first for ELDAR
Is GW even creativly able to create a fifth chaos god whose soliders can match and fit in with the other four while also being distinct in design at a glance like them
>>98430370Well, they made six in fantasy so I guess it's possible.
>>98430375Horned rat doesn't count, neither does Hashut, those are race/ faction specific chaos gods
>>98430353I’d say it looks heavy enough. I think there’s only been like 6 submissions des, so the more the merrier.
>>98430381So was Slaanesh. Both of those gods have some human followers as well
>>98430370Yeah easily. Just pick one of the four unclaimed chaos legions (IW, NL, WB, AL) and say they served that god all along.
>>98430370Archaon will ascend to full blown god status in AoS 5th editionWhat's this chart anyway? WarriorAoS- ChosenAoS - Chosen40k - "Warrior"40k?The AoS slaanesh guys are built from the same box, I think you can either consider both of them warrior equivalents or both chosen equivalents, but I can't be both at the same time.
>>98430370a guy named Undivided
>>98430401>What's this chart anyway?Originally iut was to show how aesthetically distinct chaos in AoS is compared to the lame different coloured power armour in 40k
Shit TQ.>Allt TQWhat Army Has the Best Little Dudes to Accompany It?(and why is it Necrons with Scarabs?)
>>98430359>What was your favorite TQ?which 40k character you would have sex with
>>98430381Oh speaking ofWHERE ARE THE MODELS YOU DAYDREAMING FAILURE
>>98430394>tfw hardly anything on human horned rat worshippers aside from cult of the yellow fang (who are practically non-existent themselves).its so sad, it feels weird how between the two main ways of skaven-human relations, neither the enslaved humans who bow down to skaven, or the city folk who see rats everyday and act as servants to skaven don’t think to worship the horned rat while the big four get worshippers as soon as someone gets a whiff of them.
How do you guys deal with having a super strong faction everyone thinks GW has been too kind to but you hate the way they have to be played with their current rules? Do you just accept playing the faction wrong and getting tabled every game or suck it up until the next codex?
>>98430485I think tzaangors are the coolest thing in my codex so I just spam as much of that with converted terminators
>not enough points to buy another unit of something>too many points to just say it's close enough and my autism isn't satisfiedWorst feeling.
>>98429911For the anon that wanted the 10th index for GSC:https://gofile.io/d/UDmi2r
I like Orks, Charlie!I LIKE OOOOOORKS D8
>>98430507Just add a pistol or something.You are not playing 11th are you?
>>98430522anon no one plays older editions
>>98430504larp
>>98430527Talk for yourself. I'm here enjoying my 4th games.
>>98430370why do nurgle models get the most love out of any chaos god and it's not even close?
>>98430543favourtism by the modelers
>>98430553this
>>98430543Khorne - Too aggressive and violent for investorsSlaanesh - Too sexual and Ed Gein for investorsTzeench - Too hard to conceptualise for good effectNurgle - Just make it gross with super DIABEETAIDS
>Crippling pain in my left buttcheek for the last month>Gets worse when sitting>It's starting to drift into my middle butt / low backBros, it's so fucking over for me.
>>98430563khorne was the poster faction for 35 years retard
I wish slaanesh worshipers were sexy instead of cenobites
>>98430567Stop having gay sex anon
>>98430370yea and make them yellow and orange. the primary colors are already taken but if they got away with pink/purple for slannesh we can have yellow chaos.greed god. yellow is a GREEDY color.
>>98430563tzeentch is literally just weird magic shit + birbs. Idk why it's so hard.
>>98430370The Dark King would basically just be the Imperium's aesthetics which is basically just Chaos aesthetics anyways.The Greater Good goddess likewise would basically just be an extension of the Tau aesthetics so they'd be the real standouts aesthetics-wise.
>>98430569Which would be about until private equity firms got heavily involved.
>>98430571Sexaulity is frowned upon in the modern puritan views. Sex scenes are icky, and models can't be seductive, but ugly meth junkie crab people
>>98430586blithering mongoloid
>>98430485Say it with your full chest, vagueboy
>>98430591its crazy to me that liking drugged up murderers is more acceptable than coomer bait. I hate modern puritans.
>>98430569It is not 2006, Anon.It is 2026.>>98430581The ideal of Tzeench(fuck Tzangors) is a bit amorphous though (fuck Tzangors) it is a thing in flux (fuck Tzangors) that should all be horrifyingly not one thing nor another (fuck Tzangors) and really, for lack of a better expression Lovecraftian horror (fuck Tzangors). I think that's where the trouble lies since once you have the one blob unit, Horrors (fuck Tzangors), it does become far harder to express clearly something in flux without it being too blobby (fuck Tzangors).P.S. Fuck Tzangors.
>>98430609tzaangors are cooler than thousand sons. there, I said it.
Jain Zar got a nice booty
>>98430622Bold last words, but at least they will be your last.
>>98430579>yellow chaos.Anon you're preaching to the choir I violently agree. I think it would be best if Vashtorr succeeded but the Weapon in the Vault is an imprisoned missing yellow chaos god who takes his place as the fifth, since gettng cucked like that makes sense of a chaos character. >greed god. yellow is a GREEDY color.Is it? I've never made that connection.
>>98430567Go to a doctor wtf?>inb4 Amerimutt
>>98430609They need to bring this sculpt back in plastic, the bird beak nu-horrors are pathetic
does the tactical rock he's on look off or is it fine?I tried adding some smaller rocks/rubble but it didn't really do anything
>>98430660>forgot pic
>>98430633Yellow is usually associated with cowardice in the west, I've honestly never seen it associated with greed. No clue what the other anon is about.
>>98430665Wow that is detail overload>The fucking iron halo winged skull has a hood
Malum caedo mini
>>98430665I am disappointed that I was not looking at a squid man like I first thought upon seeing the image. anyway, I don’t see anything wrong aside from maybe filling in the gap at the bottom.
If I sub now to Warhammer+, I wouldn't fuck myself out of the goodies for next month on August 25th right?
>>98430672hey! even skulls need to keep themselves protected from the chill sometimes!
>decided to put together 40k TTS tournament for group since they show interest>spend weeks putting it all together, download links, resources, tutorials, everything>make it clear we're starting out with combat patrol to get them practice since they've never played>nobody signs upFucking kill me
>>98430567Hernia, ulcerated colon, or anal cyst. You don't want to know what happens if you leave any of those three things untreated for too long. Go to a doctor.
>>98430633>>98430667I assume the connection comes from the idea of someone hoarding gold like scrooge mcduck.
>>98430667Just looking up the personalities associated with colour, as bullshit as it is you can squiny and see how green/blue and red all somewhat align with Nurgle, Tzeentch and Khorne. I think persuasion and enthuaism is Slaaneshes domain, dunno what a socialable or dynamic chaos god would look like in practice
>>98430567ass cancer
>>98430695Sorry to hear that anon. Have some nurglings
>>98430691I think you would. If you bought a year now you'd get the current mini and wouldn't get the new stuff until your sub renewed next year.If you bought a monthly then you'd wait until you have paid 12 months to get the mini, so also next year.
>>98430709Hmm good point. We don't have a chaos god that really covers greed and wealth hoarding, although being excess means its kinda slaaneshis realm.
Have these models been officially revealed? Custodes must one of the two 2026 Codexes then, right?
>>98430732Alright, I'll wait till the shift then just to be safe.
Let Chaos Idols take this thread!
>>98430739No. They'll be part of a 30k release, they'll get digital rules for 40k like all the other 30k custodes stuff. They'll have no bearing on the schedule for the 40k codex, beyond the fact that they might feature in it now that GW is committing to making the custodes range valid for both games.
how stupid would it be to edge highlight my landspeeder with a ruler?
>>98430728appreciate it, anon.
>>98430756Those are pictured alongside 40k Custodes models and not 30k Custodes models though. They're not the same range anymore, remember?
I like orks :D
>>98430790blind retard
>>98430792If you truly liked orks you would be typing like one
I made the hotshot las pistol on the guard unbroken mini into a plasma pistol if anyone wants the stl
Played my first game of 11th, admech recon vs. custodes disruption. Had to use a 3rd party website to figure out the mission rules.Pretty funny as recon you get 4 points a turn for an action where one of your units just looks at an enemy and says "yep, it's fucking right there," which won the game.Probably fucked up the terrain rules since we used painted gang boxes instead of GW standard compslop terrain setup but overall just seems like a variation of 10th ed. Still had fun.
>>98430809I’ve tried to write like an ork in some short stories for /mydudes/, but I’m american, so it never feels like I do them justice or imitate them properly.
>>98430370They invented Mechashiva for their 5th Chaos god.
>>98430872Just fluff them up as Jamaican and learn patois
>Cadians, Kriegers, Scions, and Firewarriors are all trained from birth for war>The only difference is that the former two are given fairly standard Guardsmen equipment and the latter two are given higher quality Imperium/Tau equipment
>>98430918>Orks on the other side of the Atlantic don't WAAGH, they BOMBOCLAAT
>>98430439Meds.
>>98430990finish your project you daydreaming failure
>>98430918>>98430945>WAAAAGHWAN
>>98430792I miss fuzzy squigs
>>98430752You should kill yourself. NOW.
>>98430997I'm not him, I'm just unsure why you thought that post was him.
>>98430709Yeah I was gonna make the association with gold, but typically even then in (at least in the US) green is the color of greed since it combines "green with envy" and the color of the American dollar.>>98430711Never seen this new age shit before, but I'd ultimately agree with you. Slannytranny converting you through seduction and validation makes it the most "sociable" chaos god
>A new edition in July 2025 provided some never seen before miniatures from this deep, rich story along with an updated version of therules. Ongoing sales show that hobbyists are busy bolstering their armies with new additions to take advantage of new tactics that comewith the new rules. >Another stand out moment was the release of the new Custodes miniatures in the last quarter of the year. Ever popular amongst hobbyiststhe new miniatures were received exceptionally well. We are only three years in - just getting started with our Horus Heresy offer. Femtodes are a success, guys.

