So I get the book is a limited release but the Wardens kit is also not going to be a part of the range?
Does anyone has good scans of White Dwarf 514? Trying to read more about the Warptongue's CP
Hello I have not kept up with 40k, when they released the new dwarf faction did they tack them on the end or did they make it like they were always there?With like a timeline in the codex full of events/battles dating back to whenever. pic unrelatd
Sex with off-model Tau women.
What unique role do Tau occupy, because to me, they just come off as Imperial Guard with better equipment. They have similar doctrines and approaches to the IG. They're both based around gun lines of squishy infantry, artillery, and playing keep-away, and lorewise, adhere more to sensible/real-ish tactics.
>>97334478They were the first Eldar Space Marines with JSJ flying MEQ. Fish of Fury was supposed to be the IFV mobile infantry NATO adjacent gimmick but the flying MEQ weapon platform was, still is, and always will be their role. The loss of Deep Strike scatter also heavily changed the impact of their Crisis Suit main player.
>>97334458More or less yeah. They're "humans" that were heavily modified by their AI overlords over millennia to function well in the dense heavy gravity in the galactic core.
>>97334478IG use WW1/WW2 style tactics, especially those of the Red Army and Germany. They pin down enemies with waves of badly trained conscripts, trading hundreds of men for every dozen enemy killed, as artillery and heavy armor maneuver and play the decisive role. Tau are based around modern military doctrine, so lots of drones, air superiority, combine arms, incredibly good satellite reconnaissance, targeted shock and awe, winning the hearts and minds, etc. You could really think of the difference of doctrines as Guard being very Wasaw pact-esque and Tau being more like NATO.
>>97334478>playing keep-awayThe main tactic of the guard is >NOT ONE STEP BACK>COWARDS WILL BE SHOT>FIX BAYONETS! CHARGE!It's all copied from grimdark memes of the Red Army mixed with British trauma from World War 1. And yes, guard are super varied, but we're talking about the average guard regiment, and by all accounts, if you aren't Cadian, Elysian, Catachanian, Tallarian, or any of the other special Guard worlds, you're going to be using tactics straight out of the Battle of Somme, Enemy at the Gates, or Starship Troopers (the movie).
>>97334478They're the "conventional warfare" army for people who like sci fi, as opposed to people who were too dumb for historicals but still wanted to yell "FIX LE BAYONETS xD"
>>97334478they look cooleverything in this setting is just about looking coolwhy are you so retarded?
>>97334478Guard is more about gunlines, trenches, and rolling thunder. Tau is closer to modern warfare. Strike teams, drones, that type of thing.
Gue'vesa as breachers, anyone?
>>97334471This but unironically
>>97334617Big saggers...
>>97334615I recently picked up a box of the new Cadians with the intent of following Duncan's latest guide on how to make Gue'vesa. I've been considering making them breachers, but it seems like it would be a massive pain in the ass with how the new Cadian's are modelled. Might just fall back on making them a Strike team, and make a proper Tau breacher squad after. Besides, I like idea of how Tau in the 3rd ed codex (their initial release) were entirely benevolent. They absolutely wouldn't put auxillaries up front just to save their own lives, they would use them were they could provide the greatest benefit to all.Pic semi-related. Some of my 3rd ed themed Tau models.
>>97334615I never like cadian but orange helmets just make them looks like mr humpty dumpty.
>>97334651>That bolt action model to the sideFor context, we were playing the first mission in The Battle of Taros. The "objectives" are imperial politicians that can run around and join units, so we used some other models to represent them. For anyone curious, it is an insanely fun mission and I encourage you to check it out.
And a first pass on the other side.
>>97334669incredible as always BLanon. awesome stuff.>repostin' my WIP for the month's entry
>>97334669My brother! This is phenomenal, well done.
>>97334688what's the deal with his helmet?
>>97334669Spicy af
pic related is why the Imperium will always triumph over xeno and heretic scum and fulfill the god emperor's will to eradicate all life in the milky way
>>97334727He's a radical Xanthite which was bisected by a daemonhost that broke free. Too angry to die so he was wired up to some legs.. and weapons.As a Xanthite he thinks the Inquisition should be attempting to control chaos, the same way they use warp travel, as dumb as that might seem. His helmet is a chaos artefact recovered from a cult leader.>the bit is from the Dark Commune kit which inspired the fluff
>>97334739You are 14 if you think this is cool
>>97334739Emperor ackbar, the Imperial Faith is the religion of peace!
>>97334739Based child martyr. Coexistence with xenos is impossible.
>>97334789Proven time and time again. They always stab us in the back.
>>97334793>UsYou are not in the imperiumYou are a Mexican high school dropout
>>97334739Tau don't smile. Water cast can kind of learn to do something like it but Fire Warriors absolutely do not smile. It's just completely not in their body language whatsoever and has come up multiple times. A smile is a human biological response to reciprocate or communicate friendliness.
>>97334809Kind of weird that Eldar and Orks do smile though.
Yo man where are the UK peeps at? This place is deader than a door nail my G's
>>97334617>>97334471>>97334304This lady needs someone to sculpt an actual miniature at this point
>>97334739>meanwhile IRLI have no idea why rightoids want to LARP Pol Pot so badly.
>>97334830Trying too hard
>>97334817Tau are descended from necrons.Orks, Humans and Eldar are all made by the Old Ones.
>>97334833I was in the room with the current ayotollah once for a CNN interview all his staff stole shit from the hotel it was funny as hell.
a model
>>97334884Nice model king!
>>97334851Really makes you think how shitty their country is.
>>97334886Don't reply to me.
>>97334899lol fuck off
>>97334830>>97334886>>97334905Trying too hard
>>97334892I have a friend who's family is Iranian and its sad because everything I've learned about the country is that its beautiful and zorastrianism is super cool. Maybe greek jar anon can make some ancient persian inspired models.
>>97334739>eradicate all life in the milky wayWait, you didn't add the stipulation that it's all non-human life.
>>97334789then why did the xeno give food to human child?
>>97334817What do we think of Eldar-on Haloes like Macha's? I think it's breddy cool but better off unique to her.
>>97334960Because the Tau empire is fascist and trying to indoctrinate children into supporting their caste system.
>>97334809>Tau don’t smile >Source: I made it up. Here’s an excerpt from Empire of Lies where O’vesa is grinning, and his “smile” turns stale.
>>97334960To indoctrinate him and make him a race traitor grunt
>>97334974>>97334809I think even if it were canon that Fire Caste don't smile, this is or would be one of those things that writers are going to easily forget, honestly.
>>97334832I mean there are plenty of 3D models of her floating around.
>>97334989>>97334974Its stated multiple times in Elemental Council that the water caste are actively teaching the Tau to smile as a form of diplomacy because they don't do it naturally and that Fire Warriors to tend to be more racist and not interested in getting along with other races as thats the water caste's job.
>>97334832>>97334996I'd spray undiluted acetone into your eyes if you showed up with this disgusting obesity fetish on the table
>>97335000You know what? Fair play, elemental council is the more recent book so I think it supersedes the information I had. Nice that “- the water caste are actively teaching” is a good enough reason for it happen in other books.As a side note, is it worth reading?
>>97335011It's not an issue for nomodels
>>97334996She needs bigger breasts, unironically.Those are smaller than in the arts.Also her hips aren't wide enough.
>>97335016Yeah, unfortunately those nomodels don't get the hint that we don't want to see this off-topic fatfag shit and they should fuck off to one of the dozen porn boards
>>97335015Best Tau Book I've read, and the marines in it are unusually cool as well.
>>97335022Nah, it's only you.Nobody else cares. Go to kiwifarms or bolter and chainsword, they are more up to your speed.
>>97334817Macha didn't do much for me back in the day, but now I find her really cute.
