Female marines when?
>+3" detection range>+3" detection range>+3" detection rangeI just don't understand how GW knows they will do a new edition in 3 years, we know they will doa new edition in 3 years, and we still end up with all-or-nothing mechanics like this which are 1) crazy boring and duplicated in every faction's design space 2) will either be useless or completely necessary. Why are they so fucking lazy with the rules side of things?
>>98115533>TQclosest game/hobby store is like 150 km away from where I live
saved from last thread
>>98115555I'm constantly surprise about how boring this editions are.The focus in this esport mentality has removed all the fun about 40k.
I like orks :D
Repostan my Knight from last thread for this month's Collage.
>>98115519>>98115524The goal of every WAACfag is to reproduce Magic the Gathering from first principles.
>>98115563Why does it feel like reading the info cards in a video game?
>>98115563Why do people dislike this? This is perfect. It's really clear. I know exactly what can or cannot be done with no ambiguity.
rules should be in poem formatrhyming of course
>>98115533>tqNot bad.People aren’t assholes.So it kind of puts pressure on me to not be the asshole.But then again I didn’t go to the lgs much.Mostly because I can’t find a good single case to store and transport a whole 2k-3k guard army.
>>98115573I bet AI formatted this. No human being talks or thinks like this.
>>98115533Thinking about starting an Alpha Legion CSM army. Do CSM have stealthy units like loyalist SMs? Loyalists have phobos, reavers, scouts, snipers, etc. but Im unaware of what CSM have
https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/x94potly/warhammer-40000-faction-focus-leagues-of-votann/The sagitaur one is passable, the others are dogshit. Hearthband has been gutted.
>>98115533>TQThe only current one in my city isn't even a year old. Overwhelmingly marines if not Imperium with a side of Chaos, but it's generally friendly. The only model kit stolen by a crackhead so far was an AoS one, and the owner only stocked it because of GW.>>98115573Either they are probably getting rules designers more attuned to video games, are intentionally designing them around people who play them, or like the other anon said, winging it with AI.
>new detachment>+1 buff to your favorite modelthis shit fucking boring cuh
>>98115572I think this is going to backfire heavily on GW. The WAACfag crowd from Magic is not going to want to spend time painting, and all the people they're attracting from videogames and youtube lore shit are D&D theater kids who hate complicated rules.
>>98115625new detachmentsame as the old one+0 buff to your favorite modelfuck you- eldar rules team
>>98115602Any legionnaire and or cultist unit can infiltrate depending on points level.Their other scouting can be in the form of turn1 reserves with beastmen. Deep strike en-masse with daemons/terminators etc among other units that are +reserves because of special rules.>can have a free leader model by turning another dude into a clone of your warlord
>>98115595But anon-San…Ai can be good because /3dpg/ talked and has shown images to 3d models.Now I can get stl recreations of models from official to passable third party remade into stl form.Especially the third party before gw whacks the producer of the passable third party stuff.I’m surprised Kromlech is still going.
>>98115588I use one of this and add some metal sheets that you can slide in a out.Depending on the kind of models and bases sizes I can usually fit 2k of GSC infantry in one or two boxes.Since I can add and remove levels I some times go and play with just the top and few boxes while leaving the rest at home
>>98115602You could reinterpret the Red Corsair Raiders as CSM trying to pass off as more loyalist marks, and Nemesis Claw as CSM trying to run disruption/distraction. The Alpha Legion is supposed to be the cultist one so you could also do that.
>>98115625It's not even a real +1 since LoV get "+1 to hit against models on objectives" as a faction rule, and this doesn't stack to eliminate the cover penalty because GW engineered it so only the Hekaton gets to ignore cover.The Kapricus is already getting a +1 to hit from Heavy if it only moves 3", the Yaegirs don't want to be within 12" because they'll evaporate, this really only benefits Pioneers.And that stratagem is ultra retarded. Why would I spend 1 CP to remove cover from a unit when I can just hit it with a Thunderkyn?
>>98115567>"I'm Roboute Guilliman and I disapprove of this message"
>>98115643Thank you anon.That might work.If it does you have damned my lgs to endure my warhammer 40k autism and inevitable chud slips because I’ve used this website for more than a microsecond.
Look at it go
>>98115668nice
>>98115662Run your IG as Black Templars for extra points.
>>98115668Cute. Now let me see it painted.
>>98115613Preview core rule blurbs actually have readable human format so the flowchart ones are probably app-specific.
>>98115577You are an autist, most people don't enjoy reading something written like it's for a fucking robot.Rules text should be easily parsed in conversational language, written as though your friend is teaching you how to play the game, using examples of fluff to explain what is happening within the context of the universe, not like a dense fucking manual for code monkeys in entirely abstract gamified rules jargon. Every edition this shit gets worse and worse.
>>98115691>>98115577That format is fine for a summery or a cheat sheet.Not for the actual explanations of the rules.4th and 5th are kind of the middle ground, having a proper separation between fluff and rules and some explanation before saying the rule outright
>>98115691>Rules text should be easily parsed in conversational language, written as though your friend is teaching you how to play the gameNo it shouldn't this is what leads to garbage rules and ironically WAACfag interpretations where people try to cheat to gain advantage.
>>98115707>WAACfagThose will happen regardless of the format.The solution is to bully them into suicide, not writing rules for AI chat bots
>>98115707>this is what leads to garbage rulesYou're retarded, the quality of the rule has nothing to do with how it is presented.>and ironically WAACfag interpretationsJust don't ever play with those people. It's that fucking simple. They are a detriment to the game experience no matter what. It doesn't matter how much you try to ruin the experience of reading the rules for everyone else in order to prevent them from being dicks, they will just find another way to be unpleasant to play against. The solution is not to write your rules like an inhuman autist that's never spoken to another human being before, it's to identify who those WAAC people are as quickly as possible and make them completely unwelcome.
>>98115613The Hernkyn one entices me since I wanted to build my army around Yaegirs/Pioneers already. It might not be great, but it fits the fluff I want for my army.
>>98115718>It doesn't matter how much you try to ruin the experience of reading the rules for everyone else in order to prevent them from being dickslmao>your too clear rules are RUINING MY EXPERIENCE
>>98115602Not quite in the same manner; the obligatory AL detachment in Deceptors has you infiltrate up to a certain number of Legionaries and Cultists only (as well as their leaders), so like 60 mortals and 30 MEQ in no man's land in a 2000pt game. That said, Red Corsair Raiders infiltrate as well, possibly diminishing the appeal of that detachment specifically unless you consider the idea of being able to infiltrate 60 MEQ in total. Mind that with cultists on board, that's roughly three-quarters of your points. Soul Link is a pretty cool enhancement too.Cypher also exists as an obligatory Lone Operative, you could convert some other idiot or impersonator in his stead. Apart from that, you still have a fair variety of deep strike units including Obliterators for sudden big guns, which you shouldn't skimp out on.You'd think they'd get something vaguely representing the Seekers/Headhunters of old at some point (the Alpha Legion pioneered the Sternguard predecessors), but maybe they'll do a thematic Kill Team in the future if they don't just do upgrade kits or Operators instead. They're popular enough anyway, one of the more played 30k legions as well since they actually have fluffy rules there.
>>98115613Hearthband will still be the same thing and cost 2 detachment points, all the detachments being featured in these articles are worth 1 point out of your max of 3 at 2000pts
>>98115720Honestly this is a good point, and I'm glad you're getting something out of these, but it is staggering how few of the detachments previewed for any faction stimulate the imagination or make you want to build a unique or themed army in any way. Especially compared to the subfactions and rules of yesteryear which were all about that.
>I want all of the models.Is it anticipation of getting new stuff or is it a problem?
