I dont care for marines but its so funny how fucking forced they're making titus be the next mascot. Rip my boy ventrus or whatever the dude who saw perty is called.
>Acheron
>What leftover models do you think other factions like Orks and Chaos will get before 11e?HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAYOU WILL GET NOTHING AND YOU WILL BE HAPPYBUY MORE MARINES
>>96967354It's the smart thing to do and honestly I'm surprised it took GW this long to finally understand that they should be working towards tying in the other games that get people into 40k proper. They should have been doing this decades ago with Dawn of War.
40k needs to be more like 30k.
>>96967379If they give us an official Blood Raven squad with the DoW launch I'll lose my shit.
>Cadia and Terra are both Chaos targets, and Cadia has fallen to Chaos>Armageddon is an Ork target>Mars is a Necron target>Tyrannids, Drukhari, Eldar, Tau, and Votann have no notable targets of importance
>>96967386It would be nice if they gave back Initiative.
>>96967386Ew. No. I bet you think blast templates are good too.
>>96967379It would be the smart thing to do if Titus had any kind of personality. Titus "fans" like Titus because that's what the marine they played as was called in the bad gears of war clone that failed over a decade ago
>>96967413Yes, they are. They are fun and evocative.
>>96967386Or you could just go play 30k
>>96967417Can you actually be a GoW clone with no cover system?
>>96967423Yeah go play with your fucking taint then for an evocative experience, it’ll give you all the options 40k lacks.
>"of all my brothers, why you?">"you were stronger than this!"
>>96967411fights normal // fights first // fights last is a better system, they just need to use it more appropriately. Power fists//Thunderhammers should be fights last per model.I'd be happy with WS returning
>>96967439I didn't say it was a good clone
>>96967417I think there's more importance to the recent game being a success, especially since it came out right around the time that 40k was (somewhat inexplicably) becoming more popular and mainstream.
>>96967430>Nooooooooooo 40k rules need to keep sucking if you don't like shit you MUST go play another game, nevermind those rules are how 40k used to be
>Vigilus in need of aid, Armageddon under attack again, and Terra under direct threat for the first time>Guilliman: tHe pRioRitY haS tO Be rEstORiNg uLtrAmAR!
>>96967453Like I said, play with your taint if this is how you’re gonna be
>>96967450I'm saying it can hardly be called a clone if it's not trying to copy the single defining gameplay feature GoW has. It's just a third person shooter like many existed before and after GoW.
>>96967423so true bro, btw you didnt hit 5 of my dudes you hit 2, here you wanna check it? Are you blind bro? Nah you always do this yOU HIT TWO GU- TAKE THOSE DICE BACK IT WAS TWO GUYS
>>96967446Weapon Profile To Hit is just renamed WS. We already have Fights First /Normal but as a compromise Fights First should be way more common.
>>96967451Titus became even less of a character in the new one with a worse voice actor who sounds bored the entire time, and the game itself didn't improve in any meaningful way, at best it attracted another small secondary following that still won't engage with the ip in any meaningful way
>>96967354SM2 sold millions of copies, they had to go with Titus
>>96967472Old WS had you measure cock sizes with the enemy, if your WS was lower it was harder to hit them. It is not the same
>>96967471You still have people argue over the rules nowadays just as bitterly as they argued over blast templates.
>>96967499yeah let's not give them more reasons to do so
>>96967488And was immediately forgotten by almost everyone that played it
>>96967491A pee pee measuring contest that should have been rolled into a modern representation of Initiative.
>>96967504They have just as many reasons regardless of what rules are pruned.
Melee T'au!
>>96967510compare this to other 40k games
The games bad because it has marines in it at the end of the day
>>96967510Does this include console players? I like SM2, its mindless fun. If it gets some people to buy minis who cares?
>>96967518Where 500 people are dumb enough to buy them before realizing the game is a cashgrab by the devs that instantly abandon it after getting their GW money
>>96967471I just don't play with annoying idiots, no reason to remove a fun mechanic. 30k still uses templates just fine.
>>96967516They couldn't make melee Tau because that would go too hard and hurt their space marine sales which they already dedicated 80% of their production too
>>96967510>all time peak 190,000Really? It felt bigger than that. Also I still play it from time to time when I just wanna smash stuff
>>96967513Old 40k is too much of a high trust system to be a good game. It's written expecting your opponent to not be a bastard, that's great if you only play with friends or people who happen to not be a bastard. If I have to play with bastards, which is gonna happen more often than with friends if I dont have a cult or closed loop friend circle, I want a system where that bastard cant make my experience more painful than it needs to be. Templates are not bastard safe.
>>96967516>>96967542
>>96967528That makes me hungry
>>96967552While I agree, I think it's a shame that it appears like the game has to kowtow to a bunch of bastards. The problem is that they're still bastards even in the new system and they still game the system (Just look at the FAQ for the current edition). Now the game suffers and you're still probably stuck playing with bastards which is painful regardless.
>>96967518This is the only other "big" 40k game. Warhammer games in general are at best mediocre, and usually are genuinely bad. The majority of their players are warhammer pigs that will buy literally anything with the warhammer logo on it
>>96967542Agreed. Melee battlesuits would be too cool and make marine players upset. Fortunately the imperium has battlesuits that we can purchase instead! Thanks GW!
>>96967549that's only on steam, was also on EGS and every console
>>96967575Well now my feelings are hurt.
>>96967586Shouldn't the grey knight and sisters be wearing helmets? Seems like a bad idea to take a big fuckoff mechasuit, and leave your head exposed right at center mass.
>>96967530>the game is a cashgrab by the devs that instantly abandon it after getting their GW moneyEven vermintide/darktide which are always talked about as being amazing get one tiny overpriced dlc once every other year. Vermintide is the worst since most of theirs are just shit they already made from the first game that they charge you again for in the second
>>96967471I'm a newfag by grog standards (started in 9E) but all the bad experiences Ive had didn't come from rules conflicts but from manchildren mad when their dice rolls are bad. Though there was one time when a guy was just wrong about Big Guns Never Tire and was convinced that he could fire his tanks main battle canon into my tanks when it was in melee with some arcoflags. He still lost even with it, I just didn't have the energy to argue with him after a point. Avoided playing with him after that and he stopped asking for games in our LGS discord eventually. That was one experience out of dozens of games though.
>>96967586FE just needs melee bonuses for their stuff otherwise it's filling a niche that's not supposed to be filled
>>96967516i'd swear an older edition had an upgrade for crisis suits that let them use their meltas as a sort of lightsaber in melee
>>96967528This what they do with the primaris lieutenants that don't meet their standards
>>96967516I'm not even a Tau player but I felt for you guys when GW put out that "close-range fighters" article showing off new minis last week and the two Tau suits had guns and not based melee weapons.
