Why did you remove the swastikas and fuck up the first post?
>>98281927Where does my territory start and end though? And what about objectives and missions and universal tokens?
Let Chaos Idols take this thread!
>>98282010Because this is a site for adults
>>98282034Being an adult entails fucking up the first post?
>>98282010>>98282037I’m not OP, but the swastikas were only meant as a gag for ork stormboyz, and then carried into next thread because the other OP was too lazy to remove them, so now they’re back to normal.>why is the first post fucked up? the collage parts are relatively new, and some threads go without thread questions, so its not really a fuck up. I personally decided to make >>98282001 as an addition to the OP.
>>98282020
>>98282010swastikas are incredibly cringed
>>98282043>its not really a fuck up.It's a total fuck up.>>98282049Then remove them and make the first post properly. If you're not that competent then just copy and paste and leave them in.

I think Armageddon STINKS and they should think of some new worlds to have conflicts on.
>>98282069Just come up with your own system bro it's not that hard bro
>>98282043I avoided the threads you started with swazstikas.
>>98282092in fact, I found new outlets because I avoided /40kg/, see ya nerds
>>98282098see you tomorrow
Didn't do as much on these as I hoped to get done today.Are you guys working on anything or have you just finished something?
I like orks :D
>>98282034>>98282092Anon. The symbols were put there as a joke. Playing on the old stormboyz and for me it was kriegers and just being lazy and cheeky.Do you enjoy roleplaying as ye old offended tumblr girl or is this really the way you are?
>>98282122Also it's probably only interesting to me but when I was looking at the PE that came with the 8th edition box I noticed it's different from the ones that are in the standalone kit in a few small ways.
>>98282122Just finished these guys this morning. They're my collage entry for this month so I'm keeping an eye out for collagebro's posts so I can get them included.
>>98282122I got half my recon squad painted
"Female Warrior Jayne, based on the Rogue Trader original.My Sister is Bashed!For those who don’t know, the original Female Warrior models – Jayne and Gabs – were released as part of the RT06 Adventurers range in 1988. While they look like female Space Marines, their slotta tab says “SISTER”, and their rebreathers and shoulder pad ram’s skull symbols match Stephen Tappin’s artwork of “Sister Sin” on page 268-9 of the RT rulebook, next to which is the first mention of the Adepta Sororitas in 40k, “an order of devotional warrior women.” It’s clear that these were test battle-sisters miniatures, and from interviews it’s also clear they didn’t sell well (probably due to the rather… ahem… unflattering sculpting on the faces) and it wasn’t until 1997 that the Sisters of Battle finally got a redesign, Codex and full range for 2nd Ed.I’ve wanted to make an updated version of them for a long time, but it took a long time to settle on the right mix of bits. Finally I realised that Emelda Braskov from WHQ Cursed City was a perfect base, as she has the same pose as Jayne and the gloved hands of Gabs. I spliced in various parts of MkVI armour, like the power pack, belt buckle and leg greaves, with the feet replaced with Emelda’s original ones and the back cut down into high heels(!) to match the original. The rebreather was fiddly but essential, and the ram’s head shoulder pad is a slightly modified Exorcists one."
>>98282122got 2 more of these guys ready, we keep chugging to prep for the first game, now got 1 legal squad of these guys>>982821448th ed PE? which starter kit was that?
uhhhh, are we getting raided?
>>98282221Kino, what are these made from, Elysians?
>>98282122Finished using leftover harlequins I had lying around.
>>98282241Latest Cadian kill team.
>>98282233Don't worry about it. You were just seeing things. Of course my brother does not have a third arm under his robe. Anyways come out to the scripture reading tonight, it's in the church basement, we provide free food and drink, we're very welcoming to newcomers.
>>98282249>solitaire is so committed to the bit they have a third arm mutation >Cegorach... honk or no?
>>98282252Heads from the Cadian upgrade sprue or?
>>98282221Heads too big for their gotdang bodies
>>98282098Where at?
>>98282263They're wearing helmets with rebreathers. That's bulky gear. So many people in these threads make dumb comments like this about armour like it's supposed to be skintight, especially with Space Marines.
>>98282259Just old fashioned cadian bobble heads.
>>98282266Probably discord with the other trannies
These threads are really nice when people post models that aren't pr*maris
>>98282144I'm putting off painting some novitiates and repentias, they're primed and I have all the paints I just have to actually sit down and do them.I find it a bit irksome that everything is slightly different, all the autoguns and eviscerators are separate patterns even when they're from the same kit. It upsets my sense of neatness. Autoguns aren't even supposed to be expensive, why do we have like five variants?
>>98282267Yeah yeah /k/ommando, it looks realistic but it doesn't look good for minis when you look down at the table and just see a bunch of helmets with stick figure bods coming out from underneath. In any case I'm just confused how you managed to get them like this, cadians don't usually have such big noggins, is this a mix of kits, or printed bitz involved?
>>98282280>talks about how nice it is to post models >doesn’t post models himselfcurious!
>>98282122Been working on some lychguard, and assembling a Marshall to be next in the pipe when they're done.
>>98282285They're donated to the church from private citizens, or repurposed ones captured from heretics or dissidents, or hand built by the Sisters using them as part of their training, etc. It's unusual for things to be standardized unless you're on or near a Hive/Forge World getting shipments in bulk right from a manufactorum.
>>98282305What purposes do shields serve for necrons? Can’t they just have Star Wars force fields?
>>98282288I'm not the guy who made them actually, its just a pet peeve of mine when people talk about proportions of armour or wargear missing the fact that this shit is supposed to have bulk to it.
>>98282280can we see some of your firstborn?
If the necron were so advanced their tech outdoes every other facion in the setting by several magnitudes, why didn't they just make a spaceship and leave their shit planet to another one nearby that wasn't irradiated to shit?
>>98282314The shields ARE force field projectors, like almost every other shield in 40k
>>98282314Even more force field is packed into that thing, which is why it's called a dispersion shield
>>98282322the plot wouldn't happen if they did that
>>98282322Nucron lore is frankly a complete mess that should have never been written, just use the ol' "nulore ignore" on anything from 5th edition or later
>>98282315I get what you mean, and yes bulky armour is realistic. Miniatures aren't realism thoughbeit, and concessions/a bit of reality warping may (and should) occur to have a better looking mini on the tabletop
>>98282335They look good to me though
>>98282322It was baked into their genes or something don't worry about it
>>98282322I think the common excuse is that their genetic code was so fucked up by that point that simply moving to a better planet wouldn't help. They were just born sickly cancerous freaks.
>>98282343>>98282345Thinking about it, this is something that could theoretically really happen to a species, couldn't it?
>>98282305Crisp work on the shields. Is it a black with caliban green drybrush on the edges or is it something else you're doing on them?
>>98282231>which starter kit was that?This, the first box of plastic sisters from the range refresh in 2019.
>>98282369It's unlikely that a species having it's gametes bombarded with radiation in such a fashion would even survive, unless it was on the level of a cockroach or something.40k is not hard sci-fi
>>98282225I've held for a long time that if I ever did SoB army, I'd try to emulate the RT artwork using MkVI marines as the base.
>>98282369One would expect natural selection to gradually introduce resistance to the radiation, or for the species to simply die out. The lore kind of implies that ALL Necrontyr on the planet were equally fucked, however, so their genetic diversity must have been dogshit.
>>98282069>I think forgotten realms STINKS they should come up with new settingsYea you are supposed to do that yourself faggot. You are supposed to have your own system and lore and crusades. Armageddon is GW's original setting do not steal, it was created for their in house campaigns and their in house 'your dudes'. 40k was always designed to allow you to tell your own stories in it, so GW making more systems to tell the exact same story as Armageddon is pointless. Also, they do just have other warzones. Just in the last year we have had both the Nachmund Gauntlet and the Maelstrom.
>>98282433retard
>>98282385Thanks man, that part is black with a Caliban dry brush, yes, but then a lighter and smaller warpstone glow dry brush over the top of that, to give it a little pop towards the edges
>>98282443Nice. I haven't gotten to my own Lychguard yet but I expect I'll do something similar. My current plan is to do caliban green as the base for the shield, warpstone glow for the edges, and moot green highlights. It's how I do phase blades, but I may mix it up a little for shields when I get around to them.
>>98282221> rending laz-carbeans instead of glorious lethal 5's lasrifle.Not going to make it.
Reminder to take a group picture of your leaders.
>>98282467I've ended up with Caliban with a warpstone drybrush as the base for my shoulderplates and other armour bits I want to stand out, it's a nice colour for sure
>>98282122my first armageddon modelgonna work on the rest of the squad tonight
Got another five wraithguard painted for a game that's been postponed.
>>98282225Is that yours? I think you did a great job recreating her armour, I'm especially impressed by the rebreather
>Wanna play Kill Team>GW closed on Mondays and Tuesdays>Closest war game store is 12 miles from me>I don't know how to drive so I have to take Uber/Lyft>The prices for a drive to the store is $30 or more
>>98282601take a bus
>>98282259Just 3d prints of the old cadian FW helmets.
>>98282611There actually isn't any busses in my city as it's a suburban city. I wonder how someone opens up a table top store?
>>98282433Sadly newfags never read a white dwarf in the late '90s/early '00s to realize this. The hobby used to be for people who went the extra mile injecting their own ideas into it. Now people think there should be plastic kits for 100 different guard factions because the very concept of kitbashing your own guard is completely foreign. It's just the way of things, the gates weren't kept and now you have the lowest common denominator demanding absurd things constantly.
>>98282288Someone finally got around to making tracks for the new armored car
>>98282322because it was never about the radiation, and the Necrontyr didn't give a single solitary fuck what the cancer-ridden plebs had to suffer. They already had the damn cure for cancer, they were a massive interstellar empire for god's sake. They just didn't want to spend money healing their slave caste. See pic related for the truth
>>98282643Pic unrelated?
>>98282480
>>98282658>Desperate to unite their people, the Necrons' rulers began a war with the beings known as the Old Ones.They needed a war to distract their angry commoners from wanting to overthrow them for being assholes. The Necrons are pure and utter fucking evil from top to bottom.
>>98282564no, it's a post taken from instagram probably by an anon trying to bait people into "female marines" discussion.
>>98282335Proportionally larger heads look better on miniatures, retard. What do you think “heroic scale” is?
>>98282601get a bike
>>98282601Learn to fucking drive, loser.

>>98282639adorable
>>98282322C'tan Space Cancer isn't necessarily just radiation it could be basically indistinguishable from a curse.
>>98282663Did you miss the part where it says they're short-lives and all that. Nowhere does it say they were totally healthy.
>>98282686>5yrs to paint unless you go grimderp>boring as hell to play
>>98282686Solid list for 1000pts.
>>98282722It has redundancy which is the most important thing any good list needs. The lose of any one unit does not collapse the tactics or strategy. This is why my Eldar list has 3 Falcons and 3x5 Fire Dragon in them. I don't care if you think that's cheap or boring because I face Knights and IG tank spam on a regular basis.
>>98282686Your list would benefit greatly from a recon squad.>inb4 I dont want cadians in my krieg army.Model them as artillery spotter and/or trench raiders
>>98282480All my other ones are in my locker at my closest LGS
>>98282736In exchange for taking what out of the list
>>98282751>LGS has lockers where you can store your armies and not have to worry about transporting them for every sessionThat's a neat idea actually.
>>98282711The commoners, yes. But that isn't why they started the War in Heaven, illiterate. Read the image.
>>98282225>>98282564Can you just leave my hobby alone. I don't care what you paint, but you just don't like others having fun.
what's the best way to find semi-high effort army showcases that aren't just models in empty display cases/camera boxes?just digging through old codices?
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98282822You just had a refresh 10 years ago. What we really need is an entirely new xenos army.
>>98282831Chaos Votann!
>>98282831Chaos Eldar!
>>98282831Chaos Tau!
>>98282686If I were you, I'd swap the Earthshaker for a Hellhound or Wyvern, or a Leman Russ Demolisher if you're feeling adventurous. This army is going to be very slow and attritional and an armored assault vehicle of some flavor would make attacking defensible positions a lot easier and force the enemy to pay attention to where they put their anti-tank units.>>98282756NTA but probably death riders, even now I'm not quite sure what they're supposed to do that your 60 infantry and 7 officers can't, except be fast, and they aren't super good at that either. Besides, when you're grinding down the enemy with artillery one foxhole at a time, fighting through cramped trenches, narrow alleys, and piles of rubble, are your generals going to sit there and wish they had some light cavalry to do harassment maneuvers across the nonexistent open ground?
>>98282834ngl that would be pretty based
>>98282831space skaven soon
>>98282762>The commoners, yes.Nowhere does it say it's just the commoners. You're just making shit up.
>>98282785excuse me what kind of bait is this?
