/40kg/ is a joke.Just look at these posts
>>96856179Its not AI and I like it so much more than the slop.
Repost!making good progress on /mydudes/ tonight 40kg frens !(13 models) my goal is to do the trim on all my models b4 i go to bed 2nite which feels very doable if i lock in (17 left)
>taufags
I've been mulling it over and I'm split between either the Krieg battleforce or the Skaven battleforce. I have a ton of IG and the battleforce is better than the combat patrol since it doesn't have the fuckass horses but with the skaven half of vermintide plus the christmas box I have 2k rats to play with.
>>96856234Your blue looks way smoother on these guys
>>96856244Which one are you more likely to enjoy painting? Which one is more likely to be stressful?
>>96856249>implying my dog ass ever finishes past two or three base coats before getting distracted by a new projectbut on that note, I'd say the skaven one would be better for me because them being ugly shits means I can speedpaint. And with those sexy new markers coming out...
Post models
>>96856261You should go out, buy 4 flesh toned contrast paints, 4 midtone flesh traditional paints, 2 brown contrasts. Apply the flesh contrasts all over using a random mix every time(cup palettes are great for this. Drybrush your flesh midtone. Then apply your various brown contrasts to the fur. Paint the rest of the owl
>>96856271Reposting from last thread. Might take a break from painting today.
gentlemen i have purchased two combat patrols
>>96856271my wip uriel. i just need to do his face and hair .
>>96856285My condolences
>>96856290>>96856275Naisu
>>96856274hm hm ok. I should have a few midtone fleshes from my canadians, so that's like 30% of the shopping list done. Oh and the palette is covered I got the fidget toy one from army painter. Pissed off the employee asking for it every time I visited my lgs until he threw it at my head. If my math is correct that should be 32 unique skin & fur color combos which will help when I have 100 rats to paint
>>96856312Don't even try and math out your combos, just mix paint together randomly and see what happens. The flesh tones all mix great together and the browns all work together great. The less thinking you're doing about the easy parts the more you can focus on the tougher parts like the cloth and glowy bits
>>96856292Why? They look really fun to build and paint.
>no interest in any of the christmas boxes>no interest in the end of campaign pirate battle>no interest in 11th launch with marines vs orks>will probably be more excited for whatever GW reveals for necromunda next friday
>>96856383Now you can be excited about the stuff you already have
Holy fuck what a shit thread
>>96856401Everyone's just been talking about models for 20 posts it's about as good as you could hope for
>>96856179>princess bubblegum if musclegirl
>>96856401don't worry i'm working on a model to post
>>96856285I too plan on buying two combat patrols. I found that the eldar and harlequin boxes together come to 995 points which is perfect for me to start my new army
>>96856179>TQA walker-vehicle similar to a Defiler in size and weapon composition, but it's modeled after a Sphinx. It has variants that allow it to serve as a heavy weapons platform or a heavy melee unit.
>>96856447Kino
>>96856383>>no interest in any of the christmas boxesthey are FUCKING ALLERGIC to putting tanks in the IG discount boxes I swear to god
>>96856179>TQ You don't even own models, troongooner. Why do you care?
>>96856446Don't get too upset when the next balance update pushes you ten over or below.
>>96856446Funny, I bought harlequin and drukhari
>>96856179>TQ Time displaced legionaries, every round you roll a D6 on a 2 up they stick around and every casualty adds a one to the required amount to roll
>>96856464What do they look like though
>>96856470all manners of armor marks from across time, mark 2, rubrics, the primaris/grey knights the emperor would've given them if magnus sat on the throne, etceach model would be unique

