Or do you prefer the grim and the dark aspects of painting minis?
>we did it horus>we found the warhammerHOLY KINO
>>98446620>TQI like a mix, vibrant colours mixed with the grim dark shit. I think too much of either one doesn't look good
>>98446660I hate this fucking stateAlso are Tau hard to paint?
So I got a 1k (casual) tourney this weekend and I'm struggling to decide between my Cursed Legion list, and my Veterans of the Long war CSM list. What do (you) think, I'll post them in a second. I dont know if either is really "competively viable" cause I sorta just built what sounded good within my price rangethis tourney is mostly just for fun cause itll be the last 1k tourney

>>98446664Honestly, just take whatever you think will be the most fun to play around with. It is casual after all, so having a fluffy larp list is the best time you can go with.
>>98446641I guess if I stick to votann plasma/volkite weapons it should look plausibly daot-y and not too xenosymaybe throw some purity seals on
>>98446663Oi wash your mouth out cunt. I like tau, but clean colour over flat surfaces and straight edges is best for them. If you have an unsteady hand I imagine they'd be a bit miserable>>98446666Blame Melbourne for taking his voice away, poncy ass fuckheads
Aight those are the lists. Im not really looking to "win" just to not be crushed (though that will probably happen no matter what) im fairly confident in either list, but wanted some feedback from some more experienced anons
>>98446620Glorious 2nd Edition
Wait it's Slaanesh? I thought it was Slaneesh
>>98446683i'd go with csm since you can use dark pacts
>>98446674CSM anons here, do you recommend raptors or do I go back to the Cult Mob and Rhino? I rhought the raptors were pretty cool (also I got them practically free, same with a Helbrute i've, yet to receive) but idk if its exactly worth giving up Mob and Rhino
Do you think GW will squat the rhino/chaos rhino soon? They’ve been putting a lot of chaos rhinos in discount boxes…
>>98446700>uh guiz what should i do please think for meGO WITH YOUR HEARTGO WITH WHAT SPARKS JOY>b-but the optimal reddit point lists saidGO WITH YOUR SOUL>b-b-but squidmar and midwinterminis saidGO WITH WHAT YOU WANT
>>98446707this. in my custodes army i'm running coronus grav carrier, despite everyone calling it shit
>>98446700I like to use raptors and warp talons exclusively to larp as night lord mercenaries in my armies, Otherwise, my WB army is all about hordes and monsters.
>>98446707i like how you made both sides like idiots
>>98446720Then there's me, perfect as usual
Should I get a kill team of a faction first to see if I like how they build and paint?
when I ask what to put in my list it’s all>choose whatever you want anon! Have fun!But when I show up with a wraithknight and an avatar it’s all>YOU CANT DO THAT!!! WAAC!!!
Post models
>>98446730Not with meAlthough at least ask your "friends" how far they're going to go, like establish some base rules for armies, establish a point system but anything goes, establish even a budget or something
>>98446728No. Instead you should buy a battleforce box, a combat patrol, a few boxes of infantry, a few characters, and $300 of minis off of ebay because they were a deal.
>>98446731is this a kitbash? this looks oddly good. Minus the whole stick up its ass but when it comes to tau I dont really mind a little bit of anal action.
>>98446620I've seen plenty of instances of someone taking new models and painting them to look old, surely there must be instances of the reverse, where an old model has been painted with modern schemes and detail quality
>>98446620I think having some bright colors and high contrasts works very well for modern 40k, since a lot of it is still based on visual designs from the late 80s and it naturally helps the minis be recognizable at table viewing distance. The cool part is that the entire spectrum from bright & contrast-y to grimdark works for both the old models and the new. I'm not trying to emulate any particular style with my minis but I take a lot of inspiration from the high-contrast styles that 2e cemented into the artistry canon.>>98446731I'm so glad I finally painted this fatso, I don't care how shit the datasheet might be he's auto-include in every list now. Sat on it for almost 2 years because I wanted to do the paint job justice.
>>98446738I was saw someone painted the old metal 2nd edition Hive Tyrant in modern Leviathan white-purple scheme with texture and it looked fucking god tier, unfortunately I don't know where that image went
Where in the galaxy should I put /myguy/ imperial guard? Which places have the best spread of enemies?
>>98446778Eastern Fringe, always
>>98446778ghoul stars
>>98446744Nearly done, head to go.
>>98446731
Let Chaos Idols take this thread!
>>98446789I like the colors you choose for the pelt, I will copy those at my next opportunity.
>>98446793kill yourself
>>98446793you know she has nothing to do with warhammer? honestly she's the most basic bitch vtumor.
>>98446738
>>98446830report it for spam or off topic, hide and move on
>>98446744I was considering starting Eldar specifically for radical fucking colors. All I really get on that spectrum is Ulthwe, was hoping I could find some crazy Iyanden refs since I wanna do teh ghost army.
>>98446842> teh ghost armyMore like Ghost Rider army breh
>>98446845Hell ya!
>>98446738Not mine, just looked good.
>>98446849>1993 is just pure sex
>>98446849I don't even remember the early 2000s kit, was it like the tsons one where it was just the csm sprues with metal upgrades?
>>98446794Recipe is Stormvermin fur full coat.50/50 stormvermin, ushabti bone selecting parts you want to be lighter, and highlighting fur in darker areas.Ushabti bone as a highlight on the lighter parts you picked out before and again, picking out the edges of those.Dawnstone highlight on the dark parts of the fur.Screaming skull final highlight.Then drown it in agrax, make sure its thinned down with medium otherwise it'll pool.
>>984468492017 looks so over designed for the sake of it..
>>98446874(you)
>>98446871Yeah same idea.
>>98446874the 2006 model directly to the left is more cluttered but (you) tried
>>98446702only for space marines, other factions don't have a replacement available for years already. gladiator vindicator and repulsor whirlwind available by christmas.
>>98446731I finished this dipshit yesterday but not taking a new photo. Dust plume looks a little better after going a lot lighter on the top.
>>98446950I think shields on space marines look absolutely fucking retarded and there has never been a single fucking model in the entirety of gws entire fucking existence that looks remotely good. That being said, I like this dude, and his shield. This is a really cool dude anon.
>>98446950looks like a SM version of venetari
>>98446663tau are gay
>>98446737everything is normal except for the fact that one of the weapon options is mounted on the back
Are you allowed to use kitbashed models at gw tournaments?
>>98446663Depends on if you own an airbrush or not.
>>98446702If anything I reckon the Chaos Rhino is less likely to get squatted than the Imperial one. They're basically the retirement home for firstborn gear at this point.
>>98446663You can always leave if you don't like it here.Tau are generally pretty beginner friendly painting wise, a lot of the range has well defined detail with plenty of room do more intricate stuff as well.
>>98446957thanks. I agree that shields with heavy armour are very dumb but I'm leaning into light ancient greece theming (the left shoulder is a medusa head) and thought the HH MkIV(?) shields looked on brand.
>>98446980Yes, why wouldn't you be
