Wolfhole!!!! UwU
I like orks :D
>TQI want to turn an entire shelf on my bookcase into a battle diorama. But I just don't got the time for such a project.
Newfag here, with these retarded Ork trukk prices would it make sense to grab a couple of the old ones if I can get them both for 60 bucks?Can I use them just fine?
>>98600711>tqsculpting my own updated versions of a few classic minisI'm not good enough to do it yet though
>>98600736>Can you guess what the Lion said when Russ took him to the Ball?>made with mematicWhat did he mean by this?
>>98600744Yes, even GW explicitly said you can mix the old and new ones
>>98600749You have 3 weeks to finish your Hellblasters before it becomes a whole year since you started on them.
>>98600711>Tqup until last week it would've been this, I've been sitting on this project for 5 years, but suddenly decided to just fucking do it.
This is my Land Raider's Machine Spirit, so something nice about it
>>98600754AND a bunch of anons make their own hellblasters to make fun of you.
James! There's only one way to save 40k! Release the Hrud!
>>98600762She's very cute and funny
>>98600771>him
>>98600771Yeah, it says they are motivated and can get things done
>>98600737Yeah, I've had very similar thoughts over the last few weeks mulling on this stuff. My plan already is that any dudes made with more Cadian gear (odd cap/helmet/las carbine) would be Vervunhivers, and I had a thought at one stage that I could do predominately Tanith First for the recon squad and predominately Vervunhivers unit for cadian infantry... My fear though is making that one KT box stretch over 4-5 squads whilst trying to avoid duplicate posing and shit. In any case no the scions will be scions, I have the elysian buggies to kitbash with taurox bitz to make some cool "armoured tauroses" they can race around in, and if they have to park their asses on objectives so be it. Thanks for all your chatter anyway, gave me a bunch to think about. I'll keep working away on minis and bet the Guard codex will fuck everything up anyhow when it's released
>>98600770GW should be cool and release more kill teams and models that don't fit in any army, like how arbites and rogue traders and inquisitorial retinue were just random dudes hanging out.And bring back the fucking urghul, he was in blackstone the same as the zoat and the navigator and DE need datasheets.
I really REALLY like this model.
>>98600749>not even the version of this image edited to be more ontopic
>mentioned as being nearly as numerous as orks, humans and tyranids>hide in the shadows and sewers of the underhives>migrations are devastating events that require several chapters to be marshaled>alive both in 30k and 40k>totally and completely irrelevant to the setting
>>98600750Thanks
>>98600802Why?
>>98600771how so? it shows far more that they actually like to hobby than he does for sure, but the fact he’s so annoying a bunch of anons choose to spite him is pretty telling, and then add on he is so lazy anons know that they’ll paint their hellblasters before he does is utterly humiliating on his part.if anons actually follow through, I’d say this is worse for him than the space wolf collage. at least it was just his general army getting BTFO that time, but this is purely about HIM being a daydreaming failure who might have (100%) commissioned his models.
My space marine chapter are like salamanders, but white, they live underground with their families, they do everything they can to make sure the organ transplants are as safe as possible. They hate extermantus, and will do whatever it takes to save everyone on a worls. Their chapter master Kleptic Yawning, has defeat Helbrecht, Tyberos, and Moloc in duels. They ensure that all the planets in their domain are healthy, happy, and governed fairly, and aren't afraid to stand up to imperium bully boys. I call them the Moon Sons.
>>98600802I hated this model for the longest time until I discovered it had an alternate head. I now hate it a lot less, but am still unsure how to fit it into my force. I'm pretty sure he's supposed to be attached to a unit of Thunderkyn, but I feel his profiles don't mesh well with either of their guns
>>98600804>>totally and completely irrelevant to the settingSimply because they don't have models yet
>>98600804When was the last time they were mentioned again? It's time to let go anon...>>98600823>yet
>>98600804You are easily the worst ritualfag we have already
>>98600832>When was the last time they were mentioned again? It's time to let go anon...infinite and the divine
>>98600845>Reddit and the divine Post proof
Does Jack hate Chaos enough to be a Grey Knight?
>>98600802Votann suck because they have a handful of cool as fuck models and then a bunch of shit ones.On top of that no one can agree which ones are the cool ones. Some guys say they like t he Nasa look, other people like the vikinig look, other people like the robots but no one likes all three at once.
>>98600845infinite and the divine clearly describe the modern hrud >>98600770what the other anon >>98600804 posted in his pic and described are the old hrud/space skaven which hasn’t been brought up since 3rd edition ended (if that).
Just finished getting the base camo pattern on. This and the Stormlord I'm working on are my first real attempts at Steel Legion "ash wastes" tank camo.
>>98600832>When was the last time they were mentioned again?They started getting mentioned a lot around 8th edition in codexes, that's when I noticed. They came up again in the Tyrannic War lore at the start of 10th.
>>98600836There are three hrudposters, genius.
Last minute collage submission. Finished the last of Bile's apprentices. The severed hands count as trophies, right? Had to slop him together real quick. I'll never forgive the postal service for making me have to give up on my original project. I'll have to save my American history X diorama for when joke/reference wins, i guess.
>>98600856Hey Jackass, provide more information than a game image and a first name if you want anons to care
>>98600866There's also this insert from White Dwarf roughly 10 years ago, so they've been the bendy Hrud for a long time
>>98600862I only like all three when the viking is very subdued. I think the Grimnyr is exrtremely shit. Also every named character they have sucks. Voreman and Boss Cthigger suck so fucking much, I hate it. I'm glad they're dogshit unusable though.
>>98600802He looks like Eggman trying to be TF2 Medic. These destinyfags have far better taste than I expected.
>open thread>the mutant has already racked up a ban in itJeez, man.
>>98600855ntaRight in the beginning, when orikan is infiltrating trazyn's museum he sets a bunch into a frenzy to distract trazyn>>98600872No there aren't
>>98600873>I'll have to save my American history X diorama for when joke/reference wins, i guess.mein fuhrer, joke/reference lost to retro by two votes…
>>98600891>No there aren'tThere definitely are because I'm the ritual poster and I only made one other post about Hrud in this thread, everything else was other anons
>>98600866>posted in his pic and described are the old hrud/space skaven which hasn’t been brought up since 3rd edition ended (if that).If Kill Team Hrud became a thing they would probably look like the Nocturnal warriors, who don't have faces that we can see and are distinct from ratmen who are imperial mutants anyway.
Should I go to Nova Open in DC?
>>98600904>should I do tourneyfaggotryLol no
>there are people GENUINELY pretending to want shitty swamp things as an entire armycalling them people is being too generous
>>98600894>Retro wonI mean I'm not exactly mad about that. Just gotta pick something out. Maybe the 2nd edition juggerlord or something.
>>98600886You really should play destiny so you can see the designs in that game and realize how insane you are.
>>98600779>deletedlol should have known.
>>98600906B-But muh AoS Kruelboyz!
>>98600904>AmerimuttShould probs kys
>setting up 2k tankspam guard list>1945/2000, want to fill it for round numbers autism reasons>adding 1 scout sentinel would be kind of pointlessAre the hull lascannons on LR Vanquishers worth spending 5 points each on? I have 3 lascannons I can easily swap off to get me 70 points so I could fit a Hippogriff.I figure the vanquisher cannons are more than enough insurance against whatever needs to die that the lascannons are a bit overkill, but I also haven't spammed tanks in 40k.
>>98600898It would probably be a mix, with some (maybe one specialist) gas masked and some with visible faces.
What about a retro hellblaster?
>>98600920Sounds like fun
>>98600906>he doesn't want a new 40k army where GW can absolutely go nuts coming up with completely new units and designs not really beholden to any old loreWeak fag.
What's a good retro marine chapter color scheme?No Ultramarines with the yellow trimNo old school Minotaurs, I did one of those for you fags already
>>98600904I do not recommend it. Most big tournaments for any /tg/ hobby are pretty fucking awful. You get a lot of the worst min-maxers and rules lawyers imaginable. Tournament 40k is rough since slow play really isn't defined and judges/TOs can be pretty inconsistent in what they say. Going with some friends from locals can be a fun trip, but going solo is just awful. Most of the people showing up want to win, not have a good a time. You will also find some of the exemplars of the worst stereotypes for the hobby
>>98600906>people like thing>WOW FUCK PEOPLE FOR LIKING THING I'M GOING TO CRY CONSTANTLY FOR YEARS>after some time, gw decides to do thing>you stop crying and move onto the next thing to be a bitch about
>>98600927Crimson fists, naturally.
>>98600927Post the old official successor chapter gallery and let dubs decide.
>>98600923Waste of resources>>98600932Sounds like a lot of projection
>>98600905>>98600931But /ourguy will be there...and there's tons of classes, painting competitions, showcases, vendors, etc. I didn't even think the focus was competetive warhammer. https://www.novaopen.com/
>>98600886You should not listen to the Destinyfag trying to advertise his game to you. You will only find an MMO comparable to 40k in terms of wasted potential, retcons, and corporate greed. You will also feel disappointed in both Destiny and 40k in how they highlight each others inadequacies. For example, you will find tons of Chaos Xenos and DAoT tech in Destiny. The DAoT fractions will make you envious and wish Votann are like that, though yu might also see the Leviathan raid and be unhappy the Votann are alike them but not enough. On the reverse level, you will see how they reuse the same factions over and over and you will be disappointed in the company's greed and apathy towards their own game makes you wish they were less asshole to their players. Even GW greed is less than them.
>>98600912I mean they're fine, but as like, a subfaction of a subfaction.
>>98600927I vote for Red Scorpions (Angstrom Incident - Pursuit Squad)
If I ask you guys on some advice on which faction to start out with first, will you give me some?
>>98600939The retard who found a way to make ushoran look bad isn't oursMishmash is /ourguy/
>>98600936>Waste of resourcesMaking cool aliens for the space game about war against aliens is not a waste of resources.
>>98600941Leave your pic & his two axes to me
>>98600947I'll give you advice, but it probably won't be any help
>>98597894Don't forget that multiple instances of the same buff don't stack. For example +1 to hit and +1 to hit from two different sources do not stack. But +1 to hit and +1 BS do stack, because they are different types of buffs that just happen to do similar end effects. >>98600844Yeah this place has some bad apples (which includes the people who constantly give them attention which is what they want so they never leave). Watching model posters or game posters or people asking rules questions get ignored while at the same time the same people shower decalmut with the attention he craves every thread legitimately makes me mad. This place has some cancers.
>>98600941>you will find tons of Chaos XenosThe Imperialization of Chaos cannot be stopped. The Imperialization of Chaos is the ultimate goal of the Emperor and the point of the setting. The Emperor plans to rewrite all of the Immaterium into his image. Abaddon the Loyalist, his greatest ally, is secretly into this plan. This is why he chose the name Imperium Nihilius, to retain the name Imperium.Together, all of Chaos will become theirs. Khorne will wake up on his Golden Skull Throne, not realizing there's anything wrong. Tzeentch will be unable to shapeshift in any form but Space Marines. The only drugs going through Slaanesh will be performance enhancers for Space Marines. Nurgle's Nurglings have already started wearing human hats. The process has begun and cannot be stopped. Besides Daemons, all Chaos on tabletop is already Chaos Imperium. Eventually there will only be Chaos Imperium. Then there will be no Chaos without Imperium.It's already working marvelously. The poster children for Chaos are CSM who fight with Bolters, Plasma, and other Imperial weapons. No Chaos Xenos exist. Daemons will be squatted and soon all Chaos will be Imperium + Spikes.Chaos will become Imperialized. Just imagine what this means, the Immaterium composed of thoughts from countless universes, all being Imperium. This means across all realities, it's impossible to even THINK of non-Imperial things. This is the Emperor's goal.
>>98600951swamp things are not cool aliens
>>98600947What kind of army do you want to play? Like what power fantasy do you have in mind? What, if anything, speaks to you, just glancing at the armies through GW's website?These are the generic starter questions for 40k.
>>98600927Marines Errant, many of the others are a bit too busy or annoying
>>98600947ELDAR
>>98600936>Sounds like a lot of projectionYou were probably the same fag posting shit like this right before EC or Corsairs or Kroot got their releases. Even if not your 'genre' of poster is predictable and gay.
>>98600957This looks cool as shit dude you just have no taste
>>98600927>>98600935This one. Now let dubs decide your fate.
>>98600962You're proving his point