>going back to Armageddon again>space marines are going to just save the day by winning the popularity vote for the billionth time and nothing meaningful will change in the loreSo is the lore for this edition just completely fucked off rip or is there any hope of GW not shilling marines again?
>>98282802Old White Dwarfs.
>>98282852Anon what the fuck do you think Crypteks did prior to Biotransference? They were already super scientists. They already had technology to foretell the future, genetically engineer new species, build an interstellar empire, etc. etc. You seriously think the ruling class had to worry about cancer? The image already tells you it wasn't about the radiation, it was about keeping the slave castes from rebelling by giving them a war to distract them.
>>98282845If you have a good roll death riders + Dreir can do an unholy amount of devastating wounds when charging
>>98282867this would be cool, it is unfortunately headcannon
>>98282625>I wonder how someone opens up a table top store?Don't do this. You'll lose all your money and still have no games. Who do you think is going to run your store while you're playing???
>>98282785>some femmarine begging tranny buttmad about the "RT had female space marines" myth getting rekt
>>98282756Drop one of the kriegman blobs for 10 recon troops and a 5 man engineer squad.Put the radio beacon buy your artillery so the Marshal can actually use all his orders making your guns hit harder.
>>98282879With the new artillery rules the best you can make artillery hit is on 4s which you already get if you don't move the artillery and another of your units spot for them so orders are useless to them now.
>>98282834that would be their last chance to make space dwarves that aren't gay as hellunfortunately, chaos is inherently gas as hell, so not likely
>>98282892>already get if you don't move the artillery and another of your units spot for them so orders are useless to them now.The enemy gets cover when you shoot indirect which puts you back to hitting on 5's without orders.
>>98282872NTA but here's a pic from my 6th ed codex. The space cancer fucked them up early on and gave them a death obsessed culture, but they had spread to much of the galaxy and the war in heaven wasn't about a cancer cure. The public reason was they wanted immortality (which is not a cancer cure, but presumably gets mixed up with that as they're both medical adjacent). The real reason behind the scenes was to unite the species before a common enemy.The Silent King would have died of cancer before the war was over if he still had to deal with that, so the other anon's reasoning makes sense to me.
>>98282902fug
>>98282858GW doesn't give a shit who actually wins, they have the narrative they want to tell and just use this as a marketing campaign.
>>98282902>>98282907I don't see anything about them curing the ctancer there
>>98282907>as they grew more diverse, the unity that had made them strong was eroded, leading to bitter warsB-b-based GW?
>>98282901You don't shoot indirect if another unit spots for you>An unmodified hit roll of 1‑5 fails, unless your unitremained stationary this turn and the target isvisible to one or more friendly units, in which case anunmodified hit roll of 1‑3 fails instead
So I'm painting my first mini for my first army and mostly wanted to use it as a test since I knew it was probably going to come out terribly. Though I couldn't even finish it and had to stop at a certain point because I couldn't handle how awful it looks lmao. On the bright side I now know that painting white is a pain in the ass and the best way to do it is not to actually paint straight white onto a mini.May someone else also find enjoyment out of my shitty first ever model. Thankfully I'm figuring out how to do the White and thin out the paints so hopefully the next few models look better.
>>98282927Keep that first mini around, anon.Don't ever strip him or repaint him.
>>98282921
>>98282867Did (You) read it?>It was a war over the secrets of immortalityAnd if you read a little further on:>The legends speak of ancient star gods, beings formed from the fundamental energies of the universe, who offered Szarekh and his people all they had ever desired: power and immortality.Sounds a lot like the people who were masters of science hadn't cracked longevity. Ergo, they were short-lived like the text says and (You) keep ignoring with headcanon. Should we look at more Necron fluff?>The race that would become the Necrons began their existence under a fearsome, scourging star, billions of years before Mankind evolved on Terra. Assailed at every moment by solar winds and radiation storms, the flesh-and-blood Necrontyr became a morbid people whose precarious lifespans were riven by constant loss. Their dynasties were founded on the anticipation of demise, and the living were thought of as no more than temporary residents hurrying through the sepulchers and tombs of their ancestors. >Unable to find peace on their own planet, the Necrontyr blindly groped out towards other worlds. Using stasis-crypts aboard slow burning torch-ships, they began to colonize other planets. Little by little, the Necrontyr dynasties spread ever further, until much of the galaxy answered to their rule.Nothing about them curing themselves of their blight while also spreading across the galaxy.>As Szarekh watched the C’tan feast on the life essence of his people, he realized the terrible depth of his mistake. In many ways, he felt better than he had in decades, the countless aches and uncertainties of organic life now behind him. His new machine body was far mightier than the frail form he had tolerated for so long, and his thoughts were swifter and clearer than they had ever been. Why is the supreme leader of the most scientifically advanced empire in the galaxy feeling pain for decades and had to tolerate the frail form of his body? Where was their science?
>>98282912It's not explicitly mentioned as persisting, either. It's only really referred to in the pre-space travel history parts.
>more people are posting models in the sticky game thread on SP than here.grim.
Here's my dudes that I want to add some custom converted stormtroopers resembling the 2e style beret boys to. I'm torn between painting them in black fatigues like 2e box art, or giving the jungle camo because it's cool and integrates them into the force.
>>98282959be the change you want to see in the world
>>98282935
>>98282677That'll take a long time as I'll need to learn how to drive and I need to save a massive ton of money to buy a car.
>>98282995get a bicycle
>>98282943Already said I'm NTA. I just think it's plausible either way and the codex doesn't explicitly deny it. >hadn't cracked longevity. Ergo, they were short-livedHadn't cracked immortality, you mean, and there's a big range between short lived and immortal.The closest to confirmation of the cancer persisting there is the szarekh quote >frail form he had tolerated for so longwhich is suggestive, but not definitive. An older human being transferred to a robot body would believably say exactly the same thing.The rest is inference, rather than a direct quote saying the cancer was still a motivating factor. Which, I mean, is a bit rich when you're accusing other people of headcanon.
>>98283009IIRC in the Infinite and the Divine they mention that the necrontyr (including the nobility) were still suffering from it up to the biotransferrence
>>98282927Honestly anon? For a first mini that is excellent, especially so considering your primary color is white which is notoriously hard to work with.
>>98283009>>98283016actually yeah I remember now, the macguffin opened a tomb to a guy that was born free immune to it and that's why everyone wanted the body
>>98283016That's true! I do remember that, now that you mention it. I'll concede the point then.
>>98282959Stick what now
>>98283016I loved that book. Read it 4 times last year.
>>98283009>The rest is inference, rather than a direct quote saying the cancer was still a motivating factor. Which, I mean, is a bit rich when you're accusing other people of headcanon.When did I say cancer was the motivating factor? I've ignored that discussion completely because I had no dog in it and focused purely on the ass-pull headcanon that Necrontyr somehow fixed their space cancer, of which there is no evidence and plenty of evidence against.
Why'd they have to be so mean to the Lion? He was chill, just a bonk-boy with good rolls. Now he's B tier?
>>98282959/sp/ is only for /mlb/ and the World Series of Baseball threads.
>>98282845Right now his list negates all enemy antitank it wouldn't be wise to include a single tank
>>98283063and yet you don’t own a single necron model…
>>98283080This. Tanks are only worth taking if you're taking multiples, otherwise they're a magnet for all of your enemies antitank. My elder army has 3 Falcons, taking any less than 3 would be suicide against half my local opponents.
How did Kill Team play in editions before Kill Team as a separate game mode was a thing?
>>98281982>Yarrick EditionSo, is Yarrick actually still alive, or is the Imperium just doing a "Weekend at Bernie's" sort of thing with his corpse to keep morale high? Like what they've been doing with the God-Emperor for 10k years.
>>98283088Get nailed to a cross. You post models first. Dont forget the time stamp.
>>98283094Kind of like The Crucible game mode that has been getting popular lately. Just a smaller version of 40K with a few balancing rules.
i kinda wanna collect daemons but are they actually supported/not just designed to be souped with chaos marines + do ya'll expect them to get any model updates at all?
>>98283103Is that the gladiatoral arena one?
>>98283101GW is doing a "Nobody wants our Donut Steel Female Replacement Character™" so they brought back the model of the actually cool person that people liked.
How well do the layouts of maps from the games like Dawn of War translate to good tabletop game?
>>98283101Alive, but he has to watch as Primaris Marines are the only hope for saving his planet. Yes, it is that sad.
>>98283120You mean the character they announced at the same time as Yarrick's return?
>>98283125Not well. A big part of RTS's is fog of war which doesn't work for turn based table top games no matter what 11th edition is trying to push.
>>98283136Yes. Not!-Yarrick.
>>98283140Night fighting kind of worked but hidden is like a half assed version of it.
>>98283088Fuck off with this no models bullshit. I have a 2000+pts Necron army, I just have not updated it since 7th. All my old armies are in storage because I live in a shoebox apartment.
>>98283144So how could it be a reaction to them not wanting the new character when the new character was announced at the same time as Yarrick's new model
>>98283102damn, I was just making the meme about secondaries loving Infinite and the Divine, but since you challenged, I’d like to see your necron models.also might as well post the leaders for >>98282480 (though they’re technically mere nobs).
>>98282069They can't. There's only a handful of truly important worlds in the Imperium. Nobody cares about some random forge world in the middle of nowhere.
>>98283152Because the fanbase pissed and moaned at the suggestion Yarrick was dead immediately when it happen three years prior.

Should I pick up GK, Necrons, or Votann if I want an elite faction that gets to do interesting stuff in all phases?
>>98283174That's the only one of her drawn so far
>>98283177>redundant >getting into an argument over imperial guard and armageddon >making a diorama for the collage I stayed up just cause I was curious, but if this is the worst I’ve done, then it seems like my record is pretty good despite how active I am here. now, goodnight for real this time.
>>98283182Pick up GK so they get a refresh announced right after you buy them
>>98283182Necron nerf when?
>>98283120Its funny to me any time they do a female commissar character they have to make it a point that she's the real deal unlike the other (male popular) commissars and has no qualms about executing her men. Commissar Reine and Graves both follow this (also nobody likes them).
>>98283206>it's actually pretty good because I say soyeah shitposters generally downplay their obnoxious faggotry
Is the correct way to play Dark Eldar to assume that your units are gone whenever they get any serious attacks, and you're trying to trade units and spread out to win the VP game?
>>98283206>making a diorama for the collageyou CONSTANTLY replied to him, but nice try
>>98283227Weren't they promoting Reine's model as a fan favourite character before her novel was even out?
>>98283243Yeah she only had 1 or 2 short stories released at that point.
>Grey Knights are the chapter of psyler only space marines>Still not a single example of a blank marine >Closest we get is the gary stu powers of Titus but hes not a blankI'm assuming that like women, the astartes creation process simply doesn't work on blanks. Implying psyker bullshit is needed to make them like with primarchs who also don't contain a blank among their number
>>98283239Well, the highly mobile glass cannon usually isn't all that great at taking hits...
Honestly you could probably make the Tau out to be a serious threat just by having them invade Maccrage. They don't even have to win, just being able to threaten the planet would be enough.Look at all the other races that are considered important and you'll realize threatening one of the dozen or so important worlds in the Imperium is basically their only qualification.>Orks have never taken an important world, but consistently threaten to take Armageddon>Tyranids have never taken an important world, but have threatened Maccrage>Chaos has taken an important world (Cadia) and they threaten Terra>The Necrons are still too asleep to be considered a serious threat, and they haven't invaded any important worlds yet, but there's implications they might do so in the future
>>98283356Didn't they do that in one of the Uriel Ventris books? Or was that some podunk world in Smurflandia?
>>98283356As well, the Space Marines are powerful enough to take out one of the Xenos easily alone. The only thing that makes sense is if the alien species have some kind of agreement, but I don't recall that ever being explored.
>>98283356It would take the Tau like 1000 years to even get there
>>98283368>the Space Marines are powerful enough to take out one of the Xenos easily aloneThe combined might of all the Space Marines, sure, but no single chapter is enough.
I just bought Intanzia Freye, a squad of Insidiants, a squad of Initiates, and the Demonifuge to expand my options going into 11th edition. So now this is all my options https://www.newrecruit.eu/app/list/JHjEU.I'm pretty sure Infiltrate is going to be good considering multiple of the dispositions want to rush around the board early doing actions or touching terrain, and Initiates have that. But I haven't really found room for them yet, might cut a normal battleline squad for some. I also love the Insidiant models, especially the one with the shield so I want to run them, but Sacresants have been pulling heavy duty as a tar pit that sits on the central objective and I don't see that changing since they just buffed them in the form of being able to take a Hospitaller and a Palatine, instead of having to choose one or the other. The points cost increase merely offset that buff, so I'm fine with it.Here's what I'm going into 11th edition with. It's not actually that different from what I ran throughout 10th, and it feels like it leans into what the Purge disposition wants to be doing. https://www.newrecruit.eu/app/list/ydb7PI love my army and I feel good about how it's going to fit in the disposition system, purge feels like a natural no-brainer.I hope you're all doing well and excited for the new edition and updating your lists!
