space wolves are gay
>>98589867I see a simple mentioning of their favor with the Emperor was enough for you to run screeching for a new thread and posting your usual filth.
Reduce all APs in the game by one, ie. AP -2 becomes AP -1.And I mean everything. Including making currently AP 0 weapons into AP +1.
Let Chaos Idols take this thread!
Who are the Indians of 40k?
>>98589881These are my detractors next time you think of blaming me for poor thread cohesion.
>>98589883nurglings
what’re the current units to avoid buying for csm?
>>98589885nta but he seems to be giving you a complimentand he also has a picture of you two snuggling so clearly the two of you get along quite wellIm more interested in discussing the gayness of space wolves personally
how do I become good at painting minis
>>98589901practice, watch juan hidalgo miniatures guides, practice and practice
>>98589901Just gotta practice frenAnd youtube is also very helpful
>>985899011. Well lit workspace2. Find a way to keep your arms comfortably braced while you work3. Look up basic tutorials4. Just paint, once you understand the goal and the method it's all about just developing your eye and your coordination and the only way to do that is to do it a bunch.
>>98589901Just focus on coloring in the lines, and put less paint on your brush. When you can consistently do clean base coats you can start worrying about highlights.Also watch YouTube and steal every technique you see.
Was the emperor Jesus, or was Jesus an agent of chaos?
>>98589901just bee yourself
>decalfag absent for numerous threads>>98589827>”random” anon in previous thread posts facebook reaction gif with iphone filename>”random” anon decides to start thread with “space wolves are gay” post (which has been absent for the same amount of time as decalfag)>decalfag (coincidentally) rears head to start his regular meltyI’M NOTICING bet you after 15 minutes with no one biting, another “random” anon will start arguing with him
Hehe balls.
>>98589901Just keep doing it and learning how to apply advanced techniques through YouTube videos. >>98589917Sadly what you should be noticing is as soon as I come here this person who apparently lives here 24/7 stars going insane and attacking me, it’s extremely frustrating for me.
>>98589859finally convinced one of the boys to play an edition that isn't Current One. got a game of 3.5e, my Marines vs his Nids tomorrow. wish me luck!>>98589901practice is the obvious answer but the thing that really makes you improve is experimenting. don't necessarily focus on copying tutorials or defined styles (eg Eavy Metal, Slapchop, etc) exactly; find the tricks and techniques that work for you, and capitalize on those to define your own style.unless you're a noob. then yeah you should follow guides, at least until you get the basics down. two thin coats, nice fine tip on ya brush, and so on
>>98589917i understand that generals have interanon conflicts/ schizowars but i promise last thred was the first time ive ever posted here i am not whoever you think i am
What do I paint on the little shoulder shields for space marines?
>>98589917sorry, got it wrong. after 15 minutes of no one biting, he decides to try to start an argument with me.
>>98589932get a tiny little stencil of a penis and paint that
>>98589926damn even after primaris snuggles with the bros he’s still all pissed off and frustrated thats kinda sad>>98589901PracticeTheres so much youtube painting content out there nowadays its crazy
>>98589926
>>98589934How am I arguing with you?
>>98589932which chapter are you playing?
>>98589935>StencilYou think I can't freehand a cock?>>98589944Red Templars.
>>98589929alright, I’ll believe you, if only for the fact you have exquisite taste. do you have a proper 40K army?
>>98589948I play cumstodes
>>98589939Maybe he needs some thunderwolf drilling to relax?
I miss space marines
>>98589947>Red Templarschapter symbol on the left, squad type and unit number on the right, same as any other codex compliant chapter
>>98589955why is homer simpson there?
>>98589954Can you focus on another chapter to delegitimize for once?
>>98589896SameIf I ever saw a space wolves player irl I would beat them to death
>>98589958Teleport homer
>>98589948i dont have any figures yet but have been binging 40k lore on YouTube off and on for weeks now and feel like im properly getting into the world and want to take the next step by getting a starter kit or whatever is recommended, painting it, doing some test battles against myself to get familiar with the mechanics, then going to a local shop and doing an actual battle
>>98589956>chapter symbol on the leftWell, I've already fucked that one up.I was talking about the little extra shield that the Sergeant has, not the pauldrons though.
>>98589955>firstborn shitpost can't post his own modelsShocking.
>>98589896he’s very shy and tsundere deep down behind that hateful, and passive aggressive mask he wears. deep down he loves to get snuggled by big burly men.
>>98589964I should add that if any anon has books or codexs to recommend i am excited to hear it and read them im totally in love with this setting
>>98589964
>>98589961Tommy toughknuckles over here.
>>98589971You only ever post gay thoughts of yours and attribute them to others, come out of the closet already nomodels.
>>98589974see>>98589973literally my thought after realizing how much i love this stuff was >i bet 4nig has a thred and here we are
decimate urself my man
>>98589975Uh thats not my name bro? Are you fucking stupid or something?Space wolf player maybe?
>>98589978I’m teasing, I’ve watched countless hours of YouTube lore videos and audio books, they’re great sources for a quick fix.
>>98589973DependsDo you have any factions you like specifically yet or?
>>98589984Billy Bigboy?Silly Simon?
>>98589969ohhh you mean the tilting plate. well in that case just kinda whatever you want, those are mainly used for a character's personal heraldry so they can look like pretty much anything
>>98589993Are these warhammer 40k characters or are you offtopicposting?
>>98590000they're called harlequins and they're a totally respectable faction you stupid gorilla monkeigh o algo
>>98589964same, I wonder if the algorithm is pushing it on us for some reason
>>98589983thats another thing i love so far about the setting like thats clearly a sturmgeshutz iii I saw a 40k model one time that was literally just a sturmtiger too
>>98590000Do you kiss space wolf players after you beat them off.
>>98590004bros models look they came out of a quarter gacha pop capsule running his mouth lol
>>98590009Which of these butt ugly clown vomit retards has the most sovl?
>>98589990> Do you have any factions you like specificallyObviously the imperium of man Its like a futuristic blend of nazis and the Roman Empire I feel like playing any other faction is just being a contrarian, right?>>98589986>>98590006Who’s your favorite to watch? I’ve been binging arbitorian as its very concise
>>98590014Nah all the factions have their own unique appealThe real lore of the whole overarching story would be from the first books in the series1-4 specifically with horus and all thatI enjoyed the audiobooks personally because I dont make time to sit down and read like thatBeyond that I dont really know honestly, you’ll have to kind of figure out your own flavorTheres tons of imperium subfactions
>>98590013i like the top middle. he looks like he went full retard
>>98590008trembling lascivious decal hands wrote thisThis is the 40k thread stop ERPing lil broLets talk about orkz or something
>>98590014>imperium of manthat's too broad that's like 60% of the factions in the game.
>>98590025>decalfag and his schizo secretly want to make outIt all makes sense now.
>>98590014>Who’s your favorite to watch?Imperial Iterator, it's all AIslop but it's very thorough and comprehensive
>>98590026>>98590021Going back to what i was talking about last thred, can i just make up my own faction and lore and use the stat cards that come with the figurines as a rule set for them when playing? Is that retarded?
>>98590029Ok goddamnit you caught usWe’re secretly gay loversThis pic >>98589881 is almost entirely accurate, though my little decalhubby has a bit more tummyI like chaos and he likes loyalistWhat can I say? I guess opposites attract…
>>98590030>watching AI slopGrim.
>>98590034Yeah man go for itMaking your own little faction of space marine guys is how a ton of people started with 40k
>>98590034that's called /yourdudes/ and it is pure and beloved
>>98589929the adeptus mechanicus newest creations never cease to amaze me
>>98590037>Grim.grimdark, even
>>98590014given you’ve been posting tanks, I figure you’d like guard.>Fifteen Hoursgoes through generic soldier’s short life on a fucked up hopeless world with a background on how the imperium as an empire works>Fire Castegoes through a generic army’s life having to fight on another fucked up hopeless world and more background on how the imperium as an empire works>Rebel Wintergoes through an elite army’s life sent to quell a minor planetary rebellion (and more background on how the imperium as an empire works). those are probably your best bets to getting into the imperium as a faction.
>>98590034>make up my own faction and loreIf by faction you mean something like a space marine chapter or a guard regiment, yes you can do that. In fact you SHOULD do that, I'm sick and tired of every game I play being against the same "here's my Salamanders" or "here's my Cadian 420th" so I'll encourage everyone to make /theirdudes/. Fuck GW's named characters, make your own chapter master and just proxy him as whoever the fuck is on the list and is close enough in equipment and size.>stat cards that come with the figurinesAnon, they don't come with them. You just get plastic and the decal sheet in the box when you buy models. You have to either buy a physical book (which will be out of date) or pay for the app. Or wahapedia because UK copyright doesn't really apply in Russia as of 2022.
I like orks :D
When do they bring back the iron hands chapter?
>>98590071well oi loike yew, umie. now com ova ere and kiss me on moi hot mawth, oim feeling rowmantical
>>98590071If I was an ork I would kill space wolf players for fun
>>98590076Bring... back?
>>98589970Have an old pic. It's 9pm. If you want something timestamped you'll have to wait.
>>98590093Also just realized I missed a mold line FUCK
My chapter? Well... we're like, super secret, so secret that anyone who knows about us we're forced to kill... our geneseed comes from the EMPEROR himself... every single member of ours is a psyker, but like, super trained so we don't have to fear the negative effects of the warp... we're super open minded and unlike the rest of the imperium we don't have issues working with other races... and we have secret orders to kill the emperor in case he ever wakes up...
>>98590086yeah man. all of the iron hands got killed in a warp storm on their way to Emprah Burgers. shit was tragic. didn't you hear?
apologize if im increasingly incoherent the vodky is setting in >>98590042kek>>98590065>>98590040>>98590038Based thank you I was wanting to come up with a little lore treatment for my own guys (when i get them) > Anon, they don't come with them (stat sheets) They dont? Every “how to” video made it seem like the figures came with their own explanatory card sheet >>98590047Holy shit this is exactly what i was looking for desu thank you anon Can I mix these guys together with space marines? Having a horde of guardsmen with a couple marines and a dreadnought or something is literally exactly what ive been trying to figure out was possible or not
>>98590076Anon I got some bad news for us, after releasing the two characters we have we will STILL never get a finish to the Iron Hands trilogy books

