Let Chaos idols take this thread!
I like orks :D
>>97883462WHERE ARE YOUR PAINTED MODELS?!
do you think the emperor has ever scratched his ass or is he so perfect he doesn't even get an itchy ass
>>97883462>TQ: How’s your WIP? unfortunately, as soon as I got home I spent the next 6 hours in bed doing fuck all, but I did get up at some point to paint some of the metals on, and put some more coats on the shoulderpads.
>>97883498Nice Space Marines anon.
>>97883463just because someone said nice picture doesn't mean we need to circlejerk about BA
>>97883502That explains why every game is Space Marines vs Space Marines. All the other factions are just wearing their looted armor all the time!
>>97883483I EATED THEM!!!
I havent played a game since 7th edition and havent painted since 9th. Now my instagram feed gets full of 40k content and it makes me wanna put together those rubric marines i bought years ago.
>TQI'm still working on it, alright? Had a rough week.
>tqjust based and varnished this lad onto the next
>>97883599sad to hear, anon. he does look really great so far though :)
>>97883603what a spaniard
>>97883462>T'au edition>How's you're work in progressI finally built my last crisis suits. Need to paint them. But I have a lot of writing i need to do first.
>>97883565It wouldn’t be a bad time to get your army in order with a new edition around the corner.
>>97883618This isn't complete until the venerable dreadnought calls them EPIC FAILS in impact.
>>97883462>Tau editionQuestion for all the blueberries ITT: How do you feel about the more cynical portrayals of the Tau like in Fire Caste? It's less insufferable than the stereotypes but I wonder if it's more "Tau for people who don't like Tau" or just more nuanced.>>97883603I like how stark the colors are, very retraux.Are you airbrushing at point blank? Very flat coats with just a suggestion of overspray. If not, what paint is that?
How do I get over doing like 3 layers of highlights on a basic battleline legionary or guardsmen?It really hinders me from getting stuff done but I feel like I’m making a hamburger without any lettuce or tomato on a untoasted bun. It’s something I’m struggling with so I’m curious about how you anons found your sweet spot in army painting. Pic unrel
>>97883647I didn't, I take like 2 evenings to paint one marine and I like it that way desu.
>>97883633I love Fire Caste. Its the exact sort of portrayal of Tau that I love. For me the perfect example of that sort of Tau is encapsulated in using Gue'vesa as Breachers, and Breachers only. I love the sort of Subtle evil that the Tau can be. Especially with Ethereal's. That said, I also like the super optimistic tau, but for that I like to think that Farsight enclaves work best.
>>97883483I need context of this.And 40k edits.Like that guy being edited like a 40k inquisitor.
>>97883462
I'm using Tamiya Extra Thin Cement for assembly and I got 2 questions, when trying to hold to pieces together, do I put heavy pressure on it or just gold it lightly?And when trying to let go of a piece gently after placing it on a body, my finger gets sticky. How do I prevent this?
>>97883669Punished Dorn?
>>97883669>Every successor chapter has replaced Imperial Fists in popularity that they're wanting Dorn in Black Templar colorsImagine being an Imperial Fist fan.
>>97883647For chaff you are 100% justified in drybrushing instead of layering up. If you look at the old painting guides it was standard operating procedure for the grogs, and if it's good enough for them it's good enough for me.You will want to learn how to drybrush well though, if it's all streaky you'll be convinced it's no good.
>>97883679>pressureHold it firmly in place, apply some pressur, not enough that you damage the model obviously, but don't just like it sit lightly on there either>my finger gets stickypowder-free nitrile disposable gloves, the cheap ones that have like 100-200 in a pack
>>97883664>I need context of this.Jason Thomas Nichols >what's his deal https://files.catbox.moe/8mmgp2.mp4
>>97883691pressure*don't just let it*man I'm getting worse at typing every day
>>97883698The brain rot comes for us all.
>>97883686IF players have some of the highest morale around desu. I think it's because the yellow stands out so much, plus they feel catered to for being "the other vanilla marines".
>>97883462>TQIt's a mess but it's starting to come together
>>97883705>IF players have some of the highest morale around>plus they feel catered to for being "the other vanilla marines".fresh delusion
>>97883679If your finger is getting sticky then you're letting the cement get where it shouldn't be by either applying too much or applying it sloppily. It can be tricky to avoid this if you're doing a seam weld since in that case you deliberately apply excess cement so it squeezes out the top and it can be tricky to avoid making a mess, but if you're just attaching an arm or a leg or something it probably just means you're applying too much and making it overflow/run.
>>97883618What if it's a battlecry connected to the 6th and 7th companies, a reminder of their status as the first of the reserves to be deployed? Huh? Ever thought of that?
>>97883664https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_-rE8bZJ3A
How do you like the new terrain layouts and rules for 11th edition?
>>97883664
Do you think they'll get rid of tacs and devs in 11th?
>>97883712Bro I literally know an IF player with a car in IF colors.Who has higher morale? Ultramarines fluoride drinkers?
Imperial Fists primaris intercessors
>>97883698I have a friend who's not dumb or anything but his texts are like some MKUltra activation phrase gibberish on many occasions.
>>97883705>"the other vanilla marines".Are Imperial Fists really what most SM homebrewers default to when they don't want their guys to be Ultramarines due to how Ultramarines are the corporate posterboy?>If yesDoes this mean that making one's successor an Ultramarines successor chapter is more original than an Imperial Fists successor?
How do I make an Alpha Legion army for 40k?
>>97883715>you're applying too much and making it overflow/runShould I wipe it all over the cracks or just dab it in a few spots? And how else am I gonna have it to stay if I don't put on a bit more?
>>97883751play DA
>>97883462Not too much longer.
>>97883736Slightly better than now, but everything still being L-shape ruins is lame.
>>97883738Nah, I think they'll stay as a legacy unit without ever actually officially going to Legends
>>97883748"Codex compliant Ultramarines successor" is rare as an origin for homebrew chapters despite being the stated most common type of chapter, yes.
>>97883768great job on the flesh so far, lovely
>>97883462>How goes your current WIP?got two potential collage entries assembed and primed, as well as a necromunda juve to add to my gang
>>97883748IF is common as a homebrew because it lets you do whatever you want while giving you special boy pointsWhen the real special boy is tastefully divergent ultramarine successor. That's the real spice.
What army does Groyper play?
How am I supposed to use highlights? So far I've just been putting them on edges and points
>>97883739>I know a single retard that means my anecdotal evidence means literally anything
>>97883815he talks about playing but just has 2-3 boxes in a closet
>>97883815Why doesn't the Imperium celebrate Easter though
>>97883726>>97883694Thanks!>>97883737>that image filterI need to know what this is.
