Do you make your doors functional?
What is your favourite character or plot development in the lore?
>>96999701>Do you paint vehicle interiors? No>Do you make your doors functional?Sometimes
I will NOT buy any boxes until 11th edish launch box
I added so much work to my repex leaving one of the doors open with a marine perched inside. Never again.
>>96999725You starting with the Space Marines or Dark Eldar?
I like this idea of putting posters minis in the op a lot but I can't shake the feeling it will not end well
On today's episode of "Shit I shouldn't bother doing but I can't help myself": I put magnets on my tank rear doors so they will stay closed. They were only not staying closed because I was fitting a 30k door on a 40k body by mistake.What are you working on /40kg/? Post models and wips.
>>96999740dark eldar will never be a launch box.
>>96999757They already were
>>96999740>>96999757this it will be anything but DE
>>96999701>TQNot really. But I did paint this part of the chicken plane, mostly because it's quite visible though.
>>96999757They already were. Next edition will be edition of xenos.
>TQIt's only worth it if you're leaving part of it unglued to be able to see inside, and that makes handling the model more annoying so I never bother
>>96999765500 Worlds says otherwise
Starter sets without SM will never happen again, so my money is on Grey Knights vs Chaos/Darkmech
>>96999777I doubt they would put any kind of chapter/subfaction specific models in a starter, regular marines are far more versatile and broadly appealing
>>96999773500 Worlds will have as much impact on the 11e starter as Arks of Omen did on the 10e one.
>almost pulled trigger on Krieg Battleforce>held back because mediocre deal and little points for $$$>TOW marauder box up for pre order next week with incredible discount and models I unironically feel like I dodged a bullet. I almost bought the siege platoon. Almost.
>Bones threadgun to your head, would you rather be a Tomb King noble or Necron noble?
Let Chaos idols take this thread!
>>96999803graduate yourself now
It's unfortunate that the EC codex was written for 10e since codices this edition don't have big fancy timeline sections full of random things.
Can someone explain why all admech are ok with studying necron technology, isn't that forbidden? Just because its similar to dark age technology doesn't mean it's the same.
>>96999827Necrons sell well and need to interact with the imperium heavily.
Reposting from previous thread(s).Trying to figure out which gw/third party transfer sheet this thinner-than-usual red DA decal could have come from.
>>96999827because admech is a caricature of Religion and by design hypocrites
>>96999797A soul mason.
>>96999827Why would it be forbidden to study your enemy to be better at countering and destroying them? Now, using their tech is another thing.
>>96999777>>96999784The starter box will be Alpha Legion vs. Ultramarines containing new ultramarine models, while Alpha Legion will be released with a new generic CSM sniper/infiltrator squadron for Kill Team, that one black guy named character with the Alpha Legion keyword and then a generic master infiltrator. The Alpha Legion will also bring with it a special detachment for Traitor Guard, as Alpha Legion makes usage of extensive traitor guard, this is in tandem with GW splitting Kill Team Blooded into two kits and doubling the price, making it viable to have a leman russ, traitor marines and traitor enforcer as your army.
>>96999797Tomb Kings were always the superior application of the concept.
>>96999796Those models look like a pain to paint. Also they’re not kurgan inspired so it’s automatically dogshit in my book.
>>96999797Necron noble, it's significantly easier to convince miserable humans in the Imperium to become my subjects than it would be to convince most people in the Fantasy world.
>>96999850They are mostly furs and leather. Really easy stuff to paint if you want to get lazy and contrast it. As for aesthetics…you’re entitled to your incorrect opinion. They look amazing.
>>96999877yeah these are some of the best fantasy sculpts GW has put out in years
>big meks can't lead flash gitz>flash gitz are the one ork shootin' unit I actually got beforehandI'm starting to think Dread Mob is a pyramid scheme.
>>96999914I fucking hate how characters work now. We need to go back to character being more than buff pieces for specific units and back to them being characters who can join whoever they desire.
>>96999796>I was almost a faggot but I decided to be bicurious instead
>>96999850They’re specifically Norsca, Kurgan Marauders are the retro models.
>>96999797>be free vs be slave to star vampireNu-crons lore is shit.
>>96999932>tomb kings>freelol>still thinks necrons are slaved to ctanlmao
>>96999701what is the skull head on the left
>>96999914Dread mob is the "make the Stompa killy" detachment.
>>96999931I personally like the Norscans more. I know Kurgans are closer to the Great Bastion/Cathay so it isn't as cold, but I really like that the Norscans are covered up in pelts and furs and look like they come from a frozen shithole.
>>96999945Looks like the Execrator, a Black Templar specific Chaplain variant.
>>96999701>TQYes, no. Respectively.
>>96999961They have a guy whose job description is to poop?
>>96999975>hints and clueskindly elaborate
>>96999877>look at how much shit they have>ropes, bones, heads, chains, links, horse socks, rags, talismans ectThis gonna be a nightmare to build/convert isnt it?
>>96999989and an absolute nightmare to paint, too
>>96999989>build Should be fine. The only bad new kit from TOW is the Cathay sentinel, that’s a hard build. Otherwise everything else is standard so idk why this one should be bad to build. >>96999995It can be as easy or difficult as you make it. Contrast and dry brushing takes care of 95% of the model if you want to go fast.
>>96999701>Post yfw when you fail a roll and spend a CP to reroll and fail the roll again
>>96999986It's bait.
>>96999945Kromlech seraphim knights, according to whoever posted pic rel some time agochaplains are based, I need to save more chaplains, post chaplains
>>96999833Done a bit of looking into this and i have two leadsone is this image (was a pdf but cant upload those anymore lol) of "great crusade" era transfers for dark angels which could easily be printed on transfer paper at home. They appear to match perfectly https://bolterandchainsword.com/files/file/117-dark-angels-great-crusade-era-decal-sheet/The guys blog says that the transfers are rogue trader era transfers, he talks about them briefly here but i cannot find that type of transfer, the RT era dark angel ones are still thicc, photo following this posthttps://loserstudio.blogspot.com/2011/06/implacable-advance-deathwing-update.html
>>96999995Tbh morbegs are similar 3d cut and there isnt much U can do, but painting them was actually fun thing and they came up nice I think.I like these new marauders but I see many red flags.
>>97000031the 1989 DA transfer sheet