>>98446957>I think shields on space marines look absolutely fucking retardedWhat shit taste. This is a medieval in space setting of course shields suit it>Swords? Fine>Spears? Fine>Maces? Fine>Hammers? Fine>Axes? Fine>Scouts bringing a combat knife to a gunfight as their main weapon? Fine>Giant fists that have no reason to be fists because they can't really grip anything? Fine>The above but with giant claws on it? Fine>Shields? Not fine Don't be gay. Shields are kino
>>98447070>>Giant fists that have no reason to be fists because they can't really grip anything? Fine>>The above but with giant claws on it? Finethese were never fine, they were always dumb
>>98446957>there has never been a single fucking model in the entirety of gws entire fucking existence that looks remotely goodWhat did she mean by this
power fists rip and tear, what do you mean they can't grip anything? you think they're boxing gloves?
I keep going back and forth on if I like Drukhari models or notSome days they're the most awful, cringe inducing garbage I've ever seen, other days they're the most hyper-kino models in the lineup
>>98447126They're hulk hands
>>98447135It sounds like you're a retard either way.
>>98447145At least I'm not retarded enough to fall for marines lies>here's your chaos marines bro>they're like normal marines but a tiny bit different and differently colouredThere's that astounding British creativity on display
>>98447149>At least I'm not retarded enough to fall for marines liesI doubt it, you do sound a lot like a marinefag.
>>98447160'ate marines'ate their power armour'ate their stupid fucking pauldrons 'ate their stupid chunky bootsSimple as
>>98447135i love wracksi love pain enginesi love incubii like kabalitesi hate wych cultsi dislike current haemonculus
Why am I even here? I don't even have minis..
i fucking love power fists
Drukharifags are the kind of people that think crystals and nu-astrology is legitimate and believe in star signs
>>98447181women?
>>98447183Not all women, but there is a subset of modern women that genuinely believe in shit like Scorpios and Leos being incompatible or whatever, or that crystals actually have powersSome men do this too, they read grifters and con artists like Crowley and say "oh no bro it's like totally real bro DMT opened my neural pathways bro"
IF YOU DON'T LIKE MARINESYOU LIKE MEN
>>98447189>Some men do this tooNah, they just say they do so they can try to fuck the fat smelly wiccan girl they met at community college.
>>98447196can't be, marines are men, if you like marines you literally like men
>>98447189>#Not all let me guess, you're a virgin
>>98447196You wish I did, gayboi
>>98447206Well...every woman I've met does believe in that stuff, but uh you know, I said not all women because there must be some that don'tR-right...right....
GW are going to sand off every single vestigial remaining forms of darkness in the setting until it's completely safe aren't they. It's too big and popular now to ever be interesting.
Have you ever threatened to dissolve someone’s minatures in your acidic cum?
>>98447220>big knighturals>>98447216yes anon we know, everything bad nothing good
>>98447223It's true, I wouldn't be annoyed at this if I didn't care, but do you honestly think they'll ever do anything shocking or paradigm shifting? Of course not, when your property is so normalfag popular that even Asmongold is into it, it ceases to be an interesting dynamic setting
>>98446620>Or do you prefer the grim and the dark aspects of painting minis?Imperial Armour style with realistic paintjobs based on traditional scale modeling techniques. To me that's peak 40k.
>>98447227>do anything shocking or paradigm shiftingWhy do zoomers want this? It's a wargame with a static setting where mydudes can always have a reason to fight yourdudes. Always was, always should be.
>>98447216>aren't theyno
>>98447233whats that a baneblade
>>98447227i hate to break it you anon but 40k wasn't particularly high brow science fiction even back in it's cultural heyday 4th. it started, and still remains to this day, as a property to sell wargame miniatures.>shocking or paradigm shiftingso i can get a frame of reference what exactly is this to youis it the daemonculaba
>>98447237It's a Macharius, I think.
I like GSC and im not JUST
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98447276That's your best one yet desu
Getting into 40k for the first time - whats my best way around the DA codex/datasheets without spending much/anything? TIA
>>98447274post models
>>98447286Wahapedia is your friend, you can get everything there.https://wahapedia.ru/wh40k11ed/factions/space-marines/dark-angels
>>98447305Would you print them off? Feels clunky to scroll through a Wiki mid-game
>>98447149Deildar are literally chaos eldar
>>98447286newrecruit or war organ
I think my first army is gonna be necrons or aeldari because I hate marines. How good taste do I have?
>>98447286Wahapedia and then use newrecruit to build lists
>>98447328Not much if you're driven by autistic hate for a different faction instead of autistic love for the faction of your choice.
>>98447319If you find it easier then there's no reason not to.
>>98447321Except they have it backwards where the DEldar are the crumbling empire and the CWEldar are the rebels and heretics
For the collage do we have to use a gw model, can we use alternative sculpts for it?
>>98447364>For the collage do we have to use a gw modelwhat in the flying fuck? no, why would you think that?
>>98447368Because i wanted to use an alternative sculpt of something anon
>>98447319You can make a list with NewRecruit, export it at a .rosz file, then import it into fancyscribe to get printable datasheets. Here's an example,You can customize it as you like, add photos of your own models etc.https://files.catbox.moe/1jq1zw.pdf
>>98447301You know the rule anon
>>98447406now will you post it?
>>98447409Its an old image, ended up finishing the bases
dark elf swordsmen are cool no matter the setting
>>98447189Religion was invented to make women behave by telling them an invisible man was watching them at all times, then a bunch of "intelligent" men started spreading atheism around.
>>98447442>Religion was invented to make peasants behave by telling them an invisible man was watching them at all times
>>98447234[mydudes] beat [yourdudes] though
>>98447433It's like the coolest thing about their faction and it's only one unit that is way cooler than the rest of the range.They really ought to do more evil Aspect Warriors, or different kinds of melee weapon specialists
>>98447321>>98447345Why are they DEI?
Are salamanders the most based chapter?
>>98447493No.
>>98447493not even close, they're one of the worst together with space wolves
>>98447472So can an Incubus use that weapon either as a single double-sword or two single swords like a Lightsaber?
>>98447493Salamanders are for faggots who are too insecure to play Sisters.
>>98447511ye
>>98447505>>98447509>>98447516So who is the best then?
>>98447511Pretty much. They link and unlink at will. I think they're special power weapons that used to get extra AP too so they're basically light sabers. They're edgy Sith Lord types for sure. Old 3e version even had long black cloaks over their black armor for the higher level ones
the exalted sorcerer sprues are great and have a ton of customization built intoo bad it only comes with ONE FUCKING DISC
>>98447493Ugly ass color scheme, seem like they could be the african counterpart to white scars but are literally soot black, immortal mary sue primarchGonna be a hard no from me
Give me the rundown on Knights
>>98447525>>98447517These look fuckin sick bros i need to get better at painting
>>98447517It's always weird to me that the DEldar display broken Eldar soul stones as trophies so often and so prominently. Are those supposed to be marks of killing other aspect warriors or just a sign that they don't fear Slaanesh and need not soul stone?
>>98447517ROXASDUAL WIELD
>>98447528>burger>thinks his opinion is relevant