>>98283227Commissar Gaunt is pretty awful with his moral grandstanding desu, even if Abnett was clearly only getting his feet wet in the setting when he wrote Gaunt's Ghosts it's super annoying every time Gaunt is the one good man surrounded by infinitely incompetent rival officers and commissars who are all bad evil and stupid because they don't hesitate to execute a man to set an example. There's no real in-universe explanation for it either, Gaunt didn't have a special upbringing or education, he's just innately good and everyone else in the upper ranks of the crusade is innately evil. It's really shitty writing.I can excuse Cain being a dork because his successes are largely thanks to sheer, impossibly good luck being on his side rather than him being the lone uncorrupt, hyper-competent officer in the entire Imperium. Gaunt's writing is just pure and utter dogshit.
>>98283227If they had just made Raine a no-name female commissar model with boob plate she would have been popular. The female genestealer magus is the perfect example of how this works. No fanfare, no special names, no books. Just make a cunty model that works the same as the male counterpart and people will like it.
>>98282958and thats why its headcannon. its good headcanon, but headcanon. Because it isnt explicitly stated one way or the other. But we do have sources that say they started a war for immortality.
>>98283356it's not that no important worlds have ever been taken, it's that after they've been taken they're no longer important worlds so they don't get detailed, and once they're detailed gw is hesitant on scrapping them
>>98283266>gary stu powers of Titushe's just a latent psyker
>>98283266There have been attempts to create Blank marines before, all have ended in horribly mutated failures. Geneseed are inherently tied to the Primarch via the Warp, so you can't really make a Blank marine.
>>98283454Nah, let's be honest, the Imperium having a million worlds means that there's only two types of important worlds:>Terra and Mars, who have very important shit on them>A dozen or so other worlds that are basically just symbolically importantNobody gives a shit about some no name forge world, the Imperium has hundreds of forge worlds, and tens of thousands of hive worlds
>>98283439and sources that say it was to unite their fracturing empire, either way it wasn't to save the common masses, as their current attitude of complete disinterest to the lowest castes of warriors continues to demonstrate
>>98283413You're the first person I've seen not running your warsuits with multi-meltas. Are the alternate loadouts any good? Is it time for me to figure out magnets?
Tell me the name of your homebrew space marine chapter/Sisters order/ork clan/Eldar craftworld/whatever.
>>98283524Thinking of calling my EC the 8th Millennial since millennials are what they called their chapter equivalent in the great crusade and horus heresy, and the first 10 millennials were led by Lord Commanders which were the big wigs after Fulgrim. Problem is idk how I want to paint them
>>98283524I dunno, they're just /mydudes/
>>98283524The Thes.They start every title with The.
>>98283524CSM Warband called the Tain led by Narakhon the Nightmare, his flagship is called the Paragon of Virture
>>98283536Fuck ON Destinyfag
I know that the old 90s pics of Exodites have them look exactly like this, but I wish they didn't just look like Craftworlders. They should have their own unique look to them, the same way Dark Eldar do.
Does a Sister sentenced to be a Mortifier ever get released, the way Repentias do?
>>98283556no, that shit's till they die
>>98283556I highly doubt it.Sisters that fuck up are punished to become repentia. Repentia that fuck up become Mortifiers. The Imperium is unforgiving and the sisters emphasize all the bad aspect of the Imperium.I highly fucking doubt it.
>>98283556I'm making some mortifiers soon, is the anchorite sarcophagus the actual sarcophagus you see in that image? As in, if I want the rule on my mortifier, do I have to use that instead of the screaming woman, which looks cooler?
>>98283556>people will be deadass and tell you these are the good guys
>>98283532That's a cool name and background for it
>>98283583Here's a fun idea, rather than having the "are the imperium the bad guys or the good guys" discussion again, why don't you try playing the whole thing out in your head? I'm sure you've heard it enough times to know how it goes.
>>98283584Thanks anon. Part of me wants to paint 'em as the heresy era scheme but that feels too cliche. I felt most people painted them that way hence my question last thread on what's more common, that or pink and black. I suck at coming up with my own schemes that would satisfy me, I usually have to base it off something and I'm kinda lost for EC
>We got Corsair Eldar earlier>We just got exoditesSomeone who can make good looking photo edits should change this with the pics of the models made.All we need now is CWE, Crone World Eldar and the two or three variants they could take, mutated vampire bat monsters and eldar with spikes and true chaos worshippers
>>98283588When EC came out anons made this for types of schemes, I doubt anyone has painted most of these
Pitch your idea for a new army that isn't Dark Mechanicus, Traitor Guard, Exodites, Corsairs, or any type of space marine.
>>98283596Shit these are good, thanks!
>>98283600MY WIFE ARGENTA
>>98283524The Bearers of LightHouse OortThe Seven Knights of the OctagonThe Neuvian SlummersThe Toxin RainHow do you make craftworld names without just knuckling your keyboard?
>>98283600Croneworld EldarGrot not! communists, maybne using the little grene men/grey alien type aesthetic Some sort of chaos xenos if not Crone World Eldar
>>98282503Love the bases
>>98283609Thanks!
>>98283603How can you tell? They all look the same.
>>98283600The Slaugh (their armies finally invade Imperial space)The Rangdan Returned (exactly what it sounds like)The HrudThe Fringe Warlords (human rebels and outcasts that live on the edges of Imperial space, pirates and raiders, scum and villainy. Not Chaos corrupted, but likely sliding into either that or xenos corruption. Like a Space version of the Darkoath Tribes)
Votann need bigger Heat weapons.
>>98283600Khrave could be cool, 40k not! alien vampires
>>98283600If you wanted a truly new army like what the Tau were when they came out then I think the only avenue left is a full AI race. Not quite Men of Iron and not quite rogue Tau drone tech but something completely standalone.Or some kind of psychic race like the demiurge but not crippled fetuses.
>>98282785What are you talking about?
>>98283629stop replying to your own failed bait
>>98283627Imagine a game set in that artsttyle... Hnnng...
>>98283524Akasekh Dynasty.It's a derivation of Acacia, the Latin name for wattle, as the green and gold wattle is a national emblem for my country (straya), and my dynasty scheme is green and gold.Lore wise they're a client of the Sautekh dynasty, which is why there are older models in the Sautekh scheme filling out the ranks. They have higher than usual rates of destroyer curse affliction, and rivalries with the Lyanden craft world and a minor BT crusade which I haven't named yet.
>>98283600I will offer something radically different: Split Orks into six separate clans, ala space marines, with all having the same basic rules, but unique bonus units and detachments.
>>98283600Chaos Xenos
>>98283600Xenos coalitions banding together for survival/piracy/revenge. Less like the Tau and more like the Covenant.Men of Iron sentient virus that some retard techpriest let out of the black wall.Something elemental, like a fundamental forces of the universe reacting against the warp.The Balls from Astartes.

>>98283600space skaven
>>98283641They’ll never make another “alliance of many races” as long as Tau exist, which is sad because Tau only have three, and Vespid barely exist.
>>98283666I am astonished we still don't have a Gue'Vesa Kill Team or something like that. It would probably sell better than any other Tau product just because it has humans in it.
>>98283524Order of the Emperor's Fury. They worship a syncretism of Khorne and the Emperor. They do not realize this. They are loyalists who happen to look and act like a female version of the Blood Pact.>>98283583Yes, we here in the Adepta Sororitas have literally never ever done even a single thing wrong, as evidenced by the fact that we deal with uncooperative foids by stripping them half-naked before sending them on the most dangerous missions we can find.
i want space rats
>>98283600Lizardmen + Kaiju
>>98283659>>98283677out of infinite possibilities, you chose the worst one you possibly could. The rats have already more or less ruined Fantasy/AoS by drawing in the furry crowd, 40k is completely fucked if they add anything remotely similar
>>98283682Don't care about your crying
>>98283685ah, so you're one of the fag furries who wants to masturbate to gay rats in space. Noted.
>>98283687Don't care about your projection either

Which are the most INT race in 40k?

>>98283733something for the furries
>>98283724There should be some sort of organisation of the best killers and champions in the galaxy chaos has who get orders to kill different loyalist chapter masters.Could see it being an Alpha Legion creation who gather info on targets and where to find and kill them.
>>98283739NOOO THOSE ARE DIFFERENT THEY DON'T COUNT
>>98283745Chaos Deathwatch?
>>98283650Rip Wayne June.He had an amazing voice and his narration would have been nice for warhammer 40k stuff.I still love the darkest dungeon artstyle. Shame that the board game got strangled so the official miniatures I think are lost now.
>>98283739Ummm ackshully the dkok is trench warfare.The steel legion are mechanized warfare.
>>98283753yeah bascially, but killing other space marines not fighting xenos. Or I guess inuqistors as well and people like that who can actually hinder CSM warbands.If its an Alpha Legion organisation you can even imply that its Alpharius himself running it behind the scenes. Since how else is it so well connected to so many chaos warbands and imperial forces and so good at gathering intelligence. It's not of hom of course, it never is unless?
>>98282629>Now people think there should be plastic kits for 100 different guard factionsIf they are all modular so compatible with each other than yeah there should be. The small anvil industry studio accomplishes this just fine.There should be that many for marines, eldar, tau and more.But this is not a perfect world.
>>98282802Armies on Parade entries.
>>98283782>3rd party bitsBut there are 3rd party compatible bits, tons of them. GW even sanctions them. SM2 famously has a thousand sons rhino upgrade kit that is 3rd party and GW is super anal about model fidelity. That rhino kit, btw, they initially DMCA'd then completely dropped it against the guy because they just wanted him to change the title slightly of his kit. And it is based and a good thing, yea I agree.I was talking about bespoke plastic GW kits. We did used to have upgrade kits which were fantastic but imo it isnt neccessary if you just use 3rd party bits.
>>98283791>tons of compatible third partyFor now until gw changes the scale. Only now are properly compatible bits being made compatible for the new cadians.I’m not sure how modular the plastic Krieg are with the cadians. By compatible I mean how easy it is to swap limbs torsos and heads.>GW even sanctions third partySince when? They are super protective of 40k to a fault when it comes to money.>sm2 had a third party modelI need proofs of this I want a good laugh.>I was talking about bespoke plastic gw kitsFair enough.

>>98283600Space Vampires, turn people into controlled blood lusted zombies (think rage zombies from 28 days later). They consume pounds of human flesh a day as they grow in power. They breed elevating their favored servants. They can do it to all species but mostly prey on humans because they are so high in population. They have huge gross bat monsters that are like multiple people stapled together to function as arms, wings with a giant tooth filled maw and all of the vampires are powerful psykers. They also have skeletons.
>>98284003>also skelliesSold.
>>98284003Their leaders are all fat hapsburg hedonistic looking bastards, including the women. Some of them live among humans as cannibalistic mob bosses or imperial nobles, where it is treated as "just some unfortunate proclivities".
Do any of the new Ogre kits catch your eye?
>>98284003>They have huge gross bat monsters that are like multiple people stapled together to function as armsYou know 40k is lacking a giant monster made out of fused bodies of people now that you mention it
>>98284091All of them, they all look so good they're kinda ruined ogres in total war warhammer for me because the ogres in game are less cool than the new ogre minis. Also love how all the tyrants have Golfags maw symbol on their back now, great design.Uhhh 40k ogyrns should worship a minor chaos god called the Maw that delivers instabilie hunger to its followers something something 40k on topic post
>>98284092I remember mantic of all companies making what is essentially a hulk of dead corpses called a goreblight.I would love to know what such a monster is traditionally called to find more stls to use as chaos spawns in 40k.
Could I in theory get away with using Horus heresy leman russ lascannon main turret cannons as a battle cannon and twin linked stls as heavy bolters for a maximum pew pew leman russ proxy?I am feeling like going on an stl hunting expedition to find such bits to modify.I’m not sure if the hh solar auxilia vehicles have faithful recreations from scans yet.
>>98284091>>98284102Hell yeah brother Codex: ogryns when?
>>98284107>what such a monster is traditionally calledI think its one of the few types of creatures that hasn't been codified into a single D7D monster with all its powers and abilites catalogued and put neatly in different boxes. (You) anon have the freedom to call it what you want, make it do what you want with no limits of other peoples expectations holding you back.
