1. Old Ones literally engineered Orks as bioweapons to fight the Necrons/C'tan during the War in Heaven.
2. Eldar. Both are ancient, near-immortal empires from the galaxy's "elder races" era — but they took opposite paths. Necrons purged their souls entirely, trading spirit for deathless machine bodies. Eldar are almost nothing but soul — fragile, psychic, haunted by having lost so many of their own to S. Necron "magic" is mastery through cold science; Eldar power is desperate, spiritual, and slipping away. Same age, opposite relationship to death.

And strong minds. Remember when Angron forcibly converted a whole crusade fleet and everyone onboard into khornate berserkers. Even but custodes/SoS turned, the strong faithful minds of guardsmen, sister of battle and astartes doesn't actually save you.
Chaos can just FORCE you to become chaotic if you draw the gods direct attention if you're not a blank (or have plot armour like custards).
Weak minds, faithful minds, strong minds, atheist minds all can be made to fall to chaos.

1. They aren't holding the line. The imperium is decaying and slowly losing the battle.
2. The only reason they find themselves in a position where the only thing they can do is be more and more extreme position is that they started out an unimaginably cruel regime that bisects your skull and wires your brain into a cooling system.

So I got a question for /40kg/, are admech bros allowed to use a skorpius without the stubber gunner skitarii? Because please understand, we are the most expensive army, and a model is a model. Those gunners can be easily converted into 20% of another Skitarii battle line unit. And also I feel like removing unrelated Skitarii from the transport bay enhances the WYSIWYG of it. I do intend to add in extra greebling and wires to imply the side stubbers are remotely controlled from within the enclosed rear section

>>98663872
You play some games without them seeing what other units fill the "I used to use wave serpents/fire prisms" role in your play style. At the end of the day, it's how you feel most comfortable playing an army that will make most sense to you. Lykhis and some warp spiders can help make other models get through toughness. Shroud Runners obviously strip cover helping units hit. Your deployment/movement/positioning will determine if your non-transported flimsy wet-noodle units are going to die or not. Wave serpents are basically just toughness/wound supplements for our aspect warriors, so try to move such that you can save the points on a wave serpent. Analyze how much your fire prisms were really doing for you and see if another unit could have filled that role just the same.

Try things. Discover what you were gaining from those two vehicles and find alternatives. We don't see how you play with a question like this. We can only give you general advice or "in optimal play, these units are better than others"

What if it was the Emperor's plan all along? He wants to Imperialize Chaos and transform Chaos into nothing more than another flavor of Imperium and especially Space Marines.

The Emperor is a warp god at this point, "living saints" are just the Emperor's daemon princes.
They even get "banished" like daemon princes who then have to recoup themselves in the Warp before they can enter the physical realm, real space, again.
And we know this just from Saint Celestine herself.
Everytime she dies she gets thrown back into the Warp where she then has to climb a mountain of her own corpses to be able to resurrecr and enter real space again.

Obviously not, for two reasons
1- the overwhelming majority of T'au color schemes are actually CAMOUFLAGE meaning you're gonna need some red suits no matter which sept you're from, in case you get deployed on a red landscape

2- Certain specific ranks (such as Etheral retinue, or Supreme Commander, as was Farsight's case) require that you use your Sept color as your main color, instead of using it for markings.
This is why Shadowsun's armor is white, for example. White is the color of T'au. Farsight's armor is red because it's the color of Vior'La (and I think there's also other specific reasons)

Therefore if your sept color is red, and you're part of an ethereal's retinue or some other super-special elite formation where stealth doesn't matter, you're gonna have a red battlesuit.

I've read some very conflicting information from a variety of sources, so I figured it would be better to get it straight from the people who think they know best.

During the Horus Heresy, did the Eldar exist as we know them in 40K?
Did the various Aspects exist as well?
I want to make a unit that features one of each (and a Ranger for flavour) but remove anything that identifies them as being from the Aspect if possible, I figure the easiest way to achieve this is to remove the iconic helmets and trim off any identifying runes.

Eldrad appears a couple times along Exarchs, Dark Avengers and Banshees (not sure about the others).
Wraithlords, Wraithguards, Harlequins and Dark Eldar raiders are also featured.

IMO, they're dissapointingly close to their 40k versions, and GW missed the change to make 30k eldar more distinct, considering the that the Fall only happened 200-300 years before the HH.

