psychic began to juice them hard because of our enormous population
>>96767734Buy paints. Buy kits from other companies with better designs and value. Otherwise we’re buying trash for no reason and that doesn’t make us any better than Vraksfag begging for product.
>>96767732>>humanity has no curse or spiritual doom hanging over their head to show for itHumanity's curse/sin is its own existance and the fact that humanity is responsible for Chaos existing thanks to the Emperor's and Horus' final battle.
>>96767707The power fist dude could be in the sprue, and I could take or leave the ogyrn because the only thing you can change on him is the fucking ehad.
>>96767746>responsible for Chaos existing thanks to the Emperor's and Horus' final battle.love hearing retards parrot a misquote from the shitty HH finale book thinking it's canon
>>96767603>in the running for top 10 GW kits all timeWHY. Give me 10 reasonsgimme 5 reasonsjust 3 reasons why you think that
>>96767732>>the mongols spawn khorne>>the black death creates nurgle>>tzeentch is brought about by the renaissanceyou got it the other way around, realm of chaos says that the 3 gods awaken during those times and thus indirectly caused those events as a result of them waking up, not that those events created the gods.
>>96767760Then prove me wrong.Post pictures of the End and the Death part 3.
>>96767766NTA but that kit is a bits collection dream. I have one for Necromunda because it’s amazing
>>96767746A metaphysical slap on the wrist compared to having your eye sockets raped with barbed wire for eternity.
What's a good retro paint scheme for orks?
>>96767768That's as close as you'll get to a event creating a Chaos god or daemon with the retroactive nature of Chaos.But the point is somewhat moot given that it's no longer canon.
>>96767785I gotchu, best Klan as well.
>>96767785Look up pictures of old rogue trader space orks for inspiration. Seems they didn't have much of a unifying scheme; maybe keep them all unique?
>>96767785every unit should belong to a different clan
>>96766313Yes I have it. No I don’t use it.
>>96767137But mike brooks was not firedwhat the fuck are you talking about??
>>96767791>That's as close as you'll get to a event creating a Chaos godno, it's not, it's practically nothing they were created by other unknown things going on, mankind is a faint blip on the radar
>>96767809There's some thread psycho obsessed with him. Just ignore it.
>>96767804Which one is the first?
I still want a proper traitor guard range.Throwing every insult you have isn't gonna make you more right than me.You making things up isn't gonna make you more right than me.Yeah I know all you care about is winning online arguments, that's why you like pretending people are upset/mad or whatever you like to tell yourself.It doesn't take a degree in psychology to know you take that behavior to anyone who "steps out of line.I don't care about what you have to say.
>>96767810The most powerful daemon ever, that had to be sealed by the Emperor himself insta sword, Drachnyan was formed from Humanity’s first murder. Humans are the main characters even in lore
>>96767774oh so sort of like the Blood Angels tactical squad box?I'll be forever mad I held one in a shop and didn't buy it. That shit is impossible to find NIB now (even marked up to absurd price)If I could send a message back in time I'd tell myself to grab 3 of those.
>>96767825Im with you bro. Im so with you that Im never going to play 40k again until they are its own range or at least a fleshed out subfaction in csm.
>>96767809he's a shill of one of those 40k chudtuber ecelebs. They come here to stirr up shit and drive up engagement and revenue for their channels
>>96767837They are *their own range
>>96767830That's not the most powerful demon ever, it's just an hardcounter for humans specifically.
>>96766521>which you should be spamming in this detachmentHow so? +1S has way better value on smaller units honestlymost targets you fire at are gonna be T3 or T4, maybe 5so bringing a bolter to S5 to wound marines is a better investment than boosting one already bulky unit to deal with another single bulky unit
>>96767817I knew that (you) were gonna ask that.
Should I get this?
>>96767825Stop being a daydreaming hobbylet that wants things and become an actual hobbyist that makes things. Its not even an insult.
