>>98010921>What's your favorite Xenos faction?kroot
Let Chaos idols take this thread!
>>98010921that looks like mantic
>>98010921votann don't even look like that outside the bolter, and even then it's weirdly done
>>98010925do you ever fuckin sleep
Number of Kits for Sale by faction:>Space Marines - 185 kits>Guard - 67 kits>GSC - 67 kits>Eldar - 66 kits>CSM - 59 kits>Orks - 54 kits>Tyranids - 48 kits>C.Demons - 48 kits>Tau - 46 kits>Necrons - 45 kits>Custodes - 41 kits>Sisters - 36 kits>Deathguard - 34 kits>AdMech - 33 kits>TSons - 31 kits>I.Agents - 29 kits>World Eaters - 29 kits>Votann - 23 kits>DEldar - 23 kits>Grey Knights - 22 kits>Emperor's Children - 22 kits>C.Knights - 21 kits>I.Knights - 20 kitsVotann are still one of the smallest ranges in the game and are definitely not a full faction yet.
>>98010921Orks. Closely followed by Dark Eldar. Kroot also have great lore and cool models, but not so much that I'd want to start another horde army.
>>98010921>TQEldar; I just like elves.
What do I think of the new orks?
>>98010921>TQDark Eldar followed closely by Necrons. I love the old crumbling ancient empires. Craftworlds get an honorable mention but the Commorites are just eBay more interesting.
>>98010976>GSC - 67 kitsGSC have 24 units. The store page just lists all the guard kits they can take in one detachment that nobody uses.
>>98010991Yeah, sorry, all the numbers are a bit wonky and I didn't want to individually check each one. Eldar probably has Ynnari Drukhari in it. Space Marines might include Grey Knights. Chaos Demons might have AoS stuff in it. Knights probably lists the same kits multiple times under different names.You get the idea though. The point was just to show Votann are definitely still a small range compared to most of the armies available for the game even after their big second wave.
Where faction focus?
BIGBOUNCYBANSHEEBUTTS
>>98010921pisses me off the inner circle box doesn't have Watchers.
>>98010978Seriously, James, how much harder would it have been to make this instead of that glorified bang bus?
>>98011004Tyranids today right? They only released the guard one early yesterday because they fucked up and accidentally made the YouTube video upload public like twelve hours early before they switched it back to private. But everyone had already copied the contents everywhere.
>>98010974yes :D
>>98010976
owo owo ugu
>>98011021and they let you build a regular lord of change too, pretty cool.
Of all the Xenos sub races which ones would you say deserve expansion and attention?
>>98010990I don't remember a single instance in lore where necrons and dark eldar go after each other. Bad guy vs. wacky guy seems like a cooler matchup than the Boring Elves but it doesn't seem like deldar or necrons care at all.
>>98011021Congrats on your AoS army anon, hope your LGS allows 40k legends rules
>>98011026I'm happy that you're happy, but that's been a dual kit since release
>>98011013>>98010976Space Marines only seems like such a brutal mogging when you think of them as a single faction which they are not. They're a super faction with five or six different armies under that umbrella. (Let's be real, Ultramarines is a supplement army in all but name.) Now the core codex space marine army is still huge but it's not THAT much bigger than all the other ranges. Filtering by something like Imperial Fists shows they only have 84 kits. Which is still the most but not a crazy amount more than Guard or Eldar or anything.
>>98011021>>98011026Kill yourself retard
I like orks :D>>98010921>TQorks orks orks
>>98011033What kind of shitty store and players don't allow legends rules? kek
>>98011033And i hope you finally enter an lgs
>>98011031DEldar have the problem of not really having good reasons to ever come engage with ANY of the other factions other than because they want to. And mostly what they want to do is raid poorly defended Imperial worlds.
>>98011005SEX WITH JAIN ZAR
>>98010976>votann were a mistakein other news water is wet
>>98011030>from completely random to straight up wrong images or factoids for most of the entriesat least talk about the aliens you do know about
>>98010976they're tied with Dark Eldar, who were a starter faction
>>98011039eldar are 68, and this includes "the detachment nobody uses" (anymore) with ynnari showing in almost 1/3rd of d-eldar range
>>98011030I think one thing that would be interesting would be a race like enoulians allied to tau. all the current races in the empire have reasons to be wary or fight against humanity, but there’s no race yet that has experienced genocide by the imperium of man, and now has a burning hatred of them and is dedicated to bringing destruction to the state of humanity by any means necessary.
>>98011030Kroot
>>98011030Slanni should and I believe will become new faction like Admech, Votann or GSC. Hrud can be one of their units, as apparently they worship them or somethingImperial Agents Xeno equivalent should exists. Functionally it would be Kroot army + friends, usable as allies by Tau, Drukhari, Votann etc. Tallerian Kill Team should go there, just like Sslyths when they return refreshed and other unaligned minor xenos like ZoatsI still crave a proper Grey faction, which Fra'al can be used for.
>>98010987You like them enough to put them up your butt hole.
>>98010921>What's your favorite Xenos faction?OrksI like Eldar and Dark Eldar though
Will we be able to take wrath of the doomed along with lost brethren? Surely they won’t both have the “doomed” tag, right?
>>98010921Greenskinz, Grot specifically.>>98011030>No GrotFuck you and the chart too.
>>98011046Don’t they need to harvest people or tau for biomass to make their clone bodies or something?
>>98011030>Of all the Xenos sub races which ones would you say deserve expansion and attention?None of them.
>>98011085Votann were a good idea badly executedMore dwarfy design elements, more boxy silhouette, more interesting lore, and they could have fit in well
>>98011151No.
>>98011085I will never forgive James for merging MoI wirh shitty dwarfs.

>>98010976>>Space Marines - 185 kitsnow remove the characters
>>98011169Is significantly more of their range made up of characters than the others? Because CSM is like half characters too.
>>98011169why?
>>98011053Sexo, mucho sexo señorita. Ayayay andale andale
>>98011169Disgusting.
>>98010921>TQGSC/nids, kroot second.
>>98011163These are fitting for votann though
>>98011030Demiurg would be nice to see expanded. Would give Leagues another potentially cool color scheme for their units.
>>98011173
>>98011169>all these weapon-specific squad types when Devastator squads can fulfill the same jobs with just one box
>>98011037I know it's a dual kit on its own but it's my first big ass box so I wasn't sure if the sprues were the exact same, and it was described as Kairos everywhere.
>>98011195Understandably, have a nice day.
