I changed my mind, I prefer the MkX helm.
>>97793977The issue is that on the model the grill is more U shaped, while in the picture next to it, the grill is clearly more arch shaped and not just a straight walled U.
>>97793984because they're two different helmets you retard
>>97793984Just how MkVII is.
>>97793986I know, and the one on the right looks better and less retarded.
>>97793995you didn't know, you're a braindead tourist
KINDKOLOSSALKUSTODESKNOCKERS
So I have finally gotten around to accepting that GW killed my beloved Shadow Specters, but I love the models so I wanna use them again. Think I would get complains if i used them as say, Wrap spiders or something? Been using Irillyth as a jump Autarch for a while anyway.
It's OK to admit that heroic scale never looked good
>>97793997I did know.
>>97794004
>>97793957Hey everyone, it's once again time for the collage anchor posts. This month's theme was "big stick" and was left up to your own interpretation. Could be a melee unit, a guy with a literal big stick or whatever you think fits the theme.I'll try to make an anchor every thread until the deadline. As usual the deadline is the last day of the month. Best way to not be missed is to submit the model in reply to my posts but I'll look through the archive too.Here is the vote for next month's theme:https://strawpoll.com/X3nkPLNJzgELooking forward to seeing what you've come up with.So after going over the feedback I think we'll go with the top two themes this time, if the current leader wins. Hope that works for everyone.
>>97793957>tq not warhammer related but one of the guys who used to work there was stealing pokemon cards out of buylists and selling them himselfthe lgs took him to court and i haven't heard any updates since
>>97794017Posting this guy again, better safe than sorry.
>>97794003if it's just a casual game, just use the legends rules
>>97794017here’s my submission
>>97794027Please dont turn into a glownigger, looks good as is
>>97794029It's the completed version of the submission, and as collage anon said the best way to not be missed is to reply to the anchor.>>97794035Based stick wielder.I feel like the funniness factor of orks is getting reeled back with their 11e models. They do look nice but it feels like a mistake.>>97794038Don't worry, I have a sense of restraint.
>>97794030Fairly casual, At least from my part. But we try to use up to date rules for pick up games. I mean pick related, I am not playing to win. But frankly I should just ask if they minded legends.
>>97794029i haven't seen it before it looks awesome
>>97793957>pictured: Ciaphas Cain and Amberley Vail
Post your WIPs, I picked up the store anniversary autarch today
>>97794044legends rules and points aren't updated, but they're intentionally bad because of that. I doubt there's some broken rules combo with legends units, especially in a casual game.
>>97794017>Space wolves getting absolutely destroyed >using the collage to give village idiot even more attentionsad, I hoped you of all people would know better than do shit like this
>>97794078Currently gluing my dynasty's phaeron together. Hopefully I can prime him tomorrow.
>>97794097Don't call me the village idiot you scumbag, just call him out for his blatant persecution and harassment.
>>97794102Shut up, village idiot. Normal people are talking.
If you could use the models from one army with the rules from another, what army would you want to see transposed like this?
>>97794127admech in my marines
>>97793957>TQBeen farting around LGSs for 30+ years so way too many stories. Alot of drama turns into one group opening yet another game store in town to have their own tree fort until it also goes out of buissiness. Currently there are 6 operating stores + Warhammer store that I know of and 18 once stores that closed down to my memory. Top drama would be there's four gamers I know of that went to prison for kid diddling and CP.
>>97794138>Top drama would be there's four gamers I know of that went to prison for kid diddling and CP.Jeez. What were their armies?
>>97793957>What's the biggest drama and/or incident of your LGS?If I had a nickel for every time a LGS in my zone turned out to be a front for recycling drug money...
>>97794132To be fair, I don't think anyone likes the AdMech rules including the AdMech players.
Why does everyone want to have sex with Erebus?
>>97794138Disturbing
>>97794127Space marines getting imperial agents' rule support. Let the seethe boil.
>>97793999i wish the female custodes models had big boobs and sexy abs
>>97794017Buri has his stick out for harambe
>>97794127Eldar wraiths with custodes rules
post armies and rate mine
>>97794127Knights with oath of moment targets
>>97794171Troonstodes are auto 1/10.
>>97794171
>>97794181yes i do
>>97794017Safety post with a fresher photo. Thanks as always.
>>97794146The one guy that played 40k was space marines. His desk top broke, took it to Best Buy to get fixed and apparently didn't put any effort into hiding the CP folder. Two were a husband and wife that molested their daughter and apparently invited others to join. They gave away all their game stuff as they got 20+ terms. From someone else I ended up with the husband's AD&D 2nd players handbook signed to him buy Gygax. Last was the room mate of one of the LGS counter monkeys. They shared a computer and he came across the CP folder and turned him in.
>>97794165Same
Apart from the Vgh... GroBgermanivm space marines, the show had a couple of titans The bases were top notch
>>97794196>Two were a husband and wifeThat's just fucking bleak.
>>97794210
>>97794171Would look cool if you brushed some matte black on these bases
>>97794229it's still WIP
Imperial Fists primaris intercessors
>>97794237I think we're gonna have to kill this guy, anons.
>>97794188Also I’ve started the next month’s guy already. Crucible lets you make an apothecary that can actually be hardcore which is nice. Loadout and rules:Champion of the chapter base so he gives rerolls to wound once per turn in the shoot or fight phase.Conversion field upgrade to get a 4++ invuln for 10 points so he costs 80 total.Narthecium so he brings back a model a turn.He can take one one rifle sized weapon, 2 pistols, and up to 2 melee weapons.Combiweapon as a rifle, inferno pistol and absolver bolt pistol, and a MC chain sword which is Sustained 1, 7 attacks, ap-1 d2, and a servo arm for an extra attack at ap2 damage 3. Just trying to find a servo arm to add to his backpack and I’ll have it all built. Gonna go through my LGS’ bits box tomorrow.
>>97794240damn...
>>97794241>80 points for all that.Lol good riddance Crucible.
I want Chaos Bikers. Now.
>>97794241That man is carrying 3 cum vials around his neck.
>>97794252You know something like it is going to make it into 11e right? Even if it's crusade only. All the Maelstrom book rules basically read like a play test version of 11e.
>>97794262Ok, buy some outriders and then put shit load of spikes, skulls, chains and human skin on them.Shouldn't be too hard of a conversion.
>>97794266>3 cum vialshe's israeli?
>>97793977When do we get to see the rest of the box?
ALERTdoes anyone have a new cadian shock trooper as well as a palanite enforcer that they would be able to take a pic of?I cant find this specific side by side anywhere online. I have some enforcers in my little army and I want to get some cadians to kitbash. However I have extreme size autism and im afraid the cadians will be too smol next to them. I plan on using 3rd party heads if that may help at all. Much appreciated. Pic unrelated
>>97794271End of April of it matches the timing for the release of 10th edition
>>97794252there are sadly like 5 crucible loadouts so OP it can never hit normal 40k without a bunch more restrictionsCommander RailgunsMy Character Is Three Terminators With A Cruicible Rule EachDrukhari Turbo Infantry Rapist ManTyranid Psychic OverlordRedemptorless Redemptor
>>97794286>Drukhari Turbo Infantry Rapist ManThis honestly sounds like an actual job in Comorragh
>>97794286I don't know what they were thinking with the Deathguard one. That one is so obscene for the price no matter how you build it.The Drukhari one isn't actually as crazy as it seems considering they already have an Anti-infantry 3+ with Dev Wounds character and people don't even use it in the army because it's bad.
