SHAKE SHAKE SHAKERATTLESNAKE SHAKE
>>97967165>Did you have a good month of hobby?NoI was extremely drunk exactly one month ago, pissed a bunch of people off and then was so hungover I sold all my stocks at break even instead of decatupling down like I promised I would, at the very bottom of the third Iran War dip/oil spike, cucking myself from 3.5xing my money. Now instead of buying lots of stuff I have to budget the stuff.
I like orks :D
>>97967216how do I unsubscribe from this blog
Let Chaos idols take this thread!
>>97967165>TQ Not really, but the weather should be ideal fo priming in the ocming weeks so I can get to un-greying my plastic that's built up over the Winter and free up some space.
I'm defecting to the Leagues of Votann
>>97967237fuck off destinyfag
>>97967165>TQGot fuck all done this month
>>97967223You must read my posts, it is required reading for the thread.
Did you guys ever notice how the Lord of Skulls kit creates an adorable Jumping Spider/Roomba Bot?
>>97967165More work on the metal box. I already started assembly on some lychguard for a change of pace, so I might switch to them if bodyguard wins.
>Preorders for 11th are in May
>>97967216oh shit, we blogposting now? I didn’t hobby much this month, but that’s because I’ve been going out a lot! last weekend (when I’m normally painting) I went to a renaissance faire near me, and had so much fun seeing the jousting, shows, and cool outfits! most pictures have people in it, so here’s a picture of the flog I bought for $30, been self flagellating a lot to see if I bleed, but I force myself to stop after my skin starts turning really red. anyway! hope everyone else had a great time with their weekend, and next weekend too!
>TQ Practically nothing, built a Knight.
>>97967315Why would you even buy this slopbox.
>>97967165>TQYeah I think so.As a guard player, I’m at a loss regarding the hippogriff afv. Other than It seems like it’s meant to be “sentinels” for tank detachments, am I missing something?
>>97967328Probably because he's not a contrarian doomposter, /v/ermin-kun
>>97967001I ask again
>>97967341Sure. Maybe when they were founded they stashed one in a vault, a forgeship long lost to the warp turns up and gets reclaimed, all kinds of ways. Having a fleet is unlikely.
>>97967341Sure. But they probably keep them locked away, perhaps as part of a reference collection for tech marine training or something as well as having potent machine spirits, a treasure in their own right.
>>97967341Nigga at least one of the posters here has a chapter with a fucking Typhon, don’t worry about it.
>>97967341I would figure the First and maybe even Second Founding chapters have a stockpile of Heresy relics in their most sanctified places (unless you’re the Raptors where all of your shit blew up with your homeworld)
>>97967165I snapped a brush in half last night after paint rubric marines.I cant wait to finish 2 units of 5 then never get anymore for my t sons army. It'll just be vehicles and demons.
>>97967218>>97967225Ecks dee
>>97967341The setting is designed from the ground up to accommodate all sorts of weird armies and rosters. This doesn't come close to the boundaries honestly.
>>97967165>TQYeah, been having a lot of fun cutting up old space wolves
Is this the lamest starter set we’ve ever had? I’d say 4th edition Battle For Macragge but that was literally only cost $45 and came with the cool solar lander terrain. This box is probably going to be like $300.
>>97967413We haven't even seen the new starter set yet, why are you being a doom faggot?
>>97967417>can’t see the leaked contents of the box, and what we’ve so far and surmise what the entire box will look liketry to rotate an apple in your head
>>97967413
>>97967425This one is cool
Does anyone have that pic of Marazhai naked talking to the RT who was all flayed and bruised with a smug look on his face?Asking for a friend
>>97967424So you're doom posting because you're own negative thinking is effecing your perception, got it.
>>97967425>>97967426Yeah this is sick. Also it only cost like $70. Cost matters in determining value obviously.
>>97967165>TQSo far so good. Cleared out a project for one of my other armies and then dove right into a new scratch build project, a chinork warkopta for my kommandos. Been doing detail work on the passenger cabin.
>>9796743970 dollars in 2005 is 130 dollars today
>>97967442What thickness of plasticard do you use?
How have GW keeps their assholes puckered this long without somebody spilling the beans with the full box?
>>97967442I’ve seen it posted before, but I’m really curious, is there some kind of play on words with the word “chinork”? I know ork is obviously meant to be as orks, but what’s the chin part meant to be?
>>97967460chinook helicopter
>>97967165>Did you have a good month of hobby?quantity no, quality yes. Finished kravek and my college submission in one go, pretty happy with how the big lad turned out just need some varnish.
>>97967216>the oil 'spike'I find it interesting how we do not even pretend there are any fundamental values associated with assets anymore. Iran says no open boat lane and speculators think its a good sign. Fine by me, we can pretend inflation isn't real and GW plastic prices don't need to keep rising.
>>97967457The sculpts are so bad the leakers all thought that they were fake outs meant to bait and expose them.
There aren't any duplicates of options to double up on weapons for Knights in the kits, correct?
what army will let me field a mob of screaming drooling retardsorksgsc with aberrantsguard with ogryn/bulgryn spamam i missing any dumdums
>>97967492Space wolves.
>>97967492Orkz iz da strongest because you have the most variety of retard
>>97967502how many varieties of ork retards are thereyou got generic boy retardation and then weirdboyz and then autism mekboyz
>>97967506I mean they're literally all varying degrees of stupidJust don't take mekboyz
>>97967492World Eaters are the Kings of Retards, don’t you forget it.
>>97967517Space wolves are much more retarded
>>97967492world eaters
>>97967492Arco flagellants
>>97967492CSM cult list, run 200+ corrupted goobers.Sisters can do it now with arcoflags + sanctifiers + penitents etc
>>97967465Ah fuck forgot to blend the base into his feet>>97967492Templars World eaters Orks All are drooling retards but with them there no pretentiousness about not being retarded
>>97967442dis is peekwad! on da station at el-zee!
>>97967492Dark EldarWracks and Wyches are both different flavors of screaming retards
>>97967517>King of retards>God of war>Endless rage>Victorious through war tactics and brute force>King of retards?????? Strenght=Retardation?
>>97967492My vote is ogryns or gsc for that mongo style of terror.
>>97967560you never heard of retard strength before?
>>97967540ooh i like this one
>>97967506>how many varieties of ork retards are thereIn older editions and lore you've got madboyz which are pretty much the most retarded unit to ever exist in the whole franchise. They used to roll on tables to see what they did every turn, ranging from cowering in fear because they saw a butterfly to trying to hug the enemy and be friendly with them to chimping out and going on a rampage with powerfist level retard strength.
>>97967506>madboyz who’ve been mind broken by skipping 9 tech levels in a week, and are now gibbering schizos >unsuccessful kommandos who are convinced they’re being sneaky because they’re walking slowly despite being 6’3 and carrying around a massive backpack>tankbustas with rokkit hammers who blow themselves up because they either don’t understand cause and effect, or don’t care that they’re going to be blown to bits>boyz who agreed to be put in a deff dread because they were too lazy to get big the hard way, so now they’re in eternal agony inside a tin can>meks with shokk attack gunz who choose to use live ammunition instead of just sucking up junk to save the hassle of wrangling a bunch of snotlings>burna boyz who frequently catch themselves or their other burna boyz on fire because they’re not paying attention to the flames
>>97967564
>>97967568lmao the baseball cap really sells it
>>97967454Varying kinds. For the main structure I try to use at least .4mm thickness and use angled supports where I can hide them.>>97967460Chinook helicopter, used heavily in the Vietnam war. The actual FW model barely holds any resemblance to the actual helicopter it's named for, so the point of the build is to make something that at least looks a little bit like an ork version of it.
>>97967463thank you, makes me think if they ever get refreshed they should have the ability to transport vehicles and transports.
Is GSC the best army to field a 3D printed chaos guard army?Or is the Imperial Guard better for that?
>>97967568its such a massive pipe dream, but I do hope they get some kind of models during 11th edition. they’re such a cool concept.
>>97967583Sorry, mistyped, .4" thickness which is about 1mm.
