Is it over?
>>97286374Yes it is. 40k is a series game and /tg/ is a board for mature individuals.
>>97286379huh?

>>97286402I love our little community
>>97286412Yeah they were the box art faction ages ago, they've switched them to the white one, likely because it pops better on the box art.
>>97286423White armor tau looks like shit og looks way better
>>97286367
>>97286402When was the first fridgepost fridgeking? Could be fun to add a fridgeaversary honours to the first two fridges
>>97286425I like the tan one more too anon, I was just telling you what happened and the likely reasoning for it
>>97286377Tau sept was the poster tau scheme up until 8th ed when GW colour swapped the codex art with white.
Will I get raped at 1k with this list?>Canoness>Palatine>Battle sister squad (10)>Repentia (10)>Celestian sacrosants (10)>Retributors (5)>Rhino>Immolator>Castigator
>>97286479where's your rrat themed tau
>>97286486Raped like, RAPED raped? Haha..
>>97286479Why did you choose the unironically most boring holowhore to simp for? Is it just because she's australian as well?
>>97286306how do the tau hide their massive tits so tightly behind that flat armour of theirs?
>>97286508>most boringbut he didn't post a picture of kronii
>>97286514rat is just a stacy pretending to be a nerd, even kronii is more interesting than that
>>97286486no, you have the Castigator for anti tank and plenty of OC for controlling objectives. save your repentia for the end game (maybe rapid ingress reserves) for the coup de grace so they don't get blown up too early. very swingy with sisters based on their invuln rolls. sisters tend to be fairly decent at low PV.
>>97286513they don't actually have tits in lore, its just coomer fan slop (i don't mind as long as its actually decent and not AI trash)
>>97286445April 9th was my first I believe. I'm still yet to decide whether I'm going to do a cutoff and do a new fridge come the frig anniversary or continue until the current one is filled. If I do a new fridge for 2026 I will likely allow for the people who previously submitted to submit new ones if they would like to
>>97286497Good question, I actually sold most of my tau years ago so I'm slowly rebuilding them. Maybe I'll make a themed squad or character.>>97286508Taste is subjective, I've really enjoyed watching her idol journey, plus she has her little tism moments about the old anime she used to watch is always cute.
>>97286486I need a big titty sisters gf to look at my dih like this and sigh before taking her armour off for bed.
>>97286508Nta but I think it's sad how all australian youtube people have to make their nationality their whole personality. Like take away the rrat's speech impediment, what does she have left?
>>97286563That sounds depressing.
>>97286548oh boy I get to resubmit for the fridge? that sounds awesome. will probably do another of this kitbash but reposed for more action
>>97286581badass looking model anon
>>97286553Doing a little freehand of her hairpin/logo/chibi version of her on a characters armour could be a cute little reference that doesn't take over the whole piece.
One very over-engineered magnetization job later:
>>97286569If I ever see mejorcuck irl I'm glassing that poofter.
>>97286596Good man
>>97286592boy im sure that was a pain to get done, well done though.
>>97286553If you've got a printer you should make a little Mr. Squeaks hiding in the bushes of one of the bases
>>97286536agreed
>>97286581Yeah I was thinking it'd be fun if everyone got a new chance. I also had some thoughts about mounting the old fridges into dreadnought chassis' as the sarcophagus and do all of their armour with the new submissions.
>>97286581Is that a non-faggoty dreadknight? Kino
>>97286628That would be so kino
>>97286412
>>97286513A magician never reveals her tits
Hey guys, collage anon here.My computer is gonna take a while to fix but I found an ancient laptop to work with. No promises but I might be able to get the collage done this weekend. Mounted unit/bikes won the january vote. This means any model riding a steed of some sort is fair game. Looking forward to seeing some cool rides.
Why do throoders always have to force their fetishes on everyone?
>>97286681Good work collage anon, ty
>>97286684Why do you still not know what a throoder is
>>97286684>throodersWho?
>>97286402Can I replace my first stompa with a family pic?
>>97286684(you)
>>97286681Nice, I have an excuse to paint another dog
>>97286695A compulsive need to always be the first one to make the new one so you can force your fetish on everyone is a throoder. I don't care that this one actually waits until page 8.
>>97286684You continually trying to redefine throoding still hasn't changed anyone's opinion or changed the tittyposters habits.
>>97286590That'd definitely be a good project to build up my free handing skills, and thankfullu battlesuits have a good amount of flatfish area's to practice on.>>97286610Since the only Bae related stl's I've been able to find has been mr squeaks I think that'd be a fun little Easter egg to add.
>>97286713>sexy women with big tits is a fetish now
>>97286720Begone, taufag.
>>97286563I want an overly religious closeted slut to playfully smack my rockon and call it a sinful tool she needs to cleanse
>>97286713>A compulsive need to always be the first one to make the new one so you can force your fetish on everyone is a throoderNope! That's your own fake definition and it doesn't reflect realityYou will now ignore this, seethe and turn schizo and call me the OP
I'm cold anon
Truly the throoder starts seething when called out on his poor behavior. I rest my case.

>>97286798Its you isn't it..
>>97286798>ratfagWho?
Eldar are a joke faction and I'm tired of pretending they belong in modern 40k.
Do Drukhari inflate their victims via the anus?
>>97286775Nobody said he was a smart man or one that applied his own values to his own life
>>97286805The vtuberfag ritualposter
>>97286798its me I seethe over offtopic vtuber ritual posting. be grateful im not a janny lest I unsheathe my blade.
>>97286807I tend to agree based on how they are currently portrayed but I would love to see them have a rebirth so to speak and become a powerhouse again.
>>97286805Not worth the effort to care. Ignore it and move on. How are you?
>>97286823You'd be fired within a week for falsified ban requests made to the real mods
>>97286828We have too many factions already, just cut them out and make Dark Eldar the only Eldar faction.
>>97286837its too much of a spit in the face to their player base so it would never transpire. They just need to not treat them like such dog shit in the lore is all. Why do they always have to be the faggots or on the losing end of things? Its excessive.
>>97286836Stop being an assclown and engage in conversation like a normal person. Ignore the shitposters and let them suffer from being ignored
From the cold we come and to the cold we return.

>>97286837>Axing the faction with 12 kits before the one with 50

>>97286726>sinful tool she needs to cleanseSnip snip anon. Hope you're ready to start wearing striped black and red thigh highs for her
>>97286813Yes, unless they capture a BA or SW then make them have sex with biopussy, because otherwise it wouldn't be torture.
>>97286681You are the kindness that keeps this shitshow friendly
>>97286844>They just need to not treat them like such dog shit in the lore is all.No, they don't. Eldar are a xenos faction, they should expect NPC treatment. I don't get why this is frequently brought up. If eldar fans want to not be losers then they shouldn't play eldar.>>97286860>Eldar>CoreNot in the slightest. You could remove them entirely and the setting wouldn't change in the slightest.
