>>97737047Kek, little birdie is about to get his wings clipped by a booby trapped termie, enjoy the Warp rape lil fella.
>>97737037Good, gotta do my green orb blending and the base then I'm done. Hopefully I'll get it finished this weekend. Doesn't look dissimilar enough from my last modelpost for a new pic yet though.
>>97737062Looks clean, I like it.
>animu OPNonononono it was supposed to be femboy not gay!
>>97737054Yep. Biggest stick I've got for the astartes. In the meantime I'm working on my Lhykhis telefrag piece.>>97737066This is the fifth time you've tried this exact cope and it becomes less graceful every single time.

>>97737044>Playing 40k on psychedelics That sounds miserable unless its <1000 points
Anyone got any more hiphop mechanicum beats to listen to while I paint some models?
>>97737037Its pretty much done, not overly happy with it but its ok. The big stick is a log on the base thats a bit harder to see from this angle
GW has fucked up ANOTHER elf box with a missing sprue. This time it's the Falcon sprue missing.
>>97737115Here's some hip hop, watch out it has a drum beat!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6120QOlsfU

>>97737118Im sure its frustrating but anon its the Eldar…who cares?
>>97735828>just use the base color from the inside to thin down the highlightsfairly obvious now that I think about it, but I’m glad you mentioned it because I used it to trim down the power klaw which I felt was looking pretty rough.
>>97737094Whatever happened to balls needing to touch for it to be gay?
>>97737118The combat patrol is a wave serpent why would they include the falcon sprue :^)

Anyone notice how the mutant plays the two most deformed and flawed first founding chapters? Pure pottery if you ask me.
>>97737115Here's a track sourced directly from the deepest, darkest Congo. https://youtu.be/PGrxHO-B2TY?si=s_MC5hD1FhQCWb3g
>>97737142Lol
>>97737118Unless GW replaces the entire kit they're support will fuck up spectacularly. I once got a sparten from FW and they sent me two left side tracks, I contacted their support with photo's and for the next couple months they kept sending me more left side tracks, and the one time they finally sent me a right side track it was for a fucking sicaran, and that was the day i went with recasters.
>>97737138He only plays against himself so his little mating dance is for naught unfortunately
What skin tone and hair color should I make Lhykhis? I'm leaning toward picrel.

>>97737037>policy which lasted less than 10 years before Taft fucked it up with cronyism/conservatism and then wilson fucked it up with progressivismThe problem with the US is that its government is too transient and policies literally just shift from president to president, which bureaucrats take advantage of to skim off the top (deep state) and enact policies no one likes (30 years of involvement in the middle east).

>>97737139I am he.
>>97737158yeah its the Ultramarines
I got into 40k with the sole purpose of getting a femboy gf. Sad to say I should have gotten into other hobbies. You niggas are fat.
>>97737132Still on the rough side but you'll improve with practice, of course. Definitely an improvement.
When it comes to filling the more substantial gaps in model kitbashes, am I good with greenstuff or am I better off switching to putty?>>97737170It's too late, I've already kitbashed the voidscarred soulweaver head onto her body.Honestly the assembly part of this project is impressively fast given how much I hate assembly. I'm almost at the stage of building the telefragged space wolf.
>>97737187Holy shit Im dealing with literal chimps
>>97737193>telefragged space wolfYou won me back, proceed
>>97737188Femboys don't play wargames, they play overwatch or some shit bruh
The Ultramarines and Dark Angels are better than the SW and BA because not only do the former two have pure geneseed they are also unassociated with the Mutant.
>>97737199With pleasure, king. Now, do you have a preferred skin tone for eldar women?
>>97737118damn, guess I should have bought one for free box after recall.>>9773717140k doesn't have presidents.
>>97737209>brown_elf_chart.jpg
>>97737204Nobody cares what you think
>>97737188Yeah femboys don’t play war games. I guess MAYBE you could find a femboy miniature painter in instagram somewhere? I’d look in other hobbies. Found my bf in MtG 12 years ago
>>97737118>>97737142I mean, if you think about it this is kind of three elf fuck-ups in a row- Skyreavers missing rules for kit options that were advertised as being Real Weapons- Drukhari box missing a full unit *and* fucking up basing- Now a sprue missing from an Eldar Combat Patrol?Quality control has gone wrong somewhere
>>97737213Based. I'm going to go for something on the lighter side of things so that it has enough contrast against her body suit.
>>97737214I care
>>97737217Apparently it's a missing sprue for just the falcon turret, but you can build a wave serpent Apparently the instructions in the combat patrol don't include any instructions on a falcon option.It might be that the warcom/webstore text is wrong this time.
Test
This is my first model I've done highlights to. I've only done metal necrons before. I did this guy with my World Eaters. I did black with dark blue highlights. Did I go too heavy with the blue? I kinda feel like I overdid it but I may be being to judgy on myself. Any criticism is appericiated.
Thoughts?
Here is the back
>>97737265nope, no thoughts
The Horus Heresy was the best time to be alive for the average human Post-Age of StrifeThe novels have implied that the Horus Heresy saw soldiers die on the scale of trillions, in a conflict of a decade or so. That's the most peaceful period of known galactic history. That's at the very least an order of magnitude less slaughter than the average year of the Great Crusade (which was the most well-oiled genocide machine in human hisory), and it's certainly more peaceful than any random year from the 40K era.It turns out that if you interrupt the bureaucracy and logistics of an ultra-fascist galactic genocide project, and have all the transhuman space monsters focus on killing one another, you give the common man of the Galaxy a real breather.The Horus Heresy was certainly the worst period of Imperial history for Astartes and Primarchs and Custodes. It was also a terrible period for any Terran aristocrat, any character with a name, or any world that book-readers have heard of. For an average "normal civilian", though, it was an era of unprecedented peace, prosperity, and relatively loose leashes. Most humans worlds experienced nothing happening at all, most actually prospered, which is as good as it gets.
>>97737271tl;dr
>>97737271/hhg/ is over that way
>>97737265Why are 3rd party models usually so overdesigned and busy?
Anybody have any Gerascene host shit or photos?
>>97737156Eldar are white/pale. Brown eldar is retarded bs
>>97737261Seems fine to me, it's more blue than black but that's not a bad thing.
>>97737062That is indeed a big stick
>>97737273the Horus Heresy was a good thing for the average person in the Imperium apparently
>>97737291Retardedly hot* I think you meant to say
>>97737137You were told the Emperor created the Primarchs but it was actually a humble Lexmechanic by the name of Cogtavius LeKang. He created them for the Emperor on Mars during the 27th Millenium to help unify the galaxy. The racist Emperor however took all the credit and later accused him of tech heresy so he would be expelled from the Machine Cult. To this day Imperial textbooks do not give LeKang the credit he deserves.
the dark eldar are a bluish grey with red eyes
>>97737283The average STL sculptor despite being skilled is yet to be smart enough to comprehend that less is more when it comes to sculpting minis meant to be painted.
>>97737308They are routinely described as ghostly pale. I'm not sure about the eyes though.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>97737072Thanks, anon.>>97737294Right? I feel like it fits the theme nicely