Are there any beakie helmets with Khorne bunny ears?
>>96856505Nope
>>96856505not first party ones
>>96856509>>96856512I want to see them. They would look funny.
>>96856515Make one. And then you can roflmao every day
>>96856271Is that fucking Doomrider!?
sadly 40kg frens i wasnt able to finish doing detail trimming on all my models tonight....on the bright side im only 10 models away from having my first ever fully battle ready 2k pt army ! ill try to get them finished by tomorrow or wednesday nightmy first game is going to be next sunday! i cant get called nogames or nomodels anymore! :D
>>96856534Excited for you anon
>>96856519But I don’t like marines, at least not enough to make em.
>>96856540Then you'll have to wait for someone else to do it
>>96856534That you earnestly participate in the hobby makes you a 40k player. Nobody gets to decide that for you. Good luck on meeting your deadline. But I beg of you, give the bases a pass even if it's just a flat color with a black rim. To me a model always looks incomplete until the base is accounted for.
>>96856505Not from any official channels.
>>96856234>>96856290These are looking good, you are getting the hang of this!
>>96856234wtf you actually painted them this time
i'd rather post here then touch reddit. praise be.
How would Drukhari deal with Emperor's Children as captives? They can't cause agony since any pain and suffering to try to cause will do the opposite to Emperors Children. They aren't really getting any sustenance then.
>>96856633They probably can get something out of them after a lot of effort. But, considering that EC are followers of Slaanesh, they probably just kill them all as a safety precaution
>>96856633Stick them in the arena to farm other people's suffering.
>>96856633>>96856654>>96856657dont drukhari have some kind of null effect to cancel out that masochism on them? wouldnt that let them torture them like normal?
>>96856633they'd put them in some sort of sensory deprivation tank which would be excruciating for any slaanesh follower
>>96856633Drukhari can feed off of extreme pleasure as well as pain. Pain is normally just easier for them to inflict in excess because most beings can feel a lot more extreme pain than pleasure.They'll give the Slaanesh marine the time of their lives as they vivisect them without anesthetic to make a new ottoman.
>>96856633Kabalite? Put him in the penor numbing chamber followed by the penor explosion chamber
>>96856736>penor explosion chamberI have a different idea
>>96856271>undrilled barrels>mold lines >a noticeable nubIve JUSTed myself again
>fixing up 30 betrayal at calth marines to run as tacticals>normally dread batch painting>for some reason I'm kind of excited even though I know they'll scale very strangely with my primarisFeels weirdman
>>96856758Skin is a little dusty looking. Try mixing more half steps when you are drybrushing up from black>grey>white. It'll help smooth things out quite a bit so you don't see as much graininess like the forearm of the lad in the green shirt. Also you forgot>no basing
>>96856825>coraxcringe
>>96856826ur cringe
>>96856827that's how I know corax is cringe
>>96856770atm its a fairly dark grey primer > screaming skull > wraithbone, i dont have a proper intermediary paint in between dark grey to screaming skull. i prefer that warm colour and not sure if theres a light grey / darker bone colour that would suit it>no basingi do that shit when im done painting the entire squad
>>96856835>my models get enough positive attention that I dont feel a need to be an obnoxious cuntfeels good
>>96856836Try rakarth flesh. It's somewhat desaturated and will be brighter than your grey but darker than screaming skull
>>96856847think ive got that somewhere, ill give that a try next. i think the screaming skull drybrush might be unnecessary as its so close to wraithbone
>>96856271Reposting because I have done nothing with them yet today
>based jannies purging the vtumor avatargag
>>96856849Screaming skull is also kinda translucent so that could be giving you issues too. Try skipping the screaming skull and see how you like it. I've never had a good time with that paint for anything
I love my big red wife magnus the red
Think ill be painting this pile of guns all week. Gonna make this my first attempt at weathering (or not)
MAKING LISTS IS SO FUCKING ANNOYING NOW AHHHHH>oh no I'm 25 points over the limit>oh now I'm 30 points under>oh now I have to change 3 units because I have literally zero lee way
>>96856866can you at least try to make it more grim dark? Like magnus walking through a battlefield?
>>96856874If you're playing with your friends offer them free rerolls for each 5pts you're over.
>>96856271henlo friends i have made a model for the collage
>>96856383>no interest in any of the christmas boxesGood, people who get hyped up over those for mediocre discounts absolutely confound me.Even worse is the scalpers who buy them up to resell at a point where it's flat out RRP, and those who buy from them naturally.The whole thing is just very silly.
>>96856878Damn that was quick anon. Naisu
>>96856878why aren't the skulls breaking under the weight of the dreadnought?
>>96856881We live in a world where people just Google the thing they want and click on the top link and buy it.
>>96856886Maybe he's on the moon? And carries a harpoon? But there weren't no whales, so he tells tall tales and sings his whaling tune?
Who is in the wrong here?
>>96856909>t'austopped reading lmao
>>96856909Who has girls with bigger tits
>>96856909>Ancient Aeldari ruins>Craftworld Eldar still fucking about thereClearly the Tau for trying to colonize a world already owned
>>96856909Always Eldar. If they'd just stop being cryptic speak-in-riddles motherfuckers for one damn second soooooo many conflicts could have been circumvented.
>>96856926What's cryptic about "fuck off or die"?
>>96856926In this instance they were pretty clear though
>>96856855How bad are the flight stands? Dunno if I should bother with pinning mine to some ruins.
>>96856909Both parties are in the wrong. The eldar for refusing to explain why the world must be left unoccupied and the Tau for refusing to budge from their imperialist dogma. Presumably an accord could be reached where the Tau are allowed to have a colony on the planet so long as they not try to unearth old aeldari relics from the ruins or make contact with the exodites, who literally cannot live under Tau rule and lifestyle or else have their soul consumed or even draw demons into the world.
>>96856930>>96856931They didn't claim ownership of it, or give any reason. No "This is our world, we do not appreciate your presence, fuck off or die.", no "this world is cursed, fuck off or die.", no "Hey, that magic sword you have there is fucking evil you should destroy it, fuck off or die".I mean, the statement that the fighting was in ancient ruins does ather imply it was not presently colonised and actively lived in, so why not claim what's been left by the wayside?
>>96856935There is no way in hell the tau ever stand for having another people on a world not integrated into their society or leave a potential technological Discovery unexploited. It is literally against their religious dogma. Even explaining to them that there are reclusive people here or hidden weapons and technologies would only make them commit more to trying to take the world. Eldar were in the right on this one.
>>96856942Aeldari once lived there. The Asuryani will not allow trespassers to defile the world with their presence.
>>96856948The T'au at the end of the Elemental Council novel retreated from a human world as a gesture of goodwill and an apology to its human population.
>>96856875He can't because that slop isn't made by anon and is actually taken from exhentai galleryt:knower
>>96856875no, only porn. I only post it because I like porn and want to post porn everywhere. I do this in several other generals and major social media websites.
>>96856881I know. If there is no discount, why do you want a box with a bunch of models that aren't your first choice? Why not just buy the specific kits you want and build the army of your dreams?
>>96856909you, for posting this garbage
>>96856942>They didn't claim ownership of it, or give any reasonI didnt say they did, i just said they were not cryptic they were told to leave or die and they didnt leave and are dying
>>96856955They did so explicitly because they believed that the humans who were forced back into the Imperial system would rebel and spread Tau sympathy.
>>96856955Because the Tau expect that the hearts and minds of ignorant humanity will change in time.The Eldar, long as they live, will never change their hearts or minds.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96856967No. It was an apology for the rough treatment the population suffered at the hands of the Tau (they were manipulated into it by Imperial spies). Also, as a reward for saving the life of an Ethereal.The human world was allowed to declare independence from the Tau Empire.
>>96856909>please leave our planet k thx bye>nooo you need to embrace the light of allah, habibi, get my gundam readyClearly Tau are in the wrong
>>96856983>This world was promised to me 3 million years ago!By squatter's rights, the Tau are in the right.
>>96856964If you hate 40K lore why are you here?
>>96856987Eldar showed up on the planet shortly after Tau arrived. It's clearly still being actively watched over and not abandoned.
>>96856990I dunno, maybe because I like the hobby aspect? You know, since that's what this board is about?
>>96856934The flight stands are fine, they are really solid and dont wobble like celestinesI really prefer them to them jumping off of ruins honestly
>>96857002There is a purely hobby general, /wip/. Go post there
>>96857011There is a reason the purely "fluff" general is in /trash/
>>96857011wip means work in progress in case you dont realise, this general is for finished work. You lorefags do not belong here and never will
>>96857037Wrong. It's finished and not.
>>96856383I am vaguely interested in the Tau one since I don't have a Riptide or Farsight. But it's probably not worth the bother.Plus, it's basically the same as last year but swapping a Ghostkeel for Crisis Team and Custom Commander for Farsight.They're really not bringing anything especially intersting to the table.
>>96857043go back
What's the lore behind the Rogal Dorn tank? And why Malcodor tank is a much better model?
>>96857007Same. I much prefer flight stands or brass rod to the parchment shit on celestine or ruin leapers.
>>96857036oh there's plenty of "fluff" on /trash/ nyuk nyuk nyuk
