>>98406279>Is it just one dipshit doing this on this website? Forcing a meme or trying to become a celebrity?poster you replied to, and I am going to be completely real with you, I have no idea what the fuck you are talking about.
Let Chaos Idols take this thread!
How the fuck do you utilize BLACK as a color on models without fucking it up? I almost never use black because it feels hard to control when painting. You can easily overdo it and fuck it a detail it feels like. Also, it in general makes it hard to pick out details. If someone wanted to paint "black orcs" but 40k, what color would the use besides black? Just really REALLY dark green?
>>98406294
>>98406272>Guard>24I'm tentatively excited for the Steel Legion refresh, but I worry how far they'll take the redesign to avoid the hecking Nazi helmets (despite laymen seeing any of the skull insignias and saying "nazis" anyway) and the lightning bolt. The concept art wasn't promising, it looked either too Krieg on one end of the list and too Cadian on the other, for lack of better terms.
I'm going to get the recon squad. Should I give them a halftrack transport or put a hippogrif's turret on a chimera and have that be their transport?
im getting a little burnt out on my GSC. i love the personality of the army, but i feel like i really struggle to play it any other way that isnt 500 neophytes. my trukks, which are my favorite part of the army and one of the big reasons i got into them, always just instantly blow up, i rarely ever get to doser blade anything. the bikes really lack punch now that the power weapons in the squad are limited. and whatever happened to all of my explosives? they're now all very low strength, they can barely dent a marine.not to mention the one unit that does work, the neohpytes, now have to have schizophrenic split weapon loadouts which make them an absolute pain in the ass to play and roll for. also without the wyrmtooth rounds the kellermorph feels toothlessoverall im just not having as much with the army as i was a few editions ago.
>>9840627253 and space wolves.
>>98406331Normally I'd say "just wait for 12th when they do another lethality reduction pass across all armies" but realistically, GSC are just generally fragile by design, and I don't know if that'll ever change for their vehicles. All I can say is GSC was designed with recycling units in mind, so if GW had guts and good sense, they'd let you roll new Goliaths onto the board after a few turns and get a second chance to dozer some models
>>98406331I feel like this happens to half the T3 armies every edition. You just turn into a horde army that can't kill anything and your "tanky stuff" is still too fragile to actually sit on objectives so you have to rely on waves of trash and move blocking to win by points. Which is the most boring way to play.
>>98406301I like charcoal for my lighter blacks.
Anyone here know anything about using green stuff? Do you use it frequently? How much can you really do with it?
Why are there no factions that play around with piss

