The new kharadron spearhead for aos is just the old start collecting box with a different hq character, except +50% more expensive because fuck you lol. The previous spearhead was actually a "good" deal too so they replaced it of course.
They do this shit all the time.

That’s just the 40k and to a slightly lesser extent AoS “ tax “. The prices and deal are shit because they know people will buy them anyways.
Look at Horus Heresy combat patrols, they are like 15% cheaper than 40k Combat Patrols and usually have more models. Hell look at TOW battalions. This Cathay battalion is 15% more expensive than a combat patrol, comes with like 50 models and ALL of the models are brand new sculpts. Not a single repackage. At the end of the day GW is a business, and they will milk customers if they think they can get away with it. HH and TOW are games for older more veteran players, so they know they have to entice them with actual deals to get their money. It’s not so with 40k and AoS. Especially 40k where the product sells itself.

PSA the Drukhari Maelstrom box has been recalled and they're going to "destroy" all of them so do your local shop a favor and toss them a few bucks to take them off their hands.

This. The best thing for 40k long term would be a collapse that would force GW to change their strategy. We need less people joining so they don’t rely on churn and burn but rather customer retention. I am sure people will be ready to argue against me and their own best interests though.

I find that card games in general are best played casually, otherwise it turns into combo bullshit, snowballing and whatnot.
My first experiences with card games, like yugiho, was with my older brother. I was never a big strategy guy (probably some undiagnosed ADHD/autism) but he made sure I'd never want to play with him again. He recently picked up MTG and asked me a dozen times, ain't going through this bullshit again, it's been 20+ years and I know shit hasn't changed one fucking bit kek

He has a YT channel where he mentioned it.
Basically he had his dream job, then got promoted to a higher position where he did a lot less of actual game design and creation, so he decided to leave and do what he likes best.

I am too poor to start a 3rd army.
I started a iron warriors army because of all the cheap 30k models from 2nd edition and 3rd edition boxes that flooded the market.
I started a black templars army because I found a lucky facebook market posting selling $800 worth of BT stuff for $400. If I raw dog a new army, that would be the price of a all inclusive resort vacation.

MTG really attracts such awful people. I've also met thieves, pedos (actual groomer man surrounded by children constantly), sociopaths in MTG. I've met some gems, but they are quite rare where as 40k tends to be pretty chill dads mostly.

Make good use of discount boxes and LGS discounts, it's how I built my World Eaters collection
>Old Combat Patrol - $145
>Gorestorm Slaughter Pack - $200
That's $345 for 20 Berserkers, Lord Avocado, a Slaughterbound, 9 Eightbound, and 30 Jakhals. I spent another $80 on Possessed bodies to kitbash into Exalted Eightbound using leftover parts from the Eightbound in the Battleforce box, $35 on Kharn, and Angron for $140 got me 2000 points for $600.

Is $600 still a lot of money? Yes, but I didn't drop $600 all at once, I got the Combat Patrol a year before the Battleforce released. Additionally, If I were to get every mini I just listed separately I'd have paid somewhere between $900-1000 for it all from GW.

You absolutely can build certain armies for a reasonable price, you just gotta know where to look and what to look for. Some like GSC or Guard that need a million minis are shit outta luck though

Literally just buy the two EC battleforces and you have a whole ass army for $500 maximum if you pay full retail. You’re missing a few HQs and 2 rhinos and it’s like nothing. Easiest army in the entire game to collect /right/ now. But yeah get the two battleforces for discounts and use the difference to buy the HQs. It’s the cheapest possible start you could make if you wanted to buy an army new in the box and not piecemeal over time on eBay/FB Marketplace. That’s what I just did. There isn’t going to be another cheap opportunity like EC for a long time with the way the prices keep increasing regularly, And yes I do believe it is entirely possible big box products will hit a fatigue point with consumers sometime soon and the discounts will be better than they are now. That’s totally probable imo. But if you wanted to buy a whole army at once new in the box right now go for EC and spend less than 5-600$ on it USD.

