Why is none of this shit reflected in any of their models or rules? They're like the least popular Space Marine faction because none of this stuff is ever actually shown and they just look like the fourth most interesting black painted Space Marines. I'm sure the fact that they don't have a primarch in the Horus heresy makes them the least popular for all those reindeer games too
>>
>>97218328
>Why is none of this shit reflected in any of their models or rules?
Because then they would quite literally just be Admech flavored space marines.
And arguably they'd make Admech as a faction redundant on the tabletop.
>>
>>97218189
I like your scheme anon. I'm taking a bit of a break from 40k, been working on some fantasy stuff

>>97218335
Since when has GW ever been afraid of making a Space Marine faction redundant with a other faction? They would just be the Elite version of AdMech and AdMech would be the Horde version.

New models look great but lack of pose ability kinda sucks. I was building lord of poxes and its build from these five vertical slices that make it so you can only switch out the head and pistol hand without having to do major green stuff conversions. As great as that model is I'll never feel like getting another one unlike something like the terminator lord kit that I bought like 3 times already and might buy another 2 before it gets discontinued
>>
>>97218436
Nice job anon. What are you gonna use this skull shield for?
>>
>>97218434
neither because it depends more on what you take after these choices. i would personally only take a maximum of 2 sentinels (scouts) for competitiveness and max utility which is what they're for, any more is nice flavor if you like walkers :)

>>97218558
you didn't specify they would be full squads. in that case the list is very bad. i don't know what knights do but your army can't take any damage, doesn't deal much damage at range, gets absolutely stuck on terrain (infantry can walk through it without problem) and has no boots on the ground to hold objectives

the rough riders pack a punch but they're hard to manage when in groups of 10 and they die to overwatch and any assault specialists other armies have if they get charged before they charge. it's some of the best close combat ability astra militarum can get but it's only 10 dice when using melta tips. and death riders are utility and road blockage rather than direct damage but in your army there's very little reason for them to block enemy movement because you don't have a vulnerable firebase in the back of your deployment zone.

you can realize that an army of skirmishers isn't a traditional army at all.

Need a rule clarification. My friend has a world eaters helbrute and it has this rule that reads "In your opponent’s Shooting phase, and in the Fight phase, each time an enemy unit targets this model, after that unit has finished making its attacks, this model can either shoot or fight, but when resolving those attacks it can only target that enemy unit (and only if it is an eligible target)."

In the core rules it says that units that are eligible to fight must do so. So if he charges it at a thing, and fails to kill it, then it attacks, the thing fights again?

Likewise, if he uses a thing to give himself a 6" consolidate, my unit that he consolidates into has to fight if I understand right.

Can his helbrute then fight again and if he kills that unit, repeat that whole "pile in, fight again if it takes damage" thing?

i would say so. every time a helbrute survives an attack, it attacks back and the helbrute has to be attacked if your units are in engagement range
>>
>>97218935
>Can his helbrute then fight again and if he kills that unit, repeat that whole "pile in, fight again if it takes damage" thing?
Yes! Please read either the World Eaters Faction pack (FAQ) or the Core Rules FAQ. The WE helbrute can repeat that multiple times. It is glorious, like the old days of consolidation.

>>97218984
it's a very rare case you've got there. usually my helbrute gets blown up in one activation, hence not using the rule even once.

I found a cheap copy of the 5th edition Dark Eldar Codex, so I bought it and read it. Neat little book, the lore for Dark Eldar is very fun

But I noticed something odd. That's the fifth edition Codex, we're currently in the 10th edition. As best I can tell, throughout those five editions, there has been a grand total of one new unit for Dark Eldar introduced. And that one new unit is the Hand of the Archon aka the Kabalites with an extra sprue of weapon options.

I must be missing something, right? Surely across five editions they must've introduced at least one proper new unit or character to Dark Eldar, right?

They are strictly worse than other options for both anti tank and anti infantry, same as in 40k, but they have pinning which makes them very useful still.
That's the nice part about the new morale system it adds different ways if handling threats outside of just killin everything.

I'd not fix them as much as I'd repurpose them. They essentially have the same armor as the BA captain, so I'd either buy 1 box for all my HQ needs (Lt. / Cpt. / etc.) or I'd use them for squad leaders / vets

I dislike how many fandoms have these weird "critic tourists" who are newfags arriving to do nothing but complain on a fake nostalgic view that never existed. They do stuff like youtube videos on subjects they know nothing about just to provoke outrage. Usually they pretend to be oldfags but they never engage with the hobby to the point the people they criticize ironically do more. They're oddball journalists.

No, it's heresy.

What the fuck are you even on about, Anon? You do not know me, you never will know me and assumptions like that make you look like a fool. I do not care who or what people buy for their first, second or any other army. I call out things I personally disagree with, but do so to myself or to the friends I play tabletop with. I barely post in this thread and when I do it is mostly to call out people who have cool ideas or nicely painted minis. I lurk and get what enjoyment I can out of this general.

Finished slapping together the Salamanders Combat Patrol. Gonna prime them when I get more Colour Forge in the mail, though I'll probably have to wait until the weather is good first. Just waiting on a Gravis Captain and a Apothecary Biologis to come in and to settle on what I want to spend 90 points on (Leaning between Scouts and an Impulsor, most likely the former) and I'll be ready to go all in on my Marines next year.

I do and no, you can not. I will not put my miniatures out there so they can potentially be used for shitposting or trolling. Besides, "Post models" is a sad argument when people can pay a few bucks for old minis via Ebay or other sources, or crib images from other parts of the internet.

>how the fuck did 40k fall this far?
GW in general sloughs off it's old fans for newer players and current trends every so often. It's not necessary bad, it's basically exactly what it needed to do to stay on top (which it undoubtedly is). Currently MTG-esque players and faux-competitive games is just the current thing.
A great weight is lifted off of your shoulders once you realise the old codexes haven't gone anywhere, and can be played just as readily as any other edition. I'm basically a newfag (Started 2019) but wanted to see the glory days of 40k so much I started painting and got the group into it. Pic related is old broadside battlesuits I painted up a few weeks ago for a 3rd ed army.