Are kasrkin and dire avengers equivalents?
>>98406382Damn senpaiSorry shit in your life isnt going goodHope shit gets better for youLifting and good diet isnt optional though
>>98406357It's modeling putty, you use it to fill holes, repair damage to the part (either from the molding or from cutting out of the sprue) and smooth seams or to modify a part's external appearance to another form. Green stuff specifically isn't phenomenal when it comes to modeling putty, but it's usable and easy enough to make work.I've used a lot of putty like this in historical modeling (Tamiya kits are of one variant, and they give you instructions of where to apply putty to make a different variant of a plane for example), but not really much in 40k minis outside of filling seams. I don't do full "sculpt a new shape over the pre-existing model" with it, so I can't talk on that. You can absolutely do that though, it hardens and can be painted/primed the same as your plastic model, it just depends on your ability to sculpt it. Treat it like extremely-fast-drying clay if you do that.
>>98406392start with some osl on that lantern
>>98406394Guardian Defenders are Kasrkyn+ with better guns and slightly better LdDire Avengers are Kasrkyn++
>>98406368stop injecting your horrible fetish into my games.
>>98406392According to this anon >>98405909 , you are just jerking yourself off by highlighting every finger.
>>98406409What if I told you your paints have piss in them.
>>98406368Battleshock tests are actually just hold in your piss tests. Nightlords are masters of piss extraction while Chaos Knights are driven wild at the scent of it. Space Marines know no fear because they are always pissed.
>>98406392do you jerk off before painting or after
>>98406425During, obviously
>>98406392Fuck you nigga stop making MY templars look bad. Fucking tryhard assholes doing an actually good job making us normals look like shit.
>>98406394Lolno, Eldar are far superior to Humans in skill, reaction time, and technology 1-to-1, Dire Avengers are elite Eldar, they're more like Space Marine equivalents.
>>98406392I kinda like this weird hatching style you went with but I think it needs a final layer of dark wash over the top to blend it a bit more. The cloth looks phenomenal, the smooth armour panels not quite.
>>98406434A dire avenger is 15 ppmAm intercessor is 15 ppmThey're pretty damn comparableA Kasrkin is 10.5 ppmA Cadian is 7.5 ppm
>>98406434>lore argumentFor a long time space marines were only 1 wound
Logistically speaking, how the fuck do Chaos Space Marines stay in business? Where are they getting bolter ammo from? or armor repairs? or ships? or anything for that matter? Hell, where are they getting gene seeds to make more chaos space marines? I imagine no one is really trading with them lol. So how the fuck are Chaos Space Marines even functional as a faction? Lorewise speaking.
Is there a codex release order for 11th?
there will be a point at which the armageddon box will be sold by someone on ebay trying to get rid of it for only 190 bucks and then I will get one.
>>98406458>gearStolen or produced in their own factories>geneseedStolen from loyalists
>>98406458>Where are they getting bolter ammo from? or armor repairs? or ships? or anything for that matter?They either work out deals with the Dark Mechanicum or steal it from Loyalist supply shipments>Hell, where are they getting gene seeds to make more chaos space marines? Daemonculaba lol
>>98406458They rip out of the eye of terror or warpspace or whatever and terrorize imperial planets, steal gear, slaves, children to be implanted with geneseed for new astartes etc.They steal geneseed from loyalist chapters and obviously do their best to maintain their own geneseed by harvesting it off of their dead allies
>>98406458They aren't known for raping and pillaging for no reason, anon.
>>98406460Not if I get it first
>>98406459Not to my knowledgeWild guess though space marines and orks coming first?Maybe tyranids instead of orks though with the success of space marine 2 the vidya
>>98406459Orks first it seems, then most likely space marines, then who knows what's next.
Power level / lore wise, how do Primaris fair against Chaos Space Marines? Like what is the Chaos Space Marine equal to Primaris or answer? Given that Primaris aren't confirmed to have fallen to chaos(yet), the CSM don't have Primaris Chaos Space Marines right? So what is their answer to apparently new and stronger loyalist marines?
>>98406477Primaris are physically stronger but are generally newfags so they get PWNed by the oldfag chaos marines. This will level out over time, however.
>>98406465I guess I am just confused as to how big the chaos space marines really are. How many marines are in a given Chaos Space Marine legion? 1000?
>>98406477>Power level / lore wise, how do Primaris fair against Chaos Space Marines? They have a bit of an edge in physical strength and endurance, with better battle-regeneration. However, Chaos marines are usually more experienced than Primaris marines and can bring their own Chaos buffs that vastly exceed Primaris enhancements.>Like what is the Chaos Space Marine equal to Primaris or answer?Chaos Chosen.
>>98406458>Logistically speaking, how the fuck do Chaos Space Marines stay in business? Where are they getting bolter ammo from? or armor repairs? or ships? or anything for that matter?World eaters ahve the red priests of sarum supplying them, that daemon world is powered by the greater daemon of weapons Sa'raa'um who is bound and free to whisper into their ears in a dark shrine deep within the planet's core.The Iron warriors and Black Legion have a number of daemon forge worlds too.Other ones like the thousand sons are just magic lol and plague marines shoot slugs or something and the other ones probably loot or something.Hell, where are they getting gene seeds to make more chaos space marines? I imagine no one is really trading with them lol. So how the fuck are Chaos Space Marines even functional as a faction? Lorewise speaking.GW doesn't go into details sometimes it's path to glory sometimes they use the geneseed that is still functional sometimes it's recruiting loyalists or stealing their geneseed sometimes it's daemonculabaUnsurprisingly the Iron Warriors are the only serious ones who have serious explanations, the rest of them are just bullshit.
>>984064851000 is the cap set by the autistic codex astartes for the loyalist chapters. Chaos legions don't give themselves a cap so there's untold amounts of them at any given time.
>>98406416>you are just jerking yourself off by highlighting every finger.Just call me a gooner then
>>98406497>1000 is the cap set by the autistic codex astartes for the loyalist chapters.It also went out the window when Guilliman sent thousands of marines of Primaris reinforcements to every Chapter. Now Chapters have a nebulous amount of manpower that exceeds 1,000 but is never specified. He also created like a hundred new Primaris chapters minimum, maybe more, so the 1,000,000 total Loyalist marines figure is completely out the window
>>98406458These questions are exactly why when CSM were first introduced to the setting, the original Legions had already gone completely extinct and been replaced by modern Chaos renegades that just aped their names and heraldry to show their allegiance to the Chaos Gods, and even then were mostly just small-fry piratical raiders and small roving warbands, not full on invasion forces. Chaos Space Marines were never really meant to be a major threat in a military sense the way an Ork WAAAGH or Tyranid Hive Fleet is, Chaos itself is just a threat because of the chance of corruption springing up on any Imperial world and causing Daemons to start spawning.
>>98406504Honestly good, the galaxy is fucking massive and having chapters be that tiny was always gigatarded.
>>98406507I mean that's still mostly true, most chaos marines are just small fry warbands of a couple dozen marines, the only really intact legions are the ones whose primarchs are still around and even then some of those shattered into sperggroups.
>>98406460Thanks for letting us know ratfag