>>97335015Its cool i just read it and had a good time. I prefer the farsight stories but its a good look at the dynamics between tau and humans on a contested world
>>97335011Don't reply to me, decalfag.
>>97335034>>97335034I guess I've just become weaker to smug elves over time.

>>97335034>>97335041I still find it incredibly funny that Macha being a cute redhead got canonized. Probably the only thing DoW3 really accomplished.
>>97335022Maybe if you scream cry about it more the jannies will ban all boobs/cheesecake so you don't have anymore tantrums
>>97335059a cute red with whisker face paint. shes literally a fox.

>>97334458https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Category:SquatsVotann are a redesign/overhaul of the Squats army that was canceled in the 3rd edition and then brought back in the 9th edition so they have fundamentally similar lore being space dwarfs who are abhumans genetically engineered to be miners during the DAoT but the nulore is that they are clones created in vats by all powerful AI 'ancestor cores' that hold the memories of all squats after they die and shit. They still hate tyranids too.

>>97335155That's literally Hive Fleet Hydras whole shitck
>>97335059I don't like the bun much; it makes her look too severe. It's definitely logical for battle, but I don't think Eldar should adhere to human sensibilities and limitations. Eldar should be able to fight with long flowing hair without issue, since they're psychic space elves, not human.
>>97335244I think it looks great on her. Buns are great.
I do not care for Tau
>>97335244She puts it up in a bun because she wears a helmet for certain bits of the game. The bun is actually very logical since it fills out her cone helm. Other eldar with long hair, like the autarch, are also shown preferring the top bun.
>>97335230Now I'm thirsty
>>97335169I mean did they write them in like>m36 squats fight orks on planet bumfuckand whole lot of other stuffor is it>m41.999999999999999999999 squats show up
>>97335169squats are still a thing in 40k seperate from votann
>>97335294It's the latter because the rift made them go out the galactic core more.
>>97335294>>97335302The Kin, which is the nu-squat name, have been isolated from the larger bulk of humanity since the end of the DAoT due to it sucking ass to get into the core. The imperium has little interest in the core as baseline humans are not designed to survive in high gravity worlds and they are mostly unaware of the pocket empires of the votann spread through there. "Squat" is a term used by the Imperium as an official designation for Homo Sapiens Rotundus, the abhuman subspecies found on Necromunda. The Demiurge who are allied with the Tau are another corporation of Votann Kin because the Kin don't really care as long as they're getting paid in precious space minerals.The old lore where squats got destroyed by the tyranids has been repurposed into a Votann kinworld being devoured by nids, creating a mad ancestor core and a region of space that Kin don't go to because it's cursed. Votann Kin regularly fight Tyranids as they are an existential threat and there's one nigga out there that's like the White Dwarf who travels around wth his tyranid trophy fighting them.The Kin also appear in Horus Heresy as the Militia rules allow you to basically homebrew an army of Squats and Squats are confirmed to have existed and fought in the Heresy (though there is no "Squat prospector militia" official heresy army) so they were also in 30k. But the bulk of Votann have always existed outside the imperium as the emperor never signed treaties with them like the admech. The Votann leagues avoid too much contact with the imperium as they don't want to get anschluss'd or purged for using AI since imperium hate AI but Votann leagues luv me AI simple as.They exist I suppose as tripartite compromise between the desire for more xenos/bringing the squats back, the desire for abhumans and the desire for some kind of DAoT tech representation in 40k.
>>97335301The necromunda squats are Kin, their Votann ancestor core is lost somewhere on Necromunda and is possibly one of the reasons for the weird STCs the hiver gangs have.
>>97335209Just take a look around bitz sites or go for proonts. Plenty of Chaos players have spare heads that they'll never use, so you'll get them for cheap or free if you're lucky.I've had some success with taking some of the "new" Nurgle Kill Team heads and putting them on other dudes, but just mixing and matching is generally useful for customizing them a bit.

>>97335494That sounds like cultural appropriation. I'm sorry, but my religious nutjob hyperzealot megaracist culture is not a costume for you to wear.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
I've been busy and haven't been paying attention for a couple years. How's the state of the game? What's the general reaction to the new releases? How is everyone feeling? How are imperial guard and sisters of battle doing lately since those are my main armies, but I've got marines and eldar as well.I moved a while ago and there aren't as many stores near me now so I'm mostly just painting and enjoying the videogames, might check out how tabletop simulator handles 40k.
>>97335506Good thing I don't care about any of that.
>>97335516Gross
>>97335526Does anyone?
>>97335494Things influence people and they think being a fan of the Imperium without having struggle sessions to condemn it at every turn will lead little timmy to joining atom waffen or even worse in their eyes becoming a republican.

>>97335605Marine sizefaggotry knows no bounds. Eldar are taller than humans in a lanky way. Marines are like head above regular humans and fat so they should be about the same height but spoiler: primarisfags are REALLY insecure about their height.
>>97335605Scalewise Eldar models have always been basically normal humans with most of their parts even being interchangeable with human infantry.It's only in the lore that they ever mention them all being extra tall. And only sometimes. Visual depictions vary wildly.
>>97335616Other than the dogwater "animation", the fact that the Bladeguard Vet just stands there gormless as his brothers die is quite something.

>While Titus and friends are fighting around Ultramar, things are no more rosy for the rest of the Ultramarines. We find out that Agemmann and Ferrien Aerios are fighting hard against the Word Bearers on Dhorvinus, while his entire battle front moves forward. However, some belief that Agemmann has bitten off more than he can chew with his battle plan. Captain Portan is dealing with the fact that the Alpha Legion has enslaved the people of Krasdinor and preventing them from doing their jobs, while (presumably) Typhus begins to work his own schemes. Decimus Felix fights on Jawardet, where the Nekrosor’s agents and their Flayed Ones have been pushing Nurgle-infested civilians into other civilian spaces in order to spread Grandfather’s Gifts. Captain Balthus pushes forward to the west at a blistering pace, the field commanders exhausted and claiming over-extension, while an Inquisitor tries to discover proof that the Ultramarian Reclamation is nothing more than the foulest heresy since the Age of Apostacy. Balthus is also setting up additional Apothecarions on these worlds in order to produce new Battle Brothers for his Chapter.Where the FUCK are da boyz?

>>97335831>Fucked around>Found out
>>97335824What has changed since Vashtorr appeared?
>>97335775>>97335790
wait, weren't they supposed to showcase more of those guys leading up to 16th
>>97335435Daily reminding than eldar treat their own children better than humans
>>97335856monday is the day of mini reveals
>>97335862
>>97335856They couldn't make it to take their glamor shots because they were preoccupied stealing cum from the Ultramarines' Second Company.
>>97335862Isn't that... Normal?If you had children (lol) would you treat them worse than other people?
>>97335605GW has never given a shit about consistency.Yes, lore states that eldar are about the same height as marines, but GW changes the heights on a whim and based on what suits them.It's like the same how with the "there's as many elves as the story requires" shit.
>>97335871No, he means as eldar treat their own kids better than humans treat their owns kids.
>>97335872>GW has never given a shit about consistency.yeah and because of that watching autists here sperg about the lore is so fucking funny
>>97335867The Path of the Stepfather is one fraught with peril, but necessary for Eldar life.
>>97335876Ah, was worded very poorly then.
>>97335867>Two parents home with childRegardless of the quality of care this is already a step above the Imperium
Why were Titus and the 2nd company tasked with botting out invaders from Ultramar when the defense of Ultramar is traditionally the purview of the 4th company?