>>96857049The lore is "we want to replace leman russ and make IG players have to get a new model".
>>96857011What is this general for? People who want to talk about the actual game barely get any replies. It's just ritualposting and retards shitting on factions they don't like.
>>96857049that rogal dorn found a bigger tank than leman russ
>>96856271
>>96857049I dont care for that turret
>>96857069Discussing BL
>>96857100Boy's Love? What's your favourite gay couple then? Mine's trazyn and orrikan.
>>96857069>What is this general for?Unironically a containment thread for off board shitposters
>>96857104>orrikantourist
>>96856290Why is there all that gritty texture all over him. What the fuck happened when you primed him?Strip it all off and try again
>>96857069containment thread for the most mentally ill people on the board, obviously.
Please forgive the /v/ posting.So Darktide is getting a new class soon (more news on the 11'th). What do you think it is?I believe it will be an Adeptus Mechanicus class. Not sure if it's Tech Adept/Priest or Skitarii.Reasons why I believe this:-Mechanicus 2-DoW4 having AdMech as one of the factions-Rogue Trader's 3'rd DLC having an Augmentics system-Spess Muhreen 2 is getting a Techmarine class.
You can tell the Imperium are the good guys by how IRL trannies and communists hate it. They have an entire subreddit called Sigmarixsm where they rant about the evil fascist imperium and how it doesn’t allow HRT
What's everyone liking in the current meta? Is chaff clearing becoming more important with all the T3 army dominance right now?
>>96856983>habibi, get my gundam readykek it do be like dat
>>96857131/pol/ is over there, dipshit
>>96857126its a ratling. why do I know this? Because I said so. fuck you.
>>96857131The Imperium is explicitly pro-trans and has several service members represented as such in the books. So clearly they are the bad guys.Craftworld Eldar banish all the gays and browns and gooners from their society so clearly they are the good guys
>>96856909It’s a fucking ruin. If the Eldar aren’t gonna use it, the Tau might as well.
>>96857136I’m fine where I am troon
>>96857126woah a new class? has is really only been 3 months? didnt they say something like that, you know, that they would release a new class every 3 months. i thought for sure darktide had been out longer than that huh
>>96857131does aos even have hrt? they'd surely be the more transphobic ones
>>96857126It's gonna be a Slorpestus Glorpedeon from the Adeptus Fuckoffbacktoyourboardstes, as foreshadowed in Book 2312 of famed Horus Heresy series.
>>96857147Sigmar canonically does gender confirmation surgery when he makes you a Stormcast eternal
Queer chaos forever!
>>96857147There is a gender change mixture and wheelcars in aos rpg. Until recently, aos were been a dump pit for modern trends
>>96857134I know the admech got some buffs and they're stupid now because their units are priced as if they were still trash but why are sisters at the top again?And crazy how Riptide getting +1 str on 1 gun or something moved Tau from the bottom of the list to top.
>>96856909At the end of the day might makes right. If the Imperium or the Eldar want to stop the Tau from being able to colonize their lands, they need to be strong enough to actually stop it from happening.
the virtue signalling is getting out of hand. everyone so keen to thrust their politics in people's faces. we get it, you're scared of the red menace and dudes in drag, we're just here to play with toy soldiers.
>>96857162>we're just here to play with toy soldiers>we>after talking about "the red menace and dudes in drag"Commietroon outed xirself lmao
>>96857147As much as there is in 40k. >>96857159>wheelcarsdwarves did it first in fantasy BEFORE it was cool.
>>96857140>you live in a city, your parents live in a coutryside>parents die and their house is left abandoned for a few years becasue rest of the family is too busy>when you finally go to visit, the entire plot of land has been taken over by mexican squatters who believe they own the place now
>>96857165They just really hate Tau and Eldar
>>96857171Americans is this real?
>>96857126Datamining is leaning heavily to Necromunda inspired Bounty Hunter / Gang affiliated class.
>>96857178No. Most of America has always saying you can just shoot people for being on your land. The exceptions are mostly lib cities
>>96857171only muricans can defend moving a thousand miles from their parents for a corporate drone cubicle. for the rest of the world it's borderline psychotic not caring about your parents that way
>>96857160Undid the nerfs from earlier in the year that gutted them... then they kept a bunch of their compensation buffs. They were balanced almost perfectly at their height of popularity.That said, they actually have more than one way to play the army now as well! Champions of Faith, Army of Faith and Bringers of Flame are all much better balanced against each other internally. Sisters got treated very well this edition, other than the wierd gutting for no reason that only lasted for 3 months. They have been treated better than space marines have desu and MUCH better than GSC/Admech who are kind of a trinity with sisters for hyper expensive niche army.
>>96857126I wish it was a battle sister but there is no way it would be
>>96857188tell that to my parents who put me on my ass at 15 years old. It goes both ways. The parents offer their children nothing, only demands, trauma and emotional manipulation. Often actual rape, violence or theft. The American family unit is utterly destroyed, and there is no good social safety net for the people who lose their families or just dont have them.
>>96857187So squatters rights is just a meme? You can legally shoot them? America is usually kinda cucked but that's pretty cool.
>>96857188To be fair, from what I hear about a lot of American Boomer and Genx parents the resentment is rather well earned.
>>96857204It varies based on state and municipality but in general yes. It’s the castle doctrine-if someone comes into your castle you have the right to expel them with force
>>96857204Squatters rights only applies if you leave your property empty for a long time. All that shit about squatters in expensive houses happens in mansions that lie empty so they can be rented occaisonally. Yes, about 15% of Americas real estate is vacant, not because of demand but because 80% of that vacancy is real estate brokers who sit on it as an asset that has value. No laws limit the amount of houses you can just sit on. empty. Its why you see the retarded rents like in NYC or San Diego where a closet is 5000 USD a month.
>>96857175There is such a thing as squatter’s rights, you can’t just abandon a piece of property for 20,000 years and expect nobody else will use it for anything else. And since the Eldar are dying, they’re definitely not gonna be returning anytime ever to use it.
>>96857056Lovely celestine anon
perpetuals are the dumbest stupidest concept in warhammer
>>96857140>we heckin SNEED to bulldoze Pompeii to house infinity bomalians!
>>96857142That was for the original plan, when classes were more like the careers in Vermintide 2. It took a looong while for Fatshark to put out the fires from the bungled launch and implement much needed subsystems. I'm told this happened with VT2 as well (And I'm betting it will happen with the next Fatshark game as well)I only started playing after patch 13. I missed out on the worst suffering based what I've heard from friends. A lot of people think Patch 15 - Unlocked and Loaded was the point where Darktide was actually finished.
Why the fuck do Imperial ships have so few guns despite being so long?Does GW not understand that Star Wars ships manage way more on smaller platforms, as do Tau ships, or do they just not care how impotent this makes their setting?
>>96857056I generally agree but I actually like how it came out on Celestine.
>>96857220>A lot of people think Patch 15 - Unlocked and Loaded was the point where Darktide was actually finished.i hope not. if thats what finished darktide looks like and plays like then its fucking awful. just play vermintide 2 instead, its a million times superior.
>>96857228
>>96857225>Why the fuck does HMS Dreadnought have so few guns despite being so long?>Does Jackie Fisher not understand that pre-dreadnoughts manage way more on smaller platforms, as did HMS Victory, or does he just not care how impotent this makes the Royal Navy?
>>96857126>>96857220I dunno, ask >>>/v/
>>96857232>Little Kitten, is that you?
>>96857186Interesting, would you mind providing sauce? Some have speculated on a Bounty Hunter or Ganger class due to the "Broker" codename from a datamine which also had the Arbitrator's "Adamant".I've seen this image floating around, which could point towards something AdMech being the next class.
>>96857219Shouldn’t be losing the war, this ain’t Peacehammer
>>96857228Well, agree to disagree. I think the game is in a great state. It has the most satisfying gameplay loop of anything I have ever played. Dodge, Staggers, Stamina Management, balancing offense and defense, whipping out your ranged options for the specials... yea it just hits different. It hits good.The only thing that we should have that we don't, imo, is private single player lobbies. And desu a mod adds them (and you can have as many bots as you want and using all your gear/cosmetics) so its really no big loss.
>>96857225So it can house fewer but larger weapons?A nova cannon round is like 50 meters across, is fired at close to the speed of light, has a range of two light-minutes and I'm sure many captains would prefer that to 400 peashooters that could fit in it's place.
>>96857244That's a completely different argument to be made. Typical of your kind to deflect and weasel on the fly like that tho
>>96857252Might makes right loser, woe to the conquered
>>96857259Again, not the original argument you tried to make nor is it a debate the eldar are currently losing, seeing as they're locked in a standstill atm.
>>96857199Sisters are cool, but I don't see them as a playable class at this moment. There's too much overlap with the Zealot. Hopefully in the future?>>96857228I've played some VT2. I like it and want to play more, but it doesn't scratch the same itch as DT does. And VT2 took ages to get good from what I gather. I'm sure DT will get even better with age.>>96857148>>96857236Got a chuckle out of me. And I won't bother future generals with /v/ content. I guess I'm too used to old /tg/ where we didn't need the other boards.
>>96857281>I guess I'm too used to old /tg/ where we didn't need the other boardsOnly nogames ever shilled that terrible meme

