>>97766508>TQim going to punch each and every one of you in the cock
Why is Alpharius legitimately decent now combat wise? I'm not gonna complain about being able to hold his own against other primarchs but it seems bizarre to have switched him from a buffing piece to a generic melee monster.Also re:TQ they're gonna release omegon for real this time, trust. Won't have any disappointment to cope with.
>>97766508>How will you cope with Wednesday's disappointment?I cant be dissapointed because I legitimately have no expectations. They just did a fairly big release, no shot they release anything so soon after.
>>97766752>Anon with no hope loses little bit of hope he didn't realize he still had
>>97766769I legitimately struggle to think of how they could do that. Maybe release some horrid powercreep wave? But that would require "new shit" which I doubt is happening. Its going to be a SA character or some books or something.
>TQWhen they don't announce MkVII I'll just jerkoff until it hurts.
>>97766508>How will you cope with Wednesday's disappointment?By posting edits of the new Ogryns.
>>97766821You could've skipped the subtlety and just said you want to jerk off
>>97766508>TQ There will be nothing to disappoint me, because I have all I want. All my armies are fully built and I'm taking my time to enjoy painting them. The consoomer for GW products is fully quenched, for now. Now for KDM on the other hand...;_;
>>97766752>>97766769
>>97766508>TQI don't really have anything I particularly want besides plastic Mk V, which I don't expect we'll be getting anytime soon, so I won't be disappointed.
>>97766508>TQI'll just cope and keep telling myself that new mark IV marines are just around the corner for sure.
Hello all!
>>97766700real talk: the pale spear should be an IF relic weapon in 40k, with a specific named character created to use it
>>97767439Idk if I'll like that game. I don't feel like enjoying Vidya lately. The story plays once, and idk about multiplayer. Looks grindy.
>>97767505Only if the Black Legion gets to bring Dorn's cock and balls as a relic too lol.I want Sarisanata to actually be the Soulspear. A weapon that turns out Dorn never wielder, guarded by a chapter that turned out not to be IF geneseed, sabotaged into taking the spear with them into the warp.Sounds like an AL op to me.
>>97766700>Why is Alpharius legitimately decent now combat wise?After the shrimplification, there was little for primarchs to do besides fighting, so fight he does. Were Alpharius' combat stats improved that much?
my uncle, who works at gw (and has subjected me to vigorous sexual assault for decades on end now but i like it) told me that hh is getting a plastic warhound at the adepticon revealand also that the news will be broken that legion journals are off the table with the presenters being instructed to point fingers at the camera and blame viewers for the low sales which provoked the decision
>>97767778Well I hope that's Kevin Rountree's uncle, because I would rape him too if it took a whole ass Journal to add a single Whirlwind to the roster
>finally get a campaign going with some friends>one of them got a girlfriend and drops off the face of the earth>another one got married and is on a two month honeymoonkillmekillme
>>97767814Foids, the eternal enemy of geeking out
>>97766814Its Ogryn, we're getting charonites.Right now the cover art model of the aux rulebook is resin, GW clearly plans to fix that. If the Aux get anything else I'll be very pleasantly surprised.
>>97767823Seeing that Malcador's guns makes me want Russ sponsons again ;__;
Vultrum Anon are you playing doubles and singles or just singles? I'm not sure we're gonna get the chance to play each other unless you want to try for some open play on Wednesday.
>>97767869I only signed up for singles, which I think is Friday. What about you Anon? I’m down for some open play but I’m still in transit, won’t be there till evening on Wednesday. Did you only sign up for doubles?
>>97767885I'm in for both, I guess I'll have to see if they'll let me swap allegiences between days.
>>97767898Shit I forgot that it’s all about allegiances. I assume we’re both bastard traitors
>>97767905Actually I normally play loyalist buy I'm teaming up with Mortis so I have to go traitor for the first day
are lucius warhounds kosher amidst the heresy?i am not very fluent on titan halalery
>>97768128Of course. All titan designs pre-date the Imperium by a large margin.
>>97766700Because AL always win
>>97768139[insert slander about being slaves of the eldar here]
I'm a contrarian. I hate everything that is popular because it's popular. What legion is overlooked by most?
>>97768225Probably Ravenguard. Used to be Salamanders, but now that 3.0 gave them good rules all the WAACfags have flocked to them.
Saw this earlier. Kinda works, don't you think?
>>97768387No, it looks like shit like all egg marines.
>>97768387>Kinda worksAs what?
>>97768139Nah Sharrowkyn almost killed him bro
>>97768387what legion
>Jaghatai Khan when having to pick a side at the start of the heresy: The Emperor is a tyrant!>Also Jaghatai Khan during his conquest of Chogoris: Join me, or die!What a hypocritical piece of shit.
>>97768471Same with Corax for serving the biggest enslaver of mankind as well.
>>97768475>enslaversaviour
>>97768475They could at least have recognised that the existential threats to humanity didn't allow the luxury of unrestrained freedom at that time. Especially Jaghatai, who had at least some knowledge of the daemons of Chaos and the threat they represented, due to the shamanistic lore on Chogoris.