>>96999765It is actually better for xenos overall if the starter is orks, because dark eldar are getting a big wave of releases next edition even if they aren't in the starter box. So that guarantees at least three xenos are getting large releases instead of only two.
I'm trying to distract myself from doing my job, please help.Name a special character from a codex and I'll try to write a short paragraph or two about them in the vein of old timeline entries like >>96999824.
Even the Gue'vesa are prettier than Imperium 'women'
Any discounts during "Black Friday"? Looking to buy some paints & Atalan Jackals.
Speaking of DE, how has GW STILL not managed to restock any of their range in like two and a half months?
>>96999986I don't have alll the details in my mind right know, but there's a few main points:>Cypher is stronger and faster than normal marines. Once he kiled one of Abbadon's terminator bodyguards with his plasma pistol faster than abby could track him with the eye.>Out of nowhere, Cypher helped Guilliman escape from the Red Corsairs and reach Terra>Cypher tried to enter the Golden Throne room and the only thing that stopped him was a death but possesed Custodes telling him "Not yet">He both attacks and helps the Imperium. HIs actions and the rhetoric around him are an 1:1 match to the AL>The AL infiltrated all legions for decades even before the HH, they were able to mimic and pass in almost any situation>Alpharius/Omegon was able to pass as a normal marine. It was pretty much their superpower, and only few individuals could see through it (like Dorn)>After the HH, Omegon build an AL base to control all the AL cells in the galaxy. But at some point he dissapeared. By M40, a fucking shard of the Deceiver was inpersonating him until it was outed. So he has been MIA for millenia.>The last know real DA to be "Cypher" (a special rank in the DA before the HH) was a Luther follower and a librarian. He's still alive in the last HH books, but he doesn't match the 40k Cypher behaviour at all, and Cypher has never user psyker powers.>Cypher doesn't appear at all in the 40k Lion book and campaign, like he was unrelated to their plot, when he's supposed to be most infamous Fallen>The AL books contain foreshadowing like characters calling Alpharius a cypher and so on There's more, but if you read AL and DA books, it's obvious that it's a deliberate thing by the authors. Maybe they won't commit to it in the future like they didn't follow up with BR=TS, but the author intention is clear
>>97000124war dogs were out of stock for like 9 months at one point
Having a bunch of unopened boxes brings me a little happiness, after spending too much on models. I find myself unable to open them or work on new projects. Going to part time jobs on weekends that last 2-8 hours, working 6-10 hours weekdays, it feels like I never have time for anything and that the models I have already painted are missing details that could be filled in and thus never truly 'finished' so I cannot move on.
>>97000110Are Gue'vesa subject to Tau-style eugenics, or do they just kinda do their own thing?
>>96999752Started this over the weekend
>>96999701Have a spinny.>>96998879Tamiya epoxy putty and a silicone sculpting tool.
>>97000097Astorath the Grim
>>97000163he has McDonald cheese color
>>97000127>Cypher tried to enter the Golden Throne roomWorth mentioning that part of the AL lore is that Alpharius knew intimately all the ways in an out of the Palace even better that Custodes. Cypher behaviour doesn't match a DA dude from the HH, but it does 100% an AL operative from the era.
>>97000160There is one deathwatch book IIRC that mentioned something like the Tau breeding humans into Tau-like castes but it's never brought up again in any other book and deathwatch has always been of dubious canonicity so it's most likely that the Tau just allow humans to do their own thing. The primary benefit of humans over Tau is that they can be handed over to whatever job the Tau need at the time instead of needing to be bred specifically for it.
>>97000127>They shat out God knows how many Horus Heresy BL slop and not one of them revealed who Cypher is>Only fake outs and dead ends that are obviously not 40k Cypher.As if we need more proof of how BL books are worthless slop.
>>96999840Every tech priest is ready to copy necron technology while calling them subhuman
>>97000047Yeah, it's definitely not the 1989 ones, but the ones from >>97000031 look like a 1:1 matchYou're a lifesaver, thank you so much anon!I was hoping to be able to buy them somewhere but having an image for printing is a close second. Thanks again!
>>97000160Well, for one thing I rather doubt the tau willl put any significant effort into dealing with gue'vesa superstition like "rogue psykers" and other such. Stay tuned for happyfuntimes...and now I'm imagining a few radical ordo xenos inquisitors having people from very specific families inserted into tau controlled territory just to have a lot of kids there.
>>97000207>if BL explains something, is bad>if BL doesn't explain something, is badyou are the problem
>>97000216No worries, I enjoy little hunts for things like these.The pdf in the first link is super high quality, dont just use the image!
What's holding the Imperium together anyways? There's constant rebellions, the vast majority of the population lives in misery that would make North Korea look like a paradise, and most of their policies are self-destructive in some way. We've never seen any state last 10,000 years, let alone one this terrible, so how hasn't it balkanized by now?
>>97000239It might be the aliens trying to kill them and that many planets rely on the administratum for delivery of supplies they need to survive.
>>97000233Will do! Gonna use it to adorn some good ol' metal termies I picked up for my 2ED Space Hulk project
>>97000239The imperium isn’t all bad. There are hive worlds and garden worlds and everything in between. They just don’t show the middle upper class planets with not conflict because they are boring.
>>97000229Kidnapping Navigators in order to breed their own warp-guides seems like a no-brainer for the Tau. Wonder why they never tried.
>>97000265I don't think the 99% of the population living in misery is going to be reassured all that much by the fact that somewhere some wealthy nobleman is enjoying the pleasure slaves at a garden world.
>>97000284The Tau already have warp-navigators in the form of the Nicassar.
>>97000239The knowledge that they will be immediately consumed by Chaos, Xenos, or worse. There are very few worlds (or even systems) that could realistically hold off a Chaos invasion or Tyranid hive fleet, and they know it.Even the rebellions usually have the rebels profess loyalty to the Imperium, just trying to overthrow a bad ruler or bad Administratum policy.
>>97000293Nicassar ships are propelled by the pilots' psychic powers, but they don't actually have warp drives or warp-sight. They get towed by Tau ships during FTL travel.
>>97000187In the Ciaphas Cain book, The Greater Good, the Water Caste did make sure to bring a Gue'vesa on their diplomatic mission specifically to help give the Imperial party a more familliar presence that they can be more relaxed around. So it's reasonable to say, at least in that aspect, they would be grooming certain Gue'vesa into roles that would involve interacting with other Gue'la to help smooth interactions over.
