>>97188803>TQ3D Printed Thunder Hawk I mentioned last thread, updates will be slow but they'll arrive
Dumping my Gorgoncon pics. My Iron Hands fought well against White Scars, Death Guard, World Eaters, and a Knight House.
>>97188830
>>97188830Did you kill every single enemy that dared stand against you?
>>97188835
>>97188841I did manage to nearly table the white scars player, but yeah my boys refused to take a single defeat.
>>97188850A poor SW leviathan was outmaneuvered…
>>97188850Well done, Anon.
>>97188856>Blocks your path
>>97188856Key takeaways from my games:-White Scars can buff their Saturnine to move 12”-Let Kharn charge your rapiers, he’ll somehow fail 4 saves from Rhino Bolters when his back is turned-Death Guard Tacticals love rolling double 6s on status tests
>>97188872>mkIV>converted rapiers>kratos with commanderAbsolute soul
>>97188803I told myself it was finally time to stop making centurions and then I bought myself a bunch of fancy bits for making more characters.This veteran tactical sergeant is gonna be hella fly.
>>97188856>somehow still wins
>>97188896anon... i have... some bad news...
>>97188898The knights were shot in the back denying the dreadnought's satisfaction?
>TQMy gift to myself is to find the time to work on what I have and get a game in. --Or an arvus lighter
>>97188925You should be like me and assemble all your models at work by neglecting all of your responsibilities under the nose of overworked and apathetic management!
Apparently you can get tendonitis in your foot. It makes standing to play games a bit difficult.
I was thinking about giving a tactical veteran squad disintegrator rifles and volkite serpentas so I can have the best of both worlds but they don't get to replace their pistols. I was gonna do the same with my praetorians with disintegrator rifles but I ended up using plasma pistols because I had some cool ones and now they have 2 overload weapons like a bunch of retards.
Whoever said that grav weapons suck has clearly never dropped a model on the floor
>>97189198Or gotten crit by a magos grav gun casually dealling 7 AP2 D2 autowounds to a praetorian command squad
>>97188963I always make sure to grab a chair from somewhere. Warhammer isn’t a short game, so take a seat and wait around for a bit, not like it’s your turn anyways.
>>97189198My graviton cannon rapiers have been kicking ass, don't see how AP 3 blasts with Pinning 2 are bad.
>>97188803>trains for the trains god
>>97189781>Doesn't have the uncensored versionFake WE fan.
>>97189793there's no uncensored version
Pics of the new kits are already out there. Here's the new breachers sprue.I'm not posting the new cata because I fucking hate it.
>>97189819Can't wait to use this breacher upgrade sprue on my old plastic Mk III
>>97189819Seems they're still kinda pushing towards using them with MkIII despite it being like a generic upgrade kit with those arms. At least immediately, I don't actually see anything I dislike? Decent source for one-handed bolters.
>>97189854Makes sense. MkIII was created for it and zone mortalis ops before it became trendy among DG and IW tryhards
>>97189819>no meltagun: (
>>97189819Yeah did they just murder the people that made that for the catas. Seriously fuck this bullshit. The weird chopping they did for the mk2/3 is fine because it cuts down on mould lines and doesn’t add too much time to building. These catas are a sprue people would fake as a joke to make fun of that. The body without arms is literally like 15 pieces for no reason lmfao
>>97189854This upgrade kit also seems to serve as a soft redesign since it has heads closely resembling the older mk3 kits in the modern scale
>>97189880Sadly that got taken off the base breacher datasheet. Atp it’s hard not justifying just using the vet variant especially since you can run pf/ lascutters on a ws5 unit
>>97189886>A single thunder hammer
>>97189901>A single AoS-like thunderhammer that no one with taste and respect for HH aesthetics will ever use
>>97188803
>>97189891The nu-MkIII heads were probably the most detracting part for me, these Breacher ones are still derivative with the mohawk vent but they're absolutely an improvement. In any case with >>97189886 also being revealed, the Breachers are the clear winner. Fuck man, all the weapons should be separate and I guess Citadel just loves making shit arbitrarily needing a million fucking parts more than they should.
>>97189886Weapons molded into the ARMS?! WHAT THE FUCK!? I'm going to need to do so much cutting!
>>97189951It's also such a waste of plastic and sprue space. How much more cataphractii could they have fit in the sprue if it didn't have 6+ more arms than was necessary. Literally zero reason to not have the weapons separate, outside of spite and not wanting them to be compatible with other kits.
>>97189819Why is there a breaching charge bit when that piece of wargear no longer exists?
>>97189951Yes so retarded
>>97189886The thunder hammer looks so ugly
>>97189951Could probably chop the maul heads off and replace them with hammer or axe ones, the silver lining of hafted weapons. GW could have probably made these things have interchangeable heads to begin with, but alas.
