What is the gayest faction in 40k?
>>97161618The one you like the most
this general does make me laugh sometimes
>>97161602You don't need to tell us when you're going to be riding the bus home from work
>>97161618Why, Space Wolves of course! We already went over this!
>>97161618Space wolves
>>97161625Ye its funny to just fling some shit or watch the shitflinging
>>97161590Let's not do this immediatelyPost models, wips, games, lists, terrain, /yourdudes/ fluff, paint recipes
>>97161625It's similar to watching apes throw shit at each other, it's kinda amusing but you know it's actually retarded
>>97161635>No sagittal crest on the skullAnother space raccoon
Alright, what have I gotten myself into?
>>97161618Blood Angels
>>97161590>TQSpace Marines (Imperial Fists) VS Orks
>>97161642WIP Chaos Termie HQ
>>97161642Posting some of the fellas>TQOrks and Eldar would be pretty cool. I won't buy it but Its an interesting match up.
>>97161618Space wolves have a ritual where during their first post hunt feast, the initiates must pass a shot of high strength alcohol between each others mouths, in a circle around a long table trying not to spill any, and if it doesn't hit a certain line on a glass after it's been passed to everyone they have to do it again until they don't spill any
>>97161655A whole lot of nothingThats <2k and its gonna move extremely slowly in either direction generally trending upwardsMaybe in 5 years you’ll have 3k lmfao
>>97161618BA, they give their dreads lips so they can kiss boys even in death
The Twilight series really did a number on the Werewolf/Vampire genre...
>>97161680I heard they did this with their assholesAsspissing the alcohol into each subsequent soldiers asshole, measuring at the end, each initiate drinking the concoction to prove their masculinity
>>97161590They'll never do it, but hear me out:No Marines in the starter box. We're going all out on trying to make some of the less popular factions sell to "prove" that of actual factions were supported even a fraction of SM, they'd sell better.Admech vs. Necrons with a Mechanicus II tie-in. Pretend they're lined up better than they currently are. Hell, go full corposlop and have it come with some DLC or skin for the game.Admech:20 skitarii1 Skorpius10 Pteraxii10 Sicarians1 Marshal1 New Jumppack HQ1 EnginseerVs10 ImmortalsLord with translocation shroud20 warriors1 cryptek1 Doomsday ark5 flayed onesThat new lord that's out/coming out( we had the foresight to put him in the game in this scenario)New Trazyn
Game Awards today. Total War 40k announcement. Get ready.
>>97161642getting really close to taking a break from these threads for a while
>>97161618You have to be a raging faggot to think yiffers are cool
>>97161704*fucks ur mouth stoically*
>>97161712You must be a knight player
>>97161705You're not even acknowledging the question now, you're just spamming that SW are faggots. Is this amusing to you?
>>97161718How could you tell?Was it how stoically I fucked that guys mouth?
>>97161719Wasn't talking to you, if you don't like it ignore me
>>97161697I hope you do realize that if they announce tww40k this general is basically done
>>97161689that sounds like what you and your queer party friends do every weekend before the game of 40k
>>97161730Oh no! What a loss that will be
>>97161691Extra bonus idea: kind of like how the Skaventide Box let you play Spearhead, the box lets you play an updated PvE version of Killteam like they introduced in the new edition. It comes with some sort of board and some minor terrain that lets you play it while also having an ad for an upcoming Killteam terrain set that comes out 3-4 months after the edition launch to get the "full experience" or whatever, but otherwise has a playable board with some foldable thick board like the Spearhead board.
>>97161736lmao fair enough
>>97161731We dont play 40k
>>97161618It's a three way tie between Blood Angels, Knights, and Space Wolves
>>97161738>the box lets you play an updated PvE version of Killteam like they introduced in the new editionYou had me until killteam.
>>97161719Space wolves are pretty fucking gay to be fair
>gayest faction>not elveslollamo even
>>97161704Yeah I'm right there with you bud, it's either that or I figure out how to filter on mobile
should knights get squatted into admech or agents
>>97161618Loyalist Knights
>>97161719His opinion isn't gospel, no need to crash out over it
>>97161749of course, why did I assume such a thing
>>97161642Blessed to have a guy really really into conversions/kitbashes/etc in the group. Pic related is something he put together for the Thousand Sons player.He plans on some GSC stuff in the new year, asked me for any spare nid bits, excited to see what he comes up with.
>>97161762Oh it’s the guy who shills Voidscarred ironically. Listen man, you can save these threads. Could you say the words “xenofag” and “Mike Brooks” for the next six or so hours? You just might be able to drown out the other idiots. We’re counting on you.>>97161738This would be fun but personally I prefer they just bring back having plenty of terrain.
>>97161778Mine is though and I agree with him
Jannies please save us
>>97161759It doesn't necessarily have to be killteam but it should advertise an alternative PvE gamemode LIKE the one Killteam introduced. Hell, launch it brand new like they did for Spearhead and have it function as a simplified version of 11th. Make the game be designed to last no more than an hour or two, and its relatively easy to set up and take down.
>>97161775That does look really gay are these yours?
>>97161797there is no escape from this
>>97161806>>97161775>>97161761This is mental illness on full display
>>97161809Fug.
>>97161704>Avatarfags following the orange and tealtroon's example and announcing their leaving the generalOh boy how exciting
>>97161806Yeah after I got monkeypox I spent a lot more time at home and didn't have anything else to do
Okay guys I'm ready to try this airbrush out to paint a tank, hey this is nice, easy to- *clogs*
>>97161786Really cool, are kitbashes like that all green stuff and 3D prints?
>>97161816You're talking about how youve made almost 100 posts yourself in the last 9 hours right?
>>97161704Just filter them out
>>97161830>Clogging ACTUAL FACTUAL genuine 100% pure skill issue
>>97161642
>>97161738>>97161759Terrain is a big bummer for getting normies into the hobby ecosystem. If you wanted this to work you revive the Kill Team: Fireteam hex based system loosely aligned with Underworlds and include a Darkwater style map book to be used along with it. Ideally it would look something like Ultimate Edition: Full Spearhead+ Armies with Terrain, Starter Edition: Spearheads with Fireteam map book/rules, Recruit Edition: HQ + ETB Troop, paper mat, hobby supply tax.
>>97161834
>>97161834finally an on topic post
