Tournament games played in 11th so far with each army. How popular is yours?
https://www.reddit.com/r/TheAstraMilitarum/s/0w70UuZY05is this more of a guard problem or a reddit problem?
>>98346843Someone stole 15 dollars from me and I winded up with an Ahriman in my pocket
>>98346854>Thousand Sons at 8th placewe're going to get absolutely fucking nuked in the balance pass, man
>>98346843>Has someone ever stolen anything warhammer related from you, or vice versa?i used to play steel legion at my flgs until my dudes started disappearing and they're not replaceable anymore
>>98346843Why is it "Deathskulls" and not "Deffskulz" anyway? Are they more articulate than the average ork?
>>98346868definitely reddit, the scenario of a mod seizing control of a chill sub reddit, and then power tripping, and banning anyone who doesn’t fall in line is common story on a lot of subreddits. this is a rare instance when a mod gets BTFO so bad they have to concede and the users rise up and dogpile the mod showing how no one actually likes reddit mods.
>>98346854>tyranids>tauHuh, I would have never guessed there were so many faggots playing comp.
Will the Emperor ever walk again?
>>98346878Sacrificing evasiveness for tankiness, emphasis on getting stuck in to melee, army rule where you can turn terrain into world shrines and use an upgrade tree to improve shrines based on how the game is going
>>98346880ive mainly been toying around with terminator and tzaangor spam so im sure I will be midly affected at best.
>>98346854Eldar buffs soon........
>>98346854>Necrons, Nids, Ultramarines, Tau, and Custodesdamn all my armies are feasting good, in b4 nerfs.
non-metallic metals are so interesting because it's so clearly a demonstration of mastery for the craft of painting but on the other hand it looks fucking awful
>>98346895because they loot enemies more than other klans, they often encounter the word “death” on many of the items looted like tanks, guns, and parchment that meks may train themselves to read in order to get a better understanding how to jury rig ‘umie parts to ork parts. this leads to them keeping the word “death” while other klans simply forget the loan word, and use “deff”. the “s” is kept because all orks are simply inconsistent on whether to use s or z (orks, goffs, kommandos vs boyz, freebooterz, nobz for instance).
>>98346916Probably nothing but point adjustments until the codex release. Which Im fine with, I like Windriders and Seer Council anyways. Armored war host and the rangers detachment pair well with both
>>98346868>major faction reddit"NOOOOO MY FAVORITE FACTION GOT NERFED AND ITS TRASH NOW IF YOU WIN WITH IT THEN YOU'RE CHEATING BAN BAN BAN BAN""THIS IS WHY WE HAVE FOUR SUBS RETARD">minor faction reddit"Our win rate is 35%""Again?"
Am I blind or are Rune Priests not a thing any more?
>>98346868I fucking despise guard players.Anyway, what are yall working on?Alterbating between some artillery and getting more recon cadians done.
>>98346970but they don't look like that
>>98346973Love the arty models. Got three myself and have managed to always bring at least one to a game. They aren't very good unfortunately.In other news, more boys have been added to the wip squad.
>>98346973Got a dogmata actually wanted a dialogus but w/e a dogmata is cool too, going to try painting it on the sprue since I keep being unreasonably irked by painting assembled models and having to navigate around the various arms and techno-bits.
>>98346973resin bootleg of lord marshall drieri like how all the paints in the blanche set are low key then the yellow is "dorns dehydrated piss"
>>98346973I feel like guard players are never just normal people, they're always some flavor of terminal autismhere's the last few units that need to be finished before I have a nice rounded army for 7th
>>98346973nearly done building my second saturnine dreadknight kitbash. got a couple parts to add, gotta smooth out the hammer etc.
Can loyalist marines fight and kill custodes and actually get away with it? Or are they considered traitors after that.
Let Chaos Idols take this thread!
>>98347033at the palace? traitors. anywhere else? if the loyalists win then they've proven they were ultimately correct.
>>98347033they let the lamenters, executioners and mantis warriors off the hook after they sided with a secessionist a penitent crusade will probably fix the problem
>>98347033The Minotaurs have done that already
>>98347033As a loyalist it should be their duty to put down those useless self entitled genetic fuckwits.They failed their one and only job of keeping the Emperor safe, and they've spent the next 10k years saying it was everyone else's fault that they fucked up.
>>98346868It is a guard problem.
>>98347046Custode bros....is this why they went shirtless? Out of shame? It was the Emperors fault. He should have been stronger and beaten Horus. They met on even ground and Horus beat the Emperor into a permanent coma
Do you think the amount of variation in the Necromundan regiments is in any way standard?
>>98346868Definitely a reddit issue, but he did admit he was wrong, so I'll at least give him that. Sperging out so hard over plastic army men that you need to issue a public apology in the first place though is fucking pathetic.
Painting some Sisters Repentia, my army’s main robe color is blue. Should I make their hoods blue and rags blue, or their hoods blue and their rags some other color? The official image on the website has black rags and red hoods, but I’m not sure about that.
>>98346854If I were to consider Agents not being an actual army and Deathwatch yet another Space Marine chapter, the least popular.
>>98347071>but he did admit he was wrongdoakes.pngWhen you get to coping about a 3mm difference between old and new guard base sizes you've lost any sort of defence to being rediculed
It's 7am and the kid living above have been discording with his friends since all night. I couldn't sleep at all but what do I blast the fucker with once he goes to sleep? I don't care if I don't sleep as well, my day is already ruined.
>>98347073jesus anon, please get a wet pallet also army cohesion is important, visually, so I'd just do em up how the rest of the army is
>>98346973Toiling away at work for now. Waiting til tomorrow afternoon so I can try to get to my LGS and grab some new paints so I can finally get these traitor guardsmen properly started. Gonna try the zenithal prime/contrast thing for most of them, minus the metal details probably.
>>98347035What's euth the word bearers when Bae is a member of the BLACKED Legion?
>>98347087Put you amps directly to the roof and blast ram ranch
>>98347083>correct basesFucks sake, I try to give this nigger every benefit of the doubt I can and he still manages to ruin it. Yeah, fuck that guy.
>>98347033>Did those Emperor's Children look gaudier than usual?
>>98347096It used to be only on the weekends but now that the schools are off this shit has been going for days and I just can't take it anymore. I tried yelling but he's obviously using headphones so doesn't hear shit. I'll play some music, then go have a talk with his parents. Holy fucking shit I'm mad.
>>98347083But the most based
>>98347108Tell his parents you can hear him ERPing with adult men. Problem solved.
Uh what did Dan Abnett mean by this bros
>>98347097he's also obsessed with banning "nazis" to the point of banning people that use WW2 german scale model parts to customize a leman russ.
>>98347033Depends on the circumstances.The Minotaurs, Dark Angels and Black Templars have fought and killed Custodes on numerous occasions. The Minotaurs were given a pass because they were on orders from the Lords of Terra.The Dark Angels were chasing after Cypher under the Imperial Palace. All of them died and the issue was dropped.The Black Templars were fucking pissed at a Custodian trying to give them Primaris marines. No idea what happened there, but they are still considered loyal.
>>98347130>he Black Templars were fucking pissed at a Custodian trying to give them Primaris marinesthey really are the chud marines
If I make some penitent engines using the screaming Sister models (which are normally used for mortifiers, since penitent engines get screaming men), is anyone going to complain? As in, I want an all-nun army, even down to the screaming tortured pilots, and the mortifiers using screaming men doesn't fit the aesthetic, but the pilot is the main way they're differentiated.
>>98347083>confirmation of correct basesUnironically what did he mean by this?
>>98346895They're Gulguls, the writers just translate it to English because it sounds better to audiences.
>>98346843made a khorne lord on bike from the champion on juggernaught pewter version back in the daykid stole it from my house
>>98347150Yeah 90% of players won't even know they're supposed to be gender segregated.

>>98347285>he doesn't know
>>98346843
>>98346973>Anyway, what are yall working on?Primed up a Chosen and Terminator squad for my Night Lords warband yesterday.
>>98347285Reasons why your army idea is bad:>New Space Marines Chapter: Shut up>Lost and Damned: It'd just be Guard, but with daemons instead of the biggest tanks, and you can already sort of run this with cultists and corrupted guards in CSM anyway>Dark Mechanicus: It'd just be Admech, but with spikes>Exodites: There is no possible gameplay gimmick they can do that regular Eldar can't, and their units all look identical to Eldar, but with dinosaur mounts>Corsairs: Again, there's nothing they can do that Eldar can't already do>Farsight Tau: Shut up>Hrud: Not a single person in the universe gives half a shit about the Hrud, and they're super ugly and complicated, so they'll never sell>Rak'gol: Same as the Hrud, but even worse>Men of Iron: There are already multiple "all of our units are robots and we're just a big stat check army" armies
>>98347350Space Marine Renegades led by a lost primarch with a space sharks index/upgrade sprue
>>98347046>They failed their one and only job of keeping the Emperor safeThis argument has always been retarded for me. As opposed to the Marine's one and only job of STAYING LOYAL?!If the Custodes had to go shirtless out of shame, the space marines had to contantly wear blaring buttplugs in the open for the fuckup they did.

