No it looks cheap and space marines look like shit and they already fucking do that you redoing assshole
>TQYes and I'm surprised it isn't a fad in the Warhammer hobby space.
wow what a shit TQ
>>97209805>TQYes, that's proper 40k hobby
Cute Eldar boy feet
Asking again since last thread was dead when I asked, how should I paint up my Volkus terrain? Box-art Grey and Brass? Bone-White with Silver trim? Some other third thing?
>>97209863Bone and teal
>>97209863orange and teal
Seems like I'll be starting Admech tomorrow... What am I in for besides filing for bankruptcy?
>>97209895Learning to subassemble
Do people share /yourdudes/ lore at your LGS? Does you have HQ units that are like legends within your LSG? Like Captain Tiberius Serge of the Thundercrackers chapter or something?
>>97209945contrary to what this general would make you believe barely anyone actually does the /yourdudes/ shit nowadays
>>97209945The last time I tried sharing /mydudes/ I got pantsed in front of the cute cashier girl and got molested promptly after.
>>97209945No one does /yourdudes/ besides cringe incels. You choose an established faction and play it.
>>97209945Not unless people ask, mostly they just say ask something about what chapter it is and I'll just tell them it's one I made up>>97209968Wrong again /v/ermin
>>97209863Orange and teal
>>97209945I have names for each member of my krieg kill team since they're supposed to be skilled operativesi know lore wise their names are just numbers but i didnt really care
>>97209805>tqI don't think it would really change much to replace model pics with a model pics with some muzzle flares added let alone "improve" anything. I'd prefer more art and maybe clipping out those pages they include in every codex where it's just the box art store pics. Cinematic photos are cool, but the more of them you see the more you realize they all kinda look the same.>>97209863I think a tan sandstone and a brass with lots of verdigris could be cool
>>97209945Back in 6th there was a guy who played a Dark Angels origin chapter named the Archangels, he even put some tape over the "Dark Angels" on his codex and wrote Archangels on it. He was a cool guy, always ran Deathwing lists.But even back then /yourdudes/ and custom lore talk was rare. Nowadays everyone just paints canon color schemes and runs tournament scenarios.
>>97210009BasedA guy in my group adds little printed campaign badges to his killteam guys if they survive games or do something crazy
I'm thinking of making my Marines a company of Minotaurs that are essentially debt collectors sent out by the High Lords to harass fringe Chapters behind on tithes, demand tribute from Imperial worlds along the way, and are generally just assholes to everyone not immediately above them.
>>97209987whatever helps you cope I guess
>>97210028>Nowadays everyone just paints canon color schemes and runs tournament scenarios."No"
>yriel soonBut what about Karandras
>>97209945I don't think anyone needs to hear about /yourdudes/ unless they specifically ask about it. I do think it's a lot of fun to come up with fluff to make you enjoy /yourdudes/ more. I've got names for all my dudes, as well as the command structure laid out for them and a couple blurbs about the chapter in general, but I'd never force anyone to sit there and listen to me rattle it off.
>>97210053We're not doing Karandras.
>>97210053I wish fuegan and fire dragons were in Killteam. I don’t want to play eldar in full 40k but I like those models a lot. And I’m saying this as someone who fucking HATES AND LOATHES Killteam.
>>97210033"WE ARE INEVITABLE">>97210040I should clarify, everyone in every GW and LGS I have been inside since 8th edition
>>97210028There was a guy I think 4-5 years ago who wrote a whole codex so he could run only tau drone conversions
>>97210074Based, that’s honestly something that would appeal to me. Drones in tau are super underutilized.
why does everyone hate these Space Wolf heads?I think they're kinda neat
>>97210079It's really sweet. I know at one point you could find a download link for the codex he made
>>97210104>I think they're kinda neatKinda grim, decalmutant
>>97210062Fire dragons are anti-tank, they don't fit KT at all
>>97210074INCREDIBLY based.
>>97210121They also look cool, which also doesn’t fit kill team.
>>97210104Because SW are vikings and the furfag helmets are equal-parts betrayal of that aesthetic and a total vindication of SW/SW players' worst stereotypes.
>>97209863Orange and bone
>>97210127U wot m8, what about banshees and scorpions in the eldar KT?
>>97210136Quiet down tourist
>>97210111what
>>97210127Your autistic hateboner against KT is tiresome
>>97210148Ignore it, the /v/ermin is trying to make the thread about his crush again
>>97210152Nu-KT isn't Kill Team, it's a 40k port of underworlds
>>97210111Hes not the decalanon but I do love them myself, people who don’t play wolves and hate on them are weird.
Oh God here we fucking go again
>>97210021>Cinematic photos are cool, but the more of them you see the more you realize they all kinda look the sameI guess you're right.Maybe if they get applied too much their appeal becomes stale. Not for me but I can see it for others.
>>97210162God I fucking wish. at least underworlds does what it advertises.
>>97210028There's a guy on Instagram that did so many kroot kitbashes that he eventually learned how to 3d sculpt and started doing his own custom sculpts because he ran out of bits to use that he hadnt used before. There has always been people willing to put the time in to make their dudes unique and there always will be
>>97210162Yeah yeah you've said this a thousand times nobody gives a shit about your seething
>>97210177The internet isn't real life, zoom zoom
>>97209945Mydudes are Ultramarines. Anyone who can't appreciate the aesthetic of blue and gold space romans is a fucking retard.