>>97189981Just play 1.0 or 2.0, they already know 3.0 is over
>>97189854>I don't actually see anything I dislikeThe ugly boltersThe awful heads compared to the resin versionThe fat ugly arm trim.
>>97188803Why did James randomly take away the ability to give everyone in a despoiler squad a heavy chainsword?I liked the idea of a blob of 20 Death Guard Despoilers with rad grenades just IDing everything they come across
>>97189981Because the process from designing to making models takes years. They probably changed their minds about the rules along the way
>>97190020I was hoping that I would just have to buy the volkite chargers for my power fists terminators, but having to buy the arms and possibly shoulder pads as well? This thit better be released as a separate upgrade sprue like the dread weapons.
>>97188830>hillsmy GOD you absolute MADMAN
>>97190072Who knows, they do sell online-only upgrade boxes for some releases like the Saturnine Dread weapon configurations and the Disintegrator weapons, but the Rapiers and Tarantulas were also sold in two different boxes.
>>97189819wait a minute. No spare shield for the sgt, only 8 bolters, so no spare bolters. what is this? On top of the sprue has no melee weapons to build breacher vets, or even one to arm the sgt with a claw or ax.
>>97190130There's 10 bolters in the sprue, and presumably you'll the extra accesories sprue common to all infantry kits
>>97190130>>97190130 There are 10 bolters there, and 10 shieldsThe kit will come with the standard command sprue with the Vox, vex, power sword and powerfist/lightning claw.
>>97189886single hammer. no fists, no claws. A single ax, of all things, and 6 maces, but they removed the nullificators from the game. What kind of fuck up thting is this. Do they expect us to build a squad with 6 maces, 1 ax 1 thunder hammer and 2 dudes with no melee weapons?
>>97190141yeah but 2 are ugly, so they may as well not exist.>>97190143yeah but that sprue comes with no axes or maces, and the claw is only for one hand and you need two to get the +2A and fish for 6's. otherswise the sgt has too few attacks.
>>97190130Nigga there's ten shields and bolters, check again. Needing to go supplying your own melee weapons like with the included marine upgrades per 10 guys or the kit GW sells is not surprising in the least, granted Vet Breachers are Legacies for some reason.
>>97190153all 10 boltguns and shields are indentical, wtf are you talking about Jesse?
>>97190153You can't give a breacher sgnt Twin lightning claws. You fucking moist bint.Listen there is plenty to complain about, stop inventing shit that doesn't exist.
>>97190164don't you see that bend in the wrist on two of them. That is gay and weak. no one holds a gun like that.Not unless they want their wrists broken from micro damage from shoting at boars every night.
>>97190173Probably because the monopose arms are meant to be paired with a given bolter on the sprue, which is also present on the nu-Mks and is annoying.
>complainers once again self report as nogames retards Imagine my shock
Anyone got Liber Strategia scans for Legions Imperialis?
>>97190251Just buy it, bro
>>97190214>Nogames>Nomodels>illiterateThe hallmarks of a trve /hhg/ poster
>>97188856Whyteboi dreads BELONG to BLACK scions> Scion Tarik, House Kutakentay
>>97190279I do have models. They maybe aren't nice looking, but I have models.
>>97188856If it was 2.0 those knights wouldn't have stood a chance.
Nah
>>97188803Is this kit fucking cursed or something. Why is it scaled so fucking strangely
>>97190567>The classic fuckhuge fists fit the new cata well>The nu tiny fists fit the classic cata wellAnd thus, balance
>>97190567It really is just a different, worse torso and helmet, hip plates, and standing slightly straighter holy shit. Nudesign in a nutshell, brilliant advertisement for tortuga bay
>>97189981But it does . . . In Zone Mortalis
>>97190567It looks so stupid lmfao. I should get to recasting the old plastic sprues I still have left in the garage.
>>97190567For that 1 - 2 mm difference in height you're better off putting a bit of plastic card or greenstuff in the waist of the old cata models.Also, why is the nu-cata chest more narrow than the old one? Who signed off on this? It really does look like power armour, rather than terminator armour.
>>97190714DoW3 ahh looking motherfucker
>>97190789I do not know what you are talking about, there has never been a DOW3.
>>97190794and there never will be
>>97190567I’m asking honestly, are the old catas just a superior kit? Also what kit has the best sources for volkite?
>>97191134The real blackpill that both kits suck, just for very different reasons
>>97188876I never understood putting the shoulder pads on the tank commanders. You become too fucking wide for the cupola.
>>97191144I appreciate your feedback. In your opinion what and where is the best kit to purchase regarding Cataphractii?