>>96967516melee tau doesnt work, you have kroot on foot or mechsuitsthose blue chinks would get minced up by even gretchens
>>96967586grey knight one and battle sister ones are stupid
>>96967575Darktide isn't trying to maintain 100k players at all times though, and the devs have said they are more than happy for the player base to drop off between big releases. And they are based for that.
>>96967461>terra under direct threat for the first timeRemember when orks carved a giant ork smiley face into Luna?
>>96967656They did?
>>96967461The priority for Captain Titus and his company*The priority for everyone else is Terra/Vigilus/Armageddon/etc.
>ATTENTION IMPERIAL GUARDSMEN: On November 12th, a most auspicious day, pious Sisters from the ADEPTA SORORITAS will be conducting the annual PENIS INSPECTION CEREMONY at oh six hundred hours.

Post what you're working on
10th edition torrent when?
>>96967512At least having a big dick would finally be good for something, I guess
>>96967683Its all on scribd
>>96967516>gets bodied by some Untermensch penal legionnaire armed with nothing but a bayonet and a few packs of lho-sticks shoved up his prison pocket
>>96967672Umironically more convincing "the imperium are le evil fascists" lore than anything I've seen published by james
>>96967670Armageddon is Ullanor, and 9k years ago the orks perfected gravity technology and turned the Planet into a super gravitic engine so it could be used as a mobile superfortress. If the orks ever capture the planet they would enter a new golden age for ork technology, potentially becoming unstoppable.So of course GW will never allow Armageddon to fall.
>>96967672small pps are cute, especially if they are pale and squishy and circumsized and maybe a little leaky.
>>96967636Never happened. Nice head cannon though.
>>96967672do women actually hate growers?
>>96967386Agreed.I'm the guy who has been bitching about wanting 30k automata rules for 40k for the last ten years.
>>96967702Link brother, or what to search.
>>96967702scribd is malware nigger
>>96967413You think ‘fights first’ is any better, big-brain?
Do you like the direction 40k’s aesthetic is going?
>>96967645a melta gun might as well be a melee weapon
>>96967648Based for releasing an uninteresting game that's been made a million times already, including themselves, with a small amount of content that is only supplemented with even smaller content for an unfair price over large periods of time
>>96967636There's this as an enhancement in the 10th edition Experimental Prototype Cadre. Maybe there will be a model in the future with actual laser swords.
>>96967510>American wants to make point>HEY FATASS BUY OUR BURGERS WHILE YOU’RE AT ITThe death of Net Neutrality has been a disaster for the human race.
>>96967636Fusion blades it was a Farsight Enclave thing
>>96967760>Marines across all parts of 40k have mostly only gotten worse designs>New ork heads look really badThose are the only big standouts visually to me
>>96967773>that's been made a million times alreadyit hasn't, vermintide was noteworthy and exploded in popularity because nobody had done a L4D clone yet and valve doesn't make games anymore, including all three tide games there are only like 10 L4Dlikes on the market
>>96967681I would but you guys hate Trench Crusade
>>96967773what kind of game do you wnat?
>>96967379It's pretty baffling that a boring piece of shit like titus got two models and a boardgame and GW never made minis for the Vermintide characters or a boardgame when they are ACTUAL characters that people like and want minis of
>>96967773name 10 games like darktide
>>96967681Assembled all this shit need to do a bunch of gap filling now and wait for a day warm enough to prime
>>96967825I love the nurgle strider things. People always make fun of them but I think they are kino.
>>96967825>plague hulk>toads>blightIs that from Chang? is it sturdy material?
>>96967825How well does sunscreen work as lube?
>>96967743Women hate all men, it's just a matter of which excuse they're using today
>>96967842The toads are printed, the rest of the resin stuff is from Z. Everything was fine but the plague hulk was hot garbage. The top half with the guy has shrunk so much from recasting that it doesn’t match up with the defiler parts that make up the bottom half. Also massive mold slips.The cast for Corbax is also crispy ass. Typical chinashit quality
>>96967948Not true, my mom loves me.
>>96967405Macragge is a Tau target
>>96967953Maccrage is not of particular importance to the Imperium.
>>96967810True, U5 are long over-due of any form of actual promotional merch. Be it Minis or figures. Instead they went all in on Darktide merchandising with action figures, expecting it to be the next big thing just for the game to flop.I guess luckily for GW, Space Marine 2 ended up being as popular as they wished.Ah well, maybe the U5 will get what they deserve if Games Workshop finally bites the bullet and ports them to AoS as an Underworlds set or something.
>>96967681I swear to god the colour difference isn’t as sharp in person. I don’t understand what’s going on with my camera or if my eyes are just shit.
>>96967950glad Z is still able to deliver. was worried about him. fuck GW moving on our based chinesium friends.
>>96967405Tyrannids target is anything with a pulse
>>96968023They're just like me fr.
>>96967951You'd be in the minority then
>>96967948shit i forgot about that
>>96967681Highlighting almost finished
>>96968067I’m incredibly happy to see paint on those guys finally.
>>96968067nice fur
>>96968037I'm sure your mother loves you too
>>96967969>ports them to AoSFuck that absolutely not, bringing fantasy shit into AoS just ruins fantasy and AoS. Its bad enough festus is back, for some fucking reason, instead of just giving us something new
>>96968023Yeah but there's nothing the tyrannids are specifically targeting that the Imperium values too much. If the Tyranids ate Kadaku the Imperium isn't going to care all that much.
>>96968087Especially with old world out now there's no reason for it, it's not like GW is actually doing anything with the game technically being in the past anyway just rerelease and remake all those characters for it
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>96967681Spent the last day or so stripping paint from that Eldar lot I got. Did all the infantry/characters last night and the Tanks/Wraithlord today. Also tried to salvage as many of the Dire Avengers as I could (Most of them are missing parts) but could only complete one Exarch minus the flags and 4 standard dues since the rest are missing the buttcapes. The real gem comes from the metal models, including a squad of Rangers (One missing a gun barrel), an Autarch, some old Gunner dudes (Three in the same pose), and a Rogue Trader Warlock. I went and printed up some 28mm slotta bases for them, probably gonna use one of the triplet gunners on the base of the Revenant Titan along with the lone Guardian Defender that was included in the lot for decoration.
>>96968096They were targeting Baal and Macragge a while back, but those events are basically finished.
>>96968118Baal and Maccrage aren't really that important to the Imperium either.
>>96968114they're gonna cover up even more skin and make them less sexy
>>96967562If you don’t eat your meat, you can’t have any pudding!
>>96968114Drukhari defresh is coming. I can feel it
Thanks for the gracious gift James
>>96967405Eldar pretend Necrons are their target but they haven't had any sort of real rivalry in years. Necrons casually obliterate Eldar whenever they meet.
