They're basically better jedi
decal wolfsucked my space cock to harvest my geneseed into his big ol belly, Primaris style
Do exodite tribes war with other exodite tribes for territory?
So beyond the named faction units all of the other stuff for space marines are interchangeable right?
what's the best faction to play if I want to actually win games?
>>98616716>TQBecause witchblades have been shit for a very long time and continue to be shit.We're still paying for the sins of the jetbike seer council.
>>98616716>TQThe curse of being the less special characters when Farseers exist. That said, they were pretty strong through 10e, enough that the latest dataslate nerfed them despite Eldar's current win rate.
How much theme is too much theme?>bear/slavic themed marine chapter, inspired by the giant bears of their recruting world>axes and round shield bits taken from space wolves, lightning claws, bear pelts and heads as capes takes from some other kitbashable plastic STLs>no bear mounts, psykers are more like druids and not bear priests calling the power of the bear world wind etc
I need a Warhammer 40k trans gf to pump my seed in
>>98616725No, they exclusively play shadow games of bakugan for those.
>>98616737So theyre just space wolves but cooler and better and not gay?I like it
>>98616751they're still gay, just tops
>>98616716>TQGW has decreed that eldar aren't allowed to be good right now. wait until the codex drop where hopefully they get a glow up into unless we get another round of nerfs because some crybaby marinefag GW employee lost to some hyperspecific seer council combo.
>>98616730I don’t know. I never played the tabletop. I just watch warhammer lore vids and jerk off to femboys
>>98616737Basing a chapter around an animal always ends up making your marines look like some sportsteam mascots.
daily reminder leman russ sucks big red wolf dicks.
>>98616722luckydecal hardly ever sucks my cock any moreever since 11th ed dropped he’s been too busy watching lore videos
You running any metal in your army?
Post models, gents!What're you working on? What's your plans for this month's collage?
>Limited
the officio assassinorum should have an edgy swordsman assassinit would be cool
>>98616737>How much theme is too much theme?"Too much" is the usual GW thing of adding "wolf", "blood," "bio-," and forced suffixes like that to every other noun in the lore.>>98616778
>>98616777
>>98616776I have lots and lots of metal.>>98616777Advanced space crusade scouts. Still haven't figured out which chapter though.
>>98616777Not sure if I'll have enough time this month to paint something for the collage unfortunately. Here are my sorcerers though
>>98616737This much >>98616789
I have a serious storage problem, I have a 4foot by 1.5foot space that is just mtg card boxes and all my warhammer models/tools/paint
>>98616789Would be cool
When the fuck are they gonna finish the Bequin trilogy so I can get a cheap omnibus?
>>98616776My weirdboy is metal
>>98616792>Still haven't figured out which chapter though.I have a suggestion :)
>>98616776I wish I could
>>98616789>SLOW RIDE>TAKE IT EASAY
>>98616800sell the mtg cards and buy more models
>>98616803>When the fuck are they gonna finish the Bequin trilogyAfter the rewrite that includes the new female Custodes character. I wish I was wrong.
>>98616776His arm is literally a penis
>>98616774wait a secondDecal still sucks your cock?He hasn’t sucked my cock since he started on the hellblasters which was a year ago at this point
>>98616807As funny as that would be I'm thinking one of the first founding chapters featured in the artwork for the boxed game
>>98616737Could a bear skull be added?
>>98616734Necrons have been consistently good for years and that is unlikely to change since one of the lead balance team members has them as his favorite army. Marines are also always strong. Custodes are generally strong. Orks are arguably the strongest right now but we'll see how their new codex mixes things up.Although I am obligated to say this isn't really the metric you should go by when selecting an army. With the exception of Necrons and Marines, things come and go from the top win rates, and by the time you get an army and paint it up, it may have already changed.When selecting an army, you should go with the guys you want to read about the most, or the guys you want to see on your shelf. Rules and win rates change with the wind (unless you're necrons or marines), but the hobby aspects of the game are forever. >>98616776No, thankfully. I updated all my marines and SoB from metal.
>>98616730Right now, the "faction-specific" detachments can't be used with units that have other CHAPTER keywords.This is probably a stopgap until the codex comes out but it does mean that you can mix-and-match chapter-specific detachments as long as you only run marine units with no CHAPTER keywords. So Salamander 2DP detachment + Black Templar 1DP detachment is totally kosher as long as you don't have Vulkan He'Stan, Adrax Agatone or any of the Black Templar specific units.
>Exodite boneseer>reads the future in the notes produced by striking bones against one anotherSure, why not.
>>98616782They should name him Kirito and he should be super strong to the point where even a Custodian don’t know if they could beat him
>>98616836this but unironically
>>98616734Custodes, knights, necrons.Don't pick an army to win. Pick an army that looks cool.
>>98616777now that I’m done with. the august collage I’m finishing up these boyz. then I’ll do a couple of last chancers I bought used cause I believe they were made in 1995 or something.
>>98616819This is middle school bully tier commentary, knock it off and grow up.
>>98616841I really got to start double checking if I attached the image.
>>98616777Got some dreads coming in the mail soon. Want to prep and prime them before winter hits.
>>98616831Necrons are so bland though, all they know is ancient egypt robot skeletons eat hot chip twerk sex with black man.>>98616840>Pick an army that looks cool.I did that and picked Inquisitors, then you fags told me they never win. I want to WIN.
>>98616834I wish I had a warhammer estrogenized failed male gf who’s a boneseer. The only bone she would be seeing is the one in my pants
>>98616844Im just annoyed at the apparent bias in your cock suckingYou havent sucked me off in months but your giving these guys wolfjobs on the daily?>>98616840This just pick whichever army is the coolest to you, which should be necrons
>>98616815I just finished the Eisenhorn trilogy and I want to know that the fuck happens to him after.
>>98616862You know I play Necrons too right you little punk?
>>98616868necrons are fucking gay retard lmao
Why is geedubs allergic to giving Eldar any cool moments? They let the elves in fantasy get some wins. Meanwhile 40k Teclis does a whole lot of nothing
>>98616730Yes.go on waha, and to space marines, then select no supplements. You will see all the generic SM stuff.
