>>98293911There's already a thread you gay little monkey
>>98293919Let me quess, retarded OP forgot the title so it's not searchable with ctrl+f /40kg/?
Yeah nah that other thread is not 40kg LOL
Damn 40kg dead as hell rnWorking on my nemesis claw kill teamBeen on hiatus for a while but I saw a prepainted wrecka krew and hunter clade deal at my LGS for like $115 and it got me back into it
Is there a book that talks about this?
Has anyone used the Ballistus in 11th? Any opinions on how it performs?So far in my games, I find the new terrain layouts are far too prohibitive on its firing angles to get any real use out of it. 8" movement on those firing lanes just isn't cutting it, and if you move up too much you're just going to get caught out in melee.Might have to swap it out for a Brutalis, or a second Redemptor. Having tanky things in the centre of the board with melee capability seems to work out so much better.
>>98294090Is there lore or theory that even explains wtf this pic is talking about
>>98294409It's where the shard of the void dragon is being imprisoned, and it's not like GW will expand the Cult of the Dragon even after the 500 worlds.https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Noctis_Labyrinth
>>98294458Gonna catch shit for this but personally I think this is fine. Better to hint at this stuff or merely present the possibility than explain it and disappoint people.
>>98294458Did anything come from when they revealed the model for him?
Is single Dominatus deck enough to run a campaign for up to 4 players? The booklet included is very unclear about that.
>>98293911When will we get Warhammer 50K??
>>98293911I'm buying this fist
>>98294476Like Horus Heresy books ha
>>98294653Billions sold btw.
>>98294659Depressing
>>98294662For you.
>>98293922You guessed wrong
>>98294672I accept your concession.
>>98294593Where did you find that video of GW and the 40k fanbase?
Eldar deserve to lose all the time because their fanbase is annoying
>>98294664Well yeah, why else would I post it.
It's been 2.5 years I feel like I'm never gonna buy one of theseGW needs to stop jacking up the price on 'lord' characters. Just release them all part of a larger retinue, like how it's smarter to buy the Murderwing kill team since you get raptors+Lord for 82 bucks than buying a single lord for 44 bucks.
>>98294409MACHINE GOD is actually VOID DRAGON
>>98293922you know it baby
>>98294707Eldar deserve to lose all the time because they have the best models
Well, I guess I know the next paint scheme for my Space Marines.
Apparently, the Eldar, particularly the guys from Biel-Tan believe that Khaine is the son of Khorne and Slaanesh.How does that work? The timeline makes no sense.
>>98294826Sounds like a bunch of cope from the scrubs who lost their entire craftworld to a kill team.
>>98294826Time runs a bit differently in the warp
>>98294852Could have been worse. I'd hate to be the losers who lost to a single Tyranid. Oh wait, that's Eldar too, my bad.
>>98294707Just like space marines.
>>98294826Time in the warp is nonlinear. The Eldar created slaanesh but now that they have she has always existed since the dawn of time.
>>98294826Apparently the humans believe the emperor is a genestealer.
>>98294860To be fair that was fukken radical
>>98294871But who was the top and who was the bottom? Who got preggers with Khaine?
>>98293911https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWzgrbtuHcg
>>98294593What an unfortunate situation
Tyranids have the same issue that all marine armies have, they all look samey.
>>98294090The closest you get is the short story that meme is based off of from the 3rd edition Necron codex.
GOATed table
>>98295116Leviathan did this.
>>98294826It's just some holy trinity type shit, don't overthink it
>>98294826Gav is a faggot.
>>98295116all factions look samey because the entire point of a faction is to have a unified aesthetic, retard
>>98295276sounds boring. Factions could stand to learn more from genestealer cults and csm.
>>98294826how does this work if the knife ears had khaine in their pantheon before their endless gooning spawned slaanesh?
>>98295276>you don’t understand, this is a veteran glup in shitto armor, not a vanguard glup in shitto armor!!!!!!If you can’t incorporate common design cues without making everything look samey, you have a skill issue.
>>98295116>these 2 factions totally have a similar issue with sameness bro, trust menot fooling anyone marinenigger
I was able to get 2 stormboyz for 12 bucks in late 2024. I deeply regret this purchase, since no one is ever selling stormboyz for so cheap so I can't complete the set.
Has anyone made PDF scans of the 11th Edition Codex and that Lore Book for Operation Armageddon from the Box yet?
>>98295116Maybe you're just blind.
>>98294826>How does that work?Eldar speak in metaphors to the point they prefer mythology to objective recorded history.It just means that khaine embodies elements found in both khorne and slaanesh.
>>98294826khaine is a chaos god....
>>98295449>11th Edition CodexDegenerate AND idiot - like a clockwork.
>>98295449whoever is thr fag pushing this "uwu cutie skitty femboy uwu" dogshit needs to be fired into the sun immediately if not sooner.
>>98295480all gods are chaos gods
>>98295290Someone has to be vanilla
>>98294826I always thought it was more likely that Khorne was Khaine’s son actually.
>>98295333The problem with eldar is that they're 4 (now 5) factions in a single codex.
So are all aspect shrines of a given aspect on a craftworld the same kind of shrine?E.g. a craftworld might have 2 different howling banshee shrines. Would it be more typical for both of them to be Ebon Witch shrines, or to have one Ebon Witch shrine and one Crimson Scream shrine?
>>98295519>asspect warriors now have chapters too for their aspectsGW no this is too fragmented
>>98295519each shrine is unique even if some are more similar than others
Eldar aspect hosts or whatever they’re called all the same too when you don’t paint them differently too.
>>98295509Khorne is actually Khaine's reverse, Cegorach is Tzeentch's reverse, Isha is Nurgle's reverse, this is why these gods were safeguarded from Slaanesh while the eldar gods without a chaos reverse were not, Ynnead is Slaanesh's reverse and devourer if she becomes stronger than xim
>>98295519If you want yes, but normally no.
>>98295537>nowAlways has, because you can paint them any way you want
>>98295461Gav Thorpe, the eldar guy at gw, confirmed it to be true, though.
>>98295581But that's saying what I was saying.
>>98295555NOIf you make chapters for aspect warriors then why not "baharroth's faggots", an entire army in baharrothi colours lead by primarch baharroth of the swooping hawks legion?Stop imperiumizing eldar.
>>98294826>How does that work?It's Gav specifically trying to downplay the Eldar pantheon aince logically they would have dominated the Warp for most of the 60 million years after the War In Heaven.It also makes no sense because Khaine is the brother of Asuryan, meaning Asuryan would ALSO be the son of Khorne and Slaanesh which is absurd.
>>98295591But it's more like Khorne and Slaanesh somehow mixed to create Khaine, hence why Slaanesh's influence can turn Khaine fem or enby.
>>98295605Asuryan would be the son of Khorne and Tzeentch. So they would be half-brothers.
>>98295598Aspect warriors having different colors for different shrines has always been a thing, but at the lead a shrine is the exarch, not the phoenix lord.
>>98295617You're applying causality to chaos, that's not how it works, "metaphysically speaking".
>>98294826How can Khorne and Slaanesh make babies? They barely even exist. The chaos "gods" are just concepts, we can't even fathom them because they have no physical form or presence in the materium OR the immaterium.
>>98294826>The timeline makes no sense.How is it 2026 and brainlets are still getting filtered by the Warp being non-linear time.
>>98295483It's actually a girl (female) which makes it slightly better
>>98295665Its a make-believe story anon40k is sci fi-fantasy its literally all made up lol
Let Chaos Idols take this thread!
I like orks :D
>buy my second set of minis>overprime them to shit>cry
>>98295598>If you make chapters for aspect warriors then why not "baharroth's faggots", an entire army in baharrothi colours lead by primarch baharroth of the swooping hawks legion?That's actually pretty cool. Now bend over.
>>98295667>Warp being non-linear time.That would break the story.What would stop the Chaos Gods from killing the Emperor as a baby?
>>98295698>start [thing]>not a pro at [thing]>sadYou'll be fine. Now you'll learn how to strip minis.
>>98295598dumb tranime poster
>>98294031I’m not sure if everyone else is in the same boat, but I haven’t been able to prime shit because most days are 70% humidity at their lowest. luckily, it turned 57% today which is projected to be the lowest it’ll get for the next couple weeks, so I took the chance to quickly prime some models I wouldn’t feel bad about ruining with a bad prime job. going to paint these guys as deathskull diggas.