>>98284092Okay lets add eldritch space abombinations made of amalgamated flesh and flesh crypts that they live in to the list. They can eat people and regurgitate is magical flesh they can control and use to do instinctual fleshcrafting. The dark eldar kind of hate them because they view it as primitive and gross.NGL this is shaping up to a pretty cool aesthetic.>rage zombies>mind control>fat bastard cannibals>eldritch flesh constructs>skeletons>bat aesthetics
>>98284141>>98284124>>98284107the lack of the "eldritch" aesthetic in 40k is best filled by tyranids. They are the extragalactic massive space creature factions, make astropaths go insane when they feel them in the warp, unironically the closest thing to cthulu mythos.
>>98284141Can you explain how this fleshy/flesh crafting faction uses skeletons, which are defined as being fleshless.Also >flesh cryptSuch a cool term, thats being added in mind to blood cemetery as very metal and grimdark funerary areas. blood cemetery came from a song name by kingcobra, miss that guy
>>98284092I think that stuff exists in the lore for Dark Eldar Haemonculus Covens that sculpt bodies together into artworks and engines of war. They don't have any models for it anymore besides pain engines.
>>98284155Fucking hell we need a plastic Grotesque kit so badly.
>>98284091>>98284102It's funny that they made the gut plate bigger to hide the nipples. I think only the butcher has visible nipples>cannibalism is alright>but nipples? Have some decency, man
>>98284153I've got it. The skeletons are puppeted by tiny bits of flesh remaining after everything else was devoured. They willingly allow themselves to be eaten because of the mind control and seek to bring others to the master to also be devoured.>the most unfortunate of their victims are the Wasted. Those who serve the longest willingly allow themselves to be devoured by their masters, denied a true death by their unnatural powers. The sinewy meat that remains is possessed of an unholy power, enough to serve the masters designs as the bodyguards and laborers. Despite their appearance, they are still possessed of a fiendish intelligence. They will do anything to provide the master with more flesh, reveling in the masters feasts in ecstatic vicarious pleasure.
>>98284163there are nipple slips here and there
>>98284155They do in lore, but if there's no mini or art of it it doesn't really stick in peoples mind as existing in 40k you know>>98284163Its even stranger than GW felt like hidding the nipples of female ogres after having a few male ogor nippels showing. People only realised they were female ogors because of the random chest hiding, GW could have had topless women ogors models and no one would notice imo.>>98284146Ehh we're discussing fleshly aesthetic which isnt eldtrich per se. Eldtrich is more tentacles, connected to the stars/moon somehow , psyker, anicent aliens that aren;t humanoid in shape, type aesthetic not fleshcrafting and many people stiched together.>>98284171That's a cool idea, so they're just more flesh stripped zombies. Kinda reminds of of the skin bandits from kenshi, but instead of robots skinning people to use their flesh as skin its skeletons
>>98284003>>98284034>>98284092>>98284141>>98284171I don't think you guys get that a 40k faction should at least TRY to play around with sci fi themes, in addition to carrying over fantasy elements.
>>98284199
>>9828419940k is space fantasy, ergo fantasy foremost, in space second.
>>98284199The space vampires are degenarate sci fi space nobles like normal vampires. But they got their cruse from staring into the heart of a evil star while on the bridge of some pleasure ship. Bam sci-fi theme evil living creature that just looks like a star but makes people flesheating, fleshcraft monsters The star is orbited by a planet made of flesh from some past interstellar cilvisation that was exposed to it, cursed and slughtered their own people
>>98284208>foremostForemost doesn't mean exclusively, there's nothing of this idea that would make it out of place in fantasy or aos, that's bad, you've got plenty of sci fi zombies, just grab more stuff from them.>inb4 daemons are not out of place in fantasy or aosAnd daemons are bad when on their own, surely you can do better with your own faction than being almost as good as demons.
Do you think GW will kill off Greys completely in the near future or do you think we'll have reboot of 40K? Because this setting them up against Custodes obviously won't be ending well and smells like something big coming.
>>98284239Grey Knights are getting a refresh so they don't look like tin can oompa loompas next to their own character model that came out last edition.The terminus decree was mostly a plot device so irl players have a reason to have custodes fight grey knights in games
>>98284223Vampires + Dead Space in 40k. Holy insanely omega based.
>>98284242Obviously, but this seems like a really shitty setup when you think about it. No fucking way that Greys would get anything out of this, imo it's probably going to be worse than throwing hands with space furries.
>>98284239grey knights are getting completely updated in the near future, they're not going away, nothing is going away, we just got exodites for fuck's sake, gw aims to have everything it's ever mentioned about 40k as a product one way or another.the plot hook regarding the emperor is something that gw will never actually move forward to, it's a too significant event that would have a too significant change in status quo, and shit like that is only done when the product is failing and needs a daring restructuring, but 40k is more popular than ever, so the status quo stays. they don't even have the balls to have armageddon fall.
>>98283600As multiple others have said, some sort of xenos soup army of minor species like the Q'Orl Empire, Slann, Zoats etc.As many of the other posts have demonstrated, nothing else would fit the setting and I can't see them doing anything genuinely new or interesting. GW shouldn't add any further new armies after that, just add more units to existing armies.
>>98284224>Foremost doesn't mean exclusivelyNo shit, sherlock.
>>98284273Then where's the sci fi shit, watson?
>>9828360750s pulpy Gray/green aliens is based and should be added, not sure about a whole dedicated faction but definitely as models for something
Why do all the mission layouts have square or rectangle footprints? Why no round or oval or other shapes? I can't do a wilderness or forest table without it looks really strange once it's laid out for the missions...
>>98284239They're rapdidly running out of marines to refresh, no way they're dropping a pre-established flavour of marines they can actually make alternate sculpts for
>>98282122Still working on my Warboss. Moved on from the banner and started on the dude himself. Just about done with basecoats.
>>98284313Obvious next step: refresh the firstborn into primaris scale
>>98284311You should be suspension of disbelief-ing the table in a wargame.
>>98284242>Grey Knights are getting a refresh>grey knights are getting completely updated in the near futurehow are we feeling about that happening this edition? this venerable dreadnought refresh would be good timing to refresh grey knights too given it's one of the few units they can take. i'm tempted to buy some boxnoughts while they're still available because if the redemptor is anything to go by the new venerable dread will look like a fisher price toy
>>98284289here
>>98284327I'd say its bascially 100%. They're the last range of old marines that were small even when compared to the last of the non primaris space marines. They got a character model thats is hilariously out of scale with the rest of the army. I cannot see GW waiting 4-5 more years to update them. Its this edition for sure
>>98284311Just arrange the trees and stuff in circular shapes. The terrain footprint won't matter that much as long as the relative distance between them is the same.
I dropped a gretchin and he disappeared under the couch. He's just gone. Nowhere. Missing. Disappeared. I'm fucking devastated.
>>98284357Doze runts can be reel sneeky.
>>98284327Sorry this is the Dark Eldar and Iron Warriors editionGrey Knights will get their day in 12e when they face off against the Word Bearers
>>98284357You got a pet? They'll find it no problem.
>>98283600Actual Greys are a scifi cliche which is sorely neededGameplay niche would be essentially inbetween of Eldar and TauSmall and weak in melee like Tau but unlike EldarGood Ranged weaponsGood PsionicsMind control powersGood Tech
>>98284357Just move your couch man
>>98284397I think necrons stole their weapons with the annhilator beams and gauss cannons. Always seemed like stereotypical grey rayguns to me
>>98284311I swear 90% of 40k players are fucking braindead when it comes to this hobby. Make your own fucking footprints you lazy piece of shit. You can paint 200 dudes but you can't make a base for some fucking trees fuck you
>>98284408Took the words out of my mouth, was gonna say their iconic weapons fo death rays was taken by necrons.>>98284397Everything that defines them, other than the greys desing themselves, has been used for other xenos factions, just split up and divided across different factions
>>98284408Greys are kinda spread over Tau and Eldar. Eldar vehicles look like saucers kinda. Tau are a rip off of Star Wars CIS which had inspiration from greys, but are blue instead
>>98284397they can and should flat out copy xcomI think ill play xenonauts again
>>98283600Have GW buy the rights since the IP is dead anyway.
>>98284397>>98284415>>98284416Greys and the little fuckers from Mars Attacks! should each get a kill team with crazy psionics and ray guns respectively and then given rules as tau auxiliary forces. Then give the greys a literal flying saucer vehicle with an abduction mechanic. This is what 40k NEEDS and I won't be convinced otherwise
>>98284351their terminators are gigamanlets, it's insane. i built some not long ago and i bulked them up with a bit of green stuff under their torso for a couple mm of height and put some 2mm plasticard under their feet. i really gave them as much manlet hightfrauding as i could without making them look like lanklets and they're still tiny next to new terminators. i'm tempted to buy some more so i can actually play them on the table but knowing my luck that would trigger the refresh announcement the next week.
>>98284351Will they remain first born marines even when they mog the others in size?
>>98284397I thank God you're not on the GW design team this idea is so ass
>>98284429Could you take a picture of them so we can see how how frame mogged they are by the new termies> i really gave them as much manlet hightfrauding as i couldkek>>98284427God that would be so based, alas EA and GW don't do something fun like that. Wonder how much EA would charge to give up the Dead Space IP, the remake flopped by their standards but still made like tens of millions in sales
>>98284436They stay firstborn but they're getting upscaled anyway, their genesperm is special enough to justify that.
All of this post models bullshit is making me repaint my armies. My orks in particular are poorly painted because its the oldest army I have and painted them as a kid. The only reason I don't post models right now is because I am embarrassed of the quality of my paint jobs. Its definitely motivating me to paint though.
>>98283600Severan Dominate
>>98284448Companies like EA rarely sell IPs, if ever. They've bought up all those studios and IPs and they are content to sit on them for years without making anything with them as long as it prevents others from making stuff with them. They'd also charge an arm and a leg to license it to GW for minis so no chance of it happening. GW would need to make their own legally distinct version which would probably feel closer to tyranids somehow
>>98284475>They've bought up all those studios and IPs and they are content to sit on them for years without making anything Are video game companies obligated to make games of those ips every decades or two to keep the IPs or they go to up for resell or is that just like superhero IPs like why sony keeps making spiderman movies
>>98284397no... we dont need ACTUAL xenos...
>>98284289They are in space. Space doesn't mean sci-fi.Retards confused space with sci-fi. Star wars isn't sci-fi, it's a space opera. 40k isn't sci-fi, it's space fantasy.
>>98284487>Are video game companies obligated to make games of those ips every decades or two to keep the IPs No, because they are the owns that own the IP.>or they go to up for resell or is that just like superhero IPs like why sony keeps making spiderman moviesSony has to do that because they have the rights to make movies based on Marvel's IP. They do not own Spiderman, but they have to prove to Marvel that they're using the rights they bought in order to keep them.
>>98284487No because they have actual ownership and can sit on it for forever. For most hollywood rights licensing deals like the sony one they put that clause in when the rights are sold but it doesn't happen for vidya when EA or Ubisoft or Xbox or whoever outright buys the original studio, adds the IP to their collection, and then fires all the devs.
>>98284499Fuck, thought maybe they remade Dead Space to keep some IP law satisified, even though the Dead Space remake had plenty of problems with the small and big changes they made.What a pity something so cool is in the IP corperate cuck cage forever. Instead of being on a ship of 1,000 with a necromorph outbreak imagine a moderate hive city of 10,000,000,000
>>98284450Post models as soon as you finish repainting just a few of them.
With how much lore the Ultramarines have with the Tyrnaids it's weird that none of that appear in their models (minus the Terminator Captain model)
>>98284513EA in particular is like the supreme example of buying cool shit, making it gay, and then shelving it forever. Another example dear to my heart is the Overlord game series, which they bought in 2021 and have not even attempted considering making a new installment of.
>>98284536I'd ask for new tyranid war vets, but they won't be as cool as the old ones nor that fanart
>>98284536They had a unit called tyrannic war veterans in 4th.
>>98284448it's a brutal mogging, lad. they're based on the same height cork and even with the height frauding the poor little grey knight is getting mogged bad. with the plasticard shoe inserts and the greenstuff torso lengthening surgery the height wouldn't be so bad really now, what's absolutely killing him here is the frame mogging, looks like a dyel standing next to a roided bodybuilder. look at the delt mogging going on here. this grey knight would probably get mogged by one of the new armageddon ork boyz
>>98284547For the last 15ish years Ive been mostly supporting indie gaming. Stuff like Enter the Gungeon, Star Sector and Rimworld. I could care less about what the so called "AAA" industry is doing. Much like hollywood the "AAA" scene keeps seeing flop after flop (Im looking at you bioware). I hope the gaming market crashes and a new wave of indie excellence rises out of it.