>>97335871Well, eldar never use their childrens as cannon fodder, unlike humans
>>9733430440k is pozzed and gay
>>97335888contrary to popular belief, it's not about having two parents, it's having two healthy parents.One bad parent in a couple will be worse than single parenting.But this isn't about the imperium
>>97335775Still kinda miffed I can never get these anymore
>>97335783>Where the FUCK are da boyz?in 11th edition>>97335891looks like every company was tasked with this
>>97334739Propaganda
so if /WIP/ is pretty much all 40+ year old oldfags and hobbyistst then what percentage of /40kg/ are lorefags and 10th edition anons also are older editions shunned or welcomed here
Confess
>>97335775that thumb is actually a genetic mutation that is somewhat common. I have a friend and she has it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachydactyly_type_D
>>97335907>also are older editions shunned or welcomed hereNeither, really. It's more like nobody ever brings them up except to make a point about how 40k sucks in the current year. Bringing them up in any other capacity just kinda gets ignored.
>>97335765the 40k setting has become so small and quaint
>reading pic rel>legit feels like I'm reading YA fiction when I'm supposed to be reading about ancient eldar
>>97335920sorry chuddie, avengers in space is what the people want
>>97335921Good rule of thumb is avoid Mike.
>>97335907i started with 10th and have 2.5 painted armies now
>TQThey are the meal
Are eldar rangers any good?
>>97335925do people still want marvel? spiderman and deadpool draw crowds but they're scrambling with the new avengers dragging their primarchs out of retirement.
>>97335925They just don't want a based grimdark setting becoming mainstream popular, so they need to fuck it up and make it marvelfag gay as quickly as they can get away withThese threads are indistinguishable from a Reddit thread, except I can say nigger nigger juke faggot without getting redacted
>>97335948Kyke*
>>97335921The quality difference between this and the old Dark Eldar books is astonishingly vast
>>97335945Far fewer people, still some diehard comic basedjaks that would consume anything with the logo
>>97334739>the Imperium will always triumph over xeno and heretic scumso then why are they constantly losing more worlds than they are able to reclaim?
>>97335945I dunno if they want marvel but primarchs which are basically 40k superheroes sure seem to be popular
>>97335907WIP anons at least paint, but there's always 1 faggot trying to make something lol so random and quirky
>>97335961Why don't they just play the Horus heresy when they were all still alive?
>>97335921mike got this edit for a reason
>>97334304Instead of a faggot question in the OP could we have something decent like "rules changes you'd like to see in 11th" or "when did the lore peak and start to go downhill"
>>97335961I think they are only popular among youtube/ticktock tertiaries GW has often issues with getting rid off them and so has to force them into battleboxes and shit
>>97335970While we're at it, could the Jannie's ban the gooners, as is their duty
>>97335964>1 faggot trying to make something lol so random and quirkyHuh? There's an occasional out of pocket comment but I don't feel like anyone is trying too hard to make it cringe or anything. I feel like /wip/ is very cozy outside of an occasional meltdown.
>>97335616why are space marines so weak?
>>97335765>Looks like Primarchs focused narrative is back on the menuPrimarch centered narratives are rare even in 40k.Only ones we have are Gathering Storm in 2017 which was about Guilliman returning, no shit it involves him.Godblight which came out in 2021, 4 years later.Arks of Omen which started in 2023 right before 9th edition ended and 10th began, which brought back Lion but his role was extremely minor anyway.It's been like 3-4 years since the last time when GW focused on any loyalist primarch.
>>97335980You're right. I want to keep it that way
Did Titus win?
>>97335994Yes. (I haven't read the book)
>>97336023Pretty sure the book only details the opening Act of the campaign so it won't include a conclusion necessarily. Or it will have a first confrontation between them that ends indecisively and they both back off to stare at each other from the corners of the sector for the rest of the edition
>>97335983It's really funny that I keep forgetting the lion is even back. He has had exactly zero impact on the setting. Though I guess the same could be said of Fulgrim.
>>97335994he got killed off-screen, sorry
Maybe new 40K player here, i want to ask. Im aimig for a SoB army, but what could be more useful as army box, the actual combat patrol box, or the Made to order box? (i was told that made to order box is the previous combat patrol, but without the rhino.)
>>97335629You must watch Lucius episode then.>stormraven with 1 squad of intercessors, chaplain and judicator>drops intercessors right on top of Lucius & Co>waits untill EC kill them in melee>drops chaplain and judicator
>>97336029>He has had exactly zero impact on the setting.He gave us the pocket sand meme
>>97334408>Trying to read more about the CPAnon no-
>>97336029same with girlyman honestly, they made up some bullshit that he changed the imperiums administration or whatever but ultimately nothing of note happened lol
>>97336059>they made up some bullshit that he changed the imperiums administration or whatever but ultimately nothing of note happenedThat's the most realistic thing 40k has ever done to be fair.
>>97336057Thoughts on the CSAM CP?
>>97336061you're not wrong I guess
>>97336037The made-to-order box is pretty poorly suited to how Sisters are played - you get small units of Repentia and Flagellants, both of which want big units when run (and neither of which has exactly been a mainstay this edition). The newer CP at least has some Sacresants, which have been an absolute staple in recent months, although that's 1x5 of a unit that many tournament lists run as 3x10.
>>97336059Isn't this exactly how 40K is meant to be.Even the grandest bit of hope is still a drop in the bucket.Characters can come back or die off but ultimately it means little against universes' stagnancy.Until we get all the primarchs back and then horus heresy 2.0 can start.
>oh right preorders today>everything relevant sold out alreadylol glad I don't play smurfs or crons
>>97335675Really makes you wonder if Leandros is chaplain now does he lectures Calgar about helmet as well?
>>97336071Calgar has an iron halo to be fair
>>97334478>What unique role do Tau occupyCocksleeves for the Imperium.
>>97336070shockingly Titus isn't already sold out in my regionthe first thing to go was the necrons battalion which made sense though
>>97336069>Isn't this exactly how 40K is meant to be.Oh absolutely, I see all this primarch bullshit as GWs way of throwing a bone to secondaries and marvelfags that want "the story to progress" even though nothing actually changes in the grand scheme of things.
>>97336050The animation aside the episode makes for a cool anecdote. "Lucius respawned inside an Exorcist stronghold and single-handedly killed everyone inside" could have made for a neat entry in a codex's timeline section.
If only the actually rules reflected the shit stated in the Codex...
>>97336069I mean realistically even if Guilliman up and redid the entire Imperium's administrative base, it would take literally centuries at best before anyone outside of maybe the Segmentum Solar felt any of the effects of it. Warp travel is slow, the flow of information is barely faster with astropaths, and all of that administrative base would take time to dismantle and replace because as shitty as the Imperium is at large, some people actually are doing important work that can't just be halted right away.
>>97335968lmao Based
>>97336085>it would take literally centuries at bestLolnope
>>97336059>they made up some bullshit that he changed the imperiums administrationHe didn't even really do that.Only thing that happened was that some of the High Lords plotted against him and tried a coup by killing Guilliman, obviously this failed, and expectedly G-man has all of the traitors executed and he then installs new replacement High Lords.Other thing he did is take a look at the Imperial Calendar.He just appointed and organized some historians, archivists to basically create a timeline of events of what has happened in the past 10 000 years so he can get up to speed since he was in stasis.Only for him and his scholars figure out to their horror that the imperial records are full of partial information/records, propaganda, straight up lies, myths, legends that the current time according to the Calendar can be anywhere between M39 and M42.And this then has caused the once disappeared Ordo Chronos come back crawling out of the woodwork which then sparked the Chronostrife. Which is a small scale war within the Inquisition where they are arguing what is the correct date according to the Imperial Calendar.
>>97336069Horus Heresy 2.0 wouldn't even be able to mix up the sides at all without invalidating existing armies though so it would just be exactly the same conflict with exactly the same belligerents on the same sides.The drama of the Horus Heresy comes from the layered betrayals, not the conflict itself. They couldn't very well replicate that in any way without a loyalist Primarch going traitor or a traitor Primarch turning loyalist.