>>98011030Army of Sslyth+Zoat? Reptiles in space
>>98011030Slaugth are cool but I feel like GW would be more likely to package them as a 30k expansion if they did anything with them and the rangda.All the dark eldar auxiliaries should have plastic releases as a new court, and give rules so you can mix and match to make 4 ssylth courts so I can buy four boxes and scalp the 12 extra models to idiots.Tarellians+Barghesi could be a cool kill team aligned with chaos and tau.Zoats are coming back, period, for kill team. Same.k'nib could be a cool weird ally for the eldar.>thraxiansIs this invincible or something?All those 'fledging empires' are just tau/kroot/vespids+I would also say Vespids should get some actual shit. I WOULD SAY Q'orl since they're an actual galactic power, but since they haven't been officially mentioned in 20 years they're probably dead, so give me a Vespid Swarm Leader and a Vespid Sting Tank and split the Vespid team into melee and guns so I can do a little Krootlike thing.Nicassar would also be cool. Thinking about one of those Lotr Bears that look all fucked up as a proxy Nicassar to just hang out with Kroot, if I ever make a Kroot army. I think Tau are gay, of course. Demiurg are literally just Votann so just let Tau use some Votann.>SlaanBring back the rules that let you upgrade lizardmen with Guns adn run them as slaan like in Necron 3e codex. Yu'vath is like Q'orl (apostropes) and I wish they got some buildup but GW seems to hate them.Loxatl is another 1-off that should be Dark Eldar allies.Bring back my niggas the jokaero.Enslavers are not aliens they're closer to daemons. Have the dark eldar capture one and use it to fuck up psykers.>HrudIronically this one has the most 'potential' for its own army since there are multiple 'hrud' types including the rat and are worshipers of the god known as Qah, so naturally you can throw the Umbra in as allies/objects of veneration. Hrud also weirdly get mentioned as a major antagonist, despite being not on the tabletop.
>>98011030sslyth but thats mostly because they touch on two bases I like (dark eldar and snake people)
>>98011202>Reptiles in SpaceYou mean lizardmen?
>>98011030I like the Hrud because they're true aliens, not a fantasy race and not an anthropomorphised animal. Also they have weird scary time powers and that's cool.
>>98011173You can check there, out of 120 actual kits only 47 are units, and 11 of those are some special chapter's reskin of another unit, and over half of the rest are some other unit with a different gun
>>98011210>hrud aren't a fantasy raceThey are ratmen. So no, they will never be added.
>>98011169where scouts?
>>98011190It would make sense as, like, one League tried to solve their genetic problems by integrating alien DNA and it made them a little weird
>>98010976I keep seeing people say that Space Marines especially Ultramarines are the Mary Sue faction but it's not true. The Mary Sue faction are the Necrons. You all know it to be true.>You see Necrons can't be defeated as they're super, super old and have super advanced tech that was able to subdue StarGods so they're achskully completely unkillable because they can simply rematerialise in if you kill them also they can reanimate and necrodermis which means they can reform so...they're unkillable check mate!>Also...Also!..Also! they have this super duper space weapon that is like a map, but a map of all the stars of the galaxy and they can blow up entire stars if they want to just by using this map! they are so super duper stronk!
>>98011220in what way does a hrud look like a rat?
>>98011224"Mary sue" doesn't just mean "overpowered".
>>98011224Don't forget the Tyranids ignore them so even everyone else gets wiped out the Necrons still rule the galaxy.
>>98011224The celestial orrery is the only real wankfest in their faction, the rest is easily shown to have its limits.
>>98011220
>>98011237Kek
>>98011030Assuming we are talking lore and not the very dumb idea of trying to do a full tabletop faction, I'd like to learn more about the Khrave.
>>98011210The time e powers guarantee they will not be added to the table top. Armies like Guard and Tau would just die form being near them and I don't think James could come up with viable balanced rules for dealing with their time fields.
>>98010976I like the theme of the votaan. A neo-corporate entity relying on an every expanding inefficient excel spreadsheet as their de-facto God sounds 40k.Unfortunately, the models give me AEUAEU JOHN MADDEN vibes.
>>98011175Spanish I can actually read.
These bioelectrical weapons became highly prized by the Imperium because they utilised charge cells and capacitators that were beyond the capabilities of the Adeptus Mechanicus to manufacture.One of the Xenarch's most notable weapons is the Xenarch death-arc, a rifle-sized weapon that unleashes a series of arcing bolts of lightning and then one massive current of electrical energy to finish off the target once they have already been struck.There was overall very little contact between the Imperium and the Xenarch empire located somewhere out on the rim of the galactic north.In 989.M41, Marshal Helbrecht of the Black Templars Chapter was responsible for the final subjugation of the Xenarch present in the Sigilare Nebula.>the imperium explicitly doesn't come into contact with the xenarch unless actively going into the halo stars hellzone to fuck with them
>>98011113plot twist- it's a futanari
>>98011005I do this to my wife and she has the same reaction.
>>98011259
>>98011122tau and eldar have literally had billions of their people exterminated by humans, they just kind of suck and don't make a huge deal about it.
>>98011245>at the start of each turn, roll a D3 for each enemy unit within 6" of one or more units with the ENTROPIC keyword, on a 2+, that enemy unit suffers that many mortal woundsso scary
>>98011259I just assumed the bulge was huge pussy lips from centuries of use.
>>98011122>but there’s no race yet that has experienced genocide by the imperium of man, and now has a burning hatred of them and is dedicated to bringing destruction to the state of humanity by any means necessary.tarellians
>>98011222>>98011190What votann need is a terrain piece with a giant votann head
>>98011231I'll add to that the list of bullshit that is the Necrons.
>>98011148greenskin subrace, would be like adding exodites or chaos eldar to the chart.
>>98011278that would look better if the face was painted like a hologram or a fluid mass of nanomachines instead or a rocky statue, that way it would justify better the tacky cigar
>>98011272Did I be very useful for multicharges.
>>98011231Necrons won't get their mortal forms back if the nids accomplish their goals. They'll be robutts forever.
>>98011282or like adding races already under the tau and dark eldaroh wait
>>98011247I like their models, I get "tech built to survive a bomb" vibes
>>98011292>literally not able to tell the difference between -alien race- and -tau, fire caste- and why that kind of subrace would not be listedAre all grotfags so retarded?
>>98011259That's even gayer.
so rumor is new Battlesuits next edition.GW has gotten so much better at designing robots since the old Battlesuit kit was rolled out 25 years ago, new Battlesuits could be insanely sick
>>98010921Orks. They’re a great and classic barbarians at the gate kind of faction. I wish they had more range. I wish they were more cyber techno-barbarians rather than mechanical techo-barbarians in theme but with the same ad-hoc on the fly feel to their tech where nothing is standard.
>>98011300you listed demiurgs, and those are just a human subraceyou also added two pics of slann and two pics of squats and mistook a khrave for some other shit amongst the other inconsistencies
>>98011259>>98011113theres no tits, its literally just a twink with long hair bros. boys cant be hot too dudes.
>>98011113Repulsive, can't believe this shit gets left up and random model posts are removed.
>>98011330>RandomFuck off decalpedo
>>98011330Fuck off mutant.
>>98011287Only some of that Necrons want their living bodies back.
>>98011324>too dumb to realize I'm not the person who posted the image>too dumb to realize whoever posted that thought tht demiurg was a separate alien race (the old lore)>still shitting your pants and crying about your mascot character race
>>98011330KYS decalmutant
>>98011348Yeah, it's only few necron lords that want it.Rest of the populace is entirely mindless and don't even have souls anymore.
