>>98205095Nomad
>>98205095Yes to both.My Kabal and Coven have a shattered realm of an abandoned and eroded webway palace complex converted into a museum of trophies arcane and still living.My Wych Cult have a vast labyrinth flooded with memory-sapping mists they hunt through and spill forth into Realspace to raze and reap new victims to hunt through the maze and are constantly on the prowl
My admech have an Ark Mechanicus that they use as a mobile forgeworld, so nomads.My SoBs are based on the hive world of Reno IVMy BTs I have no idea about, I have not really thought of it. Probably just fleet based with a lot of worlds they recruit from as they pass
>>98205095bros I can't think of a paint scheme for my nids
I like orks :D
thread was made as I was typing this and walked away>we will punish players for taking 3 or 6 of something, please buy a spread of things!cha'ching>we are bringing back HEROHAMMER! everyone gets a bloodthirster tier character(marines) with a retinue they can make sure they can live until turn eleven!cha'ching>last edition vehicles were GREAT right? RIGHT?... now 11th edition is going to be GREATER!* (buy different stuff now or else)cha'chingI think I'm going to run 1k lists when I get back into the game. It'll consist of blanket tyranids with spinefist gaunts and hormagaunts. Roughly 4 termagaunt units, 3 hormagaunt units, prime with whip+alien cunning and a ripper swarm to finish points.Swarms at 1k are harsher than swarms at 2k. People cannot take their biggie boys so easily and they'll lose if they do it at 1k. I'm starting to think 1k is the way to go. I'll warn people about the list before playing at the start until they get to know my playstyle.>better to move around 142 models instead of 300+ models at 2k.
>>98205095My armies always get their fortress on their own planet or moon it's how i plan the bases.
>>98205123Always thought the 3rd edition codex cover art had a good looking scheme.
KINDKOLOSSALKUSTODESKNOCKERS
I hope we get more stuff on the Malstrain in Necromunda. Their range looks super cool, shame it's very small though.
>>98205134Imagine how fuckin long that would take to paint an entire army in that scheme
TINYPANZERRELEASE A SET OF REPLACEMENT TREADS FOR THE HIPPOGRIFF AFV AND MY LIFE IS YOURS
This might be a long shot but does anyone here have the really old metal gsc hybrid models? Ive seen someone selling them on marketplace and thought it would be cool to use them as proxies in my gsc army, just swap out a few arms with hand flamers and use them as flaccos, was just wondering if the size comparison from those models to the current acolyte hybrids was quite different
Im confused anons, which group is it I am supposed to blame everything on?
So right now we're supposed to just sit with our thumbs in our asses while waiting for points to be shown? I don't get what I'm supposed to do with detachment information but no points for list building.
>>98205179anyone who's not us
>>98205182You could play your last game of 10th. Think up some fun kind of send-off.
>>98205141I feel like its setting the groundwork for a GSC update/revamp. I could see GW swapping out some kits so they aren't pure "spacesuits and mining tools" and some are more ramshackle citizenry uprising stuff. The bit in particular about the tech priest is interesting in this regard.Basically the tech priest behind the malstrain is technically long dead, but the blobmonster the og genestealer became as the malstrain patriarch reconstitutes a mental back up of him out of infected flesh so no matter how many times he is killed by gangers or cops a new copy will rise out the soupy run off of the patriatch-thing.Which seems like taking the whole "Kellermorph isnt a person but genetic foresight recreating the same idealised folk hero on multiple worlds" idea to a whole new level. The idea of a Primus a space marines could pop in his fist like an apple just jumping to or growing a new body is a real "this isn't a snake, its a hyrda" type power scale uptick for GSC. Makes them fit more as a threat and not just background noise if they are so hard to burn out of a planet.
RepostanSince GW merged engineers and grenadiers I wanted to see what an updated engineer might look like. The head and helmet are placeholders and the kneepads will need to ajusting (size & position), but I like where the photo-montage is going.Shoulder pads are based on the old Jes Goodwin imperial army and I'd like to put more old krieg inspiration into the design (hence the lense cover)R8 my shit, inputs/opinions welcome
>>98205186I didn't play any games of 10th. Or 9th. Or 8th. I'll never get an army finished.
>>98205134Oh that does actually look pretty good, can't paint nearly that well though
>>98205166To that level in that pic? Sure. But that scheme slap chops extremely well. Undercoat black, gray scale, contrast color, highlight, small details, done.
>>98205188>I feel like its setting the groundwork for a GSC update/revamp. I could see GW swapping out some kits so they aren't pure "spacesuits and mining tools" and some are more ramshackle citizenry uprising stuff.That could be kinda neat.I know it's not 100% accurate but I could see malstrain become a stand-in for Ymgarl genestealers. What I mean is that there used to be special rules for Ymgarl where they used to have the ability where they just spontauneusly mutate traits on the tabletop.Which could make sense and be possible with the malstrain due to their damaged genetics which would also make sense to be unstable due to the said genetic damage.Not really sure how they'd bring malstrain to regular 40k from a lore perspective though. Since from what I understand from reading their fluff, all of malstrain are currently confined to planet of Necromunda only.I guess they could do the typical genestealer thing where some malstrain genestealers stow away on a space ship and then get spread to other planets that way.
People keep calling IW fans autistic but whatever is wrong with them pales in comparison with how obnoxious and self-policing Raprots fans are online.
>>98205255Is there a slapchop method for that scheme?
>>98205267I just find any csm fan to be a bit autistic desu
>>98205267>raptorsI've yet to see one good take on making tacticool marines
>>98205267I have literally never seen a raptors fan anywhere. Where are their memes? Their shit posts? Their models?
Is there a point when you just decide that something is way too detailed to use a brush for and just use a fine tip pen instead? Thinking about doing a bunch of really small checkers that way
I want to get a predator tank for my death guard, but I do not trust James to not pull the rug on it.
>>98205280God help me, r*ddit.
>>98205268The uh… slapchop method as usual. Prime black, grey scale with mechanicus grey, administratum or wolf grey, then white scar on the highest ridges. Then black templar contrast for the black parts, then whatever colors you chose for the other parts, then I’d do final edge highlights and the red details from the scheme, then small details like eyes and other particularly small parts that need detail, should be good to go.
>>98205095>nidsPure normads of course.
>>98205095>TQtravel as needed, though mostly within the Segmentum Solar.anyway gonna start painting the thunderhawk tomorrow, not sure which parts I want to be red, overall it will be black/grey but obviously needs more than that. weapons probably red? like the added missile housings n stuff. attack wing panels?
>>98205274Can confirm, we're either drooling retards or top 1% pro painterst. csm fan (retard)
>>98205267>people ascribe personal identity to the factions you likeForget em, anon, they’re mentally ill. If you’re enjoying the hobby then you’re doing it right.
>>98205295Chaos isn't as hard on the chopping block as loyalists but it's not like they're going to make you wait very long for a codex. Just wait for the CSM one and if Predators aren't Legends'd, you're probably good for 3+ years
>>98205174Only partly related but have a look at this storehttps://www.hybridminiatures.com/shop/SCI-FI-c174066587next couple pages mostly
>>98205268If you're going to be so AI brained you can't use your eyes to copy a color scheme, you could save the embarrassment and actually ask AI.
>>98205267>>98205279Come to /wip/, we have a cool Raptors guy who fixes Primarislop vehicles and paints really well.
https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/articles/adciuo3f/saturday-pre-orders-new40k-rules-card-packs-and-more/>32 meribucks>18.75 poondsWas the cardboard as expensive as you expected it to be?
>>98205370So do the little lumps on the sides also count for the terrain area?
>>98205370They are unironically cheaper than the etsy and ebay third party options.
>>98205370$37 for cardboard? in this economy?