>>97883791>>97883808Does this mean that the whole time making your guard dudes a "mimic" of the Cadians is also more unique than most homebrew guard regiments?
Two niggers
>>97883824NTA butThat's literally me.Except more boxes.
>>97883751
>>97883863Sci fi regiments are insanely cool "historical but in space" is lame as fuck.
where do i find the 500 world books on the warhammer webstore?
WTF happend to Codexes/Codecies? I've been out of the hobby for a while and I'm trying to get my kid into it and he like the Tyranids and there is almost no lore in the Codex. How the fuck is he supposed to like the units or the army? There isnt even fucking pictures of the models. WTF are they doing here? I started at 2nd ed and they had great lore for each unit/model and made me fall in love with them. WTF is going on?
>>97883872>>97883895This shit right here is what my 2nd ed codex had in it, lots of it.
>>97883888That along with every narrative campaign book are "while stocks last" meaning they won't be restocked. Your best bet is finding one at your local game/hobby shop. 500 Worlds I've noticed isn't too hard to find even online. Others like Maelstrom will be much harder to find.
>>97883904oh true, i was just looking for campagin supplment rules part :')
>>97883895Yeah, codex quality has dropped immensely since about 8th edition. Less narrative snippets, smaller gallery sections, fewer conversions and painting guides, and less cool evocative art replaced by digital renditions of models reproduced exactly or low quality portraits.
>>97883888>>97883904I got 500 worlds today. Is there no digital copy for the book? I cant find one like I do in the Codexes.
>basecoat almost done on collage entry>already losing interest>think of challenging myself on a technique to keep interest>remember i'm covering it in grime and blood lateridk, space wolf colors are boring. do i drybrush as a joke then?
>>97883341As someone subbed to the Combat Patrol magazine currently (58 issues in) I can raise the same sentiments as the other people who replied to you>Do you like the armies? If you like like at least 6/9 of them or have a friend you'd be up to splitting it with, then yeah it's a good deal. For me it was>Already collected Imperial Guard & World Eaters>Wanted to start Marines, CSM, and Orks>Had no interest at first but now have a full 2000+ points in Eldar along with a Titan I'm gonna be working on this summer.>Selling the Votann stuff to a Friend>Not totally sure what I wanna do with the Tyranid/GSC stuff yet.If you only really want 2-3 of the armies then it's not really worth it.>Is it good for a new player?The magazine contents are very good at this part, It's primarily coded around the Combat Patrol game mode but it does provide the basic contents of the core rules included in later issues too. It won't be a 1/1 jump into true 40k though (Ignoring that 11th edition is gonna be out in 2-3 months the Eldar Combat Patrol still uses Fate Dice for its army rule). IMO I feel like it's been worth it, I've gotten some pretty nice models out of it and it's nice getting a new drop of issues every 4 weeks.
How do we make GSC more interesting?
>>97883911They are not digital. The detachments included in each narrative book are added to the WH40K app for free after the book is released. Special rules are not made available in the app.
What book contains these datasheets?
How would you fix Knights(both kinds) as an Army? Without just removing them.
>>97883866hey! that’s not nice to say about your minis!
>>97883936Huron's update was first availble in the Maelstrom campaign book. The datasheet should be available to you in the app if you already own Codex: Chaos Space Marines. If you do not own the codex, that is what you will need.
>>97883941New rule for void shields, it's an infantryish defensive profile you have to chew through before you can get to the anti tank profile. Regens whatever wounds a turn. Replaces the invuln.
>>97883941Just remove them.
>>97883947There are 3 books in the campaign box, which one is it in?
>>97883933Big tits queen of the swarm named character who leads rebellion not just against the Imperium but against the overmind of the Tyranid hivefleets as well and actually does believe in overthrowing both tyrannical powers for the union of the Cults and Genestealer independence and suffrage.
>>97883941Hey I recognize that Knight!
>>97883941Give them bondsman with OC2 and reduce the OC on KNIGHTS down a bit and take away their special action rules so people have to actually use infantry alongside the mechs.Also give them more brackets so they're no always fighting at full power and combat effectiveness even when more than half their wounds are gone.
>>97883941Relegate them to a 3000+ point "Apocalypse" game mode along with flyers and primarchs.
>>97883941Give them a ton of serf infantry. Make them like guard with lots of disposable infantry with tanks but it's medieval peasants with knights.
>>97883973I apologize. You shouldn't need any of the books to find the datasheet. It doesn't look like they will be in a book until the next codex for CSM.
>>97883941increase points or limit the amount of knights you can bring and expand the range to include normal dudes in 40Kified medieval getup who serve the knight.
>>97884001What - The - Fuck ?! I bought the books and couldnt find the fucking data sheets.... THEY ARNT IN THE GOD DAMN BOOKS??
>>97883997iconoclast fiefdom exists and is significantly less cancer to play against than normal knights
>>97883997Based and correct.>>97884034Yes but it needs to be built into the army and codex as the default and not a grotmas free soup detachment they may not even keep going forward.
>>97884010That is correct. It's not all doom and gloom though. You still have the Crucible of Champions rules that will likely never see a digital release. Personally I am envious of you since I was never able to secure my own copy.
>>97883462>current wipfinally getting around to assembling my dark angels army to replace my ultras. picrel
>>97884075Yes it's neat imo, getting a setting within 40k where the Imperium isn't an overbearing prescense is a nice change of pace.
>>97884076I like inner circle but the terminators are trying too hard. I hope the storm wing shit gets a good update though, I generally like those concepts more.
I feel bad for EC players. 20 years of waiting just for the most boring models ever
>>97884130>EC playersdon't exist
>>97884134
>>97883748>>97883712>>97883705Personally I think the black on yellow is really stark and looks nice even as a blob of massed infantry. The high contrast helps distinguish every model well. against the monocolor terrain and obj discs they’re very easy to spot Also the name and emblem are just cool.
>>97884147>IF and UM This anon is addicted to vanilla.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>97884159better than being a furfag, desu senpai
>>97883462Mashallah I didn't touch it this weekend
>TQI’m running behind, but making good progress
>>97884196hell yeah dude
>>97884075Muchacho if you want me to take pics of any of this shit, just lmk and I will. I'm pissed at how these rules/books work these days.
>>97884159
>>97884203Thanks. I like the Night Lord I made there enough that I’m thinking of not keeping him as a unit champion.
>>97883973>>97884001>>97884075>>97883936>>97883947>Huron's update was first availble in the Maelstrom campaign book. The datasheet should be available to you in the app if you already own Codex: Chaos Space Marines. If you do not own the codex, that is what you will need.What is it listed under? I cant find it :(