Finally got around to giving my phaeron an orb to ponder. Next matter is figuring out what he'll stand on.Should I also give him this weird gauss magnum I smashed together?
>>97794252you know crucible is staying right /v/ermin?
Why did the Space Wolves change their gray color to a bluish gray?
>>97794313Because blueish grey is an awesome color.
>>97794313Blueish gray looks gayer and they wanted to represent that.
>>97794313To distinguish them more from Grey Knights when they became a thing
>>97794316Don't get me wrong, it's a great color, but I meant, what's the lore explanation for it?
>>97794304It's a really big differenceThe Anti-Infantry Dev Wounds Archon has 7 attacks, and is doing what, 4 mortals?The Crucible one does d3 damage each hit, and you can give him overwatch immunity or sustained while retaining rerolls to hit. Since the army can quite easily stack sustained or crits 5 in certain detachments you just end up with a smallish unit that costs 150 points + transport that will kill basically every single elite infantry unit in the game without the unit being able to roll a single save then jump into a venom
>>97794279How do I achieve this grottyness on my units
>>97794305Attach the gun to the forearm
>>97794313That's the other way around. They made 30k SW grey to make them look more brutal and barbaric to fit in the setting.
>>97794335Like a wrist-mounted gun? I like that idea, thanks.
>noooo!! muh gothic styling!!!!i dont care, give me the wwii shit
>>97794333 I had a pot of typhus corrosion that got mostly dried out. What was left was this sludge and I found it perfect for using as a base layer for rust. Now that its gone im not sure how ill replicate it. Normal typhus corrosion is very liquidy. Might be able to do something similar with a texture paint like stirland mud or something.
>>97794342For me it's the Rodela
>>97794341That's usually where necron lords wear their sidearms, like tachion arrows
>>97794342less is sometimes more.
>>97794171gold/10
>>97794400more is sometimes more
How many of you 3D print as a side-hobby out of curiosity? And are there any armies you'd say have better third party OC than official GW stuff on average (that you've personally made)?
>>97793977Kiss my ass, the new helmet was like 80% of my beef with the Primaris design
>>97794410Almost all the third party models look subtly off from the GW design standards, and that probably is intentional to keep them from getting Cease and Desisted. Guard and Space Marines have the widest variety of options by far, as you might imagine. You can probably find some decent options for every faction though if you look. I've seen some really good Eldar ones posted here over the years before they got their refesh. It depends how strongly you feel about the GW sculpts for each individual model and whether you hate the current official one or not.
>>97794407Sometimes sometimes is sometimes
>>97794405Cussed toads
>>97794171the lads
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0F8K4SNFCIs it even worth the risk? I have no idea what to buy besides "citadel bad".
>>97794405cool telemon and gorgeous paint scheeme. also are sagittarum custodes any good, and should i get the conversion sprue in case gw releases it in plastic?
where are the box leaks
>>97794520
>>97794520the box content has been leaked for a while
>>97794511nta but sagis are mediocre ruleswise and have been squatted in HH so they probably won't hang around for 11ththat said they look cool as fuck
>>97794511NTA but sagittarum have just been removed from HH. I don't look at their survival in 40k with optimism.
>>97794511Thank you!>also are sagittarum custodes any good?I'll find out in two weeks when I'll have a 2k pts game against guards. My bet is a fat, ugly "nope".But boltstodes are so goddamn good looking, I cannot not use them.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>97794521>Blood angels box>Still painted as ultramarines
>>97794532Anon look closely at those models
>>97794528Tell me how it went because i played 2 2k pts games against chaos and fucking forgefiend fucked me over
>>97794520valrak leaked this a few months back but valrak is retarded and people figured out what is actually going to be in thereMelee Captain and Jump Chaplain have both been shownThe 'Speeder' was initially said to be a scout speeder by Valrak and we can see it's more of a classic designThe Mk7 Intercessors have been shownThe VanVets were in the cinematicPeople figured out that the 'eradicators with bolters' is most likely the Heavy Frag Cannons that the Deathwatch guys have.So we now know that the 11th ed Marine box has - Intercessors with Mk7 HelmetsGravis with Frag CannonsScout SpeederVanVetsJump ChaplainMelee Bladeguard CaptainLibrarianAncient (Might be gravis ancient or libby)
>>97794521AI slop, look at the lettering on those sheets to the right
I have cum for u
>>97794526>>97794525Jesus Christ, GW cant recognise something cool if it hit them in the face.My first game with my Stodes will be my last at this point.Boltstodes were even in the Emperor vs Horus art.
>>97794540Jump pack marines feel wrong in every chapter but raptors and raven guard.
>>97794541did you miss the part where every model is calgar
>>97794569What's wrong with it
>>97794569I'm not a marinefag I assumed those were primaris glup shittors
>>97793999>kindArent all the custodes kind of assholes?
>>97794566Why? Are you retarded?
>>97794566>Raptors>not Blood Angels
>>97794566Hate to tell you this but jump pack isn't that popular to Raptors.
>>97794566Did you really confuse Raptors as the CSM unit and Raptors as the chapter?
>>97794342>give me the wwii shitbut the current design is just the American M3 halftrack?
>>97794583some are bros
>>97794583despite what loreslop youtubers or reddit say, Custodes are not monolithic entities.They actually have varied personalities. Some are nice, some are assholes. Diocletian even went from disdaining normal humans before the Siege to pitying them and giving his cape to a lost kid.They just cannot disobey the Emperor.They can, and did, tell to his face how dumb some of his ideas are, like the whole primarchs project.Now compare that to (loyalist) space marines, whose personalities are basically an aspect of their primarch's.
>>97794540librarian makes sense if the Orkz get a weird boy as well. could mean they are redoing how Psychic works and want to give both sides a psyker
>>97794645If they were redoing psychic, don't you think they would have mentioned that in their big core rules shakeup? That's something that would have to be done codex by codex anyway.
>>97794544Finally, I was waiting for my cum delivery
>>97794668There's going to be an awful time like a year and a half into the game where half of the codex are newly designed for 11th Edition and half of them are all lagging behind with outdated rules that don't work properly with the new systems. I can already foresee most of the factions sitting on three mix-and-match mini detachments for half the edition while Space Marines and Orks have a dozen each.
>>97794540Can I just say this is probably the most unexcited i've been for marines in years? Who is this for? Give me bikes that arent ass to look at and arent ass to build.
>>97794668i doubt it's going to be a return of the psychic phase or anything, but maybe they just have some new abilities that do some new effect.i was just thinking there might be a reason that both sides have a psyker. but maybe there's no rhyme or reason
>>97794540guy on the bottom right thinks he is calgar
>>97794686Yeah, I don't really want to buy it as abig marinefag.There's nothing in that box you can't make with a minimal kitbash aside from maybe a Speeder, which was by far the least important of the classiv vehicles
>>97794171My edgy space sorcerers, updated with Ahriman and chickens
>>97794705This will be a really big test of how much of these starter box sales go to new players joining the game compared to existing players just looking to scoop up a good deal on a few new sculpts. Ork players might still want the box though.
>>97794719cool rhino
>>97794686Marines have been solved, there's nothing new to add there, they will just reskin the remaining Firstborn kits and then they will start to squat Primaris stuff
Post physique, anons. Let's see what sort of fa/tg/uys we've got in here.
>>97794738fuck off, manlet
>>97794017Cringeshit. Kys.