>>98204978Even if they know, that they will die in horrible ways, eldars keep fighting. Mega-hell is their fate, and until they fight and help each other, they live. This is their struggle, their light in the grim darkness universe, where everyone want to kill them and sack their remained homelands. Before 2017 most factions have simular grimdark plot, but 40k primarchslop ruined it with le hope shit
>>98205360It’s a real problem isnt it? This bitch at my work uses chatgpt a lot. I swear to god half our conversations have her saying “like, how do you know that?” or “how’d you come up with that”. I explain how I know or how I deduced or created something and she looks completely dumbfounded that a person could reason their way through a live problem.
>>98205268Not slapchop but close enoughhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhEEu7vDPYY
>>98205399What's crazy is I felt uncreative recently for getting obliterated at Jackbox (long story) but these servitors make me feel like de Vinci.The worst part is, for being so obsessed with AI, they have no idea how it works. If they did they wouldn't rely on it so hard.

Post models and wips
>>98205335Honestly i feel like it would just look like shit doing that particular 3rd ed nid scheme in slapchop, hence why i asked, just curious if someone had done it that way before>>98205360Post models i wanna see your amazing schemes anon>>98205408>>98205412Ill sus these out thanks anons
>>98205532This isnt /wip/ fag
>>98205370This is gonna be rough in dollarydoos
>>98205539Post your finishededed models then!
Has anyone here played a game of 11th yet? Theres a few real competitive players at my lgs that have been playing it for the last week or so and refuse to play 10th now
>>98205509>Horus Rising>False Gods>new
>>98205532My very first painted model I did yesterday, it’s shit, but it’s my shit, and I think I’m addicted.
>>98205459>competitive youtubers and influencersThere's your problem. 40k was never supposed to even be a "competitive" game and the comp scene makes up only 1-2% of players and hobbyists. The fags you're talking about will pretend to be excited about anything because they are literally paid to influence you like that and draw viewership to their channel to sell "boot camp" courses on how to play like a tourneyfag.
>>98205532I now want a tamed xenos beast that's like a fuckhuge bumblebee they use to farm mountains of honey. Also because I'm tired of the "corpse starch" meme. I want my guardsmen to eat rations of various qualities depending on their regiments.
>>98205551>very first model>painting it seperate from the base Im a little suspect of it being your first model
>>98205551Top tip, dont use your in built camera app for minis, it's adding a shitty filter over the image and blurs everything togetherGreat for faces, not great for minislooks good tho
>>98205551>>98205563I'm sure he watched all the videos about painting before going into it>base separate>painted trims on TS first
>>98205569nta but there's nothing wrong with that
>>98205573Not only is there nothing wrong with it but it's actually good, which is why I pointed it out after claiming he likely informed himself before getting to it.If I was shitting on him I'd have called him a niggerfaggot, you would have known it was an attack.
>>98205499Stop trying to convince morons.
>>98205552>to sell "boot camp" courses on how to play like a tourneyfagI got an ad for one of these and the very idea of it disgusted me to my core
>>98205551Gold looking very goldey
>>98205583You can call me a niggerfaggot too, just for fun. And yeah I’ve been watching tons of YouTube. Still feel woefully under equipped with paints and need to get more.
>>98205545We have tried some psuedo-11th with 10e points but there's some rules weirdness that will need the expanded appendix/FAQ from the app updates to clarify a few things. Right now it feels like a total shooting gallery and hidden is a nothing burger. But we played without the "go to ground" rules so that might make a difference.
>>98205499>>98205614nta, this wiki ignores the study that showed there are less insect splatters because windshields in the last 25 years have gotten better at deflecting them than splattering them
>>98205707Im interested to try it out, honestly thought the changes to cover would make it less shooty but i guess i was wrong. Are they particularly strict with the terrain thats used?
>>98205499GOOD. bugs are ICKY and crawl all over my body and stuff when I go hiking BLECH
>>98205688To be fair art is mostly observation. You don't paint good looking leather if you don't know why leather looks the way it does
>>98205499Dumbass.
>Apparently Typhus lost his shit when Mortarion called on him to help him attack Ultramar because Guilliman got revivedDo all Champions of Chaos hate their daemon primarchs?
>>98205731Yeah, the mechanical side on it has been bitchslapping me. I’m sure I’ll improve with practice over time. I could feel myself getting better as I worked on this one mini. 9 more left in the box will be interesting to line them up when I’m done.
>>98205737Typhus is a unique case because he was carrying DG for 10k years while Morty moped, then Morty's like>Girlyman's back let's gooooooMaybe Kharn thinks it's all so tiresome but he's not blatantly insubordinate.
>>98205744You also did start with thousand sons, so you can thank yourself for that.Good call still on sticking to a squad.
I can not wait until this arrives tomorrow and completes my Knight House. 2x Armigers, 2x Questoris and 2x Dominus. Fuck yeah!
just finished my first model from my second army. her name is Effi <3 and I love her very much
>>98205737Typhus and Morty just genuinely hate each other due to Typhus selling out the DG to Nurgle during the Heresy. Morty holds grudges that last forever so their relationship has been horrible since then.
>>98205356This might be a hot take but retraux models still should be reasonably sharp. Lumpy models are a combination of modern castings using very old molds, or the absolute worst sculpts that were barely a thing even in oldhammer. Casting sharp edges wasn't space age tech in the 90s.
>>98205532I don't think I'll have the build finished before Armageddon releases, but it will be close. At this point it's just riveting on the main fuselage, finishing the landing assemblies, and then the rotor blades.
>>98205787You're being sarcastic, right? IDK, never liked knights.>>98205792Falling in love with a tyranid might be a bad idea, they don't tend to live long.
Feels good being an ultramarine chad, luv seeing all the seething from the rest of the beta chapters when they realize we are the main good guys of the entire story and get all the focus/new releases.
>>98205798looks awesome anon
>>98205798looks awesome already, anon. my chinork kitbash seems downright lazy compared to that
>>98205798Anon, youse a right proppa Mek!
>>98205532
>>98205752Also tbf, hasn't Typhus always been kind of a dick that has butted heads with Mortarion often in the past too? Like even during the Great Crusade days their "friendship", I guess you'd call it, was kinda eh.Also also, it doesn't help that Typhus basically betrayed the DG and Mortarion since it was Typhus who lured their ship into shitty spot within the Warp which then caused Nurgle to start corrupting and inflicting his plagues onto Mortarion and the DG. Which kind of established that Typhus just doesn't care about Morty or what he says at this point, due to power literally going into Typhus' head since he is arguably on the same standing in Nurgle's army as Mortarion who is a daemon prince, while Typhus is still just a "mortal" in sense.
>>98205802>You're being sarcastic, right? IDK, never liked knights.Nope. I genuinely love Knights. Everything from the Code Chivalric and honorable houses and deeds to things unexplored in game like Sacristan Crawlers the size of Baneblades and Dropkeeps. The idea of a hyper elite army of giant mechs controlled by conditioned nobles is very appealing to me.
>>98205802>they don't tend to live long.so no regrets about smashin and never calling again. by the time I develop a bad conscience she's already being dissolved in a pond of acid
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98205819Nice anon, real tasteful.
>>98205819>>98205838Thanks! It was a really fun model to paint. Too bad they're kinda bad on the tabletop.
>>98205806>proud of being ultramarines player>doesn’t show off his ultramarineslol
>>98205465The Monday reveal will probably be 40k at least, even if it's just the reveal of the combat patrols
Just paid 40$ for gen 1 citadel painting handles in both regular and XL, don't @ me.
Are Eldar ticklish?
>>98205267Raptors glazing unironically originates from Youtube comment sections and the fucking LE EBIN REASONABLE MARINES meme. Raptorfags are annoying because they all are normie tertiaries. But there's even something much, much worse:Salamanderfags
>>98205940Get salamanderin'
>>98205346Is it bigger or smaller than you thought it was going to be? How many marines can you fit inside of it.