If you do not have WH+ and do not want to delete your existing list you can also find the datasheet viaWarhammer Community > Downloads > Warhammer 40,000 > Faction Packs > Faction Pack: Chaos Space MarinesI hope this helps.
>>97883753What I like to do is have a small amount come out the joint seam, wipe up excess with my finger or toothpick, then smooth out any final affected exposed area with my hobby knife. I know this isn’t the best way to do it, but until you get a rhythm for how much you need per model, it’s better than nothing. Usually I don’t have any excess that ruins visible areas, but it happens from time to time.>>97883768You’ve done a stellar job with the shadows on that model, anon.
>>97884268I really appreciate you help, thank you so much. However:Sadly, the first selection only leads to Huron himself, no group
>>97884196Woah, where is that chaos head from? That’s a sick hooded helmet with skull on top!

>>97884306You are looking for the "Masters of the Maelstrom" datasheet. You can find it under "Other Datasheets" in the list builder.
>>97884315Thanks, man. It’s from The Unmade, one of the Warcry warbands.
>still no Grey Knights refreshI will continue to not give a single shit about marines I guess.
>>97883933They ARE really interesting, you probably just haven't read through one of their more recent codexes to see all the cool flavors of them. They are very much a "your dudes" type of faction, they won't interest people who want a pre written narrative for them like certain more poster boy factions.
>>97884346I feel you anon. I would also love to collect Grey Knights, but their models just aren’t up to snuff anymore
>>97883936It's in the Maelstrom Army Book or alternatively free online via the Chaos Space Marine faction pack.If you are wondering where extra rules are collected for 10th (and soon to be 11th) the answer is always the faction pack.https://assets.warhammer-community.com/eng_01-04_wh40k_faction_pack_chaos-space-marines-nunztu9xce-6m9obpn0zn.pdf
>>97884329Wow, I found it. Thank, bud... I'm blown away. I have the fucking book and I have to fucking drill into this app to find the rules and only find some of them and and then go back to the book to find the other half.... man. This sucks so much. I really, really, really appreciate your help. 4chan is a mess, but there are some decent ppl here and there, thx, bud.
>>97883941unpopular opinion: the frustration from fighting an army of tough titanic robot knights gameplay wise is acceptable for the fantasy of having armies composed of them, and appealing to the people who really like that sort of thing.
>>97884356>It's in the Maelstrom Army Book or alternatively free online via the Chaos Space Marine faction pack.I may be a fool, but from flipping around in the books, its not there. There is no "army book".
>>97884355Right? You look at the combat patrol box front, and the midget marines look so fucking goofy standing next to Crowe. You just imagine them screaming "WE ARE THE HAMMER!" and Crowe saying "You sure are little buddy."
what army(s) are you currently building anons? how far along are you?
>>97884373Really? I could have sworn one of those 3 books had it. Ah well, they are in the digital army faction pack at the least.
>>97884388Ad Mech. I have a bunch of unopened boxes on my desk because I keep staying up too late on work nights so I'm exhausted and need to spend my days off recuperating instead of getting any shit done.
>>97883462>How goes your current WIP?I haven't painted anything 40k in a hot minute since im kinda waiting on 11th to come out before I jump back in and work has had me drained.So instead im just gonna post a picture of my fat worthless cat (I love her tho).
>>97884388I have some bog standard space marines I need to get to work on as a project after a break from the hobby, but working on Night Lords for the collage is making me want to reconsider my army choice.
>>97883462> How goes your current WIP?My son was just born, so he’s finally constructed, painted, and tabletop ready
I wish it were true, and maybe Im crazy? I would love that. This is what I got.
>>97884394>>97884438
>>97883462>TQJust need to do some finishing touches on the model and paint up the base.