>>97210021Such a dope photo, I mean its sorta cheesy but in a bad ass way.
>>97210198Based retard
>>97210205
>>97210199You own no models
>>97210220But enough about you
>>97209945Haltingly, awkwardly, and rarely. Most people dot. Have a lot of fluff, or feel anxious sharing it in person. There’s a new crusade starting soon that I’m hoping can draw out some more of it. That said one of the players is literally just running ultramarine super friends.
>>97209805>TQWe'll never return to IA/black books quality
>>97210198>literally nobody does thisOkay what about this guy>lol he doesn't count because you can find evidence of itLol
>>97210056You misspelled prologue. But cool.
>>97210104furries love these heads and I make a killing off of them by reselling recast ones
>>97210225>No uAt least try next time
>>97210239What a bizarre fantasy to share
>>97210228Your dudes are so frickin kino
>>97210235>Instagram is real life
I want to paint a mini with a tooth brush
>>97210238Thanks anon. And it wouldn't feel like mine if it didn't have a glaringly obvious mistake somewhere in there lmao
>>97210260Yes. People who exist in the real world do occasionally use social media sites and share their stuff. Just because you're incapable/uninterested with coming up with /yourdudes/ lore doesn't mean nobody else is either
>>97209945I don't think the blood god cares about names and the world eaters are too insane to even remember their names honestly
>>97210273>you'reNo I've always done /yourdudes/. I played that Ha'taph dynasty, a small Necron empire in the eastern fringe that borders the Tau Empire (had to explain why my most common enemy was my dad's Tau). After 8th updated the galaxy map my guys were Vassalized by the Sautekh DynastyEveryone I know and seen just do canon color schemes. They run named characters, they don't give a fuck. Homebrew armies tend to be extremely rare and isolated to dedicated hobbyistsAgain, zoom zoom, I'm describing my real world, lived experience. It's very cool that you saw an instagram post once, but that isn't indicative of the state of the hobby
>>97210242Try to buy some models
>>97210104Because they look like shit, you know it too.
>>97210296based opinion but turn the trip back off.
>>97210136Space wolves have ALWAYS been wolf aesthetic first and foremost. Wolf pelts, wolf tails, wolf axe heads, wolfhead backpack vents, wolf skulls, thr wolf shit was always the primary visual influence, and the viking shit didn't start to even gain much visual representation at all until 4-6th editionYou live in a world of pure fanfiction headcanon you've made up about them
>>97209978>>97210028That sucks, guess I'll just run with Death guard or Space Wolves or something.
>>97209805>TQI certainly wouldn't mind it. I think it could look.I kinda want to see them make these types of photos with the newer models like intercessors in middle of a battle. That'd be pretty cool to see.
>>97210304>they were first and foremostJust because something is first and foremost, doesn't mean it's good or looks good.
>>97210311That moron is calling the wolf parts a betrayal of their aesthetic, when the wolf part is and always has been their whole aestheticWeather it's good or not is personal preference but it is who they are
>>97210320Ive never met a Space Wolves player who didn’t love the Wolf aesthetic.
>>97210328You've never met a single space wolf player
>>97210283>I'm describing my real world, lived experienceAnd your anecdotal lived experience isn't indicative of the hobby as a whole. You claiming nobody does it, but then also claiming that you do it, people here do it, and people online do it doesn't really help your argument.
Did a game with Hesteban and a buddy of mine who plays Dark Angels. Didnt have time to do cool shots / editing but I'll do an edited one once I finish painting the other marines. Also this game went pretty bad. Got overwhelmed on turn 5 and couldn't defend the objective then everybody died
>>97210329All the space wolf players I know love the wolf stuff, the only people who don't are secondary's who watched TTS
>>97210345The original post was asking anons about their experiences at their LGS, you dumb fucking nigger. An instagram post is not your LGS
>>97210346Kino
>>97210346Good job as always brother, they look fantastic.
>>97210329You've never owned a model
>>97210320The issue isn't the wolf part, the issue is when GW goes completely full retard and starts making dumb shit like pic related >>97210104And stupid shit like thunder wolf cavalry or Grimnar's retard santa sleigh or even the modern wulfen we have.People don't mind pelts and tassets, it sells Space Wolves being bunch of tribal savages. People mind it when GW designers drink from the cup of retard juice and then starts to flanderize the entire faction.Like for example, imagine if fucking salamanders were bunch of drunkard savages that wear dragon scale cloaks, with dragon head helmets, while using dragon lightning claws, while riding on top of giant drakes into battle while they are being lead by Tu'Shan/He'stan who is retarded floating chariot that's being pulled by 5 wyverns. And as a dark secret the salamanders suffer from a geneseed flaw that turn them into AoS lizardmen.And EVERY SINGLE unit in the army is then named some dumb shit like "Dragonite Drakesword Guard", "Thunder Drake Cavalry", "The Cursed of Dargon"Everyone would, rightfully, call and refer to Salamanders completely flanderized retard lizardshit that's only unironically enjoyed by scalies who want to fuck reptiles.
>>97210136>>97210304>>97210311As Jes Goodwin himself said: they're Barbarians, it's a wider archetype, not just viking.Over time things get flanderized for reasons we are all familiar with.
>>97210365> Like for example, imagine if fucking salamanders were bunch of drunkard savages that wear dragon scale cloaks, with dragon head helmets, while using dragon lightning claws, while riding on top of giant drakes into battle while they are being lead by Tu'Shan/He'stan who is retarded floating chariot that's being pulled by 5 wyverns.I need this now!