>>98447530You are gay if you play them, well a little less gay than dark / blood angels but still fairly gay
>>98447517The new Incubi and the new Archon look so good. Hopefully the new Kabalite Warriors have the same aesthetic.
>>98447528Space Yiff player, I take it?
>>98447523My dudes.
It's weird how the factions I like are based, manly, heterosexual and White, while the factions you like are cringe, reddit, womanly and brown
>>98447526the 4 extra heads are pretty cool, i like the birdified beakie helmet and the shrouded head which iirc is the only tsons face bit we have so far and its 10 years old btw
>>98447540That's gayer than the knights enthusiast, gayer than blood angels and not as gay as dark angels
>>98447523black templarsand no, this isn't a racism bit, they're just the most ideal version of the space marine archetype, all the others fuck up in one way or another, blood angels and dark angels for example would be better because they have some cool imagery, if they didn't have their own retarded snowflakey shit or nonsensical issues dragging them down by a wide margin ultramarines are good, but a little bit too polished and slightly more at odd with the otherwise gothic imperiumblack templars just hit the sweetspot with little to no notesgrey knights too are perfect, but only in extreme moderation, not as an army of their own
Van Darkholme having gay sex in a gay dungeon is still less gay than playing m*rines
>>98447541Shhh you dont even have models
Black Templars are good because they make redditors absolutely SEETHENo other faction causes such terror in the hearts of trannies
>>98447537They already do...?
>black templars>not actually black
>>98447541>it's weird I lust after men while you lust after women
>>98447530noob choice that no one wants to play against because they're just a stat check army. either your opponent took a load of anti-tank or they didn't gg
>>98447523Imperial Fists & Friends.
>>98447541Gsc are very hetero as they pump out a fuck tonne of children, can't say the same about whatever flavour of marines you like (won't play play as you probably dont even own an army lmao)
>>98447560>Imperial FistsGet those shits out of the way, they are the only chapter overshadowed by its successors.
>>98447552Imagine deciding on your faction based on how it makes other people feel.
>>98447567Black TemplarGODS pick them because of their amazing aesthetics and actually interesting designs, as opposed to every other marine, it's just a bonus it makes redditors seetheLook at that K I N O
>>98447565Do you identify as the alien invader or as the man who step-fathers the alien invader's son?
>>98447570dude its a marine. you're bottom of the barrel normie tier.
>My dudes: UNGA>Your dudes: BUNGA
>>98447577BT, along with DG, are the only acceptable marinesFaggots that go blood angels or any other of the "dude we're special because we're a different colour" marines are retarded
>>98447570I've seen this model so many times and honestly im not really a fan, might be due to how many shitty paintjobs I've seen on it
>>98447581>Our dudes:
>>98447581t. Gork
Is it true that Nids aren't actually a swarm army, and that's more Militarum?
>>98447574Whatever one makes you upset i guess
>>98447585it's the weak-legged magical schoolgirl pose
>>98447534British actually>>98447539Nah, Ultramarines - but only play marines in 30k because primaris are shit.Read Know No Fear and you'll understand why. 40k as a setting is already goofy enough - playing a more plain faction that has room to develop its own personality without gimmicky shit getting in the way is nice.
>>98447590any army can be a swarm army if you try hard enough.
Someone more clever than me needs to make this 40k, like>our high IQ plays>our fantastic models>our brilliant strategies>their unga bunga>their retarded sculpts
>>98447591It would really upset me if you identified as the woman who joins the cult out of transhuman beliefs, imagine if you were to cosplay as a pregnant brood sister ahahah
>>98447596God help us all but there are too many fucking custodian wardens allowed on the board at once these days.
>>98447595>British>colorKys
>>98447597
>>98447597It's already been doneAlso I want vidya and board games based on this image
>>98447548why do you constantly seethe about blood angels and dark angels in every threadwhat's up with that
>>98447607Eldar on the right. Or they would be if they weren't bottom 5 armies right now due to removing literally every cheese strat they had
>>98447601This dude trying to groom GSCB 2.0
>>98447607Eldar on the left. Marine noobs just can't deal with an army that requires a brain to play.
>>98447646I don't, that must be someone else.
Yes my name is Mr Nona, yes that will do,, and I come from a board far away, and I say that black templars are perfect and blood angels suck
>>98447647is there an army that can live through getting a nerf every 3 months for over a year?
>>98447646Well they are the two gayest factions in the game anon, which begs the question why are you in every thread?
I was thinking about selling my pile of shame, quitting Warhammer actually
>>98447676please do
>>98447676But you never started, so no big deal
>>98447676please don't
>>98447647>cheese strat is when you do anything while not being a marine playerThey literally gave all of the core identity of eldar to space marines. Primaris units are just aspect warriors. They all have movement shenanigans. Except they're durable instead of falling over from a stiff breeze.
Sekhetar cohort shouldn't exist.>3 dp attachment that's literally all about buffing a single non-battleline unit>because it's so strong every game revolves around how fast you can smash their 2x4/3x4 robot squads before they get free too many points camping the center objectives
Well what faction isn't gay?
>>98447647>>98447658>>98447607
>>98447699Definitely not Sororitas, they're so safe-horny
>>98446845 Holy shit that's cool, I almost thought it was illegal for Eldar to be cool.
>>98447697Maybe the pile of anti psyker stuff that spent 10th collecting dust can finally see some use
Battleshock seems heaps stronger now. Are you taking units that spam battleshock tests, /40kg/?
>>98447560>Imperial Fistsbased. truly the only interesting loyalist marines.
chat I'm going to play Tau>massive weeb>love me /m/echa>love me machines
>>98447728Finally, Nids and Drukhari will be stro->nevermind, I can't even finish saying it. Of course the Astartes are going to be the best at Battleshock just like they're the best at everything else. They'll probably get a whole detachment rule that lets them just force Battleshock on any unit they want, like Oath of Moment deleting any unit they want
>>98447697it's 1 dp THOUGH but that means you can only really combine it with warpforged cabal because sekhetars are vehicles and get stupid strong with it
>look into competitive warhammer>relied on stupid meta bullshit like putting your units on the edge of the field>nonstop cheating Yeah fuck "competitive" lmao
>>98447711post something you'd consider not "safe horny" hardmode: no loli
>>98447745If only GW agreed with you. Unfortunately for the rest of us, GW thinks tourneyfags are great and their opinions matter
>>98447699Tyranids.
>>98447738enjoy
>>98447757Make a diorama based off the final delight from 120 Days of Sodom GW
>>98447728Only one unit of reivers but I usually forget to use the ability and it's never come up. They've been really good in my games so far otherwise, the -1OC aura is clutch.
>>98447699GSC.They're so not gay that their entire gimmick revolves around creating a big nuclear family.Disregard that the nucleus of said family is a horrid alien abomination
>>98447728I kinda wanted to make an iconoclast fiefdom build with a changeling
>>98447710nice
>>98447785>nuclear familyif by nuclear you mean mutated and not 2 parent 2.5 children

