Perhaps unsurprising but turns out whoever assembled this iconic one took some freedom with the bits with a bunch of greenstuff to perfect his pose, if you just follow the original sculpt of each bits into one another it does not look as cool.

>>98794867floor lights like he's at a disco-tec
>>98794867Sensational, nice job Knightchad. Base it with a Marine underneath walking together. I kept mine pretty simple but with enough room to add some stuff later if I want to.
>6.75 for tone pro>it's the same size as their normal, already overpriced paints at 12 mlNot only do I not have any desire to get these paints, any desire to buy a set of 5 to test out dies when you tell me how expensive they are. Why does this company seem to be a paragon of stupid mbas like mcdonalds who keep jacking up prices during an economy that keeps getting worse.I'm not gonna shill warhammer to any of the autists I know, especially the women, because of this shit.

what even happened to aun'shi anyway? you don't hear about him like, at all?
>>98794946They look great and anyone who gets to face them in battle should count themselves lucky!
>>98794863Only one so far, his name is Warboss Mordredd-Morgutz because I’ve been listening to The Once and Future King, and I’ve decided to make one klan of /mydudes/ to be like the House of Orkney, and they like to go on cool quests to make up reasons as to why they’re fighting, I’ll be making a second Boss for them soon, and he’ll be called Akrafang
I hope they do something like Shadow War Armageddon again, but that might be a monkey's paw.
>>98794968i liek orkz :D
>>98794959He's on his way to reclaim th Farsight Enclaves with the rest of Vior'la, so if GW ever bothers to do anything with Tau civil war narrative, he'll be back then with a new mini. (plot twist- it will never happen)
>>98794911Too bad, literal millions of gw drones will buy these overpriced paints anyway because gw paid influencers to pretend they're the second coming of christ. Remember those videos where people slapped super thick coats and it magically shrunk to give perfect coverage? Those alone were enough to convince people that these paints will magically make them better painters.
I know britain is an industrial wasteland but this might be a little too far into basic lack of knowledgeThis story also describes their digestive system as breaking down organics into pure energy, which is presented as something out of the ordinary

I like orks :D
>>98795039They shit through their pores or vomit it up like owls, actually
https://desuarchive.org/tg/thread/98735620/#98737340
>>98795044many are saying this
>>98795038Why? Custodes will get worse with the codex. Their stats go up but their model count goes way way down
>>98795049imagine the smell
>>98795063I'm not sure how this part meshes with the "hunters" bit considering smelling like shit makes you kind of easily noticed but maybe they just smell like the shit of whatever native animals they've been chomping on
>>98795061I don't think so, I think they'll just have a much lower floor and a higher ceiling. Too many people will just yolo them when they shouldn't into things that actually can kill them and lose half their army in a single activation.
Im about 25 models inI guess this brush is used up?
>>98795084I'm of the opposite mindset where they are way too over costed and most armies can easily out score them on objectives and pick them off with shooting
>>98795086>that bristle abusethe absolute fucking state of you
I wish models were even more expensive.
>>98795086>everything fucked up>except the perfectly good tipI call bullshit
Post your WIP models RIGHT NOW.Need to shade the armour a bit I think on these girls and then move onto the details. Cloth will stay black with a white stripe. Swords probably some teal color, no fucking clue what hair color yet.

When will they finally nerf Marines?>humble Nids player>open with a simple 9pool, PBU the drones>scout with 6 of my lings and kill their techmarine>lose like 20 of my barbgaunts against some bikes and mines>manage to build gargoyles and stack them with my overlord to win
>>98794863Yes, but I dont have much lore for them.
>>98795136Pulled the boys out to get back to work and get my mojo rekindled.
>>98795155>which tonk?>every tonk
>>98794849It's all so tiresome.
>>98794917>ProAcrylI kinda like Vallejo or Duncan's paints more.
>>98795110>I wish models were even more expensiveSame, but only to the point where you can no longer afford them.
>>98794946God GW fucking knocked it out of the park with the Destrier. Looks great anon
>>98795149You will be very fun to fight, in which I mean you’ll be an easy win.
>>98795183TTC is just overpriced for the quality
>>98795182It’s good to remember most of the workers hate it too but are forced to use this type of language by superiors who are under threat of boycott by major investment firms if they don’t capitulate. One day we will set the world right again.
>>98795182Xir. You're making a scene. I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to pick up your manbag and leave. You will not be missed.
>>98795182Probably forced by corprate
>>98795169But you won?
one planet from one tau sept could take out an entire marine chapter
>>98795205The Tau are weak and totally irrelevant to the setting.
>>98795136Give me a minute. Im still waking up
>>98795189Holy shit. This is one of the most positive and uplifting things I've seen posted here in years.Thank you, anon. I hope something good happens to you today.
>>98795207This is the appeal of Tau, Eldar, Dark Eldar and Votann. You just do your own thing.
>>98795205That's nice, dear.
>>98795207>The Tau are weak and totally irrelevant to the setting.Just because they are ghey doesn't mean they are weak. You're not being fair.
>>98795086You gotta get brush soap.
>>98795204Only through my superior speed and skill but the infidel Marine players just do mines + bikes, Firebat/Apo/Marine push or the classic Siege Land Raider tech and they fraud themselves to win.
>>98794911The paints look good but the price point and shit quality pots will probably keep me away from most of them. It's just malicious incompetence at this point.
I will buy Pro White and Yellow. No reason for me to use any other colors from the line
>>98795182Looks like a man to me.
>>98795221Its fair because marine players are retards. If they werent OP they'd lose every gamd.
>>98795233I bet it will be written so you can't tell if it's a man or a woman.
>>98795231I will buy Pro Yellow. Looking forward to painting some cool eldar.