>>96999803I got banned for posting this one time but this fuck gets to spam it forever?
>>97000287Again, you're putting a layer of retarded grimdark on even the garden worlds. 40k is an incredibly vast setting.
>>97000287Anon, most planets in the Imperium are civilized worlds (like ours) where life is chill. Its just that most stories take place on shitty planets because that's what sells
>>97000357>Anon, most planets in the Imperium are civilized worlds (like ours) where life is chillNo, they aren't Tired of dumb fucking tourists like (you) who think that life anywhere in the imperium outside of the .1% of worlds that are paradise worlds are even livable by modern standards
>>97000337
>>97000372What is life on paradise worlds like?
>>97000284They may not know much about navigators, and if they try then that's one thing the Imperium would almost certainly be exceptionally touchy about. And who knows, can navigators even breed properly with regular humans any more?
>>97000372>erm ackshyually life in the imperium is unbearably hellish because a meme said so
>>9700038499% pleasure slaves and 1% nobles that rape them
>>97000406>because a meme said sotry the opening blurb of the first rulebook you dumb fucking tourist
>>97000372ask me how I know you're a secondary
>>97000427>projectionyawn
>>97000427>Discussing lorePeak secondary behaviorYou're no better than him, fuck off nomodels this is the traditional GAMES general
>>97000406>every planet, including ones nowhere near a warzone, we have described is fucking awful>but, like, that's not representative of the REAL imperium because, uh, like it just isn't>oh and there's space version of Epstein island as well, don't those sound great?I'll preemptively ask you to spare me the cope about how living on a combine harvester that is constantly harvesting a offworld-bound monocrop that is actively poisoning both you and the planet is actually fantastic.
>>97000239Because the setting needs Imperium to live.>>97000265>>97000304False.
>>97000239watsonian explenation is tat Imperium is unified with it's specific system "You can do what ya want but remember these thing's Big E at the top and pay the Tithe" with Groundwork laid by the great crusade and Then twisted but upkept by the administratum it allowed it to persist while also keeping the enemy as an explenation for it's authoritarianism. A weird mix of Religious and identitarian Ideologies.doylist explanation is that GW would never allow their Main faction to die. They provide marines and marines keep the lights on.
>>96999936Yes, tomb kings are not bound to nagashs will
Man, upscaled versions of the old classic SM units look so good. It's a shame that they were replaced with the new stupid versions
>>97000337That's because you weren't a true believer.
>>97000451Ultramar is pretty good, it's like living in a welfare state and they make more money on average than any other planet in the imperium.
>>97000239the imperium isnt "held together" its actively falling apart
>>97000344The core conceit of the entire setting is that the Imperium is a miserable, inefficient hellhole that only survives because of its size and inertia. People think “If the Imperium was that retarded, it could never have survived this long!” In reality, the Imperium could only have survived this long through sheer retardation. You don’t arrive at a bureaucratic nightmare fuckfest like the Imperium as a consequence of rational decisions and central guidance, but from stagnation and mountains of sloppy half-solutions and thoughtless edicts stacked on top of one another.
>>97000406yes it is you duble retarded nigger. What part of >in the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginableYou did not understand? Any planet is diffrent flavour terrible and you can even make your own evil empire on the planet or even system.
>>97000427go back to your youtube shorts page
>>97000357>civilized worlds (like ours)Open the main rulebook.Civilised worlds include feudal worlds, hive worlds, and industrial worlds.
>>97000239Nothing, it's actively falling apart. It was just colossally enormous to begin with, and hasn't (yet) undergone a Slaaneshian extinction event like the Eldar did (Horus Heresy doesn't count, that was 'bout half and the Imperium won verses probably 80%+ of the eldar getting gobbled up with Slaneesh still very much prevalent.)
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>97000543God that artist sucks
Wait, so let me get this straight...The vast majority of Imperium worlds are comfortable Civilized Worlds with good living standards that haven't had to be squeezed meaningfully to contribute to the war effortAnd yet this bitch is still complaining like it's the end of the world even though the Imperium is in a very comfortable position?And for that matter, what are the Tau offering humans to betray the Imperium if their lives are so comfortable? At that point the only thing I could imagine them meaningfully offering the Gue'vesa is massive blue titties.
>>97000588>The vast majority of Imperium worlds are comfortable Civilized Worlds with good living standardsnope
>>97000588>like it's the end of the world even though the Imperium is in a very comfortable positionIsn't the Imperium split in half by the cicatrix maledictum or whatever it's called? I don't think they're comfortable at the moment
>>97000492Ultramar is better than most planets but its still a fucking hell hole
>>97000588>"so let me get this straight">proceeds to get every imaginable fact wrongmany such cases
>>97000577Post some cool DE art
>>97000612There is none
>>97000606Not a single guy in ultramar ever said he wants to move to another planet for a better wage. People move to ultramar.
The guy you hate but is always right about everything
Drukhari bros, what do you think of this change?>Swap Hellion and Incubi Pain Token ability
I hope 11th brings mortals instead of lame power armor guys for the chaos armies.
>>97000682trying too hard
>>97000684How is this considered trying too hard? 40k doesnt feel like 40k anymore, it feels like a space marine power armor orgy. Necromunda is more 40k than 40k.
>>97000691>bawww my space marine army has too many space marines in it :(((yes, (you) are trying too hard
>>97000682I hope 11th brings killa kans with baggy pants and cool sneakers instead of lame normal killa kan guys for the ork armies
Bro fit with the rest of the crew. where my kin walker mech GW?
Gotta like when a new monitorum field manual gets uploaded and there is 0 point change in it
>>97000627>Not a single guy in ultramar ever said he wants to move to another planet for a better wage.>He thinks people in the Imperium can move to different planets for a better wage
>>96999752slowly but surely making some progress on Ahriman
>>97000692They should be a chaos army first and foremost.
>>97000700You should make a giant robot crab as a stand in for their moon buggy
>>97000704GoddamnGood stuff anon