>>98205267I'm gonna say something that sounds weird in here but stop caring what other people think. Especially in a misinfo-fest like this general.
>>98205978I've seen a couple at big meme events around Christmas before, so I knew the size to expect. As for models inside... depends? on their bases.. maybe 10-12 lmao. fairly sure if they were actually standing normally inside it COULD fit 30.. but it would be very cramped.
So let me get this straight. I have to pay more points the more I take of the same unit? What about fucking marines with 20 fucking land raiders to pick from?
>>98206013Just take less Land Raiders bro
>>98206013SOME units will be priced that way. not all.
What are the odds on getting the MFM tomorrow?
>>9820601950/50either we get them or we dont
>>98206015Im itching to see what they fuck up. I just want to run terminators and a few other dudes. If I have to pay 360+ points for a unit of basic terminators I swear they're being sold to reduce GW sales.
>>98206013>>98206015>>98206030This needs to be followed up with them collapsing split datasheets back together. Crisis Suits, Land Raiders, Dreadnoughts, etc.
>>98206034I am super curious about their battle-line unit fuckery with this.>imperial guard 5th and 6th platoons are more spendy>use catachan and kreig datasheets instead
>>98205819Howd you do the weathering? Looks solid
>>98206013Wait is that going to be a thing? Is this a way to punish comp fags for taking 3 of the same unit?
I went through my old Tau codex from 4ED just for this bit of art as I try to catch up on where 40k is now. What the fuck is the context here? It always struck me as weird to have them just talking face to face and helmets off like they're somewhat relaxed with each other. Is it first contact and the guy brought a Space Marine for protection? Maybe he's thinking they should see how cool he is before Damocles begins? Is it negotiating a ceasefire? Does the Imperium even do negotiations with xenos in official capacity? Was a ceasefire even ever formally negotiated? Such a weird bit of art, but I feel like an official context would spoil the mystery.
>>98206065It's going to be something they can fiddle with 20 times a year to get people uncomfy and buying more product.Other than actually balancing something, because what's stopping them from bringing 1 to 2 in a 750-1000pt game?
>>98206074>What the fuck is the context here?Fairly sure it's written next to it
>>98205853I like that GW heard the complaint about the rogal dorn having no bottom and gave this one>bottom>detailed interior (even if very simple)>extra dudes for passengers>Tow hook for field batteryFuck GW but this should be highlighted.
Ork bros, outside of war horde what detachments are you planning on stacking? Id love to play dread mob + more dakka but i dont have enough walkers for it
>>98206074>Does the Imperium even do negotiations with xenos in official capacityYes? The water caste wouldn't be able to convince human worlds to join the Tau if Imperial governors simply shot any non-human that knocked on their door. I'm sure the Imperium does business with Eldar Corsairs as well.
>>98206106yeah I actually really like the Centaur on both a design and mold standpoint, wish the Guard had more shit like it and the Tauros.
Hate on this drop but I hate how Russian-inspired the IG is.
>>98206131>Imperial governors are always loyal and haven't been caught dealing with worseI can believe an Imperial talking to the Tau, but an Imperial Fist is another story. There's a short story where the Iron Lords (so not IF to be fair) purge an entire planet for cooperating with Tau who took over.
>>98206080At least in that codex all I saw was that Damocles began after the Tau had been coercing non-loyal worlds pretty much instantly and I didn't see any context about negotiations with any officials but rogue elements of the Imperium. Though reverse image searching turns out it's a 3ed image reused and the context is from there and the mystery is ruined but also kind of cool. I'm trying to go edition by edition starting from where I left (4ed) to get perspective on what's changed in regards to Tau since I long wondered where GW was trying to go with them. It's probably safe to assume the status quo is more or less the same, I assume
>>98206074The Imperium's anti-Xenos policies are dogmatic to a fault, but the reality is that many worlds conduct negotiations and trade deals with Xenos. If the authorities catch wind of it they can get purged for it, but 99% of the time, the Arbites and Inquisition have bigger fish to fry than arresting every noble having talks with the Tau, Squats, or Eldar
>>98206065
>>98206030you retards can't stop making up shit to get mad about can you
>>98206139Best guardsmen are space 'Muricans
>>98206149Generally speaking, GW does nothing significant with Xenos factions from edition to edition. Orks are pretty much identical to how they've always been, Eldar lore hasn't seen any meaningful changes or advancements since 2nd edition (Ynnari got memoryholed like they deserve), and Tau are still a slowly growing proto-Empire gradually finding out just how fucked up the Galaxy really is. At most they'll add some new lore via a new model release, but that's more or less it. Frankly all the 'evolving' storylines GW tries to force nu-40k into are dogshit anyways, so the stasis of Xenos factions is infinitely preferable.
>>98206139>literally the coolest thing.jpg
>>98206146The Imperium had wider dealings with the Tau when the Tyranid invasions of the Eastern Fringe started.
>>98206179>Orks are pretty much identical to how they've always been,I wish, they used to have more SOVL and potential, now they're just psychic* green chavs who make guns out of scrap. I know RT generally doesn't count but that's when a lot of Ork stuff was penned.*this is very tenuous in the official lore and got completely blown out of proportion in fanonIn general the xenos are static because, despite the memes, GW doesn't retcon if they don't have to.
>>98206165I actually like that desu, seeing armies with 3 of the same broken unit is annoying as fuck. I like to run a diverse list but its more for fun and im not really a competitive player, all of the "casual" players at my lgs tend to field competitive lists
>>98206139This. They should be more rapeable. W need to change them into an ethnicity that craves being unconsensually sexually attacked.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKsKLfR0PlYI'm trying to use this guide but when I put on earthshade like the video it just makes it look like I've smeared shit all over my miniAm I doing something wrong or is it because I'm using mephiston red instead of khorne red that blends with the shade more?
>>98206179I think Necrons are literally the only one that has seen any significant changes and that's only because GW literally rewrote them entirely.GSC and Votann are one-note and too new to effect anything and the rest all have pretty much been status quo since 3rd edition.
>>98206190The exception that proves the rule. That's like saying the USSR and the US had a great relationship. They even fought on the same side of a war, after all.>>98206198Washes work better thinned with water or medium, or panel lined. GW is weirdly insistent they look good out of the pot when they don't.
>>98206205The destinyfags won't like this one.
>>98206165>get rid of FOC>every army is now asscancer 3s of all the best units in the army>should we admit we were stupid and wrong and just put FOC back in? No! That could still confuse new players too much, following a literal blueprint for how to build their army! You want them to READ?>instead, we'll introduce arbitrary points-cost stepping on a unit to unit basis. That totally won't confuse the shit out of new playersliterally finding worse and worse solutions to problems that were solved in 2nd edition.
>>98206211No, we're happy you remembered us at all
Kind of tempted to get the beast nigger combat patrol since it will eventually be phased out with the new edition.While I'm not huge on them as a subfaction the boyz and squig riders are not terrible.
>>98206210Glorifying an adversary because "once was" doesn't make current times better.>I played video games with kids from both sides I can't get into contact with anymoreSo yeah, I'm justified to not want russian stuff on my humans.
>>98206212>>get rid of FOC>>every army is now asscancer 3s of all the best units in the armyDude come on tourneyfags taking as many of the best things in their army as they could was a thing even with the FOC. At most all it did was make them drop one or two hundred points on a troop/HQ tax.
>>98206210The US and USSR had in person dealings quite often. The Imperium can be diplomatic when it needs to be. It’s always only a temporary measure
>>98206240Its not bad desu, just need another beast boss in case you want to run 2x10 snaggas instead of a 20 man brick. Personally i think its decent for a current ork player that has no snagga units, its terrible for a new ork player though as da big hunt is hard to play
>>98206248FOCs when done right were a key component of good codex balancing. When done wrong, they were asscancer (and all the little ways you could cheat FOCs like detachments were turbo asscancer). Looking at you, Harlequins 9th edition.