>>97767684Ws7 now iirc, also his spear works on primarchs now (has decent stats even) whereas before it did fuck all to them. Hes not bad, but hes probably middle of the pack for them.The only primarch BAD at combat is corax.
>>97768243One of our local player recently switched from IF to Salies a few months after 3.0 dropped.It doesn't get more cliché than that.
>>97767355five same poses hahaHAHAHAHahaha
>>97768546Did they suddenly start talking about how they have always like Salamanders too?
>>97768243Its weird, ravenguard have very good rules.
>>97768541Gaslighting >>97768542I agree, the Khan completely lost his shit when he found out Big E lied about the warp and chaos.
>>97768544reminder that Corax beat up Lorgar during the dropsite lol
>>97768572Not with those rules he didnt lmao.
>>97768561as opposed to ten different power squats?
>>97768569Yes but their strong points aren't big blocks of terminators with thunder hammers, so the average HHtard cannot fathom what makes RG good.
>>97768570>Gaslightingno u
>>97768570Gaslighting isn't a real thing.
>>97768572A literal Daemon told Lorgar Corax would kill him at the dropsite massacre.Lorgar went into the fight with Corax KNOWING that he'd die but did it anyway, he even tells Corax as much.Then Curze shows up looking for a fight and Corax pussy's out rather than fight a real Primarch.
could this work as a Traitor Overseer Consul or a delegatus?
>>97768716>Traitor>Wearing Mk 7
>>97768661Lorgar and Curze was fresh into the fight, Corax had fought for 5 hours straight before that
>>97768580AND split torsos for easy mixing and posing.
>>97768720He's wearing better quality MkV with MkIV armour materials (no studs for extra plating) and cabling (under the armour).
>>97768716>MK7It's mk neutral chaos bullshittium armor. GW don't count rivets.
>>97768841>mk neutral chaos bullshittium armorWith a "general mk7 feel".
>>97768716That left arm is in the style of the new MkIV.Thoughts?
>>97768775I'd buy this explanation if he had Mk IV knee pads, or either external thigh cabling or bonding studs. a marine could in theory end up with a suit of Mk V that looks suspiciously like Mk VII like that, but it doesn't really read as Mk V when every single iconic design element of that pattern just "happens" to be missing.
>>97768976>if he had Mk IV knee padsWhich ones?
>>97768894>general mk7 feelI think that was more meant as a guideline to get away from their old monopose mk5 minis
>>97769055
>>97769058The pics kinda understate the differences by having very samey leg armor, obviously you get the 'studded' legs on the mk5 and mk6.The other part of mk7 and mk8 was 'no more studs'The mk2 through mk4 really came back thanks to the HH Legions, of course.
>>97769055>>97769058>>97769080big steppy marines
>>97769055>all Mk1 are thunder warriors>marines never wore Mk1>even all art identified by GW as Mk1 marines are ackhually thunder warriorsI hate this meme.
>>97766508Hey I remember making this imageGlad to see it againWhat are (you) anons working on?
>>97766508>TQI already know it's not sisters. They made that abundantly clear at the previous show.
>>97769125>What are (you) anons working on?Currently switching between painting a command rhino, veteran tacticals with disintegrators, a siege breaker, a delegatus, and indomitus terminators with combi-disintegrators.
How big are Saturnine Terminator helmets? Too big to be used with the new Cataphractii?
>>97769092What?The list specifically includes Mk1 as Space Marine armor.Thunder Warriors were one step in the development from techno barbarians to Space Marines, armor-wise.
Is my big lad any better this edition or should I stick with 2.0 / 3.0 for my knight needs
>>97769385You need a real lack of self respect to play MakabiusTotal cucks.
>>97769385Hes very expensive, but hes really hard to kill at long range because the current best AT gun most armies field is 24" effective range (lascannons just do not cut it any more for this) and the big guns hurt.
>>97769221The talk is that the nu-cata helmets are even smaller than the nu-Mk II helmets.
>>97769385If you can get into his long range his big gun is pretty horrific, but you won't be getting max value for long with the 42" minimum
>>97769223So Mk1 space marines just naturally were a head taller than marks 2-8?
>>97769525Yes.
>>97769515The 18"+ range is good enough. Two 7" S9 Ap3 D3 blasts is rather good. If you stand still it goes to a stupid damage 6 so it can even double as AT of a sort.
>>97766508>How will you cope with Wednesday's disappointment?manifesting plastic bikers.
>>97769591Ork Bikers?
>>97768440>Nah Sharrowkyn almost killed him broSharrowkyn never fights Alph and when it seems he'll be forced to, he very much does not want to as he knows there's no real chance of fighting. Alph only spares him as a favour to Magnus.
>>97769660>of fighting.*of winning
>>97766508>How will you cope with Wednesday's disappointment?Not going to be disappointed. we are getting plastic flamer section. We are getting plastic ogryns. We are getting a plastic stormhammer, and any faggot who says otherwise can khs.
>>97766508>How will you cope with Wednesday's disappointment?I mean its going to be Ogryns and some SA stuff, maybe a one model equal atention reveal for marines and mecanicum. Not really much either way it could be
>>97769697>>97769959SA armybox announcement with charonite ogryns, flamer sections and a carnodon (can be built as an aurox)tactica journal announcement that includes new rules for all of it (except flamer section)