Codex Hrud or Codex Zoats first?
>>98600961meds, immediately
>>98600958Huh, I should just buy a ton of war dog kharnivores.
>>98600935>>98600963Allright you heard himBest get winsIt will be on a firstborn tactical marine.
where's my new hammer and bolter episode james? you promised it in august and it's almost september
>>98600954>>98600958I like the Imperial Guard, Sisters of Battle, Tau and Thousand Sons. Also the Salamanders and Dark Angels, but I don't want to get into the hobby straight into spess muhreens.>>98600960I also like what I've seen of Exodites, but as I understand it, they're not actually an army yet just like a sidegame kit?
>>98600972Codex Jokaero first naturally
>>98600956This really highlights how WHFB and AoS Chaos have their own cultures distinct from the good guy factions even besides the Chaos parts. In 40k though, it's all ex-imperial daddy issues with or without Primarchs involved.
>>98600762
Tournament usage in recent weeks. I don't know why Sisters are so unpopular.
>>98600967>literal whoway to out yourself as a tourist lmao>>98600980you didn't see the announcement that it's been delayed till october I take it
>>98600963>brother where are the pixelsangels sanguine
>>98600927Brazen Claws
>>98600990>delayed till october
>>98600985They're just part of Imperial Agents desu
>>98600954>>98600958>>98600960OH AND, I like Imperial Agents. But I got told they're not a real proper army, more like an army list you only make a full army of if you're feeling like suiciding the day after when you realize you wasted a ton of money and you really just take them as allies in the other Imperium forces?
>>98600958I played Lost Judgment in English and I couldn't stop hearing Drifter's voice in Kuwana.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98600939No idea who the guy in the super pixelated image. If you're in the area and don't have to get a hotel, a basic day badge can be a fun way to explore and see what it's about if you've never been to a nerd con before. However, a lot of the classes and competitions might have additional fees. Make sure to check what the ticket you buy grants you access to. I haven't been to Nova open, so I don't know how it does things differently form other cons. Still don't recommend going alone as being alone in a massive crowd can be depressing. Also, don't expect the vendors to sell anything cheaply. A lot of vendors charge more than you might find online unless it's the last day of the event.>>98600941Isn't Destiny in EoS?
>>98601008What won't a DEldar graft onto themselves?
>>98601008That art is cool as shit, saved
>>98600927>>98600979Brotherhood of a thousand
>>98600963>>98600979Black Wings
>>98601008They really deserve it. Given the Eldar refresh I think a DE refresh would be incredible. Although the faction is so rare to see, I could see it still being a low priority sadly
>>98600947Assuming you don't have an army for aos or tow or something, look at armies that are...>easy to paint>don't have terrible points-per dollar ratios>have lore you likeI'd also advise against space marines because they're the subscription model army for piggies.
>>98601008No shit its coming its just a matter of when

>>98600762I'm sorry she'll be squatted in a year
started working on a helmet for a farseer projectI don't think I will finish in time for the end of september but if I do I'll submit it for the collage.
>>98601032Errant pattern is peak
>>98600941I want LoV to be both Loyalist Cabal AND Rasputin. I want LoV to have giant AI cores from a lost, past golden age of tech for humanity. I want their individual characters to be clones made from mashing stored DNA sequences. LoV has none of these. They don't even have plasma heated blades or bolters in shotgun form.
>>98601028>>easy to paint>>don't have terrible points-per dollar ratiosWell, could you guys give me some pointers for how good or bad those points are for the armies I listed?>>98600984>>98601003
>>98601034>>James can already not balance/update current factions in a timely mannerThey've almost finished updating everything anon, there's practically nothing left once DE get theirs which is obviously coming soon. You've got like a couple Eldar units left, Catachans for Guard, another big wave for Votann, maybe expanding World Eaters and Emperor's Children with a few more units, but at that point it's time to start adding new factions, like Dark Mechanicum, maybe expanded Exodites, and then what?Hrud are the alien race that doesn't have models with is probably mentioned the most in codex lore blurbs.
>>98601042wrong pic I managed to squish it somehow

>>98600984What power fantasy do you want to have when you play? What is your mental image of how (you) would play?How comfortable are you in painting intricate details on tiny models?