>>97286860Swap guard for chaos and you're golden
OFFICIAL TRUE AND HONEST 40K CORE FACTION LISTCORE:>faction I likeNOT CORE:>faction you likeT R V K EN V K E
>>97286870haha that's pretty funny anon
>>97286860>Guard>CoreLol
Do you prefer modern or old-style art?
>>97286899pretty gnarly lookin piece there, I enjoy both tho to be honest.
>>97286844>Why do they always have to be the faggots or on the losing end of things?Marine players would throw a shitfit, Gav even copped to it recently saying it's not his fault all his Eldar novels suck the BL editors won't let him potray Marines badly or even get a clear loss. Not sure how much of that is actually true, but I believe it to some extent.
>>97286868I do not understand this reference.
>>97286795>pedo artist
>>97286919Prove it
>>97286907>the BL editors won't let him potray Marines badly or even get a clear loss.Lmao that's a blatant lie.
>>97286858Good quote
>>97286906
>>97286876>>97286878>>97286894Sorry, but TW40K has spoken, you might not like it but those are the core factions. Chaos can be considered core adjacent, provided they get a shitty unsupported Day 1 DLC.
>>97286907Hmm that's interesting, I mean I wouldn't personally want Marines to be the joke franchise either but I feel I could write something at least mildly compelling that shows the Eldar in their previously powerhouse state without making the Imperium/Xeno factions they defeat look inept. Sometimes even the best get got but it can be done with grace.
>>97286919This again?
>>97286933
>>97286907How does this work with shit like ADB having his dudes absolutely clowning on marines, NL vs BA for example? Or does marine on marine violence not count?
>>97286860orks could lift out and nothing would change. they feel like a relic of the 90s/very early 00s, no substance just some "lol so random" memes.core 40k is marines, evil marines, tyranids/genestealers, space elves and increasingly necrons.
>>97286412>>97286637Crazy how far we've fallen in terms of art quality over the years.
>>97286935Too bad, here's another primarch and a complimentary BLslop release showing how super cool and strong he is
>>97286907That's a blatant lie, he's just a shitty author. The Path of the Dark Eldar series, in one of the books an entire host of Nurgle marines invades Commoragh and it's treated as a minor nuisance/fun event where the MC Archon and his retinue casually blast them to pieces while being irritated that Vect put them in charge of such a menial task. That entire series shows that you can easily portray Eldar as cool and compelling protags that aren't jobbers.
>>97286836there are no mods anymore. likely the reason why the vtuber ritualfag isnt banned is because they are a mod themselves. Probably the russian one because I'm 90% sure its the russian /tg/ mod who regularly posts ITT
>>97286941"Little girl" is one of his liked tags on Pixiv, yes.Go look at it, I'll wait right here. With a nice thick slice of humble pie for you.
>>97286956wait are there no mods anymore or is he a mod your schizophrenia isn't keeping things straight
>>97286941don't engage the retard anon, what the fuck are you doing
>>97286958Oh you think drawings are real people that's kinda cute
>>97286959there are less mods
>>97286899Old art is superior in every way. The faux impressionist art style used in contemporary 40k art is trash. I hate how the backgrounds are always blurred and undefined. The old art used to stoke your imagination with the backgrounds. Today it seems like the focus is 100% on the characters because the art is simply meant to advertise the miniatures. It's trashy and soulless corporate slop not real art.
>>97286935James needs to put active effort into making Tau and Eldar look bad, otherwise people might start thinking the Imperium aren't the goodest good boys.>>97286925The only novels I've read where marines job (to non-marines) have CSM getting dunked on. Don't remember any where loyalists get thoroughly humiliated, like getting slaughtered by guardsmen in Gaunt's Ghosts.
>>97286860>guardLol get out of here guardfag
>>97286958so dwarfs are all actually children?
>>97286956The rratposter gets his posts deleted occasionally I doubt it's a mod
>>97286946>Or does marine on marine violence not count?This, it's not jobbing if your enemy is your equal, or even arguably more powerful than you are, which is the case fluffwise for CSM.
>>97286955His point is that the boy lovelibrary won't let the Imperium lose.
>>972869551) not written by Gav and 2) chaos marines are bad guys and allowed to lose.
>>97286980>guardfag
After playing it for a few months now I've come to accept the new Dark Eldar codex sucks mega balls. It conceptually and thematically appears really good but when you play it you realize the entire thing is just the index except now all your unit abilities cost a resource that is not easy to get consistently, so it's just a flat nerf to the entire army for no reason. The Wych Cult detachment is pretty good but "pretty good" within the context of this codex means barely average when compared to every other army. Even Skari has been consistently losing in all his battle reports lately. I think I'm gonna shelve them until next edition and hope GW doesn't make them garbage right out the gate like they did with 10th.
>>97287010It definitely feels bad playing a poorly balanced faction, I feel your pain man.
Do most world eaters lists run multiple helbrutes or just one for the murderball option
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>97287027More like Fart Smeldar, lmao got 'em.
>>97287010It's also just a written very lazily. Like there's a ton of jank that needs an FAQ to clarify it or interactions that don't quite work as written or a bunch of shit that forgets abilities don't work in transports or just weird keyword dependencies that should be army wide.They STILL have the fucking typo on the Wych blast pistol from the first index for Christ's sake
>Dark Eldar Codex
>>97287066What typo?
>>97287072>not even a 1 in 6 chance to overthrow Vect when you control all of Commoragh Either give him a model or let us do it James, you coward.
>>97286860>Marines>CSM>Guard>Orks>Eldar>Nids You don't need any more than this. MAYBE Necron but that's about it.

>>97286306>TQArmyPainter washes mixed usually 50/50 with speedpaint medium.Makes a nice subtle wash that doesn't stain the miniature as much as an acrylic wash usually does.Now say something good about ArmyPainter if you don't want to die, anons.
>>97287100I don't get the hate for AP paints honestly. They're perfectly fine and they come in dropper bottles so they're automatically better than shitadel.
Real core:>Guard>Traitor guard>OrksThats it
>>97287072Imagine playing against a DE player in Crusade, with them talking up their Warlord's backstory and how they're somehow 11/12 adter working so hard, so you narrowly throw the game and give them the 12/12. Then you remind them that they have to roll for Vect, and you get to see the joy drain from their face as they roll a 2.They have lost all progress.They are back to square 1.And their Warlord is not just dead, but violently so.
>>97287100speedpaint 2.0 range is in almost all cases better than the GW contrast equiv
>>97286860>>97287091irrelevant because the setting sucks ass without the small things that make it unique.>sisters>inquisition>deldar>daemon enginesetcetcetc otherwise its just boring
>>97287109They used to be pretty rough, but the newe fomulations are a lot cleaner.
>>97287114I grabbed tons of Vallejo Xpress for the people in my playgroup, they swear it's just as good while being half the price. I paid less than 3 euros per bottle, while Citadel costs 6 euro.

