Heads up, traitor friends.WGAs Damned army box is available to the public, and its already possible to find it with nice discounts compared to buying it directly from WGA.
>Knights in cloaks covering skeleton armour (or maybe its their real bones) stealing peoples souls for human sacrificeWhy isn't there anything this edgy in 40k? Why no cloak skeleton swordsmen whose left hand (sinister) ripping peoples souls out of their body?
>>98144151Because the Japs always do it better and this isn't a japanese game
>>98144141How fast is James gonna rush out a traitor guard army to “deny sales” from wga?In all seriousness Thank you anon!I hope the heavy infantry come out soon.So I can make a chaos stormtrooper army with tauroxes.Assuming that guard variant army doesn’t get squatted.
>>98144154>How fast is James gonna rush out a traitor guard army to “deny sales” from wga?Army box with the dark commune, cultists and multiple traitor guard kits, voila.
>>98144141not my jam but GWs cultists and traitor guard offerings are so fucking bad they deserve all the competitors they get
>>98144130>tq1. depends on the army2. mainly just have talking streams going on in the background
>>98144159There's nothing wrong with the traitor guard kit
BIGBOUNCYBANSHEEBUTTS
>>98144151How about a cloaked skeleton scytheman (that might just be dust in the armour), whose name is "Harvester of Souls"? Pretty much all he's missing in left-handedness.
>>98144151>>Knights in cloaks covering skeleton armour (or maybe its their real bones) stealing peoples souls for human sacrificeall these things are in 40k, but not on thing specificallythe good thing about this hobby is that you can kitbash it yourself
>>98144158I’m joking but I can see James doing that.People joke that GW does nothing and wins like China.But the thing is games workshop pays attention to the competition as they are paranoid of losing their number one spot.>source: that time when mantic announced kow 3rd Ed and gw rushed out a square base announcement that became warhammer the old world>the timing could not be a coincidence
Played a game earlier using the new 11th rules. We sort of muddled a 10th ed mission with one of the new layouts. Overall it definitely feels like a better game, not that it was very hard to improve on 10th. Terrain feels better and it's great that we used no L-shaped ruins.
>>98144163I like it too, but its a crime they did not use the "standard" cadian neckjoints for them too. Sure, you can fix it with a bit of cutting and/or greenstuff, but there was simply no need to give each of the 10 bodies in that set an unique neck opening, so even switching between heads from the same set is more difficult than it should be. Still, one of the best sets they released in the last years.
>>98144182That's good to hear, i think the biggest balancing hurdle the rules team will have to overcome is not be retards and price detachments appropriately.
>>98144151There is a type of Necron called "Flayed Ones" who wrap themselves in the skin of their victims.Alternatively if you wanna be a cool og sicko you run SM but paint them as Legion of the Damned.
>>98144171Why is he African? Genuinely, the paint job barely makes his skin noticeable.
>>98144151Anon, your LoTD?
Shouldn't there at this point be a chaos god of bureaucracy?
>>98144167>that might just be dust in the armourHe's just a normal guy. He exists as a soul in the gem embedded in the mask. Whoever puts on the helmet gets taken over by the phoenix lord persona.
>>98144207That's nurgle. He literally has multiple bureaucracy daemons.
>>98144164Would elder consider this to be bestiality? Which would mean there is a chance that some dark Elder got their rival raped by a bunch of humans as an ultimate humiliation.
which army would make a better protoss analogue? tau with all their drones, carriers and collective mind culture. or eldar with all their psykers, jetbikes, melee, and machines powered by warriors souls?
>>98144212Eldar, obviously, what the fuck are you even talking about?
>>98144204i really hope now that GW makes the most out of multi detachments this edition, even if they're just for casual play it'd be cool to have unit restricted detachments for stuff like LotD and other stuff.Honestly i wouldn't be surprised if agents of the emperor get the ability to go in other 40k codex armies by mid edition.
>>98144210>picrelThis can't be a real model
>>98144215eldar dont have any drones, and drones/probes/carries/reavers are like half the protoss roster
>>98144225drones and all that just imagine it's piloted by soulstones like wraith constructs
>>98144221We have such sights to show you.
>>98144212Neither, protoss are tanky fuckers. Gameplay-wise probably CSM is the closest, they both melee blenders, psykers and robot crabs.
>>98144210Is the quill a Tzeentch feather? Nice touch
>>98144210are those the guys that count everything?
>>98144232
>>98144243Be respectful, it's pride month
What's your current main army?What's your current second army?(Or preferred choice if you could)What's your current third army?(Or preferred choice if you could)
>>98144221it's real, and in 8th it had some real good buffs.
>>98144246Adeptus RetardesSmelldarVotrans or Porks
>>98144246This only applies to 40k>Tsons>Word Bearers>Tau
>>98144241No, that's plaguebearers. The scriveners make sure that the numbers that plaguebearers report match up.
>>98144164banshee do fart?
>>98144246OrksTyranidsDeath Guard Imperial GuardCSM + Khorne DaemonsSisters of BattleBlack Templars
>>98144239i was thinking wraithblades for zealots, they're pretty tanky
>>98144246Probably have the most points in CSM, or at least chaos in general alongside some daemons and spiky knight allies.After that it's probably a contest between Eldar and Admech. Marines would be in the running to if legends rules count, but that's mostly accumulated from starter boxes.
>>98144134>>98144247How haven't you killed yourself yet you pathetic cretin.
>>98144246>current main armyterran>current second armyzerg>current third armytrying to figure that out, but whoever it is they'll be protoss
>>981442463000 points of sisters, well painted.2000 points of ig, above average painting.750 points of marines, not painted
People who build armies to 2000 points and then call it "done" are fucking weird.
>>98144289you just want someone to post the image, even though its for fantasy...
Gems and crystals
Wanna get back into 40k after a loooong time, stuck between 3ish armies? Dark angels, necrons, or like death watch /imperial agents?
Do we have any books about the inside of Slaaneshs realm?
>>98144130I just want to say that Rick Priestley was pretty clear on adding medieval christ motiffs to rogue trader and 40k when he concocted the setting. However he's british and therefore conflict avoidaint in parley. Thus his theme: bored public school boy day dreaming whilst enjoying classical education is too subtle for the proles that infest society in major. Really at the end of the day people who take this lore seriously are caught in a teenagers fantasy to make school enjoyable.
>>98144257I liked the whimsical names, they sounded exactly like a humourless HR or Finance drone trying to show how 'zany', 'wacky' and "I can be quite a character" they are.
>>98144171Spooky
>>98144298between those, i'd say dark angels or necrons, and necrons will probably be more fun, although dark angels will probably be easier to play. deathwatch/imperial agents is janky to build, janky to play, and they have a tenuous future going forward since GW doesnt seem to know how they want to handle them and reinvent their rules every edition.
>>98144246>What's your current main army?Dark Eldar, started in 5th>What's your current second army?AdMech, started in 7th>What's your current third army?Deathguard, started in 9th

When people say "the big E", I always think of Jeff Epstein.
>>98144210~2014-2017 nurgle was such an odd aesthetic
>>98144327it fits though.
>>98144330i agree
>>98144330Slurpyburpy Chungusmunchies fit? Maybe in AoS
>>98144151I will now attempt to commit genocide on all of them in the name of +15 weapons.
>>98144327daemons have always been more fantasy coded
>>98144333are you able to articulate your point?
>>98144302>plasma pistol coils aren’t glowingStrangely enough I like this a bit over glowing effects.Mostly because I suck at painting and this metallic coil effect looks easier.
>>98144333>no the chaos demon of deceitful whimsy and fairy's cant be depicted as silly!I bet you came when you saw the muilators and think they are 10/10 sculpts.
> Emperor shown to slightly move and regenerate in the new trailerGW is going for the Terminus Decree shit, aren't they?
>>98144333Whacky nurgle predates aos though If anything their nurgle is now the most dour since they moved away from le mouth tentacles sassy nurgling while 40k still has that aesthetic
>>98144246world eaterswaiting for darkmechwaiting for darkmech
>>98144351>soon**within the next 10 editions
>>98144351GW would never tease what they're planning
>>98144351>Terminus Decreekek, what do the gay knights want to do? They will get slaughtered before setting foot off of Titan.
>>98144343He'll fit right in here considering this place is full of goofs who think phobos marines are 10/10 sculpts
>>98144378What if that is the plan? To purge the GK from existence upon his ascension, for whatever reason (devour their souls for extra power, use the attack as a propaganda tool, or whatever).
>>98144398You trust GW that much?
>something is oldschool>accuse of it of being nu or aosEvery time
>>98144400Sounds like something dumb GW would pull at the last minute.
>>98144278queenslanders never die, anon
>>98144246orksgsc + tyranids soup mixno idea about a 3rd army, id probably just expand on the nids i have and call that it
>>98144378>Teleports the void dragon into the throne roomnothing personal kid
There must always be a captain... a lich king... an emperor...
>>98144426>Emperor, before putting him back in the Noctis Labyrinthus again
>>98144246TauAdmechGrey Knights
>>98144413I think there's a difference between a 50 year old nurgling model sticking his tongue out at you and the chungus mungus bilepiper, playing a keyboard made out of liver and kidneys while simultaneously doing a cartwheel off a tactical rock and farting in your face
>>98144451Stop lying, you can’t think.
>>98144246NecronBlack TemplarNo third army but probably Nids or maybe IG
>>98144351Hes not regenerating, its more he has many aspects. When Guilliman met him in path of fire he was like 10,000 different shards that were all schizophrenically disagreeing with each other. He's not a unified being. He's a corpse and he's not. He has hope and he has despair. He's the future of humanity and it's doom.

>>98144616same, looks like cheap plastic. kinda the same problem as the old necron green clear rodsif they actually included glass sections and made the frames a separate piece, it might look okay, but cheap plastic solid moulded with the frames all as one piece? looks like a toy. i'd rather just paint some polarized effect or some stylized window reflections
>>98144643holy based....