>>98295698Chuck them in some metho or isopropyl for around 20 then scrub the shit out of them, repeat steps until happy.When proming use passing and flicking motions so you don't hold over the minute for too long to clog up detail, and also shake the absolute shit of of the can
>>98295698>overprimeIs this really a thing? I'm pretty heavy on the primer and never seen any problems. Also you can't really strip primer, I've dunked primed minis in 99% IPO for weeks and that shit stays on. Just reprime them.
>>98295703Baby emps was already too based to be killed
>>98295703how nu R U¿
>>98295706>>98295720>>98295712Thanks I'll try that. This is the worst one.
>>98295720Did you do anything after you left them to soak? Most of the time people use dental tools and tooth brushes to clean out the softened paint after they've been soaked.
>>98295720
>>98295707all elfdar are anime
>>98295736Are there really people out there who clip their nails and then dont file them afterwards?

>>98295703The same thing that stops them from killing him now? They can't just appear in material reality and do shit retard. They can't just instantly summon daemons anywhere. How much of a fucking lorelet can you be?
>>98295703I think you just broke 40k anon. You should write to GW and tell them their setting is trash and makes no sense.
>>98295749sorry we don't all play Dark Angels or Emperor's children or eldar.
>>98295744This. Eldars are heavily inspired by anime, it's well documented.>mfw will never have a 90s anime about eldarswhy live
>>98295749yes? Most people? Not everyone is a worshiper of slaanesh anon.
stop raising prices, cuntsIf the exodite box isn't 140 bucks or less, no buy.
>>98295728The fuck you do? That fuckers melted. Did you use acetone or something
>>98295749>>98295759As a DA player I don't file my nails, yet.
>>98295749Men.
>>98295765Walking around with sharp ass ugly looking nails
>>98294826A lot of things about the Eldar start to make sense when you realize they're a joke faction meant to weed out assholes who you shouldn't play against or take seriously. GW intentionally makes their lore shit but their rules good to flag Eldar players as WAACfags.
>>98295771Nah I file my shit but I also play guitar so I kinda have to
WAACchads live rent free in the heads of losers everywhere
>>98295769It's not melted per se, there's just a heavy layer of primer I've tried to scrape off while it settled. So it has all this microtexturing.
>>98295773Some people just like elves anon
>>98295778post greytide
>>98295776Fair enough
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98295766Fuck FOMO.Fuck price increase.Fuck shrinkflaction.Fuck tactical rocks.Fuck the lack of options.Fuck that they made kitbashing less worth the time & effort.
>>98295780Then they should play Fantasy or AoS.
>>98295797>Fuck that they made kitbashing less worth the time & effort.they didn't, they just filtered out hobbylets
>>98295728kek did you put plastic glue on him or something
>>98295800I mean we have elf factions in 40k so there you go
>>98295778>u mad lolYou need to be 18 to post here.Annoying people does not trump intelligent argumentation.
>>98295805post kitbashed minis.
>>98295728Gotta prime them from a distance anon if you do it right up close itll do shit like this
>>98295805>t. hobbylet headswapper
>>98295805I kitbashed exodites but I also want the new onesBut not at the retard fomo box prices they've been selling shit for recently.
So I've decided to paint up my Armageddon Marines as Black Templars. Few questions>1) What should I do with the Librarian? I have like 2k points of Salamanders so I guess I could use him for that. >2) If I want to take it to 1k points the Black Templars Combat Patrol looks pretty good for it, taking out the Librarian but throwing in the Emperor's Champ, Sword Brethren, and Crusader Squad it puts it at 965 points according to NewRecruit, and I have the Bladeguard Vets to add later on (Or swap the Eradicators for). Any other must-haves for them?>What detachment's good for them at 1K? Companions of Vehemence seems like the best fit for a melee-focused army plus it gives Purge as an Force Disposition option.
>>98295809
>>98295807Yeah anon, and their lore sucks. Hence why people who are actually fans of elves should go play a different game if they're after good elf lore.
>>98295829Shit bro to each their own
>>98295816>I kitbashed exoditesnot that anon but may I see them?
>>98295817>but I also want the new oneswhy? they look hideous. the dinos at least
>>98295835Cuz they're cool
>>98295834meant for >>98295817
>>98295835I think they look cool
Reading old White Dwarves from when the game was good is so blackpilling on modern editions, the grogs were right holy shit.>you want an alternate Guard Doctrine where your Rough Riders can ride on dinosaurs with extra armour and attack for a few more points? Here's official rules for that>you want a force with more Abhumans, Beastmen, penitent Mutants? Here's official rules for that>want a scenario where you have to rescue an Imperial Officer after his convoy got bombed by an Ork Fighta-Bomba that's making attack runs during the whole battle? Here's the official rules for that>want to make your own custom Space Marine Chapter with different bonuses and drawbacks? Here's the Codex with rules for that and also a bunch of index astartes articles to expand on it with more options>next month Tyranids get a new codex where every datasheet has 10-20 biomorph options>here's rules for a campaign where you capture territory for bonuses on a map and you can link your Battlefleet Gothic space battles with the ground battles like suchIt was all there... we had it all... what happened??? I'm barely even scratching the surface. Holy shit it's like every single month, month after month, a new White Dwarf released with more flavor and customizability rules for 40k than the entire 10th edition.
>>98295728Please tell me you didn't buy Rustoleum Paint + Primer, because that really looks like you sprayed on the Paint+Primer instead of just Primer.
>>98295847Just ask ChatGPT to generate customizablity rules for you anon
>>98295834He is unpainted but defending his world from a Dark Eldar incursion seeking to kidnap exodites and use their delicious souls for currency because Dark Eldar do that. There are also dead necron bits and dead space wolf bits.
>>98295847>what happened???Chapterhouse.
>>98295773Eldar have amazing lore and shitty stories. They're different things.
>>982958472 american faggots were too blantant in their recasts and after losing they went no model no rules
>>98295861Nah it's a 3rd party acetone spraycan. The shop lady said it was good for plastic but maybe it isn't. On the other hand, that one got hit the worst. This one's fine, right?
>>98295847>the grogs were rightAmen. Modern 40k is a farce.>what happened?Hobbying & wargaming is for nerds.Normalfags don't care for that. Today most 40k fans think assembling & painting is a chore, they build their armies like a combo deck of MTG cards and think you're cringe and weird for writing about /yourdudes/.We are a boardgame wearing the dead skin of a wargaming hobby.We used to be adjacent to historicals and trainfags, now we are adjacent to MTG and video games.
>>98294653Expanding the Horus Heresy destroyed 40k lore as it's all about primarchs 24/7.
>>98295866>>98295869We should have beheaded those faggot parasites for the damage they did to the hobby inshallah
>>98295903Primarchs are cool
>>98295897>think you're cringe and weird for writing about /yourdudes/.alright but this is weird.
>>98295867>Made by the frog wizards to defeat the Necrons (Failed to do so)>Held the galaxy for sixty million years because the Chaos Gods let them (during this time nothing important actually happened, and the Eldar were unable to destroy the Orks or sleeping Necrons)>Instantly ate shit the moment the Chaos Gods decided to change the status quo>Now live on isolated floating moons where all they do is mope about how awful life is for them after they murderfucked a Chaos God into awakening>Their strongest warriors are gay Power Ranger knockoffs who mostly exist to be killed and revived dramatically>Have literally never won a major victory in the history of 40k>Their most recognized character is the one known for riding Guilliman's dick in memesReally good 'lore', anon.
>>98295910No, it is literally the original point of the game and you are a fucking worthless newfag piece of slime
>>98295888That one is rather bad too. Thankfully it hasn't blotted out all the detail like the first one, but you've got paint particles drying before they've reached the model, or moisture interfering with the paint drying on the model. Either case is creating all those tiny little bumps all over your model. Both indicate issues with the environment you're spraying in, most likely temperature and/or humidity.You want a dry day that isn't too hot to spray.
>>98295913Too long bro Im not reading all that shitEldar are aight
>>98295918Nta but thats retarded lol
>>98295922Yeah, we can tell you don't read since you're an Eldar fan.
>>98295910This better be bait, anon. The entire 40k universe came from the same kind of nerds.
>>98295932No it came from a bunch of retards who stole from superior ips.
>>98295905>>98295847Do we really blame Chapterhouse for this? I really don’t think it warranted GW going scorched earth.
>>98295931No need to get heated about it man its just make-believe space elvesTaking this shit a little too serious
>>98295905>we should punish some 3rd party guys because GW was butthurt about it and clamped down on customization and extra rules for extra shekels.Nigga what?
>>98295888maybe yu should just use blac paint
>>98295913>>Their strongest warriors are gay Power Ranger knockoffs who mostly exist to be killed and revived dramaticallyAlso not all of them have models.>Now live on isolated floating moons where all they do is mope about how awful life is for them after they murderfucked a Chaos God into awakeningYou forgot ynnari, harlequins, corsairs and exodites
>>98295939Who?