Big sisters of battle
I hate 10 man terminator bricks so much it's unreal.
>>98795155How many do I need? I thought my other armored vehicles could support. Tonk would be for heavy targets, hippogriff for medium/groups, and transports/basalisk for the rest.
>>98795239That's unironically on-point for knight pilots that lose their minds when using the Thrones. I'm surprised there aren't more chaos cultists doing that same shit.>yeah we worship slaanesh, but we're comfortable in our own skin, thanks
I imagined 40k but as a videogame with basebuilding and in real time.Made a mockup for you guys, what do you think?
>>98795086>all that paint in the ferrule>paint on the handle?????
>>98795266Play Terminators as well?
>>98795282Not everyone is a marineshitter.
>>98795279Looks awesome! I think it should get a snazzy name to stand out in the crowd of RTSes. Base building is like crafting, and it's sci fi so it needs something cosmic to stand out. Maybe "Warhammer: Nebulacraft" or "Craft of Stars" would fit?
>>98795289>Doen't play marinesFound your problem
>>98794958if she doesn't have a dick she's immediately at least a 4, maybe a 5.
tzeentch just psychically communicated with me that soulreaper autocannons are getting nerfed and warpflamers are getting buffed. PANIC MAGNETIZE YOUR RUBRICS AND SCARABS NOOOWWWWW
>>98795038I just want more units>SoB Vindicator reskin would solve most of my problems with the list>generic paragon suit character would make them worth having more than as Morvenn bodyguards (or fix the abysmal stats, either works)Wild card, GW gives us a "vehicle" detachment that makes paragon suits battleline>a melee tankNot "close range," I literally want a tank with a big fuck-off lance on it that can do a charge, because it'd be funny. Let the main weapon swap to a huge melta if we have to.>>98795149Your list has a lot of cool units, not good units>replace Creed with a Castellan, use the 2nd Cadian blob with no leader to walk around backline objectives in the Centaur, drop Yarrick entirely>add a LR Commander with battle tank cannon and Grand Strategist enhancement, run the hull heavy bolter>drop Basilisk, HWS and Kasrkin>keep the Exterminator, add a Demolisher, run all 3 tanks as a unit, run hull lascannons in these>add a Scout Sentinel, whatever main gun you want (flamer not very good unless you run Designation Force for infiltrators on them)This is exactly 1000 points and *can* actually be a threat to your opponent. No this list is not perfect and ymmv, I threw it together over 5 minutes.
>>98795279forwarded it to GW's legal department, prepare your anus
I haven't kept up with Papa Smurfs lore. Is he still bitter and pouting about Guilliman sidelining him?
>>98795279>>98795294We could even take the end result of our cosmic base builder and turn it into a table top gameI made a mockup of a mini that makes sense for like tyranids or something
>>98795182Don't care. Will still have my way with their mouth after the forgefiend, princess, rips the suit open.
>>98795348not if I get my gargant to ‘em first!
>>98795320Thank you for the advice, but may I ask why drop the basilisk? I thought artillery was required for guard.Also what would you recommend for my other cadian shock troops special weapons? I had them as flamer/melta but haven’t finished them yet.
>put my wargear on different dudes to prevent precision from taking it all out at once>reread precision>it only lets them kill characters joined to a unitAAAAAAACCCCCCKKKKKKK
>>98795266They're expensive as fuck and can only move so fast anon. Let them wallow in their part of the board. Take the other objectives.
>>98795360At 1k points as IG you either bring a bunch of Leman Russes or you lose.
>>98795279>>98795343New Wraithlord variant just dropped.
>>98795387looks like gold poop thoughbeit
>>98795387finna turn this nigga into some crab rangoon
11th edition is fucking shit so far for everyone that doesn't have a codex. Is every new edition this unbalanced or unique to 11th?
>>98795343>>98795387This got me thinking, did Blizzard partner with any paint company for recommended brands to use?
>>98795360>artillery was required for guardWhat gave you this impression? Artillery are frankly dogshit in the current game.Artillery isn't worth it in most cases for the points, GW doesn't know how to balance indirect fire so they make it too costly and too weak to encourage people to not bring it. There are no specific rules in any detachment that buff any artillery that don't also buff other (read: better because of the above stat and point issues) units as far as I recall.Officers are required for guard to actually hit things, which is why I suggested a Russ Commander (and Grand Strategist is so he can give orders to himself alongside the other 2 tanks). Infantry officers can't order tanks unless you're using the Armored Infantry detachment. Rear line infantry going around between points don't need officers because they aren't going to be fighting. Or in the case they are, the Castellan on the other unit *should* be within 12 inches of them to give one of his two orders in that turn because tables are so small now.
>>98795387gonna paint this blue and yellow and tell my kids it's a thousand sons defiler
>>98795393this nigga goonin to some crab oml>>98795397Not to my knowledge?
>>98795397yes, they’ve stated they used apple barrel for all their miniature painting.
>>98794867Hi Adam
>>98795360>would you recommend for my other cadian shock troops special weapons?Plasma/Grenade launcher are good if you plan on keeping distance but actually using them to fightFlamer/Melta are good if you expect to fight in close range or expect to get jumped on by deepstrike.I run flamer/melta on all of my guardsmen because the only time they'll ever get to shoot is when I fuck up screening; the rest of my army is tanks, which keeps the rest of my enemy's army busy most of the time.I've considered plasma/melta before, but the melta range issue makes me not want to bother.
>>98795412
For the Guardchads here already, are heavy weapons teams actually good? They seem like you get a good amount of shooting for the points wether it's lascannons or heavy flamers or stunner/heavy bolter/autocannon. Hitting on 5s base is shit but heavy plus orders hits on 3s. What's the catch?
>>98795404Too small, it's only on a 100mm base.Siege Tank is on 150 though.
>>98795413Hey buddy
>>98795420the catch is they die to a stiff breeze. use the catachan teams who have a scouting move
>>98795420They’re amazing in transports with firing deck.Alternatively you can have them just focus down long sightlines as a “don’t come here” kit.
>>98795440>they die to a stiff breezeSo, standard for guard?
>>98795149I would trade out Kasrkin and the hippogriff for AT LEAST one more LR.
>>98795420>are heavy weapons teams actually good?Krieg HWS with flamers are phenomenal to get objective control.Cadian HWS with autocannons or heavy bolters are good overwatch (hit on 4+ with overwatch if near other infantry, including a command squad) to prevent flankingCatachan ones are best served as long-range killzone weapons; you set up "firing tunnels" where your opponent HAS to walk into 3 lascannons that hit on 3+, or go somewhere else, where you also have 3 lascannons that hit on 3+ set up. You can shut down the entire table with proper HWS placement.Also the Centaur has Firing Deck 12 and can fit 2 full HWS in it, so you can fire 6 lascannons or Mortars at once out of it. I've thought about doing an army with Centaurs with mortar HWS in them as Katyushas.>What's the catch?t3w2They're very fragile for what they do, a Leman Russ Vanquisher costs the same as 2 HWS and can't die to an attack from 5 Intercessors.HWS are best used as a means of making your opponent go somewhere else. You rarely even use them for their own weapons.
>custards blew out tau on the AoW batrep by like 45 points despite Folger fucking up his rulesHuh, guess we have a new mid-table bully after all
>>98795279>AI slop
>>98795484Nu-custodes are bad
>>98792350I'd rather have the tanks because it's more thematic. More options =/= good. Not all armies should have all options or even any variant of a certain option at all.
>>98795279I'm honestly so glad that Blizzard never actually took an offer from GW to make their games into WHFB and 40k. I hate their games and in a high likely hood it would deny us Dawn of War (and Company of Heroes) by an extension, which I vastly prefer.Dodged a bullet here
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98795505what the FUCK is his problem?
>>98795505What are you talking about? The Diablo series is one of the greatest RPG's of all time.
>>98795505this guy is risking getting stuck in the warp so he can dab on a nigga
>>98795495>More options =/= goodWhat is your opinion in regards to marines having options to do nearly everything, oftentimes better than the armies who are supposed to be "good" at that thing (ie Phobos marines movement vs. Eldar)?
>>98795527You would be crucified for this take in any cRPG community>>98795528>>98795523*teleports behind u*heh nothing personeel monkeigh
>>98795494>Nu custodes are bad>3-0 on compfag yt >Only major losses in batreps so far are when the custodes player is being a mouth breathing retard???
>>98795551>You would be crucified for this take in any cRPG communityand yet, I'm objectively correct
>>98795505>I hate their gamesWhy? They make good games, WC3 and Broodwar are classics for a reason.
>>98795475centaurs with heavy stubber or autocannon teams inside and paint it as a guntruck also incredibly orky, tempting to do the same with orks
>>98795475>>98795440>>98795443Thanks bros I learned something. I really hope they make guard good again, the guardbro at the lgs has been sad lately.
>>98795560Diablo 3 is probably the best game they ever came out with.
>>98795571Lmao D2 mogs the shit out of D3
>>98795571>Diablo 3>best game they ever came out withit's not even the best Diablo game lmao
>>98795566Its rare that guard are both good and interesting at the same time. The life of a guardbro is suffering, but not as much suffering as Dark Eldar right now.
>>98795475One last question Guardchad. For my Kasrkin; what loadout is good for a squad that’s just being enemy lines/surgical strike/solo working? My idea with them in my eventual 2k list is to carry them around in a Valkyrie (I know they’re shit but dropship are so cool) and have them either contest/take objectives and kill targets I need gone that aren’t impossible to take down by a single squad, like enemy leaders.Also, is the melta mine worth it?
>>98795560various reason. I much prefer DoW style squads, more immersive or no basebuilding, no spamming workers and WC3 is way too hero focused>>98795557Diablo is a terrible RPG with no choice and consequences, no roleplaying, terrible randomized loot system shitting out worthless items, fetch quests, grinding, braindead action combat as opposed to tactical one, with simplistic stats and skills and moreAnd to make matters worse it dragged down other cRPGs by proxy, with devs trying to emulate it's combat system for cRPGs instead of expanding tactical options.Diablo is widely considered to be the Antichrist of cRPG genre if you look at places like RPGCodex
>>98795084>>98795099They'll just spam bricks you won't be able to remove. We've been through that already.
>>98795279>>98795505>>98795527>>98795551>>98795560>>98795571>>98795578This discussion is valuable but this thread is for Warhammer 40k. /v/ would be a more appropriate board for your discussion.Lets try to keep this thread on topic :)
>>98795598Send an application in, yah wannabe janny (they do it for free) FUCK
>>98795598nigga no.what’s your guys’ favorite Deep Space Nine episode? for me, its when O’brien gets kidnapped by Cardassians and nearly gets the death penalty in a kangaroo court.
>>98795605>>98795607:( I'll leave and come back later I guess.
>>98795618You’re not contributing anything you dumbass so get outta here
>>98795618bitch, answer my question before you leave. or make up your own episode plot if you didn’t watch it.
Hawaiian shaved ice is canon in the Abbnet-verse, from HIVE.
>>98795598permanent
>>98795598I always thought it was weird that uncs in here get pissed if we step away for post or two to talk about some shit for a couple secondsLike every day this shit devolves into some stupid shit about thread drama for hours sometimes but god forbid a couple people say “yeah diablo was fun”And the starcraft shit is even semi-relevant since they have their tabletop game nowThe miniatures are really good btw
>>98795628Shit, meant Abnett
>>98795631I know its the 40k thread but like a couple posts about another game we enjoyed from the same era of our lives coming up shouldnt have hall monitor niggas screaming for the janniesWe should be able to naturally oscillate between conversations without that unless it really genuinely gets out of hand like it always does every single fucking day when thread drama bullshit gets started and people engage with it instead of just silently reporting itI like orks btw xd
>>98795622My favorite episode was when they got caught and were about to be executed along with a bunch of civilians but then the leader of the unit told the bad guy that he can help these people and asked him for help to do so and then the bad guy betrayed the bad guys and joned the good guys and helped them escape through the Chappa'ai. Sorry for not remembering the names of anyone. Watched it a long time ago.Anyway, I'm going to be painting some CSM Havocs today.
>>98795583If you're planning on using them to kill characters/leaders or backline annoyances, the same as normal. Plasma/GL or Plasma/Melta; I'd run 2 each of Plasma/Melta personally. The Melta range lets you take advantage of rapid fire on the lasguns and the plasma guns.>is the melta mine worth it?If you're fighting a mirror match into guard that has long range tanks gunning down yours, yes 100%, use your Kasrkin to force him to reposition shit and draw fire away from your own tanksIf you're fighting into any army with actually good infantry, still yes because it's a great "finishing blow" weapon to have on-hand if the rest of the weapons weren't enoughThe usage in this case of a "finishing blow" would be>drop unit wherever>advance right next to a unit, staying at least 3" away for the melta mine to work but still outside of melee range>rain hell with melta, plasma and lasgunsIf it isn't dead, you're within 3 inches so your landmine does d3 damage and will probably finish the job, but it's probably overkill fwiw because the meltas and plasmas should have done enough.Ymmv as always in a dice game. I prefer to do my big target killing from as far away as possible with LR Vanquishers so I don't run Kasrkin much if at all.
>>98795631Eh probably just has a hateboner for starcraft. Like you said shitposting about decalfag is perfectly fine and that's hardly 40k.

