>>
What army do you like the fluff for but would never collect, and why?
>>
I don't really get the female marines thing. The Sisters of Battle already exist and they're honestly cooler anyway. There's already a girl's club and a boy's club and there's nothing wrong with that.

And honestly, a male SoB would be worse than a female marine, since the original reason that only guys became marines was a technological limitation. They needed male physiology to accept the gene-seed. But that can be overcome through technology of improving the gene-seed process. So hypothetically female marines could exist as soon as the technology allows it.
But a male Sister should always remain impossible in my opinion since it's an actual in-universe law that says the church cannot have men-at-arms. So there's an actual rule against it, whereas the male only marines was just a limitation that can be overcome. So I'm not 100% against female marines, but I am 100% against male Sisters.

That being said, I would personally just leave it all alone. There's no need to change anything.

Space Marines arent sisters, they are different, tourist. Space Marines are the poster faction and thus have 1000 different themes. Viking Sisters dont work, athesist sisters dont work, tank and machine obsessed sisters dont work. Due to their nation they HAVE to be part of the ministarum. Some people dont want that. Some people just want female marines in their army, because they are seperate factions. Read the lore.

>That being said, I would personally just leave it all alone. There's no need to change anything.

Could say that for every single lore change since rogue trader. Not an argument.

He did lore videos before involving himself into the culture war. His warhammer videos go back 10yrs. There's not much to like about the game especially in it's current state. But time spent in the franchise or having products doesn't make you a tourist or grifter. Both Pontius and Arch are trying to preserve what good is left in the franchise. They're naive for thinking they can save a sinking ship. The tourist wants to change shit to accommodate their subjective sensibilities...like you

Just noticed if you meant to quote the heldrake post, I paint chaos trim ontop of the base coat. I usually don't paint the inside of the trim much I just paint the top and use nuln oil or any dark wash in the crevices. That minimizes most mistakes for me. Best mistake fixer is a fastly available sopping wet & clean brush and wick away any overpaint.

It's about tearing space marines down. Space Marines have themes of masculinity, knightly brotherhood, honor, etcetc. Just look at all the franchises around you. Amazon photoshopped all the guns out of James Bond's hands because it's "violent" (they backtracked this eventually), all the old Star Wars heroes are disrespectfully killed off to make way for new ones, in Terminator John Connor is irrelevant and replaced by some chick, etcetc.

You're right that there's no need to change anything, but anything is now involved in the culture war whether you personally involve yourself or not.

Blood Ravens are a secretive chapter with most of their past lost/hidden.
They had to deal with heavy losses multiple times, putting the future of the chapter into danger.
Around that time they fought off a tendril of hive fleet leviathan that was threatening their recruitment worlds, before their chapter master (also master of the librarius) was found to be a traitor, following khorne (yes, khorne librarian).

They have a lot of librarians compared to standard chapters.
And no, they don't "steal relics", that meme comes from DoW2 with a lot of the fluff text on items (RPGesque game) referencing different chapters (to pull from the whole of space marines instead of just blood ravens).

They are very cool.

Its not repealed. The ecclesiarchy cant have an army, they can have fucking bodyguards. In the IMPERIUM. The most dangerous fucking "nation" imaginable, filled with gangsters armed with weapons that would make modern militaries shit their pants. Crusaders do not violate the Decree Passive and its explicitly explained so in the lore, it exists in a gray area no one cares about and they are very secretive and rare.

Frateris Militia exist in the old 3E lore as well and they don't violate the decree passive either.

they have tons of librarians and can see the future. they were written to be thousand sons loyalists but GW has retconned that (but they are pretty clearly still thousand sons loyalists).

the C.S.Goto books were explicitly stated to be non canon because ADB absolutely despises the idea and has said so many many times. Also the books were very poorly written. But Ahriman is there and makes it pretty clear.

What does posting my models prove? And why is that so important to you? None of you have posted models, and, even if you did, it literally proves nothing especially since I don't care to see them even if you showed them to me.

>>96770082
When did I defend secondaries and tertiaries? The claim was arch is a tourist and grifter. I have yet to see evidence of that. Nor have I seen arch's models, but I don't care to. Also would I have to be in a constant state of model ownership to not be a secondary or tertiary? What happens if I own models from other studios and use them for this another game?

>>96770092
I think it's more that GW is trying to push them as SM equals or better instead of making them their own thing.

It needs to be talked about and defended otherwise it dies. Star Wars, Star Trek, DnD, MtG, etcetc have all learned the hard way. Gatekeeping your interests is good. I'm not saying you have to do it here. But if you're not willing to do it anonymously, would you irl?

I think the political discussion is silly, politics is very simple: do powerful people use/abuse other people? If yes, bad, if no, good.

Imperium? Bad.
T'au empire? Bad.
Chaos? Bad.
Orks? Bad.
Eldars? Bad.
Votanns? Bad.

In the end, bad people are manipulative and know that isolating you and pointing fingers help them.

I don't think it's much complicated.

In lore they become superhuman by genetic inheritance from their primarch fathers, who are male.

Out of lore because they are themed around masculine brotherhood and camaraderie, which men like and is becoming increasingly rare in fiction, and no offence to women but fundamentally they just aren't able to fully embody that.

