Let Chaos idols take this thread!
>>96793407I'm genuinely still puzzled by this meme
>>96793399>TQI’m gonna be honest I don’t give a shit about 40ks planets or it’s galaxy or anything, but I wouldn’t mind reading about the realm of tzeench.
>>96793411Not chaotic enough I guess
>>96793399>TQI'd like to one day see what just right outside the galaxy looks like or maybe see deep warp
This ai slop has to stop
>>96793426Exploring the Deep Warp feels like a “Break in Case of Emergency” for James Workshop.
it's a bit far out, I probably won't be able to start painting them until next year, but I've got two good ideas for how to paint my Harlequins. First off is black and red, Harley Quinn colors. There's already a canon Troupe with that color scheme, and if somebody saw them and was like, "oh hey, like Harley Quinn!" I could say, "yes, these are Harlequins" and I'd really enjoy keeping that whose on first style bit going until the other person got upset or walked away.The other option is from this harlequin (not tm) art I found. I think that scheme would look fantastic on the Harlequin(tm) models.Thoughts?
>>96793426>>96793447There is no such thing as "deep warp". It all comes from a misreading of the novel Path to Heaven, which just describes what's beneath the surface of the Warp that Imperial vessels navigate in.
>>96793464Then what is the deepest part of the Warp called?
>>96793447Define deep warp, because I think this has been explored already multiple times in 40k, I think even fantasy and aos has well.
>>96793407>>96793424Leave chaos to me.
>>96793476Okay I think I hate the skull masks now
Last thread was one of the worst I've ever seen on /40kg/. Lets try to make this one better, whall we?
>>96793493You aint ready for whats coming anon.
>>96793493Americans are sleeping now. Don't worry.
>>96793495>love
>>96793493>aislopper throoder>idol ritualposterForecast isn't great but I suppose it can end up better
>>96793496It's not even midnight EST
Fella core
>>96793458>I'd really enjoy keeping that whose on first style bit going until the other person got upset or walked away.this will never ever happen
>Terminator pre-orders open up at my LGS are technically non-committal>but it also means they’ll just order however many according to what people show interest inI’ll probably get one, but it does make me a little anxious.
>>96793523I still don't think it's a good box.
>>96793539It's a great box if you sell off the ugly chaplain and replace him with a good s culpt
>>96793496What lol? its like 7pm on the west coast..
>>96793542You also get 5 normal termies you don't want or need because you have too many already.
>decal anon is a west coaster WRITE THAT DOWN
Chat, I finally got it, my box of imperial fisters arrived.
>>96793543>>96793512It's monday. The kids are off to bed.
>>96793551He previously said he's a serbian.
>>96793539>look at what they need to mimic even a fraction of our power
>>96793562this looks worse in every way
>>96793554Honestly this would give fists the personality they so desperately need.
>>96793549Since the Assault Terminators are dual build you can just use the extra arms on the regular Terminators to make it 15 Assault Termies. Though it looks like the Leviathan ETB Terminators, so you’ll have to do some peg snipping.
>>96786962>But fuck that, just go for the faction and whether it clicks for you.Correction retard, he explicitly said to get whatever even if it's a bad idea
>>96793399>What areas of the 40k map do you think need exploringI would like to see the process of turning an Imperium world into a Tau world in its entirety. Cleaning up the polluted atmosphere, tearing down the hive cities and replacing them with clean arcologies, scattering the population amongst the rest of the Tau empire and sending in a mixture of auxiliary species and Tau to live on the planet, infrastructure, technology, education, etc.We know that the Tau are superior to the Imperium in common, every day technology. That's the sort of thing I want to see more of.
>>96793562The BA Termie kit got squatted just now. According to Valrak there's a separate Blood Angel Termie kit coming so this box is essentially only for Ultramarines and their Successor Chapters because the special flavor chapters will all have a unique Terminator kit. Black Templars apparently might get Sword Brethren Termies as well.This box is a trap. Do not redeem.
>>96793522I'm fine with that, a lot of my life is setup for punchlines that never come
>>96793575This box is not that bad. Really these guys look pretty good, even by Nu=shit standards.
>>96793572>scattering the population amongst the rest of the Tau empireDoesn't happen. They are placed into the lowest auxiliary cast and confined to their planets like in elemental council. Only way off is if they force you to go to war for them.
>>96793575Would be ecstatic if Space Hulk rumors are true, a board game is much either to rope friends into playing, I won’t have hope until I see it.
>>96793588They are terminators so obviously fine but are of very limited use as normal termies are gimped in flavor chapters like wolves and dark angels.
>>96793588That doesn't really make sense, we know that the Tau have evacuated humans into the rest of the Empire before, particularly when hive worlds are involved or if the citizens are endangered.
I've been in a Tau mood lately. What's a kit I should get to scratch an itch?No stormsurges.
>>96793575>more space marines on the way YEAHHHHHHHHH FUCK YEAH THATS WHAT WE FUCKING NEED WOOOOOOOOOOOO BUDDY MORE FUCKING SPACE MARINES YEAH BUDDY LETS FUCKING GO, MARINES, MARINES, MARINES!!! Exodites? Traitor guard? an army rule for Imperial agents? Nope, MARINES ARE NEEDED!
>>96793588I read the novel. That doesn't happen. In fact, most leaders of the rebels who helped the Tau take over were sent off-world to colonize where they won't cause trouble.In recent shorts, Gue'vesa settlers join the tau in their colonization efforts.
>>96793600cry about it lol
>>96793598He is trolling. The book doesn't feature anything he said.
>>96793604Why would I cry about it? I fucking love marines, bring more of them.
>>96793575Hey faggot. 10th is fucking awful as a game. I think terminators look really good. So I will buy it to paint. If you’re buying with playing 10th in mind you’re a retard.
>>96793572The Damocles Anthology features a bit of that.
>>96793593The point of regular Space Marine kits is that you season it with your own flavor. It’s the craft part of the hobby.
>>96793575Really hope the sword bro termie rumours are true
Hope you’re weekend games went well /40kg/
>>96793626You’re responding to someone who entered the hobby in the last couple years and will never create so much as a unique character let alone their own chapter.
>>96793551Why would anyone care where I live? You're not actually hunting me down right?
>>96793615I remember in 8th and 9th we had a lot more people posting models all the time including lots of games. Warhammer seems bigger than ever but this place has kind of emptied out
>>96793629Derp.
>>96793629>finally got 2k army assembled >slowly painting them >don’t know how to play (haven’t played for 10+years)>every post on Facebook is people looking for “ competitive “ games I feel like I bought into the wrong game. Everyone is trying to play comp in my area, even for just random pick up games.
>>96793632Oh shit I might actually see you in San Diego one day. Let me know if you want to play
>>96793631Why would I create OC cringe crap instead of being part of the setting by forming connections to established factions/characters?
>>96793640of course a zoomer would say this
>>96793629He's got way more points than me but I might have a slightly better shot a tabling him. Either way it was fun but we had to pause after turn 3. Ultras vs Wolves 2k.
>>96793635I think a sizeable number of hobbyists/older players move to HH and TOW in 10th. Looking at both /hhg/ and /whfb/ there are a lot of models/WIP posted in each thread. While we’ve taken some a lot of secondaries like >>96793640 who got into the hobby because of astartes or other secondary media and don’t have the desire to be creative.
>>96793626>The point of regular Space Marine kits is that you season it with your own flavor.You wish that were true, but you know it's not.If a regular Space Marine kit gets flavored, 98% of the time it'll just be with the color scheme and maybe transfers
>>96793629got sick this weekendgames next weekend though, looking forward to trying out my vindicator for the first time
>>96793629My weekend consisted of filling in some spots for primers and painting trims.And then laying in bed for most of the day.That was it.
>>96793629I didn't have any
>>96793645they'll be back when 11th drops
>>96793648Yea sometimes I take a day to just lay around and ponder the worlds problems. Hope you had a chill time my peep.
>>96793629This weekend was just painting/celebrating anniversary
>>96793645>I think a sizeable number of hobbyists/older players move to HH and TOW in 10th. Looking at both /hhg/ and /whfb/ there are a lot of models/WIP posted in each threadLOL
>>96793575>essentially only for Ultramarineswait, seriously? I shouldnt buy this if I, a Dangels player, wants more termies?
>>96793645>>96793641If you cringe at people creating OC pony, Sonic, and Naruto characters you should be cringing at people making oc chapters especially when they hav snowflakey backgrounds such as being descended from traitor geneseed
>>96793636They did! Thanks Sallyanon.That battlefield looks sick
>>96793663You already have deathwing knights
>>96793646That’s still your own flavor, even if it’s not super in depth. Someone just starting out probably doesn’t have the bits to kit bash, but as you go you get more stuff to make your dudes more special. It’s why the recommendation is to start with the most basic dues and work your way up to special characters.
gonna finish this tonight post models
>>96793653Probably yeah.
>>96793667trying too hard little zoomzoom
>>96793675My Wolves need not introduction
>>96793667You might be in the wrong hobby. Have you considered comic books? You have a marvel fan outlook.
>>96793663You shouldn't buy this if you play Dark Angels or Space Wolves. You have your Deathwing Knights and Space Wolves have Wolf Guard Terminators. As a Dark Angel player normal assault terminators are of little use to you.
>>96793671>>96793684Yes but what If I want oops all termies?
>>96793663Deathwing Knights are just a better version of the Hammer+Shield Assault Terminators (that you certainly pay the points for). I wouldn’t buy 15 of these guys if you’re a Dangels player, at best you’d want just the Lightning Claws, and just for collection purposes at that.
>>96793687while they are both melee termies, they are still different units. The anons telling you to only buy DWKs are no model secondaries, do not listen to them
Idk why you’re all discussing the terminator box as if it won’t sell out as fast as the DG battleforce
>>96793697Thats what I was worried about, that this box is Ultramarine only units. Im sure its not cost or buildeffective, but I can run everything in the box in a Dark angels army right? Thats all I want.
>>96793687Then you should buy it. The anons telling you to not buy models you like the look of are no model secondaries, do not listen to them
>>96793705You can run them but they are a straight downgrade. Always was always will be. The other anon is clearly no games.
>>96793705That box is Space Marine units. To make them Deathwing Knights you'd probably want to find some power maul or flail bits, but to make them into regular ass Deathwing terminators I'm pretty sure you can just paint them bone color. Also Dangels field regular-ass termies anyway; if you wanna do Oops All Termies you'll need to fill out the list with them
>>96793704>doompostingYeah nobody should be excited for anything because nobody can learn from their mistakes and improve their service in order to take more money from you
>>96793717>>96793717>>96793717Proper thread
>>96793722Are you retarded, were on page one and having civil discussion
>>96793726Just ignore him then
>>96793697>>96793716Why did you respond twice?
>>96793722Way too late fren, we’re already a hundred posts in.>>96793675My next projects. Gotta climb out form under this mountain of marines that collected while I was working on m’tau.
>>96793726>>96793732Don't entertain the subhuman AIslopper's early throoding
>>96793732Oh shit nice stuff, I assume they are all going to be Salamanders?
>>96793733I prefer to assume ignorance first, malice later.
>>96793687>what If I want oops all termiesYou should be running 30 Deathwing Knights and maybe 10 Normal Terminators. Assault will be pretty much useless for you.
>>96793733This thread was posted after the last hit image limit, what are you talking about
>>96793733>>96793741He may be a subhuman aislopper, but he's a subhuman aislopper with standards >:|
>>96793747No such thing
>>96793668pretty soulful anon
G'ork is this true? Will there be Blood?
>>96793747So you're just upset that you didn't make the thread
>>96793756You're not even replying to the right anon mongoloid
>>96793755people have been saying "SPACE HULK SOON" since 10th dropped w/ terminators n stuff. unless he specifically says that he was told by an insider, its clickbait bullshit
>>96793636What the fuck is happening in that pic, I see marines, Eldar, nids, daemons, and custodes.
I love my big red wife magnus the red
>>96793749I was trying to give him a little leeway>>96793756No retard, I just dislike you because you post low-effort coombait that's so offmodel that it makes tau-coomer's stuff look GW approved.
>>96793675Freshly painted