>>97769999Everyone here put nuncio voxes on everything pre-emptively. Status spam never took off as a result.
>>97770198As someone who essentially HAS status spam? people here just run really "heavy" lists in terms of armor and transports, so its not really a factor. Also we play lots of weird killy missions (some guy essentially put every mission from every edition into a blender and we pick them at random, so line play is admittedly less relevant than it might be for others)
>>97770198I play mecanicum so i think i'm just getting fucked more than most people
>>97768153The best part of Legion was John Gramaticus. That's not a compliment.
>>97770219Personally don't like "Just kill shit" missions at all. They're boring and make for very one-dimensional armylists, and now with 3.0 army building just means everybody stops bringing anything that remotely resembles rank and file troops.
>>97770238baseliners were a mistake
>>97768716only if you clean the rest of the mold lines

>>97770223Doesn't Mechanicum have tough guys in hard armour and with lots of coolness and/or high Ld?I don't remember which Status effect need to wound you and which ones only need to hit you
>>97770296I don't get what you mean ;__;
>>97770372Its mostly routed, thallax are only LD 8. Plus I lose combat by one point a lot and break because of it (which isn't new tbf). Its more I can't clear them like a vox can
>>97768128As you might have inferred from the name, Lucius- and Mars-pattern Titans are simply Titans that originate on Lucius or Mars. Theoretically, any Forge World with its own Titan Legion would have its own patterns of Titan, and they would each look subtly and superficially different from another Forge World's engines.In fact, FW discontinued the Lucius-pattern Wolf and Jackal Warhounds simply to reduce the number of SKUs they had to manage. With the move to modular weapons that could be purchased individually rather then selling a whole Titan with a specific loadout, they just decided to move forward with the Mars-pattern designs than continue to support the older Lucius-pattern kits.In fiction, there's no difference between them and neither one is more authentic than the other for 30k. Lucius just does flat armor panels and Mars, curved.
>>97770106Close.>OgrynThey're not much different to the resin kit.>FlamersMore in line with the current plastics>Velataris command squadNot new, just adds the command sprue>CarnodonNo, simple wishlisting>VoraxNot yet, but will be revealed soon>Sicaran TurretsSee Vorax>Land Speeder JavelinNo plans as of yetThis reveal is all about solar. We are also going to see a tease of the SA super heavies (Baneblade etc)
>>97770444SA super-heavies wouldn't surprise me. Some photos of SA baneblades and such in the Ligma books are clearly 28mm scale.
>>97770379it was a fucking farce from the get-go to have mere mortals issuing the slightest of dictates to posthuman homunculi or expecting the latter to serve them for its own sake or whatever contrivance of reason might possibly be summonedhumanity as it was, was rendered obsolete by the astartes as soon as they took shapehigh lords, magistrates, administratum, excertus, the impoverished masses. all filth next to the lowliest of line marine. the all of them are not worth a drop of his blood. fallible. feeble. greedy. usurious. stupid. worthless as they are.horus did NOTHING wrong and the emperor was a fool not to bequeath his kingdom to his sons as evidenced by what took place
>>97770245I think "just kill shit" works as a nice spice to a more objective oriented pack. Variety in mission design helps enable more different armies and lets people bring more stuff.
>>97770471This is a great shitpost.

>>97770471LUPERCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL

>>97770516True. Right now any "venguard" or no line/no venguard based list is just a total no go. Want a tank list or jetbike army? get fucked or dedicate 1/3ed of your army to tacticals etc
Heroheresy ass cover
>>97770023>pedo artist
>>97770765I'd be upset if it wasn't for the fact that all Heresy covers have been shit from the very beginning. After 100 shit covers it's hard to care.
>>97770827what are you talking about, all the White Scar and Dark Angel books had great covers.

>>97770765Wasn't Horus' armour supposed to be sea-green in that artwork?
So the first 2 books of this Saga are Horus Rising and False Gods. What do you guys think are the other 10 books?
>>97770751I dont think ive seen anyone run 1000pts of tactical marines. The most ive seen (and the most I run) is three/four units.
>>97770972>Mortarion just brapping in the background
>>977709734 tacs, 2 rhinos, 2 land raiders, seem to be run in almost every army around here. There are a few that run 2 tacs 2 despoilers, or 4 despoilers for the one WE player we have.
>>97770973Three or four is too much, you only need one line 2 or equivalent unit on a backfield objective, and you should be using units actually able to defend themselves for forward objectives, relying only on a few units of tacticals for scoring is just asking for them to be wiped out or scared away by an opponent's turn 1 or 2 counterpush and then your SOL
>>97769003I said Mk IV, anon.
>>97771000Thats a bit more than what they run over here, but yea, its not "that" much (the land raiders are usually not for the scoring units). I WISH it was just waves of tactical marines, but people like their big dumb melee elites.
>>97771005>and you should be using units actually able to defend themselves for forward objectivesLike what, breachers? There are four(?) line units in the vanilla legion roster. Of those the tankiest are tactical vets.

Why can't the UK company do their UK streams at reasonable UK times?
>>97771143Because they're showing them off at an American event
>>97771149but why
>>97771030You don't need to use a line unit at all. A command squad on a 2 point objective that scores and lives for 3 turns still scores more than a tactical squad that scores for one turn and is then eviscerated.
>>97771159Because no one wants to host a major wargaming event in the UK.
>>97768661>corax pussy's outAfter he gets sucker punched by a primarch immediately after an extended slugfest with another primarch which immediately followed hours of being in the vanguard of the fighting on Isstvan V.
Alright, parts from my recaster are on the way for my Alpha Legion experimental C-beam falchion . I posted about this a long time ago, I'll be using an arm from an Asterius to make an equivalent to what the regular falchion is to the porphyrion.Which way should I mount it? Horizontally would fit the normal falchion design better but the wiring makes more sense vertically like in picrel (and this would also help the model stand out more from its brethren).
>>97771259That is a fucking cool idea anon, GW lawyers have been dispatched to your house.
>>97771167You are not using a 400pts command squad to sit on an objective for three turns. >>97771259Horizontal, it looks really weird vertical. Just use some guitar cable to add more wiring if youre worried about that.
>>97771293Thank you anon, I've been having a lot of fun converting weird monstrosities for my AL, fluffing them as an experimental weapons company doing R&D for the legion has led to all manner of silly kitbashing.I have a spare volcano cannon I was thinking of mounting under this Explorator model at some point in the future.>>97771297Once I have the bits in hand I'll post the various configurations on here, mini compare and pictures can only get one so far
>>97771297No, I'm using a 390 point unit to force you to come at me to dislodge them. That's what objectives are for. If your opponent doesn't want to interact with them, you win.
>>97771389You wasting a 400pts retinue unit exerting zero pressure just lets your opponent kill them (or other targets in your army) at leisure. Because you used what should have been an important game-changing unit on objective duty in the hope they eventually do better than what a tactical squad accomplished by being alive for one turn. >"oh but ill just drive some really tough terminator command squad onto the objective!, you cant just kill THOSE!"The 800/1000pts version does not perform better.
Real men only run 20 man Tactical squads and baisic centurions