>>97336083>shit stated in the Codex...
>>97336091>Lolnope>dumps Imperium for Imperium Secundus again
>>97336093>They couldn't very well replicate that in any way without a loyalist Primarch going traitor or a traitor Primarch turning loyalist.I wouldn't be surprised if they did that.
>>97336083You already posted this.
Exodite Units I am planning to make to add a more authentic, multi-faction feel to my Ynnari:Forest Blades (Ynnari Wyches) - Created by combining Wyches, Kabalite Warriors and WFB Eternal Guard/Wildwood RangersGlade Revenants (Wraithblades) - Created by mixing AoS Kurnoth Hunters and Wraithblade bitsRevenant Prince (Spiritseer) - AoS Tree-Revenant parts combined with the Warlock and Spiritseer kitsThe Reborn Prince (Wraithlord) - This model I've yet to decide on. Either it will be a mix of Wraithlord parts and the AoS Lady of Vines, or a Treelord Ancient.
>>97336099Grim. At least they gave a reason for it rather than just saying "No, can't bring 'er lol"
>>97336105Where's the Guilliman's harem unit?
>>97336110He just got them. Wardens of Ultramar. GW encourages you to proxy all of them with buxom elf bitches.
>>97336121Kek
>>97336105Sylvaneth don't feel that exodite to me. They're a pretty specific brand of wood elf, more wood than elf.
>>97336121>Whore'd in Ultramar with Captain Tight AssGulliman knew what he was doing
In the grim darkness of the far future there is only Roboute Guilliman, Captain Titus, and the Ultramarines! Yaaaaaaay!Join them on fun adventures every Saturday — only on Disney Jr!
>>97336099Man they're really burying the ynnari thing, sad
>>97336121Please. They're romans.Those are clearly his boy wives.
>>97336152Ok. Good thing you're not the one painting and playing them then.>>97336110Still not funny.
>>97336157Warhammer really needs a Saturday morning cartoon to sell more toys.
Victrix being released, being broken, and then nerfing them only to immediately drop the new broken Wardens is so funny to meReally rinsing those paypiggies
>>97336157>ARHG NOOOOO 40K SHOULD BE ABOUT HRUD BROODMOTHER CHI'KTI'TKATORE AND GSC PATRIARCH *bug noises*
>>97336168wrong, bugs are boring
titus and gman shrimpy don't fit into 40k
>>97336167They do this constantly to marines. Especially at the end of an edition when they don't give a fuck about balance anymore because they want to sell the next edition as a "fix" to all the problems they created in the last one. Remember desolators? Remember plasma inceptors?
>>97336157
>>97334478>because to meLet me stop you there, secondary. You've been doomscrolling memes for a few hours "getting into 40k" and come to the conclusion that you have the whole thing figured out. The truth is you're just fucking retarded and decided to "think out loud" on a social media platform. I have good news for you: now you have LLMs readily available to annoy with this behavior. So why don't you run along and ask Grok all the questions you can muster so you can come back here and tell us all how AI told you all about 40k?
>>97336173naw thats your hepatitis aspect warrior eldari that don't fit
Space marines should be 1 wound
What's the unique playstyle or archetype of each faction? It really seems like a lot of the armies are kind of redundant with each other and kind of play the same way. Like there's only so many ways you can differentiate "elite power armor faction" ten times over.
>>97336184Marines should be 3W 5T
>>97334651>I like idea of how Tau in the 3rd ed codex (their initial release) were entirely benevolent. They absolutely wouldn't put auxillaries up front just to save their own livesGaaay
>>97334651>>97336188it's much better if tau started off benevolent but as the galaxy became more fucked they began throwing auxilaries into the meat grinder
>>97336157i dont really get it but apparently warhammer is trendy now and while i dont blame them for striking it rich when the iron is hot i do blame them for not catering to me especially, they just blatantly forgot us all boomers who made them what they are in the first placepls gib rts game like dawn of war 1 and make 11th edition and old world 2.0 for meis that too much to ask
>>97336187Listen here you little shit
>>97336194>please gib rts gamethey just remastered dawn of war, announced dawn of war 4 and also total warhammer 40k
>>97336165The way that Ultramarine's gazing at his bolt rifle looks so incredibly odd to meThough I find it funny that the only daemons they wanted to touch were specifically nurglings for the kid-friendliness but then also touch on genestealers of all things
>>97336173They do make a lot of money though so we will get more smurfwank until GW finds another cashcow, which isn't likely
>>97336194Companies always have to prioritize maximing profit so they will always appeal to the largest possible audience. If you do not like the direction they're taking that means you're no longer part of their most important consumerbase.
>>97335862Eldar treat HUMAN children better than Humans treat their own children.
>>97336190Can't have colonial empires be portrayed as benevolent. Might make the goyim think too much.On a more serious note, there are a number of ways to use auxiliaries to inform on Tau psychology that wouldn't necessarily offend the "b-but Tau are the good guys" smarks that infest the faction, but we'll never get that level of effort from GW or whoever they throw money at that year to write a book that fundamentally alters their lore.
>>97335700I don't agree but I won't argue with you about it
Titus will become the emperors new vessel/reincarnation or some gay shit like that.
>>97336162Well you do what you want ofc anon, just thinking out loud
>>97336207This is a very American-perspective, corporate toadying lie. Enshitification has almost nothing to do with the market and everything to do with rampant short-term profiteering by milquetoast executives that can't think beyond "number go up".
>>97336184all marines (even termies and characters) should be 2 wounds, and 2 wounds should be impressive again.
>>97336207>it was always like XHere comes the revisionist relativist, hello faggot-kun
>>97336217they're not going to remove titus from his succesful video game franchise, idiot.
>>97336224Short term number go up IS the market anon, not any concrete exchange of goods and services for value. Always has been.
>>97336224>everything to do with rampant short-term profiteering by milquetoast executives that can't think beyond "number go up"Yes anon that's what maximizing profit means. They have to maximize the profit in a year to not have investors fuck them over, that's what they're going to priotitize no matter what happens.>>97336227Never said it was always like this but it sure as fuck has been like this since GW became a publicly traded company. It's not that surprising obviously.
>>97334651>I like idea of how Tau in the 3rd ed codex (their initial release) were entirely benevolentno, they weren't, it was all already there, but you fags are too illiterate to notice
>>97336242>Never said it was always like this>Companies always have to>so [companies] will always appeal>+ context of era comparisonDon't try that shit here
>>97336250Oh yay, we're doing this again huh?
>>97336224As tje other anon said short-term profit maximizing is the goal of every corporation now. It is quite literally illegal for them to do otherwise, as if a corporation isn't looking to maximize profits literally every day at whatever cost allows it to be maximized, they can be outright sued over it.You can thank the Dodge Automobile Company for this.
>>97336251All right I guess I should've specified I meant publicly traded companies in the past what, 20 years or so? My bad.
>Blood Pact are the most well known chaos army of professional soldiers >They are just a chaos army of average IG guys with daemon/bio horror armour>Only famous for not being deranged chaos cultists who bum rush the enemy and take heavy losses every time>Their only defining characteristic as anarmy is that they have an iron mask that gives them a snarl and a goblin noseI think this is lame. I'm a massive writefag and created my own slaaneshi chaos IG army and I feel like you could do a lot to explore a chaos culture to make them feel like an army of professional chaos soldiers
>>97336282>I'm a massive writefagCringe. Go make friends with a noose.
>>97336282Personally I am actually a okay with this gimmick purely because the psycho bumrush concept has become oppressively pervasive for Renegades and Heretics as a whole. Blood Pact is a breath of fresh air by comparison.
>>97336261No, actually: you shouldn't act like something that isn't good is good just because it's normal/expected.What you're doing is exactly what they want you to do: excuse and justify their shit.>it's just business>that's how the world worksIt's deflection 101, and is also exactly how people get more fed up with this shit: pissing on them and telling them it's raining.Don't be a faggot, anon, all I ask.
