april collage submission
We ran out images in previous thread so I couldn't post

I started only today, not intending to take part in collage initially (in fact that's my first try). Not sure if I succeed at portraying it correctly, but suddenly got a simple idea for a Kroot of all things being disgusted at having to eat a stinky Space Yiff, that's how disgusting he is. I got to use a nigger head which wouldn't be useful to me otherwise, stiff kroot pose which annoyed me in other projects and a failed recast of a marine body.

Greenstuff is still somewhat workable lol. Way overdid sand on a base and tribal markings especially look bad, missed spikes on his arm and now I can see that gun on his back got dirty too. But I worked on him enough for today, that's how he will have to look like on the collage. I'm happy with how he turned out ultimately, especially given that weirdly stiff pose and a failed recast.

Despite both having iron in their name, the Iron Warriors use it to mean "having a backbone and grinding down the enemy in BROOTAL siege warfare" while Iron Hands mean "I am a nerd and I am hacking your mainframe".

Importantly is that IW have a cool colour scheme, cultic troops like the Mutilators and Obliterators and other shit while the IH have zero of their mentioned in lore stuff because where Chaos Warriors have a free hand to basically have WACKY shit having the Heretic Asstards keyword and usable across different warbands, the nature of the imperium is that you would need special detachments and keywords for the IH stuff or even a codex supplement that allows you to mix and match robot parts which are otherwise just cosmetic upgrades.

In particular while Iron Fathers are basically techmarines, the Iron Father is also a straight up cyborg while technamrines just like doing IT work. So there is no 1:1 between Warpsmiths and Warsmiths like there is for CHAOS, while Techmarines feel like a phoned in generic toy meant to appeal to kids. All the Iron Hands specific units are named characters and Lol at spending 50 bucks just to have your hecking special boy on the field.

Also their colour scheme is kind of lame and if you spice it up it's difficult. Like primed white with a metallic overcoat then blakc but with a drybrush of necron compound on top to pick out and shiny-ize certain parts.

the thing is the canis helix is degenerative, so Kroot might outright refuse to eat it/shapers might warn against it because they can smell when DNA would cause the kroot to evolve into fucked up berserkers. This is also why Kroot don't eat chaos marines.

Remove Imperial and Chaos Knights as playable factions.
Remove all other titanic units from the game
Remove all fliers from the game (those with hover modes can be reworked and remain)
Remove all Primarchs from the game
Remove Custodes as a faction
Remove Grey Knights as a distinct faction; relegate them to Imperial Agents
Optionally, the above removed units/factions can be used in a separate "Apocalypse 40K" game system
Standardize how Space Marine chapters and Chaos Marine legions/warbands are treated (ie. both should be supplements to a main Space Marine or Chaos Space Marine codex or neither should)

>>97972389
I never participated in those threads, just not something I cared about or was interested in. But I can tell the biggest issue was people just went off the rails entirely really fast, which just killed the project.

Also, at least to me, it does also kinda of prove that the whole "older editions were better" is partly due to nostalgia for many. It's the "best edition ever" because it was the first edition they ever played, which means it holds a special place in their heart.
But my main point is that, if 4th edition was as good as the people claim, then they wouldn't feel a need to fuck with it in the first place. They would just play 4th edition.

Also it's just a bit grim, because I've seen this thing happen twice already, and it failed both times. 1st was Fourk and 2nd the 4E Battle Bible.
Just goes to show that /tg/ no longer has that spark to it.

4th (well 3.5 with 4th rulebook and the later 3rd and earlier 4th codexes) is genuinely the most fun the game has ever been for me. Playing 1500 points with like 2 HQ, 1 Elite, 3 Troops and 2 Fast Attack or Heavy Support or so.

I started in 2nd which has its own charm but only up to maybe 30-50 miniatures and even then is a bit clunky.

8th with indexes has a similar vibe but you're simply never going to get nuGW fans to break their excitement for the churn.
>>
>>97972450
With how much focus epic hero type characters are to some armies nowadays that's basically mandatory if you want to be invested in /yourdudes/
If anything GW should make Tau more viable on big point games without the need of named characters being involved
>>
>>97972450
That's how it should be.
Named characters should just be a variant of a base character with special rules/wargear.
Characters shouldn't be locked to subfactions.
Back in 4th/5th this was not just normal, it was how it was meant to be as the designers said so and did it themselves, I remember one entry of WD at the time (~2009) having a Aurora(?) painted Cato Sicarius on the second page.