>>96767871>I think that's the only way to get that SW lieutenant, don't quote me
>>96767871Do u lik Reavers Y/N
any good suggestions for beastman bit sellers?thinking about putting together an abhuman regiment and i figure a bunch of beastmen would work well as catachansaside from smashing together cadian torsos with catachan arms and ungor legs/heads, was looking for an easier way
>>96767796That already goes into the right direction, seems to lean a bit too heavy into yellow for my taste.Guy in the middle looks cool, bald guys with sunglasses just have a certain vibe.>>96767797Is there some source unified source for that?
>>96767825>people tell you you can make your dream a reality>you take this as an insultvery telling
>>96767879You know what? Show me your big hobby projects and I will kitbash my own traitor guards from 3rd party kits.If you live by what you preach I'll do the same.
>>96767897>Your dreamWhat dream?
>>96767623>Some took their families and belongings and left, taking flights to new planets or setting out for the great world-ships. Some build a great vault, a safe place into which they could retreat within the webwaysThese are the Eldar who judge humans, because they already judged their own kin so harshly that they ran away from them to escape the Murderfuckery.
>>96767893If you can find one a PDF of “Ere We Go Orks in Warhammer 40000”
>>96767885Scour ebay for Beastmen bits
>>96767798That's how I run my dudes
>tqKind of, I don't think he was the first but he was in the first squad so I guess that counts? He sits on my lamp and watches me paint.I did update his face a little a couple of years ago.
>>96767899>whataboutism AND classic "post your models so i can autistically single you out every next time, but im not gonna post mine teehee"lmao you can just google "40k traitor guard army" to see people putting in the effort
>>96767871That is the first thing I bought for SW, nice lil box and a cool Mech.
>>96767885Bestigor bodies might be a good base because they have some armor
>>96767628Given that there are three other ancient fallen races who are:Old Ones, Masters of the Psychic Arts.The Necrontyr, so plagued by sickness that they willingly abandoned their own limited mortality.The Krork, warriors without reason, heed or cause.I'm fully expecting that one day GW's going to look at this sequence, type out 'Tzeentch, Nurgle, Khorne' and hand each of them responsibility for creating one of the setting's primary arseholes.
>>96767924If you play Chaos Marines you could probably make him a sorcerer's familiar
>>96767899ntasurehave my proxy cawl for my darkmech kitbash
>>96767911Gonna write that down ,thank!
>>96767926>Prides himself in things he doesn't do>Tell people to do things he doesn't do>Gets upset when people don't do what he wantsYou are not that basic, I refuse to believe it.
>>96767394this place is contrarian central so if you're ever going to find a place where people think some alien merc that only got 1 modely and briefly mentioned in such and such book should get a 20 model release schedule and mini-dex, it's here.
>>96767911>Remember to attach image challenge impossible
>>96767945Fellow darkmech GODI gotta get to converting up mine too; I've been gathering up a bunch of stuff (genestealers, skitarii, corpse grinders, et alia) to make it happen
>>96767943>the pre-eminent color for Necrons is greenThis gets funnier the more I think about it.
>>96767945That's a cool Imothek based conversion. Where's the head from?
does the flayer virus warp the metal skeleton of flayers or do they modify their hands to have those giant claws
>>96767966nta but it's the sicarian sergeant's head
>>96767951What do contrarians have to do with wanting snake people?Wouldn't contrarians be the ones opposed to snake people?
>>96767970The necrodermis of necrons is shaped by their mind, so it's an expression of the virus fucking them up
>>96767970It happens instantaneously and they "grow". There's a part in the Infinite and the Divine where some warriors are infected and they transform immediately.
>>96767974Looks like it, cheers.
>>96767918not really available in the quantities i would need unfortunately, thanks though>>96767941bestigors are kind of big and the human arms don't mesh well with those torsos unfortunately
When are other factions gonna get a combat patrol for their sub factions
>>96767990>Subfactions >Armies that aren’t Space MarinesKek
>>96767880Yeah that's the main reason I am considering it.>>96767883Yeah they are nice, though the new Scouts look much better.>>96767930It's just that it's not a very good box is it? 10 Intercessors, 5 Reivers and the mecha suit. I think there's an upgrade sprue there as well. It's kinda meh.