>>97161790My idea is kind of striking a happy medium between "Magical Christmasland" and "There's a world where this could actually happen." Using some shitty FDM terrain that you pop out of a board would allow the box to have a reasonable size while still baiting people into buying more complex 3d terrain in the future. The videogame tie-in lets them ride the hype while also just being a decently reasonable box to purchase for people who don't give a fuck about that. The PvE gamemode attracts a demographic who aren't interested in PvP while still selling functional game pieces to players who do.
>>97161786>no multi coloured feathersmissed opportunity
>>97161844I don't know what it is about hexes, but unless you're a battletech player, hexes make people bounce off of it. I have no idea why, but at least anecdotally, it's something I've noticed.
>>97161844Half of that image is homosexual, the top half specifically
>>97161840Yes, for sure. I seem to lack the required levels in alchemy to make this thing work. I'd rather paint with my fingers
>>97161642>>97161858
>>97161851>>97161862They must be corrected and learn the way. Darkwater will be a watershed moment for adoption of the system.
>>97161775I LOVE these!
>>97161870>I'd rather paint with my fingersThat is about all your brain can handle
how many times per year do you actually get to play anonbe honest now
>>97161878Do you have any models of your own you would like to share with the group?
>>97161878I wonder if he realizes the irony of this lmao. Also, does that guy even paint anything other than updoot bait?
>>97161870Just mix in some flow improver to whatever paint you're airbrushingAnd always remove the needle and give the cup and needle and tip a good cleaning with water and isopropyl rinses, get some cheap 5 cent brushes to scrub inside the cup if you don't have a disassemblable airbrushDo all of this and you should never clog
Saw this in the previous thread, what’s the model on the left?
Everyone in the thread would be much happier if they played xenos
>>97161775Knights in chapter colors doesn't even make any sense that's not how knights work
>>97161889I get in about a game every two weeks
>>97161911Google it genius
Too much of an impatient pig to wait any longer so I drove an hour and a half to grab these so I can FINALLY do my vanguard vet squad. I'll post them in like a month when this place settles down
>>97161911Pretty sure it's just an option in the kit otherwise its a venom or reaver head on a wych
>>97161916I don't know about these other undesirables but I play the pinnacle Xeno race who are still technically the strongest faction if at full strength,
>>9716192124 games every yearyou must be the happiest man on whole /tg/
>>97161889About once/twice a month, on a good month.Everyone in the group has jobs with demanding schedules, some have kids. Only one person has the house space for multiple tables as well as being convenient for everyone geographically. Another person can host out of their garage, but only in the summer for semi-outdoor games. Any game stores are nowhere near local & we've all had negative experiences with them and the smelly nerds that go to such places.
Don't fucking respond to me, you retard. I want actual humans to respond to me.
>>97161916But I play Votann
>>97161951And those are just friendlies. I also attend about three RTTs a year at my LGS, and two GTs in the local scene.
>>97161954odd behavior on an anonymous board.
>>97161961U wot?!
>>97161889>2016It all went by in a flash...
>>97161964You go out of your way to not be anonymous to the detriment of everyone
>>97161964>AnonymousComing from the tranny with a tripcode who repeatedly has tried to get everybody to use tripcodes
>>97161971You can just filter me and never talk with me again....am I missing something here?
>>97161775You should swap those heads out they don't fit the look at all
>>97161916I play Necrons and Dark Eldar.
>>97161961Do you have at least one of this guy?
>>97161986Just ignore the replies you get
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>97162010I still enjoy having discussions with my peers tho.
>>97161990>>97162015Dark Eldar?More like...
>>97162018All of your posts are just complaining or accusing
>a tranny is locked into a desperate bid for recognitionmany such cases
>>97162019
>>97162002I love love love this model but it's pretty much the only votann I like. I'd try to give him craggly rock-like skin like some votann have and paint him more like an alien
>>97161987They're meant to match the Chapters they've chosen.
>>97162041sounds like thanksgiving dinner at your place ever year KWAB
>>97161889I probably average somewhere between once a week to once every two weeks.
>>97161987I was thinking of switching them with these but my medication makes my hands really shaky so I'm worried about messing up the paintjob
>>97161936>he doesn't know
>>97162019Eladrith Ynneas
>>97162091What am I supposed to know that I apparently don't?
Halfway to xmas and no reveals yet
>>97161618Orks,specifically the tiny grots and gretchlings
>>97162117He's going to tell you something deranged like deathwatch are being squatted in 11th but will provide no evidence supporting it and when asked for it he will deflect and call you a slur/retarded or claim that he doesn't need to spoonfeed you or just say he doesn't know again. There, saved you 30 minutes of back and forth
>>97162133This is such an odd answer>>97162076go play fetch with a grenade
>>97161961
>>97161889Christ alive, this site really has been stuck in stasis for 9 years, hasn't it?
>>97162140I mean the army is just space marines with a specific shoulder pad so even if that happens I'll just run it as a regular marine army
>>97161916playing nids has felt ass the entire edition
>>97162154You're not supposed to have fun playing nids you're supposed to have fun building and painting them.
Why do women love Nids so much?
>>97161618Do you mean literally or shitpostily? Dark angels and emperor's children and death guard and space wolves all have a lot of competition for that title. Orks are all male but apparently no sex.
>>97162154It really has, goddammit. How did we get so many new units and nearly all of them are fucking worthless?
>check to see if Celestial Lions had any sort of weapon/gear gimmick out of the ordinary >every character listed is KIA>most of their ships were destroyed, one of them crashing into another SM shipDamn
oh no i've been captured by daemonettes again oh noo i hope the other guardsmen save me aha
>>97162191Cute little bug doggos and hecking dog and horse cock guns. Also it's not some big gay spaceman that someone will tell her she painted it wrong, or didnt drill the barrel, or gave a normal dude a sergeant head, or put the shoulder pad on the wrong arm or basically anything else that 40k fags like to harp on each other for.