>>98406509>imperial fists almost get totally wiped out by the niggageddon engagement against hive fleet fucking your mom but somehow manage to come back from 50 guys>m39
>>98406516I didn't post any female Skaven because I am not the ratfag who wants hrud.
Do you paint your models when they are fully assembled or do you paint in a sort of assembly fashion? I ideally would like to paint fully assembled models but some models have really annoying spots to paint if fully put together. Like how the fuck would you paint this necrons chest if his gun was already in place? It would be annoying. But I generally have more fun painting fully put together models I guess.
>>98406504That number was never actually accurate to begin with anyways. The whole "a thousand chapters with a thousand marines each" thing was a figure of speech and there are a lot of places in lore that actually said "OVER a thousand Chapters" meaning a thousand was the minimum estimate but we have no idea how many there actually are, it could be two thousand for all we know. Also the "thousand marines each" thing is only counting basic battle brothers, and does not account for:>chapter master and honour guard>command squads and attendant chaplains, apothecaries, librarians, company champions>techmarines which often number in the hundreds>scoutsSo most full strength chapters were probably actually around 1300-1400 and that's if they weren't on crusade which gives a loophole to increase numbers as much as you want (Black Templar being the canon example but this was not supposed to be unique to them, they just existed as a way for GW to show you that you don't need to follow the limit). Ultramarines official heraldry has specific rules to go up to 50 companies, not 10.
>>98406521>Like how the fuck would you paint this necrons chest if his gun was already in place?You wouldn't. It'd just be bare black primer that nobody would be able to get a good look at and would just look like a shadow if you primed black (the correct color to prime)
>>98406507>the original Legions had already gone completely extinct and been replaced by modern Chaos renegades that just aped their names and heraldry to show their allegiance to the Chaos Godstrue or not, that is so fucking cool. everyday I’m reminded how wanking any faction too hard makes everything, including the faction being wanked worse.
kind of lost in my painting journey. Ive got thousands of points in dudes, various factions. I get into the hobby then lose focus and get slogged down in painting. I kind of want to use 11th as an excuse to jump back in. fresh faction, start small- take it step by step. any ideas for what is looking good this edition? I am interested in orks but I worry that they will have first codex syndrome and be powercrept to shit.
When does this happen now in 11th? Just any time in my movement phase or what?
>>98406485As many as the plot demands. You should really know better than to do number crunching with 40K
>>98406517Geneseed storage and the infinite kidnapped/recruited children the Imperium has to offer is all any chapter needs really.
>>98406533>Mobile Vector
>>98406533Any time during your movement phase before you do reinforcements.
>>98406531>struggling getting things painted>worrying about whats metai think i found the problem. stop chasing the meta, pick an army and just paint your dudes
>>98406529>true or not, that is so fucking coolI swear I JUST read about this within the last 2 days or so but now I can't find the exact passage, it's probably tucked away in a fucking Epic 40k book or something.>>98406517>but somehow manage to come back from 50 guysHoly Terra keeps back-up stores of gene-seed specifically for times like that.
>>98406397I really do want to add some OSL to the lantern but I want to test on a less important model as OSL is not something I'm too experienced in.>>98406425Depends on what army, templars after , Chaos or others before.>>98406432I've got the same problem, he kinda mogs the entire shelf he's on by an average of 2 points on a out 10 scale.>>98406442Thanks I was inspired by manga/comics (particularly berserk), Honestly whenever I do blending it feels like I'm just going back over myself but I'll give it a try on my next templar glup shitto.
>>98406529Not that anon, but it is pretty logical for it to be the case. It’s been ten thousand plus years since the the Heresy, while it wouldn’t be unusual for the upper echelon of Legions (especially those that didn’t break up) to have Heresy era Veterans, the rank and file Legionary shouldn’t be thousands of years old, they burn through way too many of those.
>>98406534>as many as the plot demandsIs this why the Iron Warriors had to job so hard for a large portion of the lore?
>>98406460What the fuck is this ON propaganda?
>>98406616That image has been on /pol/ way before ON made a comeback
>>98406460Restore Britain is the only legit party
>>98406621If this predates ON comeback and was made during the near 30 year interrupted reign of liberals with greens making a deal with them to block the ETS. Then it's even dumber than I thought.Thought you retards we're meant to be smart or something?
>>98406634Uninterrupted* Oops.
Have I fucked up picking Chaos as my first faction? The golden parts around the armour seems insane and there's all these little details
>>98406634are you actually bringing /pol/ shit into /40kg/ and acting surprised people aren’t in the know about it?That isnt the subject matter of the thread no shit nobody here gives a fuck you stupid fucking retard
>>98406642>starting out with the army of TRIM niggersOh yeah, kek, you're kinda fucked. Better quickly get gud at painting.
>>98406646>melty because I said the imagine is fucking stupid.Have your tantrum against the original poster not me you fucking spastic.
>>98406642they're up there but I'd say shit like sisters and admech are worse.you didn't pick thousand sons did you?
>>98406642You don't have to paint them a separate color. You can paint the entire model in one color and then go back and do segments of trim when you're feeling more upto it. You can only paint the trim on the shoulder pads or any combination of components.Alternatively you can pain the entire model in the trim color and then go back in and paint the flats.
>>98406655AdMech are probably the hardest overall, Sisters I dunno I've never painted one.
>>98406651Melty this melty that I want a nice melty grilled cheese.

>>98406670I liked that idea from a few days ago where everyone does either a dead Space Marine or a dead Ork to represent our own personal thread Armageddon War and we count dead Marines as an Ork victory and dead Orks as Marine victory (but you can use any faction for the one doing the killing) and at the end we tally up to discover which side wins.
>>98406682Funny should be April of every year for April Fools
>>98406521Depends on the models. For space marines I just leave the backpacks and arms off. To paint separately.>>98406666I would fuck her sandwich until it’s full of my mayo and would be more than pleased to see her eat it.
>>98406687I brought it up that basing it off dead bodies would be bad because something like pic related could happen, but then I just thought of how funny it would be if orks swept because the majority of marine bodies were from marine on marine violence.
>>98406703>Marine Malevolent humiliating an army of space yiffsholy fucking based
>>98406703I mean there's nothing stopping someone from doing a huge pile of dead Orks either, but I think the actual count would just be models in the collage, each person counts as 1 no matter how many corpses they use.
>>98406703Yeah I think it should obviously just be based off submission numbers. Maybe a separate meme count for a pyrrhic victory based off body count tho. That could be fun.
>>98406703>>98406712>squad of marines malevolent got the jump on a bunch of space wolves. >luckily for them the space wolves are weak, cowardly, and undisciplined, so they were quickly cut down. >the bodies were put in a pile and one of the marines malevolent was told to slice their necks open to ensure they were all dead. >the job finished, the marine sits down, and smiles as he feels the edge of his knife.