Collage idea: Goblin Green painted bases
>>98616862>WolfjobSomeone edit the wolfjob pic to have the classic decalfag helmet and maybe a tasteful limited decal. Don't forget to include his car in the background.
>>98616868No you dont lol you havent played the game or engaged with the hobby in a yearYou dont belong here dude, youre a secondary at best
>>98616876You guys are really becoming detrimental to the thread with all the decal spam bullshit
>>98616872Cute Eldar boy feet. That’s why
>>98616776All my infantry are metal. Still using 1999 sculpts across the board.
2nd, 3rd or 4th - which edition should I start to play? I'm leaning towards 3rd but I'm surprised with the traction 2nd edition has.
>>98616789holy shit these fucking suck
>>98616907Play what everyone else at your LGS is playing, retard. Unless you like playing by yourself.
>>98616907pretend to play 4th then come into the thread and throw fits when you make false claims about the rules and people call you out
>>98616916I have my own playgroup. I'm the one that names the games we are playing and I want to focus on a single edition. I have a total freedom and control over what edition is played.
>>98616776>a few nobz>warboss>converted runtherd>ravenersI have a bunch of unpainted shit too from over the years
>>98616722Why did the mod decide to leave this comment up, curious.
>>98616782do I get the vision? or too much anime protagonist energy
>>98616907Play 1st edition instead.
>>98616777A few old old genestealers, posted one in the last thread. Outside of that i have an aberrants squads that's almost done, a half painted ridgerunner, more genestealers, a bunch of half painted neophytes and fuck knows what else. I have a problem with focussing on shit atm
>>98616927You sound like they barely tolerate you
>>98616808>tfw got the one with the mic coming in the mail soon Not like I needed another magus but it will be great to have a metal gsc model
>>98616782Before you were born.
>>98616848I like that you are dedicated painter of orks i fucking hate you for being a piece of shit ritual poster
>>98616938The opened-up shirt seems out of place, but at a glance it seems to work aside from that detail.
>>98616951Choppa should be bigger
>>98616951doesn't count
>>98616792Interesting to see what you have planned for the collage as the theme is literally made for you
>>98616947Yes, I assume this is exactly why they decided to have gaming weekends every second week, ask me to have hobby game outs and rely on my game recommendations.
>>98616972Your larp needs workYou don't have any friendsYou will now start crashing out and calling this projection
>>98616967I mean I dont mind it being retro but I was pretty stoked for joke/reference
>>98616972You’re pompous but I like your leadership qualities
>>98616956he could have a skintight suit underneath
>>98616959Skill issue. >>98616960You don't count.
>>98616992>skintight shirt under my skintight suit
>>98616942Nah, I names those specific editions for a reason.>>98616989Seethe.>>98616991It's actually not hard to have a decent gaming group if you recruit from the same workplace - from my experience different work schedules are the biggest obstacle for having a stable group.
>>98616992Needs more belts.
>>98616992>tactical bulge to intimidate the enemybased
>>98616992I think Square-Enix gon' sue somebody
>>98617001>seetheYes, that's what you're doing larper
>>98616992
>>98616992BIGGER
I think the zerg are much more visually compelling than nids on any level. I really wish zerg werent called zerg because zerg is a big nerg name.
>>98617028Nah nigga. Starcraft designs are boring
>>98617039Would you prefer destiny instead?
Can I jsut say I actually like the weapon designs for votann
>>98617028I like the zerg designs tooI think the minis in this game are pretty cool but I also like nids too
>>98617052Honestly, Destiny DOES have enough variety in enemy factions, settings, especially if we look at concept art. If Pic was what the inside of a Votann AI Data Center is, I'd accept it.
>>98617056They’re alright I guess, no real head turners.
How much water do Men of Iron consume?
>>98617081yeah it sucks how once water is used to cool machinery it literally can never be used for anything else, it just vanishes into the void
>>98616776Ofcourshe
>>98617085Would be nice if it just vanishes, it turns into toxic sludge.
>>98617099Can we leave dacals mom out of this?>>98617066The zerg look cooler than the nids in my opinionSome nid models are gorgeous though, but the normal gaunts are kind of boring looking
>>98617028i like them both. zerg do a better job of having a weird variety of off the wall biomechanics and odd creatures.tyranids do a better job of xenomorph giger-esque psuedo mechanical biomech. their variety of shapes was historically worse than the zerg, but as of the latest refresh and expansion from last edition they seem to be taking notes from the zerg and expanding the visual library of the range into more than just gaunt shapes of various sizes. way more body patterns now
>>98617099>it turns into toxic sludgeno, it doesn't, retard
>>98617052
Where do Tyranids come from?
>>98617069I will die on the hill that Votann should have been Cosmonauts and 50s Soviet futurism as its design language, not Astronauts and 60s Western futurism.The Soviet aesthetic fits far more into the setting where the Western one feels too "clean and safe."Maybe someone in the design room said that doing it Soviet style would "be too similar to the Imperium;" they'd be right, but I still want Soviet dwarfs.
>>98617111>Where do Tyranids cum from?Fixed
So now that we have S5/T5 W2 baseline marines when is everyone else getting a statline update? It's kind of bs that all my guns and melee attacks do less than half of what they used to like 3 editions ago.Are we at the point yet where people actually lose faith in GW and prefer community patches?Why are my shuriken weapons so ass? Even striking scorpions don't do dick anymore t.t and I can't belive scatter lasers have been nerfed to wounding on 4s. It used to be 2s, then 3s and now 4s with 2 wounds a pop...baka
>>98617103Don’t start something you’re incapable of finishing.
>>98617052But Votann are already that.
>>98616818Blessed by Slaanesh, innit
>>98617115Take your pick.
>>98617113The Volus are the coolest depiction of space dwarves I’ve seen
>>98617113But anon, it's not politically correct to do that these days.
>>98617159They were too nerdy for me. I do wonder if they could suck dick though. At least without having to catch their breath every 10 seconds.