>>96767999Krieg and Quin got one so why not
>>96767999harlequins just got one
>>96767975nothing to do with the concept of snake people, rather this fervent need for any extremely minor xenos race to get anything
>>96768001Seeing how SW didn't get a new upgrade sprue either, you can always sell the marines you don't want to make it easier, or use the models to experiment with paint.
>>96768006And its FOMO
>>96768006They aren’t a sub faction. They’re fully bring-able alongside Eldrad in any Eldar army, while you can’t bring an Ultramarine character alongside an Iron Hand one.
>>96767990bring back the militarium tempestian combat patrol and include a squad of aquilons
>>96768010The link to contrarians being?
>>96768026are you fucking serious? you would suggest the sslyth get a kill team instead of getting more space or chaos marine kill teams and think this isn't the behaviour of a contrarian?
>>96767619>>96767570Grabbing these cool renegades bits at Chang's and realizing that the proper legs and arms weren't as easy to find was a major bummer.
>>96768001It aint a great box, no. I was told this from the guy I bought it from too.
>>96767825There is a cult detachment that lets you run 6x10 traitor guardsmen and plenty of legend sheets.Like the other anon said you get infinity+1 bits in the current KT box.
>>96768010I forgot, only Space Marines can get kits for random lore units no one cares about in this game.
>>96768023Stop being pedantic
>>96767945Post more, i love darkmech stuff
>>96767999Krieg? Harlequins? Deldar Covens? What the fuck did this mean?
>>96768049>nobody cares about>outsells entire xenos linesOkay.
>>96768038Why would it be contrarian behavior?What makes it contrarian?
>>96768061>>96768023
>>96768062facts say otherwise
>>96768048How does the cult detachement affect kits?
wip post: im really happy with how this guy is going. i think once it gets enough base coats ill do a black dry brush so that the whole thing is more blueish-black
>>96768062SM fanboys are pay pigsThings that can easily EASILY be kitbashed they’ll pay extra for a specific model You could make a stop motion movie with how many poses there are of the intercessor
>>96768067Any interest outside Imperium vs Chaos is contrarian behaviour.
>>96768001>phobos rune priestNot a space wolffag but that's pretty cool
>>96768077This is not sales data.
>>96768062Im sure Hounds of Morkai sold great!!
>>96768081Picrel lied to me
>>96768081>im really happy with how this guy is goingYou really shouldn't.
>>96768069Alright Anon, I get your angle. Feel like you should make that more obvious though.
>>96768095Probably outsold the whole of the Eldar and Deldar range during their release. That's not surprising.
>>96767766>amazing bits>very diverse and great head sculpts>ogryn kit has great posing and detail work>interesting selection of weapons, both ranged and melee >great posing (every single model is in a different pose, the feet placement is very diverse and prevents monopose syndrome)>appropriate amount of chainmail and spikesLike seriously, the posing on these arm and leg pieces is just fucking ridiculous. Its far better than any marine kit in the last 5 years. The amount of storytelling you can do with this kit is off the charts. I flexing brute, a graceful duelist, and screaming zealot lobbying a grenade, a locked in marksmen, faceless gasmasks, the veteran who has had enough... the work on the scarred face of the commisar. I have bought this kit 3 times, it's just that good.
>>96768088Thank god you're joking.
>>96767907your dream of traitor guardunless you're going to go ERM ACKSHUALLY I'M NOT HIM I'M A THIRD PARTY like you think that's some sort of gotcha
>>96768048You people are jerking this kit off unnecessarily
>>96768097im proxying it for a stormraven and just using ultramarine colours>>96768099oh well. i still am
>>96768060ntg (nor are these mine) but I'll post some neat darkmech stuff I've saved for inspiration
>>96768116>dream of traitor guardThat's a bit vague.>gotchaIs that how you interact around here?
its pretty cool how justified the imperium is everytime they do anything bad. the only one thing im wondering is what exactly the justification for xenos genocide is? i mean it can somewhat be justified if you consider the myriad of diseases and illnesses that can be transferred from other species, but im pretty sure that isnt the reason in warhammer.