NOOOO NOT MY CP
Hello /40kg/. I am a total Warhammer 40k noob, but a while back I obtained these 40k miniatures for around 10 bucks, USD.Most of them are Ultramarines, with a squad of Black Templars and a random Space Wolf(?) in Heresy armor, alongside a small group of Chaos marines I cannot identify.The guys in the top left are metal miniatures, the marines in the middle are weaponless and some have lost their limbs, and the guys on the right are covered in this strange flaky brown residue.Given the state of my country, I could only assume that these guys were what remained after a flood or a mudslide.How should I go about restoring these guys, and how do I obtain weapons for my marines cheaply?
>>98447738based. one of the more interesting faction of 40k.
>>984478012/3
>>98447801>>984478063/3
>>98447801Paint them in MMIWG2SLGBTQIA+ colours
>>98447796>DON'T FALL FOR HER TRICKS MON'KEIGH, HOP ON WITH ME INSTEADWhich way rough rider man?
>170 bucks in 2025>GW 5% hike puts it at 179 now>had like 40 dollars more of content compared to KT exodite>explicitly had that Tyranid Terrain>GW explicitly could not include a single sprue with Waystones and a Tree on it for exodites>GW did charge more for the bigger Dossier that includes exodite lore (which will eb scanned onto the wiki anyway) and crafted directions (you can literally do this yourself by watching youtube videos)
>>98447813I'm going to throw you into whatever hellhole these guys crawled out of their way from
>>98447815that's an eldar man
>>98447801Damn that's a steal.>How should I go about restoring these guysWould you want to repaint them or leave them painted as is? If you want to repaint them, soak them in isopropyl alcohol for a few hours then scrub with a toothbrush. Otherwise if you want to leave them as is, I would just glue the broken pieces back on. You may need some green stuff (a kind of hard drying modeling epoxy putty) to fill gaps or reconstruct broken areas.>how do I obtain weapons for my marines cheaply?you can probably buy 3d printed bits onlinethese are firstborn marines (older range with smaller proportions) so keep that in mind
>>98447819my LGS has a tyranid infestation terrain setshould I buy it?
>>98447801are you planning on repainting them or just fixing them up?as for spare parts, your options are 3d printing yourself if its an option or getting them online
>>98447819the most insulting part is that there's no new model on the ork side
>>98447801You'd need to strip them all if the water damage is bad, get a tub of simple green (NOT GOO GONE) and let them soak for a day to have the paint come off and possibly the glue depending on what the original owner used.You can probably buy bits to replace what's missing but these are a pretty wide range of older models, so nostalgia tax would make it more expensive than the rest of it. The best way would be to 3d print with STLs for older bits, but I'm guessing you're third world so that might be too expensive. Sorry, but someone else might have a good suggestion.
>>98446676>runs into a knight player
>>98447738They’re Indians not weebs
How are Orks?>they're totally wacky gitz innit bruv bloody thatcher and tings innit xDRight but how are their models, the gameplay?>mate dis git is a weirdboy innit red magic goes faster because orkies believe it does bruv xxxDDWhy is it impossible to talk to Orkfags?
>>98447844>Why is it impossible to talk to Orkfags?Probably because you're talking to yourself
I don’t get cavill worship this feels like something that should have stayed in 2011
What's your idea for a new unit? I really like how Drukhari have an aspect-like unit in Incubi, and I feel like Corsairs should also have suitably Corsair-themed priests of Khaine. I think an lone op epic hero Corsair Bladelord would be super cool. Give it a free heroic intervention and I think you'd have something unique and needed enough to fit into the eldar range.
>>98447848Try to talk to Orkfags, it's impossible
>>98447830but it's online only
>>98447815shining spears are the good guys of 40k
>>98447852World Eater but it's actually a terrifying marine driven by bloodlust, instead of red marines with axes and whatever the fuck the eightbound et al are
>>98447828>>98447831>>98447836Honestly I'm planning on just fixing them for now, but some of the colors on these dudes are really faded out so I'll have to repaint them one day. What paints do I get? I have enamels I use for gunpla, will that melt the plastic these guys use?>3d printing>older range with smaller proportionsWell fuck me I guess that's another reason why the previous dude sold these guys offOn the topic of glue, how do I reattach limbs of the metal miniatures?
>>98447844oi m8 wut did he mean by this innit :D?
>>98447860Yeah I dunno, I saw it there last time. They have some forgeworld shit too, but it's mostly just random stuff I don't care for.
>>98447852a weird pregnant flesh abomination Drukhari Covens transport. It can hold 6Grotesques, or Haemonculus + 10 Wracks, or a pair of Talos/CronosUpgrades give it utility, like a massive terrified wail that gives an aura of -1 leadership, or a guaranteed deadly demise
>>98447850>cavill is 43The last time I checked his age he was only like 37 or 38. Shit.
There any short stories or fanfics from an ork perspective?I was getting some ideas about writing one myself but I fear the orkey dialogue may get a little grating
>>98447852>Corsair-themed priestsI don't think a pirate's life fits well with religious sentiments, unless the priest in question is the designated guy who bothers with all the gods for the sake of the crew, like they have one guy for saving their souls when they die.
>>98447877You need to read squad broken
>>98447869God I hate you orkfaggots
>>98447763>Literally all male looking vore faction with solely masculine characteristicshttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ygmCuXNVjYA
>>98447867use regular superglue>Well fuck me I guess that's another reason why the previous dude sold these guys offI mean $10 is a fucking steal man these things are worth a lot more than that.Anyways you can use enamels I think but acrylics are preferable for most applications. There are various hobby brands out there. I like pro acryl. Vallejo/two thin coats/AK interactive/a few others are all kinda in the same tier. Citadel kinda sucks, as does army painter.
>>98447840They're actually Greeks, even their caste system is based on the Greek's caste system in Plato's Republic.
Vallejo feels inconsistent to me, sometimes the paints are amazing, sometimes it's awful
>>98447879Khaine is the war god of the Eldar. Aspect Warriors and Incubi are priests of Khaine. That's why they're organized into shrines and come with a little shrine token.
>>98447877How orkish you want the perspective? because you could describe what they say indirectly, you could invent an orkish language and add a rough translation at the side of the page (with very comedic juxtapositions like making the orkish text sound long and complex, while the translation is very short and direct or viceversa), or even have the entire story technically framed as a techpriest hacking through the memories of a captive cybork mek, with the techpriest justifying a level of translation for the orkspeak when you think it's too grating.
>>98447892yeah, but the point of corsairs is living away from the constraints of eldar society, which is also living away from the constraints of temples or ideologies
>>98447890that's just paints, no paint company has paints in all colors with perfect coverage.
>>98447897I mean there's not a lot of constraints in being a priest of Khaine. it's mostly just killing people.
>>98447844This is some weird fucking roleplay.
>>98447886armysisters... they're making fun of us again....
>>98447890This is typical of all brands.
>>98447915I think their fanatics and metallics are actually really good despite the naysayers, my only issue is that all their colors feel like they were mixed with black. Even the brighter, lighter colors feel kind of muted for some reason.
>>98447417Based, keep em' coming. Have you hit 1000pts of painted models yet?
>>98447840The only thing the Tau have in common with Pajeets is the caste system.Yet the Japanese had a caste system as well. The Tau are very clearly Japanese.>Segmented samurai armour with big rectangular plates>Trade Federation level Japanese accents in the vidya >"Tau Empire" > "Japanese Empire">"Greater Good" > "Co-Prosperity">"Sphere expansion" > "Co-Prosperity Sphere"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_East_Asia_Co-Prosperity_Sphere>Mecha from my Japanese animes>Flag has a big circle on it like Japanese flag>>98447889Interesting theory, between the Greek letters and Plato's republic being a "Greater Good" style society there may have been some influence there
>>98447879They don't make supporting characters like Beni anymore.
>>98447927They add a lot of white pigment for opacity, which dulls saturation. I really like them for being thicker and easier to wet blend than most other options, but you have to know what you're buying.Their metallics are cheap glittery shit but a couple of the colours are nice enough to struggle through (evil chrome).
>>98447884>all male lookingAhem
>>98447889eldar are greeks thoughthey even have evil and twisted cousins in the drukhari/turks
>>98447965every faction is greeks
/myguys/ betrayed the imperium because they think that it's fucked beyond repair and that the only future for humanity lies with Chaos