>>98601062I paid $50 for him without a backpack lmao I got hosed. Had a librarian with a 2E MkIV pack though I'm stealing
>>98601059Is saliva okay?
>>98600984>GuardShould be fine, depends on how many foot sloggers you want. If you want to have a bunch of "hold the line" it might be rough. Also, don't go looking into alternate regiments or you'll get sad and then have to go to like Wargames Atlantic.Also this will probably have bigger initial costs but smaller longtime costs if you buy the right vehicles.>SistersDon't. If you only said sisters and no other faction then it would be a yes but the answer is no.>T'auI strongly believe that all auxiliaries deserve nothing but an genocidal cleansing. Based pick potentially, but will also be a little suffering if you want the clean aesthetic real T'au is known for. If you want Halo Covenant, you will NOT get it here; don't even fucking try. If you wanna play Kroot you can I guess, but then we're sworn enemies.>T. SonsI would advise against this for a similar reason to the Sisters but worse. You will either be extremely miserable and probably quit painting the trim on them, or it will be your only joy in life.>Space MarinesFuck it man, why not. Are you ashamed of what brings you joy? Many people only play or collect space marines. Just be aware that you will be getting the most new releases of any faction, so if you're weak to shiny trinkets and the new toy effect it might be way too expensive.>Imperial AgentsThis isn't an army, it's a box GW puts the cool one off minis they make into because they lost a copyright lawsuit about miniatures without rules in the last decade.>ExoditesKill Team Models that will have 40K rules. Will be VERY expensive if you wanna make them the bulk of your force.I was gonna try give you a rough "total army cost" for each of the factions to get to 2K points, but you'll probably wanna start with 600 point games at best and also it'd take me a long time. Go google it, there's probably some youtube videos on the topic.
>>98601069>What power fantasy do you want to have when you play? I guess the underdog fantasy of the IG are what immediately attracts me most? I picked those because they all look and feel cool to me though.>What is your mental image of how (you) would play?I have no idea, I've never played before.>How comfortable are you in painting intricate details on tiny models? What is your current painting ability?Zero.
>>98600988Their rules are bad right now, especially into what's popular. You're gonna be underrepresented in competitions when your nightmare matchup is 60% of the field, even you roflstomp the other 30%
>>98601074No anon, those kinds stop being used in Phase 2. Said Phase 2 is easier than Phase 1 because his moves are less random and more telegraphed. That is okay for a video game but not tabletop.
>>98601069My bad. I thought the noise about Destiny and how it handled content meant EoS and not maintenance mode. Never played so I'm mostly out of the loop
>>98601074I want more of this. Less>eldritch horror>I'M GOING CRAZYbut instead>eldritch horror>I'M GOING SANE
>>98600904to play, good luck getting an event ticket now.to go and hang out, ya it's worth it. 40k GT is kinda soulless tourney slop, but narrative 40k is soul and you have a lot of other events that are worth walking through. 40k teams usually has a bunch of people doing army displays. Catalyst is there as a vendor if you want to get into battletech and GW has a booth if you want some resin.
>>98601053>practically nothing left>proceeds to outline a bunch of shit that will take GW decades to doI don't think you understand how slowly they move, anon. They have to spend half of each edition working on 10 million mahreenpiggy codexes and churning out more marines but with less cool details just so they can squat them another few years down the line
>>98601090Does WHFB Throgg count? Chaos made him smarter than normal trolls.
>>98600963>>98600979Blood Ravens
Anyone else been working their way through the Horus Heresy novels lately?
>>98601052Tau are alright, I think. Guard are one of the more expensive armies and I think sisters are up there too. Sisters and 1ksons (really just CSM and any monogod army) are hard to paint.As exodites go it's just gonna be the one killteam launch, but you could kitbash and mix some bits to make some nice exodite-looking guys. killteam kits are always a good way to get a bunch of bits.
>>98601053Hrud will never get models
>>98601077Small warning about IG, armies with less models but bigger ones tend to be easier to start because there's less total model to pain and bigger means less detail-intensive when painting smaller bits. Not to say you can't, but it'll be a slight bit harder as a starter.
>>98601057I was going to say this is going to be the simplest and easiest collage project I’ve done yet because I just have to paint my couple last chancers, but I just looked at my guys who’ve been in alcohol for three straight months, and acetone for the past few days and the PAINT HAS STILL BARELY COME OFF! I might get to the middle of the month before I can actually paint these dickheads.
>>98601111Quads confirm
>>98601075>because they lost a copyright lawsuit about miniatures without rules in the last decade.Ok well now I'm terribly curious about this.>>98601103Oh, so Exodites aren't actually going to eventually become a proper army? I thought I saw some anons talking about future releases for them.
>>98601116look at him on the left, its like he’s mocking me.
>>98600886>>98600802Looks more like Dr Wily than Eggman.
>>98601128He's got that Heihachi hair.
>>98601072you know what, I actually don’t envy you anymore. still kickass you own him though. what chapter will he be?
>>98601100I'm on my 3rd trip. This time audible and going by the list of the abridged version GW is re-releasing in hard back to see if its decent with about 40 some odd books cut out. it is. A lot of those books are utter dog shit.
>>98601120I only vaguely know the details, I could be wrong so take this with a bunch of salt but my understand is another company was selling models for something that exists in universe for 40K and had rules but GW did not have a model for. GW attempted to sue them for copyright infringement for using the 40K IP and lost because the court ruled that since there was no official model by GW to use it was fair use to make the model and sell it, but they couldn't use GW copyrighted terms.It may be apocryphal, I might try google it more later.

>>98601120>so Exodites aren't actually going to eventually become a proper army?Typically, KT has been used as something of a creative outlet for the sculptors to go wild with some cool unit, even refreshing/adding some subfaction. Unfortunately they just tend to do this as a one-off, see how the vespid KT didn't herald a whole new "auxiliaries" update for Tau, or the mandrake KT didn't come with a DE refresh shortly after. So there's very little chance James does actually flesh exodites out more than this one unit, but also the fact that exodites haven't existed as minis before is giving people hope that they still might. I hope so too, but it's a very GW thing to just leave the cool subfaction as just one unit that was pumped out for cred points.

>>98601094I outlined shit that they will finish in a single year, have you even been paying attention to how fast releases have been since 8th?Many of these existed beforehand in terms of lore or minor side units in other codexes, but in terms of new fully supported codex factions with expanded units:3rd edition added Dark Eldar, Tau, Necrons and Daemonhunters4th edition added Black Templars and Chaos Daemons5th edition added Grey Knights (replacing Daemonhunters)6th edition added Imperial Knights7th edition added Adeptus Mechanicus, Deathwatch, Custodes, Harlequins, Genestealer Cults, Thousand Sons8th edition added Death Guard, Chaos Knights, basically completely redid Space Marines and Sisters of Battle9th edition added World Eaters and Leagues of Votann10th edition added Emperor's Children and combined a bunch of recent Kill Team stuff into Imperial AgentsWe usually get at about two new codexes every single edition, so expect something like Dark Mechanicum or Iron Warriors (one or the other, maybe combined into a single force, they definitely won't do both) coming in 11th and that leaves probably one more. Exodites as their own book? Maybe, but I doubt it, more likely they're just a few units in Craftworlds. So don't put something like Hrud or Zoats out of the question. Next year is the 40th anniversary of 40k and GW doing a Codex Zoats as a throwback to Rogue Trader would not be completely unbelievable.
>>98601077>underdog fantasyThat's what initially got me into guardYou CAN play guard like that, or you can play guard as if you're in the PLA on June 4, 1989 and you just got ordered to drive a tank into Tiananmen Square.>I have no idea, I've never played beforeYou described one play fantasy of guard, so you can clearly figure it out at least in part without playing. Just apply a bit more imagination into what you think it'd be like with the units presented to you.>big guns?Guard>fire and "too angry to die?"Sisters>mechs and flyers?Tau>magic?Thousand Sons>fire and no downsides whatsoever?Salamanders>Plasma and knightly shit?Dark Angels>ZeroHow willing are you to stick with something after saying to yourself "this was a bad decision?"If you give up easily, pick Tau or a Space Marine faction. Bigger models with less detail are easier to paint.If you don't give up easily, pick Guard. You'll eventually get into the "I like the way this sucks" mindset and learn to enjoy the pain. Then you can consider getting into Sisters afterwards.If you stick through it to the end no matter what (and are angry the whole time), pick Thousand Sons.If you stick through it to the end no matter what (and develop because of it), pick Sisters.
>>98601167>they will finish in a single yearDohohohoho! Oh wait you're serious? Let me laugh even harder! We'll get Iron Warriors and probably DE refresh this edition, that's it.>Codex ZoatsC'mon now son. It'll be one mini in a KT or something like that. Otherwise where's Codex Tarellians?
>>98600933Well so far this is the only guy who got dubs and nobody who replied to >>98600979 got themI'm about to head to bed, so if there aren't any trips when I get up in the morning, Fists it is.
>>98601150Oh that reminds me, are there any unspoken rules about conversions in games? Like, if I ever decide to go try out a tournament, will I get kicked out if my model is anything but the official GW mini doing the same pose that's in the box art, or can I use pieces of other minis, change the pose, what's generally the limit of what's acceptable before someone either I get disqualified at a tournament or someone starts giving me shit in more casual games?
>>98601150>Mandrake Kill TeamI'm still assmad at no Kheradruakh model from 5th edition when they did the update to them. I'm glad they're out of finecast hell, even if I think a couple of them suck like the one with the bat wing cape magic shit