>>98206262I'd probably just dump them in a battlewagon instead of regular boyz because I hate the rigs with a passion.
>>98206269>implying FOCs in any way stop tournament degeneracylol. lmao
>>98206269This. FOC’s are meaningful when your selections are all rather viable. As a guard player it was always a tough choice what to put into my heavy support slot. A lot of options that are good at different things. While FOC’s suck when units are strictly better than others. It’s a balancing of rules within the faction that makes FOC’s great. But you can’t be lazy, and we all know GW writes good rules for whatever models that haven’t broken even on capital costs yet. NPV is everything.
>>98206298can someone explain this to me?i do not understand the connection between votann and destiny. you're talking about like the bungie destiny video game right? what do those two things have to do with each other at all? last i saw that game had no dwarfs in it, although i only got about halfway through the story of the first game and dropped the series cause it was grindy slop
>>98206314Mental illness
Is Artel W actually producing their minis in Russia? Their Facebook says they're based in Israel.
>>98206298Yeah, cut one and the other bleeds. Now wait as I reply to you 10 hours later because you've exposed me and I just can't shake the feeling on an anonymous image board someone correctly struck my nerve.
>>98206314I don’t get it either. It’s in the depths of nerd-dom that I dare not descend to. Be careful, he’ll drag you down into the deep water where he lives.
>>98206210The US and USSR are comparatively a rivalry trying to one-up each other's achievements in tech, sports, etc compared to the all-out genocide attempts of WWII.
>>98206296Like I said, turbo asscancer detachments. The unfortunate truth is that GW doesn't want 'balanced' armies, because it wouldn't even be that hard to make them reasonably balanced.
>>98205787Also got this box recently. Remember to magnetize your dudes.What's your paint scheme?
>>98206325>>98206314Dwarf Fortress, Diggy Diggy Hole and LotR fanboys also like destiny.
>>98206240>buying beast snaggas because of 10e metaretarded >buying beast snaggas because you think they're genuinely coolgay
>>98205819>>98205853What are the colors used for the main body?Very nice, anon.
>>98206314I once discovered Xehanort at a GW store buying a Votann army.
>>98206336Here's your (you).
>>98206340Oops wrong picture. I meant the true original Xehanort.
>>98206333
>>98206322They moved out of Russia back in 2022 and did not disclose their exact new location but they're "shipping from the warehouses in the USA and the EU".
>>98206314It's a weirdo with an autistic hyperfixation. Don't reply.
>>98206351It's reddit dumbass.
>>98206122Taktikal detachment simply because I love putting 10 flash gitz + big mek w/ KFF as mek kaptin in a truck. fill the last slot with a babysitter mek and you have orky dakka at a 3+. if the trukk gets blasted off, the kaptin still got 4+ inv and reroll all hits
>>98206314Given the massive asshurt it causes, it's worth supporting just to watch them seethe. It's like anons know they've been precisely called out so they recoil.
>>98206363What a peach
>>98206368>Given the massive asshurt it causesWhy would anything a rando say here cause asshurt? This is the lowest of the low places to discuss warhammer. You don't even admit you go here to your irl friends.
So almost all of the 10th edition content like campaign books, crusade rules etc. is still usable in 11th? There seem to be next to no difference between these two except for scenery rules and some minor rules tweaks. It really feels like we got 10.5 edition instead.
>>98206381I see it affecting you. You must be new enough that you haven't seen thread drama yet affected enough to show the butthurt he mentioned.
He recoiled because he was called out.
>>98206384and that's a good thing.
>>98206381NTA, but I do just because I don’t give a shit and neither do they, probably because we’re actually friends without pretense. But other than that, yes, I agree. The greasiest of slovenly autists are also here.
This is (You) Destinyfag
>>98206333I love Dwarf Fortress and have probably 4 digits in playtime clockedI also enjoyed Yogscast and saw the diggy diggy hole meme unfold in real timeYes I like LotR but honestly only read the books all the way through one timeI also did a lot of blast furnace and lava flow mine when I played Runescape And yeah, I own Votann modelsI love dwarvesEven at its peak, Destiny looked like nothing but psudeo-mmo trash for wageslave consolefags. Absolutely zero interest. The association you have created in your head is simply a product of mental illness and an insult to dwarf enjoyers.
>>98206384I thought they were coming out with indices for all factions on the 20th
>>98206401He has been struck and is reacting with pain. The attack has landed cleanly.
I would like Votann more if they had more Destiny.
>>98206363That doesn't answer the question
>>98206330Custom Noble House. Was going to do Freeblades, but the appeal of a full Lance in house colors was too appealing to me. How about you, Anon? Picked or created a house or fluff for your Knights?
>>98206406For me, I would like them more if they were more Fallout.
>>98206406Are you any of the characters in this Pic?
>>98206402Judging by Armageddon profiles, the core of the game stays pretty much the same. Sure, some values will be changed but 11th edition appears to be just a very big errata.
>>98206417If you want post-apocalyptic Leagues, look no further than the URSR where>they don't have enough food and water to feed everyone>they subsist in scattered Kindreds throughout the harshest, most desperately brutal worlds and mines of the Galactic Core, each Hold surrounded by vast swathes of hell on the surface and in the void>every day millions of Kin die to hold the line against the various threats of this nigh-lawless region, from Tyranids to Orks to Chaos and even Black Templar raids>war, war never changes
>>98205532I really want to paint another assassin now
>>98206385>I see it affecting you.Why would it? Even if I played and loved Votann, why would it? All thread drama is always shitposting. You seriously don't believe anyone actually cares? Ngmi.>>98206394>probably because we’re actually friends without pretenseBro...
>>98206421>yo dog, we heard you liked having errata supplements longer than the actual rules in the core rulebook, so we made a whole new edition that's just all the errata from 10th crammed into a single rulebook
Discuss power armor + long guns
I have finally settled on a Chapter for my old Marines army. It will be White Scars after all. I'm starting with 12 bikes, 2 attack bikes and a full Tactical Squad since not running one feels wrong. Wish me luck, I'm starting to assemble the first batch tomorrow.
>>98206445It's okay anon. I'll spend less time insulting Destiny. That way you won't be as sad. Destiny bad
>>98206454Too destiny for my liking
>>98206470I just discovered just now that Destiny has more power armor than I expected.
>>98206339It's Thunderhawk Blue over The Fang
>>98206480To do canon fallout, you need the anti power armor weapons used by invisible stealth people
>>98206485Do they need to be Chinese?
>>98206488No, they can be from Big MT.
>>98206488No they only need big boobs
>>98206415Same, going for a custom noble house. I'll be actually doing a play on my family crest since we used to be some shitty low tier nobles and our crest along with the colors was pretty cool so it should fit nicely.
Will they drop the new points tomorrow?
Votann is the worst faction of any GW product in history, and it's not even close.
>>98206483Looks neat, thanks anon.
>>98206485Wouldn't that be the Tau style? Invisible suits + railguns?
>>98206497Send your crest to a 3d printer/artist to make you something you can stamp with.
>>98206503Saturday
>>98206470Bro it's goneLet the dead rest
>>98206504You misspelled Imperial Knights
The DestinyVotannfag tries distancing himself as much as he can, but his reaction every time votann/destiny are insulted still exposes him.
>>98206515Shit, that's a great idea. Thanks!
>>98206520He came here because he wanted to escape his dying game. Smart thing Bungie did convincing GW to add Votann to 40k to provide a haven for their players.
>>98206519You take that back.
>>98206523be sure to ask for multiples of the same part.
>>98206504bro, your Sisters of Silence? Remember them? The utterly redundant Abaddon-topknot wearing retards who don't speak because reasons? Who got ditched and replaced with female Custards?
>>98206264But could a veteran guardsmen kill team survive a King's Man?