>>97884438>>97884440Can you show the guard pages, please?
lmao the ai generated a blood angel in the background. the prompt mustve been something like "with angel warriors flying in the background" and it slopped up some blood angel ahahaha

>>97884570No you can't, go back to your subreddit mutant
>>97884532
>wanting to know if I should subscribe to the combat patrol magazine>>97883372I like most armies. I’m not a huge fan of imperial guard, tyranids, votann, genestealer cults, or chaos demons. Necron are alright, but they seem a little samey
>>97884532>>97884579
Thoughts on chrome?
>>97884546Its sad you feel this way. The countries you likely think are better are probably worse. You probably never went to other countries to see how things were. I grew up on the border and have been outside the country (in numerous other countries) a number of times. You should thank your lucky stars you were born where you were.
>>97884579>>97884583Thanks anon!By chance what are some interesting lore tidbits from the lore parts of that book?
>>97884600
>>97884608I bought it a few hours ago, wont get to read it any time soon.
>>97884627Alright then.I hope you enjoy the reading!
>>97884633Thx lad, lmk if you wanna see anything else.
>>97884605You're actually an irredeemable retard
>>97884639Fantastic counter point.
>>97884579Mind postan’ those Eldar pages, boss man?

>>97884654you never played it
>>97884664lol I started playing Epic and got the 2nd ed start box with my brother for christmass when we were kids. I used to know the rules like the back of my hand, but that was long ago... hitting vehicles (including bikes) on the sides and having differnt results/damages take place was fun. The virus grenade did wounds depending on if models had helmets/face plates or not. Fun times. Oh and the vortex grenade... hah, fun fun times.
>>97884649How does one break free of this?I primarily like 40k/HH.
>>97884655>>97884658I wish you both the best. Do what you can to make yout community the best it can be.
>>97884684stop being a seething contrarian
>>97884684You're allowed to engage with the franchise however you like, anon. Despite what some trannies might say- GW doesn't own the models after you purchase, nor does it have any authority over the content you want to consume.

>>97884850There isn't one, thats just a mentally deficient mongoloid who's been trying to push a meme that tau are indians for the last few years
>>97884856Don't you mean another 28 to go? Or whatever the sisters meta is now
>>97884875>not using adblock/brave
>>97884854I dont recall if it was Fantasy or 40k where you randomly drew your psychic powers... I'm pretty sure that Fantasy did around 4th ed... I think 40k had 1/2/3 pts per power and you could choose a power based on the amassed points you had per your psychicers mastery points. That sounds right. Good times.
>>97884865Thanks!>>97884875We used to be a proper country>>97884880I have no idea what the meta is. I don't play. I just put paint on minis and drink the paint water after.

I really want to like crusader squads but the stupid faggot neophytes with their stupid ass bear head is giving me an autism attack. What helmets do other chapter's give their scouts/neophytes that completely covers their head. I think that the crusader helmet is too fancy for a neophyte.
>>97884854I think if psychic powers come back they should use a tarot deck
You are still going to have to paint the faces partially but just find some hooded Dark Angel heads or the half mask that can be found in some BA kits.

Are space wolves the REAL good guys of 40k?
>>97884830You're that guy with the printed maxim gun russes right? Good stuff.
>>97884900The closest to scout helmets is stuff like incursor heads: a respirator & those infrared goggles meant to act like marine helmet auto-sense.Alternatively you could use mk2 helmets.
>>97884820If you want to, go for it. They have a lot of kitbash potential with auxiliaries to fill out infantry squads. There used to be a guy who'd post his on here with converted lizardmen, demiurg, a big stupid jellyfish, and one that was just a turtle with a pulse rifle mounted on its shell. I miss that guy.

Just need to learn how to think my paints as I was told I have good brush control here before.
>>97884820I did, and i'm happy that even with the near LoS rules for 11th my planned army isn't really affected.If you just want a project to do to see if you like them maybe pic up a pathfinder or Xv8 battle suit team, or the combat patrol with the commander in it if you want a varity of tau models to try your scheme out.what is you're scheme idea anyway?

>>97884996Ynnari play more like craftworlds with some dark eldar allies than dark eldar anyway, so not really?Harlequins aren't really OP they're incredibly glass cannon and die to marines farting at them if they can't get into melee.Corsairs only have a couple of units, the basic infantry is basically just storm guardians 2.0, whilst the jetpack infantry are chaff melee jetpacks. The starfang is a scoutier, lighter vyper with assault weapons. Overall I'd say their main thing is being cheaper and more chaff than craftworld units.