>>98406751It is from hammer and bolter I guess? So likely warhammer+ shit.
>>98406567Canonically do some chapters just have “neophytes” that are just used to grow geneseed in their necks and nothing else like a “farm” of them?I’m not sure to be honest. Might be fitting for some chapters with less stable geneseed.

How long does it take you to paint a basic model of your preferred faction? How long does it take you to paint a a leader or captain or whatever in that same faction? How long does it take you to paint a character or special model of that faction?
>>98406781>>98406766alright, I’ll believe you aren’t the decalfag, but if I see a meltie within an hour or so I’m going to be REALLY upset.
>>98406770>>98406773>>98406778Thanks!On another note while it seems a lot of csm are formerly loyalist marines that went traitor, what are about the csm that were from boy to marine process somehow? What’s the ratio of those csm to marines that embraced chaos? Sometimes I wonder if those kinds of marines ever stop and think maybe they were screwed because their path was to always fight against the imperium but at least the loyal marines that turned traitor had a “choice” and they chose to side with chaos.
>>98406806We have no idea what the ratio is but the ones who get recruited by Chaos Marines as boys were already super extremely fucked up because they're either coming from daemon worlds or otherwise Chaos-controlled worlds that at best are anarchic shitholes full of cannibal savages.
Alright /40kg/ I have a good question about (yourdudes). What would (yourdudes) leader wish for if he was a child with cancer and the make a wish foundation visited him?

>>98406829Perfect, 70 new Gue'Vesa for the frontlines!
checking local stores that don't have online preorders tomorrow, I want the exodites but it still drives me up the wall the pictured terrain pieces aren't in the box and the orks are just orks, not captain killa's squigglywiggly kill team. They really did me as dirty as possible with this box.
>>98406834I just looked it up, he made the Flayerszakht Dynasty and they look awesome and he is thankfully still alive.
>>98406836I'm imagining one of the employees looking at one of the others and shrugging before halfheartedly slapping the ork, who proceeds to vaporize him with a power klaw.
My sob on my objective failed their battleshock test, but because sticky objectives says it's yours until the opponent actually takes it, I counted as still holding that objective, and later on I won by exactly 4 points.Don't let anyone tell you battleline units are bad.

>>98406849It is a good color scheme and I’m glad he is still okay.
>>98406813cure for cancerthen he'd start berating the make a wish employees for being incompetent when they couldn't do it
>>98406829why has every office become like 90% female and why do people shrug their shoulders instead of calling out obvious discrimination when they see it.
For the CollageAm new no bullyLorgar was right

>>98406869very nice, not bad at all for a new painter. But thin your paints>Lorgar was rightvery based
>>98406868granted, a lot of places are probably discriminatory, but most men straight up don’t like or at least don’t have a passion for childcare, so make a wish being so female dominated isn’t surprising.
current tau progress so far
>>98406879I guarantee if I send 50 perfect resumes to them I will be rejected each time for being male
>>98406880Looking good so far champ!What airbrush and airbrush paints? I am looking for idiot proof first time airbrushes.Would a large cardboard box be a good enough diy spray booth?
>>98406634Its just a shit meme from aus/pol/ anon calm down, i didn't post it btw. Think its from the early 2010s

>>98406915THIN YOUR PAINTS
>>98406922how about you thin yourself, fatty.
>>98406889found this Chinese company called Gaahleri that has pretty good prices on airbrushes and their paints are decent. I use their 0.3 mobius airbrush, along with their silver metallic and translucent red to get the result. For a first airbrush you can go with their GHAD 39, I still use mine primarily for priming.As for a DIY spray booth a box can work but youre going to at least want a fan behind a filter for ventilation.>>98406919I dont know who that is. I'm usually in /m/ painting gunpla and got into 40k recently
>New Exodite lore>There are MILLIONS of Maiden WorldsThen why aren't the Eldar living on them? Is it surely better than living on craftworlds?
Once again I am asking who the actually based and technologypilled factions are, because Admech are complete frauds
>>98406925>be into gunpla>decide to into 40K>get into the 40K gunpla armyI love a man who knows what he likes.
>>98406931>Then why aren't the Eldar living on them?They are. That's the Exodites.>Is it surely better than living on craftworlds?Much less safe. Craftworlds are flying fortresses that can travel to avoid attack. The Maiden Worlds, no matter how well-concealed they are by Exodite tech, are constantly getting invaded by colony ships and Orks
>>98406913I’m sorry for using outdated talking words. But I can’t keep up with zoomer and alpha slang as I’m almost 30.>>98406925Thanks!I gotta diy a proper airbrush box and maybe hopefully be able to use it like a light box when just adding paper to it.>/m/ airbrusherI’ve been getting into airbrushing for priming and varnishing. I know those guys have the real experience so I have to ask what’s the most beginner friendly airbrush thinners, primers and varnishes?
>>98406948>I'm almost 30UNC
>>98406936Votann and the Tau. Necron and Eldar tech is basically just outright magic, but Votann and the Tau use tech that is recognizably highly advanced technology.
>>98406943Exodites populate a small fraction of them and are usually nomadic, jumping between worlds.The Eldar have more than enough space to rebuild their civilization even if it's less safe.
>>98406516Nah, i don't play Orks or Marines so i've got no interest in the box
>>98406703What a total crap diorama
>>98406980the wolves definitely crapped themselves as they died, yeah.
>>98406983Thinking one Marine from an inferior branch could kill 20+ elite Wolf Marines is so stupid only your faggot ass could conceive of it.
>>98406948only use acrylic paints so cant say about the other paint types but from what I've used so far a lot of airbrush acrylic primers suck ass. I've tried 3 different vallejo primers and 1 warpaint primer and never got consistent results, I currently use Gaahleri primer (love both their matte black and white primer) and have gotten decent results with it. Cant help much on thinner and varnish since I only use vallejo's thinner and varnish, works well enough, you will have to get the feel of things since there's no real ratio of thinner to paint that works for everybody.
>>98406963>and are usually nomadic, jumping between worldsUnless there's some new retcon in that dossier, no, when it says Exodites are nomadic it means they are nomadic on the surface of their one planet. They will travel the webway if needed but they aren't generally going planet to planet.
>>98406997You are BANNED nigger, stop coming back.
>>98406998Thanks anon!>love both their matte black and white primerI thought pro acryl black and white were some of the best. Are you able to compare both of them? Is China somehow winning here and closing in on airbrush related hobbies like gunpla to scale model and now miniature painting?
>>98406880Nice I really like the metallic red, I tried a some similar techniques, but i figured without an air brush it wasn't satisfactory so I just went with a red metallic paint.
>>98407006Havent gotten a chance to try pro acryl's stuff yet except for their titanium white which is pretty good. ill give it a go when I order paint again
I used to be into this, but lately I've been feeling a profound sense of extreme cringe, it's the only word for it. Does anyone else get this? I've never felt this with anything else I'm into.
Urple Fire DragonElfs are hard to paint the way I'm doing itI expect improvement as I get used to them but super curvy models are way harder than I thought. The rest of my army will look better with patience and a steady hand
>>98407020every instinct inside me is telling me this is meant to look fuck ugly, but as I look into the light purple armor with tasteful yellow plating I’m completely mesmerized by its beauty.
>>98407014Sometimes I get this feeling. Being afraid of being cringe made me put off practicing creativity and art out of fear of hurting myself in a way that being young and dumb can’t excuse.Warhammer 40k and tabletop miniature wargaming and ttrpgs are cringe. But they aren’t in a way where you’re doing stupid shit like Chris Chan’s antics. I was afraid of being like that and ended up not doing anything.There’s a balance to be maintained here. Yeah it is good to not care about what others think, but like all things it can go too far if that makes sense.
>>98407005ywnbaj
>>98407020I do like the under glow of the purple.
>>98407027See I agree and have no issues being into other weird "cringe" stuff, but 4pk specifically just gives me embarrassment
>meltie starts welp, I would like to congratulate >>98406775>>98406793 for his being completely vindicated of the schizo charges and would like to state I’m now a bit miffed.
>>98407014Cringe is just the fear of normalfagsPurge the fear from your body Let if flow through you like a river. Out and away toward the sea.Once you will have done that, you will be free. Just fucking enjoy the things you enjoy and don't be a fucking faggot about it
>>98407061Just to be clear, i just got here..the previous bs has nothing to do with me you nigtard
>>98407078nobody’s buying that. anyway, I’m going to bed now, but it looks like “defeated foes” has a lead in the collage, so hope you enjoy seeing “space wolf annihilation 2.0” with a bunch of entries just like that one.
>>98407054Why does 40k give embarrassment?If it is because a lot of fans are loud annoying, expressive and nearly unavoidable in nerd anything like horse cartoon then all you can do is grit your teeth and be one of the good ones.>>98407066Wish I had this advice sooner.
>>98407026Purple and warm colors are like peanut butter and jelly Applying acedemic theory tells you it should be terrible, horrible, absolutely intolerableBut it just works
>>98407102What other examples are there if this sort of thing where odd color combinations just work?
>>98407020
>>98407120Just look at opposite sides of a colour wheel, contrasting colours
>>98407129Does this work for plasma coil glow too?I want plasma glow from colors like a lit fire torch. I’m not sure why blue became the default but then again the old good new bad hipster makes me consider metallic coils instead.How do plasma guns fire anyways? Is there always a delay after pulling the trigger as the gun must charge up or do they charge up and can rapid fire until they need to cool down?