>>98206497Hell yeah! That is really cool, Anon. Plan on posting pictures of them on here once completed?
>>98205792cuuuuuute :]
>>98206519Unironically only bad players have problems with Imperial Knights. It's the ultimate test. If someone is cryinbg about Knights, they're shit.
>>98206519Imperial Knights having the one positive attribute of also existing in Adaptus Titanicus / Legions Imperialis, where they belong.
>>98206546There's no skill involved. It's just a DPS check.
>>98206546Isn't it basically just a skew army? Like, half of your stuff is kind of useless to take but if you optimize against them they aren't that much of a challenge?
>>98206554And if you can't pass the check you are a.... ?Exactly.
went to swap meet and got these two last chancers for $1 each. pretty cool though sadly it was only these two guys, so no indian or commissar.
>>98206546Not everyone has a contingency plan that includes 20 lascannons or a fuckton of bodies to objective farmIt's a stupid cheesy army that demands you play in unfun ways
>>98206573I built my new armies around fighting the random knight player.>nid spam, but can hurt their shit on 5+ wound rollsor>tzeentch bullet spam CSM, critical hits on 5+ if they pass LD check
I read Eisenhorn and Ravenor years ago, but I don't remember much of the plot. Should I give them a re-read before checking out the Bequin series?
>>98206587Yes. Bequin has a lot of plot threads from both trilogies woven into it.
Do we have any leaks or news at all about what is in the 189-page Combat Patrol book they're selling for the new edition? They have not previewed the new game mode at all or even mentioned redesigning it in any way, and everyone was sure they were going to push it as 40K spearhead this time. It's weird how silent they have been about this.
>>98206598For a second, I saw the bottom right Ork as having helicopter blades on his spike, then I realized it wasn't attached.
>>98206149>>98206179>>98206074It's annoying how you guys ignore what's in the codex and make up fanfiction.The Imperial Fist and the Imperial official were on a Tau world as diplomats to negotiate the status of the Hive World of Nimbosa. The Imperialsw weren't there in good faith. It was a delaying tactic by the Imperials while their forces were hiding to the planet.The Tau removing the helmet was an Ethereal in disguise. He told them that the Tau are aware that it's a delaying tactic and that the Tau are already prepared to rebuff the Imperial unwarranted aggression.
>>98206611Did you mean to reply to >>98206179 ? I don't think my post is related to yours
>>98206598Considering >>98205420 mentions a Combat Patrol specific Terrain set it might be getting some sort of tweak, or it could just be a naming thing like how they took the "Ultimate Starter Set" and renamed it to the "Combat Patrol Starter Set" in 10th
>>98206598thank god they put the greatest space marine chapter on that book, I was worried I'd have to stare at that dogshit bloodangels trash.
>>98206570Hell yeah, I hope to see them done up
Anyone do the Helldivers Tau yet?
>>98206621>butcher the blood angels refresh>make the ultramarine refresh kino>make blood angels the face of the edition>wonder why people want ultramarines
>>98205127and just like that the game is forcing people to play entirely in the "list building" stage
>>98206598>Do we have any leaks or news at all about what is in the 189-page Combat Patrol book they're selling for the new edition?Yes, Youtube is full of reviews. It's literally a "start here" hobby booklet with no rules, no profiles, no missions. Combat Patrol as a separate game format with tailored profiles is dead. Perhaps we will see it as a 500pts format but don't hold your breath for Spearhead in space.
>>98205381Yes, and so that anything can touch the little bumps and gain LOS through it.
>>98206517wtf why saturday
>>98206648Ultramad
>>98206653>It's literally a "start here" hobby booklet with no rules, no profiles, no missions.What in the actual fuck? Who is this for? Brand new collectors can find all that shit online for free.
>>98206617I used the shotgun approach in replying
>>98205430Its actually more MTG dropouts but the result is the same - a soulless boring game that keeps getting worse and moves in a direction that is the opposite of what the community wants.
>>98206653That’s a shame, really. Spearhead in spess for a 90 min or less game sounds great.
>>98206444Thank mr skeltal
>>98205459Yes and its been hilarious watching them gaslight the community about armies that are unfun and dead to play against while they glaze them in video but then only take the most meta-stomp bullshit army to events. Im in the art of war discord just to watch Nick, John and Jack lie to their community and watch them squirm when you politely ask why they didnt run another army they said on video a day ago was actually "really good".
>>98206669Dunno, GW knows that people will buy anything so they don't even have to pretend they are trying at this point. Luckily 11E is just 10E but with FAQ and errata baked in so you can just use all the 10E Combat Patrol rules.
>>98206690so its.... 10.5
>>98205459All I see are videos going on about how this army/strat/detachment is totally broken and OP and competitive and it's handing the whole edition to X army; I'm just really tired of it.
>>98206364Can also put that big mek with a squad of tankbustas to get the reroll to hits unless they did an errata for it. The mega armour version is a great choice as you can bring a model back each turn
>>98206690i mean, the former head of product development did say on an interview with peachy that their largest consumer audience by far were 30+ yo moms who know fuckall about the game itself buying gifts for their teens. when you understand this, a lot of GWs scammy shelf liners start to make a lot more sense
>>98205685Ive done them all just so I could make videos summarizing my experience with them and record it and videos are being made on every major "comp" type person.
>lorefags
>>98205723With cover, if 1 model in a unit is not "in cover" then there is no cover for the unit (so no -1 to hit). Paired with the fact that you can toe- any objective to see through it, it makes staging impossible in no mans land. this makes every melee army and shooting army entirely predictable so running max hullspam is simply the best.
>>98206470The most destiny army would involve the most guaranteed hits and least rolling.
How many of you have ordered one bros? I’m feeling tempted to get it from a discount seller.
>>98206738So it would be all the basic intercessors with the +1 to wound vanguard or whatever it is. Hits on 2+, +1 to wound and -1AP to all guns, 2 wounds for the guys that shoot half the shots the other guys do.
>>98206743Grabbing a couple boxes.
>>98206743I can't wait to pick mine up from the FLGS.
Is the appeal of Raptors just that you want your marines to look as boring as possible?
The Destiny/KH/EldenRing/Votann guy has become the most annoying and consistently off-topic ritual poster.
>>98206743I originally ordered it to sell off the marine half and keep the orks, but I realized I’ve always wanted to try painting marines malevolent, so I might as well just use this box to do it.
>>98206743Just the one. I already don't need more Marines but I might consider getting more of the Ork stuff on the cheap (Thinking of getting a second Dakkarig since I'm going Dread Mob/More Dakka for detachment choices) but I'm gonna wait some time to see what their Codex release wave brings besides the new Bikes
>>98206762We already had this discussion.
>>98206766I want to pick up some extra intercessors and throw on some beakie helmets just to have a squad of MM.
The Destiny/KH/EldenRing/Votann/Halo/Tomboy/Gundam guy has become my most favorite singular target for everything I want to blame and I choose to assume there is only one person inside my walls instead of many. I have also recently learned how to write in capital letters.
>>98206770I didn't.
>>98206743Got one to split with my friend who is planning on starting a space wolves army. Ive seen a few ork players getting several ork halves and honestly i dont see the appeal; mutiple dakkarigs, weirdboyz and wartrakks? Sounds silly
>>98206768Yeah but ur gay so no one cares about what you have to say
>DestinyIs destiny>KHIs about destiny>Elden RingHas plot points about fate thus destiny>VotannDestiny of course>HaloCreated by destiny people>TomboyI'm assuming destiny has at least 1 tomboyish female character>GundamThe destiny gundam exists.I'm surprised star wars isn't brought up given actual prophecies and predestinated events happen. But I now see they're all linked.