>>98295939many such cases!
>>98295910So let’s set aside the fact that this bait from a retard who doesn’t realize ironic shitposting is still shitposting. Isn’t it kinda painful that tons of people actually think like this retard but genuinely instead of pretending? How did this happen?
>>98295936Your lack of an argument just proves the point further. Eldar don't have good lore.
anon creating ANOTHER boogeymanjust can't live without decalfag in his head
>>98295944this guy >>98295944
>>98295950Theres no argument to be had if you dont like them thats fine lol
>>98295943>YnnariJoke subfaction>HarlequinLiteral joke subfaction>Corsairs Literal gay pirates>Exodites Cannon fodder.
>>98295919That sucks. I was in a rush to prime them so that I could start painting tomorrow. Thanks for the advice, I'll get some isopropyl alcohol.
>>98295961>Literal joke subfactionHarlequins have won all their fights though.
>>98295913the eldar won the war in heaventhe gods "letting" the eldar rule is pure fanfictionthe gods didn't decide to change the status quo, the eldar did, in their hubris>power levels>porn memessays more about you than anything else
Thoughts on Whorehammer? What would happen if I showed up to the gameshop with these?
>>98295935>>982959373rd party models obviously intended for someone elses IP with wink nudge names like GRIMDARK ALIEN HIVE ;) is indian streetshitter scam artist behaviour to begin with, they deserved to get sued, GW might be scumbags sometimes but that doesnt mean the thirdies arent just as scummy ripping off their shit.
>>98295913Eldrad is definitely still more recognized than Yvraine because he shows up in both Horus Heresy and Emperor TTS and she does not
>>98295991Its funny when it happens go GW so I’ll allow it
>>98295981The Custodes one I’ll also give them but reluctantly. There’s a good chance the Harlequins were fighting DEI hires instead of actual Custodes or SoS.
>>98295985Trick question, people who buy stuff like this don't get out of their basements.
>>98295991>3rd party models obviously intended for someone elses IP with wink nudge names like GRIMDARK ALIEN HIVEI don't care when IMPERIUM and GOD EMPEROR are straight lifted from Dune.Reminder that chapterhouse won, it was the legal fee that put them under.So fuck off, corpo bootlicker, you are a spineless hypocrite with sad dreams of cracking down on others to vent your own frustrations. D i s g u s t i n g.
>>98295949too many oc donut steels were made by people more severely autistic than the average nerd which were easy to make fun of, so now there’s been a shift where all OC’s are considered OC donut steels. there’s also a deeper societal problem where any self expression or weirdness is demonized in favor of sticking to whatever is approved by companies.
>>98295598Base sleepyposter
>>98295949I dont have issue with it most of yall just fucking suck at writing
>>98296025This sucks. I’d rather put up with cringe OCs rather than there being none at all.
>>98295985people would walk away from you, but it’ll be because of the smell from your obese folds collecting bacteria rather than the minis themselves.
>>98295985I would drop on all fours and jizz massively on the floor (hands free btw) while roaring and howling like a wild beast.
>>98296025nta but OC donut steel characters are not made by regular autists, more like narcissistic autists.
>>9829409099% of it is contained in the HH book Mechanicum.
>>98295984>the eldar won the war in heavenNo they didn't. The Necrons destroyed the Old Ones and the C'tan, and then didn't deem the Eldar worth the effort to wipe out when they could just be waited out.Slaanesh was the mother of Khaine thuse predating the War in Heaven, meaning at any time she could have ended the Eldar if she desired.>No argumentsGood job coping, but it doesn't work in the Eldar's favor.
I got these guys from a swap meet, I’m pretty sure they’re nurgle, but I’m not really a big fan of nurgle stuff. what color scheme should I paint these guys as?
>>98296061>No they didn't.the war in heaven ended with the necrons in hiding and the eldar ruling the galaxyno amount of copes will change the fact necrons lost>Slaanesh was the mother of Khaine thuse predating the War in Heaven, meaning at any time she could have ended the Eldar if she desired.that's not how chaos works
>>98296073Left guy is from the Gellerpox infected, and yea that's a Nurgle themed set. The right one is one of the Warcry warbands, it's Chaos worshiping but I don't think it's explicitly Nurgle.
>>98294826>Khaine was always the son of the Great Enemy and Lord of Skulls... The elevation of the Doom of the Aeldari was too much and broke apart his immortal frameThis makes perfect sense actually, and we don't need to appeal to the worp having wonky time for it. The concepts Slaanesh embodied were of course present in the warp before she woke up. The Eldar warrior's tendency for ego, vanity and the obsession with martial perfection when mixed with Khorne's attributes could have easily given birth to Khaine long before Slaanesh existed. When they say Khaine is the scion of Slaanesh that could just mean he embodies some of the same concepts as she does.And then when Slaanesh woke up all the warp vibes in Khaine that were aligned with her inflated like a balloon and made him popA hilarious depiction but also a totally fine one by the lore.
>>98296048BASED
>>982958181 - make the staff a spear, call him a sword bro2 - taxis3 - gladius or bastion
Eldar players can't take bantz lmao
Old Ones, C'tan, etc should never have been part of the lore.It should go Space Elves were first, then they did the oopsie, then everything else happened. Necrons should just be remnants of the AI revolution (they're literal Skynet Terminators come on now) and Orks are just a fungus that exists for some reason and honestly don't need any lore beyond that.
What do you guys listen to/watch when Painting? I need to focus and get my painting done before I open any new boxes
>>98296178if you wanted the setting to shrink as much as possible then eldar were ancient humans, orks are rad-mutated humans, necrons are men of iron, and tau don't exist
>>98296181a lot of thingslately it was a 13 hour youtube series about the history of colt percussion revolvers that i just finishednow i have to find something new
>>98296187>tau don’t existYou’re not shoving that genie back into the bottle. But honestly they should’ve just remained genuine good guys surrounded by literal horrors beyond comprehension.
>>98296187It doesn't have to shrink that much but I think the setting is perfect when it's about the Imperium as the protagonists, and the Eldar as deuteragonists, fighting the threats of Chaos, Orks, and Tyranids, in that order, and no lore needs to exist outside of that.
>>98296061>The Necrons destroyed the Old Ones and the C'tan, and then didn't deem the Eldar worth the effort to wipe out when they could just be waited out.Nope, Necrons couldn't defeat Eldar. Had to surrender and hide and Eldar spared them.This is plainly, openly, objectively stated. In Necron codex at that, since Eldar codexes don't bother with War in Heaven. So there is no bias here and no unreliable narrator either
>>98296209>and Eldar spared them.nta, but this part isn't
>>98295991Genuinely have more respect for honest-to-god recasters than people who sell "Galactic Marines" stl files. If you're going to be a pirate, be a pirate and get me black-market models at a steep discount.>>98296025Once I came up with a /myguys/ SM chapter that was the opposite of the meme custom order. They slavishly follow the Codex Astartes and spend all their time helping the poor and building orphanages and only fight in self-defense but they're a full-strength chapter so they still take up a lot of resources just to exist, and everyone with power openly hates them for it.
>>98296209What's stupid about this is that the Eldar supposedly had godly technology and spread all over the galaxy but never thought to look like, under their feet on any of these planets to see if the necrons were down thereEven though they should, in theory, have had tons of knowledge about the necrons from the previous war, especially how to find them.This Necron shit really ruined everything.
>>98296223>>98296215Eldar bullied Necrons until they got bored. Necrons were defeated, it's not like they could do anything about it
>>98296181the ken burns civil war documentaries of course.
Reminder that one of the Craftworlds has a map of every Necron Tomb in the galaxy, presumably meaning the locations have been known since before the Fall, and the Eldar STILL didn't try to destroy them.
>>98296227That excerpt outright states that primitives were a greater threat to the Necrons than the Eldar ever were.Eldar were less than vermin.
>>98296093>right is one of the warcry warbandsthanks for pointing it out, that explains why he didn’t have any technological bits on him. cool I can see him painted, so I know he doesn’t have any unexpected boils. I think I’ll remove the chaos star, and slap a gun on his back, to make him another generic diggaboy because he looks like he’ll fit in with the rest of the traitor guard.
Give it to me straight, is 11ed fun or not
>>98296295Better than 10eBut yknow game still has issues so
>>98296295It'll be good in 13e
>>98295985Is it possible to even win as Tau?