You have a very Star Trek/reddit understanding of things.
The imperium cannot be replaced with anything else. A galactic civil war would be like how the byzantine empire repeatedly fucked itself with civil wars leading to manzikert and then later the civil war of the 1340s that destroyed imperial capabilities to invade anatolia and defeat the beyliks like the ottomans before they could organize into a new sultanate and invade europe (and of course also invited turks into europe, defeating the point of their naval advantage).

All tau are on the negative side of the "psychic scale" they are all psy inert. So any of them accidentaly birthing a psyker is never happening.

Also never happening because tau basically have no warp signature meaning daemons have no interest in them.
Also AI as a whole are soulless meaning they have no warp signature either so daemons can't see let alone interact with them.

My argument is that the imperium can't be replaced, this is the best system, it's star trek/reddit mentality to be like "what if they all became a happy democracy" or some shit. You are at manzikert, you are at the collapse of the empire when the enemy is coming from all sides.

And anyone posting "tau good" is like those kinds of tards that are like "norway good" ignoring that norway only has 5.3 million people and is a petrostate with a national wealth fund and cannot ever be the same as america.

>>98666038
nta but in the real world example, the empire (the byzantine’s) was conquered and replaced with another empire which was more or less the same, and still kept up basic law and governed its empire to at least ensure its citizens lived to pay taxes.
in 40K, the empire (the imperium) will be replaced by an empire that either has no concept of basic law or governance at best, and worst wants all human life destroyed.

And sisters of silence aren't? They are just a lazy Black Library creation that GW inserted into the tabletop to try have SoB equivelant in a time where they never existed and they did it for pandering and money. And then spectacularly failed at it because literally nobody liked them.
And we know this is true because they used to have their own codex, and it sold so fucking poorly that GW just gave up and shoved them into the custodes in an attempt to make them sell. It didn't work either.
>They fucked up the Custodes lore

>male-only
They only detailed that custards are made out of male noble heirs. It had nothing to do with the creation process, which we already know is just fucking magic anyway because it uses psychic biomancy in it and DAOT gene tech (might as well be magic too)

Space marines are different because for them specifically it has been pointed out that space marine creation process is incompatible with the human female genetics. Custodes have never had this be part of their fluff it just says they use male heirs.

Ashen claws are the part of raven guard who were savages and criminals and raven guy hated them for being slavers and shit so he sent them on their own mission and then they became rad pirate renegades and the night lords kind of sucked and were broken into a bunch of retarded warbands to prey on random worlds.

>are the NLs just a really shitty legion
Yes they were.
At some point their recruitment was subverted and they became a legion of street trash criminals with few outliers (like Sevatar).

So even if they had the same gear and augmentations as other marines, they were psychologically more of a criminal gang than a real Legion, which all that means.

Since they were broken by the DA, and Curze died, they became just opportunistic and cowardly raiders. And when sometimes one of them got delusions of grandeur, they got curbstomped by real warriors (Raldoron, Jain Zar)

Btw, all the above doesn't mean they're lame. Far from it. They're great saturday morning cartoons villains and schizo maniac killers.

Not true. Several of the writers have said that writing CSM is both easier and more interesting to them. They get to explore those broken monsters and their individuals, while loyalists are supposed to be more one note and boring.

Their job is to punish any serious rebellions of conquered worlds.

They are unchanged from 30k to 40k, they're still operate just as the Emperor wanted them to, BL writers don't really understand why a state would use a terror organisation and so don't know what to do with them so they get beat on by other factions they're more interested in

The three great noble families in charge of Commoragh before Vect were into slaves and pleasure Cults even before the fall and just learned they needed to double down on the slaves and torture to sustain themselves after the Soul Tithe started to affect them. The Dark Eldar structure was a bunch of loose independent coalitions raiding to take slaves to sell to the great houses before Vect took over and started the Kabal system where the raiders were the actual ruling class. Arena Gladiator Cults and Haemonculi Covens were both pre-fall organizations that persisted and just changed their focus over time.