>>97336250No, they always did the whole “join us or we’ll conquer you by force” routine, but it was the Vespid entry in their 4th ed book that had the first bit of “we’re going to use weird mind control technology to subvert you, and we treat auxiliaries as lesser”.If you have any reference to that not being the case in the 3rd edition book, tell and I’ll check it out.
You know what we need? A half human half Aeldari faction. The females are all very slim, tall and 10/10 face, with MASSIVE asses thanks to their half human DNA. Males likewise with ENORMOUS VEINY COCKS. Slaanesh tries to claim the souls of the new superior specimen, leaving aeldari alone. I'm a massivew writefag btw.
>>97336288I get that anon but I feel like>These guys are the chaos forces, they have iron masksIs so basic, they don't feel to me like they're any stranger or more insane than some loyal IG regiments.
>>97336282>I feel like you could do a lot to explore a chaos culture to make them feel like an army of professional chaos soldiersAre you saying this as someone who has read the books they are featured in or as someone who has read their wiki article?
>>97336282Do not listen to >>97336283 as he is the resident obese troon replyguy from /v/. He will probably do an “oops meant this reply for etc” in response like a little schizo faggot.
>>97336292Anon I assure you I hate this as much as you do but that's the current reality and me or you getting angry at it is not going to change anything. People won't stop buying gw minis anytime soon so they'll keep doing shit that drives sales higher
>>97336302Buddy I'm a degenerate with likely despicable species-mixing ideas about Eldar and Humans and I feel insulted at your callous and unrefined concept of half-Eldar.
>>97336304And that’s fine. Khorne will take literally anybody so long as they do the violence and “random dudes that are somehow actually almost completely sane but also happen to be efficient killers who decided the Emperor isn’t worth fighting for” falls under Khorne’s surprisingly lenient umbrella. I agree that you could probably make a better concept but as-is Blood Pact were actually pretty novel at the time.
>>97336305As someone who has read all the Gaunts Ghosts books. Their spider tanks are really fucking cool. And the artwork for them in the Liber Chaotica is really fucked, its like a matrix pod controlling a tripod tank. The pilot can never leave the pod and is maybe grown inside it. That shit is grea tand feels chaos to me. Blood pact being the elite chaos dudes that die just as easily to the tanith guys like any other cultists enemy feels lame. >>97336308You always get a few dickheads who shit on anyone who wants to have fun with the setting, I'm not bothered by something so low effort
>>97336255if you wantmind control is at page 9 and 12farsight and his rebellion are already present as well
>>97336317>I hate this>but, it's how it is
>>97336324>Blood Pact were actually pretty novel at the timeThat's a fair point. I guess I'm just suffering from the "familiarity breeds contempt" thing
>>97336318It's Aeldari shitlord
>>97336347Over my dead body.
>>97336302So, halfbreeds will have smaller cocks than pure eldars?
>>97336302Wank before posting
>>97336335shame farsight turned from tau Big Boss into a generic rebelman
>>97336335I assume you mean the parts about Ethereal pheromones exerting control over other castes, sure, but OP was talking about the tau interactions with other species.
>>97334304>TQProbably some nice seared squig steaks.
>>97336365not the right thread to ask i know but are the new bloodbowl rules any goodi mean are they like insultingly badly simplified
>>97336350Pure eldars are like ancient greek statues though, humans are MUH DICK monkeys compared to them>>97336351Dilate drukhtranny
THE STAIN OF MY ASS NEVER FADES, TITUS
>>97336343That’s fair. In that case go crazy with /yourdudes/
so, a haemonculus could totally give a wealthy archon a wolf head and a cute wagging tail right? and it wouldn't even be THAT weird
>>97336427What if the warden of ultramar kit comes with a head for leandros to put on a chaplain?
>>97336427>The primary fans demand the impossible
>>97336464the official chaplain model is already leandroshe doesn't take the helmet off normally and he's 2nd company
>>97336459archons having that kind of body modification would be as weird in dark eldar society as a politician nowadays going to work while cosplaying his favourite magical girl anime character it's possible, it would still be weird and he would lose a lot of respect for it
>>97334793>except for the time they didn't and we massacred them anyway>and that other time they didn't and we massacred them anyway>and all those other times they didn't and we massacred them anywayCoexistence with humans is impossible, theyalways stab you in the back.
>>97335671Told you fuckers about helms.
>>97336488I feel like if he played it up as his gimmicky way of murdering people extra hard with his sharp teeth and claws the drukhari would be cool with it. I mean they already have bird people
ultravengers...assemble
>>97336282>I'm a massive writefag and created my own slaaneshi chaos IG armyAnd it's probably shit.
>>97336505bird people are not very high on their social hierarchy, just protected, like non-ugly femboys
>>97336516>this kills the xenosfag
>>97336498In fairness, imperium tends to stab you in the front rather than the back.
>>97336516why did they give the nig a sword instead of an axe?
>>97336505>I mean they already have bird peopleAren't the bird people just amazog delivery slaves? Useful but not exactly respected.
What’s the current lore with the Flawless Host? Are they Fabulous Bill’s personal army now or does he still have his own dedicated army of Numen? I’m having a hard time settling on what to do for my CSM army and surgical nightmare/roid rage/druggie marines seem cool.
What could I add to this guy to emphasize their job as medic? It's the only guy in the squad with a cross, fanny pack, and a yellow shotgun.
>>97336553White helm with a red stripe
>>97336553the cross won't read as a medic symbol until it comes close to violating Geneva's suggestions
>>97336381NTA and I don't know why that post in particular got you onto the idea of Blood Bowl. But uhh I'll try and sum up my general impression of it:>ultimately nothing fundamental has changed about the gameplay but there are a lot of little inadvertent rule changes as a result of SG rules writers all being illiterate and apparently not allowed to just copy old verbiage from better written editions forward>rosters are where the biggest shake ups are and most of it is baffling because it came from the corpo mandate of trying to edge out 3rd parties offering better products by writing rules that only suit GW's products... except they couldn't even do that. Teams that were previously allowed to bring up to 4 of a position that a GW box only has 2 of can now only bring 2, presumably with the idea that players can start the game with only one box per team... except they still can't because there aren't enough linemen in most boxes and many teams have extra positions they really want like big guys or in the case of goblins literally everything but linemen, so new players will still be upset about the buy-in. And attempt was made to buff the teams hit worst by this by buffing the positions that they are still allowed to bring, which has had results ranging from "fucking nothing" to "orcs now murder every rookie team in the game and also develop faster than any bash team in a league".
>>97336553If the shoulder pauldron were red instead of green it would read as the traditional medical symbol
>>97336159It was a failed idea of souping the eldar factions together that should have been squatted 2 editions ago.
>>97336593True but could have been revamped into a new subfaction instead, didn't need a lot of kits, maybe an upgrade sprue and voila, treat it like a chapter for space marines
>>97336553The bag also looks like it has some macguffins strapped to itIf you did some detail painting on it to make them look like pill bottles it might contribute to itTbqh though nothing on this model appears medical at all to begin withHe has nothing but weaponry, none of his equipment appears medical in any way
>>97336282I'd say the Vrakian militia is more iconic. There has never been an official Blood Pact model, ever. You also have the Grendish traitor guard from BSF with official models. And then there's thr darktide mooks that sadly lack model representation. All of these are more famous than thr Blood Pact, that only appear in some schlock pulp fiction
>>97336599Technically, they have integrated upgrade sprues as most aspects comes with helmetless options.
>>97336516Wish I could enjoy Imperium armies beyong Kill Team and overcome lame vehicles and unagressive walkers.
>>97336640>:C
>>97336588Bro what the fuck. Why do this in the edition where they introduce my boys the Tomb Kings.
