According to this chud, not only are all the firstborn infantry going to legends, but now all the vehicles are as well!

Except land raiders and rhinos, which will be getting re-done. So you'll have to re-buy those, just like the drop pod (because of course they'll change the dimensions and invalidate the old ones).

Fuck bros, this isn't good...

Not your safespace. GTFO

My group switched to OnePageRules after 9e came out and was a total shitshow

This was always obviously going to happen. All the marine vehicles that arent the land raider or rhino hull look like shit anyway.
>>
>>97953107
Are you retarded? Most of the SM vehicles are based on the rhino hull.
>>
>>97953077
So, time to grab some Land Raiders before they go up in price again.

Firstborn Supremacy.

Love that all of his models are caked in dust and he doesn't even really play the game, just sits and bitches about shit while crumbs and spit fall out of his mouth like a baby.

>firstborn infantry going to legends
Just a reminder to everyone, nothing is stopping you from asking "hey, can I proxy these firstborn as primaris?" and assuming you ask politely, and aren't playing in a GW sanctioned event, the answer will most likely be yes.

You don't need GW to dictate how you are allowed to play and have fun.

Doesn't bother me, I play 4th edition mostly

You can buy a Tactical squad for like £5 second hand it's great
>>
>>97953077
A shame but it was predictable.
They still sell predators, vindicators etc for horus heresy so it's not even the issue of supplying the model.
>>
>>97956592
you are falling for bait, they still sell all the stuff for HH, so you just buy... HH and repurpose it for 40k

To be fair those vehicles could do with a refresh, they're very old kits now.

However, scaling them up even further alongside increasing model count on a smaller table than previous editions? Things were already cramped in 10th ed and this won't help.
>>
the primaris tanks are some of the ugliest shit they ever created, no tracks means visually its just a brick
>>
>>97956615
They don't even have the flying rule, no idea why they bothered making them hover tanks. Leave that to the Tau where it makes sense.
>>
>>97956596
aren't HH models the size of primaris though?
>>
>>97953107
Yeah, Primaris designs are clearly far superior.
>>
>>97956654
No, they are smaller than Primaris but bigger than old Firstborn.
>>
>>97956665
And this model is going dodo as well, together with turret one.

With the possible exception of The Lads here, the primaris have literally no good looking vehicle models.

I get keeping the Land Raider because it doesn't have a Primaris equivalent, but randomly keeping the Rhino and dumpstering all of the other Rhino-chassis vehicles feels like a very odd decision. Are they leaving the door open for easy "wow look we brought back the classic Space Marine model you love!" releases for a few years down the line or just giving the middle finger to Forge World so they can't do refreshes of them for their Scouring expansion?

Either way annoying as fuck, I was toying with the idea of putting together a mid-size Firstborn army to play older editions with and I don't want to be forced to spend hundreds of pounds buying it all at once before they axe the whole range.

You can get firstborn stuff used for pennies. That's probably why they changed the range to primaris as opposed to just re-scaling them, even back in 5th ed you could build a marine army from ebay.
>>
>>97956665
i always thought the assault bike side car was a little bit ridiculous but this thing blows it out of the water in how absurd and shit it is.
When are they fucking going to hire people that understand the thing that makes space marines and 40k in general so appealing is its not a toy line
>>
>>97953077
Serves marinepiggies right.
>>
>>97956813
Now now, without them each purchasing thousands of dollars worth of the same sculpt (but with a different gun, or holding their sword in another pose) we wouldn't get all the actually good sculpts
>>
>>97956821
you realise its only amerifarts doing that. They'll buy 10 marine boxes and paint them blue (the american chapter)
>>
>>97956642
>no idea why they bothered making them hover tanks
Desperate need to make Primaris "better".
>>
>>97956843
stuff like this spoiled the setting harder than Ward fluff
>grav technology is supposed to be lost and only a handful of relic land speeders and a chapter master's jet bike exist.

same thing with plasma guns being handed out

Who hasn't seen this coming since 8th? What did you expect?

Keep on keeping on marinepiggies

It is literally a toyline tho

>>97956579
Also as a reminder, legends units still have rules and points and are completely fine to use outside tournaments.

I suspect as more stuff goes to legends that we will see smaller tournaments allow them wholesale.

4th is the only good edition.
5th is a broken mess. Wound allocation allows you to do so much dumb shit that makes nuhammer look good in comparison.
>>
>>97953077

Why do people tolerate this? Why do people buy models from GW when they can at any time declare you can't use them anymore?

Wound allocation was extremely scuffed to be fair yes, and I used to abuse the fuck out of it with biker nobs back when 5th was new.
But these days im just chilling with the lads, so I don't assign wounds like that anymore and allow my nobs to die normally
plus 5th is when pic related came out, so its my favourite
>>
>>97957416
its literally not, model kits are explicitly labelled as not a toy. They are not supposed to be played with like a toy car for kids.
this is the sort of rank stupid comment that sprouts from anti+fans from reddit.
You see gw actually hires irreverent faggots and women like you and thats why they have so many problems with their fanbase.

>>97960656
5th also fucks with LoS, reduces the utility of transports and Fleet units with universal Running, and makes a whole bunch of other tweaks that make the games less interesting to play. And that's before we get to the codexes pushing Special Characters to give limited access to special rules rather than allowing fully custom army-wide themelists and being packed full of brainmeltingly dumb fluff.

5th was unironically the beginning of the end of classic 40K.

I don't think someone with that level of babycheeks and those DSLs can be called a chud

Fliers going as well.

post 40k minis on /toy/ and see what happens you reddit freak
>>
>>97956675
Someday I want to hear what happened behind the scenes that enabled that model and the Desolation Squad to be produced in the first place.
>>
>>97962170
It will be a good time to buy some cheap vehicles on eBay.