>>97209945Only no games faggots do /mydudes/ faggotry.
>>97210378Shut up, faggot.
>>97210346Noice. Take your time.
>>97210365Pretty much this
Can someone please explain the webway to me? Like what the fuck does it look like? I just don't understand the concept very well
even without the slopper around this place will always find something to sperg about
>>97210365>the problem with 40k is that thing is dumb and extremeMaybe you'd better stick to horus heresy, this game clearly isn't for you
>>97210378Explain Sallyman
Why yes, I will join your escalation league, and yes, I will be the fourth person bringing Dark Angels
>>97210369Yeah, absolutely.I'm glad GW updated the space wolves finally and toned down the overblown wolf shit.
>>97210353Sure and then in this post you started talking about the state of the hobby as a whole >>97210283
>>97210378What about drookieanon. Or purpleanon.
>>97210389Look it up on LexicanumIt will give you a much better explanation than we ever could
>>97210398Based
I had some autistic retard talk my ear off about his retard homebrew chapter and I wanted to tell him to shut the fuck up so bad. Luckily someone with aspergers arrived and started talking about his stupid homebrew chapter in his aspie monotonous voice so the two of them fucked off and talked about their unoriginal chapters together
>>97210402>Everyone I know or seenYou cannot read
>>97210398Well said, my friend!
>>97210413don't samefag your shitty ritualpost
>>97210283Sounds fucking stupid and if I was your dad I would've beaten your ass into shape to stop you from doing something so gay
>>97210369I dont hate the viking stuff, i just can't stand people (in all fairness it's actually just like 1 guy here with a stick up his ass) trying to pretend the wolf themes aren't their main thing. Its happened in several threads over the last few weeks, some asswipe trying to say they never used to be about wolves and that they were just vikings and the wolf shit was tacked on later when the opposite is trueIdk if it's some right wing nutcase who just wants their trve Aryan viking army and sees the wolf furry stuff getting in the way or what the story is, but they keep trying to be completely revisionist about what the army is and has beenIf anything space wolves (and most space msrine chapters) have undergone the opposite of flanderization compared to their 2nd and 3rd edition stuff
>>97210415Lmao @ u calling others autistic when you cant even stomach normal social interactions in the hobby or grow the balls to tell others when they’re overstepping
>>97210427The first "Wow thats crazy" would've made a normal person shut up, not the fifteen that the autistic retard kept talking through.And yeah let me tell the local store autist to straight up shut up that'll really make people like me
>>97210434you sound like a beta cuck
>>97210400>>97210425But I like them being big on wolves yet barbarians
>>97210427My dudes faggotry isnt a normal conversation in the hobby, you would know this if you weren't a no games
>>97210425Trying to turn this into a right vs left thing is very cringe, you pinko fuck
>>97210443I don't care, it looks like shit. Thank god GW grew a brain and got rid of it.
>>97210398i'd really like to see your dark angels anon
>>97210442You're autistic you don't know what a beta sounds likeVideo related its youhttps://youtube.com/shorts/hUCCcA28UG4?si=F88td7XzGGl7gzXB
>>97210449We have a verified space wolf player in this general who puts 88 and ss thunderbolts on his tanks. Is it really that hard to believe?
>>97210453AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>97210449To be fair decal fag put SS stickers all over his space wolves and then crashed out when no one thought it was funny
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>97210464>>97210462Tbf he said it was just a joke and did remove them.
>>97210462He likes the wolf shit though
>>97210470>he said it was a joke>got banned for a racist crash out several days agoI dont buy it
>>97210474I must have missed that one
>>97210470Yeah sure it suddenly became "just a joke guys!" when he realized people hate /pol/ shit
>>97210481Shouldn’t we support and approve corrections to past behavior?
>>97210481You mean just the one redditor faggot who made it his personal jihad to eliminate the decalfag
>>97210489Its not a correction if that faggot doesnt mean it
he really lives rent free in your heads doesn't he
>>97210472I'm not saying decalfag and vikingfag are the samefag, I'm just saying certain chapters do actually have a /pol/ problem (space wolves and black templars are the two that come to mind)
>>97210491Actually redditors love space wolves, nice try fag boy
>>97210497I wouldn't say one idiot player means the faction has a ____ problem
What was the number 1 thing money wise you wished you learned sooner when painting?for me it was using vallejo/army painter bottles instead of citadel pots that are shit and dry the paint in the pot ( also overpriced)
>>97210516Wet palatte
>>97210516Sounds like you're not after painting advice as much as peer-certified Cool Kid Opinions™ that will let you finally be one of the cool kids if you adopt them.
>>97210516>he fell for the "citadel is bad" memeYou're right you are autistic
>>97209972...by the cute cashier girl, right?
>>97210531Lol?
>>97210531>>97210533Whats with the faggot army showing up whenever you bring up citadel pots drying out?
>>97210447Yeah it is TTS secondary
>>97210547>secondaryThat’s being generous anon
>>97210516>vallejo/army painterAHAHAHAHAH at least buy one of the paint lines that are actually better than citadel, like monument or akOh wait you don't buy citadel because you're poor not because you care about the quality of your paint
Corsairs confirmed. Who here ready for that pirate life?
