Pour one out for him.
Feel free to post your drilled and un-drilled barrels now faggots.
>>97886876Moar like Shit Eaters edition amirite?
>>97886817>What assets/templates etc. are you using anon?For the book or for the renders? Book I have nothing atm but I've used Ilovepdf to get the backgrounds pics of GW books before so I'll try to see if any of my IA pdfs works. For the renders I'm just modelling them from scratch using the new 30k colour plates as reference for proportions.>I'm still looking for a proper grainy filter for the model photos.Photopainting is like black magic to me I wish I knew how to do it. For now I'm just starting with the colour plates and the order of battle autism. Some inked pencil sketch here and there if I like how my shit drawing skills look like.
>>97886893they won't
How are your collage entries coming along, anons? Reposting mine from last night, I’m getting a late start on it but happy so far.
>>97886899I know.
I like orks :D
>>97886876>TQGenerally when the homebrew is by someone who actually has painted models accompanying the homebrew it makes the homebrew feel more genuine and fun to skim over. I don't know why. Maybe it is just me.>Ian Watson passed awayI hope this is misinformation, but to be fair most of the original lads are passing away or close to it now.He did good for 40k. They all did.Was or are there any big shots at GW that genuinely did good for Warhammer 40k as a whole?Does Alan Bligh count?
>>97886902still waiting for the stuff to arrive, hopefully it will get here this week so I can start working on it on saturday
>>97886902>battle-brother of the Mandela Catalogue chapter taken out by his alternate
>>97886909
>>97886914i prefer gitz
>>97886914I am ambivalent about orks :|
>>97886902what’s the collage this month? little lelith hesperax proxy I’m working on, but I need a different head
>>97886893uhhhh uhhhh POST YOURS FIRST
>>97886939Crucible of champions character. Optionally dead space wolf.
>>97886876>TQConsistency in their write up, models built and painted to match, and the balls to actually have their guys lose in ways that have lasting impacts.
>>97886902Damn, makes me wanna get a box of those warcry guys but I think they're oop.
>>97886939Wolves being dunked on and/or crucible character. Idk if I’ll get around to a crucible character for mine to be honest.
>>97886939space wolves getting destroyed or crucible character from the maelstrom book though you can have both if you like. you could paint that dude in space wolves colors and you should be good.>>97886948FALSE space wolves getting destroyed got first place and crucible character was added in as a secondary option to allow people who don’t own space marines or don’t want to participate in mocking someone to post their submissions.
>>97886924I’m glad everyone was saved from seeing that. usually this thread is covered in puke everytime it happens.
>>97886957Shit I was planning on dedicating the rest of this month to my defiler, would having a limb impaling a space wolf terminator be enough to submit it to the collage? I think I have a spare one on sprue from an old project
Played a game of 5th edition on Saturday.We were using the Cities of Death supplement, if urban warfare is your jam I wholeheartedly recommend playing this.While I did enjoy the game, so much bullshit happened during it, holy shit.. I'll avoid spamming the thread since I'm not good at writing these things, so it's just the highlights.As per the scenario we chose, each of us had to select a building/ruin in opposite quadrands of the map that would act as out FOBs, we had to capture the opponent's base to win the scenario. We both picked 3 stratagem cards(very flavourful, it's a fun read). One of the stratagems I picked allowed me to place several tank traps on the map to make passage impossible for vehicles(I later learned that it made the game really difficult for my friend)
>tq tasteful color scheme non-retarded gimmick (although plenty of gw stuff fails at that) A lack of over importance or need to be unique.
>>97886973I'm just putting a couple space wolf helmets on the knight I'm painting personally.
Guys, there was a thing in the news recently about some literature surveying team finding some of Shakespeare's long lost works. It was so long that they needed 5 people to transport it.It turned out they just read an 11th edition datasheet ability section.
>>97886973I would say so. One anon is doing orks bartering for a dead wolf’s gear. It’s pretty open for interpretation.
Bros I can't decide if I want to start an Eldar army or an Ork army...
>>97886992I mean they’re both gay so either way you’re set
Do you guys think termies will be buffed in 11th? I have my tactical termie squad and termie chaplain being useless for the longest time now.
>>97886897Thanks for responding!I meant for the book. Sorry if I was too vague.I have been looking for an image editor like Photoshop (or I might stop being scared of viruses and just pirate it) to hopefully be able to create all filters and templates within the software like the beige "parchment" background colours of the image you used in your post.Then hopefully after that be able to take "on the ground angled" photos of miniatures and then photoshop them to look cinematic. A grainy filter is meant to cover up amateur goofs on my part. Not to say that the IA model photos were bad. There is a special kind of ingredient intertwined with talent those ForgeWorld graphics designers had that I lack and I hope it leaks somehow. Stuff looks deceptively simple to be honest.But sometimes loads of photo effects can work without a filter too.Pic related.Pic related sauce: https://www.deviantart.com/arkurion/art/Purge-them-with-fire-Death-Korps-Heavy-Flamer-780072231Good luck on your project anon!