>>98590009These harlequins made me remember the “enough from the clown” guy from dark knight.>>98590093>firstborn fan has a model>painted evenWonder where the goal post will be moved to next.
>>98590101my basic idea is a regiment of marines who have been stranded on a derelict outpost for millennia since before the horus heresy due to a tiny, localized warp storm who finally decided to strike out and found the rest of the empire in its current state and are crusading against the current state of the empire theyve upheld the imperial truth for thousands of years and are men out of time at least that’s the basic idea i have i havent really fleshed it out yet
>>98590104>Can I mix these guys together with space marines?unfortunately GeeDubs is a faggot and mixed armies are no longer a thing, because current editions are designed for competitive sweats and no fun is allowed.the closest thing you can get is Chaos Marines (but not regular marines) being able to take a couple squads of guardsmen and nothing else in their primarily-Marine force.

>>98590140
Fixed
>2026>there's still no reason to take the heavy warpflamer over a soulreaper cannon for rubrics/scarab terminators
>>98590149in fairness to them, people were doing some heinous shit with it, but removing it wholesale was an overcorrection. nowadays, though, they treat 40k more like an esport than a narrative game, so i guess they wouldn't want something like that fucking over le balance.
>>98590093based>>98590128presumably that its not painted well, or that he’s a lolcow similar to what happened to that one other firstborn anon who posted models.
>>98590104>They dont?Correct. GW wants you to buy a codex, and then use the code that comes with that physical book with your app on your phone to view the live and actively-updated codex.Or download the Munitorum Field Manual PDF, but then you have to go and check if it's up-to-date anyway.GW are famous for nickel-and-diming and being greedy.>Can I mix these guys together with space marines?Not as a serious contingent in your army.You can have a couple of Space Marines in a Guard army via the Imperial Agents roster counting for the "allies" game rule with the Deathwatch kill team or the Grey Knights Terminators. There are no Guardsmen in the Agents roster to have as allies for a Space Marine army unless you count the Navy Breachers kill team.Don't worry about the allies game rule, that's not something you should be considering at this stage of getting into 40k.

It's so funny to me that every time I scroll through the thread there is zero discussion about the game.Seconadaries really did win huh
>>98590201You arent discussing the game lil bro youre having a meta discussion with yourself about the threadEveryone else is talking about alliance tables and making /yourdudes/ and shitGet with the program tertiary
>>98590201The general is the containment thread for retarded secondariesIts literally the reason this thread exists
>>98590201bro, there’s been several posts about painting, minis, lore, and the game wtf are you talking about.
why do 3 ork characters from Armaflop cost over $100 while being etb while 3 characters from darkwater cost $80 from darkflop?
>>98590205>>98590210painting and minis have very little to do with the game besides being battleready for +10vpapply yourself secondaries

>>98590215Is this a dedicated troll or are normies starting to have this mentality when it comes to 40k?
>>98590220You’re responding to an anonymous without any models..
>>98590215oh, its that one dude who insists minis can’t be posted in /40kg/. out of curiosity, are you the same anon who had a melty over the 10th/11th edition rules a while back, and thought model posting was “derailing” your melty?
>>98590221literal actual skill issue
>>98590230>>98590234I know these threads have enough schizos, but you don't have to try to find them in every post.All I'm saying is that painting minis is only a fraction of this hobby and there is zero actual game discussion, which is honestly surprising.
>>98590239Then fucking say something about the game lolWe were already talking about it
>>98590221Were you to blame? How did it go down?
Should I make an army of only catachan, tanks, and abhumans?
>>98590247>catachanNo>tanks, and abhumans?Yes3 Baneblades and as many Bulgryn and Ogryn as you can get onto the table

Collage entry for this month>>98590071orks innit :D
Completely one sided game. Calling it at the end of turn 2 lol.Final score is 39 to 20. A score like this is not the end of the game since if someone doesn't score in the early turns that means they're sitting on a hand full of cards to snag huge 30 point swings in turn 4 and 5, but that's only possible if you still have fast movers, and here we see the nids boxed into their deployment.Nids scored zero points in turn 1, and then managed to snag just 10 primary in turn 2 with zero secondary all game (Beacon unit was destroyed and Display of Might was impossible).Meanwhile the elves got 2 primary and 2 secondary (display of might) in turn 1, and then a whopping 15 primary and 10 secondary (Engage on All Fronts and Grievous Blow) for 39 points turn 2.I like the new rule where you hold your hand of cards if you don't score, I think it's a new decision that wasn't there before and more player decisions is good. But in a game like this, even that won't save you.The dice were utterly against the nids tonight. These are some of the worst rolls of my career, but the eldar rolled fine. I would roll hot dice for the eldar and then use the same dice and the nids just ate shit. For example the Dire Avengers dealt 7 wounds to the Leapers on overwatch, and of course we had the Fire Prism just blow up the Screamer on top of turn 1 before it even moved.This is always a ton of fun.
>>98590273Brutal, tried to do the right thing and got punished for it.
>>98590279Yea sometimes the dice just troll you all game, glad you guys had a bit of fun tho.
What kind of music gets you settled into the /setting/ of 40k?https://youtu.be/yE8Lrxgh9kc
I didn't do my research and gave a sister the heavy bolter since of course I'm going to pick the cool gun as I was building, now I realise I only have one special weapon left
>>98590140Why hasn't he then? Seems like a piss weak pussy tbqh
>>98590297>since of course I'm going to pick the cool gun as I was buildingthis is the correct way to do things btw
>>98590303> Seems like a piss weak pussy tbqh Only someone who has no knowledge or respect for the History of Warhammer would make such a reckless statement, show a single model or be ignored going forward.
>>98590278proper grimdark boy.he weirdly reminds me of pic for some reason.
>>98590297If your glue/cement hasn't set yet, pull it offIf it has, you live and learn, don't make that mistake in the futureIf you want to swap for another heavy weapon, buy a box of Retributors and just swap the model you put the heavy bolter on into that squad and take one of the Retributors with whichever heavy you want (and is allowed in a SoB squad). It's actually a decent option in a Retributor squad, you can use the Dialogus and a miracle die to get good damage out of them.

>>98590347>Primaris PredatorI, for one, can't wait for primaris grav-land raiders.
>>98590294That’s actually a good piece. What artists do you generally listen to for your immersion?I sadly think music doesn’t help me focus for painting miniatures. Or maybe I haven’t found the right stuff yet.
>>98590358Grav Tanks are sick too, it’s just been infected by the newbad/oldgood crowd
>>98590314orks and flies, orks and flies, I both despise, but the more I see orks, the more I like flies
>>98590342I was trying to look for the quote, but I swear to god there’s an excerpt where a magos gives a report on orks, and brings up that orks are actually on par with intelligence to humans, but just use that intelligence to be as direct as possible.
>>98590358>gravNo, it'll just be a retool of the HH Land Raider kit, so it'll still be on treads.Same with the Primaris Predator, it's just going to be a de-Sister'd Castigator kit including having its weapons changed to an s10ap-1 "Predator Battle Cannon" or an s9ap-1 "Predator Autocannons."