>>98115676Pretty impressive given that the previous cadian shoulder pads are smaller than marine ones.I’d be even more impressed when seeing black Templar dkok and present cadians as their shoulder pads are even smaller.In all seriousness have any of you lads been discovered by your lgs to be a user of this site?How did you not get instantly banned due to this site’s reputation?
>>98115750Do you play a lot of armies or something?
>>98115757Can't decide what to buy.not looking for help of what to pick
>>98115762whatever you do, DON'T get Votann
>>98115762Pick guard because they have the most home brew room.And third party stls are common and stay up longer.
>>98115572What compels a human being to become a "WAACfag"?
>>98115755No one cares.
>>98115750>All the modelsBezos?
>>98115750I got a bunch of Armies. Just because I collect Eldar doesn't mean I want to go all-in on Aspect Warrior spam. Just because I collect Guard doesn't mean I need to buy Scions and Tauroxes. Just because I collect Orks doesn't mean I need to buy Beast Snaggas. Pick a lane in your army of choice and stick with it, you don't need to buy the whole damn range.
>>98115746That's not how they're supposed to work. You're not supposed to be picking units to suit the rules. You're supposed to be picking units you think are cool and then the rules facilitate them.
>>98115778Especially since a lot of it looks like straight garbage. It's never been easier to buy 40k responsively.
>>98115770They have nothing else going on in their lives and derive their sense of self-worth from being able to beat other people in a casual beer-and-pretzels wargame that was designed for narrative fun rather than competition. It's extremely sad.
>>98115563More for ya
>>98115778>>98115789almost the entire eldar range looks amazing
>>98115794
>>98115762If you mean the upcoming shit, then most if not all of these will probably still be sold for years to come.
>>98115744nope the rules of hearthguard coven are word for word hearthband
>>98115795It's not that I don't think Aspect Warriors look good, I would just rather spam Wraiths instead even if I know Spirit Conclave is one of the less good detachments.
>>98115802
>>98115811
>>98115795yeah eldar are one of the better ranges
>>98115810use vehicle blocking to full effect for the best results for them (D) guns
>>98115795Aspects, Seers, and Corsairs do at leastThe older stuff still looks pretty jank. And that's before getting to the Drukhari stuff.
>>98115811I was just bringing what was in the previous thread. The book comes out soon I think right?>less than 1 month
Has anyone come up with decent paint schemes for eldar corsairs? I hate the official one, and can only find a handful of them online. I kinda want them to look bright and was thinking about a turquoise+orange combo but I'm not 100% sold on that
>>98115771Santiaguino culiao
>>98115795Whoch part? I think Clown are far better than Corsairs/Craftworlders
>>98115802I might actually get an Arkanyst now.
>>98115737They aren't clear, that's the issue. They're precise, but extremely dense. Reading the rules is part of the experience of the hobby and the hobby is meant to be fun. Old editions understood this - you're obviously too new to know, but reading the rulebook in 2nd or 3rd was never exhausting or unpleasant it was actually fun to do on it's own, because the writers back them were wargamers with soul who cared instead of the homunculi hired by modern GW from the tournament crowd. Reading the rules isn't supposed to feel like a job you have to get out of the way first to start having fun playing the game. If that were the case then rulebooks wouldn't have lore blurbs and art. In fact if you prefer it like that why even play with miniatures? Just use tokens with the unit names written on them.
>>98115795Nu Guardians, Rangers, and especially Warlocks look like ass, and most of the new Aspect updates were lazy and mid.
>>98115831There are lots of official and homebrew corsair schemes that look great. I'm going with black, purple, and magenta, but orange and teal look great too.Try looking at the old codex schemes if you want more inspiration.
>>98115744Hearthband was a grotmas detachment so is gone.
>>98115809>>98115857gay and cringe
>>98115802Oh, so the unit as a whole gets mortals, not the specific model?So my 5 plasma shooting ig unit lives to shoot another turn?
>>98115857Grot Kill Team soon trust
>>98115861Lol that's so retarded.
>>98115831I do like a shiny deep blue/turquoise, good mix of dark, alien and regal.
>>98115861>the squad is playing hot potato with their plasmaguns
Started a new job recently. Explained well in advance about my condition. Had a nice talk with one of the mental health officers there, but it made me a little upset (as all discussions about problems like this do). Other employees noticed I was upset, and I was sent home early to 'get some good sleep'. Got a call two hours later that I had been let go on the basis that because it was a temporary position, "they would manage it themselves".Faction for me?
This is how I Eldar corsair
>>98115880Emperor's Children because you sound like a gay faggot.
>>98115848>[LIE]
>>98115880>get some good sleep anon, bye>stacy, fire that guySue
>>98115880Night Lords, you are a loser, anon, better lose with style.
>>98115880why would you tell your employer about your mental health condition? you're there to get money and gtfo
>almost finished with my marines>completely paralyzed as to what army will be my next>want to do 1KSons but it will take forever to do 30+ infantry with how slow and careful you have to be with the trim>want to do Votann but I'm afraid the way the models will be set up it will be really hard to give them proper greenstuff beards (the heads are sunk deep into the armor for the terminators and regular troops)>want to do Sisters but honestly the faction doesn't look very fun to play with how gay and RNG miracle dice are and how they lack weapons above S10 without using knights
>>98115892These models are very mid. Proportions are weak, helmets lack detail or interesting geometry like older Eldar helmets. I remember when these models first got released the comparisons between them/nu Rangers and the Ranger girl from Blackstone Fortress and her model blew them out of the water.
>>98115892Sex with Ranger on the bike
>>98115613good thing campaign book ones stay unchanged, my ass will be sitting on Mercenary till new codex arrives I suppose
>>98115902>want to do Votrannysyou are lost.
>>98115880Make an army out of cheap shit and use Wahapedia on your phone/pad, explain to the players "You just want to try the game before you buy into it".Then come onto /40kg/ and complain that they're all WAACfags like you've been here forever.
>>98115902>almost finished with my marines>completely paralyzed as to what army will be my nextYou know you can just stop at any point, right?
>>98115854>old codex schemesCan you recall the edition? Was it 4th edition?
>>98115902>guys I just finished an army of marines>do I do evil marines, girl marines, or midget marines next?Wow you're really branching out dude
>>98115905You mean the one off character model is more detailed than cheap ranger units? wow...
>>98115902>Finished army>don't know what's nextA break.What you can also do, on top of the break, is pick up a kit or two of those factions you're thinking of getting. Something like 1 HQ & 2 troops, or simply 1-2 kits. Getting a small hands on with each is gonna help you choose your next move.
>>98115770Remember when you were a dumb autistic teenager playing vidya and kicking ass in it to the point of being believed to be a hacker and feeling great satisfaction out of it?It’s for that kind of high.Except you have nothing else going on in life for a variety of reasons and few are justified.I was like that as a teenager and those warhammer 40k waacfags are like that but never grew out of that phase. They chase the high over others like you wouldn’t believe.Somehow worse than when they were on the vidya game stage.Because the trash talking is only because nobody is face to face.But I am sure most warhammer waacfags will shit talk face to face.
>>98115613>scout 6" is back
>>98115905BSF ranger looks like a transvestite pole dancer, it's a hideous sculpt
>>98115771>no one caresIs it because this site has become a lesser evil compared to the big boy social media sites now?I’d imagine local game store autists would be very concerned if fellow 40k autists used this site because autism but maybe you’re right.
>>98115902Maybe you should thinking about future-proofing your space marines before calling them finished. Ya know, before prices jump 30% before you decide to future proof them 5 years from now.
>>98115880>Had a nice talk with one of the mental health officersAny company with one of these is destined to be gay, retarded, and dystopic. Also 99.999% it was a woman and you 'ick'ed her.And if you have something so crippling that you basically can't work without everyone walking on eggshells then you should be spending your time trying to get state assistance instead of torture yourself working with normalfags. If it isn't, then suck it the fuck up and learn to mask.Your faction is Votann because no one cares about you until you remind them you exist (after which, they forget again)