4th editon drop assault game deployment(back of book scenario)1000p ultramarines fight against the foul necron.Lists were:Razorbackextra armour. with h.bolter and storm bolter6 tacticals within, 1 flamer, one vet seargent. Combi flamer, grenades and bionics(larping as a techmarine)7 tacticals, plasma gun, seargent with combi plans- rocket launcher.Venerable brother Cantor - multi melta, flamer and dreadnought fist- extra armour, smokes launchers.5 Terminators with heavy flamer and peeped captain Force commander with master crafted thunder hammer and storm bolter - terminator armour. Necrons:Lord with orb,war scythe and veil of darkness.2x10 warriors5x immortalsTomb spider3 scarabs with disruption fields. 3 wraiths. Marines execute a textbook all drop landing, with only the venerable dreadnought Cantor scattering onto an embankment(and dangerously close to translocation near trees)Sadly the necrons were using hidden deployment(necron player places dice each assigned to a unit which I’m unaware of. Basically acting like auspex blips. , with the main objective being to decapitate the necron lord and prevent mass reawakening . Here’s a pic of marine after they land.
I can read 40k wiki for an uncomfortably long time but struggle to read the rules.Anybody had this kind of trouble and how did you overcome it?
>>96793675finished cleanup and repair on this second hand Wave Serpent.Got a can on Wraithbone spray arriving on Tuesday, with which I'll be able to prime the last of my Eldar models. And then I will being painting.
When did the “Know No Fear” quote from the Emperor originate from? Was it an old rulebook or a novel?
>>96793788The blips were then revealed, clever anons will note the scouts on the plateau turns out were incredibly close to some wraiths, shit. Since marines can’t move or assault as they all deployed via thunderhawk or drop pod. Some shooting occurs. Not nearly enough. I believe Cantor misses with his multi melta on the spider, and the Razorback stalls, the abrupt movement throwing its targeting cogitators out.
>>96793797watch a tutorial video and be done with it
>want to go to lgs and play games>when I get in the cozy zone I mumble to myself in autism like when I’m at the hobby deskThis is seriously why I won’t play 40k in real life because I don’t want to embarrass myself with my self mumbling.Any genuine advice is appreciated.
>>96793818Stop giving a fuck.
>>96793818Play Tzeentch so they think you’re role playing
>>96793818If somebody asked if you said something you just say you were figuring out your next turn or roll
>>96793399Post your project WIP's anons
>>96793818Holy shit man no one gives a fuck...just go beat their asses into submission and leave.
>>96793812I did manage to knockout some immortals, but the spider ensured even the plasma gun couldn’t put them down.Necrons consolidate, returning fire on the Razorback ripping off its heavy bolter and disabling its engine. Oof. The guys inside opt not to bail out of this metal box yet. Meanwhile the wraiths fly through the solid stone “12” and end up behind the scouts, who to their benefit do actually survive, losing 3 models- but holding their ground.>>96793832Magnificient job anon, keep at it.
>>96793832Dat's a cool ass pulsa rokkit
>>96793812Whoaaa, cool oldies game brother. Looks amazin!
>>96793823Thing is I fear mumbling something bad.And looking like a schizophrenic>>96793826I play guard.>>96793828That might work.>>96793837I don’t want to get banned from the lgs for committing physical violence.
>>96793818Most wargamers are normal people who are used to being exposed to less socially graceful people. The less socially graceful people probably won't even notice. You're fine. Relax. You're doing the fat guy at the gym paranoia. No one is looking at you and judging/making fun of you. It's in your head.
>>96793851>don’t want to get banned from the lgs for committing physical violence.Wait no you meant games sorry my bad.I just remembered a fight that happened a year ago during a tournament I witnessed when I was showing up to pick up some paints.My bad.
>>96793854Oh okay thanks. That makes me feel a bit better.
>>96793855Damn an LGS fight? They both got winded and left right?
>>96793729some autist is demonstrating echolalia
Redpill me on this army
>>96793675Really happy with how most of them turned out
>>96793869I swear no one even plays them, its a myth...
>>96793841The next turn: Cantor stomps down the difficult terrain, opening fire with his heavy flamer and melts to finally pit a stop to the spider . It works. the next turn he will flame and charge the Warriors .the terminator led by the commander managed to charge and shoot into another warrior squad destroying them all. Lastly the support plasma marine squad manages to kill one immortal(for good this time) but the plasma overheats and takes the weapon specialist.Lastly the scouts meet their this turn from the wraiths but take one with them.Razorback flamer squad pile out of the damaged machine and move up, taking some bolting potshots.Following this the lord with the warriors teleports away,and scatters into a section of trees leaving him down to 4 warriors. Dangerously close to phasing out.
>>96793864No a floor manager broke up the two fatties and told them to both pack up and leave and that they were banned for brawling.I didn’t see their armies because most people looked at the fight and left their tables to get a closer look at the spectacle.
>>96793876damn that's awesome, probably xeno players. They are a wild bunch.
>>96793646>>96793626hard to do that when every corner of space marine has been defined in someway. like whatever idea you have for a chapter, its probably already been made and has a decent amount of lore. if you want full creativity go for CSM, they have less kits but the ones they do have are more distinct and with each of their legions being more extreme than the last, it means what's in between is where you can start making your own chapters
>>96793875Last turn and the marines carry hard, the flamer squad finally gets close and unleashes not one but 2 flamers on the immortals but they still stand, the terminators walk off to hunt the lord, shooting back at the immortals. And the plasma squads combo plasma now fires to destroy the immortals, misses and melts himself. The krak launcher I shot at them does the job. Next turn the necrons are under phase out number so the game ends there as they disappear . - loads of fun. Here’s a mugshot of the survivors, technically the razorbacks still kicking as well, as it’s pintle mounted stormbolter still operates.
>>96793869You get to be special in that you'd be the only person within a large radius to actually play them.
>>96793720I dont wanna make them deathwing knights, I got plenty deathwing knights.I just like termies, and I like the new loadouts like the power claws.
>>96793134It is super dependent on the army, but the only Combat Patrols out right now worth buying 2x of to start an army with are Custodes, Tau, and maaaaybe the Votann one. You can also pick and choose two Space Marine boxes to start with (Imperial Fists + Dark Angels would be a solid start to a generic Marines list), and if you really want to go Marine heavy Amazon still has a bunch of Strike Force Agastus boxes sitting in their warehouse. It's about the same price as a Combat Patrol right now ($160 for 5 heavy intercessors, 10 Desolation Marines, a Brutalis Dread, and a Lieutenant), but if you have Prime it was on sale for $120 during Prime Days like two weeks ago.
>>96793892Fun looking game love the old models it's very kino as they say here.
>https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bGYngK1BIcIHonestly probably one of the best Imperium animation stories out there. Astartes has it beat in terms of animation quality and combat obviously but I don't think anything shows off the state of the Imperium itself than this one.
>>96793600>Exodites? Traitor guard? an army rule for Imperial agents?Nobody gives a shit about any of these. It's the reason why GW will never make them.
>>96793916buy an ad
>>96793767Definetly mad because you didn't get to make the thread.
>>96793903Oh then fuck yeah go to town. Lightning claw Termies are fucking blenders bro
I'm tempted to get the Terminator Battleforce and the Christmas Battleforce and paint them up as Marines Malevolent. Is it a good or bad idea? Will people think I'm some weirdo asshole deep down? I think their colors would look good on those new models and I kinda always wanted to try yellow.
>>96793949Yellow is fun, you should do it
>>96793945yipee
>>96793949>Will people think I'm some weirdo asshole deep down?Weirdo assholes don't paint models
>>96793869It's a kitbash army. Unless you have a cool idea for converted troops it is pretty expensive to buy
Don't let new sculpts entice you. Post standards
>>96793916The only 40k animation I like is that Dawn of War version of the Guilty Gear Xrd intro.
>>96793973That is a new sculpt though, that's a 25th anniversary model
>>96793869i'd hardly call it an army
>>96793869they decided Chaos Daemons didn't deserve a book, but this which is an imperial analogue did. I love imperial agents on paper but it's a couple years out from being anything more than the "I owned this unit because of killteam and I want to use it" dumpster bin
>>96794015Tbf imperial always sold better than daemons
>>96794021It needs better integration with all the ordos and a couple more inquisitor game system homage models
>>96794010>13 years ago>new modelfake grog
>>96794015>>96794021everyone has been suspecting they're planning to get rid of the daemons so they can spread them across the deity legions. Be'lakor will probably be in a CSM detachmentAgents still need to be the soup/kill team leftovers factions. they're probably planning to dump Deathwatch into Agents
>>96794028better yet make 1250 points its own game system that pays tribute to 2e with unit restrictions like only 1 heavy vehicle or dreadnought per army.The model range for imperial agents is mostly infantry and would only stand to benefit from existing in a system like that
>>96794028Any recasters got this bitch? She's the 54mm one right
>>96794034I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they kick belakor into age of sigmar and let vashtor shine more.
>>96794043belakor isn't going anywhere. They shoved him into the fall of cadia storyline and he comes with a primaris corpse. Him being removed is at the same odds of them chopping off skarbrand, it aint gonna happen
>>96793961I was thinking I could have an excuse to play around with contrast paints but I also want to do heavy weathering and battle damage. I need to research if it looks good. Contrast tends to be pretty warm and colorful.>>96793968In my LGS people are often arguing who is the better 'good guy' of the setting. Who saves more people, who is the better hero. I saw some paint schemes and I can't get them out of my head.
>>96794043They should just kick both belalol and vash into AoS and the trash can respectively.
>>96794052>Him being removed is at the same odds of them chopping off skarbrand, bold choice.
how do you distinguish your chaos chosen and legionaries? they look to similar
>>96794055My guys are all done using the old gw glaze paints which behave sortve like very very thinned down contrast paints. You definitely want to still do some highlights after you lay your yellow down, but the yellow contrasts are insanely smooth and go down great. Go through an airbrush very well too
>>96793949It's fun to be the bad guysAs long as you aren't being a dick irl or showing poor sportsmanship/disrespect while playing there shouldn't be any reason to think poorly of you*>* There are probably some rare spergs out there who might get too into the rp though
>>96794052They seem to have retconned him failing to take the Phalanx into him just as planning it. The latest retelling of the Fall of Cadia says that Be'lakor floated above Cadia and watched it be destroyed. It also says that Abaddon isn't foolish enough to think that Be'lakor was there to help him
>>96794070Your yellow and weathering is very nice.
>>96794055I have no idea what im looking at here.
>>96794078MM stripping off Salamander gear from dead Salamanders they probably betrayed.
>>96794078The MM were pricks and backstabbed the Salamanders.
>>96794077Thanks anon, if you want I've got the /40kg/tip for my yellow. It's not super complicated and you could cut out one of the highlight steps for tabletop easily. It's got conversions for contrasts rather than the glazes which are hard to find now
>>96794074I'm always nice. Even when I seethe internally I'm still nice. Old ladies smile when they see me I'm so nice.
>>96794091Hey, thanks! I was considering doing something similar but with Imperial Fist and shading goregrunta fur.
I have been asking everywhere. Does anyone know where the lore about the Chaos Gods being created by the Siege of Terra comes from? It's driving me nuts since I see it being discussed in spoiler posts but can't find an exact source.
>>96794092Then you're chilling my guy.
>>96794099it's a misquote of the third end and death book, they weren't created in the battle between the emperor and horus
>>96794099it's just a fan theory that when time got fucked on the vengeful spirit with it caused the gods to be created retroactively there is no source for it, its never stated in any way but people who never actually read the end and the death think it is true
>>96794096Oh goregrunta is pretty dark. You'd need to thin it a lot. Skeleton horde is even a little dark sometimes but if youve got water in your brush its not so bad. But the new formula seraphim sepia is just right to keep your flats bright. I have also been considering pic related for my shade step under the yellow