I have listened the audiobooks of Dante and Devastation of Baal and heard Darkness in Blood continues off Baal, is it a decent read/listen?
>>98346854I'm feeling comfy my GSC bros
>>98347419Sounds gay af
>>98347110Which gsc models are these? Are they necromunda related?
>>98347091>that airbrushed zenithal Looks a bit rough m8
>>98347465How much of a secondary can you actually be? It's hive secundus malstrain stealer heads on hive scum bodies. The heads come with the genestealer sprue to convert your gangers.
>>98347470It's just spraycans
>>98347476I've never noticed them before, tbf I only started collecting gsc at the end of last year. I'm not familar with necromunda related stuff
>>98347500Fair enough, I did the same with a spray can and it came out a bit better. Seems to be worse through my airbrush atm
>>98347087Or you know, be an adult and knock on their door to let them know they make too much noise too soon?
>>98346973>what are you working onI'd be working on my artillery batteryIF I HAD ONE
DED THRED
>>98346854SoB, Guard, craftworld, and agents. Yeah pretty bleak. I play 4 armies and managed to be in the bottom half of popularity for all 4 of them. Where do I pick up my contrarian of the year award?I'm not too worried though, I'm more of a collector/hobby person and don't play very often anyway, and when I do I can just try to find a game with someone else running bad stuff too. It's fun to follow these trends and appreciate the data, but I'm not going to worry about it. I trust GW to do cool stuff with these factions when their codex rolls around...whenever that may be.
>>98346854League of Virginn in the top half of the popularity chart is a bit of a surprise. They're steadily moving up
If you're playing Disruption and your opponent is Purge, your primary mission is to....kill stuff. This doesn't seem very good. They're going to be built to slug it out since they built for Purge, while you built to trap objectives with action monkey units. This seems like a bad matchup, and I don't know why GW would give an objective to Disruption that plays into what Purge wants to be doing.
>>98347795Tournament participation isn't the same things as popularity.
>>98347820The problem with disruption is you can't really optimize a list to play all 5 of their missions at the same time. Like that one wants durable bricks to sit on NML objectives and survive while some of the others incentivize fast MSU or maximum damage.
>>98347820It should be reasonably simple to pick up kills against a disposition that is forced to engage in order to fulfil its own missions, and imo that fits a theme of disrupting enemy plans. The bigger problem is how few vp are available elsewhere, and how purge scores more for doing the same things over objectives. Even without the 8vp bonus for taking your home at the end of the battle, purge wins without doing any purging.
>>98346973Finally painted this.It's sat in my to do pile for a decade and no longer has rules.The last few months I'd decided I would paint it, but was undecided if I should do it craftworld colours or as a corsair craft.
>>98346973Started working on a Kataphron servitor for my collage entry but it's not even fully basecoated yet so instead here's one I finished some time ago.
>>98346973Slowly chipping away at raptors.
How did things end up so badly for these guys?They had the best weapons, the best armor, and the best psychic powers.Now there are only 300 Marines left, and they are forced to poach recruits from other Chapters.
>>98347894That reminds me. Anyone have that guide Black Legion anon did for the black armor?
>>98347901
>>98346973working on my farsight.
>>98347913thanks!
Rate my list so far, still need to build the tank, kasrkins, command squad, and valkyrie (and all the heros/characters minus the commisar)For my sentinel I was wondering what I shoudl give it for a weapon.My idea was for the main line to be the tank, heroes, and command/shock squads. While I have the valkyrie, sentinel, kasrkins, and castellan all on their own "flanking/objective" squad, with the Valk and the sentinel providing support to either side should they need it. So I'd want my sentinel to be able to provide ranged support. I was thinking the lascannon would be good, but I also like the idea of plasma, but I don't want to fuck up the roll and screw myself over. What do you guys think?Also I know this is only 1k but I need to finish my pile of shame lol
>>98347899Losing to the Wolves traumatized them.
>>98346868I'm afraid that the two may be inseparable.
>>98347899Custodes stole their niche as the most special Marines and no-one cares about the silver medal.>>98347913The Rentry is back up and has a handful of guides from when people were contributing including, at least, the text of that one. https://rentry.org/40kg-guides
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98347820In the couple of games I've played, Disruption into Purge seems almost like a rogue/anti-meta pick. Purge is going to score the 5 vp for killing a condemned unit every turn, but that's all they're ever gonna be able to score; while you have unlimited scoring potential by killing more stuff. This also could be because my Disruption detachment is Kult of Speed, which has no problems bringing enough heavy firepower to maul shit.
>>98347851I think your images would look better for your /tg/ audience if you turned off the AI upscale. I think I'd prefer grainy to blurslop
>>98346973Started my painboy with the guys last night. No pics but the base coating is all done. Reposting my Boyz for now
>>98347899marinefags are like women in their hatred towards short men
>>98347894that's good shit man. very clean
>>98347952What units in kult of speed are good at killing shit? I just see a bunch of buggies that hit on 5s with fuck all firepower
>>98347899Ward overwanked them too much, and nobody likes a Mary Sue. Also the baby carrier model stopped anyone from taking them seriously.Custodes at least have the interesting flaw of being arrogant pricks. GK were just "good at everything" and the community obviously got tired of that schtick pretty fast.The best thing about Grey Knights is their helmet design.
>>98347958I'd say tsons / admech bro knows what he's doing
>>98347031inb4 on refresh they vault dreadknights and just give you psychic telemon because reasons

>>98347977>Custodes at least have the interesting flaw of being arrogant prickslmao
>>98347950How long have you been feeling it for now, deldar bro?
>>98347988Is that because he's a superior painter to you?

>>98347979No need to defend your girlfriend from valid feedback, anon.
>>98347932Pls respond ;_;
>>98347999No, hope that helps
>>98347958none of my images are AI upscaled, if something is blurry it's because it's out of focus
>>98347984It's something anon.Paint when you want to paint. It's a hobby, not an obligation
>>983479901 year, 8 months, 15 days, 20 hours, 37 minutes, and 13 seconds
>>98348008Its for the collage but I want to get this shit done soon
>>98346973I should have finished some Marines ages ago to start on my Orks but I lost all motivation.I'll try to paint something this week .
>>98347980Like it or not the dreadknight is the most iconic thing about grey knights. It might change in looks but it is never going away.
>>98348004You have some sort of native upscaling turned on on your camera/phone. That sort of blurring is characteristic of AI, not normal phone blurring.You do you my man, it just ruins all your images is all, of what I'm sure are very well painted and attractive models, which come out looking like Grok dunked them in Vaseline.
>>98346973Built my Armageddon ancient, trying to add some more character to my guys by making him read more as a veteran.
>>98348012Looks good so far

>>98346973kind of rushing up these diggaboyz and their handler. I want to get them done before the weekend because I want to have a clear table for when I start painting the gorkanaut for the collage. >>98346992oh my gork, those are so sexy, especially the striped pants. how’d you go about making them so clean?
>>98348023aight thanks, I'll try opencamera and see if it makes a difference
>>98348050Noice. I look forward to beautiful models
>>98348052bcause you've got none to post yourself?
I like orks :D
>>98348058le le ecks dee XDwhy did you have to go and paint your orks blue, i need more goff bros in this general
>>98346973pathfinders
Hmm, so if I want to play Recon, I have to take Chorus. This could be a problem, since all Chorus does is give jump pack infantry the ability to give enemy units +3inch detection range. When you compare that to something like Librarius Conclave (same 1dp cost, and same buffing one specific unit type theme), you feel a bit silly playing this detachment. So if you don't use jump infantry, or you want your detachment to actually give you a cool special rule, you don't really want to play Recon with SoB. Too bad.So moving on to Disruption, we find a similar issue. There is only one option for Disruption, and it is a detachment that specifically references Sacresants and Paragons. If you want your detachment to give you a good special rule, you have to use these specific units, and if you aren't using them, your detachment doesn't do much. Now, obviously these units are good and most people use them so this isn't an issue in practice, but you see the principle of the matter: you only have one choice, and that one choice referencing specific units is potentially limiting to players, like with Chorus.Ok, so moving on to Prio Assets. Oh look, only one choice again. I'm noticing a theme. But at least this detachment is generically good and is already popular, and doesn't reference specific units. So at least this doesn't have the listbuilding issue the other two have.Penitent Host is by far the most restrictive listuilding detachment since Penitent keyworded units are only several in the book, but at least they give you two other options if you want Hold. Now let's compare to marines. Oh wow, they have 22 detachments! wow! And with no less than 3 options for each disposition too! And the vast majority of them have no restrictions, they're just generically good. Hmm, must be nice.I haven't looked through other books yet, are any other factions limited in choices? Anyone else not able to play a certain disposition because you just don't have a suitable detachment?