>>96768081it's literally one basecoat so far, what is there to be happy about lol, also>spraying over clear plastic
>>96768127
>>96768049>only Space Marines can get kits for random lore units*Stares at you with my grey knights eyes*
Remember that darktide board game? Yeah neither do I.
>>96768132the joy of participating in the hobby and the progress made so far. not everyone is a miserable cunt looking to drag ppl down for the sake of it perhaps youve forgotten what it was like to be new at something and have fun with it no matter what
>>96768133
>>96768141People should just stop considering them real space marines They’re more dogs of the inquisition and their geneseed isn’t from a primarch On the table they don’t get to share all the same toys
>>96768077real facts say the opposite :)
>>96768152I think it was very funny that they put a kasrkin model for the guardsman when darktide players have been asking for a kasrkin outfit + hellgun since launch.
>>96768161
>>96768161This is such a cool ass kitbash.
>>96768163I was gonna say no way DG are this close but then I saw that it was just generic marines.But to think people who play generic SM are barely above DG is scary. I didn't expect marines to be so low or DG so high.
>>96768163>votann above DE>admech and GSC below DEGrim
>>96768174the fact that WE are only 4k games behind DG despite having a quarter of the models and a worse winrate is even more surprising
>>96768174DG spiked because they were giga-busted
>>96768163>all xenos and non-marine armies together have less games played than all marine armies
>>96768184>>96768185Combining those two facts shows how much WE are loved.To be fair khorne is the best chaos god.
>>96768161This looks amazing, great job!
>>96768199They're not mine; just something I saved
>Live in third world shithole with weak currency>Check my LGS>It's just as expensive as GW with shippingFuck
>>96768194What happened? 40kg told me Eightbound ruined the army and that no one would play WE without Red Butchers.
>>96768166how does he sculpt those greenstuff tubes so factory-perfect
Hey everyone, just a PSA about the october collage.We're about halfway through the month. The deadline is midnight the 31st est. I'll start the anchor posts the 24th.The theme is "something spooky". It's up to your interpretation what that means.As always feel free to suggest themes for next month's poll.
>>96768162But they still space marines - just non codex marines. Besides no one even ask for new models - just for refresh of 20 years(if i am not mistaken) old models of termies and pa boys.And it's still hilarious to me that imperium army on same level of neglect as drukhari
>>96768163Damn i though soroitas were popular, maybe they should get squated alongside the other inquisition factions
>>96768194I still am shocked when people here act like world eaters haven't been the most popular god-specific dudes since CSM got addedThey're the simplest, they have a punchy default scheme and goofy distinct helmets, they have the widest appeal>>96768208why does she look like that dude who simped for eren in the end of AoT>>96768211look up greenstuff rollers, they're fantastic for doing tubing/tentacles
>>96768163i didn't realize custodes were that popular
>>96768211This thingI have a tub full of pre-made ones
>>96768224they're easy to paint and you don't need that many of them to start a basic army, they're very popular for those reasons
>>96768215what's wild is my flgs is full of sisters, dark eldar, and admech players
>>96768206Some people think being confident and impolite substitutes factuality.
>>96767154There is such an enemy in Rogue Trader crpg. Deldar thrallmaster which commands few enslaved human warriors. Maybe a soft disclosure of their new unit in 11th?
>>96768155Oh okay. I usually wait to give myself backpats until I actually do something that requires effort instead of expecting validation for the bare minimum. I guess that mentality explains why you still can't even basecoat properly.