What fundamentally made 40k become popular not just as a wargame (it was popular in wargaming circles pretty much IMMEDIATELY in 1987), but as a franchise is the fact that it fundamentally has mainstream appeal (it's a slap dash combination of mainstream IPs, for fuck's sake), but because it's rooted in miniature wargaming, it never got that mainstream appeal, so the fans could larp as esoterics despite actually being normies when it came to tastes. That's why you saw the cope about "40k could never appeal to the general public!" and then the past few years happened and it turns out that it does, in fact, appeal to the general public. And now we've got posts like yours. "How could muh le esoteric chud scifi franchise become so mainstream?? I should read real literature and play historicals instead!" Congratulations. You're becoming your dad. You're going down the normie path. You were always a normie. The normies were ALWAYS into 40k, and you're so retarded it has taken you this long to realize it.

I started playing 40k during 10th ed so I'm not familiar at all as to what happens when there's a new edition.

What are the chances that the units I'm playing now will be suddenly awful or outright invalid, or there will be different loadout rules and I'll have to change weapons etc?

I feel like I put so much effort in building my space men and customize them in the past year just for them to be illegal or just unplayable in a few months.

Look up all the different Knight Houses and decide on one you like the most. I did that when deciding on House Orhlacc because Purple & Gold look really nice together and I didn't have a purple army yet. I'd go with something that complements your Guard army, since that's kinda what I did with my Guard too (Purple & Blue being analogous cool colors).

Does Sigismund's fate appear in older lore or was it introduced in the Black Legion books?

RN the idea I got for my Guard army is a bit of a joke, UN peacekeepers scheme (baby blue flak, green and brown camo, white vehicles), so maybe a red Knight could be good? But I don't like how all the mechanicus knights are just red, in heresy half of the fucks were blue! Taranis and Krast were both blue, for example. Maybe yellow like Hawkshroud or white like Griffith? unsure

Not that hot of a take. The layouts are a good way to play equitably in pickup games with people you don't know well. The clear plastic posted here is absolute cancer catering to the lowest of the lowest common denominator, soulless tournament slop. But then tournament terrain has always been shit compared to making your own thematic terrain.
And still, the L-shaped ruins layouts in 10th are still MILES and MILES better than the dogshit that got used in 8th ed. This is from the London GT in 2018.

It's been a while since I painted anything 40k-related, but I'm very fond of this aspiring champion. His name is Tim and he's the first chaos space marine model I painted for the little 2e chaos project I wanted to get going last year and I like him a lot.

I think % based is conceptually fine in ToW, they just need to get rid of all the "take a special unit deathstar as almost all your core" rules, and move some special units to rare.

>>97608300
I don't really hate on tournaments for this kind of terrain, it's obviously hideous, but you try furnishing that many tables with good terrain. For mass events where just huge amounts of tables are in play, or babies first kitchen table game, that kind of thing is not too offensive.

Force org is a band aid for bad game design, ideally, you should simply want to make a balanced army list, and 10th actually, for all of it's faults, does ok at making you put together pretty non retarded lists without putting a gun to your head and demanding you pay the troop tax. The only thing that makes 10th lists ugly is how advanced the special character cancer has become.
>>
>>97608348
>It’s fine in tow
You take the bare minimum and that’s it. List building should be more dynamic than that, especially for a game like tow. Cant be assed until the game offers more than that.

>>97608368
That's more of an issue with core units being utter useless dogshit due to the game's design than force org.

It was extremely abused by waacfags, 90% of units were MSU, you couldnt take any narrative fluffy lists (the reasoning for this is stop the aforementioned unstopped waacfaggotry), and skew lists were rampant because they just released special formations that allowed pretty much every type of skew list anyway but buffed even stronger than normal.

It also was retarded because it tied unique rules to subfaction power where as the vast majority of detachments are generic and flavored to work with any subfaction.

By just saying fuck it you support narrative players to the utmost and compfags lists look pretty much the same as they always have.

While this isn't the appropriate thread to discuss it, the percentage-based army building in WHFB is not a constant, several editions didn't have it, and also highly controversial, the shift from the minimum unit requirements (e.g. 3+ core for 2000 point games) in 6th to the 25% core requirement in 8th is arguably one of the main causes of WHFBs' death.
Percentage-based core requirements aren't inherently bad, provided people can actually collect enough models to satisfy that core requirement. Good fucking luck if you played a horde army in 8th, you had to paint upwards of 70-120 models just to satisfy your core requirement. 6ths' minimum unit count requirement encouraged MSU, which is bad in its own right, but at least you could actually collect an army without being forced to paint (and more importantly buy) huge regiments of infantry unless you wanted to.