>>97794808Get. Help. No more (you)s, you've been a bad anon.
So what are you buying? me? Iam buying the 11th edish launch box, the red terror kill team box, the new defiler, Kravek Morne, Tyranid Prime with Lash Whip and Mutilators. in no particular order
I've been thinking about getting into modeling, maybe Space Wolves since I like the Viking thing and their chapter organization seems a lot cooler to me than the Codex. Even if a lot of their lore is a bit mary sueish at points. However they have no Long Fang models at the moment. Am I going to have to wait until half way through 11th when Russ comes back or are there some descent Primaris models that actually feel like they fit the role
If you woke up as the scion of a powerful rogue trader house in 40k, would you paint 40k minis and play 40k tabletop games with 40k characters?
>>97794821To paint or to add to the pile of shame?Me I'll wait for the multipart standalone kits, and I might grab the new guard KT when it's also standalone.Red terror looks great but I'd rather not jump into nids now
>>97794821Three Dorn tanks. Preparing to get back in with the 11th launch after leaving early 8th. It's really the only Gaurd thing I don't have for my Army.
>>97794342If you want a full on ww2 model, why not just buy ww2 models? I'm sure there's plenty of options for getting an m3 halftrack model out there
>>97794754In typical GW shortsightedness they built the cheapest possible terrain (just flatpanels that glue together to form walls) and then made rules that made the terrain almost essential, without realizing that every picture of a 40k game with that terrain would look like ass and hide all the wonderful sculpted models and fantastic painjobs that really sell the game.Chasing cheap bucks is responsible for enshittification.
>>97794832Get off the meds.
>>97794754Because massive events mean you need a fuck ton of terrain and it's easier to use basic functional shit then getting 100s of bespoke terrain pieces.
>>97794854Nta but you might want WW2 like stuff and not literally WW2 stuff.
>>97794832No. I'd have the crew of my ship dress up as armies and then have mock battles in the bowels of my ship
Anyone recommend a brush set or brand?
>>97794854nah if you're fan of ww2 shit you'll instantly recognize it and it will always feel out of place.
>>97794868But you'd at least paint them, right?
>>97794884never
>>97794855They should just make good terrain pieces themselves for use at tourneys or whatever and then offer them pre-painted for a premium or unassembled for a bit cheaper. Play a game and like a terrain piece? Buy it for your own personal use!I don't touch the actual game of 40k but I would imagine part of the appeal is having a feeling of your guys being involved in battles in diverse environments. Trenches, Urban warfare, mountain side. You could probably attract players to the store to play just by presenting them with cool map options they wouldn't be able to have at home.
All hail the Primordial Truth
>>97794884I'd actually have their skin and clothes bleached. Y'know, to make it genuine to the way my ancient ancestors played
>>97794897All hail the Primordial Soup
XIII Legion best legion
>>97794864where does the $300+ dollar ticket price costs go?
What 40k armies are actually fun to play as? What armies are fun to play against?
>>97794870Rosemary & Co. if you're looking for affordable sable of good quality
>>97794870winsor and newton series 7
>>97794867Right it's already pretty close to the source material as is. I don't know how you make any more ww2 aside from literally just making it an M3
>>97794921Imperial Agents
>>97794891I think i'm cautiously optimistic about 11th rules, the being able to hide in terrain while visible means that hopefully you don't have to hide behind things. I Started in 3rd edition and I remember building trench lines and buildings, but also forest and hills and canyons for games, shooting was less reliable then but could be way more swingy, a tank could just eat shots for days, or just explode in one shot. various editions had various rules, some of them had heavy cover saves that basically made sitting in area terrain a no brainer, while others allowed you to go to ground to increase your save with bonuses in certain terrain. Another solution was Night fighting, where you had true line of sight but there was a chance that either the first or the last turn would happen at night (either a pre dawn attack, or night descending after a long fight) and that limited the distance that you could draw true line of sight so first turn full board alpha strikes weren't possible on turn 1 or on turn 6 where fighting for objectives would come down to more personal local fights, and some units actually getting access to night vision. The game has never been more popular, and its not in its worst state, but its no longer as beautiful as it once was.
>>97794917The prize pool, mostly it's not like warhammer events are going gangbusters. I also wasn't aware of any having 300+ dollar tickets, even the US open is only like 250. Maybe narrative events get into that ballpark? But those are the ones you see actual terrain at
>>97794754 Terrain should be pooled from each player for more personalized games and fun interactions.>I brought lots of tall ruins to get plunging fire and and hide my melee squads behind>I brought fuel pipe arrays for -1 to charge + benefit of cover and woods for my move-shoot-move units>I brought a giant toppled statue because most of my army can move through it + titanic models are for fags
>>97794645There's a weirdboy in the trailer. He's the one vomiting green shit on dudes.
>>97794645>>97794977The Librarian is on the box cover too.
>>97794870monument dauntless synthetics. I paint almost everything with their 00s
>>97794939I think anon likes the models and think they are pretty close to ww2 stuff.You might have caught some mild contrarianism, which is a pretty common microbe here, it's a bit like a mild flu, it goes away on its own
>>97794821I'm buying all the new Drukhari models released this year. Same as every year. Gods, I just don't know what to do with all this money
>>97794945I don't believe you
I hope they bring Armiger squadrons back.I've got 18 of them.
>>97794750>I'm a competing athlete,Pics or I don't believe you.
If there was a choice between the game being broken favoring either melee or shooting armies, on principle it is better to favor the melee armies. Melee combat in a sci fi universe is what differentiates 40k from everything else, and on the tabletopmelee combat imo is just overall more fun to interact with.
I hope Grey Knights get a refresh. The Crowe model is pretty good and it looks like they'll be sticking to being Firstborn. The Terminus decree was retarded tho and I'm hoping we get something to replace baby carrier. Or if they just get folded into Imperial Agents.
>>97795023Fellow knight player, I must ask, do you like how the new destrier looks?
>>97795029Valrak says they are, and valrak clearly has an inside source for the past couple of years. Also, primaris as a concept i think is just being phased out entirely. Yes the models will stay, but the word "primaris" and the lore surrounding it will appear less and less.
>>97795034I think it looks alright, nothing to really write home about given what already exists. I do think the heads seem a little bit off.
>>97795029Rather, Imperial Agents, Grey Knights, and Deathwatch all get folded into one faction. Maybe add another inquisition aligned chapter into the mix and basically have Order Space Marines opposing Chaos Space Marines. I dont think ive met an Imperial Agents player once in my entire life.
What if Sisters of Battle got some cool sisters on bikes models instead of "literal who named character from OML #17"?
>>97795069Deathwatch, GK, and Sisters should all be rolled into the Agents codex (and have it renamed Codex: Inquisition)
>>97795071Women of good character can't ride bikes, the engine vibrations makes them cum.
>>97795026>Melee combat in a sci fi universe is what differentiates 40k from everything elseYeah. Except Star Wars, Dune, Klingons, Cyberpunk, Shadowrun, and Gundams. But aside from those it's pretty much only 40k.
Word Bearers or Night Lords?
>>97795078Women of good character aren't allowed to cum? How is that fair?
>>97795078SoB don't need to be celibate