>>98296295If you didn’t like 10th you won’t like 11th. If you liked 10th you have bad taste so your opinion on 11th is irrelevant. Good news is we are less than 3 years away from 12th which should be a ground up overhaul edition.
Boarding Assault Intersexors when?
What we thinking about my first miniature? The leather parts haven't been highlighted yet as I'm still waiting for the needed paints to arrive. I kinda botched the priming and slightly got that sandy texture but heh, I'll do better on my next unit it's not that bad to me.
>>98296319>from 12th which should be a ground up overhaul edition.keep dreaming larper
>>98296321looks like a retard 10/10
>>98293911Found out that basically every ork player at my lgs is playing Deathskulls.Should I go Freebooters or Blood Axes instead? Or do you have a better recommendation?
>>98296295It's better than 10th so far. Codexes will likely fuck it up, just like they did with 10th.
>>98296356codexes are not why 40k was bad, at least not exclusively.
>>98296321Looks pretty good man! Keep it up.
>>98296223Would you rather live in fully automated luxury space communist utopia with reincarnation, or would you rather sit on some gay spaceship meticulously combing every planet in the galaxy for robots to kill?
>>98296352>every ork player is playing deathskullssounds familar. >should I go blood axes of freebooterz?both are great choices, but blood axes would be a good no nonsense foil to the wild and retarded deathskulls, so that might be good if you want to teach those thieving gits a lesson. camo is also a cool pattern you can place on everything to spice your orks up. if you’re really torn, then you can always go for the tried and true odds or evensodds go freebooterzevens go blood axesdubs join the deathskulls
>>98293911>TQ: Do you use any Legends units?I still run Grotesques regularly because why the hell would GW delete the only TEQ in the army roster after having it as a faction staple for 30 years?
>>98296396This is funny as fuck.
Would GW ban me if I painted my Orks Black?
>>98296181Usually prog rock or a podcast. The longer 15+ minute songs are better for it imo, they have a vibe that makes it easier to get into a flow state with.
>>98296395Do Freebooters even have an official colourscheme? I don't think they do.But I could also just do Blood Axes and Freebooters together have some hired guns here and there for a Blood Axes force.
>>98296295It is more fun than 10th.
>eldar constantly hold their psychic powers back to avoid slaaneshso what happens if an Eldar decides to go all out, just this once?
>>98296421they don’t, and I think that’s by design because they’re meant to be the odd one out army, so having an official color scheme might detract from their ragtag nature. I generally just headcanon they’re meant to be yellow (because many of them are former bad moons) and purple (because its the symbol of the royalty they often impersonate/loot from) >I could also just do Blood Axes and Freebooters together have some hired guns here and there for a Blood Axes force.this is the most kino choice.
>>98296474Then Blood Axe Freebooter joint force it is. I believe I can even combine their detachments for 3points.Also based, purple is my favourite colour.
>>98296473Eldrad can stop time halfway across the galaxy to have a conversation, so more than that I guess
>>98296488Eldrad is built different though
>>98296020>Reminder that chapterhouse wonYeah because British IP laws were completely fucking gay and Jewish and you are a faggot good goyim kikeslave defending that retarded ruling that if GW was nice to hobbyists and gave us extra rules for models they didnt have the resources yet to produce these fucking thirdie bootleg niggers could come and steal it by producing a model first and then any official one GW made later could be sued for copyright infringement OF THEIR OWN IDEA.Chapterhouse were streetshitting brown nigger pajeet jewy fucking FAGGOTS who ruined the hobby for actual hobbyists, I don't give a fuck about GW losing money I give a fuck about the fact that we cant have nice things anymore because these other fucking jews wanted to jew jews and WE got fucked. You stupid secondary third party shilling trash, kill yourself. You call others bootlicker while you're boot licking for WANNABES that are just as soulless and faggy as the worst corpo suits at GW and fucked us all over in the process. I'm glad the legal fees raped them, they should have been broken on the wheel like witches in the middle ages.
>>98296473Eldar during their empire were able to accumulate so much warp energy that they could summon their gods to battle. Not avatar, but their gods.
>>98296505>because British IP laws were completely fucking gay and JewishI think allowing someone to copyright terms as generic as "Space Marine" and "Imperial Guard" would be even more Jewish.
>>98296516Tf are you on about bro?
>>98293911And they say gw is BAD now!
>>98296505Literally every single model kit brand on the planet actively encourages customization and the production of aftermarket garage kits. Quite a few of them even produce magazines showing off fan kits and making variant designs specifically for hobbyists to make themselves. Gayworkshop is anti-hobbyist.
Some really interesting data about what disposition all the factions are running in tournaments after the first two weeks.
>>98296539Purge the foe appears strongest in general
>>98296531he’s a bit slow, he’s still reacting to that one anon who filled the OP with swastikas for the stormboy edition.
>>98296545Acting like he isnt on 4chan lol like what did he expect
>>98296539purge the for uber allesactually fun
>>98296516This is literally our board so maybe fuck off to somewhere more your speed like reddit
I like Orks :D
Covens venom. One raider, 3 planes and characters left for my Deldar army to be complete.
What's the easy entry point for someone looking to get into 40k?
>>98296610The test armies at your local gamestore
>>98296544That’s because 40K point system is fucktarded in so many ways.
>>98295697>>98296581>>98295697>>98296581
>>98295116All armies look samey because you’re supposed to paint them to look the same.
>>98295116SoB are the most uniform i think, but you can still mix things up with repentia and flagellants with thempersonally i love a clone army
>>98296616Hey man it is what it is
>>98296685Honestly, that’s probably the truest thing that’s Been posted in this thread. Now I kinda wanna start a sisters army, just wish they weren’t so horsey/expensive to start with.
What's an army where I can paint a majority of them purple. Thought about nids but I don't know if I can do another horde army after doing guard.
>>98296694i solved this by being very lazy so that expense was over years and years before my army was finally ready barely even noticed the hit to my wallet mwehehe
>>98296715slaanesh obvsdark elves could work if it is a dark purple
>>98296625i like orks :D
>>98296610What's your budget?
>locals decided we would work towards a badab campaign>it's been 9 months and only one other person has scrounged together a 1000 pt army>the next most prepared person has one unit of terminators half painted
>>98296685In the Sisters case, that's mostly because they don't have a lot of units, and a lot of what they do have is a loadout swap from another unit.Dominions and Retributors are just Battle Sisters with different weapons, same with Seraphim and Zephyrim, and Insidiants and Sacrestants, and non-anchorage Mortifiers and Penitent Engines. And every vehicle is a Rhino. Oh, and every list has at least one unit of Paragon Warsuits led by Morvenn Vahl.The rest of the problem is that all the major orders and most of the "official" minor orders use the same three colors.
>>98296539>Eldar trying Priority Assets LOL, LMAO Literally only disruption and recon are viable. ESPECIALLY in the purge the foe slop meta. The codex cant drop soon enough. I fucking hate what they've done to Eldar.
>>98296781i hope the bikers are just battle sisters on bikes tbdesuwhat are some more unique units they should get?
>>98296832erm actually anon they will be battle sisters on cyborg horses (mechanicus have a lot of spare ones)
>>98296839that is also cool thoughever
>>98296832Honestly, bikers that are like the jump pack units but with better range and no deep strike would have a purpose. Could probably fit two sisters to a warbike since they're a lot smaller than Space Marines. Even the cyborg horses idea has some appeal to it...For me, it would be leaning into the Sisters as an Order cult opposing the Chaos cult. Give them some fucked-up mutant animals to ride as specialty vehicles, like the lion equivalant of an Ogryn or something. Get them the SoB equivalent of Terminator armor as a MEQ unit with an Orkish amount of guns per model. Give them cryptids and folkloric creatures as an Imperial equivalent to chaos demons.It would add ways to play besides "endless Battle Sisters and possibly also endless Rhinos" and "meme penitent swarm" if you had the option to bring a palatine riding a griffon that obviously fell out of a lab somewhere, a set of Bulletstorm Hellfucker armor sisters, or the Flatwoods monster as a psyker.We can make this faction really fucked up but every main order is about whether the Sisters prefer to kill civilians or themselves.
>>98294826AI coming in clutch. Reminder this is the same book that claimed Ynnead was notbinaryGAVIS A FAG
>>98296727>>98296715Dark Eldar look pretty great in purple. It feels kind of like one of their signature colors, considering Slaanesh literally learned it from them.
Could a skitari turn into a living dildo
>>98296826Priority Assets is just hard countered by Purge lists built to punish MSU action spammers. I really am not sure what they were thinking with some of these mission matchups.
