Marines Malevolent are the Astartes at their purest form. They are what Astartes generally would be if left unattended, and made to do one thing. They have only Goals in mind and failure is not an option in any circumstance.

Think of Thunder Warriors, without any of the ailments. They are Weapons of War to enact Emperor's will.

Now that we have the full picture for the new detachments, DP and dispositions, what's your call, /40kg/? Are any 2-1 or even 1-1-1 combos gonna pop off or is everyone just gonna default to the 3DP standbys? Are the assymetric missions gonna be a clusterfuck, or maybe a wet fart of Purge the Foe mirrors? Is any underdog faction gonna pop off out of nowhere and terrorize?
>>
>>98189806
For me to like 40k as much as aos they would need to uncomplicated the scoring, add spillover wounds, randomize turn order, and most importantly halve the ranges of every gun in the game, with the exception of stuff that's already 18" or less.

I don't think any of that is likely though
>>
>>98189839
The fact that they made the datasheets balanced around BW statwise is so retarded. Everything else has a massive opportunity cost. Would say the same for BA with LAG but fuck em, they got good base Marine datasheets anyway.

effectively they have done this but the fix to this is probably going to cause more issues down the line which ends up reverting the change.

Biggest hint so far might be a Death Guard Captain; Crysos Morturg. He was a Devastator who would see casualties as acceptable at any cost and had a strike cruiser named "Malice". Mortarion hated him for his methods and that's the reason he was on the chopping block on Istvaan, despite his unwavering loyalty to the Poop King. He would be saved by the Mechanicum, and would be forced to become a Blackshield Captain sent to Ghoul Stars, possibly having cells of Iron Warriors.

Biggest giveaway is that Crysos Morturg was written by Nick Kyme, the author behind Marines Malevolent.

Carcharodons supposedly have world eater and night lords introgression, but their traits and history clearly point to them being a loyalist splinter of the Ashen Claws (Raven Guard).

>>
>>98190127
I considered the space marine head sprue as well because it's cheaper, but many of them are just variations of the MK.X helmet and a shit ton of bare heads. I find the tactical box is better because you got 3 MK.VI beaky helms and 10 MK.VII helmets. Plus, you get all the extra older shoulder pads and decor bits, and a backpack banner (which every intercessor kit should have imho). It's just a really good kit to cannibalize for parts.

AoS has always had philosophy of “models first” and not wanting to invalidate the way you build your dudes. My understanding is that in 4th they took that too far and now it doesn’t matter if you build your dudes with spears or swords, they have the same profiles regardless.

This is correct, but what makes it worse is that arbitrarily some units *do* get to have different rules for spears vs. swords.

In 10th they made it so that you’re basically dumb if you don’t build your dudes with the strongest gear you can bring by removing war gear cost. You can still make your dudes with the less strong war gear, there’s just no benefit. In AoS you don’t have rules for your gear for that to be a decision.

Joke's on you, that gets BLAST. Either way, I'd rather suffer that small bit of incongruence than give up one of 40k's actually better design decisions in having specific niches for different profiles. The sole meaningful variable across attack profiles in AoS is Rend, outside of that it is functionally equivalent to every weapon having a Killingness profile.

Hell, if the lack of collateral on really big guns bothers you that much you can just add a patch for the most egregious edge cases: S >= 3T deals damage as mortal wounds. There's your spillover. Does it buff lascannons and greatly nerf humans and eldar and Tau? Yeah, but that's their fault for not being Marines in the Marine game.

Holy shit all the new detachments suck ass. I thought we'd be moving towards a more classic Warhammer with more customisation and random elements alongside a bit of modern streamlining - instead it's the same, boring, clinical crap pandering to competitive fags, afraid to make fun rules for armies.

Fuck this hobby, probably have to make the move to Horus Heresy at this point.

>>98190977
I'm just so tired of the variance in options and author favouritism. I don't even think it's intentional: there are only a small number of guys writing the rules, so you either get a guy who plays/understands/likes the vibe of your army and you get fun stuff, or you don't and he phones it in. And whether you get it or not is basically just random.

But all these cries about 'oh DP points are great because you can balance and customise better' and then you look at like, the DG and EC ones released on the same day and you realise how little that means. Rules are a tertiary product for GW.

In theory it is true. In practice there's so few 1DP detachments that there's not a lot you can do with them. I suppose this will be fixed with the codexes but still.
>>
>>98191011
yeah, Space marines are boring so nobody wants to buy it. also people realized 10th edition is horrible and 11th edition doesnt do enough to change that.
>>
>>98191018
The Black Templar detachment preview for th custom Emperor's Champion got me excited that they would have a bunch of interesting niche options like that and then no other faction has anything at all close to that.
Maybe very will in the codexes when they come out, but these indexes are very dull and perfunctory.

On a side note, I am very annoyed that all of these rules that we have seen are not actually the full rules because half of them are going to be hidden in the app as advanced rules.