>>96793399>Diablo 4 AIslop in the OPYou disgust me, Forty Kilogramms.
>>96793916I like them. The artists seem to be making some stylistic choices with proportions so that they more closely match the models, which its hard not to constantly notice. Animation that looks grounded is difficult and there's no shortcut to it, you just have to build up the hours and hours of experience and skill. The high water mark for me continues to be the Dawn of War intro, but it's hard to look good next to anything done by Blur.t.3danimatorfag
>>96794175>Forty KilogrammsBest compliment I could get.

i added white stripes to my corvus blackstar that im using to proxy for the stormraven. i also painted the lenses up front black and used white paint for lens reflection/flare. im really happy with how it came out !!
>>96794216looking good queen it's hard but work on practicing thinner edge highlightsalso don't do white strips in future, use light grey so you can highlight up to white
>>96794216They look solid, well done.
>>96794216This reminds me of American warbird paintjobs.Man somebody has to have made a Maurader in chrome, right?
>>96794239Not chrome that I have seen, but referencing ww2 vehicles is a long standing tradition.
>>96793399anyone got the kill team rulebook handy
>>96794203i only bring two 10 man berserker squads. my buddy that plays necrons can kill them before they come close
>>96794216The stripes look good, great work!The breakup of colours really helpsIt's also prime real estate for a big decal or something, like the ultras symbol
Could someone explain why so many Tau players take pathfinders over strike teams and breachers?Is it mainly because of their self guide special weapons.