>>97287170Same for every paint line unless you don't mind risking your brushes fucking up acrylic layers when you go to clean up your oils and enamels

>>97287214>can't follow a thread chainMaybe check the post the "guardfag" was replying to before you call him a guardfag, retardkun.
>>97287183It's also just the wrong AP value. Every other blast pistol in the codex except the Wych one is one AP lower. Theirs is better for no reason.
titus seems kinda op ngl
>>97287246his ressurection ability not being once per battle is hilarious
>>97287236>being this much of a smooth brainOnly a guardfag would list guard as core, even if they run interference for eldarfags

>>97287263>room temperature IQ detectedOk, I'll just explain since this is clearly beyond you, retardkun. All the factions listed as core are TW40k launch factions, that's the joke.
>>97287281what the fuck are you on about
>>97287255That's getting changed asap
>>97287282Lurk moar, newfag

>>97287314someone sounds upset :)
>>97287315You're damn right i am. I'm talking to a faggot
>>97287072This is actually kind of a cool rule because over time you collect several rivals into your service as secondary Lords. This lets you pick your favorite one of them to replace your previous Lord and completely change your composition as you build up again, and you keep all your super XP enhanced units as well.
So why have Thouand Sons bootlegged the Ironkin?

>>97287342AfterFirst there is the trialsThose who are chosen get taken and must hold vigil for 3 days, not allowed to sleep, if you fail you're "taken away and never seen again".Then they get implented and put into the coffin for a yearThose who survive can begin their training
since were just gonna keep adding every named smurf give us him with official rules
>>97287385try kill team with them instead of the full gameshould be simple to do with just a basic bitch squad of units
>>97286367i dont like it, its heresy, stop trying to convert me to xenos
>>97287391>the year is 2050 and every single ultramarine down to the latest scout recruits have been named and given an epic hero profileWat now?
>>97287396Skill issue just throod with big human titties next time.
>>97287415i unfortunately have a thing for blue skin
Not been here for a while, what's the collage for this month
>>97287390So there is no indoctrination phase between having your Baals taken off I mean being taken off Baal and coming out a muscular 7 foot superhuman? weird.
>Allthe normies are mad at GW now for releasing blatantly overpowered Ultramarine rules and pushing UM so harduhdid the ultrawank backfire
>>97287391Boltgun doesn't take place in the Warhammer universe.
>>97287437yeah, in the dante book they have the reactions of childrens when they first come out of the coffins despite being 7ft tall freaks
>>97287441Wrong, it's canon
It's crazy how the rules are so broken that if Titus gets charged or charges a fights first he gets to attack twice in one turn
>>97287391Caedo is the only smurf I really like. If anyone deserves a model, it's him. Then again you could just kitbash your sternguard vet leader to look like him.
>>97287408Prime Primaris Space Marines MkII
>>97287452he'll be nerfed once they run out of stock of his model
>>97287452I don't think that's how it works, actually. Also the chances of him actually getting killed in a single fight phase are extremely slim even without his likely entourage.
>>97287438twitter opinions are irrelevant, comp fags will buy the broken rules model while pay pigs will buy it because space marines, people who dont even play will buy it because space marine 2
>>97287452what do you mean he has normal fights on death that only triggers if he hasn't fought yet. His ability basically doesn't trigger if he charges a unit and dies, or next turn because he's the defender, so most likely goes first.
>>97287170GW's painting tutorials didn't mention this!?! WTF
>>97287461He's probably going to be like for the rest of the edition. I would expect him to be toned down massively in the first codex of 11th which will of course be space marines.
>>97287109idk, im not a good painter, but i stopped buying GW shit shortly after i got into the hobby and ive basically just been using army painter stuff for years
>won cheap warphead and a few minderzLate christmas gift to myself. I wish it was easier to find retro ork squads.
>>97286899some new stuff is kino
>>97287438>he doesn't remember Our Spiritual Liege First time dealing woth Ultrawank nufren?
>>97287464>>97287467Nah, it's a fucked up interaction but that is how it worksTitus charges, lets say Lelith or Jain Zar who have Fights First.He diesFights on Death is not considered a normal activation. See if a unit has fights on death and only some of them die - the unit still gets to fight with the remainder. Titus uses his special Fights on Death and RevivesThe Titus model revives in engagement range and has not been selected to activate. So Titus can be activated and fights again.It's the same reason Hellblasters can double shoot - all rulings point to Titus being able to double fight. Fights on Death is never considered to be actually fighting. So if Titus charges and then gets killed on the clapback, he cannot fight twice, but if he is charged or goes up against Fights First, he gets to double-tap.
>>97287437>no indoctrinationYou are chosen from your tribe by the BA (first filter)You are tasked with getting to the trial site (second filter)You go through the trials (third filter)You need to stay awake for three days, right after the trials mind you (fourth filter)You need to be implented and survive the process (fifth filter)You are locked in the coffin for a year, better not wake up, oops! (sixth filter)You don't need early indoctrination if you're already selecting particular individuals through so many filters.
>>97287438no? space marine sales literally have so far, and always will, funded GW as a whole and it will continue to work.this is business as usual, newfren.
>>97287449Boltgun doesn't take place in the Warhammer universe. It takes place in a "real world" setting as the found floppy disc game project of a childhood Warhammer fan. The creator of the game seems to have begun collecting during second edition and by the late 90s had developed a (presumably) Doom .wad based on his Warhammer hobby. The name Malum Caedo (Evil Slayer) is a reference to the main protagonist Doom Slayer of the Doom franchise. The over the top performance and accolades of Malum Caedo are supposed to represent the fanboy interpertation of a self insert/your dudes character and are additionally tipped off by subtle in universe lore discrepancies with the Nurgle x Tzeentch team up and Black Legion CSM inclusion because those are the models he had growing up. Malum Caedo isn't in the 40k universe proper he is a fan character depicted in an officially licensed Warhammer 40,000 video game.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYg71xNR0v4
>>97287493the fucking regular tactical marine box sold more then fantasy as a whole, space marines are literally the life and blood of GW and anyone who thinks they would regret over selling marines is fucking high
>>97287492>You are chosen from your tribe by the BA (first filter)they don't choose shit do they ? the BA just signal the applications are open and then it's a race to the trial site
>>97287493Ultramarines=/=space marines, unless you're one of those UM tards that thinks SM players should be grateful to them for propping up their faction, the same way SM tards tell xenos players to shut up and be grateful because they're funding the game
why are the ultramarine humans (not even space marines) tankier and better in close combat than a khornate berserker
I am thankful for the marinepigs as GWs focus on them ensures that my faction doesn't get hit by the retard bat as often as they could.
>>97287482
>>97287498of the 25-ish armies in the game with codex or codex supplement 14 have space marine in them. space marine are the money printing machine, the golden goose.just look at horus heresy
>>97287482i think the ultrawank now is worse than in 5th
>>97287438>thing comes out>it's insanely overpoweredName one instance where this wasn't the case with GW.