You can only have lines go up for so long before your whittling away at product/worker quality starts to blow back in your face and the line plummets back to earth. It’s the best system we have but it’s nearing the end of its cycle.
>>98795707>late stage capitalism>>>/r/eddit
>>98795687indeed I am, and thanks. hopefully I’ll be able to do the plasma bits justice because my last time was a bit of a disaster.
>>98795711I’m a capitalist you retarded pig but even I understand there is no perfect system and we’re at the stage of the model that calls for a drastic reset, prepare accordingly or live ignorantly.
>>98795704have you considered world eaters? They're similar to space marines, but chaos.
>>98795691It's just the new edition cycle>8th edition revamps the game>9th pushes it to a ludicrous unbalanced powercreep mess>10th edition revamps the game>11th pushes it to a ludicrous unbalanced powercreep messThey found the ideal way to milk paypiggies
>>98795707I wouldnt say that its just the normal cycle of coolness becoming uncoolThings are “cool” because they are transgressive or contrarian or break the mould in some wayThen when people with money recognize that this cool thing is catching alot of attention and it could be used as an investment vehicle for them to then make more money with, they go and invest in itBut now that they have large sums of money invested in this thing, they have to make sure that their investment is “safe”So they bring on sensitivity consultants and bloat managerial/supervisorial staffing to try to protect their investment, only for those people to then fuck up what made the thing cool in the first placeThe thing was cool because it was unsafe, weird, had fucked up imagery, stood outIf you make it safe you inherently fuck it upSo then the cycle begins anew when somebody else makes some cool new shit that catches eyesIts standard stuff really
>>98795718Youre a wagie retard you’re nothing you just live in a capitalist systemAnyway shut up man its 40k time!
>>98795730when they start adding the black walmart wine aunties that faggots like ADB love is when you know something is uncool
>>98795136Painting mining tool acolytes. I really don't like painting the armor panels, last time I did it I used an airbrush to paint all 30 neophytes at once and it made the process so much easier. It's also due to Vallejo Grey's tend to bubble up, with an airbrush had no issues.Wanted to paint the tools separately but I didn't want to worry about aligning the arms, so only gonna paint the heads separately.
>>9879569140K IS DONE (part 583)
>>98795707I think it is more because of an inevitable economic crash and down turn.Like everyone knows that a recession is coming soon. That's there reason why every industry is a bit antsy currently.
>>98795691>>no new codexes this year in 3 year edition cicleYeah this is dumb>>release unfinished rules riddled with mistakesMore at 11>>obviously changed edition direction in the last second??? 11th is literally 10.5 just like everyone expected and like GW clearly wanted it to be>>all 3 new codexes leaked in a rowEvery codex leaks, not new>>already insane power creep Must be a day that ends in y>>if you don't have a new codex you're fuckedI'm shocked, SHOCKED>>hype already dead, no one wants to buy new starterJust like the last 2, GW has been overproducing intro kits ever since the disaster that was 8th>>even scalpers don't bother buying fotmYeah because they're finally learning that GW is overproducing product>>manlet marines are removedLeast shocking thing this company has done in the last 20 years of you have more than 2 brain cells>>raising prices againPar for the course>>GW youtuber shills already leavingThe two that "left" have already made new 40k videos>>Necromunda RP aaand it's goneMeme launch that nobody expected to actually drop>>Orlocks look like they were sculpted by amature who just got hiredInconsistent sculpt quality?

>>98795768maybe not now and maybe not even in our lifetimes but one day they will be right lol
>>98795779The man proclaiming "40k is dead!" Is a fool every day but one
>>98795706Grey Knights rumored (by fatrak) to get an update this year. I'd wait on it. Maybe the baby carrier will finallyFinallyGet legends'd
>>98795730>The thing was cool because it was unsafe, weird, had fucked up imagery, stood outI think it's also because that people are genuinely becoming more desensitized.This is the only place I discuss 40k about. And honestly everytime I see someone bring up 40k it's around the most normie shit imaginable or politics. Like "X bad thing happened, hur hur this is like chaos bro." or something to do with immigration politics "bro, they are like tyranids, duude".So it just makes me roll my eyes and cringe on the inside.Basically it's pic related for me.
>>98795769Brother we’ve been in a recession lmfaoWe’ve been oscillating at the edge of recession and depression forever this is nothing newWe’re shielded from the worst of it by privilege which I use to buy and paint plastic and play board games with them

>>98795789>Brother we’ve been in a recession lmfaoI mean yeah. What we currently are in is more like "man this kinda sucks..."But what's coming in future is the type of "oh fuck, oh fuck, what am I gonna do to put food on the table?" recession.

>>98795824Who do you think pays the poor hvac guy bud? When millions go unemployed all industries suffer, the education system is just terrible in the west.
>>98795856These two statements are not contradictory
>>98795814who would win>armless legless blindfolded chicken nugget depowered goku with his nose ears and tongue gouged out>one helmetless space marine
>>98795880What is this mythical sector immune to changes in consumer spending? Is it GW? Do they still sell out all their fomo marine boxes in recessions?
>>98795856that’s cause they were all blinded by the ice he was carrying, and they all crashed their vehicles.