>>98348062I think black is boring desu. when I’m done with my gorkanaut, I am planning on painting some ork boyz like pic related, and their color scheme has a lot of black in it.
>>98348068there’s definitely been really bad official artwork made for 40K, but having this be on your starter box set is just insane.
>>98348068
>>98348083>painting boyz like guardbased blood axes enjoyer
>>98348072don't forget that firestorm assault is only 2dp and is strictly better than bringers of flame for less cost. things are a bit fucked right now balance wise, a lot of factions are in rough shape. right now necrons, nids, marines, and orks have plenty of options and are generally performing the best and are popular
>>98346868>power crazed mod backs down, issues formal apology and becomes an heroguardbros, this one feels oddly familiar

>/40kg/ hates Mikhail Savier nowWhat the fuck happened?
>>98348118john blanche & wayne england general, newfag
>>98348098They tried.
>>98348121They did?
>>98348068Seeing this makes their "no ai" stance seem completely idiotic. Any picture generator would create a better space marine in epic battle pose. This is deliberately bad.
>>98348126you don't have an artistic bone in your body and you need to stop commenting on art like you know the first thing about it because I wouldn't give you a colouring book and crayons
>>98348083>I think black is boring so I'm gonna paint my orks black I'm confused
>>98348072Some armies suck at certain dispositions regardless of detachment. Marines aren't one of them. You're going to have to wait for new codexes to get the wider range of detachment options.

>>98348126>Any picture generator would create a better space marine in epic battle poseMay I see it?