>Every model so far has ranged from OK to utter dogshit
>>97886870>>97886890>decide to take a look at my model before posting>see clear coffee staining on a bunch of detailsshieeet. still, I’m a man of my word, and eagerly await your models, and an answer to my question that I will rephrase. how many model posters here have coffeestained slop? the only one I can think of are MY models.
>Trolling outside of /b/.
>>97886999you're ban evading you fucking cretin, take the hint already
>>97886973for sure, as long as its a space wolf getting dunked on in some way.
>>97886999Stop ban evading
>>97887028Im not evading they can even check, not a single device I have is banned right now. I was not even here most of the weekend because I was playing games.
>>97887012Such as?
>>97886999man, it was such a peaceful weekened without you here. isn’t it crazy, some people aren’t noticed when they’re gone, but with you in particular everyone breathes a sigh of relief?
>>97886974>Predator and Razorback spend 3 turns shooting eachother without anything happening, both survive until the end of the game>Scouts move in the open to run to the next set of ruin to place a homer beacon for the Terminators to drop in and maul the Rhino carrying BA veterans and the Baal Predator next to it, roll a 2 and get stuck in an open field>they place the beacon and brace for the hell that's to come>Tiberius, scout sargeant that survived my previous game against the same opponent, is the last person standing after Baal Predator opens fire, he will survive the game and has earned himself a purity seal as a reward
>>97886996decalfag...
>>97886999Fuck off forever.
>>97887032>I was playing games[X]
>>97887015I think my boys mog yours but I still like yours and love your positive energy here, didn't know it was you.
>>97887042only after the collage is posed, I want him to see it
>>97886992orks are getting a massive wave and models for cheap, so it would be smarter to go with them.
>>97887058try not to respond to posters like that, they are just trying to troll and derail.
>>97886992if you're a newer painter orks are much for forgiving.
>>97887062Non sequitur
I feel like the new weirdboy is missing something. I kinda want to carve an exposed brain into his head
Any kits that have lever-action rifles?
The new weirdboy is beautiful. I love the wires floating all around him signalling warp energy being present instead of a ton of lightning bolts everywhere, and the 1 lightning bolt being between his head and staff. I don't mind the smaller arms here because weirdboys are, well, weird. Not typical Orks where they'd be extremely buff and huge due to swinging their choppas around all day. This git works out at the library.Can't wait to paint one of these guys. I can already see how I'll apply my scheme.
>>97887073I think he looks pretty schweet personally, don't know what last threads hate fest over it was.
>>97887039>on the oposide side of the board, Master of the Forge accompanied by Sternguards, an Assault Cannon Razorback and squad of snipers will face off against a 10 man blob of 10 assualt marines, Jump Chaplain with Chapter Honor Guard>Razorback moves in to shoot the side of the Vindicator with a Hunter Killer Missile, ofcourse it misses>under combined Sternguard and Sniper fire, followed by melee, the assault marines are killed off>Honor Guard shrug off assault cannon fire from the Venerable Dreadnought and swoop down to eventually kill everyone on this side of the board except for the Razorback which goes on to destroy the Vindicator's main weapon. They now have a clear path towards my base.
>>97887081>>97887039Fantastic looking game anon, very based of you.
>>97887073People complains over nothing this model looks awesome.
>>97887011I wish that dude was still active so I could ask how they made all those edits. I haven't seen a proper guide or tutorial anywhere. It's hard to search when you don't know how the technique is called.
>>97887073I like him. I have marines and orks so this box is pretty much a no-brainer, but probably late into the edition when I can snag a copy for cheap at the LGS. They still have copies of Leviathan for $100 lol
>>97887073The model is great, the base sucks.
>>97886876why does he eat the poo poo
>>97887039Holy kino
>>97887075admech raiders
>>97886992>>97887060>eldar starters right nowCorsairs>ork startersDa starter boxBut the starter box, you can either buy the orks on ebay for 100 bucks and that's 840 points or ssell the space marine half of the box to your friend/split it with them, while the Corsairs are just 200 bucks for 400 point sof models.
>>97887073I love the model except for the lightning effect. It's too thick. Might try to use some thin wires instead.