>>98115942>Literally written by ChatGPTFuck that's exactly what it is. The little bullet points and sections.
>>98115949For the miniature?
>>98115929Porn has rotted your mind beyond repair, I pray for your salvation>>98115938The AoSfags tried to warn youThe HHfags tried to warn youYet you didn't listenSeems you've met with a terrible fate
>>98115938This reads like Yu-Gi-Oh cards. What a vomit-inducing experience.
>>98115943You could always subscribe, get the two minis, sell the one you don't want, and upload the content online.
>>98115957Buy someone's regret purchase instead of giving GW money for something that should be free in the first place.
>>98115942How do you lads tell when something is written by AI?I mean images can mostly have giveaways but I can’t be too sure now.It’s gonna get worse.But at least I’ll be able to generate stls so that’s neat.
>>98115938It's literally as clear and legible as it has ever been.>>98115942>>98115954>the structure developed for clarity in writing by humans over the course of 800 years means ChatGPT wrote itThere is no fucking hope for the future at all.
>>98115933Future proofing marines is like trying to make a hurricane proof house out of sticks. The faction that gets a conga line of new and units, new rules, and a billion balance changes is going to look very different 3 years from now. May as well jump ship to something that's a lot slower to change.
>>98115979gee, seems like your shitty rules aren't well received at all JOHNALD
>>98115943>>98115968I looked at ebay prices and it's about the same as paying for 1 year of subscription, so I'll just do that.
>>98115950Keep buying those marines so I can freeload off pirated scans and rulebook pdfs.Thanks in advance.
>>98115973Not sure if you remember the old chat rooms or messenger. You could tell who someone was by how long it took them to type something or the way they structured sentences.With AI text there is something clearly non human almost as some kind of uncanny valley.
>>98115982I mean if you have weapon options for units that could do with having a few more marines operating with those options it might help.>if you have vanguard veterans you could mini-magnetize pistol options for them via wrist-gun(pistols)Or>magnetizing all your tanks guns and possibly a dozer blade that MIGHT FUCKING COME BACK (like it did for 4 editions)shit like that
what do you think the free mini will be in june?
>>98115994I can somewhat tell when something like an image or a video is ai.I can’t tell when it is written text.I really can’t tell when it is a preexisting stl model that was generated to be a “scan” of a preexisting model.I’m not sure about ai generated miniature model giveaways now.Is James scared of image to 3d stl models now?
>>9811553375% cool people I enjoy getting games against.10% good people who are a bit too dim to understand how a tabletop game works10% people who would be good if they weren't insufferable tournyfags5% people I don't want to even share a room with
>>98115928If there's an Assault Ramps enhancement or strategem I'm gonna go buy another four sagitaurs to fill out my army.
>>98116007Best I can do is try to be the 10 percent dim people.What are the insufferable ones like?Same with the tourneyfags.What are they like? Any stories?
>>98115973It's not about le uncanny valley, it's just that it has its favorite kinds of formatting.For instance "it's not X, it's Y", the em dash, and needless use of bulletpoints.
>>98116004>Is James scared of image to 3d stl models now?no, the market for resin prints is tiny and already way past its peak. GW is too big to fail at this point.
I hope Duncan also makes space fantasy miniatures. The future is bright for miniatures.
>>98115938>Specifically barred from moving during the shooting phase if deep strike.Pteraxii, Seraphim, Gargoyles all on suicide watch.
>>98116014worst case you can CPstrat it up from brandfast
James should hire better writers and better rule makers.
>>98116021>I hope Duncan also makes space fantasy miniatureswhy?
>>98116004>I can’t tell when it is written text.I think that just means you don't read very much. It's a well-known phenomenon that writers have a kind of "voice" in textual form, from the length and rhythm of their sentences, their word choice, their idiosyncrasies with punctuation. Stephen King was outed as writing under a pen name because one of his fans could literally just TELL it was him. AI writing is like that, and it's so obvious it's actually jarring and annoying. These days if I start watching a youtube video often times I'll be able to tell the youtuber is reading a script they had AI write for them and I always immediately unsub and click away because it's fucking atrocious.>>98115979>It's literally as clear and legible as it has ever been.You have crippling autism and GW should fire you.
>>98116021>space fantasyThat's literally what 40k is.
>>98116029I like to believe gw actually has the talent to deliver what we want.They just choose to keep things above average when it comes to rules and books to not have our expectations too high as they don’t want to have a “epic Armageddon situation” where it gets fan community support long after it is no longer officially supported.That’s probably why gw confined the Epic successor to the Horus heresy setting out of fear that if a 40k game it would outdo mainline 40k.I could go on how it could happen but I don’t want to make this post bigger.
>>98116030Because I like the new fantasy minis he announced and I like space fantasy. Combine the two
>>98116035>to do X is to be Ylistened to a yt vid the other day where this exact phrase came up several times, it's quite easy to spot
I am 100% people are only talking about the rules being written by AI ITT to seed the ground for the latest Arch or Discourse Minis video.They're very clinical but they don't come across as AI written. It's just the same as the last AoS rules.
>>98116035>I think that just means you don't read very muchI actually don’t.Internet brainrotted me and I need to fix that hopefully starting with rulebooks before I go back to actual chapter books.>voiceI guess that explains how I can somehow recognize my posts when I go to archives and stumble across a post I’ve made.
>>98116040The issue is the current guys making rules have never played an actual wargame. Best case scenario they started playing 40k during 5th and that edition introduce problems that are still being replicated today.Why? because the guys that originally wrote 40k left and the few original guys that stay clearly needed the others to keep their stupidity in check.
>>98116043for me it's >it's not just [X], it's [more elaborate X]
>>98115973When you use ai enough times you know the common patterns.