>>96857288/vg/ i mean fuck
>>96856179Hey guys, it's once again time for the collage anchor posts. This months theme is "something spooky" and was left up to your own interpretation.As always I'll check the archive too but submitting your models in reply to my anchor posts is the best way to not be missed. I'll try to make a post every thread until the deadline on friday.Here is the link to the november vote:https://strawpoll.com/ajnE1PQ0BnW
Anyone knows where this multimelta might be from?
>>96857302I think it's from the Space Marine 2 game that the Heavy class uses.
>>96857304???? It's from the legion of the damned kit.

Going to let my post decide what I work on next1-5 metal sisters6-0 plastic sistersDubs - a random handful of metal guardsmen from various regiments
>>96857269They’re still the losers on the galactic stage which is the only stage that matters. In the end, the Imperium is always the winner.Cope and seethe xeno loser
>>96857329You're a loser in real life and that's the only stage matters lmao
>>96857320ROLLAN FOR DUBSI don't really like the metal sisters desu, I think the plastic kits captured the soul of the old metal ones but rendered them in beutiful new proportions and detail.Its not compromised like primarishart stuff is.

>>96857335Sorry anon, I meant my post but it was plastic sisters anyway.I agree with you with the new kits capturing the soul of the old ones but I still love the old models as they are what I started my army with and they will always hold a place in my heartJust about to start on a plastic retributor squad

>>96857357What anon said last thread proves itself again, they really are insecure.

>>96857365I can't really blame them when people like >>96857402 bite the bait every time
>>96857355>Building on Native American burial grounds will definitely never come back to haunt me
>>96857403The eldar are in the wrong. They sit and do nothing with the maiden worlds, and when a (relative to 40k) benevolent faction comes along to live there they spazz out and say they’ll murder them if they don’t leave. The Tau are acting in self-defense. This is all a moot point though, given that every planet will belong to the true inheritors of the galaxy, pic related.
>>96857418How about I go to your house and take it over? I'll make better use of it
>Flamers - 6>Heavy Flamers 2>Storm bolters - 8>Heavy bolters - 4>Meltas - 1>Multimeltas - 4I have absolutely no clue what past me was thinking
>>96857402Here’s a tip sweetheart. Everything your faction does, the Imperium does better. Even the stuff your faction is specialized in, the Imperium is still superior at.
>>96857418so if entered your room and refused to leave until i converted you to become a jehovahs witness and you then said "no please leave", then i would be morally correct to kill you?
>>96857418Yeah, eldar are in the wrong, they should've murdered the mexican fishes without a warning instead.
>>96857428My faction specializes in worshipping Chaos. Checkmate, loyalist.
>>96857432That's how European colonialism worked yeah, so the Tau are the evil NATO/american empire colonising a place that the locals don't like
>>96857442And who was it that gave Chaos 9 legions? Who is it that contributes the most cultist and whose emotions making but 99% of the power of the warp?Oh yeah, that’s right, the Imperium.
>>96857425>>96857432The better analogy would be American settlers in the 1800s moving into the lands of the plains indians. They weren’t using every scrap and parcel of land, but still spazzed out and got btfo for their trouble.>>96857434Biel-Tan would have

>>96857489Who is Shane
Finally bit the bullet and bought the introductory set, also bought a set of pencils and a handling grip for the miniatures. Excited to start! Shame that they're so expensive for me as I basically pay double the price due to taxes.
>>96857494He’s the writer for Chaos, he’ll do anything to wank them off as the ultimate threat to the universe even when nobody cares and thinks it’s cringe
>>96857462The old big gunz if you have any, the metal painboy / meks as they look quite retro
>>96857494Shane Chaos, he invented Chaos
>>96857495Welcome, anon. Why pencils?
>>96857509I think he might have meant brushes and it translated wrong
>>96856290your brush control is fine but you primed in bad conditions leading to him being covered in detritus, This is borderline worthy of the THIN YOUR PAINTS meme even if that isn't actually what happened. Strip him in so cleaner and start over, i'm dead serious. You can do much better than this
>>96857489>He doesn’t knowChaos is on their side nigga, they got the 300 mile tall milf goddess crushing Nurgle daemons between her tits on their side
>>96857508nice job shane you dickhead

Planning my Chaos Lord kitbash. I need to include a melee weapon, and was thinking a mace. Does anyone have any ideas where I could place it?Currently my only idea is letting it lean against a tactical rock, but I'm not fully sold on the idea
>>96857555Could have the head of the mace poking out beneath the cloak, or placing it so its being held aganist the shin of the leg not on the tactical rock
>>96857281The GW employees have sadly been shitting up the general for ten years so useful discussion is difficult on here.
>>96857555the model is not big enough for the helmet to sit snugly like thatit will look like a funkopop instead use a hood without a marine helmet underneath and elevate the model with a taller tactical rock and a backpack with trophies
>>96857555Carried by a chaos Cherub/Servitor/FamiliarOr if you're feeling extra gaudy, floating nearby telekinetically
>>96857555>Does anyone have any ideas where I could place it?familiar carrying it
>>96857555Lord Tinyhead
>>96857598Your idea is so much cooler than mine holy shit I didn't even consider cyborg corpse babies carrrying equipment or just magic.
are there any SM units that can dual wield bolt pistols? I know you can wrangle a couple to be dollar store cyphers, but i don't want plasma
>>96857594>>96857608They're the same size, see pic related>>96857598>>96857606FUCK that's perfect, thanks anons
>>96857609I am but a humble brainbug, but good luck.