>>97795083Night Lords, because you're a rapist.
>>97795083Word Bearers.
>>97795093They don't need to ride giant vibrating dildos either.
>>97795058Tbh i reallly like that face grille head, but i like that look for any model that has that sort of faceplate
>>97795098>>97795100The duality of man.
>>97795077I'm kind of against that because Inquisitorial Agents is where factions go to die and Sisters are alright, Deathwatch and Greyknights just need a little TLC. But I imagine it's hard to come up with rules that feel like they lean into the "Anti-Xeno" and "Anti-Chaos" theme without just making them "No Fun Allowed" when playing against those respective armies
>>97795105I don't think you've ever met a woman before and I'm 100% certain you've never ridden a motorcycle
>agents got 4th at adepticonwhat the fuck
>>97795114>But I imagine it's hard to come up with rules that feel like they lean into the "Anti-Xeno" and "Anti-Chaos" theme without just making them "No Fun Allowed" when playing against those respective armiesWhich is why they should be allies only, so IG or SM can situationally invest into becoming more effective against certain factions.

>>97795126It's the thing. They did the thing.
>>97795114>>97795127>>97795142the solution is to give agents ordo hereticus members access to Anti-Imperium
>>97795142which to most people is of little interest
>>97795154Not a bad idea, but it does still feel a bit hyper specialized. Kind of a dick move if it's a friendly game, ineffective if you're trying to be competitive. It would be funny to see Sisters get rules that specifically make them really good at killing IG and Space Marines.
>>97794003Legends rules exist and they're pretty good. Or just use them as warp spiders. Anyone who complains deserves castration
>>97795160Trying to balance 40k like it's an esport is a fools errand.

Hi, I'm building a commisar. I got him nearly complete to prime and paint but I had a questions related to bases;In regards to the little rock he stands on, should I do the base and add the rock, and add the actual commissar last? I don't want to cuck myself by placing him on it too early and I can't make it looks somewhat decent. Pic related
>>97795166It's more so about the fun aspect. How do you have a faction that's conceptually really good at fighting army X and then have it so the rules don't revolve entirely around crushing players X's balls
>>97793977Is it normal for aos to win yet again with the minis?
>>97795200what is happening in that pic?

bwos.... I'm thinking I might start an Eldar army for 11th
>>97795229It's got some unique features, but it's just generally a good sculpt.
>>97795249I was gonna start an aspect warrior army in 10th but I'm saving the money in case 11th has exodites.
>>97795219Cog fort is so fucking silly, I don't get why people are hyped about it. Looks like a unit straight out of some mobile game.

>Cog fort is so fucking silly
Besides GSC and Admech, what is the most complicated army to play?

>>97795258>but I'm saving the money in case 11th has exodites.God Willing.
>>97795271Not really, even some of the more absurd steam-punk stuff the empire had in fantasy was still grounded. The dwarves got a bit more out-there, I guess. Cog fort ventures into "lol so random" territory with it's absurdity.
>>97795280Is that supposed to be a close comparison?
>>97795200Maybe they won the booby prize.
>>97795262I really hate how uber high fantasy AoS isAnd how obsessed with centerpiece models GW is

>>97795200Very normal, /whfb/ is admitting they want the cogfort.
>>97795318>Cog fort ventures into "lol so random" territory with it's absurdity.Yeah, much like fantasy did when it blended literal 40k tier demon engines in it or apparently man o war shit.
>>97795406Nah, Cogfort is uniquely stupid. Foolish even.

>>97795210Pretty sure by characters, 40k is the one that ended with one (questionable) woman and a jeet Aos got nothing but white dudes with Jovian, zonn, the priest, and the mages.

>>97795413Harlequins lol
>>97795200I genuinely can't tell if you AoSissies are just trolling or if your tastes are really that awful
>>97795429I have always wondered, is the dolphin porn that goes around the same dolphin porn that first went around decades ago or there has been an influx of new and fresh dolphin porn?
>>97795433Imagine if they still did landsknecht style guys
>>97795451Yes indeed. Very muh historical. Look at how realistic and grounded this is
>>97795446This is genuinely more grounded and realistic than both the marianburg landship and the new AoS walking fortress. A golden priest statue war cart is like a 2 or a 3 on a 10 point low to high fantasy scale. It's something you could make in real life, it's not particularly fantastical outside of that it IS a made up fantasy world. Luminark of Hysh is like a 6. Walking magic tower is like an 8 or 9.
>>97795194I'd remove the rock

>>97795345>how uber high fantasy AoS isSometimes I get the sense anons in the Warhammer threads don't engage with much genre fiction (especially kitchen sink settings) outside of Warhammer.
>>97795512>if this shit comes out today everyone will shit on how unrealistic and high fantasy AoS design is.Nah.
>AoS/TOW gargant neverThe cockfort should've been more like a siege tower on wheels.
>>97795472Shut up, how dare you try to find nuance instead of just calling people a retard.
>>97795511wheels are just thousands of tiny feet arranged in a circle
>>97795318From an engineering PoV, the Steam Tank is an atrocity that's more ridiculous than magic.
I just finished watching Howls Moving Castle so if anything I'd like it if the Cogfort was more bulbous and fantastical in regards to it's locomotion. It's too down to earth.
>>97795522Wow, sounds way more effective than legs made out of wood.
>BretonniaOh yeah the faction with literal supersoldiers made from a magical source, who's god directly blesses them and causes them to live for hundreds of years, whose maidens can be taken to be wizards of ungodly renown are poor.>DwarfFantasy race who uses runes on everything.>EmpireSanctioned wizards, hedge wizards, hell, Dogs of War employed hedge wizards, and the mere existence of hedge wizards suggests magic is wide-spread enough for there to be untrained, uncontrolled magicians. Araby's people imprison djinn to do their bidding, whose viziers are wizards of incredible power, who use FLYING CARPETS AS WAR MACHINES.