Yknow, we shit on Primaris a lot, and most of it is deserved, but at least we can all agree, they are mostly not as bad as these pieces of shit. I still cannot believe these exist.
>>98406878Its moreso splotchy because I need another thin layer or two of gal vorbak and my copper from vallejo seemed like it separated in the bottle a lot.also my first experience with chaos trim so its sloppy.Also thinking of adding some Book of Lorgar script later but I want on to other models.I noticed the oils of my hands seemed to take paint off of edges I hold it at too or something.

what's the most characterful sculpt if I want to do a one off marine malevolent?
>>98407167A vermintide character said something about grading evils. It isn’t good to say bad things are now good because worse things exist.The same applies to how after a certain amount of time stupid looking things are now good.The phantom menace will always be a bad movie. The centurions space marines will always be terrible. Scout marines of any kind will always be dumb. No amount of time and art no matter how good will change that.
>>98407181

>>98406301The trick to good whites is not to use white except maybe as the last highlight. The trick to good black is not to use black except maybe as a shade. Base coat in a dark gray or dark blue depending on your tastes, highlight with a light gray or blue, maybe do final highlights with something approximating an off white, and shade with black if you must use it, but consider not using it at all. Minis look darker on the tabletop than they do on your desktop. That midnight blue under well illuminated magnification is essentially black in real life. Remember that.>or just base coat white or slightly off white, slop an appropriate black speed paint over it, and call it good enough>because it probably will be

looking at the exodite sprue there are like 10 heads, the dragon knight weapons (x3) the dragon master weapons (x3).there are only 3 sets of legs but 4 torsos.There are multiple dragon head alts and leg alts, though 3 bodies.

I'm just assuming the Legion of the Damned is just a gigantic reference to Ghost Rider, yes? Also, I thought they were the lost Firehawks chapter.
are there any kits that give enough bits for a psyker staff? Or is there a decent guide out there for making them (for marines obviously)?
>>98407421No. You're paying 60 points to give a unit deep strike. Without guns the pods are just scenery. Marines already have a range of deep striking units, and those don't require you fit a big vehicle on the board as well. Any decent player will easily screen it out from landing anywhere dangerous even with the reduction from 9" to 8".
>>98407336I prefer black power weapons

>>98407613whats wrong with this?
>>98407456Yeah, we call them genestealer cults.
>>98406520I want hrud?
>>98407813genestealer cults have nothing in common with skaven. in fact they are the polar opposite of skaven in almost every respect except a few gameplay mechanics, but they also share those with half the other armies in the game.this is a very stupid meme that needs to die
>>98407647The sorcerers are physical, they have geneseed and whatnot they can pass on.The rubrics can get rebuilt and resummoned, they're basically recyclable like necrons.you even see it happening in sm2 https://youtu.be/8PRyCSaAR2U?si=9ggXQi6I7yVhv4_0

>>98407817>genestealer cults have nothing in common with skaven.They are the same sewer dwelling cunt faction, that's their niche.We don't need skaven in 40k. Less furfags the better.
>>98407829you need to try harder
>>98407819Retarrd. They travel back in time to back when the Horus heresy was in its prime to kidnap pre-fall marines to rape them with their tentacles until they turn into hollow husks. The acidic piss that a sorcerer can spew out is what soldifies a marine into their pact with tzeentch.
>>98407838No, no, they do that for fun, not for numbers.
>>98407809This. I keep on hearing discussions on big breasted tomboys vs small breasts.
>>98407859Big breasted tomboys 100%. They are better.
>>98406231Hey guys, collage anon here again. I read some feedback and I have a suggestion I want run by you all.Some anons want to do "40kg hive" sort of theme where the number of marines/orks as corpses or thropies win our own little "battle for 40kg" event. I propose we have it as an extra theme and remove the defeated foes/thropies option from the vote. Give me your two cents, thank you.
>>98407211>The old lore, the old art, when they still felt raw and grimy, that shit was pure kino.
>>98407889>12 dollars in modern money for two modelswhen you think about it 10 models for 65 bucks isn't much more expensive than the equivalent in 1989
>>98407859The big breasted tomboys are fighting small breasts? As in, just the breasts themselves?
>>98407859No seriously, the fighting game community is fucking terribleIf you think 40k WAACfags are bad, wait until you play those gamesEVen with nothing on the line, in just friendly matches, people will abuse you, scream at you, and mock you if you ask for advice
>>98407911This is why I only play real fighting games where every single character is a busted, toxic, dishonest Hitlerian freak like Gundam EXVS.
>>98407001You might want to read the "Silence" short story. Exodites are nomadic in that they don't stay on a planet for too long.
>>98407830>one faction is all about community, sticking together to overthrow opressors, heroic rebellions, and family>the other is an entire society built on backstabbing, murderous Machiavellian schemes, fratricide, enslavement and oppression they literally could not be more different. but your surface level brain keeps getting caught on surface level features. you are trying to compare two factions but know nothing about either one
>>98407924NTA but they occupy the same narrative niche, just executed differently.
>>98407893Core unit prices have been pretty stable, a 10 man Space Marine squad in 1997 would set you back £33 today but you didn't get every weapon option and had to buy those separately for £3-5.

>>98407911It's not helped by current fighting games being in the gutter. The drive rush 50/50 throw combo mess that is SF6, everything about Tekken 8, etc. A lot of bitterness to go around.