>>97162334No anon. You can't shift your butthurt away. Using other pain to disguise your pain doesn't work.
>>97162342What are you on about anon?

>>97162381>>97162364>>97162371Odd behavior tonight

>>97162382He's larping as an upset chink
>>97162410But what about before UK?
the chink is exposed
>>97162407No one asked for your input faggot
The game awards are boring to watch, someone let me know if anything related to warhammer gets announced when I wake up from my nap in 12 hours.
>>97162382One anon says he posted that pic deliberately to upset other anons and the other anon is going on some meltdown overue5slop but the first anon is dissatisfied at level of buttpain so he's asking for more.
>>97162368Chinks love Africans. They visit their islands for sex all the time.
>>97162425>sleeping through the inevitable HL3 announcementngmi
>>97162410>https://www.sovereigngroup.com/news/hong-kong-south-africas-gateway-to-doing-business-in-china/Interesting. So the Celestial Lions are GW's secret way to represent Hong Kong as a bridge between Africa & China. I knew GW founders read history but I didn't expect this.
>>97162425I hope total war aos for the sole purpose of getting rid of valrik
>>97162425It'll be Space Marine 3 teaser and Total War 40k.
Orks have already won 40k.
>>97162446CA doesn't have the money to eat the sort of failure TWAoS would be.
Nier: Pragmata
>>97162446Me too.
>>97162455Total war 40k makes no sense as a game by itself or in the greater context of DOW4 existing
>>97162463Good. CA deserves punishment for their actions too.
>>97162463Failure? It would be the first time CA would make a good time since they announced warhammer.
>>97162463It would be the same game with a few new units
>>97162463>CA dies>Valrak channel goneDon't threaten me with a good time
>>97162495valrak is a known liar, he never lives up to his word.
>>97162495MUH ECELEBS
Are regular chaos marines worth playing or are the legion specific marines better? Seems like if you want to play a specific way, one of the four will do it better than the generic chaos codex.
>>97162463It would be a way better game than 40k that engine can barely handle musket units lets alone a game that's primarily machine guns and lasers
>>97162514Which codex are you using? In the Chaos Marine Codex, basic chaos marines are pretty decent thanks to the KT upgrade sprue, the NL KT marines are really strong. Cult marines aren't as good in CSM. The 4 legion books don't have basic chaos marines in them
There is a 100% chance of the thread being intolerable for the rest of the night due to /v/ raiders. See yall tomorrow
>>97162463I've said this before many times but while 40k works in an RTS, tons of fans picked up 40k because of DoW, the style of Total War just doesn't fit. From adapting space battles and galactic traversal to a single map based system full of settlements and systems that would be BROKEN by drop pods and orbital bombing, it's a mess. Even the gunplay is more about cover than formations. Dawn of War or even a Halo Wars style? I get. Total War? No.
>>97162551Not to mention unit balance. You'd need regiments of 200 Guardsmen yet only 3 Custodes to counter it.
>>97162551>space battles and galactic traversalthat's not actually 40k. 40k is a small scale skirmish game with ranged and melee units smashing into each other.
>>97162562That works for Dawn of War or even Halo Wars where campaign missions handle all that offscreen but in Total War, overworld traversal is a massive part. Researching technologies, recruitment, armybuilding, etc. Given auto-resolve, it's easy to argue it's MORE important than the actual army vs army fights. This is all the more reason I find 40k to be unsuited to Total War's specific RTS style.
>>97162463Failure? It would dwarf the flop that is the old world in terms of players easily
Screw Total War. You want to do big scale 40k battles in a video game? Do a Battlefront clone.
>>97162597Battlefront hasn’t been good since classic Battlefront 2
>>97162644That shouldn't stop 40k from doing the formula right. We've already got successful third person action games like Space Marine.
>>97162654>That shouldn't stop 40k from doing the formula rightWarhammer hasnt defined any genres for any games and they never will because their fans are attracted to ip sloppa rather than decent games.
>>97162660Which means 40k can mess up and still make bank. This just means our odds of succeeding are greater.
>>97162660Darktide is infinitely better than l4d ever was
>>97162644i thought the one that was set in WW1 was good desu. in fact i think it is the best battlefield game.a 40k battlefield game sounds good but for some reason game devs are shit at making 40k based games, with the exception being the tide games.
>>97162660Warhammer 40,000 has never ever been about the games. Games Workshop entire industry is based on creating baubles.
I am sad because I do not have this much painting skill.
>>97162664darktide has all of the advantages of being released 13 years after l4d2 brev
it's time for me to sell all my models. I can not longer enjoy the hobby (painting. I don't play) so I want to get rid of all my shame. where is the best place to sell four complete armies and get something for them?
>>97162671Irrelevant
>>97162670this is a very easy paintjob and can be done by using a picture reference on your monitor. the colours aren't even glazed or wet blended>>97162675>let's commission a new 40k tide game from fatshark>use a modern engine and devtools?>no, no port left for dead 2 and just change the setting and modelsthoughts of the truly deranged
>>97162670This is purely knowledge of where to place different shades. No advanced brush control or blending was used, very harsh borders between colors.So you can just look up reference pictures for how metals look in this style and reproduce it without much training beforehand.
>>97162670this thing will look like absolute ass from any other angle
Do other races have funfairs?
>>97162720ofcourse
>>97162689Come on bro that takes some serious skills to pull off.
>>97161618Definitely space yiffs
>>97161762Just because space wolves lust after them doesn't make it reciprocal, anon
>>97161878Finally, accurate representation of trans women!
>>97162019Fartsmeldar, lmao gottem!
Alright I thickened up the chest plate a bit, and added a nice coin-chain tchotchke to balance out the negative space.
>>97161841Super good paint job anon.But also...
>>97162872Nice, he looks proper menacing, what traitors are you doing?
Cute Eldar boy feet
>>97162886You got something against proboscis, nigger?
Is Ollanius Pius still canon
>>97162927Yes and no. Abnett tried to write a passage about how legends and lies soldiers tell each other get out of hand which was an obvious reference to Ollanius Pius but people hated it so much that he had a another character with a similar name act out the role. It could have been the plan from the start, but it’s easy to interpret it as a course correction considering the time between the passages. I wouldn’t be surprised if originally it was John Grammaticus that was supposed to stand between the Emperor and Horus alone.
>>97162961After he left the Army Ollanius moved to Hilton Head Island. His great-great-grandson was named... jerome blake..

Well, there it is. TTW40k is real.
TOTAL WAR 40k!!!!!!!!
This general is about to get even worse for years now
Not sure if I should be grateful about the thread being dead. Anyways I’m gonna grab some wolf bristle brushes, curious if anyone has had issues with them.

>>97163182Isn't Chaos always the """twist""" villain?
>>97163182Chaos will be FLC just like in TWW1 and will spend the next 5 years being shat on by the devs. Uh, guess you were right.
>>97163182Gotta wait for Total War: Warhammer 40k 3 for the Chaos faction
>>97163182>>97163198Does this mean Eldar and Orks are natural allies in game? That's how they split TWW1, which would be weird in this instance unless they make orcs stupid OP so the other 3 factions can ally without completely borking balance.
>ultramarines>cadians>bad moons>ulthwe
Sincerely, even if I give it the benefit of the doubt that it's pre alpha, this looks dreadful. I'd sooner spend money on a terrorist attack on CA than spend money on this game.
>>97163212>That GuardsmanShiieeeeet
>>97163182>>SM>>GuardWhy two Imperial ones that early? It's more believable for Empire and Dwarfs to go to war than randomly IG fight SM.>>97163213Am I the only one who mistook that for a mobile game?
Yep, Calgar legendary lord confirmed.