Can someone post the ogryn charonite meme pls
>>97771463Stop playing on planet bowling ball Anon, my opponent can't just shoot them because that's what terrain and cover are for.>important game-changing unit on objective duty...Anon what exactly do you think changes the game? The game occurs on the fucking objectives you retard, what are you doing just going to go brawl on random empty space on the map?
>>97771692>my opponent can't just shoot them because that's what terrain and cover are for.>"terrain is there to make sure no shooting is done"How fascinating, let me guess, no weapons but melee weapons matter then? Since unless youre playing on planet bowling ball clearly you shouldnt be able to shoot from any point A to any point B.
>>97771585Is there any battle report KINO like that?
>>97771639This shitty ass 3d art has so many bizarre details it also becomes sovlfvl
>>97771891NTA, but I don't bother taking long range shooting for anything but anti tank, the new LOS rules basically turns it into nu40k where any ruin will block off LOS to half the table. I don't think all guns are off the table though, bike plasma or drop pod flamers seems scary for popping up behind some backline scoring and lighting them up
>>97769055Mark III is my fav one by far
>>97771259I see and you call it Alpha Legion despite the fact it is obviously Sons of Horus
>>97771981Like?
>>97770712
>>97772108Y- Uh.. you know, the... One thing I should... Excuse me for one second.
>>97770471This is how transhumans will inevitably end up thinking. The only difference between marines and the Men of Iron was astartes being made of meat instead of metal.The Emperor had blinkers on because he was transhuman himself and somehow couldn't see this coming.This was the only way it was ever gojng to end. RA was right.
>>97771692>my opponent can't just shoot themBut he could shoot the tacticals? Fascinating.
People being unable to agree upon what "The meta" looks like for 3.0 is probably the best argument for it being the most balanced version of HH yet. Nobody was arguing against dreadnoughts being at the very top of the food chain in 2.0 lol.
>>97772818That's probably also the best argument that no one plays it.
>>97772901If no one played it, nobody would be talking about the game or what their local meta looks like. But I understand that doesn't line up with your hateful world view.
>>97772954A world view with no hate is invalid.
>>97770069>>97770069if the LI models are any indication, they will look good
>>97772818Its definetly "more balanced" than previously - theres no dreadnought equivalent - but theres absolutely "meta" units and picks, theyre just less dominant/oppressive. Havoc launchers, seekers, double plasma dreads, melta kratos, several predator configurations. Theres a decent number of units that are "clearly very good" and a cut above a lot of their equivalent/alternative options, but thankfully none of them are in the "just spam this and win" bracket.
>>97770805Awesome artist
I love these little things. They need to be in a big value box or something though because they're super expensive for little egg robots.
>>97767439hello my fellow loyalist let's be loyalist together ;)
This is kinda cringe desu
Those clever cunts
Lmao
>>97773833Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyy
>>97774032Pretty much
I can see why they stopped doing live previews
Do you think if this preview continues to suck ass GW will stop doing them? I know hope is the first step on the road to disappointment, but still..
>>97774124>implying GW cares enough about how a few bad technical difficulties makes them lookThey just told every steel legion fan to go fuck themselves. I dont think they give even a slightest shit. They know paypiggies will buy everything they 'manage' to show anyway
>>97773437they need a lil womp-womp snub autocannon or something
how are they this disastrously shit at this? it keeps fucking happening
>>97772108>>97772220LMAO
>>97772035Is SM2 a good game? I think I'll play the campaign once and be done with it
So what's the difference between this spartan and the old one?
Oh good more cadslop bolters
FINALLY
>>97774657Fellblade sponsons
Why the FUCK do sa get the classic rapier design and sm get redesigned
>>97774680And that requires an entirely new box for it?
>>97774653Oh boy! Another weapon sprue!
what is the difference between the Spartan and the Prometheus Landraiders?
>>97774711NTA but I'm actually glad this came out,I bought one of my 3 Spartans but I was going to need to 3d print the sponsons for the other 2, now I don't need to.
>>97774800it's a prometheus spartan, I think the only change is the name of the kit. I imagine the spartan will just get rules to take the quad bolter
What the fuck is the battle of tallarn book even going to be about, all of these units have rules
>>97774852New spartan could have more transport capacity?It'd be pretty silly to give it it's own entry thoMaybe a land raider version with those sponsons too
>>97774674weren't they on the cover of a LI box like three years ago
>>97774904The Spartan sponsons also already have rules
>>97774836okay.
>>97774852>inb4 this is the book with tank commanders>but it's just malcador command section for solar aux
>>97774852>Updated rules for the new Rapiers and Charonite Ogryns (and for the Command Tank version of the Spartan Prometheus)
>>97775035Wait, a commander riding a full ass Malcador? That's neat.It'd be nice if SM got the stuff they had the previous couple of editions, though, if it's not too much of a bother.
>>97775107>Command Tank version of the Spartan PrometheusThe fuck is going to be the transport capacity on that, 15?
>>97774561>I think I'll play the campaign once and be done with itSM 2 campaign is 25% of the game, it served as a tutorial for the "operation mode" with 0 progression, 0 class, 0 update, 0 loadout, 0 cusomization, fucking nothing. The PVE Operation mode is where all the game contents and updates at.
How do you Titanicus niggas do it? Using a pinvise it took me 2 hours to drill a hole into an epic scale warhounds arm piece for a 3mmx1mm magnet then stick it in with greenstuff and superglue. The actual weapon was easier since they have a hole in the socket already so I just chamfered the hole and put greenstuff in the cavity underneath to glue the magnet in. its very slick and even lets me move the arm about while still needing at least a couple pounds of force to remove but jesus is it an ordeal.
>>97774653>wasted the adepticon reveal on a kitbash unitbravo James, where are my speeders?>>97776042I bought 3d printed warhound and reaver arms that come with the magnet holes already sunkbattlebling do them but others probably do too