>>98011030Need to be updated with the new tallerian, votanns and barghesi.>>98011190Demiurg are votann, that's why some of them have the craggly skin
>>98011353>>98011343>>98011339How do you know that's who you think it is?
>>98011325could just be a flat girl with a dick.
>>98011375because they are terminally online freaks.
>>98011350>knows the image is wrong and inconsistent >defends it nonetheless and insults anyone expecting betterway to go, cucko
>>98011375Because he hates eldar and types like a cartoon villain
>>98011163>merging men of iron with men of stonesThey should have done like eldars and let you run both or separate
>>98011324Nigger, the chart says MINOR 40k races, I'm sorry you don't feel like a special snowflake because Orks aren't a minor race but if you feel that way maybe they should be squatted after everyone paypigs on the new sculpts.
>>98011379>girl with a dick.
>>98011330kill yourself you redditor faggot
>>98011392Just remember I'm the primary and you're the nomodels.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98011375Because he can't help but bring up gay shit he does and try and brush it off as normal.
>>98011406primary retard of this general, I agree
>>98011390both kroots and demiurgs have more kits and representation than grots have ever had
>>98011424Good.
>>98011391>>98011406what other thread are you shitposting in?
>>98011417Im the one pointing out the gay shit someone else posted you fat idiot.
>>98011311I love mechs but theres something about the tau ones I don't like
>>98011300that poster in particular is a lost cause, hes in every thread wanting a grot army. havent seen any models posted by said grot enthusiast yet
>>98011432Lol, you looked at something gay, fag.
>>98011437They're a bit blocky and I find the small heads kinda stoopid lookin.
>>98011440You were almost certainly born prematurely and underdeveloped.
there, stop complaining that your scrimblo bimblo glup shitto regiment doesn't get support, guardchuds.
>>98011424Grots are walking cumrags, they're not their own race.
>>98011443meant for >>98011432
>>98011194>with just one box>James starts foaming at the mouth
>>98011444>scrimblo bimblo glup shitto
>>98010921Females are what ruined Votann and if the models came with only bearded male heads I feel like they would get far less hate here.
>>98011444I love that the term glub shitto exists.It's a perfect term to describe for a "literally who?" retard character/thing that nobody cares about.
>>98011468what if they came with bearded female heads
>>98011444>support>it's the same metal sculpt from 20+ years ago sold at a premium
>>98011443Maybe, but I am certain that your crack whore of a mother drank and smoked while your were still cooking.
>>98011311As long as they aren't shaped like strawberries on legs, it'll be an improvement.
>>98011479How about we try and keep things on topic today okay? Thanks..
>>98011478Say "Thank you".
>>98011462you do not belong
>>98011456>heavy bolters>missile launchers>lascannons>grav cannons>plasma cannons>multi-meltasGranted you have to buy repeats to kit a full squad of just one weapon, but I am a little surprised that Gravis is getting a repeat with heavy bolter-esque fuccbois.
>>98011486
>>98011444>scrimblo bimblo glup shitto regimentThis term does not apply to anything that has actual fucking models you complete retard secondary. It's for the random nobody outfits only mentioned in lore.
>>98011486Ok, stop talking about fag shit and getting banned and I won't have to bring up your slaaneshi cultist reject of a mother :D
>tfw havent painted anything in 2 weeks
A certain chinese reseller has the celestians for 20 bucks a kit and I am doing everything in my power not by 3 of them and have them just sit on my shelf for 2 years.
>>98011516>2 weeksit's been 4 months for me
>>98011487I'd rather pay 5k for someone to redo all the miniatures individually to modern standards than pay for overpriced shit from a billion pound company
>>98011511I don't know why I expected reddit of all places to show some backbone, w/e who cares stop posting it.
>>98011487"Thank you for nothing, now die"
>>98011521>only needs one>so he's going to spend AHHHHHHHHHHWHY DID I SELL IT FOR ONLY 75 BUCKS WHEN IDIOTS ARE PAYING 120

>>98011511>>98011577He in fact could not handle it.
>>98011577How are these posts on topic in any way?
I wish mods would nuke both the lolcow and the milkers.
>still no nid faction focusDead factionDead editionDead game
>predator is rumored to get squatted>joytoy releases predator toyPlease let them be squatted, it would be so fucking funny
>>98011590Except Im not doing anything, they are just posting random reddit comments to derail.
>>98011594Don't you like everything taking weeks and weeks just for a few crumbs of meaningful news? Sure love how the game is handled lately.
>500 Worlds: Titus>The Maelstrom: Lair of the Tyrant>Eye of Terror: Reign of Iron>Armageddon: The Return of YarrickWere they good? How do they stack up against Arks of Omen, Psychic Awakening, and Gathering Storm?
>>98011594Turn where the single worst addition to the game. They have been hideously overpowered dating all the way back to 3rd edition.
Isn't it the second time vostroyans get a MtO?
>>98011610Is time for an update.
>>98011553I mean 70 bucks for three kits is better than 120 for one thats worth 40, no?Even if its resin. And sisters make AMAZING kitbash fodder.
>>98011615Sorry, the Steel Legion folks cried hard enough that they got moved up in the timeline.Vostroyans can't get anything new until the war is over. Same with Kislev.
>>98011604Tyranids have been a <40% win rate faction for longer than they've been a >50% one
>>98011594Baal was a huge focus on nids, and they are consistently portrayed as galaxy ending threat. Unless you mean like... making them overpowered in game. In which case who tf cares whats overpowered or not just use the army you like the most.
>>98011553the insidiants went up for sale already?FUCK
>>98011615They'll rape them to bits>>98011620>mad he can't cry hard enoughDon't be jealous, they're gonna look fucking ass
>>98011622Back when rending was autowound one 6 to hit i remember seeing multiple armies of genestealer spam and I rarely seen those players lose a game.
>>98011516could be worse, you could be painting the same three models for two weeks.
>>98011627I just want to see my new rules, man, I don't care if they're good>Baal was a huge focus on nidsBaal is the biggest example of a fumbled bag of storytelling in modern GW history, the entire conflict got relosolvd with "and then the nids disappeared because of chaos or something and guilliman also showed up with 500 morbillion titans and also an entire legions worth of primaris reinforcements lol"I don't mind the nids ultimately losing (they were always going to) but the ending of Baal is actually insulting to both them and the BA
>>98011577KEK so do they just keep him around as a joke or what, even the other wolffags hate him.
Genestealers feel hamfisted into the nids and should have always just been their own weird thing>aliens who fuck humans and take over from within>aliens from without who eat you and recycle you
>>98011660Nta but he got banned a while ago, this is a falseflag
>>98011604>Nids>Hideously overpowered since 3rdWhat the hell kind of local meta have you been playing in? Did you forget during the entirety of 6th and 7th really the only seni-viable build for nids was spamming as many twin devourer flyrants, hell even in 10th they've still found ways to struggle against the rest of the power crept codexes.