>>98116021His stuff's alright if a bit boring. The human ones are the worst in that aspect, 0 pizzazz.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98116053You may be correct but my tinfoil hat still says that GW is holding back deliberately.GW is a big company it can hire proper rules writers and they can from bongland if gw really cares about keeping everything British about themselves.They just choose not to.
>>98116048>I am 100% people are only talking about the rules being written by AI ITT to seed the ground for the latest Arch or Discourse Minis video.Don't be a faggot dude, I couldn't care less about those slop channels. It does feel like they used AI to write it even if they edited some after the fact. The one thing I will say is at least it's not as bad as the HH3 rules, but it's still fucking obnoxious.
>>98115861>>98115873100% if the hazardous wounds go to "unit" instead of "model" this edition it's because chatGPT wrote it.
>>98116057>not x. Not y. Just z.Fucking annoys the shit out of me every time
>>98116064I haven’t used ai enough then.Should I start familiarizing myself or is it better I remain ignorant because ai can be a bad rabbit hole?But I aint giving up image to 3d models to stls ai.Got a lot of stuff I want to archive as stls from passable proxies and more.
>>98116051>I guess that explains how I can somehow recognize my posts when I go to archives and stumble across a post I’ve made.Yes exactly. I'm the same way. And the more you read the more you learn to recognize voices, and LLMs have a very specific, noticeable one.
>>98116075>he posted for a deldar refresh again?>good>delay it
>>98116089>Should I start familiarizing myselfNTA but no, honestly if you want to improve yourself cognitively and expand your mind, start reading old books written before year 1900 more than anything.
>>98116064I don't use botshit, I don't need to use it to notice how every low quality content creator/journalist/marketer suddenly homogenised to a new and grating writing style all together.
>>98116040Nu-epic is heresy only because it’s a specialist games team game and the mainline games team didn’t want them to touch 40K factions.
>>98116089I personally avoid it for actual work, but like any tool it has its uses. For example bouncing ideas, examples for structures, or start researching something is a good starting point.Using it to replace your actual workload is pretty retarded. Specially when the bloody things start hallucinating shit and making shit up on the spot. But then again is not much different than searching things on your own an filtering the bullshit.
>>98116103Still one of the dumbest decisions GW has made and I live in constant terror of the day they announce a new Battlefleet Gothic and it's also Horus Heresy slop and it just dies out immediately too.
>>98116099Thanks anon.>>98116103This kind of proves my point because a good number of opinions share that specialist games studio is made up of better rules writers because they just are better at their craft and have more incentive to write better rules so that their games sell.
>>98116071The only knight I've seen is meh, but the bad guys look great
>>98116016I'll take playing against a dim player all day long. I enjoy teaching the game and helping people figure shit out. I don't have any real stand-out stories. The tournyfags just have to play every game as if they were at the final table of an event and I'd rather have a casual "beer and pretzels" game most of the time. The real bad ones are just people with shitty abrasive attitudes or people who don't know how to bathe. Although there hasn't been a stinky in a long time so I think they all got ridiculed away or staff spoke to them.
so im gonna try to get my hands on the ork starter half, and ive also got 20 more boyz and 10 gretchin (the older ones with the herder)so apart from that, what else would you guys consider fundamental ork units i should get to start a collection?absolute must haves for me are ghazgkhull and at least some kommandos, but beyond that im not really sure whats essential and whats more niche or a waste of time. im not broke but i've got a total of around $800 to get this army on the table, so i need a decent game plan to get the most bang for my buck.
>>98116146>so apart from that, what else would you guys consider fundamental ork units i should get to start a collection?Trukks and/or battlewagons. Also some of the new bikes.
>>98116146we know close to nothing about what will be good in 11th edition
>>98116146Tankbustas in trucks.
>>98116156isnt 11th just a continuation of 10th? its not an index edition i thought
>>98115533>Imperial daemonStop calling Saint Celestine an Imperial daemon, she is not a daemon.
If women could understand 40k dark eldar would be the most popular faction.
>>98116167yes, she is
>>98116040The flipside to "Epic Armageddon" is "Epic 40k", where the rules were so bad it crashed one of GW's most popular games.Armageddon only came about when the rules were repurposed into Battlefleet Gothic and they had to ask "What made this well liked when Epic 40,000 caused projectile vomit."The Epic Armageddon playerbase still was only ever a small fraction of the playerbase Space Marine/Titan Legions had had.
i have dark eldar fatigue
>>98116184Time for more Ultramarines
>>98116191More Marneus POGGIN Calgar????? More Cato HYPEBEAST Sicarius?????????????????
>>98116120Ask the Bloodbowl players in /gwsg/ how good the specialist team is at writing rules. Or the Necromunda players when a new gang's book comes out and there's at least one piece of wargear that's nonfunctional RAW and half the skill list is filled with retarded shit no one would ever take.
>>98116184true, those knife ears have had too much attention as of late.do you guys think guilliman will join calgar at armageddon during 11th edition?
>>98116175based
>>98116175Too bad for gw women don't generally give a shit about collecting models so dark eldar will stay on the npc bench.
>>98116200I still can't believe they put the fucking ultramarines in. I hate GW so much.
>>98116164Yes but the edition is also going to have new points values for everything, and there's some discussion as to whether or not some datasheets will get rewritten.For instance, almost every penalty to hit (Such as Stealth) in 10th is -1 to Hit. But Cover is -1 to BS. That means things that ignore hit modifiers or give +1 to hit are much weaker due to the +1 bonus limit.
>>98116195
>>98116191speaking of, the fuck was with gw and those ironic ultramarine videos and articles?did they mean to release this BEFORE the wave of models or did they make these specifically to damage control and mock whatever potential pushback there was from the wave of ultramarines? or was there some other ultramarines releases coming that was then delayed?
New to Warhammer in general (just started painting minis in January) and was wondering how good/supported Kill Team is? Girlfriend and maybe one of my other friends are the only people I have to play with and I'll largely be supplying all the models so things like Spearhead and Underworlds over in Age of Sigmar seem really appealing since full on 2000 pt army Warhammer just isn't gonna be feasible. But because 40K has so much content, including all the video games I can play by myself, that's appealing. Seems like Kill Team would be my only option for tabletop play if I went that route though.
>>98116222The Ultramarines reveals got pushed up by like four weeks because the Marneus Calgar model leaked from an internal meme going up on social media.
>>98116225By far the most supported specialist game at this point. KT alone outsells several 40k factions, probabl most AoS factions and all of TOW. It's not likely to go anywhere over the next few years although they will drop another edition at some point.
>TQMixed bag of characters including the Classics™ - About half are the stereotypical: Fat, balding men ranging from 20 to 50.- A knights player who brought 3 lancers to his last game against me (GW play the only usable in HH please).- A school teacher who seems to win at every competition he is in- One guy who works high up in local government (but isn't a politician)- A tranny (Classic)- A woman (Female) who is so autistic it makes mine look tame by comparison.
>>98115555>new glup shitto thing/rule/unit>Here's a bunch of ways to outdo glup shitto thing/rule/unitWhat is the fucking point?
>>98116237Damn good to know. Already sunk some money into Underworlds because of the cool models but might have to pivot. Love fantasy but the level of support for 40K just makes it difficult to resist. Hard to be on the outside looking in at shit like Rogue Trader, Space Marine 2, Boltgun, Darktrader, etc.
>>98116248I think if you want a low investment entry then Kill Team and Spearhead make sense. But it kinda sounds like you're being FOMO motivated too, which is never worth it.
assassins are cooler than space marines
>>98116182I forget which version of epic is regarded as the less crunchy and faster fun one.My bad.>>98116196I mean the alleged good quality of the rules definitely bred some elitism in those specialist games communities. Along with hipster complexes because the games aren’t the main warhammer games. /awg/ does it even worse. Game could be genuinely worse than warhammer rules and fans will defend it because it is not gw. Even when the company is screwing up big time like what happened with privateer press.>>98116221Memes like that are my guilty pleasure.But I’d prefer a pearl from blade edit instead but I can’t use pc right now and would probably suck at photo editing on the phone.Also pearl the fat vampire’s chest would probably not be allowed on a blue board.
>>98116256if their commonality was replaced you would be saying the opposite
>>98116268no
Why do they add women in male factions? Women have their own thing like Adepta Sororitas. And then there are female inquisitors and other cool stuff. Why do they have to rewrite the lore?
>>98116225the other anon already gave you a good answer but I wanted to share that the other day i randomly came across a youtube vid of some dudes who run a store and shared the numbers of sales on their store over 2 years and KT was at number 2. I knew it was fairly popular but not to the point in which it's only outsold by space marines lol
>>98116254Definitely an element of FOMO and I probably prefer the aesthetic and fantasy setting of Age of Sigmar more but it's also that I'm a big lore/worldbuilding autist so 40K having a ton of secondary content to the tabletop game really has its thumbs on the scale.
>>98116276effeminate writers and creative directors, emboldened by a culture that encourages this kind of behaviour
>>98116276Because it's a trend / moral panic. If you're not X then you're terrible.
>>98116276Women in leadership roles making demands of cucked and/or pussy whipepd effeminate men
>>98116276Guard never was a male only faction.
>>98116225Worth mentioning that Kill Team has a co-op/solo mode, which makes it a good gateway drug for girlfriends and the mildly interested. Check out the Terror on Devlan box or the Nemesis Operative rules.
>>98115831Sunblitz brotherhood is pretty cool, both the new and old scheme.
>>98116276you do know girls in the guard existed in the past right?
>>98116276There were female Kriegers back in 2005.
>>98116276Guard has never been male.The imperium has always had surplus manpower.
>>98116225Kill Team is very much supported because it's a game with the most predatory release model. The game is awful, simply terrible and sales are being pushed mostly by FOMO boxes that force you to either buy 10 minis for 150 bucks or wait for a year for a standalone release.
>>98116276what >>98116323 saidPlus there were some Minis of guardswomen
>>98116325what makes the game terrible?
>>98116339Anon doesn't like it.
>>98116320Nta but really?I need source like book and page number.I haven’t read the ia books.I do want an excuse to play coomer Krieg models.
>>98116339that's just detritusfag, ignore him
>>98116276Adepta sororitas army has males in it last I checked in model form. I don’t like that either.
>>98116225Kill Team is more fun and a smaller investment. It's evergreen for casual play, but there's a team rotation if you're a tournament chaser.
>>98116276If there's any regiment that might field women, it would be Krieg: their usage of Vitae womb makes them less dependent on normal uterine gestation.This frees their women so they can go die for the Emperor. Or star in fanfics for greasy fans.I'd also guess it makes sense for the Guard to have women: if new soldiers are born near the front lines, the Administratum no longer has to front ferrying fees :^)
>>98116333why is there no stereotypical native american shoved into every guard release, james?
>>98116333He's just like me.
Idk what to expect for tomorrow's AdMech preview. It'll probably be1. Ranged Skitarii detachment2. Ranged Kataphron detachment3. Ranged Electropriest detachment please please buy these ugly models off our shelves!Idk what would be exciting
My (accidental) entry for the Big Guy(4u) collage and last month's collage(also accident)
>>98116339It's a game that pretends to be a tight competitive game while utilising the worst of GW gimmick rules and design flaws.Current Kill Team doesn't have listbuilding. The game is solved, with Teams being played the very same way every single time since with no listbuilding it's extremely easy to work out the most optimal setup. There are operatives that are never worth taking, same is true for gear and equipment. It has extremely and unnecessarily convoluted cover rules while still using the absolute dinosaur of wargaming rules - True Line of Sight.Everything is a gimmick and a keyword salad. The bloat is real and rightfully makes many people think about the 7e.This is simply the worst iteration of Kill Team we ever had if you consider KT21 and KT24 to be the same game, since they pretty much are. The fact they resigned of using fucking shapes in place of number values is hardly an upgrade when everything else stayed almost the same at its core. There are dozens of better sci-fi skirmish games that let you use your Warhammer minis.
>>98116048It seems way too consistent and free of logical contradictions to be AI slop. But I don't think the anons suggesting it are doing so in bad faith. Technical language is not something everyone is used to, and many people are overly focused on catching AI in all forms.
>>98116403It literally is a tight competitive game which is why it tore up all the GW alternatives that were competitive skirmish games like Malifaux and Infinity.>teams played the very same way>no listbuildingThis is just factually untrue and you have to consider your matchup constantly. KT pre-21 was basically unplayable memeslop. At least it's an actual fucking game and not just "vibes" now.
>>98116412>It literally is a tight competitive game With the sweatiest playerbase GW ever had, spending their time mostly on rules lawyering. Simply epic.>which is why it tore up all the GW alternatives that were competitive skirmish games like Malifaux and Infinity.Based retard. KT18 was more popular than Infinity and Malifaux as well simply by the fact being a GW's game. Next you will tell me 40k is the most popular wargame around because it's better rules-wise than any other game on the market.
>>98116403Please name the better kill team alternatives I want to make a custom team.
>>98116424>Based retard. KT18 was more popular than Infinity and Malifaux as well simply by the fact being a GW's game.This just isn't true. Infinity's playerbase got wiped out in Spain by KT21, which also led to Spain being winning all the fucking KT tournaments for like 3 years because the playerbase hopped over.
Take it to the specialist thread you homosexuals
>>98116403>reddit arguments as evidence. Shit, you could have convinced me had you bothered with actual arguments such as the blatant power creep and fomo releases. But no, you couldn't even bother.
>>98116357NGL I might have hallucinated female Kriegers at Vraks. The earliest I can find a -definite- mention of female Krieg is the 9E Chaos Space Marine codex (a mixed-sex regiment that got slimed by Iron Warriors).There is a BL book about the Siege of Vraks that has one but its fairly recent.
>>98116433The only reason we can't discuss it here is one retarded fag who hasn't stopped whining that his le epic wolf terminator lord kill team was rendered invalid 5 fucking years ago in favour of a game people actually enjoyed playing. If I want to just play based on feels I still have my old Inquisitor rulebook, he should get into that.
>>98116424>bitching about rules lawyering Oh, so you don't even play regular 40k.
>>98116403The MTG team cycling pushed me off the game, so it means something when I feel like I must address your retarded take, the game is much more competitive simply because alternating activations instead of IGOUGO makes the possible games explode exponentially, akin to a game like chess.The lack of listbuilding is a necessity because the game's resource expenditure is extremely tight, a team of purely plasma gunners would be totally skewed against elites in a way no current team is, regardless of how you point them, and many teams do give you a choice of high value pieces, plus there's still teams like Inquisitorial acolytes that have dozens of meaningfully different configurations.
>>98116425Xenotactics is great - imagine Infinity but without annoying hacking rules. It comes with a custom profile builder as well.Renegades it's literally Kill Team but good.>>98116435>such as the blatant power creep and fomo releases. But no, you couldn't even bother.>>98116325>sales are being pushed mostly by FOMO boxes that force you to either buy 10 minis for 150 bucks or wait for a year for a standalone release.Retard-sama, I kneel.
>>98116449>exaggerate to absurdity>why don't people listen to me???
>>98116376Cuz that's a Dark Angels thing.
>>98116449>imagine a worse infinity, the perfect game
I kind of want to chime in on how dogshit Killteam is as well but I’m genuinely so exhausted of it already. The worst thing is the cult it has. The sculpts themselves are also generally boring remakes as well.