>>97774852might be a good time to reveal those last Sicarans in plastic, tho I don't think they'll be in the book
>>97774905They are on the cover of the 3.0 Liber Auxilia
>>97776149>implying the people who frequent this thread have kids, balk at staying up late or aren't distracted drivers
>>97776218>aren't distracted driversI sure hope you aren't, considering we just had a thread filled with discussions about how cars are giant torpedoes that you can kill someone with
>>97774905the LI starter box has charonite ogryns in it but the cover art and rulebook cover art have a no Auxilia nerds allowed policy. It's a legions infantry and tank advance with 2 warhound titans looming in the back.
>>97776340also the Auxilia infantry box has an old one on it not this new mask design
wowaux rapiers and ogryns and a weapon sprue and not a legion journalmuch support thx james
>>97775954Is it a grind fest? I'm debating between that or Helldivers 2 but I'm kinda not too into it if I have to try and gaslight myself into them?None of my irl friends play either game.
>>97776300I'm going to tank shock while texting lmao>>97776149Ditch their kids? They have phones: kids ditch on their own already. It is connecting with them what's difficult, not the other way around
>>97774852They showed the back of the book for half a second, I'm trying to work out if that's just a paint scheme or if there's some special Dracosan
>>97776340What if Ogryns weren't literally retarded, medically speaking. Not asking for them to be smart, but what if they were like average normal people. Would that change the setting?
>>97776485Yes, because then there's even less reason for space marines to exist
I think 2 Lascannons is okay to have as a turret gun when you have another pair of Lascannons as sponsons (Predators), but not when you only have one as a hull gun (Russ).>Russes have never had Lascannon sponsons. Even if they were given sponsons tomorrow, you could still not take any las sponsonsHuh? ...why? Why can't we have the Russes from the Tallarn cover? They're right there!!
>>97776542>even lessYou say it like legions of immortal superhumans aren't useful.The Emperor didn't want marines for their physical prowess (Thunder Warriors were said to be more powerful), but rather because their nigh-immortality gave them a permanence and long view that mortals simply lacked.Also SM are a created subspecies dependent on mankind, whereas Ogryns are their own thing, which can only be tolerated at best.
>>97776340was thinking of this, which I could go either way on, they're too obscured
>>97776596>dependent on mankindit is mankind that owes everything to the astartes, not the other way around :^3
>>97776610I mean there cannot be new space marines without humans. They can't reproduce on their own, independent from mankind like Ogryns can.This forces marines to protect humans, otherwise they'd create separate kingdoms of their own. Even Eye of Terror CSM are obligated to keep mortals around to secure their future. They treat them like slaves or cattle, but they have to keep them alive.
>>97776042I just glued my guns on.Besides you can just jam a 5mm in there and it'll friction fit.
>>97776634livestock are doomed to die without their handlers and humanity was already on its last legs when the legions started to right the shipthere is no imperium without astartes blood and sacrifice, no mankind to speak of. the dynamic may go both ways but all is owed to the space marines in being upheld whatsoever.baseliners by every measurement in the face of posthumanity have no right to determine their own destinies or remain remotely sovereign. they continued to exist at all due to the legionaries.
>>97776610>>97776685>parasite attempts to convince host that they can't take the medicine, look at how much food you're eating, you'd never eat this much without me
>>97776736enough, i will hear no more of this baseliner nonsense
>>97776685Perhaps this is a language issue, so here I reiterate: new Ogryns can be born without human intervention, new marines can't.>Yeah but marines are importanNobody's saying they aren't. You are arguing a point nobody made. This comment reply chain isn't even about marines, it's about Ogryn, and how they cannot be humanity's champions because they pretty much aren't the same species anymore.
>SA releases mogging marines>AgainStarting to get the impression the HH team actually hates marines.
>>97776892All they have to do is convert the fw resin shit to plastic at this point.
>>97776900And they refuse to do that for marines for some reason. The plastic redesigned marine infantry are an absolute joke, just pure fucking trash.
>>97776654given the massive choice of highly situational weaponry I'd prefer to be able to swap them out. I was planning to channel 2nd edition epic and use arm mounted banners and pendants/streamers on the upper hull glacis rather than just a groin tabard.>1/2 hull mounted streamers announcing the name of the titan for example Leaena Velox and maybe these quirky kill pendants >A generic legion banner mounted to various arm weaponry so that I can use them on any titan with the only caveat that I would have to always mount that weapon on the side the banner is meant for.
Who do I have to speak to to tell them I have never given a single fucking shit about heavy tanks. This shit is fucking boring man. Sure they’re better than guards tanks but that’s not a fucking high bar to clear. No ogryn was cool I guess but I don’t think mortars were needed.
>>97776912sorry sweetie but the new mk.vi/mk.iii/mk.ii kits are some of the best plastic crack that gw has ever made, hands downbulk-ass heavy infantry in five highly animated and mutable sculpts. shit has frankly never been better. absolutely astonishing to me that we haven't seen the mk.iv rendition as of yet.universal power squatting was utter squalor compared to what's presently being peddled. there's no contest about it.
>>97776892I get the impression that it feels more fresh to the designers in doing non-marine kits and they also have to convince people to buy unique factions. Whereas they can just kind of wing it for Space Marines, suspecting their fans will generally buy it up anyway (are they wrong?). But marines have so many options as well and whatever it is, the modelers are not very insistent on making all of those readily available - especially wargear. Meanwhile Solar Auxilia and Mechanicum only really stand to gain.Wonder if they regret being stuck with having to deal with building their marine infantry ecosystem around their own initial monopose wave, but seeing Citadel could have easily separated the arms from the weapons for nu-Cataphractii and used all the extra space from the extraneous pauldrons and faulds (12 in a box of 6) for more weapons like the obligatory Thunder Hammer spam and yet didn't, who the fuck knows.
>>97777020You're in the wrong thread, 40kg is down the block
>>97777020Don't you like new content? Aren't you excited for the new content? Won't you consume the new product?
>>97776892yeah solar aux have the classic split leg torso too, nu-desgins for marines are so shit.
>>97777020I just want take this opportunity to thank HH players. You have with a meek and contrite heart accepted 700 point lead elephant superheavies so I can use them to counter enemy titan detachments and also have unique variants that can cook an entire formation with titan sized flamers. Bless you anons.
>>97777127GIB FULL SCALE ASCALON RIGHT NOW YOU THIEF
>>97777147If they make one it should come with the normal flame template the ligma version uses scaled up with the tank so that it is 25" long
GW throwing a different sprue in the spartan kit and using it as a new model reveal is absolutely hilarious.
I like the rapiers, I like the ogryns since they didn't botch their heads. Not gonna buy them tho fuck GW.