>>98011660
>>98011667>NTAlmaoYou admitted to making a new account not too long ago nigger, nobody is falling for that
>>98011620>Vostroyans can't get anything new until the war is over. Same with Kislev.how the fuck has this stupid war been going on for 4 years already. It seemed like it was going to end in 2023 or 2024 and then it just kept going. Fucking stupid shit.
>>98011671Alan is honestly the perfect character to represent that retard.
>>98011659Blood angels are supposed to suck and Tyrannic war vets are one of like three things actually 'unique' to the ultramarines that makes them not totally generic roman blue good guys.
>>98011169When will White Scars, Iron Hands, Ravenguard, Deathwatch, Salamanders, and Imperial fists get love?
>>98011665You have genestealer cults as an army and can play tyranids perfectly without fielding any genestealers.The cults calling for alien invaders is a good connection between the two and it would be weird if the xenomorphs faction couldn't field the xenomorph ripoff.
>>98011668My local meta consists of:5 Marines4 Orks3 Guard3 Tyranid2 Necron1 Eldar1 Dark Eldar1 Tau
>>98011673That's not me you idiot, I don't know what he's talking about. I already said its my account.

>>98011444>Bro just pay 800 bucks you cant complain anymore
>most sang guard relics were lost during the devastation of Baal >11e starter set implies despite these loses Bangles still have access to older equipment mks What do you think of swapping the tacticus jump pack on sanguinary guard with “relic” mkvi jump packs to give them more sense of prestige?
>>98011684>xenomorph ripoff.I do not remember the xenomorph being a fat bastard who fucks cute anime girls to make lots of ugly mutants with them, I remember it being a sleek chestburster that laid eggs in your tummy to make more of its kind. Seems like "ripoff" means "not really similar but okay" nowadays.
>>98011668Nids historically have been polar, almost never really being "mid">2ndDoesn't matter everything both sucked and was overpowered>3rd and 4thExcellent, top tier armies especially in 4th>5thHorrendous outside of one hyper specific Doom of Malantai build that folded to a single krak missile>6th and 7thAs stated, horrible outside of the flying circus which folded against anything that held objectives>8thWent from horrendously overpowered with hive guard spam to low tier 45% win rate when they got gutted>9thOne of the most powerful codexes ever printed, needed emergency patched to not have an eldar-tier win rate>10thThe first "mid" edition for the nids and even that still tends to hover around the lower end of an "acceptable" win rate
>>98011699I think anything to customise your army and make them your own is a good idea.
>>98011682deathwatch will get a dedicated terminators kit and a primaris hero in parallel with astartes2, otherwise they'll stay as a thing within imperial agentsthere are no plans for white scars, raven guard and iron hands, gw expects you to be content with the generic marine kits and the few special characters imperial fists will be rolled together with their successors in a black templar codex that expands to accomodate the others the moment dorn is to return after russsalamanders are being considered for a full scale fleshing out with a range of models akin to the space wolves and their returned primarch, but not soon
>>98011691anyone who uses terminology like "lolcow" and the like are complete and total losers.
>>98011699I think the current sang kit is something I'd only use to make vets and I'd rather get good at sculpting than use them.As for the powerpack, picrel + wings optional
>>98011702They were sued over 4th edition tyranids, and for a lot of cash.
>>98011471a vtuber I was watching used it when she was playing lego star wars
>>98011702>I remember it being a sleek chestburster that laid eggs in your tummy to make more of its kindthat's genestealers too
>>98011715I believe the first ridley scott lawsuit actually happened because of the 2nd edition Hormagaunts
>>98011716>a vtuber I was watching
>>98011715>>98011718This is the earliest Genestealer patriarch model and the art is from 1989 please tell me how this is similar to any kind of xenomorph my obnoxious "everything 40k has came from dune!" anigos.
>>98011715>They were suedSource?
>>98011659I thought the nids got a good showing and made both sides look cool. Whole marine chapters got devoured heroically. It was pretty peak.
>>98011718>THE GMSo non-canon rpgslop, not sure why I even replied since you are clearly retarded.
Mentally prepping for my army to get squatted again when the 11th edition ruleset drops.
>>98011727Have you read the text in the image?
>>98011727that patriarch is so fucking cool
>>98011712I think I like these more than cannibalizing a mkvi assault squad for their jump packs. I also think I prefer sanguinary guard without wings at this point
>>98011725
>>98011735What book do you think that is?
>>98011737You're not getting squatted anon! You're just getting rolled into the Agents codex
>>98011729It was cool and they did both get to look coolBaal is great if you ignore everything even tangential to the great rift
>>98011665>Genestealers feel hamfisted into the nidsNot at all, they are extremely niddy, you are fuckin dumb
>>98011750AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>98011725Weren't you the one posting furry porn?
>>98011703Cheers for the right up, I missed out on most of 4th so my main experience with nids was between 5-7th were it was a general struggle to build a neutered list against my opponents so that we could have a close game.Most of my local nid players either left or changed armies after Index hammer in 8th so I completely missed actually playing against 9th ed nids, and now these days it kinda feels like I'm back to playing against nids back in 5-7th Ed where I'm actively helping my nid player friends try and build more powerful lists because the codex was an edition starte.
>>98011743Regardless the wings should be separate for transport
>>98011690>I already said its my account.Hey you know what I'm genuinely curious here - how are you not ashamed to show your face here after pulling that shit?
>>98011760No but you knew that.
>>98011716which vtuber?
>>98011739hmmm yes vampires in space, very very Alien vs. predator, every single thing forever that is an alien that fucks human women is the Alien, xenomorphs literally own this concept.
>>98011767So was it porn but not furry or was it furry but not porn?
>>98011702In the Rogue Trader core book genestealers implanted an embryo that bursts out of you. They were literally just a xenomorph expy.The whole cults thing with the inbreeding hybrids emerged after space hulk, and that was also when genestealer had been visually redesigned to look more like Tyranids, because internally it had already been decided that they were Tyranids and it was hinted at in the space hulk lore but not fully revealed until it was time for the Tyranid models to come out.There was literally never, ever a point that Genestealers had cults but were not Tyranids.
>>98011749>staying on topic when arguing about genestealer cults challenge: IMPOSSIBLE

>>98011865I thought this general was being harsh on you at first, but this is extremely delusional anon. I think you’ll be happier if you drop this and return to trying to maintain some sense of anonymity. Maybe try painting new models and taking photos of them with a different backdrop when you post here.
https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/pqhie6ax/warhammer-40000-faction-focus-tyranids/Nid focus is up, that one anon can stop complaining
>>98011890I didn't ask for your help, talk shop or leave.
you don’t have to engage with or discuss namefags. you can just post models and talk about the game. I was more excited about the detachment combining system before they started revealing them. >speeder detachment: very narrow buff that affect the turn 1 deployment of 4 datasheets, 3 of which are just wargear variants of 1 model. I really hope this is not the standard for the 1 point detachments game wide
>>98011899Finding out all of these are 1DP is pretty cool. Need to see what combos we can make.