>>98795927>just get a government bailout! This was your answer, again you’re a fucking idiot and I’ll laugh while you suffer.
I was looking at the Ork rules with the intention of building a biker army, and I noticed something weird. The Wartrakk's "Bust'em" tags a unit so all your speed freeks get Lethals againt them. But practically every single SPEED FREEK gun has lethals already? What's the point of the debuff? In case you want to shoot a tank with your basic bikes instead of proper anti-tank firepower?
>>98795939Calling others stupid with that reading comprehension is rough ngl

>>98795970large companies like banks hospitals airports major manufacturers etc. require heating cooling and ventilation and large companies are recession proof, the gorvernment will not allow them to failthusly industries related to heating cooling and ventilation are recession resistant by proxy because they provide an essential service to companies that are inherently recession proofdo you better understand now or should I have GPT rewrite it in AAVE?>>98795947Yeah its for your other guys
Night Lords or Iron Warriors?
>>98795970hes right anon im an air conditioner and i get paid millions>>98795983cool tank anon
>>98795985What other guys? Deffkoptas also have lethal hits. Only SPEED FREAKS guns without lethal hits are the Rivet kannon in one of the warbuggy variants and the squig launcher on the squig buggy. In both cases every other gun in the model including the secondary guns already have lethal hits

Anybody else find it interesting how wargaming's audience is like mega woke, or literal nazis and almost no inbetween?
>>98795986make a new warband that integrates elements of both: the iron gargoyles

>>98795395No not unique to 11th but it's been getting far worse lately.
>>98796014Mega woke always invades spaces of the far right and never vice versa. Wargaming is inherently right wing.
>>98796014nothat's how every community looks
>>98796020No, most communities have an inbetween. wargaming doesn't though.
>>98796016Enjoy poverty
>>98795279So, Dawn of war?
>>98796025I could be unemployed for 10 years and still be fine lol>>98796014Most of the people I game with are apolitical or maybe lean a bit rightWhich I guess some people would call nazis lol
>>98796014>>98796020*every community that caters to autists But yes, every community that you or me are in
>>98796014Because we avoid retards like you on both sides. >how can you tell?You're fat and smelly.
Is there ever a disruption of the reincarnation process of a perpetual? How do they come back? Is it in their original body or in a new one? Can they change location when it happens? Are there prerequisites that need to happen?
>>98795927What color is your Bugatti, anon? I don't have one but my cars are Blue, silver green metallic and rust/grey primer colored respectively.
We just need to cross universes and import protoss as the elite xenos, similar to custodes. The immortals are perfect counters to Telemons with anti armored 2+ and D2 high volume shots while reducing all damage to 1 while they have shields

>>98796069*description of the reincarnate process
>>98796024of course warhammer has people in-between too, but you don't see them because you're already part of one extreme, so every community will LOOK like it's either made of extreme allies or extreme enemies, with no in-between
>>98796119I think the retards just stand out more
ping me when newrecruit or wahapedia updates marines
>>98795020Eldar women are spindly and thin, as Eldar have no body fat or extra 'layering' between muscle and skin. They are incapable of having large butts of large breasts.
Do we think Imperial Agents are getting a real codex this edition or nah? I really like the SoB retributor squad but I don't like SoB as an army and I can't currently take them with the current Imperial Agents codex
>>98796174The pic you posted they loterally have breasts which are fat deposits lol
>>98796179I really hope so man they’re a cool army they deserve it
>>98796174>as Eldar have no body fat or extra 'layering' between muscle and skin.wrong, your source is xenology but it doesn't say that they have nothing, it says that they don't have recognisable fat deposits or analogous energy storage systems, which doesn't mean that they don't have curves, it means that their curves are made of a substance that's not recognised as lipids.
>>98796161Wahapedia is updated
>>98794849>new book>"Hah, bet it's another female protagonist">it is, but also a they/them because even 40,000 years in the future in a setting where demons can eat your soul and rape you for eternity it is UTTERLY VITAL that modern identity politics is a primary featureIt's so fucking tiresome.
>>98796195It will be reflected in terrible sales, give it time.
>>98796195>Engaging with BLslop in any capacityIshygddt
>>98796180Eldari breasts are actually pure muscle. This is how banshees generate the swinging power to cut through space marines. And yes, their milk is also pure protein.
>>98796195I dont personally see the problem with helping everyone feel welcome at the table
everyone said snakebite is the magic paint for making leatherbut I could never get it to works
>>98796210Okay Dambski-Bowden let's stop with the shitposting and get back to bed
>>98796210Even their brains are pure muscle, reacting by reflex and forcing them to try to flex on everyone they meet.
>>98795136Gonna finish building the hellblaster bodies today and basecoat them tomorrow
>>98795274>I'm surprised there aren't more chaos cultists doing that same shit.back in the 80s>>98791772gw's original writers literally invented neopronouns for slaaneshi cultists before the left even took any interest in non-binaries and the likewhat is fucking hilarious is that at the time, "shem" and other made-up pronouns were intended to show how perverted and unnatural chaos worshippers are but by today's standards it is ironically close to ideal inclusivity standardsgw suits can't even show this bit to the world as a proof they cared about inclusion 40 years ago because it is actually the proof that its first game designers weren't inclusive at all
>>98796215How? Paint a beige color then tastefully filter the snake bite over it and it’s done.
>>98796174Bwo you're quoting a book that is supposed to be an in-universe text filled with bullshit
>>98796235>but by today's standardsIt still has the original intended effect for 99% of the population. The amount of people who actually want this is tiny.
>>98796180>>98796187>>98796246There still aren't canonical 'curvy' Eldar.
>>98796253there are no canonical big tiddy water caste envoys either and yet here we are
>>98796253Actually there areMy headcanon takes priority over both your headcanon and official canon as well
>>98796253I dont care what's canon
>>98796215Rhinox hide and mournfang for beginners. Practice layering and mixing.
>>98796253Ok dearie
>>98796277Didn't Calgar kill a big titty envoy that was trying to corrupt the men?
>>98796174>nu40k thoughIt is made by retards who don't understand the setting or why people like it.Here's an image made by GW before they became cucked.
>>98796253There are reasonably big titty eldar models what the fuck are you talking about?
>>98796253See >>98796295
>>98796253they get a BBL when they enter the aspect shrine
First blasters status: Assembled.Next step: Priming
This motherfucker can smack the enemy primarch, knight, or tank with 5 2+ 14 -4 4 at any time for 90 points but Mephiston costs MORE THAN A DREADNOUGHT for doing 3 damage instead of D3. FUCK YOU GW
>>98796287i mean I end up just painting with base brown paint in the endbut they said the snakebite supposedly is the magic paint that magically finish your leather pouch in one go so I wanted that
>>98796310Beakies = based. Chapter?
>>98796235I'm almost certain this was referencing something, not inventing it. 30 Rock made a similar joke in the '00s and I'm pretty sure I've seen something in the 90s reference something similar. I think it's a case of querr theory and GW drawing from the same source rather than something being invented twice.
>>98795136I'm tired boss
>>98796322I don't think any single character should be putting out that much damage in the first place.
>>98796253
>>98796325Red Templars. I like beakies too. When I build the other half of the box I'll likely scrounge up some other heads so I can spread them around to other units
>>98796253Also see my 3E metal banshees >>98795136
did GW forget about doing necron 11th ed updates halfway through the faction pack or am I missing something?e.g>overlords free strat ability is still a free strat instead of -1cp to the strat like everybody else, iirc other characters in different factions have an FAQ to make it -1cp>cosmic precision stratagem allows you to deep strike within 3", it was nerfed to 6" in a 10th ed balance update but that FAQ no longer exists nor appliesare both of these abilities effectively as written? or again, am I missing something in the core rules?
>>98796322>3 damagehuehue for 65pts onlyI feel bad for listening to GW's advice on taking them for Terminators and other 3w marines.
>>98794639> delvan box restocked>Still one box left on sales at MSRPI mean I dont play neither guardsman or tyranid But I'm tempted to get that box cause muh FOMO
>>98796253Yvraine, Jain Zar, Amallyn are right here
>uhm but what about this sexy banshee model? There are dudes in Banshee armor, its just designed to look female.
>>98796380Yuck!
>>98796322GW has this tendency to overestimate BA. No idea how and why that happens.
>>98796384It's simple. BA are enough of a pull factor by their design alone. Thematically weak chapters such as IH and IF need rules crutches to pull players at all.
>>98796380How poor eldar girls hides their tits in the rest aspects then?
>>98795986NL if I had to choose, but as long as they're both just colorways for CSM I can and will decide on a day-to-day basis whether I want to torture myself freehanding lightning or torture myself freehanding hazard stripes
>>98796368dumb gremlyn
>>98795136Have to wait for the texture paste to dry.But looking forward to paint him and the base because I'll make a greenish stream between his legs with clear resin. behind him is a pipe where that will come out of
>>9879638095% of banshees are female, just like 95% of striking scorpions are male, this is like entry level lore
>>98796365>>98796368>Canonically doomed to be Bad End'd repeatedly for eternity in an unlimited dungeonJust like those bleak Japanese comics
>>98796322I have no idea why you are complaining about Mepshiton. He usually is overcosted because of his stat bloat. Also he's a gay donut steel character and easily the worst thing about BA. Complain about my boy tycho being squatted.
>>98796395Miniature webway gates.
Vyacheslav please update Wahapedia for Space Marines & Custards I wanna check the datasheets.
Actually I think you're just a fat fucking retard
>>98796405it's not fair
>>98796395There is boob armor on female eldar (guardians, corsairs), there just aren't any female sculpts of the other aspects.
>>98795562Flash Gits and Tankbustas in transports with firing deck works. With the Wreckas detachment there's even a stratagem for +1 to hit for the firing deck. Enjoy clown car firing 36 busta rokkit attacks at 3+ from a trukk. That's almost enough dakka.
>want to do custom chapter master >using lion datasheet/base size>want him to be riding a dragon/drake>no models the right size reallymad