>>96857555this will looks too much like platemail and not power armor even if you add a backpack.It's easier to just use AoS or fantasy heads or helmets than the reverse, it was easier to make this work for World eaters because world eaters already wear gloves and armor scraps because they're too retard in universe to make other things work
>>96857643The head might be.The neck joint area isn't.
>>96857643yeah but that helmet looks coolthe marine one looks goofy on that body
>>96857669Nothing a little trimming/greenstuffing can't fix
>>96857509>>96857512I saw this one technique on Youtube for highlighting and weathering which I would like to try out with at least one model, was never really good with a brush.
>>96857489doesnt matter, since 40k is not a story that will "end" someday with any faction winning.
>>96857683My bad then.Care to share?I have used a pencil for cracks in marble but not for highlighting
Why do people like the Tau anyways?>Oh I like elite infantryTempestus Scions and Space Marines and Custodes do it better>Oh I like mechsDreadnoughts, Knights, and Titans do it better>Oh I like auxiliariesOgryn, Ratlings, and Beastmen in the Imperium do it better>Oh I just don’t like constant miseryNobles on a paradise planet in the Imperium are some of the happiest people you’ll ever meet
>>96857669then just... cut it down? Anon have you never kitbashed before?
Should I varnish my models if I don't even plan to play / handle them?
>>96857722Best gooner army for weebs
>>96857725If they are plastic, you are probably goodIf they are metal, always varnish them
>>96857722I really think this just boils down to aesthetic. Tau Gundams are way different from Battletech Knights so you’ll get divergent audiences. Yes I am aware Battletech steals from Macross before anyone here tries to yuk it up with that.
>>96857722They're cyberpunk
>>96857722>Dreadnoughts, Knights, and Titans do it betterall ugly as shit>Ogryn, Ratlings, and Beastmen in the Imperium do it bettereven uglier than kroot>Tempestus Scions and Space Marines and Custodes do it betterboring as shit
>>96857725problem with varnishing is that it WILL effect your mini's look. So you'll always be so careful with spraying that you might as well have not sprayed anything in the first placeIf you've slapped a wash over the mini like nuln oil or argrax earthshade that works like a sort of half varnish too, so you'll probably be goood
>>96857722>X and Y do it betterno, they don't
>Just found out about the AK nazi postingYIKES
>>96857747Knights are not "ugly as shit", what don't you like about them?
>>96857426Storm Bolters where a good choice for the regular Sisters of Battle.I usually run the 10 girl squad with flamer, storm bolter, superior with storm bolter.So you could take advantage from the few things with range 24" while moving and also the AP1 miracle.At least during the Witch Hunter days.
>>96857722>Elite Infantry Scions are literally so lame even their wheels are square Space Marines are vanillaCustodes are gay and DEI>Mechs Dreads are lame now thanks to primarisKnights are a shitty armyTitans are just set dressing>auxillariesOgryns get less love than krootNot really a fan of ratlingsBeastmen are chaos only, sans one (1) character in Newcromunda>constant miseryNobles on a paradise planet aren't an army
>>96857760They have the hunched and craven posture of a coward and lack the gallant upstanding demeanor of a lord
>>96857760They look like hunchbacked gimps with furry cohorts
>>96857725If you’re just painting them to have a cool model, then paint on varnish can help improve the look of your models regardless, with the protection being a bonus.
>>96857760
>>96857722I like them because they aren’t frothing at the mouthing psychos. Some people want to be the least worst guys.
>>96857760rustbuckets that look like they could fall apart anytime
>>96857722I like how they look
>>96857780varnish always objectively makes models look worse. It's a matter of how worse you want. Matt makes them flat, gloss makes them shiny. Neither is ultimately desirable.
>>96857760you ruined your knights with those awful 3d printed fursuit masks
>>96857790t. retardvarnish unifies finishes, your models look like dogshit with some colors being more glossy than others not to even touch on them flaking and wearing off without a coat to protect them
I'm doing it I'm gonna paint my Tyranids as Hive Fleet Behemoth.
>>96857782I don’t understand why all the furries like the Imperium. I assume it’s because of the sanctioned beastmen. That, and the Space Wolves.
I keep my admech on a shelf with my uranium glass so they feel at home
>>96857802nope
>>96857798they won't flake if you don't touch. There's no need to unify if you don't use different brands.
>>96857799which version?
What is it
>>96857799leviathan is the only nid scheme worth doing. The rest look guady as hell
>>96857810Chaos Mace
>>96857806you've never painted a model in your life and it shows
>>96857804Well why is it then
>>96857790The point of using paint on varnish instead of using a spray is to apply varnish to appropriate surfaces to enhance the look. Gemstones or most metallic surfaces would be enhanced with a gloss varnish, while bones or most cloth surfaces would appreciate matte more. A spray would give a unified look more quickly, but if they’re your main dude/just decorative models, then specific application of varnish could be worth the time.
>>96857798>varnish unifies finishesnot necesserily a good thing>some colors being more glossy than otherswhat if that's the intention? certain materials are more glossy than others.>not to even touch on them flaking and wearing off without a coat to protect themstop handling your models like a monkey
>>96857798Your head is shoved so far up your ass you're wearing a dick-scarf.
>>96857838>not necesserily a good thingit is in 99% of applicationsand otherwise you can brush on another finish for specific sections>what if that's the intention? certain materials are more glossy than others.looks like shit, glossy reflections aren't in scale on miniatures>stop handling your models like a monkeySo you've just never touched models at all got it>>96857841sorry you had to find out you're a hobbylet the hard way :(
>>96857816Why