>>97972450
It's fine. Nothing wrong with liking a design of a named character, but using it to make your own thing. And arguably those people are keeping more to the original spirit of 40k, ie. coming up with your own stuff.

Yeah, it'd be better if there was a cool model kit for a generic Commissar Lord with tons of bits and weapon options, while also having good generic rules + datasheet to choose your own wargear for your own special commissar lord or whatever, but you gotta make do with what you have.

>wraithguard-sized character
The problem is that wraiths are canonically in a fugue state when they get ripped from the infinity circuit and put in a construct. That's why Spiritseers have to accompany them on the battlefield; somebody has to tell grandma's ghost where to shoot. The rare exceptions are usually just put into Wraithlords/Wraithseers, because why would you waste such a powerful soul in a lesser construct?
>>
>>97973024
Unfortunately no. All the third party ones are over sexualized. I don't hate the censored clothes because it makes them less sexy, I hate them because they just look fake and breaks immersion, like it's obvious GW only dressed them that way because of public opinion. I want ones that are true to the setting - naked, but raw and real, not safe for parents and not pin-up sex doll garbage.

Various canon depictions of the The Inquisition and how fans interpret them have made me question my sanity. The Inquisition can't sniff out Genestealer Cults nor Chaos growth for decades if not centuries but they can sniff out a small whiff of "sounds kinda heresy" leading to "kill them all, they're phonies" in mere minutes. Sometimes Inquisitors are psykers that can read a mind without much a of a fuss, other times they fuck up and kill a guy before they get the info they wanted. They are the most retarded, paranoid assholes ever and other times infallible with their logic and reasoning. Some are nice and let populations of humans chill without Imperium meddling as long as the tithes are paid. Others will burn whole continents because a handful of nobles said some silly things at a private party. It's infuriating because trying to bend any kind of Imperium regime rules leads to faggots acting like Inquisitors, dictating what is and isn't allowed in the setting.
>>
If it was written in 3rd or 4th edition it's canon.

If it was written in 1st or 2nd edition it's canon unless it got retconned by something from 3rd or 4th.

If it was written in 5th or later it's only canon if it doesn't contradict anything from the above and maintains the same tone. If it even has a slight whiff of being retarded nulore, just ignore!

These are the simple rules to enjoy 40k lore.

The state of notrepentia stls is so frustrating. There's some kind of retarded mind virus that has spread between anyone who tries. None of them even try to emulate the old aesthetic. A lot of them have giant 90s Super Mario Bros Movie boots for some reason which makes no fucking sense as it's not part of the original design so they can only be stealing it from each other for some reason. A lot of them are also far too "heroic" looking instead of being the bdsm slaves/penitents they're supposed to be. The one stl I found that's even close to the old design is only a single one off sculpt and not a full unit.

I was imagining the character would be used as a more offensive alternative for wraithguard squads, specifically ones that take d-scythes, or wraithblades. Is it dumb? Probably, but its certainly better than my other idea of jetbike wraiths which completely defeats the purpose behind wraith units.

Early on, Abnett didn't know much about 40k, so his early novels that people recommend as entry points into 40k (for strange, strange reasons) are basically just generic military scifi with a 40k skin thrown on top (early Gaunt's Ghosts) or generic investigation thriller IN SPACE (Eisenhorn). Or generic military scifi power fantasy with a 40k skin thrown on top (Brothers of the Snake). He's a good writer, yeah, and established a lot of things, but those novels established a trend of "treat 40k like generic science fiction in BL" among BL authors for years (look at the Cain books for example). Abnett's later/modern works are darker and more in-line with the original setting, it just took him a while to get there, but those books people still recommend? They're the source of "reasonable 40k" a lot of BLfags have in their heads. You want BL novels that are actually in-line with 40k as a setting as presented in the sourcebooks? Read Peter Fehervari instead. Or even fucking Ian Watson.
>>
>>97973609
>generic investigation thriller IN SPACE (Eisenhorn)
Please enlighten us how a story of a puritan inquisitor being stalked by a daemon to the point he falls to chaos himself to be rid of it whilst staunchly maintaining he's not a radical is generic scifi. There are so many things that happen in Eisenhorn that are pure 40K, you have read it right and are not one of those just jumping on the Abnett hate bandwagon?
>>
>>97973609
>Read Peter Fehervari instead. Or even fucking Ian Watson.