>>98796413>MFW I stumble into the webway room that leads to all the Eldar titties
>>98796358I mean if it works it works>>98796384Reeeeeee make my characters playable GW!I actually just realized that calgar is even worse because of course he is. He is only FIVE points more expensive than mephiston. His basic melee is the same as mephiston's but with more strength and fucking TWIN LINKED while mephiston gets lethal hits and a keyword that does nothing except give some units fnp against him. Calgar also gets an extra STRENGTH FOURTEEN AP 3 DAMAGE D3+3 attack that is ALSO twin linked for some ungodly reason and isn't even a hunter profile! Plus he gets 3 datasheet abilities which all have the potential to vastly help your army and his unit, and deepstrike. Mephiston's right now only has his psychic abilities, which he can't even use all the time, one of which just does one third of the function of calgar's first ability, and sure mephiston gets lone op, fnp and fights first, but fights first is a nerf half the time this ed, fnp is a mere 30% dmg reduction, and all lone op does is prevent him from getting randomly sniped, it doesn't help at all when he's where he wants to be, in close combat with the enemy. Calgar can walk up and bitch slap a tank off the board by himself easily while also opening up huge flexibility for other units in your army and his own terminator bodyguards while mephiston maybe charges and kills 2 terminators or 3/4 marines and maybe survives the fight back if you're lucky. TOTALLY THE FUCKING SAME!
>>98796432Sorry, I forgot you can't actually fire the sixth rokkit launcha with firing deck, 30 rokkits and 2 rokkit pistol attacks it is.
>>98796479my bad, I meant "I might unironically sell stuff myself", as I plan on proonting stuff for myself anyway.
>>98796384Probably because they won tournaments all the time in 9th and especially 10th
>Brought my smaller nurgle army to sell at my local place (it was having the yearly "bring your shit and see if anyone wants it" event)>Tell myself: "No one is buying this shit">It is bought within ten minutes

>>98796550No, but I'll be playing as marines with the new codex on friday. BA vs World Eaters
>>98796396I feel like you could pretty easily use some lil sticky tape or a stencil or something for hazard stripes
>>98796509Yeah man people like this stuff its fun for the whole family
>>98794907Permanent means PERMANENT
>>98796557Yeah hazard stripes or any straight line really is easy with tape
>>98796557You can use teensy masking tape, yes.That wouldn't be very iron within of you, though, plus it can be more trouble than it's worth depending on where the stripes are going.

whats stopping me from using the HH jet pack dudes as raptors/warptalons for 40k
thread is veering dangerously towards derailing yet again over this faggot who may not even be them, no timestampreminder to stay on topic and report off topic>>98796623I would accept it as legitimate (zen)
>>98796641I dunno ask /hhg/
>>98796641Nothin go for it senpai
>>98796641You deciding you don't like themYour opponent being autistic about proxiesThat's itI proxy my entire CSM army with HH models to be thematic with the renegade raiders detachment. The height difference is negligible.
>>98796636Hellblasters with time stamp you car-dwelling, ban evading pedophile. now.
>>98796630I never told decalfag to fuck off but I like that story
Bey /40kg/, remember at the end of last edition when GW put out that really nifty Crucible thing for making custom characters, and people got really happy to use it since most factions got a ton of options in it?And remember how some people even thoerized that it could be hinting at more custom HQ loadouts in 11th, building off the Crucible system?And then how there were also a few smaller voices saying that GW would abandon the entire thing the instant 11th dropped, and that there would more than likely be rules changes that expressly REMOVED the ability to take Crucible characters, and that at the end of the day most of the playerbase wouldn't even bat an eye at it since they're going to be too busy smashing their overpowered named characters into each other anyways?Well guys, you'l never fucking guess what happened!
>>98796660What is unc going on about now?
I LIKE ORKS XD
>>98796650>>98796644I just posted a new pic of my blasties like 4 hours ago y oh blind rats >>98795177And I posted a new timestamp yesterday now fuck off
>>98796692See>>98796640
>>98796660my LGS used them for all of about 2 months by abusing OP loadouts (and not suitably converting...) and then dropped them entirely
>>98796660>>98796665Uncs, lol. When will they learn?
>>98796727Put one of your knights in frame or I'm calling bullshit
>>98796727your tantrum when you realize you still won't be allowed in the collage if you manage to finally finish these will be excellent
Hellblaster status?
>>98796736This obviously lol its clearly just some nigga fucking being annoying with this gay shit yet again for the millionth time like its so insanely difficult to just shut up and talk about 40k in the 40k thread
>>98796622Who is more demented, the man screaming nonsense or the man who comes to have a horde of people scream nonsense at him?
>can pull a unit out of combat for freemonolith is underrated
>>98796761It’s just such a huge target and I’d hate to bring 2
>>98796758I honestly don’t know whose side you’re on based on this indecipherable babble.
>painted hellblasters No way it's him, we've been had!
>>98796767I bring 3honestly it's size isn't too bad to deal with, because it's a square it's very easy to make it basically always get cover
>>98796772They’ve been at that stage for a year admittedly but I will be finishing them for this month, let’s drop the subject tho for obvious reasons.
>2 paints for €13.60damn, all my Vallejo washes went to shit and are unusable but this is extortion.
>>98796782I hope my paints are still good after a year I do kinda shake the box every now and then
>>98796757>after giving the okaynobody did thisyou are PERMANENTLY banned from the collage, you finally painting your sloppablasters after over a year would not change that fact>>98796782army painter washes are the best bang for your buck
>>98796777
>>98796792Are you the collage manager? I doubt it as he usually keeps his behavior classy and respectful when discussing his position.
>>98796796I made a slight amendment to my list last time but it's basically the same>Hypercrypt>whatever the warrior and immortal 1dp detachment is called idk>Necron Overlord w/ translocation shroud>20x necron warriors (enlivened sentinels)>20x necron warriors (enlivened sentinels)>20x necron warriors>monolith>monolith>monolith2000/2000ptsno one can bitch because its thematic
>>98796809Kek, extremely based list.
>>98796801LE LE ECKS DEE XD DECALFAG :DD XDXD XDDDD XD XDD
>>98796786Mine got separated from pigment so even after vigorous shaking and churning it like milk with an old brush, it still dries extremely glossy and practically are unusable. Not even the gloss varnish I use is that that glossy, it crystallizes like a glass surface. I like Vallejo Game Color and use them for the most part but the washes are a big no from my experience with them.>>98796786These were the easily available ones from GW, I got it through my brother but otherwise I'd get them from taschengelddieb.
>>98796801>Are you the collage manager?no, but he's told you time and time again that you are not allowed after you repeatedly failed his extremely simple requests for improved behaviouryou've spent the last 8 months calling him a mentally ill lefty troon that nobody listens to and nobody cares about, why would he suddenly change his tune for you?go ahead and point to the bobross post saying you would be allowed in if you painted your dogshit hellblasters, you can't
>>98796815I will be playing it tomorrow
>>98796770tubby nigga talmbout some sides cuz he cant get his mind of a side of mac n cheese and mashed potatoes type shit lmaoo>>98796761Its also just the most based model there is tbqh