They are stalking you.
>>98348155stalk this dick, furfag
>>98348155It works with the wolf but it doesn't with the marines, except the one on the left where it's alright.Still a good idea and otherwise great execution, 'ery noice
I'm kinda surprised GW is allowing its staff to officially Kitbash TOW kits with 40k kits
>>98348166I'm not surprised, the Cites of Smegmar range was clearly designed to be fantasy guardsmen, like sigmarines are fantasy space marines.
>>98348149I think it's a modified zorn palette. He did a few paint sets with army painter, so just check those for appropriate colors.
>>98348158>stalk this dick, furfagThat was the last thing Anon said before they ripped off his dick and turned him into a woman.
>>98348135it’s kind of hard to see in that photo, but the 122nd cadian only wears black armor, and a red shoulderpad, then the clothing is a grey/blue camo pattern which gives it a lot more interest.
>>98348155>>98348179Put the trip back on.
>>98348166Why would that be surprising in the least
>>98348187nta but because kitbashing is a shadow of what it was
>>98348169That AoS though, so it's the same "studio" making both games.HH and TOW are SDS games where there was that clear artificial wall between crossover
>>98348178volume 1 looks like the best of the lot, i might get it and just use thodr paints for a mini. volumes 3 and 4 look like they have a bit of everything
>>98348166>Buy twice the amounts of kitsWhy would GW prevent this?Why do you think GW nuked the Samguinary Guards remake and released pic rel not too long before?
>>98347940>>98348155cringe
>>98348180fucking hell is this from an old codex, like 3rd/4th edition?
>>98348166This is just a teaser to gauge whether or not they should make a full chinese pandering faction for 40k as well
>>98348179>he believes men become women when their dicks are chopped offno better than a tyranid
>>98347205Warp lightning over Caliban Green over a purple basecoat.I was improvising with almost every boy, just took out all of my greens and mixed and matched. So I'm not sure the method was the exact one I described. The first and last layer were purple and warp lightning for sure.>>98348048Thanks, anon.The pants you mean? I didn't, they aren't. It's just the distance is enough to make it look ok. Which was the intention.
>>98348072If you compare your faction to marines, you'll always find it's unfair. People just sort of nod and stay quiet when marines have every toy, twice as many models, twice as many rules, twice as many characters, a buffet of detachment and disposition choices, etc. They account for as much sales as every other faction combined or something crazy like that, so it's just the way it is. Marines are always good, they always have a reasonable win rate, and they always have new stuff coming while every other faction is in between marine releases. It's just the nature of the game. People who deny this are marine players, although most marine players I know don't deny it they just sort of shrug and say yeah and enjoy it, which is the right response. As a word of advice, stop comparing whatever your faction is to marines, compare it to every other faction instead. You'll find that everyone is in a similar boat at one point or another. There are one or two exceptions, like Necrons have also been a top army for many years now and also have a ton of rule choices and models etc, but they're just that: an exception. We are playing the space marine game, with special guests: other factions. It's just the way it is.
>>98348205I'd buy it ngl
>>98347973Deffkopta bricks mostly. Wazboms and Dakkajets if you're feeling cheeky but lmao aircraft. The sniper buggies are great for removing tech pieces. The squigbuggies can remove a model or two pretty much uncontested with indirect a turn and also slow shit down
guise do you have any ready to go fun/meme armies up to 1500 points? looking to play with a fren on tabletop sim and we don't care about the meta or to win, just something funi
>>98347973The shokkjump dragsta and deff koptas will do your killing. You can make a deffkilla war trike with some bikers kind of a bully piece. Wazdakka is a huge treat too. He can zip around and kill quite a bit.
>>98348253If you want a quick fun game, don't play 1.5k
>>98348101So does GW just not want to admit how badly Marines won by? Or are they expecting backlash when the definitely not rigged results show more Marines?
>>98348300Ngl I just want to see the reveals
>>98348232Of course SM is the top selling faction...because GW mostly makes new SM models. If they want other factions to sell make discount boxes and change the rules for dogshit datasheets so more then 25% of any given faction is actually playable.
>>98348118He said women only love men who beat them and Twitter's having a nonstop melty.
>>98348264makes sense. any funny armies up to 1k points?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAfz3wSv4QEAbsolutely based, fuck reddit and fuck guard
>>98348319So Dustin moved on from D&D and is now playing 40k?
Uh, how are they previewing the Ork Codex on Wednesday if the release date hasn't even been announced yet?
>>98348324>beard gone>katie gone>ed was briefly thereis it over?
>>98348315I'd say the most fun is to be had in narrative scenario, so that depends on that.You can have great fun with a couple of squads on one side fighting against an endless horde on the other.If you want a straight up mirror match, just limit strong units and ban vehicles that aren't transports.As people will surely point out the game isn't really made for small armies anymore, so unless you're using the combat patrol format you're gonna have to improvise.Sometimes having multiple 500pts games is more fun than a single 1kpts game. Keep it simple
>>98348314wtf I thought that your average GW employee are fifth columnist marxists who donate to BLM. I guess there are a few Based ones afterall.
Sexodites...
>>98346992What colors were used on the bigboss in the back?
>>98346992very dark red undercoat. Heavy drybrush of dark sand, plaguebearer flesh, then caliban green, ogryn camo, krieg khaki.Something like that.
>>98348371I've never wanted to see a female model in a faction so bad
>>98347851I guess I know what I am adding to my Admech next. Bro, your pictures keep pushing me to add new stuff to the armies we have in common. But damn do your minis look so much better.
>>98348118>>98348336I checked xcan and didn’t see anything or failed at searching.I didn’t check poosky yet.Any proofs that this is blowing up?>>98348166They’re trying to get the trench crusaders back in the warhammer ecosystem.
>>98348180I really like those old at ease cadians.I have one for a printed pedestal to be painted as a stone grey or bronze statue.I’m not sure.Does anybody know if stls for the first metal cadians and kneepad ones exist having been made in that pose?>>98348203Weren’t those metal at ease cadians a limited giveaway or warhammer world exclusive? Is there a site that documents publication history and lore of gw model releases?
>>98348327It was over when Bone left 5 years ago. Basically, the entire channel is replaced by new people at this point.
>>98348466>Any proofs that this is blowing up?You are too gullible for this place.
>>98348205I think it would do better than Cathay to be honest.But really do we have any actual residents of China here able to comment on the warhammer scene in China if it exists or not and what general Chinese nerd opinions are on warhammer 40k and Cathay?
>>98348479Yes, they exist
>>98348491I figured that would be the case.I will admit I trust you anons more than reviewers on other social medias because there is no money to be earned from the clickbaits.Even if you guys aren’t trustworthy on warhammer 40k opinions.
>>98348502I know TOW has had some tournaments in Guangzhou last year, so there is at least some official Warhammer being played in China but I don't think GW has any official stores like they do in South Korea and Japan
>>98348507Can you share those files with gofile if they do exist? Don’t post the actual website links for the models if they’re in the purple site as James is watching.
>>98348502I know a couple Mongolians but no Chinese sadly.
>>98348205Sounds dumb and made up. You goofs don't have to read into it so much.
>>98348314Thats so fuckin funny lol
>>98348513Guess I won’t be playing warhammers in the celestial kingdom then.>t. Has family in Chongqing and Shanghai
>>98348489One thing I don't miss are Beard's death metal vocal intros, I'd rather listen to some Cannibal Corpse than it and I hate the genre.
>>98348542God they were so fucking bad. Sucks he left but I'm glad I don't have to hear that anymore.
>>98346815>Barely anyone plays>Why?Despite being sold from second edition onwards they were barely an army for most of the games history and only available in plastic (relatively) recently
>>98348632They're also a little harder to /yourdudes/ than marines or guard. They don't have a plethora of third party bitz yet and the Ecclesiarchy is really only interpreted one way in their model range despite having different local customs depending on the world. I think in time those will both change and if you want to put in the effort now you can probably do it, but it's still a hurdle to really make them your own if that's your intent with collecting an army.
>For one pain token, you can charge in a turn in which you advanced>For one CP, you can charge in a turn in which you disembarked>Raider has an additional special rule that gives wyches a 6" disembarkation distanceThis legitimately means they have a charge threat range of 26+3d6 inches. And you can do it with other units too since the charge after disembark is a detachment thing not a wych thing, so suddenly Incubi+Malys and other such things suddenly have more options.Seems cool, so far I'm starting with this.https://www.newrecruit.eu/app/list/beh8E
Why does /40kg/ hate guard so much? Is it just because of a few Redditors?
>>98348695It has been the latest faction to shit on after spacewolves.The catalyst was the yarrick reveal with no steel legion.That and it may be teens spending their summers here showing they aren’t very bright.Or it could be guard players pretending to be stupid marine player trolls. I can’t prove it.
>>98348695/40kg/ hates everyone. If you notice an especial hatred it's because you're thin-skinned.
>>98348695Eldarfags
>>98348695guardfags are consistently the whiniest faggots in the hobby along with eldarfags, they deserve the hate
>These clowns keep shouting that they bring cum to me, I don't know if it's a skit or if they're just mental.
>>98348695I just hate HFY fags and guard "players" make up a good chunk of the demographic
>>98348695It's the SoB/TAU homosexual cabal
>>98348695I don't hate the guard, I hate guardfags
>>98348695They're an even higher concentration of "The Imperium are the good guys, actually" players than the Space Marines, and act morally superior about it because they aren't space marines players.Also they expect marines level kit support somehow which no other non-marines army gets. They will get six new kits in an edition and bitch that it wasn't seven.
Mornin’ /40kg/.I’ve been hoarding guard stls and I’m wondering if the heavy weapon teams should have “turret” heavy weapons or underslung held heavy weapons like pic related.I like both.Source is anvilindustry.If turret I might have to do some stl hunting again and then modifications to make hwt hands like those from anvil work as the hwt base sizes have changed.
>>98346868Eceleb faggottry, now in my plastic soldier pushing simulator too.
>>98348758I apologize for posting at a bad time.
>>98348695
>>98346854Yes
>>98348755are the imperium not the good guys?
>>98348737I like guard because the idea of a bunch of regular dudes with shitty laser guns taking down a warp demon/CSM like a swarm of ants, losing like a bunch in the process but still “winning” is extremely satisfying.Hopefully that isn’t too HFY because they are annoying I agree
>>98348779Yes, but also no.
>Xenofags are annoying>Imperiumfags are annoying>Chaosfags are annoyingMaybe the real lesson is that all 40kfags are annoying
>>98348769Warhammer 40kfags in general are basically the horse cartoon fans of today.Im sure I was like that image described as a teenager.I’m sorry lads.>that gmod imageI regret not finding the means to grab all the gmod models 40k sfm animators used like sodaz before gw started going after them.Would love them posted here.And I swear I think they were used for the angels of death teasers and some even in the official animation for that angels of death 40k animation gw out on their warhammer plus thing.
>>98348779It's 40k. There are no good guys beyond small individuals who get crushed between the gears of war.
>>98348799>Online 40k fans spend their time writing OC lore about their favorites (fanfics), thinking of cool battlws with other factions (shipping), and constantly argue about which faction (horse) is bestOh God
>>98348792Pretty much.But also keep in mind that this place in particular is full of contrarians and people with personality disorders, so everything is cranked up to 11 here. The 40k fanbase as a whole, in real life, have been fine the vast majority of the time in my experience, which is a lot since I worked at a store and attend tournys and stuff. The people who take their faction too seriously or have some outstanding personality issue is like one in 10 or one in 20. But here, those same people account for most posts, since they can. In other words, the people who are the problem, post here a lot.
what is it about Eldar superiority that causes so much monkeigh seethe?
>>98348779They’re not the good guys. They’re the lesser evil but still evil against bigger evils.I like to see the imperium’s state as inevitable even if the Horus heresy never went down.Think military juntas that get put in place due to emergencies and then extended until it is a full blown military dictatorship.Correct me if my fluff understanding is wrong, but wasn’t the emperor having the imperium as a military dictatorship so he could rush the galactic reconquista then fix the government with help from gorillaman?Then horsey hearsay happened and everything went bad and military dictatorship remains so and gets worse?
>>98348819What makes you think Eldar are superior at anything?
>>98348823Nobody knows what the Emperor's actual plan was because GW has rewritten it multiple times.
>>98348779They are, the opposite is some retarded shitposting.
>>98348779My brother in christ. If the Space Waffen SS were fighting to defend humanity against daemons that ate souls and green skinned barbarians that wanted to rape you and eat you, in that order, YES THEY ARE THE GOOD GUYS.
>>98348810Yes anon.It is most terrible.A reminder that is most grim.Dark even.>>98348816>the people who are the problem, post here a lot.I felt that. I usually use this place to ask stupid questions relating to the hobby or warhammer and to be more authentic in being able to express myself and opinions.But you know how that goes.
>>98348803Nah guilliman is a good guyAnd the salamanders
>>98348833ironic