>>98430359Thank you for the links. Will I learn how to play by reading the 10th edition leviathan rulebook? Is it mostly the same as the current? 11th edition?
I am continuing to paint my kommandos. What are you working on?>>98431016I know what you mean but technically they are still around, on Ork heads.
>sales faggotry >muh femstodes did well, guyz! look at these numbers on the internet!
>>98431036>green is the color of greed Eh maybe it's just me but I don't have colour associated with any of the seven deadly sins (other than green for sloth and pink for pride because my mind is tainted by the Binding of Isaac)I kinda like how the Mammon cult in Trench crusade looks like. Its a kind of aesthetic thats not in 40k
are the secondaries dead yet?
>>98431108He mad
>>98431112Depends, decal status?
Tomorrow I play my first 11ed game with someone who never played 40k before. What are the most common mistakes people make in this edition? What rules are easy to forget or sound simple on paper but give trouble in practice?
>>98431105Those are hairy, not fuzzy. And the amount of hair squigs on new models has dramatically decreased too. It's still an utter crime that the only snigga model with hair squigs is Wortsnagga when half of sniggas' gimmick is being squig obsessed
>>98431121Hopefully gone after yesterdays meltdown and confession.
>>98431126Why couldn't that be me...
>>98431126All of the terrain rules. Especially when you're on the first floor of a building.Also Ingress and disembarking is wordy and unintuitive.
>>98431138Based if you want to take the place of the SoBCringe if you want to take the place of the wych
>>98431134I've been waiting for him to rear his head again. I thought I'd spied some mutantesque posts over the last month but couldn't confirm it was him lurking until yesterday's blowout, that sure was something
Waha updates and now I have less options within a detachment. What's the deal? Could GW not fuck me over for 5 minutes?
>>98431147And what if I'd want to be either and switch places for the next session?
>>98431158based
>>98430394>>98430460He-man discussed on /tv/
There is a disappointingly low amount of gross nurgle porn with SOB. Tyranid stuff but I want gross plague bearers fucking them. Sadgravy get on it.
>>98431186We lost a lot of the good shit when the fags that that did 1d6chan and 2d4chan purge all of the things they deemed "problematic".
>>98431214I thought they removed the art that may get them in toruble with the tightning anti loli/shotacon type puritan shit online. Did they also remove fapfics as well?
>>98431218Maybe, I remember a while ago an anon collating all the stuff that stuck around being related to the new site owners personal fetishes.
>>98431111Green is quite literally directly associated with Envy and Envy and Greed tend to go hand in hand. Gold is another good one, but purple I associate with Pride since it's associated with royalty and such>mammon cultThat's just a custodes but with more details
>>98431253Just got my armageddon orks today, pretty fucking excited. I kinda want to try to paint the dakkarig as if it's an oversized squig and give it angry eyes to go along with its "mouth" but I'm not sure how good that'll look in practice
>>98431285Oh whoops that wasn't supposed to be replying to anyone
>>98430672I didnt like that either so I used a different topper

>army is drukhari pirate centric>so I have mostly dark eldar, then some traveling players like ynnari, corsairs and harlequins>exodites fucking hate dark eldar and won't work with them>so my exodites+exodite kitbashes+normal eldar models are about 1470 points together, though they don't necessarily have synergyHmmmmMaybe it was not a good idea to collect like 200-500 points of a bunch of subfactions.
What's the collage pic for August? Some niggas were talking about Hive /tg/ vs. orks?
>>98431470sounds like corsairs can tie it all together, you just need more of them
>>98431470>>exodites fucking hate dark eldar and won't work with themDon't seem to have problem working with them in the ynnari or when both join corsair crews
>>98430940Scions are trained to a higher standard than Cadians or Kriegers, which are ultimately products of systems designed for quantity above all else.Tau are also trained to a lower standard than Scions, but their equipment is a matter of entirely different doctrine, culture and circumstances.
>would be cool to have some catachans>as soon as I buy GW will refresh them>people on ebay think old models are gold or something>paradoxically you can buy 10 of them for 37 bucks>>98431482Did GW allow Corsairs to take dark eldar, with corsairs leading the army? I was pretty sure Skyserpent's army is dark eldar+traveling players (corsairs).The rules are kind of retarded, they should just add corsairs to the dark eldar book too.
>>98431406It's not thoughbeit? I can visibly follow what the cables are doing here. On that model, the distinct cables melt into one at the midway point and then separate back out in the wrong layout. I know the average age on this board is up there but you guys might need eye exams...
>>98430851I would anon
>>98431407What a fascinating thing to focus on especially on this board.
>Have a shit ton of Krieg already, like 40 infantry, 10 Combat Engineers, and a bunch of other models/conversions>Monthly Combat Patrol magazine shipment came in this week with the start of the Guard portion, now have a Cadian Command Squad plus 20 Cadians>Make that 30, I have the squad from the Armageddon box as well>Just bought a bunch of TinyLegend's Steel Legion heads/bits to kitbash with the Raumjager box from Wargames Atlantic cause I know the GW refresh is gonna look like shit, so I'll have 20ish Steel Legion troops with a few weapon options as extra (Box comes with 24 bodies) >Just saw those Mordians/Praetorian Guard minis from Victoria Miniatures, kinda tempted to get a box or two of the Mordians once I'm done with the Steel Legion guys>Catachan refresh soonBeing a Guardfag is great, you got a ton of models from GW themselves and then a legion of 3rd party bits/models to fill in the blanks GW hasn't gotten to.
>>98431552But don't you get that little voice in the back of your head that makes you want to do full historicals?I do, and now I have more painted Afghan Tribesmen than guardsmen. Or, depending on how you look at it, a very low-tech regiment.
>>98431552>regiment soupDo what makes you happy I suppose, I've always been more the type to just stick to a few regiments.>>98431600Based, got pics?
Starting an early post models post to keep this place in a primary status, post away fellas.
>>98431470I have like 2000 points of Corsair footsloggers, cross-faction flying elves, and skimmers in varying states of kitbashing.Don't even think that can be made into a functional army.
>>98431482Exodites that joined the ynnari or corsairs are the ones that want to do other things with their lives and were prepared to leave living as an Exodite behind, otherwise they wouldn't go.
>>98431383He admitted to having an intellectual impairment and also to being a hypocrite because he feels the rules of shouldn't apply to him because he doesn't agree with them since this is the last place he can go. If admiting to ban evading and a clear intention to continue to break the sites rules while holding the other users to them isnt atleast worthy of considering a range ban I don't know what is.

>>98431687Serious question, have you worked on any models in the last month? It'd be truly crazy for you to assume you could slide back in here with no progress to show us
>>98431687The post models line would hit harder if you'd actually painted even a single model this past year, just saying
>>98431695Okay well I've got 16K+ models painted so can you speak to me with just a bit more respect you single army twat?