>>97886902kek did you buy a scout from the kill team just ot kill him off. Is that a Bleak Brotherhood CSM?
>>97886876>tqLore that isn't picrel.Something to set it apart from official successor chapters besides "being cooler".Not having more art than minis (yes you know who I'm talking about)>>97886915>I hope this is misinformationWeird thing to assume.>Was or are there any big shots at GW that genuinely did good for Warhammer 40k as a whole?Wouldn't every big name in the studio in the Good Old Days count? Are there any villains of the story besides Kirby or faceless execs?I agree Alan Bligh was one of the best though.
>>97887107Lol no, that guys from the blood claws kit. Traded a bit of ammo to a buddy who has space wolves for a few for this exact purpose. And Bleak Bros would be cool, but I was planning on going with Night Lords. I have a bat helm and a spear for the next guy.
>>97887081>meanwhile, while terminators jump in, the action in the middle develops>due to bad positioning I end up with a blob of bikes and infantry, perfect for the Vindicator to splash, shot scatters on two unfortunate bikes which end up blowing upTerminators appear on the board and with lucky shots from the assault cannon, end up wrecking the Rhino carrying the vets, along with a Librarian(represented by Mephiston) and Corbulo>Chapter Master blasts vets with a combi-flamer and ends up scoring a couple kills>shrug off every shot from the Baal Predator, ignore it and move towards the enemy base while the veterans run off due to some lucky rolls towards my bikes>infantry in the middle takes positions in the craters and will end up facing Death Company marines inside the Razorback>>97887085>>97887098Thank you!
>>97887101Ooh thanks
>>97887105The lightning is cool but a Stormcast with overcooked NMM is so bleak.
FHe is jerking off squats against their will in the Webway now
>>97887141F
Final Grotesque finished. Painting hand warmed up. Time for the rest of the army.I put the chain cuffs on him for the Talos chain flails but realized I didn’t give him a chain weapon. So I slapped these up his ass. Don’t have a name for them so I’m going with “ass grapples” unless anyone has a better one.
>>97887135God I miss templates.
>>97887135Fwoosh.Thanks for the batrep. I don't know how you could be afraid of spamming when you're one of the handful of non-nogames here.
>>97887090>I wish that dude was still active so I could ask how they made all those edits. I haven't seen a proper guide or tutorial anywhere.>https://www.deviantart.com/arkurion/journal/New-Tutorial-and-Background-Song-349184780I think the videos are down or I am retarded with Youtube links.>It's hard to search when you don't know how the technique is called.Yeah that's one of my problems with this whole thing. I know Mantic hired a guy to make some visuals for their models of their WarPath models. He called them "paintovers" but it feels like that is not the industry standard name.
>>97887161https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dY4D4iCkvroVideo works but it's a painting tutorial, nothing about the photo editing.
Five more chosen to my IW done.
>>97887161>He called them "paintovers" but it feels like that is not the industry standard name.Wasn't this kind of thing also done a lot in the toy industry in the 00s? When digital editing was available but they couldn't just do the whole thing in CGI.The Forge World way of doing it as a really crunchy pseudo-photograph is rather unique though.
>>97887146Can't wait for modern 40kids to try and make sense of IW's work when the news gets out. Man was too horny for this world. 10/10, would anally brand again
>>97887165Thank you anon.I feel really dumb now.
>>97887119damn. He has a very "warp ghost" look there though, rather than simply skinning people he looks undead. But I suppose the painscheme is difficult.
>>97887170The other five I made before
>>97887141>He is jerking off squats against their will in the Webway now
>>97887172GW keeps doing it, every single 10th edition 40k box has that, but as you say, in the common toy style instead of the pseudo historic style FW used.
>>97886996warhammer is expensive in general, but neither army is too bad. elves are pretty elite so you’ll need fewer models but orks are cheaper per model. Orks are primarily a fighting army with some shooty elements while eldar are a primarily a shooty army with some melee elements. Elves aren’t super hard to paint because they’re mostly monocolored body suits with some little greebles and you’re painting far fewer of them so you’ll have a painted army quicker than Orks. Elves ARE a bitch to build, it’s going to take more time to build a model versus the mostly ball and socket orks. Elves are generally a more complicated army to play and much less beginner friendly. Orks are have some naunce too, with learning how to set up your GO turn and when to initiate your GO turn. Elves have feels bad games. sometimes you stomp someone with cheese and sometimes you get tabled in two turns. Ive always enjoyed the games I play against Orks and Ork players. There’s a little more bullshit factor with elves.