How long do Eldar live?
>>97967594GW does seem to be on a nostalgia kick these days so maybe it's not impossible
>>97967609if you typed that into google you'd get an answer faster, about 1,000 years
>>97967568Oh man, and storm bots trying to stick a landing, or the shokk attack gun that teleported grots inside the armor of terminators…supa lifta droppas, bubble chuckas. Crazy stuff with random results.
Warhammer 40,000
>>97967609Somewhere under 10k years naturally.There are only a handful of Eldar still alive from before the fall and all of their lives have been extended unnaturally through the soul tithe or the path of the seer. Eldrad is the oldest living farseer and even he should be dead by all rights since he's half fossilized already into crystal
>see a land raider painted in contrast at my lgsDisgusting
What would you do to spice up the Iron Hands paint scheme and make them not look like knockoff Deathwatch, BTs, or RG?
>>97967651do their 30k oily black metallic scheme instead
Do you think I could proxy Space Marine "Movie Marines" using Custodes rules and get something close to their lore power level?
>>97967651Painting them like necrons
>>97967663Movie marines are not accurate to the lore at all, that's literally why they are called "Movie Marines" (as in schlocky Hollywood action movie) instead of "Lore Marines". The article is pretty clear about this.
What will Abaddon do to Perturabo for his childish rebellious act?
bought some classic metal stuff.
>>97967681Hem and haw and break up and call vashtorr his new warpsmith bff.
>>97967681Choke on his hypocrisy?
>>97967681Nothing because he's a useless wank character that needs to take a backseat now that the daemon primarchs are active again.
>>97967681Abaddon is a fag.
>>97967688metal dolls are cool
>>97967688I need a good recaster of metal models who casts in metal from China or Russia so badly it is unreal bros.
>>97967651The blueish highlights and washes to make them look like a deep blued steel instead of jet black always looked good IMO.
Based on those descriptions of how much of a pain in the ass they are to fight in that one iron warriors novel, a hypothetical hrud tabletop army may consist of fewer, elite models like the custodes rather than a horde army like the skaven
>>97967742But we could have Zoats.
>>97967492I wonder how playable would Tyranids can be if you ditch away anything that makes the synaphsis go to shit like not playing any large model or neurogaunts
>>97967742Nah, full on Hrud migration to make everyone shit their pants
I don't want to paint my dudes red but shiny red armor looks so good
>>97967788Just spray paint
>>97967651Saw this and planned to use it for my Tech Marines, but it could work as a new Iron Hands color.
>>97967742Kill team would be a great way to get weird and wonderful xenos not popular enough for a full army but no, more marines.
Be not afraid of the Ork that shoots 1000 different shootas, be afraid of the Ork that has fired a slugga 1000 times.
>>97967450the new starter set will likely be about 280-300 bucks.
>>97967801Yep. Kind of like blackstone fortress with Zoats and Ambull. You could have Sslyth or Rak’gol
>>97967651the paint scheme is not the problem, the priblem is that all of them need rad prosthetics.
>>97967822400 after the scalper bots snag all the preorders
>LGS made a post reminding people they have plenty of the new Custodes release in >pic showing it was untouched since release dayWild shit man. Why can’t this ever happen with a release I actually want lmao
Gonna take a nap and do the Marines Malevolent guy later today. Still got some time.
Custodes should have been silver.
>>97967844Why’s his face so skinny?
>>97967855It's the only smiling face I had. It'll work, trust the process.
Can love bloom on the battlefield?
>>97967841And then likely less 2-3 years later when the random "nos, Armageddon box set (2026) Chaplain" shit is being sold for 60% less than the GW price because he needs to move the product he failed at scalping.the system working as intended.
Is GW going to slowly remove aircraft from the game?
I wish there were more options to run/build hero models as custom characters instead of canon characters.
>>97967256To the contrary anon, in rat race societies the ability to resist pressure to consoom is even more important.
>>97967888There’s currently a campaign book being sold just for you
>>97967651Red. Pants.
>>97967883Part of me hopes so, but part of me loves some air units. Arvus lighter, valkyrie, that swing wing eldar fighter, among others.But they’re kind of silly to include in the game given typical table sizes. Speeder bikes and hovering infantry support vehicles? Sure. But actual aircraft is a bit much.
>>97967883The air models are cool though.
>>97967913warhammer 40k isn't a squad based game, otherwise you should also consent to removing large tanks like the beyblade or lords of war like angron. I don't know why people seethe so much about >size of whateverWhen kill team is explicitly the small force game and combat patrol is its shitty older brother.
>>97967909I saw that and it's a good start, but I mean the actual hero models.
>>97967918I know, I want the heldrake to be good again, but it never will be
>>97967341>>97967400There are even chapters like Consecrators and Charnel Guard who aren't OGs but have suspiciously good old gear.Not only is 40k rather accommodating to /yourdudes/ but there's a probably a chapter similar to whatever you're thinking of, as long as it's not canon breaking.
>>97967843>"you stupid chuds lost the argument over Custodes, it's so settled we don't even need to discuss it">Custodes sales plummetYeah it's settled alright.
I WISH THE LOCAL SUPERMARKET SOLD CHICKEN TENDERS IN PACKS OF 3 FOR 6 BUCKS INSTEAD OF MAKING ME PAY 12 FOR 6.
>>97967844This is absolutely detestable
>>97967948>Custodes sales plummetsource: his meth fueled dreams
>>97967844This is absolutely epic
>>97967651Sons of Medusa. Not a subsequent founding but straight up subfaction of Iron hands who split from the chapter to form their own.
>>97967923Who’s seething? I like em. I just don’t think they make sense for most of my games given table sizes and what my other units can do. It’s not like I’m playing on a 10x5 pingpong table for most games.
female custodes look cool actuallybut the helmets stay on
>>97967960I don't know why it always comes down to this kind of autism but just reduce the number of points you're using instead of removing units people like.
>>97967954I'll add some ravens that's gonna be pecking on the helmetless guys' eyeballs too
>>97967962it's ok to admit you can't paint female faces anon, most people can't
>>97967972There are none to paint with female Custodes until GW learns to sculpt.
please give me a reason to not get a stompa
>>97967970Fair enough. They do indeed make good fun for big games. Like I said, I’m torn. I like many of them. Would I be sad to see them go? Yep. I would also understand why they do it.
>>97967975ah you're retarded
>>97967977It looks like an upside down garbage pail with a crudely drawn face
>>97967400My IG have a looted Devilfish
Female custodes are a dumb concept for fictional and practical purposes. GW lost the plot by doing that.
>>97967983i was looking for reasons to not get a stompa, not reasons to get a stompa
>>97967977>>97967983find a trash canturn it upside downuse the contents to kitbash a stompawah lah
Was it theft?
Coming to TW40k: Console Edition.
I like metal models more than plastic models
>>97967844Fuckin gnarly
>>97967826We can never get Rak'Gol because of copyright reasons. They were nuked from the canon.
>>97967335They are good for delivering melta cannons to within 6 inches of enemy tanks on turn one, and then dying. If you're playing Armored Infantry and you can have strength 11 meltas it's pretty good. Outside of that extremely specific use case they're overshadowed by just about anything else.
>>9796806440k, based on what they've said so far and the very little gameplay shown, is going to be such a huge departure from how other TW games are played that its going to be either kino of the highest order (unlikely) or complete dogshit, with basically no chance it will be average.From what I've seen so far I'd hesitate to even call it a Total War game. That doesn't necessarily mean it will be bad. But the fact they are planning on trying to make it playable on consoles gives me a lot of pause. I don't really think performance is going to be the issue. It will be extremely dumbed down AI in order to give players using a controller even a fighting chance at winning. RTS games have never worked on console. You're very optimistic assuming it'd be Halo Wars rather than the same mismanagement behind Warhammer 3.
>>97968090But it's CA
>>97968064It that turns out true, then I will kneel and perhaps purchase some Votann.
Knights are fucking cool but I don't want to just bring a stat check army to casual games. How can I make them less like that?
>>97968106By bringing just one knight as an ally to a regular army.