>>97287525tzaangors
>>97287525hand of the archon
>>97287522you clearly don't remember telion and chronus and old cato sicarius and calgar
Painted 10 more neophytes, need to paint 20 more. Then 2 Benefictus, a Ridgerunner to assemble and paint, a few more characters and 5 Atalan Jackals. It just never ends.
>>97287538post them
>>97287525the mechanicus sniper
>>97287521i can confirm it works, considering space marine 1 was the only reason i finally got into tabletop and actually got into 40k
>>97287525Dark eldar were a brand new faction in 3e and sucked hard for 12 years before their 5e refresh.
>>97287549as Orkz?
hows admech, should i just wait until 11th to come back?
>>97287521Trying to count thisMarines>Marines>Dark angels>Blood angels>Space wolves>Grey knights>CSM>World eaters>Emperors children>Death guard>1k sons>Deathwatch index>Black templars12Not marines>Nids>Necrons>Eldar>Dark eldar>Orks>GSC>Tau>Votann>Agents of the imperium>Sisters>Guard>Custodes>Admech>Knights>Chaos Knights>Daemons index16
>>97287561desu Custodes are Marines
>>97287525Most xenos releases, except votann with their pre-release nerfing
>>97287514probably because the unit doesn't actually do anything. redeployment isn't something space marines need, and they have awful damage output. so when they saw how bad the unit was they just said make them tanky to make them at least theoretically worth the points (20 wounds and some invulns added to an Intercessors or Sternguard Squad for fairly cheap)
>>97287525That Primaris bunker thing and Reivers.
>>97287561Custards and Sisters are basically marines
>>97287561Agents can run a roster full of deathwatch and grey knight terminators
>>97287571>redeployment isn't worth itmalys is taken solo sometimes in no small part due to her deployment
>>97287525slaughterbound
If I want 1k points of custodes how do I start?
>>97287566nuh uh, custodes are so much better and so much more awesomer than muhreens
>>97287514Only the greatest
>>97287561>customer>sisters>votingSo Marines++, Marines -4 Strength and Marines 5'11" vs 6'?
>>97287597Custodes are Space Marines but their special chapter gimmick is an inferiority complex
Thoughts on Emperor’s Spears?
>>97287592So in the new kill team with nightbringer, is this prop he's standing on in the box or is this part of the TOMB WORLD killsone?
they cant possibly make grey knights worse in 11th right?losing 70% of our options and still only having 3 fucking models, it cant get worse right?
>>97287592I don't know if I prefer this or the idea of models afraid to get off their building because dreads are roaming the streets screaming for their blood
>>97287599>customerhehehe
So are raptors going to be units of 6 after the new kill team?
>>97287541I realized I didn't do shit on the Cult Icon, need to apply some highlights on it like the chain, gem etc. I wish I could paint.
>>97287602Never heard of them.
>>97287611Drunk posting + phone posting is one hell of a drug anon
>>97287605GK are a detachment for agents.
>>97287621Just reminded me of /sp/ shitposting, and it does describe most custodes fans
looking at the heresy stuff for mechanicum is just depressing, why are so many amazing models fucking trapped there, why does admech get no fucking robots instead we just have skitari with long legs and fucking davinci planes
>>97286412>>97286637>>97286975Where did you find these images? Especially the two codex covers without the titles on them?
>>97287629>weyou don't own any admech models though
>>97287618better paint job than I can do at least
>>97287489Okay but none of that matters because fights on death can't be triggered on a unit that already fought in that phase
>>97287566Custodes don't have geneseed. They're not marines.
>>97287648You failed reading comprehensionThe scenario triggers Fights on Death first, before Titus gets his 'normal' attack.
>>97287648He's saying he fight the 2nd time after he revives because the unit has not fought yet
>>97287653True. They still go in the marine pile.
>>97287641there shittly painted, but admech are my favorite army, getting back into painting though i was gonna start picking up random admech shit to paint, and probably just get knight castellan and wait for 11th, maybe il finally upgrade my house taranis armiger
>>97287648If the fights on death triggers before he fights, and he revives, he can then fight a 2nd time after as he hasn't fought
>>97287648NTA, but you misread anon's post. He was saying:>TightAss gets killed>uses fight on death to revive >since he was up against fight first he gets another swing at them after he revives since he hasn't actually attacked up to that point
>>97287561keyword being "have marine in them"imperial agents have marinesi did count custodes as marines, they run on the same archetype except more gold and elitism
>>97287670Imperial agents isnt even an army. Shit is fucking sad as hell.
>>97287654You failed core rules reading comprehension
>>97286950>thus thenArtists worked on an actual canvas>thus nowIt's all digital slop
>>97287676they will be in 11e when grey knights and custodes are rolled into them
>>97287677The fight in Fights on Death is not considered an actual fight. 10th rules are fucked.
>Those titus rules>3+/4++/5++>fights on death with a revive so can fight twice>Gives attached squad and himself sustained 1 on ALL weapons>8 attacks at anti-infantry 2+Does GW do ANY playtesting whatsoever? That's fucking primarch tier
>>97287682You mean Grey Knights and Sisters. They're the two branches of the Inquisition besides Death Watch.
>>97287629whoever designed the first mechanicus codexes and insist on the strict segregation of 30k and 40k lines should be flogged in publicthe fucking mongrel who had the gall to make two mechanicus codex in 7th edition is probably the culprit
>>97287324>and completely change your composition as you build up again,See that would be kinda cool, except DEldar don't have a roster large enough for variation.So what actually happens is that you sigh, scratch out the warlord's name on the crusade roster, remove all the bonuses you were getting, then get your shit slapped in next game against the Crusade armies that don't fucking reset themselves when they're successful.And then you most likely quit playing DEldar and pick a different faction.
>>97287677The normal fight after he revives isn't a 2nd fight on death. All that means is two fight on death rules don't let you fight twice on death
>>97286479>think it'd be funny to customize an army with something crazy to take to LGS>vtuber or waifu themed would be funny>sold my sisters last year and don't want to go horde again>can't think of any other good ideas for a total army conversionI want to build and make something different. I already put LED's in models, but I want more kitbashing and unique stuff. I just have nothing that's coming to mind for a unique thing I'd stick with past a squad or one knight or something.
>>97287604Hope they'll show more of the murderwing this month, I still have no idea if the kit has enough claws for the entire squad or what. The Kill Team using raptor weapons alongside those tiny wings that usually go on warp talons fucking confuses me.
>>97287676i got my shit rocked by imperial agents while playing BAthey are one dimensional and hard carried by GK but they can work sometimes, even if the army lack a cohesive theme
>>97287677>Titus is destroyed>Fights on death>Revives>Does a regular fight now as he hasn't yet foughtThat's how it works.
>>97287438this game is our stomping ground, all other factions exist to service us. titus and guilliman are the main characters. ultrachads won and always will win. cope.