>>97000704where are his arms. Without them I can only focus on his supple breasts.
>>97000704Some of your best work
Hi anons. I'm trying to do some demoness-themed Succubi for my Deldar - lore being that they do pit fights executing other Drukhari and cosplay as Daemons to put a bit of extra terror into their victims. I've got a bunch of heads that I've been trying to test colour schemes for. Does this reddish-pink read well enough for what I'm going for? And if so, what do you all think the correct hair colour should be?
>>97000706>I don't like this army so they should get rid of it and replace it with birdmengo back to /aosg/
>>97000738That looks great, though maybe make the others slightly cooler tone skin (smidge of purple/fuschia)?Hair I'd do the rest of the model first and then see what feels best.
>>97000751Where did I say any of that? Are you a woman? You are arguing like one. Are you mad I dont like your effeminate named twinks that are Ahriman or Magnus the big fucking anus!?
>>97000778Trying too hard
>>97000738Looks like a night elf from wow
>>97000704The contrast you get from time is wild
>>97000778NTA but you literally said the thousand sons shouldn't be the thousand sons and should be a generic tzeentch army
Why don't people respect these guys
>>97000723>>97000734Thanks anons. Can't wait to fuck it up with an attempt at OSL on the cloth>>97000729He's really easy to subassemble so I figured I might as well go for it
>>97000803>Can't wait to fuck it up with an attempt at OSL on the clothAirbrush presumably? Just get some masking putty and you'll be fine my man
>>97000758I'll try one with a purple base with pink on top, instead of dark red -> pink on top.Guess I leave hair for now.>>97000784Well, they are still a space elf so that's a plus, I guess?
>>97000239It’s only really unified in a nominal sense, and it’s technically balkanizing all the time, but the Imperium is just so damn huge in comparison that those small breakaway chunks can be reconquered whenever the Imperium feels like it. Even then, they’re reaching a point where that’s starting to stop working.TL;DR: It exists because there’s enough people who think it should keep existing that they can gang up on the ones who don’t.
>>97000704Just when I'm feeling good about my cloth gradients you come to mog my best efforts
>>97000800cannon fodder isnt interesting
>>97000825Despite the fact they keep the imperium of man running
>>97000832Do you also think electricians and plumbers are interesting?
>>97000832why would I care about that the imperium sucks
>>97000835How is that even a comparison >>97000836t. Xeno
>>97000788supplementing an army with new things to expand its identity is not hating on it. Nor is it an collated call for removing whats in place. >>97000825I disagree. The underdogs are always cool.
>>97000853>tzaanfaggot is an NPCfaggotimagine my shock
>>97000588The population density of hive planets and cities (non-hive worlds often have hive cities) means that the majority of people live in hives.
>>96999946No amount of buffs is going to make the Stompa worth it when its 800 points and a single 150 tank hunter unit can drop half its wounds in 1 turn of shooting.>>97000239Fanatical like dedication to the emperor. Think about it they are born and raised in an insane cult that preaches that very real heretics and aliens want to slaughter them. Its like imperial japan levels of devotion to the cause especially when said faith also literally manifests into actual power.Also outside of some BL authors (who are freelancers not actually affiliated with GW directly and actually have no obligation to read or keep the lore consistent with the setting) circlejerking the everything sucks and life is terrible and the imperium is evil shit over and over again. Actual publications straight from GW like rulebooks and codices kind of just describe the vast majority of people living in what is essentially modern day detroit, feudal europe with guns and tanks or industrial revolution britain/usa. (still all very fucked if your at the bottom of the ladder btw)
>>97000862>calling anyone who wants LESS marines an npcuh huh
>>97000853>supplementing an army with new things to expand its identity is not hating on it>it should be a chaos army first and foremast is a call to change it fundamentallyYou don't like the army, you can't pretend you give a shit about something when you just want to ruin what exists currently
>>97000871>A-actually the protagonists of the setting are NPCsLmao, seething little tzaantroon
>Solomon Akurra is probably getting a modelDo you think that all the traitor legions without their own codex get a named character model, like thr loyalists got?
>>97000239The most common enemy the guard are going to be fighting are human rebellions
>>97000845>t. Xenofuck you say to me
>>97000868What are you yapping about retard>>97000853Agree the guardsmen are severely underrated
>Moggs your Chapter Master
>>97000921furfags can't mog anythinggo back to your discord
>>97000853Maybe they could, idk, write an interesting and solid chaos daemon codex instead of giving up on them entirely
i asked this last thread but are HH units with heavy weapons to small to proxy as Havocs? they are on differences bases but idk
>>97000924Screw off
>>97000890literally false where do you get this shit from? After the HH the imperium was mostly stable outside of fighting off major ork incursions time to time and some chaos cults with the occasional crisis from within and then the last 300 years of the setting have been nonstop war with more and more xenos showing up and chaos growing bolder and larger. The main part of the settings timeline is literally called the time of ending.>>97000897Industrial revolution britain had people working 14 hour shifts 6 days a week with no medical care and if you got injured you got fired because you couldn't keep up with quotas and were basically left for dead if you didn't have a family to take care of you. sound familiar?Also look up the imperial japanese soldiers that kept fighting for literal decades after japan surrendered because they believed it was US propaganda, and those guys did it because they believed some regular guy to be a god. Now what do you think happens when faith in said guy actually does revive the dead?
>>97000933Put the trip back on.
>>97000878>is a call to change it fundamentallyIt really isn't. Suggesting that thousand sons are a marine army first and foremost is some faggy shit. You want that then 30k is wide open for you, you can get all the marines you want there. Im prospecting a blackshield or word bearer army myself. In 40k however, they are a CHAOS army, not this pseudo 30k shit that everyone keeps wanting to suggest on them for some reason. The two settings need to be as far apart as they can be frankly. >when you just want to ruin what exists currentlyThats literally a part of the army's identity. A force that was ruined thanks to magnus giving himself up to tzeentch. Is it a gross simplification of it? Maybe, but that is the armies identity at the end of the day. They are low enough to use cults and what not instead of relying on their rubrics all the time.