>>98601143I did that for so long with no results, so I went to walmart to get a hard brush meant for grout and its STILL not coming off.side note: is there a chance those bristles would be too hard for a plastic model? I figure metal can take it, but I don’t know if plastic can get scratched by it because I have a lot of plastic models in similar straits (though they’re in 91% isopropyl)
>>98601156kino
>>98601184Maybe get some biostrip or a mini brand paint stripper? I've managed to strip even the most abused models, got no clue what unholy paint you're fighting against but acetone should have done the trick. Unless they're literally incased in superglue or something.
>>98601179Things are much more loose these days. We used to have What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG), which is to say that a dude only had a plasma gun in his stats if he was physically carrying a plasma gun on the model, and this was important when shit like plasma guns were a points upgrade. Nowadays special weapon options are baked into the unit price and aren't a separate upgrade (which yeah, sadly reduces listbuilding options, no reason to not take the strongest gear) and as such WYSIWYG went out the window.>what's generally the limit of what's acceptableIn an official Warhammer tourney these days it just has to be GW minis.
>>98601176More realistically it wouldn't be "Codex Zoats" but maybe something like "Codex Xenos Mercenaries" that mixes tons of little odd minor xenos the way Imperial Agents does.But just to remind you, /tg/ has doubted almost every single fucking new thing GW has released over the past 10 years. The following used to be a list of stuff people were convinced were NEVER EVER getting plastic models:>primarchs>custodes>death korps of krieg>genestealer cults>squats>exoditesAnd look where we are.I remember even after Magnus came out and I said Mortarion was next, because Death Guard had already been announced as the enemies in the 8th edition start box, you had anons fucking DEATHLY convinced that was impossible. And then after Mortarion came out, I said Angron and Fulgrim were obviously coming too, and you had some literally fucking absolutely certain GW was going to stop at only 2 Cult Daemon Primarchs for some reason. It wasn't until Angron got revealed that the stubborn retards finally admitted okay yeah Fulgrim is coming too. Until the reveal of Leagues of Votann nobody would have believed Squats were getting unsquatted. You had guys just a few months ago who would swear on their lives Exodites were never getting models. You guys are always fucking wrong, every time.So do I think this means HRUD CONFIRMED or ZOATS CONFIRMED, no, but it's way more likely than people give it credit for.
>>98601176It should be Codex: Minor Xenos and have the rules for Sslyth, Zoats, Hrud, Vespids, Kroot and all the other fuckass ugly aliens that don't belong anywhere else>>98601179Don't model for advantage (making the models much smaller or otherwise try to obscure them from line of sight etc).Also some tournaments, usually only the really big sanctioned ones will have a "GW plastic only" where some greenstuff milliput sculpting would be fine, but whole 3D printed torsos and limbs would not.
>>98601196>squatsWhich we still don't have btw
>>98601205AI?
>>98601053I need my update for my niche 3rd founding chapter that had a unique model bck in 2nd edition.
>>98601177Dub dubs. Crimson Fists it is anon! Welcome to thr chapter
>>98601205Not really commenting on whether Leagues of Votann are a proper faithful adaption to the original Squats but the point is they exist at all and no one would have believed you if you time traveled back before the rumours started and told everyone it was coming.
>>98601196To be fair, custodes and primarchs shouldn't have gotten plastic models
>>98601205Bro your necromunda?
Zoats are literally nids.
>>98601225Agreed, but not the point.
>>98601196There isnt enough support for a broad codex for minor xenos races. Its more likely that GW introduces zoats into.kill team with a few lore tidbits about how the tau or chaos adopted them.Next primarch to return will be sanguinius or russ.
>Imperial Agents range expansion>Grey Knights refresh>Dark Eldarr refresh>Votann range expansion>EC range expansion>TS range expansion>WE range expansion>Demon refresh>Iron Warriors range expansion>Catachan refreshExpect this to be the most we get for 11th. After that we can start looking into new shit, at which point it will start with obvious ones like Traitor Guard (12th) or Dark Mechanicum (13th). Followed by Exodites for 15th and by then they'll need to start refreshing Death Guard or some shit and the cycle repeats. Don't forget all the marine piggys they have to satisfy, along with all the chapters that have /nomodels/ like Salamanders, Iron Hands, Ravenguard, and White Scars.
>>98601219Funnily enough, I don't have the proper navy blue paint because almost nothing I've done in the past few years uses common blue shadesIt will probably be a refreshing break from Ushabti bone and Yriel Yellow
>>98601235We're not even getting a third of that.
why is it never in stock
So does Lames Jewshop just put all their boring models as Ultramarines, and then funnel their specialist modellers into other games/races? The citadel paintjobs for space marine is so generic and boring it's rather offputting.
>>98601136Yeah some of the books just really drag or have just zero real motion in the story, Descent of Angels comes to mind as the first point where I read one and was like 'oh it's just nothing'. Also could not stand the Alpha Legion story in The Primarchs anthology so I just dropped it, they might be more boring than Corax. Alpha Legion in general is just annoying, the manlet primarchs. I just finished Betrayer and had not been spoiled over Erebus murdering Argel Tal, shit shocked me, one of my favorite characters so far. Really enjoyable it though, Angron and Lorgar as a duo was a great dynamic. Fuck Erebus.
>>98601223>proper faithful adaptionIt's not that thoughbeit, Votann are a whole different entity/organisation. It's like saying SoB are marines because they're both in power armour
>>98601232>There isnt enough support for a broad codex for minor xenos racesThere isn't right now, but all it takes is something like>Kill Team Zoats>Kill Team Hrud>Kill Team Tarellians>can take Kroot separate from Tau>can take Aeldari Corsairs separate from Craftworlds>can take Freebootaz separate from Orksetc
>>98601235>>Imperial Agents get stormtroopers, jokaero and daemonhost teased, instead GW gives them another ugly named female inquisitor and a random kill team of Sclopio Peepian heretic killers>>Grey Knights but now they're primaris, baby carrier stays>>Dark Eldar kabalites, vect and raider even though it is pointless and doesn't need it refreshFixed that for you
>>98601235I know 11th is 4 years, but I still don't think any of those range expansions are happening on anything more than a technicality. I would expect one model each tops.>3 refreshesYou'll get GK or DE and no Demons. Best I can do.
>>98601239My problem with nu eavy metal is that they go absolutely batshit with highlights and not in a good wayGo look at the box art of a Primaris and a Tactical Squad Marine. Notice that the Primaris is like 30% highlights and the Tactical is like 5%.
Is Vect really getting a space dragon mount? SICK
Zoats are literally already in Kill Team.>>98601243>corsairsI like how the news cycle moves so fast that people forgot GW had crucible rules 6 months ago, then removed them with 11th and now corsairs can't make a generic corsair prince as the datasheet does not exist, only yriel.
>>98601248Name one edition GW hasn't done multiple massive range refreshes.
>>98601202kroot and vespid belong to the tau empire bud.
I know no one cares at all and didn't ask but......15 out of 30 models finished being assembled. The tank and dreadnought were extremely annoying to build. I think by next weekend at the latest I can have this army painted up and ready to play (i have no idea how to play custodes)
>>98601177Hell yeah.
Kill team Men of Iron.
>>98601258Kroot and Vespid belong in the fucking ground. Get them away from my soldiers.
>>98601177Can't go wrong with the OGs
>>98601260You are quickly becoming the second most annoying person in this thread with this attention seeking behaviour. Some model posts just don't get replies anon, its seriously not a big deal.
>>98601260>using a female headGay, fuck off.
>>9860125411th :^)We're so sorry, but we had to pivot following the audience feedback after we removed the tactical squad
>>98601262I should paint some sternguard fists.
When we do hellblasters next month can I just do my tactical with a plasma gun?
>>98601205I too want Imperium lite
>>98601260Nice custodes, what are you doing for bases? Looks like tufts and fish tank gravel?

>>98601205>>98601226The Guard's Abhuman Auxiliaries detachment should allow you to take up to 500 points of Necromunda Squats (but not botans) as allies.

>>98601291It is Ultralesbian trying to get attention after "her" discord quieted down.
>>98601179Depends a lot on the store/event as things can vary a lot. Basic rules are don't make the model smaller than the official, don't make them easier to obscure in terrain, and don't have some guy with a basic weapon be the guy with a special weapon. If it's not a GW mini, you might risk being DQ'd or even banned if it's 3d printed or recast depending on the store/event. Casual play is a total mystery as some people don't care that much and others might care a lot. Furthermore, some stores in my area have started banning 3d printed minis so they're not allowed even in casual play by some people. However, converting a mini to be something is usually allowed. Some people are a special kind of dumb and don't really understand stuff like kitbashing and a bit of sculpting so good luck with that.
>>98601303Great, how fun.