What do you imagine you dudes doing on the battlefild while playing? Are there any signature moves/leader speeches/bro chatter/manner of killing or executing enemies etc. What do you imagine when your dudes to stuff?
>>97737361I fant- I mean imagine my wolfbros getting dacked and bent over each time I remove a model, raped out of the fight by more superior xenos opps.
>>97737361Everyone’s in assless chaps and the only ones with out an erections are the ones who keep whiffing their rolls.
>>97737361I imagine them having huge gay orgies. I play Space Wolves.

Space Wolves might be gay, but are they zesty?

>>97737037Done. I’ve posted my Plague axeman enough, though. I’ll repost him when collageanon puts up the anchor post. I’m on to kitbashing some more dudes to paint.

>>97737414kek been a while since I saw this
>>97737361Ignoring all the gay niggas itt, I imagine my dudes chanting prayers to Nurgle, plucking maggots off of themselves and stuffing them into the injuries of wounded enemies and chuckling as enemy gunfire and attacks do little more than spill more infectious material on the field.
>>97737418What gaylord question you dumb faggot, I just wondered if anyone has interesting battle behavior fluff they imagine their army doing. Just got thread persona schizo replies and mentally ill coomers
>>97737419Sallies
>>97737378Going to do anything with the bases or just leave them plain? Very nice so far, I'd like to start a GSC sometime in the future.
Is there a xenos army that is relatively elite? I like Custodes, but a friend plays them and I don't want to double up on armies. Looking to expand past marines and tau but want something smaller size.
>>97737361They do this to prisonersKrieg btwhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwedentrunk
>>97737432Eldar wraith shit? I haven't actually looked at how points heavy and elite they are but
>>97737419Zerk with the zweihander
>>97737428Trying to get a full ~500 pt army group painted to do some battles with the cadian guard, after that either dust it in some old snow, or sand
>>97737037so what's the rules?do we paint a new one specifically for the collage or can we use models we've had for a while? I've got a lot I've never posted anywhere ever.
>>97737448Can't go wrong with either. When I make mine I am thinking of doing an urban concrete flavor. I'd like to make a 500pt GSC that I can slap some of my Guard army into as their 1/4pt ally allotment for some flavor at Weekly's.
>>97737437wraiths aint elite anymore, they're less points than a tactical squad at this point in the edition.
>>97737037The only stick I have is a literal Ent from D&D does that count? I can stick a bolter and chainsword in his hands
>>97737432Monstermash TyranidsOops all CTan NecronsWraith EldarMeganob OrksVotann big gunsTau suit and tank spamBasically just GSC and DE don't have elite options
>>97737420Oh I'm great fun at parties yeah, if I catch a whiff of 40K discussion I ask their factions and if it's anything chaos/xenos I show them the anger of Russ! Let off a big aaaWOOOOO!!! and slap their ass out of the house haha isn't it so fun to larp :)
Has there been another price hike? I was looking at tyranids because I was thinking about getting back into the game and immediately started reconsidering. The prices are dumbfounding
>>97737454Ah, well never mind me then. Krorks when?
>>97737458You'd think he raped your mother with how much he has a stick up your asshole. Your autism is immeasurable.
If GW were to write an instance of human male x Eldar female romance (not rape) in lore, how would you have them do it?
>>97737014Leave this to me.

>>97737464What does my nigger Jinzo have to do with this?

>>97737467I think Swedes left an imprint of Germans with this. Whenever I see scat shit posted about here or in news it's always Germans
>>97737419Bladeguard ancient. Mine was really fun to paint.
I've got a single Titus mini to build and paint. What color scheme should I do him? I dont like the ultramarines colors very much. I like the tan termies the one guy has but I don't wanna copy. Fire hawks look cool but I'm not sure I could do the flames justice.
>>97737452I've got the combat patrol, plus a few various mechanicus boxes to kitbash tf out of, I'll probably be dumping more onto the board as the army progresses

>>97737548Im painting some blasties this weekend, what do you have scheduled? :)
Anyone here actually paint tormenter marines? I love the Adrian Smith art of them but the pink is a bit of a turn off for me. Any recs on how to make them look like picrel?