The Imperium has lasted orders of magnitude longer than any entity in human history, under far more hellish conditions. Grimdark fags can claim whatever they want, that doesn't happen if the system isn't actually insanely well-engineered and very functional.
>>
>>97973660
Eisenhorn himself seems...a bit too relatable compared to Draco, for comparison. He's an inquisitor, but is portrayed like a space detective who slowly breaks bad instead of someone who determines the fates of billions of people (Draco comes across this way, too, but he's also a fucking weirdo with an alien mindset). Not to mention that Eisenhorn novel excerpts are the endless, eternal source of "WELL AKSHULLY, MOST IMPERIAL WORLDS ARE QUITE NICE AND COZY, JUST LOOK AT GUDRUN IN XENOS!!!" so I kind of hold a grudge for that alone.

Not him but you don't get it at all. The Imperium has survived mainly through sheer weight of momentum from just being so absurdly fucking large that is has near infinite resources to throw at problems, and yet even still it is always described as decaying and dwindling, bit by bit, year by year, planet by planet. It is the last redoubt of humanity dying an agonizingly slow death, and it's canon that in the end it will fall, even though it may be so far off in the future that we never actually "see" it.

No, you're showing you don't get it. Increases in size and complexity makes systems break down quicker and easier, "infinite resources" makes the problem worse precisely because it's so easy for everything to immediately go tits up from one tiny distruption. You can't survive anything from "sheer momentum", especially not under the kind of pressure they have to deal with.

Inquisitors are at their most fun when they're being drawn more down to earth to act as Detectives or Judges or Spies. I don't really care when an Inquisitor condemns a planet of a billion souls to die on a whim because that's just over the top grimdark shenanigans. It's not really the scales of their power that interests me it's the kind of individuals an Inquisitor has to deal with. An Inquisitor does need some actual proof on record to explain why he executed a Planetary Governor or some other Inquisitor is going to call bullshit.

I'd sort of agree that Abnett's depiction of the Imperium is a lot more benign in it's presentation of the decadence and dictatorship, but that's just sort of a necessity to explain why his generally likeable characters actually think it's worth protecting.

No of course they fucking won't, it's a theme of the setting, the imperium WILL decay and rot and die a slow death and/or be caught in an endless cycle of torturous decay followed by reprieve followed by further decay until everyone is fighting with fucking sticks and stones, trillions and trillions of lives being born and dying, their souls joining the tortured chorus in the sea of souls. The galaxy is hell. The afterlife is hell. There is no peace amongst the stars. Only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.

The system doesn't function. It's not a functioning empire. It's a fucking feudal institution that has lasted 10,000 years due to the sheer momentum left by its insanely rapid growth spurred by what is essentially AN ANTICHRIST. WHOSE CORPSE IS SITTING ON THE GOLDEN THRONE AND STILL RADIATES IMMENSE ELDRITCH POWER. As long as the Astronomican is lit, the momentum carries forward - the feudal institution stagnates, decays, degenerates, and simultaneously loses whole worlds and gains new ground every day, like a writhing colony of maggots infesting a massive carcass that still has meat on it. But it won't stay lit forever. The maggots will run out of meat. The light will die. And all the maggots can do is rage against it. We just won't ever see it. It's called an overarching THEME, anon.

If it doesn't function, it collapses into a million pieces and gets overrun in a weekend. I know this is hard for retards to understand, but the ultimate proof of whether a system works or not is how it handles pressure and the pressure the Imperium has held up under for longer than anything in human history is beyond insane. Empires in our world can't stand up to the regular wear and tear of entropy for more than a few hundred years.

I wouldn't expect that a retard like you could grasp this, but you don't make a system more resilient by adding more interdependent parts.

In the great crusade there was an Ork horde that bloodied three full legions and their primarchs so badly the Emperor had to bail them out personally. On a separate occasion, a warboss choked the Emperor like a pimp chokes a hoe. Then you had all the nonsense with the War of the Beast...why are 40k-era Orks treated like a joke?

It's not an actual empire and hasn't been since the Horus Heresy, and it's not hard scifi.

Do you get upset at the impossible proportions of power armor? Or the impractical design of Imperial vehicles? How about the aerodynamics (or lack thereof) of imperial aircraft? The fact that lines of infantry charge each other with melee weapons despite it being inefficient? Do you complain about an official, canonical source stating that 80% of Imperial Worlds have hives on them? Do you complain about the in-universe logistics involved with hive worlds? Do you throw a shit fit at Chris Wraight's description of agri-worlds? Do you take dick up the ass?