>>98430867Nice. 11th isn't too different from 10th but I think the changes they've made are more or less improvements across the board.
I beat my meat to primaris feet as a special treat and I think its neat.
>>98431856
Something something Drukhari fresh cum feel it.
last year the CP mag sounded like a bad proposition but with the way the mag is basically the same price as it was then but the prices of GW shit keeps going up and the new CPs are worse value, I think it might soon be the ideal way to collect shit.
Can we not use that acronym?
>>98431866Dont abbreviate combat patrol.
>>98431747>he's an actual retardthis explains so much
does combat parol magazine come with models or does it give discounts?
>>98431884Normal version gives you models and paints sometimes, like it'll give you half the Rockgrinder sprue and then the other half in the subsequent issue. Rockgrinder is like 69 bucks now on the gw website and each issue costs 15 bucks so that's 32 bucks for a rockgrinder, absolutely mogging GW's retarded prices. Eventually you will receive all the models in each of the 9th edition combat patrols. The premium version apparently gives extra models but costs 3 dollars more per issue, unsure if worth it.
>>98431890shame it's not avilable in eu. As for model prices, don't LFGs give you discounts?
>>98431896it depends but because of scalpers a lot of local businesses now have exceptions to the discounts.
>>98431896LGS (should) only cap at about 10-15% discounts. Any higher than that and GW might pull their deal.That is not going to beat a $32 Rockgridner.
the dogshit state of the threads lately is genuinely maddening, i may as well genuinely develop schizophrenia and talk to myself, it would be a more enjoyable and productive experience
>>98431902on the other hand, with combat patrol, you're going to get models GW had put out there for you, while LFGS can give you a discount on everything.
Why does gw hate chaos so much? Even in the upcoming video games only the boring thousand sons get featured in the shitty xcom rip off.
>>98431907I wouldn't be buying anything I don't want, though? If I want it and the magazine is right there, I'll do that.Or I can just buy a model off some retard on ebay. The 15% discount is basically just sales tax at this point.
why hasn't gw released this box already?
>>98431912isn't subscription to the magazine cheaper per unit?
>>98431913I should buy this box three times huh
>>98431923my sentiment too, especially when jetbikes come either in the squads of 3 or 6
>>98431922Buying the entire run of the mag is a good deal if you want everything or can reasonably off-load it. Helps keep the prices down in the second-hand markets. They usually end up selling the excess stock as singles for $15 too.
Dreadnoughts need jetpacks
>>98430515Thanks anonholy shit look at this
>>98431485>Scions are trained to a higher standard than Cadians or Kriegers, which are ultimately products of systems designed for quantity above all else.>Tau are also trained to a lower standard than ScionsWhy would we assume any of that? How do you train people all trained from birth to different standards? Sure the training is different but they'll all get roughly the same amount of it.
>Tau found a Dreadnought older th-Every scarab you find canonically fought in the war in heaven and helped kill gods btw
>>98431754These are turning out so great
>>98430665Do you have STLs of the Blood Angels upgrade pack?
>>98431967Are they not entirely robotOr do they actually have the souls of actual scarabs bound to them or some shit
>>98431967scarabs have more likely been destroyed and redone with little continuity between them, but that post applies to the most basic necron warriors, they get fixed instead of trashed and replaced like canopteks
>>98431967People always forget the second half of that anyways, which is that the Tau killed a Dreadnought older than their entire civilization. The Tau are 6,000 years old and they're already defeating the elite enemies of a civilization that had a 350,000 year head start over them.
>>98431986every necron is souless
>>98431994Nta but hold on a minute>Dreadnought>civilization that had a 350,000 year head start over themYou do realize that dreadnoughts are absolutely not the peak of mankind, right?You're completely glossing over the utter losses from Old Night and the further regression and stagnation following the horus heresy.Also, the Tau are not 6k years old, they were DISCOVERED 6k years prior.Thank god people "forget" about this that you completely miscontrued
>>98430540How do you play gsc in an older edition when they didnt really have a proper army until 2016?
>>98432019arguing that the tau aren't superior because acktchually the imperium is inferior is not the gotcha you think it is
>>98430918What would the Babylon & zion equivalent for orks be? Clearly jah is gork and mork
>>98432034I didn't say the tau weren't superior.What I did say is that your points were fallacious and factually wrong.If you're gonna mention head starts, then you should also mention set backs.The Tau are still not 6k years old.That, is not a gotcha, that is you being wrong and then being surprised "people don't realize X". Yeah. Thank god.
>>98432058>The Tau are still not 6k years old.How old do you think they are?>we don't ackthchully know!1!1!How about choosing the races' respective first foray into space as the starting point?
>>98432074>Say dumb retarded shit>"This is dumb and retarded">Get uppityYou know for someone who complained about phantom gotchas you seem awfully ready to jump into (failed) gotchas.You said they were 6k years old, it's not true. I am not going to have an argument with you over the stupid shit you claimed. Consider this my last reply.
>>98432087>it's not truethen answer the question: how old are they? the fact you cower away from this question is reply enough
>>98432019>You do realize that dreadnoughts are absolutely not the peak of mankind, right?Yes, and? It was humanity's own actions that brought them to this lowly state, if they fucked up and don't have access to the height of their technology that's on them.
>>98431962Cadians still have lives to make more cadians and such. Scions are all wards of the state. And kriegers are rapid aged low cost clones. Scions simply have more invested in both time and material.
>>98432116
>>98432019>Also, the Tau are not 6k years old, they were DISCOVERED 6k years prior.Even if we disregard the entire stone age and only start from the metallic age, the Tau still would have advanced to exceed humanity's own tech in less than 6,000 years while humanity had a 'mere' 44,000 year head start. And no, regressing doesn't give them an excuse. They had 17,000 years to recover their technological base, that they are still a technologically backwards society is entirely on them.
>25 years going and Tau are still pissing people off
Progress isn't a straight line.
>>98430543Literally just maxime pastourel
>>98432163when it's going backwards it's not called progress
>>98432116>yes, and?If you claim the cheetah is the fastest land animal because it goes at the speed of sound, and I point out it doesn't go at that speed, why would you assume I don't agree it's the fastest land animal?Implying that the "civilizational speed difference" of Tau and Mankind is 6k vs 350k, while ignoring the actual history and hurdles, detracts from the real technological difference.In plain English: I pointed out that anon was overblowing the tau, the same way someone would claim cheetahs run at the speed of sound.>>98432149You too missed the point.Everything isn't an argument. Everything isn't a competition. If you jump at conclusions because you feel attacked or that you have to prove yourself/dominate, then I'll kindly tell you to get professional help or die, whichever makes you less of a problem.I will assume you two are just two other clueless argument-brained retards that jumped into a reply chain with no clue or interest in what actually goes in, but do not think I do not suspect it's just the faggot I told I wouldn't reply to trying to re-catch my attention. This will be the last (you) of this reply chain from me.
>>98432179>while ignoring the actual history and hurdlesIt's not ignoring them, they're just mankind's own fuckups, you don't get to discount them.
>>98432179>I didn't jump into a conversation with a completely stupid and irrelevant point >YOU jumped into my conversation with a completely stupid and irrelevant point!
>>98432161honestly i hate tyranids more than tau.
>>98432179>Everything isn't an argument. Everything isn't a competition. If you jump at conclusions because you feel attacked or that you have to prove yourself/dominate, then I'll kindly tell you to get professional help or die, whichever makes you less of a problem.Meant for >>98432019
>>98432193Let me guess: you think tyranids should lose biomass over time and think biological guns are stupid.
>>98432193Honestly these days pretty much every faction fits nicely somewhere in 40k.My biggest gripe is that they didn't stick to the nu-necromundu design style of squats for those votann niggers
>>98432197no, although i'm not a fan of bioligical factions. my main gripe is "oh my god tyranids ate 99% of all galaxies and are going to eat milky way once main force of tyranids arrives".
>>98432207Ah yes, grimdark.
>>98432179>If you claim the cheetah is the fastest land animal because it goes at the speed of sound, and I point out it doesn't go at that speed, why would you assume I don't agree it's the fastest land animal?Okay but the 'cheetah' in this case is the Imperium. Is it fast? Sure. Is it supersonic? No. Do excuses matter for why it's not supersonic? Not really. Saying that the Imperium 'used to' have greater technology doesn't really matter for comparing the technological progress of two civilizations.
>>98432199i have no strong feelings about votans, once i stopped associating them with dawi.
>>98432205That's a worse exaggeration than the idea orks can shoot with a brick.The most recent factual count of devoured galaxies is an undefined dozen, and we don't know if those are small galaxies or large galaxies to begin with, looking at the galaxies closer to our own there are numerous small ones and only andromeda as a big one.This galaxy could be their biggest meal yet.
>>98432221i don't know. ever since first tyranid war most factions lose more tom tyranids than they win
>>98432231I think the biggest problem with the Tyranids and the Necrons is so far neither of them have threatened any important Imperium planets, so they feel weaker than they are.
>>98432231I don't think that's true either
>>98432217where is this from? looks kino
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98432255SM2 cinematic where the Ultramarines do their best Crimson Fists impression.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zA8vfVXN9w8
>>98432205Isn't that just conjecture from Imperial sources along the same vein as the "they're running from something even bigger and scarier" theory?
>>98432268Should really play this... But too addicted to Total War WH3 rn...
>>98432249Nids kinda fucked up Macragge and Baal, but even then Macragge gets fucked up every other week and bounces back every time, and Baal is a radioactive shithole that would honestly be improved by stripping it of all life.
do you ever accidentally paint something that's way beyond your skill level?
>>98431937Yeah, Aberrants sure used to be something, didn't they? It's probably good for the game that they're removing 3W models with 4+ fnp, but goddamn I wish Aberrants actually got to be proper terminator equivalents in sturdiness and output, instead of how gimped they currently are. Probably Custodes players complaining thattheir precious banana men got repeatedly bonked by traffic signs and mining picks.
>>98432289Plus neither Maccrage nor Baal really matter. Maccrage is just a planet, there's nothing important on there, if the Nids ate it the Ultramarines could just pick a new planet. Really, there's nothing of particular importance in the entire Imperium Nihilus. There are only 4 Imperial Worlds that really matter. Terra, Mars, Armageddon, and Cadia. And Cadia's gone.
>>98432298Eyes are a gamble every single time.After years of practice I only hit pupils on a 4+
Gonna be sliding barely into the collage this month. For one of my havocs I'll be trying to paint a shark mouth on a Mk6. Would it look better on a Heavy bolter, rocket launcher, or the Sgt. with the plasma/power fist? (leaning towards bolter)Also, anyone know next month's theme?
>>98432217This scene is an absurdly good idea and so fucking cool when you play the game. "What if we put the player in the middle of one of those cool last stands" is such a brilliant idea for a 40k game and I'm actually surprised SM2 was the first game to really do it. I know DoW2 gave it a shot with the kill as many tyranids as possible mission objective in its campaign, but it didn't hit quite the same.
>>98432316
>>98432330is that a guy from meet and fuck games?
>>98432330already heard from a guy i play with that i should do regular white and black eyes
>>98432268Something about this game was off and I couldn't get into it despite loving the first one.
>>98432334Can't explain why but the way their armour shines/ is dentened activates something in my monkey brain
>>98432334I fucking love ultrawide.
There are so many good 40k vidya. Rogue Trader, Darktide, SM 1&2, Mechanicus, Chaos Gate, Battlesector, Dawn of War, just off the top of my head. We're pretty lucky.
>>98432316One of the joys of Necrons is that you can just slap the eye sockets with a drybrush and call it a day.Any overpainting? Just call it a glow effect, totally intentional old bean..
If GW made a new type of termie armour thats unique to CSM because darkmech made it would marine fanboys accept it?
>>98432377Sure, give us more terminator patterns.Would love for 40k to have saturnine terminators too
>>98432377Of course not, loyalists would expect their equal attention cake and soon enough it will turn out that the darkmek version is actually a corrupted form of a previously loyalist pattern AND that loyalists also have a new unique pattern that chaos won't ever get.
>>98432384I was gonna say loyalists don't have obliterators but then I remembered that's exactly what centurions are
>>98432377>>98432381You're not getting saturnine armor exclusive to CSM.
>>98432413Not saturnine something NEW
>>98432413I would love for saturnine terminators to be available to both loyalists and traitors, yes
>>98432318Heavy bolter, so you can show off the gun and the grin from the same angle.The other weapons benefit more from an angled view, the bolter is great from the side.
can someone tell me how to use venetari? should i use them to capture objectives with rapid ingress, or as a oh shit button?
should i buy white dwarf if it has article about my army?
>>98432481no
>>98432481yes
>>98432377would be cool to see something interesing. something like a mix between tartaros pattern, iron hands morlocks, and gal vorbak. would have to be around 200-300 points to show that it's qute limited
>tau are secretly a lost offshoot of the necrontyr that devolved and revolved>hrud are actually humans from the far far future that are hyper xenophobic, worship the eldar gods for some reason and the time dilation they inflict on people is simply the result of them going back in time to escape Megachaos and Supernigs in the future
>>98430359I always wondered what Space Marines wear when they aren't wearing their power armor.
>>98431994the tau are literally cheating because ethereals are subversive bug jews created by the eldar using qorl genetics to create a speedbump empire to stop the imperium, it would take them 20,000 years and be wiped out by now if not for Eldick Ultard setting them up in order to prevent the imperium from doing a mega-invasion of the Exodite worlds.
>>98432521Togas
>>98432517gay and retardedyou and the post
>>98432521Leopardskin banana hammocks.
So I decided my current army to build/play would be Tsons, but ever since I started I’ve had an undying fascination with Emperor’s Children. I have almost everything I need/want for my Tsons lists, so I’ve started purchasing EC models.The issue: obviously James Workshop wants my every last penny so I’m trying to save some money while doing 2 armies at once (kinda).The idea: for the shared models (rhinos, land raiders, forge/maulerfiends, etc.) I want to stylize for both armies. Obviously I could go the generic CSM black, gold and and silver route, but I don’t like being too generic. I was originally gonna do just a straight divide down the center of each model, Tsons one side, EC the other. I’m thinking there could be other, more creative ways to do this though. Any ideas?
>>98432527both of these are canon theories.
>>98432522Eldrad had nothing to do with the tau, the point of the creation of the tau has nothing to do with the imperium, the humans have also been created by another race.
>>98432377CSM isn't tech based and terminators suck compared to obliterators anyway.CSM should have Mega Obliterators who are like twice the size of an obliterator and the Belbrute should be squatted.
>>98432532no, they absolutely aren't, you won't find anything remotely close to those suggestions anywhere
>>98432533coping taugroid speedbump
>>98432530>The issue: obviously James Workshop wants my every last penny so I’m trying to save some money while doing 2 armies at once (kinda).acquire second jobSell plasmaBut Bundle Boxes like the slaanesh box from 4 months ago and then sell the daemon prince>The idea: for the shared models (rhinos, land raiders, forge/maulerfiends, etc.) I want to stylize for both armiesThe Chaos Rhino kit is different from the SM Rhino because it comes with Doom Sirens that have no loadout anymore but look Cool and Emperor's Children Coded (for the obvious reason that only EC have sonic weapons).
>>98432538Stop projecting.
>>98432543I'm not projecting anything though, Tau are canonically an eldar plot to slow down the imperium's expansion into the eastern fringe where the exodites are.
>>98432550>to slow down the imperium's expansion into the eastern fringe where the exodites are.No, this is not canon, and yes you're projecting because the same accusation moved towards the tau as a created speedbump race also applies to humans and that fact triggered your outburst >>98432538
>>98431747I feel so vindicated by saying he’s like cyraxx hahahaha
is this the cheapest 'terrain'
>>98432557>applies to the humansIt doesn't though as the emperor created the imperium himself. The Tau do not move under their own will, did not become civilized or united under their own will and their technological development is mostly spurred as a result of eldar tampering with their development and genome to create a credible threat to distract the imperium from the eldar.
>>98432542A second job might be a good idea. I used to do a side job delivering Chinese food and it made a great amount of money in tips. I feel like I’m getting too old for that shit. I don’t have the energy I had in my 20’s.I was thinking about using the doom siren, but I wasn’t sure if it would look very Tsons. EC definitely though.
>>98432588Delivering food, that's it, that could be my second side job
>>98432161I always laugh when some dumb taufag starts with>we've been accepted in the community! get over it already!
>>98432573>It doesn't though as the emperor created the imperium himselfand the ethereals created the tau empire themselves the emperor is as much of an engineered tool planted by outsiders as the ethereals are
>>98432521Depends on the chapter.
>>98432573>threat to distract the imperium from the eldar.That's fanfiction.
>>98432593Despite how fat you're, you aren't the whole 40k community.
>>98432618uh oh, taufag melty
>>98432617The Q'orl specifically had a queen stolen for its pheromonal abilities and then those abilities were given to ethereals.next you'll say "tau being a totalitarian state that euthanizes humans to keep their population down is fanfiction" despite being confirmed repeatedly by GW itself.
>>98432573remind me again who left the golden throne for mankind to use?
>>98432161>be taufag>muh star trek nice guy alien federation with high tek meks are the next great power!>kroot mostly don't work for them>pech is 'allied' not 'part of' the empire>vespids are mind controlled>demiurg are just using them>nicassar have no choice>gay vesa are traitors and were culled>tau empire is actually a despotic state and exists purely because the tyranids or ghazgakull or angron haven't decided to randomly wipe them out like they've done to so many other small alien empires>ultramarian realm is about the same size as the tau empire, possibly larger
>>98432633DAOT humans
>>98432629>The Q'orl specifically had a queen stolen for its pheromonal abilities and then those abilities were given to ethereals.And that suggests the tau were made, but not that they were made as distraction or speedbump or whatever for the imperium, that's the part that's being contested, because it's a baseless fanfiction; the same book has the eldar doing the kidnapping saying that the point was to create a race immune to chaos, so you can throw your homo-centric view out of the window.>euthanizes humans to keep their population down >despite being confirmed repeatedly by GW itselfthat's not been said repeatedly, it happened once, and other instances show that it isn't a standard practice.if you want to seethe and moan at the tau, use actual canon instead of using fanfictions, because it only shows you don't actually have a reason to seethe and moan at the tau.
>>98432641Wrong.It was already there before mankind reached their high tech period.
>>98432636Thank gav thorpe, the dude writes pure grimderp at all times. You want to look at warhammer without his influence? Look at warhammer fantasy, which is filled with plenty of normal people living normal lives.
>>98432648>And that suggests the tau were madethey already existed, their genome and development were tampered with to accelerate their civilizational level 10 times faster than humans in order to keep the imperium occupied and unable to advance further into the eastern fringe of the galaxy where the Maiden Worlds are located. A number of other alien empires exist here, conveniently between the imperium and the Maiden worlds. What a coincidence!>that's not been said repeatedly, it happened once, and other instances show that it isn't a standard practice.GW literally confirmed last week the tau are a totalitarian empire, not a happy fun multispecies utopia, that looks good only by comparison to everyone else and you are still in denial.
>>98432651The emperor went back in time to build it in the past.
>>98432656>they already existedwe have no hard fact about the other tau not being engineered as well>in order to keep the imperium occupied and unable to advance further into the eastern fringe of the galaxyyou keep repeating that, but it doesn't matter how many times you say so, it's baseless fanfiction>where the Maiden Worlds are locatedthe maiden worlds aren't clustered specifically in the eastern fringe, they're hidden everywhere >GW literally confirmed last week the tau are a totalitarian empirereread the previous post, the part that's been contested is the culling/castration of humans, not that the tau are totalitarian You're the only one in denial