>>97967991Custodes should be naked. Females especially. Prove me wrong.
>>97968090As someone who has been playing total war since Rome 1, there is almost no chance 40k total war will be good. I just hope it sells well enough to keep the company alive long enough to release Medieval 3. Like you said it doesn’t even look like a total war game. And that’s to be expected. The formula wasn’t made for sci fi shooting settings.
>>97968106either >>97968113or don't play them
My barrels?Undrilled.
>>97968131Your models?Don't exist.
In hindsight 2nd edition was more fun. 3rd edition was a mistake. Andy Chambers failed.
>>97968136decal status?
>>97968157So "you can't shoot over friendly bases" but phrased as poorly as possible?Because it kind of makes sense from a friendly fire perspective but what the fuck am I reading?
>>97968124There's still DOW4 to save us.
>>97967556>art shows Riptide casually torn apartMeanwhile through every single edition the Riptide has existed it has utterly dominated dark eldar.
I bought the iron warriors combat patrol, and lads, I hate these goofy ass helmetless heads included.
>>97968181The plot twist is the art is imagined from an unconscious DEldar in a drug binge.
>>97967844incredibly based
>>97968185lmao those are greati can hear the hurrrrrrr durrrrrrrrr
>>97968088Hmm. Hellhound or these?
What is he watching?
Will Tau still be overpowered in 11th ed?
>>97968223>admech bloomberg terminalHis stonks.
>>97968225At some point they will be. Depending on what inventory GW needs to sell.
>>97968223He is monitoring the situation.
>>97968116Why are animu posters always yhe horniest?
can Gojo beat the God Emperor (Horus fight power level)?
>>97968244why do you post the most obnoxious reaction images every thread
>>97968116Yes. Tall naked custodes.
>>97968116
>>97968090Yeah I have thousands of hours in tw over the years, both wh fantasy and history. I was very excited for 40k but then them making it for consoles killed that hype stone dead. There's no fucking way you could control something like TWW with a controller, there's too much going on, so it'll be some simplified baby bullshit and probably sell like hotcakes. Fucking monkey paw. At least DoW4 looks alright.
>>97967978none of this is a problem if people stopped bringing tanks and angron and jets to 1000 point games.
>>97967993all ork vehicles can be built from random garbage but the stompa is high-tier as far as ork shit goes
>>97967471>market is finally dumping on the current oil spikeHAthose cunts on /biz/ told me I'd be priced out if I sold my leveraged etfsHahahStupid cuntsAlways deleverage before the market fucking sudokus
>>97968316Just bring back 2nd edition vortex grenades.Problem solved.
>>97968210You need the hellhound to remove cover from your target if you don't want to be hitting on 5's. Once again guard players are in the position of needing to stack up buffs from four different units to do what space marines can do just standing there.
>>97968273Does anyone have the screen cap of him folding instantly when he thought he was talking to a chick?
>>97968260Huh? That one's a /40kg/ staple, tf you on about? Now tell me if this is an ai image
>>97968342Is that an ai image? Genuinely asking.
>>97968342>this avatar of mine is a 40kg stapleFuck off
>>97968294>2017>DOW3 is dead as fuck chaisng the xbox market but TWW1 is GOYT>2026>TWW40k sudokus chasing the xbox market but DOW4 is GOYTLIFE COMES AT YOU FAST
>>97968346NTA but it's Necromunda
>>97968346>>97968349You realise multiple people use that pic right? Might be meds time for you, bud
>>97968353You’d think that after the HYENAS attempted suicide they would be more careful.
>>97968088Some nice work in photo editing if none of that is AI generated. What programs did you use? Were all of the effects made in it?
>>97968364INSTITUTIONAL ROTThe same fucking retards who almost killed CA in 2013 with the Rome II fiasco hired even more retards, and they hired women who hired Indians. All the talent is gone and they hoped to coast on IP popularity.
>>97968260>>97968349Genuinely though what is so "obnoxious" about that pic that it riles you up this much?
>>97968346Its not. Its a necromunda drawing from the 2010s
>>97968381Wasn’t 2013 when they came out with that superb alien game?
>>97968375I did a tiny bit of color correction in gimp, but most of the effects are grok.
>>97967844this is top 5 coolest things Ive ever seen on this board.
repostin' this. very very early WIP on my biggest ever project. the underhive display shelf. now that the structure is all together I'll be adding culverts, walkways, pipes, wires etc. got a whole ton of bits for it including the Galvanic Servohaulers which I picked up on the last MTO run of them.gonna be posting frequent updates as I keep going.
>>97967991>a dumb concept for fictional and practical purposesSounds like warhammer to me, newfag
Female custodes shouldn't exist. Male custodes also shouldn't exist.
I'm 80% about to commit to Death Guard, but what turns me off is how I have to make them all similar in the painting process
>>97968456Truth nuke
how many bands have multiple 40k themed songs? I know of Bolt Thrower, Debauchery. Are there any others?
>>97968464Why? They're disgusting tin cans full of puss and filth. You can paint every plague marine in your army with a different shade of diarrhea and vomit and it would be lore accurate.
>>97968407>GIMPThanks bud!I now have an excuse to return to that software for more pain.>shotgun CadianIs that boy's shotty from a Necromunda or GSC box?Also good to see that shotgun designs haven't really changed so I can use some modern weapon STLs for 28mm miniatures.
>>97968464you have multiple warbands that have different color schemes. the purge with black chest and helmet, and green arms and legs., or pic which is all rust brass
>>97968475The GSC box. That kit is such a wealth of bits to make veterans with. Or it was when veterans existed.
>>97968485Which GSC box?>to make veterans with.I think they can be played as DKOK combat engineers now.>when veterans existedAlways a chance of being able to play an older edition.That's why I'm iffy on using newer models sometimes as backporting to older editions is not really that fun.
>>97968248In 1v1 vacuum duels, 40k is not that strong, the strongest psyker would probably get mogged by a saiyan saga-era DBZ character. But 40k wins purely on its sheer stank. Gojo probably kicks Big E and Horus at the same time, but Gojo's lungs are not surviving 40k's average pollution, "Holy" Terra is a shithole and he'd be happier to seal himself for 80,000 years in a meteor heading straight to would-be macragge before trying to navigate Terra on foot
>>97968499The old brood brothers, which were compatible with the old plastic cadians. Nu GW has done a great job of making kits that don't fit together easily. And yeah that's the only thing that's stopped me from just going back to fifth ed. There are so many units that didn't even exist back then.
>>97968471The whole body horror with scifi thing is very cool, I like their aesthetic despite being m*rines, I like their slow and resilient gameplay>>97968499
cats and rats wenn?
>>97968518>old brood brothersI should have collected a few boxes so I could put the Cadian extra head sprues on them. Hopefully there's some high quality scans of the Cadians/ogryns out there.>would love if someone shared them
Why are so many people still buy 40k when it's the most anti-consumer product of GW?
>>97968544Sunk cost fallacy and 40k is kind of the face of tabletop gaming so in a way it grabs the most attention and sales before people learn of recasts and STLs.I like the universe and don't like the company.
>>97968544Everyone plays 40k because everyone else plays 40k.Long live the network effect.
>>97968544it's the only game in towni used to play historicals but the only place that people played them at closed
>>97968552>network effectNTA butThat's a new one I didn't know.Granted I have been very interested in alternative systems to keep 40k models from collecting dust.There's actually two games mentioned in the OP.Anybody tried them or if they suck what's some alternative wargame systems where one can still easily use his 40k models in them?
>>97968544First thing people get introduced to when it comes to wargaming and then they learn the rules and stick with it like how DnD is for many the first of TTRPGs and they learn the system and then don't move anywhere else.I think.
>>97968544Friends play it, the community is large and the minis are genuinely cool, mostlyI think there is a rich get richer effect though, like 40k is the largest, so it gets more new players, so it gets largerKind of like your mum
>>97968046What game is this from?
>>97968147
>>97968544It's fun.Historical is always full of autists who get upset at every historical nitpick in your army.
>>97968147>ACK!