You're absolutely full of shit, you really don't need that many fucking models just to make 25% of your army unless you're playing at a retarded high points level.
The percentage was an improvement over 6th because people kept taking Elite and Rare Death Star units that were more than half their fucking army's points but still only 1 unit so it satisfied the "restrictions"

I have also played a bit of 4th, but 4th balances things by making even basic units interesting with the option to customize them a bit more than later editions.
>>
>>97608405
I played at the time and it was FUCKING rare that anyone wanted to play over 2k points unless it was an organized event to have a massive army. No one ever played 4-6k points as just a regular pickup game because they took for fucking ever.
Yes, I've done them, and it took 10 fucking hours to complete.
>>
>>97608400
You absolutely need that many for horde armies at 2k points, in fact you still kind of do with ToW unless you rely on on one of the not-really-core units they let you use a mercy to slightly prevent that problem.
>>
>>97608400
Yes, you did. If you were playing VC, skaven, TK, etc., the horde armies, you needed a lot of skeletons or zombies or clanrats or skavenslaves, and so on, even at 2000 points. Even more elite armies still needed a lot more models than in 6th. Could you use core cavalry or more elite core units instead? Sure, if your army had access to those units. Not every army did. Also, I'm not even disagreeing with you, percentage-based army building has advantages over minimum unit count, I said as much in my post. However, I don't think it's worth screwing over new players with a fat core tax even if it means preventing WAACfags from running their giga rape deathstars. We saw what happened when WHFB swapped from 6ths' style to 8ths' style of army building. People stopped buying models, anon. Though, in all fairness, that's also because GW started selling infantry models in boxes of 10. Man, that was retarded.

It’s still pretty fucking bad. It only made stuff that was strong stronger, I’m still not tempted to take chaos warriors and the strongest shit is stuff that very arguably shouldn’t even be in core to begin with.

Monsters are also still king, no matter what as well. They haven’t addressed that properly, just overkill or whatever it was. Which does make champions more needed, but I don’t care to undust my book to reclarify on how it works.

Troops are actually just good in 10th for the most part, you actually just want them unless you're doing a meme skew list or a detachment specific thing, or some super sweaty epic hero retard shit. You just need cheap guys to hold objectives or sticky objectives or objective your objectives and they're mostly well costed for the role.

>>97608439
Troops shouldn't feel like a tax. A well-rounded collection should be able to work as an effective army and the rules should incentivize that. Skew lists are a symptom of greater problems.

chaos knights should get a unit of idolators (5 tech chaos priest guys) and universal access to cultist mobs, or maybe a box of more slave-like infantry although GW is squeamish about that now, and imperial knights should get feudal infantry. It would make both armies less of a joke and also help give them slightly different character than spikes/no spikes to have infantry that serves significantly distinct purposes and aesthetics.

They should still make it playable without those units for the people who can't be fucked to do more than speed paint 9 models badly, but that would fix knights I think.

There are plenty of small differences in their tones and consistencies with each brand, some colours are pretty indistinguishable between brands, but others can be harder to match up. Best to pick a brand you like and stick with that colour from that brand.

>>97608735
There is a dramatic difference between certain brands, yea, although now that army painter is no longer dog, it's mostly a matter of taste and understanding how different brands behave and they all have uses. If you're just painting simple layer wash highlight schemes though, you don't really need to worry about it unless you get pro acryl maybe.

Since you're ignorant enough to be asking, there is also a big difference between expensive natural brushes and synthetics, and natural brushes are way worth it and honestly cheaper in the long run, and you should absolutely pick up a nice sable mainstay brush for yourself.

>>97608735
Scale75 paints are more gel based, very matte, and pigment dense. The coverage is different from what one is used to but you get stronger control over the placement of glazes.

Kimera has more pigment density than Scale75 but weaker coverage solo.

AK is very matte but not as matte as S75 and has some really good consistency between colors.

The rest are just about the same. AP isn't abysmal anymore. Vallejo has been weirdly powdery as of late.