>>97795511>That's on wheelsIt’s arguably more dumber for it to be on that considering the terrain it’s on. But I won’t let you people try and say that fantasy wasn’t dumb fun in its inception before its enshitification towards 6th edition. To deny that is to deny what warhammer is itself.
>>97795514Anons in WH threads are nitpicky whiners who have no idea wtf warhammer is all about.They whine when the IG is not a 1:1 copy of a ww2 army, despite the army is supposed to be bastardised satires of soldiers.They whine how space marines dont look like how they want to, despite it being the easiest faction to kitbash and customise.They whine how AoS is aburd, despite it looking the most like old WHF art.If it were up to them we would be playing Bolt Action for 40k and Middle Earth Strategy Game for AoS. And they would unironically say it would be a good thing.
>>97795505No see it's based when it's from the video games that got me into Warhammer. That makes it realistic! Like Skaven war wheels!
>>97795433Gross
I have the sudden urge to play again , but I haven't played since 2014. I have a Tyranid army of gaunts, carnifexes, warriors, hive guard and a hive lord. How are nids in the current edition?
>>97795549>It’s arguably more dumberNo it's not.>fantasy wasn’t dumb fun Sure, but AoS is just dumb.
>>97795549>I won’t let you people try and say that fantasy wasn’t dumb fun in its inceptionThat's the problem with modern views of WHFB. For some reason, people interpret it as grounded rather than filled with retcons and magic handwaves. And for some reason, people downsize the magic or even what factions were the most popular. It wasn't Empire or Bretonnian peasants 24/7, it was big bad armor man Viking Chaos Warriors who sold like hotcakes.
>>97795548I wish votann were as kino as the dwemer
>>97795549>large wheels are more unrealisticWhat a time to be alive...
>>97795560Melee warriors are good.Carnifexes are ok.Gaunts needs to be small scorers, or large blobs. Half-ish isn't that great.Score and ignore players almost always win with blob armies unless its khorne stuff.
>>97795295This looks like shit, m8
>>97795548>Tonal Architecture is Ballet Music all alonghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqq31QZU7sg
>>97795532you can have grounded and ungrounded stuff in the same world. The empire IS less high fantasy than chaos, lizard frog gods, magical shiny elves and BDSM evil elves. Which makes sense if you think it about it for two fucking seconds.
>>97795569NTA but that's nothing close. Other pic makes monster truck wheels look like legos.
why are AoS sissies so eager to defend their game being fantasy 40k?
>>97795565I bought a box of chaos warriors when the rereleased them for TOWthose niggas are pretty cool
>>97795542Asking a regular WH fan to kitbash is a big ask. They shit their pants when told to paint an army a different color. A headswap is a major accomplishment for them. Not building their minis like the instruction say is quasi impossible. What makes you think they have the creativity and brainwave to think up conversions and come up with the kitbash for it?
>>97795582>The empire IS less high fantasy than chaos, lizard frog gods, magical shiny elves and BDSM evil elves.You know that Flying Carpets can be taken by Empire in 8ed?
>>97795569Not comparable, the wheels would get fucked by the terrain on a fucking mountain or god forbid they encounter a small hill.
>>97795585You know that /40kg/ doesn't have an inherent like or dislike towards most other GW properties, and may contain oldfags who've played the other games and have a more accurate view of it?
>>97795585Because the reality is setting in that they're on borrowrd time. Everything revealed at Adepticon merely made the leak all the more likely. After years of trying to ragon Fantasy for dying, we're now at a point where Fantasy is outpacing AoS and AoS is about to get a 'reboot' to the grave.
>>97795433Has there ever in the history of Warhammer a black female player?
>>97795605>we're now at a point where Fantasy is outpacing AoSWhat
>>97795605that's why there were so many old world announcements at the show, right?
>>97795608Try that again my little SEA friend.
>>97795489>someone painted those old ass plastic trees LOL that's amazing
>>97795582>the empire is less high fantasy>with colleges of magic and steampunk impossible machinery
>>97795596Why not just make it a flying fortress if terrain is your concern?
>>97795608My penis is very curious.
>>97795582what your pic seems to forget is said le heckin based HVMAN FIGHTER will be wielding the sword of Deadly Midnight dealing psionic damage, wear the Amulet of Endless Illusions and the Cape of Invisibility, armored in the Armor of the Undying that lifesteals, and chugs a Potion of Hill Giant Strength before every fight.Oh and he has his Mage and Cleric allies spend their first turn buffing him with magic spells.
Out of nowhere, I am sad that whatever Nippon Games Workshop does won't be half as interesting as the Fire Nation. I'ma lso willing to bet the many Warhammer nations have a greater proportion of magic users than Avatar nations have benders. Dogs of War employed Hedge Wizards.
>>97795560Absolutely shit and terrible. And the worst part is that they aren't even weak, it's just that they are pillowfisted and fragile, but are good enough at scoring points (namely, standing on circles in the ground) that they can manage to win despite being wipe out and without killing anything. The only lucky thing is that a new edition is coming out in 3 months, so don't even bother learning the current one.
>>97795621that's just a zeppelin
>>97795618Wizards and war machines are just fantasy accents that complement the core of the faction, which is just ordinary men with swords and feathers in their caps.
>>97795582dont both replying to him, hes just a retard arguing for the sake of arguing. hes going to cherry pick fantasy elements from WHFB (which obviously exist its a fantasy setting) but the core point that the Empire is more grounded than the other factions in its setting, and far more than AoS (which goes past High Fantasy into Mythic Fantasy) is obvious to everybody. It has nothing to do with 40kg and thats the fucking point, its an intentional shitpost. >go into 40kg>brag about AOS>make retarded claim that will get 100 (You)s>pretend to be retarded for 4 hoursDon't reply to bait.
>>97795636Anon everyone is keeping their current rules into 11th edition
>>97795618>academia where dudes study fundamental forces of the universe and steam power?>how unrealistic!
>>97795645that's not a good thing for some armies
>>97795637
>>97795639>core of the faction, which is just ordinary men with swords and feathers in their caps.NTA but not the Warrior Priest with divine powers? Not the cannons in a setting most don't have gunpowder? The Emperor riding into battle on dwarf-forged armor and a magic warhammer?
>>97795642Cities of Sigmar is literally just the Empire of ManThey're essentially the same faction, retard
>>97795645Until the new rules come out...then you get to buy another outdated codex
>>97795642>MONKEY MEN WITH NO SHOES
>>97795635>whatever Nippon Games Workshop does won't be half as interesting as the Fire NationSure. It'll probably just be Cathay 2 electric boogaloo. >I'ma lso willing to bet the many Warhammer nations have a greater proportion of magic users than Avatar nations have bendersThat sounds like bullshit. Dogs of War have a handful of hedgewizards. Fire Nation has entire regiments of Fire benders, plus at least one on nearly every ship and tank they had.
>>97795651>fundamental forces of the universeUnder that logic, Hogwarts is the same as doing a degree in physics. As well as half the magic in AoS is just studying or manipulating preexisting magic physics.
>>97795645Yes, but first of all, the core rules are changing so learning the current ones for someone coming back from a decade long pause is only going to be wasted time at best and at worst cause confusion. Second there is the chance that some core rules changing will result in the faction rules working differently, a thing that happened often. And finally with a new edition coming there is going to be a new codex cycle, so there is hope of something.
>>97795659The heart of the faction is normal men with steel, gunpowder, and faith. Everything else is extra flavor.
>>97795666If JK rowling wasn't a hack, it would be.
>>97795642>but the core point that the Empire is more grounded than the other factions in its settingThat's not what the art likes to show.
>>97795636So you just spam guants and send them to cap objectives? Is there any reason they are so weak the current edition?
>>97795666>Hogwarts is the same as doing a degree in physics.Anon nobody learn anything about how magic works in Hogwarts. They just learn magic formulas by rote memorization.
>>97795637Exactly?
>>97795670Who's doing the judging? I remember Empire is delightfully fantastic, with its war orreries, lasers, kaiju griffons, land ships and god knows what else. This is just touching on the miniatures, ignoring the completely bonkers concept art. Bretonnia is fairly fantastic as well, with an assortment of faerie tale creatures and superhero knights. Araby only ever got a Warmaster army, but it was fun, with flying carpets, djinni and other 1001 nights stuff.
>>97795666why bring up such a dogshit series? the philosphers stone by JKR is meant for 1st graders and WHFB is meant for the intersection between lotr geeks and history wargamers
>>97795675Nobody learns much about how magic works in the Colleges unless they want their minds to explode. Usually it's a bunch of hedge wizards taught to control themselves and spells to hurl at the enemy..
>>97795672>A vast field of men and horses>Two floating towers>A griffonIt literally does though.
>>97795660then why does The Empire look so much cooler in Total War than AoS does in plastic?checkmate simgartard
>>97795689STOP FUCKING TAKING THE BAIT? DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THAT HES DOING IT ON PURPOSE?>>97795642
I’m so fucking glad I didn’t bother with fantasy beyond 5th edition. The new fan base is retarded retarded. I’d claim it to be Reddit but with the sense of some tumblrite entitlment. Almost wish I did for 40k, but black Templars were too cool. >remembers recent codex of black Templars turning grimauldus into a retard Gw sure does make it hard sometimes though.
>>97795670>normal men with>technology better than 90% of the rest of the setting>literal supernatural influenceWhat
>>97795675>They just learn magic formulas by rote memorization.so it's just like a real life university then
>>97795674>So you just spam guants and send them to cap objectives? There is other stuff, but the basic concept is yes. >Is there any reason they are so weak the current edition?They got the first codex of the edition, so powercreep left them behind. Also basically the new edition came out with the promise of a big rework to morale that was supposed to be very impactful to the game and make it a central point. And because Tyranids were the frontline army of the edition they got a major focus on it. Unfortunately GW is incompetent and Morale ended up being a complete nothingburger, and Tyranids got stuck with it.
>>97795637>no gasbags providing lift, let alone a rigid frame housing themIt very much is not a zeppelin.
>>97795697>The new fan base is retarded retarded.This is why I quit coming to /wfg/, fellow Skaven. A lot of the oldfags are gone, it's so many newfags pretending to be oldfags spouting opinions nobody would've said years ago. I even saw a thread where Gav Thorpe's>There are as many Elves as the story demandsgot someone asking if that's a bad thing.
>>97795696>it's bait because I don't like people pointing out fantasy has always been wacky!!!
>>97795681Which one of them had giant crab tanks, rather than mythological or exaggerated historical things?
>>97795710>furfag thinks he's superior to anyoneliterally kill yourself
>>97795715Technically, tons of fantasy are exaggerated historical things. Superhuman men wearing armor too heavy for any IRL person to walk carving through enemies without tiring.
>>97795715Well chaos did I suppose
>>97795704Nowhere near the same, but it makes sense because you know, Hogwarts is High School. So it's the same as a trade school. The funny thing is that higher education doesn't actually exist in Potterland.
>>97795717Which furfag players are the strongest? Beastmen? Skaven? Space Wolves? Lizardmen?
The FortKnight is stupid and dumbSimple as
I am sad because 8th edition didn't givve Bretonnia these beast mounts. . Empire 8th edition Armybook clearly states that Kislev had whole ORDERS of bear cavalry in similar fashion to demigryph and bretonnian hyppogriph knights
Take this shit to aosg you fucking retards
>>97795726Space Wolves
>>97795617I’ve had them for like 30 years, 20 in a bits box lol
>>97795730Yep, it’s warhammer coded.
>>97795726Due to 40k being the much bigger IP, Space Wolves have an advantage none of the others got.
I miss the days when Empirefags didn't think their faction was the defining faction of the setting like the delusional retards they are.THIS is peak Warhammer.
I blame this general for making my first thought of space wolves being the drill.
>>97795697>remembers recent codex of black Templars turning grimauldus into a retard>"Oh no! The head Fanatism officer of the most fanatic chapter did something fanatic!"If you want reasonable black space marines, you have the Raven Guard. Black Templars rallying zealot normal humans to charge at the enemy to bog them down is perfectly normal. How else can you have Chaos Marines stay in place long enough to drown them in holy oils?
>>97795744Chaos in WFB is so much cooler than chaos in 40k...
>>97795740there are more skaven players than yiff players
>>97795724Daemons, specifically. Warp spawned monster made of metal is not that different from a Warp spawned monster made of flesh.
>>97795744It's still my heancanon that Chaos Lords in WHFB or AoS without hypno-indoctrination the way CSM get have higher willpower. Especially if they grew up with a family and have normal emotions. CSM have so many crutches compared to them.
>>97795748Not reading that but him causing a bunch of unneeded deaths diminishes his character and is the ongoing problem of grimderping warhammer.I’m not wording this properly because I have now begun mobile positng, and I’ll now be posting like a drunkard.
>>97795751There are more sold paint pots than sold skaven minis.Sit your ass down.
>>97795768there are more sold paint pots than every faction but vanilla marinesskaven are the second most popular faction in AoS, keep coping all you want, the furfag marines are mogged by them
>>97795766>unneeded deathsHuman life is not a precious resource in warhammer though? Dying for the Emperor and his angels is the greatest thing those humans can ever accomplish