>>98590341>astartes 1 drops>firstborn replaced by primaris>astartes 2 trailer>firstborn gets replaced by lore primaris stuffAlright I think there is a pattern here where if this animator shows cool stuff based off models they start to get phased out.The tau models will be safe right? The tyranids? Orks got a lot of changed up stuff. I’m calling this the “Syama curse” if this is real. The cool stuff he gives focus too gets phased out for replacement when he shows it off in his animations.
>>98590369It is transparent, looks like he might have painted his silver

>>98590363The main issue with the grav tanks is GW's insistence on covering them with tiny guns like tumors due to them coming out when S/T had a hard cap at 10 and a soft cap at 9, so the only way to make a vehicle overpowered was to give it way too many weapons.The Gladiator is the one grav tank that looks fine since it was made for 9th and just has the one big gun and a couple of sponsons.
Is plasma tech and power weapon tech understanding dying in the imperium except for marines? Or is it just becoming expensive for planets to produce so marines understandably get the better stuff?
>>98590368Hopium's one hell of a drug.>>98590378The ATV is more of an attack bike replacement than land speeder. Primaris already got like 2 land speeder kits.
>>98590376what the fuck, you’re right. that dude is employed by GW too, and its reused for every photoshoot so I have no idea what he was thinking with doing that.
>>98590389nobody understands shit about tech in the imperium. anyway you just see more marines with fancy stuff because they’re elites; the amount of marines with plasma and power weapons is probably not even 1/100000th of the amount the guard has, when you consider how many more guard there are than marines.
>>98590389One of the most commonly produced vehicles in the Guard has plasma sponson guns as a standard option from the factory, and the Imperium makes sure every single Guard officer above the rank of sergeant gets a Power Sword or a Power Fist at least offered to him.>>98590399It's not hopium, just my "what I'd do to do x" based on the cheapest way to revitalize the kits because the Predator clearly was popular and GW are prone to doing things in the cheapest way possible.I don't even play space marines, I just hate how grav vehicles look vs. tracked ones.
Nyoom.
Should I try and edge highlight or drybrush my army?
>>98590445Do volumetrics.

>>98590452drybrush but only if you're good at it
My current mood as the edition has rolled over is I miss the era before points patches where the only FAQs were the ones to clear up ambiguous Codex wording. I just want to write a list with what I have, assemble and paint it in the free time when I have energy after work and not have to redo it because Gregory the Grognard took 20 Jumbofuck Squads With Melta Upgrades to some GT and we gotta tune the points. People are always going to play whatever’s the current broken bullshit, stop tinkering just release a damn book I can reference that stays valid for an edition.
>>98590430>left: regular speeder crew>right: phobos helmet and pilot sporting a big shoulder pad while wanting to stab a mofo with some xenos blade>middle: gravis gunner and a terminator turret gunner?

>>98590483But doing it the way they do it now means tourneyfags buy more boxes and that people in general are always talking about -BRAND-, which is free advertisement because it affects content algorithms which further affects others' content which means more eyes on the material which means more sales

Starting to think that 40k shouldn't have posterboys like, at all. I know haters will say glup shitto, but 40k is a /yourdudes/ franchise to the core and anybody crying glup shitto is a shitter. Ork stories and characters should go beyond the usual 6 klans, Space Marine stories should feature chapters from badab war-era foundings instead of more 1st founding shitt. AdMech is not just mars only, there's probably enough forgeworlds that compare to Mars (not in the amount of STC's in storage but moreso being a humongo planet that probably produces 10,000 Leman Russ tank chassis per day) and so on for all factions, even onedimensional stuff like Tyranids whose hivemind is supposed to be smart as fuck, yet it doesn't think of doing the art of looting (imagine a hormagaunt with a bolter instead of those bug guns)
>>98590510
>>98590506But think of his ad revenue and the amount of money GW makes from him because he creates free advertisement for themYou aren't thinking of the poor GW c-suite suits; they're a small company that's only 0.02% of the UK's annual GDP.I can't keep up the act anymore, holy shit that is fucking diabolical what I just wrote out. Can you believe some people actually think this is a good way to look at things?

>>98590551Lmao, kek even
>>98590544here's an artist's rendition of the culprit
Scouts can ride rhinos right? I know they squatted the land speeder storm
>>98590510>but 40k is a /yourdudes/ franchise to the coreYes and noYes because marines enable you to create a faction that can reasonably exist within the setting thanks to the chapter/warband systemsNo because anything that is not marines (or guard) doesn't leave a hell of a lot of room for custom factions without feeling OOC and/or a copy of an existing marine gimmickEldar, Nids, Crons, Sisters, AdMech, and several others don't leave a lot of room for expression because their culture is very narrow and specific. That being said, if you want to make /yourdudes/, you need to be willing to challenge the status quo of the setting. Doing so is brave in the face of 100,00 loretrannies that get all their info from youtube summaries and I personally encourage it. But if you actually care about the """lore""" as much as youtube secondaries, you're gonna have a bad time
>>98590212AoS is a terminal flop."Second biggest GW wargame" is regardless, still about 20% of GW's customer base, compared to 40k which is 70%.So GW takes off some of their usual 1000% markup per box in order to try and get people to buy Shitmar.I've never once seen someone buy anything Shitmar at my LGS, seen plenty of 40k models move, but Shitmar is just store shelf dust collectors.The setting really doesn't inspire anyone to blow hundreds of $$ on plastic.
>>98590279My nigger. Thanks for playan
>>98590544kek that's fucking basednow I kinda want to build a Raptors army but subtly mod and paint them so they look like IDF soldiers
>>98590559https://youtu.be/dkcdSj4qBWU
>>98590590>IDF soldierswe are the soldiers of the greater goodgalaxy's most moral armyand we have discovered a solution toa most perplexing quandary
>>98590562hey, I've been here longer than youthere are probably less than 20 mods and they all talk to eachother if you ever saw the IRCwhen they ban you permanently, all of them noticeit was not a fluke, everyone running this website agrees you broke the rules to such a degree that you deserve to be banned forever
>>98590363Tracked vehicles just fit the setting better. The Imperium has always been a mix of medieval and WW2 in Space, and tracked vehicles are great to show a seemingly advanced future civilization that is in a state of technological decline.The floating impulsors are just generic by comparison because they just do what every sci-fi does, floating vehicles.
Should be more smart and finish /mydudes/ but I'm kinda scratching to buy more...
>>98590630finish the models you own before buying new models
Hi that 3D printer anon that was having issues last night here. I tried one part at a time and it seems okay so far. Very slow but functional at least.Is this a good glue for PLA? I'm using loctite extreme glue right now because it's all I have and it just ain't cutting it.
Someone in the other thread was having a discussion about painting minis and how accurate or canon they paint them to be. I was just curious for the anons here, do you paint /yourdudes/ as close to the way they're shown in lore or in codex, or do you like to personalize them more and give big variations to their otherwise lore accurate scheme. Pic related as an example, with all the extra motifs, patterns, and different colour parts added, when compared with how termies are shown on box art as a standard.
>>98590638depends on the army. my ultras are mostly codex compliant aside from their red bolters, but my sautekh are basically an entirely different scheme, and my AL vary by model
>>98590638The codex astartes advises customers to change their markings up once in a while to throw off the enemy. With that in mind, go nuts. Particularly for obscure chapters or /yourdudes/ who you can headcanon any way you want.
>>98590378
>>98590635NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
awww janny got triggered too by the LGS story
>>98590638As with everything in 40k, it depends. Marines are obviously professional soldiers and have a uniform as much as say the Guard, but at the same time they're also warrior monks and knights, and some smaller companies of the chapter may adopt heraldry based on past campaigns, personal glories, camouflage for their situation, etc. Basically GW went out of their way to make sure that you can paint your plastic army men however you want and still have it be "canon" or "lore accurate", even in an established faction.
>>98590670try posting shit that actually happened instead, /pol/troon
Tourneyfags sucked all the flavor and depth out of the game. Choice of 4 enhancements? Preplanned terrain layouts. Wow thanks GW, very cool.
>>98590675They're re-creating the League of Legends balance cycle from first principlesNote: League of Legends is not balanced even after 15+ years