>>97887135Overall, the fight in the middle ends up not being too interesting, the gist of it is, Tacticals get rekt by DC, run off towards the side of the board, and hold further back where they eventually end up killed by the vets that have been coming towards them.>Tactical squad in my FOB provides covering fire, which kills two more>embedded lascannon and plasma gun roll 1s to hit two turns in a row>DC run up to my Venerable Dreadnought and leave it a crippled metal nugget without arms and legs, after which they run off towards my base screaming something about Horus, leaving my dreadnought very confusedThis is the point where some serious BS starts to happen>>97887153One of the many changes that turn me off from modern editions>>97887159You never know when someone will sperg out
>>97887177Yeah, freehanding fire would be a cool challenge, but not now that I’m starting so late.
>>97887150>Ass chainsJerk off before converting
>>97887184I feel like the hobby aspect of the Orks should be mentioned, there's a lot more freedom and creativity, with Orks you're painting a lot of rusty scrap and random decorations and you can cobble together anything. Other than WYSIWYG armaments the only rule to building or painting them is "Be green. Green iz betta".Eldar are a bitch to build, very formulaic, and for a good paint job your options are airbrush, eavy metal, or vintage style glaze blending.
>>97886999The one thing I don't understand is, what is wrong about the decals on your stuff? I mean, you are an insufferable cunt but which of the decals you use are not lore-compliant?
>tfw spent the whole Sunday priming outdoors It's officially spring my niggers
>>97887206technically nothing but model caked in decals more than whatever premium gundam bullshit "realistic" variant just looks bad
>>97887200I did primarily paint my eldar with an airbrush, but I experimented with other techniques. these warp spiders are black templar contrast paint body suits and space wolves gray guns on a zenithal highlight, and I think they turned out well. I’m currently playing around with doing volumetric highlights with a beauty blender and it seems nice enough
my only complaint about the new weirdboy is no exposed brainthat's their defining feature man
>>97887192The walls are starting to close in>Honor Guard finished wiping my flank and position themselves above the Predator, ready to pounce, >DC and Vets book it towards my base>Land Speeder Deep Strikes behind the Vindicators>ofcourse it rolls a 1 to hit with the Multi Melta, Assault Cannon does nothing afterwards it gets that weapon shot off immidietely by the Furioso>the Speeder later will repay it in kind by shooting one of it's arm off with the multi melta next turn>my Chapter Master Terminator deathstar moves in the position to storm opponent's base
Two more Word Bearers done for the pile.
>tfw so bad at painting 'Evy Metal my friends believe I've developed my own painting style No, I won't post models
>>97887222Checked. Yeah they look aight. Ultimately it's apples to oranges, painting Eldar are about nailing the fundamentals while Orks are about going nuts with gubbins.
>>97887233I think that's not the correct image anon
>>97887175>would anally brand againQRD?
>>97887206It isn’t impossible, but its pretty unlikely that 88 and thunderbolts would both be passed down the line to space wolves, especially when a lot of 21st century people with nazis on the brain don’t know what those symbols are. this would arguably be justifiable if it was a successor chapter based in some weird star trek nazi planet, but they’re explicitly space wolves from fenris, so it doesn’t really make sense.
Craftworld Eldar posting some of my work. >>97886992airbrushing is a massive accelerant for elves but I generally use it for the basecoat and that’s about it.
>>97887182>every single 10th edition 40k box has thatReally? I haven't seen any somehow.I haven't seen it with the grainy affects.It kind of lives in the current Horus Heresy stuff.
>>97887073the big tech collar is just random bullshit and its devoid of anything elseits not as thoughtful as the little shaman trinkets the old one hadalso lack of grot is killer
Nobody's gonna mention that Tau Firewarrior is gonna be available on steam?
>>97887263Very nice, I like the color scheme and the contrast of the red sword.
>>97887175Remember the fart chute? There was absolutely no need for that
>>97887232>Honour Guard gets shot off with the combine efforts of the Tactical Squad and Predator, leaving the enemy chaplain left alive with one wound>almost slips and dies after jumping into a puddle, but rolls a 2, he will end up tanking shots from the Predator for two turns and kill 3 tacticals alone by himself in my base>DC finally makes it there too, kill 5 more, afterwards the rest breaks and runs away, but they're still in the base physically>Furioso redirects his anger towards my Chapter Master, it ends up destroying two terminators before it finally ears it's rest for good>Razorback doesn't manage to wound a single marine while all this is happening lol
>>97887256It's just skub, it's not even done cleverly like painting them feldgrau or something.>>97887263>tau in the backgroundI like that paint job, vivid.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>97887273You want us to get excited over that piece of shit?