>>97287695>See that would be kinda cool, except DEldar don't have a roster large enough for variation.with delder you're supposed to just reuse the vehicles but swap crews. If delder were like space marines and hadd a datasheet for every variation, then a Venom crewed by wracks would have different stats or something.
>>97287719can you post a picture your ultramarine army with a timestamp
>>97287690Being the chamber militant for an ordo doesn't make you part of the inquisition. SoB are part of the ecclesiarchy and answer to daddy priests
>>97287653>elite super soldiers in power armorthey're marines in every way that matters. they're basically just grey knights again but golden this time since they're also daddy's most boys.
>>97287728They're still not marines anon. Marines are marines because they use geneseed.
>>97287736don't care. still marines in every relevant way.
>>97287525>>97287438I don't get all this sperging out over Titus's revive.>doesn't work if he gets shot to death>doesn't work if he dies in the clapback>it's not gonna do shit if whatever killed him is some high toughness non-infantry>only comes back with D3 wounds>unless precisioned out, Titus dying means his squad is gone so he's gonna come back aloneSo unless he gets charged by an infantry unit and gets killed by precision, it's just flat out worse than any of the non-conditional 2+ revives that a bunch of other characters have. Realistically, it's occasionally gonna happen once per game, rarely twice, and never ever more than that.
>>97287736You could never had made it as a marketer lmao. Marines are marines because of the big shoulder pads, that is how a tertiary knows something is warhammer.
>>97287736for all we know custodes could have geneseed too, we know they're handcrafted through arcane alchemy or some bullshit.the only significant difference between the two is the mass production of one of them
friendly reminder that the custodes admitted the grey knights are better than them and are closer to Him than they are
>>97287761umm ahktually they were insecure about the possibility of that fact and mostly just cope about it but given the golden jannies fail at everything they do and their failure is more or less the premise of the setting it's probably true
>>97287688You play tournament, right anon?It's the way to play after allAnd since it's the best way to play you'll play with the bestAnd for $44.99 you can have the BEST
>>97287745it lets titus skullfuck a couple of factions, a solo titus can go up against Jain zar, Lelith + wyches or Drazhar + Incubi and just win and there's not really anything they can do with interact with himHe's a unit that certain armies just 100% cannot charge, it's all the issues with Fights First only it's on a unit that hits and wounds on 2's and without the normal FF counterplayUltramarines also have perfect access to fallback and charge, meaning that Titus can always control when he is in combat. Imagine being Drukhari. You send your marine killers to kill some marines and Titus activates Tarpit.EXE and kills half of your incubi with 16 sustained hits 2+ 2+ AP1 dam 2 attacks, and cannot be killed so you can't venom reimbark. Certain armies just cannot interact with Titus meaningfully.
>>97287745titus solo can run at a brick of 6 BGV + a judiciar and kill 3, and then during the other player's turn (if they aren't running gladius) they have to choose between falling back from this solo titus and wasting a turn doing nothing or dying again because Titus will just do the same thing forever
>>97287781Except drukhari can precision shoot him to death with dark lances and disintegrators.
Tell me about (YOU)r dudes.My EC pretty much hijack smaller warbands and forcibly conscript them as glorified cannon fodder. If you survive for a while you get to wear the cool colors. When I type it out like that it pretty much sounds like pink black legion.
>>97287815Titus is actually tanky enough that you on average don't kill him with a precision dark lance scourge squad - which means you have to get an early bead on Titus with both a ravager and scourges and also not run foul of the gladius reactive move and also hope Titus completely mispositions (when he has a free redeploy)
>>97287824my salamanders protect people and shit
>>97287761Grey knights are mongrels with geneseed from every legion including traitor ones lmao they're the ones to talk
>>97287845they got it taken out and replaced with the emperor's good boy juice
>>97287438>thinking GW will care when smurfags will make them a forturne >thinking they wouldn't give the current mascot of 40k special treatment You do know the Ultrasmurfs and marines in general are what keep this company alive, right? Every other faction exist to be NPCs for marines and their Primarchs
>>97287824I have a small Black Legion warband that is so small and insignificant It doesn't appear on the battlefield nearby Abaddon the Despoiler (I haven't painted him yet)
>>97287824My craftworld is an edgier one that has links to Commoragh and my kabal
>GW unironicly just gave Titus the ability to regain health from executing enemies from the video game
>>97287072Made me actually look at what all the Ascendant Lord actually loses when he gets killed and all the territories are lost.It's just a bunch of boosts to crusade meta-progression which you won't miss by the end of Crusade anyway. You'll have already gotten all the benefits you needed out of them. And you get to pick and keep one relevant one anyways so you'll just pick whichever boost you still need like lethal hits or the free weapon upgrade for your new lord.
>corsairs can run in eldar and DE>clowns can run in eldaf and DE>detachments for mono-clowns and clown/DE soupWhy isn't there a craftworld/DE soup detachment? Ynnari are shit
>>97287854You realise the same argument can be applied to UM vs every other chapter just as easily, right? What makes you think your second+ founding chapter are even worthy of their Spiritual Liege.
>>97287896They have tried it in the last three editions and Ynnari ended up busted bullshit every single time.
>>97287525Krieg Engineers got hit with the nerfstick the moment they were released.
>>97287918and they still became THE datasheet that carries brood brothers because of how point efficient they are.
can I run Lieutenant Titus and Captain Titus together? I've never encountered such a problem.Is it allowed to titusmaxx?
>>97287525The new guard artillery cannon
>>97287934>Your army cannot include more than one TITUS unit.
>>97287934kek
>>97287938oh no
>>97287899Anon, my favorite chapter doesn't even have a model for their chapter master in 40k. I already know the smurfs will get special treatment compared to everyone else and no other marine chapter gets shilled as much as the smurfs, I've accepted reality at this point
>>97287824They're artfag drukhari. They believe in delayed gratification - a slow building dance that erupts into a single violent moment of utmost ecstasy. Suffering is all the sweeter after it has had time to mature. They are often seen wearing flowers that slowly fade away, a rare display of nature's passage within the Dark City.Slaves captured from raids are treated relatively well for a number of years, often finding life as a prisoner of the Kabal less horrific than their older life as hive-scum.The slaves grow content, perhaps even forming a twisted attachment. In some cases, they are even permitted to serve the Trueborn children within the Kabal.But it is a lie. From the moment they are captured, Hespor seeds, cultivated from Death Worlds and modified by Haemonculi, are implanted within them. These plants burrow into the central nervous system, laying undetected for years or even until the parasite is triggered. Other archons pay to watch the show - each nerve ending, imperceptibly consumed and replaced by the plant, begins to thrash and writhe. Thorns burst from these tendrils, shredding the flesh of the slave from the inside out in an inescapable carnival of agony. As the flesh sloughs away, all that is left is a still-living brain, the eyes, and a bloodied skull trailed by long thorned vines. The parasite keeps them alive for days in this state, each tendril as raw as a nerve ending. Some Drukhari take these still living skulls into combat, the font of agony as potent as any combat drug. When the other slaves ask what happened to their kin, they often find a single Kabal member adorned with a fresh flower and a content expression, and get told to not worry. And the skull upon the Drukhari's shoulder gets to watch, suffering in the throes of torment as the seeds are implanted within their fellow human slaves - their last moments filling them with despair as they realize that every slave will suffer the same fate and the good times were a lie.