>>97737592I get random Japanese accounts posting 40k models on twitter occasionally. The lead writer for the VN Demonbane painted Death Guard minis years ago.
>>97737572I mean I play Necrons and my Marine opponents just burst down my C'tans with 10 man Int squads with Lts/Cpts and then clean the rest but thats when someone plans for me. When your opponent is clueless and going into it blind its kinda hard to counter the crons right now my peep.
>>97737592that's all my youtube feed has been lately. between 40k stuff and vtubers it somehow thinks i want to watch auto-dubbed japanese women talk about how to make lava bases for space marines

>>97737735Blood Angels
>>97737724We have to ration green stuff now. Please be more considerate.
>>97737682>Looking to expand past marines and tau but want something smaller size.Not sure you read his post closely enough anon.
>>97737732Good point. And it's not like I greenstuff often enough for it to matter. And now Lyhkhis' hair is done and looking fairly decent. I'll start working on the telefragged space wolf tomorrow, unless I get caught up oil-washing stuff.
>>97737037all done fren ! it was fun to paint but im moving on to batch painting a few squads !
>>97737765Sis...
Everyone knows Orkz love to loot Commissar hats from the Guard and helmets from the Space Marines, what do they like to loot from everyone else? What does an Ork who killed a Necron or Tyranid even take?
>>97737729Eldar, any kind
>>97737765strip it and start again
I've rage-uninstalled Dark Crusade for the second time because of its shitty programming and how annoying necrons are.
>>97737735yeah Blood Angels
>>97737765Picasso doesn’t hold a candle babe
>>97737782DC necrons are so damn cool.
>>97737782It's not that bad? But also vent to /vg/ about it, not here
>>97737775I have come to really like eldar.>>97737783It's a shame that BA do the vampire thing so shittily. Night Lords do a better job at it.
>>97737788It's neat seeing the older designs again. Dark Crusade broadside battlesuits were so perfect.
>>97737782Did the Lord rez himself in the middle of your base and pop the nightbringer ult lmao
>>97737795night lords don't really do the vampire thing, aside from the bat motif. They're psycho killers
>>97737806That's my point.
An Eldar flyer with a rear facing monofiliment weapon that flies in front of enemy planes and shits a wire net that slices it to ribbons.
>>97737802It could do that couldn't it
>>97737810
>>97737765It’s fucked but I love it. Reminds me of my first banner. I suggest practicing a few times on a primed plastic spoon or piece of cardboard din the future tho.
>>97737815They can do that, yeah. My usual tactic when playing was to run the lord into their base and get him killed, then rush the tech tree for res shit. Res leader, tp in a bunch of flayed ones, gg.
>>97737782Just play Tau and laugh as your kauyon upgraded fire warrior deathball obliterated anything visible form half the map away.
>>97737829I was playing Tau and I realized basically only necrons and imperial guard could face down a wave of gun drones.
>>97737494
>>97737836What was your army my brother?
>>97737836Guard's capability to turtle should not be underestimated. I remember playing a 6 player free for all online back in the day as Tau, the donut map with starting spots all in a ring. I was placed next to SoB and someone else I forget with the IG player directly across from me, so naturally I couldn't easily get to the guard player early and instead had to fight my neighbours... Game was drawing to a close with just me and guardbro left, I jumped stealth suits in the back and siege the front of his base just to find it fucking covered in turrets. I lost.
>>97737845Fire warriors, stealth suits, and gun drones. Maybe a broadside if I was fancy and vespids if I had to detect.Seriously though like three squads of gun drones would just float past squads and blow up HQs. I could try harder difficulties but those stop being fun basically instantly.
>>97737856The CPU outright cheats on higher diff, pumping out units and advancing through the tech tree faster than physically possible. It's really not worth it.
>>97737847Turtling is why I stopped playing rts games against actual people. It's like playing stall-fags in pokemon it's just lame.
>>97737847Yeah, always punish guard early.I love that map with the close bases cut of by a valley, it's basically a test to see who can get out jump units first.
So I can't find ant examples of skin or flesh colored armor for space marines. I believe I will attempt the armored ballsack. Really probably should be a chaos marine. Like a night lord who got a little too into flaying.
>>97737567Nta, but in the 6 months it's taken him to not paint a squad of hellblasters, I've painted over 1500 points of models. If it's been this long, it's probably not even worth acknowledging anymore.
>>97737857There's a certain appeal to facing something like that but Dark Crusade does not have the format for it. Halo Wars, of all things, once you're on max difficulty, was when it would go insane. In a 3v3 Legendary (199) match if you didn't defeat a computer within 6 minutes you just straight up lost even if it took another 20 to actually get killed.
>>97737869>MFW I chose CSM to get back into 40k because I figured a lower model count would mean faster painting
Played against some Necrons last night, 1000pt game. I kinda forgot how durable they are and ended up losing but just barely. Hearthband is a really good detachment and leans into what makes Votann good, as in, shooting the first thing in front of you.
>>97737857>>97737872When we had lan parties in college, we would play 4 v 3 insane Ork CPU, the green tide was real.
Any links to the episodes of the Adepta Sororitas Penitent series?
>>97737882Brutal
>>97737882I'm jelly, I would try to play with the one friend I had who also played DoW but he'd pussy out and set all these restrictions.>couldn't play against each other>had to be on a team against the comp>couldn't bump up cp difficulty past a certain pointEnd result was just these dull games where we painted the map, no challenge.
>>97737883You’re mine
What is the in-universe lore for why almost no one uses airplanes or whatever to easily win battles, and always just rely on infantry and tanks?
>>97737765I agree with >>97737822, practice makes perfect and save your centerpiece for last. I'm still trying to get painting the red scorpion down. Something I'd also recommend is thining your paints more. Try to mix it with a little bit of water so it doesn't clump up and leave brush strokes. Also pro acryl white is a better whote paint than what citadel/gw offer.
>>97737878
>>97737881Necrons is a tough one at 1k because if they all-in on durability, you just won't have the damage to kill them and still play the game.
>>97737898Because airplanes usually don't do shit for ground engagements unless it's a bomber leveling the horizon.
>>97737898Because everyone else also has flyers. This isn't real life where one country has the 2 best airforces in the planet and can shit bombs on everyone else unopposed.