>>97210533some of their paints are objectively bad and low quality
>so this is my homebrew chapter the-I DONT CARE I DONT CARE I DONT CARE
>>97210559Go play HH
>>97210053Karandas screams "12th edition pity character" releasewhich is great because by then I'll probably have my Striking Scorpions painted
>>97210558As if ap and vallejo are any better in that regard. Buy monument or AK or just admit you're poor and stupid
>>97210558I only use citadel and begrudgingly use Vallejo if Im being lazy and don’t wanna hop around stores looking for a certain out stock color.
>>97210565HH has way better rules then 10th so gladly
>>97210569>or just admit you're poor.....but monument is cheaper than citadel
>>97210575Alright then leave. You don't want to be here and nobody wants you here, so go bug hhg
>>97210576Then you really have no excuse you poor piece of retard shit
>>97210586I want him here faggot, you don't speak for anyone here.
>>97210586I want him here. You sound pretty faggy trying to speak for everyone like this is reddit or something so why dont you leave instead?
>>97210378Trying too hard
>>97210569I'm NTA you fucking retard>what are you poor lmaoNobody ever switches from Citadel because of the price you brain damaged ape
>>97210591>>97210596/mydudes/fags in shambles
>>97210533Their whites and purples and greens are fucking terribleThe pots are even worse
>>97210516I find if you bang the pots on your hand after shaking them it knocks the paint off the lip and keeps it from dripping on the rim. I've never had a pot dry out after I started doing that, but I've had tonnes of droppers clog from every manufacturer and even had a panzer ace bottles nib split open lengthwise and spray paint all over my wet palette. I don't think the gw flip top is perfect, but I do believe fliptop is the choice to limit the amount of annoying problems. Coat d'arms is my current favorite. The old gw hexpots were pretty good, but I might just be attributing some of that to nostalgia, or the tactile feedback of them clicking closed making it seem like they're tighter than they are. I also don't really remember how well they kept paints from drying out cause I only used them as a kid
>>97210569Ap fanatics are in fact better than citadel lmaoThe only reason why so many people default to citadel is it's the most widely available hobby paint
>>97210533citadel is bad
>>97210539There’s a lot of GW shills in these threads.
>>97209895a good time painting cool models :)
>>97210613>Ap fanatics are in fact better than citadel
>>97210643They are, sorry you find this surprising but maybe if you'd ever painted anything in your life you'd have a clue
>>97210618It's just /v/ermin baiting by defending something as a contrarian, ignore him
>>97210533ill admit i still use some of their technical paints, mainly nurgles rot and black templar contrast>>97210612ive had terrible experience with citadel pots desu, ive had an entire pot of both corax white and abaddon black dry out>>97210531>>97210552mentally ill weirdos
>>97210684Their washes and technicals are great if overpriced for the volume you getTheir normal paints are serviceable for the most part but there are several better ranges Even TTC if you want nearly 1:1 options to citadel
>>97210684I remember buying a citadel paint and not using it for a while only to open it and find that it dried out completely because the lid wasn't put on right.
>>97210728I got a vallejo game color bottle once with a tip with no hole in it.
>>97210741They do that a lot, I have a pin on my desk to breach their nozzles lmao
>>97210741nuvallejo is garbage
>>97209805>TQAbsolutely.
Question, do yall think that gw actually may be going back into a semi-old40k aesthetic direction? Specifically with marines, terminators are close to being 1:1, sternguard too have somewhat of what i would call an old aesthetic, and lastly rumors of new tactical squad with old armor marks in 11e. Also, should I or should I not make a kroot army?
>>97210741havent experienced that yet but that sounds hilarious lol how does that even happen>>97210728yeh ive noticed their pots tend to get paint that drys around the seal and basically makes it so you cant close the pot properly
>>97210751A new sorta-tactical squad is all but guaranteed, they're out of aspect weapons to give squads to for a starter box
>>97210616I have year old Citadel paints which are still perfectly fine. They picture is lying or it was a bad batch which happens to everyone. I had that problem with AK paints.
>>97210533Their actual paints are fine for the most part barring their yellows and whites. Every range has a couple bad colors though, so that's whatever. Their paint pots are indefensible though, and they could have the best paints in the world and it still wouldn't matter because their pots are dogshit.
11th Edition:Corsair releaseDrukhari refreshExodite new armyYnnari DLCAlso Tau and Ork update. Xenofags are gonna be eating good.
>have a commissar to assemble and paint>no army or team to put it withpain.
>>97210782>barring their yellows and whites.Not true. Averland Sunset is good and their Contrast Yellows like Imperial Fist are FANTASTIC. White Scar is shit and Corax is just fine but Celestra Grey is great.
>>97210751I wouldn’t be surprised if they refreshed the Tactical Squad, the Rhino too. Even if James succeeds in turning Warhammer into a multimedia franchise, they will ironically be even more bound by the iconic elements of the Space Marines to sell to people. I probably won’t complain though, armor autism is a big appeal of Space Marines for me.
>>97210798Averland is literally the only good yellow they make though. I don't use speedpaints so I'll take your word for these.
Anyone know if one of those tau battlesuits would be too big to use on a 32 or 40mm base?
>>97210785>YnnariHere's your Ynnari refresh
>>97210827Imperial Fist is Contrast with full coverage like Magmadroth Flame (orange) (or whats it called). It's basically a normal paint but thin. One coat over white and you have full coverage. See Darcy Bono painting yellow or Tabletop Tactics painting orange.
>>97210846Isn't he straight up a Dark Eldar analogue?
>>97210827Nta but badmoon yellow is also insane.