>>98617113Age of Wonders: Planetfall did this already
>>98617116Idk. Been too busy jerking it to femboys and watch lore vids on primarchs
>>98617159DING DONG BANNU
Leagues of Votann are for weenies, but I told a friend I would buy into 40k if squats ever came back and I don't like to break promises
>mfw some stupid as nigga un-ironically wants to play legends units in a game with melmao
>>98617176
>>98617116>Why are my shuriken weapons so ass?shuriken weapons were generally never doing anything anyways unless you had a lethals/devs or +wound combo going, neither of which are effected by shit going from t4 to t5. cannons arguably took a hit with some of the stuff moving to T6 though. scorpions are definitely relegated now purely to screens or clearing bulk chaff like gaunts, but thats not something eldar struggle with in the first place so its kinda hard to justify them outside of using them for their deployment options. banshee stonks went up up up thoughoverall i'd say eldars interaction with the T5 change is a wash, they're not really any worse off except in some fringe cases, and in a lot of other ways they bring even more value since they werent particularly concerned with toughness anyways
>>98617159The face vaguely reminds me of the Red Legion.
>>98617116>when is everyone else getting a statline update?We find out tomorrow.
>>98617116I want admech to go back to actually having superior versions of imperial weapons, they kinda forgot that was one of our minor gimmicks in particular lascannons being damage D3+3
Do you like macrostubbers?
>>98617170Based planetfall chad
>1000pts sisters>1000pts ig (vostroyan themed)should I get 1000pts dark angels or black templars as next project?
>>9861717040k is allowed to plagiarize ideas, every single bit of 40k is an amalgam of random pop culture bits from their time of creation mashed up and glued back together like a hamburger patty.Votann should be Space not!Soviets sent to mine a bunch of ice worlds in the galactic core (so their vehicles all have screw-drive instead of wheels and hover shit) before the DAoT. God I love screw-drive vehicles, they're so coolFuck you for these wheeled abominations, James
>>98616776I have a 4e metal farseer I have primed up, along with a squad of 3e Howling Banshees. It's unreal how good the metal Eldar sculpts were. Jes Goodwin is goated. Trying to pick up some metal Autarchs aswell.
>>98616777DA squad almost done, have some touch ups and a couple things to finish. No idea what to do with the guns though.I have a 4e metal farseer that's primed up but I'm going to have to plan an Iyanden color scheme for him.
>>98617188I sorta see it
>>98617285Not a fan of the faction but painted well nonetheless
I'm feeling orky today. Tell me about your ork experiences.
>>98617265>a squad of 3e Howling Banshees.Pure kino taste.
>>98617296I once saw a Stompa take half of someone's army when it exploded on death, funny shit i tell you (the ork player still lost the game tho)
>>98614128>biological male in the sororitasCall the Ordo Hereticus for that's a violation of the Decree Passive
>>98617241Get Black Templars because they actually feel like a knight-themed chapter. Dark Angels feel like a closeted gay man chapter
I think Jakhals look really cool along with World Eaters where one arm of theirs has no armor. It reminds me of gladiators, unless that's the point of their design?
Has there been any hints as to what GK could be getting besides a possible refresh? I don’t want to get my hopes up but I’m also surprised information has been quite scarce.
>>98617240Australian Aboriginals and uncontacted people have been recorded engaging in warfareThere are some archaeological proofs it might have happened before the agricultural revolution as well
>>98617312They're slave gladiators in 30k so that's why
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98617187>shuriken weapons were generally never doing anything anyways unless you had a lethals/devsYou must be new to not know shuriken weapons used to be rending at baseline and doom used to be easy to apply.
>>98617296>opponent blew up my battlewagon>deadly demised, was playing war horde so I careened it into a bunch of marines>his repex copped 6 mortals, was enough to destroy it>that also deadly demised, wiping out of a fuck tonne of stuff >all he had after that was a redemptor that came from strat reserves
Is the new Ork codex as bad as people say? A lot of players in my area are doomposting about it.
How do I screen against Deep Strike?
>>98617314>>98617307Please stop spilling nonsense over from the last thread
>>98617264But anon, Ukraine conflict means that's not politically in demand. Neither is Poland. Ukraine despises Poland.
>>98617337>orks far deadlier, lost their resilience >points cost went up substantially across the board, unless they made a character useless (painboy) then the costs were reducedThat's about it
>>986172653e banshee are the ones with the tall smooth masks before they did the 4e ones right? They're my favorite! Chris Fitzpatrick knocked it out of the park with them!
>>98617333No one tell them about save modifiers and sustained fire dice.
I wonder what would happen if a planet has exclusively squigs, no orks, no grots and no snotlings, just Squigs. Would they grow into their own ork klan?
>>98616777>>98616944Here are said aberrants, been in this state for a week now. Wouldn't take long to finish but just couldn't be fucked atm. I feel like the decal dude and his hellblasters right now, quite embarrassing
>>98617369They'd eventually spawn Orks because muh spores
>>98617265I cant remember if my farseer was 3rd or 4th edition, is it the one with the singing spear? The fucking thing broke a week after i got it too. Granted i was a kid and treated my models like shit it still pissed me off
>>9861673440k is the most curious game, the best and only winning move is not to play at all.
>>98617311I like the characters that black templars got, but what the fuck is up with the altar boys in their crusader squad?
How fun are Tyranids to build & paint for someone just into the hobby side of this? I can potentially get a good amount of them where I live from a seller but I don't know if I should just prioritize the ones I really want or the whole lot.
>>98617342You can only use deep strike if your unit would end up being more than 9 inches away from an enemy.To prevent it, you space your units so that there is no area that is large enough for the enemy's deepstrike unit to land.The easiest way to do it is to have a unit of infantry spaced to their maximum to get as much area covered by the 9" circle while still being close enough together to maintain coherency. 10-man squads are obviously better for this, cheap stuff like chaos cultists. This is more in reference to backline deepstrikes, if you're concerned about your front you shouldn't have to worry about it because you should have tanks/monsters to deal with them.>>98617346GW is a UK company after all and that entire island seems to have a stick up their ass about Russia like the 19th century Great Game is still going on.C'est la vie I guess
>>98617313Maybe. Not sure. I’ve been busy jerking off to femboy porn and watching this 40k lore vid on the Tau Empire
>>98617311They feel like loyalists world eaters.