>>98447276>mfw I realize that maybe 5 people here are old enough to get this joke>mfw I realize that they’re thinking about the 2000’s version and nor the 90’s original Fucking hell I’m old. Someone take me out behind the barn and shoot me. I want off this ride.
>>98447884>man who has never looked the hips on a tyranid, or noticed that they all have girl names
>>98447965I think Dark Eldar are the normal ones, for the entire Eldar civilization was decadent and Dark Eldar simply continue being the way they are.
>>98447970Oh yeah? Well /myguys/ are actually loyalists and only use chaos as a tool for more power!
yeah? well MY guys are loyalist... with TRAITOR geneseed!
My guys betrayed the imperium because the imperium is gay and praise chaos

>>98448030SLUT!
Well, my guys thought they were right. Now they see they were wrong, even if they don't admit it openly. But there's no going back. No redemption. They're bitter and cynical about everything just like me.
my guys? they're super edgy and kewl... they're basically ruthless and listen to linkin park and like sonic...
>>98447993Dark Eldar are the "normal ones" in the way the last years of the overly decadent and self-destructive empire that replaced the republic of Rome was the "normal" state of the romans
>>98448030>they made the boobplates more family friendlyAh yes, the gang all about females, being prude about their fucking boobs, how could I forget
>>98448054I mean they're butch lesbians what do you expect
>>98446874This is my issue with most modern 40k kits and even a lot of AoS kits, their basic troops are over designed and have way to much going on for just a basic bitch troop.
>>98448030heavy metals painters have never seen a woman irl
>>98447880>dominatrix>termagant >harpy>crone >gargoyle>genestealer>screamer killer you won't find a more female faction elsewhere
>>98448059>what do you expectBoobs. I thought I made that fairly clear.
>>98448076They really should have holes in their breast plates that exposes their areolas.
>>98448054I mean its the ultimate problem with making female space marines, custodes and now even sisters in the modern era. The only way you would reasonably be able to tell the differnce ebtween male and female in power armor, is you would need to sexualize their armor, IE boob plate, slender waist, narrow calves, high heels, etc etc. BUUUUT you cant do that because thats wrong and sexist and blah blah blah. So how do you make them different with out making them look different.
>>98448030can any of these painters learn to paint womenand also read the lore you fuckschemist gang sounds sick though, maybe that'll be interesting
should I buy the Emperor's Children battleforce?
>>98448060overdesigned is when it's not a single lump of mushy plastic with no detail
>>98448030holy crap this is just like my heckin draggerino faux-troons!!!
>>98448091no, slaanesh is trash and so are marines, let alone slaaneshi marines
>>98448080Okay let's not be retarded now.>>98448085>we're all the same>but we also gotta make X feel specialI hate this timeline.
>>98448091Of course.
I hope duel/diorama comes up on the collage soonish
>>98448030why one of them got the jimmy neutron haircut
>>98446874>>98446887I prefer plague marines as, you know, marines bloated by plague(s), rather than>lol fat and slimey hehe>gross mouth and slug ooooh hehehahaGrown ass men who think being gross is funny
>>98448114Why? What did you have in mind?
>>98446887possibly the worst chaos kit they ever put out
>>98448119eldar fighting some flawless blades
>>98448123impossible to be worse than the midhammer possessed but that plague marine upgrade kit is definitely up there
>>98446674Raptors are cool, you should run them.
>just put a purity seal from a tactical squad sprue on a dreadnoughtYeah... I guess you could say... I'm a professional kitbasher.....
I like orks :D>>98447877prophets of the waaaagh (not to be confused ghazghkull thraka: prophet of the waaagh). is an audio drama and is pretty good for dialogue. catachan devil isn’t a short story, but it has a lot of ork dialogue which is convincingly orky without being gibberish. the greatest source however is the simple codices (specifically rogue traders codices, 3rd and 4th) which have a ton of short snippets from the ork perspective to give you an idea of how orks sound.
>>98448030lol this bitch brought a bow
>>98448180Have you seen the Na'vi? Those arrows can be lethal.
>>98448106>we're all the same>but we also gotta make X feel specialIts worse then that, because you forgot>And some people are more special then other special people.
>>98446620Hey guys, Collage anon here. Here is the Heavy Collage. Great stuff as usual. Impressed that you could bring yourselves you paint in this heat.As you might have seen Defeated foes/Trophies won the vote. That means for next month, any project that displays you dudes dominance over their foes is fair game, regardless of faction. Could be corpses, heads or whatever you feel is right.On that note, some anons wanted a /40kg/ hive event thing where we see which side wins depending on the number of entries of marines and orks. Feel free to do that but don't feel like you have to limit yourselves to orks or marines, any faction is fair game for the collage. The ork/marine thing will be a fun extra.Thanks for participating! Feel free to leave questions and suggestions here.Until next time!
>>98448231Permanent means permanent
>>98448231stay gone you fucking piece of shit
>>98448180Also I wish they would make up their minds as to whether or they can or can't be bothered to model bow strings on now
>>98448236Unhinged
>>98448214Great work everyone! And as always thank you for keeping the collage going, anon.
>>98448030They're really going to drop everything else from that last preview before getting to the Orks aren't they?Is there anything else left at this point?
>>98448064Oh they have but all the '''women''' at GW HQ look like this.
>>98448214kino, I missed the ork dreadnought submission it looks so cute! thank you for putting it together, collageanon.
>have a cool idea for a collage project>don't know if I have time to finish itfugg

>>98448290>his faction is custards
>>98448212I hate it, I hate it so much.
>>98448089Those faces aren't actually that bad by GW standards, which admittedly aren't the best (see pic related). The biggest issue I see is that they keep shading the cheeks like they're doing Space Marines so they all look like they got that awful buccal fat removal surgery. They really just need to either ask some women (lol lmao) about makeup application or watch some makeup tutorials.Access to oil paints would also help get a much smoother, softer looking face, but I'd suspect GW are pretty iron-fisted about only using their own paint lines.>inb4 GW launches a ground-breaking new Pro line of oil paints while pitching them as something that's nevah been dun befoh
>>98448030just stop beating around the bush and put them in fucking hijabs already. it's clearly heading that way anyway. god damn
>>98448231You mirin the collage? Which one is your entry?
>>98448296They're cheap, they're easy to paint and they look cool.
>>98448317>they look cool.Maybe on planet Retard.
>>98448030I mean some girls have visible abs and that's hot
>>98448158>ONE purity sealyou are like little baby
>>98448321They look cool to me, and that's what's important. I hope you like your models too
>>98446744That fuckass Chaos Dreadnought was the first GW model I built that actually pissed me off. I was a noob and didn't know about pinning metal models at the time so it went extremely poorly.
>>98448332>the collageless cries out in shame when confronted
>>98448240The technology is only for Aos now.
>>98448303Didn’t Duncan get in trouble for saying the promo models use other brands of paints when finishing models off or did I hallucinate that? It was around the time he was striking out on his own.
>>98447839What, you weren't spamming lethal, +1 wound and rerolls in your Justforfun infantry-only list?
>>98448180you just know
>>98448214What are the rules for how much can be done on a model before I start it for the monthly collage? I wanna paint my helbrecht for this month but the dead ork already has some paint on him cause I made the mistake of testing those AP paint pens on it. I plan on painting over it anyway but is that chill?
>>98448329NONE PURER!
>>98448369As long as you finish the model during the month it's okay.
>>98448279>only time EC are high on playrates is when they've got something broken availableLMAO
>>98448279>Black Templar & Deathwatch are marines>Imperial Agents not a real armyWhy's GSC the least popular, I do not know.
>>98448368McNeill pls go
>>98448279Live, little Drukhari! Live!
>>98447852bring back all forgeworld eldar models but in plastic, slicing orbs aspect warriors, new models for based on the epic scale eldar superheavy tanks, bring back the firestorm with a new model.
>>98447003Yeah lots of flat surfaces with tau, but I’ve never owned or painted any, they just look user friendly
Does anyone else feel that the brand new shiny models people drool over are kind of oversaturated with superflous crap? Like straps and buckles and keychains and pouches and sculpted scars and purity seals and as much shit as they can tack on? I'm not even just talking about characters, the new ork boyz and cadians are covered in this stuff.
>>98447162>ateNo wonder ur fat
>>98448419Didn't notice any excessive greebling when I was painting my Armageddon Orks. They're actually quite conservative when compared to a lot of stuff that's come out since 2016 or so. Compare it to any of the Nurgle stuff for example.
>>98448419sounds like your average aos model that the smegma bros come to post here while saying >40k bros we lost again
>>98448400>flat surfaces>user friendlygive me detail or give me death
>>98448419no, all that stuff rules
>>98448419Fatseer always make me laugh.Is not like you can't cosplay a fat priest, but for some fucking reason they always gravitaty towards the thinnest character possible
>>98448447if you aren't hand engraving your armor panels, you are ngmi
>>98448439They actually talked about scaling back the details in the design discussion videos. It definitely worked too, painting them is far less intimidating than I thought they’d be.
>>98447477Dark --> Black --> Nigger
We don't use that word here.

>>98448483Anon theres a difference between crisp detail and random tchotchki's on a model that act more like roadblocks in your painting>>98448445it's gotten worse with AoS and I'm primarily and AoS guy. cities of sigmar is the worst culprit. i don't mind their aesthetic overrall but I'm not about to paint 5 layers of mail and plate and leather and tunic and trim and emblems on a 1 wound steelhelm. at least Empire state troops were quicker to paint and still looked snazzy.>>98448464>>98448439I'm gonna go to the GW store this week just to get my free welfare ork. I hope they received the shipment or else I will have made a 90 minute journey in this fucking heat for nothing. (No I'm not buying anything there).When I paint it, I'll post it here
>>98448520>wolfspearsI hate that my legacy is the reason for this factions popularity and the original inspiration for their icon and color scheme. This pains me as a dark angels player.

>>98448653orks and most greenskins for that matter are so textured and basic that they're actually quite refreshing to paint you can paint their pants or backpacks any neutral color and have it fit. I like to go for khaki's or greys on the clothing, then use a bright eye catching color for things like shoulder pads or banners or topknots. The skin can be any tone of green and I like to have varied skin tones among my orks.