>>97000976You get your one allied detachment, if you want to run tzeentch daemons play Chaos Daemons
>>97000967>the thousand sons and their faggot furry birdmen friendsNTA but the sorcery and faggot furry birdmen friends to use as dispoable pawns is exactly why they swore fealty to Tzeentch.But also straight from the GW website when you hover over thousand sons"wield the sorcerous powers of Tzeentch with the sons of magnus" its clearly marines first and foremost

>>97001026thats what I said in my post too. If you hover over the factions ranges on GWs actual website it literally calls them the sons of magnus and every single description given by GW clearly puts marines front and center

Man if gsc weren’t so fucking ass to paint I would have picked up 4 of the old combat patrols. Could play them in necrocum and 40k (which I rarely wish to subject myself to these days.)

Are you seriously arguing that people can't move to planets where they can earn a higher wage?
>>97001211Are you seriously considering that people who can’t earn enough of a wage can afford to immigrate to other planets?
>>97000887I read alpha legion books but the main alpha legion guy in those is a Jew called Solomon.
>>97001217Do people in the imperium take each other's jobs with immigration?If the imperium is so bad, it should have this main characteristic of a hellish unemployed existence despite a CS degree from a top 100 university
Chaos has literally cut the entire galaxy in half... forever... and weakened the Imperium... forever. Do people really think anyone but Chaos even has a chance?
Just read False Gods again for the first time in years, holy fucking shit this book is so bad. I forgot how fucking bad it is. I'm actually angry at how this retard author already ruined the potential of this series in the second fucking book of the series. Like, even from a technical standpoint the book is dogshit, but from a story perspective its an absolute warcrime. I feel like any random neckbeard off the street could write a better sequel to Horus Rising.
>>97001267If chaos loses demons in hopes of adopting more marines than maybe the imperium has hope.
>>97001168I just used the rank of a captain to differentiate a leader character. And if I ever play a game using them, I'll count him as one.

>>97001278It gives horus quite literally the worst possible motivation. Like his brother is warning him its a trick and he's like "nut uh." Plus the reason for Horus needing to be saved is also insane. Hard to believe after Horus Rising they signed off on THIS as the final edit. This is what they are happy with revising their entire universe to revolve around.
>>97001313wrong generalwrong board even
>>97001211>>97001217Typical lore reasoning is >Option A: Planet got wiped out by natural disaster, disease, alien invasion, etc. Hives suddenly have fliers advertising your new life on a spacious agri-world or mining world. >Option B: Join the guard. Save a planet. Command leaves you behind because the cost of returning you home, plus they need to repopulate the planet after the war. >Option C: Use generational life savings to afford pilgrimage on a commercial or ecclesiastical ship going to a shrine world or something. >Option D: Be gangpressed/enslaved into service on a ship by the AdMech/Pirates/Rogue Traders/Etc. >Option E: Your planet is evacuated due to war/natural disaster/alien invasion/etc and you are sent... somewhere else.
It was funny to read the necron book ruin in which 3 huge ships chased those necrons. It's like they set up the big 3 as the tech priests, guardsmen and marines. The guardsmen had the biggest ship and had to be killed by flayer infiltration. The imperium is so big it has everything, does the rest of the Galaxy stand a chance?
As silly as it is the whole "move planets to make more money" thing is canon. Bequin from the Eisenhorn novels talks about it in book 1 back when she's still a prostitute. She talks about almost having saved enough money to catch a shuttle off planet for a better paying planet.