I thought this thread was a bit dead.
>>98407758Being able to put any unit into reserves really fucked over drop pods. There's no reason to spend the points when you can just come in off the edge of the board for free.
>>98407924Both are still sewer dwelling goblins and occupy the same niche, we don't need skaven.Nevermind that one other thing skaven had going for them in WHF is their surprisingly advanced technology. However that doesn't work in 40k when we already have shit like the Mechanicus, the Leagues of Votann, the Tau, Dark Mechanicus even.And their "narrative"/theme of "sewer dwelling monsters living under the city" has already been taken by the genestealer cults.And all of the fucked up mutants and abomination shit was taken by both Chaos and Dark Eldar.Only thing it leaves is just skaven being furfag bait, which is an awful fucking reason to add an army into a game system.Nevermind that 40k already has so many fucking factions and armies in it that GW can't functionally support all of them.Also we don't need skaven because it is more interesting when settings are separate and don't share everything between them.Also skaven very recently had their entire range refreshed for AoS, which is the final nail in the coffin for skaven in 40k, they won't make a skaven range for 40k. Since GW nowadays doesn't want setting "bridging" armies. Only ones that are allowed to stick around is shit like custodes because they are a small faction and got "grandfathered" in.You want skaven? Go play Warhammer Fantasy or AoS. Pick your poison.
>>98407924>>98407927>the other is an entire society built on backstabbing, murderous Machiavellian schemes, fratricide, enslavement and oppressionThey have another faction hidden below the surface of the galaxy that springs up without warning and occupies the same narrative niche
>>98406331You need brood brothers and a few tanks brother to do the front line fighting then get GSCs to do the infiltrating Tyranids/BB/GSC can be a lethal army
>>98406868Men hit the tops and bottoms of the IQ scale and women tend to cluster around the middle. That's fact, everything else I will write is reasonable guesswork.I think logically men with lower IQ and more strength tend to take up physical jobs, men with higher IQ take up the extremely complex and technical jobs. Since we've forced women into the workplace with changed economic conditions (read: lack of wage growth worldwide), they have naturally fallen into "mid tier" jobs like office jobs.Since women have lower strength and mid IQ, that makes them the perfect fit for less-physical office jobs in our society that dumb men can't do, and smart men are overqualified to do.This is why it's dumb for feminists to ever want 100% gender equality in every industry. Women aren't strong enough on average to do the most physical jobs (even if a small minority of them can), and aren't smart enough on average to populate the most technical, complex, autistic jobs (even if a small minority of them can).So if women are in the workforce, the office environment is the best fit. I've met some women who make very competent office administrators but wouldn't make good rocket scientists or garbage haulers.I've met plenty of dudes who would be a good fit on a job site hitting nails into beams with a heavy nail gun, or a good fit in a lab optimising formulae, but would be too stupid/wasted in an office role.

>>98407957They're mysterious slave raiders rather than insidious insurrectionists who threaten stability from within. Pretty much a great example of the opposite of what I was talking about: personality-wise they share a lot of traits with skaven but their narrative role is the exact opposite.
>>98407956>>98407957Really, the problem is any unique skaven "flavor" has kinda been gutted and handed out to different armies>sewer dwelling, paranoia inducing under-empire? GSCs>scrappy schizotech that's just as likely to blow up the user as its intended target? Orks>slavers that love making fucked up grafted war-abominations? DEldar>scheming backbiters that are their own worst enemy? Like half of 40KThey'd have to invent a brand new niche for 40K skaven like GW tried to do with Votann and even the one people like to bring up of gasmask wearing trench warfare specialists is already occupied by Kriegers. There's just not much for them to do that isn't already being done in 40K.Really the only thing I can think of on-the-spot is some sort of chemical warfare specialists that have lots of indirect fire and braap gas grenades all over the battlefield, but I'm pretty sure Nids can already do that and there's that one Admech detachment that irradiates the enemy backline to the same effect.

>>98407573Man I love Mandrakes and Incubi.It's a shame most of the rest of the range is ass.

>>98408029Well, those are the only two units that have gotten modern updates.Maybe the rest of the range will look better after some updates. While I like their general aesthetics personally I think the whole Wych cult range looks like ass.
>>98406331its a bit shit isnt it, we definitely need a few more units because the variation is shithouse atm. i havent even played final day yet but i have little faith after they nerfed gargoyles. im gonna try out the triple 1dp detachment when i get the chance but ill still hold out for the codex (whenever that is) and see what the changes are, otherwise ill just stick to painting them and thats itwho here GSC and who here JUST?
>>98408052I just like knights and crusaders. Simple as.
>>98408061I think the wych cult could be cool, but the models are all failures of execution. How do you have an attractive female duellist and make her model ugly, no release window could have possibly been important enough to greenlight it.The Haemonculus side of things is just unfortunately not my jam, but GW apparently agrees with me seeing as they deleted most of that damn portion of the range.Are Mandrakes even good in 40K, or are they still kinda bad?
>>98407938Play Granblue Fantasy Versus: RisingPlease, I'm begging you
>>98408093Mandrakes are "good" in that they are very efficient at a recon or priority assets game plan being able to teleport around the battlefield and use lone op to stay alive. Their durability is nil though and they just evaporate, which makes their infiltrators role a bit dodgy unless you are just using them as a speed bump to keep yourself from getting boxed in. Thankfully redeployment tricks can let you use them to zone out enemy infiltrators and then cycle them back into a safer screening role for reuse later. Their damage is not nothing and they do have dev wounds on both shooting and melee that get buffed in a couple detachments, but they're just too valuable for late game objectives to toss out for chip damage into something big.They compete favorably with Reavers who serve a similar role in most army lists and you usually pick one or the other or one of each depending on detachment.

>>98408164I genuinely don't see how any Christfag can think being a Christfag is based, especially Catholics.The pope is an even bigger faggot than the last one
>>98406331My rockgrinder blew up instantly last game because I positioned like shit, it happened at a previous game as well so you really need to know how to position and what unit in your opponent's army can do it well etc. If you're competing for the central objective, I find it best to swarm it with your neophytes. By the time they manage to cut down your shit you've already controlled the objective by two rounds.

>>98407652What even is the "correct" counterplay to this roster? I have a friend who "just really likes" this particular roster and I'm sick of every game I play being one-sided stomps in his favor from the sheer amount of dice he gets to roll and the sheer bullshit of his hit chances (in both directions).It's not fun if I don't even have a fighting chance, and so far it's felt like I'm just setting up my dudes to be walked over for a manchild to get his cheap jollies from.

>>98408187NTA, but who the fuck cares if you're "seen as based" or what others think of you at any capacity.If people are picking a religion/ideoligy/whatever on the basis of wether it's "seen as based" then they are not believers of that ideology, just trend chasing larpers wearing a skinsuit.Caring what other people think is cool and evaluating what you're allowed to think or like based on that is mindless sheep behavior.
>>98406276Whats with the obsession with the new ork models having massive bottom lips? I know they've always had quite an underbite but its all so emphasised now particularly with even more teeth sticking out
>>98408219£119.99
>>98408269It's mostly the color scheme that brings that part to the eye while most paintjobs don't highlight them as much, but also there's been a clear attempt at giving them multiple expressions and the lip helps a lot in that.
>>98408269they’ve always had really pronounced bottom lips, its just they were painted the same color as the rest of the skin so it wasn’t as noticeable. you can paint the old boyz with purple lips, and the new boyz with green lips and they’d be interchangeable.