>>97163213>Ayyylmaodar are a main faction I'm unironically buying it day one for the same reason I won't touch DoW4
>>97163211it's ulthwe so they'll probably just manipulate the orks against the imperium before backstabbing them in the end
>>97163213They have to find a way to cram it on PS5 and Xbox.
guard are such an odd choice for a 4th. you'd think they'd choose the popular factions for a launch.
I already put like 1000 hours into tww3, not touching 40k tww, period. No fucking way ca can actually make a game thats satifyiing anymore, and I already disliked the map and combat from that one still image. Id rather play the old republic or ace combat.
>>97163227Yes, unless you're traitor guard, renegades, or something that's not them randomly fighting each other for shits and giggles.
>>97163229Based and same.The Eldar are the best race in 40k.

their website confirms no Chaos, but also says every faction will be in eventually
So what's the "wtf 1 marine is supposed to be so super duper awesome they can kill 1 million twoops on their own" cope for this game?
>>97163273>imperial infightingYou think fights between IG and Marines happens that much especially in an alliance system like TW?
I'll play it after it's been out a couple of years, if it's good.
>>97163273>imperial infighting is a key cornerstone of the settingYeah I'm sure it's not one-off cases but whole wars on a daily basis
>>97163221Dawn of war 1 has guard fighting marines over clashing orders you troglodyte
Oh god it’s made with consoles in mind, I have no fucking expectations for this game now. Might as well be gladius or that other warhammer 40k rts that no one plays.
>>97163212What kind of Xenos is the second one supposed to be?
>>97163276Of couse it will. DLC faction packs is CA's bread and butter after all.
Tau doko?
>imperial infighting is a key cornerstone of the settingI remember that time a loyalist Astartes chapter declared war on Terra too.
>>97163271CA aren't going to be losing any money off of this. 40kiddies are easily parted with their money as is and will be buying this shit like it's going out of fashion.
>>97163286Yes it's extremely common for extremely petty reasons in the imperiumThis has been how they have explained mirror matches on the tabletop for longer than you've been alive
>>97163273>>97163289Newfag, you don't get it. They're talking about the scale that Total War operates. Attacking altogether is a declaration of war and not an isolated instance. It's the Guard, not the Inquisition.
>>97163286Unironically yes, that's exactly the case. 40k is designed explicitly so that can happen regularly enough to justify all the team killing match ups.
>>97163306You're the only newfag here tourist-kunDon't try to larp about things you know nothing about now run along back to >>>/v/
>>97163305>>97163308Newfag...
>>97163305>>97163308Unironically no. In TW, it would carry massive diplomatic changes in the most extreme ways. Not just a single regiment declared traitor.
>>97163306So they break the guard up into a bunch of mini factions like the empire in TWWH. Can still work fine.
>>97163319we don't give a shit about your babbyshit video game
>>97163315No anon, it's nothing like that. Total War deals in whole factions and subfactions in a way that isolated incidents aren't isolated.
>>97163308>40k is designed explicitly so that can happen regularly enough to justify all the team killing match ups.Yeah one side goes renegade. Not both sides are loyalist like GK purging's every hour. Especially cuz clearly those are Ultras
>>97163326You're getting singular guard regiments vs single companies of marines dumb fucking tourist
>TW40k has custom factions as well as set subfactionsBros...It has /your dudes/...
>>97163322>So they break the guard up into a bunch of mini factions like the empire in TWWH>CAThey would TOTALLY make Krieg, Catachan, and every other IG regiment.
>>97163322>>97163324Newfag, those are Ultramarines. Not Marines Malevolent or anything like that.
>>97163329>Yeah one side goes renegadeNope!>>97163334Yeah you toddlers can finally make your black and red donut steel guard regiments without having to learn a skill!

>>97163330>>97163344I don't know where this guy came from but the fact that he's defending this travesty's choices suggests he's not from here. The idea of 40K being unfit for TW has been discussed many times here.

>/mydudes/After Daniel? Oh no. This will be horrible
>>97163356>I'm not defending your vidyaslop>muh CA choices r gud
>>97163357Daniel sucked because he was in a shit faction, not for being customizable.
>>97163351>>97163356Newfag. You haven't addressed anything about the wide scale TW does. This isn't singular regiments or disagreements.

The incoming secondaries are going to destroy us
>>97163376They're already throwing fits ITT because they didn't know the imperium is full of infighting
I would've taken Tamriel over this

>>97163376Tertiaries are here. They never touched a single mini nor have they ever touched a single video game.

At least this means fantasy dies for good
You guys hyped to command massive armies of dozens of space marines?
>>97163144This makes sense for boards like /vt/ but how do you 'gatekeep' large corporations making videogames out of their properties? Infiltrate the corpo, rank up and ban it from doing that?
>>97163397That's lore accurate.
>>97163397Not after realizing this game was made for consoles in mind.
>>97163387The typical Imperial practically worships the ground they're on. Sure, there's occasionally infighting but the vast majority of the time it's not. He'll, the IG doesn't even fight the playable xenos besudes Orks as often as rebels or no name xenos with barely modern day tech.
>>971633821991. Battle of 73 Easting.one of the battles Pius is said to have fought in
>>97163401Anything for our console brothers
>>97163397I like how they didn't show the overworld map,
>>97163213If it comes out in 2027 it's a coinflip whether I buy it because holy fuck the first game came out when I was in college and I am getting old. Not as only as most of oyu guys but you know.
>>97163397No because that just looks like Dawn of War. I dont care about the size, thats how they should be elites.
>>97163412its at the end lol with the planets

>>97163397I'm not digging the color pallet. I hope it's better in the future.
>i-is that loyalist guard vs loyalist marines on the tabletop???>D-dont they know that's not possible in my video game canon???
>>97163213Are you offering? I might be tempted to Allahu for a historical TW....
>>97163415>>97163417Halo Wars handles Spartans alright in that they're all Hero units or super rare units. They didn't suffer as badly from >>97162560 but this will be unavoidable.
>>97163421This looks like a bad mobile game. Watch the scene that screen is taken from. That Killa Kan/Dread is being flamed and to die it literally falls backwards like it's suplexed by a specter lmao.
>>97163276Literally the same thing happened with TWW1 and Chaos Warriors were the first DLC given for free with pre-order with Empire, High Elves, Dwarfs, and Orcs as the base 4 factions. Same shit will happen
>>97163424Anon, 40k is a game where virtually any faction can fight each other but you're being extremely obtuse. For every time a Grey Knight needs blood from a SoB, you're making it look like it's every day. The game should be set in the Age of Strife but I doubt they'd do that because GW would push Primaris.