Got a couple questions:>Why use generic units over named characters when characters usually give good effects?>Why use a Daemon Prince with wings when the jetpack gives your units buffs and shit?
>>98617375Pity, i hoped that shit would spawn a catachan 2.0 where everything is a squig and therefore, be deadly as fuck.
>>98617359Please don't remind me. :(And don't let the space marine players know, they'll lose their minds if they realize the bolter wasn't the best default infantry firearm of all time until they whined it into its current state.
>>98617387So how would I use Goremongers then? Only other unit I have with Infiltrators are Rangers but I mainly use them to pick off shit from behind the enemy.
>>98617394If everyone played with only winning in mind, more than half of you would take estrogen
Have they confirmed yet if all nobz are going up to 40mm bases or not? I'm building some kommandos right now and i'm not sure what base to give their nob.
>>98617028I think your taste is shit mate, but I won't object to someone fielding a hive fleet koprulu swarm with nid rules
>>98617221I think they're neat, if anything they just seem like a souped up version of a stubber with glowy bits.
>>98616820Is that yellow/gold guy from the fucking Executioners?
>>98617406Why are you using infiltrators to counter deep strike?The mid-field area that you'd be concerned about deep strike units landing on to crush your infiltrators SHOULD be screened on your first movement turn's advance out of your spawn by both the Infiltrators preexisting in the area and the rest of your army's advance. Deep strike can't be used on turn 1.You don't need 100% coverage, you just need enough coverage that his entire unit can't fit in the play area if he'd try to land there.
>>98617394In the modern age? No reason. Every Death Guard and Thousand Sons army I've ever seen has thrown a fucking primarch at me since the model was released.In the old days they were only available with opponents permission or used for scenarios. Then they were mostly for unlocking special army compositions, and now they're just another hq, sometimes mandatory in lists sometimes not.
>>98617111the last time gw gave a hard number of how many galaxies they've devoured, it's been a dozen, gw and the common man might be thinking about a dozen galaxies just like our own, but there are many galaxies that are way smaller and ours is surrounded by a number of those galaxiesso it's very much possible they come from andromeda, have consumed the dozen or so dwarf galaxies around the neighborhood and are just now trying to eat the biggest meal yet, the milky way but if you ask anyone else, they'll tell you this is an underwhelming story and they should be something as old as the universe itself and have devoured a silly number of galaxy clusters, if not the rest of the universe
>>98616776I'll be long in the cold, hard ground before I call them Hellbrutes.
>>98617428Guy on the lower right is DA, you can tell from the axe, its harder to see in the pic you're replying to.
>>98617394There is no reason, which is a fact I’m staring in the face with my sisters since GW has decided we’re not a real bolter faction and left us out of the bolter update in the incoming “T:5 is now standard” meta.
>>98616776
>>98617113>>98617264>>98617346>>98617387>inverse reality and outrigh lies>pretending that russian shit is still cool after being revealed as fake and weak least obvious ork))) shill
>>98616808That guy along with the Fat Patriarch is something that I've always wanted.But I refuse to pay the absurd price gringos are asking.Hoping for some STL of them.
>>986169073rd/4th are basically the same edition.There is little reason for using the 3rd edition rules when you have access to the 4th edition rule.In any case you'll end mixing and matching things from 3rd to 7th mostly because the rules do not change too much and everything is very compatible with each other.
>>98617106Wish they kept the ork body. Also the gun lacks the evident look of being its own thing.
>>98617448>sisters left out in the coldServes you right KEKW!Tbh most factions didn't get shit for this new T5 standard meta. Marine players are still too smooth brained to realize that being 50% of the armies in the game means they have to be the benchmark for average durability, standard target dummy, and what everyone evaluates fighting when determining whether the game is fun or not regardless of statline.
>>98617052votann are not destiny, stop pushing this shitty meme.
>>98617494Stop giving him attention if you want him to stopHe's been doing this for four years because he always gets (you)s
>>98617440These your boys? They look awesome
>>98617490I never understood the bitching of marinefag regarding the T4 W1 Sv3+ they had for ages.Everyone else was running with T3 W1 Sv5+ meaning most basic gun outside of lasgun was wounding on 3+ and ignoring armor since most had AP5But for some fucking reason ignoring most of the weapons AP and needing a 4+ or 5+ to be wounded was not enough.
>>98617498you're right, but sometimes the retard rage takes hold and forces me to reply to obvious bait.
>>98617502Yes, thank you. I only have about 1000pts worth painted and my camera only seems able to focus on a single infinitely small point of frame, so I'm still trying to get a picture of all of them that doesn't look like ass.

Is it true that most Chaos Space Marines are basically sealed into their Power Armor and can't take it off? Lorewise
>>98616777Repost from last night but im finishing up building my custodes army. I was planning on priming them today but it's raining ;[
>>98617445Whenever I see this print I can't help but think that's Nic Cage in the lower right.
>>98617505Because it’s the power fantasy faction and marine players never realize that people build lists by default to fight them so they always feel weaker than they think they should be.
>>98617534No, and yes.Most of them are not sealed inside their armor and can just take it off, but some of them definetly can no longer remove it due to the various "blessings" the chaos gods have given them.Though, they don't necesserarily need the gods to bless them either, they just need to hang around in the Warp for long enough.People seem to commonly forget but the Warp itself (not the daemons or gods of chaos) is HORRIBLY "corrosive" to everything and mutates and morphs anything that it comes into contact with. And that alone can afflict a mutation onto a chaos marine where it basically fuses his body and armor into one being.
>>98617518Yea dude these look amazing, really splendidly done.
>>98617548Wish marines went back to their true stat line.T3 as it should be.
>>98617294Ty anon!
>>98617581Nah, T4 should be the standard for marines/orks. T3 is for humans and knife-ears, T2 is for gretchin and familiars.