>>98284580Actually with AAA facing huge layoffs, AA like expedition 33 seeing great success, and indie games doing well despite the tidal wave of slop around them, we could very well be a few years away from a reset in the vidya industry, sending us back to an era where smaller teams make smaller games that are fun to play and continue to exist that way. And a few years after that we'll repeat history and see those successful smaller studios get bought up by new big publishers who will eventually bloat into more mass layoffs, etc
>>98284552>>98284563huh, well I guess that's the curse of being the poster boys, you don't get to have super special units
>>98284578Grey Knights will get Primaris'd and then you sissies will be crying
>>98284578God they're so fucking lanky. Like if power armour had a meth addiction. I think Angorns chain axe and sword blades are as thick as their limbs. no wonder he killed 100+ of their best by himself in ambush they started.
>>98284492Both of those are just types of sci fiIf it's in space it is sci fi
>>98284536tyrannic war veterans for ultramarines made sense when the attack on maccrage was a fresh event and tyranids too were relatively new so it could be the ultras' "thing".but now a lot of chapters have had catastrophic losses due to the tyranids one way or another and it would make little sense to make tyrannic war vets an ultra only thing.but turning them into a generic unit raises a different question: why not similar veterans for ork wars? or for necron wars?Designing a kit so that each member of the squad can be decorated with either necron, tyranid, or ork trophies is too much for modern gw, while having each member decorated in different alien trophies too schizophrenic, while making 3 such units is also too much.I think the ideal solution is making three generic [x]-war veteran character model, one for each major alien threat, with enough alien trophies to its sprues that you decorate the squad you attach the dude to.And technically we have one such character.
>>98284536>>98284552Nah. The sculptor who made the new tyranid red terror was the same guy who did the victrix honor guard. If GW put him onto UM tyrannic war vets they'd probably look good too.
>>98284536pedo artist?
>>98284591>you might live to see planetside 3 become real and made by a loving indie studioPLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. and make a warhammer themed empire at war game dammit, it would be perfect.
>>98284601I will be unless they keep their cool helmet design
>>98283600You will find my argument clearly laid out in this five minute presentation:https://xcancel.com/Rigid3d/status/2058663607911498050#m
>>98284492Don't get tangled into semantics; star wars has aliens, lasers, spaceships, futuristic soldiers and robots.The suggested vampire faction has nothing other than magic and the word "space" slapped here and there with no meaning attached to it.
We all agree that meta chasing and buying armies because they're good is complete WAACfaggotry.But is it WAAC if your army is currently mid/below mid and you take what you believe is more or less the best list you can assemble?
>>98284614>space opera and space fantasy are just types of sci-fiOkay retardo.>>98284596They do have the victrix guard>>98284627It's an alright kit, the banner steals the show. For the marines themselves they are mostly taking the good bits from old minis but are less interesting.I dare expect a bit more from my miniatures than an alright job of a pastiche of older great jobs.
>>98284642>But is it WAAC if you>take what you believe is more or less the best list you can assembleyes
>>98284634According to former planetside devs it isn't likely because a game like that requires an engine built from the ground up just for it and the current IP owners are not skilled enough for that. Maybe a spiritual successor from a team of diehard fans with programming chops
>>98284639>don't get tangled in semantics>but let me stop at a quick description of some anon's ideaIf I presented to you eldars as a dying race of elves with unmatched wargear and a warrior/monk culture, you could also say there isn't space in it.
>>98284642>But is it WAAC if your army is currently mid/below mid and you take what you believe is more or less the best list you can assemble?I play Orks, if I don't WAACfag I wouldn't win a single game.
>>98284648But it's not at all costs, there's choosing to not kneecap yourself and then there's sacrificing all your principles and buying necrons because they're good at the moment.
I just think the rogal dorn tanks are really cool and that every game should have at least 3 of them on the field
>>98284660nta but are we really gonna say it's not waacfag if it's not 110% the best list ever possible?You do understand it's not literally at all costs? Hyperboles?
>>98284650Anon who first of it, what name do you think would suit the vampires and their fleshmelded zomibes and skeletons
>>98284666Flesh Tearer Courts
>>98284650>>but let me stop at a quick descriptionI did the complete opposite of stopping you, or the other anon, I asked for the additional parts that would make the concept click and be at home in a sci-fi/space-fantasy/whatever-the-fuck-you-don't-fell-offended-by, like the rest of the factions already do.
>>98284660>there's choosing to not kneecap yourselfthat's how a waacfag justifies his illness
>>98284664So what's the line? From what you say it reads as "winning at all costs" = "not making a shitty list on purpose".Did I get that right?
>>98284662If you buy me 3 rogal dorns I'll play them.
>>98284666>the zombified werewolf's neck is broken and the head is twisted 180 degrees while with a broken jawOk that's pretty horrifying.
>>98284668Name taken but its a cool concept and a cool name. I'll allow it
>>98284677>from what you sayNTA means not that anon.>where is the line?I'd say intent is a good start>did I get that rightNo, you sound like a defensive faggot who doesn't like being held accountable for his waacfaggotry, but I just got here.
>>98284678sent ;)
>>98284660>not taking the best performing list of your army is kneecapping yourselfWaacfaggot.
>>98284688>I'd say intent is a good startMy intent is to have a good game and not be punching bag. Am I a waacfag?
Speaking of vampire counts in 40k, Kabal of the Last Hatred also fields stitched-up undead shock troops to support their soul vampire elites.
>>98284700>best performing list of your armyThat's not what I said. Go back to school buddy. :)I said what YOU BELIEVE is the best out of what you can assemble (own).Also, my army is currently so bad it doesn't even have any 'best performing' lists on listhammer etc. :)
>>98284655This. Also it's funny when a mid army like orks raises its head above the parapets for a week and everyone shits a brick and demands instant nerfs like is happening now
>>98284666Actual anon hereI have my own space vampires It's a twin species, Noctissians and Nosferraxes. First are pureblood space vampires with symbiotic (for them) parasitic (for their victims) leaches, while the latter is what happens when their genetic degrades over a long time/many generations.Noctissians is a mix of nocturnal/night and something to make it sound refined/posh. Nosferrax is nosferatu + something brutal, animal.
>>98284578I'm sure someone's done it already but how do the modern termies look with GK heads, shoulders and weapons? I imagine it'd be a vast improvement, if expensive.
>>98284702With how deflecting and dishonest you are? Has to be a waacfag.The self-centeredness is also a good fucking clue.>>98284705I'm not against technical/mechanical speech for mechanicus characters, but for some reason it always sounds bad/retarded. As if it was just a style/appearance rather than a meaningful change in speech.In short: I wish it was, rather than appeared as.
What should i do>start painting a bunch of metamorphs>build a wartrakkAlso does anyone know if there is someone out there that sells gsc transfers?
>>98284721>and you take what you believe is more or less the best list you can assemble?If the only thing stopping you from being a waacfag is the lack of money to buy the good units of your army, then you're still just a waacfag, a poor one, but a waacfag.
>>98284752wartrakk
>>98284736I suspected it wasn't you since it wasn't that creative. That's pretty cool. So really its one species, but the first are so disgusted by their degenerated cousins they just refer to them as another species or are they literally two different species after so long apart (like hundreds of thousands of years minium).The naming scheme reminds me of the twin eternal cities of the Nox, Nosktella and Nokron, was elden ring an inspiration to you at all?>>98284719I forgot about them. God Deldar are cool. I think thats the first time necromantic has been used in a 40k setting.
>>98284757What if what prevents me from owning/using certain units is the fact that I don't like them and not money? For example Deldar player not using cabal units because they don't enjoy that aspect of army.
>>98284752wartrakk, and be sure to paint it blue as its /40kg/ tradition.
>>98284257They did squat the Harlequins.
>>98284786>What if what prevents me from using certain units is the fact that I don't like themThen you're not taking what you believe is the best list you can assemble
>>98284802No, they didn't, they're still on the webstore, they've still got rules printed in an actual codex, their fluff hasn't changed, they have more kits than they've ever had, they're not going anywhere.They just don't have enough stuff to justify an independent codex and so they're inside the other eldar armies, as they've worked for the most of their existence.
>>98284772>but the first are so disgusted by their degenerated cousins they just refer to them as another species or are they literally two different species after so long apart (like hundreds of thousands of years minium)Both. I don't see a point in drawing a hard line. For me the point of a setting is to be a toolbox for interesting stories, so drawing hard lines is rarely good nor necessary.There can exist large "colonies" of Nosferrax, some of which may be the descendants of great noctissian families that devolved, through various means.They are also inspired by WHFB ghouls/feral vampires and the gorgers. The base idea is simply large hulking feral vampires.>elden ringNope, I just winged it, I'm not great at naming, so why complicate it. Vibe + a little tiny smudge of linguistic.
>>98284748trovarion did a squad of those. looked good except he needed some 3d printed shin guards and hip plates with the embossed scripture to make it work properly.
>>98284790I'm a goffs man so I can't do that I'm afraid
>>98284638Have lewd 40k 3d animations been made yet? Or did James scare off future 3d animators by putting a stop to most warhammer 40k fan animation makers?How and why did GW do that?
>>98284875Having sexy 3d models is a soft requirement to getting porn animations made
>>98284862m-maybe just a little blue? for good luck?
>>98284862Dis is a blue board, git.
>>98284908I had to break up with Trakk Rider Nob, cuz, like, he was a walking red flag ngl...
>>98281982What GSC characters do I convert my box of Sha'dar Hunters from Necromunda into?
>>98284827That's cool idea anon. Lot you can do with that, not many things have races that have degenerate familal off shots. >inspired by WHFB ghouls/feral vampires and the gorgers. The base idea is simply large hulking feral vampires.So kinda like the big bat like vampires from Witcher 3, since they are the lesser vampires of that universe
I'm new to this hobby and wanted to start with these guys, what am I in for?
>>98284963They're one of the more expensive armies while also being more detailed/difficult to paint. Don't let that stop you though, take your time and put in the effort and you'll have a great force to play with.
>>98282212>taking 5 c'tan is a perfectly cromulent list for necrons
>>98284961>Witcher 3I will believe you, haven't played it, nor have I read the books.Vampires are very cool
>>98284963They're one of the worst factions for a beginner player to pick. In gameplay they are a fragile, finesse army. Not good for learning the fundamentals because they are unforgiving. In painting, they are a horde army with lots of unique details on every miniature. Slow to paint and expensive to collect.If you happen to also like the big bugs I would suggest just starting with Tyranids since they're much easier to paint and much easier to play. If you have to go GSC, paint a single killteam and when you're done decide if you want to go all-in and collect the rest.
>>98284963>Lots of character units>lots of little details to paint>respawning models>kitbashing freedom>fun little dudes with repurposed tools and salvaged gear>don't expect to have any big fuckoff tanks or monsters, we have to borrow those from other armies.>a lack of a centerpiece model>a core army rule that is currently unusable if you dare attach leaders to your units because GW can't bother to do the most basic of testing when releasing their new editionI love my cult guys and I hope GW unfucks our core army rule with an errata soon.
>>98284996Damn anon you're just that based you have convergent evolution in the coolest and most interesting take on vampires Wticher 3 has, and warhammer wih the vargheists and vargulfs I guess. Whats the deal with the leeches that are symbotic with the pureblood and parastic for the degens?
>>98284963Fun dudes, but not particularly beginner friendly. If you're the type who likes jumping in at the deep end, metaphorically, you'll have a blast with the GSC.
>>98284985nigga said cromulent lmao
I require backpacks for my dudes. Where can I acquire a pile of good looking backpacks sized for IG infantry?
>>98284985>>98285064What the fuck man, I come here for brain rot and rage, not learning new words
>>98285075Cromulent is as much a word as Milhouse is a meme.
>>98281982Where do I write GW to make FAQs on this dumbass edition?Do I just post letters to Nottingham?
>>98285030The Noctissians/pureblood use them to control their "servants". Noctissians themselves are parasitic in the sense they need other civilizations/people to exist. They can shapeshift, which they use both as camouflage but also to manipulate (usually through beauty) the people they hide amongst them.Some leeches are directly produced by the Noctissians, others are artificially grown. The best purebloods can have complete and covert control over their leeched victims, finding the leech being the only give away, and even then a subtle control can leave the victim confused if the leech is removed, confusing the leech with some exotic parasite or what not.The leeches are symbiotic in that they are external life forms that serve and help the Noctissian, and vice versa.

>>98284996>find streamer channel>she talks about nerd stuff happily>join her discord and ask if she likes warhammer>gives one word responses like a chick on tinder disinterested>tells her mod to ban me from her discordWomen are all performative, simps are gay, discord sucks.
>>98284963>>98285015>lack of centerpieceFinal Day lets you take Tyranids monstersBrood Brothers lets you take Imperial Guard tanksThe rockgrinder is okay too
Are the plastic sister faces as bad as people say, or is it just the way gw paints faces? also how hard is it to paint them with whorish makeup and dick sucking lips?
>>98285115Correct on all accountsYour first error was looking for socialization on the Internet
>>98285117>Final Day and Brood BrothersIs it really a centerpiece if it's not even a datasheet that belongs to your army? >RockgrinderYeah it's okay, but it doesn't feel right calling it our big flashy model since it's basically just a brick.