>>98206074They Imperium was just sending ambassadors to stall with negotiations until reinforcements could arrive. The water caste was trying to flex with public sport war manouvers showing advanced tactics and weapons against copied human squadrons. The marine is just there to tell the tau he's a worthless xeno worm and he'll shit down his alien neck.
>>98206789>tfw Destiny
>>98206789No one fuckin cares stop with this pure cringe
>>98206789>>KH>Is about destinyAlso Sora's concept art has him use a chainsword & 40k completely invented, patented, and has full ownership of chainsaw swords without anyone else before them able to contest it. This foreshadows Disney acquiring GW just like they acquired LucasArts with Xemnas being a Sith.
>>98206743i got one but im only keeping the orks. gonna sell off or trade the marines and all the paper, i dont play often enough to need rules
>>98206789Please continue this is interesting
>>98206812>This foreshadows Disney acquiring GW just like they acquired LucasArts
>>98206789this is getting to the point where its actually completely unrelated to this generals topics at all
>>98206789You forgot hundreds of other franchises that the schizo throws together assuming it's one anon.
I want anons in my walls too.
>>98206834Go away. They're inside my walls downloading destiny and gundam onto MY PC. Not yours.
>>98206840Please share?
I notice the schizo didn't mention Fallout.
>>98206847No
What should I do while we're waiting for points costs? I want to build lists. All my painting is done.Think I'll play the new rogue trader videogame dlc.
>>98206122Kult of Speed and the Battlewagon one probably. Even if it gives me dogshit dispositions
>>98206854That's because it's not connected to any of those franchises which are secretly all the exact same franchise. Fallout is it's own tabletop game secretly canon to Cyberpunk because the nuclear war started in 2076 which is a year before Night City gets nuked.
>>98206869But night city was nuked many times including during the raid by morgan blackhand.
>>98206876That's why it's so intact compared to the rest of the States.
>>98206812Please tell me Disney isn't acquiring Games Workshop.
>>98206888>888you cursed it
>>98206888Disney already bought Doc Who and Marvel, they're running out of legacy English franchises to devour. You bet your ass GW is on that list>imagine the crossovers with Star Wars
>>98206905If disney takes over, they'll make it american.
>>98206172>The only offical black men in the Galaxy are Catachans
>>98206905All the more reason GW should be doubling down on the less family-friendly aspects of the game. More titties, more slaves, more violence. Make it an IP the mouse wouldn't dare touch and filter normies at the same time.
>>98206933Are the women sexy?
>>98206933are you sure?
>>98206934But titties, slaves, and violence are very child friendly
>>98206946Yes, not counting the post-COVID retard take about how 40k is actually modern day London/California
>>98206935For Catachans.
When is Trazyn getting a glowup?
>>98206888ok?Disney isn't acquiring Games Workshopthere, you feel better now, anon?
>>98206888Star wars tie-ins are where franchises go to die
>>98206969But that franchise died before then.
>>9820696940k & Kingdom Hearts are doomed then.
>>98206977It was saved by the For Honor collab. Just like how For Honor survived its Star Wars collab through collabing with Dead by Daylight.
>>98206960Trazyn popping up in random moments in the vanilla game outside of his DLC was kinda retarded, he kills the tone of certain tense moments by just teleporting in and talking shit, like on Quetza.
>>98206789>I'm surprised star wars isn't brought upIt is now >>98206969This rabbit hole is so deep
Warhammer 40k
So a good combat patrol/starter box is one that has units people actually want, doesn't have very many or any units people don't want to use, and will generally give you a functioning army if you simply buy like 2 of them and a couple other units of your choice.Looking through them, I feel like most guard players don't want that many horses, sob players don't want that many flagellants, and any others I'm missing?The old drukhari one is incredible since you can literally buy like 3 or 4 of them and use everything.
>>98206548I like both though.
Is the tyranid combat patrol any good besides the fact that it only gives you ~300 points worth of models
>>98207041hello fellow Sacred Stones tranny, I wish you a good day
>>98207043I only started playing sacred stones for the first time yesterday while taking a break from Berwick saga
>>98207052I played it in the gold days on a GBA, but the best experience is on an SP with the backlit screen and BEAUTIFUL vibrant color. You can get replica SPs that are superior to the original for pretty cheap nowadays as well. I recommend it. And you can slap pirated roms onto any GBA cartridge.
>>98207065I'll keep that in mind
I have zephyrim, seraphim, Celestine, and 1 exorcist so I might want to lean into the detachment that buffs those and makes those work together, but then I also have 4 immolators so I might want to just stick with Bringers like I've always done in the past, but then they also made Champions of Faith only 2DP and that's my second favorite detachment since it buffs 3 of my favorite units. So I'm excited and anxious to start listbuilding and testing with new points costs. But they're making us wait.I'm also still not sure what "disposition" I like. Bringers locks you into Purge the Foe, while Champions of Faith+Chorus lets me choose between Disruption and Recon and I don't know if I like one of those more. I feel like I might want to choose a Disposition first, and then choose a detachment second according to which ones give that Disposition. I haven't considered that but it makes sense.I'm excited!
>>98207041>gif>no animationI saw the 73 KB yet I was still disappointed
>>98207076purge is technically the best from a meta/comp standpoint, but note that you're only "locked" to a disposition in tournament play. for casual games you can mix any detachment with any disposition.
Angelsteel
I like battlefleet Gothic
Disposition Ranking>1. Purge the Foe>2. Take and Hold>3. Reconnaissance>4. Priority Assets>5. Disruption
>Bolter>Melta>FlamerSo how to expand Sister's weapons when limited to these 3?
>>98206799Shinn will never be the D.
>>98207134They get combi plasma in their kit. They get plasma pistols. Some of their male units get plasma guns.
Not for practical use but what's the biggest model you could mount on top a abominant knight chassis without looking disproportional? Kinda have an idea for mini diorama of a houndmaster character that rides a chained knight
>>98207134
>>98207134What stands to belief if they ever get a hold of Volkalite weaponry, that would be the next logical step of their holy weapons unity. It's heat based, and very archaic.They're basically legionaries of the modern 40k setting.
>>98207134Those are just the holiest and most symbolic three. They're not limited from using plasma and the average list has tons of plasma pistols. They also happily use exorcist missiles and castigator battle cannons. Novitiates use regular stubbers and autoguns, and let's not forget that all repentia and officers and zephrym have power swords and eviscerators and chainswords. Oh, and one my personal favorites, the stake crossbow.
>>98206774But they are the same person. Votann make clones therefore pic is an accurate depiction of the destinyfag and his identical copies. Therefore the other anon is not a schizophrenic. He's just ahead of the curve.
>>98206384when i read that, i can here naga the serpents laugh, and now thats cannon eldar for me.
What is the detail on bit 15 supposed to be?
>>98207193use your brain for this one
>>98207193part of the machinery of the power pack thats mutated?
>>98205532Finally cracking down on this guy since I got him back in like November. He can finally stand tall.
Necrons are busted and I will have no repect for you if you play any Ctans you meta chasing slut.
How do you guys deal with dice tilt? The following is not hyperbole:17 out of 20 game turns (so 4 total games) my opponents have spiked most dice rolls. I am talking 12 wounds and nine are 6s for dev wounds, roll a 6 or die and rolling four 6s, saving 10 wounds on a 5+ on repeat, sustained 2 + lethal rolling TWENTY 6s out of sixty shots while only missing a few naturally, level of spike. Meanwhile I also spiked down 15 out of 20 game turns, and spiked up 2 out of 20. I am talking 12 wounds, 4++, then fail them all and then pass one 5+++. The two spike ups were what won me the one game because my wraith 5+++ was hot.I know "you cant lose on dice" is flung around but one game was a win by 2 points(wraith over-performing), another was a loss by 4, and two were blowouts because my opponents had difficulty NOT wounding anything while I would need a 3+ across 10 dice and roll two. I changed out my dice every game too. The only reason I won one and came close was another was because I was playing my A game taking advantage of terrain, LoS blocking, and greatly over committing on destroying units while positioning for secondaries well. The blowouts were close turns one and two despite heavy loses because I was playing for VP better, but I was hemorrhaging units too quickly. Example 10 incidental bolter level shots doing 8 wounds to a Ctan shard and then 10+ from a landfort because I cant roll a 4++/5+++ style losses. I am not over exposing or presenting one target to feed, but I lose tough units to one or two units.One crazy game is fine, four in a row of losing units a turn early because I can't roll a more than a few 3+ is tilting me. I just want a normal game where a single 6 is dramatic, but a landfort saving on seas of 5/6 where any one fail would have finished it off and then it wiping multiple units a turn is driving me nuts. Thank you for attending my rant.