>>96793399>>>/tg/slop
I'm super crashing out because I was reminded one of my friends who I grew up playing 40k with is part of the design team now and he's an utter retard fake nerd who was never good at playing or painting Warhammer. Not necessarily jealousy because my life's 1000% better than his. I feel like Lion El'Jonson seeing baldy Horus become Warmaster.
>>96794404You mean primaris sisters of battle?
>>96793458>The other option is from this harlequin (not tm) art I found. I think that scheme would look fantastic on the Harlequin(tm) models.You realize most people are gonna assume you're some kind of tranny if you do that right?
>>96794440Oh. Is it people like him responsible for destroying 40k in terms of gameplay?
>>96793629My Brutalis and Ballistus got one shot sniped on turn one and two by three Dark Lances and then I spent the rest of the match slap fighting Talos's and Ravagers with my terminators.I'm happy my opponent who was getting back into the game had a fun match where he won but fuck me do I hate playing with vehicles
>>96794440>picGod that art looks so cool.
>>96794348People don't do that retard.
I don't care if GW are never going to make it a unit, I'm going to make a bunch of gravis melee breachers, and I'm going to hate how expensive heavy intercessors are while doing it
>>9679446540k has been super far gone since about 6th imo. But he's certainly majorly responsible for the current state of affairs. His career trajectory was wild. No college. Just corporate climbing to end up somehow at GW today. I don't want to describe more and out either of us, because like good for him and "love ya brother" and shit, but it just reinforces why I hate GW these days. Knowing someone who made it there super revealed to me just the type of corposlop company it truly is.
>>96793629Last game of the grand narrative weekend, ended in a win for us but the score sheet was done wrong and it was reggister as a loss ;-;. Truly the worse game I ever had, the world eater player was a fucktard, champion of the block mentality, rushed throught his rules and got angry we I asked for clarification, got pissy when my thundercav tanked his demon engine, made a thinly veilled threat in addition of smelling like shit. The death guard player was cool tho.Gameplay wise my wolves did their job, my thundercav killed the great unclean one with the help of a dire avenger squad. the blood claws killed a nurgle beast and the berserker pack.
>>96793575>Blood Angel Termie kit comingThey reduced death company into "just paint your dudes black and buy upgrade sprue bro" but they're gonna make a separate BA terminator box when their terminators have the same equipment as regular termies anyway?That would be retarded. I believe it.
>>96794496forgot my pic
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96794488Thanks for the input anon. Interesting and I agree completely with you about the decline since 6th. If only we could go back
>>96794505I wish man
>>96794541>If only we could go backYou can still play old editions.
>>96793973
>>96794541 You literally can. Just go play older editions.