>>98590675I wrote up a CSM list recently for fun and felt really disappointed with just how anemic the option felt even compared to editions like 8th/9th. I miss when non Khorne Daemon Princes could be made psychic or when princes could be customized in general. Fuck man even Old world Princes mog 40k princes so hard it isn't even funny.Also it annoys the living fuck out of me that there aren't any small single digit upgrades that I can take to bring my list up to 2000 on the dot anymore.
>>98590701Shiina from the new Nanoha series. She's basically a Blood Angel trained by Salamanders.
>>98590648>>98590650>>98590671>>98590706It was just a curiosity because I know some people try to go as 1:1 with what the codex says and other people, like myself, take more inspiration with making everyone have some character to their appearance, oldhammer and older art was very fun about that aspect of adding little design details that I love so much.
>>98590720You can paint them whatever the fuck you want and make up your own headcanon about their backstory, that's part of the beauty of having a universe as vast and varied as 40k.
>>98590675It's so fucked up that they break into your house and stop you when you try make a custom terrain layout

>>98590579I'd say Crons do nowadays, they've introduced a ton of variation between different dynasties and their lords and you can basically pick whatever attitude and fundamental characteristics you want for your OC dynasty and it'll still be less out there than stuff that's canon.
>buy my FLGS' last predator>open it up>it's missing a sprue>FLGS says they're out of stock and I'll have to wait if they can get a replacement>GW customer service also says they don't do replacements anymore unless you bought direct from themAm I fucked? I've never had this happen before. I can probably scrounge the bits to fix it up but it's pissing me off that an entire sprue can be missing and GW customer service will do nothing.
>>98590836what sprue?Unless it's the actual Predator turret or sponsons sprue, you can just replace it with the same from another Rhino kit

>>98590914>anons who just want normal threads vs>reddit tourist who just spams the same few ancient model pics and normie tier gifs while pretending he belongs and ignoring over 200 bansWho is really the more unhinged?
>>98590939>over 200 bansI still find it funny when the mutant got permabanned the only thing for the mods wrote was "You've been banned 137 times" and left it at that.It was both blunt and hilarious.
>>98590840The hatch and marine bit. In the grand scheme of things it's not the end of the world, I can replace it with some spares, but it's still pissing me off, especially now I can't replace it, probably.
>>98590919It's insane that this bullshit has been going on for almost a year now.Even the archive doesn't show all the results.Every day, in every /40kg/ thread, hundreds of decalfag this or that bullshit. Since 2025.This cannot be organic. It's some kind of mentally ill freak samefagging and replying to himself, or a discord-coordinated campaign to sabotage this general.

>>98590972I don't collect Tau, but I love their Ochre era upstart alien modern military aesthetics. It really nailed their look as opposed to the anachronistic Imperium.Shame that it got replaced by anime robots and anime characters aesthetics, IMO
>>98590984can we see your finished hellblasters?
>>98590984sure >>98589878

Nothing pertinent to discuss it seems so I’m off to bed, good night fellow primaries and burn in hell off topic secondary trash.
>>98590986You have never been right about this claim
>>98590986og tautau are absolutely fucking ballin' outi'm feeling out a soft spot for the white and black and red sort of vior'la angle as it's pretty much my favorite combination of colors and suchand if i went for ochre my miniatures might well wind up effectively invisible against the basing stuff i have in mind, as appropriate as that would be
>>98590993Why do you psycho?
>>98590994You will be back and seething in under 20 minutes, like always
>>98590990Of course, anything orks is good, especially this new codex. Might as well get what's in the Armageddon box considering the value that the individual characters offer. Along with the unique sculpts.
>>98590997One of us has been perma'd and it ain't me.
>>98590990Yes, more boyz is always good for an ork player, and the new kits have lots of variants.Regarding Armaggedon, GW tends to sell later single sprues of their starter boxes by absurly expensive prices (see Necron Royal Court, Heroes of the Chapter), so getting the ork side is probably a wise financial decision no matter what.But it all depends on the price you pay
>>98590995>doesn't know how filenames workI agree with all those other anons. Alien military Tau > Anime Tau
>>98591011Nope! If they were false you wouldn't have had anything happen to you, they would've been timed out or banned for false reporting ;)
>>98591012Yea keep believing the lies brother, good luck with that.
>>98591011Isn't it your bedtime retard?
>>98590992My mistake it was 99https://desuarchive.org/tg/thread/98083416/#98084243Though that just makes it more hilarious considering that the mutant is now on his 200th ban.So since 21st of May 2026, he's gotten banned 101 times.What is even funnier is that 21st of May is 101 days ago, so this means this idiot has gotten banned at least 1 per day EVERY day.But remember this is also kind of wrong because decalfag disappeared for around a month or two and recently came back. Lets say he was away for 2 months, that's about 60 days he was gone at best.101-60=41, so he's been back for 41 days, roughly month and a half.So if we calculate this 101 bans in that new 41 day time frame it averages out to 2.46 bans PER DAY.Having seen this put into rough numbers, it's not at all surprising the mods just said "fuck it" and permabanned him.
>>98591011That's not how bans work, retard. A false report won't result in a ban as the mods assess the post and act accordingly, even the false reporters can cop bans. Permas are particularly not handed out lightly, the only thing above that is a range ban. You want to get your whole locale LIMITED?
Fuck it, I'll non-slop wolves to change subject.What are (You) working on anon? I'm slowly getting through the scouts for a killteam, my friend is new to the hobby and I said I'll paint some 40k so he has someone to hobby with.
>>98591011>false reportsgenuinely kill yourself

>>98591070That’s outside of your purview and should be irrelevant to any discussions had here
I think my favourite part about the decalfag is having a narcissistic personality disorder. But being in the bottom bracket of intelligence.
>>98591075You got banned for a reason, and we have 2 other wolf anons now. Theres no place for you here anymore. It's time to move on.
>>98591077You’re falling for bait dumbass, ignore the nomodels shit stirrers and deal in known facts.

>>98591043>same filenameI didn't you blind idiot. I downloaded one of these and resposted it because I agree> fake information about a faction's startWhat fake information?? Tau original aesthetics changed later into kid-friendly anime colors and characters, and that's a fact. Taros Campaign > Commander Farsight anime drama
>>98591082Can't stay here man, its time to fuck off for good now. Banned for a reason, go spam alts on reddit.

Their normie non-/40kg/ reaction images."Decafag" posts images, and then "anti-decalfag" replies to him instantly. No matter the time of the day.It's been going on for more than a year. That's no normal autistic sperging, it's a sustained attack.

>>98591023What's your secret to edge highlighting, I'm always afraid of fucking it up
>>98591094Who said anything about suits you retard?Farsight already being part of the faction from the start doesn't matter, idiot. I'm talking about turning military drama into anime drama.If you don't get the difference, go to deepstrike from a chair
>>98591117I posted my scout. Can I recommend cream tabbards? I did it for my fists and I think it looks good :)
>>98591119>>98591115That’s not me you detestable nigger
>>98591119Remember when you threw a fit and said you were going to bed and somebody said you'd be back in less than 20 minutes?lol
>>98591125Tons of practice. My first attempts were ass. Always will be, keep the paint thin and use the side of the brush where ever you can. When using the tip I brace the tip of my brush with my other hands thumb. Watch duncan rhodes.
>>98591126There is no difference, you don't know anything about the tau because you're the same fucking larper who's been throwing this fit for weeksKill yourself
STOP REPLYING YOU FUCKING MONGOS, IT'S CALLED REPORT AND IGNORE FOR A REASON.
>>98591129Nta but I am going to bed so you can stop the grade school antagonizing antics finally you twerp.