>>98116449>renegadesThe free one? I’ve heard of it, asked about it but never got responses.I’ll try shilling it to kt lgs players who are disappointed that their teams aren’t supported.
>>98116449Xenotactics feels like an incomplete game. There is a base for good system.It basically plays like something someone made as a prototype and never finish the product.The reaction mechanics are cool, same with the action caps and risk of turn over.Xenotactics mixed with This is not a test and or the Death fields mechanics of stress could form a rather interesting system.
>>98116487It's basically a fan version of old kill team.
>>98116476This guy basically gets it.Wish things were better.
>>98116486Nids having guns is part of the 40k charm. An alien species evolving tiny dudes shaped like guns that spew shit out of their (holes?) is both horrifying and funny af
>>98116374The reality is that most planets in the Imperium have no difficulty meeting their manpower quotas for Guard regiments. Even a planet on the smaller end could probably raised dozens or even hundreds of regiments.Equipping and training them Guard-quality is the actual tricky issue. It makes sense to skim the top 1% or even 0.1% of women if it raises the quality of your Tithe even slightly.

>>98116398I still love that old daemon prince like you wouldn't believe. Good work anon.
>>98116523>Got a source on that?Just some Mathhammer. There's no set regiment size, but most mentioned in the lore seem to be about 1k-4k men just like real life. Modern nations of several hundred million people can support multiple armies, consisting of 2-5 Corps, which contain 2-5 divisions of 2-5 regiments. Average Corps size is 40-80,000 people.The average Hive City has 5-10 billion people.
>>98116527All I know is that grunts get used as pack mules that can shoot (ish).

>>98116523>Has anyone noticed the increase of Internet Christians?I'm not sure what you mean by adding "Internet" to the appellation but yes Christianity has been growing worldwide over the past few years, this is a known phenomenon. The more traditional branches in particular, like Orthodox, have tripled in terms of new adherents, mostly young people and especially young men. The young generations are rebelling against the fake and gay secular modernism.
>>98116544shop channels don't have it any better, I had to wait 2 months for "2 week wait time" on my order for a raider. But surely GW is now printing all the new refreshed Dark Eldar if they're not to be squatted this edition right...

>>98116456so good that nobody plays it!
I think it's very telling that the average LARPer here sees game rules written in a way that says what you can and can't do with a list of exceptions and they get mad
>>98116584>made it myselfYou resculpted the plastic kriegers in a t or a pose and posed it to that?Even if you got a remake and started editing it that is amazing on its own.Proud of ya.o7
>>98116602Yes I have no idea what they actually want.
>>98116078>Go to the unit instead of the modelif you do that then you just have 10 hellblasters leave 5 of their guys with 1 wound each and no marine model would ever die to hazardousare you retarded
>>98116602>>98116610I have no idea what I want at this point because people say 40k rules are not great but I can’t convince anyone to try a different wargame and ttrpg sessions seem fun because the players and DM are just fun lads to be around so I can’t judge the quality of ttrpg rules.
>>98116602>>98116610You are the LARPers since you obviously have never read an edition of 40k before they started writing like this modern trash. It's been stated over and over people just want rules written like they were when real gamers who gave a shit wrote the rulebooks - casual, fun, making references to what's going on in the fluff, cracking jokes. It's really not at all complicated to understand, and again, you would already know this if you weren't LARPing.
>>98116592It's honest or just Self proclaimed BS? Because I(and many in RL) don;t see that "Increase in adherents" More just larping on the Internet. Pretty much the same shit with Internet Atheists, that rose due to Evangelical posturing of Raegan and Bushes. This is why I added Internet Christians. Just post "aesthetics" and Larp as some secular modernism hater while Using everything it has made possible while being Obnoxious abaut it.
>>98116621In 5th edition you could spread wounds. Granted you needed to have unique models within the squad to do it though.I would not be surprise if GW forgot about it for 11th and will need a day one patch.
>>98116630Bro what are all these random capitalizations, for one, and for two, yes there is actual verifiable evidence that the population of Christians is growing in many places.
>>98116630the latterbaptized orthodox roll their eyes at these larpers
>>98116630R/atheism ruined atheism so hipsters desperate to look unique at the cost of dignity discarded their atheist costumes and put on the Christian one.And a lot have come to 40k to do the fedora tipping equivalent of showing they’re doing a Christian larp.I’ll admit gothic architecture like church buildings in Europe look cool and 40k still does that architecture because cool and something about cultural stagnation.But it looks cool in warhammer 40k.Also that game your pic is from is overrated but the jokes are funny.
>>98115613Well, at least the Einhyr Champion actually benefits from the Einhyr detachment now.
>>98116639It's some of both if we're being honest. There are definitely guys on the internet just posturing but that's a knock-on effect of the overall culture moving more towards traditional spirituality.

>>98116630a lot of people Deus Vult larp christianity as a political identity. They're mainly Trump/Fascism worshippers that use Christianity as loosely aligned veil.See - All of the US Christians that went all in on 'Empathy is weakness' and the constant hatred of the pope for not being fascistYou can tell that the larp is real because the guys in this thread swapped over to Orthodoxy after they initially tried Catholicism and basically got called evil by the pope
>>98116648>R/atheism ruined atheism so hipsters desperate to look unique at the cost of dignity discarded their atheist costumes and put on the Christian oneI doubt this happened at all, one of the hallmarks of the reddit atheist crowd is that they utterly lack self-awareness, none of them changed sides because of public perception they just doubled down and became twice as pathetic.

>>98116691>Trump/Fascism worshippersThis is not a thing you retarded leftoid lmao. Real fascists do not like Trump, he's a ZOGslave. The Trump or die MAGA crowd is mostly centrist-Republican boomers who are completely out of touch with how quickly politics are changing.
>>98116680This works with my theory >>98115351 , Celestine is fundamentally "of" the warp, and cutting the warp off cuts her off, while Stern "generates" warp, so cutting off the warp doesn't cut off her power source, because she IS the power source.
>>98116698No, you fat redditors were never right lol, go back.
>>98116700You could just as well have been baptized as anything anywhere. Even as a subhuman.
>>98116700>groomed into beliefs as a childMy condolences>>98116712>Real fascism has never been tried, they don't even like Trump!Sorry you got conned into voting for a guy who was part of an international pedophile ring and repeatedly blows up the world economy to enrich himself with only everyone tried to tell you
can god help me win at warhammer?
>>98116702>I bet [a bunch of random headcanon you just conjured out of nothing]Yeah, no. Don't pretend like you know anything about what's going on when you're so out of touch you just needed it explained to you that Christianity is growing.
>>98116727No. Games of chance and dice belong to the Devil.
>>98116523>Got any source on that? Because Beaurocratic incompetence is kind of the Imperiums thing.Not him, but when you look at the population numbers GW does give for some stuff, like hive city populations.It is said that an average hive city can contain anywhere between 10 BILLION to 100 BILLION humans within them. And according to the fluff at least 85% of Imperials worlds all have at least ONE hive city cluster on their surface.Mind you that 10 billion number itself is already bigger than current day population of OUR Earth. It's calculated that there's around roughly 8 billion humans on the planet currently.So with these numbers alone, say if the Imperium decides to conscript at least 2% of the hive city populace into guard regiments.So even at the low end of 10 billion, so 2% of 10 billion, that'd still amount to like 200 MILLION guardsmen conscripted.This alone is an insane amount of man power to have.And if we go with the 100 billion number, so 2% 100 billion, that's about 2 BILLION guardsmen conscripted into the Imperial service. Which is even more ming bogglingly massive number, since 2 billion is roughly ONE FOURTH of the current population on Earth.Imagine 1/4th of our entire planet getting conscripted and getting sent to war.
>>98116726>>Real fascism has never been triedActually it has been tried and was very successful, that's why we want it. Trump isn't fascism at all, he was just the lesser evil compared to the alternative.
>>98116700>>98116712>>98116715>>98116728lmaodo you live in arkansas by chance?
>>98116727Yes. But it will be in a mysterious way where if you win, that's God, but if you lose, that's on you.
Would 40k Arkansas become Ur'Kansas or Archkansas?
>>98116526each other, just like in real life
>>98116736You're replying to two different anons, but no, I'm from a northern blue state actually. People forget that even solidly liberal states are still 33% or more conservative.
Hives are so large and humans breed so fast that the Imperium regularly has to take population control measures. Mostly sending the unlucky to the front lines.
>>98116663Heh, nice one anon. Saved.
I want to build a warhound titan list for funImperium or Chaos?
>>98116700Orthodox and catholics are enemies btw.
>>98116751niggers
>>98116733They dont actually have the logistics and manpower to conscript 2% of a Hive at one time, and even if they could, the Guard is still only the top 10% of the armed forces under usual conditions, with the other 90% being PDF. Of course, that's still a fuckload of bodies so you're kind of still correct, but it's not to quite the same degree you're suggesting. The biggest bottleneck is actually in providing troopships to transport Guard regiments off-world, there are only so many Warp Engines, Navigators and so forth they can build and train in a given time, the Navy is always stretched thin.
>>98116744>Mostly sending the unlucky to the front lines.You can get off frontline duty with a good blowjob. Meaning those who give good blowjobs survive, while the bad blowers get frontline'd away.This means the average Hive City dweller is a superb blowjobs machine, explaining their extreme population growth
Warlord titan is the ideal industrial big robot silhouette if you don't want to get into cathedral/palace on top thing

>>98116855Any other answer than this is wrong. >>98116866
>>98116440Plenty of female Krieg mentioned in the shorter stories too, but I've yet to read about one in a command position that has extended dialogue; only a female Commissar that was attached to the regiment wearing a Krieg uniform and mask, but again, she wasn't a native.They often make a point of not being able to tell their sex until they speak, etc, but they specifically mention stuff like 'A Krieg soldier in the corner binding her wounds' or 'Her voice was higher in pitch than the last soldier he spoke to, but still just as matter of fact and deadpan in tone.'