As someone who is still struggling with finding the perfect chapter, I'll say: get a chapter you like, and try and make it a chapter you love.

Or: collect tiny amounts of models from chapters you like: a squad of salamenders with a rhino, black templar vets with a dreadnought, some howling griffon scouts; small tiny projects that lets you figure out "what do I like in a chapter?"

It does get a little complicated when you factor in the different treatments different species get tbf.

For example, the best place for an Eldar to live is probably on a craftworld.

The best place for the Votann is probably with the Votann...although there are Votann living amongst the Tau as well.

And the best place for a human is easily the Tau Empire.

Dark Eldar is the worst race to be. Most DE are low class vatborn, often slaves, and their entire society has no loyalty, peace, or after. Plus after you die your soul automatically gets tortured for all eternity. They deserve it but still that’s a yikes from me. Most imperial worlds are civilized worlds that kinda suck but aren’t that horrible, you see them in the Cain and Eisenhorn novels. Paradise compared to the Dark City

The most apt comparison I can make is like...Dengist China compared to Kim's North Korea. Obviously Dengist China is still a one-party authoritarian, but there's food, luxury goods, a general sense that if you don't shake the status quo you'll live just fine, etc.

The upper echelons definitely try to delude themselves into thinking their lifestyle is superior and free and the lower masses don't really have any good alternatives. There's a couple short stories where other Eldar point out the delusional hypocrisy of their lifestyle to them and they just kind do laugh it off like they expect all the Eldar are ultimately damned no matter what so they might as well earn it.

>‘We all perish, Vect. One day even you shall pass from the mortal plane. The doom that devoured our people… She Who Thirsts will never be sated, no matter how many other souls you feed to her.’

‘>So I should hide myself away in one of your little magic stones, Jain Zar? I should imprison myself in life and death, be a good slave as Asurmen would teach us?’ Vect leaned over and said something to one of his functionaries. The eldar disappeared into the subdued crowd, who listened to their lord’s tirade with studied indifference or feigned admiration. ‘Is that the grand plan to save our great people? To hide forever? To smother She Who Thirsts with the blanket of our deaths?

‘>I look upon the doom that we created, every cycle. I feel the gnaw of it, the lure of subservience, the promises of glory. I face it, accept the whole truth of what it is, and I fight. Am I a predator, feeding others to the beast that stalks me? Yes. And a scavenger too, for I will fling whatever morsel I find into that maw to keep it busy for a few more moments. Every heartbeat is precious to me, but do not think I am afraid of death. I have drawn more out of life than any other of our kind.


‘>You are not immortal! You are dead! You think and move and fight and… There is nothing to you. A puppet of Khaine’s memory, strings twitched by the death gasps of Asuryan. I live! I am truly immortal! Let the Prince of Pleasure court me, I do not need his favours. I have a city, a kingdom of countless souls to command. I can extinguish suns and destroy worlds, what do I care for the trinkets of power the Great Enemy dangles in front of me?’

>Vect had endured the teasing and the threats and the knowledge of his certain damnation for all of that time, for a generation living and dying, and clung to his delusions of immortality as one who lies upon a deathbed knowing that there is no cure, but calling for the physician all the same.

The frateris militia don't break the rule because they form at the start of a crusade out of volunteers, and disband at the end of it.

And don't even think about saying something stupid and empty like "no you don't have any models", because why would I lie, and why would I even be here in the first place if that was the case? this has never made sense as an "argument" (which it isn't anyway) and has always made the speaker look like an off topic ad hom loser grasping at straws because they don't have anything real to say.

Every individual aspect shrine has slightly different color schemes and it's common for them to rep their craftworld's color scheme a bit
>>
>>96770727
Technically every shrine has their own motif. Although they tend to stick to the standard color scheme of their Aspect, there is no real reason you can't deviate from that. For instance, the Ebon Witch shrine is predominately black instead of the bone color that is typical of Howling Banshees.

One truth of warfare is that, as time and technology advance, the more accurate we get at killing each other over longer distances. First it was the spear, then the bow, then the inaccurate firearm, then the accurate firearm, then the cartridge firearm, then the precision long distance firearm. Nowadays we can be miles away and hit someone in the head.

Parallel to this is artillery. From the roman age to the classical era to the Napoleanic era, one that got better and better is being increasingly accurate over longer distances.

And don't even get me started on drones. We can place a non-explosive, kinetic only missile payload into someone's window of their estate to tear them apart with blades from literally the other side of the planet now.

So when I see a warhgammer image of a super advanced space elf race who has survived and evolved for millions of years who have planet space ships and webways and all this shit, and I see art of them needing to hand deliver their payload on the end of a lance on a jetbike as if he was jousting, it just makes absolutely no sense. Nothing about it makes sense. He would actually be literally miles away.

But that doesn't make a cool picture, and it doesn't make a neat tabletop game where people punch each other despite having lasers, so I know WHY it exists, but it always makes me laugh nonetheless.