>>96793629Haven't had time to play this weekend, but my GSC tore a bunch of Blood Angels to shreds last weekend. I brought a Truck and Rockgrinder to the match and my opponent couldn't handle it without some extra effort on their part. Abberants and an unattached Abom fucked up some Sang. Guard too.
>>96794453to be honest I wouldn't mind this as much as femstodes. let them figure out this one method of female gene seed and have some elite mommy's for your manhandling fantasies. it wouldn't fuck as much with the lore as recent installments

>>96794440>>96794482
>>96793399Army this feel?
>>96794711>With what player base?You and your friends. You have those, right?There's even the 4th edition battle bible project ongoing in the catalog.
>>96794727Don't know.
>>96794440I keep hearing that GW severely underpays almost everyone who works for them, which honestly explains a lot about the current state of things.
>>96794727Squats
>>96793869People like to poo-poo them for not having an army rule, but that's not really fair because they do have real incentives for playing pure Agents:1. Several of your units are cheaper when used as Agents and not allies2. You can swap around your Assassins, for example paying for the generalists and then subbing in the Culexus when you actually need them.3. Imperial Navy Detachment is legit excellent with a strong rule, stratagems and enhancements that benefit the whole faction.Playstyle is very objective-based with loads of infiltrate, deep strike, cheap action monkeys and battleshock tools. Extremely low damage but that's not why you play them. Spend the whole game playing objectives and Subjuctor jail while your guys die horribly and then win a pyrrhic victory.May not exist in 11E and randomly lost half of their legends units for no reason.
>>96794735You get to work at GW making the magic happen. That’s worth more than money. You can’t buy that (this is actually how GW reasons btw)
>>96794727Leagues of Votann
>>96794728>4th edition battle bibleYes Anon, alternative rules. Actually trying to find anyone for older original editions pre-10th is frankly impossible.
>>96793869GW has accumulated a bunch of assorted imperium models over the years that don't fit into any particular army and threw them into this book, it has imperial policemen, spaceship crewmen, assassins, inquisitors etc.there's no theme, it's just random shit they didn't know what to do with.
god damnit, I just can't seem to decide between which colour scheme to lock in. Whenever I feel like I should dedicate to one, the other one suddenly becomes a fresh contender again
>>96794826The frustrating thing is that they could have so easily made it a dedicated Inquisition book and sold it as all the weirdos they've requisitioned.Except that's its missing the core fucking unit (Stormtroopers) and they don't even sell generic Inquisitors any more.
>>96793407I hate Australians so much it's unreal
>>96793869it's aimed at two non-exclusive peers:1. people that really want to kitbash and customize a lot while playing imperium2. people who want their imperial army to go back to a more wilder look, less coherent than 35 space marines in red. and by red i mean: everything is red, except for the eye lense
>>96794846have you considered orange and teal
>>96794851My main problem with them is that they make being australian their entire identity.Like wow you're inbred descendants of anglo criminals, how endearing.
>>96794858well at least I have already narrowed it down to two (none of which contain orange or teal)
>>96794861But that's half the globe?
>>96794869yea I'm really curious where that guy is from if that is how he perceives ozzies
>>96794861Do you think Americans aren't the inbred descendants of Anglo criminals? Or most of Europe for that matter?