>>97336655Kill team is pretty based
>>97336667Yep. But I am still missing FW's old Zone Mortalis format. But then I look at GW webstore page and start to think, that may be I should try Sisters.
Kill team fucking sucks.
>>97336683So does that model
>>97336679Gove it a try if youre feeling it anon>>97336683Aw hell nah this nigga
>>97336683what is a kill team
>>97336683Well that's what I am talking about my issue with Imperium in normal 40k.Sausage fest and goofy robots.
>>97336259>(((Dodge)))
>>97336683>poorly-utilized contrast>pubesYeah it’s the average marine player
>>97336683Could you at least brush off the pubes from your model before you post your hot takes?
>>97336531Because GW hates axes on loyalist models unless they are SW.I called it ages ago when GW consolidated all power weapons into 1 single profile, from then on majority of kits only contain power swords.Like even the Sanguinary Guard kit, which used to have 2 handed axes with 2 blades, only has swords and couple of spears.
>>97336713>Because GW hates axes on loyalist models unless they are SW.
>>97336722These axes fucking suck. They look like hammers.
>>97336722The new ones are fantastic but I still feel a little bad at the loss of the roman legionaries.
>>97336722>>97336735I hate the wing helmets. They look so retarded.
>>97336735Rome sucks so who cares
>>97336516Not gonna lie all this recent Ultramarine shit has all blended into one big slurry in my mind i've only now looked at these dudes closely..Why the FUCK is this just the IG regimental attaches but locked behind an expensive box an a bunch of marine shit a guard player wont want? Tell me they're gonna sell the 4 humans seperately after the initial Titus hype blows over, right?? I'm happy I play Traitor guard not normal IG or i'd be quite upset
>>97336762Corporate wants women in ultramarines but are too scared to push the nuclear femarine button, that's my guess
i need some good tyranid scheme ideas, preferably something that isnt nightmarish to paint, like the studio schemes all over white.i had a scheme in mind but after trying it out on a few models it doesnt look very good on the table so i'm back to the drawing board
so from what ive gathered kill team is like 40k in 40 minutessmall fast games done with little armies
>>97336762The Wardens are the cast of the Cavill show
>>97336762How come 50% of guard players in this general play traitor guard?
>>97336683Eh, I think your model looks fine. Feels like it's comic book colors. My problem is your opinion. Kill Team is good, you just need to have the tryhard mindset for it.
>>97336779Nigga can you please just fuck off to where you came from? We don't want you here.
>>97336779Small fast games, individual models having abilities and special actions, and each turn is played by both players going back and forth after rolling for initiative
NA pre-orders go live in just over an hour, right?
>>97336722Ultras are one of the other rare ones that do get axes.I'm still not happy regardless because I want generic loyalist marines with axes. Like bladeguard, they easily could have added power axes into that but they didn't because they are lazy.
>>97336769>>97336781Fair. I blocked the '40k will get some netflix slop show' thing out of my mind but this checks out>>97336784Look at this man. He fights for your freedom. fun to kitbash, and I enjoy painting a sort of mishmash uniform every model being a bit different, Traitor guard is perfect for that
>>97336779It’s power creep, the game.
>>97336762>IG regimental attachesFuck can't unsee now
>>97336792Schizo.
>>97336792>wemute posts and lurk more nigger
>>97336792schizo
>>97336835>>97336836>>97336840Nigga if you ain't know w tf killteam is nigga you a goofy as tourist nigga fuck off nigga
>>97336853I wish I was a tourist rather than someone who actually tried playing the waste of a game that is kill team.
>>97335605
>>97336779Pretty muchEach unit is generally special in some way though there are just filler units sometimesAnd yeah its quick and each player takes turns moving and shooting with each unit so you dont just sit around for a long ass time waiting for your turn>>97336792Ur gay LOL
>>97336826Yeah recently like 4 out of 5 of the newest teams have been overtunedBefore that spontaneous bullshit though the game was really well balancedIdk what happened? Deadlines?
>>97336856lmao
>>97336855Kill team is based sorry bud you’re gonna have to hold the L on this one and I put that shit on gang fr fr
>>97336826>>97336864the most recent 40k releases have been victrix (which broke the game) wardens (which are about to break the game) and c'tan spammainline 40k is just as bad, if not worse
>>97336856That SoB is really hot.
How physically strong is a necron warrior? without any weapons like, what would his bench/dead/squat be? Or how does he compare to a space marine?
>>97336883Old sob art used to make them hot
>>97336853>buck broken, the post
>>97336889Think Terminator, dude could split steel with his hands so I imagine they are incredibly strong.
>>97336889Stronger than a human, less strong than a marine
>>97336889good at deadliftsnot good at squats
>>97336856>SoB is shorter than the Guardsman even in her power-heels Do the Sororitas only hire womanlets..?? Cute. Makes taking cover easier
>>97336856>sm are 8.0Space marine are canonically 2 meters tall
>>97336915why doesn't it start at 0?
>>97336890I miss those times
>>97336935>old art>posts 9th edition codex artlmao very jewish of you
>>97336934You just blow in from stupid town?
>>97334408I can take some pictures of it when I get home from work if you don't mind waiting. The rules for it are also on the app, but I think it's missing some of the lore.
>>97336934It does
>>97336935They look like future victims of ICE
>>97336938nta but I think he was posting the new stuff to illustrate why he misses old time
>>97336938Have you considered that art might have been posted for another reason?
>>97336970Go get your lunch, big boy ACK
>>97336973Are those tits augmented or naturals?
>>97336970>victims of ICE>victims
>>97336986Only the best naturals for the emperor's finest daughters.
>>97336853but anon ive been here and posting my models before there was /tg/ to begin withno relation to current /wip/ yuru anon >>97336800>>97336861close bur no cigar then, seems to be really popular and cheap introductory skirmish game
>>97336988I thought the same as soon as I hit send, my bad. >>97336990Beautifully and wonderfully made, my Queens.
>>97336970>meanwhile so far ICE shots only white people
>>97336938You do realize that there are editions older than 9th edition, right?
>>97337008did you only hear about the white woman?
>>97337010nta but isn't that exactly the point he was making?
>>97336973
>>97336991>/wip/ yuru anon uhh what?
>>97337015So far yeah, although I didn't look deep to see how your country falls into caesarism.
>>97337020Cringe.
>>97337020Is this AI? They have two forearms on their left arms
>>97336735They got rid off those? Why? Looks like two separate types of Victrix units which could coexist
>>97337068They came with gravis Calgar. You'd think he'd still be around as an option as well considering they went out of their way to specify the armor for the new version but he's gone too.
>>97336938Are you retarded
>>97337083that's dumbwell good thing I don't care for ultras
Think Sisters are gonna get something? I got pick related and their old Combat Patrol a while back because I wanted to start their army but due to quite a lot of deaths in my family I was not in the mood and I didn't have the strength to actually start them.Is there any hope for something new besides the Kill Team?I might start Custodes for a smaller project if they have no chance of anything new and just wait to see how their 11th Edition will look like.
>>97336465Excellent taste, Anon.
>>97336991>no relation to current /wip/ yuru anonphew. I dread the thought of our precious rin poster being in this god forsaken thread.>>97337023iykyk
Saw an old Necrons box today with this art and cracked up a bit, but what's the idea behind its Obamafication?
>>97337023borderline avatarfag that everyone tolerates and likes because he is so nice to everyone, gives honest feedback and attention to posts forgotten by everyone else
>>97337130They are an avatarfag, pure and simple. But /wip/ likes that shit I guess?