>before game awards>1.39 posts per min>tw40k confirmed>1.05 posts per minCertainly not what I would've assumed, but it seems like most of the regulars are waiting out the storm and the only people in the thread are tertiarys arguing with each other
>>97163438>>97163439Good point. Another thing I'd add is the way Total War cam play would make allying and diplomacy practically nonexistent. In WHFB, there's factions that can at least get along or temporarily agree to not fight. Empire is allied with Dwarfs and HElves but they can agree to ally with Bretonnia. In more than the MMO, Dark Elves teamed up with Chaos Warlords. Ogres are mercs hireable by anyone and Skaven once teamed up with Nagash, however temporary. But the average Imperial will shoot Xenos on sight.Honestly, my hope they make Imperial Guard include Inquisitors to give some excuse for a radical Inquisitor negotiating with Eldar or throwing a bag of teef to Orks. Otherwise a major mechanic might as well be gone. It may justify fighting Marines too because the average IG regiment would never fight the Emperor's angels.
>>97163459>Otherwise a major mechanic might as well be gone.That's the biggest opposition some anons past gave. The sheer changes to do 40k accuracy would mean that.
>Ultramarines 3rd Company shown in the trailerDamn I thought the Crimson Fists were gonna get some love lmao. Surely they have something nice lined up for the OG boys in 2027…..
Ignore the blogger secondary. His every accusation is a confession.
How about that tabletop game right? Finally got to meet double victrix plus Calgar and super friends. Fucking hell army wide -1 to wound on 2+ save bodies is a real kick in the cock.
I have less hopes for the new total war than I did for DoW3
It will be funny if you can take pretty much an entire chapter into battle at one time (and get them all killed).
Dear anyone who asked for this.You waited years and gaslit yourself for this over and over and over and you finally get what you want and its shit. Its utter shit. Its literally worse than DoW3 and you have no recourse except to cope and hope against all reason that it'll somehow be good.They're going to force this game to run on consoles.The AI will stand in the open and stare without even counterattacking while you hammer it with heavy artillery.Melee focused units will stand and let you shoot them and ranged focused units will charge into melee and die like lemmings.Your entire suite of tactical options in battle will be>frontline charge>flank>use artillery/air support>take cover (only works 25% of the time)It will take them months to fix half of these issues while the game's sales flatline because its literally a worse DoW for 80 dollars on release.The entire project will be cancelled halfway through game 2's development.Wait and see.

>>97163479>Your entire suite of tactical options in battle will be>>frontline charge>>flank>>use artillery/air support>>take cover (only works 25% of the time)My biggest question is how the overworld will be. Total War is INFAMOUS for fans demanding naval battles that never come. Naval fights in gameplay are entirely auto-resolve. So what will the overworld be? If there's any travel between planets, will it be the same 0 gameplay auto-resolve? How will it handle stance systems like ambushes and hiding? If singular planets and settlements, even so I'd ask how it's balanced around factions that easily drop units on the other side of the planet in the middle of enemy territory.
It looks worse than the AI shitposting from a week ago. What a fucking disaster hahaha

>>97163592and it's still going to sell incredibly well. Even though people are shit talking it now, most will cave and buy it once it comes out
>>97163592>>97163601>>>/v/
>>97163601Depending on how bad reception is, for all we know it can be another DoW3.
>>97163603I respect your schizo commitment to the board anon. I really do…
>>97163592I think that it is pretty fair to be sceptical of it given the little what we have seen of it and the alarming fact that they are planning on making it with consoles on mind. Until I see clips of actual gameplay longer than few seconds and proper elaboration on how the game is supposed to work, I will be very skeptical of the game.
>>97163564He largely does it to piss people off since nobody actually likes Voidscarred or any of this other trash.
This game must be the best advertisement for DoW4 or even 3 I've ever seen.
>>97163601If it’s worth playing I’ll buy it when it’s 80% off for the 3rd game. If it doesn’t get canned.
>>97163614I doubt anything we saw was even really gameplay, smelled like a lot of smoke and mirrors to me. Like one of those vertical slice presentations they put on a couple weeks after their anniversary presentation where they know a lot of investor's eyes will be watching. The UI wasn't even functional, none of the info on the unit cards updated during battle and the new squad that got deployed via drop pod did not get added to the unit cards, so it's definitely edited together.
>>97163637Yeah, that is probably correct. And I cannot emphasise enough how much of a red flag it is that they are making it for consoles as well.There are absolutely NO good strategy games on consoles and every strategy game that has been made with both PC and consoles in mind has suffered immensely for being designed for consoles as well.
>>97163625Total War is more about empire building, DoW is about fast paced RTS so they're not really competitors here.
>>97163667True but the gameplay here looks like a bootleg DoW. And how will all the empire building work here? Maybe the ships are like Dark Elf Black Ark mobile settlements or we're a horde army. I'm just waiting for what excuse they'd give for being unable to drop pods right into enemy territory or behind enemy lines or any other thing doable everywhere in 40k but would be a massive game breaker for a settlement-based empire building overworld.
It's going to be real funny when the Dark Eldar are DLC before their refresh happens
It looks so ass. It looks like DoW2/3 on tiny maps. Even CoH1 had bigger maps, especially ones with bridges. Just the fact that they'll launch with less factions than DoW1 too. I know it's pre-Alpha but it looks so bad.>>97163637Seconded, the UI looks super fake. No wonder it's 10 sec only because if it's this fake in 10 seconds, there's no way people looking at it for 15 seconds wouldn't tell.
>>97163673I miss Command and Conquer. I want more Red Alert.

>>97163690It is very unlikely that the Dark Eldar refresh is going to alter their looks in any major way given how much sovl Jes poured into the uplift they got in the last refresh.

>>97163676>bootleg dowIt's not though. DoW is smaller scale squad based base building. You can't build bases in total war games.What actually looks like is happening is that each planet is a 'city' or 'province' similar to the normal map. The logo also shows the imperium divided into 5 sectors, so they might be releasing 5 games/1 game 4 major expansions for each of the segmentums in order to compartmentalize the game.>the shipsThere will be no ship combat as CA hates naval combat, even if it's in space>drop podsWill be a button you click and your guys drop where you ordered, but the AI will be aware of it and expertly dodge any splash damage like already happens in TWW3 when you try to blast them with magic.

>>97163213>even if I give it the benefit of the doubt that it's pre alphaIf you knew anything about creative disassembly you'd know how inept they are unless something has changed. They never even fixed the campaign balance or added a slider for it in total war warhammer so every order campaign was automatically dogshit because it was too easy. I don't think this glorified asset swap studio can handle 40k but then again there are like 1-2 half decent 40k games so this isn't news.
>>97163765>>drop pods>Will be a button you click and your guys drop where you ordered, but the AI will be aware of it and expertly dodge any splash damage like already happens in TWW3 when you try to blast them with magic.That's going to be helpful when I deploy a whole new army on their capital city behind walls while the garrison isn't expecting or into enemy territory but not onto an enemy army and basically spawn a new army right there.