>>97887213my melanin enriched compatriotthat was me all of saturday
>>97887295I'm sure modders will fix it
>>97887273>check developer for the port>kuju entertainment >experience is nothing but shovelware 100% going to be a literal unplayable bugfest.
>These video games may not accurately reflect current depictions, lore, or presentation within the current Warhammer universes and settingsLmao
>>97887316This is a major selling point
>>97887316Wow they're insecure to feel the need to stick that on old games
>>97887316yes anon most of secondary media is not and never was canon
Superior Weirdboy coming through
>>97887279Moment of the game timeEverything looked winnable up until this point.Deathstar in position, more or less safe to charge in. HOWEVER, a small voice in the back of my head wanted me to try out an orbital bombardment. >screw it, why not? I don't get the chance to use it very often.>declare Orbital Bombardment, the template catches the entire squad occupying the ruin>perfect>time to rollMoments later:>there is a giant crater left in the exact spot my Chapter Master and his posse used to stand because the template scattered 10 inches directly on top of them, also catching the Land Speeder>20% of the points value of my army wiped by my retarded Chapter Master>nobody able to capture the enemy base left on that side of the boardSurely, I can at least manage a draw, right?
>>97887316Saying this just because those games don't have primaris is a new kind of sad.
>>97887316Didn't they say the same about the reprint of IWs magnum opus?
>>97887330just like black library novels, right
>>97887331Ooga the booga my nigga
>>97887333Really enjoying this. Current rules can't even begin to approach this level of cinematic tomfoolery.
>>97887274
So are Eldar currently the worst army in 10e?
>>97887331>>97887346
>>97887333lmao absolutely Based
>>97887349Your Imperial Agents, sir?
>>97887333Spoiler, it was not a draw.Pictured, the heroic last stand of the last brave marine defending the base.Game ended with the last vestiges of the Veteran, Death Company and Honour Guard squads closing in on him. I condeded afterwards. Overall, it was a really enjoyable experience, very swingy, cinematic and it could honestly go either way.>>97887342>>97887358I'm not even mad about the bombardment backfiring, my jaw was hurting real bad from the laughter.
>>97887370Got some fluff shots I can share too.Next time, I think we're gonna play Planetstrike
>>97887370Nice to see a cool game anon. You're making me wanna play real bad.
>>97887390>>97887391Thank you, and yes, you should play.I love playing midhammer especially, this is my nostalgia period.
>>97887391>Red scorpionsNta but GW can't give numk4 & numk5 soon enoughI guess if someone wants to go full oldmarine the mk4 squad is still available
>>97887349we’re more of a mid-tier army with a very low skill floor. It’s a hard army to play that is a little overcosted, it’s probably one of the worst to *start* playing with as a beginner right now, but definitely not the worst performing army.
>>97887281to be fair, feldgrau would likely blend in too heavily with the rest of the blueish grey model or be really ugly against the yellow. likely a good way to be clever with it (and increase deniability) would be to have them understand 88 is a sacred symbol, but believe that all repeating double digits are also sacred so the models are all covered in 44, 66, 99, ect. which they have different meanings for, but 88 is the most holy symbol and is the symbol for space wolf supremacy, and that supremacy is as well done through twin lightning bolts which is also a repeating symbol.
>>97887284you better be right Ive been waiting since you started posting this
>>97887407I'm personally waiting for them because I want my army to use only the armour marks with chest cables. I have a bunch of mk6 already but I want mixed squads so I'm holding off with the basics.
>>97887405
>>97887430Last one, Tiberius somehow has survived this mess.
>>97887427They better not fuck it up
Show me your best ork kitbashes.

>>97887483Nice Baharroth, anon.
>>97887370Beautiful shot
>Used that rotating spray stick from Citadel>Can't tell if everything caught on or not
>>97887576You didn't answer his question
Slickade en snygg kth-brud i röven en gång. Mbv hennes incelkursare låg hemma på pojkrummen och runkade åt henne när min tunga var deep in her äzz
You are now reminded that GW tried to make Veteran Intercessors a thing to fill the awkward gaps in their units range after legending shit randomly.
>>97887596It doesn't allow for you to put "horus heresy" and copyright information on your tanks you retarded faggot
>>97887263Estonia feathers
>>97887605>"horus heresy" and copyright information on your tanksDangerously based. You made me hate the Decal-sama for no reason. I was not familiar with his game.
>>97887605KWAB
>>97887445There's pics of the redesign already. It's pretty much identical. We also know how the new mk5 is gonna look like through the apothecary. I'm not worried.