>>98011899>Remember, in a 2,000 point Strike Force-sized game, you’ll get three Detachment Points. This means you could take all three of these new detachments together, or bolt one onto many of your existing Codex detachments (most of which are 2DP) to create all sorts of powerful and thematic combinations.Gladius going to be 3DP
>>98011901Nta but please go back to r/spacewolves. You have no peers or peeps here. The last collage proved that.
>>98011911>you don’t have to engage with or discuss namefags. you can just post models and talk about the game

>>98011947Agreed, about time.
>>98011867>LIMITED
>>98011899>Nerfed WBO>Made it 1 DPIt is... Acceptable.
>>98011899Oshit CSM *and* Daemons? What could it mean?
>>98011956Daemons are getting legended. They don't mean actual daemons.
>>98011948You don't have to post your diary submissions here creep.
>>98011959Actually it's a captain's log.
how popular are these action figures? just saw a post about some guys nephew busting his. I thought most people in this fandom are in it for the painting.
>>98011945you can get your space dwarf tanks elsewhere
>>98011955What did they nerf?
>>98011956>>98011926Probably going to reveal 1point detachments for each branch of daemons, making them a CSM thing and quietly squatting the army itself.
>>98011973The 5++ doesn't get extended to gaunts/gargoyles that primes can be attached to anymore
>>98011971kek I saw that post too, I mean they are cool but I can't see myself ever owning one.
>>98011946We should’ve gotten hrud as a faction by now
>>98011983It reminds me of the big roach from MIB the first one.
>>98011911I like to think of it as the 2 point detachments more broadly affecting your army and the 1 point detachments allowing you to specialize further and focus on a unit core to your list.
>>98011983there are no good ideas or designs for hrud units other than the basic hunched ragged thing with a rifle, and that's something gw already does with admech, ash wasters and eventually with darkmek
>>98011974Kek you wish, I bet it will be a single Be'lakor detachment for all daemons and that's it.
>>98011971>I thought most people in this fandom are in it for the painting.This has to be bait
>>98011737bruh just run em as marinestheir stupid gimmick is so easy to stop
>>98011971The people with the action figures are not the people with the models.It's funko pop collectors and casual secondaries.
>>98011971You can enjoy two things at once, for some autists this is a hard concept.
>>98011992>you could have a wide variety of shapes and sizes of hrud given that we have both the skaven-like hrud and the swamp monster cephalopod hrud that are both canon>umbra are heavily implied to shards of the Hrud’s god, Qah, so they should be fighting alongside the hrud >we get all those vague descriptions of the Hrud’s bio mechanical armor and technology in that one Iron warriors novel>GW can just make up new stuff for themThere’s more than enough to work with to make an interesting model range for them
no way
>>98011994>Be'lakor detachment for all daemons and that's it.It would make sense of they made the word bearers detachment for csm the one dedicated to a mixture of demons with undivided marines.While the god legions each get their own god-specific demons detachment and the other chaos warbands get no demon at all because gw is writing them all to be in denial about their chaos faggotry
>>98011971The figures are fine, they're not the greatest toys ever but they are McFarlane so the sculpts are generally good.
>>98011971I’ve gotten some of the McFarlane figures as gifts from relatives before, and they’re neat enough for what they are at that price point. I have no experience with the joytoys but they look decent enough where I might consider getting a emps children or night lords marine if they ever come out with one

>>98012043>"The aliens, previously stealthy ambush fighters, now came at them en masse. They deployed larger weapons, and warriors in suits of scabrous living armour, and strange things that may have been machine or flesh or both.">"The cannons turned from the vehicle onto the legionaries, ripping them to shreds as parts of them were displaced in time. Warriors fell, fused with the remains of others as they were shunted thousandths of a second along their own time stream and out of synchronicity with the planet’s motion. Screeching hrud warriors appeared from folds in the air, each wielding twinned blades of light that smoked with entropic dissolution. They flickered and leapt from place to place, the munitions poured in their direction hitting naught but thin air, or wasted by the beings’ native time fields before they could detonate.">"Weapons fell to pieces as they encountered hrud blades. Warriors speared by unearthly swords exploded, their bodies forced into impossible shapes. Others aged backwards, flushed with vigour for a second, before dying in agony as their bodies gorily rejected their implants.">"More hrud advanced from the shimmering curtain, and these were all of the soldier-caste. Strange lights surrounded them, and odd, flexible-limbed walkers staggered in the midst of their throng. Half of these bore strange, bulbous cannons, and they advanced to range and set themselves squarely into the ground, opening fire not many metres from the edge of the light curtain.">"The migration ships came next, weird agglomerations of plated fungal matter, so far as could be discerned through their null-time blind shields. Hundreds of these slipped through the Legion picket fleets ringing the subsector."This is their tech from the pre heresy era so things could be different in the 41st millennium

>>98012138>"‘The city,’ said Forrix, who was watching everything from the main deck level. He gripped the edge of the rail about the hololith projection pipes. He stared up at his master. ‘The entire city is moving.’ Gugann trembled on its axis as the hrud capital warren broke free from the bedrock. Blinding veils of white light propelled it upwards, pushing the impossible mass into orbit using the substance of the world as fuel. A sea of magma boiled where it had torn itself from the ground. Still the Iron Warriors fleet rained fire down onto the surface, opening up more wounds, but these were mere puddles of fire compared to the ocean the hrud themselves had gouged into the rocky flesh of their world. Teardrops of lava plummeted from the underside of the capital warren. ‘That thing’s the size of a continent,’ said Forrix. ‘My lord!’ called up an astropathic liaison. ‘I am receiving word of similar breakouts at Jupor, Hranenen and Voltis.’"

>>98012275When they give all the alien mercenaries back to Drukhari and add some more. There's like seven different species mentioned in their codex.

I'm surprised that hellguns / hotshot lasguns are just lasguns with slightly better AP
>>98012350Explain.
>>98012138>they still lost
>>98012313>will never make models ofIt's so funny how you guys say this after they expanded Kroot with numerous units, updated Vespids, released new Ur-ghuls and an Ambull and a Zoat for Blackstone Fortress, and then just recently a Tarellian dog soldier and a Barghesi. Oh, and did an entire army release for the Votann with successive waves.They are running out of things to update for the main factions, and it's only a matter of time before we are getting back to back releases of things like Exodites and Dark Mech. Thinking Hrud won't come eventually is fucking delusional since as of now, everything in this pic >>98012319 has gotten a model (if you consider top left insect head as an early rendition of Vespid) except the Hrud and the jellyfish thing.

>>98011971Enough for Joytoy shitting out a large variety of them between 40k and 30k. It's a funny spot when it comes to people who play the game, since they could just buy more models.
>>98012378I believe in 2nd Hellguns were Strength 4, and in some later edition they were S3 but AP 3 or something crazy like that.
>>98012378Weren't hellguns AP3 in 3rd? They definitely were in 5th.
Hellgun was such a better name than "Hot-Shot Lasgun" why the fuck was that changed
>>98012374anon, the tarellian, clawed fiend and ambull were one off models, not really a good basis for your delusions of hruds becoming a faction
>>98012394because hell bad mkay?