>>98591136>>Orcs
>>98591131>There is no differenceBullshit. There's a huge one between 3rd and pic related .It's well done, but it's still a departure from the original aesthetics
>>98591170You are genuinely too retarded to be alive
>>98591170Tau was always trying to pull the weeb audience with mechs. Now they are less subtle about it. Sorry Larper. It was always like that.
>>98591171>nuh nuh>no arguments
>>98591126>>98591170NTAWas always anime drama from day one. They're literally the anime mecha faction per the word of their creator
>>98591170why even post farsight when you already admitted he's an outlier since 3rd edition?
>>98591132Yeah, we report and the mods ignore it.
>>98591082>I don’t have anywhere else to goYou can blame your own shit behaviour for that. Those places banned you for a good reason too.
I like Orks! :D
>>98591082You're welcome to go to hell
>>98589859Is the anon who worked on Pepsihammer here? I wanna know if you continued working on that project or not.
>>98591000>>98591003Ok, but what about buying multiples?I've seen some anons saying most of the boyz/nobz/some characters are easily kitbashable once you cut off pegs
>>98591172>>98591180I didn't say anime or mechas weren't part of the Tau at the start, or that it was bad.But it was a part, and not the most dominant one. It was more balanced.The posterboy ochre/realistic paint schemes being replaced by anime red and white was going too far. I know why GW did it, but it's inferior, IMO
>>98591220>and not the most dominant one. It was more balanced.wrong and wronger
>>98591217I haven't actually put my boyz from the armageddon box together yet so I'm not too sure about kitbashing and how much work you'd need to put in to make them looks good. But what I can say is, for the multiples, they're always handy to have and the ones you don't want should be pretty easy to offload.
>>98591082This is true actuallyI dont own models and I know someone on the mod team personally and Ive been telling them to ban you every time I see you and I tried to steal your emailAlso I like orkz
>>98591220Kroot are and were a mistake. Auxilliary genocide can't happen soon enough
>>98591225NTA but Tau was combined arms. Tanks, infantry and elite suits with some auxiliary races all working together to use superior firepower and tactics against enemies who tended to not do that.
>>98590836>GW customer service also says they don't do replacements anymore unless you bought direct from themThere's no way that's true. I think you got some lazy jerk trying to screw with you. I'd push them harder about it.
Was about to start making my first Sagitaur, what size magnets should I get for the turret?
>>98591234From my own experiences, that is the new GW rule. People were buying third party and scamming GW for "missing parts", same as they took advantage of the GW missing items from stuff they sold rules.
>>98591251You're just mad I'm right. Aesthetic beauty and moral goodness are directly linked. Kroot and Vespids shouldn't exist.
>>98591251Go back tourist

i think vespids are kinda cool.......the movement envelope lends itself well to dancing with battlesuits
>>98591264How are her nipples not popping out of the kimono? 1/10 unrealistic. Good breasts size though.
>>98591242I still doubt that's true. It's extremely easy to provide receipts for legit purchases and abuse would be easy to track.
>>98591283>hates loli hagsOh, you're a tranny or a pedophile. How unfortunate. Please leave.
>>98590279This was nice, I hope more people post games like this. this place can be a bit samey
>>98591283You do not belong and never will
>>98591283Loli website, find another place.
>>98591283>he can't tell hags from kids
>>98591230auxiliaries are awesome, it's their obligated presence alongside the tau that's a turnoff
>>98591344Whatever you say Inquisitor Epstein. I'm glad you've never recoiled from such accusations. So anyway, how many of these young, nubile pleasure planet aspirants did you need to take for putting geneseed into at your new chapter founding?
>>98591354They really should bring back allies and then make codex: minor xenos/mercenaries
>>98591354While aesthetically cool, Kroot don't really have any lore justification for being fielded as an army outside of their involvement with the imperialist Tau Empire. Technically they show up as mercenaries, but they would never be the sole fighting force without being tied to another faction.
>>98591363All the reasons they have to be mercenaries are also reasons to fight on their own when they can.If your problem is the difficulty in imagining them fighting in conflicts at the same scale as other factions, then we would have to level our respective ideas of what a 2K points game is actually representing, or just give them more stuff in the background that would support larger engagements, it's not like they don't already have fuckhueg spaceships anyway.

any feedback for this imperial fist boy?
>>98591396here's his sergeant

>>98591396Looks great. Juust need to add the chapter symbol and squad symbol but I don't see any actual bad parts.
>>98589877Wouldn't that be an increase if it goes from 0 to 1?
>>98591399He should be more careful to not lose his head.
>>98590314No shit? Get rid of the memes and they are a horrific pest on the galaxy. God help you if you become their prisoner
>>98591170>They hated him because he told the truthThey angry cuz you're right
>>98591396>>98591399These are well done, I think they'd look even better if you put some grey/silver on gribbles around the yellow, like the ports, rivets, etc. to break the monotony of the yellow.
>>98591003We know the prices, the Armageddon box is legit like a 80% discount in comparison and they already stopped selling it, GW is fucking insane.
>>98590347Thiswe had rumors about getting treaded vehicles refresh and Predator in 11th already
>>98591396>>98591399I don't know if Fists have red lenses, but I think a different colour might pop a bit more.
>>98589883cadians
>>98590358I don't mind the grav tanks for primaris but it'd been cool if GW added an option for you to build either an anti-grav or tracked variant in the kit.Fuck it, give them different rules too as an incentive to do different things.Anti-grav tanks would have more movement but can't move and shoot on the same turn.Tracked tanks instead can move and fire on the the same turn.
>>98590687I've got a couple of the first print manga volumes from when it was an online manga.
>>98590378I still stand by the idea that the primaris ATV instead should've been a Halo Warthog rip off with a accompaning chapter serf helping the marines in the truck.
>>98591463>can't move and shoot on the same turnnobody would ever run this come on man at least pretend to know the rules
>>98591428it's an 80% discount but who the fuck is buying more intercessors

>>98589963>spoiler
>>98591544Don't forger Bikers and Centurions as Obliterators/MutilatorsIt's not a perfect 1:1, but I think it should be doable and stronger than just using loyalist Legends. Go for it!

>>98591573I don't want to put literally everything in the list, just a fun DoW themed one>>98591580I could put some vets, true. I wonder if attaching a lord to some chosen could be a better cmd squad proxy, would have to see the chosen wargear

Why are these guys costed differently on the 4th+ unit? They're NOT battleline. You can ever only have three. Who writes these dataslates?
>>98591635>Who writes these dataslates?Pic related
Yo anybody keep up with leakers (be it Valrak or others) that can post what do they say is coming in the near/far future in terms of new releases?
>>98591649I heard that GW is going to release more marines
>>98591649
>>98591649Marines and then Custodes for sure (we've already seen leaked models). After that it's vague and nebulous.We also have a leaked knight sprue dated 2028
>>98591664damn, those leaks were spot on
Hey guys, been wanting to put together a Blood Angels Army which is just Death Company, is it better to have Death Company Captains or get Chaplains?
>>98591676Literally everything but the CSM bikers happened
>>98590363>Grav Tanks are sick too,Yeah they make me sick
>>98591234>>98591242That rule was in effect like two decades ago when I bought a DA battleforce box from a store on my travels. When I opened it up, it was missing the command sprue. GW was like "go back to the store you bought it from and let them sort it out".
>>98590363I have to agree that I do like the Gravtanks myself, I think my only issue with them is the sheer amount of guns they have, it is my current issue with a lot of primaris sets, the Redemptors also look excellent in my opinion, but they have those shitty nipple guns, it makes them look silly.
Tigershark Heavy Transport.
>>98591503>>98591510Once it's fully gone, you think people will make a conversion kit for the Deimos one to turn it into a Mars pattern? Replace the glacis, exhausts and side panels? Shouldn't be too hard. Like 3 pieces (glacis, 1 side panel that can be reversed and 4 identical exhausts)
>>98591664>new kasrkin and a new vehicle in between leman russ and banebladeWell shit, this thing leaked the Rogal Dorn tank before it even released.What's funnier to me is how that image leaked and confirmed that Squats were coming back. Literally nobody believed it but then GW just dropped the Squats on the WarCom during April Fools without any proper announcements.
>>98591706That's not a fish.
>>98591717of course it isn't a fish It is a heavy lift transport aircraft.
>>98591706>>98591719awesome concept anon can't wait to see it painted

at an event and Dan Abnett is herewhat should I ask him?does anyone have a question they want answered? I can ask on your behalf
>>98591719That fact it has railgun parts on the sides makes me think of the scene from Revengeance where Raiden is fired out of his transport drone forwards like a bullet.
>>98591664>Leak was right about everything>Still no CSM bikerswhat are they doing with them
>>98591491My weeb as read this in the wrong direction