>>98296912As much as I hate wokeslop, I have to admit that one makes sense. Ynnead is the counterpart to Slaanesh and Slaanesh is a hermaphrodite freak.
Who was in the wrong here?
>>98296980GW
>>98296980Has Abaddon at any point in his life been in the right?
>>98296980Abaddon because he's lame and gayVashtorr is the coolest new Chaos character added to the setting in maybe literally ever
>>98296980he looks like a soijak
>>98295813I made these for a friend, they were super fun to do and rather easy. My advice for anyone trying them though is to shave the back of the deathmark skull off rather than trying to redo the neck joint.
Wealth beyond measure, hive dweller.
>>98295835The duality of man. I think the elves are not woody enough and the dinos are excellent. They somehow nailed the sci-fi-ness of them in just the right ways.
>>98296600I like your tentacle gunner thats a nice touch.
>He's right behind me isn't he?
Seeing the AoBR + Armageddon Warboss conversion last thread, plus my own proclivity to not leave him built as is, has me wondering if any other Ork posters here have already been personalizing their Warboss, if they grabbed the set.
>>98297017Art like this is where all the Votann hate comes from. It's entirely from GW making a bunch of beardless, bulldyke women with Pride march haircuts instead of just making them manly male dwarves. They literally fucked their own sales by doing this, stupid cunts.
>>98297024Was really funny seeing it come out when most people didn't even have opinions on the votann side of the box since it was just more generic space suit dwarves but everyone was talking up beastmen.
>>98297028I also like how beastmen really are just here's beastmen but some 40k greebles, which will appeal to beastmen fans, while votann do not really fill the aesthetic niche of dwarfs.
Starter set releases when?
>>98296715None. I forbid you from painting anything purple.
>>98296715Thousand Sons
>>98296715Emperors children before they fell to chaos lol
>>98297017It's corrective.
well except for doing a base I'd say its about done
>>98297020ooh, I love the mohawk. I haven’t done it yet, but my main gripes are with the horns (which I can easily shave off), and I personally despise the warboss’ weedy little arms. I think it looks alright with the gun, but its just too noticeable when he’s swinging like that. tomorrow, I’m planning on slicing off the forearm and salvage the chainaxe to make an orky fasces then I’ll replace it with one of these. I’ll have to see which one looks best on it when I’m fully awake. for now, goodnight.
>>98297064Why inquisition though.....ew.Paintjobs good though. I have a recast classic style one im waiting to build hopefully soon, though I really got nowhere to put it safely sadly...
What’s a thematic army to have on jungle bases, other than Eldar?
>>98297182Anything, though I'd say Necrons, SoB, Votann, and Ad Mech are probably the least suited.
>>98297182catachan jungle fighters of course
>>98296539>Tau dont have anything fun detachment combo wise outside of the stealth one and maybe excad>EC have fun detachments but coterie is so thematic, fun, and good you may as well run it, also tiny roster>Chaos Knights, lolWhy must I have picked the armies that get shafted grrr grrrrr
>>98297024It's so obnoxious, especially because the kits are actually great and come with more than enough heads to make an all male squad and they still insist on putting the ugliest cunts imaginable on all the art and showcase minis.
>>98297024I'm not touching the culture war bit of that but so many problems with LoV are based in the fact that their armor (very retardedly) does not allow for big beards or long hair. The males can't have proper dwarf beards, the females can't have long braids that invoke the same aesthetics as beards — they're just stuck as squashed people.
>>98293096Thanks anon, I'll give some thought to how I want to use one when I get around to it in the future.
>>98297237The beards could have been tucked into the suits, but yeah.
>>98297226I don't understand why there are "hidden bits" at all. GW is a rich as fuck company; they can afford to have painted photographs of every single option in a kit on the store page. Did you know that the Culexus Assassin has an alternate head? I bet that at least 80% of 40k fans didn't, because they never ever show it.
>>98297064looks like you glued it together with a soldering iron mate, what the fuck were you thinking?
>>98297237I can only assume there was a real push to not do "another fantasy race in space". Ignoring the fact that there are already space elves and space orks. Ignoring the fact that the player base would probably like space dwarves. Ignore the fact that the army they were trying to revive basically already were just dwarves in space. Someone at GW thought they knew better.
>>98297251There was definitely some failures to communicate with the design teams. In the WarComm article talking about them when they came out, the lead designer said they didn't want them to just be "dwarfs in space" but then they went and made their whole gameplay gimmick around grudge tokens.
how awful is it collecting druchii since they axed the original combat patrol
>>98297271They'll get a battletome also >>>/aosg/
Pokemon types for each faction
>>98297277dark elves are dark elvesmy friends are finally getting into warhammer so its gonna be my excuse for finally picking them up
Pitch a new unit for an army you play.Me, I want a Sister of Battle sniper. An actual, real sniper, with 48 inch range, precision, all of that.
>>98296980Both of them for not accepting the true Chaos idol
>>98297309Heretek kill team for CSM Maybe expand on Negavolt Cultists by giving them a variety of zappy weapons beyond just the prods
>>98297309Medium tank for Orks. Something that fills the hole the Gunwagon left.
>>98297309We got a heavy tank with the Rogal DornWe got a medium tank with the Leman RussWe kinda have a light tank with the HippogriffIt's time to break out the tankettes
>>98297337SIGFRIED WHEN, JAMES YOU CUNT.
>>98297326
>>98297326Orks used to be a proper faction.
>>98297309i want an SoB vehicle that isn't a rhino, something with a big gun stronger than S10
what you guys use as a replacement for green stuff now that it's gone
>>98297309Every time I do this GW releases something very close to what I suggested around two years later and I never get any credit and no one will ever believe me, alas. I'll just shotgun some stuff and maybe someone will benefit.>TyranidsStill waiting on a Malefactor/Dactylis dual-kit to round out the last of the old epic monsters, and it's also about time they did a plastic Hierodule reimagined to fit the more modern style, hopefully with a boatload of weapon options and alternate biomorphs (as if they do that level of customization anymore...) Also Shrikes are obvious given that they released a Winged Prime in the 10th ed box and then no damn Shrikes to accompany it.>AdMechMore weird Tech-Priests. Like, just go off the cover art for their codex from Lewis Jones and bring that stuff to life, go nuts. We have enough units for the Skitarii, make more actual Cult Mechanicus dudes that are huge and bristling with machinery and mechadendrites. And bring back the body horror, they should be scary.>EldarGive them a damn Bonesinger already, it's such an easy one-off to release. Maybe they could also use a plastic Wraithseer, or at least some new type of Wraith. Could do something inspired by the old Ghost Warriors from Rogue Trader that had buzzsaw hands and a gun coming out the mouth, something off-beat, maybe make it an Ynnari or Corsair unit or something for flavor to explain why it's so different. And keep expanding Exodites.>Dark EldarNeed half their range. Add more weird alien beasts with the beastmaster, and weird alien mercenaries and hangers-on and stuff with a new Court of the Archon but even bigger and more exotic. Again, go nuts. So much room for wild new concepts. And give the new Grotesques some alternate weapons and stuff.>NecronsGive back their Pariahs with proper body horror (the visible teeth, fleshy bits under the metal etc).>Thousand SonsPsychic Dreadnought. And cyber-Tzaangors just to annoy that one anti-Tzaangor guy.
>>98297245not him but what do you mean? it looks fine to me.
Are Heldrakes good now?
>>98297368less pteraxi and archaeopters and more robots and actual machinery
>>98297368>And cyber-Tzaangors just to annoy that one anti-Tzaangor guy.There's more than one anti tzaangor guy but I'd be fine with a non AoS Tzaangor kit
>>98297363what do you mean?
>>98297393the plant that made kneadatite closed down a few months ago so no more green stuffeveryone is charging an arm and a leg for remaining stock
I like em
>>98297388god all the horus heresy stuff is just so fucking cool man
There is no faction in 40K with a worse case of "every model looks basically the same" as Eldar. Orks are also bad.
>>98297368>More weird Tech-Priests.The tech priests are usually pretty good. Feels like it's a different team working on them.