>>97210846I think they need to either commit or squat. Move Yvraine to Corsairs or kill her off. She's so fucking tainted by Thorpe and the shipping fandom that Eldarfags hate her.
>>97210827>averland is the only good yellow they make >>97210616Yeah if you like painting with mustard colored spackle
>>97210856blizzard copied so much shit from 40k for starcraft its suprising GW didnt sue their ass
>>97210892Starcraft and warcraft wte supposed to be warhammer games but the licensing fell through part way into development
>>97210860I like Dorn Yellow for edge highlights.
>>97210894Same thing is said about Event Horizon. I wonder if it's all true.
>>97210894>>97210892Also worth mentioning that several artists from gw went on to work at blizzard in lead roles like Mark gibbons who did a stint as art director for world of warcraft in the 00s (he just did a long interview about it on juggz i think)
>>97210902hard doubt for event horizon
>>97210910Alarak (or at least the Tal'darim) was probably written by Andy Chambers as well, who wrote the 5th edition Dark Eldar codex and the Path of the Dark Eldar Trilogy before leaving GW. He was the lead writer on StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty.
>>97210892they probably diddnt sue because in the 90s GW made a decision not to venture into video games whole hog when it pulled out of the deal with blizzard, and since GW was just doing miniatures and blizzard wasnt doing miniatures and just doing video games, they werent really in direct competition at the time, so they may have weighed that it just wasnt worth the lengthy and expensive legal fight.also the case that back in the 90s, the company was a lot smaller, and just more of a tight knit business of games designers, at that point the artists were still running the show and it wasnt the giant faceless corporate shoggoth it became in the 00s. and by the time the suits did take over GW, blizzard was too big to sue and would have put up such an expensive legal defense that it also wouldnt have been a sure thing for them to win. GW also didnt have much of a corporate presence in the US at the time, so it would have been an entirely UK based company VS an entirely US based company, where would the legal dispute take place? in which countries courts and who's copyright law would take priority? the whole thing would have been a legal nightmare compared to nowadays where every corporation is pretty much global and international copyright law in the west is a lot more concretethats all obviously conjecture on my part but if i had to guess i think thats probably got a lot to do with it
>>97210934the director did mention 40k as an influence, but i dont know if there was ever actually a licensing deal that fell throughthere 100% was with warcraft though
>>97210768the picture is typical GW a story old as time
>>97210365>imagine if fucking salamanders were bunch of drunkard savages that wear dragon scale cloaks, with dragon head helmets, while using dragon lightning claws, while riding on top of giant drakes into battle while they are being lead by Tu'Shan/He'stan who is retarded floating chariot that's being pulled by 5 wyverns.That sounds fucking cool, kinda reminds me of how they were described in prospero burns
New GW opens in Hiroshima today. What should I buy?
>>97211021a fat man.
>>97211021IG Deathstrike missile
>>97210785>>97210846>Corsair releaseAs part of Deldar/eldar, mostly just Yriel/Viper and some corsairs with jetpacks/clouddancers>drukhari refreshThere will be 1 character release (Urien Rakarth) and a kill team that has 3 grotesques, a new Haemonculi model and an assistant model who does nothing and has no rules in 40k. Beastmaster and beasts will not come back. Reavers and other similar boxes will remain out of stock. GW will not put reavers in the battle box. This will be your 'refresh'.>exoditesKill team teased for 2030/12th edition.>Ynnari DLCUpgrade pack that is just bare heads with mohawks or something. Mandatory for armies that run ynnari.
I've grown suspicious that the only reason why GW rolled out a bunch of marine characters these last few months was because they're meant to feature as selectable characters in one of the RTS games currently in development.
>>97211053who hurt you
>>97211059I thought it was just because people were complaining their shitty sub-faction marines were treated as refuse for like 2 minutes.
>>97210365isnt the salamanders homeworld literally famous for having giant dragon looking salamanders though? and both the salamanders named characters have dragonscale cloaks and dragonhead emblems all over their armor with dragonbreath fire themed weapons
>>97211021Your first models
>>97211061GW when they squatted resin dark eldar stuff.
>>97211069>I thought it was just because people were complaining their shitty sub-faction marines were treated as refuse for like 2 minutes.Still are. Where are the generic iron fathers?
>>97211076and dont forget the HH dragonhead helmets or the dragonscale shield terminators
>>97210365The funny thing is that would go along way to make salamanders no longer the cool black guy chungus reddit faction. What's bad for spess wolves is good for salamanders.
>>97210954>in the 90s GW made a decision not to venture into video games whole hog>1991 HeroQuest>1992 Space Crusade>1993 Space Hulk>1994 HeroQuest II>1995 Space Hulk: Vengeance of the Blood Angels, Blood Bowl, Warhammer: Shadow of the Horned Rat>1997 Final Liberation: Epic 40K>1998 Warhammer: Dark Omen, Warhammer 40K: Chaos Gate>1999 Warhammer 40K: Rites of War
>>97211118Now compare that to the releases dawn of war 1 alone receivedOr the vidya releases from 2022-now
>>97211113its not bad for space wolves, you're just too 4chan brained
https://youtu.be/5UqPIi5KeGcI kinda dig the Greater Good, no cap
>>97211164i want to fuck this Tau up
How mad would people be if I buy a box of gaurdsman, votan, and/or eldar to use as infantry stand in in my Tau army? Ive always enjoyed the auxiliary thing in Tau and want my army to include a lot more racial diversity than just Tau, kroot and Vespid.