I'll probably take a better picture tomorrow, but in case I die and go to hell, here's my collage entry
>>96967950I might pick up some etsy printed toads to use as beasts, a shame to hear about the hulk, I really liked that FW design, I hope we get a soul grinder refresh soon
>>96968076She thinks she does, but she doesn't
>>96968071Cheers but these aren't any of the older kitbashes I've done, I did this up last month, all my BGV and terminators are still languishing in my backlog lmao>>96968074Thanks anon!
>>96968096>the Imperium won’t care if the Tyranids consume a planet, growing their fleet and strength to threaten other planetsJesas anon do you think at all? Even if Kadaku is ultimately expendable, that’s exactly where you want to fight the Tyranids because you can pull out all the Exterminatus measures without pissing anyone off.
>>96968255Eh, every faction gets stronger when they take a planet, tyranids aren't unique in that regardd.
>>96968265>every faction gets stronger when they take a planetExcept Eldar.
>>96968322Sure they do. They need to mine all those raw materials to make Wraithbone.
>>96968333that's what the Squats...Votann are for
Started Orks and tried to do checkerboards
>>96967338FRENSHIP MATTERS!
Im new. Should I collect Nids or Necrons?I want a faceless, evil faction that gets beaten down by the good guys. Genuinely cannot explain it but I really like the idea of letting other peoples armies shine. I was born to be a Season One Villain.
>>96968449bugs
>>96968125Isn't Macragge the capital of Ultramar? Seems like it'd be kinda important
>>96968449NecronsYou'll be the weekly villain never actually dies, but has to help against the actually world ending villain that is Nids
>>96968449Nids are probably your best bet right now just in terms of money value. You can probably still find nid halves of the Leviathan box for a decent discount and they're also getting a Christmas box this year. That being said, Necrons are a lot easier for a new hobbyist to paint and while you likely won't get AS good a discount as Nids right now, you'll still be able to get find some good deals on them if you go looking.
>>96967510I can't believe SM2 was released almost 15 months ago what the fuck.
>>96968471>Seems like it'd be kinda importantIt's really not. Cadia was the only thing preventing the eye of terror from becoming the great rift.Armageddon is the only thing standing between Orks and invading Terra.Mars contains the Void Dragon.Terra itself has the Golden Throne.Vigilus is the only way to get from one side of the Imperium to the other now that the great rift is a thing.But Macragge? There's nothing particularly important about it. Guilliman likes it for sentimentality reasons, but if Macragge fell, the Imperium would scarcely notice.
>>96968512>ten space marine chapter homeworlds, including a fucking first founding one>several huge forge worlds>a shitton of well-managed industrial and mining worldsYeah, imperium will barely notice losing those, uh-huh.
>>96968532First off, I said Macragge, not all of Ultramar.But also there's thousands of forge worlds. The Imperium isn't gonna notice the disappearance of a few.
>>96968512>>96968537>t. based Ultra hater
>>96968569I don't hate the Ultramarines desu, but like...their actual planets? Not important. If Macragge fell, the Ultramarines could recruit from a new planet. There's nothing critically important about Ultramar itself.If Armageddon falls, it's an "OH SHIT PROTECT TERRA" moment. If Mars or Terra falls, everyone is fucked. If Vigilus falls, half the Imperium is fucked. When Cadia fell, shit got fucked beyond belief.But Ultramar? If Ultramar fell, the Imperium would be slightly worse off having lost .05% of its planets. But only slightly.
500 worlds has got me nervous because what if they refresh the chimera chasis and make it not cancer to build
>>96968449Nids, check out maleceptors and exocrins they're really cool
>>96967586I hate how they always push the gay knight baby carrier in the rules despite it being the ugliest thing ever so I have to look at it whenever I'm up against a gay knight playing even somewhat meta
>>96968589Ultramar is backup Terra. The realm is important for being the backup, well at least before it got half eaten.
>>96968620There is no 'backup terra', if Terra gets eaten the astronomicon goes out, and quite possibly another Chaos God is born with everything irrevocably completely 100% fucked beyond repair.
>>96968537nta but they will definitely notice a forge world under threat, they and the Mechanicus will fight tooth and nail to keep one and it gains the attention of the High Lords directly. Despite what the memes say the Imperium doesn't casually exterminatus planets. I think you're looking at planets like they can only have one trait and not the administrative impact losing a capital causes, that'd be like a country's capital along with all of its government staff getting annihilated at a stroke.Let's consider a more mundane example like an agri-world. Whatever, who cares. It gets vore'd by Tyranids. That planet might just be one of many but it's still a significant percentage of the food production for a sector. This causes a shortage in a system that barely breaks even when times are good, and times are never good. The lower supply causes a hike in price and forces densely populated planets to ration their supply. The economic shock and rationing breeds unrest, and impacts production efficiency as more resources must be allocated to over-working the remaining agri-worlds. A barely stable sector is now very unstable, an ideal environment for cults and separatists to gain power. Neighboring sectors do what they can but they have little to spare lest they risk their own. More security is forced inward, allowing raiders and invaders more chances to slip in. The magnitude of resources the Imperium must spend just to maintain order and solve the food supply shortage is immense, has to come from somewhere, and all of it takes time. Maybe worlds rebel, maybe the Tithe fails to yield adequate numbers due to malnutrition and leaves the sector even more vulnerable. That's how you get shit like the Sabbat Worlds. For want of a horseshoe.The Imperium treats its worlds like thousands of pawns on a chessboard because it has to, but that doesn't mean it does so flippantly. For the record I'm a Chaos enjoyer, Death to the False Emperor, etc.
>>96968643I don't know about that, I mean, if the Tau took a forge world they can't be that important to the Imperium.
>>96968591The Chimera chassis is fine to assemble though? The only vehicle that desperately needs a modern update is the Land Raider, the gaps/seams on that thing are disgusting.>Buy the Horus Heresy one!Nah, it's too small.
>>96968656Just because they get lost doesn't mean the Imperium doesn't care. Sometimes you have to eat an L no matter how bitter it is because you're just shit outa luck.
>>96968589>Imperium Stronghold on the Eastern Fringe of the galaxy loses their capital planet>not a big dealI feel like this is rage bait
In an autism beam clash between the most autistic warhammer fan and the most autistic star wars fan who gets disintegrated?
>>96968756It depends. Are we talking modern consoomer autism (i.e. Femstodes fan vs Disney Star Wars fan) or are we talking venerable neckbeardnought ancient autism (i.e. hates femstodes vs old school SW fan)
>>96968756I think the Star Wars autism takes this one because there's isn't a whole lot of Glup Shittos in 40k that have eighty thousand word wiki articles, especially when you consider Legends.