It seems like races that join the Tau Empire all seem to be treated better than whatever they had before. This really makes it clear that the eventual victory of the Tau is inevitable, as they can combine the best aspects of every race they assimilate.
>>97001449Well Tau don't allow race mixing
>>97001454
>>97000800Because these guys have the exact same schtick they do but better.
>>97001454Implessive.
>>97001333I'm not exaggerating at all I promise, I think it's actually probably the worst novel I've ever read.All of the characters act like retarded babies with the most melodramatic over-reactions to everything, the complete opposite of how they behaved in the previous novel. As opposed to hardened veterans of a thousand battles they behave like little girls. Abaddon especially.Loken, the main character, at one point literally catches Erebus red handed, and decides to tell absolutely nobody. In fact he does basically nothing for the entire novel and just narrates the events happening around him.There's this chapter where the author makes a human character into his mouthpiece and tries to sell us some RETARDED SHIT about the Emperor ackshually being pro-equality and a supporter of democracy. Even in-universe, these are citizens of the Imperium born 200 years after the beginning of the Crusade, how would they even fucking know what Democracy is, much less want to support it?Erebus, the guy everybody is already suspicious of (and the guy Loken KNOWS is up to no good), just goes "Hey Horus bro, I know you're mad at me but hear me out; There's this guy on a moon - yeah one (1) guy - and he's talking MAD SHIT about you bro. Halt your entire military campaign and send your whole legion to drop on this moon and fuck him up!", and Horus with his superhuman intellect is like "Damn really? Ok."Then after Erebus is revealed to have planted the murder weapon, led them all into a trap, is obviously a servant of Chaos, the Sons of Horus collectively go "Let's trust this guy again.", and go hang out at a chaos shrine with him while he mindrapes their Primarch.This fucking FAGGOT author took every plot thread and character that Dan Abnett set up and ended them all prematurely cos he wanted to be the guy who wrote Horus' fall. Left nothing for the next author to work with. We could have had a whole series with these characters, but nah. Faggot./autism over
>>97001062Stopped playing them awhile ago and my win rate when I did was like 10%
>>97000175I've found a yellow that's the exact colour of McDonald's cheese and I've become obsessed with it
>>97001454I tried to read books on taus caste system because WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH LITERATURE OF ANY FORM ON A RACIAL CASTE SYSTEM.Everyone who writes about the caste system of the past or India is always crying about how it's a bad thing so nothing gets discussed constructively.Some chinese american guy wrote elemental council and it was so bad that I dropped it after one chapter. Clearly fictional asian women ruin that book like they ruined 3 body problem even though they're written as girlbosses.We have no good tau books. Fire caste was a bad book.
>>97001333>>97001499Repeating digits do not lie.
>>97001376Dont forget that you generations of your bloodline in debt expect for service in the imperial guard or be selected or chosen to become a space marine. while being mustered for service in the imperial guard at a age of 13/16. But even then you a life debt in scars if you by some miracle make it in the IG and as SM you will never have children of your own and you will die a horrible death in darkness of space.Best choice is the IG, compared to anything else. Or be a born very very very high noble. so the 0.0001% of humans.
>>97001524>finds a colour that reminds him of processed cheese>paints his army with itamerifats, ladies and gentlemen
>>97001551looks more like color scheme of CAT excavators and heavy equipment to me but ok, processed cheese could work. Its more towards orange then yellow but you maybe color impaired and disabled.
>>97001499What's wrong with you?Loken and Tarik can't do anything even if they don't like what's going on. They're number 3 and number 4. Erebus is obviously good friends with abbadon and horus, he has charisma. Loken can't stop him.Abbadon was always genocidal. He's the most violent non primarch character in the entire series. He was always like that even before Horus got corrupted. But that's also why Horus has him because he needs war dogs so he can pretend to be peaceful while abbadon takes the blame for being too violent. Horus has to squash any rebellion he can see, especially if they occur on a planet that he just left earlier on.The only thing that doesn't make sense is how quickly he turned on the emperor in his dream. I guess it's envy.
>>97001454As Indians do with other cultures.
>>97001533Best scenario is tech priest. Nobody will ever kill you because you're a software engineer making 300k a year maintaining outdated machines and weapons. Being a tech priest is better than being a titan princeps since you get to do other things. If you're smart enough you become someone like cawl. You're immortal, immune to disease. You also get to drop your disgusting body behind and become metal.

>>97000692Uh oh marine timmy meltie
>>97001062I never bought the codex after they got rid of basic infantry and I play one of the regiments they made rules for.
>>97000691>Space marines totally weren't the main focus of the game forever trust me>we need this niche thing that I like
>>97001575They're members of the Mournival, which was created for the express purpose of advising Horus. He decides to not listen to their advice.Its not just Loken and Tarik who are suspicious of Erebus, at one point they all are and then they just flip and believe him hook line and sinker for no reason whatsoever.Abaddon wasn't a maniac in the first book, he was shown to be cold and calculating but displaying many qualities of leadership. In this book he acts like a huge manchild flying of the handle into violent rage over absolutely nothing and just being a general dickhead to his comrades in arms. I'm supposed to believe this guy is now the leader of Chaos Undivided? Guess that explains why he's such a fuckup now lmao.If you liked the novel I wont argue any more but I just really feel like it was childish and poorly written. In an alternate timeline we could have had a whole bunch of books chronicling the events that led to the betrayal, but instead we got this.
>>97001575>I guess it's envy.No, its because he was always disgruntled but good at hiding it. They show that with the interex. He followed orders but internally questioned them constantly. He thought he could do better, and the Interex was him trying his own way. He knew the Emperor saw humans in control of the Imperium, not transhumans. This was another thing he disagreed with fundamentally. He quite literally thought he could do everything better. He's a decent character, imo. But the other anon is right that Horus Rising is the worst of the three, but he also is intentionally hiding things about the book to make it seem worse than it is. Loken literally can't do shit about the lodges because the vast majority of the people around him are IN the lodges, and Horus supports them. He literally doesn't have the political pull to stop the slide into open chaos worship and its said multiple times and there are multiple conversations that confirm this, like when he rejects the offer to join a lodge.