>>97210954Also GW may have determined that Blizzard was going to inevitably fuck things up for themselves down the line, as evidenced by how utterly dogshit SC2, D4, OW2, and current WoW turned out
>>97211191Lmao nobody before 2005 ever even considered blizzard would fuck something up
>>97211021A Marauder Bomber.
>>97211031They don't have any. Getting some orks for now
>>97211197Considering how divergent SC1 ended up being from actual 40k and then the immediate sequel to SC1 was utter trash and hasn’t had a third entry in like a decade? Someone at GW was surprisingly prescient in spite of the rampant Mormonism and constant Beitish backstabbing.
>>97211211>Immediate sequelIt was nearly a decade later and people didn't shit on 2 until the expansionsBlizzard was the golden god of game developers from 1998 to 2012
>>97211149Being a furry is in fact bad on every level and place in the universe except furaffinity, and I'm sure some furres would disagree and call for total wolf-fucker death.
>>97211189Eldar would probably not be auxiliaries. The rest of them would probably be okay as gay vesa or the votann equivalent.
>>97211164I like his kroot voice but not his femboy tau voice.
>>97211220No it was dumb. Why the fuck is Raynor still in love with his evil bitch of a waifu after all the atrocities she’s committed. Or even after the one atrocity that caused him to write her off as a lost cause in the first place. Also the game wasn’t good enough to take enough share from the BW community to replace it. Shit game.
>>97211189No eldar, they hate that gay tau shit. If you run guardsmen or Votann, kitbash the shit outta them.
>>97211191To be entirely fair WoW probably should have been replaced with WoW 2 instead of WoW Boomer Version.
>>97211228>>97211240Didn't older editions list Tau and elder as besties for working together and taking each other in armies?
>>97211243I mean OW2 did badly so I don’t blame them for chasing nostalgiabux even if that’s not a good long term strategy.
>>97211164https://youtu.be/I9DIlZ72MYYUh, based?
>>97211247The issue here is that they’re in allied roles to each other and not subordinate roles.
>>97209945>Do people share /yourdudes/ lore at your LGS?I just play with mates at my house or theirs, I haven't played at a LGS in forever. But I just tell them the name of <my dudes> and the general gimmick (greedy slaaneshi raiders, dark eldar with nid parts, etc), I dont subject them to the full autisum
Reminder of writing quality far greater than Sylvanas.
>>97211248WoW 2 should have come out around 2010 instead of the dragon game.
>>97211247Not really. In the old allies matrix from 6th, Tau and Eldar were only "Allies of Convenience", not "Battle Brothers". The only faction that had a Battle Brother army that wasn't itself were CSM's and Daemons.
Borg are here. Time for them to warm a shelf since I don’t play kill team. No more procrastination on my skyray I guess.
>>97211288looks good anon!
>>97211285You might wanna sit down for this one. From 6th edition for context
>>97211314What the fuck space marines and Tau were battle brothers? What changed?
>>97211320Tau just really wanted to be friends with people and GW let them friendmaxx. Honestly I think the idea is fine, but you can't let them have a full 1000-point even split between the two allies in a 2000 point game. At best it should have been that it was 1750 points one army and 250 points the other army.
>>97211255I get that but I want my dudes to be actual noble bright good boys. So its true equality and not whatever mind control stuff the current lore is up to for Tau
>>97211326Honestly they should expand on allied rules as im sure there's a few models people want from other ranges. Heavily limited the point cost of another army you can take like you suggest would be a good idea
Is there any other brand that has a paint identical or very close to the iconic 3e tau ochre color
>>97211335It's not entirely within the realm of possibility that an Eldar wouldn't act snooty or even start viewing other races favorably. The Rogue Trader CRPG had that one Eldar who was a lover of a Rogue Trader, there was Uthan the Perverse, there was that extremely old half-Eldar dude. Ultimately they're your dudes so if you wanna have like one or two throwaway guys, sure go for it. Just know that GW in general leans really hard in the other direction from what your dudes' lore is going for.
>>97211314Ya got any more fucking pixels on that image anon fucks sake.
Jump pack intercessors or jump pack death company?
>>97210856Nah, Tal'darim are a warrior death cult focused around empowering leaders by sacrificing themselves. Their hierarchy is extremely rigid and political maneuvering requires direct challenges with backing. Murdering the person above you just gets you executed.Essentially imagine if Yvraine was actually presented as powerful and respected and was actually empowered by Eldar deaths.
>>97211343I really got to get around to playing rogue trader. Yeah the new tau lore is kinda whatever to me, I enjoyed the Tau as naive people trying to do good unaware they're just a speck that could be easily wiped out by the other factions but existed through pure luck.I understand there's like a warp entity manifestation of the concept of the greater good now or something? I do find that interesting as a concept but I doubt ill be a fan of however it manifests further in tau lore
>>97211355You will need both anyway.
>>97211384It's a 1k list I'm just doing 1 big squad of them
>>97209805Where is she?
My dudes could beat up your dudes
>accidentally obliterated some detail with spray can primerWhoopsie
>>97211342
>>97211420That’s cute
>>97211420>>97211430Fuck off
For the terrain builders innathread, I'm in the process of painting my giant foam hill. It's xps cladding over a styrofoam core. I hit the whole thing with a can of that army painter terrain primer what don't melt foam but I used the whole can and didn't get great coverage, it needs another coat. Now that I have one can of foam primer on, can I use regular primer?