>>96768206eightbound do ruin the army but that's why you proxy or convert them into something not-retarded looking so you can still play the army you like
>>96768218>WE: raging, murderous, skulls, chain weapons>Evil blood obsessed maniacs? Cool B)>DG: gross and disgusting>I don't like that>Tzeentch: magic, birds and egyptians>Those are cool, second favorite>Slaanesh: weird deviants that mix sexual with bodily harm>I don't want to puke like DG, but they're not fun to look at eitherThey are all cool in their own way, but World Eaters are the easiest to love, they have the least holding them back.
>>96768238idk why ur having a melty over an early wip post but okay u must be very happy irl
Quick opinion/advice.should I highlight all the claws with a typical black>gray>white highlight that I usualy do for tyranids, or should I do something more in line with the "spooky" idea of this model, as in black>orange>yellow ?
>>96768163>Newest army in the game barely has more players than “1 foot in the grave” Daemons. Grim
>>96767899Also not that anon but heres (some of) my converted vashtorr forcesI have since converted beastmen and accursed cultists tooYou should give it a go to make your own things, it's fun.
>>96768227yeah but i didn't realize that was enough to make them top 7 in popularity
>>96767943I'd say all 3 of the older chaos gods arose due to the war in heaven. Khorne is clearly the oldest of the chaos gods because war is the default state of life. Before you get starship you use tooth and claw. Nurgle is the second oldest and required more intelligent lifegorms to get off the ground. Tzeentch is the youngest of those 3
>>96768278Awesome stuff! Any pics of the beastmen?
>>96768163>nids are that popularlmao
>>96768278>>96768303seconded, i'd love to see some converted beastmen and cultists
>>96768194I'm just bored of WE.
>>96768278>You should give it a go to make your own things, it's fun.If you believe that I don't convert, then it shows that people will listen to the loudest in the room no matter how retarded and obnoxious they are being.The point was never about me converting or not, it was a basic ad hominem anon threw in.But it's okay, seems he was bluffing and he fucked off.Cool models, happy for ya.
>>96768305and so are necrons and DGalmost like starter boxes inflate popularity or something
>>96768267i think the black/grey/white might make it stand out better since the claws get used and worn down
>>96768314you could always yknowpost your conversions you did after several people posted theirs when you asked for themweird that you'd hesitate to show them off on a board about your hobby experiences
>>96768218>I still am shocked when people here act like world eaters haven't been the most popular god-specific dudes since CSM got added>They're the simplest, they have a punchy default scheme and goofy distinct helmets, they have the widest appealthats kind of true about death guard.>green>grossits simple and direct. I think WE and DG are both very accessible, and TS less so and EC barely appeals to anyone. Though it obviously has its fans.
>>96768316>new good kits make factions popular
>>96768321for context, here's how I did the claws in the past.
>>96768316Someone should tell EC this, they’re lacking a little.
>>96768343an EC starter box would be the one to break the rule, nobody wants pink gimp marines
>>96768332This. It's like.. WHY DID HARLEQUINS DIE? When they came out they sold like gangbusters, werent available anywhere, scalped to hell and very popular. (Yes I know they were OP as hell and that plays a role).Then you dont release a new kit for them for 5 years and wonder why they aren't popular anymore. Deathwatch was one of the least popular actually 'supported' marine factions in 10th and its because they hadnt recieved a new kit in NINE years.
>>96768346Their army started with a big discount box and they still have less players than “Tzangors the army”
>>96768303>>96768311Thank you! Here they are>>96768314I dont really understand what's going on
>>96768305Well, it's woman army after all. And there is a lot of women in hobby, so....
>>96768338yeah that looks goodlike the claws get worn down chopping people up
>>96768358He's just seething that he put out a challenge and people rose to it so he has no limpdicked gotcha
>>96768358Nice. Adding these to my inspiration folder. Love that you freehanded the Vashtorr symbol!