>>96968658I just think it (and the Leman Russ) could have a QoL sprue redoing. Like having better connections between the treads and the center. I think the Russ is the one I'm really bitching about, between the 40k one and the HH one, I'd rather build four HH ones than one 40k one but then it would clash with my army due to the solar auxilia symbols.
>>96968087Festus was a thing hinted in Aos for a while, with explicit hinting since rotmire creed was released. Same could be true for valkia. Chaos was a fundamental core of the setting so they tried embedding some old stuff into it from the get go while doing new things, this was all naturally done before old world was a thought, but either way the direction that both tow and Aos are going it wouldn’t hurt one or the other if Aos took some of the more high fantasy stuff from fb.
Has there been a job that Custodes haven't failed at?These are the ones that come to mind>fail keeping an eye on Lorgar which led to him falling to chaos>fail at capturing and bring back Magnus and letting Russ just go and kill him>fail at being the Emperor's body guards and letting Horus kill him>fail at keeping Terra xenos free by letting a God damn GSC take root
>>96967405>>96968150Alaitoc is doing stuff in the Pariah Nexus
>>96968667The thing is, Ultramar isn't close to anything important. It's not protecting Vigilus, or Terra, or even Armageddon. It's just kind of out there by itself.
>>96968814It's the recruiting grounds for the best space marine chapter.
>>96968792>I'd rather build four HH ones than one 40k one but then it would clash with my army due to the solar auxilia symbols.Then just don't use the Solar Auxilia symbols?
ive noticed that oil washes have been getting spammed quite a bit on social media lately, but the question is do you think they look good? seems like more effort desu; gloss varnish, and then wiping most of it off raised areas with a sponge or something similar
>>96968827They look just as good/better than acrylic washes with the benefit of being able to easily clean up mistakes
>>96968756star wars for sure
>>96968818Yes but they can use any planet for that. Ultramar itself is of little importance even if the Space Marines that recruit from it are valuable.
>>96968756I dunno but I hate them both.I think a warhammer "fan" will make it their identity which is worse. Then again I have not interacted with star wars fans past 2016.
>>96968827I like oils. They're great to work with because nothing you do has to be permanent. That said, they add a bunch of steps to the process that otherwise wouldn't be necessary
>>96968818We're not talking about Baal though?
>>96968827It depends, just like any other painting technique. Oil washes and oil-based paints over acrylic for shading and weathering have been used in regular scale modeling for a long time. I think its just that most people are always trying to find The One Technique that will magically speed up their painting tenfold, so if you focus on that kind of thing if you're a slop dispenser you'll get more engagement.
>>96968814>The border of the Imperium on the Eastern Fringe isn’t importantI feel like you’re being willfully obtuse here
>>96968512Every time I see a description of Macragge, it's the author jerking Gillymun off for being the best and most noble and most moral administrator the Imperium has ever seen, as if nobody could possibly manage planetary administration until a fucking Primarch came along.
>>96968827reductive enamel washes can achieve effects that are very difficult to do with acrylics and are imo worth the extra effort. i think they look pretty good but a lotta people misuse them by just dumping streaking grime over a model
>>96968868That's precisely WHY it's not important. Fringe worlds generally aren't that critical. It's why the Tau were able to grow from 1 planet to 300 planets without the Imperium really noticing or caring.
I miss Captain Tycho
>>96968756ENTER
>>96968883Star Trek autism has cooled down significantly.
>>96968883I don't think Trek autists can power up to the same level as SW autists, they are constrained by their setting as much as they are empowered by it. Star Trek has a rigidity to it that SW lacks, SW's only rules are that the Force is magic and everything else is the whim of the writer.
>>96968512we need a subfaction for ultramar's 40k auxilano proxying 30k isn't enough
>>96968883Nobody has cared about star trek in almost 20 years
>>96968883trekies haven't been bad in a long timei think after 20 years of subpar content they've really been fatiguedstar wars fanboys are getting there
Every time I play a game of 10th Im bored by the bland rules. Any hopes this will change with 11th?
>>96968895We do have a subfaction for Ultramar's Auxilia, they're called THE IMPERIAL GUARD
>>96968892Trek autism used to be strong in the 60's, in fact it was one of the original tism fandoms alongside LotR. It's just when your heyday is the very first slash fics in the 70's and various conventions thereafter, it's nothing compared to the autism of prequel apologist Star Wars fans or Sequel trilogy essay writers.
>>96968905>Imperial Guard will be replaced with Ultramar space roman legions and Dark Imperium space Bretonnia led by the Lion
>>96968636Nah, the Tau would still win if Terra is gone. Chaos is a joke.
>>96968906Agreed. It was not the first, but it is a powerful force that set the stage for all that followed. To use the standard scale of power level measuring, I recon it's the Vegeta arrives on Earth of 'tism events.
>>96968883All the properly autistic trekkies died from an anger-induced aneurysm ages ago.
>>96968905which guard regiment?
>>96968928The Ultramar Auxilia
>>96968922Chaos is literally the only faction that ever gets any significant wins over the Imperium. Sure, sometimes Necrons or Tyranids or Tau win, but when they do, they only lose planets or space marine chapters the Imperium doesn't care about.
>>96968931thats what i want it'll be so funny if we get that for 11th over catachan refresh
>>96968909>IG getting replaced with anythingan absolute win
>no one wants to talk about captain tycho>everyone wants to talk about star trekI'm getting my 8th edition codex. You guys are gonna learn some Tycho lore.
>>96968959If that were to happen, the dichotomy between laughter and despair would kill me.
>>96968878And if the Tau Empire wants to take more territory, they will run into Ultramar, because Ultramar is on the Imperium’s border on the Eastern Fringe. This makes Ultramar an important place, as other threats coming in from the Eastern Fringe on that half of the galaxy will have to do the same.
How does /tg/ feel about female space marines?
>>96968965If you want to start discussion, you have to posit a question or statement, otherwise there is no prompt for a reply of any significance.
>>96968972Literally nobody wants them.
>>96968964Go fuck yourself.
>>96968972Female space marines destroys the identity of both Space Marines and Sisters of Battle.Just give Sisters of Battle a buff in lore and call it a day. They're already the female counterpart of Space Marines, both the nuns to their monks as well as the females in power armor with bolters.
>>96968943yes, chaos wins over the imperium, but not anyone else. thats my point.humans are just too weak
>>96968972Fuckoff namefag
>>96968992Sorry that your literal NPC faction is the worst part of the entire setting :(
>>96968972I think they are cool, but not nearly enough is written or illustrated regarding how unnerving, and sometimes terrifying, it is to be in a situation with someone who has such an ruthlessly ardent religious faith.
what faction lets me spam plasma guns
>>96969052dark angels? Admech?
>>9696905230 Hellblasters seem like a lot. If you go Dark Angels you can give Terminators plasma too.