MOM! THE DECALFAG CAN’T SEPARATE FACT AND OPINION AGAIN!
You think that decalpedo posted Megumin not even knowing she's a loli? He's said he knows nothing about the anime and just has the coin.
>>98796835it's a simple list that just worksit has a hidden layer of some funky rules interactions, abuse of GW not being able to FAQ correctly (I assume) and order of operations you need to keep track ofmonoliths have anti-tank with death rays, anti MEQ with the particle whips, and the warriors can deal with cheap infantry, and punch above their weight due to lethals
>>98796859I had no idea it was loli and I said as much, I’ve never seen the anime
>>98796827Decalfag is a leftist. Reality is what he wants it to be.
>>98796873Decalfag is called decalfag because he used to have SS tanks retard
Report off topicSimple stuff boysAny games thiscoming weekend?
>>98796727look at those sausage toes. decalfag confirmed lardass.
>>98796727Still cracks me up how you tried to copy O&Tfag's faceplate thing thinking he'd like you again if you did
>>98796727Why does this look long you took this in your car
What's stopping the mods from rangebanning Decalfag?
Makes me sad seeing the unreleased FW stuff from the imperial armour/throne of chaos days.I honestly doubt we will ever get a resin sculpt again.
>>98796894They dont know where hes at exactly probablyThey might even be involved in some way idk lmaoEither way this shit dont matter just hide it and filter it or something40k is all that matters…
>>98796894mobile phones can have their IP be fucking anywhere. if they decide to rangeban him, they’ll have to rangeban the entirety of arkansas, and that’s considered not worth it to the mods. I may be biased because I post here, but I still think its worth it because he’d 100% blow his brains out on day 5 of being rangebanned
>>98796904Post the blasters with the timestamp and another one of your models or you arent decal youre just trollingIt would take next to no time, any refusal or excuse or deflection would obviously oust you immediately because its an extremely low effort proof
>>98796907This x1000, just talk shop and nothing else, it’s the fuckin ez
>many [mods] are probably on my side.I know there’s a timestamp, but there’s no way this nigga is fr right?
>>98796904>I don’t do anything other than defend myself so many are probably on my side.other than evading your permaban 285 times
>>98796904>so many are probablyYou have to say "probably" because no one has ever defended you here ever
>>98796904>Making shit upNope! Somebody pointed it out when you first posted them and you stated that was why
Wishful thinking led me to believe he was gone. Oh well, least its amusing that he's a little fat fuck wearing sandals indoors.
>>98796930>3 years of posting here, and there’s not a single model poster who likes himwhy does he do it?
>>98796931But anon, it makes him look bad so it's fake news.
Alright seriously enuff of this shit, just stick to Warhammer related discussions and nothing else.
>>98796935everytime I think its just a dude impersonating, he always proves me a fool by letting me know that yes, he really does lack that much self awareness, and is that much of an annoying retard.
>>98796943Permanent means permanent.
hows your collage submission coming along, /40kg/?
>>98796943why do you always pull this shit when getting confronted with the truth? you autistically screech and spin delusions, and at the moment when it becomestoo much to bear you decide that you don’t actually like getting bullied.
>>98796926Nah, its someone else. See >>98796923 and >>98796736
>>98796611Sorry for posting models
>>98796727@Grok is this real?>them grippers
>>98796960That's not how this works
>>98796952I have my squad of Fire Dragons (I know its not plasma but fuck it, it's all I got) primed....want to finish my banshees first though. I think I'll get a couple contrast/speedpaints to help the dragons go faster.
>>98796952I've been too busy fixing my car, but I've got a conversion planned so hopefully it'll be done before the end of the month.
>>98796971What is wrong with the toes they look perfectly fine to me
Is it just me or are aggressors kind of crazy? Why the fuck did they get blast 2 and twin linked on torrent weapons? They are mathematically guranteed to kill any unit of guardsmen or gaunts that they overwatch, and even against tactical marines, if you end within 9 inches and activate their rule(which you all but have to do if you want to charge) they have a 90% chance of killing 6/10 models in a 10 man unit, and a 70% chance of killing the entire unit in a 5 man squad.
>>98796952I need to grab some sculpting tools for milliput, gonna sculpt pumpkin heads for aberrants. I'll probably do only one. I need to find a job soon but I'm just too lazy.
>>98796973Sure thing buddy. >>98796952Finished building the bodies and was planning on priming today but I cant find my FUCKING primer so fuck
>>98795986Night Lords
>>98796971I think the artist who draws the mutant needs to update, I’d guess at the point where the fat starts going into your toes, he must be around 5’6 and ~300 poinds
>>98796936He has deluded enough to believe the silent majority likes him. That or he's desperately trying to will that into reality.
>>98796952got my squad of 5 primedwill airbrush basecoats tonight after the gym
The Imperium should use Luna Wolves gene-seed.If they were so good, why not do it? What’s the worst that could happen?
>>98796982Fat little piggy aint'ya? Juicy ass boy*smacks lips*
>>98796952Assembled, but unpainted. I posted half of them in the thread.
>>98796994His toes look normal tho, what am I missing here?
>>98796990>spoilerI’ve been through 2 interviews this week already and of them I’ve already been rejected by 1, the other has been cold. Trying to find even a minimum wage job feels like shit nowadays.
>>98797010They don't decalfag. You're fat as fuck LMAO.
>>98797019he needs to prove it by posting a timestamp next to fat, morbidly obese belly.
>>98796980ratFAG
>>98797000They already did
>>98797019Can we see your toes?
>>98797012Someone suggested I go back to my old place that I quit from, as my exit was quite amicable and I still see people from there and go every once in a while. It's an utterly bullshit job that is just soul draining but there's familiarity and I don't have to go through the humiliation ritual that is the job hunting. Quite a lot of people left and all they have are newbies so someone who's worked there for 5 years is a safe choice for them, provided they're hiring currently. I just hate this, and best of luck to you.
>>98797000Shadow wolves, created by ADB who wanted to make a luna wolves loyalist chapter for his wife who is a fan of pre heresy luna wolves. They're cnaon still. Also pretty sure Cawl didn't give a shit and used geneseed from all legions for the ultima founding.
>>98797012You’ll get it done anon just keep at and remember keep a positive state of mind, you’re 40kg brothers are rooting for you!
>>98797043this shit is tickling me so bad, he’s pulling the same exact wording he does when someone shits on his models, and then demands for them to post theirs. next he’ll be calling someone a “notoes”, or maybe if someone posts toes he’ll insist on them being a “toeslet”
>>98796943>>98796925You've defined a (widely reviled) style of miniature painting in your unhinged overuse of decals, you've been involved in (and banned from) every /40kg/ community project for the past few years, you've gotten multiple good and valued model posters to leave over how insufferable you are, and you've made a spectacle of yourself off-site by getting banned from reddit multiple times. I've even seen you brought up in 40k threads on gaming boards where you've been noted as the foremost current shitposter back here on the tabletop side of things.So you being a sausage boy is on topic to Warhammer 40k as you are a notable and infamous figure in the 40k community. Just like talking about Cavill is sometimes relevant, so is talking about the revelations of you being a deformed sausage boy.
>>98796990is that you, crisp af painter gsc bro?
yes you may, I’ve chosen to put it next to a warhammer box to keep it on topic. now may we see all five of your little piggies :)
>>98797043>fat gay furry with a toe fetish
what are gsc most scared of? ive got an idea to enhance my collage entry, can combine the two themes into one
>>98797065Dude nobody cares about what happens here or the so called “decalfag”. I’ve never once heard that name uttered anywhere else but this place so take your meds and stop shitting up our general.
Is Nuln Oil supposed to be glossy? I tried to add shading to a cape and it turned out nice but glossy.
>>98797083You're wrong lil bitch nig because I've talked about you elsewhere. People find you a morbid laughing stock.
>>98797055>Shadow wolves, created by ADB who wanted to make a luna wolves loyalist chapter for his wife who is a fan of pre heresy luna wolves.He didn't even make an effort; he just used the special wolves' badge.
>>98797075Your foot literally looks like it belongs to a Necron flayed one, repulsive.
>>98797083trying too hard>>98797090new formula is glossier yeah, hit it with a matte coat (should be varnishing models when they're done anyways)
>>98797069I'm a GSC-bro but probably not the crisp one that you're thinking of.>>98797081Gameplay-wise? Anything with high volume of damage 1 attacks so flamers, chain swords and things of that sort. Lore-wise I don't know the cultists readily throw themselves at the enemy out of pure devotion.>>98797090The new formula for washes are glossy, at least that's my experience with the Agrax Earthshade & Reikland Fleshshade.
>>98797090Yes, Nuln is a city in Fantasy that specialised in gunpowder. Nuln oil was made to slap on guns for that extra greasy grimy look, but it took off all over the normieweb as "liquid gold" and retards started using it for everything. If you want a more matte/satin dark shade look elsewhere or you're better off mixing your own with a tinge of whatever base colour you're going over
>>98797083>>98797099Footmogged. Spiritually Raped. Permenantly Banned.
>>98797107nah i mean thematically, i was thinking of sticking something scary on the nexos table but im not sure how i could paint it to make it look like a hologram. was thinking of maybe having half a deathwatch marine on it or something
>>98797090>>98797110>it turned out niceOh wait mb if you actually like the shading you can hit it with matte varnish as the other anon said, that will also help
>>98797083WRONGhttps://desuarchive.org/tg/thread/98748831/#98749050
>>98797083Thanks for confirming that was you yesterday. Fucking knew it, btw
>>98797099SOMEONE POSTED TOES AND HE CALLED IT REPULSIVETHIS NIGGA TALKING ABOUT TOES LIKE HE’S CRYING OVER AN MODELPOSTERHAHAHAHA
>>98797132Nobody responded because nobody knew what the hell you were talking about, what a pathetic self own. Now STOP!
>>98797117How about a deathwatch marine helmet (or upper torso) and the Nexos doing Edvard Munch's scream at it? I think you can paint the marine in a simple way with speed paints, I just remember this guy's ghosts so something like that.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eFfY4tO2EU
>>98797117The T'au have a cure for GSC-ism and offer an alternative to Imperial rule that doesn't involve getting eaten by space bugs, so they're a pretty effective foil. The Death Guard can show up and render a planet inedible before the four-armed Emperor's angels show up.
>>98797143>everyone who dislikes the decalfag is one personlol. everyone hates you dude.
>>98797143>STOP!Yeah this gotta be a shitposter
My Space Marine List feels so shit after getting the Armageddon Box but I legit dont know what to do other then spend more money. the space marine side of Arma was so bad.>Captain>Chaplain>Ancient>Two intercessors Squad>Brutalis Dread>BladeGuard>Vet Guard Jump Squad>Heavy Bolter Gravid Squad>Land SpeederI honestly dont know what to do after the rule changes, none of the detachments seem to fit this list (I only play 1kp) My best bet I think is combine the intercessors into one squad and add the ancient so they can Sticky an Objective and shoot around it. but I really dont know without spending another 200 bucks getting new models.Please Space marine bros what do I do.
>>98797075Oh are we doing this
>>98797143The spiritual rape will continue until morale improves.
>>98797154why did you ai generate a foot and a box of fake intercessors lmao
Alright just nuke the entire thread at this point.
Caught me right as im about to go on shift. No time for toes, but have my boot with some collageblasters
>>98797145thats what i was thinking, i might leave the nexos face as it is as he looks old af and has that "i couldnt give a fuck" look about him which just makes it hilarious looking at something like that. i just have to source the upper body of a deathwatch marine from somewherethats similar to what i plan on doing, ill be using a blue speedpaint for it, just need to make it look convincing with the glow effect
>>98797169OH MY GOD PLEASE STEP ON MY BALLS AND CALL ME A NOMODELSPLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
I knew I wasn't crazythis is from the 3e and 5e codexesit also shows the symbol as being the one used for the fire caste, so I guess GW in their infinite wisdom decided to change the empire's logo instead of just changing the fire caste symbol
>>98797191Captcha ate pic?
>>98797169Ooh, post your pallet/scrap/blotting paper would be a fun thread prompt. I know mine is a crazy work of madness.
Is anyone here even still playing the tabletop? Or are we all waiting in limbo for our codex?