>Huron Blackheart finally getting a refresh alongside a small Red Corsairs unit and command unit refresh>The Dark apothecary rumour is actually apart of a character model from ADB nightlord book, that red corsair guy who leaves them to join the Night Lords>Eldar Corsairs are coming alongside the CSM corsairs
>>96794884see the dodge
I like HQs being slightly better beatsticks rather than core pieces that make entire lists work honestly. Or a sidegrade that offers a different playstyle, like Mortarion.Because just look at AdMech. AdMech as it is right now is entirely dysfunctional without Cawl, because Cawl is literally "you now have Oaths of Moment". Or if you want to make a daemon engine focused CSM list you NEED Vashtorr because there simply is no substitute to +2S on all your fucking guns. It makes lists so samey.
>>96794962Huron Blackheart more like Huron STINKSHART
>>96795019I like them being pieces that hold some armies together, I just hate that they keep making named characters so incredibly important. Basically every army wants to take them instead of being able to make your own dude strong, and that sucks - it'd be way more fun if they were decent but not essential to an army's function.
>>96794932pls don't hurt me
>>96795039Yeah that's how I feel. I think Mortarion is a good example, he offers something unique but you can make do without him just fine, he just lets you play a bit different. But so often these are just "your army now does the thing it was supposed to do but better" which makes them boring autoincludes. And what's worse, it means the army is now balanced around having that named character which means if you don't have the named character you're shit out of luck.
>>96794962I will lose my mind if it's that guy the ADB NL omnibus instead of a generic chaos apothecary. He doesn't even show up until the second book.
>>96794962Chaos apothecary would be cool but I feel they should be unique to creations of bile
>>96793675I finally managed to finish these guys. I'm gonna stop painting models and just rip off the bandaid and start practicing bases, I just have too much stuff painted and none of it is based and it's time to stop procrastinating.
>>96795046Your biggest mistake was being born in the gay state.
>>96794459Oh they'll have bigger reasons to assume that
>>96794962I know GW doesn't really do battleboxes anymore, but a Prince Yriel vs Huron Blackheart battlebox would be siiiiiiiick
>>96793629Went 2-1-2 at small GT with my sisters, could be worse.
>>96795124How many sisters do you have that you can put on a GT with them?
>>96795092I hate basing too, but the finished effect is worth itif you just want them done but ok looking, texture paint, wash and drybrush is plenty good. Can still a rock or tuft of grass on too
Would you guys like to see the word of chaos?
>>96795074If it's mostly an issue of them being named characters then you can chug more /yourdudes/ pills to resolve that. 'Cawl' is just the generic Archmagos datasheet, for which you convert a guy that matches the base size and rough height. It's not like half the generic HQ's have wargear options these days anyhow.
Going to fight some squats with my cartel dark eldar this week. I anticipate losing. Not because DE are bad, but because I suck.
>>96795146No! I want to see fat Eldar titties!
>>96795146No, I want fat tau cow titties.
>>96795164Nothing wrong with that. Eldar were made to lose.
>>96795178Or option B is I laugh at stumpies thinking T5/6 saves them and lmao suck my poison thunderkyn. Especially as I anticipate my opponent to bring a force that is 90% infantry.
>>96795178>anti eldar schizo is into gay bdsm anime shitCan't say I'm surprised
GW stopped selling Huron so yeah a new model for him is imminent
>>96795199I bet he's gonna thank the rat god when he gets a resculpt
>>96795199GW stopped selling chaplain xavier but apparently imminently can mean over 20 years.
>>96795208>chaplain xavierYeah but they still sell chaplian models for you to proxy
>>96795217and they still sell chaos lord for you to proxy as huron?
>>96795227Nah Huron is like the main CSM guy outside of Abaddon and the cult legion champions. He's far higher in importance than a generic named chaplain from the salamanders. He also started the Badab war so it makes sense hes get a new model
>>96795091don't be an idiot, that's like saying only iron warriors should have warpsmiths or jump pack lords are night lords.
Any 11e news yet
>>96793675gonna call her here
>>96795208>>96795217Are you talking about this dude?
>>96795254you're done when I say you're done.
>>96795260Nice someone owns him.
>>96795260>/rrat/ hakos baelzWhy do you have to exist
>>96795260I need him...
>>96795246It's different. The nature of chaos and it's effect on geneseed have mostly made apothecaries redundant. It almost exclusively within the consortium that you find remaining chaos apothecaries and it's mostly because of them that chaos keeps going.
>>96795198I'm not anti-Eldar, they're my favorite army.What makes you think I'm anti-Eldar?
>>96795254Put her in the jar, anon. She's not done.
>>96795260>ratfag is more based than thoughtHow is it possible?
>>96795282Or chaos marines I mean, chaos would keep going regardless.
>>96795282NTA but I'm pretty sure I've read that Apothecaries are actually super sought-after for CSM and that's part of the reason why Fabulous Bill has such influence.
Do you think metal models are good collectibles? I can spend 50 europoors for this one, but also on other stuff to expand my army.
>>96795294Sure but they don't have the same function as loyalist apothecaries. They don't harvest traitor geneseed like loyalists do. Makes little sense to field them along side your legionaires.
>>96795290I've just been in this hobby for a long time.Un very unbasedmy first army was tau and most of it is unpainted still
>>96795260
>>96795303Go on, paint it.Paint it based on Hakos' colorscheme.
>>96794735>Games Workshop has announced it is providing a £20 million bonus to its employees following its latest financial results.
>>96795301>They don't harvest traitor geneseed like loyalists do.Yes they do? Not only that, they really want to harvest loyalist geneseed. The Fabius Bile books get into this a lot, geneseed is actually a more precious commodity to CSM because all the Chaos stuff fucks with it and makes it harder to sustain a stock of stable geneseed.
>>96795308I'll probably paint a commander like that, I want to do a takkaden project now I'm no longer a cripple. So adding a hakos commander sounds like fun and I hope immnot shit faced when I paint it this time.
>>96795319Sure but you dont always fight loyalists. And traitor geneseed is mostly unusable due to mutations. Way less reason to field such valuable assets in your army
>>96795301Anon berserker surgeons are apothecaries, and if the WE still have apothecaries then the other traitor legions would to
>>96794735Three fucking times GW has had people in their painting tutorials who have effortlessly gone from that to launching their own successful independent Youtube channels.You'd think GW would look at that and realize, we're fucking stupid, we're finding this talent that connects with the community and then refusing to give them the freedom and compensation to make staying with GW an attractive option.
>>96793407Coomers are fucking cringe. This guy is hilarious.
>>96795328How unusable traitor geneseed is varies wildly, and one of the biggest factors is the skills of the apothecary.And you and I both know the actual reason you don't see apothecaries fielded in CSM armies is that there isn't a model for them yet.
>>96795311one time annual bonus is not a salary
>>96795339Those independent youtube channels lose money without sponsorships and free stuff from GW's competition. It's not the lucrative asset you think it is. So many people promote GW for free on youtube that an in-house money-sink is pointless.
>>96795239Yeah just like Nazdregg is the main ork guy outside of Gazghkull.
>>96795349um excuse me? warhammertv+ premium?
>>96795352Huron had a black stone fortress given to him as a gift from Abaddon. He was the star of the Badab war and had a loyalist model made by forge world. Hes nothing like Nazdregg
>>96794440>I feel like Lion El'Jonson seeing baldy Horus become WarmasterYou're more of a Perturabo since you're one bitter autist.
>>96794488>majorly responsible for the current state of affairsHow so anon? Is he deciding what models get made or just the corperate side figuring out supply logistics across the world and production quotas
>>96795101bring it on mothafucka(which state are we talking btw? you think I am from aussieland myself?)either way, time for some krumpin
>>96795355Abby is getting sidelined in favor of chaos primarchs anyway (which to be fair is understandable since he launched 12 failed campaigns) and GW's beeing memory holing badab for years now.
>>96795374you people are so deluded and of course you'd bring up 12 failed black crusades. your memery is such that I'm surprised you didn't break out the classic (not) abaddon the armless
>>96795355>Huron had a black stone fortress given to him as a gift from Abaddon.Clarified and resolved as useless in a BL book.>He was the star of the Badab warIn the same way that Cardinal Xaphan was the star of Vraks. Tyberos was the real star of Badab.>and had a loyalist model made by forge worldThe kroot chicken had a model made by forgeworld.
>>96795382And what was the main big event of Arks of Omen? Lion fighting Angron. Your honor, I rest my case.
>>96795386You want to brush away everything mentioned for Huron but Nazdregg has almost nothing comparable to that (I'll give him the small campaign back in what 3rd edition)?
>>96795355He's nothing compared to Nazdregg.
>>96795386>>96795390I feel like this is a repeat of the arguements on here anosn made about how the vespid refresh wasn't happening when it clearly was.
>>96795349It absolutely is a lucrative asset because it's very effective community outreach and advertisement. And by keeping it in-house they would have boxxed out those competitors. And GW agrees because they launched their own fucking streaming service. I remember back in the day, when Duncan's GW videos were the go-to resource for painting tutorials. The complete and utter failure to not only not capitalize on it but to lose it completely is staggering incompetence.
>>96795401So you're telling me the Nazdregg refresh is confirmed?
Mini leak? No? No pics? I don't care then.
>>96795401There's plenty of finecast characters who got shitcanned across all factions.I'm not saying definitely he's gone forever. Maybe Huron will come back, maybe he won't but him getting removed from the store right now means jackshit.
>>96795390The Lion and Angron have fucked off to irrelevancy (especially the Lion) but the narratives of the Nachmund gauntlet and Abaddon and Vashtor's quest will continue forward and shape 40k. Angron and the Lion's fight will not.Your honor, I rest my case.
>>96795372I hate Melbourne(the rest of Vic is alright), I'd be keen to fight you and maybe the NSW police again
>>96795429Conjecture, dismissed.
>>96795408no, Badrukk. Huron Blackheart vs Prince Yriel vs Kaptin Badrukk.yo ho ho
End of edition is Konrad vs Russ with Huron in the background.
>>96795436NTA but I'm from Melbourne and I'll smash your fucking head in for talking shit. I'll krump ya like an ork WAAGH krumps a planets PDF off screen
>>96795427Wait, scratch that, I thought Huron got Legended along with Gabriel Seth, Karandras etc, but he's actually still in the codex... I never once saw him in 10th.
>>96795401Unlike the other guy, I'm all but sure Huron's refresh is imminent. I just wanted to take the chance to clown about Nazdregg and kroot chickens.
>>96795452I think that any resin character that survived into 10th edition will get a plastic model by the end of 11th, at the latest
>>96795449Ok, meet me out the front of duporth tavern next Sunday.
>>96795401>>96795408>>96795427Its funny and strange because while I agree the original poster was out of line to declare a Huron release imminent because of a removal of his model from GW's webstore, that is something that has happened before with model releases and we also have a rumourmonger with a 95% positive record that is saying its happening so its not just the anon pulling it out of his ass.
>>96795457fair enough anon, I do think its possible Nazdregg could come back. If GW wanted to expand the other ork clans as they've been doing he seems like a logical choice
>>96795466>Go all the way of BrisbaneWe're fighting on the Princes Bridge or nothing, loser gets thrown into the YarraSomething something 40k, Huron refresh
I like the blues brothers and Chaos
>>96795465They updated Trazyn's base size like 6+ months ago and nothing has happened since. He's overdue along with Orikan and they're waay too popular to ignore.