>>98012357You sure?
>>98012397And the Kroot and Necron were entire ranges and the Vespid a full unit at least.But most importantly, the Hrud keep showing up again and again in the lore as large forces with militaries and different units and weapons described.
>>98012412>And the Kroot and Necron were entire rangesthey were already planned at the moment of that image, the image was a tease for those two specifically, even though they weren't totally accurate because they were still working on them, but they already knew they were making them
>>98011224You've got to remember they are an ancient race from the most destructive war the galaxy ever saw, its like if the krork were shoved into stasis and were waking up slowly. They are nerfed because of the long sleep a bit but lore wise yeah they are generally one of if not the strongest faction in the setting in terms of technology
>>98012412>But most importantly, the Hrud keep showing up again and again in the lore as large forces with militaries and different units and weapons described.Not really, no, their one exceptional outing was the horus heresy one, every other time it's just them scavenging and sneaking around as small groups.
>>98012426Sure but that still doesn't invalidate my point. GW has continually released things based on this art, from the Kroot/Necrons of 3rd to the Clawed Fiend in 5th to the Tarellian Dog Soldier in 10th. They were clearly looking at it again recently. Is it that hard to believe Hrud are in development? They brought the fucking Squats back.
>>98012378So in both 3e and 10e they got better AP over lasgun. What is the weird part?>>98012389Nope, it was AP5, same as bolters.>>98012387Hot-shot power packs gave the stormtrooper lasguns S4 (AP-1 was standard for all lasguns), making them effectively bolters in S and AP.>>98012394Hellgun was the change. 2e stormies had hot-shot power packs and hot-shot power packs are still a thing. In 5e "hellgun" was change to just be a nickname for hot-shot lasguns.
>>98012432Multiple codex lore entries since 8th edition have talked about massive Hrud migrations, it is not small groups.
>>98012239brother
Hrud could make for a good Kill Team release.
>>98012156>>98012410>only survived cause the Hrud decided to fuck offLmao
>>98012410>IW job to literal who xenos
>>98012440Aha, by then they were called hotshots, I'm not home so I can't check the codex anyway.
>>98012412>kroot flopped harder than EC>surely this means they'll keep making glup shitto xenos factions!
>>98012436>Is it that hard to believe Hrud are in development?yes, the things they have done from that image are one-off models, not ranges>They brought the fucking Squats back.the fucking squats had an actual codex with miniatures once and were requested by more than one random guy on 4chan
>>98012455Nah fuck it just give them a whole Codex and small range like Voties got.
>>98012432Hrud migrations are massive fucking deals capable of throwing entire star systems into turmoil
>>98012387>>98012389I think this is the 3.5 codex>>98012410Won the battle, but what about the war?The only BL I'll ever read is Boys Love
>>98012472>had an actual codexActually they never did. They had army lists in Rogue Trader and then one in the 2nd edition codex imperialis which was basically the "indexes" before factions got their own codexes. Squats were left out, they never got a standalone codex release before 3rd and at that point GW dropped them.
>>98012481I think you might be right, it's been a while since I've cracked open that book.
>>98012440> What is the weird part?The weird part is that it's only that. "I am surprised hellguns are just lasguns with slightly better AP" was the OP
>>98012275>>98012289>>98012339How difficult would a Pirate codex be to balance if they were to theoretically do one? Like taking a lot of low tier units from separate armies (just a throwaway example like some Kroot, some Votann and some Guards) that already have models available but could be used together in the Pirate ruleset as mercs, then introduce a few starter Pirate exclusives for their higher end/bulkier units? It seems like that would be easier to do than just starting a whole new Pirate army from scratch.
>>98012374All it would take to turn the Hrud into major players in the galaxy would be to go “Oh shit, Qah actually came back and the Hrud have been whipped up into a religious frenzy and are going on a crusade”
>>98012481Remember when your entire armies units AND weapons fit all their stats in one box like this?Modern 40k is such trash.
I bet hrud will show up in necromunda at some point
>>98012350>cawl cylinderIs that a reference to an older hotshot lasgun detail or are even the guard and other factions getting Cawl cylinders?
>>98012495Sure, or just say they've been taking advantage of the Imperium being weakened by the Great Rift and multiplying in numbers. Hell they're already more of a widespread issue than the fucking Tau and the Tau get a codex and model range.
Why are there people who pretend to care about the Hrud, they look so fucking stupid.
>>98012498>Remember when your entire armies units AND weapons fit all their stats in one box like this?I do, that's part of the reason why I looked at the hellgun stat since I wanted to do a nice table/spreadsheet with all weapons
>>98012509I don't know. Why do you comma splice?
>>98012509Sex. Look at female Tyranid players. That is what the Hrud are for.
>>98012509Because I want more weird fucking aliens in my "massive, mostly unexplored galaxy full of weird aliens" setting
>>98012394Could have been the Heckin Shooterino Carbino
>>98012504Listen I hate nu40k bullshit like no other but we can't just point at every round gubbins with gribbles and blame cawl, this is entering psychiatric territory
>>98012504Your brain on secondary.
>>98012500The only Hrud-related thing we currently have a model of is actually in necromunda right now. One of the terrain pieces they released has a Hrud Fusil on a gun rack.
>>98012509I hope that GW goes full nostalgiawank and makes hrud 40k not-skavens.Bonus point if they mix the worm thing with the rat thing
>>98012500necromunda would rather do actual ratmen instead since they are too scared of doing the more classical ratskins, already have rumors of mutant rats of unusual size capable of using tools, and of a long lost votann below the earth.Warhammer quest or some imperial or chaos retinue would be the place for a hrud.
>>98012394They were two different things, then at some point some retard mixed it up and then it was lost.A bit like storm bolter / combi-bolter.Hot shot lasguns were field modified lasguns for extra charge, while hellguns were made as is. You could have a hot shot hellgun.
>>98012532>Bonus point if they mix the worm thing with the rat thingYeah this is what I want. I don't just want "space skaven" because that's boring, but some subtle rat features mixed in with the weird worm-limb art from Xenology to make something new and weird would be cool.

>>98012190If you're going warpforged that's way too many robots.
>>98012542you sound like a faggot
Humanity in general should be more rat-like. And not the studies done showing rodents with altruistic behavior rooted in empathy, often prioritizing helping a distressed companion over selfish gains like eating treats. I mean the cultural depiction of rats. Btw, human history sucks, how can we get rid of it?
>>98012553Are you the seeting rat furry that gets mad as fuck whenever someone says Hrud should not be space skaven?
>>98012550Completely different, the new inquisitor's gun is biological looking, and is already linked to a named alien species.
>>98012524>>98012528Silly anon, we all know everything old I don't like can retroactively blamed on the nu. It's natural to create these categorizations to deliberately exclude parts of old I don't like. This is why when I say old good new bad, I group old that's older than when I got into the hobby into new.

>>98012557>please be my scapegoat I don't have an argument prepared if you aren't!