>>98348695>"realistic" army in a space fantasy setting>historical (read: world wars) aesthetics >the human soldier of the worst regime >not popular enough for marine support but enough for more than one themethere's nothing specifically wrong about any of the above, but it's a magnet for a very specific stereotype of fan that's unfortunately way too common amongst the guard>waacfag that doesn't realise he's a waacfag>annoying counter-politics keyboard warrior >delusions of self-importance and hypocritical expectations >completely devoid of creativity and imagination
>>98348834moral relativist fuck off
>guiez there are no good or evil people in 40K!!
>>98348826SU-PERIOR AT DY-ING!!
Eldar are objectively the good guys of 40k
>>98348842This meme should be done for all the armies of 40k.My pc is busted and I don’t like pixlr on the phone so I can’t do it. I don’t have the funny bones either.
did you know the tau found a dreadnought that was older than their civilization?
>>98348842I’m a newfag to 40k and want to avoid the stereotypes like in your picture. What do I do?
>>98348850>eldarfag's faces when you try to talk to them about the billions of humans who they murdered to save a single eldar life (he was killed the next day by a ork rokkit).
>>98348859There is a reason why it's not done for all other armies, the guardfags are specifically bad.The only other variant is for taufags who are just leftypol guardfags at the end of the day and both sides refuse to admit they're more similar than they're different.
>>98348830Fair enough.What is the most inconsistently written character in 40k?I would think it is perty but I think his appeal to me is more so how he could have been better handled as a dark reflection of gorillaman.Yes I think he is supposed to be the reflection of guilliman. Not Dorn.
>>98348859There are a few for other armies. Mainly SM and Tau. Funny thing is the marine one was made first but it was really half assed and that guard one was made by an ass blasted SMfag.
>>98348864every monkeigh life in the galaxy would not be worth the eternal soul of the lowest, most craven deldar scumTMD
>>98348865Wrong. Marine one was made first.
>>98348862just don't be obnoxious
>>98348862Just mind manners and maintain composure at the lgs.I am not sure if I have achieved the above to be honest.But the lgs I am at is pretty cool and the community outside the tournament side looks alright.I haven’t seen the tournament days.It makes me fearful of being the bad warhammer 40k player and makes me shower, shave and apply deodorant to my pits back and belly.
>>98348836Robot Girlyman bombing Monarchia was pretty fucked, even if the big E told him to
I feel like painting something today.ECNLDGOr collage entry
>>98348792xenosfags are annoying to Imperiumfags from perceived expectation that single army of theirs should get the support the entire SM section gets Imperiumfags are annoying due to the largest fanbase, which includes most tourist. Mixed with equal attention cakes which often could've slide if not for the timingChaosfags either complain that they're not equal in rules or that the narrative sidetracks from them only to act snobby when it comes back on top of the internal splits on which part of the fuckery should have the focus
>>98348873nope!
>>98348881Yep! And I know because I was the one who made it lol
chaos chads stay winning
>>98348884Delusional lmao
>>98348880It's funny how you had to lie about the xenosfags to pretend the sides are all equally bad in their own way.
>>98348888persecution complex on display
>>98348489Miss me BoneMiss me ChefMiss me BeardMiss me KatieChannels deadSimple as
>>98348886Nope. You can keep replying to me saying its not true but I know its true because I originated it. Thats why the guard one is so detailed because I made the marine one it just had that drawing of those dudes with chapter symbols and the primaris helmet and a single line of text.
>>98348880Case in point.
>>98348850Eldar are good guys because all they do is job.
>>98348870Got the sm one so I can see please? It might be one I made a long time ago when I had too much time as I was looking for a job.Tau one too? I didn’t make that.I remember making some but I got a temp ban for posts containing those images being low quality.So maybe they worked.
>>98348842Wasn’t this one a black Templar edit first? They’re the most obnoxious SM players
>>98348850>>98348864>>98348872Easily solved.
>good>eviloh man...
>>98348892Literally noone but a strawman would ever argue that any faction would get as much shit as all marines combined get.
>>98348878Didnt really have a choiceBig emps is in charge
>>98348899 me>>98348900I made a 40k space marine edit but I did the meme where it has so much text that it was like a “lefty meme.”Brevity is the soul of wit and soul of humor and I am lacking both.:(
>>98348905surprisingly accurate
Exodite supremacy!
>>98348908xenosfags aren't very literate
How would (You) make vehicle heavy lists not an absolute chore to play into>Flanking rules>Random damage tables, vehicles should actually degrade with damageI want to be able to blow a Knight's arm off, the idea that a tank at 1 wound is 90% as powerful as a tank at full health is retarded
>never bought a tantalusis there a good scan somewhere?
>>98348864>Eldar fans when you ask them to list even a single important thing their faction has done in the paat twenty years
>>98348921Something about targeting the same side of a vehicle or tank do more damage to it, like degrading armor plating. Armor saves have to be rolled to prevent the armor from breaking and that side taking more damage.
>>98348859Another anon proposed this but it went nowhere
>>98348888perceived doesn't mean its the actual one but i had to step away and lost my chain of thought only to leave it as is when i clicked postreal is that they're whiny when their badguy status gets obviously snatched by chaosfags or that they're worfed again, Most of factions will be snobby about not being the imperium and crying about refreshes/expansions (which chaosfags also engage in even if on much smaller scale) which even if sometimes deserved is obnoxious. There are some that cry about broken rules getting nerfed so they don't totally outgimmick other armies that also occupy their niche.
>>98348926>doing thingsngmi
>>98348929Post the Eldar one, I can't find it
>>98348934I didn't know an Eldar one existed
>>98348929>guard make their own wordswordswords response image>its in a totally different tone and doesn't have any jokeslmao
>>98348929Admech one by chance or does it have to be made?
if you were isekaid into 40k, how fast would you make a deal with Tzeench?
>>98348942>guardNah this was clearly done by an eldarfag
>>98348944I think I’d pic nurgle because he might be closest to a loving chaos god.If I did slaanesh I would probably do it for the sloth laziness thing and I’m not sure he he supports that.I’d be the great avatar of doing nothing. Not sure of the winning part.
>>98348859The reason it doesn't exist for every army is because it reflects a real world phenomena. Guardfags look and talk like that IRL
>>98348943The only ones I know exist is the Tau and the Guard one
>>98348944Never. I love the Big E and would never betray him.
>>98348942and you know a guardfag made it how exactly?
I have no work today.Do I work on models or post about warhammer 40k here or look at video slop?
>>9834895290% of 40k players look like that thoughbeit, including you
>>98348959Work on models and shitpost on here.
>>98348954Well if you find the space marine one I’ll apologize for making it and then maybe buy the stahly charts and share them here so you lads can compare paints for your warhammer 40k armies.Assuming there is no way in the pdfs for the doucheland copyrightgestapo to find me.
>>98348964Norwood is an almost exclusive guard trait
>>98348968Post your hairline
>>98348965Okay I’ll assemble a plastic kit.
>>98348970Post pics when done anon-kun
>>98348957>"Actually the Imperium is slowly dying"Only guardfags take offence at that. Marine piggies only care about marines, Admech players are all trannies, same as Sisters players
>>98348974Valrak is the world's biggest marinefag and he does everything you say guardfags do.
>>98348974Bro I’m a guardfag I know the imperium is dying lmao. Who takes offense to that?
Uh, what’s an imperial guard? You guys mean Astrum Militarum?
>>98348992What is Astrum? There isn't a single GW army with Astrum in their name...
>>98348922https://gofile.io/d/cPM8bq
>>98348779If you're human the Imperium is likely your best bet but they're not good by any stretch. They are definitely the protagonist faction.There is a decent argument that Exodites and Harlequins are the closest to good guys that exist but if you're human that's not a great fit for you.Tau do dumb shit like mind control their own allies with pheromones or do mass sterilization campaigns for the inferior races that join them.Eldar are pretty racist but Exodites literally never leave their planets or care about other people's business and the clowns spend half their time putting on plays for the various eldar factions and the rest of their time is split between fighting chaos and defending the black library.I'd also include craftworlds here but they don't really care if their population takes up piracy as a hobby but that's still kind of low on the evil scale compared to most factions.
Are there 2v2 matches in 40K tabletop? I’d love to play one of those
>>98348068I swear the marines in the bottom left and right are reused from other official art where they're both Ultras but I can't find the sources
>>98348974>Xenofag calling anyone else's playerbase troonsLmao
>>98349024The source is your ass!
Are ork boys really t5? Everything s4 wounds them on 5's now, which is lot of stuff. This is kind of a big deal
>>98348972It’s not a 40k model it is a wga mauler I plan to use as a centaur rsv proxy.In retrospect I should not have attached the cannon at the front and gone for an .50 cal attachment at the cupola.I might buy a caliper to measure to make compatible bits if I don’t want to use the damned soldier on top.
>>98349022Officially I dont think so but fuck it why not?
>>98349029>anyone who's mean to be is a xenosfag
>>98349024Did you check 9th edition space marine codex cover? I think they’re familiar but I’m not sure about the being ultras that much.
>>98348862Don't be retarded.
>>98349029literally rent free lmao
>>98349003are these not proxies?
>>98349022Yes, you control 1k points and your teammate controls 1k points
The only xenofags I like are Ork players
>>98349065there's also a scan of the thing, or at least a more faithful copy of it, thrown along
>>98349003How did you post this link? When I want to post one by the time it reaches 90 the captacha expires and it freezes at 92%
>>98348921not being able to split fire with weapons unless it's explicitly stated on each profile would be nice. also some guns must split fire if they're mounted in clearly opposite directions.
>>98349024Not an Ultra and not reused BUT very similar (and he drew the boltgun too long again LOL)
>>98349072Who asked?
>>98346868It’s mostly Guardtism at fault here, but Reddit as a platform allows these faggots to have a modicum of power over what content is seen or discussed.
>>98349078I prefer faithful copies over my stl models.I’m not sure where to find a complete archive of faithful copies of every resin model forgeworld made. Would love to know.>>98349090>too longMore like too thin.I think the default boltgun should have been shorter and the bolt rifle being the sniper variant. The heavy bolt rifle just never looked right to me and auto bolt rifle should have been what the heavy bolt rifle was to be.Bolt pistols are fine. Needs a holster designed to be a mechanism that swaps mag so marine only needs one hand to do it with melee weapon hand still able to be used in combat.
>>98348921When GW changed from letting you blow weapons off or mobility kill vehicles the wounds causing degredation thing was supposed to fix that but instead they invented this magical stratagem called machine spirit resurgent that turns off vehicles' damage taken modifiers so I don't believe GW will ever write a rule that makes a knight actually degrade until it dies.
>>98349126>Reddit as a platform allows these faggots to have a modicum of power over what content is seen or discussed.No shit. Almost like that's the purpose of Reddit and the same for all sub reddits, damn fuck.
>>98346868>guard problem or a reddit problemThe only times when they aren't one and the same is when it comes to /pol/posting.
>>98348921Toughness and Wounds have to go back down. Especially for vehicles with invuls. Why the fuck does a devilfish have fucking 14 wounds??????
>>98349072awww, I like (You) too :D
>>98346868It is a bit of both but really it is hard to tell which is the bigger culprit.I blame Reddit more for being a means for the worst to have an atom of power to abuse to compensate for their problems in real life.Then there is guard autism in being so devoted to the guard that they become radical supporters of it and I assume the mods ban anyone who disagrees because they can’t take opposing opinions or can’t take being called out on their bad behavior or all of them and more.Not gonna lie I think I’d be like a Reddit mod if I had an ounce of power quickly.Makes me wonder if I ever should post my warhammer 40k models on other social medias because if wind is caught about having any association with this site I’d be in deep shit.Probably not as bad as the critter conflicts creator but still would have impact.At least I can blame stupid things I’ve said and done on depression and being young and dumb and autistic.
>>98349144Well you see Cruddace likes C'tan so he came in a few years ago and demanded they be made indestructible, and we've been slowly trying to frog boil him into having them be balanced.Any other action would cause him to come back and demand their survivavility be doubled again.
>>98348799>>98348810don’t forget >making shitty crossovers for other fictional universes.>bringing up 40K in any discussion no matter how out left field it is.
>>98348879Why do you have so many chaos armies? anyway, go for a fat fuck death guard for the heavy collage.
>>98348936The Eldar one was just the five Craftworld logos on shits and one sentence:"I really want to fuck an elf"
>>98349167I love how a year later nobody realized this guy was AI generated
This is what they took from you
>>98349008The best situation a Human can be in for 40k is on a remote unreachable planet a forgotten corner of the galaxy where Humans and Exodites settled together after the Fall of the Eldar and collapse of the DAOT, since the Eldar will keep it from turning into an industrial hellhole and at worst there may come times when you're told not to have kids in order to keep the planetary population stable.The pros of course being that you live on a paradise planet with beautiful immortal neighbors who you run Dinosaur farms with.
>>98349199It’s been a year already and he is AI?Proofs please? I am surprised nobody has photoshopped him into warhammer 40k outfits.I saw one for the doorbell guy.
little lord's hiding place got squished when the dreadknight showed up.
>>98349222Not cool :(