>>97777877true
>>97777777I might pick them up second hand eventually.
>>97774852Didn't Tallarn have some absurd amount of carnodons in storage? Kind of a shame they didn't make them instead of a spartan with 5 dimensional magazines.
>>97778231GW didn't "make" the "new" spartan. It's merely the existing spartan kit with the same sponson weapons sprue the fellblade has.
>>97778239I know, it's not like they didn't do that for a lot of resin vehicles in 2.0. What I meant to say is that for a vehicle that's meant to be extremely common in great crusade garrisons and armouries and iirc that's stated to be in the hundreds of thousands on Tallarn alone they sure as shit went put of their way to not put it in LI's tallarn or the journal.
>>97778289Alright. I imagine it's only a matter of time until SA get plastic charnodons and aurox. It's probably a matter of GW already running over capacity. Heck, they only had concept art to show for Steel Legion alongside the new Armageddon supplement for 40k, not even actual models. It's a disgrace.
>>97778407Yeah but I've come to expect that for 40k with their every regiment is a cadian variant and at least they got the not!centauro/puma which was something I've always wanted. I can't wait for that thing to get militia rules.

>>97778530and here i naively thought my elysian days were behind me
>>97778530this doesn't even look like Warhammer
>>97778530I wonder if they will ever give background fluff to all these new guard vehicles or if it will just be like the Rogal Dorn (i know it will be the latter but one can always hope)
Does anyone have both an Asterius and a warhound titan for size measuring purposes? I'm toying with the idea of making a fortress breaker with a Hades breaching drill as a melee arm, a dominus bombard on the back, and a titan melta or flamer on the other arm from the chassis of an Asterius.Calling him Grond

>>97779192The SA ogryns are modified in a way that's prohibited in the rest of the imperial forces for being too dishumane.
>>97779192>>97779203Ogryns (de)evolved in harsh high gravity worlds full of bad critters, so their society became a culture of service. Normally their weak and wounded were left behind, as they could afford no stragglers.Ogryns Veterans from Army service, invariably wounded after years of linebreaking duty, are given the opportunity to continue serving by means of cybernetic rebuilding, which makes them eligible for SA induction, as their average missions are akin to suicide missions compared to usual Army operations.They are also equipped with combat stims to "use when necessary" (almost always). Repeated use is detrimental to humans, but Ogryn physiology can tolerate it well enough for prolonged exposure.These procedures, though radical, allow maimed Ogryns to retire and live comfortably in their core homeworlds, where they'd be ostracized without high-grade prosthetics.When they survive service, that is.It doesn't have to be so grim dark all the time ;__;>>97779393It's fine bro they ain't human, and neither do they suffer like one. They are tonka tough, inside and out.

>>97779676About as wrong as in the other 70% of legions that obeyed Nikea Could make them look like a line officer using their powers in a fit of desperation, could be some frontier or garrison company that never got the memo, or just some loyalists who don't give a fuck

Since I'm seeing some talk about 40k tallarn and 40k regiments, a little PSA:1) 40k guard is the faction for historicals2) 40k factions & subfactions work on archetypesIn plain english: beside a few rare exceptions (praetorians) regiments take from multiple historical inspirations.Ex. With Tallarn: we got arab, bedouin, british SAS, among others.TL;DR: Archetypes. Fucking archetypes.
>>97780123>Irdk why Rough Riders MUST look AtillianRough riders used to be a unit type (guard cavalry) but cavalry in space only appeals to the most distinguished individuals.Attilans are special in that they are ONLY rough riders. Over time the only rough riders people even remember are the attilans and the krieg death riders.
>Oddly enjoy painting disintegrator rifles>Start eying the 30 disintegrator rilfes on sprue collected from people who were otherwise throwing them awayShould I go for 40 veteran tacticals with disintegrators....

>>97779965To be fair before cadians became knock-off starship troopers they looked vaguely like nam-era 'muricans in speeesh. I guess they all tie in with how the Perry brothers wanted to do historicals rather than sci-fi so they did a bit of both. There is some irony in FW in their golden era doing a bit of the same by doing their osprey-esque books for 40k and later on 30k along with more realistic(when compared to their GW counterparts) looking minis and tanks.
>>97780480Bikes are still cavalry
>>97779547>>97779622Link to those tiles?>water worldThis is beautiful. Everything about this is beautiful.
>>97780534Dunno, haven't done the calculations to see what's the most point efficient. But the idea of fielding a DA army with only volkite and disintegrator wielding infantry seems cool.
>>97780394I think that cavalry in any setting where it is well past its prime is pretty cool in its own right. I should expand the small epic scale brigade I did for some non-SA army loyalists once I finish some other projects.
>>97780394>Attilans are special in that they are ONLY rough riders.That's a good explanation>>97780594I don't like horses. But i guess being tall and using grass as fuel are proper advantages over bikes, even if they are made of glass and can't ever be repaired

>>97781889Trust NL to find a way to bully daemons as well
Anyone else think it's dumb that Shattered Legions can't take the unique consuls/command options of the legions you selected? At the very least there shouldn't be the option to use Exemplars of the Legions on the Command slot it was selected with so Space Wolves Rune-Priests don't magically become Librarians.Though honestly imo, Shattered Legions should be able to take any Legion specific selections freely provided they're either Command slots or Troops. Former are limited anyway and latter are usually something the Legion in question practically replaced their standard troops with like Grey Slayers or Terror Squads. Exemplars of the Legions' role should be so you can run the other more specialist Legion units
>>97781750...why?