>>98116826How have people already forgotten the terror that was 7th ed Wraithknight
>>98116888Yeah, even if nids the army weren't great, the MC type just had so much stuff it was busted. Even the Tau's Riptide which was a vanilla MC in melee beat dreadnoughts through sheer difference in skill types>>98116896Probably the single strongest unit in 40k history. Unironically would have been taken at 1000 poitns and was like 300
>>98116826>knights>riptide>wraithknightmany such cases
>>98116877The irony is that the company wants to be all inclusive and point out that females are just as good and important as males and yet the setting/universe they're doing it for couldn't give a single fuck or not. They just want you on the frontline and into the meatgrinder. The old starship troopers trope.
>>98116906knights force everyone else to pay to win
>>98116834Black Templar fans were here long before you, fucking tourist.
>>98116826In aos gw releases big models literally any faction can take. Some of them get to be meta.
>>98116901>Probably the single strongest unit in 40k history. Unironically would have been taken at 1000 poitns and was like 300It's funny because the 40k dev who wrote its rules left the company and then admitted in an interview they had buffed the shit out of it to make it more epic like the lore and were planning to increase the points accordingly, and the business executive guys were like "no, no, keep the points the same so we can sell lots of them" and they were like oh so you want us to undo all the buffs and the business guys were like "no! keep the buffs! just also keep the points the same"Literal irrefutable proof that GW does do this on purpose to sell plastic as many people suspected for a very long time.
>>98116875>fucking Riptides, holy shitI'd be surprised too if I saw 2 robots having sex.

>>98116985That's why this man is greatest duelist on the whole motherfucking galaxy, strongest dueling chad.
>>98117009Surely they've had at least a couple good showings in the last 40 years? I know they killed Abaddon once before that got retconned.
>>98117011I will only forgive those people who have played Eldar for many years before the Wraithknight was released. All fucking bandwagoner WAACshits must rot in hell.
>>98117009>eldars>coolynnari was the chance... gav and james with primarchs fucked it up
>>98117022Only clowns ever seem to get a good showing. And DE occasionally too but they're obviously a separate faction.
>>98117023I can't, Eldars, all of them, must suffering.
>>98117020Holy kino
aren't tau the principal offenders when we talk about waacfags? i thought that's why so many people hated them besides the "good guys" thing.
>>98117039Normally I would shit on you for being ESL but this time it made it funnier.
>>98117033Craftworlds exist to suffer. Commorites exist to make others suffer. Harlequins exist to laugh at suffering, both their own and others.
>>98117047Exodites suffer to exist.Corsairs did not understand the prompt. Exist to surfer.
>>98117044Eldar were OP before Tau even existed, continued to be OP through all the years Tau were terrible, and were still slightly more OP even when Tau were at their worst, most WAAC form, and the most WAAC list of all time was Taudar mixing the two factions as allies.
To this day i still cannot tell why they killed Harlequins, or why they couldn't give Corsairs a codex.
>>98117021>"greatest duelist in the galaxy!">has to cheat with a fucking demon tentacle whip because he can't win with just his sword
>>98116927you own no models
>>98117066He is a champion of Slaanesh, the tentacle comes with the job.
>>98117044Tau are so widely hated for being pub stompers and punishing casual players. They get a lot less annoying the better you are at the game.Eldar, on the other hand, get more annoying the better you get at the game. Their reputation bleeds down to the general population as well, but a skilled commander can dance circles around opponents in most editions.Unless they've eaten ten rounds of nerfs like right now, lol.
>>98115940NTA but one of the sisters lists I want to make is mechanized because of this. And it STILL will have 38 infantry models, 44 if you count vahl and a trio of paragons.
>>98117062I like both of those factions but frankly neither of them should be a separate codex, they should just be subcultures within the Craftworlds the same way Wyches, Kabals, and Haemonculus Covens are subcultures within Dark Eldar.
>>98117021there isn't a more embarrassing character in the entire setting>I'm le greatest duellist>loses one fight and disfigures his face>becomes avatar of slaanesh>loses every single fight ever sinceoh and best of all>the eternal>has never had any sort of revival mechanic on the tabletop
>>98117072This is a pretty accurate description, yeah. Tau gunlines slaughtered casuals, but in most editions (not 7th) casual Eldar players couldn't pilot their specialist glass cannons effectively. The higher you go up in skill the worse Tau do and the better Eldar do.
>>98117079They're not even part of the same society and don't even occupy the same parts of the galaxy. They're not one big melting pot like Commorragh. Hell, harlequins are Webway ghosts and used to be part of the DEldar codex before they were CWE inclusions.
>>98116977>>Literal god manifestation biggest jobber of the setting>How is possible?By having GW summon him, only for the Avatar to get defeated in return. Doesn't help that this keeps happening in ever more ridiculous ways.Like in one Ork book from few years ago, the Avatar of Khaine almost gets killed by 3 NOBS btw. It's also the same story where an ork weirdboy/weirdboss unironically does >*teleports behind you* nothin personel kidAnd then just pops a farseers head killing them.And then at the same time, for some fucking retarded reason, the Autarch leading the eldar force then genuinely starts to bawl their fucking eyes out crying on MIDDLE of the BATTLEFIELD because he/she saw the farseer die.People wonder and ask why eldar fans don't like eldar fluff/novels, it's because of shit like this.
>>98117084He's not even close to the best duelist in the galaxy. That's a self-proclaimed title.
>>98117084It takes days for him to manifest in his killer lore-wise but then entities like Celestine can be killed and disappear for months at a time and she can res no problem...
>>98117090>and used to be part of the DEldar codex before they were CWE inclusions.Anon they were folded in with craftworlders since Rogue Trader, and Corsairs were too in 2nd edition. Dark Eldar didn't exist until 3rd edition.
>>98116977The Avatar of Khaine is immortal. Do you know what that means? It can die and not 'die'So everyone can kill an Avatar of Khaine to show off how epic they areSee also the Swarmlord
>>98116950That was the Wraithknights if I recall correctly. Less than 300 points and it was a Titan with Jump and double D weapons
>>98117079Disagree, specially on the Clowns casen they are no mere Kroots, they have an specific aesthetic, a god, a specific society, they don't deserve to rot at CW's shadow.
>>98117098I assume it's because the writers don't actually know or care much about Eldar lore. Even I, as a casual, know they adopt a war mask that makes them emotionless sociopaths during battle.
the 40k Rogue Trader game is the best Lore representation the dark eldar have had in decades
>>98117108Being Inmortal and utilized just to make others look cool is pretty embarassing still
>>98117121It definitely was. I certainly became a lot more interested in them because of it. Looking forward to them getting an actual full model range. Shame they got rid of the snake guys.
>>98117098gw simply cannot write consistent lore, thats why anybody taking bl seriously deserves the rope and bullying.
>>98117020Where are the weapons from?
>>98117113Warmask or no.It's still really, really fucking dumb to have the Autarch, a centuries if not many thousands of years of battle experience and has seen every ugly side of war, who has mastered every aspect warrior path, start to cry on the fucking battlefield because they saw comrade die.It's like having a high ranking Imperial Guard colonel drop to their knees and just start crying in middle of a charge because they witnessed their platoons Psyker get killed.It's just dumb.
>>98117123It happens to every big immortal "badass" at some point. Swarmlords, Demon Primarchs, and Phoenix Lords are just as notorious for this. If you can get killed in a fight without staying dead permanently, GW will use that out to have a confrontation to prop up their hero without altering the setting significantly.Has that ever happened to a CTan shard? I feel like they might try it with them too.
>>98117098Best Eldar lore/fluff came from the Imperial Armour books because they made them scary to fight because they utilised their advanced tech so much. Eldar these days seem to only be advanced as the Imperium with a bit of magic sprinkled in. They're meant to be leagues ahead of every other race in the galaxy bar the Necrons and maybe DaoT humans.You're not meant to be able to hear their vehicles, they run as silent as the wind and they're on you and gone again before you even know they're there.
>>98117112Be that as it may they've always been closely associated with the Craftworlds in lore and in terms of codexes/army lists. They might occasionally fight on their own but not enough to justify getting a separate codex.
>>98117138>Has that ever happened to a CTan shard?Constantly, yeah.
>>98117129I like to think of Black Library stuff as beta testing and it's not official canon until it makes it into a Codex or other first party GW publication.
FACT: Vulkan is hiding because he knows that if he returns, as an Imperium Immortal, he'll get farmed by Chaos for 'wins' for their characters. He's not interested in dying to some guy named Kravek Morne
>>98117153This except even the first party publications stop counting after 4th edition. But if they're well written I'll accept them anyways (Octarius War stuff from 9th was really good).
>>98117139Something something children breaking Eldar tanks with sticks and stones.I can't remember if that was from a CS Goto book or not though which is another can of worms entirely.
>>98117084Slaneesh keeping Lucius around because it's funny seeing him constantly fuck up is one of the better bits of fanon
>>98117156Who has died more: Vulkan or Angron?
>>98117167It's barely even fanon since that's exactly the kind of twisted, capricious shit the Chaos Gods are said to be into. They laugh when their own minions die.
>>98117153GW are super protective of BL lore though. The authors literally have to call the lore department to ask how to interpret things in their books and the editors also go through it with a fine comb to make sure it's lore accurate.If things don't ass up in a BL book it's because they haven't decided it as hard lore themselves or they simply don't give a shit.
>>98117138yes before they gave more novels to the ultras that "killed" a nightbringer with severe ptsd, still didn't stop him from punting the Burning One with void granade
>>98117176This is more of a meme pushed by the BL authors who are butthurt about people who say their books shouldn't be taken as canon than it is actually true.
>>98117185I know it is true of videogame developers. Owlcat was very open in their design comments about how much input GW had over their narrative choices.
>>98117138didn't cato 1v1 a c'tan shard
Would any of you have the old black templar copypasta at hand, it was about a neophyte and his trainer. The neophyte was sent out to purge heretics but by the end of the day he didn't meet the tally, they do this for few times and the tutor then wants to check the chainsword of the neophyte, revs it on and the neophyte goes "By the Emperor, what is that sound?".