>>98446620>TQI like more realistic painting styles, including the grimdark look. The scale model paintjobs from the old Forge World books were what really dragged me into the hobby.Currently, I enjoy the grimdark look, though I do tend to like it more with a splash of more saturated color. It's also very easy to go a bit overboard with it and end up with an ugly lump of monochrome crust if you go too crazy with the weathering.The one style that I can appreciate technically and artistically but don't actually like the look of in-person on the tabletop is the highly rendered OSL and NMM style. When it's not in a photo booth, it tends to compete with the natural lighting of the environment and not look particularly great as a gamepiece.

Turns out he had weighted craps dice (all 6s in one set, all 1s in the other, you roll for 7s in craps so he split them) and was cheating.

I've got collage indecision bros. I'm working on my raptors with the plan of one or two of them killing a blood angels terminator, but the curseclaw would look really nice as a word bearer. I might do a collage piece of either an ultramarine or space wolf walking one down and magdumping it.

This is always a tough choice.I've found that I generally do not get within rapid fire range since I keep them back, which I think makes the cannon better. I think generally speaking if you actually get 8 shots with the autocannon it's better, but if not then the canon is better. Ignores cover doesn't really matter much since I take 2 immolators to remove cover, which makes me lean towards the autocannons again though. Maybe I should just start moving them forward more to try to use rapid fire. Autocannons if you have immolators to remove cover might be the overall best arrangement.
>>98449282>AP 1WHY? IT'S A FUCKING TANK BATTLE CANNON? WHY DOES A FUCKING GUARDSMEN STILL GET A SAVE?
>>98449282ignores cover might be better in this edition than twin linked
>>98448632last i heard, generally it was AK for paint, and windsor and newton for brushes. that might be out of date.
Not including TSons or any other monogod legion, which traitor legion would it make the most sense for space wolves to fight and win against?
>>98449282If I'm fighting someone with a small amount of/weak armored units (infantry guard, eldar etc) I bring the battle cannon. If I fight someone with a large amount of armored units (SM, tankspam guard, etc) I bring the autocannons.Not having to use Immolators to get Ignores Cover might be really good now though so you don't HAVE to send half your army to die to get it.If you didn't magnetize your turret to swap ad-hoc, you should have. The Castigator turret is the easiest thing to magnetize I've ever done.>>98449308Because GW don't know how Sisters actually play to know that miracle dice don't make up for the middling everything else about the army.s10 ap -1 main gun (on the ONLY SoB "battle tank") means you have to get extremely lucky to counter anything with t10 or above (most armored vehicles). This makes it aggressively annoying.
>>98449264>>tfw ended up cutting almost all sugar out of my diet so my hand doesn't tremble while highlightingDid it work?
Whoops, totally cooked the primer on this one.Is there any way to get army painter primer off a model? People online same primer is impossible.
>>98449379Oh dude I fucking know. If I remember correctly, our only s12 weapon is the fucking nundam mace.
>>98449389IME most "hobby" primers come off with paint too, Army Painter primer included. Soak it in isopropyl alcohol for an hour or so in a glass jar, it'll flake apart and scrub off with a toothbrush and leave the model unharmed.It might take a few passes though.
>>98449389Isopropyl alcohol, 89% or higher.
>>98449365Dragon warriors
>>98449389That's not too bad that it needs stripping, under paint and varnish that texture would disappearbut 99% IPA and a hard bamboo brush will strip army painter primer from plastic
Ah...Eto...Blegh!
>>98449389Army painter? Yeah you've gotta use nail polish remover for that stuff.
>>98449407Didn't know these guys existed, neat. I think I'd rather do one fighting a salamander instead of a space wolf. Maybe I'll just keep the space wolf bits reserved for corpses and debris on bases.
>>98449389I've tried 99% for days on end with primed stuff and it barely budges. Acryllic paint melts off though.
>>98448214Good stuff, as always. The collage is genuinely one of the highlights of each month.
>>98448607Speaking of Duncan, are those Two Thin Coats paints actually any good? One of the LGS nearby carries them.>>98449324I definitely buy the Windsor Newton brushes part. I've never had good luck with GW brushes holding together or maintaining a sharp tip.The AK paints would also make sense given how their painting tutorials never actually look like the marketing paintjobs
>>98449412>>98449408>>98449404>>98449403Should I remove it and retry it? Or just tank the damage and paint it up, next time I am going to prime it with Citadel Abaddon black since I never had an issue wit hit
>>98449426I really like his goblin green paint. Worked well brushed and airbrushed
>>98449448are you gonna paint basecoats over the armor for the primer? Could do those and take a pic and see how much the texture stands out through your basecoats and decide if you want to strip it from there
>>98449426>are those Two Thin Coats paints actually any goodThey're very nice with metallics being highlights of the range. A tad more expensive per ml than other brands since you're paying eceleb tax but the quality is solid.
>>98447276>Huh-huh-huh, hey Beavis, you butthole. Check out these cool soulstones I hooked up to my torture rack.>Hm-hm-hm-heh! Mnyeah, Butthead, they're pretty sweet. Hm-hm-heh, you said stones. And rack! Hm-hm-heh!>Uhh-huhuhuhhuh>Hnyeh-heh-heh-heh
>>98449400>nundamkek, I've never heard this>only s12 weapon is the maceWe technically have as many s14 hunter-killer missiles as tracked vehicles in your army, but those are one-shot so I wouldn't count them. A retard arguing about Sisters having any amount of anti-armor would 100% count them though.Yea, it sucks fighting anyone who spams armor, which and is why I've decided to just not play sisters in 11th unless they get a major balance pass, they're just worse Space Marines right now and have nothing to make up for it.>>98449448You can do either, it's your miniPersonally I'd strip the primer and try again. Maybe do a basecoat over it to see how badly it looks, and then look at it again from 3-4 feet away with it on the table so you know how it REALLY looks. Then if you're still unhappy, strip it and restart.

>>98448926I wish I could find some of the old combat patrol boxesinsane deal
>>98449497>Call me mad but I'd love if 40k got the 30k FOCNo you fucking dont, trust me. Playing shuffle board with your detatchments and units any time you want to swap out an HQ fucking SUCKS.RoW from HH 1.0 and 2.0 were monumentally better then the bullshit we got in 3.0
Why can't gw release telemon box already?
>>98449553Anon that shuffle is what makes it fun. I'm fucking bored of the current non-system.
>>98449107Ork players are mentally deranged. They think screaming waghhh like a lunatic is socially acceptable. I refuse to play against them. Almost as bad as the one votann guy screaming rock and stone every minute.
>>98449524Beautiful. Simple as.
>>98449557No its what makes it fucking annoying. Oh you wanna take a terminator squad and a Land raider? Cool take a champion you get a elite slot and a Heavy transport slot! Oh you dont wanna run a champion but would rather run a chaplin or librarian? Ok well now you gotta also run another HQ just to unlock the detatchment that lets you take heavy transports, but that means you also need to now cut points else where etc etc. Its fucking obnoxious to deal with.
>>98449524There was never anything wrong with this FOC, and anyone who says otherwise is just fucking WRONG.
>>98449567Dunno it makes commanders feel like commanders and not abstracted buffbot mtg cards.
>>98449540I really liked the old one because it worked well at creating balanced armies and minimizing skew lists by preventing you from taking too many things with overlapping battlefield roles. It worked well until the tail end of 5th when they added tank squadrons enabling you to really spam, and 6th putting flyers in fast attack instead of heavy support just because they were fast.
>>98447937tau are gay
>>98449570The only thing 'wrong' with it is that it applied universally instead of being tailored to armies. For example it should have been 1HQ, 1 Troops, 1 Elites as minimum reqs for Eldar. You saw some stuf later with army rules where the FOC was modified for factions so I feel like GW also felt it was too rigid.
>>98449577no it doesn't
>>98449492>>98447979Beavis and Butthead can make you feel older when you watch the 2022 version which is now 4 years old.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_fh7d1zYF8
>>98449577It really does not anon, it makes them feel like extra taxes you need to take in order to get the things you want to actually play with. In fact it actually makes most characters feel WORSE because the only reason you take them is to be logistic monkeys. For example, In HH a centurion has the Officer of the line (2) rule. which means he lets you take 2 detachments every other character only lets you take 1. So what happens is people will just buy a basic bitch centurion, give him fuck all gear, just so they can get the detatchments they want, and throw him into a tactical squad. There is another HQ called a deligatus which gives 1 detatchment but its like a 50 point HQ model that has the stats of a sgt with i think a SV2 on it. Again people just buy these HQs to get detachments opened up especially UM who get a special version of it because of course they do. >>98449588This is were RoW came in and worked super wellLike you could take a Pride of the legion RoW, you can now take Terminators as troops, but you can only have 1 Fast attack option.
>>98449599I still prefer that to nonsensical character combos in 10th or taking a single HQ in the old FOC.
>>98449624As some one who has played with pretty much every version of the FOC since 3rd ed, you want the old school FOC with RoW options, it allowed for the most fluffy builds and allowed freedom at the cost of restrictions that fit the army. Example being pride of the legion letting oyu take terminators as troop choices but limiting the number of Fast attacks, and i think Heavy slots you could take. Nothing is more frustrating then having to take a fucking HQ to get access to land raiders.
>>98448653Here's a little guy I'm working on
You can’t paint Orkz without green skin it’s against the official GW lore. They are known as greenskins they are described as green tide.
>>98449624>single HQ in the old FOC.Thats because in the old FOC characters were a lot more fucking scary then they are now. Chapter master + Command squad + A librarian was a stable build that fucked things up.