>>98617581>Space marines had high elf statlinesMy sides are in orbit anon

>>98617467Please stop hating Poland so much.
>>98617639Aren't genestealers in lore lethal enough that they're one of the reasons Marines enter Space Hulks with Terminator armour? Something about monomolecular, exotic material claws paired with extreme speed and agility?

>>98617648Supposed to be yes. But that doesn’t sell marine models.
This picture upsets anon.
>>98617650It might be the gundamfag trying to insist votann are gundam.
>>98617648Lore is raped, but yeah they need to threat the Marines and at T5 they don't. I hope with the codex they're going to reintroduce multiple weapon profiles, the upper two arms have larger rending claws.>>98616777My last painted model. I only have 5 more Acolytes left on the sprue, need to decide on how to build them. Have 5 Mining Tool ones, 5 hand flamers + icon, 2 hand flamer + 2 demo charges + icon, 10 metamorphs.With that I'll finish my pile of shame and no longer have a backlog. Got the Dawn of War box for some hobbying.
Astronauts
>>98617677Wrong gen, 76tard. That shit looks ugly as fuck btw
I have played enough Total War to think of Genestealers as equivalent to high-speed armor piercing units which hunt turtling armored units.
>>98617677
>>98617654>>98617674I mean, they're not supposed to be super durable either? T4 sounds about right. They should be S6 or better yet, anti-infantry 3.
>>98617650>>98617666I have no idea who the fuck either of those people are. votann are about as close to destiny as they are to gundam, which is not at all.
It's good to know 40k isn't a 24/7 endless repeated conflict between the same two factions like the Brotherhood of Steel and Enclave. No neglect of other factions including factions fans like more.
>>98617713>votann are about as close to destiny as they are to gundamThey're the exact same? And you've learned to use capital letters now. You learn fast.
Votznn should be more destint
>Destiny and Gundam are the sameI should've known all along but how could I have realized this before? Did they ever have any collabs or any Gundams named after Destiny characters?

No tech zombies in 40k besides necrons
Do you think cheese, tomatoes and bread still exist in 40k? Or some substitutes? What about spices? They should be able to synthesize those
>>98617775There's also these dudes
>>98617775>>98617781Every servitor is basically a tech zombie.
>>98617775Servitors

>>98617786So a 40k pizza is possible. Not so grim dark after all.
>>98617134I kind of whish gw stuck with the vaguely civilized style of nids, where the technology is obviously organic, but follows artificial design patterns; more Giger-esque biomechanical monsters and less starship trooper bugs. I know it's way more efficient to just design something around it's purpose a la artillery piece is big bug with a super sphincter, but I like the idea that tyranids could have started out as any other kind of alien in the galaxy (individualistic/sentient) that fell down the rabbit hole of biological optimization which in turn led to them becoming a runaway technorganic hivemind that completely overshadowed its ancestral civilization.They could have designed a line of standard bioforms that are augmented by symbiotic biotechnology. Like Hive Tyrants and Norn Emissaries aren't just really big tyranids, it's a slightly larger than average tyranid fused with a biological mecha. Exocrines aren't big gorillas with a gun in it's back, but a walking tank using a tyranid for it's brain.
>the zombies are technically still aliveAw man.
>>98617779I know Space Wolves have been shown to eat Fenrisian Mammoth beef among other alcoholic beverage made from a poisonous plant on Fenris.

>>98617081Do not sex the robots
>>98617792>the alive are technically zombies
>>98617746Every projectile is now calculated, so the computer can no longer just fire through it's own ranks willy-nilly, the projectile will collide and deal damage to the first physical object it hits, which in large groups means most bullets are going in a friendly's back. ca had the same problem going into warhammer fantasy, and they got around it by making everything have an arc, even if only a slight one. They didn't do this in 40k because it would look retarded and now they're back at square one: big groups are useless past the first two ranks.
>>98617825Their lore is central to the narrative of the Imperium but hey we all carry some shit opinions.
>the sex robots get fluids and salt from the sweat of those they screwInteresting premise
>>98617791I think much of your problem is semantics, tyranids still definitely look like they're wielding designed equipment when they're wielding their guns or swords.Even more so if you use an appropriate colour scheme that underlines the armor and gun apart from the warrior.

I like orks :D
Built a 13th company themed combat patrol for a thing at locals and fucking hate how the new Wulfen look like baboons if they were a race in World of Warcraft and after using Red Corsair bits on my Space Wolves i have enough body parts left along with some bits and a few 3d printed heads to make some proper Wulfen and i'm pretty pleased with how they turned out.Did we ever get a reason why they changed them so much?

>>98618148Nah, the whole aesthetic is horrible
>>98618121>that VNThe most unforgettable horror porn game I've ever played. No other game had a bunch of elementary schoolers gangbang a teenage girl against a wall. And the teenage girl loved it. No other game I've played had a 17 year old bishonen guy drink a 14 year old girl's piss and chase her down the hall to rape her, only to wind up getting anally raped by a 32 year old fat man. I still remember the scene where a 16-17 girl was hiding under a bed as her same age best friend was having sex with that same 32 year old fat guy on top. She heard every moan, bed shake and sound. In the wrong end she was discovered under the bed by her friend and made to join. A most terrifying scene was when an unwilling girl relives another girl's sex memories. The girl in the memory consented but the reliving girl didn't. It didn't matter that she was mentally screaming, her body in the memory did all the motions and actions as in history. It's like mind control rape except the victim was fully aware. Another scene the same girl and a friend were almost raped in a magic sex ritual, saved by the girl's older sister, and the backlash made the older sister want to rape her younger sister and friend.The loli in this pic is freakishly lewd and once disguised herself as a teenage girl, fucked a boy until he nearly came, transformed back saying>You thought you were having sex with a highschooler weren't you? I'm an elementary schooler all along!And leglocks that boy, forcing him to cum inside her unprotected, when he screams in fear upon learning this. This isn't even getting into the tentacles, the gay sex, the lesbian sex, the incest, the sequel's mother/daughter lesbian scene, etc. The first chapter alone contains lots of lesbian sex scenes with an unavoidable girl masturbating in the bathroom. Truly horror is intrinsically connected with sexuality.