>>98012542GW can't do space skaven anyways because all of their schticks are already taken by 40k factions that don't have a fantasy equivalent.>Dark Eldar Haemonculi took the weird flesh-shaping stuff.>GSC took all the "huge masses of subterranean mole-people with drills and mining equipment".>Orks have the scavenged scrap-tech aesthetic in this setting.There's basically nothing left for them to stand out.Hrud on the other hand are all about this weird time-warping tech and chronofields and shit, which is at least something to go off of. They should not be rats because there's no reason to have any association with skaven since they are their own thing.
>>98012558Computer, pull up the name of the rifle>named alienDo we have minis of which? Because the demiurg were also another xenos, and then were folded with the squats.We may never get Hrud, instead we'll get "Jindarii"
>>98012592yeah GW NEVER releases new armies that are redundant of other gimmicks
>>98012573>>98012582>>98012586Lotta newfags (probably a lying samefag here too)
>>98012509New Xenos would always be cool
It's DEFINITELY the seething rat furry lmfaooo
>>98012601We need a xenos that appeals to the male fantasy for the female units and the female fantasy for the male units. So space minotaur men and horse girl women.
>>98012597>space marines>chaos space marines>imperial knights>chaos knights>imperial guard>traitor guard (soon)>mechanicus>dark mechanicus (soon)I don't understand the "redundancy" meme. That's not how GW works, that's how you work. You don't want X and you think X is too close to Y.But nigga, we got like 4 different space marine factions. Vanilla, Dark, Banana and small.
>>98012524>>98012528I see now.>plasma glow brightest at bottomWhen did this start becoming quite a popular choice for painters of plasma weapons?I prefer plasma glow to be brightest on bottom as a preference thing, but it seems like it blew up in popularity at some point.
>>98012598>look mom I'm using terms I heard but don't know the meanings of!
I am 100% convinced that the defiler actually officially being released is a psyops. They are literally sold out everywhere and ebay has them listed for almost double what they retail for. I'm convinced they just gave a couple to content creators and dumped the rest of the stock on ebay to normalize to it's true price when supply is limited. The fact these kits are selling for almost double on ebay means that GW are selling models for too cheap when people are still buying them anyways at inflated prices.
>>98012610Because the ribs are a heatsink, they'd be the coolest part of the gun not the hottest
>>98012596>Do we have minis of which?we have descriptions>The Jindarii are a sentient Xenos species of cunning nomadic and tribal bio-mechanical hunters.>They search for areas of space, that will serve as rich hunting grounds for their tribes. Once such an area is found, the Jindarii will consider it to be their territory and the Xenos will build their temple complexes there. The Jindarii will, however, strike outside of their chosen hunting grounds if need be. Their warriors are gathered into Oxalthixduls cadres, which frequently wield highly advanced armaments such as pulsar and needle technology, along with tox-cyclers. The cadres also employ guerrilla tactics, that utilize bold assaults combined with misdirection. These are calculated to manoeuvre and trap the Jindarii's enemies, before they are slaughtered without mercy. When a threat is beyond their warriors, though, the Xenos will begin a program to modify their highly adaptable bodies. The results of their experimentation and genetic manipulation will then be used on the Jindarii's most seasoned warriors to counter the threat they face. While each tribe has their own leader, one will command the entire species in times of war.
>>98012615Or hold on... maybe people just really fucking like this kit because it has a billion options and is actually customizable for once, and it's also OP so tourneyfags all bought 3 as well.When you make something popular with the hobbyist portion of customers and the competitive tryhard portion of your customers it's going to sell.
>>98012628>During the Age of Strife, they established a proving ground in the sub-sectors neighbouring Anvillus. When the world was colonized into a Forge World centuries later, the local Jindarii tribes became galvanized. They then began enacting frequent raids against Anvillus' Mechanicum enclave. While its Taghmata forces defended the Forge World, they stood little chance against the practiced guerrilla tactics of the Jindarii's Oxalthixduls cadres. Not only that, but the Xenos' advanced weaponry proved effective at shredding the toughest armour Anvillus could produce. In response to these failures, the Forge World created the Legio Vulpa to protect itself from the Jindarii. Though they were only a Demi-legio and not designed to combat infantry, the Titans of Vulpa successfully invaded the Xenos' hunting grounds. The Legio then attacked the Jindarii's temple complexes there, to draw the Xenos out. After a decade of fighting, Legio Vulpa was able to move their war against the Jindarii, away from Anvillus. While this allowed the Forge World to expand Vulpa's ranks, the Jindarii used their cunning and highly adaptable bodies to counter the Legio's threat. After then undergoing a program of experimentation, the Xenos' warriors were turned into gene-wrought constructs, that rivalled the strength and size of a Titan. While the initial Jindarii Titans lacked ranged weaponry, they compensated for this by having stealth and speed that was at odds with their size. The creation of these Xenos Titans would cause the Jindarii's conflict with Anvillus to last a further 70 years. During this new phase of the war, Legio Vulpa's military minds conceived and published the first edition of its Libraxus Tacticae Vulpa, the Legio's battle bible, which was heavily influenced by the hunting tactics of the Jindarii.
>>98011259I feel like what's in a dark eldar's pants would scare you regardless
>>98012633>The war's exact conclusion is lost to time, but the last recorded battle, according to Anvillus' records, occurred on Yythe. There, 32 of Legio Vulpa's Titans clashed with the Jindarii's Hyzebaru tribe on the moon. They were led by their Grand Matriarch, who had commanded the Xenos' forces against Anvillus for two decades. She was prepared to face Vulpa, as the heavily modified Matriarch now stood 43 metres tall and wielded weaponry that could destroy a Titan. This was not enough, however, and the tribe was defeated. The Grand Matriarch herself was killed, though not before she personally destroyed seven of Vulpa's Titans. Soon after Hyzebaru's defeat, the Jindarii near Anvillus withdrew for likely richer and less troublesome hunting grounds. After they left, the Forge World discovered a two kilometre line of Jindarii skulls, that had been left along one of Yythe's great rivers. Each one was engraved with a stanza written by the Xenos, which, when translated, ended with the line, "Here our greatest blades rest, firm in belief they knew death's art, taught instead by those who stalk beneath its shroud". From that day forward, Vulpa proudly bore the name of Death Stalkers as their Legio's alternative name.these definitely have nothing to do with the hruds unless you want to be truly delusional
>>98012615Makes me glad I own two of the classic, proper Defiler.
>>98012592This argument kind of sucks because it can be used to justify not having skaven in Fantasy/AoS either, which makes it not very valid.>Dark Elves already have beastmasters>Nurgle already has plagues>Dwarfs/Empire already have guns and cannons and vehicles>Beastmen already have animal people>Greenskins already have dirt cheap chaff
>>98012615Cattle who are willing to pay double the retail prce to scalpers cannot be considered "people".

>>98012656>but Votann have literally nothing original going on either.Moonrover NASA aesthetic, men of iron robot stuff, tough-but-slow army that isn't Nurgle.