>>98297368Continued>World EatersJames you know what you fucking did wrong here, fix it. Repeat after me:RED BUTCHERS terminators. TEETH OF KHORNE heavy weapons guys. BERSERKER-SURGEON character. This was an EASY dunk and you did fucking Eightbound, and you didn't even give the Eightbound wings or eight arms or something fun like that. Get your shit together. On top of these, you could also add Berserker bikers (god knows Chaos needs new bikes) and if you want something really spicy give them an open-topped transport that's basically a Rhino with the top sawed off (by chainaxes, natch) and a bunch of spikes and blades sticking out in every direction so they can ram right into close combat and pile out the top. Chaos Wheels would be sick too. Oh and a Blood Slaughterer fucking obviously, it was one of their first units in Rogue Trader how did you not bring this back? Just put it on treads and make it a mini-Lord of Skulls that's more Dreadnought sized.>Emperor's ChildrenSubjugator big lanky walker daemon engine that they had in epic. And a Sonic Dread.>Death GuardPlague Ogryns or something, just big dumb brute poxwalkers that are fucking LARGE. And before I finish talking about Chaos how bout a new generic Chaos spawn kit with a billion options that's actually good, please?>Sisters of BattlePlastic Repressor. Easy win. I miss that thing it was fucking sick.>Imperial GuardWhere are my fucking Catachans. They could have been a Kill Team vs the Exodites instead of NPO Beast Snaggaz. What are you even doing over there, guys? Otherwise no real complaints honestly, Guard has lots of cool shit right now, the Krieg expansion was great, I like the new vehicles they just got, good work. New Ogryns would be nice, Age of Sigmar Ogres that just got revealed totally mog them.>Genestealer CultsHybrid Zoats. No I'm not kidding. Dead fucking serious. Don't be wusses just do it. Imagine how sick they'd look painted with purpley skin and huge fleshborers.
>>98297413I've always kind of felt that the DoAT and degeneration of humanity after the Emperor took the throne was sort of undermined by how the Admech already had basically the exact same religion even before the Emperor showed up.
>>9829741310k years is a hell of a time.
>>98297294How many friends are you bringing into the hobby and what armies are they looking to start?
>>98297425these mog the 30k ones so much it's unreal
>>98295985I want nudity in the models, but less the sexy pinups.Repentia should be naked and covered in self-flagellation scars and burn to like half their body. Only thing they're wearing is purity seals.That kind of stuff.Deldar can be a little sexy I guess.
>>98297309Necron indirect. I can accept giving it weak rules since indirect is a bitch to balance, but the faction with the most advanced technology in the setting not having an artillery unit bothers me.
>>98297432There is a 0% chance you'll ever get anything sexier than existing Deldar women. Even Slaaneshi demons aren't allowed to be sexy anymore.
>>98297431Bait used to be believable
>>98297388Oddest thing was how long it took to just get proper combat servitors and it was in kill team of all fucking things. Like what fuck ass was going on at GW where they were saying "yeah admech don't need servitors in their army" for a decade.
>>98297445the only bait is posting nu-30k sloppa thinking people like that shit
>>98297448are they even good?
>>98297388>and more robotsWe'll never see them in 40k.
>>98297445>30knoisy overdesigned dogshit, 3 poses repeated twice>40kdistinct silhouette, clearly inspired by blanche skitarii art
>>98297425the hastari are fucking awesome i just wish they were more elite, coming back to the hobby after some time and seeing these are the newest models was fucking amazing, i want get a big squad of them
>>982974302 of my friends are splitting the armageddon box and working on 2k points of orks and the other is working on space marines he wanted to make deathwatchbut they wanted to start out with 1k games to get used to it
>>98297309>tauGue'vesa breacher minis. Or hell, just an upgrade sprue so the gun arms have the right number of fingers.
What elements would need to be converted to make her an obvious farseer besides just plopping a helmet on?She'd be fine as is as an exodite, but for craftworlders?Change the dragon belt, add a singing spear or a staff, cut away the cloak and add classic eldar spines perhaps?
>>98297237somehow I bet gav thorpe was behind this because "dwarves in space would be boring" sounds exactly like the kind of pretentious babble he would say
>>98297251They took great care to also not really use anything from RT squats.
>>98297522that hand looks VERY easy to cut off and replace with a hand carrying a staffthrow some decals on the cloakgreen stuff to fill in the sculpted bits on the bottom part of the tunic and put an eldar decal there. headswap to literally any eldar head, if you want to get fancy to preserve the hair do shave away with a very sharp hobby knife the face until you can put an eldar face on it instead.
>>98297251I think there's a big issue as well where they don't seem to know what they wanted to do with them. Like the whole Votann situation really feels like a corporate mandate and no one actually working on the game or setting knows what to do with them. Like they feel like they kind of just exist without really contributing to the meta-narrative or sandbox of the setting in the way the other factions do.
>>98297309Give me actual Vashtorr lesser daemons. Preferably I'd prefer a full army of dark mech mixed with soul forge daemons but I'll settle for like a kill team sized release of daemons.
someone a few threads ago mentioned the old metal thunderhawk as being the hardest model to assemble everi just remembered my LGS has three of them in a cabinet and yeah, it looks like a bitch to put together
>>98297605ope
>>98295519No. Some Shrines may be larger or smaller in the number of Warriors sworn to them, but each Aspect shrine is a unique shrine
>>98293911Is the torrent link broken or am I just retarded?
>>98297576>Isolated to one section of the galaxy where they are "hidden">Not really threatened by anyone other than minor incursions>Don't really want anything but resources raided from other worlds>Don't care if other races continue living so long as they don't get in the way>Not really anyone's sworn enemy>No real alliances or connections with any other major factionThey've made this exact mistake before with Dark Eldar who are equally irrelevant to everything
>>98297626I think the biggest issue is that you can have those kinds of factions but they need to be something interesting in the sandbox. Orcs, Deldar, and Tau are all some flavors of basically irrelevant to the meta narrative but all can be used in interesting ways. But Votann are just Tau but short humans and no naiveite about the setting. Orcs are great because they can just be slotted into any conflict with zero issue, and deldar act as foils to the normal eldar. But the Votann seem to have zero reason to really get involved in any major events, and if they do they would have basically zero reason not to assist the Imperium 9 times out of 10.
>>98297620>or
>>98295847>here's rules for a campaign where you capture territory for bonuses on a map and you can link your Battlefleet Gothic space battles with the ground battles like suchWhich white dwarf is this found in? Specifically the linking Battlefleet gothic with ground battles, I already know about Planetary Empires
>>98294391Gladiator Lancers seem to be taking their place in 11th lists that I've seen.
There is no special occasion. Post dark eldar women.
Here's the guy who's supposed to improve troop morale.
>>98297680i want to like them but wych models didn't really age well
>>98297487You could look for the realspace raiders box cos it has a lil of everything
>>98296539I do like how Ork strategies boil down to either 'Grab dat' or 'Skrag 'em!"
>>98297687Wdym? Aged like fine wine
>>98297683'improve' and 'enforce' mean the same thing in 40kalso, hey wolfer
>go to LGS>see this What do?
>>98297698Hell yeah.
>>98297698Hehe monke
>>98295728Anon just get mini painting primer, it's not that much more expensive. Also the first time you use it, give the can a warm bath in your sink to loosen all the resin binders up, then shake it like hell in different directions for at least 2 minutes, and lastly spray from at least a foot away, 2 if you can manage, in little spurts passing across the model.Also check the weather and make sure it's under 60% humidity.
>>98297698Hell yeah
>>98297698Chimp out.
Hobby Question here:>stripping chinesium recast 40k modelsIf I want another go at a paint job, will my model desolve in anything storng enough to to eat the paint? I have isoproply alcohol.
We may have gotten shafted in 9th and 10th, but 11th is our edition right?
>>98297641No, it was just me being retarded.
>>98297742don't put resin models in IPA to strip, it'll ruin themuse diluted degreaser
>>98297745Let me put it this way - now that Squats came back as the Votann, we can't really use "squatted" anymore, so the new word is going to be "daemoned".
>>98297714>spray from at least a foot away, 2 if you can managegreat way to get a grainy texture from the paint drying in the air
>>98297683>improve moraleMaybe he tells really funny jokes?
>>98297745the one demonfag im in contact with doesn't seem to be complaining since 6" DS is pretty strong to cage with greater daemons
>>98295847>next month Tyranids get a new codex where every datasheet has 10-20 biomorph optionsIt was too much fun so it was removed
>>98297745you didn't get shafted at all, you have both great rules and a great range. forcing this narrative makes you look fucking pathetic
>>98294090Mechanicum in HH, the image is pretty much DIRECTLY summarizing the book
>>98296367this. literally this. the necrons retreated, the eldar won and had unchallenged dominance of the galaxy.now that the eldar have fallen, the crons are waking up. its really not that deep.
Has anyone tried the WD sidegame where you markdown damage between knights?
>>98297683Bro look at those gains, I'm more motivated already. Guy's built like a brick shithouse.
>>98297766I've never experienced that, only resin clumping mid-air because of humidity.