>>97163765>CA hates naval combatI dont blame them.I love the idea of naval combat but not many games do a good job of making it fun.The only ones that stand out imo as thoroughly enjoyable space navy games is Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock, and Owlcat's Rogue Trader crpg space battle minigame.I do have high hopes for Falling Frontier.

Despite this, the hills were swarming with Guardsmen.""But that's from M36" - Well why can't it happen now? Modern day Bucharis claims Gullyboat is corrupted by the Xenos, they are the truer purer imperium. Minute you start a campaign the pre-existing status quo will go out the window. Since of course it does, otherwise you can't lose Ultramar or you can't defeat Ulthwe and it all goes on rails.
>>97163903Will you shut the fuck up?
>>97163907And who are you to demand such from me?
>>97163856Low key your stuff makes me wanna do a panel liner army. Maybe wraith constructs or something. I've always wanted a revenant
>>97163892>Any Space Marine Chapter can elect to pull a Badab War or decide they need to secede or go to chaos or whatever.NTA but that's one hell of a big decision that isn't so easily reversible. It makes the Norsca choice of attacking Archaon and hijacking his role as Everchosen look small because at least that's still on the same side as a coup with the same goal but choosing to fulfill it yourself. Not even the Inquisition gets away with exterminatusing everything and remaining loyalist, especially if doing a canon chapter, will get you disowned by the Imperium. Also, the Sword of Khaine is a highly unique situation where technically anyone can but as a last ditch desperation move much like both Aenarion and ET Tyrion two steps from as big as needing to Exterminatus Terra. It's not something people do on a normal basis even if death is the alternative.
I do not care for fantasy battle lore. Please shut up.
>>97163918An anonymous poster. Will you shut the fuck up now?
I look forward to pic more than total war.
>>97163925>It makes the Norsca choice of attacking Archaon and hijacking his role as Everchosen>mfw there's the option of raping Abaddon and replacing himThe one thing I look forward to.
>>97163934Holy shit, that’s where I’m at with this game now. I’m excited for a fucking vampire survivors clone more than fucking total war. Ca has fucking let themselves go.
>>97163933You have no authority here nomodels. I suggest you go back to your recess before you get hurt.
>>97163925Marines fight all the time, I'm pretty sure the lamenters have fought other Marine chapters like 3 times now. Minotaurs like consistently across the timeline were fighting other chapters to the point of almost fully erasing multiple chapters by the order of the high lords of terra
>>97163535>LoGH imageWasn't expecting that and you got my noggin' joggin' about the 40k space navy and LoGH's take on space ship warfare.Generally does the Warhammer 40k Imperial Navy utilize stuff like space ship formations? Or is it all just space ship dogfights in the vacuum of space hoping that numbers win everything?
>>97163925It's not quite to your norsca example but as far as I recall when I start up a campaign as any of the various WoC or monogod personalities I can go try and smack Archaon in the face. I believe I can smack Archaon without any kind of mechanic whatsoever as minor norscan factions, although that might be an oversight by CA/modders. Still, the principle is the same and you can think of other uncanonical situations you can get into with WHF just as in 40k. Just think about all the cases of near misses, high tension (Ork snipers with the Celestial Lions, various standoffs with the space wolves) and now you're dealing with a timeline where cooler heads did not prevail. I can easily imagine a timeline where Rouboute's counter-coup didn't pull off in time/efficiently and now the empire is split apart with a new heresy. Or where Belisarius' Cawl's Primaris shit caused a schism (or compounded the counter-coup failure and gave chapters reasons to turn against the Primarch). Or where Rouboute decided to be an autistic shit and harass Black Templars for not obeying space book and whoops now they're rebelling in that classic "good tzar bad boyar" situation - clearly the emperor is right it's just that disobedient Primarch who is wrong. Wouldn't be the first time!>"How would any chapters or guards side against one of the emperor's primarch angels reborn?"I mean nine turned against the emperor himself! Lot more severe than turning against his angels! And there by the grace of god did some of the others not turn and there by the grace of god did some of those turn against him. There's just no reason why it can't happen again with smaller legions.
>>97163966Smaller chapters* I promise I'm not a Tzeentchian agent cross my fingers that means I'm being honest right?
>no evil factions at launch unless orks count, prepare for CA jewery of unseen levels than before>the battle maps are all literally corridors like siege maps from the screenshots on steam>console slop>no space battles>map is literally just planets with 1 turn travel time between planet(settlement)yeah, this looks like garbage