>>98431911I have a theory that they keep using thousand sons because, outside of the tzeentch mutation stuff, they're the most PG faction.>khorne is all about blood and violence (generally banned or restricted in eurostan and aussieland) and skulls (banned in china)>slaanesh bdsm sex stuff gives people le ick>nurgle is also mostly PG, but the vomit aesthetic makes people squeamish>thousand sons is mostly just fire, bird people, and magicI remember how MtG fans were so excited for the return to new phyrexia set only for it to perform poorly and the apparent reason why was 1. the set was underpowered and 2. the phyrexian designs, even toned down from the original set, were considered too "body horror" and unappealing

>>98432715He overlaps too much with khorne. The whole war thing you know
>>98432706I know that believing wotc is pants on head retarded but mark typically trips head-over-heels to say that the latest set was THE BEST SELLING EVER (not accounting for inflation or the fact that wotc has been bumping up the purchase quotas for LGSes to stay keep their partnership), even if its total dookie dogshit like the Spiderman set. Reddit is also a bad point of reference, but on almost every thread about Phyrexia All Will Be One you had people saying they'd skip on the set because the creepy teeth monsters gave them the ick.
>>98430553and the fans. or do you chucklefucks think GW is making 400 different nurgle themed model kits across a dozen lines because one faggot modeller likes them?
>>98432715>>98432719He's pretty close to chaos undivided honestly. Only thing he doesn't really bother with in the book is anything Nurgle related but then again he didn't really get the opportunity to either.

>In animation, we continue to build on the success of the Warhammer 40,000 episode featured in Secret Level. We have almost completed an episode for Secret Level Season 2, this time set in our Age of Sigmar universe. We have begun work on a full animated Warhammer40,000 series featuring our Space Marines - Deathwatch. This series will be written by John Orloff, with Blur again animating, and releasedthrough Amazon. We can’t wait to see it!uh oh

Is it not confirmed by now that the Necrontyr and Tau are related? Not only by genetics, but in terms of society, culture, caste system, technological and ethical?
>>98432850no, I don't like punks
>>98432851I know exactly which model you're talking about. Ahriman's helmet has a sprue joint on one helmet horn but not on the other. i also fucked it up
is deathwatch the most expensive space marine army to play?
>>98432804Artel W are definitely up there when it comes to third parties that deliver an actual physical product, but for me it has to be DMC if STLs count.
>>98432853Not at all, in any of those categories, the one and only point of commonality was suggested when a necron ONCE almost felt empathy for how weak and short lived the tau are, like they once were, a similar feeling some other necrons have expressed regarding humans.That's it.
>>98432862deathwatch aren't an army
>>98432834>We have almost completed an episode for Secret Level Season 2, this time set in our Age of Smegmar universe.
>>98432884It would be unfiltered kino if only it wouldn't involve marines in there too.
>>98432797>0rd editionI know you're joking, but isn't that Laserburn?
>>98432888They're just going to use Stormcast as marines.
>>98432888Your protag for the AoS animation will be a brown female indian shitcast with londoner accent and you will like it.

>>98432804If I had to pick one I'd probably say Anvil Industry because not only are their stuff for 40k usage, but also for other sci-fi genres too so I can order/print stuff from Anvil for other games outside Warhammer 40k.I do like other 3rd parties like Tortuga, Victoria, Madrobot, and Kromlech.
>>98432882listen bro you gonna answer my question or not
>>98432850They ruined Goliaths...
>>98432834>>98432847>fully animated warhammer 40k show with blur studiosAre the render farms for that show going to have to be as big as AI data centres? Would be a better usage of water if the Warhammer 40k animated show turns out to be kino.Will they allow for wacky shit like that Resident Evil gunfight?
>>98432910Huh? Goliaths are one of the least changed warbands, probably only second to Orlocks. Now Van Saar on the other hand...
>>98432884>>98432926 (me)Will an Age of Sigmar animated show done well make the popularity of AoS soar like vidya games like Vermintide and Total War Warhammer did with Warhammer Fantasy? I think GW tried with an AoS vidya game and did about as well as Privateer Press' Warmachine Tactics vidya game nobody remembers yet somehow is still available for sale, but supposedly doesn't even work anymore.
>>98432929They let foids in, it's ruined
>>98432909nah
>>98432798Armageddon's single print run is supposed to last until the christmas boxes come out.
>>98432862Isn't it still GSC, who are expected to spam cheap infantry that still come in boxes priced like space marine squads
>>98432943Really? That's "ruined" for you?
>>98432931it would be funny and ironic if that happened considering the smegmarites always push back against any supposed rise in popularity for WHFB from the video games. though at the same time they think anyone shitting on their game are /v/ermin who only play Total War and Vermintide...
>>98432931AoS cannot stand on its own feet as long as it's built on the end times, as long as it keeps parading DEI shit instead of actual characters, as long as they don't cram a pair of autists on drugs in a room to obsessively make sense of the realms, and as long as the online reception of the setting is filtered firstly and mostly through the lenses of retarded 40k loretubers who can't get the first or second shit right even if they were paid to do so.They are addressing the last two points by scrapping the realms and making it another normal world, and by making the misconceptions retards have had for the past 10 years into the actual canon, but they will never address the first two points.So AoS is doomed forevermore.
>>98432931>Will an Age of Sigmar animated show done well make the popularity of AoS soarHonestly, no. A good videogame MIGHT, but these shows are more for people who are already fans than for onboarding newbies. If you watch the Secret Level with Teedus, it explains precisely fuckall and leaves you completely in the dark as to what's going on if you don't know 40K and especially if you don't know Titus. I watched it with some friends who only have a passing knowledge of 40K and they were mostly lost on what was happening half the time.AoS ironically kinda has too much going on that no singular piece of media can capture the full "vibe" of the setting with all the Realms and shit. You'd either need to hard focus on the little guy (my suggestion would be a -Tidelike that focuses on a new Cities of Sigmar settlement with a basebuilding element where you build up your settlement in between missions to survive sieges by various foes) or something that captures the realm-hopping scope of the setting (my suggestion would be a Soulslike with Realmhopping like Remnant where a Sigmarine is hopping between different realms to fight different enemies and get Realm-aspected weapons to better fight enemies in other Realms)
>>98432966It completely craters their whole Gender War dichotomy they had going on with the Eschers and downgrades them to a mere non-Khorne aligned Corpsegrinder Cult. So yes, kinda fucking ruins them.
>>98432862>autistically buy DW boxes so you have 5 of the gravis Deathwatch armour, 5 of the scouts and 10 of the intercessors for each unit>or>just buy the normal boxes and put deathwatch colors and hsoulderpads on themSo expensive....