WE HAVE SUCH SIGHTS TO SHOW YOU
Why is the gun so thin?
>>98144801Is it a bolter round, a blade, or autistic screeching? Because I've seen all those before. EC are not especially Hellraiser coded.
>>98144812Because the budget for the painter was also tiny.
>>98144812Laptop Gun-looking ass
...XOdites?
>>98144812Isn't that art years old at this point or is he still drawing them like that?
>>98144830Looks really nice so AoS
>>98144246>firstCSM>secondVotann>thirdBeen toying around with some ideas here and there but nothing concrete yet. I'm kinda torn between expanding the renegade guard models I have to a more complete chaos cult/iconoclast fiefdom army, going even further and getting some tanks and stuff for them to make a full traitor guard army using IG rules, or starting a small Deathwatch force. Truly, indecision is the nigger stealing the bicycle that is my creativity.
>>98144167>>98144208Except unlike the other Pheonix Lords, Maugan Ra has never died. So his original body should still be in there.
>>98144830Nah, that's Vect's new dragon mount.
>>98144812Because we've now reached peak 40k. Things are so good that all that's left is a homosexual art critic and a loser who puts decals on every square inch of his models.
>>98144831Its old, but he has painted countless such pictures. Any AI slop would look better than that.
>>98144837Space dragon would unironically be cool
>>98144837Where did this rumour even come from?
>>98144842>>98144845>>98144837If this bitch can have a little (xenos) dragon pet, why should vect not have a fully grown one?
>>98144130>TqTheme: https://youtu.be/uL85SuaYCaII like to listen to audiobooks like Honor Harrington or the Princess Roger series, military sci-fi and schlock stuff. Either that or history podcasts like Lions led by Donkeys.
>>98144845People mishearing Valrak saying he has a rumor from his source that "Vect's slave barge is gone but is replaced by a nasty alien beast". People interpreted that as him being mounted on a big xeno monster like the old dark elf heroes. Valrak later clarified that he still has a boat, just the human slave girls have been replaced with xenos instead.
>>98144830the scale texture reminds me of the new seraphon models, although they dont have anything with claws like that but they are rumored to be getting a new quetzocoatl, so maybe thats what it is? or some new terradon style flyers?
did we find out what this is from yet

>>98144130>What’s the music piece that fits the theme of /yourdudes/?I dunno for my Mandrakes I guess dark Kabuki ambient or some shithttps://youtu.be/WHL8PcrtEW8?is=WgFmiCb6CeJ35uWwAnd for my Chaos Space wolves I guess The Northman's soundtrack. >What music or podcasts do you listen to when doing hobby things if you listen to any?Really just abaut anything that's on. Sometimes I'll revisit some docummentaries. Or even lore channels but I don't do that anymore really exept for Live!From a Black Library since he has nice topics and his Jokes (the rare one that he tell) and his voice don't make me rip my ears off. Plus he just has good rewatch value.
>>98144870>>98144869>>98144830Yeah, that's definitely a Seraphon Quetzalcoatl Wasn't Malekith's dragon also named Seraphon?
>>98144351it's not moving, nor regenerating, it's just different depictions because gw doesn't want to canonise one single art over the others.
>>98144885It was.I think the leg is AOS because its standing on a branch, don't get many wood bases in 40k
>>98144885yes
I feel like exterminatus gets used too liberally.
>>98144894also 40k is rarely allowed to actually have anything besides space marines. hell even their new dwarves are space marines
>>98144885>Quetzalcoatloh my god please let it be true, but also please don't let it be based on that godawful tww version
>>98144845There is a faggot who springs up and spams how he wants dragons in 40k to appease some sexual thing. Genuinely do not consider it as anything than thirdie drivel
>>98144899So true>>98144901The tww black dragon looks cool though?
If I make a SM 1K points list now with 10th points, how likely are points changes going to affect it for 11th?
>>98144901>>98144910I missread your post sorry, yeah the Quetzalcoatl is dogshit, so bad I blanked it from my mind
>>98144918the points, overall have changed shockingly little since 3rd edition. most models rarely increase or decrease more than 10-20% from their core amount, despite what other people may say in hyperboleso depending on balance, a 1k might end up swaying to 900 or 1100, but i wouldnt expect it to lose or gain half its value, even over the course of multiple editions. very very very rarely does this happen. the only recent example i can think of in the last 10 years was the leagues of votann redesign that took them from an elite low model count army to a more midsized trading army and cut their points in half, but that almost never happens, certainly not with something as long established as marines
>>98144899Sad Trvthke
>>98144837Dragon would be cool.
>>98144885>>98144830A Coatl by definition doesn't have any feet. It's a winged serpent. That foot might be Seraphon but it is something else.
Vect is confirmed to have a Dragon? Dark elf+Dragon is rad even in space
>>98144963this design is so fucking bad, why did they go through with it
>>98144963Horrible.
>>98144815>EC are not especially Hellraiser coded.If you've only been reading horus heresy slop I suppose
>>98144969It's a unit that had an official kitbash recipe but no model for many years, so they literally copied the shitty kitbash

>>98144963>creature traditionally looks like Xi can guarantee you that does not matter to age of sigmar in the slightest
>>98145019>>creature traditionally looks like XHe didn't say that. He said that GW has already decided on a design for quetzalcoatl.Even video game designs need to go through GW first before approval.
>>98145041>He didn't say that.>A Coatl by definition doesn't have any feet. It's a winged serpent.he literally didalso GW JUST released a whole range of chaos dwarves that look absolutely nothing like their TWW designs. TWW has no bearing on GWs model production
>>98145019why can't 40k get good models like AoS?
>>98145072a combination of too restricted by adherence to traditional designs and a slave to the money printing marine machine
>>98145054Well he is right, it's still a winged serpent
>>98145054The chorfs whre for AoS not old world
>>98145019Serpents by definition don't have legs.
>>98145072I hate the AoS modelsonly spics like that level of florid detail on their shit, it is gaudy as all hell
>>98145092and yet somehow AoS models are way easier to paint than 40ks. Curious, very curious...
>>98144451In early Warhammer Fantasy Nurgle was literally a circus that would come to town and infect everyone with aids, and all the demons of Nurgle were happy purveyors of disease. Beasts of Nurgle were described as giant slugs that thought they were golden retriever puppies.
>After about a year and some change I'm almost done with my Space Marine repaint.>Just 3 Bikes, 6 Inceptors, and 10 Reivers to go alongside 4x VehiclesNever doing a full force repaint aga->My new guard scheme is a slightly different shade of red.
>>98145100not the point, every model looks so gross idk how anyone can stand having it on their shelf, a whole armt would make it look like the average concrete wall in southern california
>>98144830Seraphon is one of the few remaining AoS battletomes. Probably some special character riding a pteranodon.
I have a hard time watching most battle reports or listening to british people talk about 40k. Im 37, I shouldnt have add, it just feels like there's a total lack of brevity

How many magnets do you think is enough to magnetise the bases to transport a full army? Seems like people recommend at least 2 magnets per base since everything has giant bases now. Has anyone actually done it and if so, how many did you go through?
>>98145157are you taking them along in your f-15 or something? One is fine as long as they are neodymium.
>>98145143>youWe dont have to any longer. Any AI slop is better.
>>98145122GW could just take their shitty artworks like this one, and tell AI to make it look better. >make this pic into a good looking codex artworkPic related could now be refined by someone who actually knows what he is doing, or by an AI who is actually properly trained and not just my Windows copilot. But it could be so easy. And GW still settles with their shit tier pictures like >>98144812
I think there’s a two tier system for exterminatus in how it’s treated.>Core important worlds? Only exterminatus in absolute emergencies if it’s about to be permanently lost to tyranids or necrons anyways>Fringe periphery worlds? Exterminatus if the xenos so much as sneeze in their direction, since the Imperium will never bother reconquering them anyways