>>96968969>This makes Ultramar an important place, as other threats coming in from the Eastern Fringe on that half of the galaxy will have to do the same.Sure but...what is it protecting?Yeah it's protecting 'general territory' but there's nothing critical over there. There's no single planet that splits the Imperium in half if it gets taken. There's no super-important artifact necessary for all FTL.Even if all 500 worlds of Ultramar were to fall, the Imperium would only have lost 1/20000th of its territory.
>>96967338>They killed Chairon offscreen>In a hopeless sacrifice that also took the captain and a bunch of marines Nice. Proper grimdark that is.
>>96968905Ultramarines unique units being their auxilia would be actually cool desu
>>96968972is that peg bundy?
>>96969093Was Chairon based on Ving Rhames?
>>96969092It’s protecting the rest of the Imperium from threats coming from the Eastern Fringe, that’s what a border stronghold does. The rest of the Imperium becomes more vulnerable if it wasn’t there.
>>96969093>Secondaries online are mad saying he should of died in another secret level animation (read VERY EXPENSIVE) or in another game
>>96969125none of that is happening
>>96969125>joke that named space marines who take their helmets off have mega plot armor>be surprised that they die in a footnote without having a 12-book series and two games about it
What if instead of being some fatass blob thing, Nurgle was a cute chubby demon chick who wore diapers? I'd join Chaos too ngl.
>>96969145That's because you're a freak
>>96969125if it wasn't for the fact that titus got named the new big dick of the second company so abruptly, and that the entire ordeal seems so fucking forced, I would agree with you, but none of this sits right with me and I dont like it. But I already hate marines, let alone ultramarines, so I dont really care. Just give me traitor guard. Its fucked up how Ultramarine's are more likely to get human auxiliaries before traitor guard becomes a fully fleshed out army.
>>96968589>>96968620>>96968636Not sure if this person is being sincere or not or just lacks a broader understanding of the themes this setting explores. Ultramar is important precisely because it isn't Terra or any other "critical" location in the Imperium. It's important because it is the spiritual home of Humanity, the relocation of the kind of Human experience that represented the culture that created the Men of Gold. Terra is consumed by it's purpose unable to foster any sort of real "Humanity". Malcador waged an entire cold war to make sure that "Humanity" survived in this kind of capacity. If you absolutely must use real world analogs Terra would be the UK and Ultramar would be America. >>96969093>Chairon was a 10,000 year old Cawl super secret project btwJames really knows how to leave a shiner.

>>96969166I use tamiya panel liner over an airbrushed layer of polyurethane gloss varnish, flows into recesses to minimize cleanup needed and gives really nice hard lines, might not be the style you're looking for though
>>96969172Ok time for bed Demon
>>96969161That sounds dumb. The same Imperium that sends child soldiers into the arms off the enemy wearing suicide vests, will lobotomize mothers for stealing a loaf of bread and turn them into servitors, has industrial baby furnaces, and will gladly sacrifice hundreds of billions of Guardsmen on an unimportant frontline just to slow some minor unheard of alien species down.....is concerned with saving the 'spiritual home' and culture of humanity?

>>96969166I like cheap winsor newton craft store oils and white spirits. I do all my basecoats, maybe a drybrush for vehicles and heavy chipping, then lock everything down with gloss. Then go in with thinned oils into all the recesses and let them set for an hour or two. Then go in with a cotton swab and some white spirits and tidy up any weird spots, and also do any streaking you'd like while you're working on it. Once you're happy just lock it down with gloss, then over than with matte. Pic related is before and after oils
>>96969271And then he makes human mistakes and has human flaws and then onlookers complain that he doesn't act enough like an omnipotent god.
>>96969271>Also, I need to personally authorize and fortify every single individual human psyker in an empire of nearly half a quadrillion people.>an empire of nearly half a quadrillion people.Theres at least 2 quadrillion people on Terra alone.Also the Emperor logic was that normal people would think like this>I am not a god despite golden aura and being large>This makes sense as there are no gods so any resemblence to our ideas of a god is concidence or a manipulation of the god botherers to get them to follow>literal demons from hell The Warp is not hell, and daemons are not demons. All life goes to the warp and daemons are just manifestations of the most common emoitional feelings of the dead. There was no Heaven with angels that turned aganist god that became demonsFuck off secondary

>>96969347>Doakes.jpg
Seriously what the fuck is going on with the "story" in 40k?It feels like ever since they revived the Lion the plotline because completely unhinged from whatever it was at the beginning on 8th.>indomitus crusade retconned from 112 years to just 12>suddenly, Vigilus is the next big thing. >whoops, it's actually the pariah nexus>Dante's entire imperium nihilus plotline is abandoned in favour of the Lion taking the spotlight >Lion immediately gets sidelined >no, wait, it's actually the Tyranids >meanwhile they release a prequel book series that culminates in them fighting the necrons
>>96969357Who cares, I just read up on the little bits of fluff I like.
>>96969357James is frantically looking for something that sticks.
>>96969357The story is nothing more than excuses for your dudes to fight some other dudes using official Games Workshop miniatures. Narrative coherency limits things too much. It has to be brief and confusing.
>>96969369As a Newfag even, to me that is personally unacceptable. The franchise is too valuable and too many people are invested in the story for it to be treated like this.
>>96969381>As a NewfagYou're the problem.
>>96969357Narrative inconsistency is just kind of normal from a meta standpoint, it's just whatever dudes are fighting whichever other dudes at the current moment. The real headscratcher is why shrink the length of Indomitus to 1/10th? Was that necessary?
>>96969357The story is just a medium to sell toys
I really want a squad of 2nd ed stormboyz. The odds of GW doing a made to order thing for them like the kommandos are pretty low but not zero right?
>>96969357It reflects high up admin cleakers being made of new threats to fight and wars on worlds that need manpower and whose fighting where that need more support. Really the story should be 10 times more hectic than it really is. Orks WAAGH previously undetected attacking somewhere, a very scary dark eldar raid on a planet with loads of pull so its treated as a bigger threat than a whole hive fleet because corruption and birbery is that bad, etc
>>96969404Your best bet is finding a recaster, there are a few that do metal casts but they generally have more limited catalogues.Maybe ask the subreddit
>>96969395How so?
what colour lasers for las weapons?
>>96968756>>96968771Squad Broken would kill a post-Disney senpai outright but a Wookiepedia contributor would be able to out-'tism any WH fan except MAYBE the black lion guy.
>>96969357I don't even know what happened since Lion came back.The tyranids appeared at the beginning of 10th, they had a poll who will win some battle (and get their models revealed first) and iirc tyranids won but I don't think anything came out of that.Then nothing happened for an entire edition and now Titus is fighting crons or something but you're saying that's a prequel?