>>98117134Torsos/Heads are Solar Auxilia, arms are from the Exaction Squad kit (Specifically the alt build for Subductors) and the shields come from Anvil Industry. The Heavy Flamer here is a kitbash with some Guard bits and plasticard.
>>98117190Problem is when video game tourists get involved in lore discussions it turns into a bloodbath."I'll never forgive GW for stopping a sister of battle romance in RT"Why the hell would a SoB want to engage in a romantic relationship even if she had time to? The point is that they're 100% devoting their entire lives to big E. Every second of their waking life is training or fighting with prayer in between to the point some of them skip meals. Sometimes I actually enjoy GW putting a hard stop on shit like that. Pissing the gooners off is just a bonus.

>>98117222>Why the hell would a SoB want to engage in a romantic relationship even if she had time to?Because it's been mentioned they have relationships in the books.It's not surprising people are confused, when there was already a precedent set that sisters do have relationships. And on top of this sisters don't take a vow of celibacy either.So the whole "sisters can't have relationships" is just wrong, and the whole Argenta debacle just reeks of GW saying "no, you're not allowed to romance this character because... because you just aren't."Also it doesn't help that the iirc the files/assets for the Argenta romance route were in the game and almost finished.So it just feels like even more of a slap to the face for the players.

>>98117254It's funny you say that because the Tau and Deldar discords are both completely convinced that they have been utterly fucked over by the new edition rules
>>98117281Tau with the new fly and the new terrain layouts are basically unstoppable in MontkaDeldar just won from every rule change
>>98117287new transport rules are pretty bad for deldar
>>98117254>Going to be good>NidsI feel like nids won't be "good" but "spikey"For their good units survivability wasnt the issue so the cover change doesnt really affect them meaningfully and while the battle shock changes do look to be beneficial to them it's gonna come down to whether or not your opponent fails their rallies.They're probably still going to struggle with primary with terrain footprints as objectives since their best play pattern this edition was finding angles to get on to an objective while staying out of LoS which is much harder now.
>>98117201Here is my collage submission reposted.
>>98117084>>the eternal>>has never had any sort of revival mechanic on the tabletopLook at Trazyn and tell me that having a revival mechanic on the tabletop, fluffed like Lucius', is a good thing.
>>98117302it's fine because if the transport blows up the unit was doomed anywayin exchange they get one of the most efficient durability skews in the game, armywide walk through walls, heavy/plunging abuse, and free pivots
Do I buy 40k custodes or 30k custodes??
>>9811731530k
Modern objective scoring rules are so gay and cringe compared to the 3rd edition missions.
>>98117315I still kinda prefer 40k custodes, 30k custodes look weird.
>>98117315I'll be buying the blade champion because he's the best looking custo model and he'll get squatted
>>98117315Neither, boycott femstodes.

>>98117201Joke theme choice where we paint any model but have to include pics of our feet?A Tarantino month?
>>98117269Celibacy isn't the issue, again, it's 'why would she?' as I previously mentioned. There simply isn't time or reason to do it. You're training and fighting 24/7 until you die like a Space Marine. This isn't the guard where you get shore leave and random hookups in downtime. You're training and praying. Why would your Cannoness suddenly let you go off with someone else to settle down? The only time a SoB is let off is when she gets so old she goes off to tend a small sanctum or library and I highly doubt romance or bearing children is on the cards at that age anyway.There is literally one mention of a SoB in a relationship in the entire BL and Codex lore and it's a passing observation from a Ciaphas Cain novel that was written before SoB were even properly established as their own faction with real fluff outside of Witch Hunter footnotes. It's as ridiculous as a space marine settling down with a wife and kids half way through his career.

>Check out models for 40k on Amazon>They're far fucking cheaper than GW>I can get Rangers, Fire Dragons, and a Wave Serpent for $165 while from GW, it's $197>Dark Eldar Codex is only $51>Avatar of Khaine I only $93Why am I not buying models and shit off of Amazon?
>>98117458lances and haywires are pretty swingy so them killing 2 defilers is unexpected and he was running some murderbricksand 15 defilers is the total number of them in top8 so 5 other players on chaos with 3 defilers each on average im guessing
>>98117413permanent means permanent
>>98117474>he doesn't knowanon... most retailers have a 15-20% discount from GW msrp
>>98117485this has never been true
>>98117487what shithole do you live in where your lgs doesn't discount gw products?
>>98117413if your schizophrenia already deduced that im that guy from 7 word sentence then do me a favor and tag everything you think is mine and we'll have some laughs together afterwards on how many you actually get right
>>98117487Step into any non GW store that is a licensed stockist of Warhams (there is a difference to just owning a bunch of Warhams products they're trying to sell)
>>98117474If you buy your models direct from GW you need to get help. In the UK you can quite easily find GW products up to 35% off retail price.

What exactly makes 10th-11th ed so "competitive"? Is it the yugio trap cards? The mathing?
>>98117549It has people like pic related in it.
>>98117555What is happening to him?
>>98117496all over the world, primarily in the EU and various US states during my deploymentsNever once has an LGS had a discount beyond occasional promo bundles>>98117517I have, this is the main LGS in my town, we don't even have a licensed warhammer shop

>>98117522stupid piggies get what they deserve
>>98117741You know the rule
>>98117722Dude there are multiple international people itt telling you that these stores exist. I myself am Aussie, we have plenty of lgs like that here, and in my travels across various countries I've run into stores like that elsewhere. I'm sorry you've never found one, but you must either be really unlucky or don't understand what a licensed stockist is. Does your lgs here >>98117580 have the ability to order direct from GW, like almost as if they are GW themselves?
>>98115750it's you selling your collection on ebay in 9 months when you assemble them and realize you don't like the idea of assembling, plainting and then playing them and creating sculpted dioramas to house them when not using them is beyond your measure. And when you do, make sure to discount them because I will acquire your cheap models.
Which army is least likely to get me called a f*g here?
>>98117773who fucking cares
>>98115789>you don't need to buy the whole damn range.Unless it's an army that has fewer Unique Datasheets than the Kroot subfaction of course, like Emperor's Children or black templars.
>>98115825dark eldar are not eldar and their range is better anyway.
>>98117785The dark eldar range is bad and needs a refresh

Here's your Vindicare Assassin proxy, bro.

>>98117822You're right, it was all but a ruse. Keep buying direct, it's the only way.