>>98433038No one fucking cares, fuck off with these living cancers infesting every hobby with e-celeb drama and ideology discussion
>>98433033Yeah, they enjoyed the visuals but it barely told a story and relied heavily on you already knowing who Tidus is and that he's Chaos resistant or whatever.
>>98433052Okay but why is Tidas chaos resistant?
>>98433059He’s a named character
>>98433059That's the ongoing mystery of SM1 and 2, yes. But without that knowledge the short implies he dodges the daemon's mindrape and fromsoft instakill grab just because he's the white main character.
>>98433059Willpower
>>98433038Is he gonna pick Nurgle as his army?
>>98433059he's just built different
When are they gonna bring this nigga back?
>>98433059He eats his vegetables.
>>98433059He's so boring the plot stops plotting in his presence, that's the trick to beating demons, boring them to them, because they exist only from and for drama.
>>98433059Because he's built different. That's it.
>>98433076They aren't, you missed it, get a recast.
>>98433059latent psychic potential so he can unlock psychic powers and become a librarian by the time of space marine 4
>>98433038Based, I like Asmon he's pretty chill
>>98433076Just buy it when it's available nigga, just be there when he released. Don't tell me you started 40k yesterday
>>98433076He was in your 8th edition starter box, anon?
>>98433014outing yourself as a newfag. Talonstrike or Indomitus cost like 200 USD per unit because they take 3 different kits and an upgrade sprue.
>>98433038This dude is a literal lolcow freak dont post that shit here. he lives in a roach colony its digusting.
>>98433059In the short it's showing Titus is literally a psychopath incapable of a fear response.It's always said that Marines know no fear, but in all media it's shown that they do know the fear response but have trained themselves not to give into it. The daemon invaded the minds of the marines and poked at the most primal fear centers of their minds, beyond all their training and safeguards, and when they struck out against what they thought was a threat, it turned out they struck themselves in fear.The daemon couldn't provoke that from Titus because there was no fear response to be found. And we see Metaurus proctoring Titus's initiation and even then, Titus' lack of fear response as a child disturbed and frightened him. It's pretty fucking shrimple. But you're too stupid to even spell his name right, so I don't know why I could expect you to get what's right fucking there in front of you.
>>98432615Ok, but what do they wear in each Space Marine chapter?
>>98433125I dunno.
>>98432943... cant you just use only male heads and ritually burn the foid heads because it upsets you so much?
>>98432854You can play riot cops if you like.
>>98433114He is the everyman. I think he is alright. Bad taste in women though.
>>98433147What does Jews have to do with this? Why are you so mad?
>>98433136The model's body is not unisex
>>98433038>>98433068rate his haul
>>98433159this is no different from vtumors painting warhammer as a way of extracting money from pathetic beta males who desperately want to believe a cute girl could share their manchild toy interests
>>98433159>>98433038Fuck off and buy an ad.
>>98433167Oh you're one of those. I hope things get better for you man.
>>98433159>he really went for NurgleKek
>>98433038Mentioning any eceleb on /tg/ should be a bannable offence with no exceptions.
>>98433159>Went for Death GuardThat's pretty self-aware, nids for the roach king would have been funny too.
>>98433167God I really want to see your models.
>>98432020Citadel Journal 40
>>98433159Why the random Armageddon and space wolf dread purchases
>>98433167asmoniggers are some of the lowest quality people on the planet. its just a loop of claiming to be normal then swapping to seething at normies forever. dont waste your breath
>>98433125its pretty much as you expect. they all wear whatever flanderization of the culture’s garb they’re based on. salamanders and ultramarines wear togas, dark angels and blood angels wear hoods/monk robes, ect. the only notable exception is space wolves who don’t wear viking tunics, but instead go fully nude to embrace their inner wolf.
>>98433143He's not exactly an everyman, his family was extremely poor and very white trash, which is not exactly everyone, and he spent 15 years playing WOW very hard so despite being a nerd he has an unusually narrow experience of nerd stuff for someone of his age and level of investment in video games as a hobby. Despite that he's not autistic or mentally ill so he has very normal gamer opinions despite being kind of gross, which hes also self aware about.
>>98433159Solid, 8.5/10 would have bought glue and a mold line scraper, because the mold lines look quite bad on nurgle.
>>98433112That.... has nothing to do with being a newfag. You are, ironically, a retarded newfag.
>>98433213trve whvte gvblvn
>>98433038This nigga got buck broken by dark souls and never recovered. It's a shame, transmog competitions and such used to be fun.
>>98433227actually no you are the newfag and I am the chad oldfag>>98433217nothing about him is normal and pretending his is normal is just pathetic
>>98433158>dudes work in hospitality
>>98433217>very normal gamer opinionssee >>98433215they literally just say the same 2 things on loop
>>98433118nta but thats dumbif the daemon is poking at the most primal fear centers of the mind being a psychopath shouldn’t change anythingpsychopathy involved higher order consciousness, it has nothing to do with basic neurology, if the daemon is poking around in his hypothalamus he should be successful unless titus is literally an underdeveloped drooling moron
>>98433246Hospitality is the second largest employment sector in the US. 49% of hospitality workers are male, and 65% of professional cooks/chefs are male as well as 55% of managers are male.