>>97737898Same reason you get guys running around with chainsaws in the middle of an artillery duel; it's cool.
What's the modern lore reason for the Armageddon Steel Legion not fighting on Armageddon and instead just letting Krieg and Cadia do everything?
>>97737859Building cool bases and big armies is the entire point of the genre.>nooo you have to harass workers and click attack move 500 times a second to abuse pathfinding andNah I'm gonna build a cool base.
What's the lore reason for space marine being hella homosexual and bumming each other on ultramar?
so when is the 40k reveal at adepticon? tomorrow? or the weekend?
Whats happening on the table to illicit this reaction from you?
>>97737898There is an entire spin-off game that focuses on air battle in the 41st millennium...
>>97737898Aircraft are in a strange place lore-wise, they are very much present but they tend not to be a major player to a ground battle - With the exception being Thunderhawks by virtue of association. I think it's as simple as it isn't very interesting to write "and then some bombers blew them all the fuck away from 40,000 ft". But like the other anon said, both sides have them, so if a hundred bombers is hitting your ground army out in the open, you have already lost the war.
attempt number 2 on the next banner. it's a dragon but looks like a bird lol
>>97737942the dates and times are listed on the adepticon website
>>97737935I liked ocd lining up all my plasma generators with my research buildings and then making a forward base by the one listening post I can get closer to an enemy's base so I don't have to walk units across the whole field. It's too bad Tau didn't get turrets and you had to waste broadsides.
>>97737948Looks like a green dog wearing sun goggles to me.
>>97737944What is this marvelslop? Get out of here with that shit
>>97737946And it went oop because nobody cared.
>>97737934Shattered by the Third War for Armageddon and Season of Blood happening back to back. The actual answer is that they don't sell the models anymore and the recent trailer was mainly reusing assets for the Guard 3D models. Iirc the Armageddon campaign book last year had a throwaway line about the Armageddon and Tallarn Regiments being kept back as an armored mobile reserve.
>>97737948These are honestly adorable. Like something a proud parent would stick on the fridge with a magnet lmao
>>97737948the dragon on muh banner
>>97737934Can't put something on screen if you don't sell it. That's a stupid business decision.
>>97737948Looks more like a dawg to me too kek. I'm honestly just surprised you have blank banners to paint, ultrasmurfs typically just have molded detail on their banners.
>>97737959
>>97737934Most engagements involving IG utilise several different regiments in combined ops. Read any guard book, nigga. Also meta/business wise, this >>97737966
>>97737759>>97737944Are we evoooooding again?
>>97737959Ahh figured they were just reusing assets, I've seen the same ork commando at least four different times in the past few years. Shame that they've been sidelines but I guess it's slightly better to fade away then to be raped into a shallow parody by redditors and nomodels
>>97737336I got one for free.
How did you choose your second army? I’m thinking of collecting something new in 11th,
>>97738003What do you have already?
>>97738003What do you have? Normally I would recommend something you can easily ally in just to have more list building options
>>97737909That was basically my experience against them to a tee. I could handle his damage pieces pretty well, but the lychguard + character brick he put up the middle of the board was pretty much unkillable between its innate durability and character/stratagem support. I'm gonna finally have a full 2k Votann list soon though so hopefully at larger games it'll even out.
>>97737982>>97737974It's not like Armageddon was defended only by the Steel Legion in the previous wars.
>>97738016Man, remember when Elysian Drop Troops were the hottest shit, I member.
>>97738005>>97738010No bully but I have 4000 points of Ultramarines I collected in just the past year. I have no regrets with this army but I want something else to start collecting/ take to the store so I have some variety.
>>97738021my first instinct when picking a second army was to try to do the polar opposite of what I was doing previouslyi.e. vehicles > infantry, Ranged > Melee, etc.
>>97738033that’s kind of been my thought process, but since ultras are the “do everything” chapter it’s kind of hard to find the polar opposite.
I hate putting these fuckers together
>>97738037you can also go thematically different so its something more interesting to paint, ultras are pretty plain and flat, you could do nids or chaos for variety in painting techniques and hobbying opportunities. Both are natural enemies to ultras which is also another consideration, I use bits from my first army as battlefield debris between it and my second army. so that narratively they are nemessis (also since i have all the spare bits on hand easily). Having a second army that is tailored to counter/compliment your first can help if you're ever in the position to introduce a newbie to the game.
>>97738021>4k points of ultragay in under a yearOh wow, lol. Lmao even. There's probably two main trains of thought to go on when picking up another army though.>pick something that can be allied when they do ally rules>in this case mechanicus, some other imperial subfaction, maybe eldar>pick something completely different for a new experience>for this case probably something xenos>>97738037Eldar? They're very specialised in what each unit does. Or maybe something like orks/nids who only do melee good, or tau who only tend to do shooting good.
>>9773703760% there. Hopefuly do 10% every day.
What exactly are the Custodes that makes them superior to space marines, without being at all space marines?
>>97737037Going pretty well, probably just gonna focus on a few more details since resin can be annoying to paint.
>>97738057Do some research? Almost like there are multiple wikis you could check for that info
>>97737540what about hyena vtubers
>>97738047I actually did pick up a box of csm to paint some Word Bearers to contrast my Ultras, but after painting one i realized i don’t need more Space Marines.I have been looking at Eldar and Votann.
>>97738066Yeah I thought about chaos but it did cross my mind that it'd just be more mahreens.
>>97738065What about my foot up your ass
The death guard combat patrol came. Immediately began painting the stinkyman.
>>97738074Yeah i’m a fucking retard so what
>>97737807>>97737806Night Lords are BATMAN and nostramo is gothamBaal is egypt and the blood angels are WoD vampires wandering in the desert with the angels in biblical times.
>>97738084>Baal is egyptProspero would like to have a word.
>>97737982>>97737959Would it really have been so hard to release a steel legion regiment to go with yarrick though.
>>97737973is this from the armageddon book?
>>97737037Started to paint it yesterday