>>98408252Kek
>>98408303>implying that complaint is unreasonable retarded and cucked. not even replying to the rest of your post.
>>98408303It was mostly annoying from a gameplay standpoint, so yeah. Sure not being truly multipart sucks but at least you aren't forced into a singular loadout that nobody would ever fucking run of 7 choppas and 3 shootas like in the previous kit.
>>98408246Probably never since GW isn't keen on opening up that can of worms.Also regardless what GW would ever do with them, us, the fanbase are going to lose anyway. At least half of the fanbase or more, would want more humanoid felinids, basically think anime catgirls that might have furred forearms and clawed hands that some tiger monster girls you see sometimes in art hentai. But that's basically never happening.
>>98408256You tell him "Your list is shit and no fun to play against, please mix it up a bit". I know, I know, lily livered confrontation avoidant nerds and all that but the worst that can happen is you end up never playing against him and the shit list again.
>>98408349On the bright side, even if GW did cock em up you could at least use the stats to kitbash your own TRVE felinids.
>>98408349>At least half of the fanbase or more, would want more humanoid felinidsYeah, I'm that half of the fanbase.But I don't want any of the nekomimi shit. I want a proper space-cat.
Are the getting started boxes for Orks and Marines the new combat patrol box format that will be applied to all armies? I.E. Include paints to get "base look" for the armyOr are they just starter set army specific and this won't be applied to others?Since adding 50$ worth of paint to a Combat Patrol is a great way to incentivize people to start 40K, it gives you paints and a brush that you can immideately get started with the hobby with a single purchase of the box.
>>98408345It is literally unreasonable, you can't be mad at a lack of loadout customisation in one case but not in the other without being a hypocrite; and you can't excuse the second case as counting as wielding the other weapon because then you could do the same with the first too>inb4 but the weapon is not on the model in that case!in how many fucking cases is your model equipped with literally everything the loadout calls for including hand weapon and grenades?
>>98408367Because back then you had to pick one or the other.Now Ork boyz have both shootas and choppas baseline.
>>98408356>the statstheir statline is the normal human statline
>>98408363>Are the getting started boxes for Orks and Marines the new combat patrol box format that will be applied to all armies?Almost certainly not.
>>98408363It would be a based consumer friendly decision, so no.
>>98408350I've had that conversation already, he insisted "all factions have bullshit like this, just build better" and refused to change a single unit. I said he was full of shit due to not playing anything but that and therefore not knowing what it's like to play against it (or as any army other than space marines), and he got mad at me and just kept on the "everyone has bullshit like this" point.Now I know the next "correct" course of action is to just not play with him, but I'm a ruralfag and having one less opponent means not getting to play AT ALL without driving for 100+ miles to the closest cities.
>>98408379That'd be boring, they're abhumans. You should at least be running them as Catachans
>>98408359You don't want more furfags into the fanbase, trust me.
>>98408403Why is the one in the far right so fucking African coded
>>98408299It's mostly just terminally online culture war fags that do that.Normal people just pick whatever they think looks cool and don't treat 40K too seriously.
>>98408363They've only done it this way because there's other ways to buy those models together. Customers have to choose the lesser evil between a bunch of shit paints or models for an army they have no interest in. Most combat patrol boxes sell to non-beginners. Making a bundle those customers don't want is bad business.
>>98408389Unironically sounds like someone on the spectrum or someone who isn't a friend.If he's an actual sperg don't argue about if his list is bullshit just concede the point that you can't / wont build competitive lists and you aren't looking for a hyper competitive game. Explicitly tell him that the goal of playing 40k with him isn't to show who is better at the game but to have fun hanging out. Still a toss up if he actually internalizes it though.Crusade brings out the worst spergs who see it as a chance to break 40k on a fundamental level even more since there's so much wombo combo stuff you can do.
>>98408389the problem with finding players goes doubly for him. just tell him you don’t want to play against a gamey list, and if he doesn’t want to change, then leave him off but keep in touch. see if he decides to play with a different list.
I still think it's crazy how hard Ork part of both Armaggedon and getting started set mog space marines this hard.No one ever mogged marines by this much.Only flaw Ork starter has is you'll rarely want multiple weirdboys, if it was a painboy it would have been better.
>>98408389I mean I would just be insistent on him changing the list bro say its lame tonplay against and you dont want to play against it any more straight upIts better to not play the game than to play faggot ass gamesIf he still doesnt get it I would legit cheat a listLike start off with an already meta-competitive top tier list and then even sneak in extra points after that because fuck him
>>98408447>Only flaw Ork starter has is you'll rarely want multiple weirdboys, if it was a painboy it would have been better.For repeated buys* It's perfectly good for a starter.
But wait, are the "Getting started with" boxes for SM and Orks the combat patrols for those armies or will they get new dedicated CPs later?
>>98408389>>98408449Like you know his exact list you said so just counter himIf you have the models to do soIf not just dont play with him and do other more productive shit that waste time playing board games with a faggot autist
>>98408447>No one ever mogged marines by this much.Everyone has always outshone the marines, you're just waking up to the fact marines are lame.
>>98408460nah marines are sick
>>98408407>tribal eldar savages>why are they themed after tribal savagesI dunno.
>>98408452Yeah they're the dedicated Combat Patrols. So far each army has only one combat patrol in the app, but they might add additional ones via White Dwarf/online like they did during the 10th.
>>98408468sick as a dog maybe.
>>98408493sick as FUCK
>>98408424>>98408442>>98408449Fair enough, thanks for the adviceWe talk about other armies and he seems dismissive of everything but SM (Salamanders in particular) and Tyranids, so I'll talk about maybe setting up a Guard/Nids match with him assuming he doesn't bring one of their jank lists against my generico guard.I know I'm not making it easy on myself on this either, I've been trying to make SoB work recently and I just don't think they do unless I also build a jank roster with them.
>>98408511nah man you shouldnt have to run casual lists against sweaty tryhard liststhis game doesnt work well like thatalmost no tabletop games dothey function off of a social contract where people agree about the level of play they want to be at ahead of time
>>98408511Yeah assuming he is a sperg 40k sets them up to fail with this kind of stuff.40k rules are dogshit (its easy to sneeze and make a list that shits on a casual list) and there isn't a good way to quantify to an autist what a >casual list actually looks like. And since everything online generally talks about sick combos / what units are best its easy for someone to fall into the trap of "this is how 40k is played".But just like anything in life take this as an exercise in setting healthy boundaries. You are your own person, not a clown for someone else's entertainment. You should both be having a good time.If you guys are playing casually then don't stick to 2k matched play, just do whatever you want. Maybe he gets 2k but you get waves of reinforcements, you get 2k he gets 1.5k, you guys try and quantify just how busted his list is by seeing how much of a handicap you need to beat it. Do some of the wacky white dwarf / crusade missions. Maybe you get allies that you don't normally get etc etc.
>>98408219So, you plan on telling us or just gonna tease until our nutbladders explode?
unironically I think some of you should just get good rather than whining that randoms are playing too rough for you. it's not everyone else's responsibility to dumb their lists down to your level.
>>98408452It’ll be the Combat Patrols for now, the second half of the edition may have more like when they started releasing Combat Patrols for the first founding chapters.
I wish GW did a new Trukk instead of Wartrakk in 'ggedon.
>>98408551Should have done both and make one an upgrade kit of the other
>>98408557Eh I meant that way it would have been easier to collect Orks, by buying multiples of Ork half (Or better yet the starter CP if it was Trukk instead of Wartrakk)Only issue would have been no special weapons for boyz & idk how good multiple weirdboys would be.
Alright. I've not been paying attention to 40keks for a long-ass time (basically since they shoved Primaris up everyone's ass). What's the situation with 11th ed? It feels like it's not a full edition break, not least since there's fuck-all Codexes out.
How do you play a casual list with something like Knights or Custodes?
It is lame that they didn't include the burnas, big shootas and rokkit launchas for Armaggedon Orks
>>98408584Launch box sprues are always very mono
>>98407613Idk, all sisters players I've met are either trannies coomers or tradcaths. With the vast majority being trannies. It's sad cause sisters are pretty cool.
Distraction grot finished.
>>98408584I imagine you could always just build all the options when the multipart kit comes out and mix them into the other units. Orks seem like the sort of army where you need a lot of Boyz before even approaching too much.
>>98408547nah ur actually just gayive encountered the same shit in mtg and other hobbiespeople will roll up with $1k+ decks that are currently topping the competitive meta while everyone else is playing like fucking rats and goblins for fun and they just ruin the whole thing with their faggotry
>>98408547>unironically I think some of you should just get good40k is not a game of skills
>>98408571Its kind of in beta a little bit right nowIt seems to be an overall improvement on 10th which isnt saying much but they do seem to generally be moving in the correct direction though some of the datasheets look bloated as fuck so farAnd yes we’re still waiting on codexesShould get space marines and orks/nids relatively soon
>>98408530We've been playing at 1k pts. He insists that 500 is "not enough going on" and that 2k is "too much to pay attention." For not being autistic (at least stereotypically), he is VERY stringent on sticking to the rules and memorizing every little gimmick he has and then staying inside his chosen guard rails.>allies that you don't normally getI've thought about playing a "Sisters" team that's actually just Grey Knights and Deathwatch from the Agents list to be annoying>>98408593I just thought that "nuns fighting" was funny...
>>98408617if possible run a skew list that he literally cant kill lol
>>98408617Oh yeah 1k points is also wildly unbalanced too. Allying in units that have a tax on them in 1k is going to be even worse for you. >For not being autistic he is (list autistic traits)Good luck anon, if this is a close friend you will have to be extremely honest about your feelings and that is hard for the median adult. But if you guys can get on the same page it will be good for your friendship.
>>98408607skill issue
>>98408617At 1k I'd just play a recon list with lots of deep striking reserves and not have to go near anything you don't want to. There's a lot of space on the GW standard board below ~1.5k
>>98408602Yea there's absolutely no reason why you would want all 3 special weapons built for every 10 orks, unlike most troops they really don't get much out of it compared to their choppa. Burnas I can certainly see people wanting a couple of, but even for free big shootas and rokkits are not going to accomplish so much that you'd want 6 out of your 20 boyz swapping out for them. So more likely, you build the new set with all 3 and then sprinkle 1-2 of them into armageddon mobs (exchanging normal boyz back into the new set).
>>98408627That's the point I'm trying to get to with him to try and express my point more clearlyEvery game we've played, I haven't been able to kill nearly any of his units (in 3 matches I've killed exactly 1 of his Infernus marines and 1 Terminator) and he just wipes mine off the table by turn 3's end, so I thought that giving him a taste of his own medicine would demonstrate my point.I just don't know where to start, I was a guardfag as a kid and only started buying Sisters recently so I've never played with units that were absurdly strong individually (like his entire army is). Recon spam guard? Dorn/Russ spam?>>98408642I've found through playing a bit with him and another guy that 1k gets very one-sided very quickly unless you bring extremely particular cheesy lists. I'm not a fan of this game type.>be extremely honest about your feelings/tg/ - interpersonal relationship adviceThis is very useful to hear though, the social contract part of 40k is largely ignored.
>>98408714do you have his whole exact list?
>>98408359I did a fun Black Panther themed Knight I thought was pretty cool, wouldnt mind a whole Panther themed Army to go with it.
>>98406458Barely. That's the point. They have the advantage in experience and the aid of hell magic, but they're constantly struggling for the basic logistics.