So deep strike just lets you ingress into your opponent's deployment zone now? Seems a lot less useful older editions. I really didn't expect to just be able to keep anything in reserves and plop it into the midboard turn 2.

>>98618167All i had left in the bits. It was part of making a combat patrol themed on the 13th for a local painting/narrative deal and the Space Wolves CP is all primaris.Though fun fact combining them with a Red Corsair kit was more than enough HH era classic heads and beakies so swings and roundabouts i guess, primaris boots look shitty to me but overall they look the part considering their whole deal is taking bits of armour while on the move and using what they can steal.

Your commission artist (because c'mon son you can't tell us why all the basing looks different, we know it was commission work) relies far too heavily on nuln oil, and it makes everything take on this greasy, grimy look. This sort of shit was common like 10-20 years ago but we've all smartened up to the limitations of nuln oil by now, it's not magic gold particularly in this day and age of contrast paints and heaps of different washes and glazes.Let's then break down the surfaces on >>98616789 because they are all over the place.

>>98618236They are definitely a little bigger overall but bar the biggest dude where i had to use a bit of greenstuff to extend the stripey undersuit between the waist and upper leg of one chaos terminator leg they mix and match pretty easily since they are so boxy.
>>98618209never post that fuckass face ever again in my general. or else…
>>98618251Or else you'll send evil rapist grade schoolers after me? You'll never find me.
>>98618206I mostly played 4th/5th with one game of 8th. It seems silly to me I could just plonk a unit with flamers on the board to kill you off an objective. I get it's not really good for melee, but it seems really strong
>>98618241Let’s see your models you overly critical sack of shit
I'm convinced that the current decalfag is a false flagger and those replying to him are in on it. There's no way actual posters get baited into replying after this long.
>>98618265just like the destinyfag
>>98618264
>>98618264Go back and read the last sentence... 100 bucks please>>98618265Oh no but supposedly my theory that the mutie is a shitposter is batshit kookoo
>>98618265
>>98618246Haha, imagine being raped by a grade schooler. Wouldn't that be so scary and terrifying haha. The worst part is no one would believe you haha.
They only got rid of the 13th company because the new GW CEO is staunchly against kitbashing and i am not joking.
>>98618265You'd be wrong, he posted timestamps several times since his return
>>98618269Passing off this feminist and mentally frail anons models as your own is shockingly pathetic.
>>98618281It's so cute watching you invent narratives for why modelers infinitely better than you are sekritly bad lmao
>>98618276>staunchly against kitbashing>but requires you to kitbash to get tournament-legal configurations on multiple unitsI really wish GW were more "put together" as a company so I didn't have to argue with wysiwyg autists on why my Sisters heavy flamer with meltagun barrels is actually a multi-melta, but here we are.
>>98618287His models are very nice and he takes his time but that doesn’t change the fact that he’s a total freak
>>98616716Has there been a collage of an entire unit?
>>98618287notice how he’s never even tried that with pic related.
@98618296>Not pretending your sloppa is better than his modelsThis is a fake decalfag, stop replying to him>>98618306No he has
These aren't my minis but I post them anyway.
>>98618260For melee you can use Rapid Ingress strategem to set them up in a safe place, then move and get an easy charge. Otherwise you need to roll a 9+ on your charge, not easy at all.
>>98618307I don’t want your replies dumbass >>98618306This is just a shit diorama because it’s completely implausible
>>98618291RETVRN
>>98618326I miss these sorts of articles so much bros... Being able to spend an afternoon on GW website trawling through kino like this, rip in peaces
>>98618308tacticool marines pmo. why the fuck did you decide to choose the huge fuck off space knight to be wearing camo, and sneaking about like some sissy. play guard if you want military autism, or even blood axe orks because at least then its interesting/funny to see big brutes move eerily quiet.
>>98618291>staunchly against kitbashingExcept they keep putting out videos and articles on kitbashes you can do you fucking retard
>>98618336>tourist has never heard of scalpel and hammer
>>98618341Anon, read the post I'm replying to, and then read mine again.I'm pointing out that they literally REQUIRE it for some units.However, I can also see the anti-kitbash approach that GW appears to take the rest of the time because of the varying degrees of wysiwyg both in tourneys and the playerbase they've cultivated and the removal of options in favor of a "streamlined" product line. This is why I said I wished they were more "put together," so that the ENTIRE company were all on the same page, either it's all-in "yes" or all-in "no" instead of this middle ground we're in right now where "sometimes yes, sometimes no" is the answer.Reading comprehension.
>>98618317True, but that seems a bit more situational. Not as easy as drop and spray.
>>98618358I understood what you meant anon, that other guy is just being a bit slow/obtuse.>instead of this middle ground we're in right now where "sometimes yes, sometimes no"It's been like this for some time, since midhammer. Whenever they went to the new website the company as a whole can't decide whether they want to encourage kitbashing, or restrict unit options so that there's no reason to kitbash... It is all so very tiring, yes. Sometimes I wish GW/Warhammer wasn't as big a company/IP as it is so that there'd be a more cohesive direction with things like this.
>>98618333nigga thats from a £3.99 codex in 2003.
Is kitbashing good or bad for revenue? Given you need to buy multiple kits.
>>98618381Okay? That disproves what I said how? Reading comprehension real low itt atm
>>98618319I dunno, seems like a pretty small pile of wolf corpses for one Marine
>>98618306Purple anon painted that the very last day of the yiff collage, all in one sitting by the way. Meanwhile someone has had a year but with nothing to show for it.
I'm about to prime in Grey, is grey a shit primer?
Me giving the Destinygundamfag attention
>>98618404Gray is fineAll primer colors are *fine*, some just require a bit more work to do certain things.Gray works wonders as a good middle-ground IME, doesn't make skin look sickly and doesn't require absurd amount of layering to cover up with lighter colors like a black primer would.