>>97001454Now say that again while looking at the guy with the mind control helmet onEverything I hear about tau auxilliaries always reads like some bullshit that's eventually gonna turn into a Foundation type rugpull when the time comes like giving planets factories and personnel, protectionist policies and treaties, slowly raising up a support base around tau cultural worship (The 2 novels where Cain meets the tau do a really good job at showcasing this but Elemental Council does too) and the type of shit I have to read through in my 20th century history class at university. Sure their quality of life might have gotten better but their cultures are slowly being corroded from the inside and their entire political structure has been put through to make them a slave state. If ayone could pull that one NATO interview that'd be nice...

There re no free jobs in 40k. your born in to your position and you stay there. Military service is the only escape. It is like in medieval times in Europe. If you father was Clerk for adminstratum counting wood chip reports from 10 years ago because of warp lag of world that is long destroyed you will be doing it too. As was your forefathers and them before you and your children will be. No advancement by merit only if some dies above you and your the only choice left and demotion to become a servitor or a lesser position. Work place schemes and other stuff. family fudes. The list goes on. Even civilian life is hell. This nothing like modern times. There is no high schools no education system. your parents teach you what they know and they dont know much beyond what they do and did for the rest of there life's.

>>97001764There's no such thing as merit. It's always nepotism. Sometimes things don't look like nepotism but that's just because people are extending their family. Even the Tau use nepotism because they don't let people change their castes.

That is even more emphasized by biology with the tau as the cast system has generically shoe horned the race in specific task they can perform better the others of other casts.

I think I dropped it on their second mission.
>>97001869An even 50 so far but that was my entire 1st army + the marines in the starter box vs nids....i just started on my SoB army today so its going to be around 90ish by the time this year ends.....my job is soul crushing and im severly mentally ill pls send help lmao
>>97000853i get what you're saying anonlike in theory its okay that these armies have more variation to them that goes beyond just the marinesi particularly like the idea of my 1ksons fielding daemonsbut many of the deity legions have a shortage of actual marine stuff for them 1ksons especially. they haven't ever actually got a real trope of marines since they became an army. tzaangors getting stuff is especially insulting considering that bad combat patorl, and them being from AoSits not much better for world eaters eitherSo its a weird hill to die on, saying that the already starved for content chaos armies shouldn't get their main draw added to them. Mortals and even daemons would be the last thing i'd give 1ksons also consider this, regular marines don't use guard or even auxilia, even if in their lore they do fight alongside them all the time. so why should chaos armies be expected to use mortals
>>970018692
>>97001869Somewhere in the upper 30s-40s

Soon
>>97002578thanks for the knowledge king
>>97002464I gave up on a sisters of battle detachment less than halfway through the first box. whoever designed the sprues did not want the line to succeed.
>>97002588I'm scared to see how they'll ruin it
>>97002602Mk3 was ugly through and through already
>>97002519Hmm okay. I do need to get more precise on my paint mixing for sure>>97002543I've painted it over by now but it's come back once so if it does so again I'll post. I'm using citadel paints
>>97002622It wasn't great but the update made it way worse
>>97002602they didn't keep the potato masher grenades from the DG, why bother
>>97002622hipster faggot
>>97002588Once these and mkiv come out I'm gonna make a small deathwatch army. I was never a primaris hater but I'm becoming more autistic about the armor and liking it less and less as time goes on
>>97002622Kill yourself.
>>97002588MKV has always been the worst markjust uglier MKVII to excuse away why traitor marines had the mouth grilles before the MKVII in the heresy retcon
>>96999725>>96999740It should just be marines vs marines, fuck xenos who cares about them they dont bring in enough money to justify them being in the starter box. Also we need a primaris refresh already
>>97002687this isnt /hhg/ fuck off there
>>97002538Are saboteurs very popular? I rarely see them in stock
>>97001869Units? Like 21Models? About 48
>>97001988I should do this to my exocrines.
>>9700186916Maybe 60 models all up
>>97002694But we need another primaris refresh anon, not some meme dark eldar refresh. Irrelevant factions dont need a refresh anyway
>>96999752shitty pic but it's late and i'm tired. was able to make some good progress on some Skyclaws and their wolfguard pack leader today at work. not a legal loadout for the squad, but i've got a bunch of bits collecting dust and wanted to make something more unique
>>96999797Tomb Kang, because Settra would be the best liege lord to be ultimately subservient to