>>97887525Thanks, it still needs layering/highlights/gemstones/basing doing. And I want to do a blend on the sword.Feels nice going all in on a centre piece, he's my first phoenix lord
>>97887636outdated image, they're going to look like the rapier squads
>>97887641You do realise those images came out after rapier squads, right?
>>97887636>mk4 is the only good HH armor and didn't get molested by GW unlike mk2 and mk3Mk4 stays winning. Can't improve upon perfection. Fitting since mk4 was one of the superior armors even in fluff.
>>97887644yeah and they're not new designs unlike the cata images
blessed jannies

>>97887641No? Whatever makes you think that lmao.
>>97887636>redesign every mark>except oneI wouldn't put it past GW to go back on a plan of theirs.I think it's more likely to be a photomontage, the same way people have been parading the mk5 in that same book that's clearly based on the old FW mk5 rather than the updated nulook.But again, FW are that kind of retarded, so will have to wait and see.The chest cables look too "midhammer" and close to picrel. I'm just an autist, what do I know.

>>97887641>outdated image, they're going to look like the rapier squads>look it up>it's this dogshitGod fuck, what the hell were they thinking? I get it's called the raper squad, but it doesn't mean you rape the armor design.I hope to god they don't turn mk4 into this dogshit.
>>97887641Nigger the rapier squads are wearing imperial patternt. autismus
>>97887646
>>97887664It's not mk4. The book even says it's specialist techmarine armour. Which is just a fluff way to reintroduce the protobeakie design.
>>97887466>Death Guard pickelhaube helmI like that helmet.I do like the NuMK3 power armor helmet.And the previous Mk3 power armor helmet.I also like the power pack with 4 exhaust "pipes." What does this say about me?

>>97887664>what were they thinking"We don't want to make specific crew for each marks">But why not make it an upgrade?"Because we're retarded and made HH marines into packs of 5, so unless we're gonna sell a big box of 5 rapiers we're not doing it">but what about the jetbikes having separate pilots?"Different poses anyway, so can warrant it"Don't overthink it, it's just GW being half retarded and half out of touch.Reminder that GW wants you to buy rapier squads and then convert them into a unit, meaning they want you to buy 5 rapiers just to use the dudes (+ extra bits, which means buying more kits)

>>97887680>pakfagThat guy has been gone for years.Also there's like 99% of likelyhood that it was Edge, since the original PAKistani posted using exact same type of iPhone filenames as edge when PAK posting originally started.
>>97887697No they don't. Nu mk4 are small rectangular boxes following each other, the mk4 that was posted is a thin belt with long "pills" spaced.You're supposed to learn shapes in kindergarten, literal retard.
>>97887196To be fair, grotesques are a Deldar abomination created by the haemonculi and rely on pain inducing drugs and other mechanics to fuel their combat effectiveness. Slaaneshy pain/pleasure tools are commonplace so ass chains isn’t exactly farfetched.
>>97887702That's just his damaged armour.
>>97887705>using exact same type of iPhone filenamesthis is real schizophrenia at work
>>97887712is indomitus pattern terminator armor supposed to be mark V adjacent
>>97887664Rapier crews look to be updates of the LE02 marine. On pg. 13 of Journal Tactica: The Istavaan V Dropsite Massacre the suit's showcased with MkVI helmet and pads.

>>97887712nta but I think that was just something they did for Haar. >why not square?Strange choice and indeed as anon said looks meh. Maybe they were supposed to be spikes that were cut down, I have no clue.
>>97887720Mk5 helmets are said to be from an offshoot of the terminator project. Picrel (second paragraph)
>>97887713Not really.The PAKfag was also the most active and actively throoding when Edge was also the throoder who was spamming Slaanesh and Blood angel threads retardedly early. It's logical reasoning to point all 3 things being the work of the same person, because it explains the small details, but also explains the behavioral patterns.
>>97887690>"We don't want to make specific crew for each marks"Yet they put tank crews in MkII and various other vehicles, like jetbikes, in MkVI.
>>97887724>>97887736>the most common mobile file format is surely an indicator of samefaggotry
>>97887721
>>97887737I know, right? GW is strange and retarded.Take the mk2 crewman; his helmet is actually slightly different from the mk2 tacticals/assault, having a smooth roung faceplate rather than the angular final release. It also lacks rivets on the top of the helmet.
>HH discussionI gotta ask now.Are Inductii recruitment methods still canonically used in current 40k era?