>>98797214Oh, it's only just beginning porky.

>>98797191>>98797199>so I guess GW in their infinite wisdom decided to change the empire's logo instead of just changing the fire caste symbolI do not followI know you mentioned earlier about the tau symbol being the fire caste symbol and it should be the ethereal symbol instead
>>98797153Well every single model you got aside from Gravis marines are using the basic-bitch tactical armor, so pick one of those.>>98797178Nexos' face looks like a grumpy old man, swap it with a screaming neophyte if going for the scare theme. But then the pose doesn't really fit into it so you may need to swap the body. I think you can remove the knife from the arm bit that's changeable with the Cult Icon from the Neophyte kit. I don't have the sprue with me so I can't show it but I like your idea overall.>>98797198I do every other two weeks. Have yet to play vs. the new marines but I look forward to.
>>98797153Any advice here would be useful.
>>98797231It'd make sense theoretically for the literal master race to have their logo double as the faction's, but practically the T'au emblem most potential client worlds are going to see most will be the fire or water castes', and the fire caste is the one you're putting on the table, so
>>9879723940k isn't balanced around 1k at all. Just play combat patrol vs someone (you both pick two squads to face off vs each other)
>>98797153>balance at 1k gamesIf you want to win 1k just spam elite units/dreds.
Desert bases or bases with thick mud and puddles for orks (Goffs)? I'm torn between them, but desert bases seem a little cliche for orks.
>>98797260mud and puddles would look kino
>>98797153>but I legit dont know what to do other then spend more moneyWell yeah, starter sets are just that. Meant to kickstart an army but they expect you to add more, the game is balanced around 2k as others have said.
>>98797221as of sixth this is now the tau sept logo, with the resulting problem that every single tau unit wears giant logos of their caste instead of their septThis is somewhat ameliorated by the fact that etherials always wore their caste logo (although for them it makes more sense because there's so few of them and they're meant to be above the sept in some ways) and that the few air caste units were all made after so they carry the triangle instead of the circle, but it still looks dumb to have decorations that were explicitly intended to be a mark of unity actually show division
>>98797260Thick mud sounds cool.
MEANWHILEON CHOGORIS
>Mini of the month is gone>Now you have to take a paint class to get itWhat a dogshit company GW is, I am so tired.
>>98797316Mongols are based, why do fantastical versions of them always get sidelined?
>>98797277they changed it as they got sued by bungie, clearly
>>98797277Eh, they're all united under the Greater Good, but they're still strictly segregated along racial lines, to the point that non-fire castes are, in the event of violence, expected to just fucking die before picking up a weapon, for example, so being branded in a way that shows they know their place is still on-brand
>>98797324Such an odd thing to complain about. Are you one of those fat retards that bounce between all stores for the mini of the month?
>>98796322They intentionally nerfed all the supplement chapters I think, so people would try to play codex compliant and buy new models before the new ones came out.
I wish tau wasn't a shooting army only. I dont want to have to use kroot. I wish their shooting got nerfed but in exchange their fight phase got better
>>98797324does anyone even visit warhammer stores anymore?
>>98797212I'm an EMT>>98797219Kek. This too, technically
>>98797324To play devil's advocateMini of the month was a way to get returning customers to come in and maybe buy things at GW's inflated prices, but would slowly die off because of the slow boil of every negative about the process (fuel to get there, time, scalpers, stores not giving them for free, etc).The new "paint class" thing is a way to get people who otherwise have no experience painting to come in, learn how it's not actually that hard, and maybe buy some more models and paints to then become a new customerFrom a business perspective, it makes sense to grow the pool of potential customers; because GW assumes that pre-existing customers will keep buying (they've been right so far), so they don't need catered too beyond "keep selling the products that they're currently buying."Not saying I agree because I quite liked the mini of the month thing to get models to try new schemes and even test out buying whole armies, but the new system does clearly have a benefit from a lowest common denominator sense. I personally don't have a reason to go to a GW-owned store anymore, they're too far away, their prices are too high and their selection isn't exclusive enough to be worth it.
>>98797367>I wish that all armies were good at everything
>>98797370where the fuck else am I supposed to play this godforsaken game
>>98797331it is illegal to hurt the feelings of the chinese+gw has not figured out how to fully turn the 30k white scars into chinese but they're trying.
>>98797376Honestly I just think tau mech suits look cool but I don't want to play a faggoty shooting only army
>>98797380Mongols were Chinese for quite a while. Ruled them as an imperial dynasty, to be precise.
>>98797353That's lore from a bad bookother castes being capable of self defence was well established, as demonstrated by that one that was about to shoot a blueberry or the fucking models having gunsgranted the water caste model has guns on the drone, but there was no indication that they'd stand and let themselves be killed instead of having a pistol hidden in their robes too
>>98797378not in warhammer stores, they got rid of their gaming tables years ago :(
>>98797378Do you not have any other LGS in your area?
Man I love getting deals off Amazon, but holy shit they love to smash the shit out of your order.
>>98797408there was a water caste model?
>>98797408You're the first person I've heard say that Elemental Council is bad.
>>98797402https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVY1fSBUL3QThere were many 'mirror' or 'shadow' empires in history, the mongols 'becoming chinese' is what destroyed the Yuan. The existence of empires like Xiongnu and Xianbei (vs. Han), Rouran (Jin), Gokturk (vs. Tang) The Rouran even fled west and formed a new Avar Empire in modern hungary to war against Byzantium and Francia, before being supplanted by the Bulgars who were then defeated by the Magyars who were menaced by the Cumans and Khazarian (JEWS) Empire (who also fought the arabs).The mirror empire coalesces because the economy of steppe peoples, mountain tribes, desert tribes relies on controlling trade routes and tolling them or raiding the settled people of the river valleys in their cities. The city empire outnumbers the steppe empire 50 to 1 or 100 to 1, but the steppe warriors are hard as nails and born in the saddle (or desert/mountain equivalents) and oppose the relatively weak but numerous peasants conscripted by the settled empire.Eventually, adopting the customs of a settled empire themselves or even conquering and absorbing the identity of that empire leads to the collapse of the steppe empire as the warriors become weak and the leaders become ch*nese.