>>97002786Last thing I painted I had some issues with the primer so I'm gonna give it a while to cure before working on it. Still have no idea what chapter for his pauldron but I'll figure that out later
Choose your fighter
>>97002786las fusils mostly
>>97002825Do the others get to watch? Water caste if so.
>>97002825Right if he's the only boy, otherwise top
>>97002624Okay here is a picture. It's pretty bad om this arm
>>97002360
>>97002883Cut! He forgot the image. Take 2. Action!
>>97002906Kind of funny but fuck you
>>97002910Did you prime it? Looks like bare plastic underneath
>>97002910That looks like finger oils to me, or potentially a poorly shaken primer but that could also be abrasion from your fingertips. Is your primer tacky to the touch? If it's sticky then you got a bad mix on your primer. If not it's most likely from you holding the bit with your fingertips and physically rubbing the paint off. Acrylic paint takes about 24 hours to fully cure, and even if it's dry to the touch, the paint underneath the surface may not be. Most people doing subassemblies mount their bits to paper clips so they have something to hold onto. If you're physically touching your painted surfaces you're going to get rubbing. Think of a layer of paint like a blob of white glue. If you give it an hour to set you can come back and touch it and nothing will happen, even if it hasn't set all the way, but what happens if you were to rub or squeeze that blob?
>>97002917>>97002910I'm hoping that's mechanicus grey primer or I'm gonna be really annoyed that this guy was asking about glazing osl highlights yesterday
>>97002917>>97002981>>97002969I primed gray but it was sticky to the touch even after letting it dry for an hour, and I might have missed spots... it looked like it was pooling a little so I went a bit light, but I later on noticed that I had missed some spots on the bases. If primer is sticky, does that need I need to shake it more? I timed myself to make sure I shook it as long as the instructions specified...
>planned to get a punch of painting done this weekend>did none of itfuck
>>97003063Also: I'm pretty sure I'm not rubbing it off because these spots keep clearing up even if I paint them and leave them alone, and some of the worst spots are in places I wouldn't really touch much at all, such as on the boots.
>>97003074Same with me. My Kastelan robots are giving me the evil eye
if I got a tervigon, norn emissary, hierophant bio titan, and a harridan that's like 2000 points. is that a good nid setup?
>>97002710I did see one exocrine converted with the enhanced senses carnifex head on instagram and it looked much better than the vanilla head.
>>97003074>hey bro hop on ARC Raiders with us, quick raid in & out, 20 minutes max>7 hours later I'm the last one standing because everyone else has to go to bed since it's late alreadyI can actually feel my brain liquefying, damn this "just one more resource" heroin addict simulator
>>97003074Same. It's been cold as fuck so I stayed in bed most of the weekend.
>>97003074I feel youwas going to work on some necromunda stuff but I left some blue paint I needed for it open and it driedTried painting a tank instead and didnt like the schemegave up and started some gunpla
>>97003074Same here, except i decide to drink on a Friday night, and then drink again the night after as I hate dealing with hangovers so no painting gets done and my weekend is ruined
>>97003063If you got sticky primer it means you didn't shake it enough. The primer you applied may cure eventually, but will take weeks, maybe even months until it stops being tacky and even then the durability is far worse, and will rub off with little abrasion. I would suggest you either leave this guy to sit and cure for a few weeks, and stripping the rest if they're still sticky now, or just stripping all over them. Sometimes a can of spray that has sat for a long time will separate and you'll need to shake it for longer. Soaking your can in a warm water bath before you shake it will help loosen up everything and allow it to mix better.
>>97003092Nope. You're gonna get tarpitted and reamed on objectives
>>97003331Hmm.... it'll be a pita but I guess I haven't done much on the others except base coat em...
>>97003340You can either strip them and restart them, or wait an indefinite amount of time for your primer to cure. It sucks, but generally primer problems aren't really fixable with any later steps so it's better to just start over than spend ages battling it. I waited four months for an incredibly bad prime on a redemptor to cure and it still had some softer/more delicate spots in the recesses and the paint chips off the base rim easier than any other model I own.
>>97003365Yeah, that's true. How will I know that I've shaken the can enough?
>>97003338so your saying there's a chance
>>97003378You don't. That's why you always shake it way more than it tells you, and way more than you think. That's why Graffiti artists are constantly shaking their cans in between their "brushstrokes".
>>97003386I didn't say that, you said that
>>97003406Okay, I'll keep that in mind
Goddamn I love sticky objectives mechanic so much

>>97001684Vespids aren't mind-controlled, in their Kill-team book we got scene describing how helmets work and Tau literally just talk to them. >For all this, Ga'mo has to work hard to keep up. She is extremely familiar with the Mal'kor of Void Flare Team, having worked with them for six combat missions, and is coming to realise this job will never get easier. >Her Vespids are relentlessly aggressive, even compared to the traditionally hot-headed T'au of Vior'la Sept. Their predatory impulses must be constantly reined in. >One moment they are frantic with the need to act, the next so deathly still that Ga'mo has feared more than once that her instrumentation has frozen. >When they fire their weapons en masse, the guns radiation hampers even the hardened technologies of the Earth caste. The effect can leave Shas'ui Ga'mo twining her fingers in an unconscious gesture of the Warrior Blinded until data flow is restored.
>>97003791>VF-One, status report' she repeats, relieved but not liking the feel of the situation. What comes back to her is not the actual voice of the Vespid, as that would not translate in any meaningful form that her senses could process. >Instead, an artificial voice emerges from her headset, its tones melodious yet mechanically clipped - the communion helm's best approximation of its wearer's meaning.>'Shas'ul, restoration, gladness, victorious assertion, hurts minor, pursuit desire.'>Shas'ui Ga'mo is used to interpreting such communications by now. >The Strain Leader's reports become more like a stream of consciousness, she finds, during the heat of battle.Kill-Team Hivestorm, pages 20 and 21.
>>97002786whats the lore reason why now each squad has one niche weapon? seems retarded. nice paint job though looks good.
>>96999833Are you winding me up anon? It's free hand, you can see the blending at the edges and it isn't straight. It's a very easy icon to freehand and that's what informed the design in the first place