>IK the Raptors marine chapter exists but I hate tacticool marines
I like the raptors, but I think that space marines look better if they have some flavor in their color palette, something to catch the eye. That's what originally brought me to the blue-grey. It feels military enough for me, but it's still eye-catching. Problem is, again, I keep doing blue.
The other problem is that my chapter master is posed as standing on top of a dying Space Wolf, and those guys are blue-grey as well.
The chest-pouches are mostly there to conceal some fucked knife-work.
>>97608837
You don't have to be the best painter ever to correct that issue, though. Furthermore, decalmutant clearly demands enough of himself to paint glow effects in the first place, so it's not much of a leap to demand enough of oneself to paint glow effects correctly.
>>
>>97608836
it's fine, I only use it because it's pretty fluid to flip through personally. But the free version does cock you out of making more than 1 list at a time, so make of that as you will.

A lot of the rules are free, but some random things are paywalled.
But, I don't think you can even pay for access, they want you to subscribe and also buy physical books for the code or something.

I understand your problem. Personally I'd do jade/emerald. Someone once told me I have a tendency to paint red, and how most things I paint end up being red. I took a step back and realized he was right, so my planned guard will be blue and green. The knight to go along them *might* be red, unsure atm. Red isn't even my favorite color, it's blue

I never said you said that either? Ironic you're mocking me for my reading comprehension. The original point was no matter what criticism he takes, no matter how mild or extreme, he will ALWAYS throw a tantrum, and you came to his defense for... some reason? To be le epic contrarian? Because you are him and are continuously lying? I'm leaning towards the former at the moment. You continue to argue in bad faith, which is usual for most contrarians
>>
I pulled the trigger and bought some krieg, specifically I found a cheap platoon box someone was selling in my area so I picked it up.

Any suggestions for paint schemes? I had my mind on a late war German WWI camo kind of look, but I'd love to hear what other people might have painted them to look like.
>>
>>97608799
NTA, but you're the one who's lacking information, you can actually see it done both correctly and incorrectly in this picture >>97608654
He does it more or less correctly on the left knight, but incorrectly on the right one, where the glow is all over the forehead. You don't do glow effects by just painting the area red in a radius from the source, you paint things the source can actually illuminate.

You also don't reduce the value ever when you do a glow effect, and he's used a darker red for the glow, but that's a higher level thing people mess up so I don't blame him there. Adding more light never makes something darker, it just changes the color - which is why painting a dramatic glow effect on a model that has a fairly light scheme to begin with is very tricky. Keep that in mind if you ever think "hmmm, I think I'll put a glow on this model", if your armor is very bright, it might not be worth trying!

>>97608842
Ok, but be real, the reason we're picking him apart isnt because hes' a bad painter, there are worse painters in this very thread, it's because he's an annoying defensive combative queer

>but they're just toys and this place is shit!!
You seem very bothered by not just the idea that somebody enjoys holding himself to a slightly high standard, but that people enjoy this interest, period.
>>97608874
>Someone once told me I have a tendency to paint red
I'm exactly that way with blue. Orange is probably my least-favorite color, and while I like yellow I don't particularly want to paint it.
A more saturated green is probably better than olive, because given the pouches I don't want my chapter master to be too tacticool.

a mantis warrior type green would go quite well with that and show the gore well if you're kind of going for that pre heresy world eater thing of clean armor all gored up.

Its crazy how someone pointed out that you're arguing in bad faith and you got so upset that you're now spamming the phrase. Just like the whole "trying too hard" thing.
Anyway the entire argument you're trying to make here makes 0 sense.
>Baww he doesn't agree when I say his models are the worst things ever
And then you make a post as if someone has contradicted themselves, but when questioned on it apparently you're just bringing up a total non sequitur. Not very smart are you.

>>97608887
>mantis warrior type green
I know I just said that a saturated green is probably better than an olive, but I do really like that paler color the mantis warriors have. I'll definitely consider it.

>>97608872
I don't like how much they shit on this guy since he's clearly some kind of retarded, but this mindset is really gay, anything worth your time to do at all, is worth doing to the best of your ability. If you're painting, you should do your best, and should be curious to learn how to do it well!

>>97608880
Nu krieg look like rancid dogshit.