>>98349677>I was not the other anonI don't care, you called people lorelets, which means you both agreed with the other anon and claimed you knew "lore" better.Nobody argued that terra wasn't a mess, you were specifically asked about the comparison to a daemon world.Don't be a daft cunt, either pull out the receipts or take the L.
>>98349677 me>>98349670I remember mention of Xenos slavers and daemon cultists a long time ago which is why I said terra was a shithole like a daemon world.But it would be nice to see some crumbs of UW fluff that said terra was just a mad max world with scattered civilizations.

>>98349337>practically a daemonworld in awfulnessThe Age of Strife on Terra was like Mad Max. Endless deserts. Daemonworlds are literally hell. Think the end of Event Horizon.

>>98349688Having demonic cultists and occasional xenos raids isn't Daemon world territory. That's like a Tuesday for half the systems in the imperium. We have actual demon worlds in the setting. Namely every planet in the eye of terror (aka the Eldar croneworlds).Stop defending the garbage take. It's the reason we have such garbage discourse on the internet these days.>>98349704Depends on your army but probably something big. I was able to get a tank-light 3000pts CWE army into a large carrying case on 4 magnetic trays but there's 0 chance a 3000 point DE army with all the boats would fit.All bananas could be like 2 trays.

>>98349732I didn’t see your post until mine was made at >>98349740 the page refreshed.I get it man. This is an oops my bad thing. But somewhere in outcast dead I got it. It’s been a long time and I think that book is of dubious canonicity like so many hh books of its time around its release now.

>>98349704If it's a fragile army like necrons then you need to magnetize the bases and carry them in a case with magnetized shelving. The brand doesn't matter so long as you have enough room to fit them and they won't get jostled in-transit.Everything else can go in shoeboxes, plastic containers etc so long as they're padded with foam or bubble wrap.

>>98349813You didn't fix anything, you just told a robot to shit out a jpg.
>>98348695They’re just incredibly overdramatic, they get like this here too, not just Reddit. They want the guard faction to be 2x the size of the entire rest of the game (which is based,) and complain incessantly that they’re being oppressed that that isn’t happening (not based.)Right now there are multiple guard regiments with varied model kits for different units, but because the Roughriders of Glupshittistan do not have 14 kits that I can make a full army out of, GW literally wants me to die, and the game is dead, and actually I’m going to “get into,” Battletech, and Warmachine, and Conquest, and One Piece TCG. GW just lost a loyal customer today! Historical war games? No, I’d never.
>>98348803You've got it backwards, the only really evil factions are deldar and CSM + other chaos. Imperium fights for survival, nids and orks are just programmed that way and I don't care about the rest

Nope still too hot to prime, into the stripping goo my lad.
>>98349895Man was it last year that dumbass primed a whole angron model like this and it looked wooly and he didnt know how to strip minis?
>>98349859Ignoring the moral consequences of your actions isn't neutral on the good vs evil scale and orks are actively malicious.Tyranids bereft of the hive mind are neutral but we don't have enough info about the hive mind's intelligence to know if it's capable of evil so you're kind of right there.Imperium is actively evil absent of threats to its own survival. You can argue its treatment of it's own people and completely unknown xenos is somewhat justifiable but the logic is extremely tenuous when it comes to eldar.
>>98349900I remember the weird skaven models that used actual dead rats being sold on eBay.It does fit in grimdark style but not really through paintjob just that the one who built those models is weird even by autist standards.
>>98349875>anon doesn't know about all the metal models that got mocked even back in the day
>>98349894>I pulled shit out of my ass and threw a tantrum, but you bad, mkay?No page? No backbone? No integrity?
Attach a Weirdboy to a unit of Boyz. Ten of the boyz get killed so now you have to make 10 deadly demise rolls because that shit triggers when a model in the unit dies, not when the model with the actual rule dies. End up losing like 4 more boyz and need to make more deadly demise rolls for them.
>>98349813looks much better actually lol
>>98349913Yeah, but we're not back in the day when people were willing to admit that not everything was good, we're in the current year, where people would say it's "sovl" because it's old.
>>98349387Many repentia are voluntary because they think they failed somehow. So as a self inflicted penance they join a repentia unit. This is seen as honorable. Not joining the repentia would be seen as dishonorable.You can also be sent to the repentia by a superior for something they witnessed you do but was ultimately minor. Hesitating on the battlefield is the most common thing. If you're told to charge an ork dakkagun at the top of a hill, you're supposed to literally instantly do it, if you even momentarily pause that's grounds for lashings, or joining the repentia for a while. Super minor infractions are usually just some lashings and extra prayer.Mortifiers are almost always non-voluntary (though some exceptions exist since some people take the self-flagullation thing to far extent), and is almost always for repeat offenders. Someone who is already a repentia disobeying orders, for example. But outright disobeying can also often just get you shot on the spot, repentia are for less than that, like momentary pauses. Outright insubordination is often just summary execution.There are also ways to skip repentia and go straight to a mortifier. If you fuck up and your fuck up is big enough to lose a combat or leads to the death of a sister or officer, that's serious enough.Sadly, as the Penitence animation shows, you can also be put in one if a dogmata simply says so. Our protagonist was innocent, was promised redemption by her superior, and yet was just tossed in one straight past repentia since the new officer who came in charge just happened to be a bitch.So for various punishments in ascending order:Extra prayerLashingsRepentiaMortifierSummary field executionand much of them are up to the whims of the current officer in charge. Also, different Orders are known for harsher or more merciful stuff, both to themselves and outsiders. So this varies by Order as well.
>>98349934Nta but everytime someone dares say an old thing was good, he's immediately met with faggots calling him a nostalgia fagThat's why it's known as>Old good new badand not the other way around.So let's keep it real, current year is not where people say something is "sovl" because it's old, it's where anytime someone calls something old "sovl" you cunts want to portray them as a biased clueless retard.We call that "projecting".This shit has been going on long enough that you can't fool people anymore.
>>98349813Looks like dogshit but an indian slop user like you wouldn't be able to realize that
>>98349914Sure. You won’t be convinced of anything from all the red so it’s whatever.
>>98349972That's circular logic, faggot.God what a fucking retard.
So what do you think is the endgame of them introducing a Tau Goddess and making Shadowsun her herald? civil war to stop them ever affecting the space marine main character plot?
>>98349999>Endgame?HerohammerChecked
>>98349999I'm pretty sure they just won't really bring that up again. Same thing they did with the Ynnari.
>>98349999Nothing, it will quietly get dropped in favour of cool new battlesuits.
>>98350006I think that was a specific problem related to warring factions internally fighting over what to do with Eldar.
>>98350015I think they just realized nobody gives a fuck about Eldar plots.
>>98349999>>98350006Probably this, I suspect whichever people decided to bring that out did it from a position of caving to pressure that every faction have some kind of god-figure instead of letting Tau stand out even a little bit by being the ones that don't.
>>98350011>GW is this just a Zion Zaku with a church on its back?
>>98350015I think that GW really just wanted to consolidate all the Eldar together and cut a whole bunch of their models and reduce their size. But they also didn't want to have to actually write any kind of new lore. So they just let Gav Thorpe do whatever the hell he wants without checking first to see if Eldar people actually like any of the lore that Gav Thorpe writesCraftworld/Ynnari Eldar still don't have a new writer to replace him since they canceled his series. Now they just write stuff about Corsairs and Drukhari instead (and probably Exodites soon) and will still never touch Craftworlds or Ynnari again.
>>98350015>>98350022It's because they were clearly planning to squat Slaanesh at some point in time, but backtracked, thus rendering the Ynnari plot irrelevant.
Should I stay on course with my guard army being basecoat+washes or try for a style I actually like but will take more time?Even if it means starting over? Some of my models are resins so paint stripping may not be an option.I saw a thread about painting styles and saw a cel-shaded/comic style and I like it, but it looks hard and takes more time.
>>98350044I'd say go for quality over speed, but only if you like painting
>>98350044You play guard its time to give up and become a dipmaxxer lad.
>>98350044Time is the only currency you can't get back. Do you enjoy painting? Okay, then do it.Does that sound like a pain in the ass? Okay, then don't do it.
>>98349387Why she Chinese?
>>98349895speaking of priming, I had a guy at my LGS airbrush prime some models, does pic related look really thick, or is it all good?
>>98350056Okay.>>98350059Armypainter’s dip or Vallejo’s dip? Vallejo only changed the recipes of its model, and game color paints? Do their metals bubble from true metal to metal color to model and game metals?>>98350066>time is the only currency we can’t get backI have loads right now because no job I’m thinking of trying this while I send applications for new job.
>>98350044I average about a model a week with my CSM but when I see those squads and vehicles on the table that have been years in progress, I am in ecstasy. I have done the method in the past where you batch-paint to a 'tolerable' finish and always rather wish I hadn't.
>>98350088Looks good but why did you have it primed in white/grey? Will you make use of contrast/xpress/speedpaint type translucent paints?
>>98350088Looks good to me.I want to try airbrush priming like black and white for zenithal or contrast paints.Has anybody used AK quick gen, speedpaint, Vallejo’s and citadel’s contrast? I’m not sure which ones are the best to be honest I looked at ak’s stuff because of their opacity labeling and their caps never cracked on me but that’s about it.I’m looking at Armypainter’s speedpaints because apparently they don’t reactivate now and they mimic some of GW’s contrast colors so there is some “standardization” through mimicking the citadel colors.
>>98348918Love this niggas art
>>98348862Just be yourself :)
>>98350101Alright. I’ll look up resin paint strip tutorials and strip what I’ve got then get to this project.After I clean my airbrush and figure out how to properly thin proacryl white to make it flow out my airbrush.
>>98350110>they mimic some of GW’s contrast colors so there is some “standardization” through mimicking the citadel colors.whoever told you this is not your friend
>>98350135Looks like I’m my worst enemy because I got the conclusion from checking charts back in speedpaint 1.0 and during the debacle.Another thing is I heard ap speedpaint 2.0 can have “cracks” but I’m not sure.I plan to use the paints more for glazing too.
>>98349999Might be a throwaway excuse for future to make another subfaction for Tau, imo a cool idea.My donut steel Tau I'm making are Auxiliary heavy, zealous Tau'va worshipers