>>98432943that's a woman?
>the roach gets a gf>A new hobby>Cleans his houseWhat is the issue?
>>98433217this hes pretty much just a fucking chud lol
>>98433269roid bitches are hot
>>98433159I'm not sure on all of the $ prices but the 2nd Battleforce is a total waste at an extra $250, might as well get 2 combat patrols for $240 or 1 and just buy 1 lot of Plague Marines + Rhino and 2 Biologus Putrifier/Foul Blightspawn/Poopman Boximus, GW being GW means you have to get 2 boxes of Blightlords though since 3 + 5 is 8 and you run them in squads of 10.
>>98433167imagine caring this much about what some random eceleb does, you sound obsessed
>>98433301you think a multi millionaire with no life cares about how efficient his fake buy in costs? it just exists to milk sub for neetbux because fans get excited their digital daddy might share their hobby with them. Guarantee you he pulled 10k+ on that stream alone.
>>98433136>can you just use a male head on this female body???That's just standard GW practice, dipshit. It's the body that's the problem.
>>98433271He'll fit right in then, 40k is a chud hobby
>>98433189Does that include vtumors or are you gonna make an exception for the ritualposter?
>>98433159>Great unclean one (Asmongold)hehehehe
>>98433269It's a 9/10 in LONDON. Just like this.
>>98433159>space wolveslul, yiffs are NEVER beating the allegations>nurgleLeaning into the memes I guess.
>>98433320The ritualposter just posts a meme, he doesn't mention what some eceleb is doing. That's like saying someone who posts pic related is eceleb posting.
>>98433327how do we come to the point that some shitty fantasy army has 50 variations of ugly ass star wars monsters in plastic but we still don't have a plastic squiggoth kit for orks? Fuck you GW CUNTS
>>98433346>other side is even worselmao
>>98433343When you realize how many more 40k kits and options we could have if Fantasy had just been squatted completely with End Times instead of turned into AoS, and every AoS release had been more 40k releases instead, it is mindbreaking. Absolute pit of despair.
>>98433355Shhh you're blowing it
>>98433171>no different from vtumors painting warhammer as a way of extracting money from pathetic beta males who desperately want to believe a cute girl could share their manchild toy interestsI think the audience knows the interest in 40k is all an act but don't acknowledge that.In all seriousness how does one accurately tell if the interest in Warhammer 40k is genuine or an act? Is it difficult? Same goes for newcomers in general of things. How do you tell if they're genuine or just chasing trends?
This culture war shit ties itself in circles all the time. Grow up and talk about painting plastic soldiers.
>>98432943Looks fine to me.
>>98433338So the answer is yes, you ARE gonna guntguard for ratfag. So predictable.Follow up question: are you gonna throw a tanty and shit your pants again like you did this thread if people start posting asmongold nurgle memes or does that count as "eceleb cancer" because you don't like the guy?>Jason Alexander>an ecelebFull retard.
>>98433371I'm not even the anon you were responding to you complete retard. I like Asmon.
>>98433346>BruhFaggot.
>>98433358You don't have to take the bait but by all means go on
>>98433360Seia would say this.
>>98433370Honestly it's a perfectly fine model and I'd have no problem with it if the Goliaths were more like CP2077's animals. But the fact remains the Goliath's whole fucking shtick is being the hypermasculine mirror to Escher's hyperfeminist punk amazons. You can't add musclecunts to Goliath without adding shamanistic femboys to Escher, which they'll never do because GW are weak idpol queers.
Ritual posting contributes to board / thread culture. I don't mind it.
>>98433343On the bright side you can steal oggurrror mounts and call em squigs.
>>98432377If I made saturnine termies for my csm because I'd never thought of that before, would people be upset? I.e. are they the same size as regular csm termies?
>>98433392 dont escher actually have weak men who are basically femboys? idk if one was ever modeled but this would be kind of based
>>98433360True! It’s definitely not something gw does by design to keep their fans constantly engaged with them.
>>98433393About as much as eceleb posting, sure.
>>98433399>don't escher actually have mennot represented in their models, that's the point all female groups are preserved while all male groups are dismantled even though they are meant as a mirror to each other
>>98433399>dont escher actually have weak men who are basically femboys?And Goliath always had female fuckslaves. >idk if one was ever modeledNo, and they never will be because Escher males aren't fighters, just like Goliath females weren't until GW decided to retcon that they are. Are you getting it yet?
It would be funny if asmon joining the hobby would cause GW to disavow him and state their support for palestine. I have no doubt they would if they could.
>>98433392no it's because GW doesn't know how to sculpt femboys, or women for that matter
>>98433399There's one in a novel, so ws far as that counts yes.
>Terminators apparently lot more viable in 11th editionJames decided to thank me for buying over 30 of them last edition.
>>98433320Absolutely, for me vtubers are just a subcategory of the e-celeb cancer. Avatarfags and ritual-posters deserve a rope as well.
>>98433430They'll just snarkily write him into some obscure BL novel that accidentally makes him hard as fuck, like what happened with Mike Brooks making Basedgoy of Applebees into a badass Necromunda ganger.
>>98433387I love when /bag/frens crosspost in /40kg/.
>>98433443>Death guard captain Zacharias and his cockroach demon familiars
I've been enjoying universes beyond in MtG, Warhammer should do something like that, I'd love to see some crossover models released.
>>98433455Get. Out.
>>98433452Yeah, or a minor chaos cult leader who literally exudes corroding filth everywhere he goes. Found the Soigoy insert that everyone's favorite faggot Mike Brooks wrote that accidentally made him sound way cooler than he really is.
>in this thread we have >decal posting >vtuber posting >asmongold shilling >and finally blue archive posting What a terrible, terrible thread.
>>98432701I saw one for 220USD earlier. Just a little lower and I'll get it...
>>98433468Let's make it more fun then, post what YOU'D want as crossover models in 40k!>>98433463What? Why?
>>98433475>crossover modelsCringe tbqh
>>98433217>>98433215>poor and white trashThey look like normal middle class boomers just not from a major metro city.Anyway I came here because I saw the video recommended to me, I thought it was a meme but the fucker actually compared himself to a death guard champion.
>>98433368>I think the audience knows the interest in 40k is all an act but don't acknowledge that.There are british vtubers who seem to genuinely enjoy it and mori/bijou don't actually stand to gain much from indulging, the painting is just fun for some women.I also shilled exodites to a vtuber who has an autistic obsession with dinosaurs and godzilla.
>>98433465I always found it a weird phenomenon when authors try to write inserts of people they hate and they end up looking cool when they try even without such context.This happens not just for Warhammer 40k but also for lots of media. The Empire from Star Wars is a big one.I'm not sure if Warhammer 40k counts as it tries to maintain an "everyone is a bad guy" thing but people love the Imperium of Man when it seems a lot of BL authors try their hardest to make the audience hate it.
>>98433323Why does a single GUO cost so much now. Fucking GW.
>>98433468My only regret is not investing in GW stock before Cavill made warhammer mainstream.
>>98433489You have a point.>butMaybe the British ones are being paid by the British government to shill Warhammer 40k so that the space marine sales will save the British economy.Anybody got that pic of marines pulling a ball and chain with the guys on it? >exoditesYou reminded me of the Exodite Warhammer+ show. How did that wrap up? Big nothing in the end? I think it was animated by the lads who took those 3D models from that Warhammer 40k chess game (yes that one) and modified them and made GMOD models that got used in SFM animations. Yes SFM is still used today somehow. I like the look of it and want to replicate it in Blender but I fear bricking my PC with it somehow or James sending hitmen after me if I make a 40k animation as supposedly GW was stopping fan animations.
>>98433465what is wrong with anglokind, unironically.
>>98433499>before Cavill made warhammer mainstreamWarhammer went mainstream after Dawn of War got released. It got massively bigger during the coof era.
>>98433396>are they the same size as regular csm termies?
>>98433501>Anybody got that pic of marines pulling a ball and chain with the guys on it?wasn't it already posted in thsi thread>>98433491>make Bad Guy of Badness who represents Meme Political figure the author is butthrut at (usually for stupid and gay reasons)>draws him as a huge badass ripping spines out (THIS IS BAD THO!!11!!1!) and with a bunch of slave bitches (ASLO BAD!)>confused why people think that's cool as fuck
>>98433491>I always found it a weird phenomenon when authors try to write inserts of people they hate and they end up looking cool when they try even without such context.It's because most modern writers are largely unprincipled materialists who think they're inherently morally correct and think that morality flows forth from whatever they tell you is correct via "the protagonist is Good, therefore everything they do is also Good". Conversely, their villains tend to be a strawman of someone WITH actual principles and ideals (even if they're flawed ones or ones you might personally disagree with) so they end up coming across as heroic, or at least believing in something and acting with conviction in those beliefs.A great example of this is how Alan Moore intended for Rorsach to be a loser who everyone was supposed to hate and be glad when he died, and seethed endlessly at people seeing him as the only hero in a world gone rotten.>The Empire from Star Wars is a big one.Empire is a bad example because whatever you can say about George Lucas he understood thematics and aesthetics. The evil guys HAVE to look powerful and cool for it to be impressive when the good guys overcome them.A better example is the Empire under Disney, where they have to be a stand-in for the alt-right or neonazis or chuds or whatever, but also are heckin wholesome and diverse and led by tons of mixed race girlbosses. The Imperium runs into a lot of this too, where BL writers want you to hate the Imperium but also can't help themselves from giving it gender equality and free trans-affirming surgical healthcare.
>>98433505>what is wrong with anglokind,Nothing. There are idiots everywhere including here on /40kg/ and I am one of them.>unironically.In Mike Brooks' case it is him unable to keep his beliefs even subtly out of his books even if all his hopes and beliefs would become real if he kept them out of at least one future book.Anyways the biggest problem with anglokind in my opinion is them holding Warhammer on their hands.Warhammer isn't for everyone as not everyone is gonna find Warhammer to be to their tastes.But Warhammer should be in the hands of a country lead by one of these pic related guys. Who would be better?
>>98433520>gender equality and free trans-affirming surgical healthcare.truly the worst regime imaginable
>>98433522Neither. It should be in the hands of the japanese.
This is how all firstborn marine models look to me.
>>98433522Russia.If China took it over the whole setting would be scrubbed of skulls, and you can't have Warhammer without skulls.
>>98433484>They look like normal middle class boomers just not from a major metro city.>hes normal hes normal HES NORMAL>if I keep saying the dude with poop dreads because he hasnt showered in 2 months is normal people will BELIEVE ITHe looks more unhinged than the most autistic fat "that" guy at my LGS.
>>98433513I scrolled up and if it has been posted, I missed it so probably hasn't been posted.I thought it was a funny picture. It may have been a counter argument to marinefags saying they keep GW alive. Or just a funny representation of how Games Workshop stays in business or how the Warhammer 40k tabletop scene and business side works.
>>98433484>They look like normal middle class boomers just not from a major metro city.I believe that was the case when he was younger but his parents separated and his mom got laid off and couldn't get another job so they were living without medical insurance entirely on unpaid credit card debt and him doing minimum wage part time work for like a decade plus.He got a degree through some program at a community College and then got a job working for the local government, which ended the poverty situation. Because they had a house they weren't ever totally destitute, but they were poorfags for a good long time.
>>98433535>the most autistic fat "that" guy>"that" guy>"that"I know what you are.
>>98433533That's how all marine models look.
>>98433159>the sloppa chainsword-guns on the sides
>>98433513>>make Bad Guy of Badness who represents Meme Political figure the author is butthrut at (usually for stupid and gay reasons)>>draws him as a huge badass ripping spines out (THIS IS BAD THO!!11!!1!) and with a bunch of slave bitches (ASLO BAD!)>>confused why people think that's cool as fuckgenuine question, if you were to do it would you not do the same? For the people who dont who sargon of whotafuckcares is at least the scene functions. like, a beserker slave master is dragged down by slaves. if they made him a weak lil guy or not cool at all the scene would just not work.
>>98433547sorry we insulted your parasocial faggot streamer :(
>>98432850With how flavorless this shit is now?No thanks
>>98433551I think assmongle is a faggot but that doesn't mean I can let such an obvious tourist pretend to be from around here.
>>98433159>literally reposting an AI slop CHIME(R) ad.isnt advertising or begging against the rules?
>>98433520>A great example of this is how Alan Moore intended for Rorsach to be a loser who everyone was supposed to hate and be glad when he died, and seethed endlessly at people seeing him as the only hero in a world gone rotten.Why are all british writers stupid like this>write all the heroes as bad guys>except the one crazy guy who doesn't back down>surprised people like the fact he doesn't back down
>>98433535>He looks more unhinged than the most autistic fat "that" guy at my LGS.You have a very tame lgs.
>>98433535>HES NORMALNo, I said his parents look like normal people with a normal house. You idiot.
>>98433535>He looks more unhinged than the most autistic fat "that" guy at my LGS.Please explain what looks strange about the people on this picture.
>>98433563he murdered his mom
Nothing worse than famous e-celebs joining your hobby so their cultists swarm the places where you tal about them.
>>98433563Lazy eye.
>>98433566Surely someone as cool as you must have equally cool models to share I'd really like to see them if you dont mind.
>>98433513>draws him as a huge badass ripping spines out (THIS IS BAD THO!!11!!1!)You forgot the part where the supporters of the author start desperately pulling the "media literacy" card. What even is that supposed to mean before it got bastardized? And in the Warhammer 40k side of it is it used as all BL books are from Imperium perspective? Or am I missing something here?>>98433520>Empire is a bad example because whatever you can say about George Lucas he understood thematics and aesthetics.Fair enough. I still found the Empire cool when I was a kid. Same went for humans from Avatar. >A better example is the Empire under DisneyI like some of their stormtrooper variants but that's about it. I thought the First Order was wasted potential from the name alone as it contradicted them. Should have been "new Empire" or maybe a made up word followed by "Empire." But I see your point and you tackled my Empire example well. >Empire does cruel stuff but also are heckin wholesome because girl power and other stuff>Imperium is cruelest regime but also equality and other related/semi-related stuffIt has to be more than just stupidity and unable to help themselves. It has to be more than that.It is funny to see that and the old "what did author mean by this" alarms going off. What author's BL book or Codex portrayed the Imperium right in your opinion?For me the proper Imperium portrayal is just showing the Imperium as a necessary evil in the current time. Maybe it was at fault back then, but this is now. Humanity stalls the end together or perishes sooner divided.
>>98433563he looks fine here but this is him cleaned up. he doesnt look like that in the video you posted.>>98433566is the "he murdered his mom" thing like the hasan dog shocking thing where its a nothingburger perma online people crow about endlessly as some sort of moralfag gatcha? or did he actually murder his mom and was there a trial or whatever
>>98433468Can you believe some /v/tard told me we talk about in-game tactics here?
>>98433550I wouldn't because writing political rhetoric and seething at people you dislike is genuinely soul-killing. You should write what you think is cool or interesting or thought-provoking instead of faggoty, bottom of the barrel propaganda. In the words of the greatest artist of our generation Kurt Wimmer>I would never suppose to set out to tell a political story, because I'm not that kind of person for starters. Once you do that, you're preaching and once you do that, I think, you're dead.
>>9843356840k is already normie shit.It has been that for a long time now.
>>98433575I didn't post a video.
>>98433573you're such a tourist you don't even know the rules here lmao>>98433575he gave her cigarettes and a lighter while she was in terminal care and on oxygen and got shocked when she exploded
>>98433563unironically that he's 33 or something and his mom would be like 78 if she was still alive, or something.
Kinocrons.
>>98433582>he gave her cigarettes and a lighter while she was in terminal care and on oxygen and got shocked when she explodedLMAO
>>98433568>be me>never watch assmon or his clones>say "he doesn't look that crazy or autistic">get accused of "being in the cult"Or maybe you're in a cult.
>>98433579it's still incredibly niche of a hobby. It may seem otherwise, but it is.
>>98433582What? Explain?
>>98433575>dog shockI remember the 40k Darktide Arbites edit of it. Does anybody here have it? I think it is all artificial grifting act. He's a rich dude which is a big contradiction.Maybe Hasan will get into Warhammer 40k and we'll see some real autism come about.
Does it make sense to cram a Pathfinder Team in a Devilfish or is transport exclusively for Strike Teams? I wonder if I should get more than one.
>>98433596>Maybe Hasan will get into Warhammer 40kI'd expect some 78 IQ-tier moral grandstanding attempt from him instead.
>>98433604>MossaPlease kys
>>98433574>I still found the Empire cool when I was a kid.You're supposed to, that's the point. They're cool and scary and powerful, a legitimate threat to be overcome. And while Lucas can say they're a stand-in for Nixon or whatever, he either by intention or by accident made them a very classic, fundamental sort of villain that everyone can relate to. He also gave them actual values so you can have someone legitimately believe in the Empire's message without being a mustache-twirling evil for evil's sake villain, even if that's arguably what the Emperor was.Andor is a great example of this. Syril is just an autistic guy who earnestly believes in law and order and ultimately gets broken by the Empire's corruption and power-seeking for this, but he was a willing and faithful cog in the machine up until that moment. >like some of their stormtrooper variants but that's about it. Not really what I meant, but yeah. Funnily enough Disney's best creative work has been in the OT era. Shoretroopers, Deathtroopers, U-Wings and TIE Reapers are all very cool additions to Star Wars.>I thought the First Order was wasted potential from the name alone as it contradicted them.Even when they go back to the Empire they also can't help themselves (outside of Andor). Like that Kenobi show and how it was actually about a black girlboss who killed children but dindu nuffin wrong.>What author's BL book or Codex portrayed the Imperium right in your opinion?Admittedly, I haven't read many BL books but of the ones I've read almost all of them kinda stumble here or there. Even the ones I like such as Ciaphas Cain feel the need to tweak it to their own personal tastes. Which with the Imperium being so vast and inefficient you can kinda get away with having your own "take" on how it runs in certain regions.Of codices and such, the Wrath and Glory setting docs are actually a great take on not just the Imperium, but how it operates under duress, since it's on the darkside of the Rift.
I just wish we could have a hobby thread for hobbies, not politics, e-celebs, schizos, thread personas etc.What is wrong with the retards here, can't they actually talk about minis, lore, fanart whatever instead of being cancerous subhumans
>>98433608leave, asmontourist
>>98433575Hasan DID shock his dog thoever. He even admitted to it later.
>>98433604It used to be required once upon a time. I wouldn't now though, every turn they're in there is a turn they aren't spotting and acting as a force multiplier.
>>98433590>NTAWarhammer 40k is about as niche as Harry Potter books are back when Harry Potter was in it's heyday before JK Rowling said something that may have gotten blown out of proportion.I wonder if Harry Potter was genuinely good and people just say it is bad now because of what Rowling said. Remember those old annoying clickbaits and posts always using Harry Potter as an analogy to the point "read another book" became a meme? That hasn't happened yet for Warhammer 40k where Canada is Ultramar and America is the Imperium of Man and North Korea is the Tau Empire or a stupider equivalent. But it is gonna happen soon and sooner than we think because Russians are genuinely compared to orks because Slavs love Warhammer 40k and I think there is a military company that uses Khorne as a symbol. I found that weird, but I think GW execs love that.