>>98285121Yeah man, it’s fucking impossible. The purpose of these places is not to look sexually attractive.There are too many lines and contours so the faces end up looking grizzled and old, and the actual physiognomy of the faces is too masculine
>>98285115Sorry to heart. Gay DA playerI was a discord mod for a streamer once, never again.>streamer turns out to be a manipulative, exploitative, predatory piece of shit>I get the fuck out upon figuring it out>For the next 2 years through the echoes of the people I've helped I hear of all the other terrible dramas. Culminating with guy being backstabbed by the rest of the mod team he picked for how useful/performative they were when they finally decide to use the groomer shit they knew about from day 1.The humanity.
>>98285117Those still aren't GSC. There is no large GSC centerpiece anymore, RIP drill
>>98285121They are bad, especially since GW likes to have dedicated black & asian heads.Just stick to the helmets and the few bare heads that aren't retarded
>>98282122Gotta wait on them to dry before i do any more.>>98285141I'm so glad i picked up the drill, it's cool terrain even if it doesnt have rules anymore
>>98285121A bit of both. You CAN paint them to look very feminine if you know what you're doing, which 'Eavy Metal certainly fucking doesn't in this regard, but the sculpts are also just not the best out there for women's faces.
>>98285131>Your first error was looking for socialization on the InternetThis will sound crazy but discord 10 years ago you didn't immediately get banned by trannies for trying to discuss shit like star wars and warframe. This is entirely a 'new' (last 5-6 years) thing.And I actually used to make a lot of friends from /tg/ back in 2011 in roleplaying threads where 20 of us would all be in skype together while running a thread and invite people to join. What's funny is one guy was even a tranny and others were bisexual, but no one cared in 2011 because you didn't have the insane level of militant bullshit everywhere and could just roleplay on /tg/ normally.The "you can't make friends with fellow nerds because they're all performative faggots, freaks or simps trying to get pussy" is a totally post-2020 world.>>98285138Are you gay and a DA player or is this a Dark Angel (poem) joke?
>>98285141GSC is supposed to be either tyranidbait or infiltrators so BB and FD make a lot of sense.
>>98285218I am a DA player and I figured out much later I was a faggot, which still cracks me up
>>98285218join the 40kg discord then if you really want to chat
>>98283600My idea is for them to get the armies they already have done right before adding anything else.
>>98285244HELL NAH
>>98285284ok
>>98285137>>98285167>>98285212Bummer, I could just buy coom heads but I like the limitations that the base model provides. Might be too much of a limitation in this case though.
>>98285218I just don’t fuck with discord in general. I think that that shit is a gay waste of time and that you should be doing something more productiveI’m not trying to be an asshole or anything I just think that spending time on discord socializing with people that you don’t know is a fucked up way to spend your timeYou do you though anon
>>98285335NTA but nigga you're spending time on fucking 4chan, you really shouldn't be calling anything a waste of time lmao
>>98285342I’m at work bro it’s TuesdayAre you not?
>>98285348I am but that is not relevant to the discussion, you can be on discord at work as well. You're not any better than those trannies if you waste your time on 4chan no matter how much you might try to convince yourself otherwise
>>98285335>I just think that spending time on 4chan socializing with people that you don't know is a fucked up way to spend your timeI understand what you're saying but its still funny to think about
GSC bros I'm tired
>>98285350You don’t really get it and that’s coolI’m at workIf you’re at home role-playing with strangers when you have time to be doing other shit that’s a different thingI’m trapped bro I can’t do anything right now
Just agree that you're both losers for spending time on this board
>>98285367nah ur gay and im based get owned
>>98285367I am perfectly aware of that and not claiming otherwise, it's the other retard that's pretending he's somehow better for being here instead of discord or whatever the fuck
>>98285373i didnt mean to hurt your feelings anon playing 40krpgs in your free time with people youve never met is a good way to spend your time
Shrimplified, not shrimple.
So uh, what's the Tau detachment with the Fusion Blade?
what happened to the "newer" Ork Boyz? Nowhere to be seen on the website. the old Ork Boyz (the really old 90s ones remixed in the 00s with Nob sprue) are there but SOLD OUT
>>98285486Squatted. Like that new wight king that got removed with a newer wight king model less than a year later
>>98285496was that this guy who got replaced with the other one?he's pretty cool
>>98285505yep thats him, the one that replaced him is better
>>98285486I really don't like that so many of the new new ork boyz have a gun+sword. It seems a lot more samey
>>98285463Gone.
>>98282122Almost there.
>>98285335That's the neat partYou can't socialize on discord because you join the DnD discord and get banned for talking about Dnd because it's pride month and they're talking about trannies or something.
>>98285486its been removed for a while now. good riddance.
>>98285385I think you're confusing me for him, and the people I used to play rpgs with on /tg/ literally became friends with me on facebook back in 2011 when that was a thing. I think you must honestly be the kind of internet newfag I'm talking about when I say newfags ruined socializing on the internet because you used to be able to make actual friends in other states and countries here, not "faceless internet people".

Kill team tomb world-10 warriors+scarabs-canoptek kill team-10 deathwatch marines-kill team tomb world terrain250 dollars on GW, combined value of models about 400 bucks+those cards and shit that GW values at another 80 dollars of value.Kill team shadowhunt69 bucks for the insistents82 bucks for the murderwingUhhh the cards are there, 80 bucks I guessKit cost 145 bucks, models about 151 bucksAdvertised the nightbringer, did not include him in a big bundlemurderwing is a "bundle" because gw would normally charge 69 bucks for the raptors and 43 bucks for the jump pack lord, so they're 'bundled' for 82 instead of 112.Kill team exodites-3 exodites+dragondogs-15 shitty orks, nothing special about them-50 bucks in cards and books because there is only one kill teamIf it was to have KT tomb world's discount, it should only cost about 140 bucks, even if it included 6 exoditesBut based on the cost of KT shadowhunt and KT terror at devlan, it will likely be 191 bucks.GWiggers
>>98285622rude
>>98285604Really? You gonna post that infront of my sentinel?
>>98285604bro, your dreadmob?
>>98285642Man I hate those things.The Forge World Mega Dread shits on the Gorkanaut.
Do exodites have warmachines or do they use dinos for everything?
>>98285664>Do exodites have warmachinesYes, they use knights titans to herd the dinosaurs, humans made their own knight titans after them.
>>98285626Yeah releasing exodites in such a cucked box is bizarre. Either someone has it out for them or really they just have way too many orks they desperately need to get rid of
Tried to make a Benefictus kitbash with the Magus from the Broodcoven sprue. Used one of those metamorph heads with exposed brain and cut the arm of one of the familiars for the 3rd arm.
>>98285674Since Tomb World the KT boxes have had worse and worse deals, couple that with the eldar tax where the Corsairs were like 480 points for 220 dollars or something compared to 700 for 230 for red corsairs.GW is banking on exodites and corsairs being a meme people will overpay for.
>>98285657Every night I pray for a plastic Mega Dread to come out alongside all the new Ork stuff as the big centerpiece model like when Nids got the Norn Emissary last edition.
>>98285664BRIGHTSTALLIONS
>>98285679There's no eldar tax. You're delusional.
>>98285679>Corsairs were like 480 points for 220 dollars or something compared to 700 for 230 for red corsairs.Now count the amount of plastic
>>98285679They're kind of right. I want two boxes to build all six like a good goy but I'll wait until the orkless box comes out.
>>98285657goddamn, I’ve never seen a mega dread outside the store page, I never realized how big those fuckers were.
So what kind of psyker powers can Eldar warlocks use? Like are they flying around casting lightning bolts or what?
>>98285680Plastic Mega Dread, Plastic Squiggith, Plastic Grot Tanks and Mega Tank, Plastic Chinork alongside Zagstruk and Stormboys refresh Just a couple of these happening would make me nut
>>98285694it's not tied to plastic but beancounting, your belief that GW has some magnanimous and fair criteria is wrong.
>>98285684Image is also useful if you want appropriate exodite colour schemes.
>>98283600An army of big breasted, lactating cow girls.
>>98285713No, they have minor force fields and can throw little sparks of fire at people.
Me>500 points of Ynnari, painted standard Ynnari colours>1500 points of Drukhari, painted black and purple>500 points of harlequins painted like the masque of the midnight wind>200 points of corsairs, painted like the sunblitz brotherhoodAnd when I finish my exodite kitbashes, 200 points of knights painted like the sWIFT-hORN CLAN
>>98285729We already have Tau.
do i want this
>>98285754I'll be picking it up
>>98285674I think the exodites look cool dude
>>98284350This show went unbelievably hard.
>>98285754It's a neat model. I own 20 + 8 BSF dudes and the 'munda bounty hunter. I'm not even a furry.
does anyone have scans of the new chapter approved? thanks
>>98285743It ain't easy liking all the elf armies, but I guess someone's got to do it. I have 4 elf armies across three different Warhammer games myself
>>98285789I can blend them all together, like genestealers and tyranids.
>>98284719this?he looks mongolian now
>>98285664They still retain medical tech.
>>98285824was for >>98285526
>>98285713ye
>>98285824I fucking love that box of deathrattle boys
>>98285824What fucking mongol dressed like that?
>>98285856the furs and that style of head plume is absolutely eastern inspiredmore like conan styled undead than "mongol vampires"still like the old wight king better
>>98285874the new wight king on foot looks like old wight king on horse, same with the old wight king on foot and the new one on horsejames is silly
>>98285924>the new wight king on footNo such thing.
>>98285930??
>>98285121These are the better heads.There are worse ones in the kit.The 10th edition combat patrol had decent heads, no idea what they put in now.
I like Eldar Wraith constructs, Warp Spiders and now Exodites is there any fluff sense in them working together?
>>98285948Yes.
>>98285953Nice
>>98285933Breh...
>>98285674I think I figured out what happened. Originally the Red Terror was likely supposed to be a standalone 40k release for Tyranids coming out alongside the new Raveners Kill Team, and the Spectre Squad was supposed to be a versus box against the Exodites, but some executive at GW said "we need to get rid of these fucking beast snaggaz no one is buying, people will clamor for the Exodites right? Put them in a box with them and move the Guard Kill Team to another box, like.. a boss fight vs the Red Terror, move the Exodite box to after the new edition launch with Orks so we'll have more new Ork players to buy it."And thus it all got rearranged to clear snaggaz that weren't selling, probably all before the Ravener KT even hit shelves.
>>98285933he looks like a soijak
>>98285874>the furs and that style of head plume is absolutely eastern inspiredNot really, they're barbarian inspired.
>>98285957we mew in life, we pog in death
>>98285948>I like 3 units from the same codex is there any fluff reason they would fight alongside each otherGee anon real headscratcher
>>98281982Hey everyone it's once again time for the collage anchor posts.This month's theme was quick and nimble and/or Blanchitsu and was left to your own interpretation.I'll try to post an anchor every thread but if you can't spot me write"here is my june collage submission" and it'll be way easier to find you in the archive.Here is the link to next month's vote:https://strawpoll.com/YVyPva3lAgNHope to see a tribute or two to blanche
>>98285848I fucking love that painting. Warlocks are among the top coolest things in 40k.
>>98285991>>98282212Here is my June collage submission!
>>98285985I know barely anything about Eldar, Space Marines wouldn't have Victrix and Sword Bros in the same army even though they're both marine units so who's to say
I regret not buying the tomb world kt box
>>98286062What you can’t get it anymore or something?
>>98285991Last-minute elves to round out my Blades of Khaine kill team
>>98286088Even when painted well, Eldar minis still don't look like they belong in 40k.
>>98286062I wanted it as well and one of my FLGS has one but its one of those fucking places that sell at full price (no discount)
>>98286117Neither do orks that shit looks like some world of warcraft safe-goofy baby shit
>>98286117Why exactly do you think that is?
>>98286137Because the models lack sharp gestural dynamism which make them look graceful and dangerous at the same timeThey just look fucking stupid lol
>>98286126You are correct.Tyranids (Biological swarm), Necrons (Blunt and angular aliens), Tau (Rounded aliens), and Genestealers (Heavy industry mutants) are the Xenos that should remain.>>98286137Eldar, along with Orks and Dark Eldar contrast too much with the dark gothic sci-fi nature of the setting. At their core they are, essentially, too fantastical. I would also say Custodes don't belong, and Grey Knights are right on the boundary.
>>98286117Behold! A space marine player!
is this modeling for advantage, i was going to use clanrats as neophytes but they're obviously a lot shorterdo i need to put them on rocks or something? does height make a difference?
>>98286156Not in any real scenario.
>>98286146Even that picture feels like it lacks the 'grit' and 'bulk' that the setting should have. The designs aren't BAD, they just appear out of place. As though they should be in a more fantastical sci-fi or outright sci-fantasy setting.>>98286152Honestly, vanilla Space Marines are also a bit out of place at times.