I'm new to the tabletop game, and I'm wondering how hard is it to get into the game? Is the community pretty bad? Am I gonna get bullied for unpainted miniatures or 3D printed miniatures? I really love the video games and lore and have minis I just never actually played or know what the community is like at game stores. Are there pretty bad LGS goblins?
>>97885238>Am I gonna get bullied for unpainted miniatures or 3D printed miniatures?yeah by me
>>97885238Everything you read online is an exageration and under a microscope.If you have a lgs near go and see what it's like, a lot run building and painting tutorials so you could try that as well.tldr: touch grass
>>97885238Nobody gives a fuck about 3d printed minis unless they look like shit or you're trying to pass them off as originals. I give a pass on unpainted as long as I can see that you're consistently showing up week to week with a little more work being done. If your shit is still grey a year later I will bully you.
It's honestly the painting aspect that keeps me from playing. I don't really wanna fuck it up and have it look ugly.
Finally got around to painting up the little hologram table thing I made forever ago out of a juice cap, some spare bits and spackle. I think I can probably do better, so I might go back tomorrow night and try sprucing up the glow around the edges of the table but for now it's good. Next time I make one of these I'm definitely gonna add more greebles to the table itself - I kept it intentionally bland for this one to not distract from the hologram on top but it definitely needs some thick chunky cables or something to go on it.
>>97885284That's just a part of learning any new skill, it's the willingness to try and get better that's the most important aspect.
>>97885284You can always strip a model and start over again, though you should absolutely keep your first painted model as-is to remind yourself how far you've come. You're never gonna be good at a new skill when you start it, but you'll be surprised at how far you can go if you put in the time and effort. Also, it's never been easier to start painting minis than right now. There's new guides being put out pretty much daily on places like youtube to learn from.
>>97885288Pondering the board
How do I stop losing with elf armies? When I play aggressively I lose half my army turn 2 and don't get anything for it and when I play defensively I just lose the whole board and get boxed in and killed. I've played over 100 games now and I just don't understand what I am doing wrong. I just want to play an army that can win by actually killing things and not have to play space marines.
>>97885284It's not about skill, it's about learning all the little tricks and shortcuts that help you get a decent result without a lot of effort. Basecoat, ink wash, drybrush is a staple that will get you looking better than 80% of the armies out there and is piss easy to do, even in big batches.

>>97885520Why does GW absolutely hate Eldar in lore but will always be the strongest army on the table?
>>97885525>Why does GW absolutely hate Eldar in lore but will always be the strongest army on the table?BL writers seethe about playing against Eldar and reflect that in their writing. An army's gimmick being movement, positioning and specialised units turns out to be quite difficult to balance in a game about movement and positioning where generalisation is often a waste of points. Hard to balance goes both ways, though - Eldar currently have one of the lowest winrates of any army and will likely ride out the edition towards the bottom of the pack.
>>97885607I thought they were the strongest army in 10e?
>>97885614people only remember when the pendulum swings in favour of the eldar, they don't realise ot swings the other way just as often
>>97885614They have been at several points -Wraithknights at the start of the edition, Ynnari after the Codex and to a lesser but still real extent Aspect Hosts some time after that, but the nerfs were always forthcoming (Wraithknights and Ynnari were both rendered completely unplayable by theirs) and the latest set of balance changes left Eldar costed as if their units were durable without the ability to jump back into transports that justified that price, so it's a list of fragile, inefficient units.tl;dr: >>97885621
Anything you guys are hoping for in 11th?
>>97885629Lots of cool new Dark Eldar stuffStarting with at least one Detachment that isn't broken jank in some way

>>97885629Good new Black Library books that feature Eldar and Dark Eldar.
>>97885635>For James to finally go bankrupt and for all his "intellectual property" to be in the public domain.they’d sell their IP to either hasbro, disney, or amazon, and they’d do everything GW is doing but 100x worse and with no redeeming qualities.
>>97885629Make Aeldari Great Again
>>97885662I give it 30 seconds into the new edition before James makes them totally busted again. Probably by making Aspect Host a 1-point Detachment or something and letting it combine with one of the other decent Detachments they have.
>>97885662have them put israel first and job even worse than they’ve jobbed before?
>>97885525>GW absolutely hate Eldar in loreNo one but Jes loves eldar, and most writers in GW are marinefags or marine(spike)fags. They fucked Yriel in his reveal campaign only because of picrel>will always be the strongest army on the table?Not anymore, they lost agility, they lost psychic phase, and they completely fucked in 10th
>>97885652You won't buy them thoughbeit
>>97885683This is what happens when you let your codex and supplement lore for a faction be written by people that actively dislike the faction. I can't think of another faction that gets shit on like this even close to this extent. Even "good guys" Tau still get some love from their writers.