Lots of equipment and niche upgrades from old editions to draw inspiration from.
>>97781928Shattered legions shouldn't even have bespoke rules anymore, it's trivial to play them as they were always meant to be with the current detachment and allies system. Unironically the one situation where squatting is justified.
>>97778530>>97778824I'm glad GW has discovered their roots.>>97774653And then there's this faggot. Unless it comes with command elements, but I highly doubt that. LR Prometheus was suppose to be a command variant of LR Tartarus. Still waiting on that LR Proteus Ultra, James. You already got everything needed in the normal Proteus kit.
>>97778824Way too small for a utility hauler, maybe a mining rig?
>>97781989Honestly their rules should just be a rework of the old 1.0 rules, they're selected a single army (no allies, can share transports) but suffer some penalty if their High Command dies (maybe they all get Heedless?)And/or you have to take at least one Command option for each legion included and if all the command options of a legion die then said legion specifically suffers the penalties.Main idea is to keep the fact they're not two separate legion formations and instead a single integrated group while adding a penalty so this isn't just better than the allies system as it is.>>97781958Aside from the Daemon Weapon one I like them. And the only reason I don't like the Daemon Weapon one is because with prime slots being so limited I really don't like the idea of 'moving' wargear options to them.What Stratagems did to wargear selection in regular 40k was a travesty and left a sour taste in my mouth.
>>97780306>t. lacks a functioning dick

>>97782467Tbf Eldar canonically have 40K cup tits if we go by that one /aco/ calculation of Amallyn's model.They probably need something reinforced like a breastplate to hold them up anyway
>>97782482Amallyn seems much more curvy compared to other eldar models though.
>>97782534Maybe it's because most Eldar wear a bra but she's just using a multi-functional breastplate
>>97782482Wouldn't that just be because they're taller than humans?
>>97777147>ASCALONJust get a recast warhound flamer and mod one ya dingus. Looking at the epic version, it would be one of the easier mods to do.
>>97779760YO, where you get the big volkie? I want...
>>97781127Made some progress. The grey/green is a little greener in reality, but my camera has some real issues with the green spectrum.
>>97783077Chieftain Squad?Also is the power lance for the right guy on fire somehow?
>>97783089That's right. And no, I accidentally just splodged some red on him when I was doing his topknot.
>>97783137Honestly it looks good, but that might just be the angle making it look like there's smoke coming off it.
SMs should have just genocided the baseliners when the Crusade was over.
>>97783461t.Abaddon.
>>97778824>MilitiaLooks like a nice plastic Aurox alternative.
>>97783528>Hop in loser, we got a galaxy to burn
>>97783528There's no way that holds more than 6 troops, like I know vehicles aren't scaled the way as infantry but this is ridiculous
>>97783633You'd be surprised how many dudes you can stuff into an army truck. If it's rated for "max X persons" then that means it's meant to hold X persons and no less. You try explaining to the lieutenant the older model of truck is much smaller than the current model. But they're both rated for the same number of dudes, so by God they'll fit the same number of dudes.
>>97783633It holds at least 10, the warhammer community article said it can fit a full Infantry Squad
>>97783528I like the wanky window>>97783633it's based on various WW2 era halftracks like the M5, which... holds 10 +3 crewthere is something kind of fun about the guard going from shit-but-serviceable tanks and amphibious, over-engineered APCs to independent-track metal boxes to these big sand-sucking engines with half-tracks (which were only ever used as a cost-saving measure irl) and tanks with gunner platforms on the exterior while there's an endless parade of gilded generals and commissarsreally does paint a picture of an increasingly desperate imperium
>>97783875>tanks with gunner platforms on the exteriorTbf that was a thing IRL and the platform wasn't for the crew. Everyone assumed the best way for infantry to work with tanks would be to advance behind them (using them as cover) like in WW1 and the simplest way for the guy leading the infantry to communicate with the tank crew would be sit on the back behind the turret. So they gave him an MG to play with while he did that.Come WW2, everyone but the Soviets decided the best way for infantry to work with tanks was actually to have their own armoured halftracks and even the Soviets decided the best way to communicate with the tank from behind it was just to put a handset on the back of the hull.
>>97783875Half-tracks were for giving trucks cross-country mobility while keeping the better handling due to the use of the wheels that could turn. Once tank tracks could make turns at speed, half-tracks became obsolete as their advantages over fully tracked vehicles were negated.>really does paint a picture of an increasingly desperate imperiumOr just the wide variety of equipment available to the Imperium.
>>97783940>Tbf that was a thing IRL and the platform wasn't for the crew.Do showcase IRL tanks with dedicated platforms for infantry to stand on and fire a pintle MG. The reason tanks had a pintle MG at the back was for anti-air and to keep it out of the way. It makes no difference if you turn the turret towards or away an attacking plane for the crewman to fire the pintle MG. Like how this M6 has the machine gun on the nose of the car. It's not for someone to kneel on the hood and fire forwards while the truck was moving.
>>97784017It wasn't actually just that, it was also because if you knew how to drive a car driving a half track didn't need training, while driving a tank did due to the steering.>>97784065Where at all did I say they had a dedicated platform to stand on? The idea was the officer/squad leader just sat on the back of the tank same as the entire squad did if you were in tank desant like the Russians used (rather than make dedicated transport half-tracks).
>>97784086>tanks with gunner platforms on the exterior>Tbf that was a thing IRL and the platform wasn't for the crew.So what platform were you referring to then?>The idea was the officer/squad leader just sat on the back of the tankExamples of this being a dedicated thing and them being given an MG to play with.>same as the entire squad did if you were in tank desant like the Russians usedNot only Russians.
Second game was much more fun
>>97784117I was referring to the MG, sorry, I got the wires crossed in my brain>Examples of this being a dedicated thing and them being given an MG to play with.A lot of the early war tanks. I will admit, I'm not 100% sure the yank tanks with the Brownings (which are probably what GW based the Rogal Dorn's gun on) were doing the same trend at first and transitioned over to it being a purely AA thing (which as you said was the main role of it in practice) or whether this was just something more unique to European designs. But it wouldn't surprise me.>Not only Russians.Yeah but they're the ones everyone imagines as riding tanks, pop culture is a hell of a drug. Though I'd actually heard it wasn't a good idea to ride on the Abrams like that because the gas turbines made the engine cover dangerously hot
>>>97778530>My beloved Salamander lays forgotten and replaced.tracked recce is SOVL, this is boring they couldn't even make it look like a cool cold war armoured car but a generic wheeled eurorectangle.Warwick Kinraide needs to set about the with a vulcan gunship turbine piece until they design a air/orbital mobile tracked recce space CVRT.
>>97784142>They do move in herds
>>97784152What do you call a crowd of ants?
>>97784166An army
>>97782963Forge world east.
>>97784150>tracked recce is SOVLI prefer tracked recce with some mass behind it.>couldn't even make it look like a cool cold war armoured car but a generic wheeled eurorectangleCan you name some cool cold war armoured cars that aren't wheeled eurorectangles like the Saladin?
>>97783875>while there's an endless parade of gilded generals and commissarsThe new commissar basically rides on pic related with some decorations.
First time I played against knights, even after thrashing the banners they're still pretty scary
>>97784316Knight household, that isIt's always funny to see what an exploding warlord does to a table
>>97784319Stripes killed a warhound in a single charge only to be killed in return.
>>97784324Rare to see a roll as absurd that this.
>>97784241I was more referring to the boxer/BTR/10 million other knockoff 6 to 8 wheel APCs that are long and rectangular when I said eurorectangles rather than the classic 4 wheel square/rhomboid/citroen 2cv shaped Saladin, Ferret and Panhard AML respectively armoured cars.
>>97784241The entire AML family and the elands/any south african armoured car
>>97778817This is bait. You aren’t GROND.
>>97784436Those look like pretty typical armoured cars that even GW has showcased.
>>97784465The parts are ordered, I'm going to use a Hades drill as a melee weapon.GROND GROND GROND And a scaled down reaver melta
>>97784666You don’t even deserve to be a pretender to the name. You are unoriginal.
>>97784227From a recaster? Pls anon fren, my Warhounds have a vicious need for newer weapons....
>>97784750Is it really a recast if it's a whole new weapon GW hasn't made a cast for?
>>97784783You know what I mean, but fair enough. "new cast", "3d print" whatever, I just want to know where to buy one. Ive seen others make ursa claws for them too that I would pay quite handsomely for if someone would just list the damned things.