>>97211433Relax…
>97211430Stop pretending to be the redditor
>>97211442It actually is me and honestly id prefer you didn’t act this way just because you see my models posted.
>97211445Fuck off larper
>>97211425does this guy do artist paints or is it all hobby paints?
>>97211436seal it with pva glue and use any cheap paint at this point
>>97211430You dont understand my one squad has passion and comradery they could never lose regardless of the odds...
>>97211430Damn, your dudes will dehydrate theirs to death by sucking out their semen. Terrifying.
>>97211430Cool dudes, love how even the mechs have the wolf heads
>>97211496Ty king
>>97211430I'm honestly impressed in a morbid sort of way that you make basically zero attempt to integrate into this place.
>>97211505My guy Im not doing anything, i responded to a goofy post in a joking manner to shoot the shit with my peers. There is nothing deeper brother.
>>97211511>>97211501See >>97211449
>>97211514Like not that it matters but its me bruh
>>97211511No one wants you here. Fuck off.
>>97211530I respect your opinion but I am not going anywhere so please stay on topic.
>>97211534Do your parents a favor for once in your NEET life and slit your throat
>>97211501Yeah dude rad models
>>97211565Don't make this thread about your gay little faggot spat please.>>97211511All I'm saying is you basically do NOTHING AT ALL in terms of trying to acclimate yourself to the board, to the point that people understand your mannerisms enough to just straight up copy you to derail the thread. Don't you think at all that this does nothing for the thread? And don't hit me with bullshit platitudes, the way you've been acting for the past year isn't helping the quality of these generals.
>>97211597W/e man I am playing a tft game just chilling.
I have all the 10th ed codex supplements for space marine variants except black templars because they shouldn't exist.
>>97210060>>97210567
>>97211021Probably like a combat patrol or kill team of the army that looks visually the most cool to you
>>97211629Yeah well we'll see if you're still chilling tomorrow.>>97211746You know, this advice has actually not worked for some of the people I know who thought the mechanically technical armies were cool. They'll buy into something like Thousand Sons and then after their first game be all, "I have no clue what I'm doing, it's too hard"
>>97211765I mean thats fair but most models you can use as stand ins for others say you hate thousand sons play style you can easily just say they're other marines. The visuals matter the most id say as it helps get you excited to build and paint
Some dude showed me his slaanesh demon army and every model had that stringy blood paint all over them but painted white and were based in a similar manner.
>>97211413Who
>>97211781You know, this isn't a bad idea. I'll tell the Tsons guy to use his stuff as CSM and see if he likes the Dark Pact rules better. I don't know what to tell the GSC player in the same predicament though.
>>97211765Idk what you mean chief?
I don’t really get what’s the big deal with black space wolves is, the chapter gets candidates from the entire planet of fenris right? It shouldn’t be so out of the question for them to be diverse. It’d be one thing if they were selecting from a certain select group from the planet but as a whole it should be as diverse as diverse can be.
>>97211900This bait glows.
>>97211906It’s a genuine question. Also do space wolves care whether someone was born or raised on the planet? Because they can also import other gagglefucks of humans to fenris.
>>97211900They should push blacks in legions where their aesthetic works better. Maybe Iron Hands or Sallies for loyalists, or Night Lords and Emperor's Children for traitors. It is weird seeing black dudes in SW or Alpha Legion gear.
>>97209805>Would books be improved if cinematic model photos like pic related were included?Yes, I want to see scene recreated by models and dioramas. I remember a shop that had the climactic church battle from hellreach with black templars and orcs in a diorama, sweetest shit I ever saw.It planted a long standing seed that eneded up with me painting some black templars even if I don't play them just because of how cool that shit was.
>>97211910Yeah but what about Souther peoples on Fenris
>>97211910 it’s an entire planet that’s probably getting a cluster of imported imperial civilians and it’s not like the geography will hamper on the gene pool all the time, the dangers that the planet offers, will of course. There’s also primaris reinforcements. >>97211918What.
Eldar boy feet
>>97211946>it’s an entire planet that’s probably getting a cluster of imported imperial civiliansFenris is a deathworld under the rule of the Space Wolves. It is kept tribalistic and deadly to breed good recruits.
>>97211946Black skin/hair color and type/eye color work better with certain colors or styles. There are not and never have been black vikings, and it doesn't do anyone any favors. You know what I think black players would like? Actual African aesthetics and noy being crammed into a pastiche of someone else's culture.
>>97211942Sailors, not niggers.
>>97211877rubric marines can literally be used as battle line in a csm army and csm can also take sorcerors (generic) and stuff like heldrakes that tsons use. Really the tsons lineup isn't unique enough on its own, besides maybe sekhetar robots, to not just basically be CSM with wonky doodads.
>>97211918AL is because they were all white guy clones and SW is because they're nordic. It's always about trying to shit on white people but it comes off as weird because Blemplars are the actual chud marines in 40k but they don't fuck with the nazi german crusader aesthetic for some reason. And you get maybe one black thousand son despite them being egyptians which is also weird.
>space wolf player on another racist screedget new material you fascist fuck
>>97211915The old lore is that fenris is somehow special and humans who live on it are special but somehow you can't transplant that specialness elsewhere plus furfaggotry. So since space wolf companies were 200-500 guys each and there were 13 of them, they served as pseudo-chapters instead of normal companies to make up for the "lol no successors" meme. Primaris lore kind of removed all the dumb shit about the canis helix and furfaggotry in favor of "now you can make other variant chapters".