Aside from the Repentia, are there any other metal SoB units that are way better than their newer models?
>>97287815sounds like durkhari are about to get nerfed again.
>Titus leading Wardens of Ultramar leading 6-man Bladeguard squad>Any time they get charged, the wounds can simply be dumpes on Titus to proc the 2+ 'Fuck you I fight twice' combo, assuming he doesn't just eat the hits with his ridiculous defense profile and six wounds>Any Infantry unit they charge is fucked because Anti-Infantry 2+ that also gives Sustained Hits to seven Power Swords Huron is either going to be absurdly broken beyond belief or practically worthless.Yriel is already forgotten.Ultramarines won. SM2 fans won.
>>97288015don't forget that the BGV also get some 18 ablative wounds because only gadriel needs to survive which means the normal way to kill BGV (high volume fire) doesn't work anymore
>"heres what rules changes I want in 11th!">it's just beating around the bush to effectively reintroduce a system that was present pre-8th>but it's not reintroducing that rule, it's making up something else entirely"oh they should make LoS base to base and make tanks have bases if not define the hull"....you could just go back to "you measure from the weapon" instead
>>97288032BGV also let the entire unit reroll 1s to Hit or Save in meleeJoyous day :^)
>>97288015>Yriel is already forgotten.Was it a real surprise to anyone?
it's so funny that corsairs got a bigger range expansion than drukhari
>>97288075>"oh, they should rework how vehicles are bracketed, -1 to hit is inconcequential...">so just go back to vehicle damage char->"so they should just make it so big stuff could lose access to weapons or movement based on how damaged it is"
>>97288015 This is going to have to get errata'd to once per game. It will simply be too strong otherwise. Each of Titus's Human cronies has 3 wounds and the two Space Marines have 4. The 6-man Bladeguard unit each has 3 wounds. And Titus himself has 6.So that's 6 + 12 + 8 + 18 for 44 fucking wounds and you need to eat up, potentially, 32 of them before any particular model dies. You have to shoot this fucker for 44 actual damage to get his fat, 24 OC Blob ass to get him off the board if they're standing in the open. Or find a model with Precision shooting to kill Titus out of the middle of the squad. Assuming you even have access to one of those AND your opponent ever lets them see Titus.And that's IF Titus fails his FNP5+ on every single wound.This shit is going to get nerfed for sure.
>Asurmen at Codex release got a ONCE PER GAME ability that gave his guns Anti-Infantry 3+, Dev Wounds, and Damage 3, but said guns are otherwise A6 S5 AP-1 D2>He is considered to he the greatest Eldar warrior of the modern era, an unparalleled master of combat>This gets nerfed almost instantly>Titus gets INNATE Anti-Infantry 2+ on an A8 S5 AP-1 D2 chainsword, which he can actually use twice per Fight Phase if you fight second and roll a 2+>He is more or less a bog standard Captain>Will absolutely not get nerfed because of SM2/3 shilling
>corsairs got Corsair Apothecary before World Eaters got their Butcher SurgeonHAHAHAHAHA
>>97288015I'm gonna laugh my ass off if Yriel gets a basic Autarch profile and some stupid ability like>PIRATE PRINCE: When leading a Corsairs keyword unit that unit gains +2 OC when contesting an objective
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAFUCKIN BITCHER'S NAILS
>>97288123>SPEAR OF TWILIGHT>A3 S5 AP-2 D2 Dev Wounds
>>97287970That's fair, glad you realize you're barely better than a xenosfag as far as James os considered.
>>97288124you realize we already saw the real one right retard-kun?
>>97288145Yes you fucking retard that's why I posted the real one while typing HAHAHAHAHA
So Titus easily punches out pretty much every other Infantry leader except maybe Abaddon, right?
>>97288145reminder that half of all americans are below a 6th grade reading level, and that statistic is likely far worse on /40kg/.
>>97287896Because it's fucking AIDS and attracts the absolute worst players imaginable. You should be praying they never bring back soup armies or the alliance chart. Ynnari is bad enough and luckily GW seems to be soft squatting it next edition.
>>97288154you're very mentally underdeveloped I see
I want a Titus so fucking bad bros
>>97288118It's been 25+ years since 3e, why are you still surprised at marinewank?
>>97287438Is this your first edition? Every GW game is always>they do/release thing>everyone bitches and moans how it sucks and how GW will go bankrupt and everyone will quit etc etc>preorder day comes, it sells out instantly, mysteriously everyone at the LGS, online and in every conceivable hobby space has the new thing somehow
>>97288163Are they giving CSM apothecaries a big bolt pistol as well? Don't remember CSM holsters being that big.
>STOP True Line of Sight>Nerf Vehicles>Alternating Acitvations>equipment point costthis fixes the game, right?
>>97288181>Are they giving CSM apothecariesLol, lmao. Huron's fags only.
>>97288186>alternating activationskills the game completely, it ceases to even be warhammer 40kplay a different game
more like TITus
>>97288172It's a bitter eldarfag mad that his gay pirates are going to get laughed at when they release, pay him no mind.
>>97288118there are only ~10 captains per chapter. they're incredibly elite
>>97288214There is only one Asurmen. He literally founded the modern Eldar military.
>>97288015>Any time they get charged, the wounds can simply be dumpes on Titus to proc the 2+ 'Fuck you I fight twice' combo>>97288095>44 fucking wounds and you need to eat up, potentially, 32 of them before any particular model dies.Do you people even play the game?
>>97288223
>>97288223>Do you people even play the game?No way dude. Shit got retarded in 7th and I said fuck it. I just paint minis and hope for more cool sculpts to steal for my Rogue Trader.
>>97288015>>Any time they get charged, the wounds can simply be dumpes on Titus to proc the 2+ 'Fuck you I fight twice' combo, assuming he doesn't just eat the hits with his ridiculous defense profile and six woundsread the rules
>>97288163See >>97288120The point was me laughing at world eaters.
>>97287584>redeployment isn't something space marines needI said as much. SM have more generalist targets, deldar need good deployment because everything is glass cannon
>>97288163It would have been cooler if he was steeling gene seed from a loyalist marine.They're fucking pirates after all
>>97288163This might be the best posed model GW has made in years>signature look of superiority

>>97288305>I, the world eaters player, am not upset>it is you who are upsetNice try angry ron.
>>97288313yes please keep putting your desperation on display
>>97288089A corsairs range expansion IS a Drukhari range expansion. All those new models are usable in their army too.