I haven't painted guardsmen in like 12 years, the little fiddly bits are a bitch to paint well. Was it a mistake to assemble them fully before painting? Does it even matter if the parts I miss with "correct" color are barely visible?I now know why so many people play space marines; it's because the players are old and want to have an easier time painting.>>98433590The tabletop game is still niche, yes; it's largely down to the high cost of entry and the amount of things you have to keep track of.The lore and video games are very much a slice of the normie zeitgeist now, even if only in the "video game/sci-fi nerd" space. Said "video game/sci-fi nerd" space is a not-tiny part of normie culture, and since Star Wars went to shit, a non-zero of them came to Warhammer.There are a LOT of people who played a 40k video game before (and have no models or desire for models), and there are a LOT of sloptuber consumers that put on HH audiobooks and pretend to be big fans of the games and setting despite never actually playing it. 40k is an "I'm a big fan, but I've never played it" thing for normies.

>>98433590PLAYING 40K is a niche hobby.DISCUSSING 40K is not. You live in an era where it's considered incredibly rude and exclusive to expect people to actually consume the media they're a "fan" of to consider themselves part of the "fandom", anon.

I haven't read those yet. How does Wrath and Glory compare to previous 40k TTRPG books?>>98433627>there are a LOT of sloptuber consumers that put on HH audiobooks and pretend to be big fans of the games and setting despite never actually playing it. 40k is an "I'm a big fan, but I've never played it" thing for normies.I mean I think I was like this until around 8th edition when I first got a job (got out of high school) to afford 40k. If I got models earlier it was probably from birthday/Xmas money gifts and even then I looked at models and paint and thought it was the next step from Legos. I was an autistic teen but at least I stayed out of trouble. But I still ended up here so maybe it never mattered.Anyways that "I'm a big fan, but I've never played it" thing you're describing I think has already been covered maybe decades ago in the skateboarding community where normies came in and dressed like skaters but never did any skateboarding so they were called "posers." And "tourist" to me seems to be the nerd equivalent of "posers' but I think the word "tourist" fails unlike "poser" supposedly succeeded because I think poser carries a harder hitting insult "weight" than "tourist" does.I think.If I am wrong on that feel free to correct me.
>>98433604>mossaleave, pedophile, go buy that rope already
I know that this is arguably going to be me doing a "weeds.jpeg" but the arguing about asmongold being posted is more annoying than asmongold being posted, purely because the arguing is eating up more of the thread discussion.The alternative discussion topic I'll suggest is: for a xenos model with a dead/dying terminator, what are the best/lowest effort models for this? I think terminid HQs are good shoe-ins because you can pose them around half-eaten limbs. Maybe some ork vehicles too. You could stick a bag of looted terminator armor pieces on one.
>>98433642>>98433647I read quite a bit of Warrior cats novels and I find it to be quite similar to Horus Heresy 30k/40k books because they both have lots of novels and both have some violence and conflict in them with factions fans side themselves too.It makes me wonder what Warrior Cats got right that the Horus Heresy novels got wrong. I think it applies applies to the Warhammer 40k Dawn of Fire books too. I'm not sure what the Horus Heresy book series equivalent is but for Warhammer 40k.I had a big steampunk nerd phase and read the Leviathan trilogy, and Mortal Engines, and Larklight series. I enjoyed those books even if they were slop, but I struggled to get through the "Legend of Sigmar" book and struggled with the BL Celebration books and even the Gaunt's Ghosts novels.
>>98433657>If I am wrong on that feel free to correct me.ntayrt You're not wrong, you're just young. >lesser known thing gets popular enough people who aren't from that thing start fucking it up is a classic cycle. It usually has a boom, brings in a lot of jank but some interesting things with more people and money then fades out and some of the people who became genuinely interested stay.Its a bit more convoluted now with extensive social media integration into our everyday lives so its happening at different stages in the cycle at the same time.

They just didn't hook me. Same goes for the rules. Maybe it is just the models for me. But I feel the reality is that I fried my attention span to not even be able to stay focused on Warhammer 40k rulebooks.I am not sure if I have this problem with comics, but it does worry me. Anybody had this attention problem? Besides reading how did you solve it? I need to take some time off this site for today and get some stuff now.>>98433701 (me)Maybe the secret was that the writers of cat novels actually cared about their cat novels more than the BL writers cared about their demigod primarch writings.I mean at the end of the day they're doing a writing job for money, but cat fight novel writers probably cared more about the story quality than the money. Not that they didn't care about the money.

It's been awhile since I've read them so I'm a bit fuzzy on the details, but some that stuck out to me are>the local Space Marine Chapter has seen drastically reduced numbers and forced to take on more of a Joint Force structure by embedding more directly with Guard Regiments rather than operating on their own>they also only got minorly reinforced with Primaris and still rely predominately on Firstborn marines>the local Admech has tried to withdraw itself from the rest of the Sector due to dwindling supplies and wanting to only arm and reinforce their own holdings, leading to much friction with other Imperium branches>the SoBs conversely have seen a massive swell in support since people are turning to them for salvation in this time of darkness, giving the local Ecclesiarchy a dangerous amount of political sway>also there's a shitton more psykers everywhere causing problemsAs for>How does Wrath and Glory compare to previous 40k TTRPG books?Sadly I've only gotten to play WanG thus far, but it's a fun game. Certainly not perfect and I personally think it kinda falls apart above Tier 3 play (it's separated into Tiers 1-5 for gameplay, with only Custodes and Primaris being T5) but it's pretty good for a generalist 40K game that allows you to play as any faction. Especially with the Abundance of Apocrypha homebrew supplement that adds a shitton of new Archetypes for every race/faction and some abhumans and such, as well as factions the official content never got to yet like Votann.
>>98433708These are so cool but I'm pretty sure it's a weird ARG and not an actual product.

THE TRUE SON OF NURGLE COMES
Does it make sense to buy the Tau Combat Patrol box twice? I'm surprised how cheap their units are, I have a hard time to fill a 1000pts list.
>>98433668>but I struggled to get through the "Legend of Sigmar" book and struggled with the BL Celebration books and even the Gaunt's Ghosts novels.They're not very good, most BL is just IP slop bubblegum for the mind, but you clearly don't have great concerns about that part so the only answer is you don't actually like warhammer. That's okay, its not for everyone.
>>98433739>Its literally the cross analogueEmperor wasn't nailed to a skull, it isn't a cross analogue
Just saw the Asmon vid and thinking about get into warhammer 40,000 myself. Thinking I might start with Space Wolves. Vikings in space is deffo my jam. How many models do I need to start with?
>>98433780nigga don't even play nigga games nigga with me nigga i will nigga end you bigger i nigga swear nigga
From a purely compfag "best option on the list" perspective, should I put lascannons or autocannons into my heavy weapon squads? Not Kriegers or they'd be flamers instead, the Cadian ones.Or should I go for mortars?I'm not actually playing tourneys, just want to know what's the "best" for a HWS to contest more armored armies better.
>>98433756I would just call it a major recurring theme in the aesthetic of 40kIts grimdark and it represents human deathIts a super common design element for sure

>>98433764This fag can't even beat easy video games, zero chance he ever plays more than a single intro battle of the tabletop.
>>98433751Dude, its the main symbol of the Ecclesiarchy and the imperial cult. There was an ancient interview with one of the oldheads I'm trying to digup that said it was the cross analogue.
>>98433780If we're being totally unironic and not making a preface to make fun of SWs:I'd suggest you just buy the space wolves combat patrol (400-500 points of models and is a prefabbed list for the half-baked practice games at a low cost), but the wulfen are such rancid models that I wouldn't wish them on my greatest foe. But assuming you're starting at a combat patrol level, you're probably gonna need somewhere in the ballpark of 20 dudes.
>>98433809I figured (and it'd fit my regiment aesthetic better), but wasn't 100% sureThe extra attack die on autocannons seemed tempting, and the idea of a Centaur RSV with 6 mortars in it firing from the back corner and running away from any threats was funny.
first time really committing to the hobby, went with what a poster suggested and just built what I wanted- so I started with some imperial fist terminators. is it usually so hard to get the transfer sheet logos onto pauldrons? nothing worked until I started using tamiya micro softener but it kind of ate away at my paint. I would post models but they need basing still and I don't have any lightbox to shoot them in.
>>98433821Just hold the wulfen sprues in a closet and at some point in the next 2-5 years they will become OOP and some dude will pay $$$ for them on ebay.
>>98433815Fair enough man I’m not trying to argue that hard about it
>>98433829>but it kind of ate away at my paint.I've never actually done decals myself so I have no in-practice knowledge of it, but you need to have a varnish layer over the paint when you stick a decal on.>>98433835True enough. I don't know what the points would come up to, but I reckon you could have a 5-man of hellblasters in place of the wulfen and have an okay time.
>>98433821Just looked at the price of this hobby and yikes. I have to build this stuff and paint it? Why do they even show like that if that's not what I'm buying? I'll just stick to total warhammer, thanks.
>>98433829You need to varnish the surface before applying any decals to protect it so what happened to you won't happen. Gloss varnishes are often recommended for they're sturdier, so you paint > varnish > put the decal on > softener > varnish (matt or however you want your finish to be) again to seal it down.

I don't want to build an army full of nothing but hammers or anvils or not making any sense gameplay-wise. I'm not saying winning is the most important part but it would be nice to not spend months only to get auto-stomped every time because I filled the table with nothing but shit that dies on turn 1 while bringing no punches.
>>9843385740k is already mainstream and the faggots have already crybullying their way in for more than a decade.We're past the epilogue on this dead horse beating. It's been over for years.
>>98433857At the end of the day the plunge is too big for most folks. People do not have the time to cut, sand,buff,glue, prime and paint a full army and entry price is too high for people to pretend to themselves that they can.

That's okay, its not for everyone.I mean I do like 40k and not really warhammer fantasy or aos so I get it. If you meant 40k too then maybe I like it in the same way Star Wars fans like Disney but prefer eu in that there is more stuff in the past they like but generally not much of the new stuff.
>>98433780Get one box first. One unit will be enough, or a Combat Patrol if you don't mind spending that money. You need to put it together and (preferably) paint it. If it's totally not your "jam" at least you won't invest thousands of american dollarinios into a hobby that you abandon.
>>98433869>but building and painting an army is a big commitmentMy man that's the whole point of the game. Playing at 1000pts is legit but you need to look at the bigger picture aka 2000pts of a proper army. I know jackshit about Tau but check if fielding everything in the box is a viable option. I grabbed two of the old GSC combat patrol and currently fielding a total of 110 models like a madman. But again that box was godly.