>>96795495Redditor bucks spend the same as yours.
The Yriel release has been cancelled, GW is actually going to release a model of Prince Myrin Stormdawn following the huge succedd of Voidscarred, which many are saying is the best Aeldari book ever and is far better than Valedor. Myrin will of course be joined by his love, Taenar Leotharan, and the two will come with a limited edition diorama base where they can be posed to be holding hands over the corpse of a farseer.
>>96795499Well if duporth tavern is where I need to go to get my teeth kicked in, can you recommend where I should go to get my orbital bone shattered, an area to get king hit in and a place I can break a few ribs? Wanna get the full Gold Coast experince.40k
>>96795526False, they spend way more than any of us
@votannhow do you deal with Custards? I had a game recently vs them on 1k using Needgaard list and feel that shooty units that i had (no hekaton or thunders YET but that's 2k plan) just couldn't punch through even when double strating sus2+AP on a brick of 6 volkjacks because of 4+ and fnp spam. Do I just surrender no man's till turn 4/5 to not let them melee and then try to sweep in for objectives? I assume hardly anything can be done if I just keep getting "kill niggas" side objectives even after using cp to redraw?
Can I proxy Vashtorr with a daemon prince? I always forget that site that has the sizes of all minis scaled.

Game
>>96795562Leagues of Votann sadly just sucks at 1k points. You really need Thunderkyn to nuke targets with SP conversion beamers + the Sustained Hits 2 stratagem, and you can really only afford to run one Hekaton which is one of your best units.
>>96795562Always remember that the custodes player has to declare he is using his warden's FNP at the BEGINNING of the phase. So he can't wait for you to commit before popping it off.
>>96795545speak for yourself.
I apologize for the TTS screenshot but I'm having a hard time understanding ruin rules. Can you see through all that line or can you not? The "footprint" of the ruin is in the way, which is said to be obscuring, but it seems ridiculous to me that you can walk through that but not actually see and shoot through it.
>>96795678had a suspicion given how everyone online always jerks off thunderkyn and hekaton that the army is pretty much solely reliant on them to have a punch>>96795708pretty sure we kept to that for the turns that really mattered at least, the dice were not in my favor that day either way
>>96795725You are like my friends, they don't read the rules closely and are like no this is wrong it can't be this way. They play by vibes.Yes, you can't see through the footprint of the building unless you are inside or touching the base of it. Yes you can walk through the footprint.
>>96793629Fun game Orks vs world eaters. We were grinding each other down pretty evenly for most of it but then a lucky overwatch from my tankbustas finished off a forgefiend which knocked out his last big piece
>>96795725Footprints represent debris too thick too see through but destroyed enough that you can just push apart stuff.
>>96795744b-but I thought that was in place because people would say "I can see you through the windows" and stuff like that. i didn't think the random rubble that gives the ruin its shape would actually block line of sight as well
>>96795877the enemy can see into a footprint which is why a window would give them line of sight to your unit.
>>96795877We have a blanket rule of the first floor of terrain being a solid wall, but the higher spots are cover with LOS. But I play with real people and we do this scary thing called communicating.
Was really hoping Votann would be space jews that'll destabilize a sub-sector's economy if a votann speculates a galactic market shift on adamantium by +.01%.Judging from the fanbase, they're too much of a blank slate.
With Orange being a shit-color, how about using spray cans instead? I guess finding a matching orange would be tricky to correct the mistakes.
>>96795915>Was really hoping Votann would be space jews that'll destabilize a sub-sector's economy if a votann speculates a galactic market shift on adamantium by +.01%.This isn't how 40k works at all, even on a meme understanding basis
>>96795889>the wall in front of you doesn't block line of sight because they can look into the ruin>but if you're outside in the open but there's a tiny pile of rubble in front you are now invisibleman i don't understand anythingso if i'm getting this right, the footprint is basically an opaque wall if both units are outside. you can't see anything at all, for example here red can see the red circle inside the ruin (because it's inside the footprint), but it can't see yellow because it's outside the footprintis this correct?
>>96795924Yeah dude, I'm totally saying there's a 1:1 economy analog in 40k
>>96795931Yes that's correct. Just be mindful that the solid wall in the footprint blocks los, so a model on the other side of the wall can't draw los to the model in the footprint.
>>96795570I hate tau so much
>>96794935The original anon asking may not. It’s much better to find a scene for rules that may be similar to what he wants or at least isn’t 10th (4th Ed BB, OPR, etc) than trying to create a new scene for it by trying to teach someone else without necessarily having the capacity to do so.

Legitimately, why do people like the Eldar factions?I can understand Tau, but I genuinely don't see why someone would take a look at all of 40k's options and go with either the spindly elven losers or the diet Chaos worshippers.Is it just for their rules?
>>96796180I mean they look pretty frickin cool, very sleek.

>>96796439Depends on the sculpts but plenty of old models are better than the current remakes. In the case of marines there may be scale issues but 3-5E have plenty of golden age sculpts. Just exercise some critical thought and make your own decisions lol.

>>96796660Anon primaris don't have bigger heads, almost every marine head has the same scale.
>>96796561I also like the new fanatics paints. Unlike other major brands they haven't been pre-thinned for airbrushing so they're much nicer to brush blend.
>>96796672Primaris heads are slightly smaller than the old tactical marine ones I had.
>>96796561Of course I thin it, Hell I even thinned it more than I do with other paints and it would still clogThen I grab the Vallejo color equivalent and no problems whatsoeverTo sketch the idea imagine the needle being crusted with paint when I used army painter and there barely being paint on the needle when I used Vallejo