>>98601325Just don't take vespid or kroot
>>98601321Literally what the lore has always hinted at, the Tau rely too much on AI and technology and are going to have their own Age of Strife just like Dark Age of Tech Humanity.
>>98601330That eldar autarch looks badass
>>98601333I don't, but the army is balanced around them existing and I would like for that to change
>>98601317Don't listen to them, just chuds salty that they lost. I like female stodes too, it makes no sense to me that big E wouldn't be able to configure the process for wamen too if he so smart.
>>98601342>it makes no sense to me that big E wouldn't be able to configure the process for wamen too if he so smart.It's not that he couldn't, it's that there would be no fucking reason to, just use men.

>>98601330Don't know much about Tau lore, but Lexicanum seems to say maybe as it only mentions Kroot and Humans by name. https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Farsight_Enclaves
>>98601320speaking as one of the few women to play 40k, I know the femstodes got me interested in the faction. I wanted another all femalw army to play that wasn't as glass cannon as sob, so the retcon + model refresh + value box was an amazing springboard into collecting the army.It got me to spend about 600$ish bux on a full 2k army, which felt really dirt cheap imo especially for a force with infantry and vehicles >>98601342i still dont get the seethe about female custodes desu, it makes zero difference in the grand scheme of things and marines are all still male anyway. I thought most people hated custodes anyway and said they dont belong as an army in 40k, so the outrage seems performative
>>98601342>he so smartAnon...
>>98601357>i still dont get the seethe about female custodesBecause you're a retarded newfag tourist/leftoid freak with an agenda.
>>98601357Tons of women play 40k. My wife has been playing since she was 12. You are not special for buying overpriced plastic army men and your opinion does not matter.

>>98601340>removes units with wings and units with upper arm strengthOkayNow whatTau don't have wings or upper arm strength

>>98601281>>hating womenRetardI don't hate womenIn fact, I practically fawn over idealized fictional depictions of themEven after the recent [Redacted to not get banned] incident, I still don't hate themIf you can't understand why people actually dislike the foidstodes then you won't ever understand much of anything
>>98601374>and asked questions to improve.And now she's lying about what her first army is and actively getting worse at painting
>>98601365I hate all of you, decalmutant and this attention whore and you fags who orbit lolcows and never shut up about them. All of you are fucking vermin who showed up here within just the last couple years tops. I long for the days when the worst we had to deal with was Carnac, at least his shitty lore takes were on topic.
>>98601357Thanks for the the (you)my only issue is that in 40k pretty much every army except space marines has women representation in it.My biggest gripe is why the crusade for female space marines. Why cant there be a male only faction. Why are boys only clubs always torn down.I say this as a tau main who has shadowsun and doesn't give a fuck if my suits are piloted by women or not. But to me boys deserve a safe space even if its just fictional space marines.
>>98601363And you're a furfaggot diaper fetish freak lmao sit down and stfu

>>98601395the spamming of attention whoring and literal offtopic selfies is the reason to hate her>>98601401Yeah I know, I had to explain that to you a couple days ago!
>>98601342I don't really care much but it really doesn't make sense to make females, men are superior when it comes to strength and that's a simple fact.They could've very easily expanded on the sisters of silence or something along those lines but instead it's just hamfisted inclusion for the sake of it.I'm less upset about the fact they're women custodes and more about the fact they just slapped it in with no regard for their past and history.And the worst part is that you can't criticize it without retards going REEE YOU HATE WOMEN
>>98601383You know why
>>98601395Lying to get attention is reason to hate her. Her selfies and discord invites and that nonsense is what makes me personally abhor her.

It's not like them being apart of the palace guard takes away the male custodes. they can be ignored and nothing changes>>98601381for the last time ultramarines was a practice army that I didn't even know how to thin paints on Jesus Christ. Dark Angels is my first army that ive painted start to finish that im keeping and did by myself with no help >>98601383np. i mean the guard mostly seems to be all guys, you only really ever see a female soldier or commisar, uhhh space marines like you said l, orks are all boyz, and all the chaos daemons minus slaanesh are guys. but i do get what you're saying...at least there's a ton of different marine flavours for boys only club>>98601385i actually am lol

So US JG those, unless you ignorantly left crazy layer lines, how does anyone even tell you have 3d printed minis after they're primed and painted without fucking with your models?
>>98601441I mean, that's what my T'au are painted like soo

quit being mean
>>98601468They’re soulless anon, it’s useless
>>98601454Good point, I have no idea regarding the 1-1 scans. Although most 3d printed minis I've seen IRL are not those and not done by people willing to spend the time to learn how to use their printer well. The stores in my area that have banned them did so because they realized that the assholes loudly saying you shouldn't buy the minis and should print them instead were hurting their sales.
Anyone found a recaster or whatever that sells recasts of rogue trader era models?
Quit being
kits and stuff should come with preprinted data sheets for each unit its fucking stupid that they dont include that
Kinda depressing that in 40K, Chaos Marines are scavengers and barely pose a threat to the Imperium except when they stop backstabbing each other temporarily. While in Old World they are gifted and equipped with demonic armor and weapons and are an existential threat. It makes Chaos Marines look like little bitches instead of the big bads of the setting.
>>98601493But anon, then how will GW sell you data sheets?
>>98601493They did, now it's the age of digital where datasheets can be updooted at a moment's notice.
does anyone have an lexicanum dump? it's the worst wiki I've seen on this and the servers are so slow