>>97738101What is that pose? Are you a footfag?
>>97738101What is the lore explanation behind wearing a gas mask but leaving all your arms and legs exposed?
>>97738021jesas did ya paint all those guyslmao
>>97738116this is my most recent family photo. I have more.
>>97738041I think you're doing it wrong
>>97738058Wait, I didn't think this model was out. What's it called?
>>97738089Baal is the desert part of egypt where people were wandering in the desert, which is why The Blood are nomads in the desert. More than one thing can be egypt, like necrons.
>>97738109The gas is caustic to internal soft tissues but not skin, like aerosols.
>>97738121Bruh, Zardu and is blade slaves have been out for over a decade now.https://www.warhammer.com/en-AU/shop/Zardu-Layak-and-Blade-slaves-Bodyguard?queryID=9ffdb38862340df946ec82117a17c7dd
>>97738119this guy looks like a lord of contagion
>>97738102The base has tactical tau headNo>>97738109Don't have one I just don't want to paint the face
>>97738124you know not all deserts are Egypt, right?
>>97738128have you never seen the axe praetor from HH?
>>97738128He’s actually a 30K praetor. I use him as a Judiciar.
>>97738132Okay bud I'm gonna explain real simple like- so Baal is named as such because he was a god of the ancient near east, in the levantine region that was part of the egyptian empire. And in this region you have nomads and shit wandering in the fucking desert, like how Moses wandered the deserts of Sinai (PART OF EGYPT) for 40 years until he died. And the angels and vampires are because in Vampire the Masquerade and that other franchise with Aaliyah before jay z murdered her and the comic series I, Vampire had vampires start in ancient Egypt and shit where the primordial cities where. This is why they are angels and vampries in the deserts where the Jews I mean "The Blood Tribe" wander. This isn;t a complicated reference.
>>97738139so Baal is Israel?
>>97737450You finish the model during said month.
>Tau actually deliver on having many auxillaries of different races besides Kroot>Eldar now have Corsairs and Exodite options>Ork clans have different rules>Dark MechanicusChoose one .
>>97738154Dark Mechanicus since we've gotten bit's of everything else so far, i just hope they bring back subfactions rules.
Are you peer peep or a simian freak?
>>97738041>noticeable mould slip on the hat on the left and the horse head on the rightPlease tell me these are recasts or something
>>97738154Of the options, Exodites, but also Traitor Guard.
>>97738141Yes and sanguinius is jewish.
>>97738165Every one of them that I have made so far have this awful line going down the middle of the horse. They are have huge gaps that are so unsightly
>>97738171makes sense.
>>97738154>>Eldar now have Corsairs and Exodite optionsEldar already have corsairs.>>Ork clans have different rulesThis one doesn't seem meaningful.>>Dark MechanicusI don't understand this one because you can grab skitarii bits and slap them on your cultists and grab vox machinator for your counts-as evil techpriest and a bunch of daemon engines.What does Dark Mech have specifically besides the shit that already exists that is dark mech tech coded?>tau
>>97738120whatever do you mean
>>97738058dont you have a cyclone to dodge?
>>97738180Nah, that's just up north, all i've had to deal with is moving cattle between paddocks incase they flood.
I've been thinking up more lore of /mydudes/ and here's the gist of it>Marine chapter gets stuck in the warp>The ship's navigator intended to sacrifice the whole ship to ascend to daemonhood>Captain interrupts the ritual and ascends instead, becomes a Daemon Princess of Tzeentch>The deal is that she retains most of her mind and free will but must pay with her memories>However, she figures out she can simply take the memories of others to pay the toll>The chapter, now the war and Sons of Polaris, follow her not just out of loyalty, but out of the fact that she has taken the memories of them being loyal to anyone but her>The toll has grown over time, and out of desperation, Polaris has been taking and mindwiping marines and cultists of different warbands to delay the inevitable day when Tzeentch leaves her a thoughtless husk like the hundreds of thousands of victims of her power
>>97738194>Daemon princessCringe
>>97738197Oh yeah I want a fucking shirtless manbird with big birdman man nipples yeah
>My GW has a Dark Eldar player but there's not a single Tau playerAre Tau not a popular army?
>>97738210Tau were the most hated army for ages and I doubt will ever recover, newfriend. I don't think you understand how bad things truly get
>go on ebay>the prices scalpers are listing new gw products at are the same prices as just buying the kits individually
>>97738201they're called mipples.
>>97738194>Daemon PrincessBased, waifu that shit up
>>97738194Do you think you'll use a different model to represent her?
>>97738093>Would it really have been so hard to release a steel legion regiment to go with yarrick though.Unironically yes. But I am guessing.Space Marines (loyal and chaos) keep the lights on at GW and there is probably a really silly internal business series of bureaucracy that has to be traversed through to get anything that isn't marine related approved of by GW. A lot of it comes to whether something sells or not or will hopefully sell well. And quite frankly while marines are a guaranteed series of sales that will meet expectations, it is less so for anything else.
>>97738194Wait so the navigator and the captain fused?
>>97738382>And quite frankly while marines are a guaranteed series of sales that will meet expectations, it is less so for anything else.Yeah but this is the formerly most popular imperial guard variant tied to a specific camapign and their most popular imperial guard character, surely a single kit or an upgrade sprue would not have been some huge undertaking in autocad.
Who else up checking 40kg between sets at the gym rn
>>97738210Local metas are weird, man. I was the only chaos player at all in mine for years. Everyone else was playing loyalist marines, IG and Tau. My local store owner took a good chunk of cash off my first bulk purchase of CSM there as thanks for finally getting some of those models off his shelves.
vashtorr is fucking retardedpotential man of 40k>look for weapon from the war in heaven>dick around in the webway with abaddon even though he supposedly hates chaos>the weapon (which is just called "the weapon" because names are hard) will supposedly destroy the imperium and lead to him ascending to the level of the big four chaos gods, despite this not being abaddon would want because he supposedly doesn't want chaos to control him and only follows them for power>even if they find the weapon and use it on terra, it will still kill him because of the talisman of seven hammers>and he's just way too important for the other chaos gods to kill him because reasons
What is up with Mike Brooks adding LGBT into all his stories? It's like a fetish to him.
>>97738402Gym bros checking in, I’m doing the bike today though need to work legs