>>98145143Let's see YOU do better
>>98145218GW probably forgot that each Great Company isn't just 100 marines, it's closer to a full chapter each.
>>98145218Logan really like his cringe ass sledge.
>>98145179Tried to make it similar to other art and make the colours more vibrant. Now it just looked deepfried.
>>98144511Shiiiiiiiiieet
>>98145237just monochrome it
>>98145157A single 10x2mm neodymium is enough for mostly anything. On 25mm bases you want a smaller 5x2mm because otherwise the minis will snap together all the time.
>>98144830Lizardmen or chaos warrior stuff for Aos.
>>98144503>inspired by hooligans, nazis and hunsI think there's a case to be made that orks were inspired by all races EXCEPT blacks
>>98145239By 2090 in the USA it's estimated that almost 80% of "black blood" will have white/mexican lineage in them.
>>98145245>more drip than anything in CSM and every 40k chaos lord
>>98144812There is just one artist who always draws guns like they are cardboard cutouts, it's awful. He did the 9th ed GSC codex cover too.
When are the full detachment rules supposed to drop again?
can you feel the adarki aledarii comming?
>>98145248>tons of cute lightskin brown girlsVGH... Born in the wrong era...
>>98145259I would use it as a Lord Discordant on Helstalker with Baleflamer and paint the maw with venom drip for technovirus injector. Grab a pistol holster off of one of my 30k kits.
>>98145264Bi-weekly drops in July through December.
>>98145222I can’t pull 1995 pts out right now but here are the troops, I have ratlings/ogryns and a few other misc things but 90% of the army is catachan
>>98145222>>98145283Here’s the list
>>98145283Nice bro.>people should be nicer to guys who have to take the time to take a picture and respond
>>98145259I think it's just not having to make everything techno-organic. I think the sphiranx, cyclops guy and wilderfiend are great little monsters in AoS but if they were 40k they'd have a bunch of pipes stuffed into them.
I'm stumped guys. How do I make easy flames to attach to models? Should I do smoke and make it 'glow' to make it easy?
>>98145283Reveal the secret of Tulip's Treasures.
Also StD can definitely still go over the top with trim. Varanguard are way too busy.
>>98145307In fairness the guy didn't HAVE to paint glowing lava coming out of every crack in the armor.
>>98145306>his gf has never stolen one of his mini cases for her sex toys
>>98145307Just so, Varanguards are the 1% of StD. The trims are completely approriate.
>>98145316He's actually toned down the model. GW basically just go too far with the mutations. The basic chaos infantry look amazing in both CSM and StD. A lot of the characters look really good. But the elite/mutated guys, both factions, just get too busy. And unfortunately AoS monsters are allowed to just be monsters but CSM ones have to have a bunch of meaningless mechanical bits thrown on them.
>sculptors talking about sculptsActual good shit.https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/fdmnvt1m/new40k-round-table-big-thinkin-about-da-ork-models/
>>98145297>I think the sphiranx, cyclops guy and wilderfiend are great little monsters in AoSBut 40k is also meant to have great little monsters like this, but instead of just monster races its xenos, chaps spawn or mutants . 40k needs to have weird monsters more
>Cogfort has tons of ways to customize itAnd the reason 40k models don't get this level of customization is...?https://youtu.be/gzNEEXJStLM?si=IhIkQ2zMrzsqrdIK
>>98145089>Serpents by definition don't have legs.they dont have wings either and here we are>>98145085and we're talking about seraphon for aos, not old world, soooooo
>>98145337Yes they're fine but the amount of articles they always do just masturbating over the contents of launch boxes over and over is always so shameless
>>98145339Don't knights have a bunch of customisation?
>>98145339Because pigs eat slop
does anyone have the instructions for the easy build ork boyz? my searches keep getting me the instructions for the old old boyz multipart kit
>>981453471 singular kit does, every other one they've come out with is monokit garbage with little to no extra gubbinz
>>98145339AoS is the passion project, 40k is just the money maker.
>>98145337Less detail than I would have liked in the discussion, but the shoulder pad thing is pretty funny in light of space marines.
Why are faggots spamming smegmar garbage in here
>>98145339In AoS the sculptors have basically been able to define the new look of Cities over the past 3 years so they're invested in creating something. In 40k it'll be "we need 3 new space marine kits by Q2".
>Second week of June has Spearhead tournament>AoS models look really cool IMO>Don't wanna spend $150>Haven't seen anyone play AoS at my GW>Will not be able to both assemble and paint over 20 models in 2 weeks totalI think I'll just stick with the Kill Team tournament coming after the Spearhead one since it's cheaper and more manageable to assemble and paint.
>>98145283I'm really tempted to start a Catachan army, just because I'm working on a jungle table and my main army is GSC.Space Vietnam would be a blast.
>>98145283>>98145289I kneel…
>>98145195I mean, the Imperium has used exterminatus against the Tau twice now, and the first time was technically against several worlds all at onceIf the Tau of all people are getting the exterminatus treatment I think it’s worth asking if the Imperium really cares about the fringe worlds at all.
>>98145391>AoS models look really cool IMOkill yourself
>>98145337>>sculptors talking about sculptsIs it actually worth a while? The SM video was a whole lot of nothing>space marines are important and cool>So we did our best to make them important and cool>they are all different and unique>we needed something new for old and new players>this one is my favorite (points to random mcfuck 3)>this one looks like the second and command, and this one has a knife>So what was the challenge? The challenge was that we had to do thing, that's thoughThey were vomiting generic meaningless nonsense while 2 to 3 guys looked like they were there because they were paid to and apparently not for much. Which is true.

Am I retarded or do the new rules really not specify that you cannot stack hit and wound modifiers to max +1/-1? Are we back in 8ed?
>>98145454nta but it's not good advertising & neither is it an excuse, don't be a faggot
>>98145453Do it
>>98145458I think it'll be an addenum on modifyers. Let me check though, I'll magnifying glass that shit real fast to see if its not off to the side of the pages.

>>98145499yeah, they're going to get killed all over it.
I miss summoning daemons
>>98145266How come they're never tasteful about nsfw models?
>>98145499mushroom niggers WILL find a new playgroundhopefully full of bugs
>>98145533Define tasteful? or at least an example.
>>98145499Gilliman just needs to reconstitute the legions already. It is evident that chapter sizes being so small is hindering the Imperium.
>>98145337>for boyz, we intentionally took away the chainswords from the old boyz kit, and ensured there was only one shoulder pad, so by a glance you could tell they were poorer than the nobz, and this makes the rankings feel more distinct aside from “oh this one is bigger”that’s actually pretty cool, definitely a lot more thought put into it than “oh yeah, we wanted each of them to have an epic dynamic pose, so if you buy multiples of them they look like shit”.
The only thing I would bring from AoS to 40k are these fags.
>>98145577awful models, get some taste
>>98145577I like the little fat one with the cauldron.
>>98145562NTG but I'd say less bimbo-y proportions. The full-on spherical asses and boobs are a little much. Or at least have the tits (skimpily) covered up.Not a prude, mind — I actually own a few models from that company.
>>98145564Yeah and mixing so many chapters doesn't work. Like the lore for armageddon says the black templars are not listening to calgar or any of the other imperial commanders and just doing their own thing.
>>98145580Not my fault you are lost, anon. I just pity you.