>>96857868Why is astra militarum so low? I thought tank spam was good this edition
>>96857881You need to infantry spam.
>>96857851>>96857760Put the trip back on
>>96857881Tank spam is bad and infantry spam is broken but nobody has the 150+ infantry models needed
>>96857880See>>96857874
I know you’re not supposed to think about the math, but it really bothers me how few space marines there are. There should be at least 100 billion marines for the lore to make sense. Like, put it this way, there’s probably at least 10 billion battlesuits, given the ratios of them with the fire-warriors as a whole and the total number of the Tau, but we know that the Imperium can still crush the Tau if it ever put serious effort into doing so, so logically the Imperium would have to have a military force capable of doing so which would necessitate that there are many more billions of marines than there are battlesuits, so there should be 100 billion marines or more, but realistically there should be trillions of space marines. >inb4 don’t think about mathI’m allowed to let it bother me, they need an accountant to go through their lore and make this shit make sense numbers wise
>>96857881It was too good so everyone can deal with it now. Infantry spam is the viable Guard list now.
>>96857881Guard players are like the less common sub-species of space marine players where a lot of them are 30-40-something Dads that only play occasionally. It tends to drag their win rate down even in tournaments.
>>96857910The Astra Militarum numbers in the trillions and takes care of most engagements of the imperium. Space Marines are sent to where the fighting is worst.
>>96857922Those numbers are too low too, the Imperial Guard needs to number in the quadrillions, there should be trillions of soldiers fighting on singular planets
>>96857905150 models is not much. GSC usually run 120 and they are not even trying to push the horde aspect, just running the basic bitch units to make the army function.
>>96857930Trying too hard
>>96857905>>96857933>150 The tournament winning list was like 230~ models
>>96857870I can't even decipher your nonsense at this point, good day to you sir.
>>96857946>226 modelsJesus
>>96857946Exactly what I'm saying 150 is not much.Hence why I mention GSC that have a rather expensive horde army and they still run around 120 model.Even in my meme aberrant list that I intentionally try to bring a low number of models I end with over 100 models.
>>96857946God I fucking hate how Guard have been uniquely singled out to have this forced-specific regiment unit bullshit
>>96857946This list makes me happyHorde style is not dead yet
>>96857989no they haven't
>>96857989Yeah its not very thematic, is it? Unfortunately GW makes more money if they sell all the guardsmen kits to all guard players
>>96857943There are literally minor crusades happening right now with hundreds of billions of dead guardsmen’s fighting on insignificant fronts of no importance.For this to be the case, there should abso-fucking-lutely be more guardsmen than mere “trillions”. Shit dude, there’s trillions of fire warriors, that’s fucking nothing in terms of numbers.
>>96858001Yes they have?There is no generic Infantry squad anymore, you HAVE to take Cadians or Kriegs or Catachans, its so fucking dumb
>>96858001Trying too hard.Yes they have.
>>96858013>Spamming/flooding
>>96858008Nice try. See >>96857943
>>96857908See >>96857880
>>96858010>you HAVE to take ultramarines or blood angels or dark angels or space wolves or templars it's so fucking dumb
>>96858027Troll detected
>>96858029>nooo if you point out how it's not a unique situation you're a heckin TROLL
>>96858032(You)
>>96858006Its LITERALLY just because only Guard have '[Planet]ian Dudes' labeling the boxes of their units, because ONLY Guard have some planet variety in the options for so many basic units, and GW's stupid wank notion that they have to keep the game so absolutely dumbed down that the units HAVE to wear the exact same names as the boxes of models do
>>96858040Agreed
>>96858027It would only be comparable if the marine codex didn't have 'Intercessors' but instead contained rules for Ultramarine Supremacors, Dark Angel Grimguard and Imperial Fist Wallmarchers, so even a Space Wolf army HAD to have smurfs, gayngels or fists in their lists if they wanted to use the basic space marine unit
>>96857860>>96857799gigabasedI want to do some of my gaunts with those grey heads and the red stripepic at 799 is the quintessential picture of what Tyranids are and should be, if you ask me. Earlier editions were still trying to figure them out as a faction, later editions started running away with it a bit too much, after 4th.This image is what all tyranid designs should be trying to fit into. I want a proper "vehicle" morph that looks like that thing in the background, instead of the Tervigon and its weird preggo shit. Basically a giant tyranid armored caterpillar that becomes "infested" with gaunts as it crawls along the battlefield.Or maybe it could be some kind of mobile bioprocessor, a biomass plant that acts as a transitional source of nutrition for ground forces while the capillary towers are still growing.
>>96858008Read Deathwatch, Jericho Reach, page 59
>>96857364I wanna do my dakkajet. don't force me to buy more rocket bits for more stormboyz
>>96858063intercessors are an ultramarine unit
>>96857989Yeah, it's retarded.It literally punish you if you play lore accurate with a single themed regiment.We CSM players had a similar problem for decades with the Marks. Until very recent editions, you had to mix and match marks of chaos in your army, and if you themed your army with only one it was a genuine punishment.
Can't you just theme an army however and use each of the 3 major squads to show differing combat roles
>>96857946>3 X Cadian Castellan (Scare Gas Grenades)Oh, are enhancements not unique? You can take each one more than once?
>>96858112no, gw hires pinkertons to break your knees and your miniatures' knees when you do
>>96857936>Pictograph of a valiant custodian facing against a tyranid biotitan-Year 120. M42, Colourised.
>>96857930>The Imperial Guard needs to number in the quadrillionsThere are roughly 54 quadrillions humans in the Imperium across all known hiveworlds. 1 quadrillion on Terra alone (somehow).I dunno what battlefield would need TRILLIONS of guardsmen on ONE planet. That's a little nuts even for the human wave tactics of the imperium. Like a single trillion is beyond comprehension many many times over, a thousand billion is insane. Having two thousand billion or more is even more insane. No I dont think any war anywhere could host a trillion soliders. billions? fuck yeah I'd buy that, trillions? no. Quadrillions of guardsmen across the galaxy? sure, but not in one system
>>96858112Even just on paper its dumb and exemplifies modern GW's ludicrously-rigid thought processes
>>96858124no, he probably means one has it
>>96858126Good luck, i gave all my minis vents instead
>>96858140>1 quadrillion on Terra alone (somehow).It's "quadrillions" actually so even more than a mere 1 quadrillion (Watchers of the Throne: The Emperor's Legion).
>>96858140Armageddon and Cadia definitely could’ve used trillions of soldiers.Keep in mind we’re talking about a setting where hundreds of billions of soldiers on a single planet is considered a minor distraction for an insignificant enemy not worth the Imperium’s time.
>>96858161>Quadrillions >At least 1,000,000,000,000 two thousands times over>1,000 times 2,000,000,000,000 live on Terra at leastThat's beyond insane, even for a planet thats a giant slum everywhere excpet for the big empty palaces and vaults and the Golden Palace itself. On top of the huge amount of fantics and pilgrims that go there in generational lines.
>>96858162I mean this is the same setting that had the Badab war be remembered hugely costly and bloody war that killed like 17 million soliders total and less than 5,000 space marines across like 12 chapters. But was big enough that 2 first founding chapters got involved as did the Grey Knights
>>96857668oh yeah, official 40k power army would never just be regular plate armor blessed by a god. That'd just be ridiculous
>>96858184And that’s why the setting needs to add 6 zero’s onto the end of most battles. 17 million soldiers is nothing, 17 trillion soldiers makes sense.Likewise, space marines should number 1 trillion strong, not 1 million
I WANT MORE SQUIGS
>>96858184Why are we talking about numbers in 40k?It is a known fact that GW writers get confused when numbers have more than 2 digits.
>>96857760Put the trip back on or stop avatarfagging
>The galaxy contains some four hundred thousand million stars of various types. Of these only a fraction are presumed to have habitable planetary systems, and only a fraction of these have been investigated. Most are situated within the spiral arms between ten and forty thousand light years from the galactic center.>The very size of the galaxy means that, despite the use of faster than light warp drives, most of it remains unknown. Even the human controlled lmperium. by far the largest and most widely distributed of all stellar empires, contains only a tiny fraction of the galaxy‘s stars. New worlds are constantly being discovered and investigated, along. with their attendant civilizations, creatures and resources. Even so. there is no possibility of either humans or aliens exhausting the galaxy's potential to provide new worlds for habitation and exploitation.Warhammer 40,000 Rogue Trader (1987)>As powerful as it is. the lmperium does not rule the entire galaxy. Mankind's worlds are spread thin across the 200.000.000.000 stars that make up the galaxy. withim the lmperium's vague borders are rebellious enclaves of human worlds. domains ruled over by alien war leaders. colonies of creatures too aloof or basic to disturb mankind or draw the attention of the war fleets. The lmperium is engulfed in a constant state of war. Sometimes simply continuing its wars of expansion, other times fighting against foes who threaten the survival of the entire human race.Warhammer 40,000 3rd edition rulebook (1998)The numbers you see are intentionally small to make the galaxy a dark and scary place, the writers knew exactly what they were doing even if these exact quotes are about the number of planets owned by the Imperium specifically, not troop numbers.
>>96858191That's clearly power armorAnd it's not blessed by a god
>>96858208Don't try and start a new argument over old shit you twerp.
>>96858192Would chapters remain at 1k or get increased to 10k? I think a 10k chapter on average would make more sense, and also explain how WHOLE COMPANIES fall to chaos independent of their chapter we see be the backstory of several minor warbands in codexes. Losing track of a hundred guys in a thousand sized chapter when thats your full time job is a stretch, makes more sense in bigger organisation
>>96858215But then that makes no sense with the power scaling we’re given.
>>96858219Put the trip back on
>>96858215It doesn't make it dark or scaryIt just makes it lack cohesion or weight
>>96858223You just harass me with the trip calling me "Tripfaggot", it seriously made no difference.