I can't decide on whether I should get an Intercessor squad or a HH tactical squad for painting practice. It would make sense to buy an HH kit since it has more minis but the Intercessor squad can be used as part of an army

>>97738674That's not a lot of mk7 helmets.Unless you only want to replace a couple of helmets with mk7s.I'm thinking of getting the two SW kits but I'd rather wait for 11th ed to see if GW gives more armor variation, if not then I know what to do.
>>97738646>Exodties would print money.
>>97738646>Exodties would print money
>>97738685I don't know where the perception that Eldar aren't popular came from when they've always been one of the larger ranges. Probably because they had ancient models for a very long time and old players weren't buying new stuff while new players weren't really getting into the faction because they looked so old and were waiting for updates for twenty years or so. But now they're one of the most modern ranges in the game and have tons of variety to choose from.
Centaur knights WHEN?
>>97738699because autists like to extrapolate that due to marines being the most shoved in faction means no other faction, and a non-imperial faction at that, can have any claim to popularity
>>97738685>regular eldar are popularOh my, no.
>>97738646small new factions like genecults and votann, or some aos stuff, fail to take off because they can't build a large enough roster out of the gatethe small factions that do manage to have a measure of immediate success are the ones that focus on few models of elite unitsand the ones that are ridiculously overpowered for a time at launchso the 3 things exodites have to do are:>don't waste kits on basic infantry units, go balls in on as many and as diverse, and ideally multikit, boxes of dino riders; raptors, ceratops, trex, pterosaur >don't force them to stand exclusively on their own, craftworld eldar players should be allowed and encouraged to add these new units as part of their army, on top of making the exodites viable independently or allowing exodites to take some other eldar units>do NOT forget that exodited are also the eldar knights-titans faction; make a bright stallion as the army centerpiece
>>97738702This is stupid in a good way.In a better world we'd have a "make your own knight" chart with wacky options like these
>>97738646Just buy AoS dinos and put your eldar on them. I don’t see how expedite models would be distinct enough. Unless they make the dinosaurs robots or something.
>>97738699>I don't know where the perception that Eldar aren't popular came frommentally ill marinefags with inferiority complexes project that unpopularity as a way to cope, so they can vent their frustrated selves by mean of "bullying"

What's the thinking man's faction? Thousand Sons? Sisters? Eldar?
>>97738685Dark Eldar don't count as part of Eldar for purposes of discussing popularity of a faction. They are a different faction. Combined, sure, they are something like 5% of the player base. But they are not part of Codex Eldar and never have been. Harlequins, Corsairs, and Ynnari can get a pass because they are in fact part of the codex.
>>97738734TS? Emo. Sisters? Effeminate. Eldar? Homosexual. The ‘thinking man’ faction is obviously Tau
>>97738738Regular eldar are like 5 times more popular than de.