>>98297459They're kinda weird in Kill Team, like they require you to set up this sort of triangulation pattern between servitors when moving, a lot of people don't like them and feel it's too restrictive, but i've still heard good things.In 40k, they're meta auto-includes right now. Most people are taking 2 of them in Priority Assets dispositions.
Good morning, I love sisters
>>98297924Good Morning Sir!
>>98297309>tauI don't want a new unit. Just bring XV9s back out of legends
>>98297680Some lovely newer lady art
>>98297680And some classic older lady art
>>98297680Some killer looks
>>98297680And some sharp features
>>98297309>VotannSome sort of giant steelkin with a dreadnaught style statline that I can throw up the midboard.Units of 1-2, roughly T9-11 with a fat chunk of wounds and good melee and shooting profiles.>T'auMelee battlesuits. Something that uses shield drones like the OZ mobile suit Mercurius but with a giant sword. Either that, or patch all the suits to have melee profiles like the Twin Lance.>NecronsI honestly don't know, I only use a fraction of the factions Datasheets since I despise a bunch of shit like the Destroyers and Flayers since all the models are ugly.I guess a mini monolith to act as a main battle tank that's actually useable?
>>98297309>EldarThey have a ton of units already but the aspect that's the most lacking is vehicles, wish we got an eldar version of repex - a proper guntank with more than 2 weapons.>Blood AngelsI don't want anything new, SM have pants on head retarded amount of units already, but I wish they'd brought back Librarian Dread. Alternatively, they're missing their flavor of termies and the honor guard equivalent.>CustodesAnti-tank gun infantry.
>>98297309kung fu/karate eldarThey are weebs and do not have martial artists, it has to changeAlso make them use double power fists
>>98297020>chainsaw mohawkBased and house Goliath-pilledlooks sick lad, wish id done that to mine now
>>98298118Harlequins already have that. Most of their weapons are fist weapons. One even makes them look like they're bare handed.Maybe a harlequin mime, or another solitaire sculpt where they dont wield weapons.
>>98297309>DrukhariIt's hard not to just pick one of the old units we have lost (there are tons of them) but I would really like a new pain engine chassis that's another dual-build between two different modes. Something that really leans into the horrible amalgamation of human parts repurposed to alien ends.>AdMechPlease just give us another Cybernetica unit. More robots for the roboticists. Without invoking all the Horus Heresy options, a war of the worlds style Martian walker would be cool though that might encroach too much on Necrons.>DeathguardSobe kind of jump pack infantry or mounted funit. If we are abandoning the slow and heavy theme for plagues let's go all out and get some reaper pestilence horsemen or bloatfly knights.
>>98298014>Some sort of giant steelkin with a dreadnaught style statline that I can throw up the midboard.I can hear boisterous laughter inside my head.
Damn the Iron Hands look good
>>98298260>those armsThey look familiar
Damn the World Eaters look good
>>98298278You may have taken a wrong turn.
>>98298260SEXOOO
>>98298260>>98298279Nice transgender porn, did you commission them?
>>98298260this is probably the most degenerate artist you could follow. all the pedophilia of mosscannibalis with none of the taste or quality.
>>98297745I had thought they were winding up to slap daemons and destroy their inter-game range, but the new Custodes are inter-game, so maybe they changed their minds.
back in my day we used to just call it rule 63
>>98298299>Old man posioned by troon propaganda Sad to see.
>>98298005>>98298002Jfc nu GW can't draw faces to save their life.Like I get someone with 400 facial augmetics looking like they got a weird face but how do they fuck these up? I'm pretty sure it's the company mandated art style but still. You'd think one artist knew how to draw a decent face.I wouldn't give either of those a pass if they got submitted by my company's marketing team.
>>98298316is your company marketing team "british"?

>Sean Strickland is a Kriegger all this timeHim beating Chimaev broke the timeline in ways I didnt expect
>>982967415 pennies, some dryer lint, and a cool leaf i found outside
>>98298324Fortunately not, it seems.I had the same issue with the faces in the craftworld Eldar codex. I dunno who's doing the art for Eldar but most of single character pieces from the last 3 editions need to be redone.
>>98298339Amazon is into Dark Angels? What does this mean?
>>98298339he sounds like a loretuber tertiary
>>98298330Yeah, that's a pretty gay feature.
If Fleshmetal merges your outer skin with your armor, are you technically naked given your outer shell is your skin?
>>98298339>AI marine blending primaris and manletHideously cursed.
>>98298330I’ve never understood what the point of that was. why can’t I just immediately cover up my humiliating failure?
>>98298372Archive needs to keep it forever for some reasonAlternatively NSA needs to have it in their database
>>98298364no
>>98298372It is so we can bully you longer. Now be a good geekboy and receive your bullying.
>>98298348The new Drazhar codex art is also pretty horrendous and chunky compared to his sleek murderous look he used to have.
>>98297411I think these dudes are the best thing ksons have gotten in a decade (fuck you Magnus I hate boxing you and your fragile ass wings). Free overwatch with 3-4 guns (1 or 2 of which are torrent so they don't have to roll 6s) on an infiltrator unit is insane, and plus it's a vehicle for synergy with that one detachment to make it even better.
>>98298320For me it's the bolt shotgun and Ion Blasters on everyone.Autoch-Pattern Bolter is sexy though
>>98297481Too bad they come in 5's and don't have a main weapon arm for the alpha despite it being a part of his wargear.
>>98298002How did she manage to look worse in art than as a model
>>98298388even odder considering that his last host is a woman even if PL-tiers are bodymorphing
>>98298414the sculptor cared, the artist didn't
who was the last good artist working for GW? i honestly havent seen anything remotely well illustrated come out of 40k in a decade. aos was a bit better but now its art has been crap the last few editions too
>>98298437there are good artists still, it's just that gw pays them like crap and gives them deadlines tightest than the girls at epstein's island
>>98298260Ye
>>98298382Sauce?
>>98297698Kneel
>>98298460Don't anon, it's too Slaanesh.
Eldarbros....this edition fucking sucks.......
I hate painting storm shields. they little cracks are so hard to get into without hitting the cross or little paper.I'm kind of stuck so I need your suggestions? What should I write on the blank parchment on the right leg and the shield?And what color should I paint the tactical rock and the tilting shield. The helmet/s laurel will be green like the right leg.
>>98298491Chapter Icon over a white pennant for the tilt shield.Red for the tactical rock I think, or mossy basalt
>>98298488we need to be on the bottom of the totem pole for a while to recoup some good will so people actually want to play games with us again. a lot of people are still shell shocked from the last few editions and launch 10th eldar in particular.
>>98298491Its easier to paint the whole shield the background color first then to paint the raised surfaces.
>>98298488>Mmmm, eldar still isn't below 45%.... I'm thinking we need another +10 on warp spiders...
>>98298556When Eldar have served their time maybe Necrons can take a turn down there for while. Feel like it's been ten years or so since they've actually been bad and they are aggressively unfun to play into. But more likely Tau is going back to the trash heap next when they get dumpstered again.
>>98298701Necrons are probably the most aggressively unfun fight below knights thanks to reanimation protocols.What's that? Your entire army only killed 29/30 members of my squad? Watch 28 get back up meaning you spent your entire turn maybe killing one infantry model.Better than knights though at least sometimes a guy stays down. Fuck machine spirit resurgent and knights in general btw. Shit doesn't belong in 40k outside apocalypse.Would rather get tabled by eldar or some new broken flavor of space marine any day of the week.
>>98298765More like nigcrons
>>98298765>Necrons are probably the most aggressively unfun fight below knights thanks to reanimation protocols.Custodes are also up there.
>>98298773Necrons, Custodes, Deathguard All the super durable factions are just really exhausting to shoot everything into and not actually kill anything
>>98298775>>98298765>nerfs GSC even moreWhy does GW hate GSC so much? Are they outselling marines or something?
>>98298775that's how i learned to love splittabe squads and tank shock with t12+ vehicles
>>98297017>>98297024The women are all fat and bald, and the men look like Vaush.
>>98297251>Space Orks>Space Elves>Space Dark Elves>Space Egypt twice>Space Skeletons>Space Knight multiple times>Space Dark Knight mutliple times>Space Dagon Cult>Space Napoleon>Space IndiaEverything in 40k is just space something.
Why is the general dead
>>98298437It has the same issue MTG has had art direction wise where they overwhelmingly pay for sanitized digital corporate garbage and stifle anything made that isn't generically marketable (see how most recent box arts you can think of are just spess mareens in a generic hero pose contrast to anything from 20+ years ago)Shit isn't allowed to be off model, shit's not allowed to be rough or unrefined, shit's not allowed to be something that couldn't be used as a banner for their latest news article
>>98298829Even the space bugs?