>>98601540It honestly baffles me that there's not a web version of the app with an "export army to pdf" function that prints all the data sheets with detachment/attached characters rules added in.
>>98601548This is why it's better to not have an official app and a third party autist does it for you, Flechs sheets for Battletech is the best. But noo James has to try and monetise and control everything, serve you a cease and desist just for the thought crimes of thinking up a xenos mercenaries codex
For retro, how old does the model have to be?
>>98601544Yea we’re not afraid to be “cringe” here young blood
>>98601567Cadia was still a round planet when the model wass released
>>98601567It's your defintion of retro, so just give it some goblin green rims and you're good to go.
Did expanding Horus Heresy kill off subfactions in the long run for every faction?>Every Chapter is just the original Chapters, no more will you hear of the others that came later>Warbands is just Black Legion and the original traitor legions, seeing a Chaos Warband that's not those is stupidly rare>All Tyranids are from Hive Fleet Leviathan>All Eldar is just Saim Hann>All Dark Eldar is the Kabal of the Black Heart>All Adeptus Mechanicus is the Priesthood of Mars>All Adeptus Sororitas is the Order of our Martyred Lady>All Adeptus Militarum is just Cadians>All Tau Septs are Vior'la>All Necron Dynasties are just SzarekhanIt's all just ass, and I laugh when the Codexes has some name generators to come up with your own faction.
>>98600818Gaaaaaayest chapter in the setting.
Hard choice here, I like all these models, also have the black reach Warboss that could fit the theme.
>>98601581>>98601594Alrighty this is what I've got, also have 4 metal nobz (3rd edition), an old ork big gun, old snikrot, 4 grot tanks, and a few old genestealers. I wanted to get the old old genestealers but they might be hard to find
>>98601628Do love Zagstruk
Damn it, I thought joke/reference was going to win. was really looking forward to it. I have nothing retro.
>>98601644Luckily GW just made a bunch of space marine kits retro :^)
Erebus is based. He's so comically evil it's hilarious. Also he un-canon Erda.
>>98601644Same, guess I'm skipping
>>98601648as if i'd own any space marines, I have taste.... wait, I have an idea.
You can just paint whatever you have laying around in a retro colour scheme. I've had this guy sitting around specifically for this occasion.Dubs gets to pick the chapter he's painted as.
>>98601715The gay one
>>98601722Anons gonna have to paint them as ultramarines
>>98601722Okay, I'll bite then, so what is the gayest chapter I could paint?
>>98601722Would that be DA, SW or Rainbow Warriors
>open custodes box>heads all fucking uckman this shit is so ass there's like 1 good head in hereI'm going full helmeted
>>98601735Space Wolves
>>98601710god I wish that was me
>>98601057he's a fun model to paint, what scheme will you do anon?
>tfw can't decide between imperial/chaos knights and big stompy tau
>>98601764You will get more matches with T'aupeople do not tend to fancy playing against knights
>>98601757>>98601741My dudes the joke is dead and gone, move on already.
>>98601715>>98601722He has a knight helmet and a power fist. Imperial fists literally eat poo and cum. They are the gay one.
>>98601764but have you considered
Is it a faggot move to want to play knights or?
>>98601764>big tau
>>98601779>the joke is deadHow can you be dead if you're still posting?
>>98601722>>98601781
>>98601330I recall that he was the one who started a widespread use of auxiliaries in a warfare
>>98601788It’s just tiring is all
>>98601797Then leave and it can all be over
>call bullshit on GW's template for exodite terrain pieces>get a cheap bundle of plasticard anyway and try to make pyramids>it is very difficult to bond it all together, it has a pyramid shape but would fall apart if you fucked with it too hard>looks 'good' only from a distance>"dude do you HATE hobbying"Fuck youGive me finished terrain bits on sprueOr knock 20 bucks off the next boxIncidentally I thought I'd have trouble selling the snaggas but for some reason everyone else sold them for more than me. I wonder if they got buffed o algo.
>>98601785Not at all, it’s simply polite and respectful to inform opponents of your intended army and allow a single unit to be deployed to counter said Knights, sometimes 2 units depending on point totals
>>98601794>subtextI don't care what reddit thinks is gay
>>98601810It's not what reddit thinks, it's realitythe chapter is literally named after a poem about being a closeted fag, and their primarch is named after the gay poet who wrote it lmao
>>98601810They would be the experts.
>>98600862How popular are the leagues of votann? Personally I was incredibly disappointed by them and think they don't look very 40k-y.
>>98601827I only like their robots, which are a small part of their rangeSimilar to Tau, where I only like Kroot and Vespid, despite them being a small part of their range
>>98600986I know those were supposed to be all new but it angers me that King Cleaver or Brass Belladonna didn't get a picture
>>98601794I mean it’s definitely emperor’s children
>>98601833Okay, but Tau are extremely popular. Do agree with your love of Kroot though, Kroot are rad as hell.
>>98601814>they have the same names thus are the same thingsyou're retarded
>>98601814>gay poetredundant
>>98601844Look I know it's hard for you to accept but your chapter is the faggot chapter
>>98601848Kek they really are gay as fuck! XD
>>98601844>No bro we just explicitly named them after a faggot in a way that brokers ZERO debate as to the origin of their name but trust me they didn't make them a gay joke!>>98601851Yeah but the space wolves still manage to be gayer LMAO
I'm very tempted to make my 2 units of Dire Avengers be 1 big unit instead for my Aspect Host. As well as buying another box of Fire Dragons and another Wave Serpent and possibly a Falcon or Fire Prism. If I were to replace my Spirit Seer and Wraithblades, who should I replace my Spirit Seer and Wraithblades with? Fuegan? Maugen Ra and 10 Dark Reapers?I love Aspect Host units.
>>98601857Yeah, because it was an allusion to having a dark secret you cannot allow others to know, such as being a homosexual AND a briton. It's not that they were literal fudge packers
I purchased entirely too many models today. When they arrive should I:A) assemble themB) leave them on sprue to use the time painting?
>>98601857Why bring up SWs..that was kinda weird
>>98601858Speaking of Eldar, what are the most niche units in their roster?
Now that they’re getting squatted my unfinished Devastator Squad qualifies as retro right?
I've failed to be convinced of the gayest chapter not being DA, I would have done EC, but I don't have any extra chaos marines laying around. Plus I have another marine with a sword instead of a power fist so this works better anyways.So I will be painting a retro DA for the collage, but I will use the pic related marine instead since it fits better.
I want to buy some scenery so I can play at home, do I just buy some mdf terrain footprints and some walls?
nid bros, how would someone paint these models in behemoth colours? would the entire model just be red apart from the claws? i dont know where the black parts with the blue markings would be
>>98601867B
>>98601892Don't do gay tournament shit. Make something cool yourself.
>>98601879Maybe the night spinner or support weapon platforms
>>98601858Actually, should I make the Avatar of Khaine my Warlord or replace my Spirit Seer with an Autarch instead? And what unit should I put him with? Howling Banshees? Swooping Hawks? Any suggestions would be most welcome.
>>98601892If it’s for playing at home, I would prioritize cool terrain over simple.
>>98601858dark reapers might be nice>>98601950Autarchs aren’t that great usually you want the phoenix lord
Hello. I jerk off to femboys and I only watch 40k lore vids. I never played the tabletop before because the rules are too complicated. Can I still post here?
>>98601964welcome home
>>98601962>Autarchs aren’t that great usually you want the phoenix lordYes but I also like the idea of having my own OC as a Warlord hence why I like generic single units over named ones. Also, should I have 2 Wave Serpents? Or should I have 2 Falcons/Fire Prisms?
>>98601969Thanks man. I really like the Black Templars. Helbrecht is my nigga
dis my nigga if anyone cares
>>98597886Here is my August collage submission>>98601984Same nigga.
>>98601942>>98601955You're right, I was thinking of the map layouts on the chapter approved map cards but buying a bunch of my own shit sounds fineThis stuff is expensive as hell though I'm seeing some cool options
I'm so happy we finally have new Intercessors. The old kit was really showing its age, and these look so distinct and unique from all other marines, it's great.
>>98601990That’s dope. You’re pretty good. I never painted a miniature before and I just jerk off to feminine males so maybe my opinion dont mean much. But it looks good
Is this some sort of false flag? Is one of the shit posters trying to invent a persona worse than themselves?
Never played before & trying to figure out my next purchases based on a list that will be fun to play and not too expensive based on my current collectionThoughts on this listBully Boyz/Runt Swarm/Mad Cap Meks>Nazdreg - 175>5 Meganobz - 185>Mega Warboss (tellyporta) - 125>5 Meganobz - 185>Big Mek SAG - 95>3 Mek Gunz, Kustom Mega Cannon - 165>Big Mek SAG - 105>3 Mek Gunz, Kustom Mega Cannon - 165>2 x Big Mek Dakkarig - 270>5 x 10 Gretchin - 225>10 Boyz - 90>10 Boyz - 90Total: 1875Idea is to have a Mek Gunline that can't be taken out easily by any powerful long range shooting as grot shields can absorb it - then MANZ can deepstrike in and take out any big threats.Before I go ahead ordering 50 grots can someone tell me if this will be fun to play.
>>98602008Yeah. There's a massive difference between the old and new sculpts....
>>98602018Wait until the points update this weekend.
>>98602011Is this some sort of bit? What are you doing? Why?
>>98602008You jest, but I don't like that Bolt Rifle varieties are gone now even on models. If Intercessors weren't replacing Tacticals and had even more Bolt weapons like Carbines and Heavy, I would like them. I like how Space Marine 2 made all those Boltguns different.
>>98602023Based the list on leaked pointsWas asking more if it will work conceptually or if I'll get tabled having that many points in reserve
>>98602008I like the kit too. Its a good compromise between firstborn and the old intercessor kit.
>>98602028Ah, in that case I can't help.
>>98602024I don’t see a 40k gen on /vg/ so I came here. I really like the Black Templars and their black armor. This gen seems pretty active so I’m going to keep posting here. I scratched my balls and sniffed my fingers btw. Smells kinda funky
This is 100% the mutant
>>98602048Huh?
>>98602028I don't play orks but you shouldn't ever plan to 'always start with x and y in reserves'. It's a matchup-dependent thing, against certain armies, currently the scouting orks or slaanesh demons for example, you want to have everything on board from the get go.
>>98602007>buy the kill team Megabox for 255 bucks>sell all the teams, cards, dossiers for ebay scalper prices>get back your money>keep the terrain that comes with it for basically free
They should make a GTA but like in W40k. That would be so cool. Games Workshop should hire me
>>98601990brass templars
>>98601902there are no set rules, you gotta decide for yourself>everything that's not a chitin plate is red>everything that's not a chitin plate and the back, is red>everything that's not a chitin plate and the back and the torso, is red>everything that's not a chitin plate, and the back and the torso and the limb armour, is red>and more variations beside, including inter-brood variations
The last mini of the monthShould I drive to three different GWs to get 3
shit I'm still mad they didn't give me that ork boy a month ago>>98602011that's gay
My exodite obeliskThe pink inside is the clay I used to try and stabilize it.
>>98602099the newest ones and the sculpts before that are easy to figure out which parts are red and black, but the really old / space hulk ones are a bit confusing as that weird centre bit is normally just painted as a flesh part which means that there wouldnt be any black on it. im just gonna come up with my own
>>98600739Based, I never liked marine malovolents
>>98601316I don't like nuvan saar, but I think OG van saar looks fucking rad
>>98602008The article made it seem like there are some mk6 and mk7 helmets, but they didn't show any, so I'm waiting to see the actual sprues in a month
>>98602119Based hobbyist
>>98601858Cute tomato
>>98602113probably not worth it.
made a terminator captain
Wip on my piper makes ghostkeel.
>>98602181desu I don't even feel like going to the one gwBut I also kind of want The Last Free Mini (TM)
>>98602186What about him is differen from a normal termie? A tabard hardly makes him a captain.
>>98602186good start but give him one of those ornamental shields on his shoulder and some purity seals
>>98602188Nice, I like it more than the actual ghostkeel.I'll have to check them out and see if they have a good looking riptide because I don't like the official one
>>98602186>no cape>iron haloCan't be a captain
>>98602188kinda weird for a tau to make a human hand gesture, but maybe he's a guevesaboo
>did such a poor job on trying to fill gaps on a vehicle that it looks worse>tried to magnetise guns not realising that i stuck a magnet in the spot that makes it impossible to turn the turret >took off rivets by accident trying to sand out parts of the vehiclewhat a waste of a perfectly good afternoon. who here turbo hobbylet?
>>98602198there are some some pretty good designs, I was able to find the stl's on telegram so going digging over there if you want them
Made a techmarine
>>98602214Wait you want flustered pent up virgins (male)?
>>98602214
Space Marines don't need to be virgins...
>>98600733Shachi come back
>>98602255Space marines are not virgins, they all get molested and raped by the time they become scouts
>>98602212Hardly call it a waste. A Go proverb says:"Lose your first 50 games as quickly as possible."
>>98600711>TQWeyland-Yutani-style Imperium-controlled/bred Tyranids.
>>98601902just follow the rquivalent parts
>>98602193i was gonna subassemble it but whatever i'll do it in situ>>98602205no capes
>>98602271Ik it's le soulless corporation but do they HAVE to make xenomorphs from people? It feels like such a waste
>>98602271>Imperiumvotann, the imperium doesn't fit that look
>>98602271There's a bunch of Genestealers running around Necromunda because of this exact situation.
>>98602279Give him a cape and a sash and I'd accept him as a captain. Feels like a veteran or sergeant now.
>>98602290"I'm different"
>>98602153inb4 one (1) of each per box
>>98602214We should get female space marines so GW makes more space marine kits.
>>98602290the magos wasn't trying to control them but find a cure
>>98602279>no capesThen not a captain. He'll forever be a lieutenant only.
I was going to paint my exodites as Swifthorn Clan, but I realized since Eldar Knights are not mentioned and probably considered a separate Eldar Subfaction now like Imperial Knights, I should use a colour scheme from the book or just paint them some sea green colour or something.
>>98602307they aren't mentioned because gw has no intention of covering them, not because they're planning them as a different factionyour eldar knight is the wraithknight
>>98602299I think there have been high level conversations about female space marines and i am pretty sure the executives recognize that part of the secret sauce is the fraternal aspect of chapters.
>>98602312or just that alienating their main paypigs with a product nobody actually wants isn't going to pay off unlike the lesser tokens they drop elsewhere
>>98602309>they aren't mentioned because gw has no intention of covering them, not because they're planning them as a different factionExcept all the other stuff they weren't going to cover until they did, and giant robots are an easier sell than ratmen in space or firstborn units.
>>98602321Well, if you're going to expect them in 20 years I'm not going to tell you not to dream on, but if you're expecting them soon then you're missing the writing on the wall.
>>98602008>every unit featured on warhammer community has one white, black and asian marineit seems GW is doubling downwhen will they stop?
>>98602332only when bankrupt
>>98602312One day GW will realise that in order to make female models that sell they're going to have to make them attractive because for a girl, high status means being conventionally attractive so a toy girl that isn't beautiful is worthless and for boys it needs to make their PP hard one way or the other.I am sure we'll never get female marines, but I suspect we'll get a few more shots at female custodes and hopefully someone knocks some sense into them and we get some femstodes with KOLOSSAL KUSTODE KNOCKERS or scantily clad attractive sisters of silece
>>98602334for all the apologising about female custodes for porn reasons the amount of custodes porn has completely flatlined since then what gives?
>>98602312>i am pretty sure the executives recognizehahaha, good one.
>>98602312>the secret sauce is the fraternal aspect of chapters.Unironically no.The secret sauce is marines being able to come up with any idea and it'd fit as a marine chapter theme. The whole point of marines is that all the different chapters have different aesthetics, mentality and culture due to their isolation and propensity to keep to themselves.That's the biggest pull of marines. Want to make tactical spec ops marines with no non-sense attitude to war? We have both Raven Guard and Raptors for that.Want marines with wall autism and built fortifications? You have the Imperial Fists and even Iron Warriors on the chaos side for that.Want cyborg marines who are 90% metal? We have Iron Hands.Want vampire marines? We have both Blood Angels AND Night Lords on chaos side for that.Want Roman Empire in space? Go for Ultramarines.Want Greek in space? Go for Minotaurs.Want viking marines? We have Space Wolves.Want generic ish knight marines? We have Dark Angels, Black Templars and even BA and IF again to an extent at least if you use HH models.It has nothing to do with what gender marines are. They are popular because marines can be tweaked and changed to fit any sort of idea you want.I can guarantee you that people who chose marines did not choose them because it was important to them that marines have dicks between their legs. If you do and actually chose marines based on that, you're unironically a faggot.
>>98602346the secret sauce is marines being manly men with burly bulky hardened hypermasculine silhouettesif marines were completely customisable as you say but were dainty frail thin and feeble then they wouldn't sell
>>98602346Leftist trying to understand anything other than leftism challenge.
>no bro you dont get it its bad sportsmanship if you dont telegraph every move youre going to make and explain every advantage and stratagem buff you have every time i even think about making a move was watching a couple “dont be that guy” videos and this consistently came up, called it playing “gotchas” to not explain everything or not warn your opponent before they make a move and that its a bad thing to do is that fucking real or is it just YouTubers being faggots? that makes no sense from a strategic perspective like why would i warn you about an ambush before ambushing you thats the point right? am I missing something here?
>>98602341Because is still incredibly niche, in general 40k doesn't get that much porn. Like yes there is like 10k images on r34, but lot of it is very old shit, low effort, bad quality or AI slop.And any new decently made pieces only appear once in a blue moon.Also most porn artists who do hear about 40k tend to go with Slaanesh stuff because it is just obvious. "I'm gonna draw porn of the daemons of the sex god in 40k"
>>98602367>Because is still incredibly niche,and yet custodes porn was being made without problems before this ordeal while now it's stopped completely despite claims it would only increase
>>98602341I would not have categorized the amount they had prior as healthy. I feel like there was a spike at the announcement and then it dropped when the new fomo hit. I can think of one artist who draws good 40k lewds regularly and he mostly does guard women and pubes (extremely based). If there was someone doing it consistently prior I'd believe there was something there but I feel it's almost entirely one hit pieces and then artists get the feeling they wanted out of their system and they return to their natural grounds
>>98602352blood angels are sexy vampires
>>98602359It started at the highest level of competition to speed up gameplay. So imagine 2 of the most knowledgeable 40k players in existence doing this. They already know pretty much everything. So it was really just like hey I am going to drop these guys 1.1inch behind this wall, which as a human is mostly impossible so lets just agree instead of me taking 5 minutes. Then it became a way for shit players to whine. Now if someone asks you, Hey you got any fight on death strats? you do need to answer, the rules arent free in this game(yes I know online) So knowledge does need to be shared. So its mostly hey if you deepstrike here, I will absolutely use a reactive move.
Do Aura bearers benefit from their own aura, like Daemon Princes always get benefit of cover thus -1 to get hit effectively.
>>98602352Not really.
>>98602377Yes really, don't be in denial.
>>98602359It sounds like the usual problem of oversimplification. There is the thing of not expecting your opponent to know all your army's rules. So letting your opponent know some important army rules is good practice, but it's been exaggerated and simplified to hell and some idiots expect you to overexplain everything.
>>98602376Yes. Unit is within 6' of itself.
>>98602359Trying too hard
>>98602376>>98602384Except daemon prince's aura affects only infantry and I don't play csm but I'd presume he's a monster himself.
>>98602384Thanks man, I've been eyeing CSM units and looks a nice model to be my warlord. Thinking of collecting some CSM that goes heavy on Daemons, Sorcerers, Possessed and those sort of stuff.>>98602392You're right, he has monster keyword. So he's under the Aura's radius as the bearer but doesn't benefit from it as he's not an infantry.
>>98602381Not really.
>>98602398post one third party option that makes dainty frail thin and feeble marines showing that there's even a drop of demand for them
>>98602359most casual players aren't going to know all their opponents rules. explaining what your dudes can do and what you're trying to do is a friendly timesaving measure. Your opponent COULD take 45-60 minutes to take a turn while they double check all the possible game interactions that your units are capable of- or you just tell them and be chill.
>>98602359Depends on the context, I do tell my opponent if he has forgot a rule.
>>9860235940k is a game you play with someone as much as against them. Keeping up a dialogue and reminding your opponent what you can do and the implications of what they're about to do is just common courtesy. Unless they tell you to stfu, in which case all bets are off.
>>98602346>people like space marines because of the tacked on gimmicks, not because of the space marine aesthetic itselfdumbest post on /tg/the guard do ethnic gimmicks way better than space marines, but aren't nearly as iconic/popular>It has nothing to do with what gender marines arethe warrior is male because humans are built to see it that way. simple as.if you make warriors gender-neutral, you lose the reality anchoring the fantasy. it becomes cosplay/barely disguised fetish
>>98602346that is part of it, but most of these aesthetics that you brought up are mostly fraternal organizations.It's kind of a chicken and the egg situation, It's hard to say at what point female space marines begin to ruin the immersion for players but it's pretty clear that somewhere along the way, it does.
>>98602403Not really.
>>98602229>>98602240
>the only non-marineslop daemon princes in the game are Be'lakor and Syll'Esske>both are imports from the fantasy gamesThat doesn't really feel fair, does it?
>>98602214>>98602460Sorry to hear that you got molested by your uncle as a child.
>>98602465Marine game. Demons were bolted onto it as an afterthought.
>>98602465I have always gotten the impression that GW didn't really like that they had an army that was AOS and 40k compatible. Like they were missing out on sales because of it.
>>98602468But anon, you're my uncle
>>98600927Red Scorpions.
>>98602212>who here turbo hobbylet?Me. I probably can't even fill in gaps properly with greenstuff.I forget to wet my hands and tools. My ArmyPainter sculpting tools have greenstuff stuck on them and I bought silicone brushes for sculpting in hopes that I'll get better. I never got a smooth greenstuff cured result. Always a finger print or something that gives away that a greenstuff gap fill was there. I hate it and I hate myself.>took off rivets by accident trying to sand out parts of the vehicleI think we have all done this before at least once in some variation.Are Tamiya's basic files good enough diamond files that will leave smooth results on metal/resin models anyways?