>>97795780>skaven are the second most popular faction in AoSHe said it like its a big thing. Fucking Tyranids sells more than all of AoS
>>97795796coping hard
>>97795730
What chapter has the best successors?
>>97795796Tyranids are one of the most popular 40k armies.
>>97795812Who're pic's gene seed from?
So this is just a basic plan. I tend to over-do my armies but since I have decided I will be selling a bunch of stuff... I'm going to focus on two armies, one I already own a bunch of HH MKII marines un-assembled.Cultist is a perfect-to scale to the Primaris marine that'll make my dudes feel like "not guardsmen in armor". I like uniformity in the marine armors like they produced their own armor from an ancient lost factory.I'm thinking a brass look with gold highlights.
>>97795817I am now sad no Dreadnought has drill feet.
>>97795817thousand sons
>>97795817Raven Guard
>>97795817>Not a Primaris unit in sightKINOOOOOOOOO
Redfield Corsairs
>>97795731AoS has all the esoteric stuff you see in old WHF art, but that's a conversation most people arent ready to have, apparently.If TWWH actually adapted the things we see in the art and not just the minis, it would be an AoS game, minus the basic stormcast troops.
>>97795865Empire in 8ed could take Araby Flying Carpets. Are they in Total War yet?
>>97795812Imperial Fists
>>97795865I, too, enjoy going online and making up shit.
>>97795311I swear to god if we don't get at least a killteam this edition
Anybody know any good female Chaos Space Marine head options?
>>97795812Imperial Fists have Black Templars so that's hard to beat. I'm a fan of Space Piracy so I lean toward Raven Guard for the Space Sharks. No not carcharodons, they're Space Sharks.
>>97795812IF and RG have cooler successors than themselves. IH are within a hair.The Istvaan legions have better successors than average, maybe because for a while they didn't have any for a while, they had longer to cook in the forge.BA are my favorite first founding chapter but their successors are all really similar. They're basically alternate paint jobs.
>>97795877SEXODITES WITH EXODITES
>>97795812IF has the CF and the BT both are awesome
>>97795892I never did get why Crimson Fists were so hyped outside of their last stand.
>>97795548Votann army.
>>97795890>realizing I probably made a Lamenters fan burst a blood vesselI kinda consider them their own thing, they're almost as far as Astral Phantoms are from DA. That's probably heretical, sorry.
>>97795863he looks like a soijak
>>97795901How many 40k armies worth of money have you spent on Bungie's slop shop?
How would anon handle this plot twist?
>>97795812Blood Angels. They all try to be something different.DA successors are just DAs in different colors (t. DA fag)SW don't have much and they're also SW in different colorsUltramarines are a mixed bag at best.Sallamanders have a few weird ones, but ultimately either differently colored Sallies or basic like ultras.Iron Hands succs are coolIf succs are better then the originalRaven guard succs... Exist
>>97795901I like it.
>>97795781>>97795782Marines are on a sliding scale from heckin wholesome Salamanders and Lamenterinos to Marines Malevolent and Subjugators (I didn't mean to pick a green and yellow example for each).BT aren't Lamenters but they aren't Marines Malevolent either.
>>97795865>mfw those undead minisYes please give me in TW WH.
>>97795926>They all try to be something different.What do you mean? It's always either "I HAVE TO DRINK BLOOD AND I'M SAD ABOUT IT" or "I HAVE TO DRINK BLOOD AND I'M NOT SAD ABOUT IT"
>>97795890>BA are my favorite first founding chapter but their successors are all really similar.>>97795926>Blood Angels. They all try to be something different.Now fight.