>>98408901I tried to run 2 Castigators and 3 Warsuits (with Morvenn), all of them died in 2 turns to the Dreadnought and the Gladiator except for Morvenn herself, who then died to the Infernus Squad. I dealt 6 wounds to the Dreadnought and 8 to the Gladiator, none to anything else. My 2 SoB squads and Palatine died the next turn.>>98408912My issue I've found is in the preventing the "walk up and smash." We don't play very big maps (both due to space availability and him insisting on tournament play areas and terrain).He does the full sweat with the deepstrike on the Terminators and rules-lawyers me on line of sight from terrain cover, fwiw. I think a non-zero is just in him being a bit of a sore loser, so that's a point I'll have to find a way to couch.>>98408932That's it. He brought a Storm Speeder Hailstrike (it'd be 990 with it) once but left it off the table last time.I know I'm "bad" at 40k, I've never tried to be good and have never built rosters to try to win.
>>98408954No no he's right. You should.
>>98408969>deepstriking terminators is full sweat>we don't play big maps but he demands we play the correct sizeScreening for deep strike and reserves should be easier if you are on a small board and just like... fundamental 40k.

>defeated foes winningspace wolf annihilation 2: furry boogaloo coming soon
Tell me about your magical Christmas land games. The games where your crazy unit combo actually did what you wanted. Where you hit your opponent with multiple, simultaneous, and devastating defensive deep strikes and it actually worked. I'm bored and wanna read some cool battle report moments.
>>98408969It's hard to screen against deep strikes at 1k, but equally that means his fat 5" move terminators with no guns can't do that much after they arrive. That's 260 points with character and enhancements, a quarter of his list that at worst should be deleting a ~100 point unit and then holding an objective uncontested. He could do that with an 85 point unit of jump packs in a better list.Advance and shoot flamethrowers with salamander buffs is pretty scary but they're still only T4 2W marines. Don't split fire between the two heavy vehicles, go all-in on one whenever possible. He's using some strong-ish units (ancients generally suck but as a cheap way to give enhancements not awful, terminators expensive for what you get) but it's far from a sweaty list.
>>98409000If it does win I'll probably paint up a marines malevolent wearing some "liberated" space wolf knicknacks, but I'll be a little bugged if the collage ends up with a boatload of dead SWs.
https://www.newrecruit.eu/app/list/qz8xYIt's kind of weird that Canoness and Palatine are both leadership 7, while marines can get leadership 5 easily with chaplains that are both harder to kill and hit harder for the same cost. But comparing yourself to marines is one way to go crazy in this game since they're gw's favorite child so let's not do that.I really like the Orators detachment because it makes Junith and Vahl leadership 5 so you can pass your Shadow in the Warp tests. And after the recent change to Bringers making it 2dp (the marine equivalent, firestorm assault, was always 2dp while also being strictly better at 12 inches, but let's forget about that) makes it so you can take both. I also don't mind Priority Assets, this sort of list with the very resilient Junith+Hospitaller Sacresants backed up by shooting and Freye in the mix is suited to that.All in all I feel good about this list. It has many of my favorite models and I feel like it's made with PrioAssets in mind. The only thing I regret recently is that my one favorite model that's not included, Celestine, was essentially heavily nerfed indirectly by the changes to the revive rules. So she can look good on my shelf for a bit.
>>98408957honestly there are so many good ones. >kroot going PU from the stink of the space wolf>literal prize winning tyranid >telefrag>ork hijacking an invictor >slop knott
>>98407447Oh shidd really? That's cool. Definitely gonna use those spare heads and torsos for my corsairs
I waited too long for the price of my battleforce to drop.. I can't find it anywhere now below $250. It's over.
>>98409053HOW MANY FUCKING TERMINATORS DO YOU NEED? GODDAMN
>>98409058Scarabs are like the 2nd best unit in tsons right now, behind the bots. I also wanted the MVB because I think it's cool as fuck but I'm not going to buy it straight for it's $96 price tag.I missed out on the previous battleforce that came with 2 sekhetars but that one was pretty much sold out the day of release because it has such a retardedly high discount on the items within. Buying this box at $250 only saves me like $50 in comparison.
Whose corpse should my marine malevolent be standing over? A salamander? A space wolf?
>>98409030>>98409000we’ll see. if he stops now, anons will be able to cool off, and so won’t hate paint any wolves. if not, I’d imagine the collage will be a bit samey.
>>98409071If we do the hive /tg/ event the imperium is basically guaranteed to lose cause of space wolves, isn't it?
>>98408869>that shirtI’ve done this too many times. This is a good wake up call.>>98409058You ever wonder if these warhammer boxes are just sprues taken from “selling fast” boxes and shoved in to move stock? Usually with a box exclusive model to have the movement go faster?
>>98408982By "full sweat" I meant trying to fit in this tiny assfuck corner where you couldn't even fit a guard command squad (just from how small the area looked after measuring from all of my models), and then trying to fit that entire Terminator squad there refusing to relent until HE measured it out, despite having eyes that work and knowing how much space his units take up.Screening for deep strike seems rather difficult at 1k points, you can't really play for objectives AND screen every area you want/need to.I'll give that some of my issue is definitely down to inexperience with Sororitas (and OBJ play in general), the fact I'm playing Sororitas at all vs SM because GW favoritism, and with playing in a way outside of a huge thematic game though.>>98409024>whenever possibleLine of Sight was the cause of not focusing fire.He's stacking the Ancients for Immolator. The Infernus have up to 60 hit dice every turn (before counting Vulkan and the Ancient), adding 1 to every single one of those is absurd as a 1' range free kill.I know my roster is currently very not good, so thanks for the advice. It's just hard to spitball ideas to be able to counter the deepstrike terminators when they do inevitably land (even if right in front of my screen units) and still prevent him from advancing on the center OBJ with all of Vulkan's gimmicks.
>>98409058that exact amount for the 10 man deep striking brick of doom and maybe 5 more for a smaller squad
>>98409078maybe it could be a “neutral” faction that doesn’t contribute to the overall losses? wolves are naturally hated and are jobbers in lore, so I think they’d be killed alongside any orks, and wouldn’t put a dent in the war effort.
>>98409071space wolves, naturally.
>>98409053>doesn't come with a chaos sorcerer in terminator armorScam box.
>>98409093>t.lorelet
So how should I go about adding special weapons to my Armageedon Ork Boyz? >Buy the new Boyz kit when it releases and add the Special Weapon Boyz from that kit>Buy pic related and add them to the squad>Overpay on bits and kitbash them
>>98409082Worth remembering that you don't have to compete for every primary or secondary objective due to the 45 point cap for each, especially at 1k points with an opponent with so few units. If he marches his death star onto the centre you can potentially just let him have it and score elsewhere. Keeping some of your own units in reserve to enter on the undefended board edges turn 2 and 3 could score easy points and then give him a question of what to do with his limited toolkit.
>>98409124NTA but fun fact, the HQ sorcerer doesn't have a model, you're supposed to use a normal termi sorcerer.
>>98409136I'm the one who posted >>98408705 and I have had to reconsider my logic. There is actually very little downside at all to maxing out special weapons in mobs because you don't swap out the slugga and choppa in their wargear, you swap out the shoota... and boyz don't give a shit about their shootas.So it's tougher to say. I'll probably still be doing that - I picked up two halves of armageddon so I have 40 of those boyz, if I grab two boxes of the full kit I can have 3-6 mobs with 1-2 special weapons each. What I can say is, that starter set 6 man mob is a fucking trap. You can't even double it up before you start running into problems: more special weapons and more Nobs than you can have in a group of 10, and you're *never* getting any burnas out of them which is a problem with how GW locks the total number of special weapons of a particular type per 10 models.I may try and source the models anyways because they're unique sculpts, along with the adepticon Boy as it will likely be appearing in a magazine promotion, but otherwise I don't think there's any merit in them from an army-building perspective.
>>98409001Cool shit like that doesn't happen anymore in 10th-11th ed, the game is soulless now. It was pretty soulless in 8th and 9th, too, frankly, but now it's much worse.
I want to kitbash a space marine army that can double as both loyalists and chaos. Any advice on what I can do to make them plausibly fall either way?
I haven't paid attention to 40K lore since 2008. I know they made space marines upgrade to be Primaris marines who are huge; does that mean space marines are now larger than CSM?
>>98409001The rest of the game was pretty uninteresting but a couple weeks ago I had a blob of BGV and judiciar nearly kill a knight in one round, all the BGV got wiped out and the judiciar made his save and went on to kill the knight the next round
>>98409193Make them a renegade chapter. Not every renegade chapter is influenced by chaos, the term "renegade" just means they don't answer to the Imperium anymore.
>>98409197baitposting cunt fuck off
Does this scheme look shitty or peak?
>>98409207Looks cool as fuck honestly
>>98409207Their helmets look like opals. That's awesome.
>>98409207More mid than peak imo
>>98409207the melting sword looks shit. everything else is nice although some more variety would be very welcome in that sea of blue.
Are the models in the new Space Marine starter set still the Mono-pose models from the Armageddon release box?
>>98409247i agree that the sword effect could be better. but the blue and orange meme works and I'd even say the weapons should be more orange or at least have a warm neutral toned spirit stones to help break up the blue and highlight details. the opal helmets are great though.
>>98409265by all means do something with orange but making a sword look like it's soft and molten is dumb I don't care if gundams do it
>>98409093"Dead space wolves don't count for the war effort" sounds like a decent rule. If you don't care who wins, go all-in on killing SWiggers. If you want xenos to win, kill some chapters that aren't SWiggers. If you want imperium to win, you don't have to worry about the dead SWiggers counting toward the xenos' kill count.
>>98409197"It was a shitpost" is not a valid reason to say these things to people.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, CAN I FUCKING LEAVE THE HELMET LENSES UNPAINTED??? every time I try it I fuck up the area around the eyes and then when I try to fix it I get the paint back INTO THE EYE AREA and it's this vicious cycle and I end up stripping the model. These painting youtubers make it look too easy, they make detail brushes look like pencils when they're HARD AS FUCK to use
>>98409274sorry nta, just pointing out my two cents.
>>98409058>>98409087>maybe 5 more for a smaller squadOr for turning into characters
>>98409193Buy HH stuff and bash it with the RC raider dudes? Bolters and Chainswords should be futureproof for both armies
>>98409282>paint dries up before it touches the minireeeeeee
>>98409275How about people just act like adults and not engage in childish bullying tactics?
https://www.newrecruit.eu/app/list/S5uMBI really love Invasion Fleet because it's a measure against skew lists, and it's also my favorite disposition.How many termagaunts do you need to justify a Tervigon? I figured I would take a max size squad and keep them holding a forward objective with the tervigon always healing them but I own 80 termagaunts so if you're supposed to run it with more I could.
I prefer green rod necrons.
>>98409375hard disagree, one of the ugliest pieces they've come up with. I almost didn't start crons when I saw them but then learned of the newer models.
>>98409371How about people act like adults and not avoid their permanent bans on websites?
After all, why not?Why shouldn't I daydream?
>>98409396Eldar combat patrol is kinda ass. We're probably getting a new dire avenger sculpt some time too. I would wait for a new box.
>>98409371>capeshit fan talking about acting like an adultlmao.
>>98409410Did you watch any of the Marvel movies?
>>98409304He can basically use any loyalist marine kit, even primaris ones.
>>98409415when I was 12, sure.
is $3 a pop for a pushfit termagant a good price?
>>98408792That would explain why he plays the blackest chapter in 40k.
What if we all killed a different chapter this time? Blood angels? 11th launch box has the marines in their colors.
>>98409193Use Horus Heresy models
>>98409480Yeah it should be either a Blood Angel or an Ork and the side with more bodies loses.
>>98409136You're Orks. Very easy to change a Shoota to a Big Shoota. Add missile bits to a shoots to change it to a Rokkit Launcha. Stick an Imperial Flamer bit to turn it to a Burna.
>>98409396Never buy bulk like this at once. Buy ONE (1) kit, fully assemble it, fully paint it to completion, then buy the next. Only caveat is if you plan on converting and kitbashing, buy a few compatible kits together so you can swap bits, but even then, assemble and paint them one at a time.
>>98409496it's just money
>>98408847Good advice, I tend to not really think of putting stuff in reserves. Having the warsuits come in on a flank on turn 2's start might have ended the match in my favor.My problem so far has been his "limited toolkit" seeming to be able to counter everything in my faction list, all at once, at least when playing Sororitas; their roster just doesn't seem very strong outside of sheer numbers and trading melee infantry (which is middling at best against space marines IME), they have little to no staying power and have to get extremely lucky with a lot of rolls for "damage dealer" units, Castigators especially because of the main gun's strength being 9 or 10 and SM vehicles that I've fought having a toughness of 12.His Infernus just melt through tanks and infantry by the sheer number of dice rolled per attack, his Dreadnought and Gladiator are obviously strong against tanks AND infantry, and all he has had to do to outpace me in points is to sit on that center objective with Vulkan's gimmick while mopping up whatever of mine is left with the Terminators.I'll try Guard instead, but I'm afraid of replacing my squishy SoB with even squishier guard and having it go even worse. I guess we try tankspam.
>>98409507It's not about the money, it's about the fact that you WILL NOT assemble/paint that shit if you have a huge mound of it. When you have one kit it actually gets done.
>>98409509I missed a (you) for >>98409143 for the advice