>>97163966>Belisarius' Cawl's Primaris shit caused a schism (or compounded the counter-coup failure and gave chapters reasons to turn against the Primarch)Every chapter that had the slightest bit of apprehension for primaris written about them in the primaris launch of 8th had them accepting and thankful for the reinforcement by the end of the edition
>>97164001I mean, calling them a retard isnt really a nice thing to do. Why not apologies instead and maybe we can move on together?
>>97163971Based
I wish for a 40k Gihren's greed instead.
>>97164001>already insulting model postersTsk tsk tsk
Not sure if it has been posted already, but here's the trailer for 40k Total War. It looks really cool, never been super interested about games like this but I might buy it to to try at least.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeCItSg-wmI
>>97164023you’re a retard
>>97164023Ignore that other poster. I think its cool too
>>97164026I saw the above stuff, I mostly meant the trailer.
>>97164001How about you go digging under your sink for the bottle with the most amount of funny shaped symbols on it and drink as much as you can before your handler gets home. So far today you've posted 226 times. As annoying as /v/ermin are, they would each need to make on average 60-123 times the amount of posts they have to be as bad as you. You also need to stop this gross behaviour of assuming every person interacting with you is a woman, especially when you've hit on every single person you thought might be a woman here already.
>>97164031>Archivefaggotry
>>97164008The point is that had 40kTW dropped when 8th edition was happening things could have turned out different. The same way the ork snipers shit or times someone butted heads with the space wolves was in the past. Total war is about 'what ifs'. I swear with people online it's like the fucking>but I did eat breakfast this morningwith how they can't comprehend hypotheticals. >Just think about all the cases of near misses, high tension....now you're dealing with a timeline where cooler heads did not prevail. So in this campaign when you start turn one you are engaging in situations where cooler heads did not prevail. The reason a civil war didn't emerge from those litany of tense situations in the past was GW was decreeing the canon. GW gives CA the carte blanche in design such that when your campaign starts now GW is not playing the hand of fate and deciding those near-misses were near-misses. So now when there's a spat between the inquisitors and chapter X, or chapter Y and Chapter Z, there is no GW decreeing "But of course they pulled back from the brink". This time they go fuck the police and launch into open conflict with one another because daddy GW isn't holding a nigga back. Again Total war is about the what ifs, not simply rote retelling of events with no chance to deviate.
>>97164042Total war is about what ifs.40k is about what dids.The branding is too important, there is no room for fancanon outside the tiny amount of wiggle room required to shove /yourdudes/ in. Total war is not making the decisions of what they're allowed to do with GWs ip like they could with the dead universe of fantasy. This is the same reason why blood ravens were made up for Dawn of War, because gw does not let other people make decisions about their product
In my unpopular opinion, gravity and black hole themed weapons should incur movement penalties or rules simulating being slowed down because the target is facing time dilation.
>>97164023>>97163144Based on the timing I always imagined the trailer would start black then fade to Total War Warhammer 4 and hold on that image for a bit before the font changes then zeros start appearing.
>>97164039Only people who are mad about others using the archive are the ones who don't want their past shitty behaviour highlighted.The archive is good because it exposes patterns.
>>97164032Neck yourself chaser, the thread would celebrate like we won ww2
>>97164061This. It's a shockingly obvious giveaway, and you tend to be able to find out how mad they are by how many times they samefag Ăżour archivepost
>>97164001>Im not doing anything YOU LITERALLY TOLD PEOPLE TO KILL THEMSELVES 3 POSTS BEFOREARE YOU THAT DENSE?
>>97164055>because gw does not let other people make decisions about their productNta, but fair.But GW could just consider those game scenarios basically just as non-canon "what if" scenarios.Even in Total War 3, you can play as Skarbrand where you kill Ursun the bear god of the Kislev and then offer its skull to Khorne.
Was looking at Harlequins on waha because I thought it'd be nice to make them balatro, but uhhhwhy is every single model on 25mm bases? why are they so SMALL
>>97164032See that was not nice of you either.
>>97164001>Im not doing anythingYou told others to kill themselves here because they don't like you for being a ban evading dickhead >>97163903
how do you guys muster up the motivation to paint when you have none ?
>>97164097Motivation is a spook. You just sit down and paint.
>>97164086I think harlies came out before the 28.5mm was made, so it was 25 or 32 and elves on 32 look incredibly silly.
>>97164086They're gymnasts, they have to be small to appear slender and lithe when put next to humans. They're also pretty old, and could easily see a rebasing in 11th if gw cares enough about them.
>>97164099For real, if you wait for "motivation" to do everything in life you will never finish anything. Now waiting for milliput to dry, thats a whole nother level of excuse.
>>97164097Pretend you're doing it for your lady's painting.
>>97164097I pound a red bull and put the Darktide OST on loop.https://youtu.be/Ni3CazygOh4?si=4NCZYpYH3QDIoSX3
>>97164097You reject your flesh and take power over your mind. Sit down and apply paint to a brush and begin. Its that simple.
>>97164097>motivation
>>97164117Judiciar has arrived.
>>97164097You sit down, put paint on your brush. Then at that moment you have to decide>do I rinse this paint off and waste it for no reasonOR>do I do a couple basecoatsThis only works by putting the paint on the brush, wet palettes you can just close and not feel any guilt about cause it'll stay good for a bit. If you ever rinse your brush before painting anything, remind yourself that you're being a retarded weak faggot for avoiding your hobby that you like. Before rinsing your brush, draw a tally mark on a piece of paper towel with the paint. Repeat this every other day until you start painting again or have skipped a month of painting. If you skip a full month of painting while doing this then congrats, you don't like this hobby at the moment, and now you know you can take a break, because it isn't giving you the satisfaction you need.
>>97164061It's also good because I keep on seeing revisionism everywhere.>We liked this when it first came out>We hated this when it first came outCrap like that getting exposed by proof.
>>97163988>>97164055Wait a moment, with these two together, does this mean there won't be any chances to BTFO canon characters or do extra creative scenarios like punching out Abaddon like Archaon and replacing him?
>>97164061Listening to you fags try to shame other people on an anonymous imageboard is honestly the most enraging thing about this general.You've totally missed the point of 4chan.
>>97164191NTA but I'm sick enough of people trying to rewrite the past that I sometimes keep a collection of archives and old threads elsewhere for the sole purpose of preparing for when people get revisionist.
>>97164158>No Chaos on launchBut why, though?
>>97164209Remember how unpopular that move was in Total War Warhammer 1? They're doing it again.
>>97164187No. Definitely not
What kind of abhuman is this?
>>97164226The game isn't out yet and I already find it stale and dull.
>>97164209The faction selection is basic af. I hate it
>>97164227The kind that makes my penis hard when I think of his females.
>>97164231I don't even get why Space Marines and Guard both. First game and double Imperials? Is Guard that much more popular than Chaos armies or the rest of the Xenos? If I assume a devious plan, it's them preparing Guard models to reuse, along with Marine models and imported WHFB Daemon models for Chaos, but otherwise it's a bizarre choice.
>>97163825post models (Space Marines are not models, btw)
>>97164199I save pretty much anything where people are shitting on peoples models while posting their own or if ive seen someone use the same shitpost script 2-3 times. Makes it easy to know who to ignore without having to occupy space in your brain. Also is a nice place to put the funnier memes like the origin of the blue backpack panel on o&tanons dudes
>>97164209Easy DLC money of course
>>97164209Because nobody likes or wants chaos in this shit. They are still going to shoe horn it in again somehow because the chaosfags working at GW will throw a hissy fit if they can't shove their cringy Morecock rip off into the game.
>>97164228Now you know why we make fun of /v/ here. You should buy a starter set of models or go in for the free paint lesson and marine at your local gw and paint a dude instead
>>97164143Your hobby is painting?