>>97608895
i wish the models came pre assembled and painted, with modern technology i see no reason why they can't be
fuck painting i am playing the single most popular war game to date i have never cared about art or painting
>>
Fuck wargaming I am painting and modelling the single most popular minis

I said the term "bad faith" twice ITT, my """entire argument""" is that decalpedo can't take any criticism. That was *literally* my original post you replied to. No more (you)s though, you never really deserved them and I'm a fool for replying to you in the first place.
>>
>>97608836
Its nice, its far far nicer than new recruit.
I use it build lists rapidly, and to share lists easily.
I use new recruit to actually play the game on.
But ya you need a subscription(this is also the warhammer TV subscription) AND AND to have bought the fucking codex. And dont bring any fucking allies. Because say you are playing CSM, with some noise marines, and a Knight or wardog, now you need to buy 3 fucking Codex.

>>97608900
Have you considered playing a video game? Perhaps magic the gathering? 40k is not a particularly good board game, certainly not good enough to play on it's own if you don't like painting.
>>
>>97608909
have you considered blowing your own head off you slimey nigger?
i do as i please, don't @ me again.
>>
>>97608906
That's retarded. GW never does learn do they...
>>
>>97608895
No, the current landraider mold is dogshit. I refuse to expend all my effort on models I dont care about. Getting them done and on the board quickly makes me happy. I play games to be happy. Not to fulfill your fathers misguided attempt at teaching you morals.
>>
>>97608744
it's just as dogshit as every other white. stop falling for the marketing
>>
>>97608911
>i do as i please
Sounds like you're not playing the game
>>
>>97608895
When it comes to just about any personal pursuit, I really can't imagine settling for "okay" instead of "good" because "people who aren't you don't care."
Imagine giving up on learning a song from your favorite band because "nobody cares."

>>97608911
I just do things I like, I find it weird you do things you don't like. Are you retarded?

The green ones do look good, I'll probably end up painting a few test ones and seeing what feels best.
>>97608896
why

Ultimately what matters most

I feel paralyzed when I see people say "just heckin paint it however you want it bro :)"
That's too much freedom

Truest marker of a retarded shitposter.
Anyway, no one is obligated to agree with criticism.

I'm going to throw in the suggestion of of ochre, or whatever the fuck you want to call this color.

>>97608926
mold is not model. The landraider is iconic and awesome looking. The mold for it is ancient, warped. I spent hours just now gap filling, and trying to get shit bent into contact. It will look great on the board, but without professional help would never look great up close.
Also I buy models I dont like very much all the time because going 0-5 against metagame sweats isnt fun. And playing CSM already means I am gimped
The hobbyist portion of the game to me is 10 maybe 15% of the fun. And 90% of what i dont like about 40k.
I am here to play a game, and I dont begrudge anyone who is here to paint, but we want different things.
>>
>>97608921
does it have to be so black and white, can't i just care less about it than i do about playing the actual game?
>>
>>97608906
I remember when they first brought it out people genuinely thought they were finally moving away from the shit fucking codex system. I honestly did too, they were doing lots of crazy moves.

It's also retarded, there are a lot of powerful heuristics to making a model look good (which is polite to your opponents), and abiding by lore at least roughly requires certain paint schemes typically (which is also polite to your opponent.

>>97608933
The new ones aren't "rancid", but they're lacking a certain aura the resin ones have for sure. I guess the newer ones are less world war 1 melancholy in space, and more action man. The plastic ones look great in person though and 99% of people can't do the resin ones justice as painters.

They completely fucked the gas masks, similar to picrel, and generally made everything rounded off and babyish.
They no longer have a striking design with a bit of edge to them, now they just look uninspiring and lame.

holy newfag

people talking big game about pushing their art to the limit with their paint by number plastic toys
artfags need to go make real art like movies or sculptures and leave us the fuck alone with our board game for children
i will be here until you learn to be a little more humble you guys were talking mad shit for a bunch of autistic failed men on 4channel dot com
>>
>>97608959
They weren't hard to paint. Resin is just a shitty material to paint over.
>>
>>97608948
I simply don't understand why you pick 40k if that's your mindset, 40k is just not a very good game. The codex cycle balance sucks, and the core rules just don't create a game with a lot of depth. It's ok, but if I didn't love painting and I didn't have an autistic love for the setting, I wouldn't even dream of bothering with this shit.