>>96969357Because a coherent narrative would make the end-of-edition campaign less marketable or some shit.
Can we get some Tank posting in this bitch? I swear I only see me and the Choas dudes sick lookin tank.
>>96969357>GW's narrative leader is a retard with daddy issues and muscle mommy fetish>wondering wtf is happened
>>96969502>That is how I learn ADB is the narrative leader of GW
>>96969510>>96969502You're going to get Serena Williams as the Return of Russ and you're going to like it and btw it's MA'AM.
>>96969457They had a big focus on fighting the necrons in 9th ed in the pariah nexus but it got sidelined by the Lion returning. Then the Tyranids were the next big thing but that went nowhere and the focus is now apparently on necrons again since the end of the dawn of fire series. All of this shit actually preceded the plague wars in 8th edition which also didn't get resolved.So now Titus has to liberate ultramar, which doesn't matter because it will get fucked up by mortarion just a few years later.Vigilus and Dante's regent plotline is completely dead in the water, which is weird since at some point it seemed that they were going to do a parallel to the imperium secundus thing with Dante, Guiliman and Lion at some point IIRC
>>9696935740k is a setting not a story and treating it like a story is a cause of 90% of its problems (primarchwank, characterwank etc)
>>96969398So then shouldn't there be more effort put into making a storyline that isn't all over the place? One that makes it feel like you've made a good "investment" by buying 40k minis and makes you want to buy more?Wouldn't a non-cluster fucked, more coherent story do more for attracting new players to purchasing said toys?
>>96969517Cont.My theory is that they overcompensated for the negative reaction to some elements of 8th edition and took a different designer philosophy with marines(which is how we got bladeguards, the SW upgrades and the Templar upgrades), you can still see the "old" 8th designs in the dogshit BA refresh.The dark imperium series was pushed out in 8th to flesh out the new setting but they then inexplicably decided to do a prequel series with dawn of fire(why not just do dawn of fire first?) but dawn of fire sets up this massive conflict with szarekh which is completely ignored by the previous Dark imperium books.>>96969531That's exactly my criticism. They are trying to create some kind of narrative which goes against the nature of the setting and are making it even more incoherent as a result
Wrack No.25 is ready, just 5 more left.I will take short brake from painting Wracks and I will focuse now on the Haemonculi and maybe Grotesques.
>>96967681>Post what you're working oni think im done other than one or two touch ups around the helmets
why are rhinos more prestigious than chimeras in the lore when chimeras are the superior vehicle
Is there even anything of value to the Imperium in the Imperium Nihilus?
>>96968959 After Catachans, I wondered what the next regiment to get a release would be between Vostroyans and Mordians, but I think Mordians are fucked, their niche of being the fancy orderly regiment with blue uniforms is gone
>>96969554Because GW couldn't let space marines ride in cheap metal boxes, so they had to make excuses why the crude exploration vehicle is ackhually super advanced and way too advanced for the Imperial Guard. Also, because each army has to have their own model line, otherwise the bean counters cry.
I feel like the december collage theme is gonna end up being "something festive/christmasy" but maybe we should have seasonal stuff like that as a subtheme for bonus points those months instead? Like let's say mounted unit/bikers win but you're encouraged to give it a festive spin if you want etc
>>96969457Right now the most recent lore event has been the Imperium's second go at taking down the Pariah Nexus, which also coincides with a Necron civil war between the Silent King and Imotekh. Last we heard, Vashtorr showed up to fuck with everyone with the weapon he got from the Arks of Omen stuff. The next Cawl novel is probably our best bet in actually advancing that story line
>>96969446>except MAYBE the black lion guyBlack Lion Guy is like entry level SW autist. Need I remind you of the Mandalorian Purist who draws nothing but "true Mandalorians" mutilating Dave Filoni and his Filoniverse characters?
>>96969537It really comes down to GW fucking up by initially having the Indomitus Crusade end after 112 years and having that be the new present status quo, but then realizing it'd be stupid to just skip the Indomitus Crusade, so they retconned it so the new status quo is merely 12 years after Gathering Storm. This fucks everything up, and Dawn of Fire was a big victim of it
I just subscribed to Valrak AMA

Taking the tiny disjointed parts of the lore and making something cool out of it. I think the more room for people to make cool stuff the better.
>>96969598Working on my 3rd edition raptors. Basecoats are just about done.
>>96969598what is the collage theme for this month?
>>96969604rumour vids are fine, the annoying things are the Space Marine 2 videos.>brand new armour!>brand new class!>datamined new bolter!
Probably a stupid question, but what do people do for robes etc for their dark angels now, there's very little i can see in the newer range (Im picking the hobby back up after quitting in 2012)Also any good recommendations for paint shelves/racks, I have a mix of Vallejo bottles and citadel.Pic is first paint job since 2012. Needs improvement
>>96969702The problem with GW's current method is it's the worst of both worlds. The narratives are spastic and bounce from front to front, but at the same time it stars the same central cast with a stable, rotating gallery of guest stars. Every now and then someone new pops up like the Necron Ur-Destroyer or the Tau Twinstars or DA's Lion, but they're either forgotten just as quickly or linger around like bad fart playing second fiddle to the faction's TRVE protagonist. Funnily enough, Titus is almost a breath of freah air in contrast to how the last few narrative campaogns have been handled. He's just a normal marine doing normal marine things on a mundane, impossible battlefront while Guilliman fucks off to eo big protagonist things
>>96969775Flyers/jump pack

>>96969780>stabilizing the Ultramarian 500 worlds empire>just normal marine things
>>96969780Where actually IS Gulliman at right now in the current end of the timeline? Pariah Nexus was set back a while before Dark Imperium. And he's obviously not in Ultramar now.
>>96969777The annoying thing is having to fucking listen to that fat fuck spit out of his fucking gob for any longer than a breaths worth of your time.
>>96969779Greenstuff, there are also a fuckton of bits sellers on Etsy
>>96969786>do what you've been attempting to do for 10K years (reclaim worlds for the Imperium)>except, you know, do betterYeah, it's pretty normal marine things all things considered. Just with a fancy label and a little more direction in which worlds to retake.
>>96969779>Also any good recommendations for paint shelves/racksa spice rack

>>96969845This is a test for 11th. It is the special characters edition, no more your guys
Man, whatever I used to prime my metal tau figs 20 years ago just absolutely refuses to let go. First trip through the sonic cleaner and scrub only got maybe 40% of shit off at most. Now it's going through a second cycle.
>>96969932It's already been like that since 8th.
>>96969937Taking from warmahordes then
>>96969932so 11th is going to be even worse than 10th, huh?
>>969699378th had quite decent <your dudes> rules, no?