>>98286137Because they aren't space marines or chaos, the only factions individuals with supreme intellect such as myself can accept
>>98286150>Pic rel>Not dark gothicDont use words you dont understand.
>>98286156You're a daydreaming failure, you won't do shit
>>98286163I dont think 40k characters require bulk necessarily they just have to look cool which eldar models frequently dontSome of them are cool though>>98286167I agree, dark eldar are fine generally
>>98286150Eldar and Orks are from the Barsoom era of Sci-Fantasy and represent the galaxy that came before the modern Gothic age quite well. They feel like something out of time because they are. If anything Necrons weirdly fail in this aspect feeling too much like men of iron despite being completely divorced from them.
>>98286167Commorragh is like the most Gothic thing in the galaxy. It's about as sci-fi moorcock as it gets.
>>98286172i already did a bunch of stormvermin as neophytes, but stormvermin are like twice as expensivestormvermin are also a bit taller than clanrats
>>98286167Your pictuure looks as though it were taken from golden age Star Wars EU content about a Sith Lord leading a band of alien pirates for 2-3 books before Luke Skywalker shows up, duels him, and dismantles the entire operation with help from his friends.
>>98286189Definitely notNta but that art is characteristically 40k imho
>>98286172I think I’m going to start listing all the daydreamers here because that sounds cool, so it’ll be nice to have a list of a bunch of good ideas that were never brought to tabletop. so far, there was the confederate IG guy a month back, and now this guy, so its>Confederate IG>Clanrats as Genestealer Neophytes
>>98286195Not much of a list if its 2 dudes my guy
>>98286163>>98286150>>98286117>>9828612640k is a setting of contrasts. You have space astronaut knights fighting xenomorphs fighting orks in ramshackle equipment fighting demons fighting terminators.If everything is "dark gothic" then nothing is.Its the contrast that makes 40k. You have relatively normal ish human Cadian soldiers fighting alongside walking reliquaries that is a Black Templar, alongside litteral baroque masterpieces that is a Custodes.You have murder elf clowns ripping out the guts of demonic space knights.You have Terminators (the movies not armor) robots fighting their polar opposites the purely organic Xenomorph Nids.Even among the Space Marines you have the more sci fi master chief ish vanill marines and the more medieval Black Templars or the viking esque Space Wolves.If you cant see that 40k aesthetic is about opposites clashing then you are lost.
>>98286205I think its more about appealing to several different aesthetics to sell more toys dude
>>98286205everything works except orks. Orks clash and don't match the setting at all these days, should be removed or made more serious like orruks.
>>98286199there’ll be more, there have been plenty in the past, but I can’t remember anyone aside from hashutfag, so those are just the most recent ones I can recall. there’s also the mussolini stompa guy which makes three.
>>98286192Anon, Dark Eldar look like the Yuuzhan Vong but with noses.
>>98286187did you end up kitbashing and converting them? if not, I think it being hard to know what gun they’re using is going to be a bigger issue imo. also post them, I like seeing rats.
>>98285991Forgot to paint the rim of the base. Oh well
>>98286219Idk what that is but im cool with dark eldar
>>98285991Whoops
>>98286221i just have a couple proof of concepts to see if i'm capable of doing iti'm just ripping off this guy's ratsweapons aren't a problem because i'm using the neophyte arms/weapons so they're the same
>>98286195Hashutfag
>>98286214There was Aztec warriors marines guy and Severan dominate guy and spider nids guy but I think all of them eventually started doing some models up before falling off and not finishing anything.
>>98286229that is a SMOOTH green transitions. How did you do it?
>>98286238Jeez that's a lot of effort anon, what inspired you to do it? Did you 3d print anything from both kits, I'd imagine buying all of that would've been expensive af
>>98286195BTFO'd subhuman faggot >>98286238
>>98286242>There was Aztec warriors marines guythat's just one of real /tg/'s (pre 2012) homebrew chapters the blood jaguars
>>98286248>>98286253er, these aren't mine, i'm copying this guys
>>98286219Dark Eldar in 40k predate the introduction of the Vong to star wars by almost 2 years. Longer if you count their Rogue Trader incarnation.
>>98286247Just built up the highlights using AK amethyst blue, medium olive green, grass green and frog green. Tried using green ink through an airbrush but kinda ruined it
>>98286253BTFO’d subhuman faggot >>98286258
>>98286256Oh yeah. I think I remember someone saying they were going to kitbash some Lizardmen with marines and not following through on it but stuff like that is a dime a dozen anyways.
>>98286248my local group is like 95% imperials and i wanted to branch out and i always wanted to do a mutant armyit's actually not that bad because the gsc boxes have a shitload of extra weapons for each box so if you mash a box of neophytes and a box of stormvermin you can get twenty guys fully kitted, the only limiting factor is the legs
>>98286256>that's just one of real /tg/'s (pre 2012) homebrew chaptersGod I've been here way too fucking long
>>98286283Ah that's fair, yeah I've got a shitload of sprues that are full of everything but the fucking legs. Was trying to find the stl for them if it existed, I believe there are a few sites that sell them individually but it isn't cheap. I've probably got enough shit there to make at least 15 flaccos / metas, just need the legs
>>98286156>is this modeling for advantageno, unless you're going to place them behind an incredibly low wall and argue they're out of sight, but since low walls practically don't exist, you'll be fine
>>98286238>>98286156I mean Cheesestealer cults is a common enough kitbash that you can find STL for the damn things now
>>98286219The thing is that was 1990s lore and the Vong are thematically more similar to Tyranids or Zerg, the current lore where the sith have haemonculi and make clone bodies to transfer their essence instead of just being dark jedi is a lot more Dark Eldar.
>>98286117Space Marine fags literally think that anythign that doesn't look like a spesh muhreen doesn't belong to 40k. Despite the fact that the same fucking person who designed your precious space marines, also designed the Eldar you want to kick out of the setting. Thank god retards like you don't hold any power over GW.
>>98285991>looks like its going to be heavyWhat should i do for it, dakkarig, abberants, kill rig, etc?
>>98286391I’ll likely do dakkarig, so don’t do it, or I’m going to be really upset.
>>98285991just in case. here is my june collage submissionhow many entries do you have so far?
11th ED lore says that the four Chaos Gods were active in the galaxy and being worshipped by alien races for millions of years before humanity appeared on Terra.Then how come Chaos has never been a problem until very recently?
>>98285955>>98285933this model is awesome. reminds me of the funny skeleton from undertale.
>>98286444Eh actually Nurgle was spawned by the Plague and Khorne by Adolf Hitler
>>98286444Eldar were keeping that stuff in check. They stopped keeping track of it after Slaanesh woke up and then humans kicked the hornet's nest, especially when the emperor brokered a deal with the four Gods for the fate of humanity at Molech and essentially entered the great game himself
>>98286463Time.WarpMeaningless.
>>98286444Essentially they werent so strong until the Emperor started moving, in a way the Emperor was baited into the current situation. Chaos is thriving now due to eternal war, they don't wanna win, they're farming.
>>98286269I'm not the one desperate to make more lolcows to circlejerk over now that the mutant killed himself
>>98286444what do you mean by never been a problem?
>>98286444Eldar
>>98286491Humanity colonized the whole galaxy without much contact with daemons or whatever.DAoT never had much knowledge about Chaos
>>98286444>11th ED lore says that the four Chaos Gods were active in the galaxy and being worshipped by alien races for millions of years before humanity appeared on Terra.>Then how come Chaos has never been a problem until very recently?Then clearly by your own admission they didn't just become a problem very recently.
>>98282502I only got the ork half as I have 2k of marines from the previous two edition starters, how is the Marine half?
Does Chaplain Grimaldus actually have the Chaplain keyword? Does he work with the Wrathful Procession stratagems?
>So why is a Kill Team release first important, you ask? Well, it’s because this is GW using the same low-risk playbook we saw with the Aeldari Corsairs: a tight 5-model release that lets them watch sell-through before throwing real weight behind a full faction expansion.Geedubs counting those little dragon dogs as part of a 5 man team.
>>98281982>Sisters have an entire detachment now for penitent units>Have four separate penitent units>Have multiple characters (Ministorum Priest, Dogmata) about penitent units>Character units cannot attach to any penitent unit??????????Let me attach a Dogmata to Repentia you fuckers, their entire purpose is to judge Repentia.
>>98282686Cool list anon, nice to see another niche guard player
Man it feels good to play my Death Guard into knights. Love being able to punch up and table the factions that have no business being in the game.
>>98286388This. Most of these retards think 40k is just some brutal sci-fi.

>>98286662Some people certainly want it to be like that, and for them they have Horus Heresy.
>>98286242>>98286276I'm still here, switched to Horus Heresy and got married instead lmao
>>98286587If they had such a long head start, they should have conquered the galaxy already
>>98286444>Then how come Chaos has never been a problem until very recently?Don't worry, GW is gonna retcon that part with some worse dogshit soon enough when they explain more about the DAoT.None of the old lore matters and never will matter and hasn't mattered since 8th.
>>98286686Heeeey, good on you man. Don't sweat us remembering dropped aspirations from half a lifetime ago. We all change and leave some dreams behind to pursue new ones. Hope all is going well with you.
>>98286466>when the emperor brokered a deal with the four Gods for the fate of humanity at MolechSlop writing.
>>98286686>switched to horus heresygay>got marrieddouble gay
>>98286689Time doesn't matter to them.They have already conquered the galaxy in the future.
>>98286694I still have the stuff around, but just sticking Lizardmen weapons on Space Marines felt a little too lazy. If I picked it up again, I'd prefer to use 3d prints of those chainswords and whatnot. But who knows, I'm prone to changing my mind frequently.>>98286700It's more my wheelhouse, but I'm one of those dudes who keeps wanting to put Eldar and Orks in it for extra flavour.
>>98286685I was gonna say no, but then I remembered that GW sucked the fun out of horus heresy, so yes.
>>98286117>>98286163>As though they should be in a more fantastical sci-fi or outright sci-fantasy setting.Warhammer 40,000... is sci-fantasy. Explicitly from the mouth of the creator. Always has been. >Honestly, vanilla Space Marines are also a bit out of place at times.Bro what the fuck do you even think ISN'T out of place if you think Space Marines and Eldar, two of the original factions that the entire rest of the settings aesthetics were built around to begin with, are out of place.You are obviously just a fucking newfag with no conception of what 40k is at all. YOU are the one out of place.
>>98286466>Eldar were keeping that stuff in check.Other way around. Chaos was manipulating the Eldar to keep the galaxy suitable for Mankind's ascension. Remember, Chaos transcends time and space. They knew how to make the Great Crusade and eventually the Heresy happen. The Eldar were the Gods' way of ensuring that the galaxy remained nice and stable, and when it was time for the Emperor to take over the Gods disposed of the Eldar almost immediately
>>98286751What happened to Eldar souls pre-Slaanesh? As in, were they just rolling around in the Warp, and then later got Slaaneshed?
>>98286765They mostly reincarnated to new bodies or retired to what would later be repurposed as world souls and infinity circuits once they got bored. Death was somewhat alien before the Fall.
>>98286665Based list fellow guard anon
>>98286765ntab, iirc before the fall eldars souls sort of disolved into the warp and were then reborn.
>>98286765Yes, Eldar souls were essentially able to stay in the Warp and choose to either revive themselves or dissipate andallow themselves to be reincarnated. Slaanesh claimed them to ensure the Eldar would have neither option, and thus be rendered extinct (relatively) ahortly after, killing off one of the Imperium's biggest threats forever.
>>98286444Eldar controlled warp before their fall. And because some ape sell xirs kind on Molech
>>98286444Because demons are 4th wall breaking entities and flock to the period the story is focusing on.
>>98286444>were active in the galaxy and being worshipped by alien races for millions of years before humanity appeared on Terra.GW put that oht there because people had started pointing out that the Horus Heresy is the main reason Chaos is so powerful and prevalent in 40k. It's another retcon for the sake of whitewashing the Imperium's image by justifying their hatred of xenos.
>>98286751The End And The Death really was the single biggest humiliation of the Eldar, wasn't it?
>>98286689Wym orks and tyranids and shit still existed and theyre both basically unkillable infestations
>>98286751Why would chaos choose to starve themselves for 65 million years only to get 10,000 years of feeding before killing the universe?
>>98286751>>98286897This is all headcanon.
>>98285486They’ve got them at the LGs down the street, want me to grab some for ya
>>98286751This is so fucking retarded, I hate it
>>98286907Because the Emperor is (or rather was) the Dark King, who will bring about the eternal dominion of Chaos over all reality.