Has GW employees infested all the major 40k reddit forums? The "people" there always seem to be running defense on GWs shitty practices and how they are actually a good thing.
>>98117580>>98117822>>98117895You live in Corvallis, Oregon?
>>98117899Can you read?
>>98117896Plenty of beaten housewives around in this community
>>98117895you right, I should've left the name calling out it was unnecessary. his posts just read to me like "young adult fresh off deployment" but I might be reading into things too much, and the bratty attitude ages USians down a bit
>>98117896Why the fuck do you think anybody here gives a fuck about what reddit is doing go back
>>98117866I believe you are responding to a bait post.Most would agree that the dark eldar range looks remarkably good for how old it is. Hellions and wyches are a bit divisive though.Regardless, they have way more retired models that need replacing than current ones that do anyways.
>>98117896>major 40k reddit forumsSuch as? I only go here, plebbitor
>>98117911>Why the fuck do you think anybody here gives a fuck about what reddit is doing newfag
>>98117919Projection
>>98117919Oldfag here, he's right
>>98117912can't wait for Vect to come back with his space dragon.
>>98117917Warhammer40k, Grimdank, and WarhammerI like reading cringe posts from people I hate and then posting it here so we can all get mad together
>>98117896I wouldn’t be surprised if incognito damage control employees are a thing hired by businesses.But it’s probably just zealous fanboys.>>98117911Nta but it can be funny seeing redditors be their silly selves.Sure we can make fun of them by pretending to be them but the authentic Redditor is always more silly than any attempts at mimicking them.Anyways the warhammer 40k reddit community is at best a containment.
>>98117496Nta but I've been in like 10 gamestores all over my neck of the woods (lelgium) and it's all gw standard pricing except for shit like 5 year old harbringer boxes, or datacards from last edition, stuff like that.Now discounts are easily attainable but that's only when ordering from specific online retailers.
>>98117929even older fag herewe have always bitch and complain about how other fans have the wrong opinions>>98117926thanks for your concession
>>98117935What makes grimdank’s posts so unfunny? Even without the context of them being from plebbit you can tell they’re bad.What even makes a warhammer 40k meme funny that even people not into warhammer can find funny?
>>98117945Okay gramps. Maturing is no longer giving a shit about what dome retards in another corner of the internet are doing
>>98115569>"KICK THE BABY!">"Baby wha-no nononono don't kick teh ba-!"
>>98117496Have about 15 LGS within the 2 major metro areas where i live in the US. no one does discounted pricing on GW stuff. They know they can charge full price and people will pay it.Closest you get is some store have a loyalty punch card you can trade in after spending x hundreds of dollars for a 25$ gift card/cert/
>>98117983I dont get it. Who is buying this instead of just ordering online? I mean even just going on ebay or amazon it’s 15% off minimum. I just got an ork armageddon battalion for $130 on Ebay.
>>98117953>what makes grimdank so unfunny40k redditors are polluted with midwit political takes that acts as filters if they find something cool or funny or not.Their cope with liking 40k is that the Imperium are the bad guys while other factions can be seen as good soley because they are fighting against the facist faction.Like this year someone posted on Grimdank that picture of a Black Templar killing Rey Skywalker as a "happy May the 4th" thing and the entire thread was filled with seething because Black Templars=Chuds, violence against women, "the new trilogy was actually good!"It's the inverse of 40k Imperium fans who seethe whenever the Imperium is shown in a bad light.
>>98117972>"maturing"Maturing is for faggots. Cool people act and behave the same way they did when they were 16.
Kits are so dogshit to build now. Building Krieg Death Riders and it just fucking sucks and is not fun at all
>>98117882lelith is a new kit and will not be replaced.
>>98117375So unbelievably bad that /40kg/ could collectively write a better book by shitposting.
>>98117196Oh fuck sounds hillarious. I hope someone would respond lol
>>98118039Well that does explain a lot about 4chen
>>98117375he was so bad his writing is some of the very few things to be declared definitively noncanon
>>98118030Can I get a link to that may fourth pic?Would love to see the seethe but maybe the comments are mostly deleted.>>98118039This post is objectively correct of the highest caliber.A mature person enjoys harmless hobbies regardless if society thinks it is harmless or not.Think adult fans of Lego and us who enjoy warhammer 40k model painting.But model train hobbyists will always be superior and I’m not one of them.>>98118058Is that a new tier of bad after so bad it is inspirational?That’s really sad if true.
>>98118025People with very poor impulse control. Theres a dude I'm one of my lgs discord that is in the shop on the daily buying something or asking the shop to hold something for him "till he gets paid next"
>>98115885my nigga
>>98118134I blame sloptubers hyping up every release. These idiots keep getting their pay checks one spotted by fomo.
>>98118140The 3d animated film of that was good.Somehow those films don’t shatter the belief that 3d films are just for kids.You think cavil might make his 40k show animated at the secret level quality?Or is it locked in as live action?
>>98118141I got an in with a good chinesium guy but unfortunately they have had to become more reclusive after GW and the chinese government actually prosecuted a few. Crazy to think the international IP mafia even has reach in China.
Last game my opponent kept referring to individual models in his units as units. I dont think he was doing it on purpose but man it was frustrating
>>98118153My impression is that it was live action, cavill is an actor first, hes not going to produce an animation.
>>98118159>GW can now enforce copyright in ChinaB-bros James workshop is too powerful.
>>98118167I figure he won’t too.40k is just so over the top that live action may not work.I’m not sure how lord of the rings worked in live action but that’s rare.And so much cgi is used it all might as well be fully animated.Michael bay might be perfect for directing the action and war scenes though.
>>98118170I mean, its more that IP law is a scam to enforce neo feudalism. It disproportionately empowers major companies (who have used the power of the corporate lobby in the US specifically to enlarge the legal power of IP for over a century).Medical IP is one of the most sick things ever created by mankind, but IP in general just exists to maximize wealth extraction by pay piggies.There is no moral IP law, its literally just gentile mind control. Everytime anyone criticizes disney or monsento or eli lilly, these companies ripped straight out of the cyberpunk RPG, 1000 retards will leap to those companies defense in the name of obscure porn artists on twitter (90% who make copyright enfringing work anyway).
>>98118189Disney adults are weird.They make me stop and ponder if I’m a Disney version of such a term but instead of Disney it is warhammer.
>>98118189The normalization of IP law across the planet is a greater achievement in mind control than any populist movement, revolution, or shit like pizza gate as a false flag.
>>98117933I think that would please "40K needs real dragons" guy almost as much as it would annoy "bring back the dais of destruction" guy.
>>98118070What are some particular C.S. Goto stuff?I’m talking about ridiculous things so ridiculous they seem ridiculous by 40k standards.And are his books at least easy and fun to read?
>>98116843Riptide was a distraction carnifex when it came out. It looked scary and was hard to kill but couldn't really do that much.
Once again asking for a good source of Firstborn Sternguard Vets that won't set me back $200+ or make me wait 2+ months to get the damn things.
>>98118289It's too much to list. Take a look at an old 1d4chan rant pagehttps://1d6chan.miraheze.org/wiki/C.S._Goto
>>98118291A nigga at t6 2+ 5++/3++ that's chucking down a str8 ap2 pie plate was definitely doing a bit back in the day, it's why the riptide wing formation was such a meme because even after 7th nerfing of tau's allying ability you could still chuck it in pretty much any army and you've got a very solid firebase.Kinda unrelated but the 7th ed allying adjustments were kinda hilarious because I remember when people were cheering that Orks won a GT, which was a big thing for such a weak codex, but if you actually looked at the list it was really just an ork warlord and weirdboys and the rest was daemon's and more daemon summoning.
>>98118305Have you considered a time machine?
>>98117269The other part is that Owlcat has a noted tendency to write romances that make you feel like a cuck. The lack of Argenta romance would have been less significant if the base game female romance options weren't "Eldar that considers sex with humans bestiality", "Silent trader that will constantly cheat on you and steal from you.", and "Fishwife that's perfectly fine but if she stays with you instead of taking over the Navigators the game calls you a bad person."A lot of it is really resentment left over from the Pathfinder games which were even worse with the romance options.
>want a knight>what if I buy piece by piece>final cost is like 50% more than buying it full priceNevermind then.
>>98118336You can find a lot of discount rescue Knights on eBay or Facebook marketplace if you keep an eye out for them to pop up. Though I warn you they won't be magnetized and will likely have a fixed loadout glued in place because those are the kinds of people that resell Knights.
>>98117274Would you prefer the one from Necromunda?
>>98117303I'd think the move of cover from +1 Sv to -1 BS is a fairly good change for an army of high volume low ap attacks.
>>98118354Why are necromunda stuff better than official warhammer main game stuff?
>>98118387because Necromunda is done by SGS aka what is left of Forge World.
>>98118394>left of forgeworldWhy are forgeworld’s designs usually better than gw?What is forgeworld doing right model design wise that GW is doing wrong?Except that one time a model had 3d print lines and another had an upside down boltgun.
>>98118030I checked out grimdank (because I hate myself) and that place really is an absolute cesspit of unfunny normalfag slop. It's either le own the chuds "memes" that are just walls of text with a basedjaks or an image that isn't even anything funny, edited/reposted fanart from twitter, plebbit approved safe horny art from artist that plebbitors haven't banned yet for being "problematic", or old memes from several years ago that are actually funny. Also the occassional "muh this thing is x and evil" or "this thing is x so it's not evil" post from pseudo intellectuals trying to justify why they like 40k even though you don't need an explanation to like a toy franchise setting for being "problematic".
>>98118409>le own the chuds "memes" that are just walls of text with a basedjaksBrevity is the soul of wit as I’ve heard the saying go.Why is it always like that with these types?Any particular examples you found offensive to share here so we can all suffer?
So anyone know the proportion of transport to infantry you're supposed to run in Brandfast Oathband? Today's preview kind of makes me want to buy another two sagitaurs which'd mean I'd have just under 1000 points of transports.
>>98118354Yes that's exactly what I wanted
hey chat, I just bought a new thunderhawk
>>98118464why

>>98117254Why Death Guard? Doesn't feel like much changes.
Someone make new thread.I don’t want to.
>>98118422I don't want to post plebbitor shit here and I really don't want to go back in there, but the walls of text with an unfunny image "meme" is common on plebbit because it's the most inoffensive thing they can post. Posting anything even slightly edgy or offensive can end with plebbitors going into seethe spirals until the post gets banned. That's what from what I saw at least.
>>98118515Karandras
>>98118546Seethe spirals from a sideline is a guilty pleasure of mine.Would love the see the fights.I use plebbit for porn.Hentai reuploads specifically.Any Japanese hentai manga artists take commissions? Want to commission a 40k flavored one.
I never realized how many knock off minis were sold on etsy. Time to look for proxies