Similar but different. The fall would be a recent memory for most of them, the path system and infinity circuit was new. They'd have to struggle for resources even more than they do in 40k.
Just after the fall Biel-tan and Iyanden went on a joint crusade to reclaim the empire and kill all of chaos, they didn't stop until iyanden was fucked by nids. Ulthwe was in contact with the imperium and scheming thanks to Eldrad

>Did the various Aspects exist as well?
The original aspects were avengers, banshees, dragons, reapers and hawks (3rd edition craftworld codex), also recommend the asurmen and jain zar novels, they're set in 30k and covers the history of the aspects.
For models, they'd be less standardized, practice vary between shrines. You could color and kitbash them to look more individual. The phoenix lords would have also been way more active

WTF are you talking about? None of that happens in 30k.
CWE were scattered and mostly hiding from the Imperium, which destroyed several craftworlds during the Great Crusade.
Eldrad tried to stop the HH, but since all farseers are shortsighted, he chose an already corrupted Fulgrim to deliver his message in the most stupid way possible. He also had no idea that knowledge about the Chaos Gods and the warp was supressed in the Imperium.

If they REALLY wanted to keep DA OLD LORR, they could make a dual-kit that lets you build either nid-tainted Zoats that can be taken as allies with nids and maybe GSC or regular zoats that have managed to escape the nids.

That said, I dunno how keen I am on the idea of an army of xenostodes. On one hand low model elite armies almost always turn out bad when GW tries to balance them, on the other hand having a xenos option for that playstyle for those that like it would be nice.

Makes as much sense as Custodes armies and they actually have a good reason to be out and about all across the galaxy than custodes. If even Exodites have an excuse to get off their maiden worlds than you can make up excuses for Zoats mysteriously appearing and doing some bullshit.

Turn 1 ingress just feels like a trap choice that might be useful 1 game in 10 in practice. I use a lot of reserves and almost always put most of them down turn 3.

Soooo do the Winds of Magic exist in 40k? BUt being 40k everythings so fucked people can only draw from all the winds at once as Dharr and not the seperate winds like in fantasy?
>>
>>98666611
Nothing of that is related to 30k, anon

I'm building an initial list to start an army, I have no play experience with Eldar, not even TTS.
>that will make most sense to you
That's tank spam, I'm a guard player. I'm trying to explicitly avoid building a "what comes naturally" list because I want a *different* play experience to my guard, so I asked for someone else to give input because someone who isn't me would have a different perspective on what units do what roles and wouldn't just default to bringing another tank.

I like the idea of seer council psyker meme shit like teleporting fire dragons right on top of an enemy tank, but I don't know what would be a good starting point beyond "bring a bunch of Farseers and Warlocks to make that happen." As I said, my natural inclination is to bring tanks because that's how you play guard, and I want to avoid doing that with my Eldar.

No that we know. But maybe there's cults or planets somewhere that believe in that.

Not that they will be right. In 40k that stuff is what the chaos gods use to lure fools, even if it takes millenia (Just ask the Thousand Sons)

No, it says "for thousands of years" and mentions the Nids (that didn't arrive until M40-41)
The fall, the GC and the HH happened in a period of little more than 2-300 years
>>
>>98666612
no
the winds of magic are a unique feature of the warhammer world due to the way the polar warp gates were made and then partially unmade in a very specific way
people in 40k don't draw dhar either, dhar is a mixture of magics but magic in its unseparated form isn't dhar by standard
they also aren't drawing high magic either, high magic is the winds in concert, so once again a different thing

people in 40k would be drawing on the kind of magic that existed on the warhammer world before the gates and their collapse, which was rarer and harder to see and grasp, even for elves

This. It's so Destiny it hurts. It looks like it was designed to attract gullible, sunken-cost abused housewives with fakey nostalgia about how the company used to be better when they were just as abusive in the past, and the whole time still buy product.

That's the good part. I suggest improving Votann by making extra Destiny.

Eat at a local restaurant tonight. Get the cream sauce. Have a cold pint at 4 o’clock in a mostly empty bar. Go somewhere you’ve never been. Listen to someone you think may have nothing in common with you. Order the steak rare. Eat an oyster. Have a Negroni. Have two. Be open to a world where you may not understand or agree with the person next to you, but have a drink with them anyways. Eat slowly. Tip your server. Check in on your friends. Check in on yourself. Enjoy the ride.

it really bothers me that 40k is a british creation, I despise the English on a deep and profound level, mostly because they're all cucks from a cuck island that's full of cucks

I agree, they should be discontinued and all the funds and assets gone to a newer, better faction

Anyone ever use the Vallejo acrylic-polyurethane surface primers that come in the little bottles? Supposedly for okay for brushing? I have some metal models that I had to clean up a bit after primer once the defects were visible and I really just want to spot prime those bare spots without breaking out the rattle can again. worried about putting too much down and muffling details.

Also, how are the citadel spray primers, specifically white? Compared to Vallejo one? Thats the only two my lgs has in stock today. . .