>>97968606One of the DoWs
>>97968613But 10th edition is objectively not fun.Have you never played a proper 40k edition?
What's the chances of ork bikes getting a refresh in 11e?
>>97968544I’ve been on the roulette of trying various alternative wargames for 4 years now. None of them stick and people just go back to GW products or onto a new game. I can’t afford to be buying new games every time something new is popular so I just gave up and went back to GW
>>97968681Played since 2nd.3 ed was the best. The Guard codex that let you customize your regiment.
>>97968090CA did do halo wars 2 which IMHO still is a pretty decent RTS, it leans more to APM than it does army comp (set it and forget it) but only slightly
>>97968744>40k is now HaloI will now become an annoying flying eyeball who thinks a green cyborg capable of rampancy is a million year old alien reincarnation of the Marathon Security Officer. I will also refuse to use my laser attack for all of the first game no matter how useful it would've been.
Why did GW make chaos space marines manlets?
>>97967844Fucking based.
>>97968147To be put in BBQ
>>97968788Not trying to be a dick but did you drown the models in wash on purpose?
>>97968789Yea...got carried away with Nuln Oli. Suprise suprise "Liquid Talent" is more of a joke than an actual thing.
>>97966659Had to tweak the design a bit to make it readable at the tiny shoulder pad scale.
>>97968767They just made primaris too tall. Same shit that happened with stormcasts.
>>97967844>marines malevolentGigabased
>>97968166You're reading GW bending over themselves so that you shoot from model to unit instead of model to model like god intended.
>>97968823The 'skill in a pot' meme is from the days when no one knew how to do anything wellGo over the flattest parts with 2 thinned layers of red As I've progressed my painting I've found myself just slathering it on less. Wash should only be used to pick out deep recesses, weathering, and other effects.But honestly keep the space yiff as he is, he looks plenty fucked up.
>>97968855NTA but wash really depends on the surface.If it's flat you want to recess shade to avoid pooling. If it's a highly textured surface like hair or fur you can get away with just slathering it on because the texture guides the wash
>death company marines don't have special dreads and guys anymore, they're just intercessors and ballistus dreadnaughts painted black with red XsI will never get over how fucking lazy this shit is.
>>97968861It's funny how the "marines are easy to paint" belief is a double-edge sword because all the large flat surfaces make them extremely easy to fuck up with the typical newfag traps; overwashing and contrast paints
>>97968788what's the story with this guy. The yiff is dying and the red guy is there to relieve him by shooting him in the head and ending his suffering?
>>97968769when did the MM become a thing anyway? They look like dead ringers for angry marines, but it couldn't possibly be that someone saw the interment memes and decided that that should be their own chapter of assholes.
>>97968872It's also what makes them extremely fast to paint the moment you learn to use airbrushes/spray cans and sub assemblies.
>>97968878In univere there are 2 theories. 1. They are Iron Warroiors who got their minds wiped out and painted a diffrent colours2. They are Salamander succesors who bassicaly embody all the bad emotions and elements. Plus they don't seem to fall into chaos so they are allowed to stay. High Lords don't care abaut PRDoylean explenation is that GW thought the name was funny and marines that are utter dicks but ale on the Imperial side are also funny so here we go.
>>97968899I'm not interested in the in universe lore. Marines Malevolent look like the /tg/ Angry Marines in-joke.

>>97968899>They are Iron Warroiors who got their minds wipedIs it hard confirmed that space marines of different legions generally adopted common personality traits or is it more of a cultural thing especially after the Horsey Horsing went down?Or is it both?
>>97968899>1. They are Iron Warroiors who got their minds wiped out and painted a diffrent colours>2. They are Salamander succesors who bassicaly embody all the bad emotions and elements.these both sound retarded
>>97968878They've been around since codex Armageddon and pretty much all supporting material they show up in they're assholes, it great.No known parent chapter, which is fine because if a chapter needs latch on to a cooler parent chapter/legion they're pretty gay.
I played 40k from 3rd to 7th editions and got out of the hobby since I moved somewhere I couldn't find opponents (rural Canada) well I moved again and am thinking of getting back in at the start of 11th. Should I spend my money updating my existing Ork and Eldar armies for the new meta or should I just start a new Imperial Knights army? I love the knight models so those will be fun to build and paint but I have zero reference for how they play on the table top. Any advice?
>>97969107You played the best editions, you're not gonna like the current rules.
>>97969107I don't play the game but it's shit.
Made two friends on my lunch break. Can't wait to get home and finish my collage entry.
>>97969107Well if you want to build and paint the models go ahead but 10th and presumably 11th army list building has gotten way over simplified with few meaningful choices. In 7th I ran a marine army that skipped on squad size and wargear on my infantry and squeezed as many points as I could into drop pod dreadnoughts and land speeder typhoon squadrons. That army can't even be played anymore.
>>97967991>>97968116Sisters of Silence and Sisters of Battle should only wear naked aprons and jump packs.
>>97969183They're made for BGC(big genestealer cock)
>>97969205Reminds me of that one diorama with genestealers gang raping sisters of battle
>>97969107Thankfully rule are pretty much free when you factor in tools like wahapedia and battlescribe/new recruit, so if you've got a collection it'd defintely be worth having a look into seeing what list you can make and running some trial games, if you're close to a lgs it could definitely be worth seeing if anyone interested in helping you you get back into the game.Detachments kinda work like the decurion/formation back in 7th, giving extra rules to units, but less restrictive, they're also bringing in the ability to run multipe detachment in 11th, so if you were used to doing detachment shenagins in 6th and 7th it should feel a bit familiar.Pretty much everything in Ork and Eldar is still usuable some models jst have newer sculpts, so i'd definetly recommend playing some games to see if you're stil the game, unless of course you get the urge to paint a project.>ruleshttps://wahapedia.ru/wh40k10ed/the-rules/quick-start-guide/>list building(don't worry too much about wargear)https://www.newrecruit.eu/

The drop pods boxed in enemy vehicles, the dreadnoughts were unavoidable threats the first and second terms while my infantry raced up the board to support them. The speeders filled in any gaps in the line.
>>97969140What armies do they play?
>>97969285Ork Loota Mobs
>>97969285thousand sons maybe
>>97969140My grandpa used to soak bread in beer and feed it to seagulls and watch them fly into things drunkenly until they died. I miss him so much.
>>97969252ngl, i'm kinda surprised to see a CAD list from 7th that went well.How did you list deal with any amount of intercept?
>>97969252But anons here told me literally no one in the history of 40k took tactical squads and that they deserve to be extinct.
>>97969252Thats a really fucking good list IIRC. >No one liked playing against itYeah I can see that. The list is completely redundant so target priority is pointless, you could lose half your models and still use the same tactics. The first turn FU of the drop podding cheap versatile boxnoughts would flinch even an experienced player. The pods themselves blocking up the opponents movement is just a cheap fucking move for a 140pts each.
>>97969322you're mistaken, people took tactical when they were good, like when you had to take them in demi-companies, but if you're just filling your troops slots scouts were much more efficient.
>>97969218Wtf, source?
>>97969314What does CAD mean? I'm a new poster here and dont know the board's lingo. Most of my opponents didnt run armies with a lot of intercept. There was a guard player who just spammed 4 or 5 Russes. An ork player that spammed as many bikes and nob bikes as he could. The marine player was the only guy who tailored his list. Those were my regular opponents and everyone else was pickup games against all comers lists at the GW.
>>97969343You can probably find it in the archive
>>97969352>What does CAD mean?Combined Arms Detachment, just the basic force org detachment in the rulebook that gave obsec to all your troops, i'm pretty sure GW got tired of tying alternate troops choices to certain characters and started making faction specfic force orgs before they switch over to full on decurions.You definitely did a great job of building a list for your local meta, did you ever play maelstom mission, because with how mobile your list can be it would have been great for the random objective deck.
>>97969323I wouldn't call it that good of a list but if he was mainly playing casual games I can see it doing well in that meta.