>>97883462Plagueburst crawlers, are they dog shit? I’m looking to expand my DG collection
>>97885746Currently they're just okay in certain detachments but they were very good when they were cheaper. GW currently doesn't seem to want indirect to be too good or efficient for obvious reasons.
>>97885719convert crawlers
>>97885629This >>97885646 but also regular bolters and meltaA squad of multi meltas rolling up on a basic main battle tank should not wound on 5s. And bolters should do more than just annoy your enemy for making him sit through rolling 30 dice.
You guys expect GW rules makers to be competent, or are they completely failing upwards?This is embarassing shit.>"Its just reversed!"Still fucking embarassing and show how little they care about the rules.
>>97885719There is a zero percent chance of the rhino chassis getting squatted for chaos (or sisters). It has a chance of being squatted for loyalist marines only. And I guess custards.
>>97885798I think the most thatll happen is that Gw will find ways to discourage the use of the basic rhino in any army that has its own replacement

>>97885819Many (are not) saying this
>>97885827eh, I dont like the meme of 40k getting cyber daemons so I'd imagine they'd just ride these things

>>97885840renegades are csm, use better terms
>>97885840you do not understand the faction
>>97885831A marine on a normal creature makes no sense because the creature has to be:1. As armored as the marine himself, otherwise it gets shot first and your "cavalry" is now forced to schlep towards the enemy on foot.2. At least as fast as the marine himself, otherwise the mount provides no strategic utility.3. Extremely good at combat because against the kinds of enemies marines face, a non-combat proficient mount will be basically single-use.Daemon engines check all three, thus they make sense.
>>97885847>Daemon engines check all threeso does any mutant or alien thing because we can just make them do so
>>97885847I’m gonna be real, marines on mounts are already retarded. I can tolerate scout marines on bikes, but full on marines? This isn’t fucking Star Wars, you’re a 600 pound lard ass with a bolter that weights as much as your cock would be if it wasn’t cut off. And seeing a marine man a turret is just a visual humiliation ritual when it’s on a speed flying thing. Even more on a Mario cart.
>>97883462>TQI'm getting magnets for the Stalker on friday. I've never magnetized before, wml.

>>97885883>owner tells me that defilers will be cheaper on 2nd drop by like 1/3rdI don't think this has ever happened. GW do not lower prices on a product. They occasionally repackage an item that leads to a technically lower price (former killteam boxes being sold regular units for cheaper without the killteam token tax, or 30k kits that were sold as 10 man units being reboxed as 20 man units that are technically cheaper per model). But just lowering the price is unprecedented.Far more likely that the owner is either confused or lying.