I thought space wolves were furries first before Vikings. When I think of Vikings u think of red corsairs and Huron.
>>97211989Well yeah how else did he get banned from Reddit over and over.>T-t-that's not me! It's a schizo impersonating meThere are only two Space wolves posters on here, and the other is a non-problematic dude. Or it could be a nomodels tourist.
>>97210121Fire dragons used to get flame thrower options It's too bad because the new fireaxe they get are cool as fuck
No one plays SW in my area/LGS that I know of and I have never read any of their books so my entire experience of them is hot fanart of Russ.
>>97211980WE
>>97212023Are alpharius
>>97211877General steelers you could probably sub for gaurd im notnsure how many units are in a gsc unit compared to gaurd though. (Haven't ever seen someone play gac)
>>97211314Between this, and the rules for my army getting nerfed I sat out 6th and 7th edition lmaooI figured it would be a shit show and that I would sit this one out
>>97211877He could probably run his thousand suns as normal space marines too if he doesn't have a ton of the flesh horror looking stuff
>>97212043Thousand sons are quite orderly and don’t have any body horror or even spikes, so yeah, they’re good to be played as ultramarines.
>>97211980Egyptians aren't black they're Hellenic
>>97212053Yeah plus you can always just your dudes them into your own special Egyptian chapter
>>97211989racism is based
>>97212075They're not Hellenic, only the ruling class after Alexander's conquest are hellenic. They're somewhat of a semmitic/arab admixture
Is there a reason Guilliman can't join any units? Is it for balance?
>>97212096Greg man thinks ultramarines are too cringe to pal around with
>>97212096probably. the primarchs are already knight levels of difficulty to kill, being able to give them an extra 20 ablative wounds on top of that would be too much
I just dont like bl*ck “people”
>Release short story about Prince Yriel and Iyanden>The Spirit Seer is a they/them
>>97212108It'd be a lot easier if people just said this instead of trying to invent fake reasons to hate things
>>97212108Sounds like a you problem
>Ask employee at GW what the rarest army for 40k he saw>Said it used to be Tau but now they're everywhereWhat does this mean?
>>97212117Young people love mecha and anime babes. Tau have both (especially the later if you look on third party sites)
>>97211946The Seawolves are described as from the Southern Isles as "dark of skin and temperament." Seen here in the 9th ed Codex. 7th ed Codex states the same thing about them.Which is canon that not everyone on Fenris is pasty white. >>97211965First off, "viking" isn't a race. It's a job. A job that involves invading, raping and pillaging. That's what it means to go a-viking. Second, it's bumfuck stupid to get so autistically upset that a space fantasy planet 39000 years in the future doesn't restrict itself to your perception of the ethnic makeup of Nordic barbarians from a thousand years ago.>>97212003I've played Space Wolfs to over 20 years. I've said it before here, and it's anecdotal, sure, but the only openly furry 40k players I've ever known were all Necron players.FUCK this new captcha. Every time it says "not required" the fucking 4chan server keeps saying "no valid captcha."
>mutant arrives>/pol/ bait immediately afterI am nooticing
>>97212135I am aware viking was a job. Look, you know I mean Nordic. To be clear, I am not upset. I merely think that, from an aesthetic standpoint, African featured people fit in more with certain legion colors and styles. It isn't really about culture as such. Honestly black space wolves aren't even a terrible offender. They kinda work, especially if they have braided hair/beards. I just think it isn't ideal, and also it is kind of a shame that none of the legions had an African cultural inspiration (aside from the dubious Tsons.) I feel similarly about there not being a south american pre-colombian style legion. Still, this obviously can be rectified by creative kitbashing and painting. I don't dislike black people at all, but I find it very strange to see a black AL marine.
>>97212247No. Stop being a racist sperg thinking you know what other people want.Just admit you're a racist fuck and you're stop autistic to accept that the world is moving on without you.And you will not be missed.
>>97212247Too autistic. Fucking autocorrect
>>97211326Honestly the free-pick allies promote pretty cancerous list building even with a point limit. They could solve this problem though just by releasing a non-imperium 'Agents' codex for outlaw mercenaries. Something that's a semi-common pool with options for Tau, GSC, Votann and even Chaos.
>>97212257>>97212261You can claim I'm racist all you want but I have a great relationship with the many diverse people that I know in real life. If you want to reduce this discussion to petty name calling and deliberate bad faith, then there is nothing I can contribute, I suppose.
>>97212247Surprised you're trying to talk sense to him, he reeks of HR-poisoned Redditor.>>97212132>third party sitesDo these really count? Until they actually start pulling out models like pic related this shit is all people getting lured in by a lie.
I just dont like George Floydians. Theyre gross and annoying
>>97212267It's just a shame. If I knew a black guy in the hobby that had his own cool Marines based on Berbers, or Bantu, or Zulu or any number of interesting African cultures and aesthetics I would be beyond thrilled! Imagine marines inspired by Songhai, with headscarfs and robes and finery, protecting imperial trade routes in the far flung reaches of the galaxy, specializing in mounted ranged combat and infantry leaders with power-greatswords. Wouldn't that be cool?
>>97212276Why are you so autistic that you think people have to fit into stereotypes you make up?You really are retarded.
>>97212276No you’re getting black Vikings you hecking racist chud
>>97212280No...the galaxy has fallen...trillions must die...