Ork design interview video QRD>lead designer "was involved" in designing the orks in ~2000s (doesn't specify what he did)>Hasn't worked on 40k since then, worked on AoS>Aos design is "working from a blank page", from nothing, while 40k design is "a vacation" where you're "just taking all of the best bits".>before designing they had a lot of time looking at old ork material>he read "waaagh: the orks">Design manager is the one who decides what's in the box/what gets done>Emphasis on making Ork Core "space barbarian">Lots of "member old orks?">Emphasis on Ork hierarchy; boyz choppas are sharp metal, Nobz & boss get cooler stuff. They decided what each could and couldn't have>Reporportioned the boyz, not much rescaled (Boyz are the same size as beastsnaggaz)>Grots are inspired by 2nd edition grots to look like they'd fight along the orks (gorkamorka grots too different). Grots are a bit "soldier like", with combat boots & such.>Boyz got both shoota & choppa because they saw people only taking the melee option for the extra attack since the boyz didn't shoot great, shootaz are cool>Wanted to have some hierarchy, so banner boy & bigboss>brought back cloth banner & flat armor for "eye relief" and transfers/colors/etc.>"Diorama in the box", hence psyker duel, banners for each, etc.>Kept the Dok simple. Didn't imagine him sewing people back together, so gave him a big scary stimulating syringe. "Not patching you up, keeps everyone fighting">Wanted to show the Dok's skin so you could see the many stitching he's done on himself. Went for a "creepy" guy.>Trakk was designed to look very sturdy. Designed after Wazdakka. Late decision to put a Nob on top. Chieftan on top of his chariot.>Dakkarig: something new, artillery piece. Mek built a gun so big he needed to give it legs because he couldn't carry it around.1/2
>>98145381The sad thing about 40k is it's so secure that it doesn't need to try as hard as other games like AoS.
>>98145562Diazmonettes are still the gold standard for "tasteful NSFW">Showing skin >Not outrageously proportioned>Pleasent to look at>Don't clash with the rest of the factions aesthetic>Still leaves enough to the imagination to not be totally embarrassed to own Modern coomers just can't compete with the OG Spaniard
>>98145591That might work for merchants but it doesn't work for armies. They need a clear chain of command.
>>98145619Yeah, this is right.
>>98145619Too problematic for nowadays sensitivities. You are a chud.
>>98145562NTA but we have several centuries of high art to help us see what is tasteful nudity. Unfortunetly corperate constructs of 'family friendly' made by American wacko puitans means its impossible to present an attractive man or woman naked without it being seen as pornographic
>>98145603>Dakkarig gun is a 4 barrelled twin feed gun, has 6 drums in 2 piles of 3. When one is empty it falls down. Model has a spent one crushed under its foot.>Dakkarig meant to look like a big squig>To keep with the hierarchy, they made sure the Warboss is smaller than gazkhull (out of armor)The "interview" with the design team is mostly the two usual host inserting directed "questions" that are hidden statements. Very unnatural "interview".
>>98145401I’m lucky, I bought a bunch of my metal minis were from the stuff I bought in 2001 when you could get 20 catachans in a box and the metal minis were 5$ a set as opposed to 30$ a pop.
>>98145637We're discussing models depicting conventionally attractive women with bare breasts, of course it's too problematic for the modern brits
>>98145401>>98145645when they will make catachan update?
>>98145619An aspect of these that people don't praise enough are the claws. The plastic daemonettes have horribly tiny wimpy claws outside of the champion and one random other model.>>98145637Very few people actually think like this. Being horny is not ideological. The real reason they don't do stuff like this anymore is to appeal to Little Timmy's soccer mom.
>>98145283What specific container do you use to hold those?I’m looking for one capable of holding a 2k point guard army be it infantry or tank heavy.Also would prefer it to be transportable via taxi in case of car break downs because everything is built to break to have replacements bought.
>>98145638SEXOOO
>>98145651Probably not for a while.But spacenam was mentioned above and that should tide you over.>get plastics from wga>get what isn’t in plastic from Etsy 3d printing services
>>98145638It will never stop fucking me up how nowadays depictions of gore and violence are a-ok but an exposed nipple is a crime against humanity
>>98144232Last thing I was expecting to see today was a chaos marine with a prolapse
>>98145641>>98145603Thanks for the summary
>>98145603>>Lots of "member old orks?"
>>98144232Of all the fucking models to pick for such a clean, pristine paintjob why did he go with a guy with a literal hanging prolapse? It looks so fucking weird
>>98145670I remember watching the Constantine tv series and they could show a man shooting up heroin but not have a guy smoking a cig
>>98145562I'd say these are tasteful:proportions aren't blown out of the water and you can argue the model has an interesting design even if it didn't have tits n ass out
>>98145670Quick anon hide! Hide from the nudity and the female nipples!!Since the Imperium is built upon the idea of humanity being beatiful and the most perfect and a celebration and literal worship of the human form, their really should be nude statues of great heroes, and servitors made from good looking peoples bodys, painted gold and worshipped by the filfthy throngs. Their whole skull obession is from the idea that >even at its most basic humanity is beautifulyet we don't see male or female nudity being celebrated anywwhere un universe.
>>98145691The top one would be tasteful if it was a wych instead of a regular spiky dark eldar with the breastplate removed. The middle and bottom ones are NOT tasteful, the middle has hugely exaggerated proportions and is in a comic book pose, the bottom is a literal dick joke. You are cumbrained I'm afraid.
>>98145682lol of course we member them, most of em are still for sale lol. shits havent gotten an update in decades
>>98145704What's your example of tasteful then
>>98145704I think you're grasping at straws to force counter-arguments here.
>>98145458>>98145468I see nothing.We can now get +3 to ballistic skill among others.
>>98145691Gotta agree with this anon >>98145704First one is perfect as a wych, but I can accept it as a archon thats too confident for her own good and arrogant. Heroic nudity is a thing and a simply bare chested woman warrior for a dark eldar character is perfect. She's posed as a warrior and hero its what tasteful nudity is to a T.The other two are not the tau one is also just strange
>>98145645I'd probably just go for the 3D print using the repitilian overlords space nam line.
>>98145712>>98145718I'm not even the dude you started arguing with, I just saw those examples and thought lmao fuck no.
>>98145725My question was sincere
>>98145655Plano 732 tackle box, around 50-60$I have 2 leman Russ’s, a chimera, 2 sentinels. You could probably fit 6 lemans or 6 chimeras in it.I also have my marines in the same carrier, but I only have 3 outriders and an atv for my ultra marine vehicles.>I legitimately Have a second one coming today I got off eBay, I’ll take some pics of it empty when it arrives, how tank heavy is your tank heavy army?
>>98145019>AoS tries to be 'diverse' with their focus>Nobody buys it>AoS makes the humans xenophobic expansionists looking down on the other races>AoS is now seeing vastly increased successWeird how that works
>>98145724More power to you anon, they have some cool stuff I’ve seen
>>98145704>tasteful if it was a wychlooks like a wych to me
>>98145734>aos tries to sell the cities army with 30 year old models from a dead game>nobody buys it>aos adds new models to their game>instant successweird how that works
>>98145734From what I've seen the reception to CoS turning into fantasy IG is largely negative and even fans of the new designs say that they should have tossed some elves and dwarfs in there>>98145733I have this one and the front door's handle thing cracked after like 5 uses and now it flaps open constantly. Wish it were a proper locking mechanism like the top compartment's.
>>98145725Dismiss however you want, I will die on the hill of that she-goat, I love how the face looks distinctly feminine without sacrificing the bestial silhouette, the bold pose works well, and while I do agree artisan guild has slightly more stylised sculpts than normal warhammer, especially today, I still think they fit within the leeway they have set over the years.
>>98145758Lame, mine is like 3 years old and I’ve had no issues with it
I’ve been staring at the last sergeant I need to paint for my Terminators and just can’t compel myself to do it lmao.
>>98145691For the beasman (female) the alt version with the breasts exposed is more tasteful than the main one with them loosely coveredI will not elaborate further
Get off my Maiden World.
>>98145813then don't: base it, apply a flat blue color all over and then spray it from above with a white to give the impression he's being beamed onto the battlefield.
>>98145240here Just like from 3rd ed codex
>>98145734>>98145757This. WFB models are jsut so awful that sqatting them and makng anything new improves the sales even if the range got haved
>>98145835Ok but would it have killed them to make new models for dwarfs and elves in CoS instead of completely dumpstering the army's main premise
>>98145835yeah, although i think most aos players would have preferred cities to remain a cosmopolitan melting pot, and just add new aos versions of the elfs and dwarfs. erasing several races from an army all at once was too heavy handed, although its not the first time (RIP pheonicium, tempests eye and living cities coalitions)
>>98145818It does emphasize the neck and the line of the shoulders better, which make the head stand out even more, but the fur offers a natural place for a complementary color.Going without the fur would require a fancier paintjob, like tribal/satanic tattoos or the top half drenched in bright red blood.
>>98145818Looking at the actual model I was going to agree, but the alt version with the exposed tits is missing the loincloth.
>>98145866So close to greatness, yet so far away
>>98145862>I'm trying to sneak around but I'm dummy thick and the clap of my asscheeks keeps alerting the guards
>>98145691Are there any tasteful female marine models?
>>98145866surely you can play with the files to have exposed top and covered bottom
>>98145866The silhouette without the fur is unpleasant IMO
>>98145866Holy mother of thick paint
>>98145871It is a 3D model so in theory you could slap the proper lower body with the proper upper body.But is not something I should be doing. Brother Vinni tends to make better lewd models, but the delivery times are rather random
>>98145872Kek
>>98145877Yes they are call sisters of battle and tired to pretend otherwise.
>>98145866Should have bigger breasts.That heifer belongs on a dairy farm.
>>98145899I don't want those.They aren't the same and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.
>>98145877No
>>98145866Reminded me of conan exiles for a sec dunno why
>one of the Ork sculpt designers for the new edition made Orks for the early 2000’s That’s neat
Is this okay to start a 500pts army?>Krieg command squad>Death korps x10>Death korps x10>Death korps x10>Heavy weapons squad>Death riders x5>Artillery team
>>98145944500pts games are for light fun, don't sweat the list, play what you like and have painted.
>>98145733>how tank heavyJust assume it will be as tank heavy as a functional guard army in 2k points can be as I got a 3d printer.
>>98144246>current mainAdmech>current secondGuard (haven't played them in a while though)>potential thirdHarlequins look pretty neat but I'm just deciding on a scheme
>>98145944just b urself
>>98145758>>98145835My problem with COS is that they are wy too expensive and way too complicated for a high count model army. Compere the gunners from WFB and AOS. I can imagine batch painting the Imperial Gunners. I cannot imagine the amunt of time you have to spend on the Freecitiy shooters.Plus the manticore leader not having a generic option was a grave sin.
>>98145670Yea, its so wierd that puritanicals specifically hate nudity above the actual most fucked up debauched shit or hype violent insanity
>>98145844>>98145849Cities are only for humans. Fuck dwarfs and elves.
Soo...there are three Leaders that can attach to Boyz in the Starter Set, but only two units of Boyz...?
>>98145998apparently in the core rules now every unit can have 2 leaders, but leaders now have designations of like main leader and sub leader, and every unit can have 1 of each
>>98145998There are models that aren't characters but support units or something like that and you can put them in the unit alongside leaders
>>98145980It does seem a bit timely with the video talking about the new Orks with how the main designer spoke on removing spikes and excessive detail from the armor bits so players can actually have a canvas to make them more how you want.