>>98600958
>>98600958>Like what power fantasy do you have in mind?Imagine someone asks you this and you answer>I want to be a homosexual space elf who prances on the battlefield and when not on the battlefield writes poetry
>>98602030How the fuck is it a compromise? It's just the same intercessors as always.
>>98602495its 100% the same dude who has been saying “intercessors are just updated tacticals” don’t look further into it.
>>98602224You jest but techmarines can be just a dude.
>>98600958>Like what power fantasy do you have in mind?Reaper Squad Leader J, with a flock of my chud reaper squad teammatesyes, it's chaos knights
>>98601858If you don't have more melee punch other than those wb I'd take something like a unit of banshees+Jain Zar, or the new Dino Knights, or Shining Spears. Hard to pick without knowing the rest of your list. >>98601879The indirect fire tank (night spinner) and weapons platforms. After that probably the Crimson Hunter and Hemlock Wraith Fighter(aircraft) only because they kinda suck right now. The great thing about the current Eldar book is that everything else is generally pretty good at one thing or another and can always find a place in a good list. Apart from those listed units above I've seen every other unit in the book used in a good list
>>98602472We've talked about this before here and have come to the conclusion that having a cross compatible army (or at least a few units) actually led to more sales and GW is just infested by corporate cocksuckers who know nothing about anything.
>>98602500>techmarines can be just a dude>posts a dude with techmarine specific armour pieces??
>>98602511The only specific part about him is the belt buckle and the shoulder rims if you wanna be pedantic.
>>98601284Absolutely wild to me that the Necromunea team nailed squats and then GW turns around and shits out Votaan.
>>98602513And the helmet
>>98602508Anyone with a braincell can come to the same conclussion.
>>98602500Ahhh star phantoms.I really need to get my badab book back from my friend.
>>98602511the belt isn’t going to be visible behind the bolter anyway, so just put all the standard techmarine markings on him, and he’d look almost exactly that image.