>>98618382I mean, most of us kit bash with our extensive collection of leftover bits from other kits. I would think it's relatively rare for people to go by new kits just for kit bashing.
>>98618404The only bad primers are corax white and mephiston red everything else is fine but a brighter one makes more translucent colours like red take more coats.
>>98618412I shit you not i hear younger people who got into the games from Hasbro shit going "i dont agree with kitbashing or 3d printing bits, its too close to piracy or cheating for me" and i hate how pro corpo people have become about fucking hobbies that when you get right down to it are just arts and crafts.
What are the human components on a Servitor even doing? I know the Admech say "FLESH IS WEAK!!!" but if that is the case, why are they still using flesh to some extent?
>>98618382You can just use leftover bits. I had 3 Magus models thanks to Combat Patrol boxes so I'm running one as a Benefictus with some extra bits and head-swap. I had some random neophytes as part of Goliath's crew, I gave them bombs from the acolytes/neophytes sprue so they're no Reductus Saboteurs. Saboteur alone goes for 33 euro for some reason so fuck that.I'm thinking of expanding my Aberrant collection, I already have the bits so instead of getting 5 Aberrants I'll grab a box of 10 Goliath Gang from Necromunda and run them as aberrants, effectively at a 50% discount points wisetl;dr it entire depends on what you're doing, it can save you a lot of money
>>98618427>man invents scenario to get mad at
>>98618179And then the reverse happens >You thought I was underage? I lied! I'm legally an adult!And then they scream because they're NOT having sex with an underage child.
>>98618428AI is banned because Butterian Jihad against thinking Men of Iron. Thus underneath it needs to be a human brain and not robot. So very cybernetic cyborg rather than wholesale robot unless you're Tau or Votann.
>>98618404Primer is primer, it gets covered by layers of paint. You can prime black for a bright coloured mini, it'll just take more time and layers to achieve that brightness. The colour really only matters in helping you achieve a solid base layer quicker, ie. are you painting your dudes grey as their primary colour? Or for coverage ie. priming black so you don't get a spot of light colour in any recesses. Personally I like to prime white and do a quick nasty black wash to get the recesses, or prime black and do a zenithal of lighter colour
>>98618428Lets them pretend they aren't making men of iron.
>>98618432>inventsNTA but I know two people who are 40+ get mad at people using 3d printed terrain and refuse to play with anything 3d printed. One even got mad at someone in his own playgroup for buying a 3d printer and started printing terrain. I'll never understand the logic, they've spent a fortune on GW terrain and its their right but getting mad at people who get functional equivalent of the stuff for dirt cheap is beyond me. Maybe makes them feel bad I don't know.
>>98618432I straight up heard someone say this to my face two days ago.
>>98618432Nigger I've seen nerds freak about the stupidest shit, I believe him
>>98618450stop ban evading pedophile
>>98618432Mate you wish it was a fake scenario because thats a better world than this. There are corporate bootlickers that see any kitbashing the same way they do theft or self repairing electronics its insane
>>98616725it says in the book they fight and dragon knights/squires are willing to lose their lives in tribal battles seizing wealth (DINOS) from the other tribes.
I hope Librarius survives into the Codex. I want to build an Angels of Vengeance list using Librarius + Bastion Task Force and use bricks of terminators and infantry led by Librarians.
>>98617184Legends is better than main in 40k too.
>>98618451Why am I catching strays? Whatsoever about that post seemed like I was the mutie? Cool your fucking jets, stop trying to rile him up
>>98618428They basically drive the mechanical bits. People are hella cheap to them.
>>98616777>What's your plans for this month's collage?Either painting a dakkarig bright 1980s eyerape Freebooterz colors or getting a Squat on ebay and setting him up so he's shooting a primaris with his heavy weapon (or recreate the 'squat last stand' scene but without the land train since they don't exist).I thought of something more expensive like grabbing AK swamp gel and building a mini diorama of Catachans (I would have to get catachans) attacked by 2004 cold ones (which I do have) along a swampy riverbank. I thought of lizardmen with guns or plague monks without faces counting as Hrud but every Ebay listing for Used Old lizardmen to run as Space Slanni (3rd edition necron codex) is, of course, overpriced for what it is. As always.
>>98616777or just nothing at all if this job I have to go out of state for 2 months ever gets back to me.>temp job>work there for 2 months>guy can't move his ass to respond
>>98616938
>>98618494I like those old freebooters. They dont really fit in with my guys but I'll have to get a few to use as flash gitz at some point. Some of the few ork things from that time I have nothing of.
>>98617113>>98617170Votann should have just been Old Squats but upgraded and then all the other stuff they had as Squats+The Hearthkyn do not work as basic infantry. GW has this obsession with trying to make space marines 2, 3 and 4. Just give people what they want. Use the term Squat. Use the term exo-armour.
>>98618507What current model for you faction do you like the least? How would you improve it in a refresh?
I hope marines get new fliers along with the codex
>>98618555When was the last time GW actually released a new flyer? I thought they haven't done that in a very long time.
>>98618507>GW has this obsession with trying to make space marines 2, 3 and 4.>Just give people what they want.The only way GW knows "what people want" is sales numbers. Marines sell well, ergo they try to make everything else as similar as possible to try and strike gold (monetarily) again. Do I agree with it? No, but that's how it looks on the surface to me.You also have to remember that GW is extremely risk-averse, and the fact that the original squats flopped so hard that their name became the in-group slang term for something going away, despite this removal happening before most 40k players were even alive to be aware of it; I hope I don't have to explain why these two things are related.How much of the Squats being unpopular originally is down to their original "archetypal fantasy" being too similar to other factions (ie Orks for "space bikers") is not something I can speak on, but I can't imagine it not having an affect.I'll rephrase how I described Votann a few threads ago: they feel like they were designed by committee with too many "ideas guys" in the room so they're trying to do 5 different things at once and it doesn't work as a result. They also still don't have a complete range of models.I just don't know if GW is willing to throw out space dwarfs a second time and try it again, so instead I wish for what could have been.