>>98145944>500 pts army?Yes.Very close to my own Platoon>Command Squad (proxy)>Commissar>2x DKoK 20 men blobs>5x Death Riders>Artillery TeamI'd like to add some oldschool engineers (don't think they even made it to legends), a macharius (when GW remakes it in plastic), a quartermaster cadre and for the lolz a centaur for the artillery team.
>>98145980>>98146019As also mentioned in the ork design videos: AoS designers work from a blank canvas: they make what the fuck they want
>>98146009>>98146015Yes, but there are three LEADERS (Warboss, BigBoss Kept you waiting, huh, Weirdboy) and two SUPPORT units (Painboy, Bannernob) in the Ork army. So you still have one unit left without bodyguards.Adding insult to injury, the three LEADERS are all ones you'd absolutely want to attach to a unit.
>>98146027the only thing that comes close to aos sculptors in terms of design freedom are like some of the new ctan and tyranids
>>98146019which is weird because AOS proves they can do Horde army well. GSG is horde army done well. Lot's of models with low commitment value exept for the leaders, centrepieces and big monsters.
>>98145819>they bang her later
>>98146038can the weirdboy or bigboss join the grots?
Is there an AI troll bot running around /tg/ asking for models in warhammer 40,000 threads that aren’t this general?It’s something I’ve been noticing for a while now when I skim the catalog and check in on the other threads.I’m not sure at this point because AI things are getting pretty good.Like pic related. It is still AI but it is serviceable.I know this place can be a mess so anons would rather avoid this general because of it.Anyways some fag told one of them to apply for a janny if it isn’t a bot and actually applies and it goes through then this board might be in for a wild ride.
>>98144130Hey everyone, collage anon here.Just a heads up, the collage will probably be out later tonight or tomorrow, had to deal with some real life stuff. Sorry bout that.
>>98144963> I make dog model> call it "Cat of Ferrocity"...as a joke> you're now upset because "ackshully it's a dog"GW doesn't care for your pedantics
>>98146045No. Weirdboys can only join BOYZ, BigBoss and Warboss can join BOYZ, NOBZ and BREAKA BOYZ
>>98145996> Fuck dwarfs and elvesCities are about fucking female giants now
>>98146049Take your time anon!Can there be a joke collage where feet must be included?The Tarantino collage challenge?
>>98146043The foot goblins at the bottom of the image are actually a refresh from WHFB, though they clearly kept the design for the rest of the Night Goblins, to the point I wouldn’t be surprised if they were supposed to be dripfed out until AoS changed plans.
>>98146107be the change you want to see in the world. start posting models with your feet with them. I’ll do it if you do it.
>>98146114I gotta clean up my hobby space and find my hobby knife.I do plan on doing that. Won’t be for a while.
>>98145930thighs
orks are gay
>>98144151That's pretty much what the Deldar do, especially since they are building their own golden throne.And they are known to use still living people as clothing, armor and/or furniture.
>>98146049God is a cool guy
I want a deldar psyker unit. Give them a big staff with pieces of a (still living) psyker nailed to it. The extra torture juice hides them from Slaanesh and allows them to tap into their otherwise sealed psyker powers.
Ok, this is my plan for first 1K list for 11th, Patriarchs of Ulixis played as Ultramarines w/ Gladius Task Force built around an honour guard theme, 995 points. Cato with the Victrix, Captain and Ancient with the intercessors. Hellblasters to kill vehicles, bladeguards and intercessors for objective control, victrix to slice and dice.Any suggestions on improvements, or does this look ok?
>>98146203Isn't that already a Nightlords unit thing?
So what if I bought the cheapest GW kits and make a bunch of horrors out of them?>it would be 1/4th the price of the daemons
>>98146057Nobz have synergy with Warboss, maybe the intent is to get people to buy Nobz? Never played Orks before.
>>98146238God damnit.I was picturing him in more pieces though. A limb over here, some organs over there, some guts draped over the sides...Maybe the Deldar psyker could use the human psyker as a puppet for his abilities, though? Like a psychic glove that disguises him from Slaanesh.Cool kitbash material regardless, maybe I'll try it one day
>>98146203the point of a faction's restriction regarding a certain aspect of the gameplay isn't to get a gimmick around it and do it anyway.
>>98146261>all archetypes and features belong to at least one marine factionJust do your thing bro.
>>98146203>deldar>psykerlorelet...
>>98146203Kitbash a Deldar Ynnari psyker?
>>98146283Don't DEldar already have Shadowseers, Felarchs, and Void Dreamers through their allies?
>>98146294Well, if you want to get technical. There are actually a few homunculi still alive from before the fall who still have immense psychic powers and just keep them hidden, but will occasionally go to real space to use them for experimentation and buoyancy practice on test subjects.
>>98146301>through their alliescorrectthey don't have it themselves
>>98146040>picrelI'm glad some people like this shit, because outside of the quality/skill I despise these. This isn't a wargame character, it's some DnD superheroes battle shit
>>98146245Speaking of horrors, is there any merit to having them as allies? They cannot regenerate due to no shadow of chaos. Would have to run as shadow legion to do that.
>>98146339>This isn't a wargame character, it's some DnD superheroes battle shitWhat game do you think you are playing here
>>98146294>>98146308All deldar are still psychic, it's just that the use of psychic powers is banned in Commoragh. There are still crones that predict the future, though.
>Space Marines still have Oath of MomentIt’s not surprising, but I think it’d be interesting if it was somehow different.
>>98146388Templars denounce that and get melee oaths.
>>98145980why did technology regress in aos?
>>98145734>>AoS makes the humans xenophilic expansionists looking lustfully on the other racesFixed
>>98146238Who finds this cool?
>discussion about aos happens>it is positive about aosThere will be anons in future threads pretending this never happened and that "we" have anal pains about that game suspiciously alike a TW newfag pretending to be an oldfag.
>>98146339>This isn't a wargame character, it's some DnD superheroes battle shitReminder that the previous game had anywhere from halfnaked Dwarfs who 1vs1 giant demons, a Conan the Barbarian with a magic warhammer, giant skeleton man with armies of undead, arthurian frenchies who drink power thirst from grails and hate ranged weapons so much that it deals less damage to them, 6-7 foot spikey armored vikings who worship demons, etc.
>>98141918I already bought it it seemed pretty available.
>>98146526You aosfags to this day still deny you liked the original fatcast or that you spent the first 2 years of AoS calling the whfb models 'potatoes'. Don't start because two can play at that game.
>>98146542I can't hate enough that eagle chariot.Reminds me of the wolf garbage.
>>98146519>>98146238Me, I love these guys.
>>98146430Happens all the time even in the real world. But notably the romans did the same thing at some point, well not to the same extent but both cities and Roman’s underwent certain reformations so that they could be more properly utilized in mass across different theaters of war.
>>98146430Probably collapses of whole civilizations. But I'm betting they're trying an alternative route given the WHFB nations failed against Chaos. I expected more pavises but I don't know who cares about Tilea.
>>98146554They were potatoes but fascist were great, just too cramped on releases and holding the spotlight too much over other factions.
>>98146574KEK
>>98146043You could argue that Nids do it equally well.
>>98146574man I wish they'd do a MTO run of blackstone fortress and all its extras
>>98146590eBay you fucking idiot. I personally found everything about blackstone underwhelming from the game to the models.
>can get Drukhari Ravager for half a price from a second hand>already assembeled in 90% and primedbutI don't play Dark EldarShould I bite the bullet? It feels way too good of an offer.Also does it qualify as quick and nimble)?
>>98145862As far as coomer models go I think it's tasteful enough to use>>98146626Half price from MSRP or with LGS discount? 50% from MSRP is not that great.
>>98146626It could be good for cutting up and using as a tactical rock.
>>98146626Learn the game before making regret purchases.
>>98146526They're always so obvious about it too>>98146554AoS in 2017 was still like 90% whfb models tourist-kun
>>98146643>>98146641it's pic relatedI kind of want it. It could have been fun Painting challange. Decisions Decisions.
>>98146647>AoS in 2017 was still like 90% whfb models tourist-kunAnd? Your inane response did not counter anything I said, unless you're going to push forth the laughable idea that the old WHFB models were fully embraced by /aosg/ (they weren't).
>>98146622>eBay you fucking idiot.
>>98146559There’s something really nice about seeing that saturated green/lime green for weapons and ornamentation.
>>98146698The models feel super busy so the green makes it feel like holiday campy horror to me.
>>98146718nta but Green reminds me of Demon hunters from WOW
>>98146696>pox walkers and plauge marines How retarded are you
>>98144901>>98145019We've already seen a coatl in aos, there's a small babh one on the slann's base. It looks like a normal snake with wings. No claws or godawful tww beak
>>98145032>Iron Hands if you want to run a bunch of RepEx’s, Dreadnoughts, and Techmarines to heal them.Not a fan of RepEx's but I AM a fan of the other two and other marine tanks... thanks!
>>98146679Do you think everyone was playing stormcast, khorne and flyreslayers or something? Sit this one buddy you don't know what you're talking about. Stick to larping as a grog on /twg/
>>98146698>>98146718>>98146731I grew up on The burning crusade so that mix of lime green + dark green skullage/contrast always makes me think of demon hunters and general fel soul energy as well. Thats kind of what I was channeling with those details. And green/red/blue is a nice color triad.
>mfw I am not prepared
>>98144764Im gonna try finish wazdakka for this one too ork bro, ill be painting it goffs though
Would you consider a norn emissary quick and agile? I mean it's basically a giant lictorthrope right?
>>98146057Weirdboy can still join breakas cant they?
That anon >>98146626Bassicaly...I am not financialy responsible.I will come by saying to myself how the Collages need more Xenos or some shit...
>>98146107>tfw have hair on my feetNo one wants to see that
>>98146758Stupid ass, it's beyond obvious you were nowhere near aosg in its first years, it was shitposting central and while the new armies caught heavy shit (deservedly so), the old stuff did too.And no I didn't say anything remotely resembling everyone was playing fyreslayers or khorne, some WHFB players made the jump to AoS but that doesn't change the fact that WHFB models were attacked up and down those generals. I was there and I saw it. So you can shove that narrative that you aosfags are noble wargamers straight up your fat ass!
Camera bros, i got a new phone and im fucking around with the settings atm, ive never had the telephoto option before until now. What settings do you use to take decent photos of your minis? Using an S26 ultra if that helps
>>98146838Just Boyz. It was like that in 10th too.
>>98145283>>98145289Based Chad
>>98146559>>98146698this is what that one anon who painted an entire army of unprimed CSM minis must have thought they would look like.
>>98146912No it wasnt
>>98146110We have concept art from blanche for the gits dating to 2015, so when aos as an idea had already been decided on for a couple of years
>>98146926Correct, I am retarded.I assume? that is no longer the case in 11th though, since they explicitly state Warboss and Bigboss can attach to Breaka Boyz.
>>98146936Probably, i mean not many ork players ran that combo as attaching a warboss was far more popular so i dont see why they would change it
>>98146853>and while the new armies caught heavy shit (deservedly so), the old stuff did tooSo people shat on shit that looked ass regardless of age? What are you even complaining about then?
>>98146838Femboyz can.
Getting a bit of anxiety knowing that im a few weeks time ill have a shitload of orks to paint, along with my already shitload of orks backlog im trying to get through. After wazdakka woukd it be worth painting mozrog and a kill rig? The exhaustion is starting to hit me
>>98146964slow down, set a more enjoyable pace, or you'll get swamped between the pressure of your current backlog and the inevitable hype for the flashier newer things they will reveal within the next month
>>98146964Why would having more toys to play with give you anxiety?
>>98146977Luckily most of the shit from the ork half is fairly ordinary so i dont have to smash through it. A new lootas / burnas kit being released straight after it will piss me off, particularly if its a different loadout altogether
>>98146985Too much to paint, so little time
>>98146993>A new lootas / burnas kit being released straight after it will piss me off