>>98286933Are we just making shit up what is this
>>98286933LOLLMAO even
Like dozen of the last 20 posts are just fucking "NU LORE IGNORE" Black Library bullshit. Learn to start replying that way, guys. Who gives a fuck what some retarded post-2000s hire says about the Horus Heresy when it's all been declared non-canon by the creator of 40k.
Lost my first game of 11th. New marine codex when?
>>98286933So they played a 65 million year long game and lost? Cuck Gods of chaos, lol
>>98286967Was it even remotely fun? And what's the first edition you ever played?
>>98286972Yeah it was fun11th edition
>>98286928no, burn it like the nazis burnt jewish literature in the 1930s. all evidence the nu-boyz ever existed must be erased.
>>98286972It was okay. Took too long. First 40k edition was black reach but I've never been a big player.Played recon into purge, won 45-44 on primary but got smoked in secondaries. Drew a bunch of midboard stuff when I'd pushed to the 4 corners.
>>98286939It's from the final HH book.The Emperor was prophecized to become the Fifth and srrongest Chaos God at the end of the Horus Heresy, in which he'd be forcesd to undergo apotheosis.He defied this prophecy when he refused to do so, causing it to change so that 'The Despoiler' would bring about the Dark King's awakening.
>>98286971This is all according to Tzeench’s keikakku
>>98287008Thats stupid and it doesnt count
>>98287008>causing it to change so that 'The Despoiler' would bring about the Dark King's awakening.you should read the book rather than parroting reddit theories from people who haven't read the book
I dont even need to read the books bro I know what 40k is about
>>98287070They aren't even talking about 40k books anyways, they're talking about 30k books. Irrelevant spin-off.
>>98286971Chaos won tbe>>98287075>Irrelevant spin-offGuess who the main characters of 40k are, anon.
>>98286444It worksChaos is the great filter which fucks over every civilization, then self destructs and then is empowered by another Civ. Many other galactic empires just like Humans existed during 60 million since War in Heaven and Eldar domination. Eventually even Eldar succumbed, even though it took faaaar longer for them to fail
>>98287085>main charactersThere aren't any you delusional retard, it's a galactic-wide war setting that constantly introduces new characters.
>>98287070Black Library novels are almost entirely divorsed from what 40k is anyways. 9 out of 10 times they are not worth reading as they are just excuses for the fanfiction.net tier authors to push their fanboyism, retarded headcanon, fetishes or in the case of horus heresy novels their unresolved daddy issues.Those books are fucking GARBAGE and anyone tho posts "lore" from them as opposed from actual codexes is a fucking retard.
>>98287085They’re aren’t any
Any good Adeptus Mechanicus or Iron Hands novels?
>anons who physically cannot read a book mad at others for reading againMany such cases.
>>98287094Based and correct.
>>98287104Kek'd at the image, but if you're referring to the guys shitting on BL it's the opposite. It's people who can read well and have read actually good books and cannot stomach the low tier fanfiction garbage put out by those hacks.
>>98287094I’m cool with black library novels as long as they align with my opinion
>>98287110>no bro i read all the time bro i promise bro
>>98287115I read 17th and 18 century literature as part of my academic job, anon. It's not even optional for me.
>>98287093>>98287101>They’re aren’t any
>>98287119>doesn't appear in over 95% of 40k novels, short stories, comics, codexes, or video games>main characterLmao
Really someone can stomach BL? And all the changes?
>>98287094I agree. Nothing matters in most of those books. Like what the fuck are perpetuals? Its such an OC Donut Steel shit that is sooo important in Horus Heresy, but comes 40k nobody even talks about them. Despite them being immortals with hundreds of thousands of years of experience, they somehow all died off just in time for the main plot of the setting.
>>98287094>>98287104Fuck black library, wouldn't wipe my fucking ass with this trash.
>>98287126Still more popular than every xenos character combined.
>>98287137>popularity contests>relevant to grim warfareSo you're a fag or a woman?
I hope custodes get some new terminators. I need sole new material to work with. Though the HH terminatorsnkijdansuckdick.
>>98287138Worse, he is a tourist.
>>98287142i don't want any fingers up my ass
>>98287126>Appears in the covers of the rulebook, is everywhere in the codex of the most famous faction, trailers of the main tabletop game, and his faction is the poster boy and the main characters of the most succesful and well known vidyaYeah, he's him.
>>98287144TRVKE!
>>98287117>I swear bro
>>98287138>grim warfareThe focus of the lore is on the Imperium, and Guilliman is at its head.Without the lore, all you're doing is rolling dice and shuffling plastic models around.It's fine to not be happy about your situation, but denying it just makes you look foolish. Xenos are NPCs, they're ot even needed any more and HH proved that. 40k is about Space Marines fighting Daemons and Chaos.
>>98287102The Forge of Mars trilogy is great and extremely AdMech-focused. They also get a lot of space in Titanicus, the best book BL ever released.
>>98287148ESLBut more importantly, I'm holding my rulebook right here, the cover is a generic Terminator.>everywhere in the codex of the most famous factionThey've had like 14+ codexes over the years and he barely appears in most of them.>trailers of the main tabletop gameDidn't even show up in the Armageddon box one. >his faction is the poster boysAnd they were the poster boys without him for like 25 years, he's riding on their coattails, not the other way around.>and the main characters of the most succesful and well known vidyaArguably that was Dawn of War 1, but even if we go with Space Marine the face of that game was Titus, no one cares about Guilliman
>>98287132Those books largely just exist to pander to the retarded manchildren that have absolutely no standards when it comes to literature, and they are generally written by people of the same caliber. Of course there is the occasional decent BL novel but like I said, 9 out of 10 cases, they are not worth their weight in paper let alone the literary content in them.
What colour shall I paint my Scrungaloids?I am doing a 1st-4th edition repair army separately but I want to do a Kill Team of these absolute degenerate freaks
>>98287185They're too lanky, they need to be a little shorter and thiccer
>>98287156Nah I like xenos it makes the setting more interestingIf it was just imperium vs chaos it would be fucking boring and gay
>>98287178Nigga acting like he has a refined intellectual palette while playing toy soldiers lmfao
>>98287195Congratulations on being part of the minority, do be sure to complain louder when you're pushed further aside. I'm sure GW will listen eventually.
>>98287008Dan Abnett being control of anything beyond basic IG and inquisition books was a mistake.
>>98287211Niggas just be sayin shit lmao
>>98287211NTA but the launch set for the edition was Imperium vs XenosAnd last edition it was Imperium vs XenosAnd the edition before that it was Imperium vs XenosSeems like Chaos are the irrelevant ones here, bud
Also the Dawn of War IV game about to come out with massive hype behind it is 2 Imperium and 2 Xenos factions.And Total War 40k is launching with, you guessed it, 2 Imperium and 2 Xenos factions.Chaos just aren't as relevant as insecure Chaosfags desperately need everyone to believe.
>>98287224Xenos are in the launch box because that's the best and often only way to get people involved in xenos armies; if they're shoved into a box with an Imperial faction.Just look at that shitty exodite box, nobody's going to buy that garbage.
>>98287239Me if I was a big retarded idiot
>>98287243>Oh yeah I'm certainly jumping at the chance to buy new shitty out of place models for my dumpster-tier army alongside two boxes of the units even Ork players hateMoron.
>>98287239This argument would work if it was just GW shoving old Xenos models in the box, but it completely falls apart when they had to invest huge amounts of money producing tons of brand new Xenos releases for every one of these editions, so no, you're a retard.
>>98287238Chaosfags will tell you it's because Chaos is SO popular that they will be the first DLC because players will gladly pay extra for them
>>98287254and naturally the fact that all the other xenos factions are dlc doesn't count or mean anything
>>98287248me if I was a suckslave for a black guy
Someone make a new thread so I can post my submission before the clock strikes midnight
ALSO main 40k makes way more money than Horus Heresy does, despite Horus Heresy having arguably better quality models and better quality rules. So what's it missing that 40k has over it?Xenos.
>>98287238https://files.catbox.moe/87lu6s.pngretard>inb4 t-tournament statsnope!
>>98287278What is this even trying to prove? LMFAONecrons are more popular than the ENTIRE CHAOS SPACE MARINES covering 5 different LegionsTyranids and Tau are more popular than ANY of the Cult Legions
>>98287287you're actually retarded
>>98287290Not an argument bro you BTFO yourself, fucking kek
>>98287294I'm sorry you can't read statsUnsurprising for somebody who thinks the secondmost popular faction in the game isn't actually popular
>>98287287you're supposed to add up all the chaos factions into one number that proves my point. don't add up the xenos or imperium
>>98287299Provide these stats you think he can't read. Because Necrons have been a top 4 faction since 9th for playrates.
>>98287287>CSM hasn't been in a starter for 12 years>still more popular than the 10th and 11th starters>>98287300(you) tried
>>98287299Chaos 56,248Xenos 61,864Lmfao get fucked
>>98287312(you) lost >>98287306
>>98287299>who thinks the secondmost popular faction in the game isn't actually popularActually what he said was that it's not as popular as chaosfags insist it is, which you have failed to disprove
>>98287315That's literally irrelevant to the raw numbers, cope as hard as you want, they haven't been in a starter because GW knows people want new Xenos more, and these are also before factoring in that no one has had time to build and paint a new army of Orks yet.
40k wouldnt be 40k without all its factionsThats part of why it is what it is today is the combination of all these things that are very different aesthetically
>>98287319>literally irrelevantsubhuman retard, unsurprising
>>98287322Your seethe is delicious, I can't believe you posted that thinking it proved anything in your favor when ONE xenos faction BTFO the entire Chaos one for numbers and the rest combined easily beat out the rest of the Chaos combined, holy fuck
>>98287326>u-umadthe only one seething here is (you) thoughbeit
>>98287330Bro at no point did I seethe, I've been utterly crushing you since these >>98287224 >>98287238 two posts and you've been teeth-gnashing level seething in return the entire time, kek. You were so blind with rage you posted that screencap without checking the numbers first and realizing it proved me right and you wrong.
>>98287334>I-I'm totally not mad you've been SOOOO mad>I did have breakfast this morning though?(you) lost
>>98287339Now type it without shaking and crying lmfao
>>98287343there's that illiterate projection yet again
Why cant we all get along 40kbros…
>>98287346Because tears of Chaosfag butthurt are for some reason the most delicious next to Eldar
>>98287351Cringe
>>98287346Because xenosfags seethe when you remind them they're of tertiary importance and popularity
>>98287306>posts data>asks us to read it by vibestau have never been in a starter set. doesn't that mean they're even more popular than CSM based on this bullshit modifier you created?
>>98287353Also cringe
It's always funny to see the Xenos v Chaos shit flinging when the real irrelevant superfaction is non-Space Marine Imperium.
>>98287353Imagine trying to say this after being proven wrong with hard numbers within one flick of the scroll wheel, holy shit you are SEETHING seething
>>98287358>read it by vibesnot what was stated>>98287361you can keep trying but you lost 25 minutes ago bud
>dodges the questioni accept your concession. tau confirmed for second most popular faction
>>98287365No matter how much you try to convince everyone by just spamming "you lost" it doesn't become true. You literally fucking raped yourself posting that chart, the numbers are right here >>98287312 and it still doesn't address the fact that GW obviously ran the math and decided Xenos models in launch boxes make more than Chaos, and both of the biggest most anticipated 40k video games had FOUR faction slots available at launch and decided to include 2 Imperium and 2 Xenos. They could have even done 1 Xenos and 1 Chaos but they just literally did not give a shit about you, kek. You've been raped into oblivion.
>>98287370>schizophrenic babbleohhh the illiterate thirdie is SEETHING seething
>>98287351>>98287353with this level of faggotry, both of you niggas need to post models ASAP
>>98287373>now he's copycatting because he lost so bad he can't do anything but try to use my own wordsAbsolute admission of being totally dominated, lmfao
>>98287374Watch they both play IG or something lmaoOr more likely dont play at all
>>98287370>and both of the biggest most anticipated 40k video gamesneither of them will be a drop in the bucket compared to space marine 2 and everybody loved the chaos aspects of that over the nid filler intro missions
>>98287379>Watch they both play IG or something lmaoThat would be the funniest end to this whole thingI actually play Death Korps of Krieg...I also play Death Korps of Krieg
Not being able to ignore retarded taunts and taking them excessively seriously is a sign of autism btw
>>98287389>saying this like every single person here isn't severely autistic
>>98287389We know Chaos players are the most autistic, dude, they admit it themselves with pride when talking about why they like Iron Warriors
>Canoness and dialogus sold out online with no expected restockWe getting new minis for them?
>>98287403They're both in stock in the US store. I don't know if that means anything though. Imagine if they make a new cannoness model without the black woman showcase paint job. The shitposting opportunity would be incredible.
>>98287403Only time will tell friend
>>98287403There are like 4 unique canoness models so I doubt its a new canoness