>>98618557I was hoping they would make primaris scaled replacements since there's a gap now
>>98618560>The only way GW knows "what people want" is sales numbers. Marines sell well, ergo they try to make everything else as similar as possible to try and strike gold (monetarily) again. Do I agree with it? No, but that's how it looks on the surface to me.Look I'm not gonna have a 50 post argument with you, this is the reply you get, no one wants knockoff marines, the marine fanbase isn't buying SHORT not-marines, your logic is why votann are a meme niche army with no focus.
I really like the space marine hover tanks but I don't wanna be a basic bitch and play space marines. Maybe I should proxy them as chaos land raiders / predators.
>>98618600You aren't even arguing with the point of mine that you quoted; I don't know why you think I'd have an argument with you if you aren't showing me that you are even going to engage with what I say in the first place.
>>98618604What is it that you like about them? I was ideally going to get a predator and they got killed a week after I got a second hand repulsor
>>98618464That image is a shit example because star wars legends had a shit load of retarded fan canon slop worse than primaris marines such as the sun crusher and yuuzhan vong, lucas also never actually cared for any of the EU books. He just gave it his approval because "it was for the fans" as he stated in an interview once.Your still right about 40k though
>>98618600You're pretty short-sighted/blinkered anon... Plenty of die-hard dorf fanboys out there that will just consume anything dorf-like, and then they did also make them as marine-liteas possible because sales figures. Votann were a safe business decision from GW
>>98618604Troll post. No one likes hoverslop
>>98618600They'd be fine as knockoff marines if they at least had more runes & dwarfy aesthetics.
>>98618604>hover tankswhat hover tanks?
>>98618555>*monkey’s paw curls*
>>98618507>imperium lite
>>98618683Are these any different from the real ones?
>>98618651It's just a cool sci fi tank. The ones in Halo and Star Wars and Ratchet & Clank are cool too.>>98618670Idk what you're implying here>>98618664Suck my dick
>>98618657>sun crusher and yuuzhan vongBut those were good parts. The Sun Crusher was a one-off weapon that replies on the star's own mechanics and is vulnerable enough that a glancing blow from a prototype Death Star could heavily damage it. It was a highly situational weapon depicted as deadly but uncontrollable. The Vong are also much better as an original threat than anything in Mouse Wars.
>>98618693>Suck my dickEw, no. I'm not a Space Wolf player
>tfw the Squats who we know have the most STCs and are Space Dwarfs have basic infantry that have advanced power armor or weapons>tfw an ancient advanced high tech civilization doesn't ride dinosaurs or have thornbeasts and bamboo armor
>>98618693>what are you trying to imply?“hover” tanks don’t actually hover. they instead move via a metal cylinder on the bottom of the tank going up and down like a pogo stick. you can look at the bottom of the tank in the image I posted if you don’t believe me.
>>98618657The Vong were great. They are a remainder that there is worst things lurking in the universe than the eternal conflict between Jedi and Sith. Vong are thematically more similar to Tyranids or Zerg while being asshurt over technology.
>>98618698Nigga the death star was a planet killing weapon so unusual and unreal that the rebels thought it was a planet at first and some starship near the size of an x wing casually takes a hit from its laser and has bombs that can obliterate stars destroying entire solar systems. The vong were basically just a mary sue enemy almost equal to how much chaos is wanked off in 40k that retconned palpatine and the empire by making the death star and other projects of his into weapons to fight them.Not a single bit of that even remotely fits with the aesthetic and world of the first 6 movies.
>>98618698>vulnerable enough that a glancing blow from a prototype Death Star could heavily damage it>the fact it can be “damaged” by a planet destroying weapon that was meant as the pinnacle of the empire’s power is meant to be a weaknesswhat
>>98618735>vong were basically just a mary sue enemyWhat
>vong>Mary sue
>>98618735>Nigga the death star was a planet killing weapon so unusual and unreal that the rebels thought it was a planet at first>That small moon over there OH WAIT I MEAN PLANET OH FUCK I DIDN'T MEAN SMALL MOON oh wait it's a space station
>>98618736Nta but the missiles were special enough and made stars implode. The special sauce is less the tank and more the tank cannon and shells. Weird I know it's too real life
>>98618735Anon sounds like he read from a wiki article because almost all of that is inaccurate or straight up wrong.>planetSmall moon>casuallyNearly dies>VongTurns out to be nowhere as big a threat and their tactics are suicidal.
>>98618735PT made may stylistic changes from OT you know

>>98618735In the old EU, planetary bombardment can Exterminatus or close. But planets have shields that can deflect. Alderaan had high tier shields. The Death Star wasn't just destroying, it was saying nothing can save you.
How many unsold boxes of Armageddon does your local LGS or GW store have? Mine has has over 40 boxes still.
Ah, you were at my side all along. My true mentor. My guiding planetlight.
I still want my cavemen
40k needs an epic clash between the Death Star prototype and the Sun Crusher that resulted in both of them getting their asses kicked by a black hole cluster.
>>98616776My Battle Sisters are 100% metal aside from new units that were never originally released in metal. And my Grey Knights are like 50% metal.
>>98618766OT implicitly had too. The Hoth shield could deflect any attack from multiple Star Destroyers. In the EU that was a rickety not top-of-the-line shield and could manage that.
>>98617922I need to work on my pile of shame. My metaI sisters army I only have 2 out of 5 canonesses painted, hospitaller and celestine are just primed. And I got like 60 infantry painted but I think I have like 30 infantry still left. Plus my 10 Rhino based vehicles are just basecoated and nothing more. And my two metal pengines are also unpainted.Really nice work on that celestine.
>>98618735Sun Crusher flat out can't kill the Death Star at all, the big scary sun-killing torpedoes only do about 11% damage at best, and getting hit by just the fringe of the beam fucked it up.Death Star >>> Sun CrusherBeing tiny is about all the Sun Crusher has going for it, even before you account for how if the Death Star had actually been a prototype and not a skeleton fusion core + superlaser they could just tractor it in place and smack it with the superlaser head on.