>>98602517The helmet is just mk7. Techmarines usually get a special helmet.
>>98602500What a shitty techmarine, not even a servo arm.
>>98602522That's very clearly not a standard mk7 helmet on Eresh
>>98602495when you rescale the tactical marine and make it look less goofy due to scaling issues, you're left with something pretty similar to what the new intercessor multipart kit is shaping up to be.a sizeable portion of the primaris aesthetic hate is downstream of how badly GW went about the change (the rest is because they tried to make space marines tactical in a setting where people charge at demon dogs with chainsaw axes).
>>98602472It's not necessarily that they're losing sales as it is not having precise knowledge of what is driving sales. If the box is labeled AoS but the models can be used for three other games, you don't actually know whether AoS is what sells there. And knowing that is important if resources are to be allocated intelligently. But because of how these games have developed over the decades, when the product lines are disentangled, we end up with weird situations like AoS and TOW each developing their own version of Chaos Warriors. And that might make sense if you're doing the accounting for both games' development discretely, and the different boxes are just products A and B, but on the consumer side it looks like a very weird way to do business.
>>98602488Does he have a model in the game?
>>98602513>if you wanna be pedanticThat's literally part of the armour that differentiates him from regular marines.It's not pedantic to point it out
>>98602359You don't have to tell someone what your overall plan for the game is. The point is to speed up the game, eliminate gotchas!, and make the game more enjoyable. So for example my opponent goes ,"hey I want to move this unit here to shoot at your monster and then charge it, you got any rules or something to stop that?" And I say ,"yeah man looks like they'll be able to see and shoot my dude, but I have an ability to reduce charge distance by 2 and I can also overwatch you with this other unit here and they hit on 5s instead". I don't need to volunteer that attempting to charge my guy is a bad idea, just the abilities he has or strats I can use, the rest is up to my opponent. If he moves, shoots, (I don't have to overwatch), and then attempts to charge but then needs a an 11 after my dudes ability, and then fails that charge roll, that's on him. All relevant information was provided, it was his decision to still make a risky play.
>>98602522why does he have a muzzle on? is he meant to be a space wolves techmarine?
>>98602531That makes sense, Ty anon for an intelligent answer. Didn't think about that before. Still don't agree with their choices regarding the matter but I get it.
>>98602460Carry on then. When I'm being a flagrant homosexual I need at least one participant to be my type, and Space Marines are too big generally. I guess I could technically headcanon Phobos as all being twinks/ambushes
Bill and his apothecary boys finally together. Since retro won I'm thinking a juggerlord or a plague marine squad or something next. Or terminators. Or a csm squad. Seriously, deciding what to pick is always the hardest part.
>>98602532The original post didn't mention models.
>>98602524Techmarines man every marine vehicle and artillery piece and the dudes inside typically don't have servoarms because otherwise they wouldn't fit.
>>98602557Still lame. There is plenty of space in the marine's rectal cavity to house one.
>>98602531>it is not having precise knowledge of what is driving salesSales are sales. Doesn't matter which game system they are for, a model selling is a model selling.>And knowing that is important if resources are to be allocated intelligently.If a chaos warrior for TOW sells because people are buying it for AoS and you allocate more resources into TOW chaos warriors the AoS dudes are still gonna keep buying them because the important part is still the model, not the system it's meant for. It's pointless to make this divide and it costs them sales. Do you have any idea how many peope would instantly spend hundreds of bucks on 30k AdMech stuff it it was fully integrated in the 40k codex? Way more than the people who are willing to buy a whole ass separate army for a separate game.
>>98602559yeah but you wouldn't see it even if he had one
>>98602560>a model selling is a model selling.except the jewish suits that manage the subdepartments of gw have decided that the department for 40k and the one for hh must have separate budgets depending on their separate sales so they must count those separately somehow
Finished the breaka boyz squad (bomb squigs pending)
>>98602566TENDERISER HANDS! WATCH OUT BEHIND YOU!
>>98602565Again, even if that's true it shouldn't matter. If people are buying leviathan dreadnoughts like no tomorrow to use in 40k and that makes them allocate more resources to 30k to make more stuff, people are still gonna keep buying that new stuff for 40k.
>>98602574He can't hear you, the helmet is too tight!

>>98602529>a sizeable portion of the primaris aesthetic hate is downstream of how badly GW went about the changeno it's because the primaris aesthetic is too busy while also adding a boring helmet