>>97969373Yes we did occasionally play maelstrom missions but we usually just used the core book missions and deployments. The guard player in particular would sometimes request we play death matches without objectives where the person with more points of models left at the end wins. It was not a particularly competitive group. There was this one Tyranid player who won like 80% of the games he played with us but eventually he found other more serious competitive guys to play with.
>>97969323>drop podding cheap versatile boxnoughtsWhy can't we have nice things anymore?
>>97967165>TQThousand Sons Combat Patrol and Disciples of Tzeentch Spearhead built and primedOf course, the building is the fun and easy part, the painting is where it gets tough.
>>97969423those floaty tabs would get very annoying very fast
>>97969395>just used the core book missionsbut anon they were a part of the core mission :')>The guard player in particular would sometimes request we play death matches without objectives where the person with more points of models left at the end winsI am not surprised by this after you mentioned they ran 5 russes.>one Tyranid player who won like 80% of the gamesDo you remember if he was running many flyrants? But I'm glad to hear a player finding a group that's a better fit for him.
>>97969422Best advice i can give you is that have a tzaangor or two with in reach while painting rubics, whne ever your getting tired painting trim and tight details grab a tzaangor and have fun doing colourful layering and drybrushing on tzaangors, it really helps.
>>97969343Found it in the archive. It wasn't SoBs though just naked human women getting raped. Not really worth seeing.
>>97969454i know you're sending Anon on wild goon chase.
>>97969433I got a bunch of Tzeentch stuff, I'm going to flip back and forth between Marines, Tzaangors, and Daemons. Pic related is what 've got finished so farGod I hope Daemons are still in the game next edition.
>>97969466oh hell yeah, those are looking great.>God I hope Daemons are still in the game next edition.They will be, because i'm positively thinking about it.
>>97969429He used Swarmlord and 1 Flyrant. I can't remember what they are called but he also used 1 of the MCs that produced more guants and 1 Moloc.
>>97969496>He used Swarmlord and 1 Flyrant>he also used 1 of the MCs that produced more guantsthis is a very specific question but was this player quite young, large, and later refered to as some sort of hammer?
>>97969476How is GW going to balance their rules obsession with keeping one faction = one game when it comes to chaos daemons?I don't put it above GW to squat the faction. Remember the WAACfag massacre when GW outright moved dozens of Forgeworld kits to Legends?
>>97968185The Red Corsairs and Iron Warriors upgrade are so bad that I want to meet the person who designed them.
>>97969511because Daemons have always been the intersystem faction, simple as.
>>97969252You really squeezed points on those tactical squads, why not just take scout? Over all it looks like a fun list with a coherent strategy behind it. Using the drop pods to block streets is a true griefer move.
>>97969502He was younger than me and like 6ft but he didnt have a nickname.
>>97969511Easy, they just remove daemons from every game but one. They've done this before with beastmen.
>>97969511>one faction = one gameDon't most of not all the 30k Custodes stuff have rules for 40k too?
i'm a retard
dont worry anon we all are you're in good company
>>97969511remove the current demons from 40K and keep them in AoSgive 40K its own cyberdemons, as piecemeal additions to the normal chaos legions codexesgive HH its own line of plastic ruinstorm daemonsTOW gets made to order runs of the older metal demons, otherwise no demons for them, just undivided norscans and beasts
>>97969517Worse saves, no plasma guns to shoot from within the rhinos and no rhinos as transports. With old AP a 3+ save was worth a lot more than now. The "everyone just used scouts for tax troops" is a meme invented by primarisfags trying to justify why tacticals need to be removed from the game for the crime of having extra weapons despite most troops still working like that 10 years later.
>>97969544>TOW gets made to order runs of the older metal demons, otherwise no demons for them, just undivided norscans and beasts>lets remove demons from 40k and TOW/WHFB, the original settings those models were made for and leave it in the shitshow game that berely sells nowadaysYou're retarded.
>>97969565Anon GW doesn't care or respect any legacy. They'll desecrate the longest lasting pillars of anything they've created if someone in a suit says it'll make a single cent more even if it doesn't in the end.
What are some good bits sellers? I want to make my Sorcerers stand out from the Rubrics by giving them unhelmeted heads, but TS kits don't come with any
>>97969517The mobility of the Rhino and plasma guns. Parking that on top of an objective practically guaranteed I would hold it while enemy shooting was focused on the dreads and assault marines closing in on them. 7th was so much better than 10th. Only thing I like about 10th is split fire.
>>97969581Honestly these days you're best bet are recasters, there's a few ruskies and FW east bros that have bits ranges.
>>97969584>Only thing I like about 10th is split fire.I feel like it wasn't really needed back then. You didn't need the saturation of weapons to kill stuff in a single turn that you need now so losing some boltgun shots because you were shooting your melta at a vehicle didn't really matter.
>>97969107IDK much about Ork lists but tell me what Eldar units you have and I'll tell you if its viable.
>>97969587I just want some spare heads for the new Custodes kits, I figured they'd be cheap and plentiful online

I'd quite like to paint army, I might actually stand a chance at getting it fully painted., are there better options besides custodes?
Finished my collage entry.Built an augmented bonehead based on the crucible rules. Obviously there's no rules for it but I gave him a grenade launcher for fun, it's inspired by the Rumbler from Darktide. Was a fun small scratch build.First time painting human skin and faces. It's not the greatest, but I'm happy with it. Learned some new stuff for painting, like mixing paints to make the armor color and skin color.
>>97969626With the 3 Falcons as your backbone I'm sure you can make a list viable for most casual play. Also Swooping Hawks and Fire Dragons are auto-include. You can definitely make a list worth playing even if it isnt super competitive.
>>97969636Knights. Ten models tops.
>>97969639>First time painting human skin and faces. It's not the greatest,for a first time i think you had a good start, ogyns are bit difficult since they're much larger so that have more smooth flat surfaces, but personlly my go to is skin tone base, heavy red/brown wash, and then drybush to pick up details then highlight naything i think needs a high light.also glazing if you realy want to do things.
>>97969639>his eyes, black as pits >showing no love, no mercy, no remorse
>>97969628Yeah but I want more humanish heads to highlight the difference between them and Rubrics
>>97969252God I wish I could make anything with 3 drop pods work these days. There's just not enough space on the board to do it, let alone effectively. The 9" deepstrike restriction is o dumb.
>>97969639He's a big guy.
>>97969671That really sucks. I knew making such a hyper specific list would eventually see the meta shift and make it not viable but during 7th edition when I ran this list I had no idea that Primarus was going to flip the fucking table over and make my marine collection worthless.
>>97969626Those are all relatively good units at the moment. They recently released 2 new detachments for Eldar corsairs which you might like to try out if you like using Yriel.
>>97969686I used to play with a heavy drop pod army back in 7th using that formation with devastators and grav cannons. Still paying for my crimes it seems. Been 10 years since drop pods were worth using at all.
>>97969676UUUU
>>97969666Thanks for the idea, gonna try that recipe for skin next time I paint it. Also what base color do you usually use, does it matter?>>97969667Big Hat Man said he'll get 2 extra rations + 1 medal if he takes over the enemy bastion. He will not stop until the job is done.
>>97969690Not that poster but I moved towns right at the start of 8th before I had even picked up the book and realized I was not going to find any opponents in a 400 population farming village. I only got back into 40k recently now that Ive move to a city with a 150 player 40k Facebook group. From what people in this thread has been saying the game peaked right before I left for 10 years.
>>97969676For you.
>>97969687The actual reason I started using him was because the guys at the 40k club I joined hated cheese and I promised them I wouldn't do a jet bike warlock farseer spam.
>>97969705I wouldn't say the peak was 7th, more like 4th. But 7th still feels like 40k in ways that nothing after it has. 10th is definitely the worst edition, that's for sure.
>7th is the peaknothing quite like getting 3000 points of marines in a 1500 point game because I bought the brand new DLC formation, only to lose anyway because a wraithknight looked in my direction
>>97969713do eldritch raiders jetbike spam instead :)
>>97969720It wasn't nearly that bad. It was the last time I felt the need to start a new army. I would not start a new army in 10th or 11th. Im not giving GW any more money.