>>96768358nice
>>96768350>and wonder why they aren't popular anymoreBecause they stopped being op. That's sole reason. And that's why they sold out fast at start. If they would be released with ruleset of DEldars nobody would buy a shit
>>96768322Why would I post them?There are some great people here but that doesn't mean I want appreciation or validation from them.And your "it's weird/funny that" is exactly why I'll never post here: I don't care for faggots.Anon started a shitty argument, made shit up, I called his bluff and that's it. I don't even care that he has models, if he indeed was such a great hobbyist then I would have gotten ahead and started traitor guard, but let's be very real, it was way, way more likely that he was just a argumentative lying fag.Really happy for the people showing their models, but I only have respect for a few posters here and those smart enough to keep lurking.
>>96768218World Eaters have always been on topYou know itI know itEverybody knows itThey were the only god specific marines to get an appearance in DoW1 for a reason, and it only served to bolster their popularity
>>96768380Deldars sold out too retard. It's literally cope to say its just because of OP rules. Deldar have dogshit rules and people like Elves anyway. Are you to autistic to conceive that not everyone only collects marines because that's what you do? Votann have seen a huge surge in popularity because of their wave refresh. Tbh the only thing I saw that kind of flopped when it got a huge injection of new models (and not because it didn't appeal to the people who liked it) was the kroot refresh.
>>96768400>I toootally have a bunch of kitbashes I just can't post them because uh>uhm>uhlmao, every time
>>96768314Lemme see your cool dudes anon! Here is the latest wip for my space marines. >>96768226Do you bend the tube into place after it’s fully cured? I mostly use milliput for sculpting but I know Greenstuff is rubbery. Maybe I should put one of those on my Christmas list.
>>96768373>>96768372Thank you again!The only place I could find the Vashtorr symbol was on the dice they released, at least at the time.I'm probably retarded but I couldn't find the one that's easy available now lmaoThese were the cultists
>>96768368>put up a challengeTo who, anon?There's only one guy who ought to be seething rn.
>>96768408nta I have a ton of inquisition kitbashes but I save those for a couple painting discords I'm in and don't want to be doxxed / associated with 4chan
>>96768408Not uhm uhm, anon: I don't want to post here because this place sucks ass, because of you.>>96768420He's just baiting.All he does is argue; he'll pick someone with a point and derail; it's not about the point, it's about dragging people down to his level.
>>96768409Greenstuff is super flexible so normally I can just put it into whatever place I need to.If i make a big batch I will bend them all a bit randomly anyway just so at least one is probably useful. If I need a specific bend I will make one up fresh, leave it a while so it's not super soft (fresh greenstuff is floppy) and then put it into place.
Where are the legends rules James.
>>96768409>far left beakiehis pose and sunken down head makes him look like one of those cartoon mafia goons with the giant shoulders
>>96768435why are you here if you're so thinskinned that a few people giving you solutions to a daydreaming problem makes this place suck ass
>>96768439GW can’t be bothered to write a sentence to allow EC to use Heresy models. You think they’ll make new ones for the new Heresy stuff?
>>96768448Don't bother, he will just keep deflecting and claiming new reasons why he can't post his modelsHe's just here to stir shit and beg for attention
>>96768405>Deldars sold out too retard>>96768163Loo. Lmao
>>96768411nice, they look absolutely gross
>>96768458they didpeople have been posting the temporarily sold out online pic showing 90% of their models unavailable for a couple weeks now
>>96768400that's a lotta words for admitting you're a nomodels lmao
>>96768405>Waaa you not agree with me that's mean your are marinefagCope harder, knife ear
kitbashing is the most fun part of the hobby for me. everyone should be more open to it.
>>96768458deldar codex came out a few weeks ago, but that doesnt mean they didnt sell out.>>96768475jesus fucking christ how pathetic. I'm not a knife ear, not a marine, I'm a grown man with kids who likes to assemble and play with toy soldiers.
>>96768460That's what I was going for so I'm glad
>>96768448>>96768453>Why are you hereLeaks and seeing the few decent people here.You're not giving solutions, you act like a cunt and then you have the audacity to pretend you have some high ground to stand on.That's why you lie and project your behavior onto others.The most pathetic thing if how you think people are dumb enough to not spot your behavior from a mile away, you all use the same tactics.Maybe if your father actually cared for you you'd not crave the attention of other people in the most obnoxious ways possible.You annoying people does not make them less than you and you certainly not better than them.Last (you).