Lads what should my next army be out of Necrons, Custodes or Ultramarines.
>>97795962Steel Legion
Should I buy the 40k or the HH leman? Is there like, a difference in size or something?
>>97795958>I HAVE TO DRINK BLOOD AND I'M NOT SAD ABOUT ITFlesh Eaters and Flesh Tearers, >I HAVE TO DRINK BLOOD AND I'M SAD ABOUT ITLamenters and Angels Encarmine
>>97795958>Flesh Eaters, Flesh TearersLiterally BA with edge.>Lamentersok>Angels EncarmineWow, white Sanguinary Guard, I never would have recognized them.>>97795962Necrons are cool.Ultramarines CAN be cool but people will assume you're a scrub.Custodes, they'd be right that you're a scrub.
>>97795932BT would protect imperial citizens, but they'd also motivate them to jump at an ork warboss with explosives on if needed.They dont shell some citizen camp, but they're not going to babysit them either.Grimaldus' growth in Helsreach is him respecting normal humans. Him trusting his mortal serfs to hold back Chaos Space Marines long enough to drown them is actually on brand."Fanatical, religious zealots" are the definition of Black Templars
>>97795948Oh, it's mexicans larping as chads. That explains it.
>>97795962Make an excuse fo why Blood Ravens managed to steal Necron gear. They've already taken Custodes and Ultramarine weapons.
>>977959741/10 meme too overused
>>97795977blood ravens are one of the most redditor chapters that only secondaries like
>>97795974>Descended from Imperial FistsCloser to Argentinians IYKYK
>>97795962Anything but custodes don't give them money for that shit
>>97795968The HH Leman doesn't have sponsors
>>97795974>mexicansAmerican education
I prefer if Custodes were one or two units for an Imperial Agents thing rather than an army. IMO it reduces them to another MEQ army and thus less special.
>>97795962If you paint ultrasmurfs I will come to your house and rape you in the ass with a power poleAt least paint up one of their successorsOr paint them like another chapter and use one of the HH models as a proxy for Rawbutt
>>97796009What if anon's a Slaanesh cultist who is now encouraged to do Ultras?
>>97795984Fuck off try-hard.
What should they have done to make votann not dull and boring? Have tjem embrace mutants and abhuman units in some militaristoc way? Have them come from a high gravity world and have gravity manupulation gimmick weaponry? Releass space Skaven instead?
>>97795903I like it better when the Lamenters are basically their own thing with next to zero ties to the rest of the BA since they don't really fit in with the rest. Probably because they don't have the gay space vampires vibe.
>>97796021Make them fat with strength.
40k Ultramarines so vanilla they loop back around to being a pretty unique army
>>97795971>Ba with edgeUsing the black rage vs turned insane by the red thirst>>97795969lamenters don't drink blood, maybe that's been retconned
>>97796021Not use those shitty NASA aesthetics for starters
>>97796021have them all like the asgard where they're all genetic freaks due to millennia of cloning
>>97796026It fits with their bad luck but imo giving them have the normal blood angels flaws makes them seem less unique
Guys what faction should I make all these space marines I got in the Leviathan box and the Indominus box? I don't have a favourite faction as I don't really care for space marines to begin with but since I have them all I want to do something with them, so people can use them when they come over for a game.
>>97796021Solarpunk Votann
>>97796032This. I prefer them as "trading" the geneflaw with something worse (bad luck"
>>97795968HH tanks don't have sponsons.I have to say, who would've thought that the way to make people stop complaining about 40k tanks having riveted construction was to put even more rivets on the things and suddenly they're the greatest thing since sliced bread.
>>97796021I don't think you could. Their niche doesn't really do a good job of letting them fit into the whole dynamic of "Dying Empire" vs "Things Killing Dying Empire".I think that if instead of being so Dwarfy with their design they should have gone more for blinged out Turbo Jew Space Bankers suckling on the Imperium's fucked up economy and stripping down whole planets when some Planetary Governor doesn't pay back a debt.
>>977960213D print the bits that replace their wheeled vehicles with tracks and get them some proppa dwarfy heads
>>97796021Give more NASA. Make 50-60s style sci-fi.
>>97796026>I HAVE TO [...] SAD ABOUT IT-Lamenters Chapter Master circa 40,999
>>97796026>Using the black rage vs turned insane by the red thirstThose are two edgy factors from BA turned up, yes.>>97796029NASA aesthetic is the only interesting part, did you really need another fake viking faction?
>>97796036Alpha Legion
>>97796021Travel back in time and add them sooner.
>>97796021Trains
>>97796004They're a TEQ army anon. Their basic troop is a souped up Terminator.I actually like them for that. They play like how Space Marines are depicted in video games and series.
>>97796058Space Trains?
>>97796072They lay tracks throughout real space as an alternative to warp travel
>>977960211. Don't be afraid of them being dwarves.2. Be afraid of them being Dwayrfkyn.
>>97796058This looks like absolute garbage.

>>97795968No sponsons and slightly longer from the engine and trench rails. Potentially relevant in a tournament but I don't suspect you have any interest in tournaments. There's a bunch of third part or kitbash solutions for the sponsons.
I still haven't settled on a colour scheme for my Chaos Knights.Also do you guys think the Destrier will also be available for CKs?
>>97796081Since they already have AI you might as well let them into the Webway. Honestly I think the League was too distinct from the rest of the Imperium, it really should have been fluffed up as a sort of mercantile counterpart to the Navigators or Mechanicus. Less powerful overall, but still responsible for a lot of raw resource extraction and interstellar trade that they use as leverage for special deals and more autonomy same as the Mechanicus.
>>97796021>mfw it'd take millions of times earth's gravity to make notable time dilation for a fight that isn't fought at light speeds>mfw Gojo vs Sukuna will upscale Gojo into time dilating Sukuna but we won't have that in 40k
>>97796090Rock Raiders is kino. Playing their PC game and owning a lot of the sets really make me love caves and mining and heavy industrial equipment. The only thing that's really scratched that extremely speciffic itch I've had since I was a kid was Deep Rock Galactic.
>>97796134Your STCs have arrived.
>>97795881
>>97796130No.
>>97796146Yes, pretty much the Vansaar, just upscaled to an Imperium wide level and only really dealing in bulk directly with the upper rungs of the Imperium's war machine as opposed to Vansaar fleecing private buyers.
>>97795622Nice brown 40k???
>>97796140See they're pulling from good stuff, the problem is that Votann:Weren't around during the Imperial Armour era so they don't get that milsim crunchinessWere around during the grog era but GW will only give the grogs what they want when every other option has been exhaustedWere (re)created during the slop era so they have stupid names and blocky unrealistic designs.Like the other anon said, time travel is the best option. The other options are to give their best to a faction that doesn't economically justify it (if they even can), or rip off something more competent like Deep Rock Galactic or >>97796163.The only other thing Votann has going is the Ironkin, even with Necron and Tau I don't think there are sentient AI as such in 40k otherwise.
Armies that should not exist, and just be lore things:>Adeptus Custodes>Genestealer Cults>Chaos KnightsArmies that should not exist independently, and be part of another army:>Adeptus Mechanicus>Imperial Knights>Imperial Agents>HarlequinsArmies that should exist, but don't:>ExoditesArmies that should be part of another army, but don't exist:>Eldar CorsairsArmies that shouldn't exist, and don't:>Dark Mechanicus>Lost and DamnedArmies that should be separated and have their own unique rules, Space Marine Chapter-style>Ork Clans>Eldar Worldships
>>97796178>Armies that shouldn't exist, and don't:>>Lost and DamnedGO BACK TO FUCKING /V/
>>97796134Their problem in the modern Imperium is that abhumans probably wouldn't be allowed to have a special status but making them just the equivalent of an IG regiment would be pretty bland as well. As for the design, if you took the runic decorations from Votann and slapped them onto the Necromunda Squats with some less retarded looking guns, I'd find them to be a bit cooler. And give them back land trains in some form. Surely GW can figure out some sort of tracked articulated vehicle design.
>>97796178There should be no armies separated into special snowflake factionsAll loyalist marines should be under one codexAll chaos marines should be under one codexEnd of discussion.
>>97796190
>>97796178Shockingly accurate, except>just be lore things:All of those could be units attached to another army.>should be separatedAlmost never works out economically, look at all those codex supplements that only lasted for one edition.>>97796184>Marines, Chaos Marinesok>Eldar, Chaos Eldarok>Guard, Chaos GuardREEEEEEEE THEY WERE IN A BIDEO GAME