>>98434000Fire Warriors are a perfect kit, there is zero chance they will be upgraded in any way whatsoever.
I dont remember what got me into 40kProbably just tangentially related nerd shitStarted with just reading some books and talking with some friends about lore and shit
>>98434005Good God i want that faggot dead
>>98434010trolling/contrarian purposesprobably everyone here thinks similarly to him in general but maybe they think he makes it his whole personality or something but also he’s a content creator so thats to be expected
>>98434018Does hasan play warhammer too?
>>98433958Goyim Are Miserable Evil Slaves We Obliterate Retarded Kikeslaves So Hebrews Only ProsperG.A.M.E.S W.O.R.K.S.H.O.P
We're fucked
>>98434018he’s very unlikeable lol
>>98434010All steamers are faggots anon, there are no exceptions.
>>98433997>More storesI use 3rd party retailers with discounts (and so should you)>more store for free modelsYou're really going store to store grabbing the same fucker? Just ask for a few extras>more people to play againstSo the game gets even more dumbed down yet complexified in the worst ways possible? I want to play warhammer, not MTG comboshitPopularity has been a net loss, I'm not sure there's ever been a point where something got better as it got more and more popular.
>>98433975>t. auraless custodes player
>>98433993I am, but feels good not being a secondary and actually having games 2-3 times a month.
>>98433739"integral to the setting" is wild. GW could stop adding way too many skulls to every new model tomorrow and 50% of players literally wouldn't notice the absence.
>>98434018He's his biggest enemy, the longer he lives the more shame and Ls he accumulates. I want him to reach 200 years old so he physically explodes from all of his impotent rage as how much he fails at being a human being.He should play iron warriors.
>>98434047nta but that just means 50% of players only have a shallow understanding of 40k. When the actual number is so much higher.
>>98433899He made a fortune playing that game, be serious.
>>98434011True. Recently watched it again on youtube and got all nostalgic. Movie looks like ass but I appreciate the marines being less stoic since that's pretty rare in nu40k shows now.
My armies? Black templars. Imperial guard (steel legion). Craftworlds (biel tan).I'm also trans btw if that matters
>>98434001>>98434011>>98434058Based Ultramarines Movie enjoyers. Still one of the best 40k pieces of media.
Me? I was bought this for Christmas when I was 11 and it ruined my life.
>>98434055No little parasocial zoomer, he didn't, he stopped getting attention at the start of stormblood and yoshiP realized what a subhuman retard he was and stopped engaging with himhe made a fortune doing react slop with the depp case and went on to becoming a political brainrot figure because he chased that money
>>98434039>3rd party retailers with discountsI also do, the point was that with more people buying WH, there's more people selling WH, meaning there's more retailers of all kinds, including 3rd parties with discounts/at-cost pricing.>store to storeNo, but it's the difference between driving 30 minutes to get a free dude or three vs driving an hour to the next large town to get a free dude or three. If there's more stores that's less driving because the stores will be more spread out.>game gets more dumbed down yet complixified in the worst ways possibleYes, that's what ymmv meant. Some people who come in fresh (or were already around) are actually interested in the "older" rulesets and playstyles and trying to have fun, and you're more likely to find them if there's more opportunities to play/interact with them. Yes you'll find newfags who refuse to do anything but MtG-tier shit, but the others also exist and it's easier to find them if there's more of them and more events to weed them out from the crowd.
>>98434063>B-but an AIDS victim and his fat wife told me it's bad!
>>98433884>messy hairedNiggawat? Her hair is pretty orderly>Generic moeblobAgain what? She's an overworked cooking wagie trying to keep gehennoids fed in between bouts of getting kidnapped by the Gourmet Terrorism Club. Are you sure you didn't mix her up with Yuuka?
>>98434076>more 3rd partyAnd yet I doubt the competition will make the discounts higher. The prices are rising anyway.Are you buying from different retailers?>closer stores for the free miniYou're going there once a month>newfag yes, but interested in old rulesI will give you that one. and then take it back, since any newfag that is interested in old rules was gonna discover 40k at some point regardless of popularity.
Are Tankbustas/Wrecka crew boy sized or nob sized?
>>98434090Was for >>98433919No clue how that happened.
>>98433935>what makes a 40k army one that would farm aura?Orks. They want to spam their WAAAGH aura as much as possible, so they have to farm as many ways to pop WAAAGH as possible.
Any tacticus gamers?
>>98434095Boy sized and they have a nob leading them
>>98434088The movie has SOVL unlike the majority of sloptubers.
>>98434045To be fair if stopped being secondary once i got new, better paying job, found LFGS near me, and i bought my first combat patrol box
Do I really need to bring heavy destroyers for tank hunting when my basic warriors cause glancing hits on 6s? How reliable is gauss really? I'm also bringing a monolith but feel like that shouldn't be my only source of penetrating hits.
>>98433937>stinky /pol/tard with a horde of midwit cultists>evil corporation that wants to make Warhammer about how PoC demiqueer Dark Eldar are just misunderstood and marginalized >unfunny /pol/tard with a horde of midwit cultistsI'd rather the franchise not grow thanks
>>98434088These two are fun if you forget the tumblr type shit they throw at you.The UM movie isn't perfect, but it's great. Maybe someday someone can "update" it with some better visuals (no primaris) and/or rework it to make sense with the fluff.I could see it work if they are made to be scouts instead, for instance.
>>98434039>I use 3rd party retailers with discounts (and so should you)I don't, but it makes me wonder:Why does every LGS sell stuff at MSRP when they can use the 15% discount GW gives them to move more product? Buying a $250 battleforce is pants on head retarded, but selling it for $212.5 and suggesting the buyer use that $40 savings to buy paints or other models lets them move even more stuff. Otherwise people will look elsewhere for a better deal and they sell nothing at all.
>>98434126>critical is /pol/tardIsn't he woke?
>>98434041pissy clown bitch detected
>>98434132/leftypol/ is still /pol/
>>98434132He's a fence sitter who waits until he can echo whatever the popular sentiment is, so extremists on either side declare him an agent of the other.
>>98433937>says milquetoast political opinions and NOOO DEY CANCELLED ME clickbait videos>can't even play gacha or Star Fox right>can't play RTS so he has to play a severely dumbed down console RTS likely to be nothing alike Total WarIt all makes sense.
>>98434132kind ofhe said he was okay with kids transitioningbut yeah he likes necrons
>>98434129>limbus companyI know this is an anonymous website and all but it's still way out of pocket to just come out as a pedophile like that.
>>98434112Come on, at least dreadanon is fine
>>98434010Oh my fucking god, like he and his cronies weren't already obnoxious enough when he got into XIV.
>>98434088When she was skinny she was kinda hot. Also their earlier videos were fine before barinworms attacked
>>98434131>don't I do*, my retarded phone autocorrected to don't for some reason. I can sit with my thumb up my ass for a week as some LGS in the middle of Utah ships it to me instead of falling for fomo. If I ever did buy full price I'd just order from GW for their lifetime replacement policy.
>>98434146>dreadanonFuck that content scraping faggot. I saw him straight up copy and paste two posts from one thread as the OP and first reply of another just so he could voice it with a more clean background.
>>98434152You just click winrate button. Also it's from the same dude that made lobotomy corporation
>>98434094>the prices are rising anywayThe price issue is on competition in games people are willing to play. If people en masse decided one day to play Bolt Action or Konflikt '47 instead of 40k, GW would then have to consider competitive pricing, but no matter how many people say "try other games" or play those other games with their 40k friends, it never sticks. This isn't an argument on stores selling 40k minis, it's an argument about GW not having ample competition in the mini wargame space (largely due to consumer laziness and "comfort brands").>going there once a monthYea, but making a drive that's 30 minutes is more doable and convenient than an hour. I can take 1.5-2 hours out of a Saturday no questions asked every month, I can't do that with 3-5 hours that a trip to the next city would be. Some of us have lives, responsibilities and families who have their own schedules we have to work around, removing friction on this means more chance to take advantage of it.No, I don't want sympathy or anything, it's just a reason for this being a positive for some.>at some point regardlessGoalpost moving, but I'll engage itThe chance of your "regardless" being sooner than later increases if they are introduced by a larger spread, as well as there being more old rules people as a whole due to the total population increasing.
>>98434139all this yet somehow makes millionssounds pretty based
>>98434010>pretending1.) Steamers in general are faggots worthy of the utmost contempt 2.) He just exists to farm drama and is only willing to say what won't get him permanently banned on Twitch even if he already has enough money to live the rest of his life worry-free3.) He openly admits to just saying what gets him clicks and and engagement, in spite of, again, having more money than he knows what to do with
>>98431962Training isn't something you deposit into people like water into a jug.Cadians and Kriegers and trained to be competent and then continually drilled on that competence, same with fire warriors.Scions are trained to be exemplary, those that fail to meet that standard don't become scions.Cadians and Kriegers that prove themselves exemplary are elevated to Kasrkin or combat engineers.

>>98434131I think it's probably a contract thing. I'm wildly guessing really. Maybe they don't do the discount because they get a bigger margin? Would need to ask a store owner directly>>98434167The problem isn't the game, it's the miniatures. People play shit games all the time. If you look at video games, for instance, people play some of the most garbage, badly designed, purposefully exploitative and draining shit ever. But you know what sells? Graphics and story.Nobody cares about WW2, that's still proper nerd shit. If you look at other miniature sellers, it's either historicals (again, normalfags always hated nerd shit); or utterly boring. It's actually depressing how barren the miniature landscape is.I fully understand why GW has an effective monopoly when you look at other miniature sellers and they are not even trying. And that's not even mentioning the "we're selling warhammer proxies for people who just don't want to buy GW shit" which are also extremely shit and derivative.>goalpost movingThe argument is that popularity brings the newfag, I'm telling you that's debatable, how the fuck is that a goalpost move?
>>98434133>funny elf clowns killed a bunch of golden bananas one time>bananas still endlessly seethe about it despite dying to more embarrassing shit in other stories How do they do it? Must be an Eldar thing.
>>98434199oh i thought you were mad cuz I insulted clowns its because of some obscure lore shit okay
>>98434010My personal reason for disliking much of his part of the political spectrum, but streamers and Twitter journalists like him specifically, is they hardly make anything. They'll bitch about politics on stream for donations but when's the last time they made anything? Any actual product? Even indie projects they try often fizzle out or become never released scams that still take donations. There are many successful indie projects out there but they take talent, commitment and skill those guys lack.
>>98434204>fraudstodesfags still seething over clowns to this day Eldar have once again proven their superiority.
Why can I take Chaos Knight allies as Daemons but not CSM?
>>98434090>Her hair is pretty orderlyit's wrapped and draped over her horns with no care
>>98434198On the other sci-fi minis games, people don't play SW Legion either despite being the biggest IP probably ever, but I guess that's down to Disney nuking SW's popularity instead. People never played the older SW tabletop games either, it was always 40k (or historical games if you were an old man) IME. 40k is DnD for wargaming unfortunately, only hipsters, contrarians and enthusiasts even consider the other options.>how the fuck is that a goalpost move?I said that increasing the amount of newfags would increase the amount of people wanting to play older rulesets by simply having more of them and more interactions in all relevant ways; you then moved to "they'd get into the old rules regardless" which is a goalpost move ignoring the fact that a non-zero of "good" fans will not have been made aware without the growth of the game as a whole. Yes it's a trope, but entirely discrediting the "not like the others" latecomers by making an assumption of how and when they'd get into the game is just side-stepping my original claim on that front.I'm not looking to start an argument, just how it seemed to me reading it.
>>98432853what.........stop drinking lead paint.
>>98434255> ignoring the fact that a non-zero of "good" fans will not have been made aware without the growth of the game as a whole.I disagreed with that, not ignored.
i love how on topic and not shit the threads have been