>>97288084>>97288015>Yriel is already forgottenEveryone already knew he was coming and he hasn't been officially revealed yet. There will be plenty of buzz when all the new corsair unit rules get revealed.
>>97287824My SW are an old legendary group of warriors who survive in the most remote and hostile regions of Fenris, they also have their own collective of Knights who have fallen out of favor with their Houses/Order and found refuge in this company of Space Wolves and have made alterations go there armor to reflect their new loyalty to their Fenrisian brothers. My SWs believe the return of Leman Russ is imminent and have begun preparing accordingly because of the prophecy of the Wolf time.
>>97287972I mean this is sick shit but definitely creative
This guy is gonna be like 80 points, isn't he?
>>97287615probably 5-10 just like the new Deathwatch kill team or many other KTs in the past. In kill team many teams are a 2 box team to build it how you want, so you need to boxes to build a max size squad.
>>97288339Sounds kinda lame and gay
>>97288416I understand, its definitely a work in progress.
>>97288418You should probably scrap it all together or take that sorta thing to a space wolf subreddit.
>>97287824The original decadent nobility who founded the city of Commoragh were long ago displaced by the upstart gangs and former slaves that formed the first Kabals. With the hierarchy of the city brutally turned upon its head, only the most clever and ruthless survived to claim the bloodsoaked spires rising above the city. But not all of the old blood died, and some were patient and crafty enough to bide their time and reestablish themselves high in the food chain, even after being marked for prey. The Kabal of Shattered Majesties reappeared many centuries after the Dark Muses made their play and claim unbroken descent of pure Trueborn blood from the old empire. Their enigmatic leader, Archon Maleum Xarxes, came from nowhere and was unknown to the city before his sudden return. Their most unusual practice is recruiting not from the city itself, for such dregs are tainted in their eyes, but by abducting initiates from Exodites and Craftworlders who have never been touched by the soul tithe.Their initiation right is to be tested in the Labyrinthine Lathe, an ancient hunting ground of interwoven webway realms as vast as a dozen worlds and marked by ruins of the fallen Aeldari Empire. It is maintained and prowled by the closely allied Wyches of the Cult of the Fractal Fugue, who tirelessly hunt and prey upon their victims until they lose all sense of self and the distinction between predator and prey becomes meaningless. Those who survive emerge with new purpose and take their place among the royals. The failures are delivered to the Haemonculi of the Coven of Iterate Perfections, self-aggrandizing flesh artists patronized by Xarxes to create enhancements and serums specifically tailored to Trueborn Aeldari and monstrous living sculptures of beauty apparent only to their alien sensibilities.
>>97287698all vtubers are furries of some sort so do cat girl/ bat girl/ dog girl / moth girl/ rat girl etc imperial guard with them all using 3rd party heads that match the vtuber.vtubers are cringed, but you can keep the model count low bringing things like scions / catachans vehicles and cavalry
>>97288426Well we were asked to post out dudes so I was just participating but I will drop it by the guy on the Fang and see what they think.
>>97288374They mention him leading Bladeguard which are 170 per 6. Company Heroes are 105, but I'd imagine Wardens of Ultramar will probably be 90 due to no Wound roll reduction.Cato and Uriel are both at 95, which is likely where Titus will fall as well.So we're looking at a 13 model 365p brick of immovable melee assrape
>>97288374Well lets see, he staples sustained hits to a unit, shoots twice with a normal bolt rifle, then starts spinning violently in the fight phase deleting infantry on a charge, then 60% of the time he cracks-back if killed on fights first or when charged, spinning violently deleting infantry and getting to do it again the next turn if he kills one.Actually 80 points or less might be fine for him compared to my GOAT Farsight.
>>97288430You should probably keep it at the fang.
>>97288432Eh, considering modern shooting, they won't last that long. And BGV really suffer against anything tougher than MEQ.Probably be better to slap Titus with Assault Intercessors and go ham.
>>97288427You Dark Eldar boys are intense, very cool.
>>97287703GK are actually pretty bad in the IA army. The best list is 1x immolator, 2x BSS, 3X breachers, 3x rogue trader entourage, 3x subducturs, 3x sanctifiers, 2x Deathwatch vets, and sprinkle in vehicles like armigers, rhinos and chimeras to taste. You have so much incredibly tanky OC for the cost you have one of the best objective games in the game. GK are kind of a meme internally lol, too expensive and rarely get to regenerate a marine
>>97287757we explicitly know they don't use geneseed, which is part of the reason female custodes makes sense. marines are mass produced luxury cars, custodes are custom built F1s
>>97288298>lore-wise Khorne wants Blood Angels and Sanguinius>tabletop wise he wants Titusalways the bridesmaid, those World Eaters
>>97288443personally I prefer 2x immo 1x BSS split but yeah its valid. people just don't enjoy playing board control that much
I want a Land Raider but I assume there's a good chance that the current kit will be replaced this year. How close is the Proteus to a regular Land Raider, could I just run it counts as?
>>97288465Running a Proteus as counts-as is totally fine. It's a tiny bit shorter and taller, but not enough to make a huge difference. I've been doing it all edition and no one has had an issue.
>>97288465It's slightly smaller than current LR.
>>97287938holy shit going from LT to captain made his sword bonkers. how many points is the good captain?
>>97288465
>>97288465GW said when it came out that its 100% valid to use in 40k.
>>97288439The entire squad has eighteen 3+/4++ after you get through the nine ablative wounds, the additional three 3+/5++, the four bonus 3+/4++, and then additional 4 from GadrielAnd then you have Titus himself at 3+/4++/5+++ with six wounds, who essentially cannot be cleaned up in melee
>>97287972insanely based your dude lore
>>97288471>>97288478>>97288479sweet.But while we're on the subject, how is the current Land Raider kit? I know it's ancient, but does it hold up OK? Any awful gaps like the Rhino?
>>97288493there are some gaps.. it is what it is.
>>97288493There are definitely gaps but I think it looks modern and awesome.
>mounted unit/bikes wonWhat should I do?>Primaris character on bike>Mario kart>BA attack bike>BA bike squad>Csm bike squad probably in EC colours>Juggerlord>Ork bike squad
>>97288458sorry that's what I meant the 5 sisters in each immo combo. point remains that GK don't really have a use outside of their worst detachment (ordo malleus should have let you bring more GK, at 2k points its an entire detachment to buff a quarter of your army)At low point values where you can being 3x GK termies ordo malleus is actually pretty decent, but outside of that meme they aren't really very good.
>>97288510Don't bother with CSM bikers. They should be getting an update next edition.
>>97288522Not a problem for me, my csm army is all 2nd-3rd edition stuff
>>97288510I'm gonna make an Inquisitor on Throne of Judgement for my entry.>>97288516Yeah it sucks, except for the first couple weeks after IA came out I haven't used Malleus despite my army being literally Inq/GKsmeh. maybe in the future.