>>98349895It’s not the heat that gets ya, it’s the humidity hohohoSeriously humidity over 60% will give you mid air curing like that, you wanna aim for at least mid-50’s or optimally in the 40’s. Also try to give your primer can a warm bath in the sink for a couple mins before you shake, if you haven’t used it in months. Usually on hot days at the hottest part of the afternoon the humidity will come down some, but it’s higher in the morning
Are we getting a roadmap or something?
>>98350222GW doesn't do roadmaps anymore. They just invite lots of community anger when stuff has to change order or get delayed because of production problems or shipping disruptions.
>>98350180Damn, does he really not get the starter set a week early like other channels? He's had to google translate the Spanish version lol.
>>98350229>They just invite lots of community anger when stuff has to change order or get delayed because of production problems or shipping disruptions.I can't believe someone could be upset when what they're told to expect doesn't happen, that's so childish.

>>98350109>>98350110thanks, I’ve had some of my self primed models end up looking like that, so its good to have reassurance.>why light grey? is it for speed painting?I don’t use speed paints, I just like using bright colors, and even dark grey primers have made basecoats too dark for my liking.
Wait did GW really just post nothing for Deathmire week 3?
>>98350110I used to use Contrast, but I've moved to Speedpaint 2.0. They seem to be more forgiving and don't generally get that gloss finish that Contrast paints get if you put them on thick. The bottles are vastly superior to GW's paint pots as well in my opinion. I've only messed around with them a bit, but the Metallics seem pretty nice so far as well.