>>97969720Sounds like early 10th with the ultramarines clown car and... wraithknights again.
>UBI>meritocracy>freedom of labor and self expressionare Orks the good guys?
>>979697144th was definitely better than 5th*. Marines and guard had custom faction rules which were a lot of fun.*I am an Ork player and in 5th Orks fucking ruled.
>>97969720I prefer late 6e. It has all the fun parts of 7e without the bullshit. LoWs are locked behind 2000+ point games, no formations or detachment soup, etc.
>>97969727>all backed by endless war and slave labourAs good as modernity.
>>97969626Thats completely viable in the current meta. If anything I'd say add one move wave serpent for a fully mechanized roster.
>7th apologistsWhy suddenly?
>>9796974310th is so bad that even 7th looks appealing by comparison.
>>97969743I'm the poster who came with the question "I have not played since 7th because I moved to a rural farming community; are my lists still viable now that I live in the city again". This dredged up people's memories.
>>97969747You guys say the same back in 8th and 9th as well.
>>97969754And it was true back then. 10th is even worse, that's all.
talk me out of it
>>97969727>>97969738Dark Eldar have all that plus state sponsored health care and public transportation and a greater tolerance for other species in their cities and professions with the biggest port of cultural exchanges in the galaxy
>>97969754The objective ranking>4th>3rd>5th>6th>7th>9th>8th>10th>honorable mention of RT and 2ed because they are completely different
>>97969734I own an Ork Stompa and I would never use it in anything less than 2000+pts. My Ork list is a greentide style list with 100+ infantry at 1750pts (thats just what we tend to play in the local meta).
>>97969757When GW releases these boxes they are dumping inventory they know won't sell based on the meta. Never buy their bundles.
>>97969757I don’t get it, how are they making a profit off of this?
>>97969761Sure, but most Dark Eldar hate their lives. Orks are having a good time.
>>97969466>>97969476>>97969511They're gong to make Word Bearers a proper army and have them be viable to field tons of daemons in their army.
>>97969763Please don't use my model for your shit opinion. Thanks.
>>97968967Does anyone have that pic of Marazhai naked talking to the RT who was all flayed and bruised with a smug look on his face?Asking for a friend :)
>>97969776It's not an opinion. It's an objective fact. And your model is cool. Which is also a fact.
>>97969763The objective ranking:>Edition I started playing in>Edition my big brother started playing in>Edition my friends started playing with me in>Edition I played once or twice and don't remember much about because I was busy>Edition I skipped entirely>Current edition that is both strange to me and more popular than any of the editions I liked
>>97969751Why did you move to a rural farming community?
>>97969782>Current edition that is both strange to me and more popular than any of the editions I likedThat's because GW got actual marketing and mass media IP appeal nowadays. You can't really expect anyone that didn't start with 10th and thus only knows 10th to believe it is the best edition just because 40k is more popular nowadays.
>>97969734>without all the bullshitlate 6th still has the cancer of fliers and the endless conga line of daemons
Every edition has a bullshit combo. I think it'd be more productive to compare the structure and design philosophy of the rules instead of the presumed balance of an infamous combo.
>>97969789I work remotely and cost of living was way cheaper.
>>97969792Flyers were something that logically should have been included in the game from the beginning. The only fly I ever owned was the space marine Storm Talon but the IG and Ork players I battle against use flyers a lot. Nothing wrong with it. Tbh it made no sense for there to not be flyers.
>>97969720I dunno, man. Seems balanced to me?
>>97969800This. I'm far more interested in how much fun can be had by each player in the game, rather than how few or how many broken combos there are.This is why I've said 10th is shit the whole time. There's so few forms of expression in this hellscape that a horribly balanced edition with even an ounce more flavor looks like a delicious medium rare steak by comparison.
>>97969761>Dark Eldar have all that plus state sponsored health care>state sponsored health careNot really? Every haemoncolus is a private business pretty much, you pay them to patch you up.Dark Eldar is literally AnCap meme made into reality.
>>97969774hell yeah!
>>97969840fuck off with this cringe whore already
>>97969565You don't understand GW.TOW is not WHFB and modern 40k is not classic 40k.Demons don't sell, and they are in the way of their internal policies, so they'll discard them.
>>97969847Daemonettes don't even have 6 tits anymore. What's the point.
GW announces Warhammer 40k Classic. What old rule set should they model it off of and what factions are supported for it?
>>979698614th edition when most of the codecies had rules for customizing your army.
>>97969819>Nothing wrong with itnothing wrong with only being able to shoot fliers on a 6 unless you brought a flier tax of your own?
>>97969861>Warhammer 40k Classic*Warhammer 40000 gothic
>>97969865Wow just like how IRL jets work.
>>97969819Flyers were a thing already in 3rd edition. Superheavies too.
>>97969861I don't want 40k classic I want the modern game to not suck balls and to not try to b a different thing.
>>97969865Im an ork player. My Lootas that I was going to take anyway have enough firepower to take down flyers without a tax.
>>97969869No shit, retard. Realism is no excuse for the game playing like ass.If we wanted to be realistic 40k would just be 5-10 individual guys hiding in bushes while drones explode them if they ever get seen, but that's boring as sin
>>97969763Using someone else's model for opinion posting is a little rude honestly
>>97969881Don't remember about 6th specifically but flyers used to have to roll reserves to even show up so it was a risky tradeoff.
Anyone check on the Eldar players recently? Are they alright?
i took the freehand pill todayeven simple geometric shapes are difficult
Is the collage deadline at the end of a day in UTC or CST?
>>97969840Kek
>>97969897>tourneyfaggotry
>>97969913The picosecond the day turns in new zealand.
>>9796989711th will make us broken as fuck2 more weekstrust the plan
>>97969897>deathwatch off screenkek
>>97969897at least deldar have a few more weeks until the Crabs claw them to death
>>97969897so this is the power of aeldarifags *FARTS*
>>97969897Was this "balance" worth ruining points?
>>97969897>45% is in the grey>51% is in the greenThis disparity mildly irritates me.
I want to put 10 assault intercessors, a captain, and a sanguinary priest in a land raider. The crusader and redeemer variants have superior movement speed (and the redeemer potentially has a more useful loadout) compared to the base land raider, but I don’t know how to make use of the extra transport capacity and having unfilled seats would upset me greatly on account of my autism.
>muh stat check armyIf you are greedy and don't bring anti-tank, you deserve to get punished.
>>97969965Don't look at teh transport capacity look at the weapons. Do you need the lascannons? If not, then the flamers are great.
>>97969972>I don't understand what a stat check army isThey are not armies that punish players for taking minimal or no solutions at all for a specific unit type, they are armies that punish players for not specializing in countering that specific unit type. You lose because you brought a reasonable amount of anti-tank or anti-infantry or anti-teq to face more rounded armies.
>>97970012If you brought a reasonable amount of anti-tank you wouldn't lose due to your lack of it. Specifically building for anti-tank will give you an advantage, not simply bring you to parity.Again you are a greedy retard that thinks a "reasonable" amount of X counter is the bare minimum you can get away with for armies that do not do X.
>>97969972
>>97969743Because old is always good, and new is always bad. Especially coming from people too young to have actually experienced old when it was new.
>>97969565You’re a bit retarded yourself
>>97969565aos is like the 3rd best selling wargame behind 40k and battletech, you should probably stop getting your information from 4chan shitposts
>>97967165>Did you have a good month of hobby?I did my collage guy after not doing one for a few months, so thats good
>>97970063he may be exaggerated but age of smegmar is cringe faggot shit and so is defending it, you faggot
>>97970077Cope n seethe my lard friend!
>>97970084DIE
>>97970039>If you brought a reasonable amount of anti-tankDamn I so I guess every single person who faced this list just didn't bring a 'reasonable' amount of anti tank?His opponent spent 500 points on defilers, had 2 WDP and 2 big squads of noise marines, which is more than half his army as the best anti-tank that EC can access.