>>98591742ah but what if its a shit opinion so you can go "lol I have better opinions than the retard who black library fans worship"
I have now finished my SoB backlog and I feel free.I'm going to pick something at random from my box of metal minis
>>98591748ian watson is the imperial fists shit eating, sentient emperors children penises guy right?
>>98591759Yeah that's himHis shit isn't canon anymore though
>>98591760>implying black library slop is more canin than it
>>98591736About The End and the Death and retconning decades of marine lore:>Why he made Sanguinius to be calm and even willing to spare Horus? The Black Rage lore from 40k says the BA are overwhelmed by memories of Sanguinius rage at Horus and the traitors until he died. That didn't happen in TEATD>Why he made Horus crufify Sanguinius?In all previous versions of the story and ilustrations, Sangy was in the ground when the Emperor arrived>Why he killed all the Imperial Firsts off camera during their teleport attack?Originally at least a IF Terminator survived to intervene against Horus. And that's the source of the commemorative stone Crux Terminatus that ALL 40k termies have (even the SW!)>Why he decided to make Malcador repeat again and again that Horus was the "First Found"? we know that's not true (see Alpharius novel)>Why he decided to make so many character to repeat the "Astartesian" adjective>And btw, what was the deal with "Wet Leopard Growls" in Prospero BurnsWas the above some kind of injoke or trying to see if BL editors do their job?The above should make him look bad no matter what he says in front of a live audience
>>98591764I still don't know where this meme of BL not being canon came from or why so many people fell for it
>>98591775I wouldnt say its a meme but more what naturally happens with IPs and tie-in novelseventually a novel will introduce a retarded piece of lore that people don't like, and generally the "main IP" doesn't really reference those novelsI don't need to read the books to enjoy star warsI don't need to read the books to enjoy haloand I don't need to read the books to enjoy 40kstar wars and halo fans will say "the books aren't canon" and people will be fine with that, but say the books aren't canon to a 40k fan and they'll throw a tantrum
>real marines are goneHow will they explain it in the fluff?
>>98591791the rubicon primaris was perfected and practically all marines have now crossed it or have died and been replaced by marines who have been made as primaris
>>98591775yeah the Game designers control their lore so tightly. nothing is getting published through BL without the editors checking off anything that changes or builds on the lore at all.There is a decay to black library canon though, some of the old stuff is basically decanonized now.
>>98591759>Imperial Fists shit eatingI’ve seen this so much, but why are those things that are depicted as being bad and should be non-canon? they’re weird superstitious space knights, why shouldn’t they have weird superstitions and rituals that seem bizarre to us? you can go through history and find a list of christian, pagan, buddhist, and african religious practices that are equally, if not more weird than that. same goes for the emperor’s children, they are hypersexual freaks corrupted by supersexual daemons.
>>98591801>you can go through history and find a list of christian, pagan, buddhist, and african religious practices that are equally, if not more weird than that.or you could just go to india where they have a shit throwing festival
>>98591775It comes from several sources:>seething gamergate/election tourists in the mid 2010s.They hated that some BL authors were vocal idiot lefttoids in social media, so they brought their retarded culture war here.>Trannies and danger hairdos that hate that canonically female space marines cannot happen>Midhammer guys that made the few codexes they read their whole fake grog persona, so they can't stand that they actually are very ignorant about the lore>contrarian edgelords against anything popular>traumatized eldarfags thanks to Gav Thorpe shitty novels>>98591789>IPs and tie-in novelsThese aren't totally external books to the main studio. Many key writers began as GW 40k codex writers.>eventually a novel will introduce a retarded piece of lore that people don't like, and generally the "main IP" doesn't really reference those novelsThe same happens in reverse too with shit never mentioned again from Campaings and rules.Or different GW games like Necromunda becoming their own universe.GW teams have very little coordination.
>>98591791It is GWs fault by creating "Primaris" and "not primaris" as marine classifications. At this point in the lore all your space marines will have underwent the surgery or died on the battlefield and have been replaced.
>>98591789Saying you don't need to read the novels to enjoy 40k does not make them non-canon and I don't think that's a good argument to make.The star wars books were considered canon for decades, it's only recently that they were made non-canon/canon to a different timeline. I'm not touching halo because I don't know enough about it.Why would BL need to make the Heretic Tomes label for non-canon books if all the books were not canon?You can dislike BL books without having to claim them as non-canon, it's the fairly recent push from people to claim they are not and have never been canon that is odd.
>>98591753Pulled out Straken
>>98591829>You can dislike BL books without having to claim them as non-canonExaclty. As a lorefag there's lots of books I don't like and I ignore for my headcanon, but I also do the same about campaigns and codexes.My favourite example is the Death Guard: compare their codex poo/toilet humor and retarded names with the awesome Lords of Silence novel.
>>98591759>>98591748People always bring up the Slaanesh penis stuff in that book but the female assassin getting brain fucked by tentacles so hard that she's paralyzed from the constant orgasms was far lewder.
>>98591706>>98591719This is the kind of anime shit Tau should have, fucking sick
>>98591759I don't know why people hate on the sentient penises, God forbid that Chaos is strange and perverted!
>>98591857>I don't know why people hate on the sentient penises
>>98591286it's funny how the people who are so vehemently opposed to loli always get caught trying to message minros
>>98591893that’s the case everywhere, if you care enough to bring it up (this includes being into loli btw) then you’re more likely to be attracted to minors.
>>98591893>>98591909Yeah but don't you anons worry that assuming this phenomena always applies is going to lead to a boy who cried wolf situation?Can't help but worry sometimes when I see this kind of discourse as a bystander.
>>98591775BL mostly contradict with codexes and each other. Also, its mostly garbage writing for nomodel teen and kidult
>>98591938As someone who has read a LOT of trash sci-fi and fantasy genre slop, most BL books are totally fine if a bit mid. They're not high literature but they're not really trying to be
>>98591930>that assuming this phenomena always applies is going to lead to a boy who cried wolf situation?I do not give a shit dudeIt's words on the internet
>>98591938>mostly garbage writing for nomodel teen and kidultSo they're exaclty the same?
Which flyers do you think are safe this edition? I assume all but a few are getting the axe like the Space Marines ones did.Is my Heldrake staying on the shelf permanently?
Did anyone ever make a color scheme for these guys. https://1d6chan.miraheze.org/wiki/Na%27jing_CadrePic vaguely related...
>>98591773so generally for most of these is "its all legends", there was no rigid way GW wanted those things interpreted so dan was just able to do what he wantsthe wet leapoard growld are just a motif for how he described the sound
>>98591957>army named after the rape of nanjinghmmmm, I wonder where you’d find inspiration for a color scheme… my suggestion would be green and purple.
>GW: we have accidentally made some cool shit like proper orks and exodites>GW: we must compensate by shitcanning beloved models
>>98591984Thanks, doc.
>>98591959he's so full of shit, lmao>the wet leapoard growld are just a motif for how he described the soundsure Dan, sure
>>98592008the joke is... homo sex?
Counts-as: exodite dragon master.
>>98592013The joke is a quiproquo
Why do some people fight so much against Primaris?These models are such a fucking upgrade over the old kits.Is the Primaris hate just a meme?
>>98591791The setting will just shrink visibly, that's all.
I know fantasy orks are not the same as 40k orks, but one thing still haunts me as something that would be half coolest shit ever, half waste of time and that's Blood Bowl but in 40k. Would Orks from 40k really compromise their krumping mentality the same way orks in fantasy did just to play some football?
>>98592027you just know
>>98591791After 500 years of attrition the number of Marines who have survived since the introduction of Primaris and also refused the Rubricon are basically zero
>>98592033yes
>>98592041>After 500 years of attritiononly like 12 or 120 years at the very most passed since the fall of cadia
>>98592031Picture unrelated?
>>98592031Not really a meme.The primaris were an asspull because gw was desperate for money instead of the firstborn getting an upgrade. It hurt the mythology of the space marine a bit when a shoe horned in tech priest can just upgrade them all. Think of it like the Star Wars prequels being a bad asspull but the big company is now stuck with them and has to lore bandaid the thing to make them cool but the stain of what it originally started as won’t ever go away.
>>98592070>upgradeI meant update.
>>98592031answer for shtiposters is identity "politics": as the shitposters who whine about primaris do so in order to validate their own identity as the conservative critical hobbyist as opposed to the progressive mindless consumersthe answer for non-shitposters is because they're not an upgrade: ideally an upgrade would be exactly like the previous thing, but improved, meanwhile the new kits change some things that didn't need to be changed, such as armor pattern, army composition, and option availability, for most these are lesser gripes that do not significantly offset the improved size and proportions, for some those minor gripes are worth lamenting about in a vacuum
>>98589872Now they're turbo gay
>>98591740Preparing the DOOOOOMrider model