>>98144513gw only cares about cadia and krieg now.
>>98147042>1 CompanyLOL
>>98147042>ENTIRE Salamanders Chapter is on Armageddon (they only have 6 companies + 1 Scout company)>One Blood Angels company shows up>Blood Angels get the box artVulkan didn't die repeatedly for this...
>>98147042>Ultramarines>2 demi companies>will hog the spotline again by the end remember, behind every ultramarine feat there are dozens of successors chapters dying thanklessly for the job, and behind them millions of imperial guardsmen, who also have their own PR inequalities.
>>98147070Sure, let's put the green marines in a box against green skins.
>>98147042Oh hey the Marines Malevolent are here, yay!
>>98147082You are probably definitely 100% right and the choice was entirely about pitting Red vs. Green.
Marines shouldnt have been in the box at all, shouldve been guard. Marinefags are straight up insufferable, in the box every edition and then have the gall to constantly complain about it. Fuck those cunts, no guard bro would whinge about being featured in the starter box
>>98147042>iron hands I thought all the IH were at Cadia to help against the IW.
>>98147042and GW still can't be bothered to flesh out more than 7 ork color subfactions
>>98147042>black dragonsthese niggas are still around?
>>98147070>>ENTIRE Salamanders Chapter is on Armageddon (they only have 6 companies + 1 Scout company)Salamanders have only 7 companies because it's to reflect the 7 great settlements of Nocturne's surface.Salamanders still should have around 1000 marines, the 7 individual companies are just bit larger than in normal marine chapters.
>>98147107You know it's kind of funny that the first non blueberry box since dark vengeance is widely considered the most boring one
>>98147042>mix 1st and 2nd company of Ultramarines are thereShouldn't they all be reclaiming the 500 worlds? Or is that Titus job and geddon is Calgar's side quest?
>>98147122Yes. They are still canon.
>>98147042I find funny that there are chapters that send hundreds of their marines but calgar is the one in charge with only 100 ultramarines lol
>>98147042>Black DragonsGW fucking remembered they exists?Well damn.
>>98147042>Celestial LionsWhy are they coming back there? the last time they almost got Destroyed by "Ork Snipers"
>>98147151To be fair, isn't this Armageddon war taking place around the same time as the 500 worlds thing? Like the majority of Ultras and Titus are currently busy with protecting Ultramar so it does make sense that there's only 100 marines with Calgar.
>>98147133Ultramarines have obligations to the wider Imperium that they still must see to. So the 500 Worlds falls to Titus (Warden of Ultramar) and the Ultramarimes under his command as well as the Shield Chapters.
>>98147172Only one that got destroyed was their Chapter Master.
>>98147172>Celestial lionsDiscount Astral Claws
>>98147184Yes, what I'm saying I find funny is that they made Calgar the one in charge of all imperial forces istead of Tu'Shan who sent his whole chapter, or Logan who is there with ~1000 marines
Thanks GW
>>98147224>he thinks he can play with only core rules
>>98147209>what I'm saying I find funny is that they made Calgar the one in charge of all imperial forces istead of Tu'Shan who sent his whole chapter,Yeah that's fair.But we all know the only reason for that is because Calgar actually has a model that people can buy, unlike Tu'Shan.Who is still modeless after all these decades btw.There's only 2 Salamanders models currently, He'stan and Adrax Agatone.That's the entire Salamanders "army"/range for 40k.
Will we have to buy another codex to get another code for the 40k app?
Marines wouldn't even be that popular if they weren't in every starter box.
>>98147251Well now that's clearly not true.
>>98147251Marines are the >white>male>fighterArchetype of 40k, it's always going to be the most popular no matter what people think.
>>98147251>know sales numbers from my LGS>generic marines alone are more than 20% of all 40k related sales>if you add all the chapter stuff its 35%>kill team as a whole is next @ 13%>next highest recent starter-box army is necrons @ 9%
>>98147272>white>male>fighterYou got 2/3, not bad!
>>98147272I mean you could say the same for empire in whfb and they were lucky to make it into the top 5.Stormcast are an even more direct comparison and while they are either nr 1 or 2 in AoS depending on how you count a big part of that is poster boy support.
I've got an IG Artillery Team here that I'm trying to figure how I want to assemble. Anyone have any preferred big guns for it?