>just want Nekrosor Ammentar>put pre-order in cart>Oh, it's under free shipping $, Okay fine I'll add the space marine pack too I guess>go to checkout>sorry, the space marines are out of stock>redo checkout>ammentar is also out of stock nowgod dammit
>>97337119Doubtful, I mean what could sisters get? other than Grey knights being merged into them or just all imperial agents being merged into 1 cohesive force. but Geedubs is too retarded to do that
>>97337178You snooze you lose
>>97337122Man's never heard of Obamium
>>97337188Yes, thank you for the advice Frankie.
>>97337130>>97337174He only attaches YC pictures to his feedback posts and never stirs shit so he gets a pass from me honestly
>>97337178Wait 'til the scalpers find out those are not FOMO shit.
No one appreciates the hard work of the Imperial Navy these days :(
>>97337216He also stopped avatarring for a long time and is only really doing it again out of popular demand from the thread a couple of months ago.
>>97334739I really like the Tau, if I had a bigger dick, generational wealth, and the culture war wasn't what it is I'd collect them, or tyranids
>>97334739That fire warrior wouldn't hesitate for a nanosecond to sacrifice himself to smother the suicide bomber to minimize casualties.
>>97336935They look grimdark and realistic What's the issue?
>>97337288They don't make my dick hard the way the ones who look more like Argenta do.
>>97337278What's gonna happen to you if you start Tau the way you are?
>>97337288Grimdark isn't just ugly, and lmfao at dyed perms looking "realistic"
>>97337296Idk, but I don't think I'd feel good about it, as I am now I can't 100% justify getting an army with no tits
>>97337181>what could sisters get?Tactical yuri couple named characters. During your turn you can swap them between two modes: wholesome yuri where they share damage, gain invulns, and heal one another (as well as nearby units that bask in their wholesome glow) so long as their bases are touching and toxic yuri where they deal one wound to one another if the bases are touching but also do increased damage to everyone around them (and making nearby allies do more damage, their troubled hearts looking to lash out after witnessing such toxic yuri)More seriously, I think it'd be neat if SoBs went back to being a more rounded "Ecclesiarchy" army with more pilgrims, crusaders, priests, etc, but at the same time I do enjoy the focus on nuns with guns so I'm a bit conflicted on what to suggest. Except biker nuns, it's an absolute crime we still don't have biker nuns.
>>97337288>grimdark = uglyNo
>>97336085not in the marvelslop era. in old lore it took centuries to cross the galaxy even with warp travel. now main characters literally just teleport around wherever its convenient too. fuck, lion el johnson got a literal magical forest webway teleport so he can go wherever he wants.
>>97337288Don't you have an ICE protest to attend?
>>97337369>Don't you have an ICE protest to attend?No... my mom got shot...
>>97337369Ban evading already?
>>97337330if by biker nuns you mean cavalry crusader knight nuns then yes, I agree with you.
>>97337362>in old lore it took centuries to cross the galaxy even with warp travel.
>>97337401>cavalry crusader knight nunsYes, but on motorcycles.
>>97337411guilliman famously got to terra in a few days even though he was in the same region of the galaxy.
>>97337421how can a horse ride a motorcycle
>>97337288>realisticHere's your problem, ma'am
>>97337429Why would the Ecclesiarchy let a horse become a sister of battle?
>>97337423Travel times, troop movements, and transportation and supply line logistics is one of the things that totally breaks down for most factions within the setting if you think about it for even five minutes. Especially the Imperium
>>97337436nowhere in the lectitio divinitatus does it say a horse can't be a sister of battle
>>97337411ngl the fact that you would dispute this only outs you as a onions nu40k newfag.
>>97337411In old lore the eye of terror "blinked", that's why it was called the "eye".
>>97337441Pretty sure they stopped letting them in after the Homo Sapiens Uma abhuman rebellion of M40.5 led by Grand Uma Supremis Aurum Navis
>>97337448And it was better that way
>>97337448thats cool as fuck
>>97337448that sounds kino
>>97337442>frogposter>retarded and exposing himself as a touristname a more iconic combo
>>97337441the lectitio divinitatus doesnt say anything about sisters of battle at all, because sisters of battle in their modern form where founded in M36, thousands of years after that book was written.>>97337448Its cool to imagine it looking like a literal eye but having shit flying out of it at the same time>>97337484>no you postingokay buddy
>>97337504>no younot you said you think ALL warp travel took centuries in the old lore you fucking retardkill yourself
>>97337411warp travel is incredibly unreliable, going from the tip of a spiral arm to the opposite side of galaxy it could be assumed this would take at least years, considering warp travel relies on warp routes that act as gates that fluctuate. They open and close and often need to be remapped. You can't just fly in a straight line like its the nether roof from minecraft.
>>97337455>>97337462>>97337467>>97337504When the Eye of Terror blinked, it was safe to travel across that region of space.
>>97337512>>>97337504(You)>>no you>not you said you think ALL warp travel took centuries in the old lore you fucking retard>kill yourselfto cross the entire galaxy, yes. The galaxy is fucking huge. You being both a lorelet and an astronomylet is not my problem.
>>97337527Nope! It could take anywhere from weeks to centuries because there is no consistency to it, sorry tourist-kun~
>imperium cut in two>clearly the imperium isn't 100% of the galaxy even at its peak>crossing the imperium is comparable to crossing the whole galaxyAnd if you disagree then you are a lorelet.
>>97337448>Eye of Terror came to be because of the birth of Slaanesh>It "blinks">So it's an eye, right?>right?
>>97337527Stop please we already understand you're a tourist
>>97337532actually you are the pathetic tourist and i am the smart chad
>>97337540>The warp smells of elven queef
>>97337484>name a more iconic combolorefags and being insufferable cunts
Start calling each other baka already
>>97337527Quite, you little Twerp! Imperium starship technology is among the best in the galaxy. It can cross the galaxy in seconds should a primarch wish it.
>>97337504>the lectitio divinitatus doesnt say anything about sisters of battle at all, because sisters of battle in their modern form where founded in M36, thousands of years after that book was written.
For Chaos Space Marines, what is your big "oh fuck" unit? Like a giant model that wrecks shit.A Daemon Prince?
>>97337559trying too hard
>>97337566Silence, you are a tourist. The Imperium is so powerful partly because of their fast, efficient space travel that tames even the warp itself. You can easily read such if you did even a tiny bit of research on Reddit.
>>97337559>troonpostingPoor form.
>>97337604careful, you keep talking like that is how you get weeks of AI generated fat magnus cheeks
>>97337563Abbydabbydoo

>>97337608ahthat sucks
okey degenrates.im gonna make a modular gaming board out of xps foam sheets. there will be 6 pieces total. wich each piece being around 60x60cm.do you have any ideas of the layout? or have made anything similar?Im thinking of have a trench or lake. A hill or similar. and maybe some buildings.
Reminder that CSM played on easy mode. They have all those implants and psycho-indoctrinated mental blockers for willpower and pain resistance. The Chaos Warriors of other Warhammer settings don't get those crutches.
>>97337628Sadly, it doesn't really work with the current rules.
>>97337633And they lost on the regular to normal humans with swords and spears who wore colourful pajamas lmao
>>97337633Except none of it is reflected in their rules.
In my headcanon, there exists a Slaanesh Champion who stabs enemies to death with their penis.
>>97337563In addition to Abby the Crabby, you primarch if you have one. Maulerfiends do well in melee... for their cost.Forgefiends used to be great but are a bit costly now.Daemon Princes, especially winged, can do good in casual games. Have to use them carefully in competitive.At the very least, most daemon princes can be distraction carnifexes and draw enemy fire from your more important units.
>>97337647That's normal. Pointy sticks are a threat to power armor and grey knights.
>>97337665WEEEEEEEEEEEE!
>>97337646why?
>>97337665Orks are big retards (good)
>>97337623I'm mostly talking shit since I don't actually play CSM, but I remember the Abby Deathstar was a tactic for at least one edition and I doubt much has changed.