>>97738734>"thinking" man's factionnonchaos marines (includes iron warriors)>thinking "man"'s factionsadmech, thousand sons, cryptekrons>thinking man's "faction"genecults>thinking man's factionorks
>>97738734Apparently World Eaters. You have to perfectly plan out your charges and ensure you're finagling the best matchups since once they're stuck in there's no take backsies
>>97738749World Eaters are one of those deceptive difficulty factions because they have a low skill floor but a high skill ceiling. You will absolutely push some people's shit in by just rushing down the board and fighting on death through everything but at higher skill levels people will know how to play around that and punish you for committing too early or often. They're very good but there's definitely lots of counterplay around them too.
>>97738738are you suggesting that dark eldar add a significant amount of popularity to eldar? because if you consider dark eldar significantly popular enough then you cannot argue in good faith that regular eldar aren't decently popular already on their own by virtue of being massively more popular than dark eldar, they're not split equally, never been
>>97738734Imperial guard
>>97738734>What's the thinking man's faction?Space Marines unironically.Knowers know.
>>97738759>>97738744Regular Eldar are definitely a lot more popular but it's not like an 85-15 split. It's more like a 60-40, with Harlequins included.
>>97738738they will retort with DEldar sheets being in the codex but that's purely due to ynnari>>97738734what kind of thinking man? actual tactics on field? then go for something pure melee like WE (futureproofing) or SoS dark eldar. Comboing abilities to squeeze out as much juice as Gladius Task Force or grizzled vets gets by default? Votann, orks, sisters. "In the end it's just dice luck"? Orks or whatever the fuck you like
>>97738732Would be perfect kitbashing material for EC enjoyers desu
>>97738761Some styles of guard definitely can be. It legitimately takes insane levels of focus and coordination to play the 200 model infantry spam list well and it is horrifyingly good when executed efficiently.Tanks and ogryn spam is mindless though.
>>97738734Any faction if you build for vibes over who throws the best dice
>>97738772that survey says fuck all for this discussion
>>97738772>Tyranid mains less than 5% of the playerbase and only 15% collect themThis was definitely before Leviathan came out
>>97738780>ogryn spam is mindlessYou gotta rest your big lord general brain once in a while, ya know?
>>97738724An army of Exodites appeared with considerable detail in The Infinite and the Divine.
>>97738772Sure, I probably overexaggerated but I don't think Goonhammer readers represent the average player.
>>97738772The chaos marines player base must be double that by now
>>97738788Harlequins show up as separate faction so it's from 9th.
>>97738772>AdMech more popular than Imperal Guard>TSons and DG rolled into CSM>Tau less popular than EldarThese results are kinda sussy, no matter how you slice it
>>97738772So if I am understanding this right, the big bar is anyone who collects that faction at all, while the little bar is people who call it their primary faction? Because it's interesting how big the discrepancy is on guard when all the rest with big splits are allies for other factions or starter box Necrons. Is that just the leftover loyal 32 effect or maybe Kill-Team giving people lots of Krieg models?
>>97738734World Eaters. Shall I charge turn one or turn two? You must meditate on this.
>>97738846A lot of positioning for charges and counter charges and threat range assessment and target priority goes into playing a melee heavy list like that. It's a lot of fun and would recommend it some time for anyone that has an army capable of playing like that.
Are World Eaters more big brained than Blood Angels in terms of playstyle?
>>97738860in terms of being forced to make their army work and not just rely on the rest of the space marine roster, yeah.
What's up with that? Isn't the Exalted one straight up better?
>>97738860Probably? Blood angels have a lot of extra shit to fall back on that world eaters does not just by nature of having access to all the codex space marines units. Blood Angels doesn't have to get all of their anti-tank from melee in the same way that world eaters does and can still have some viable overwatch and shooting lane threats, as well as more objective play options.
>>97738860It's a case of having one thing you can do very well versus a whole toolbox suite of specialized options. When the only tool you have is a hammer, you've got to come up with some creative fucking ways to use that hammer to do a lot of different jobs.
>>97738872Read the datasheets, regular sorcerer has longer range and gives his unit lethal hits
>>97738880Weird naming convention then
>>97738881The regular one isn't "better" than the exalted one, they do different things. Pick which one suits your purposes. Gotta make every unit useful ya know.
>>97738666>there were no jew slaves who built the pyramids.I don't think the Bible claims this, just that there were Hebrew slaves in Egypt (very plausible) and that there were plagues and mass deaths (less plausible, but Egyptian historical record is massive and incomplete)
>>97737520>>97737621
>>97738885What does the "exalted" part mean in fluff? That's he hovering?
going by games played on TTB on march 5th, chosen since no wild fluctuations between last one of feb26th. Jan29th would maybe be better with both preceeding and succeeding datapoints being stable but i already wrote out the shit bellow so here it goes>all loyalist marines sum up to around 4,2k, >lion's share is generic codex at 1,5k with everything else being at from 1/2 to 1/3rd of it>all chaos marines sum up to around 3,3k, dg and basic even with others behind>knights combined at 700ish, close to even split>tau, tyranids and IG about even in 800s>necrons in 900s>non-GSC xenos outside of that tend to be in range of supplement codex of 350-550 games>imperial outliers are agents and deathwatch at 32 and 138 respectively>for elves the craftwords are indeed 59-60% with DE filling upso by what's actually played if you just axed generic space marine (impossible in game but possible in data) you'd end up with quite even split for a lot of factions with top ends at 900-800, vast majority in 500-700 bracket and some downers in 400-bellow
>>97738881Welcome to 40k
>>97738903I think it just means they're higher ranking, more respected, more powerful, that kind of thing. There's a similar thing in world eaters where the eightbound get scout 6", but the exalted eightbound don't and get deep strike instead. One isn't necessarily better than the other, they just do different things.
>>97737621>>97737520Oh hey new DF pics, cool.
>>97738906>uses percentage for eldarinteresting obscurification my friend. Eldar are a downer (400 and below) faction aren't they
Decalfag, you may not be liked here, but you would be a hit on reddit. You could make actually make friends there. Your personality suits reddit better than 4chan.
>>97738916535 for eldar, 366 for deldar, but during writing i reread the chain yapping about the split and decided to include it over the number of games, since they still fill the bracket of "non-gsc xenos" 350-550. The data is public so not like you can't confirm for yourself
>>97738906Isn't that just games played, not armies owned? Isn't it likely a lot of those players who play other factions also have a marine army too and just choose to play something else since marines are saturated?
>>97738646>would print money.lol, xeno cuckies are net deficit to GW
>>97738916He's referring to the people above saying Craftworlds were five times as popular as Dark Eldar when the data shows they're only about 1.5x as popular.
>>97738918Does reddit even have a community. Seems to me to be 1 step below Instagram where in you post pics and just get updates. No real discussion.
Are Dark Eldar more big brained than Craftworld Eldar in terms of playstyle?
>>97738939Yeah I guess, maybe he could find a nice discord hugbox instead.
>>97738918he got banned there like 9 times, reddit doesn't want him either
>>97738941Historically yes.
>>97738924yes it's games played but how exactly do you want to quantify data for ownership in unbiased way? A questionairre about ownership can be manipulated easier and it's already ass to have people fill it out once, let alone enough times to have a trend while games played are harder to mess up and people will be hammering in their games when actually playing with a proof of ownership. Could average out the trends from like a last month when I'm bored enough but rn i wanna go pick up some paint thinner and prep the space for painting also wanted to finally get to assembling my MG Astray Red Frame Kai that I've been putting off for last 2 years
>>97738950>but how exactly do you want to quantify data for ownership in unbiased way?I don't. I'm just saying the data you've collected is inherently flawed for whatever point your trying to make. If I had 2 armies ans one was marines, and I thought everyone was also playing marines I would probably play that second army.
>>97738903It's from Warhammer Fantasy, where you would have aspiring champions/sorcs (weaker and cheaper) and exalted (stronger, more expensive). I guess they really wanted to keep similar wording convention through chaos in 40K but they've long since dropped "aspiring", so we just get this weirdness.
>>97738968>they've long since dropped "aspiring"No that's chaos sergents now, rubrics captain is called aspiring sorcerer.
>>97738943He actually advertised a discord a few months ago as a place for "model posters to hang out" but I don't think anyone joined, this is also around the time he started being schizo about the female discord cabal out to get him.
>>97738974>rubrics captain is called aspiring sorcerer.Do you mean their sergeants, because their captain level unit are the exalted sorcerers
>>97738950Its not gonna be easy, but unironically a >post models with timestampwould fix this issue. Just have AI scan the photos and fill the dataset. That or manually do them, it would be long and tedious but not too difficult.
>>97738974>check out the blurb on rubrics store page>Led by an Aspiring Sorcerer who...Huh, wyld. That may just be one of the last instances of them using that title/wording, because when I say they stopped using "aspiring" I mean they dropped it from fantasy too.
>>97738995They're still called Aspiring Champions on CSM, but they did send the Exalted Champion to legend (despite having a really cool model)
>>97738950>spoilerHave fun, the seed kits are pretty chill to make but they definitely need stands if you want to display them.
>>97739004kill yourself, avatarfagging nigger
>>97739003perfect for a chosen
>>97739009Yeah I just use mine as a Heavy Weapon specialist on my melee legionaries.
>>97739003I really wish I got more exalted champions when I was younger, its such a great little model I remember picking one up as my first chaos model because I wanted a fun little painting project.
>reading 3e witch hunters codex>acts of faith are a set of powerful abilities you spend a faith point to do, and you need to roll under (or over, depends on the act of faith) the models in the unit to cast them>faith points are only gained (and be used) by faithful unitswhy the fuck did we go away from this? miracle dice sucks in comparison and everyone uses it just to bank 6s, which is a feelsbad
>>97739024Newgen don't like rolling dice because rng = feelsbad to them, so James has steadily been removing dice rolls from the game and worming in more and more rerolls and shit.
>>97739036>removing dice rolls>by adding rerolls
>>97739043Yes anon. Think a little harder on that.
>>97739043Base dice rolls add randomnessRerolls are more physical rolls but remove randomness