>>98012609And the "Dark" space marine faction is actually 5 more redundant factions. Vanilla Dark, Wrath Dark, Magic Dark, Excess Dark, and Stinky Dark.
>>98012319I wanna hug a clawed fiend
>>98012651
>>98012656NTA but they're DAoT, they're Men of Iron and not the Tau style AI, they're a greater abhuman focus than Orgyns, etc
>>98012609>I don't understand the "redundancy" meme.it's hypocrisy, pure and simple.But he's right on gw not having any reason or desire for space skaven.Or hruds for that matter.
>>98012681>they're a greater abhuman focus than OrgynsVotann should have ogryns too.
>>98012609You can have "Chaos" and "non-Chaos" versions of things without it being too redundant because Chaos adds all its own weird spooky mutant evil demon flavor.What you cannot have is a xenos race that's 80% similar to an existing xenos race. GSC basically took Skaven's spot in 40k.
I believe in the Imperialization of Chaos is the ultimate goal of the Emperor and the point of the setting. The Emperor plans to rewrite all of the Immaterium into his image. Abaddon the Loyalist, his greatest ally, is secretly into this plan. This is why he chose the name Imperium Nihilius, to retain the name Imperium.Together, all of Chaos will become theirs. Khorne will wake up on his Golden Skull Throne, not realizing there's anything wrong. Tzeentch will be unable to shapeshift in any form but Space Marines. The only drugs going through Slaanesh will be performance enhancers for Space Marines. Nurgle's Nurglings have already started wearing human hats. The process has begun and cannot be stopped. Besides Daemons, all Chaos on tabletop is already Chaos Imperium. Eventually there will only be Chaos Imperium. Then there will be no Chaos without Imperium.It's already working marvelously. The poster children for Chaos are CSM who fight with Bolters, Plasma, and other Imperial weapons. No Chaos Xenos exist. Daemons will be squatted and soon all Chaos will be Imperium + Spikes.Chaos will become Imperialized. Just imagine what this means, the Immaterium composed of thoughts from countless universes, all being Imperium. This means across all realities, it's impossible to even THINK of non-Imperial things. This is the Emperor's goal.

>>98012797so they're called rudy?
>Dark Eldar>Rare faction to encounter>Units always sold outExplain
>>98012628>>98012633>>98012638This sounds a lot like 40k skavens. Tox, body alternation, temples, flees to better and easier places if fighting fails, guerilla tactics. Stealth
>>98012754Eldar are ancient civilization, they take from greece, asia, even africa
>>98012702Can I get some context for this /40kg/ lore?
>>98012813They don't make a lot of them
>>98012813Probably scalpers trying to stock up on the old models before the new ones come in and then old good new bad kicks in and people buy the old models at a large markup.
>>98012786>Alexander the Great drunk himself while scaring away his best men and fighting against an already dying and infighting empireNeeds more rape
>>98012814so you've chosen to be delusional
>>98012822tldrredditor secondary (real secondary, not just somebody throwing the word out as a catchall) who would always come and try to force discussion about whatever the newest BL book wasextremely obnoxious so people just mocked himgot a tripcode for a while, took it off when he was filtered by everybodyhis calling cards are rabidly defending abaddon's honor, talking about how X will totally change everything, talking about how the tau are totally a galactic threat and are about to conquer the ultramar sector
>>98012827Yes, I have chosen to believe GW will do something fun, knowing full well it's gonna be fucking shit and overpriced garbage kits
>>98012039>you can deepstrike lictors>some stratatems make you hit harder>some stratagems make you tougherWow, it's nothing.
>>98012827>the guy saying they're totally gonna make hrud as an army and if they don't it's a missed opportunity calling others delusionallol!
>>98012839I'm not whoever you think I am in another similar delusion.
Why don't Nids eat literally everything? Why leave hollow husks of planets?
>>98012849Why don't you eat the plate? Why don't you eat the fork? Why don't you eat your shirt?
>>98012834Nothing about that is anything gw is going to make and nothing about turning one of the few examples of an actual alien race in 40k into just space skaven is "fun".
>>98012853I already said yes
>>98012830Thanks anon!>Defending Abaddon's honorHasn't Daddy Abby been turned into ADB's edgy the Edgehog self insert OC now?>talking about how X will totally change everythingI know the Anchorite loyalist Word Bearer story will change "everything" in the sense that homebrewers who like traitor legion descended chapters will use him as a "precedent" for their guys.As if the Blood Ravens weren't enough.I wonder if ADB is still seething that he didn't make the 'first canonical' totally not traitor legion descended space marines.>how the tau are totally a galactic threatI like to imagine that the chaos legions only see the Tau Empire as just another "blessing" in the sense that they make the Imperium waste materials and manpower on the Tau so the chaos legions can keep damaging the Imperium. Then when Imperium falls they'll commence a mop up operation on the Tau Empire.
>>98012762GSC are basically done, they should get another new unit here and there but they don't need a big wave, I don't know why people keep pointing at them like they're going off 10 year outdated information.>Patriarch>Magus>Primus>Iconward>Abominant>Nexos>Clamavus>Locus>Sanctus>Biophagus>Kelermorph>Reductus Saboteur>Benefictus>Aberrants>Purestrains>Metamorphs>Acolytes>Neophytes>Brood Brothers>Atalan Jackals>Jackal Alphus>Goliath Truck/Rockgrinder>Achilles RidgerunnerThis is not counting ANY of the Guard stuff they can ally in. Sure a lot of these units are single characters but they're still powerful tools in many cases, half the space marine roster is various characters too.
>>98012853they were space skaven firstand far more interesting than swamp things that make you old
>>98012849That picture upsets many anons. I remember when they asked about Cawl reseeding planets but rather than argue feasibility and more, arguments I heard were>hur dur how there still rock to rebuildlike older lore didn't show a barren husk that isn't empty space.
>>98012849Because it's more efficient and fast this way.Because the leftover planet is used as bait for civilizations that come to investigate and get infected with genestealers the nids leave on purpose.Because so the planet can potentially be seeded with life in whatever multiple hundreds of millions of years are necessary, and the tyranids can go back to eating it all over again once they come back around this area.
>>98012865This is 100% the faggot rat furry no matter how many times he gets desperate and defensive and calls me a schizo while samefagging multiple replies to my posts lmfaooo
>>98012875>why do people always call me a schizo I just constantly attribute all of their posts to a singular boogiemanDo me a favor and look up what a fregoli delusion is
>>98012849Proportions of useful material. Why would you not take 100,000,000 extra space marine shoulder pads without the bodies and arms and helmets and everything else to put them on? Or 10,000,000,000 extra pots of nuln oil after your army is fully painted? Same reason.
>>98012849>>98012852Eat your mattress
>>98012865Nigga we're talking about the jindarii now, not the hruds, and even the hruds weren't actually skaven, they have been depicted as flat faced even in those instances where they had a tail.
>>98012881No one cares furfag, you're obvious as fuck, always getting extremely assdamaged whenever people say "Hrud shouldn't be space skaven" because you literally jack off to TWW skaven porn and want your fetish in 40k.