>>98297424Isn't the issue with current admech that during the heresy traitor went scortch earth and fuck up a bunch of information?As in if you use this data you might get demons up your ass.So whatever they had recover till the heresy is useless and need to start their lost tech hunting all over again?
>>98298854They're space dinosaurs/dragons
>>98298829There's no space india
>>98298854Even the bugs.It is impressive that only setting that GW has that has original shit is fantasy with Skaven.Everything else is a copy of something else.
>>98298870lizardmen too
>>98298869>Tau>not space india
>>98298874Oh, you're retarded I see
>>98298857No, the issue with modern admech is that jes goodwin has a very autistic view of what "archeotech" should look like: not futuristic tech of a previous advanced age to 40k's standard, but tech that is advanced but looks old to our own standards, hence the wings, classical decorations and retrofuturistic robots
>>98298870Everything is derivative of something else that’s kind of the nature of creativity
>>98298879
>>98298874They're not space india unless you want to fossilize on the use of a caste system.
>>98298899(you)>>98298900he's just shitposting, ignore him
>>98298339I bet a lot of seething he gets is because everybody who disagrees knows he will beat their asses so they can’t “subtly” threaten him with violence.Still it isn’t a good idea for warhammer 40k fags to worship random celebrities as it only communicates that they’re the exception like the cavil worship being that 40k lads can be attractive.In this case that warhammer 40k players are fit. I’m not sure what other examples there are or this phenomenon.
>>98298869>society which once had great technological and intellectual advancement has turned into a complete wasteland with factories spewing out smog, trash everywhere, cities packed with 20 people sharing the same room, and superstitions overcoming reasonlook into your heart, you know it to be true.
>>98298910I like strickland but he has retarded alcoholic energyHe probably receives more eyerolling than seethe
>>98298848I remember seeing a leman russ tank box art like the Horus heresy diorama photos like pic related.I have a feeling the box art style changed from pseudo war photos or pseudo war video screenshots to what we have now is because parents or dumb customers thought the background out of focus miniatures were going to be included. May not have been the biggest reason but I think it played a part.
>>98298900>caste system>uplifted by some force outside of their caste>superpower by M43>ungulate as a reference to sacred cows>T'au'va is many-armed in a Hindu fashion>probably spam their local internets with "good morning"
>>98298932most of that applies to mankind as well
Tau should be more Zeon.
>>98298937Yeah because Indians are still humans, even though they love to play with cow shit for some fucking reason.
>>98298932Half of that is headcanon and none of the rest is exclusively Indian you braindead faggotThe tau are Japanese in aesthetics per the word of their creator and NATO in behaviorKeep trying
>>98298932>>T'au'va is many-armed in a Hindu fashion
>>98294707>Eldar schizo posting
>>98298957The Democles gulf infantry book thingy had a Tau blood god that was just a Tau-Genestealer hybridShame GW never made non human Genestealer hybrids
>>98298869I wish they drew more influences from Hindu and eastern mythologies in general. But I think there's a general hesitation to do so these days out of perceived insensitivity to practitioners of those religions, because they still have there devotees today despite their relatively ancient origins.Personally I think that's a crock of shit. People raised under hindu or other cultural contexts can appreciate seeing influences, references, and deconstructions of their own myths and legends just as much as westerners often enjoy seeing Christian or Hebrew iconography or story structures reused or repuprosed in other contexts.
>>98298955We are talking about GW here. Most of the time they do not know what a gun is let alone other cultures outside of meme level of understanding.So it is perfectly possible they made Tau like Indians by accident.
>>98298922You’re probably right but I do think it is funny when the violence threats over the internet is preemptively denied because he is a professional unarmed fighter.Does having a good physique especially in the arms make one a better miniature painter by chance?There may not be much data on this because warhammer players aren’t known for being fit. But boris Vallejo’s wife was a bodybuilder and a painter just not of miniatures, so maybe she can answer that if she has in any interviews.
>>98293911Hey guys, collage anon here. Sorry the collage is a bit late, I've been extremely busy these last few days, been traveling. I'll put it together as soon as I get home tonight.
The Japanese do Hindu better.
>>98298437well the main problem is that they don't hire artists anymore, they use mostly freelancers
>>98298982NoMusculature would have little to no influence on paintingThere would be a secondary effect of having a fit body allowing you to paint for longer hours without fatigue that could theoretically accrue into increased skill over a period of years, and people who are fit just being more diligent/disciplined in general but in pragmatic reality, no
>>98298993>what ffxvi failed to be
>>98298870skaven are copies too
>>98299003Thanks it was worth an ask.How likely am I to mog the majority of lgs goers if I work out so my arms are defined like the girl in the yugioh general op pic’s arms are?I’m probably still gonna have a belly and look like I skip leg day.I’ve never heard of a physical fight over warhammer 40k at my lgs but I gotta be ready if such a thing happens now to protect my minis.
>>98298910I paint pretty well and am a low level mma fighter anon. Sometimes you can have two hobbies you invet a lot of time to.Also people cant mog my physique nor my paintjob. So I can say fuck trannies and femstodes and they can't do anything but seethe.
>>98299028Kek just lift regularly, get 8 hours of sleep a day, pay attention to your diet, try to stay around 12-15%bf and dont neglect cardioAnyway orks are based
>>98299028with questions like that you should count yourself lucky if you are even able to get out of your basement without causing third hand embarrassment.
>>98299034God I love summer
>>98299028physical fight? no. someone showing up with a crossbow to shoot you for a slight in a previous game? more likely than you think.
>>98299034Nobody was gonna throw hands over those things anyway anon lol
>retard at lgs starts making up random rules during our game as he's losing>call him out for being a retard>he calls me a "die-el" (whatever the fuck that means) and starts flexing>pull out my ccw and brain him>the enbies in the corner start clapping and buy me a forge world baneblade >get my dick sucked in the gender neutral bathroompffft nice gains dumbass
>>98299044I'm just saying I'm fit and like 40k, so when I go games and shop and people ask what I think of the new custodes minis, I can just say "meh, dont like how they made them women, reeks of woke" and they cant really call me an incel, nor can they call me a tourist because I actually paint better than most of them, and custodes is my army.Unless you call pic rel sub par paintjobs.It serves to be physically fit and handsome. Insults dont land at all.
>>98298982The realistic answer is "bodybuilders are almost always going to be better painters, but it's not because they're strong, it's because they're disciplined and have their shit together and that's the main thing you need for both hobbies">>98299063Let me guess, you play Tau?
What options son
>>98299075Also this is the second high budget 40k videogame where they give tarantulas to space marines while in the tabletop they are exclusively for 30k.
>>98299075probably dow will allow you to upgrade them to hellblasters, infernus or whatever the missile ones are called
>>98299073In reality the best painters are not bodybuilders, theyre weak little guys who spend like 12 hours a day paintingBodybuilding takes time and energy that couldve been put into paintingI get what youre saying but its not accurate in general
>>98299063ANON NOOOO DON'T GO INTO THE BATHROOM WITH THE ENBY XEY'RE GOING TO SHOW YOU XIR NURGLUSSY
>>98299090Nerf squad
>>98299093Who the fuck paints for 12h a day?Paint in the weekends or 1h to 3h per day.Work out/train 2h per day (counting commute).Shower clean up 30mins after workout/training.Thats 2,5 to 5,5 hours for both hobbies per day. Without counting rest days where you can paint more.People spend more time slacking off.
>>98299090No, it's just the auto/stalker bolt rifles.
>>98299115The best painters lolThe best people in the world at their chosen craft pursue it monomaniacally, to their own detrimentYou’re describing a healthy lifestyle, which is great and what I would generally recommend obviouslyBut yeah this idea that working out makes you better at everything is retardedIts just a healthy thing that everyone should do for their long term health
>>98295903That's one part but just making everything retarded hurt more than anything. I'd rather have mystery than dumb.
>>98299124Nobody good at anything spends 12h per day doing it. Rest is important. Cool downs are important. Time off is important. Burnout is a thing.If you spend 12h painting minis per day, you're a pretty shit painter. The best painters just need 6h maximum per day.
>>98295903>>98299127One word that ruined the Horus Heresy:Allah forgive me for writing this word... Perpetuals
>>98299132
>>98295909If you are gay
>>98299133Valhallan refresh when
>>98299130You’re still thinking of it in the context of becoming pretty decently good over a long period of timeThat’s a healthy way of framing it and that is the way that I would generally recommend that people pursue thingsBut to actually be the best and reach the apex of something requires monomaniacal, extreme dedication to the point of self destruction