Had a game against a random at the local store. He had a beautiful Tyranid army fully painted. Super chill dude who gave me great advice and tips throughout my the game. I got absolutely stomped though, never played against the subterranean detachment before and was not prepared for it. I boxes myself in because I was afraid of the 6 inch charges from tunnels and ended up just getting overrun.Great game and playing against such a well painted army really makes me want to finish my sister army even sooner.
>>97739101How points was the game?
>>97739101Whoa sick looking game, hate the white terrain but the models look nice and fun!
>>977391062000 points, quite a bit of his nids are off the board waiting to ambush the sisters and vahlgons and my seraphim are in reserves. Wish I took more pictures.>>97739113Yeah the local store has tons of terrain but it's all 3d printed and unpainted. I used to host at my home with prettier terrain (unbalanced though) but with a 9 month baby at home I don't want to have noisy games that go late yet.
>>97739076Based chaos dread enjoyer.

>>97739145gotta have the brick>>97739153actual helbrute, I like chaos being as distinct as possible from loyalist space marines
>>97739165>actual helbruteNot so based after all. The old chaos dread models are the best thing in the game.
>>97739156None on the bottom floor but yes on all the ones above that
>>97739168I don't wanna use models from before I was born tbqh
>>97739175Should have house ruled windows on all walls, kinda skewed in nid's favor that it wasn't.
>>97739180You know what kind of replies you'll get to that
>>97739184I'm quaking in my boots
>>97739101Man, L-shape shit aside, I don't understand how stuff like this can stay unpainted. I would offer to do it for free. Glue down sand. Overbrush/dry brush everything 3 shades of craft paint in whatever colour you want the terrain to be, then give it a brown oil wash. Wouldn't even take most of a weekend.
>>97739199anon, you’re being extremely elitist right now.
>>97739181I think this was a WTC terrain setup so it should be balanced. Trust me the skill gap was so large I don't think even having an extra 250 points would have made much of a difference.
>>97739209What does 9/11 have to do with this
>>97739199If I become a regular I might see if we can get the local group to all do a paint day to get as much terrain painted as possible. Seems like a good group of dudes so I'm sure I could get 5 or 6 to give up a Sunday to do it.

>>97738989then at best you have a snapshot of autism here, which is a snippet of a snippet of a snippet of the larger "community">>97738964if we had perfect data that could be used in any sphere you wouldn't have 4-5 flavors of concords back to back and even this single point presentation outlines major brushes of of things are ie. vanilla marines at the top, everything else behind but with very few specific outliers at the bottom end that most would agree are unpopular are just very niche appealing to not many - deathwatch and imperial agents. For assumption about GSC that approaches realistic we should compare with a point where they were broken so tourney waacfags were impacting the results and likely still do, same with necrons/tau/guard you could probably shave off 100-150 games weekly (and tau would just be closer to bottom before FtGG rework i recon). And it does still show that exaggerating going on how x or y is just a loss that should be cut from range is unfounded in reality but just wants to bait for (you)s dopamine hit

>>97739605Armageddon is the homeworld of the Steel Legion regiments. These used to have a full (metal) model range.Now DKoK are being used as the central player for the new Armageddon campaign because GW don't want to acknowledge old models or re-release a new SL range.
>>97739605I'm sure you will learn in next thread
>>97739605originally Steel legion were released as metal models and the first death model was just a steel legion model painted as a krieger. However steel legion never had their metal models updates, while eventually forgeworld released resin kriegers. The Kreigers being forgeworld when forgeworld was peak were better looking than the plastic cadians and catachans but really expensive so perfect for redditors who like to flash money. Eventually they were such a popular forgeworld product that gw eventually released plastic versions.So in full circle there are now plastic krieger models and GW is telling people to just paint krieger models as steel legion.