>>97886102Meh/10Not that interesting.
>>97886158The vanguard vets last week really tanks my enthusiasm and I don't care for Orks. I might skip this box after all.
>>97886183But why?>>97886186I dunno man, being a fan of something where you actively hope they never get attention feels backwards. Do you even count as a fan if you don't want enjoy how they're portrayed?
>>97886102RIP what I think was the skins' last piece of resin
>>97886182You had 10 years to buy and a made to order last august lmao what were you doing
>>97886201Aesthetics are super cool.The lore of their fall and the path system and the Webway and dark kin are all cool.Their tactically flexible play style is cool.They have neat subfactions with distinct differences that can change up the way they play a lot.Their unique technology based off of the warp and using it and souls in various ways is unique and feels like a full realization of the capabilities of the setting.
>>97886102It’s just mediocre. It’s busy for the sake of being busy, too top heavy too. The coolest detail on the model are the feet wrappings, idk I just like that. Should have been on his hands too.
>>97886076>be me 1 year ago>see a 10yo kid with his 50yo mom at the gw store>he's getting a free mini of the month (krieger) and a heckin aeldari codex>feel bad for him for getting scammed twice
>>97886102I like him. What will truly determine whether or not I buy the box is how the Land Speeder looks.
How common are Inquisition-aligned chapters? I got multiple Adeptus Arbites transfer sheets for cheap and I started to think about building a small custom chapter with the Adeptus Arbites logo serving as the chapter symbol. It looks dope as fuck and can easily serve as an IF successor chapter symbol.
>>97886201It's not backwards.An actual fan is a one who cares and isn't going to happy when a corporation keeps enshittifying what they like. And why would I enjoy what GW has done to the eldar as faction and how they are now portrayed?Why would I like this?You're not a fan if put on a fake smile despite GW doing something bad you don't like, especially to a faction you like.To "enjoy" that is pure cuck mentality.
>>97886224The inquisition has a couple of attack dog chapters
>>97886221>>97886199my favorite thing is that it'll cost 275 dollars>less content>models just coast off of 3rd edition nostaliga>jack up the cost>>97886186>Only people who actually beg for exodites are retards.exodites are cool
>>97886102It's alright. Quite generic but I guess it does the job. Which is why I won't be getting it
>>97886102Is he on a fucking 50mm? What the fuck is with the scale creepAlso looks mid
>>97886102cut the lightning and paint the brain anew and i guess it could be passing
>>97886226>And why would I enjoy what GW has done to the eldar as faction and how they are now portrayed?Because GW is the company that made the faction?This is the equivalent of liking the first book in a series, disliking the five books that followed it, then still saying you're a fan of the series.You're not an aeldari fan, you're a fan of your made up headcanon concept of the aeldari that you created bevause you hate how the actual aeldari are written and portrayed. You've gaslit yourself into thinking you like a faction when in reality you hate it.
>>97886224There's like 3-4.Grey Knights. Deathwatch. Red hunters. Sisters of Battle
>>97886102Looks tererible, but that's pretty much entirely due to a few easily fixable thing, the ork himself looks real good, and those wire bits once cut off will be real useful elsewhere.
Better or worse?
>>97886102Gonna agree with the general consensus of "eh". It's completely inoffensive, my main gripe is how the power lines are all arrayed so perfectly but by the looks of it, if they aren't already separate components on the sprue it will be dead easy to clip them and turn them so they are splayed out more erratically. Well, that and how overdone the tactical rocks are.
>>97886245Would look good as a mini-weirboy, reminiscent of the old scaling of psykers, mirroring the marines having 3 tiers of librarians
>>97886224As common as you want them to be. >Deathwatch >Grey Knights >Red Hunters >Exorcists maybe (Know enough about Daemons to roll with the Ordo Malleus?)
>>97886243>but le company made le thingI don't fucking care GW made it, what they've made since is dogshit. Why would I enjoy dogshit?This is the most "just consoom product and get excited for new product" cuck response there is.Kill yourself, cuck.
>>97886255I think weirdboys should be normal ork sized
>>97886246anyone that likes artel w shit is genuinely retarded
>>97886243Gw is not the people that made 40K anymore. They are the people that own the product made by the people that made 40K.
>>97886243>company made the factionNta but GW did jack shit, it was people working for them. PAST. TENSE.
>>97886240There's absolutely zero justification for it lmaoEven with the extremely wide stance he would still fit on a 40mm if you removed the fucking retarded tactical rock
>>97886102lol they fucked up his hands, gj GW. Another Premium Jewel of Wonder.
>>97886234>$275Holy shit really? Guess I’ll just buy the marine half, I don’t particularly care about orks
>>97886256>Exorcists maybe Considering the Inquisition has sealed their creation and part of their initiation is daemonic possession and exorcism under the Inquisition's watch, it seem pretty evident they're associated with the Inquisition.
>>97886261What if basic weirdboyz were Ork sized, but different subtypes of weirdboyz had different sizes?
>>97886245Agreed, I'm cutting the lighting and a couple cables and I think he'll be a lot better
>>97886258I'm not telling you to consume itI'm telling you that if GW writes the aeldari as perpetual failures and losers, then liking them requires liking that writing for them. If you don't like it, then you don't like them as a faction, you like your headcanon and you're coping about how much you actually despise the faction.>>97886264>>97886265And when was the last time GW treated aeldari as anything more than losers and jobbers?
>>97886246It’s overdetailed in a worse way somehow
>>97886272Different types of weirdboy do not really need to exist mechanically
>>97886261Nob-sized is fineIf their powers give them an edge if any kind in the battlefield, then they should naturally be expected to survive and grow after all
I havent played 40k since 4th edition and I'm getting back into it. My local store only plays 1000 point games. Any tips for a fun Adeptus Sororitas list for this?This is what I've come up with so far: https://www.newrecruit.eu/app/list/vxRoYA friend gave me a ton of models so here's what I've got available to work with (and still build)Morvenn Vahl,4x Battle Sisters Squad boxes,2x Penitent ENgines boxes2x Repentia Squads1x Sororitas Rhino,1x Sister Dogmata2x Canoness,1x Novitiates Kill team1x new Combat patrol (the arco flagellants, sacresants, canoness and sisters are assembled to the combat patrol wargear)With the list I built there I'd only need to get Celestine. I figure with no supporting Paragon warsuits there's no reason to run the Morvenn Vahl. Celestine is better solo but I dont have any Sera/Zephyrim to run with her so still not that great but she's much more fun than just a random canoness being warlord. I could drop her and take another Canoness and a battle sisters squad I suppose. Any thoughts or can someone help me whip something up with these models that'll be fun for a new player?
>>97886278Do you only like your faction because GW gives you a reach around and strokes your cock lovingly while they show you new models for you to buy from them?
>>97886243>You can't be a fan of Dragon Age or Mass Effect if you don't like Veilguard and Andromeda>You can't be a fan Fallout if you don't like 76 and the TV series>You can't be a fan of Lord of the Rings if you don't like Rings of PowerHave you considered putting your head under the wheel of a tractor?