>>96768476Can’t kitbash in 10ths environment. Someone will scream that you’re trying to cheat, lovely models btw
>>96768491>That's why you lie and project your behavior onto others.Who's projecting? You're literally refusing to do what others did when you asked >>96768400
>>96768439Sick ass model. I want one for my Black Legion but I ain't buying one without rules support. FUCK YOU James Workshop!
>>96768483Some fags on here live their lives via 40k factions, its well sad
>>96768496spoken like a true /v/ermin nogames
>>96768483>I'm a grown man with kids who likes to assemble and play with toy soldiers.And you arguing on internet with some retard(me) about this toy soldiers. Rethink this part of your life.
I like Space Marines
>>96768439They don't exist because they aren't planning to make any.
>>96768517that's what makes you pathetic
>>96768496thanks but literally nobody has ever said that to me, and I go to a number of tournaments. even these guys that I use as "navy breachers" are fine because nobody cares about their loadout beyond "the guy with the melta gun is the melta gun, and the guy with the banner has the demo mine"
...
>>96768531Lies
>>96768537Whatever you say. At least i like shit talking here. And you are throwing tantrums immediately "hurr durr i am serious man"
>>96768542No, i really do. I just don't like to show it up here since i am shit at painting.
>>96768517No, I don't think I will. I work from home and am quite comfortable spending a few hours a day alt tabbing from my work to post on forums about my hobbies. My point is true, the Harlequin range and the Dark Eldar range are sell just fine. They don't need to sell as much as marines to be healthy for GWs product catalog or overall income. Marines would sell less if they ONLY made marines, the ecosystem is an important part of their business model. Dark Eldar players unironically help sell marine models. It is absolutely true that abandoning a product line causes a decline in interest over time, and supporting it increases interest. Marines are the oldest product line with the most support not just because they sell the most, they sell the most because they get the most support. They ARE the main characters of the setting, which is 100% fine and okay. Petty factionalism is pointless because it's one hobby and people will always have different tastes. Harlequins still have continuous interest from hobbyists, gamers and secondaries and succeeded more than the Ynnari did but had their support cut causing a decline in interest. Most likely it WAS the Ynnari debacle that took resources away from Harlequins, which I think everyone especially Eldar players agrees was a failure on GW's part both as a story and a model range. And I'm not foolish enough to think they will get new kits in the future, as GW is more likely to expand on Corsairs and even Exodites before returning to the Harlequins.
>>96768541Quality post sister, but you are allowed to type in the sisterhood. Just not speak. It's a vow of silence, not a vow of illiteracy.
>>96768563Shes using speech to text
>>96768476100%Even when I dont HAVE to kitbash, I do my best to mix it up, even a little bit. It just feels weird to have a mini that looks like someone else's mini.
>>96768541>Going to get squatted in favor of femstodesFeels bad
>>96768546>At least i like shit>>96768537
>>96768576I'm probably the only retard who has more than 10 Sisters and I am very upset at this
is it possible to build an IA army without using models from other factions to fill in the gaps? Or do they have too few units?
>>96768575Nice glow on the custodes dude
>>96767137I believe this 100% without the need of a shred of proof
>>96768588>is it possible to build an IA armyNo, they aren't an army.
>>96768588You can, but do realize IA is essentially a conglomeration of a billion subfactions. Imperial Navy, Arbites, Inquisitorial Agents (a warband) and temporary elite assets like Gray Knights, Deathwatch, and Sisters of Battle. So, it depends on what you mean by other factions. If you mean can you make an army of just inquisitors, their bodyguard units and their transports... only technically yes, and it will mostly be unaccompanied Inquisitors. But the point of IA is that Inquisitors can call on a huge range of retainers for their warbands and operations to accomplish an objective.