>>98147299I want that gun but for my MTO vostroyans
>>98145590Haven't painted several across the realms minis, the proportions aren't as bad depending on how you paint themThat is, if you can paint them without losing your mind
>>98147299You can use all options just dry fitting it. Don't even need magnets
>>98147291The white male fighter archetype of WHF is Bretonnian knights.And Stormcasts don't work because the entire AoS setting is soulless as fuck shite designed by committee instead of feeling like it was created organically by bunch of different creators.The reason why WHF works and AoS doesn't is because WHF was created by historical nerds who intentionally took inspiration from history and ancient kingdoms and then applied and mixed it to create their setting. It makes the setting feel more grounded.AoS doesn't have this because it's all vague fuckery about "muh realms" and "muh planes of existance" that are fuck huge, bigger than planet type things. Ad still on top of this, there's also at the same time an infinite amount of these "realms" out there. Which makes the setting feel way less grounded or even "familiar".So people instantly go "What the fuck?" and then don't bother.
>tfw the killbots reached their preset kill limit.
>>98147209Calgar over Tu'Shan or Logan makes some sense. Vast majority of marines there are from Codex chapters, and they don't have any experience commanding Codex-organized forces.
>>98147302cowboys?slasher horror references?shiny and chrome pale suicidal warboys?dok-centric frankenstein patchworks?space marines cosplayers?extra religious extra soccer hooligans?
>>98147339>The reason why WHF works and AoS doesn'tReminder that AoS is the one that sell and Wfb flopped twice already
>>98147339>The reason why WHF works and AoS doesn't is becau-ACKWhat is with you people and sperging the fuck out of aos today
fuck the hereticmarry the mutantkill the unclean
>>98147339I think that ultimately setting doesn't matter much when it comes to miniature salesPeople just want cool designs
>>98147339>Ad still on top of this, there's also at the same time an infinite amount of these "realms" out there.Yeah man 8 is the same thing as infinite
>>98147339>planes of existence>infinite amount of these realmsI never understand why people would form such strong opinions about things they clearly know nothing about. AoS lore is already shit by itself, but you don't know the literal first thing about it. You just made up another version of it to get mad about instead.or more likely, you're just repeating what somebody on /twg/ told you 10 years ago
>>98147463from a certain point of view it is
I missed 2 editions, and reading new rule format gives me fucking aneurysm. I heard that people already broke new edition, good.
>flgs only getting 6 boxesI'm not going to get Armageddon, am I?
>>98146261>deldar psyker...anon

>>98147361>eldar codex sold less than $100 in 2008What went wrong?
>>98147530Less than $100,000, you mean? That's pretty good for a rulebook released 2 years prior.

>>98147550>>98147530>why didnt people buy the old codex when the new one was outgee i wonder.
>>98147549there's a difference between a wild and neutral warp entity and warp entities born specifically from and for the suffering of your species.
>>98147361Post this image the next time some cocksucking eldar faggot claims nobody gives a fuck about the Imperial Guard.
>>98147594>eldar faggotthat would be a necronfag, please get your facts straight.
>>98147591True but I still think it's funny to point out
>>98147549They allow psykers, just not the use of psychic powers. And that’s only in Commorragh, and only because they don’t want shit getting inside the webway. Outside of Commorragh you can do as you please.
>>98147361WHF failed not because it was a bad or boring setting, it failed because GW was retarded constantly pumped the barrier for entry into the setting retardedly high.Yeah, no fucking shit the game system is going to fucking DIE, when it costs like 800+ fucking dollars for a newbie to get into the fucking game.Nevermind that then you'd be expected to build and fucking paint like 60 gorillion skeleton warriors or some shit. Which did not fucking help.And this was the STARTER army btw.
>>98144232>prolapse chaos warriorCan I use this as a Slaaneshi proxy?
>>98144246GenestealersBlood AngelsHarlequinsCustodesOrksMaybe I own too many models
>>98144426>Dark King Emps roflstomps the void fagon again
>>98147591Warp beasts aren't actually demons. They're biological creatures adapted to living in the warp. They're not made purely of warp energy. Like Enslavers who are definitely not demons.
>>98147549the no psychic shit is first of all a personal rule, and only secondly a societal rule for the structural integrity of commorragh.being a psychically active eldar makes you an extremely visible and tasty target for demonic attentions coming your way, so each and every dark eldar individually chooses to atrophy their psychic nature to lay low and not attract demonic attentions, which also makes them longer lived because slaanesh is syphoning less out of them, so they revel in more shit and need to feed less and can feed for longer with fewer issues.If an eldar were to choose to cultivate psychic powers without a way to shield its soul somehow it would either live an extremely miserable short life as slaanesh drains it fast and hard, meet an extremely gruesome end at the hands of a different demon in a more direct manner, or would require ungodly amount of "soul food" to replenish their withering soul and actively push off predatory demons.the richest of dark eldar could probably afford it.
>>98147659>They're biological creaturesthat's quite debatable
Has this book been released yet? If so, is there a PDF version available?
>>98147594EDS seethe
>>98147677Have they ever had demon saves?
>>98147629>[whfb] failed because GW was retarded constantly pumped the barrier for entry into the setting retardedly highThat's a symptom, not the cause. Nobody new was buying into whfb so gw had to find a way to squeeze more money out of the existing playerbase, hence ballooning army sizes and the whole three ranks bonus stuff to get grogs to buy more shit
>>98147690Yeah I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, so what?
>>98147688Out in october this year, sorry anon.
>>98147594>eldar faggot claims nobody gives a fuck about the Imperial GuardHoly shit it's persecution fantasy anon again. Did you try to claim that the mean old xenosfags wanted to remove guard from the game a few days ago?
>>98147721>persecution fantasy anon>are you the same person attacking us xenoschads such and such days agoThe breathtaking lack of self awareness is something else
>>98147705It was the main cause.It's just the typical corpofaggotry where they hike prices up purely because they can. It was just typical retardation where the beancounters somehow get to be in charge of the company and then fucking nose dive it to SHIT, because they are more concerned about lining their fucking pockets instead of making a viable product.And it is the EXACT SAME fucking shit that is happening with 40k now. It's even fucking worse with 40k but every retard who plays this game are unironic fucking goycattle who just keep eating the slop and clapping like seals begging for seconds even though GW is already pulling your fucking nose hairs out and making you par 65 dollars for a box of 10 space marines.
>>98147735Kek, not denying it are you faggot?
>>98147749You have definitely lost the plot if you think there is only one person here shitting on you xenosfags
>>98147700Yes. And the daemon keyword.
>>98147042>4 companies of Crimson Fistsdamn those guys filled back out fast
Sonthisbis going to be a filler week on WarCom and then next week they'll roll out the Faction Packs, right?
>>98147761It's not "shitting on xenosfags", it's crying about getting shat on BY xenosfags.>xenosfags said they want Guard removed from the game!>eldarfags said nobody gives a fuck about Guard!You sound like the mutant when he cries about people shitting on SW. Only at leas the mutant had actual proof people hated his faction, I've still yet to see these phantom eldar players saying the guard shouldn't exist.
>>98147594>nobody gives a fuck about the Imperial Guard.sounds like what a marinefag would say
>>98147771Primaris reinforced them back to chapter strength to the point now only Pedro and their first company are the only firstborn left
>>98147792>I've still yet to see these phantom eldar players saying the guard shouldn't exist.Who are you quoting? I never said this.
>>98147816Sure anon
>>98147594I got to agree with >>98147792I don’t think I’ve seen a single eldarfag pipe up about hating imperial guard. the only ones I know of would be the BLfag, and the necronfag. >>98147816hyperbole. >I’ve still yet to see these phantom eldar players saying no one cares about the guard