>>97886263What's wrong with artel w shit?
>>97886283What kind of retarded logic is that. 99% of 40k would not exist.
>>97886286they brawl almost never compared to other orks at camp and they kill themselves accidentally at an incredible rate. They should be weird little scrawny freaks if anything.
These data sheets are starting to get a little bit ridiculous.
>>97886298Presumably the ones we're controlling on the table are the notably capable ones
>>97886246I’ll stick with mezgike thanks
>>97886244God I miss FW's colour plates. Inject that power armour autism straight into my veins. Complete with a little blurb saying the name of the pictured dude, his exact position in the organization and where he was sighted and or/died. Peak 40k.
>>97886304The original idea of them as living weapons that had to be tard rangled sovl mogs warboss/nob (magic) so hard it's unreal.
>>97886299>This model may be attached to Cadians, Kriegs, CatachansGod I hope this stupid fucking retarded shit gets undone for the next Codex, it pisses me off so much
Reposting my game from Saturday that was inexplicably removed. Played Wolves into Ultras and lost because I stupidly did not use the Gladius detachment and once again my placements were poor and I went second again. I am going first next game for sure.
>>97886299Guard needed a Primarch because if you don’t have one you’re an NPC faction
>>97886326>inexplicably>primaris vs primaris slop
>>97886299>1 storm bolter>1 laspistol>1 bale eye (digilaser)>1 power klaw>1 power swordFukin Hoarder
>>97886332Primaris funds your hobby
>>97886308The historical nerds have gone away a long time ago
>>97886278>uhm if you like the faction you MUST like it if GW treats it like shitNo, I don't.Again with more cuck responses.Also you're 100% saying I must consume product if I want to be a "real fan", because in your own words if I don't like GW writing eldar losers then I'm not a "real fan"This shit is the same telling a Zelda fan that they are not a "real fan" because they don't like BotW or TotK, despite this person having basically every other game from franchise.You're retarded.
>>97886344be a good paypig and continue doing so
>>97886308I never liked covering shit in grime and dust
>>97886296Slavs have a tendacy to greeble spam when sculptingI like his notCain and notValhallans models but that's it It's hard to fuck up historically inspired guard when you have to make them look like the real life soldiers after all.
>>97886345I'm painfully aware. I'm currently trying to make my own FW style IA book for my dudes but with 3D renders because I can't draw that well. I already make my own FW resin upgrades. Pays to be a 3D artist in this hobby.>>97886357What has that to do with my post.
>>97886357Its easy and looks good and sells the scale.
>>97886344If you're gonna play marines vs marines at least have the decency to play 30k.
>>97886329That's meant to be Lord Solar, though Lord Solar Proxies are so common that evidently he didn't stick.
>>97886345I specifically chose Raptors because I like spec ops in general and MACV-SOG in particular. I wish we got more like IA era 40k than gay ass slop like >oooh space wolf woo-woo magic brought Yarrick back
>>97886299>>97886340How does he use the laspistol or sword? Does he drop the storm bolter on the ground? Does he actually sling it first? Imagine trying to swing a sword with a gun that size slung at your side
>>97886344fuck off back to r*ddit, decalnigger
>>97886326That is a very unpleasent looking table despite being fully painted. I think the matt is really raping any potential appeal to death.
>>97886344I'd rather it go bankrupt
>>97886375The popularity of solar proxying gives me some hope for this special character hellworld we live in.
>>97886292No, that would be stupid, but I'm also not going to pretend I'm still a fan if I don't like how GW would write my faction.>>97886294Your argument fails because the modern writing for aeldari has remained the same for most of 40k's history. They've never been important, they've never been winners, and they've never done anyrhing significant besides help the Imperium occassionally.To make an equivalent to your argument, you would have read the first half of The Fellowship of the Ring, disliked the rest of Middle Earth, then made up a headcanon version which you then use to claim you are a fan of LotR.You're going through obscene mental gymnastics to claim you're a fan of a faction you're not really a fan of.
>>97886366Eww no >>97886380Its a dope mat and the table looks sublime but you're entitled to your dogwater opinion
>>97886299why did they bother giving him the las pistol lol
>>97886380t. guy with no ability to imagine and feel genuine wonder and joyshow us your cool, hyper realistic ultra detailed and modeled gaming spaces
>>97886364not really, it gets old. Mudcore is what killed fantasy
>https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/kdczha3h/we-take-on-the-legio-custodes-painting-challenge/Why would they post this? These are all fucking terrible.
>>97886392So he can shoot in melee
>>97886359>I'm currently trying to make my own FW style IA book for my dudes but with 3D renders because I can't draw that well.Based>>97886378If the storm bolter had a sling it'd make sense.Also the storm bolter & pistol used to be master-crafted.Terminators with power fists are already goofy but you can imagine reloading with these huge glove hands. A power klaw? Not so much.>>97886376I like both, I want my fantasy vietnam seals with china lakes charging with ogryns into space orcs while the space barbarians drop in from the sky, all of that played like a napoleonic era game with magic wind shenanigans.
>>97883462QUICKPLAGUEBURST CRAWLER OR A PREDATOR FOR DEATH GUARD
>>97886329>yarrick "dies">"how could they kill yarrick off hes too important">Yarrick comes back and has rules befitting his status>"hes the guard primarch"Glad GW doesn't listen to you
>>97886411Wouldn't need to if they gave storm bolters the pistol keyword like god intended.
>>97886391>>97886407>he's samefagging alreadyguess it was stupid to expect the peace to last
>>97886410>Mold lines don't matter GW confirms
>>97886425Now that I've seen golden demons with undrilled barrels I'm sure all rules are out the window
>>97886410"Please buy our models, anyone can paint them!"I'm probably too autistic for marketing to work on me, because all I see are mediocre paintjobs from shills who got that shit for FREE and still half-assed it on committee designed bland overpriced models. These being custodes does not help.
>>97886421The second one wasn't me, more than one person can disagree with your opinion narcissistbro
My collage project has shown me how fun freehanding isI need one more major heraldry element, right now I have demonic murals, red/white checkers, and the house heraldry (toads), but that leaves me one major part of the pattern undecided. it needs to be fairly light and less illustrative for the compoition to look nice. should I go with 1.chaos stars on a beige field2.orange firey chaos like in that blanche painting of the ship coming out of the warp3.something else
>>97886417Predators are playable in other chaos armies
>>97886417Don't make hasty decisions, if you don't know for sure then you shouldn't buy it.
>>97886429hot take but golden demons should be about painting not modeling. There can be a separate award for conversion work
>>97886436you did a really nice job with that shoulder piece, well done.
>>97886410Showcasing a range of good, midrange and shit paintjobs is one of GW's marketing strengths, honestly. If you go looking for painted examples of small games, you'll likely find one or two professional tier paintjobs and maybe one slopjob if you're lucky so it's hard to be inspired if you're not a competition winning painter.