>>96796806Few months
>>96796693Which ones? I have the old Juan Diaz Veterans and their heads are noticeably larger, probably because they seem upscaled to the same truescale as primaris but with tac marine proportions
>>96796637That is one of the grey hunter heads and not unique to the grey slayer kit. Not sure if it also turns up in the blood claw or long fang kits.
>>96796180I've thought a bit about this by way of the opposite viewpoint of asking why Eldar are so disliked and disrespected, and it actually turned out quite simple;Eldar are the most 'mystical' faction in 40k. They're all psykers, all of their tech is psychic in nature, and naturally they have the most psychic background.The 'problem' is that 40k is a military sci-fi setting, so most people don't care about psychic aspects to the factions. Eldar tech inherently cannot be detailed because, at its core, the explanation to it is "It's magic". You can explain a Bolter. You can explain a Shoota, or a Railgun, or even a Devourer. A Shuriken Catapult will always devolve into 'It works because Magic'. For every other faction, psykers and psychic activity is very much abnormal and dangerous, often giving it a mysterious edge. Eldar make it commonplace, removing that mystery. The same quality applies to Grey Knights, and is in part why they are also hated in turn.This transcends tech into aesthetic and combat style as well. Eldar are not a traditional military, nor are they a massive horde for a traditional military to combat. Eldar do not wear fatigues or power armor, they wear wizard robes and bright colorful skin suits. When one views 40k from the standpoint of a Military Sci-Fi setting, Eldar do not fit. For some this makes them unique and interesting, for many others this makes them annoying and even hateable.
>>96796785a few more angles
>>96796785>>96796861final
>>96796842Quality break down, I think some people just think they give off homo vibes too. Especially with that new book with the two dude Eldar pilots having a bang sesh.
>>96796736almost like they're not formulated for a fucking airbrush
>>96796736Do you understand that paints have different particle sizes, and this is the primary way that different finishes and coverage is achieved? Are you so retarded that you have been painting for X years and never learned basic facts about paint?

>>96796929sorry anon I just want to paint, I really don't care how the paints I use are made
>>96796959Why do people give such dumbfuck answers
>>96796918Actually I figured it out with fairly logical evidence;ARMA 3 is a fairly well know military sim platform with tons of mods for it, including numerous 40k nods. Almost every humanoid 40k faction is included among these mods; Marines, Sisters, IG (lots of IG), Chaos (Both CSM and Cultists), Orks, Tau, even Necrons. The exceptions to this are Eldar and Dark Eldar.These are not new mods, they've been around for years, yet Eldar still haven't been included.
>>96796842Shuriken weapons are pure physics, monomolecular slices are ejected at high speed.Only the triggers on eldar weapons, plus warp-guns like D-cannons, are psychic

>>96796736Skill issue. If you are using coarse pigment paints (like those made for high coverage brush work) you need to increase air pressure or use a larger nozzle. You cant use a fine detail needle for coarse pigment paints. For example, White Scar (and whites in general) from GWs own paintline are a .3 micrometer particle size, but something like Khorne Red will have very finely ground particles have the size. This directly affects coverage of the paint, acrylics meant for hand brushes tend to be higher grain because you don't want them to be super opaque or it will take you 50 layers to achieve a solid color over the surface you are painting.>>96796964Well, if you refuse to learn and grow you will always have skill issues. And people will rightfully make fun of you for it.
>>96796958hmm. I wonder which colour I could pick. So the basic idea was black+white (so yea thats pretty monochrome. also it whips my unexperienced painting ass) and the third colour was supposed to be purple for loinclothes and red for cables and such. but i'll think about it. thanks for the input
>>96796970>my evidence?>my special interest hobby only a few thousand people partake in globallyt. noooooticerReally not beating the autism allegations anon, but I see your point.

>>96796984But the other anon's point is wrong, you can explain a shuriken weapon from trigger press to it killing a guardsman.It's literally in the eldar codex

They occupy the niche, so GW have less of an incentive to diversify the niche. You could also do reptilian kroot based on that one art I guess, but its gonna be a long time if you're waiting for something like a all-sslyth killteam or a zoat killteam. Full army range is even less probably.

We image limit come on down>>96797206>>96797206>>96797206
>>96797154Doesn't need to.Malal never existed in 40k at all to begin with, he was only canon in Warhammer Fantasy and even then only canon for the 1st edition. WHF 2nd edition onward he was retconned and removed because GW completely lost the rights to Malal as a character.Basically GW back in the day asked John Wagner and Alan Grant to write and draw some warhammer stuff for them, they were the ones who created Malal and then also his champion character Caleb.However since there was nothing in their contract about that GW would own Malal, they obviously copyrighted the character themselves like any smart creator would.This then spun out into GW just axing Malal entirely out of Warhammer as a result because they did not own him as a character.Then later on, like decades later, GW has then created Malice who represents the same anarchical and renegade aspects of Chaos as Malal did. It's basically the Khorne vs Khaine dilemma, they represent the same things but they are not the same character at all or even related.The whole Malal situation is also probably the major catalyst in the begining as to why GW is so draconian and extremely controlling about their IP nowadays, and the Chapter House lawsuit just made it worse.Basically the company got "traumatized" for lack of a better word.
>>96797156>Did you even try googling it?I tried searching the Workshop with the terms 40k, Eldar, and a mix of the two, and it genuinely never came up.I legitimately didn't think that the sort of people to make ARMA mods would be using the term Aeldari.
>>96797013yes, it's my variation of the "real" SoM scheme: every armour piece switches between black and white, halving chest and helmet (with switched sides) and so on. so it's a little wilder, and trim is silver instead of gold. just preference
>>96796748Tripfags inherently have no right to speak back to people btw
>>96797263What the hell are you even talking about?
>>96797088Based on your history of compulsive lies, that is the greatest guarantee we've ever had (despite how obvious it is) that you do.
>>96797213>>96797206(image just to identify myself, i'm the SoM guy)yeah, I enjoy the irony of that real world background. Also, I never truly felt connected to be'lakor as his new iteration. I guess, with the way things currently go, I enjoy the "enforced mystery" the theme has, because GW can't for legal reasons fully dive into it, and certainly tries to legally replace it through the shadow legion/be'lakor story, yet they still sometimes give these little hints at that Malice entity in the warp and just couldn't go much further even if they wanted. I enjoy that balance

>>96796180Say what you will but there are dozens of ways to build and paint an eldar army. Ton of cool units to fit whatever theme you want, there is so much creativity Most of the OG craft worlds are sick and you can easily pick one of them, or you can make your own custom world with its own themeBesides marines, eldar has been one of the most diverse and fun armies to collect in the setting, especially considering many armies are still missing core units from their roster.

>>96796180Easy.>dark eldarRelatively cheap to buy, but unfortunately you need a lot of them now and GW took away the best combat patrol ever. Models still hold up 10+ years later for the most part, and the new stuff (Mandrakes, Incubi in particular) is sick. Kabalites have a strong silhouette and look cool. The vehicles are awesome. Poison is sweet. Lots of room for the faction to grow (in Covens and Cults in particular) if GW decides it. Decent chance of them getting a half range update in 11th. Coven highly kitbashable, same with Wyches even if their default model is kinda eh.>harlequinsgorgeous models considering their age. fun challenge to try the actual diamonded patterning. if you got suckered into buying a whole army of mostly monopose models for them that's on you, but it's fun to own like 800 points of them. >eldarconsistently strong and never bad because the core rules of 40k encourage killiness, and what you can't see you can't shoot. models like the avatar of khaine, shining spears, voidscarred, and warp spiders are really cool. only a few misses (new dire avengers, tilted autarch). wave serpent and wraith lord still look good. if you're not waacing you can still build a thematic army
No wonder all the new Possessed you can see only are unpainted. Now that mines are assembled and primed I realize they look absolutely horrid to paint.