What's the best detachent if I wanna play thousand sons but mostly rubrics, termies and sorcerers with no tzaangors or any of that stuff?
>>98147820Meds now (and I don't mean the estrogen)
>>98147824Rumor is he's the model for the 40th anniversary alongside with a CF unique squad of veterans, is it next year?
>>98147829Why wouldn't you take tzaangors in a thousand sons army?
>>98147829Coven or Thrallband
>>98147835They ugly and cringe
>>98147840Naw, you are more ugly and cringe.
>>98147833I'm not the one bringing up imaginary fights with eldar players, apropos of nothing.
>>98147840But we are talking about tzaangors
>>98147744Do you own any slapchopped plague marines by any chance?Anyway, nope. 40k was just more popular than fantasy almost right out of the gate. The decline of fantasy can not be solely attributed to bloating army sizes, because 40k went through the exact same thing. Again, symptom not disease.There's an interview with alan merrett on youtube (by jordan sorcery I believe) where he talks about this quite a bit. They invested a lot in fantasy to try and bring it back up but it just wasn't selling anywhere close to 40k, and at a certain point they just couldn't justify it anymore financially. Keep in mind this was in the dark days of 2006-2016 where gw was stagnating hard, even 40k itself wasn't doing too hot. Apparently there was a real consideration of just cutting fantasy entirely and shifting to "becoming a 40k company".
>>98147845You think you are being stalked by a single imperial guard player.
>>98147857Sure anon
>>98147744The thing is because of all the dimwitted normalfags buying into it I've gotten three combat patrols of space marines for like 40% off because they buy, realize they don't want after assembling some, and sell at a steep discount.
just getting into tabletop, i went with admech cause i think theyre cool and picked up the combat patrol so i can play a bit with friends. I've seen people talking about them being fragile and finicky to paint, anything i should be careful of in particular?also what is your favourite unit
>>98147857now that would really be delusional. thinking you actually own models? what the hell is he thinking?
>>98147870I've heard the clear plastic flight stands, like the ones the Pteraxii are on, can be fragile.
>>98147834I meant within the next year, I do hope he's the 40th anniversary model
>>98147884Another dumb bitch from the peanuts gallery. Go buy an eldar codex, you faggot, maybe then they'll do something with the eldar.
I'm going to buy 3 fire prisms. They're going to be very good this edition with the new fly rules and toeing into terrain :)
>>98147897sorry anon, I only have one true love, and it isn’t eldar.
>>98147897Are you the dumbass asking why the old eldar codex didn’t sell after the new one came out? Fucking lol
>>98144246>Current Main armyVotann>SecondAbout to get into Orks with the armageddon box>ThirdNot sure what i would play as a third army to be honest nothing else really interests me these days. Maybe like Thousand Sons.Wish they would bring back Psychic phase.
>>98147925Bro..... Hygiene....
>>98147945sorry anon, I haven’t showered in a couple days because there was a tourney going on and I wanted to make the local guardfag retch from my smell while I was krumping his gits with my orks.
40k really is dead isn't it? In the current miniatures scene they can't just release new primaris marines every 6 months and expect people to stick around.
>>98145862I think what most people in this thread don't realize is that with 3d prints like these the details will soften with the actual printing. So the model's ass cleavage will be nowhere near as obvious on the tabletop.
>>98147744>>9814785411th ed armies will cost 15% more in terms of pointsPossibly because this will make battleforces seem better by comparison.
>>98148042you underestimate the unsatiable appetite of marinefags. even if they reach so much saturation people stop buying, they’ve made enough money to pivot and release other shit without worrying.
>>98146019I think they finally took feedback on why people weren't buying GSC/AdMech and were buying less Sisters. The Votann for example are much easier to paint than older recent models.
>>98148042They know better than you what they need to do, fat fuck
>>98146626>I don't play Dark Eldar>Should I bite the bullet? It feels way too good of an offer.I avoid buying armies I don't already have even if the deal is good because otherwise I'd be spending liek 400 bucks a month buying random shit like the Lizardman army spearhead for only 100 dollars or the entire Nachmund Fronteris terrain for only 108 dollars.But I guess if you want to plan ahead to buy a Drukhari refresh box in 1 year and have the ravager there, or use it as terrain or a prop where your army has blow it in half or something that's good too.
>>98147897NTA and not usually one for the weakling kin, but which one would you recommend adding to my collection?
>>98146844I mean you can buy it and resell it, if you want.
>>98147114The subfactions used to be the ork unit types so that's why. Like you didn't have Lootas, the Deathskulls Boyz unit could equip 15 heavy weapons. You didn't have warbikers, every Boy or Nob in an Evil Sunz unit could take a warbike.
What is it with imperiumfags seething so much about Eldar specificially? Any time you talk about the Eldar be it on /tg/ or fucking /v/ some retarded fag starts trying to stir up an argument. I don't get it.
>>98147241There is a Tu'shan model. It's called "Paint your favorite Captain model green".Special character models are SIDS and have been since 2nd edition.
>>98148122they spawned the tranny chaos god, that's reason enough to hate them.
>>98148122they can’t comprehend how someone can like a faction that isn’t immediately the best army ever that never loses, so they lash out in anger.
>hating xenosI hope yall realize the xenophobia of the empire is because it's a satirical hyperbole of a fascist dystopia right, and not something meant to unironically emulate
>>98148122For whatever reason elves live rent free in their heads. You saw it with the decal lolcow too, something about his hyper fixation on how totally MANLY and STRAIGHT the wolves supposedly are put him at odds with Eldar. There's a similar thing goin on here >>98148131, where anon's mind immediately goes to troons for some reason.
>>98146043GSC is a bad horde army because the fodder units are far too detailed. Anyone who has painted them knows what I am talking about.Coming from Tyranids, I bought one box of Neophytes to start GSC and be the time I finished the unit I decided "No, these are going to be a kill team I can't paint a hundred of these models"
>>98148122Eldar fans are frequently the ones to point out "Erm, akshully the Imperium is BAD!" when other people are talking about parts of the Imperiun they like. They're insufferable retards, driven by the fact their favorite faction has been relegated to unimportant background roles after an entire existence of failures.The major irony of this being that Eldar were the ones who spawned Slaanesh, which is what directly led to the current situation in 40k. They're so desperate to point out the flaws in other factions despite being fans of the most blatantly and abhorrently flawed faction in the setting. They're petty, obnoxious, and ignorant at best, and when you point this out they get just as haughty and defensive as the Eldar themselves despite having no ground to stand on.
>>98148141But im a fascist.
>>98148141just don't like em
>>98148122Dark eldar dont get much seethe if any at all
>>98148155>Eldar fans are frequently the ones to point out "Erm, akshully the Imperium is BAD!"I've literally never seen people say that outside of contexts where retarded imperiumfags are making unironic claims about imperium being morally righteous or some retarded shit like that.And even then it is usually Tau players who start arguing about the moralfaggot shit.I for one, don't feel any need to argue who has the moral highground in 40k because everyone being giga bastards against each other is the fucking point. I love my genocidal race supremacist space elves very much. Mon'keigh vermin deserve nothing but wholesale eradication from rightful eldar maiden worlds.
>>98148166>imperium being morally righteousSee that's the issue with you're thinking.The Imperium IS morally righteous.
>>98148172Lmao, ok, just ignore the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable bit of the lore, like the retarded capeshit tourist you are.
>>98148155>Eldar were the ones who spawned SlaaneshBut aren't CWE and Exodites the eldar who didn't want to partake in the hedonism and noped the fuck out of the ancient eldar empire? If anything the dark eldar should be the ones shouldering the most blame for gooning slaanesh into existence, since their society basically is just a unbroken continuation of that culture. Yet it always seems to be when people are talking about craftworld eldar that they say "Erm, akshully the elves are BAD because you made slaanesh!"
>>98148176Kek faggot
>>98148131Craftworld Eldar specificially are not the eldar whose behavior spawned Slaanesh. They are the ones who told other eldar that this shit was bad, tried to save as many of their people as they could and then fled when it became apparent that there was no stopping the doom of their civilization. Dark Eldar are the descendants of the culture whose behavior spawned slaanesh.
>>98148152i painte 80 of them a few years ago, they werent that bad
>>98148176Wow, look at the Eldar fan acting exactly as expected, and yet he still wonders why nobody likes him or his faction.>>98148177All of them were responsible, either from neglect or ignorance. They ran away instead of fighting it.It's like if the Siege of Terra occured and the loyalists simply ran away. They would be just as much to blame for what would have happened next.
>>98148179>Dark Eldar are the descendants of the culture whose behavior spawned slaanesh.They got away with it too so they kinda came out on top
>>98148177>>98148179Blaming Craftworld eldar for Slaanesh is standard behavior for disengenious imperiumfags. They either don't know the actual lore of the setting or just don't care as the primary reason for that blame game is so they can justify their retarded and unfounded feelings of moral superiority.
>>98148179>>98148191>These Eldar weren't responsible, they just ignored the issue until it was too big to ignore then ran away instead ofnfixing it!Eldar fans calling others disingenuous is peak comedy.
>>98148186You are the one pretending that imperium is somehow morally righteous when the lore of the setting explicitly paints the Imperium as a horrifying dystopia. I am not the one trying to portray the eldar as something they aren't, I fully own the fact that they are arrogant race supremacists, it is imperiumfags like you who for some retarded reason have to pretend that "um actually, the imperium is good!" when entire point of the fucking setting is that the Imperium is a horrifying shithole where human life has zero fucking value.
>>98148197Dark Age of technology humanity could have wiped out the Eldar and prevented slaanesh from rising but they chose not to, so really they are at fault.
>>98148186>>98148197You literally do not know the lore. It has been stated for ages in Eldar codexes that the Craftworld eldar descend from the ones who warned about the impending doom, and how the ruling classes who were part of the hedonistic pleasure cult shit ingnored those warnings, seeing the ancestors of the Craftworlders as foolish moral puritans.You are essentially complaining that the Craftworlders didn't stick around and die with the rest of their race when Slaanesh was born.
>>98148186>All of them were responsible, either from neglect or ignorance.Does this also mean the emperor is responsible for empowering the chaos gods by neglecting or ignoring the warlords and armies he created get corrupted? He ran away to go work on his science fair project instead of micromanaging 18 dudes.
It's cute when you all argue about being good guys
>>98148178shut the fuck up, decalnigger
>>98148201Another imperiumfag delusion right there. DAOT humanity was not capable of winning against the pre-fall Eldar. The pre-fall eldar were the undisputed masters of the galaxy for 60 million years, which is precisely why they fell into decadence and hedonism, as there was nothing in the galaxy that could challenge their dominion.
>>98148210You are being played and its very funny.
>>98148206Dark Eldar have always been unfathomably based. True egoist faction.
>>98148216Based eldar more like it
>>98148198The entire point is that the Imperium is forced to perform abhorrently awful acts upon itself as a matter of survival, making what would be considered terrible beyond consideration in modern society and unfortunate necessity when faced with Daemons and Aliens who want to destroy mankind as a whole.>>98148201DAOT was too busy fighting off the Men of Iron, and eventually became too separated to stop the Eldar BECAUSE of Slaanesh hampering Warp travel.>>98148202>They warned about it though!So they just pointed fingers and didn't actually do anything, and you think that's any better?>>98148204No, that fault lies on Erebus and Lorgar.
>>98148218Mon-keigh prey-things exists solely to serve as sustainance of the one and true master race of the galaxy.
>lorefagstruly the worst posters in this general
>>98148222Tight
>>98148222>the one and true master race of the galaxy.Is that what you like to call yourselves as you flee from any battle against a force stronger than unarmed civilians?
>>98148219>No, that fault lies on Erebus and Lorgar.Cool, then the fault of creating Slaanesh lies with the pleasure cults and not CWE
>>98148219>Actually thinking that even half of the shit the imperium does is "justified" due to muh chaos or xenosLolLmao even. The imperium is a dysfunctional feudal mess of it's own making, where human life has no value.
>>98148223My head cannon is the only lore. Can't make me think otherwise
>>98148229Why waste time fighting with prey when you can just go for the kill on the easy targets? The Dark Eldar don't need wage war on lesser races for territory in real space, they raid to harvest and the imperium is the great larder with nigh endless supply of prey for to sustain the apetitites of the Dark City.
>>98148232Incorrect. The Eldar did not fight against rhe pleasure cults to stop Slaanesh. The Emperor did fight the Traitors to stop Chaos.>>98148233You fundamentally misunderstand the setting, like most Eldar fans, and that makes you unworthy of arguing with any more. Feel free to crawl back to twitter or tumblr or wherever your ilk gather these days and complain to your friends about how you don't actually understand 40k. I'm sure the ignorance they share with you will help your feelings.
>>98148247>The Emperor did fight the Traitors to stop Chaos.yeah and he lost lmao
>>98148251Horus is dead.Slaanesh isn't.
What happens to an eldar soul if nids eat the soul stone?
>>98148253neither are the other 3 chaos gods which are the actual threats, not some dumb bald fuck with daddy issues lmao
>>98148259It ceases to exist as it's 'melted' down by the Hive Mind, empowering nearby Synapse creatures. The Doom of Malan'tai shows this best, as it consumed an entire Infinity Circuit before murdering every Eldar on that craftworld with impunity.
>>98148247In what why am I missunderstanding the setting, dipshit? By not buying the retarded tourist bs copium about how Imperium is totally justified in it's actions and everything it does due to muh xenos and chaos? The only people who spout that nonsense are fags that hate the idea of Imperium being just a legitimate dystopia, that is kept aloft solely by the inertia of it's sheer size. The horrifying dystunctional retardation of the imperium is the fucking point, tryign to blame the state of the imperium solely on muh chaos & xenos is missing the fucking point. Humanity in 40k has degraded and regressed into a state of ignorance, superstition and fanatical dogmatism, and the imperium is just as often to blame for it's shit state than it's foes are. It is a dysfunctional and tyrannical dystopia, where 99 percent of humanity lives in absolute squalor, and are ruled by noble families who have basically no checks and ballances on how they treat their subjects. The very structure of the imperium itself creates massive suffering for the imperial populace, and no xenos or chaos influence can be blamed for that.
>>98148268anon you're arguing with a tourist shitposter, just let it go
>>98148247>The Emperor did fight the Traitors to stop ChaosNope. By your own standards the Emperor is still responsible. You said:>either from neglect or ignorance>ignored the issue until it was too big to ignoreThe emperor knew chaos existed, he knew that some of his sons were dysfunctional retards. He was either ignorant of what his creations were up to or simply ignored it until it was too big to ignore.
>>98148278Yeah, I propably should.
>>98148267Man the dark eldar really come out on top in every way
>>98148268The fact you don't even realize that the Eldar are the reason the Imperium exists is honestly astonishing.Now go away, lowering yourself to screeching about 'tourism' is just plain desperate.
I kind of want a sect of chaos worshipping eldar THAT ARENT DRUKHARI that decided to serve one of the other 3 gods as a way of protecting themselves from slaaneshLike they serve tzeentch and in return he prevents them from getting slurped up or something.Well we already know some of them worship Khaine, who is just Khorne. Or he used to be. I don't know if that was retconned
>>98148283The Emperor knew the threat of Chaos and also knew that revealing it could have disastruous consequences. Do you think Kurze, Angron, or Lorgar would hesitate for a second to cast their lots in with the Chaos Gods, even if only to spite him?And all signs now point to the past 10,000 years having been part of the Emperor's plan, to cast out the Dark King and establish a new path of ascension to save Humanity.
>>98148289The Eldar didn't create men of iron, nor did they force DAOT humanity to act like cunts towards other alien races which exacted their vengeance of humanity during the age of strife. Also, the craftworld eldar tired to warn the Emperor about Horus but were ignored.
>>98148298DAOT Humanity collapsed because they became unable to traverse the Warp since it was becoming unstable leading up to Slaanesh's birth.And why would the Emperor EVER trust the Eldar?
>>98148292Khorne and khaine were never the same in 40k that's different from fantasy. In fact khorne "saved" khaine from getting eaten by slaanesh because he wanted to claim him for himself. And from both chaos gods trying to snatch him he was teared to a thousand pieces, thus getting shattered in a thousand avatars.
>>98148297So now you're saying that half his armies turning to chaos, his empire falling apart, mankind being thrust into a dark age, and his own state of living death were all according to keikaku? So he willfully empowered the dark gods and fucked the whole human race right in the ass on purpose. Very impressive.
>>98148302DAOT humanity's collapse began before the warp storms. The rebellion of the men of iron preceded that.
Why are base sizes measured in millimeters, yet every other aspect of the game like shooting and movement is measured in inches?
>>98148308Not exactly that, no. Some of those that turned traitor clearly weren't supposed to.>>98148311And the Warp storms are what dealt the killing blow. DOAT Humanity would have survived the Men of Iron, if they had beenable to coordinate properly.
>>98148292There are like 3 kinds of Chaos Eldar >Chaos Eldar who have devolved into bat like monsters>Crone World Eldar who are straight up worshippers of Chaos, either undivided or one of the major gods>Crone World Eldar who during the Fall became Daemon PrincesRemember in Asurmans backstory he spends several years after the Fall in some temple and outside there are eldar cultiusts who sacrifice people and just mad people just in the streets so it wasn't a 'everyone died all at once on every world' but a more drawn out event.
>>98148292Chaos Eldae don't exist. Any Eldar who utilizes the Warp too heavily is instantly killed and devoured by Slaanesh.
Chaos Eldar and Chaos Xenos by definition always was a shit idea.
>>98148352>Chaos Xenos a shit ideawhy?
>>98148352While incredibly stupid I enjoy nurgle orks
>>98148324Doesn't the Path of the Dark Eldar series also have mortal servants of each of the chaos gods show up among the Eldar?
>>98148361Yes but they're not aware they've been corrupted by chaos. Also there's Nurgle corrupted Mandrake kings which I think iis soft retconned since Mandrakes are implied to be delar possessed by shadow daemons
My Admech Armageddon box arrived today. Happy with it. Read the Skirtarius and Tech Priest novels by Rob Sanders to coincide with buying it. Not looking forward to sub-assembly hell. /blogpost.
>>98148376Always a good feeling getting a new box. enjoy anon
>>98148332well they should because Tzeentch getting some eldar servants and sending them along with some thousand sons to do a thing and telling them they have to play nice together would be super Tzeentchy
Girk and mark are chaos gods. Its pretty obvious
>>98148390I'm still kind of sad the Yannri and Croneswords plot got shitcanned. Could have been cool seeing Yannri strike a deal with TS to invade Slaaneshs Palace to retrive the last sword in exchange for the Rubric being undone. Eldar and Tzeentch both famous for not keeping up their end of the bargin and trying to manipulate each other, could have gone a lot of ways and having chaos gods war with each other would be cool.
>>98148408Ynnari as their faction has all the elements to become a cool shit... But James and Gav killed them without remorse and I suspect they are planning the complete annihilation of the subfaction too.
>>98148408I never liked that Ynnari could just undo the rubric. That always felt like a feat that only Tzeentch himself should be able to accomplish.
>>98148414And the dark eldar rework will rise from the ashes like a 400lb man bursting from his overalls like a phoenix
>>98148414Yeah, I also like the idea of the Ynnari but the more I dig into their actual lore the less I like them. Like, they poised them perfectly to make established Craftworld, Harlequins, and Dark Eldar players all hate them and did nothing to try to set them up as their own thing instead making them borrowed assets with some weird leaders. No generic leaders is a fucking sin, too. They did it again with Corsairs and I don't know why they ever think it's a good idea to tie an entire faction to a single named character.
>>98147870Their aesthetic is a love/hate thing here. I love it. The Da Vinci-inspired Pteraxii and ornithopters are cool af.
>>98148426Could have a plot of Tzeentch empowering Yvraine to do tha, so she can bargin with the TS to war aganist Slaanesh to fulfill some larger scheme he had. Maybe try and empower Ynnari, but instead of Ynnari getting the souls, its Tzeentch all the eldar souls get sent to.
>>98148427Maybe the refresh will give us drukhari that worship the other chaos godsYou know what? bring back allies, let me run some tzeentch drukhari with some thousand sons, sekhetar robots, a few daemons and a chaos knight abominant and I'll be a happy guy
>>98148450I hate that and I hate you
Watching some 11th battle report and the marine player moved his repulsors sideways and then pivoted them or something...ssomething...someone to get more movement as opposed to moving with the tank facing forwards?
>>98148448"Ynnead turns out to have been Tzeentch in a hat all along" would be a good way to wrap up the Ynnead plotline, if they care to.
Thinking about loading flashgits into a battlewagon and just sending it down the middle.
>>98148457you shouldn't be able to get more movement with sneaky pivots, you have to pivot around central axis.Unless by "more movement" you mean he no longer had to pay the stupid turning tax for going around terrain, because yes that's the whole point.
>>98148426He cant win every time. Thats just boring
>>98148388Thanks Anon. I have a massive backlog, but I also have a weakness for stuff I find cool.
>>98148152Honestly best thing they could do for GSC is take the heads from the Necromunda Malstrain spure and put them in a box with Hive Scum
New>>98148502>>98148502>>98148502
>>98148376How are those novels? Love Admech but I never really gave their books a shot
Newfag hereAs I understand, Blood Angels got some rules in this new release box, right? I saw someone say the rules for the Orks in the box will change after launch, will the same apply to BA?
>>98147552Based