It's a grot-shaped grot.https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/ixcvohlb/new40k-grot-week-reveals-day-4/
>>97969897All eldar core gameplay tricks were nerfed to the point of being unusable (and for good reason) so they are just an army of very expensive very flimsy very fast models now.They'll be back next edition anyway because they always are.
>>97970104He didn’t need the shirt.
>>97970105>Rightfully nerfeddo not worry comeradethe broken rules are right where they belong
>>97970104He looks like he uses the hard R when blowing up black female guardswomyn
>>97970104This is the first grot with grit they're showing
>>97970113Rigger?
>>97970104Wonder if they'll actually have [Grenade] this time
>>97967165Hey everyone it's once again time for the collage anchor posts. This month's theme was crucible character and/or "space wolves getting absolutely destroyed".I'll try to post every thread but I'll also check the archive as usual. If you want to make it easier to find in the archive include "april collage submission" in the post.Here is the vote for next month's theme:https://strawpoll.com/40Zm4p3YlgaNext thread's anchor will probably be the last for month but I usually take about a day to do the collage. I encourage you to post your stuff even if it's a little late, I might spot them before I'm done.
>>97970104>goblinMeh
>>97970094You don’t use anti tank for C’tan chimpo, use a squad of 10 high volume shooters with an equivalent Lt./Cpt. for additional rerolls or sustained hits/devastating wounds ect…you just peck them down with 1 dmg strikes which makes their Necrodermis useless. Do you even play games fat boy?
>>97970125Shut the fuck up mutant, you don't play the game
>>97970125This hasn't been the case since the durability changes. C'tan are like 33% more durable against 1-damage spam since they did the changes.
>>97970119Posted this earlier >>97969639It is my collage submission
>>97970125what fucking mass 1 damage rerolls in EC?
>>97970111It's our turn to play unfair Warhammer for an edition while they play fair Warhammer.
>>97970139against the same ultramarines, no doubt
>>97970136Interdasting…i’ll bring 3 C’tan for my games tonight and let my opponent use his 10 intercessors with Lt. and tell you how it goes. >>97970141Never played against EC but I would think they have some sort of equivalent no?
>>97970148Are you fucking seriously talking about your ass regarding the best way to down C'tan while not knowing what other armies do?
>>97970050Anon we're talking about 10th here. It's not bad because it's new. It's just bad.
>>97970145Ive offered to let him use my armies but he wont for some reason >>97970137So many Wolves being used as comedic fodder by dog shit painters, it’s excruciating.
>>97970143Marines have been playing Unfair warhammer for most of this edition. They've been the best army in the game for more than any other army this edition.
>>97970154Well I assumed most armies have some 10 man squads that are mass attacks similar to the Armies ive used and played against.
>>97970157Each and every one of the entries are better than your slop
>>97970173If we get around 40 entries of your yiffs eating shit will you finally leave for good?
>>97970157some of the better painters of this thread are participating as well, sit the fuck down you collosal sperg
>>97970182>my boys>us
>>97970173go away
>>97970182Why doesn't it surprise me to read you have a piss fetish?
>>97970148>Never playedWe can tell
>>97970161Okay, so you don't know what you're talking about. Roger.
>>97970094>X is broken!>My evidence? An army that is dogshit at countering X can’t counter the strongest list in the game that happens to do X!lmao
>>97970182>AI photos
>>97970195But he brought a reasonable amount of anti-monster. Arguably too much. So why is he losing?
>>97970199I don't want any gulags I just want you specifically to stop bothering this place.
>>97970192So you’re saying EC have no 10 man squads of High volume shooters is that what you’re telling me??
I'm surprised just how much progress I made on my collage project yesterday. All that's left is some gems, the sword, the portal energy, and the pinwash. When do submissions close?
Time to think anonsTell me the worst possible unit for every factions of the gameFrom a gameplay perspective, not the visual
>>97970199stop projecting and stop ban evading
>>97970182>usblud thinks he's on the team
>>97970211I don’t bother anyone, I answered a question and was bombarded with insults for no apparent reason.
>>97967341Yes, in fact most chapters could have one. A first founding chapter definitely has one
>>97970216Midnight eastern time usually but as collage anon said>>97970119 he might be able to squeeze you in even if you're a little late.
*tock*
>>97967651As anons already said the 30k scheme is out there. Personally I'd go with a heavier use of white, for instance painting the iron hand white instead of metal. Additionally I'd play with the color red.
>>97970234Based coper
>>97970234stop ban evading
>>97970234Quite possibly the most participants in any collage so far lmao, try to make it at least a bit less obvious that your rectum is fractured
>>97970228I forgot that there's no April 31. Fuck my stupid chud life. Maybe I should just break out the acrylic washes this time so that I don't have to wait on varnishes and oils to finish drying and curing.
>>97970234Alright little buddy. See you tomorrow.
>>97967844I normally would say you should ignore the lolcow, but this is a worthy exception. Godspeed purple anon.
>>97970260kill yourself you pathetic faggot
How many submissions have there actually been so far, delusional decalcope aside?
>>97970264We'll see tomorrow. More than average, at least.
>>97970198That is one of the most meta defining lists in the game and one that EC specifically sucks at countering.
>>97969871Flyers were in Rogue Trader. There were rules for them in every single edition of 40k to exist. They just weren't common back then because they didn't have plastic models, you had to buy expensive resin kits from Forge World and get rules in places like the Citadel Journal before these were even well known. The explosion of flyers started when GW began producing plastic ones and putting them in Codexes.
>>97969861>What old rule set should they model it off of2nd edition unironically. 4th is good too.>and what factions are supported for it?All of them except Knights and Primaris Marines.
>>97970293>The explosion of flyers started when GW began producing plastic ones and putting them in Codexes.incorrect, the explosion only happened when they were given game breaking rules, and they began disappearing the moment said game breaking rules were dismantled
Since I won't have time to use oil for my submission's wash, should I just whip up some marine juice and slap that on?
>>97970305Sure
>>97970305you can touch it up later on, just bring it to 80% completeness or something
>>97967651I'd like to finish my current army first but afterwards I'd like to add a few squads of different chapters to my collection, and for IH I'd go with a more germanic knight appearance to go with the gauntlet symbol
>>97970299Sure that was part of it, but people overstate how much this influences sales. Tournament players are 1% of the playerbase and balance has never had as much of an effect on purchases as you think.
>>97969897>derpwatchnigger fucking HOWyou can LITERALLY deny their WHOLE schtick by FUCKING SCREENINGhow retarded are these tourney faggots
I don't care if my army is bad I'm still going to play it.
We're currently at 40 (!) dead Space Wolves for the collage, and we're not even done yet. Great job, everyone.
>>97970334you run out of screens because people are going heavily into anti-tank to counter the defiler/c'tan meta and then just get gaped by deathwatchIt's not that DW is OP, it's just counter-counterplay
>>97970334>these hardcore competitive guys who play the game for prize money and have won numerous tournaments are just dumb, I, a random anon, knows how to simply beat Deathwatch ezThen why don't you go do it, retard
>>97970341Fucking hell.I have to make a stop to the LGS today but I'll be able to add a 41st today.
>>97970340Based
>>97970341I just came back to /40kg/ and found out about this the other day and I paint very slowly so I won't be able to make it on time, but I want you all to know I'm starting work on my late entry and will post when ready.
>>97970340Amen. As a faction specialist myself I find having a high degree of familiarity and experience with your faction often helps make up for so-called "bad rules" if you just know how the get the most out of what you've got. I don't play anywhere near the highest levels of skill meta though
>>97970362>I don't play anywhere near the highest levels of skill meta thoughVery few people do, if you just play with the local joes at your LGS you can stomp with any faction.
>>97970119Posted him before but just making sure
>>97970360Is your guy particularly big? If so you could do him for the May collage and paint him at a more relaxed pace. My March submission had a dead wolf for the tactical rock.
I only pick units that look cool. If the sculpt is shit or ugly it's not going in my army. That's why I can't play nurgle armies, they are too gross.