Exactly as I stated earlier. You're too stupid to grasp that the Imperium exists under entirely different conditions than our world and works entirely different. It isn't one planet. It has different technology levels. It has different unifying pressures. You don't understand anything half as well as you think you do. You are a typical Dunning-Kruger redditor type guy.

that’s cause the orks went virtually uncontested for a while and were able to build up strength enough to have numbers and experience to fuck up primarchs. after the imperium dealt with them, most of the remaining orks were far weaker and needed to build their strength back up. this wouldn’t be a problem IF after the Horus Heresy and Scouring the only major threat left wasn’t the orks. this meant the imperium didn’t give the orks room to breath and were on their asses 24/7 with only the occasional break to deal with small scale rebellions, CSM raids, and xenos attacks. there is a silver lining (if GW gave a fuck about orks) theoretically, they should be getting back to something approximating great crusade strength soon because now the imperium has to worry about tyranids, tau, necrons, and CSM crusades which occupy their attention to allow orks the opportunity to grow their numbers and experience.

They often believe to some degree, but there are plenty of christians/catholics who take it all with a grain of salt and/or adapt the teachings to the modern day (as one should, literally the purpose of the homily). Plenty of them see hell as not so much of a literal brimstone and fire place but more of a metaphor/idea for punishing bad behaviour, or something along those lines, and there are those who don't really believe in a definite judgement day. The fundamental christians, spawned out of the bible belt of the US take everything very literally and are the sort to act like the shitposter here, he is emulating a fundie.

No. You're confusing lukewarm cultural Christians for believing practising Christians. Both Orthodox and Catholic teaching is quite clear that hell is a real place. So was Jesus.

I think you're applying the secular irreligious cultural view of Jesus being someone who came to tell us to treat each other well and be nice and good to one another. Which is not who Jesus was nor what he actually said, despite what popular non Christian culture has warped his message to be.

Every single Christian who believes in the words of Christ believes in hell, because it wasn't an ambivalent or vague in the words of Jesus himself.

Then they don't really believe in Christianity, which is ultimately an apocalyptic doomsday cult that went mainstream. The concept of Christ returning and a final judgement is, as >>97974053 said, kind of an indelible part of the religion.

Eldar have a large range of models, many of which are new sculpts, and canonically have multiple different color schemes in the army.

Yeah he's not fundamentalist, in the way you see it. But I think that kind of fire and brimstone person hasn't really existed in significant numbers since the early 2000s, the Harry Potter schism kind of killed that off in mainstream culture.

Also fundamentalism as you see it absolutely unequivocally did not originate in America (or even while Christendom knew America even existed) but that's not really relevant.

To be clear I'm not approving of that other guy saying you'll go to hell for being gay or whatever, just that I do have Christian friends who take their religion quite seriously and also play 40k. That exists.

It's not satire but it doesnt need to be to just casually poke fun at something. I would claim games like TC are a stronger and more direct jab at religion to the point I would call them offensive but 40k does treat it's religious cults as some of the more absurd, unreasonable and over the top parts of the setting. Try comparing the average portrayal of a guardsman or space marine to that of a mechanicum engineer or whatever bullshit latin name they gave to that sororitas unit that im really struggling to remember at the moment
>>97974084
Hell is a choice, not a punishment. It's the next to total abscence of God and order and it's a state of existence one's soul can only reach by trying your very best to dig yourdelf into damnation, ofc some denominations dont believe in purgatory but I think it's pretty silly to assume most people are completely christless and choose to be completely christless when one naturally will gravitate towards some aspects of their nature that can be seen as christian inevitably

Yeah Trench Crusade is 100% blasphemous and incredibly offensive for both Christians and Muslims. Also poking fun at religion and being directly blasphemous are two different things as you yourself pointed out. Not all religions are equal, nor are all religious practices equal. While 40k does borrow a lot of Christian aesthetics, it's not insulting, mean spirited or most importantly blasphemous. Unlike Trench Crusade, which is incredible bad taste.

I dont really see why space marines would be doing that on a regular basis, sounds like a voidsmen job if anything. Marines are far too valuable and high priority to get thrown into missions to the middle of nowhere (because why would anyone send pilgrims to an already populated place) with barely any clue as to the scale of the threats present and if geneseed recovery is gonna be possible. Also marines that usually venture too far off into the far reaches of non imperium space tend to get corrupted way more easily

Imperium isn't functional at all.
It only survives through sheer momentum it garnered during the Great Crusade. Ever since then it has slowly faded.
Also nevermind that it is a canon fact that the Imperium is losing more and more planets and territory every year, and that the stagnation is only getting worse and is slowly choking humanity to extinction.