>>97887763
>>97887755>thing, but cute girlsGay (somehow)>>97887760>HH discussionArmor marks actually, but mk1 to 7 happened before the end of the heresy.>inductiiYes and no.Yes in that /yourdudes/ can recruit that way.Kinda Yes in that 40k indoctrination includes a lot of hypnosis & adjacent that started during the heresy to speed up the process.No in that it's not the same (and each legion did things differently)
>>97886915>>97887111RIP to a real one. For all the shitting and pissing the 40k community did, I don’t remotely think Inquisitor was the worst novel in the setting ever made. Not even close. And Bligh definitely counts as one of the people who tried to do right by the fan base.
>>97887744It wasn't the most common mobile format.Also the said filenames were not common here, and only Edge shitposted with those. He's also the faggot who accidentaly posted gay incest primarch bara porn by accident when he was shitposting.Which then also confirmed that he's unironic bara faggot on /aco/'s warhammer threads.Also we've seen the guy's receding hairline too, he's a dude, he's unironic 40-50 year old faggot that takes it up the ass.
>>97887794>Also we've seen the guy's receding hairline too, he's a dude, he's unironic 40-50 year old faggot that takes it up the ass.Grim. Dark, even.
>>97887111>Are there any villains of the story besides Kirby or faceless execs?Andy Smilie, the guy assaults GW staff and then gets the typical corporate promotion to a higher role to get out of trouble.
>>97887794Sadly I can’t believe even 25% of this because Ive seen so many lies about myself and others here. Would be funny if true tho.
>>97887802Pic related is him.
I have questions:Are Leagues of Votann rare or numerous in the setting?Are tau considered large in number yet?How numerous are Dark Elv-I mean Dark Eld-Drukari?How numerous are the undead Eldar/Titans+Wraith Constructs(etc)?How numerous are the Necrons really? Dark age of imperium then turned robotic era or do they number like the imperial guard?I like how numerous Tyranids/Daemons are, just seems like the endless villains of the setting. Necrons count but they're different.
>>97887819kinda funny you can tell he's a sperg from hair alone
>>97887760in general do some chapters sometimes rush their process to recoup losses? sure. but in general, chapters probably don’t have the geneseed stock or the spare power armor to “rush” the creation of their marines. if anything, some chapters may have more scouts to represent large influxes of recruits
>>97887824As many as the plot demands.As many as the plot demandsAs many as the plot demandsAs many as the plot demands
>>97887824RareNoVerySuper rareVery but they all sleeping
>>97887794>It wasn't the most common mobile format.it is>Also the said filenames were not common here, and only Edge shitposted with those. schizophreniaare the lamenterfag and decalfag edge because they both post with those file formats too?
>>97887824As many as the plot requires. Slightly more than you see on a table.
>>97887839Dark Eldar are numerous, somewhere around half imperium or less?
>>97887824>Are Leagues of Votann rare or numerous in the setting?Rare ish>Are tau considered large in number yet?No.>How numerous are Dark Elv-I mean Dark Eld-Drukari?A lot. But Craftworlders out number as per 10th edition codex.>How numerous are the undead Eldar/Titans+Wraith Constructs(etc)?We don't know.>How numerous are the Necrons really? Dark age of imperium then turned robotic era or do they number like the imperial guard?We don't know, all we have that it is implied their empire before becoming robots stretched from 1 side of the galaxy to the other.
>>97887840>are the lamenterfag and decalfag edgeNope, they weren't because we know they aren't.Also, it's funny how antsy you're about this for no real reason.
>>97887868>Also, it's funny how antsy you're about this for no real reason.there's the schizoid projection coming out
>>97887824intentionally left unspecified yet vaguely gestured at to not lock any potential plotline in the future
>>97887784>>97887837Thanks lads!>scout marinesI always thought those guys were a bad decision from their inception.Like I get the whole thing was to sell more marines to make more sales, but even then I always thought that scout marines are an antithesis to what marines are which are big armored dudes with powerful weapons with intent of violence that is never subtle or hidden.Scout marines or even marines doing anything considered 'recon' is a contradiction of that.
>>97887871I didn't imply anything. Just pointing out what I see.
>>97887885>I didn't imply anythingnobody said you did, stop reading things that aren't there schizo-kun~
>>97887889>nobody said you did>>97887871>there's the schizoid projection coming out
>>97887894yes we already know you can't read schizo-kun no need for restating
>>97887877Scouts can also be SMs but more rash and lightly armored. Pic related. Especially if your scouts are taken from gangers and other barbaric/warrior cult societies.As a marine goes through the scout company, then devastator, then assault and then finally tactical squad, their temper has been forged like the hot steel of a sword.