>>98207220You say "it is what it is" and move on.
>>98207220who tf says "you cant lose on dice". You absolutely lose on dice. Thats the whole point of the game, we have randomness to make it interesting and asymmetrical. The chaos of random outcomes is more fun than determined outcomes. There ARE war and skirmish games that have no RNG but people prefer the random dice rolls. THE DICE TELL A STORY.
>>98207214i've got no problem with someone fielding A c'tan. its when they start running more than 1 that it get beardy, and 3+ is just outright gross
best black library/novel for a new eldar player? is there one with some cool lore on eldar worlds?im looking for something where the whole book doesnt take place on some imperial world, i'dd like one that focuses on eldar "day in the life of" on a craftworld, even if its not the whole books focus
>>98207220Some people take random too personally.If an event is possible then it might happen.If probabilities favour you it doesn't mean you won't fail. If probabilities are against opp it doesn't mean he can't just oops all 6s. If you make a correct play and got punished by dice it's still a correct play.3+ or 4+ without rerolls (or 9+ reroll charge fron deep strike) are bad chances, if you depend on those you're doing something wrong if it's not the last ditch play.I will never play a monomelee army because failing several charges in a turn will always put you in gigatilt.
>>98205532final repost of big blue
>>98206774The destiny nonense is forced garbage being done by almost certainly one person and with his death it will be forgotten about instantly as it means nothing to anybody
>>98207245The point is that some people say you cant lose to dice; meaning you lost at the tactics level and dice didnt over perform and save you. Meaning that if you lost, it was 100% skill issue that you didn't set up better scenarios rendering bad dice rolls irrelevant.>>98207261OK but I tam talking extreme odds, like 4.59394e-10 odds happening consistently. I understand average dice isn't most dice but 9/12 dice being 6s and that being the standard average of rolls is crazy. if 10d6 average is 35, we're talking that average being 50+ instead consistently. The spieks should be relatively equal on either side of the average, but 17 turns of it being on the higher extreme ends really soured my grapes.
>>98206756Why is she crying if she got the latest and greatest edition of 40k? I wasn't crying when I got my box.
>>98205532Finished off some flawless blades
>>98206774You struck a nerve on the destinyfag who had to reply over 2 hours later
>>98207306>The point is that some people say you cant lose to dicethose people are retards. you should call them retarded and then piss all over their captain crunch. sounds like they are probably also mtg retards too
>>98207340
>>98207331You're not wrong. Thank you for having a human take. I feel like every time I try to improve, luck aside, I just get hit with popular phrases from comp player channels.
>>98207347ah, they are comp players. makes sense. comptards have this weird complex about making out the game to be extremely skill intensive because they like it. It's like an "appeal to skill" fallacy type thing. There is no question skill plays a major role, but if you haven't won or lost a game just because one of you got BTFO by dice you haven't played very many games of warhammer. It kind of reminds me of that type of person who NEVER thinks anyone is cheating in counterstrike even if they get banned and the system tells you they cheated and they rolled the whole lobby shooting people through walls.
>>98207340This is not the greatest squat in the world, noThis is just a tributeCouldn't remember the greatest squat in the world, noNo, this is a tribute, oh
>>98206934How did you get this dox of me and my gf?
>>98207305positively evil looking motherfucker. good job.
>>98206364Who's gonna tell him
Why are people so opposed to female Custodes? They're not space marines.
>>98207404See >>98206770
>>98207282>friend in highschool had an enormous bong of hand blown blue glass he affectionately referred to as “big blue” and only smoked weed from his “trophy nug” collection which were all cannabis cup winners from that bong to “savor the flavor”.I don’t smoke, but when anyone refers to something as old blue or big blue, my brain thinks of a very jolly son of overly sever parents taking a huge draw from that bong.
>>98207404custos shouldn't be in the game
>>98207193Wrinkly ballsack
>>98207419Me think of F Zero
The topic of cheating.Have you seen someone cheat? Cheated yourself? Cheating at major events? What are common cheats to watch out for? I know most people don't cheat since it's a game and we're here to have fun, but some people do it.
>>982074041. its the gaslighting that came with "there has always been female custodes"2. they made them look like men with wigs3. there was no need, really
>>98207404Because those with any sense of the natural world knows the physical difference between men and women to be so great as to be puzzled by such a decision. >bodyguards and some of the greatest warriors in the imperium>warriorsWhy take a base template that is wholly unsuited for physical expression and violence relative to the male template and make an unbelievably expensive, arduous, and detailed process to enhance the aforementioned expression even more difficult for a worse product?>guardMen and women>admechMen and women>inquisitionMen and women>rogue tradersMen and women>Imperial navyMen and women>Assassinsmen and women>Super soldiers (marines)Men>Super duper soldiers (custodes)Men>Sisters of battleWomen>Sisters of SilenceWomenSeems like a good split, why ruin it for a political statement? Oh yeah, propaganda isn’t meant to convince you of a false narrative, it’s meant to present a false narrative that you know ain’t true and humiliate you into accepting it lest you become a social pariah.
>>98207404Because Custodes suck.
>>98207404There has yet to be confirmation that during the custodes naked phase,the females were also naked. This is upsetting and unless we get naked female custodes, we are unhappy.
>>98207469Why would you want to see this naked
>>98207480Because
>>98207480>pussy the size of an deflated american football with a clit the size of your middle finger.Yeah, no, not interested.
>>98207480I want to see her crush an orks head like a grape with one hand then throw the mangled corpse into 3 other orks jackie chan style (naked)
>>98207498>I want her to pull an ork boss arm through her thong and then break said arm with her glutes while wearing a bikini wirh heelsGet a hold of yourself!
Had a dream I was on a podcast show where they were reviewing the little amateur cinematic trailer I had made for my dudes. And the only feedback the dude kept giving was "where are all the women and blacks"But man I wish you guys could see that trailer. It was badass and gave me so many ideas that ive instantly forgotten now ive woken up.
>>98205095Am I reading this right? If I run a blob of 20 Death Korp of Krieg models, I can equip two vox casters. Does this mean that each time I hit that blob with a stratagem, I roll 2 d6 (one for each vox caster) and potentially gain up to 2 command points per stratagem?
>>98207536I had a dream where I was the CEO of mitsubishi motors and I made the company stop selling shitbox cars to people with shit credit and instead reintroduced the eclipse as a hot hatch to compete with Golf Rs and Corolla GRs, the Lancer Evo, the GTO(3000gt) renamed the Type Zero as a bad ass sportscar, and the Montero as a hardcore offroad SUV.
>>98207548In 10th the max CP you could gain from the ability of a given unit was 1 unless specially stated otherwise. So I'm pretty sure what would happen is you'd roll 2 D6 and only gain a max of 1 CP per round from the Vox Casters.
>>98207404i think they're neat and a cool addition to the setting, and as possibly the only person in this thread who has painted them, i have more auctoritas on the matter than most
>>98207555Sounds sick
how do you guys get the models posed on one leg to stay put while the glue driesi am going to blow my brains out
>>98207404These weird lanklet models still look like something from another franchise.