Gav's version of it was not bad I think
>The sky split with a crack of thunder multiplied ten thousand-fold. Light burst from the maiden’s eyes and open mouth. An undulating aura of gold and silver poured out of her in a stream, lifting like wind-blown motes into the sky.
>Illiathin saw others likewise afflicted, faces turned skywards, their spirits rippling in a shining thermal from their bodies. From across the city, from all across the world, across all of civilisation, the essence of the eldar was ripped from their bodies.
>The spirit-stuff coagulated, becoming a seething cloud of psychic energy that roiled and burned and screamed inside Illiathin’s head, as though he were both part of the storm and watching it. Something monstrous thrashed and howled at the heart of the cloud, straining, snarling, pushing to break free.
>The spirit-stream ended. The empty carcasses of the afflicted eldar toppled to the ground like dolls dropped by some obscenely powerful child. Illiathin stood rooted to the spot in abject terror as he felt the deaths of billions of his people. A background psychic chorus of life that he had taken for granted since birth, suddenly silenced.
>Everything else, everyone else, had gone. He felt utterly alone for the first time ever.

Thinking of painting an unpainted but assembled Death Reaper I have in a spooky scheme for the collage. What should I paint it as if I do? Any interesting green stuff additions to make it scarier you can think of? It already seems pretty spooky on its own and it will never be on the level of the anon who put a chopped off finger into his model.

Jeez lady, ease off the pedal.
Paint your stuff completely before you buy more, else you'll be like those redditor/boxposters or burn yourself out like >>96771341 said.
>>
>>96771370
You’re gonna build up a pile of shame no matter how dedicated you are to painting. There’s a weird psychological interaction as you go, where the more you have the less you usually want to paint because the task just gets bigger and bigger. It’s a good idea to have small amounts that you buy, build, and work on. This way you don’t get overwhelmed later on as projects build up.

There’s a trope of weird smiling dues and elongated faces in Analog Horror nowadays. Stuff like Mandela Catalog or that Boiled guy. Trying to emulate that feeling or effect on the mask would be neat I think.

This is exaggerated by memes. They were having too much fun and were against a whole hive. They had 3 Kill Teams and lost 1 Kill Team to Genestealers, then they stopped having fun and completed the mission they were assigned to.

varnish done, happy with the results
I was surprised by how much matte killed the metallics, but I just went over with gloss on particular areas and left the armor since it looks worn. I'll have to cook up something when it comes to my vanguard squad so I don't ruin the helmets though.
>>
>>96771739
How?
>>
>>96771760
Use the satin varnish from Vallejo it's something between matte and gloss. It won't kill your metallics.

Would you recommend trying out varnishing? I've never done it for any of my models and some are years old without losing paint. What are the upsides you've seen?

Am I Crazy or should GW reduce the range on the majority of weapons in this game?

varnishing is a scam by varnish companies to sell you varnish

the game is already hilariously short ranged. a railgun has a 72" range. thats less than a soccer pitch.
>>
>>96771785
yea, I'll probably finish this squad out the way I'm doing things, then try out some satin and other mixes on unrelated models before moving onto vanguards and their big dome heads. The upcoming chaos model for warhammer day might be a good test subject for satin

>Having your army deal 1 wound on average during shooting phases because not only are you hitting on 5s already but the guns themselves are also just weaker versions of imperial weapons
>Still be worse at dishing out melee attacks than World Eaters, Blood Angels or Space Wolves who can also shoot way better.

Orks are fun but be prepared to lose every single game because Orks do nothing well that an army doesn't do better and anytime the army gets anything remotely strong it gets nerfed into the ground a week later.

>>96771799
I'm new to it to be honest, the reason why I started is when assembling these guys I noticed some paint rubbing off just by handling their sub assemblies, mostly the red and brass showing the underlying base coat. It's been a learning experience but so far I've noticed the paint no longer rubs off, transfers were much easier to apply over a gloss varnish then lock in with gloss then matte over top hiding the seams, and the finish looks genuinely nice and realistic with matte on cloth, and gloss on the lights, lenses, guns, etc.

If you have no issues with paint rubbing off then you're fine without, but if you want to play with different textures or finishes it might add some extra detail to your miniature painting since no two paints really dry to the same finish, and you can even out blends or shading that way.
>>
>>96771862
I do not, any way I can emulate it?
>>
>>96771873
Cheers for your thoughts, I was asking because I figured you were new to it so might have a fresh perspective

No ghosty faces on the axe? :(
>>
>>96771929
Next time. I figured the bloody axe would harmonize better with the heads on his hand, keep everything more on theme. Sometimes less is more.
>>
>>96771909
No problem anon. In that case, one extra thing I learned that may be useful, acrylic varnish is extremely easy to just brush on like paint. I picked up a cheap airbrush to do the job because I was worried brushing would apply it too thick or unevenly, but after doing different varnishes for different areas and touchups with a brush it really doesn't behave in any weird way, can be thinned with water, and dries evenly without any pooling or texture. If you can paint, it's difficult to fuck up

I just attached the models to shot glasses with tack to keep my hands off, swished them around in water and light dishsoap to get any skin oils or dust off them, rinsed in plain water, dried with a hair dryer and left the varnish to cure for 24 hours. before working on them again.