>>97189945Aye. Pretty much everyone agrees the old mk3 heads are superior, though I do like the spikes for an earlier crusade/reunification vibe you see in old art.
>>97190251Wahapedia guys got you covered via epicheresy iirc
>>97191169NTA, but if you want actually bigger thicker Terminators tortuga bay is your best bet for something that actually looks good.
What oaths of moment are you going to use for /yourdudes/? For mw its Pride is our Armour and Only in death does duty end.
>>97190567That mould like on the fist tho
>>97191398My dudes always have Blade of the Just, then either Only in Death Does Duty End if I'm running the veteran and terminator portion of the army Broken Helix (Clones) if I'm running the mechanized mass troops and tanks portion of the army.
>>97191398DA wargear and something else. Leaning to Reaper but I want to see how bad they hold objectives in the wild first before I finalize that. With how many units with Support Squad I have it certainly incentivizes it.
>>97191395Lore wise do they just have bigger dudes in terminator armor? How does that make sense?
>>97191562Not at all. Terminator models being grossly oversized compared to power armoured marines is purely because of how many marine players are size queens.
>>97191605So in theory terminators should be the same height roughly but should be a lot bulkier to represent the purpose of the terminator armour. Hence thicker and built like a tank.
>>97191619Yeah, the only extra height should be the bulk of the armour extending above the helmet, and maybe more thick soles on the boots.
>stab your praetor at WS10 I6heh nothing personal fleshbag
>>97191646>Getting into combat in 3.0
>>97191646>Stabbing>At only I6
>>97191647unless you're playing on planet bowlingball against a cunt; melee must happen
>>97191673It happens but a lot less than 2.0. Which i'm kind of glad about in some ways.
>Aegis of Pain:>A Unit made up of Models with the Reductor Trait gain bonuses when they have Cybertheurgic Statuses.>All Models in a Unit composed entirely of Models with this Special Rule and the Reductor Trait gain the Fear (1) Special Rule while any model in the Unit also have one or more Cybertheurgic Statuses. If a Unit that includes any Models with this Special Rule already has any variant of the Fear (X) Special Rule, then this Special Rule has no effect and does not stack with or otherwise improve any existing variant of the Fear (X) Special Rule that any Model in the Unit has.i think the meme has spread
>>97191692Seriously? In my experience, with the buffs to transport vehicles and the return of the infamous rhino rush, there is more melee happening than ever. Especially against WS, those fuckers will charge you turn 1 even if you're in your own deployment zone.
>>97191754Must just be a play group thing. I've gone entire games without combat
>>97189901>single thunderhammerLooks like the trick is to just make an oyumaru/bluestuff clone of the thunderhammer head, then you can snip the top off each maul and put 10 thunderhammers in the squad instead of mauls.
>>97192103shame the hammer head is kinda fugly
>>97191395>tortuga bayTroonScales look awful>>97191134They were better in that they were a lot more compatible with like everything else.
>>97190567Jesus Christ please leave Tartarus alone GW
>>97189886>1 axe>1 Sword>1 hammer>6 fucking maulsWhy?
>>97192233Mauls are cool
>>97189886What's part 102?Part of a Chainfist?
>>97192227Anon they are coming for it.
>>97192241Thats what i was thinking but like, thats way to big to be part of a chain fist, its the entire length of a terminator arm.
>>97192240Agreed, however the mauls in the nu-cata kit are not.>>97192250I think it's suppose to be a chain bayonet for the reaper autocannon.
>>97191619wrong. Neither the lore nor logic supports faggots who want short terminators. A terminator suit is built to be able to operate even in vicinity of plasma reactors and extremely caustic bulk chemical carriers and other places where space marine armor would simply fail.If they just have regular space marine shoes, they'd lift a foot to take a step and their foot would get cooked/crushed by the reactor.Actual terminator armor the feet are raised extra inches off the ground compared to a regular space marine, their feet are inside a big armored shell.If you add say 3 inches total size to your feet and 9 inches of armor up above your head in a terminator, you're a full foot taller ordinary power armor. Obviously the freaks like spaceshark mcguffin who are drawn as 5 feet taller than a space marine are just artistic license or abnormal genetic mutants, but all terminators are taller than the average marine is.
>>97190567the god damned triangle headsocket violates their entire design and makes the cataphractii into a sisters of battle unit
>>97192288now we know why the thin hourglass waist, birthing hips and sororitas mauls on the new cataphractii
Another early morning game of Titanicus. The new guy is committing to Audax so he got some dire wolves assembled for the match, I went up against 8 titans, a Lupercal light and a venator light, a dire wolf in each with 3 dogs. We were playing conquest i.e. get across the board to your opponent's table so the advantage was with Audax but I still did pretty good holding them at bay.