>>98592031I'll use your shitty niggerbait to remind people that the middlehammer marine kits had the best customization ever. And primaris still haven't gotten that level of interchangeability, despite how feasible it would be.Primaris could have absolutely be an upgrade, by making the chests and front greeves separate (and consistent) pieces, but they haven't.We have kits where you can choose different faces for the same head, but for space marine they chose to keep it boring and basic since normies don't have armor autism.
>>98592094You joke, but the last Trazyn x Orikan novel reveals that Doomrider was among the collection in Serenade, and now he's free.He's an obvious release for EC
>>98592094Would he be a csm model or an emperor's children model?fabius not being in the ec codex always confused me
>>98592099>despite how feasible it would be.that level of customisation breaks the type of poses and details gw wants the new miniatures to have not even hh marines do models like that anymore
>>98592104>fabius not in the ec codexI mean fabius was kicked from the EC. That's how much of a mad scientist he is that even the EC thought he was too much.
>>98592031Its mostly cause the excuse feels pretty shitty and could have been solved in a much easier manner by just saying that Space Marines got a new armor upgrade.
>>98592111didn't he get back in? wouldn't he still lead a subfaction of slaaneshi-like troops even if they weren't THE emperor children themselves?
>>98592099Primaris and modular legs/torsos are different issues.GW was already leaving behind that style of kits with their late 6-7h releases.It was going to happen anyway. Why?Because for collectors and paintfags it makes models look bad. The torsos are not dynamic and almost never are naturally aligned with the legs. Not that i like it, but that's the logic behind it.
>>98592108>they had to cut customization for the posesThat's bullshit and always has been. Especially with primaris.It's just GW who doesn't want to design with that level of customization in mind.I'm so tired of this lie being repeated for a decade now. I'd call it a leap of logic but there is no logic to be leaping to or from in the first place.
>>98592031>PositivesShields, gorgets, good amount of tat (now)>NeutralExtra bit of plate on the thigh to bulk them up>NegativesSegmented foot armor, ankle spheres, child bearing hip plates, segmented belly armor (especially gravid armor), bulbous jump packs, jump pack flaps especially those not attached to the jump pack, terminal lack of tat (originally), overall rounder design with smooth curves and spherical shapes everywhere. Treads are a million times more metal than fucking hoverboxes.
>>98592122That makes no sense, and your pic show it. There is no reason for that leg and front torso to be in one piece. There is no reason for one shoulder pad to be separate and not the other. If your concern is detail, you make more pieces, not cut shit weirdly.It was always a question of sprue conservation and fucking over 3rd party. It was never about detail.
>>98592099>>98592123I think the sprue organization was gw trying to “fight” against aftermarket third party bits.
>>98592123It's not a lie, it's just more convenient for sprue design and dymanic posesI prefer customization given the scale, but it is what it is and the GW designers prefer it that way. Just look at what they did with nuOrk Boyz
>>98592103>the last Trazyn x Orikan novel reveals that Doomrider was among the collection in Serenade, and now he's free.Interesting. I guess that means they stole him from the White Scars as they had his head on display on the road to their chapter fortress.
>>98592031My main issue with primaris was the lack of variety, however GW has started to move back into it and add it back to the models.Also big issue for many middle hammer models is they genuinely were too detailed, it's the reason why the term "christmas tree" gets thrown around as a deragatory term.
why is spure so poorly organized numericallylike why isn't it just part 1 is next to part 2 is next to part 3 etc.why I gotta go searching for shit
>>98592131>sprue conservationAnd you think that's not a concern for GW? You're also forgetting about undercuts in plastic injection.Just look at how packed are CSM sprues. Again, it's not a primaris thing, but a wide change of philosopy in kit design
>>98592123>That's bullshitNo, it isn't, making the minis larger and more detailed means that the midsection and hips show the misalignment too much compared to the previous compromise.It means you can't have miniatures with tabards and robes that go from torso to legs.You CAN cut the midsection from the legs yourself if you want to rotate the chest, but it will look like shit and not because the man-made cut will be visible, but because the pose will be unnatural.
so heres a funny thing, dan abnett said thay he created a term for something in his next novel, but was asked to remove it by GW, he suspects the reason why is because GW didn't come up with it themselves
>>98592108>not even hh marines do models like that anymoreHate this. I have 3 squads worth of those old FW khorne berzerkers kits I was going to use with HH bits but the new ones don't work with the old torso system.
>>98592142They're organized by space availability and how close certain features need to be to the injection point to get sufficient pressure to fill the mold recesses. Numbers are for assembly order which is entirely unrelated.
>>98592031The armor is whatever, space marines always looked like angry Buzz Lightyear to me and while ditching the VERY ICONIC angry face helmet is lame, the lamer part of primaris is the contradicting lore behind it.I still don't get why GW tried to sell the primaris as this very important and deadly risky proceedure for firstborn marines, only to then have someone like Titus whose body was more suited for a dreadnought be easily recovered just by crossing the rubicon primaris, on top of doing that shit where geneseed flaws are supposed to be fixed, but primaris BA's still fall for the black rage (or as the kids would call it, a crashout because blood angels got niggas in them), and also there's primrais marines with traitor geneseed, but they just chalk them up to successors of other chapters when i'm pretty sure that in 40k, only the Custodes would remember the names from traitor legions before their primarch was found (i.e. Luna Wolves are the ones who became the Sons of Horus, AKA the Black Legion in current 40k) so it's not like narratively, people would raise an eyebrow over a chapter named the War Hounds.But alas, Primaris lore will remain stupid to think about.
>>98592142because they're optimising cramming as many shit onto the sprue so they need to make as few sprues as possibleas well as making the bits themselves uncomfortable for third parties to produce optional parts
>>98592138Chogoris was invaded at some point after the Great Rift opened and Doomrider is technically a DP that cannot die He probalby escaped only to be captured by Trazyn.
would you say the primer is messed up/grainy on this guy in a way that'd show up bad when painting? idk if it's worth stripping him and trying again or if I'm going crazy
>>98592150>dan abnett says he's a genius why should you trust him again?
>>98592150its like when WWE signs on a famous athlete or indie wrestler but then change their name to erikk shazzbottom I wonder if they have to pay Abnett when his words get famous and widely used in 40k (like vox)
>>98592150why are they such cunts
>>98592136>it's not a lieThen you are genuinely retarded for thinking it.This has nothing to do with details or poses. Why you fucks parrot that shit is beyond me. It's the same level as "the rock was a gay bar", shit that sounds smart but is just word to mouth that doesn't go challenged by midwits.As I said in my first post: the logic cannot be that customization went away for poses, because you can still have customization as is, especially with primaris marines. Terminators are another example: the kit is prime material for customization, but instead GW copy pasted storm bolters, chest plates, etc. They could absolutely have made a kit with as much different bling as the previous kit, they just didn't care to.I'm so fucking done with you faggots trying to justify that the status quo is about quality, when it's 100% about GW being lazy/retarded and doing what's easiest for them. Same reason the old interessors were 2x identical sprues, same reason the HH marines are all the same 5 poses and 4x the same sprue in the same box.It hasNOTHINGto do with constraint or quality.It hasEVERYTHINGto do with laziness/lack of interest.TL;DR: Shut. The fuck. Up.
>>98592160same shit happened to me with black primer, I put too much on and it got all spongey and porous. made it really hard to paint and I lost a lot of detail.
>>98592160strip it and don't be so far away when you spray it next time
>>98592148Nigger then you make the chest a separate piece, not the whole upper body. Did you ever stop to figure out what can be done? No, of course not, you're a fucking retard.
>>98592165>This has nothing to do with details or poses.Yes, it does, you're just in denial about it like you're in denial about primaris terminators.
>>98592161>for me, it's trusting the big corpo who lied about 50 dozen different things, under pay workers, drive out employees who get to popular with the fanbase, who created shitcast eternals, etc etc etcGet fucking real
>>98592172Trolling is not allowed outside /b/
>>98592150Old Dan full of shit again. He comes up with new names and terminology in most of his books. In fact, it was a reason why he was well liked at the start. He genuinelly contributed a lot of good and fluffy vocabulary to 40k.But he also makes up cringe words and expressions that he tries to push even when nobody else has adopted them, or clearly contradict past use among other authors.If GW for once ask him to have restraint, it must have been really bad
>>98592171>then you make the chest a separate piecethe same identical problem arises wherever you decide to make the cut, you haven't fixed shit that way, retard.Jesus Christ it's like I'm talking to someone who can't visualise shit.
>>98592177*wet leopard growl* is Absolutely Based and I won't hear otherwise.
>>98592171>>98592099I want GW to rip off this design of bitsThat way you can make them have dynamic body natrually twisting, while still providing variety in chest pieces and greaves
>>98592174>it's trusting the big corpothe big corpo isn't making any claim here, anon, the only version of whatever happened is dan's, so why are you taking it for 100% genuine?