The BT Emperor's Champion detachment was honestly many steps in the right direction, highly customizable. Yet it only applies literally to ONE MODEL IN THE ARMY.

The rest of the detachments were a snoozefest, it's like you have one semi-powerful ability and they build a filler detachment around that. They could just add it straight on the datasheet for a points cost or something.

If tacticals survive and keep the option to have heavy weapons, you have that.

I'm not very optimistic about that either considering how much they are pushing intercessors again. Which I don't get because conceptwise they are just tacticals but boring. At least 30k tacticals can be 20 man strong to compensate. The saving grace will be if ints can ride rhinos this time.

There are two little Timmy memes on 4chan:
>/tg/ specific: little Timmy is a kid, usually an obnoxious smartypants one, whose parents treat the LGS as a daycare and who plays 40k or MtG or some other nerd hobby game via his parents buying him shit. And probably annoys you during game time because of it.
>other: Timmy is a generic white guy, usually posted as part of some sort of racial demoralisation campaign wherein he is beaten up or cucked by black men, by a Latino or Indian Nazi from /pol/. Comes from a tiktokker who made a video like 'if your bf white you single to me, what timmy goin do' who was then shot by a white man for harassing his gf

Hey anons.
I plan to sculpt fan made stls of marines.
Sort of as a new hobby but related to this hobby.
I plan to mimic the primaris marine proportions.
And keep the detailing in a “less is more” way like I’m sculpting for plastic injection models ten years ago.

Then upload them for free to download on mmf and cults and thingiverse but there will be a donation link for tips.

Is that a good way to avoid gw sending his lawyer hit squads after me?
There is a guy who made “not imperial guard tank” proxies who basically did that and seems just fine.

And reptilian overlords sells not!marines but they look like thunder warriors just fine so maybe there are more steps I can take?

Not pictured and only built and primed with differing stages of having some basecoats on: 30 cadians, 10 kasrkin, 40 kriegsmen, a second rogal dorn, two more leman russ, 10 death riders and artillery team.

It's easier to make a 5x man sprue with no extra weapons and shove 2 in a box than to make multiple different sprues with options where every bit is supposed to fit with the rest of the range.

If you mean weapon option wise, then yeah these are on the same page as the tactical squad.

But that's the vast majority of kits ever. Marines with separate torsos are an exception, not how the average kit was built. Hell most kits outside of the basic troops have always been monopose metal blisters.

>>
>>98191449
>vast majority of kits ever
I think that's a bit disingenuous. Yeah plastic kits started as troops and marines, but separate torso was the standard. Metal models are a different story, and frankly point at a certain regression in some parts.

So to answer the original question if "how is it easier for GW"; making full multipart asks for more design time and work, and why we don't see separate torsos much anymore, if at all.

As to why marines lost their extra weapons, it's likely because they are the most produced and so cutting costs increase the margin significantly.

You can also look at necrons, nids and soon orks, whose base kit is still the same sprue as their starter box, with an extra sprue thrown in (bar necrons iirc). It's cheaper.

Now replace that space marine with a grey knight. Not very funny now is it?
I kinda like the idea that Grey knights are only immune to chaos due to continually conducting cleansing and purification rituals. Now them have fallen because they never slack in their rituals not plot magic. Using SoB blood to purify yourself is peak 40k and if Grey Knights shouldn't do it, some other imperial factions should. Inquistors seem a good choice, they have the power to have Sobs put too death and are at risk of falling to chaos

Many older kits like boyz or the old cadians has split legs and torsos but they weren't really posable. Some like eldar didn't even have that. The vast majority of WHFB kits didn't either. But in any case my point was about the the concept of units being 5-10 dudes with 1-2 special guns per 5 being all over the game even in newer units so all the people argueing that tacticals need to disappear because they work like that make no sense. And what baffles me is seeing people defend intercessors for some reason when they offer nothing tacticals do better in either 40k or 30k.

It stems from AoS making warscrolls as a standalone and separate pack of rules for a specific unit forcing weapons to become a trait of the unit instead of a modular piece of wargear that units can select. In 10th they made it even worse by moving weapon skill, ballistic skill and attacks to the weapon itself instead of the model.

I don't understand what GW is thinking with hazardous. Why should it be so much more punishing on Vehicles than on infantry?

>>98191623
The split wasn't just about pose, it was easy of building and to allow for extra bits/upgrades. The vraks militia from FW use the base cadians, to name one.
>eldar
There were guardian kits with split torsos

Frankly the content of the kits don't matter when you just look at what GW can do and chooses not to. It's a kit of plastic sprue, where they pick the price and how many sprues to put into a box, it's indefensible that we don't have fully customizable kits. It's a choice.

As to fanboys & other types of retards who just want bigger marines with as little option as possible because it's just a gamepiece for their combofag list that they might not even paint to begin with, I understand being baffled. People are weird and not in a good way.