>>96969937Nope they were encouraged, your rules didn't depend on you having a special character. Look at the new detachments, all need you to buy the <new named character> to be able to use it. Now will be required.In the end of 9th GW tested removing special weapon costs and everyone clapped and then, no more weapon costs in 10th.>>96969941You bet
I'm listening to the Vahl audiobook and two characters are a night lord and a sister of battle saint who were brother and sister somehow despite the brides of the emperor not existing when the night lords were recruiting let alone the sisters of battledid he join the night lords way later? am i thinking about this too hard?it might get explained later in the book but im just confused
>>96969939I've made this observation before. >entire army revolves around one or more special characters>figs have gone from customisable multi part to extremely monopose>command points, stratagems and MTG combosBasically everything that GW fanboys said was bad about Warmahordes back in the day now defines 40k. A pity they also did it extremely badly so it's not anywhere near as good as Warmahordes rules.
>>96969842Next time don't pick an NPC chapter, loser
>>96969842>Tactical, Devs and Assault marines are now just strategem/detachment bullshit
>>96969963You can even see the warmahordes mentality of terrain being something that's unimportant aesthetically creeping in too as of the late
>>96969974Deserved
>>96969941It's not like I am still playing 10th edition.

>>96969183It's possible your impression of the setting is grossly flanderized and not particularly useful.
>>96970000I'm going to be honest with you anon I don't see the thigh thing at all. It just looks like regular animal proportions
>>96970058 Its cause you arent a furry Its mainly the post with a leg on top of tactical rockIts the most visible thigh we had since the AoS Khorne priest
>>96970076>Its cause you arent a furryAh that checks out since someone with severely burned out dopamine receptors probably sees things in a different manner
I have a question:I have a unit led by a character with a "stand back up on 2+ at the end of phase" rule, for example custodes terminator captain.The unit is in combat with a vehicle, let's say a knight.In the opponent's shooting phase the vehicle shoots into combat and I decide to tank the damage on the captain, who dies. I roll a 2+ and he respawns outside of engagement range at the end of the phase.Am I correct in assuming that he comes back as part of the unit he originally led and piles in/fights like normal in the opponent's fight phase? Or is he now a separate unit?
>>96970088>I decide to tank the damage on the captainYou can't do this, nimrod. Read the rules for leaders on page 39 of the rulebook.
>>96969842Good. Give that rule a little weaker to to normal captains then its perfect. I would even change it to calgar not needing to switch a doctrin at all and keep it active untill chosen otherwise.
>>96970088You can't tank it on the captain, you gotta assign the wounds to the bodyguard unit first. If the leader gets sniped out by precision though, then he returns attached to his bodyguard unit as per the rules commentary.
Gsc killed 2 named Ultramarines who didn't wear helmets.Does this make them the strongest faction?
>>96970110Why do you autismo's yap so much about helmets. Their deaths had nothing to do with helmets.
>>96970099>>96970108Well, there goes my funny combo idea.Thank you.
>>96969959Its gw employes the most subhuman retarded writers they can find. Its all shit and you can throw it in to the trash. Shit writing by amoron with no skill.
>>96970110Only counts if they kill a character with a model. Named characters in books die all the time.

>>96970111helmet autism is so fucking stupid. i dont think i put a single helmet on any of the space wolves ive built and only about half of the black templars and dark angels. the new GW space marine face sculpts are all really good, and it adds a ton of character to the models, and slapping helmets on everybody sucks the personality out of the armyif we were here for realism we wouldnt have knights with swords and axes running headlong into dinosaur bugs and egyptian robots. rule of cool always wins
>>96970128thank you, taco boy
Take a detachment from your army and a named character from your army. What special rule would you staple to that detachment or modify to make it that character's personal subfaction when they are leading it?
>>96970133>doesn't use helmetsSnowflake alert! Snowflake alert!
>>96970139I'm so disinterested in named characters I don't even know which ones are available to me
>>96970155Found the GSC player
>>96970133The faggots who bitch about other peoples models not having helmets are faggots but there's nothing wrong with building your dudes with all helmets since they can be pretty cool
>>96970139Belisarius Cawl. Any detachment.While Cawl is in your army, pick one unit each turn to be your Oath of Moment. Units in your army can reroll hit rolls against your Oath target.
>>96970139>Hermiatus the second son>Outlander ClawWhenever Hermiatus is on the battlefield, decrease the damage on mounted and vehicle units within 6 of this model by one and all vehicle units have an invulnerable +5 save. If Hermiatus is embarked in a vehicle, that vehicle gains this ability.
>>96970167lol
>>96970139As in a homebrew named character or a official one?
I dont know how everyone paints their metallics so well, mine always come out looking like shit. Its almost like the metallic paint is too thick or something, even with the vallejo airbrush metallics i still manage to fuck that up. Maybe its just not for me
Here is the statline of the GIGA CALGAR deathstar.10 modelsGravis Calgar6 Vitctrix GuardVictrix ChampionVictrix AncientCato SicariusThis 10 man squad has 4 epic heroes. The standard statline is T4, 2+ 4++ with 4w. In addition, the blob has the following special rules-1 to Wound (forever)4+++ on CalgarFall Back/Advance and Shoot/ChargeFree Heroic Intervention6 inch reactive move (There is an additional strat for a second)Bloodsurge on model deathUnit wide +1 Attack and Strength that works on All modelsAverage is 5 attacks ws2 s5 ap2 d2. Of course, the characters have twinlinked and hit harder.As this blob is all Tacticus and Gravis, Uriel can give it deep strike. In cover(one model out of LoS) this saves AP 2 on a 2+ and Ap3 on a 3+ thanks to AoC spam.What does your army do to GIGA CALGAR?You cannot tarpit him as the squad will kill any chaff. You cannot move near him as he will reactive, perhaps twice. If you shoot they have high AP, and -1 to wound, and will then charge you during your turn.Angron on average kills less than 3 Victrix with Strike and less than 2 with Sweep.
>>96970200>marine slop
man how the hell we have two new tyranid prime models and still no warrior refresh? what the hell are they doing?
>>96970139Cypher CSM Detachment The FallenChosen are battleline.At end of opponent's turn pick 1/2/3 (based on game points) units and put them into reserve.
>>96970200deep strike 20 neos with lethalsno reactive as I didn't move, don't care about -1 to wound beause I'm relying on lethals, don't care about broodsurge or reactive as I'll wipe it in one go. it ignores cover and has AP1 because of detach and ridgerunners, so you save on 3s still.Get Acheron'd
>>96970219Same reason that we were stuck with wings and scything claws for years despite having no flying units worth attaching to
>Eldar get new book for the first time in years>It's a good book with many people saying it's made them interested in Eldar>Eldarfags are somehow furious over this and try to disavowWhat the fuck is wrong with them? Shouldn't they be happy about this?
>>96970185Either. It's just wish listing for fun.