>>98207404I prefer Lawbringer over Nobushi. I like the Destiny 2 skin. It looks nice
>>98207573Spray an accelerator on it
>>98207573I use my hands to hold it in place, it's not the most efficient way so I also want advice.
>>98207569They add literally nothing to the setting
>>98207572Yeah man. I had advertising make a superbowl spot for the new lancer that I showed to the board. It started off with a mounted knight pulling down his visor, a mounted samurai tying his demon mask on, a rally driver pulling down his helnet visor, and a commuter putting on his sun glasses, and it flashes between all the pike men, archers, off road hazards, and road traffic they have to avoid on their mission. The ad ends with the knight and the samurai in slow motion about to run a poor soldier through (not shown), the ralt driver mid air through a stage finish, and the commuter drifting into a parking spot. Then the ad goes black and it says “lancer”. The board hated it and my tenure as CEO was short.
>>98207573I use gel super glue and it gets "good enough" pretty quick.If that's not enough you might need to pin it.
>>98207569> i bought dogshit so trust me when i say it doesn't stink
>>98207573I use putty to keep the model in place. Once the glue dries I pull the putty off, ball it up and either use it on another model or put it back in the tub.
>>98207610>nomodels thinks xir opinion mattersLOL
>>98207569>armor painted like a bout of dysentrieWhy nurgle though?
>>98205532done with the basecoat of my ratlings, soon I can do the camo and freehand some spiders. also going to be working on a blood axe nob with MW2 style spetznaz camo after.>>98207312so sexy… I really need to paint some of my emperor’s children.
Do cadian heads fit on kasrkin? Or are kasrkin too big?
>>98205532>>98207625
>>98207404Custodes shouldn't be an army. A handful of units attached to an Imperial Agents thing at best but now they're just another Space Marine +1 army when we already have anwyere from Grey Knights to Primaris to debatably forms of CSM as an upgraded Marine.
Mordrak may be the only special character I actually have an interest in building a force around.Representing his ghostly companions as Paladins makes it a heck of a lot easier to differentiate them and base terminators.
>>98205532Finished my wazdakka, finally. Probably won't start another painting project this week since I'll be picking up my Armageddon box this Saturday.
>>98207620its true though. owning models period does show you actually participate in the hobby, and aren’t a subhuman secondary, but if you spend money on pic related that doesn’t necessarily mean you have any authority to say if the model is good or bad.
>>98207651Just in time for him to get nerfed to just a Deffkilla Wartike with one special rule in the 11th edition Ork codex.
>>98207651>finished my wazdakkaerm, your beakie helm on the pole?
>>98207642>>98205532Did some Gray Knights today to get back on the hobby wagon after a week of spreadsheet hell.realized I probably could have done some better lighting.
>>98207658It's a good thing I don't like running named characters, then. I was always going to tack him onto a defkilla base and run him has a proxy.>>98207660Uh, it's a black templars helmet or something? Idk it's black with some grey dry brushed over it I don't like painting marine stuff
>>98207448>the physical difference between men and womenWhich is a moot point because Custodes are genecrafted to such an insane degree that their base biology is basically an afterthought. Of all the arguments against femstodes, you pick the most retarded take one.
>>98207673Then why are they still sexually dimorphic
>>98207651looks amazing, definitely looks better without the tactical rock. did you end up using it or plan to use for anything?
>>98207676Nah, the back wheel was attached to the rock so I had to destroy the top of it to get it removed.
>>98207675Besides the face, are they?
>>98207573Glue a small bit of circular gundam sprue to the foot with plastic cement then drill a hole in the base.
I understand that Chaos people tend not to be geniusesHoweverWhy would anyone willingly ally with Kharn the Betrayer?
>>98207686 Yes.
>>98207726The same reason The Joker has tons of minions.
>>98207726Because he's cool
>>98207686Yea they got boob
>>98207673Who’s arguing. Telling you why female stodes jump the shark for most people.
>>98206743I care not for orks or buzz lightyears
>>98207747this isn't the game for you
>>98206139>>98206180Just paint them as cossacks then
>>98207726he's got that drip
>>98206139Cadians are just starship troopers. You're a retard and probably from /k/
>>98207747>don’t like orksshit taste
>>98206993I didnt buy it just for this reason. The GSV versus Death Cult DLC already added TONS to the game and I did a second playthrough (im autistic and couldnt stop myself from doing EVERYTHING again, every single system and encounter) that was 200+ hours and I just dont see the appeal of replaying a game that is 99% and likely worse integrated than the 1st DLC.
>>98207730>>98207745>broad fucking shoulders>hips not noticeably wider than a man'sDoesn't look like she has less muscle mass than a male or the typical body structure of a female. The models are obviously just head swaps, so no difference there.
>>98207789>>hips not noticeably wider than a man'sBut anon, that's normal. Many men have very rapeable wide hips.
>>98207803>the rape in question
This is the first model of my 2k points of craftworld eldarI am officially graduating from being a marinesissy All glory to Khaine
>>98206139>Krieg are franco-prussian WWI mishmash pulled into the setting.>Steel legion basically gulf war mechanized infantry>Catachan are Vietnam war-predator mishmash pulled into the setting>Tallarn are North African WWII brits>Valhalla sre Winter War soviets (first russian so far)>Cadians are either Aliens-style colonial marines or Verhoven-style Starship Troopers>Elysians are their own thing>Vostroyan are Imperial Russian style>Atillan rough riders are Asiatic steppe inspiredThey’re not very russian inspired actually.
>>98204860>some techpriest dudewhackHermiatus is paradoxically the quintesential tech priest, I'm surprised there are no basic "dude in red robes with mechadendrites" minis. All techpriests either have spider legs, or heavier armor with a big axe or something. The closest other than hermiatus is the technoarcheologist.
>>98207831I like the classic colored base. Fire dragons fuck, so good job anon.
>>98207844Valhalans also have a tiny dash of Brits added. The Cain audiobooks gave them a northern/cockney accent.
>>98207874I'm guessing that's more to do with the majority of voice actors in Britain not being able to pull off a convincing Russian accent, so they just picked typical "working class" British voices.
>>98207844I think he means how the Guard is basically Soviet Red Army inspired with mass waves of infantry with no regard to their lives and a commissariat injecting itself to instill discipline by summary executions.
>>98204860necromunda really is the best thing modern GW does huh
>>98207893Brits had a commissariat too. Many militaries st the turn of the 19th-20th century had them.
>>98207907But even the Brits abandoned human wave tactics after WWI. The Ruskies loved them in WW2. Still do.
>>98207914Every military ever describes the enemy as attacking in "human waves"
>>98207914I mean, in North Africa you still have battles that are basically just groups of infantry running across wide open spaces while supported by tanks. Maybe not "we advance as though the mine field isn't there" type human waves, but still pretty guard-coded.
>>98206702I don't believe in this one. I have a hard time seeing a random WASP mother spending $60 on 5 toy soldiers for her teenage son.
>>98207914A lot of that was propaganda. They did highly risky and death-heavy operations but it wasn't mindless. Lots of it came from their defeated enemies who didn't understand them nor had an excuse for why they were losing.
>>98207750You don't get to decide that lil brobro
>>98207134Why don't we start with making bolters/storm bolters/heavy bolters and flamers/heavy flamers good first.
>>98208033heavy bolters are good
>>98208004Yes it is, tourist
>>98207844>Steel legion basically gulf war mechanized infantrylol. Gulf war, famous for gasmasks and longcoats.
>>98207847>I'm surprised there are no basic "dude in red robes with mechadendrites" minis.Admech's 40k army is one of those things where it's like there's somebody sitting there figuring out how to avoid making it good.
>>98208100And at the same time the guy is actively holding back their friend who actually has some good ideas from coming in and helping by adding the HH models to the range.
What name would you give a MM dreadnought?
GRAAAAAAHGH!!!