They have mechs that allow you to play in any sort of way you like to play with mechs. You have your large protagonist gundam mech in the riptide, you have stealthy information warfare mechs and in stealth suits and ghostkeels. you have the coldstar which is the most asthetic and best possible commander model. you have crisis suits if you want to spam mechs with different types of load outs. (more like power armor than true mechs though). and then you have broadsides and the storm surge if you like big gun platforms.

And to support it you can either add good quality light infantry, hover vehicles or alien auxiliaries. All which support in different ways to cover mechs weaknesses. Other factions might have more true mechs, or more unique gothic style mechs. but tau definitely have variety. Its just don't expect too much in the way of melee ability for your suits.

One of the more /m/ related things that I enjoy about tau is magnetizing the crisis suits since swapping how weapons are configured is a lot of fun.

Mez did make a video showing him converting the model.
The head on the original CSM lord is pretty fixed in position so you need to do some snipping work.

The head he used for the night lord is from an AoS kit which he mentions in the video too.

technically this is both the worst and the best of times

it is an unprecedented time of new models, recasts, scans and third party alternatives for both models and rules
warhammer is popular enough, and wargaming too is popular enough, that's more possible than before to prod a gaming group to try an alternative ruleset or older edition or house rules, and no matter the niche stuff you're into, now there's someone at least remotely catering to your tastes, be it extra edgy grimdark, old school styles, or very specific lore snippets

it is the worst of times only if you slave yourself to GW's breakneck spiral of simplifying rules, rising prices, and weird company arbitrations

use gw as another tool in your box of bits, not as a subscription or identity, and you will have a blast

As an actual /grog/ it is an interesting time, take for example >>97974536 >>97974656 which look like fantastic modern miniatures to me.

But the churn is so crazy, and the accelerated scale creep, that they are already old news, rather than hanging around for 20 years like some sculpts. Whilst in like 2007 the Bitz Catalogue meant you could ring up and order a freshly cast Rogue Trader plastic Rhino and some Rogue Trader era metal Marines.

But yeah it feels like people just clamour for new stuff constantly and GW is happy to make them queue online for it to sell out. Which is crazy for what's meant to be a miniature wargame.

The imperium existing for 10k years despite being so stupid, short sighted, self destructive, corrupt etc etc is the plothole the whole setting is works off of. With any logic the Imperium bascially implodes on itself straight away and each plantary governor only pays the tithe when a massive interstellar army from one of the many arms of the burecracy comes knocking. Of course those tithes dn't go to the Imperium at a galatic level but into the pockets of whoever coolected it to enrich and empower that branch to compete with the other branches for who controls crusade armys, like Roman leadership trying to control their wayward legions but at a much bigger and more complex level.

seconding stripping it. doesn’t look like you’re that far ahead anyway, so its not really worth the trouble.

It's a problem GW created with Primaris when they told the customer that everything before 8th Edition was the wrong scale.

I kind of want them to just have a completely silent stream and they just dump the box contents out on a table and have a camera on the pile for the next hour.

Use Matt varnish to tone it down. Use red mixed with a darker colour to tone down areas that receive less light.

Is it a dick move to bring anti tank like a gladiator lancer to a 1k point game?

Nta, but my biggest issue with freehanding is having a brush with a good sharp tip.
I guess I could put some paint on the tip of sharp pencil, and the use it to make an outline of the shape I want.

Wait, that was for a firstborn unit. Quickly, insert the memory stick that memoryholes older units having cartoony names.

I need some tutorials or something. Does anyone have any recommendations?

other than for learning certain techniques, I find that you will improve simply through repetition than trying to learn through a video.

post your models so we can see if we can give any advice.
and if you post that fuckass image of the yellow csm I’m going to be really upset.
>>
>>97975465
Something gay, lame and retarded and when you point out it is any or all of those things you will be called a fake grog zoomer nomodels nogames secondary tourist by a 40kg poster who started in 9th and has only been posting it for 2 years.

Why the FUCK does this restriction exist
I'm already paying a soup tax based on not having any synergy or stratagems for the daemon
But also I'm supposed to field shitty Horrors that are 140 points of fucking nothing for every Tzeentch unit
This vexes me

Don't forget the followup discussion where the same person will misuse the term grimderp and say the setting must become generic military science fiction because they're a faggot and redirect the entire general towards a dumbass reheated conversation about "LOOOOORRRRREEEEEE," then they'll call you a tourist for copying and pasting the 40k intro text crawl verbatim. Seriously that shit has been happening this entire fucking week over and over and it's the same fucking poster, I just know it