>>98592181to be fair he said that was just how he was describing the sound and it became a motif
>>98592179>but muh abdomen>then leave the abdomen with the leg, and focus on the torso>urr durr same problemGenuinely retarded, last (you)
>>98592165>Why you fucks parrot that shit is beyond me. It's the same level as "the rock was a gay bar", shit that sounds smart but is just word to mouth that doesn't go challenged by midwits.Goebels said something about repeating a lie enough and people will believe it to be true.The dark angels space marine monostary rock being named after a gay bar is one such example. I think why nobody challenged it is also out of fear of being accused as a homophobe just for having a more investigative mindset.Still waiting on proofs of that. Would be funny if gw debunked it.Another example of the repeated lie has been the little sisters of purification still believed by some to be official gw. When proven to be a fan chapter of one of the earliest female marines people cope by saying there must have been gw approval of some sort. I don’t think they were as fanzines have been a thing for a long time.
>>98592165>doing what's easiest for themOh no, a company doing that? Doing something to earn more profits? You must not have owned anything but SM, because for other factions like CSM the change has been night and day, a very big jump in quality across their range.You think you're smart, but you're a dumb moron that doesn't get it.
New battlesuits when?
>>98592177>But he also makes up cringe words and expressions Examples please?I think vox cast works because it is pseudo Latin primarily. What has made his newer stuff fail?
>>98592185the claim is in opposition to the big corpo. your response was partly to defend them. if Abnett said there was a dungeon under Warhammer HQ where they kept employees who tried giving away models to sick little kids dying of cancer I would absolutely believe him, because it sounds exactly the way a company like GW would behave.
>>98592182>That way you can make them have dynamic body natrually twistingIt doesn't look like you can, all the tabards are dangling straight off the chestplate, they aren't turning with the chestplate as they naturally should.It would look even worse if they had ab plates or cables instead of a tabard on their stomachs.
>>98592182Exactly, if you keep the torso with the legs, you avoid any posing problems, since marine armor is made of solid pieces.But somehow retards can't fathom this, they think if GW can't do it, then it cannot be done.I never understood why people favor trusting the company milking them rather than logic. Probably because they like the ability for the latter desu.
>>98592199i'd rather get tanks, the tau mechs are cool but the tau tanks were the true meat and potatoes.
>>98592189he's full of shit. Nobody else before or after used that expression in a SW story.And he repeats it a lot of times in the book. Just once would have been typical pulp prose. But it's more like a private joke forced on the reader. It's not organic at all.
>>98592204Nta but it doesn't change anything, the chest piece is a solid piece, it doesn't twist. Genuinely stupid?
>>98592194It is literally the same problem, the problem is the misalignment between turning parts, just because you avoided a misalignment between abdomen and hips it doesn't mean you aren't creating another, because you objectively are going to create one, if not there then at the chest-abs section.Do you really need a visual aid or are you just crying because it turns out you can't cry about marines here?
>>98592204chest piece is solid, you only need to model twisting abdomen and then you can put chestplate on top of it. Would make it possible to easily switch them around. You could make body twist left or run alongside legs and still put mkvi or mkvii chest on top of it
>>98592199the trueface of the tau fag>where are muh suits?>I need more suits to shoot you across the board >I don't have enough gundams that shoot plasma and then can move after firing and then their guns also shoot in close combat! argh!
>>98592182>I want GW to rip off this design of bitsit can't be done because plastic mold injection doesn't work like printing resin>>98592218See above. You can't do that with plastic unless you split it in even more parts, which means more sprue space
>>98592203>if someone makes a claim against something I don't like then it's automatically more likely to be true!that's now how things work, and the alleged reason is dumb, gw would own whatever term anyone working for them would produce or change it at any moment for whatever else they might want instead.if the term got denied then it's more likely because it was dumb, not because it was too clever for its own good
>>98592219Cute tomato
>>98592218To play devil’s advocate I think the gundam assemble miniature sprues are cut up that way too. They’re in dynamic poses too. But oddly enough avoid tactical rocks somehow.The tech may not be there if gunpla can’t do it. Or worse it was lost.
>>98592228>that's now how things workIndeed!
>>98592230I meant cut up in the annoying way gw does it.
>>98592199You don't want redemptor battlesuits.
New thread fucking when
>>98592199XV8 should've stayed the size limit.
>>98592099Every time I see GW paying lip service to kitbashing I want to fucking strangle an Englishman because the primaris sprues were intentionally designed to be as kitbash-unfriendly as possible because they HATE the idea of third party bitz dealers making money off of the game. Even though they would never in a billion years offer the same level of service because their factories aren't very scalable.
>>98592244when you have sex
>>98592244I’m stuck on mobile because pc ip is “temporarily blocked due to abuse” and for some reason after correctly doing the email verification it always says expired or invalid.I don’t want to clean up the excess links Erebus op put in to mess with an anon who complained about too many links.
>>98592213>>98592218Please, for the love of god, THINK, if you turn the chest then the midsection should also turn with ithttps://files.catbox.moe/0j1lcj.jpg
>>98592271We don't understand each other. You can explicitly design midsection and legs together so they look like turning naturallybut by keeping chests separate you can easily let people switch chests around. That way this same legs+midsection bit turning left could have different chest pieces
>>98592271But that's why the midsection stays with the legs and the chestpiece is separate. How do you not understand that?>>98592255Real.>look! our product(tm) can do feature (bare functionality, a shadow of what it was not a decade prior)It's just insulting
>>98592255>the primaris sprues were intentionally designed to be as kitbash-unfriendly as possibleObjectively bullshit. Kitbashing primaris kits is as simple as ever. Have you only ever seen the original pushfit stuff and based your entire thesis on those?
>>98592319>objectively bullshit>look inside>not objective>not bullshit eitherntab wtf are you on about?>as simple as ever>legs & torso as one>all 10 (2x5) bodies have the same bling, so no point in even swapping them around
>>98592329nta, but you're a hobbylet. There's tons of examples of primaris kitbashing out there.It just requires a bit of more work than blind lego-like building blocks
>>98592335Show me three good examples, fren.
Isn't Runtherd becoming a character a huge nerf? Not because he's bought seperately, but because he is an easy assassination target
>>98592306>But that's why the midsection stays with the legs and the chestpiece is separate. How do you not understand that?how do you not understand what I'm showing you? it doesn't matter how the midsection is segmented, if the turning of the chest doesn't match the turning of the midsection then the end pose will be fucked up, that's why it's not worth it to make the chest a separate piece because there will only be basically one pose that's natural with the turn of the midsection>>98592286then why the fuck are you sliding into a discussion about splitting the pieces for posing purposes?btw, in an ideal world you would be right, but do you genuinely believe that increasing the number of separate pieces doesn't increase the amount of sprues and thus its price?gw is fucking retarded with sprue optimisation and on that we can agree without the need of any other post, but I just don't see a scenario where making the piece separate doesn't end up cutting into something else
New because image limit>>98592350>>98592350>>98592350
>>98592335>same as ever>just a bit more workUh oh, the backtracking beginsI have some primaris kitbashes, which is exactly why I know it's not as simple as the previous generation of kit. One of them is a inner circle companion body, sternguard combi plasma arms, DA upgrade unhooded head, with a bloodclaw powerpack. I had to plan it out rather than easily throw shit together. On the other hand I got some Ravenwing black knights and they were so easy to swap around with tactical squad and sternguard bits, even put some leftover devastator heavy weapons. Easy peasy, no problems and great results.Now shut the fuck up.
>>98592352YOU DO NOT SEGMENT THE MIDSECTION. IF I FLEX A WATER BOTTLE, IT DOESN'T MATTER AS LONG AS THE MOUTH OF THE BOTTLE STAYS THE SAME, BECAUSE THE BOTTLECAP DOES NOT FLEX.
>>98592340Do your own homework, IG is full of those>>98592363Besides the torsos/legs being one piece, everything else is swappable out of the box. Tons of people did Tacticals, Devastators or Deathwatch with primaris.For the rest, stuff like Sanguirary Guard and GK was (and is) common with the use of a hobby saw.Also, lots of 3rd party part makers sell primaris bits now. You guys are living in 2017
>>98592398>>everything else is swappableBut there is way less variety in the bits>tacs, devs or deathwatchUntil we had the DW kill team, what did people use for these? Old bits from the old era, you fucking dumbass.>just use a sawAnd now you're not even arguing the kit anymore. Those same tools were already used with the old kits, but now they're mandatory for torso swaps.You are a humongus fucking faggot and I'm glad you're an unlikeable lonely twat who wastes his time being retarded on the internet, but you deserve so much fucking worse.
>>98592371the midsection does flex with the body, retard, marines aren't robots
>>98592434>don't touch the midsection>but what about the midsection>just don't touch it, keep it separate>but it flexes>I know, that's why you don't touch it>But it flexes thoGoogoo gaga *jingle keyes*