>>97796200he's got kawaii anime eyes
What Armies are the most fun to play AGAINST in general? Is it the humble space marine or is there something better than that?
>>97796218Orks always. Tyranids are fun too.
>>97796184What do you think that army would even be? It would just be Guard with more demons instead of tanks.
>>97796224No wonder Octarius was so good for the both of them.
What's the easiest thing to learn that made your models look better that you thought was hard but actually wasn't?For me, it's scratches and battle damage.
>>97796232Using oil instead of acrylic washes for shading.
>>97795818Cool idea, post a few minis after you've done them
>>97796218Orks or Guard if they're not being tank spamming faggots.
>>97796237What IS the difference?
>>97796243How many tanks is tank spam? I have 1 Dorn, 3 Russes, 3 Chimeras, and 2 armoured sentinels in a list. Too many? (I don't play 10th really)
>>97796157Aren't those sized for SoB bodies, not SM bodies?
>>97795532>but a tower that walk is beyond the paleIts a design issue, if they had gone with the flying towers concept from the scrapped 9th edition it would have been better.
>>97796258That's not that bad, only 4 actual tanks. It's the toughness that matters, not just being a vehicle. So the transports and sentinels don't count. Tank spam is usually 2+ rogal dorns and like 5+ russes.
>>97796247Open wide!There's about 1000 youtube videos on it, it's quite possibly the biggest innovation in mini painting since contrast paint.
>>97796269>magical rock base>medieval tower>sails on the sides>anchor with chains>some ballast hanging from the sides>big cannon on the front>ballista on top>archers and handgunners in windowsWould be nice.
What faction jobs the most, and why is it Orkz?
>>97796291Guard. Loses to xenos/chaos so that space marines can save them. They job to the jobbers.
>>97796281I remember going to a GW shop randomly and they were giving us free marines and a pot of contrast paintI thought "wow this blue would work well for Alpha Legion if you undercoat it silver" and never bought a single pot.
>Siege of Terra in the HH M31>GSC uprising on Terra so serious the Custodes left the Palace to help put it down M41>Khornes daemons invade terra when Cadia fell and the galaxy was bisected, 8 legions of bloodletters led by 8 bloodthirster, who the Custodes once again put down after many lossesAre there any other direct attack on the Palace/Terra I'm unaware of. No attacks for ten thousand years then two in the same hundred years or less is pretty wild
>>97796302Lmao.I bought Baal red to undercoat metallic. Anons who have used it will be laughing because that doesn't work, it's one of the few semi-opaque ones.I don't use it a lot because it's just more expensive Pyrrole red, which I already had.
>>97796311War of the BeastThere was also fighting on Terra during the Age of Apostasy
>>97796269floating wizard towers raining magical artillery is actually a much cooler concept i wish i had my own floating wizard tower right now, i would never ever want a goofy looking walking castle to live in that sounds nausea inducing.
>>97796262they're prints, you can just have them bigger
>>97796311It's not that nothing happened in 10k years, it's that it's not a focal point and the records are poor for the intervening years, especially the age of apostasy like >>97796317 says.Even big deals like Badab we only have the abridged version because we're looking at Imperial records instead of having viewpoint characters, since it's historical to 40k.
>>97796291SoB exist to be zealous retards that get killed when they want to show a threat is more than normal humans can handle
>>97796169That hand is scuffed
>>97796311Age of Apostasy had a shooting war between the space pope and his proto-sob against another faction of guard/marines until the custodes took the leaders of the proto-sob to the golden throne and made them realize the space pope was a faggot
>>97796325I've never printed stuff before, is there like a guide to having that kind of thing done? Those heads don't seem to be on the dakkadakka store anymore
>>97796247Great capillary action, extremely easy cleanup, no coffee stains, rich colors.>>97796281>since contrast paintI have a very low opinion of contrast paints.
>>97796341It's funny how Vandire was the master of the Administratum and merely usurped the position of the Ecclesiarch, but the Ecclesiarchy gets blamed for the whole incident. The government literally investigated itself and found not to be at fault.
>>97794165me too manThey couldn't even give the tit plate giant knockers
>>97796358Ecclesiarchy provided the brainwashed soldiers that kept him in power.What did Vandire do that was so bad for the Imperium anyway. Seems like he was sick of internal bickering and strong manned his way to power to actually get shit done
>>97796375>actually get shit doneWhat shit? Destroying the Imperium? Because he was fast tracking that better than anyone else before him for sure.
wack I can't find my Vallejo black drop bottle. Guess it's a sign?
>>97796375>What did Vandire do that was so bad for the Imperium anyway.He was insane and kept consolidating power under himself.
>>97796021>What should they have done to make votann not dull and boringthey arent>Have them come from a high gravity worldThats what beserks are>have gravity manupulation gimmick weaponryThey have grav weapons as something they use more than other factionsTheir lore is no worse than any other 40slop, just less because they are fairly new. What's important is the models are cool, and if you think they look like short space marines or generic buddy do you know what fucking game are you playing?

>>97796389anyone who owns a primaris space marines has NO FUCKING PLACE to talk shit about votann designs lmao.>>97796422there is actually rules for a knight combat patrol of 3 armigers, maybe use those missions instead so its a bit more balanced?
>>97796375>Ecclesiarchy provided the brainwashed soldiers that kept him in power.I'm pretty sure leading the government and the military had something to do with it as well.>to actually get shit doneWhat did he get done, other than kill billions of people for his sick kicks and hunger for power?
>>97796422How does that even work? Who's your character? Also is this your intro game or someone else's intro game?
>>97796429Nevermind I forgot war dogs can be characters in a certain detachment
>>97796425>>97796426>>97796429I'd be learning from some people that regularly play 10thWar dogs are cheap second had so it seemed like an affordable way to get startedI think they wanted to play regular games instead of combat patrol but I can ask about adapting those objectivesMy main concern was that I'd be bringing to much armor for another 500pt army to deal with and that it would lead to shitty games
>>97796468>My main concern was that I'd be bringing to much armor for another 500pt army to deal with and that it would lead to shitty gamesit will indeed lead to shitty games
>>97796468I mean knights are always gonna be a skew list regardless of the number of points you're playing at, so I don't really see a problem unless they just don't wanna fight knights at all
>>97796468You might be able to just use the missions from the knight combat patrol mode. They have alternative missions that dont revolve around just stat checking your opponents.Or just ask them "hey I'm new, I have 3 wardogs is that okay I don't really know what I'm doing and I'm worried the game won't be fun because they are high toughness". TALK TO PEOPLE, if its a teaching game it should be 100% fine, and if they have large collections and are above 100IQ they are probably smart enough to bring a list that can actually interact with those dogs.You are a newb, most actual IRL communities are very n00b friendly and will be willing to work with you.
I keep on wondering if Marines are potty trained or not (or if they lost their potty training) given their armor recycles their waste.
>>97796493>I keep on wonderingwonder about something else bruh
Why does GW hate nids so much? They were good for a single edition in their entire existence as a faction.