>>97337675Not enough closely-packed, clear plastic, L-shaped ruins.
>>97337686These days, Abby isn't a must-take anymore. And most people that do take him just have him sit in back and babysit tanks by giving rerolls (really need to bring back that Core keyword for rerolls)
>>97337687i dont give a shit about L shaped ruins. this board is for me and my friends.tournament niggers can go kts
>>97337675>>97337702don't reply to the nogames /v/ermin who perpetuate these shitposts
>>97337702I was just making a funpost but it sounds good, anon. Go for it. Just do be sure to have enough terrain to block line of sight and not have huge shooting lanes. Otherwise games will get stale as everyone camps out in what cover there is and plinks shots at the other.
A couple practical gear questions:1) I want a high quality brush with a super fine point for detail work and highlighting. Who's the best? Maybe top 5 but I will drop some money on something that will keep it's point2) this feels retarded to ask, but is there any particular tape measure brand that's especially good for tabletop stuff? cause my friend's is dogshit
>>97336935The reason many women look so attractive and have clean skin nowadays is unironically because many of them use skincare products like suncream and anti-aging shit that preserves their faces in 'youth' until they get to their mid-thirties, by which time things like creases and general wear are unavoidable.Ever seen Britbong thirty/fourty year old women in run down areas? Ever notice that some of them borderline look like trolls? The men aren't much better. These sisters look exactly like them. It's not an unrealistic or 'woke' portrayal. 40k is largely based on Britain, after all. This is just what many 'downtrodden' women end up looking like.
>>97337665how could someone not like orks
Does Big Guns Never Tire apply to Blast weapons? How do these work together?
>>97337714i’m also looking for brush recommendations. someone yesterday mentioned rosemary & co.
>>97337738By not being a ludicrous manchild
>>97337745>>97337745read the rules, maggot
>>97337749Said the nigga hanging out in the toy thread on a saturday LMFAO
>>97337746I'm not the one that mentioned them yesterday but I've been using Rosemary & Co. for a while now and they're really nice.
>>97337628something that helps greatly in keeping the sections look organically part of each other despite the modularity would be making all sections part of some mega-industrial sector, and with that frame in mind the 6 most diverse parts I can imagine involving such a board would be>enormous acid vat (with walkways that may or may not be broken in places, and perhaps some big mutant kraken swimming visible in the resin pour)>plasma energy generator (use a functioning plasma ball lamp and hide the cables and stuff with scenery, can have walkaways all around the sphere too)>scrapyard (piles and piles of junk, destroyed tanks and perhaps even a fallen titan, all dominated by a large mechanical claw hanging over the area)>spaceship building bay (one part of a voidfaring vessel being under construction/destruction/repair, complete with cutaway of the claustrophobic innards and at least one broadside macrocannon)>admech churches (tallest section of the board, tall spires, towers, statues and plenty of sniper nests)>void bomb fallout area (cordoned with weird poles, the area within is a taste of a hellscape from the warp, with craters full of skulls, floating islands, portals left and right, and, in the most ideal situation, every surface being done with magnetic sheets so you can play with models standing upside down if they're magnetised)
Opinions on using the Fuck You platform aka the one with the D cannon? Worth the points?
>>97337714>>97337746I use Da Vinci Series 10 size 0 for detail work, it keeps its tip sharp and really nice to work with. And Army Painter's Regiment Brush for basecoating stuff, I'm sure there are better alternatives to it.For very small details like the eyes, I've heard people swear by Winsor & Newton's Miniature brushes size 00 but that thing is ridiculously expensive. I don't bother painting them so can't speak from experience. Cheap synthetic ones are good for applying metallics and stuff like washes and contrasts type paints, which are hard on the brush.

Does a Ynnari Archon's "Overlord" ability apply to melee only or melee and shooting?
>>97337719>muh realismSir this is a Warhammer 40K thread.
>>97337760which ones? i looked at the website and was a bit overwhelmed.
lets say I would lightly bump into a space marine, would that e grounds for me getting my face meltaed on the spot?
>>97337779'tis a little vague is all. I say shooting and melee, opponent said melee only.
>>97337788If you were in the presence of a space marine you would not be walking into him like a gormless ape
>>97337790Shooting attacks count as attacks. It covers both.
>>97337783Series 33. pointed rounds. I use 1 for small details and 00 for tiny ones. Save those brushes for this type of work and get some synthetics for basecoating, washes etc
>>97337788No?They have the capacity to literally like hear your heartrate and shit they can tell when a person is being aggressive and when they arentThey would attribute it to human clumsiness
Seeing female custodes were added, I'm predicting it's going to be only 3-5 years more until we see female marines.
>>97337788it depends on the chaptergenerally not, even the ones who would hate you wouldn't waste a bullet or dirty their fists
>>97336298>>97336250Nevermind him. Anon os a liar. The Tau didn't have a join or die policy in 3rd edition.Their policy was live and let live. And I can prove it.
>>97337801I was right, HA! Thanks anon :)
>>97337746I generally recommend a 'long' brush if you are doing detail work. It's less likely you'll get paint stuck on the base of the bristles through a mistake such as dipping your brush in too much or slipping.
>>97337807Is that a discontinued series or do you mean their Series 313?
>>97337830Nevermind, I found them. Their website search function isn't very good.
Only the blade to go, how's the NMM on the hilt?
>>97337719What the fuck are you on about? They look like that because they are soldiers who have been through war, maybe even in the middle of combat depending on the artist's intentions. It has nothing to do with the flotsam you see down at Tesco, idiot.

>>97337719>It's not 'woke'Yes, it is, the point of sisters is to be unrealistically sexy battle nuns.
>>97337749i’m of the thought that taking this as seriously as you seem to would be more childish.

>>97337865>normal primaris bike>but chaoslame
>>97337870You just KNOW that's what they will look like thoughbeit.
>>97337769>>97337807Thank you for the recs. That got me thinking: what's the lifespan of a high quality paintbrush if you take good care of it? Do the nice ones last for life or are you always expecting to replace them every few years or months or whatever>t. Been using shitty walmart brushes for a year and an artist friend gave me an old camel hair brush. It's so drastically better than any brush I've ever tried that I finally understand scrubbing your brushes out after every session.
>>97337865Primaris are so cool. WOOF!
>>97337876gw would rather not do chaos bikes anymore or replace them with mechanical chaos steeds
>>97337882
>>97337854The Tau supplement for BFG that came out in 3rd edition explained how the Tau approach aliens. It's not join or die. Races can refuse to join them, and the Tau would just sign trade and non-aggression treaties with them.4th is the start of the join or die shit because Imperial fags can't stand people not being grimdark.
>>97337843>leotard marines
>>97337738For me it's the cobbled together look of boyz armor.
>>97337877If you take care of them properly they will last you years but no matter how well you do it you will lose the fine tips eventually. They'll still be perfectly usable for less precise work though. Best practices to make them last longer is avoiding getting paint into the ferrule, not letting anything dry on them and cleaning after every session. People also say to avoid metallics and washes/contrasts but I use these for everything if the need arises and didn't notice any difference in their lifespan. I usually have to replace the one for super detail work every 6-8 months and I paint pretty much every day.
>>97337870>>97337876The whole point of primaris and CSM refresh was to make them completely different from each other. Not that that stops GW from reusing the same primaris CAD assets from time to time but broadly speaking the ranges are meant to be unique so if they got bikes they definitely wouldn't be primaris bikes.>>97337884This anon is right though, you should be more worried about them getting helbrute'd

>>97338045I just enjoy it, not that much to it honestly. Anyway I use the Rosemaries mentioned earlier and the smaller ones from Series 33 cost like $10-$11 a piece. I do plan to give W&N a try soon though because a couple anons in /wip/ said they're better(but more expensive).
Throoders?