>>97164268By TT games played data, Chaos is the second most played army after Marines.
>>97164209Loyalty is its own reward.
>>97164268>Because nobody likes or wants chaos in this shit.
>>97163988Just the fact that Calgar appears is enough to make me think this won't be another DoW style story where any side can have their own ending. At minimum there's no way to kill Calgar in a spin off video game.
>>97164283Don't say nonsense. Vect himself was playable in Soulstorm. You blow him up, but he manages to escape.
>>97164295This is how I Dreadnought.
>>97164272Yeah. Every couple months I'll get together with some friends and throw some dice, usually warcry. But I try and sit down to do a couple brush strokes every couple days, and if I'm actually in the mood to paint then I'll just end up painting. You only really have to be nasty with yourself like I was saying before if you know you are avoiding your painting on purpose. If you're busy, or actually enjoying doing other stuff and not just killing time then that's fine. It's when you're looking at a project and you go "Oh fuck I really don't want to do that" that you really need to push through it, even in baby steps. If you sit there for too long you forget what parts of painting your comfortable with, and just remember how hard the next step is. I think that's how army projects end up getting set aside, because you get in to the one hard step and pause there, and then that projects most recent memory in your head is that you stopped because it was hard.
>>97163397>Pr*marisIt's dead.
>>97164275NTA - and I can see Chaos not being present on launch as just a silly ploy to sell DLC to secondaries - but at the same time "Chaos" is not an army and collecting it all under one hat is kind of silly
>>97163702I could have said the same for space marines.
>total war>console readyOh christ it's going to be mobile game tier isnt it
I find it funny that both DoW4 and this use the old drop por with the guns and long doors. They also use gravis Calgar even after GW squatted him. No other gravis in sight which is a welcome surprise. Hope you can customize your regiments so it's not just recolored cadians and that you can make marines firstborn.
>>97164353It's going to be below mobile game level.
>>97164275Not because people like Chaos, but because they are yet another flavor of marines.
>>97164227subhomo neander
>>97164353despite the total war tagline, it's actually halo wars
>>97164228This post is extremely low quality.
>>97164363Krieg will be DLC
>>97164363Regular gravis marines will be added in DLC. Same with terminator Calgar, he'll also be DLC.
>>97164382Doesn't look like it plays like Halo Wars though. No basebuilding, no leader powers, way more units on screen.
>>97164397Nobody would pay for gravis dlc.
>>97164363I was surprised to see landraiders in the trailer, but the gameplay had a repulsor or some shit
>>97164228This post is extremely high quality.
>>97164407Only classic units there are land raiders and terminators unfortunately. Not even the trusty boxnought.
>>97164405I would, gravis are cool.
I am so disappointed that I would've been less disappointed by pic.
>>97164416Primaris slop aside what's there to be disappointed in, really? My only worry was that they'd keep the static line formations and didn't. There's not enough gameplay to see much else. Environments look great.
>>97164429Console
>>97164429>what's there to be disappointed ineverything, if your interactions with your autistic fixation consists mostly of whining about it
>>97164446And that matters how exactly here?
>>97164452the gameplay will be dumbed down in order to be accessible on a controller as well
>>97164457Dumbed down from what? Total war is slow as fuck and you can even pause the game to issue orders there's nothing that needs to be dumbed down to use a controller.
>>97164457That happened with CoH 3 and got much better with patches once they drop console support.Strategy is pretty bad in consoles.
>>97164464>Dumbed down from what?From mouse and keyboard, you troglodyte, do you think playing with a controller offers the same amount of keys and the same ease of selecting, arranging and looking over units?
>>97164476>Keys>In a total war game
>>97164295I get that first founding chapters have a lot of influence but it seems a little ridiculous for the Inquisition to bust the balls of a chapter like the Black Dragons because of bone growths while the Iron Hands are turning themselves into Necrons
>>97164464>Sure bro, lets make the gameplay slow into an unbearable crawl so that you can pause the game every time you want to flank a unit or pivot a unit to handle charges.Thank God people like you dont make games, with how shitty the current environment already is.
>>97163816I think it's called a Jokaero or something like that.
>>97164533Mate total war has had that for decades already. I think you guys just complain without having any idea about the things you complain about.
>>97164529To be fair Iron Hands also have the Mechanicus backing them. So that does give them a lot of leeway but also ability to cover up shit.But I do get your point, it's weird. Especially concerning how much friendly fire and other unnecessary collateral damage Iron Hands commit on the regular. Like that one time they just basically destroyed like 80-90% of the planets surface, essentially commiting exterminatus on it, literally making the said planet useless for the Imperium going forward.
>>97164537jokaeros are orange, a weird offshoot of the kinebrach is more likely
>>97164554name 3 popular and good rts titles on console right now
>>97164575Move those goalposts further.
>>97164582Sounds like you can't even manoeuvre around an argument, have you considered shifting to mouse and keyboard?
>>97164582
>>97164597Mate you're complaining about them having to add stuff that's already been in those games for decades to be "compatible with controllers" and then you go tell me to list popular rts games in console? The hell has that to do with the topic?
>>97164618>add stuffI said dumb down stuff, not add stuff, retard.
>>97164619And I asked what would be dumbed down and all you answered with was stuff already in the series. Learn to read you moron.
>>97163803>and Owlcat's Rogue Trader crpg space battle minigame.That mini game had no right to be as fun as it was. I honestly liked it more than the actual regular combat in the game.
I wish jannies were real
>>97164618The absence of good RTS games on consoles isn't a coincidence, it's a direct consequence of the controller being terrible for the type of gameplay RTS demand.If you can't understand that it's because you are the one who knows jack shit of what he's talking about and only wants to whine (about reasonable concerns).
>>97164529You'll see most of the bullshit comes from the non-canon RPG.
>>97164633jannies are the ones being terminally online doing the shitposting, why do you think anon has the habit of reverse image/filename searching every single thing that gets posted?
>>97164641They would just delete the posts if they were jannies
We img limitMigr8>>97164639
>>97164636Most rts don't play like total war. They are much more micro intensive and don't allow to slow down time or pause it entirely. Knowing that both of those have been in total war for more than 20 years what exactly would they need to dumb down for controllers?
>>97164645We're not at page 8, throoder, and we're not at image limit
>>97164649Please understand the gooner thread pics must continue.
>>97164649We are now
>>97164649>>97164650Crying too hard
>>97164283How does it work in the other total war warhammer games and named characters? It'll be the same in this one.
>>97164295>The primarch has so much stuff and is so cool and powerfulBoring "my dad is so cool" shit>super secret and powerful technologyWould have been cool if it was the dark mechanicus, here it just stands against the imperium being in a dark age.People forget 40k isn't sci-fi, it's space fantasy, but it's getting less and less fantasy as time goes because normalfags actually don't like fantasy (unless it's a power fantasy isekai with a harem)
>>97164750>it's getting less and less fantasy as time goesThe presence of Chaos has massively expanded, and they are the primary purveyors of fantastical elements.
>>97164750>People forget 40k isn't sci-fi, it's space fantasy, but it's getting less and less fantasy as time goes because normalfags actually don't like fantasy (unless it's a power fantasy isekai with a harem)Good, in a roundabout way, if not in this particular case. 40k being Fantasy in Space has always been one of the most dogshit takes on the settings identity resulting in nothing but slop ideas such as Space Skaven or Old Ones being just FB lizardmen or Hashut in Space and whatnot. Absolute drivel. I am not against introducing more larger fantasy archetypes into 40k, but 40k should absolutely distance itself from AoS/FB as much as possible (especially because AoS is already flirting with those fantasy floating space stations and airship cities).
I think we can all agree that the horus heresy ruined 40k.
>>97164569The entire species is only orange? Says who? That's kinda racist aint it?