The answer is not to force people to take certain things, because they will always take the minimum, and they will resent doing it.Instead, give troops attractive rules. Incentivize, don't force. Make people feel good about taking troops. Giving Battleline OC2 is a good start, and is the sort of thing they should do, but do more. Don't make battleline killy, but make them resilient and good at holding objectives. Make objective actions more important. Again, something good they have sort of done a little bit especially in the Priority Assets disposition, but do more. The mission where one player puts objective markers around the board and then both players do a sensor sweep action to find which marker is the real relic that they both want to capture is one of the coolest missions in the whole game, because both players have to interact with an action, and both players have to play around removing markers since the last one is the real objective and they both want it to be near them. This is the sort of thing 40k needs more of. Make battleline get more points for objectives or something else very concrete, and make the sort o interactive objectives for both players more common in the game to incentivize taking them.
>>98449635I just think a little forethought bypasses all the issues you mention.
>>98449721>forethoughtYeah thats something GW has short fucking supply on. If you want an example of how much lack of it they have, look no further to the mistake of allowing the ability to charge outta deep strike they introduced in 8th ed onward.Anyone with half a brain was clocking that as a horrible fucking move for balance, and it took them forever to realize that.
>>98447216Name one faction that they made less grimdark…
Does the thought of winning a game affect what army you play and what units you take or do you just play/take what you like?Do you rotate to a different army if your favorite one is currently weak in the meta?
>>98449774Yes obviously. I choose my army and to an extent the units based on flavor, but I want to win the game and build lists accordingly.
>>98449772NTA but unironically UM have gotten less grim dark since their Primarch has shown back up.Same for dark angels.
>>98449661
>>98449791Wait, are you black?
>>98449797Would a black person play 40k? Dark Eldar even?
>>98449774Eh, a bit of both.For example I don't use any penitent engines, mortifiers, flagellants, or reptentia, because everyone in my army are friends and they're all good and follow the rules.But I also spend time optimizing and choosing what is synergistic and the best tool with the best arrangement that is left from the units I like. I run the numbers finding average expected wounds of shooting at certain armor or toughness, and what I do use is mathematically optimized, within the constraints of the flavor I've decided for my army.I feel like this is good compromise and combination of optimizing vs being flavorful. And it's a meaningful thing since competitively speaking, flagellants are used often in tournament lists because they're one of the cheapest action monkey units in the book, so the decision to not use them is not nothing.
>>98449791Do you ever wish you weren't brown?
>>98448982>calls it streaky>>98449028>complains about it being too thin and breaking on his wet palettenot any of the anons you were talking to, this is 100% a skill issue
>>98449497>>98449524I think there's probably a nice middle ground between these that would work well. I think characters should have a rule where they unlock a certain number of Battleline units, which could vary be faction or even by character, and then taking Battleline units unlocks a certain number of slots for everything else.
>>98449820>sparkplug
>>98449808they're not called light eldar
>>98449890We've been shown that chainswords emit some sort of exhaust fumes when operated and they make that classic gasoline-powered chainsaw engine noise, so they have to use some sort of combustion engine to run. With how small chainswords are, 2-stroke engines (that use sparkplugs) make the most sense.
>>98449718Troops/Battleline should be the only units with OC at all. Or do something similar to Line in HH3.0. Or they should all have Objective Secured by default.

>>98449635>>98449718>>98449885The best way to improve upon the old force org chart is to make it so that you must field more points in troops than in any other individual category. You want to spam 450 points of leman russ tanks? Ok bring 450 points of troops. And you can really get interesting with force org manipulation stuff like “a war boss lets you bring a 1 nob squad as a troops choice.”
IT'S HAPPENING
>>98449947buy an ad
>>98449921>falling for the matte finish meme stillNgmi
>>98448858Or maybe just the fact that bows have always been in 40k because it's a fucking space fantasy setting full of primitive cargo cult savages who think technology works by praying to the magic spirits inside of it and if your prayers aren't working you get machine priests to do witchcraft. Fucking newfag. Sometimes it's easier to just use a simple weapon like a bow, especially if you're a poor ganger in an underhive where not everyone can get their hands on the fancy shit, and some people are too superstitious to use the fancy shit after watching a plasma gun blow up and kill their friend. You do not understand 40k at all, go read lore before you come back.

>She began to manifest psychic abilities and thought them to be manifestations of her own skill. She collected a court of sages to master this knowledge, and amongst the men was a secret Sorcerer of Chaos. The Sorcerer taught Ax’senaea power to bind a powerful servant of Slaanesh to her own soul. However while the Sorcerer expected her to die, Ax’senaea instead was able to crush the daemonic entity beneath her will. Now possessed by a Keeper of Secrets, the woman murdered the sorcerer and slew the remainder of her enemies. She continued to abuse the Daemon within her for decades, draining its essence to fuel her ambitions. When she finally consumed its power she banished it back into the Warp and summoned a new Keeper of Secrets to begin the cycle anew.>Over the following century, she consumed a second Keeper of Secrets and plunged her world into conflict by corrupting the souls of the ruling class. When Laodomida was completely under her control, she then spread to neighboring systems. When the third Daemon withered inside her, Ax’senaea hoped to gain the power of a fourth Keeper of Secrets. It was then that the woman was granted Daemonhood by Slaanesh.Where did your Keepers of Secrets Go? No idea man *Rubs my keeper of secrets shaped belly* BUUUUUURP
>>98450119This but unironically. And the closest thing I'll allow to bows are crossbows that launch sawblades.
Reaper Launchers should've been big fucking photon energy bows.
>>98450098No, it is a very generic roundish hole for the heads, so needs a bit of neck on the part maybe? But all in all looks very easy to throw in some other heads. And if you don't like those gasmasks there's a bunch of other sorts of heads in the kit too. Maybe just google the pics of the sprues?
>>98450149
>>98448858>>98450149That new model isn't even the first time they've done Escher with bows
>>98450149That's a good idea actually, I should print one,,,
It is I, the least PC faction of 40k here to protect you from total normalization by being impossible to sell to the masses
Speaking of sawblade crossbows, do you think Dark Mech would give us more Khornate blood robots?
>>98449966>bow>easierYou didn't even read my post.>poor gangerThe rest of her gang have that "fancy shit," you're telling me not a single one of them could kill some mook and say "here's an autogun, use it?" She's also not just some "poor ganger," she's supposed to be an Escher matriarch, you know, an officer? Not exactly "poor ganger" unless all Escher underlings literally have sticks and stones.You're also telling me that not a SINGLE person on Necromunda can figure out how to make/acquire a gun, despite there being plenty of them around (as seen on her compatriots and rival gangs)?>too superstitiousIf she were too superstitious of energy weaponry, she wouldn't work and fight within "everyone in this radius around me is going to die horribly if this explodes" range of her compatriots that do use them, yet she does.Suspension of disbelief can only take you so far before something becomes a plot contrivance, hole or an "I just think it's neat."