Does a harlequin skyweaver count for the bikers theme?
>>97288532I don't see why not, they riding jet bikes after all.
>>97288482I haven't really done a lot of math on character hunting, but if other armies have shooters like my Firesight teams, we'd be plinking at him on 2s, he'd be saving on his 4++s and 5+++s. At 3 shots a phase, we're hitting with 2.5 of those shots and he's saving half of those down to 1.25. He FNPs a third of those, to an effective hits of .75. On the hit we're dealing 2 damage, so in a perfectly average world, 4 rounds of shooting from one 60 pt unit.Its not great odds, but if you have 2 on the table, you're looking at zoning him out entirely of 36" in 2 turns. I'm sure other armies have better anti-character than this. If you're not going to shoot him out from under his squad he's footslogging 6" without a transport, so shooting his metaphorical horse out from under him and forcing him to hold just one objective seems like as good a plan as any.Don't get me wrong he's nutty in melee and I'll definitely be checking charge distances with him on the board, but I don't think his points are going to high.
>>97288532are those recasts?
As a guard player, is there any reason to worry about titus?He's seems overkill for killing guardsmen and almost harmless against tanks
>>97288330>he's still mad
>>97288544Look up if you can crunch through the whole unit in a single round, imagine him alongside his goons and a full bladeguard unit.
>>97288542No, GW plastic. I go a little crazy with sanding when I assemble I find it really relaxing, its not visible at all once you prime.
>>97288544Don't you have heavy flamer tanks in guard?If I recall a hellhound and some of you anti infantry boat should work wonders on them.Personally barbgaunts venomthropes and acid spray tfex just got better thanks to him. I may even consider to dust off the toxicrene it already ate throu victrix it should devour this unit too.
>>97288544I see Titus as like 140 points or maybe even more and will probably get bumped up even more. He blends as much as a 5 man unit almost so he will probably be a bit more than that.
>>97288555Rogal Dorns have a lot of 3 damage shots that can maul the unit, though the enemy can always get luck (or unlucky) with 4+ invulns
>>97288544>Titus 160 points>Wardens of Ultramar 70 points>6x Bladeguard Vet 170I sure hope 400 points beats a bunch of things that cost 100-200 points.
>>97287824Stargiven Vigilants>A macabre tradition, the chapter makes use of personally bonded servo skulls for each battle brother. When a Coal Heart dies and after their geneseed is removed, they are prepared for their final journey. Before the final dispatch of their remains, a fallen brother’s skull is removed and prepared ritually for service after death. The name and service number of the fallen marine is stamped on a golden plate affixed to the skull’s forehead. Eventually servo skulls are made from the preserved craniums of these fallen Coal Heart marines. The sacred ritual where this takes place is followed by a special dinner for the fallen marine’s squadmates and chosen successor. During it their brain is divided up among his brothers and eaten, giving them all pieces of his memories and life through the Omophagea. In this way vital knowledge is preserved across the generations. Lastly and with solemnity, the body of the dead marine one is lowered into a ship’s reactor core where it is incinerated. Certain highly venerated brothers have their bodies fired into the sun of Oracleus Minor where they become part of the Starbinder’s firmament itself. The machines act as personal scout and support devices for full Astartes, symbolizing legacy and ongoing duty. A Coal Heart is bonded with their Stargiven Vigilant shortly after receiving the black carapace. Occasionally they are donated from the Neophyte’s mentor when the neophyte is reading to become a full brother. The mentor then requests a replacement. Some of the Vigilants been passed down through millenia of service and are noted for having overactive machine spirits. The marines are expected to give their Vigilant a personal name, often based on the task for which the skull is specialized. Slimlight for an Auspex drone, Rubyfang for a combat specilized skull, or Bloodkeeper for a medicae model.Even in death, duty knows no end.
>>97287824Posting the lore for my Inquisitorial Warbands freeblade knight. I would model post but I've posted it in other places and don't want dox/cyberstalking.Several hundred years ago, sedition and decadence overtook the values of chivalry and loyalty on one of the most powerful knight worlds in the galactic north. The sedition and heresy were eventually revealed by one of the most respected lords of the planet, prompting a civil war and inquisitorial intervention that lasted for several years. Unfortunately, the power of the traitor knights was too great, and they had the love of their people, which secured a powerful manufacturing and manpower base. Imperial command suspected that it would take decades to retake the planet with the few assets left in the system that hadn't turned traitor and were considering that most terrible option, Exterminatus.All plans came to a screeching halt in a single terrible night. The leader of the traitors, who had forgone all other titles and renamed himself the One True King, gathered millions of civilians and thousands of knights together in the capital city. Encased in his great warmachine, which was draped in robes of flashy purple and gaudy yellow, he announced a grand tournament in celebration of his coronation to determine who among his servants were worthy to serve him. Declaring the start of the tournament with a single, long, and strangely warped blast from his warhorn, he immediately began laying waste to all in the city, including his inner circle. Footage from the conflict shows his machine moving with otherworldly speed as it bested other knights effortlessly while maddening laughter followed everywhere it went.1/2
>>97288428Thanks anon. I guess I was thinking in general too. Just a neat project idea to convert a full army. Like I've seen Kroot riding seraphon, lego ice votaaan, crazy traitor guard and things like that. Trying to find a project to keep me going with not-marines that isn't a gigantic miniature investment.
>>97288603The entire planet fell into a revelrous slaughter, completely disarming the planet's air and space defenses as they put out a distress call begging the Imperials to send aid and save their dying world. Many inquisitorial operatives on the planet fell victim to the slaughter as blood-crazed weapons of war thousands of years old lost all sanity and butchered all they could find. However, there was some resistance on the planet. The house of the lord who had originally revealed the conspiracy had survived by going into hiding, and they emerged in their full panoply of war. Though their Duke had long since been executed, they remained true to their chivalric vows. They had arrayed themselves in one of the minor spaceports, hiding their knights in hangar bays and shipping vessels while the decadent new royal court focused on other matters. They protected all free from the slaughter-lust in their spaceport, working to evacuate untainted civilians via orbital transport to loyalist merchant vessels above. The traitor knights, taunting and conversing via vox even as they hunted each other, heard of the resistance of the Duke's followers. They began to converge on the spaceport, emerging out of the foggy swamp wastes for hours. Screaming for honor duels and fueled by blind ambition, they burst from the mists that covered that gloomy world.Though valorous to the utmost, the assault was brutal and unfair. Despite this, the 11 remaining knights of that unnamed house achieved an enemy warmachine kill ratio of almost 6 to 1. The butchery continued for 3 solar cycles until the very last machine stood standing on a field of metal corpses. Missing an arm, their carapace torn open and with mobility disabled, it was the Duke's own knight that defeated the false One True King himself. They say it was a one-sided fight until that last, and that the words exchanged between the pilots drove the King of Madness into an ever greater fury.
>>97288594>>97288603Very cool