>>96858254NTA but At least when you had the trip I didn't have to see your giganigger dogshit posts
I think it's time for a new sponge
>>96858259>giganigger dogshit postsand I'm the one banned from community events.
@96858263which you deserve
>>96858197Same. Sadly, sniggerz are probably done and dusted despite me wanting squig mounted artillery/a squig gunner chariot and a squigtank to round out the army. Or squighog variants. Or fuck, just bring back the squiggoth.At least I can nab AoS squigs and use em to kitbash vehicles I suppose
>>96858176>That's beyond insaneAs it typical of people who complain about GW numbers.
>>96858265Do you think you're cool or hip for not directly replying to me?
>>96858254Put the trip back on
>wonder why Armageddon is so important in the setting>turns out it’s just a massive functionally planet sized tank factory for the ImperiumWell that makes a lot more sense.
@96858273now type it again but this time without crying
>>96858263You use 4chan as if it's reddit. If you want attention go back there.
>>96858267A whole wave of Squig-focused Orks being invented and STILL NO PLASTIC SQUIGGOTH is fucking absurd, that they came up with the stupid chariots instead leaves me thinking they MUST have been purposefully avoiding it for some reason if thats what they went with instead
>>96856179How the actual fuck do I make sure I don't miss spots while painting models specifically space marines? >if I prime before assembling I have to go back and scrape areas clear for the plastic glue>if I prime afterwards I create unreachable crevaces like armpits and whatnot
>>96857799I have decided to paint my Orks as Goffs. Perhaps we’ll encounter eachother for the peakest of kino matchups in 40k.
>>96858283>that they came up with the stupid chariots insteadI wouldn't even call the kill rig a chariot. It's too ponderous and awkward to fit that description. If squighogs are analogous to bikes I'd want a chariot to be analogous to the buggies/cars.>they MUST have been purposefully avoiding it for some reasonMy guess is it didn't fit the "aesthetic" they wanted sniggersquigs to have. The squoggoth has always been an odd looking squig I suppose, but I always found that part of its charm.
>>96858282Stop implying that I want negative attention, I want the basic levels of attention that any normal person would expect coming here to discuss any topic.
>>96858260Ew
>>96858278It also used to be ulanor prime where the emperor held his victory parade and also where The Beast made his homeIt seems to call out to orks on some level
>>96858300If that were true you wouldn't reply to every single post even indirectly mentioning you faggot
So I'm sitting on like 100 Clanrats in storage right now. Anyone have any ideas for kitbashing these into a Skaven-themed Space Marine or CSM army of some sort?
>>96858278And then you realize that the Imperium has 32,000 other planet-sized tank factories and Armageddon isn’t so important anymore
>>96858318Make cheesestealer cult
>>96857868New codex is fine. Good rules, good internal balance. They just fucked up on the points and raised them up on units that got side grades instead of upgrades. A few janky rules still need some clarification too.
>>96858318Do skaven votann for the memes
>>96858218Sure anonAlso Emperor's Champion gear being genuinely blessed by Big E has been canon for a while now. Hell they played hot potato with the Black Sword once when Big E got directly involved. Any Templar picking it up transformed into a super saiyan
>>96858287Put some white tack on the connection points before priming
Why doesn’t the Imperium just go from planet to planet of their enemies and exterminatus them>inb4 “what if they want to take them later”Yeah no the Imperium knows that 9 times out of 10 they’re never getting that planet back.
>>96858366What would that accomplish? Plenty of Imperial worlds got exterminatused (like Tallarn) and they're doing just fine.
>>96858366exterminatus is expensiveand they have to deal with the orbital defenses of these worlds
>>96858366If only they had used exterminatus on your mothers womb then we wouldn't have to deal with these dogshit questions.
>>96858379Why are you so angry? You give off an incel vibe
>>96858327>Good internal balanceEhhh, there are some big exceptions like Hellions
>>96858396Hellions and Razorwing Jetfighters are the extreme ends. There's still plenty of reasons to run Incubi over Hellions in some detachments.
>>96858391NTA but these absolutely fucking retarded "what if" posts provide 0 value to this general. It's not even lorefaggotry, it's on the same level as power level shitposting. Kill yourself.
>>96858408The incubi vs Hellion situation is so funny because if you showed the melee profiles and lore of them to someone not familiar with the faction they'd mix then up.
Where do you think the setting is headed?
>>96858457Into a Star Wars situation.
>>96858361Idk if I can buy that around here... also sounds really time consuming, though I guess that goes for every option I have rn
>>96858457I think GWs goal is to have several eternal battlezones they can keep returning to, kind of like how magic will return to planes and people know generally what to expect
>>96858457more marvel slop and dead characters being brought back (Kurze / Sanguinius)
>>96858457unironically even more marinewank and primarchslop
>>96858457Serious answer: Primarch BowlIt's all but confirmed the majority of the remaining primarchs are returning. New fans seem to absolutely latch onto the primarchs, complete casuals who've never touched a model in their life can tell you half of all the primarchs' life stories. And GW is clearly aware of the cash cow they have, as they immediately announced the Scouring after the Heresy was completed so they could pump out more primarch contentPersonally not the biggest fan, but eh.
is there any reason to go to an actual official gw store versus any store that carries 40k?do they get access to stuff that third party retailers don't have?
>>96858457Hope you enjoy the primarchs
>>96858464where the hell do you live that doesn't have white tack.Also it's not any more time consuming than just putting glue on the connection points
>>96858490If your sprue has a single fuck-up, it doesn't matter how miniscule (rare but happens), GW will send you an entire new kit for free and you can keep the old one. But only if you bought it directly from them.
>>96858496I only have two small game stores near me, one of which didn't even carry plastic glue. Although, who can say, maybe they'll have some at hobby lobby or something. It does sound easier than scraping paint off every time. I'll give it a shot
>>96858493>>96858477>>96858478why does everyone here hate primarchs so much.
>>96858457Horus Heresy 2
>>96858408>>96858408Grotesques are the best shock infantry, only advantage for helions would be deep strike and for inqubi a trasport.
>>96858509poster tack is sold in any grocery store
>>96858509White tack is sold in regular stores. Any hobby, arts, or office supply store has it. Or just order them online
>>96858510Some people think that named characters ruin the setting because it's not nameless man #10067849Dont worry about i
>>96858468Isn't that how the setting has always been?How many do we have right now?
>>96858510They are popular
>>96858518Grotesques don't exist anymore broski.
>>96858510I don't hate them, but Primarch focused storytelling is in direct opposition of the original goal of the setting. Now it is character driven and a smaller universe, where all the big players personally know eachother and the decisions of a single man can change the entire galaxy
I think primarchs in 30k are kinda cool but kinda gay in 40k
>>96858510>What if there were super special named characters who each had special superpowers that ommediately invalidated every other leader in their faction while also being completely plot armored to the point of essentially being invincible, and nearly every important plot was relegated to just those characters?>Oh btw only two factions actually get these characters, everyone else is now a second-class faction just because these characters exist
>>96858508i've had gw send me stuff missing from stuff i bought from third party retailers
>>96858530to some extent yeah, but what you have to remember is when we would go back to a warzone in the past people would see it as a retcon because they couldn't accept that time was passing in universe. Now in 11th we will see the 4th war for armageddon, expect the fallout from octarius, and more emphasis on naval battles as GW gets ready to relaunch battlefleet gothic (renamed to battlefleet indomitus)
>>96858478Feels good to know that the Imperium will become the unironic good guys more and more with gay xenos shit being relegated to the flavor text it should be. Warhammer 40k is about the Imperium vs Chaos, simple as
>>96858540Guilliman and the lion haven't met and the actual fan base is outraged by that.
>>96858548Correct. Warhammer 40k is fundamentally about the Imperium and humanity, with Chaos being the antagonists that represent the flaws in human nature. All xenos are window dressing at best
>>96858541I think even most Eldar players would prefer that to Yvraine being shoved down their throats
>>96858558No? GW is under threat from UN investigation for being pro-fascist so we’re going right back to the Imperium being unabashed villains if the new Black Templar and Grey Knights lore is any indication.
>>96858553nicedid they ask where you got it from, or did you just contact customer support and they send it without question? Would be good to know for the future
>>96858525>>96858527What's the best way to apply it to minis? Brush, finger? Or does it come with something to apply itself>>96858535Correct answer