>>97784750>>97784790Nice try James
>>97784794Ive bought from 4 separate recasters just this month, fuck GW.
>>97784715There's only so many famous battering ram names out there. What name would you give to a wall breaker Acastus knight?
>>97784801Warwolf
>>97784801The acastus knights have weird bullshit names so just smack your keyboard like you're paying it to shake and that's it.
>>97784750>>97784790First rule of recaster, you never talk about where it came from.
>>97784909But then how can I give them potentially hundreds of dollars per order?
>>97784938Lurk harder James. The recasters don’t need your money that bad
Vultrum Anon I should be able to play as loyalist tomorrow, so with some finesse we can have a match, but we gotta meet before we deploy on the map
>>97778530I don’t like it. But I generally don’t like guard anyways.
>>97785259Will do Anon, me and my buddy will be there before start so we can sort it out
>>97780417How are you painting them? Post pics, I've been staring at a squad of mine that have been sitting in my backlog for months now, dreading getting started on all those fiddly little details.
>>97778530oh neat, it's a vulpine FV721not sure the laspistol is gonna help but hey
>>97780534>What else would those guys shoot, honestly?Banestrike Bolters if you play the gigachad legion.Sure, they're only 45% as effective Disintegrators against other Veterans, but that jumps to being 90% as effective against basic MEQs and between 100% and 150% MORE effective against Terminators. All without having the chance to kill your own guys.
>>97781889how do you run these in 3.0?
>>97781103I vote with my dollar by not buying GW, thank you 3rd party thank you 3d print design makers.
>>97785560if you play traitor tho you want your guys killed because you were AL all along
I think I will buy this beauty. I see there was.rules for Tribune in 1.0, but can't find for 2.0. Are there some or I will need to use him as a normal Praetor?
>>97785574Who plays 3.0 ?
>>97785574I don't ;-;
>>97785768Idk man it sucks
>>97780167You're both wrong, Tallarn are LRDP/Desert Rats/Africa Campaign SAS with a little Arab flair.
>>97782439They forget nothing, it's a deliberate slight. There's a faction within the main studio management who cannot stop seething at the fact that all the grogs started seeing Forgeworld as "proper 40K" due to them pumping out triumph after triumph in the Imperial Armour series while GW proper were sharting out baby carriers & Centurions as minis and Wardian tripe for fluff, and they've been working ceaselessly since Rowntree took over to dismantle FW and its legacy.
>>97785441Still need to apply a wash and do highlights, but it mostly looks like what the end result is suppose to be. Just painted the entire thing steel metallic, then painted the frame and muzzle bronze metallic, and re-did the pipes where some bronze got on them. Was surprisingly quick.Wanted the disintegrator weapons to look different from the other regular weapons. Like the idea that they are techno-artifacts from the DAOT which the techmarines don't dare make any changes to, out of fear that they stop working properly.
>>97785687Those 1.0 rules were exactly the same as a praetor with paragon blade, terminator armour, and digital lasers, just with all options locked. The tribune rules were entirely pointless.
>>97785806based
>>97768387How does the marine fit in there? Shouldn't all terminator suits be bulkier but still be near the same height as the standard power armor marks?
>>97780417Jump command squad with the rifles. You dont care about gets hot because youre Ap3 2+ save. Jump around zapping people.