>>96970238Are these people who said it's made them interested in Eldar in the room with us now?
>>96970200>Deploying [Infantry]You fool
any ultramarine tabletop players itt ? i tried playing my first game vs chaos daemons and it felt so hopeless to see them go on a hot streak with the invuln rolls whenever i rolled big damage....how am i supposed to play a more balanced army vs armies that want to get close and dominate the fight phase ?
>>96970238Who is saying it's a good book if the elder fags are disavowing it? Try to get your story straight first.
>>96970200Land raider redeemer with Vulkan’s buff. Dev wounds if it’s turn 2 since I’ll have been saving up for it. Have fun eating 2d6+6 s7 d2 ap-2 with reroll wounds, plus a MM, assault cannon, and HK because fuck it. Add in whatever is riding in the land raider just to be sure. 6 bladeguard and adrax or a Judiciar should do the job.Deathstars are overhyped.
>>96970248>he plays special characterscringe
>>96970229Being set up from deep strike counts as having made a normal move.
>>96970139Asdrubael Vect. Realspace Raid.While you have 5 or more pain tokens, your army has advance and shoot and charge.While you have 10 or more pain tokens, your army has a 6+ FNP.While you have 15 or more pain tokens, your army has an extra attack on all melee weapons.
>>96970277>xe doesn't use named characters gay and cringe
>>96970277Bro look at the post it was in response toEven then I could opt for a Mantle Of Wisdom Autarch with a Star Glaive to lead the Banshee squad instead, and probably do even better.
>>96970283yes, but it does not trigger reactive moves, you count as having made a move, so don't have heavy and can't move again, but you didn't do a move so there's no trigger
>>96970277>He doesn't think his jen characters are specialYou can do it, homebrew anon. I believe in you!
>>96970263Ah I was looking for pics from your game, I'm sorry it didn't go so well but I'm hopeful for the next one. I hope you still had some fun!I hope you got to see the Canoness, still waiting on the little namething to go on the base
>>96970200Is this worth 470 points?
>>96970298i did ty!
>>96970305It's just asking to get nuked by oath of moment or similar debuff targeting from other factions.
>>96970277>he plays special characters>>96970200>Gravis Calgar>Cato Sicarius
>>96967681Ok, one final adjustment. I wasn't particularly thrilled with how dark she looked on the table so I went back for one final pass of highlights. Now I'm done.
>>96970292A 10-woman squad of Banshees even with an Autarch will kill like 2 Victrix tops then immediately get eviscerated by the fight back. You just waste 300+ points to get a squad destroyed and make yourself look stupid.
>>96970331Amazing work, anon.
>>96970342Did you do the math? They hit on 2s rerolling 1, wound on 3s rerolling 1s ap2 2dmg, they ignore -1 to wound due to anti. I don't think they clear the entire calgar squad but they should get rid of victrix on average.
>>96970331butter
>>96967681Not really a mini, but I've been working on my lightbox.Following TSanon's lightbox advice yesterday, I couldnt do it as clean as crisp as him with a white background.I guess I'm doing something wrong, but I'll just go back to my black background. Maybe find a black paper to have it more matte and not reflect as much light.But it was worth the try.
>>96970268>>96970268That land raider on average with Oath giving +1 to wound kills 2 Macraggots(3 if the HK highrolls) when they use AoC. As punishment for getting close, the Macraggot squad gets d6+12 inches of movement to run away and bloodsurge into a different unit, avoiding the Judiciar squad.
>>96970200I"ok bet Lelith +10 Wyches in Spectacle could do pretty well into this for half the points.
>>96970372Yes. The Banshees still only force a 4+ save on the Victrix and it takes two unsaved attacks to kill one Marine. 24 wounds of Marines means they need 12 attacks to go through just to clear the bodyguard, and they only have 18 to work with. Even if we're generous and say that all of the Hits and Wounds are successful, the Save still cuts half of those out, leaving 9 unsaved attacks for 18 damage meaning two Victrix survive. This makes it impossible for the Exarch to swing at Cato or Calgar, as she only gets 3 attacks with the Executioner at 3 damage a hit. This does go to a 5+ save, but even then this means ideally 1/3 attacks will be saved if all three land and wound. This kills one of the remaining Victrix and leaves the remaining one with 1 wound left.Importantly, this means the Autarch is wounding on 4+. With 4 attacks at 3 damage a piece, it's impossible for the Autarch to clear the Victrix, Cato, and Calgar all together. Considering the Wound roll now cuts the attacks in half, we have two attacks going in. Even if we're lenient and say the Victrix dies, Cato isn't going down even if the attack goes through, and Calgar is going to remain untouched. Meanwhile Cato has a 9-attack Sweep profile and Calgar has six attacks that are 2+ to Wound, and every unsaved attack is a dead Banshee.
>>96970414Forgot to summarize; so if we are EXTREMELY lenient and say that every single attack from the Banshee squad hits and wounds, they at best are only going to manage to kill the honor guard.
>>96970372Sadly the Banshees will only kill an average of 2.5 solo. Jain will pick a couple off but she'll fucking explode on the clap back.
>Stealth Suits now required 5 Man squadsNo James, I will not be buying your new KT Box.
>>96967681Old pic of my Night Lord terminators
>>96970372Banshees are pretty much designed to kill basic Marines and nothing else. Trying to toss them at a Terminator or Bladeguard squad is just going to get them mulched.
>>96969496How many of these do you actually use in games?
>>96968756The Legends wookiepedia of Anakin is bigger than the real life wikipedia biographies of several historical figures.
>>96970200Ghaz + BM + 20 boyz Clears in the waaagh in warhorde easily if all the boyz make it into melee
>>96970505Ick. I have 9 of them. Guess I’m kitbashing an xv15 out of a fire warrior to bring me up to size.
The one melee deathstar that does it is Incubi with an Archon in Cartel.31 attacks hitting on 2s critting on 5s with Sustained.You get ~7.5 to 8devwounds, spend 2 aspect tokens for 10 devwounds which kills 5 blueberries. Regular wounds get 5 past AoC which kills 2 and a half more for 7 and a half dead blueberries.Agonizer will scum 7 mortals so they'd kill literally everything but Calgar.
>>96970640Just use an empty base and say its stealthed.Also not sure if they're even worth taking anymore. They got more expensive, no more support systems, and forced 5s I think.Shit sucks. 11e is going to go from trainwreck to nuclear bomb at this rate.

>>96970672Ew why is he naked
>>96970672People who paint this well are not to be trusted.
>>96970645Isn't Drazhar a better leader than Archon for incubi now that they don't reroll wounds? +1 to wound is still very good.
>>96970722Depends on detachment. rerolling hits to fish for 5+ sustained has infinitely more value than +1 to wound.