>>98450095Y'know I did wonder what was going in Trench Crusade China. Like are they all just chilling behind the Great Wall enjoying their tea and mooncakes?
>>98450044It is funny just how close this shitpost is to the real IW character that got dropped awhile back.
>>98450209Everything in this post is retarded. Bows are silent (also arrows are easily tipped with poison) which you never address. They are literally used by special forces on stealth missions IRL (but to a lesser extent than they would if they weren't a war crime), which you never addressed. The kit is not a squad, it's a set of various leaders and champions with different gear so you have different options for ways to lead your gangs. All gangers are poor, even if they get their hands on the occasional heavy weapon, they run out of ammo and shit for them eventually, stuff breaks and gets stolen, and autoguns are not strictly better than a silent poisoned weapon. Being superstitious so that you won't use an energy weapon doesn't mean you won't even fight with someone else who does use one. Plasma guns do not explode at that radius. This is not the first Escher model to use a bow. Bows have been statted as a weapon in 40k since the beginning so the contrivance is you trying to explain why there wouldn't be a model with one. Having a bow does not prevent her from also carrying a rifle or handgun on her back if needed, just convert the fucking model. You are dumb as shit.
How does one create an attack/defend or siege in 40k? Where one guy controls a big ass base and the other guy has to reach the heart and capture it to win?
>>98450281It's always surprised me how few mono-eye helmets there are in 40k.
>>98450281Maybe try starting with the half a dozen campaign and expansion books that have had hundreds of pages written about specifically that over decades
>>98450281There's a few tabletop youtube videos that have an attack/defend type game on them you can watch, along with a ton of reference examples from the magazines and such. Basically just give the defender a bunch of defensive terrain to use and the attacker more battleline to compensate. Score objectives at the end to see who has more control of the board. that's the most basic way to do it.
swords and bows are more powerful against daemons than guns

>>98450386Nice.And we know Cavill is going to be Eisenhorn.
>>98450380The tusks are from the battlewagon kit, IIRC, but there is definitely GS work involved with the model.
>>98450258>silentSuppressors exist IRL, you're telling me scifi bullshit that justifies the rest of the setting hasn't improved suppressors at all since M2 in-universe? They're not hard to make in terms of material, even a shitty one would reduce noise dramatically, as we see IRL.>poisonThe rest of the team clearly plan to just kill the enemy, meaning why not just use a gun alongside them, to kill the enemy faster? Having one person not be combat effective so they can MAYBE get an interrogation via poison incapacitation is a stretch. She should have a gun on her at the very least in this case, an autopistol or some such on the OFFICIAL model; saying "just kitbash away GW's bad decisions" isn't answering this point.>IRLI want a source for this claim that they're used offensively and not as a utility gimmick for poorer countries that can't afford the 19th century technology called "blank cartridges." No, don't cherrypick the China/India border guards who have a treaty that blocks them from having firearms, our Escher in question doesn't have a treaty binding her weapon choice.>not a squadThe article says it's 5 Escher matriarchs, alongside the Gang Queen. If they weren't meant to be a squad, the article doesn't convey that very well.>run out of ammoBut she doesn't run out of perfectly straight arrowshafts, quality fletching or arrowheads? Not all arrows are recoverable, this point goes both ways.>autoguns not strictly betterBullets move faster so they kill the enemy faster.

If that is the case, and she knows that plasma guns explode sometimes, why would she fight alongside one, knowing its presence could signal defeat if it pops?>not the first Escher model to use a bowMy point then extends to that older model.>have been statted since the beginningJust because the plot contrivance is old doesn't make it any less contrived.
>>98450344How dare you imply that 40k has good guys
>>98450413>Suppressors exist IRL, you're telling me scifi bullshit that justifies the rest of the setting hasn't improved suppressors at all since M2 in-universe? They're not hard to make in terms of material, even a shitty one would reduce noise dramatically, as we see IRL.NTA but most suppressors aren't hollywood suppressors and they wear out. Works better with subsonics but rifles usually don't silence as well.
>>98450386Does this mean that geedubs will remember they exist now?
>>98450236Slava.
>>98450386Could the Level Deathwatch thing be Astartes 2?
>>98450433it's a different thing
Suppressors can1. Shift your point of impact by increasing muzzle velocity and changing barrel harmonics,2. Slightly increase bolt velocity and rate of fire with it, which can reduce reliability.3. Get hot and melt if you shoot a lot.4. Increase heat buildup in the barrel, reducing accuracy and reliability if you shoot a lot.
>>98450422Permanent means permanent
Daily reminder that there are no female Eldar x humanjeet "male" couples in 40K canon, only Eldar MEN x human women who are whores for Eldar cock.Also Eldar women think human men are lesser than animals and don't even want to touch them, see Yrliet in Rogue Trader.And the same Eldar women would get fucked like whores by Tyranid studs before letting a human male touch them:https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/ZaisuthraYes an Eldar woman woold fuck literal bugs over human men, she would fuck anything over a human "man", even literal shit if it could grow a cock.The final redpill is realizing that in 40K human male x human female/SoB/Femstodes is also incel fantasy blackedshit. Since no human woman would touch a human "man" while Eldar chads and Tyranids exist. The Imperium's female population would kill all the males and surrender themselves to be Eldar or Tyranid breeding/fuck stock

>>98450425>most suppressors aren't hollywood suppressorsI know all of that with the subsonic loads and whatnot, and that was my point. You're telling me that in all the time before the DAoT, NO ONE improved suppressor technology to be closer to movie suppressors from today, despite nearly every other thing in the setting technology-wise improving from today to then? Why can't we also sci-fi asspull movie quiet suppressors?>>984504381 doesn't matter at the close ranges that Necromunda gangers are fighting2 doesn't matter because adjustable gas blocks and springs of varying weights exist, which is again a "no technological improvements since current day" question as well3 is again a "no technological improvements since current day" question, but specifically pointing at the sci-fi materials like whatever meltas are made of so they don't melt after firing.4 doesn't matter for a hive ganger, that's a concern for the ganger gunsmith after the fight.A suppressed autogun/stocked autopistol, assuming that technology advanced in materials and weapon technology as it is presented to have done so in the setting otherwise, should not be outside the realm of possibility for a Necromunda ganger for "quiet," especially one at such a high rank as a gang matriarch.

>image capThread is dead ladz.
>>98450795Do you reckon they should follow the SM path where you get access to everything + each god aligned legion's own model. Codex Compliant would be Chaos Undivided, and if you pick Khorne as your faction you get access to core CSM + WE - Psyker Units etc. Maybe a special Black Crusade detachment that requires you to have abaddon with full access to everything.
>>98450904More or less, yeah. There's no reason the cult legions can't be supplements with a couple restrictions like no psykers in WE. Make a few upgrade sprues so you can pimp out your havocs or whatever in cult legion gear and they'd be golden.

>>98450791I’m not sure specifically what the other anon is referring too, but here is how I would do an attack and defend mission.>decide the board into halves, then decide the defending half into 6 squares. >each of the back squares is worth 1 point for the defender and 2 for the attackers>each of the frontline squares is worth 1 point for the attacker and 2 for the defender>defender deploys his entire army first, attacker starts with nothing on the board. >attacker takes first turn, moving his units onto the table.>Squares are captured and scored at the end of the game, with the attacker going first a playing one extra player turn.Depending on how barren you make the push up the board, and if you are playing long way vs short way, you might want to give the attacker some extra points as well. Perhaps an extra aircraft for some bombing runs or something.