>>96858718Just bought 48" of good quality rope.
Bought my first box of intercessors last night. Sadly I likely won't get to work on them for the next couple days but I'm hyped nonetheless
>>96858718Things are pretty good I just bought one of these
Does anyone have any pointers on how to start an eldar army?All the videos I find seem pretty old and I don't think they work with the codex at all
>>96858760Jeez that would've cost a bit, does the 2nd ed kit have many weapons options?
>>96858457I’m pretty sure the Tau are going to explode in size once GW sees fit to give them actual FTL. GW seems like they’re setting them up to be a major player soon, giving them their own goddess, their own primarch equivalents, their own titans, etc.
>>96858763Depends what you want, their range is hugeDo you want to focus on aspects, wraiths, flyers, bikes, clowns?
>>96858510Space marine vs space marine is boring and if I wanted that I'd play Borus Bearsex
>>96858541Mmm yess, I can smell the reddit on this post.
>>96858763I know they have some strength by look at how feeble there army looks compared to the Imperium or Necrons, its kinda pathetic desu
>>96858765Nah just what you see on the picture. Extra options were probably in the mail order catalouge
>>96858510If I wanted disney marvel superheroes I'd play marvel crisis protocol

>>96858812Esl-kun
>>96858775Yea that's kinda the issue they have so much stuff it's hard to know where to start. I'd rather have a mix of units than spamming the same one if that's a thing. I'm completely new to 10th so no idea if that's gonna be fine or it's gonna get me shot of the table on turn 1I have a bunch of old miniatures for MSU of most aspect warrior units, a couple vehicles and some infantry if that helps
None of you will leave because of primarchs. I would leave if Warhammer was all about gay xenos shit. That is the difference and GW knows it
>>96858839The combat patrol is pretty shit right now, no one needs dire avengers.The old CP is good if you like jetbikes.Otherwise you can't go wrong with a fire prism and a wave serpent
>>96858741Good luck buddy. I hope you end up liking the actual hobby part of things.
>>96858843Yet here you are, NOT playing HHSounds like Big Tsundere for xenos.
>>96858886I like having them as flavor, an add on. They are not the focus. I also like HH models although they are overpriced
>>96858895>[gay tsun noises]Yeah, that's what I thought.
>>96858850>Otherwise you can't go wrong with a fire prism and a wave serpentcool, I have some second hand models for those so I guess I'll start stripping and painting themAre wraithblades or firedragons fine for the wave serpent?
>time for the daily HH beggar infestationgo back to your general
>>96858895>“I-I don’t like xenos, I just prefer the systems that have them over those that don’t!”lmao
>>96858929A squad of 10 Fire Dragons in a Wave Serpent will casually delete any vehicle or monster off the table.

>>96858366What planets are you talking about?
>>96858645>>96858659>>96858674The traitor primarchs are jobbersThe loyalists primarchs are doing nothing of note and neither is the Emperor.All the heavy lifting is being done by space marinesSpace marine setting for space marine players
>>96858951>the HH beggar was decalmutant all alongYou can't be serious
>>96858833>"When I strike at Terra it will be from a position of absolute strength," he said to himself, out loud.
Abaddon is afraid to attack Terra because he knows Eldrad would beat him again.
>>96858877I already got the "starter pack" with the 1 sm and 1 tyranid and liked it a ton. I also played a game with a borrowed army and had tons of fun so I think I'll be sticking with it >>96858843>>96858886I don't get you guys at all. I find both xenos and the imperium super interesting. If xenos get more attention(especially in the form of more named characters with defined and personal story arcs) that will simply serve to highlight the imperium more and make everything more immersive
>>96858941HH is a honest representation of what the setting is actually meant to be, not understanding this makes you spiritually a xenosfag
>>96859022trying too hard
>>96858843>I am a pig and I eat slop
>>96858929I like to run 5 dragons plus autarch in a falcon actually.Wave serpent plus wraithblades plus spiritseer is a good brick for holding mid table too
>>96858988If the Chaos Gods didn't pull Abaddon away, then Eldrad would have gotten a daemon sword to the face.
>>96858964My bad, it’s actually multiple worlds as part of a very minor war front.>The war in the Canis Salient has ground to a brutal stalemate with the Imperoim unable to gain significant foothold within the greyhell Front, and the Tau forced to employ every trick and stratagem they know to fend off the Crusade’s forces. The endless conflict has seen hundreds of billions of Imperial guardsmen dead to the guns of the Tau and the paranoia of the their commanders, and morale has been slipping for years
>>96859022why does it sell worse then
>>96859057Warhammer 40k the game is more balanced now than it is has ever been. In magic that isn't the case, they ruined the balance of the game for Commander players. So trying to apply the same arguments to 40k is exactly backwards. The people that want an unbalanced but "flavorful" game are the commanderfags, they are the pigs that want slop.
>>96859064Not before Abaddon got decapitated.An old half-crytalized seer killing the Warmaster of Chaos would have been a trade Eldrad was more than willing to make.
>>96858977There is a reason why he is hated by everyone
get the fucking tomb world terrain released
>>96859068Exterminatus is a whole process you have to do, you can't just have one ship shoot a torpedo and blow up a whole planet. Typically its a whole fleet that has to do it.
>>96858843But you will leave because of female space marines.
>>96859022>>96858843This is the same guy who will turn right around and say “I dunno ask /hhg/ by the way. Don’t you have something better to do?
>>96859078Abaddon would smoke him and Eldrad couldn't do a shit.
You have never been as passionate about anything you've made as the creator of the Black Lion is about his OC.
>>96859104>the guy obsessed with primarchs is the same one who uses a primarch-disnissive ritualpostNice try, false flaggot
>>96859100No one would leave because of female space marines. However they might if they follow Disney+ storytelling with said female space marines.
>>96858318Shaven tau auxiliary are a very common conversion, fire warriors come with a ton of extra guns. They have a full set of rifles carbines and shotguns.
>>96859161True. This guys dedication in on the level furry OC porn commissioners
>>96859078That's EoT lore. So if Eldrad dies, there would be no one who could stop the Deceiver from enacting his plans.
>>96859078>Warmaster of Chaos*Warmaster of the Imperium Nihilus
>>96859161I'm pretty passionate about my kids. Probably spent more money on my OC than he has.
>>96859074It doesn't
If the T'au are not communists, then why do they have this quote on the back cover of their codex? It reads plenty commie to me.
>>96859276>it doesn'tit's not even in the top 10 wargames, and keep in mind there's a MASSIVE powergap between 40k and the rest on this list
>>96859076The goals and roles are inverted, anonNoone remotely sane wants Warhammer to resemble Magic the GathericSo yes, you are the pig that eats slop!
>>96859280Tbf this kind of random hippie feelgood bullshit could be said by people with all sorts of ideologiesTau are basically communist though, yes
>>96859076>Warhammer 40k the game is more balanced now than it is has ever been.And at the same time it is the most boring, soulless edition to date at the same time.

>>96859418Wrong. Try again snotnose.

Why don't daemon princes ride around in big daemontanks and daemonbikes like they did when they were mortal

>>96859425New Bobby G
>>96859448If it looks better than the current one I'd be fine with that. If we're stuck with primarchs forever now they should at least look good
I have never talked to another female warhammer that wants female space marines. It’s almost all liberal men, which I find odd. Why do they want it so badly?
>>96859425nothing much unless they start going in on secondary first founding legion units like they did for UMthey have to save vanvets and tacticals and devastators and the new disintegrator and volkite units for the 11e starter box
>>96859434
>>96859434Doom Rider was a daemon prince riding on his bike.They need to bring him back when they do a refresh of Chaos Bikers.
>>96859459>I have never talked to another female
>>96859466>>96859471Cool. He could be the Lord Invocatus of the Emperor's Children.
>>96859466>>96859471But he's basically just a marine that they say is a prince. I want a proper big prince on a big daemon kart
>>96859325Fraid not piggie, I care about balance in games. If you just want flavor then paint whatever you want or make custom rules. Tournament spikes are above you
>>96859448>>96859457Valrak corrected himself. The new primarch rumors were for HH. 40k is getting Russ for now.
>>96859444So worthless then
>>96859448>>96859457the most unnecessary model. His is fine.
>>96859459It feeds into their savior complex. They want to feel righteous anger because it feels good to be right and just, but they also don't want to take any real risk when fighting actual injustice so they target safe non-issues and circlejerk about how good and righteous they are for posting on bluesky about how they disagree with it.
>>96859473Esl or tranny? Call it
>>96859494He needs a jump pack version.
>>96859493Wrong. Try again, snotnose.
Fabius Bile is the most important character in the setting who has made more Primarchs than the Emperor now and without him Abaddon and chaos would be powerless
>>96859493>it doesn't count because I say sosorry bud, try harder next time
>>96859512Nobody respond to that post unless you agree.

>>96859570Bunch of slack-jawed faggots around here.