>>97970349guess the assholes in my area are just that fucking good...also fuck those fortis teams theyre so fucking useless why the fuck are they spamming 2-3 squads dont they know how easy it is to cream 2 wound marine bodies
>>97970333tournament players aren't the only ones drawn to waacfaggotry, unfortunately
>>97970378Quite big! That sounds good.
what's our answer to kots?
>>97970408don't post slop
>>97970408Chink here, I think Trench Crusade's Iron Sultanate is a better take on Islamic culture than GW has done for Cathay by far. Cathay feels bland how safe it feels.
>just bought a battleforce to start a new army>already eying the 11thed box to start an ork armywhy am I like this
>>97970405>Quite bigDefinitely works for May's collage then.I'm blasting through the last steps of my Lhykhis telefrag model and doing surprisingly well, but I really don't enjoy rushing through a model.
>>97970408Ragdan fox furries
>>97970415Anon, Cathay isn't meant to be islamic, it's chinese...
>>97970421trying too hard to pretend to be him
>>97970421stop ban evading
>>97970420It's a better take on a theoretically controversial culture. It's not the same culture but if GW did China that well, I wouldn't be complaining as hard.
>>97970420I think what chang meant was that the iron sultanate of trench crusade did a better job being an interesting faction compared to what GW did with cathay.
>>97970420He knows that and is commenting on the quality of fictional portrayal of different cultures in wargames, not saying that Cathay is Islamic. This is why he specified that he is Chinesealso they will see the light of Allah soon inshallah
>>97970436post timestamped hellblasters
>>97970341lmao nice. I'm going to be working on my entry when I get home. Might not have enough time to finish it completely but I'll be submitting it anyway

>>97970455Instructions unclean, votann got trans
>>97970466Destiny has won...
>>97970448Shite
>>97970455a votann land train is about the only thing that would get me to play votannI love the idea of armored trains so much that I'm almost considering making a roguelike around the idea
>>97970433>also they will see the light of Allah soon inshallahconsidering what they are doing to Uyghurs (and all of their Ethnic minorities really) I doubt that Granted the west always had a small hand in infuencinf Islamists so who knows.
>>97970455Give land train and cyclops
>>97970448Exactly what was expected and not one thing more or less. An average and unremarkable viewing that is neither bad nor good.
>>97970493I think GW fucked up by not giving the vespid armor with the remake, because it makes them look like retarded savages with guns without it.Also the nu armor/helmet design for vespids is very fucking lazy
>>97970408Warhammer Fantasy General is right here: >>97962049
death to taufags!
>>97970503>not one thing more or less>or lessnta but it's definitely gonna be somehow less interesting that expected, GW is constantly lowering the bar, SOMEHOW.I think it's like my mother told me as a kid: if you aim for 5/10, you're gonna get a 4/10. Then if you aim for a 4/10, you'll get a 3/10, etc. If you want 10/10 you need to aim for higher than perfection and exceed your own expectations.
>>97970119Repostin from last night for space wolves being obliterated, All this fuck has done in my games so far is aura farm with a 10 man of terminators in the mid board or piss missile into something with mutilators from deeptrike then die.
>>97970509Nigga he literally asked what 40k should have in contrast to it.
>>97970503It's full of primaris trashing over classic designs and units so it's inherently bad.
>>97970524>this is supposed to be cataphractii armor
>>97970508They are kinda retarded in fluffBut you're right, clothes and armor is what makes or breaks minis
>>97970119Once again submitting mine the last day, happy with how this guy turned out, now I gotta do it all over again whenever the fuck I can get a second one>Next month gonna be big dudesWell shit maybe I’ll submit the second one if I can find one
>>97970540
>>97970532Are they kinda retarded?
>>97970543The tau didn't get they were a conscious intelligent species at first, even now with the "translation helmets" it's described as not like talking to one individual but talking to a hive of bees as a whole at any given moment, they have a very alien mentality, and they still behave as a swarm more than as individuals, with the tau handlers having to goad them to make the more tactical decisions on the field or restrain their swarming instincts, like throwing themselves at a threat regardless of self preservation, to outsiders they look like humanoid shaped beasts.
>>97970564>The tau didn't get they were a conscious intelligent species at firstWasn't it the other way around because of the mindset of Vespides, rather than intelligence?
>>97970508I dunno I like them. The old resin ones were so fucking hard to work with I still have 5 I’ll probably never paint.New Vespid, old to follow for comparison.
>>97970540Goddamn that's sweet. Is that a greenstuffed spinal cord?
>>97970586The lack of armour isn’t really that big a deal. Their natural chitin is comparable to carapace and tau infantry as it is. I’d love to see a Vespid based battlesuit though.
>>97970586If I were to pick up vespids I'd first need to find a way to give them armor that I like, that's really my only gripe with the new kit.
>>97970586>>97970595Nigga shut the fuck up, no one asked you.
>>97968544I use exclusively third party printed models in my wargame group. I play custom Guard and get my ass kicked most games so no one cares I don't use official models at the local gaming shop. If my win/lose ratio was positive I JUST KNOW some people would bitch and moan about my models.
>>97970585I might be misremembering that bit, but in any case they're a very weird species with a weird value on the individuals.
>looking like Big dudes will be the may themeWhat big guy (for you) will you paint anon?
>>97970601"I want armor for my vespids" anon here.To be fair I don't care/mind if someone likes the new ones, my gripes aren't gonna go away just because someone "doesn't care / doesn't think it's a big deal" about something.I'd rather hear people speak an opinion I don't fancy than nobody speak.
Coming back to 10th during its swansong, I am finding a lot of fun in it. I've had more Imperial Guard type moments in these games than I have in other editions, things like marching a big squad onto an objective for a few victory points knowing they'll be gunned down soon after, or holding a monster tied up in melee for turns on end. Painted up the Command Squad member w/ the banner and the Russ executioner for this game.
>>97970611I have 3 classic dreadnoughts ready to paint. I have two more but one I'd have to strip and I'm scared cause it's the old christmas tree vendread and the other is unassembled.
>>97970604And I like them for that. It's pretty simple but I think they work on both a surface and deeper level.Makes a lot of sense to have a popular aux be composed of a hive-like species for the Greater Good faction.
>>97970618Not to ruin your fun but how are those things that wouldn't happen in older editions? That's always been the guard playstyle.
>>97970601stop ban evading
Hehe beep boop
>>97970618You should paint white stripes on your old cadians and run them as whitshields/conscripts, or vice versa>gold laurels and white skull behind the tankThat's the kind of little decisions that work beautifully, most people will just paint it in one color.Beautiful models.
>>97970605Is that a men of iron pic?
>>97970611Been looking for an excuse to paint my Death company dread, Moriar the Chosen.
>>97970635IH champion for SM2. Full pic?
>>97970601I asked him, you shut up, faggot.
>>97970605
>>97970625>how are those things that wouldn't happen in older editions?I am speaking mainly from 5th edition experience, so maybe you have experienced different, but older editions were a lot lighter on objective play. Each mission having objective markers in 10th and the random tactical objective card each turn mean you move around a lot more. Moving a model that had rapid fire in 5th meant you couldn't shoot further than 12", so you really would just hunker down.Plus as much as I love sweeping advance, it did mean a lot of combats were just one and done.
>>97970611none
>>97970605This isn't 40k anymore, this is why people keep saying "marvel slop"
>>97970645
>>97970663It's space marines fighting big ass robots, it's very 40k.
GW nuked Archie's Forge, God forbid you try to give some flavor to your Marine slop
>>97970588The intent was to try and add grooves to make it look like a large intestine, I’m pretty shit when it comes to sculpting, need to work on that at some point
>And here we see specimens of the Thousand Sons in their natural state of getting casually destroyed by their loyalist betters.
>>97970672Very nu40k sure
>>97970684nu40k is having marines fight exclusively against chaos
>>97970674It's still up, plus there are a dozen of other people making great bits.Give it a few years tops and you'll even have actual good space marine adjacent stuff that GW can't strike down because it's both not a rip-off and actually has personality/direction.
>>97970688Nu40k is about marines being heroes and fighting is spectacle. We are football. We are the circus.