>>98350529Armageddon belongs to Angron. The Orks are merely feeding the bloodshed to bring home.
>>98350541lollmao
alright, primed and ready
>>98350541How does it belong to him when it's the spot where his crusade ended because the Grey Knights kicked his teeth in and sent him packing back to the Warp?
Has anyone tried undercoating with metallics then applying one-coat paints over it?
>>98350564there are still obelisks setup and with increasing bloodshed they can summon him back
>>98350566yeah, it's a pretty comon way of getting colored metal
>>98350568So he's not even here and needs to be summoned back because he got shitstomped by Grey Knights is what you're saying. Seems like it belongs to the Imperium then.
>>98350541the guard has a special character and a regiment about the placefor the orks the place has been reconnected into their homeworldthe world eaters have nothing going on
I'm going on a mini-crusade this weekend, what's a space marine haircut that would be appropriate for such an occasion.
>>98350541>Biggest jobber in 40k>Doing anythinglmao
>>98350586bald
>>98350593That would piss my gf off, so maybe.
>>98349008>Tau do dumb shit like mind control their own allies with pheromones or do mass sterilization campaigns for the inferior races that join them.Citation needed
even GW is sick of the guard's bullshit
>>98350180I'm glad Oath is gone, a cancerous ass rule that caused shittons of issues all throughout 10th. I'm uncertain about them getting Gladius as their army rule however. Gladius is pretty cancerous too, them always having access to advance/fall back and doing stuff is irritating as fuck because you gotta play as if they do it even if they don't.
>>98350670GW is just constantly sold out of half the niche kits for every faction, especially the bigger stuff or weirder characters.
>>98350180>Every space marine having adv+chrg AND adv+sht again This is fine. This will definitely not be a problem at all
>>98350668NTA but the Tau codexes are written with very obvious read-between-the-lines implications that they mind control the Vespid with the helmets, the Ethereals mind control the other castes with pheromones, that they used biological warfare to wipe out one of their earliest ally races while leaving all their infrastructure intact for the Tau to "inherit", etc. They're absolutely rife with evil manipulative bullshit, that's why Farsight broke away and formed his own good guy rebel resistance.
>>98350690if it was "temporarily out of stock" yes. "sold out online" is what they list things as right before they're squatted.
>>98350670Fuck, I was actually going to pick one up.Guardfrens James Workshop hates us...
>>98350715That's not a hard and fast rule. GW has been really inconsistent about using their store labels correctly lately
>>98350715This just means Guard is about to get a new plastic Baneblade 2.0.
>>98350668The sterilization thing happens in DoW 1 for sure, if you conquer the planet as Tau, they immediately sterilize the humans so they can recolonize it.
>>98350737no, it means the solar auxilia is
>>98350712>>98350668Tau crimes:>Constantly invade neighboring planets or flood them with weapons and propaganda to start rebellions>Sterilize planets of humans they conquer to recolonize them>Sterilize planets of humans when they breed out of control>When they got attacked by daemons, butchered all of their psychic race auxillaries, then when they couldn't butcher them directly, arranged for them to be sent to the frontlines to all die as fast as possible, pissing off a Kroot army so much it defected to the fucking Imperium>Mind control Vespid helmets disguised as communication helms>Lie to everyone about daemons being weird aliens and magic not existing>Lie to everyone about their weird Warp god not existingThey're still way better than the Imperium, though.
>>98350670Oh shit.I’m actually worried that I don’t have those 1:1 recreations of the baneblade and it’s variants in stl form. I don’t think I have them.Anybody got them and share them please?Judging by the centaur rsv and hippogrif did GW back down on the more “curved edges” style of guard tank sculpting? I’m not sure if they did from the paintjobs.
>>98350753>did GW back down on the more “curved edges” style of guard tank sculpting?no a downgrade of the leman russ tank is inevitable
>>98350762But the solar auxilia tank sculpt was fine.>inb4 no sponsonsExecutive decision I think.I’m on the copium now.
>>98350767the solar auxilia version is not the 40k version, the 40k version will be closer to the dorn, if it's not getting outright removed because the dorn is around just like how the artillery tanks won't he updated because the guard got emplaced artillery instead
>>98350737Nah, I’m imagining it’s just a box redesign
>got a load of unpainted space marines from various kits>want to paint them as Crimson Fists>look up tranfers>only have the logistical nightmare that are the Armageddon transfers to work with officially >modern accurate 3rd party sheets are perpetually sold outFML
>>98350786What makes you think the leman russ tanks will get removed?I mean it might happen because this is gw but what makes you think that it may happen? So I can brace for the shock when it happens of course.
>>98350798Just become a freehand chad, transfers are dumb.
how likely is it that fulgrim will suck your dick and just leave the trauma of it at that?
>>98350815About as likely as you ever being a woman, so, 0%
>>98350733>local LGS has two Baneblade kits in stock>as well as a dozen of the Legion Fellblade/Falchion/Glaive variants for HHShould I doit? Should I buy a couple?
>>98350798I had a phase where I learned of nail stampers but I’m unsure about potential drawbacks and whether their painting stuff will negatively affect layers of acrylic before I varnished so I might stick with custom transfers.I need a good transfer making service that operates in Canada.So badly lads.Suggestions please.
>>98350799no real reasons other than the primaris precedent, and the potential tendency to separate the 40k ranges from the hh ranges where possiblethe dorn is already an updated and upgraded version of the idea of a main battle tank for the guard, just like primaris are of old marines, and while you and me may think there are dozens of niches in a collection so that both the russ, the dorn and whatever else can sit side by side, gw may have a more inflexible idea built on how the common denominator, or their ideal customer, makes purchases, and under that lens they must just expect guard players to buy the dorn alone and be happy
>>98350844That might be it.I think you’re right too about gw aggressively trying to separate HH from 40k. I think it is bad to be honest, but then again there are the custodes being usable in HH and 40k. I’m not sure why they exactly they are the exception from lore and business wise for that decision.
>>98350844HH Russ and 40k Russ are already different in that HH doesn't have side sponsons. This can be rectified by 3d printing but GW won't endorse that.The Russ isn't going anywhere simply because it's too iconic to the Guard and it is the only tank variant Guard can take a significant number of to play a Mechanized Company. Especially with the Baker's Dozen number of variants the main gun has.Dorn is just too expensive to run more than a couple of.
>>98350861Did GW pump the stats of the dorn tank up to make it sell better? I think most models come out being overpowered in stats to ensure sales.Votann on release is a great example of this.
>>98350861>HH doesn't have side sponsonsI just love when James makes arbitrary design decisions to fuck over people after the fact.
>>98350859yeah, custodes are weird, and I hope they herald a change of direction, but I'm afraid they'll stay the exception because custodes were exceptional from their inception:even the 40k versions weren't actually made by gw proper but by the fw side that was taking its first steps into being allowed to do plastic products, with pic relatedonly later there would be the harsher split but custodes were stuck in a limbo where they were a FW product, that received an actual GW wave (termies, bikes, the other unit and some pity heroes), and were also a bit too popular to keep off 40k, with no real analogue or plan or desire for having 2 parallel ranges.
>>98350798https://impatienttabletop.com/
>>98350861>and it is the only tank variant Guard can take a significant number ofnot anymore
>>98350894Don't worry. They'll give it back later in a journal with a sponson add-on kit.
>>98350915Not a tank. More like an amoured car.
>>98350894>>98350921Speaking of sponsons should I greenstuff sculpt a “bag” over the current sponsons and hull weapon so they’ll look like they can aim upwards and downwards?I haven’t found any third party sponsons that look like they can aim up and down, only sideways.Except one for the hh leman russ. I wanted to find a compatible punisher turret but the only one I found looked a little too thin and then I pondered modified whether it should be all plasma and a lascannon.It is meant to be the tank commander tank.
>they're gonna get rid of the leman russ doompostingYou guys are retarded lmfao, that's the most iconic Guard unit, literally moreso than the infantry. It's going nowhere, although it might get a new shittier looking kit.
>>98350915This tank looks fine and doesn’t seem to have the rounded edges of the dorn tank.It still annoys me that the forge world tanks aren’t coming like the macharius tank.I think a 3d printed macharius tank might make for a good dorn proxy.
>>98350575>got shitstomped>wiped out their best company in secondsworld eaters are supposed to be the retards, not you anon
>>98350943Remember the primaris change. They got rid of their most iconic product and changed it up.Yet somehow the angry mk7 face endured.
>>98350933it's not a transport and not an artillery, I believe it fits the bill for the purposes of the discussion about a smaller thing the guard can take multiples of for a mechanised army
>>98350960Can still only take 3.Can still take dozens of Russes with all the variants.
>>98350951Yeah and they split the Space Marine fanbase in half over it and are still getting a ton of shit for it a decade later as GW tries to slowly figure out how to damage control that mistake and walk it back. Their main selling point of the Armageddon Space Marines was "look some of them have Mk 7 helmets!" because they know they fucked up. You're not going to see any other factions get their whole line squatted and refreshed by completely different designs again the way Primaris did.
There's some really weird rumors floating around about T5 Marines and 3W intercessors
>>98350741>>98350749Okay lets check what the GW books say.>Human population increased after the Tau conquered the world
>>98350981Honestly I hope they jump the shark like this just so everyone can see how fucking retarded 11th really is.
>>98350971I’m not sure if this will work but remember the Ashen Claws “legion” of space marines? Supposedly still operating their own little empire in 40k. With renegade marine models the opportunity for a codex of renegade marines or codex: ashen claws could be released and allow for firstborn models to be used again as I don’t remember the ashen claws getting primaris’d.Maybe sororitas get all the firstborn vehicles even the dreads and sales mean more sororitas stuff.
>>98350741it happens in a non canon ending in an expansion only, cope harder
>>98350987Found another one in the Tau codex.>Human are increasing in the Tau Empire
>>98350971>>98350951They already did a refresh of the Guard's primary infantry. A few people bitched about the kneepads but once they actually came out, the whining subsided because the changes were ultimately minor (kneepads that are barely visible from tabletop distance, no more oversized Heroic-scale heads/hands).
>>98350987Page number and book please?In this age of ai we must be vigilant for fakes. Even fakes like pic related have been made before the ai age we suffer in.And I want to know how to make convincing fake images like this for humorous purposes. Any graphics designers here able to chime in some helpful advice?
>>98351006I like the kneepads personally, since practically everyone in the real military will tell you how useful they are when you are constantly kneeling in broken terrain or on wet ground or whatever, I just think they look dumb painted green, they should blend more with the pants.
>>98351008Kek, that is a good edit, I don't think it's AI though just a skilled photoshop job.
>>98351006I still think those cadians should have just been updated previous gen cadians in better proportions without the gear changes.What I found odd was how some lasguns are different from others. I found that a bit strange.But I did like the addition of autogun sergeants and I think the 50mm base size change for hwt is better gameplay wise as there is less congestion.Although I will have difficulty modifying stls to fit the 50mm for turret hwt.I did find heavy weapon team weapons that are basically held like the tf2 heavy holds his minigun so that might work. Even if it looks dumber than turret weapons with or without third party wheels and instead tripods.Has anybody found a mortar stl like the elysians had with the “revolver” look to it?Would love one.I am yet to find a rocket launcher arm stl that can fit on pauldron wearing guardsmen without annoying clippings.
>>98349999Tau what now? They're warp insensitive.
>>98351004More from Elemental Council."The grubby earth caste supervisor’s thin lips curled into a smile– a human expression, an element of that species’ facio-gestural language that had deviously infiltrated t’au gestural. Though the Empire warred with the Imperium, many humans had prospered– some might say festered– across the Empire at large. In these minor ways, their customs and quirks had warped t’au culture."Why do people take out-house sources over GW stuff? I's only mention like once or twice in video gasmes and such.
>>98351008https://net-clan.com/PDFS/AeronauticaImperialis/index.htmSecond book.
>>98351008Quality.
>>98351045Go read your primer, guardsman
>>98351067Anon, delete that post before GW gets that site taken down, that's a good repository
>>98351094Why would GW care about defunct books
>>98351125Why do you think we don't just have all that stuff in a mega in the OP anymore?
>>98351125Might interfere with potential made to order book sales to bank on nostalgia.I wonder why gw hasn’t done this for the black and red hh books.It worked on me. I bought rogue trader.
I collect GSC and have over 2000pts of painted stuff, I wonder if I should invest in a different army or just "optimize" for shit. Dark Eldar models go hard and the way they play is difficult yet rewarding, hmm
>>98351134Because you guys kept unloading new stuff to it. Notice that the old material links over at the WHFB generals are still up a decade later,
>>98351139Dark Eldar are tough in a different way than GSC. You're fragile but you're not exactly a horde army. Your damage is high but not quite high enough to trade up with any single unit. You have to be able to figure out on the fly exactly how many activations to allocate to a unit to make sure it gets wiped and doesn't get to shoot or swing back and wipe out 200+ points of your fragile units. You have to play the game of getting everything back out of line of sight and cautiously probe for opportunities to commit while giving up one chaff unit a turn to delay the opponent and then recognize when it is finally time to go all-in. Knowing how to play another T3 army will definitely help gonna long way towards learning the fundamentals but DE is an army you expect to lose a LOT with when playing against an opponent of equal skill level. It demands perfection and brutally punishes mistakes in positioning or bad rolls without backup plans.
>>98351195I've been watching Skari's games for a while and it's a craft in itself to make the whole thing work, which is what draws me. I started at 10th with GSC as my first army because aside from its lore pulling me in with being akin to Shadow over Innsmouth or The Thing, the gameplay premise of being the dickass insurgent army was hard to resist.There's just something that scratches my itch when I see Skari using his venoms to embark a unit that just fought and a wiped an enemy unit into safety.
Do HH marines make good proxies for deathguard? Would obviously kitbash them some, but just curious if they would look out of place.
Do any of you know a recaster that happens to make the 2008 Chaos terminators kit? I've been have no luck finding one except for an single I KNOW WHAT I HAVE OOP SEALED RARE RARE RARE that sat on ebay for 3 months and then got taken down unsold.
>>98350981then i can get my 2W sisters and /40kg/ will sperg
>>98351247Mk2 and Mk3 are perfect as a base for Death Guard conversions.
But what if I were to buy scale models and pass them off as centaur and hippogriff models?
This thread has been horrible, you lorefags ruin everything

>>98351407I mean they literally just did this again and called it the Malcador, yea?
>>98348823The end goal was evolving humanity into a psychic species that was naturally immune to chaos.The first step was the human webway. It would have removed humanity's reliance on warp travel. This would have removed the immediate pressure of collecting and training psykers for astropathic communication, and also the need for Navigators. This would have bought the Emperor time to properly guide humanity towards the psychic evolution without having to manage the trillion spinning plates of constant warp trouble.