>>97887853less
>>97886876I should be able to finish the body tonight and then the arms should only take 1 or 2 eveningsThen I just need to decide if I want to add some blood spatter, and what to base it on. I was thinking a muddy puddle might be cool
Are there any scans of that new Reign of Iron book floating around or a list of the apocalypse stratagems? I wanna see what kind stuff they've added in for playing at that scale
>>97887904>As a marine goes through the scout company, then devastator, then assault and then finally tactical squad, their temper has been forged like the hot steel of a sword.Lost media at this point. I fucking hate primaris organization.
so are they doing another new boyz kit or no?
new yarrick seems pretty nice, can imagine a lot of shenanigans with the reactive move/extra overwatch either making them really fucking hard to charge off an objective or getting to shoot the opponent's scorers twiceaoe orders are also nice but getting to cuck a melee army out of their charge is pretty big
>>97887904That's pretty good, but it still doesn't change my mind on scout marines. Good art you posted though. I appreciate looking at old original artworks of 40k stuff.
>>97887824everything in the setting is going to appear small in number or rare compared to the quadrillions of the humans, orks, and tyranids. Orks and Tyranids rely on fewer “support” organisms to fight than humans, but there’s a million imperium worlds and some planets have trillions of humans. Tau, Dark Eldar, and Votann have decent numbers, certainly billions, but they’re clustered in specific areas of the galaxy (or clustered in a specific spot outside the galaxy in one alternate dimension metropolis) so they’re ultimately relatively rare. compare that to Craftworld Eldar who probably only number in the millions but span the galaxy from their colony-ships and webway gates. all four of those races probably have about the same impact on the galaxy as secondary players.Eldar wraith constructs aren’t hard to build. the issue is spirit stones and souls capable of being roused for battle. wraithknights have a specific unqiue issue of needing twins/lover/spiritually bonded couples, one alive, one in a spirit stone, to operate. I would be suprised if more than a few hundred wraithknight are active and functioning necrons are the biggest “who tf knows” trillions went to sleep, but how many will wake up and how many will still be functioning is completely unknowable.
>>97887965showed one model of the new boyz kit when they revealed the edition and their boss nob a bit later, they're mainly gonna let you pick a shoota and a choppa rather than one or the other like the old kit
>>97887824the leagues are rare only because they keep to themselves and live in a part of the galaxy most other races wont go, but they are mentioned to be quite a bit more numerous than the tau or eldar. each of the titular "leagues" are a massive galactic empire unto themselves
>>97887917I would have done it different
>>97887998i just didnt know if that was just a one off promotional model or if they actually had a new kit coming, because if they look as good as that guy i'll hold off till the new kit arrives
>>97886876>Alternative rules in OPAnybody tried these game systems?We always complain about GW rules writing so maybe those would be better by chance?Maybe the complaints are why they were added to the OP.Probably for the same reason the Wargames Terrain link was added too after so much complaints about game terrain.
Am I the only one that doesn't like the "effects" parts on newer models? The new weirdboy has a lightning arc, the ork biker guy has a flame burst, every smoke grenade has smoke coming out of it, the hellsmiths from AOS had flames and smoke everywhere.It just feels so cartoonish.
>>97888021I would have done it different.
>>97887877they’re still big dudes in big armor with big guns, but an army needs skirmishers to conduct flanking manuevers or chase down faster opponents given the scarcity of resources, it’s not that crazy that there’s not enough armor to go around for each rookie. Black templars often put scouts right in the thick of it mixed in with their regular crusaders.
>>97887955>lost mediaIt will endure. I mix primaris with the older patterns but I treat them like another mark with a twist and the unique weapons/armor like special equipment. I might use phobos marines as scouts, like to represent a vet sgt for instance.>>97887977That's okay, that's what's fun about 40k, we have enough to do what we like best
>>97887073i like him, the paintjob could be better but the model itself is cool. reminds me of the electro-priests from admech. i love the frankenstein electro-coil aesthetic
>>97888017New monopose kit in the starter set and potentially a proper multipart kit later.
>>97887073I would have done it different.
>>97887998This is actually a stand-alone promo mini, like the free ones they give away at GW stores.>>97888017>if they actually had a new kit comingGee I wonder why they revealed this model with the other Space Marine during their huge Marines vs Orks box reveal.
>>97888035Armour aside, primaris squad organization is a mess and the "lore" for it is barely a justification for it to not have any proper organization.
>>97888021I don't like them, I tolerate them if they're optional, but like tactical rocks they're just a way to inflate the plastic and reduce the value of the model.I hate that modern models are meant to be display pieces, instead of playing with MINIATURE (see: small, tiny versions of) soldiers I feel like I'm playing with very small collector's edition statues, except I gotta assemble and paint it. But hey, normalfags lap it up.