>>98797424for inq54, yeah>>98797426It's written really badly, just stunted and unpleasant to read on a technical levelThe story itself is very mushy and the plot just "happens", and the ending where a callidus somehow manages to not know how to imitate tau hand sign language or putting the rings the ethereal she's imitated wore on the wrong hand is dumb and flows very poorly
>>98797422Did yours even come in a box?The last time I bought models on Amazon (Cadian Command Squad) they came in one of those gray-white plastic bags so it had no protection anyway.At least my models weren't damaged.
>>98797438Lmao the Yuan fell because they couldn't stop being retard step Mongol idiots and kept going to war over succession
>>98797373>an actual woman posts on /40kg/Color me surprised.
>>98797408>>98797424there was also a pilot for a knight and a pilot for a Crimson hunter model.I don't care for tau but it would be cool to own 1 of each caste. Or kitbash tau into five fantasy races during the time when tau warred against tau and the earth niggas built walls and guns and fire niggas came at them with knives and some kind of tau version of the chariot I suppose.
>>98797422This happened to me with a custards dread. The box was so smashed it was physically missing parts out of the sprue.There's one angry guy at Amazon fucking with everyone's shit, apparently.
>>98797454the wars over succession are covered there, the steppe empires are strong because they have trial by combat successions but the settled empires make them weak because they have petty assassination-type successions with politics instead of Rule of the Strongest.
Where will warhammer be in 10 years? What are your predictions?
>>98797463I'm pretty sure the UK is going to fall into a civil war in the next few years. So unless they move the company over to the US they might be fucked.
>>98797468The US isn't faring any better. It's also about to have a civil war soon.

>>98797410They kinda walked back on that. Retail in my cunt dropped by like 10% before they realised how fucking stupid that idea was.
>>98797463
>>98797449It's a bit rough in spots, and is absolutely being soft carried by not being another Phil Kelly book, but Van Nguyen's seemingly limitless imagination for T'au shit and him being a former jarhead who can effectively write fire warriors doing modern infantry tactics endears me to it enough to forgive its relatively minor faults.I don't mind the the assassin blowing her cover like that; it's not unprecedented, it's not an Imperial Agents book, and at the end of the day *someone* has to graduate bottom of their class at the Schola AssassinorumIt's definitely a more character- and worldbuilding-focused book, but there's nothing wrong with that.
>>98795182>blurb uses normal english grammarwait, is anon mad that they didn't use neo-pronouns
>>98797463Belly up and our models will be so rare that they’ll be viewed in museums and worth millions.
>>98797534I will say that I really liked the little tidbits about how badly the entire race is terrified of genestealers and especially how they all bowed to the ground before cuffing the etherealIt's just that when I read it I didn't get immersed because the description of the world the events are happening in is quite sparse, and instead of moving smoothly from sentence to sentence I found myself mechanically moving along; the writing not really holding up to peering too deeply at each word, either.Oh, and I thought the deafmute shas'o who acted as a diet ethereal was really cute too - I guess I like the concept of the book and not the execution
I have never read a 40k book.
how'd you play the game without reading the rules?
Someone explained the rules to me.
>>98797578To be honest, this has always been the best way to learn the rules. Playing the game and making mistakes and correcting it over time.
>look at some Seer Council lists for ideas for my own before buying>every single one has at least 3 named characters and would cost upwards of $1200I just want to cast spells and shit man
>>98797590James hates space wizards. Just ask the 1k sons
>>98797545Lmao
>>98797558Van Nguyen's prose leaves something to be desired, for sure—he has habits like stopping a scene a bit early and summarizing how it concluded in the next one to keep things moving, and having a scene play out and then after the fact explaining what the fuck just happened, but these are just things you have to deal with when reading fiction.>Oh, and I thought the deafmute shas'o who acted as a diet ethereal was really cute too*Kor'oBut yes, that sort of thing is exactly the appeal and what allows me to overlook stuff like a space marine surviving getting shot in the face with a cyclic ion raker and "gosh, it sure is convenient that the T'au base happens to have a fully intact set of Space Marine armor"—it's more than the sum of its parts
>>98797564Read the Night Lords trilogy.
>>98797615nta but I'm halfway through and Octavia makes me want to chuck ADB off of a bridge
>>98797615sell me on it
>>98797621Her and Uzas are the fucking worst, yeah
>>98797628The protagonists are unrepentant murderers, torturers, and slavers and by the end of the first book you will find them sympathetic and relatable and be cheering them on.
>>98797608I've developed the ability to just not absorb whatever happens to a space marine a bookThey either live or die and the game or lore power of whatever's attacking them slides cleanly off my mindI was actually quite amused at how chekhov's power armour was totally irrelevant to the plan and the story in general
>>98797650I love that they all just hate each other pretty much, makes for a fun dynamic.
>>98797650shame on people for thinking he’s a monster. that skin suit was ethically farmed from captive humans that died peacefully through poison. there was absolutely no suffering that went into making that suit.
Shame
>>98797650Why isn’t there a gore kit like the skull bits
>>98797628Imagine if Bonnie & Clyde were a chaos space marine chapter, but far less charismatic and they fucking hate each other.
>>98797564read Eisenhorn > Ravenor > Bequin. Everything else is fucking trash. Inquisition is the only interesting POV for the setting because it gets into the actual society of the imperium and isn't just a bunch of retard manchildren shooting guns for 300+ pages.
>>98797698Don't read Bequin.
>Night LordsThe most retarded legion. How the fuck can space marines be stealthy? You'd hear those nigga's boots from miles away.
>>98797698>Inquisition is the only interesting POV for the settingWhat about commissars like the guy from Fire Caste or what's-his-name from the Ciaphas Cain books?
Any good xenos books? I'm not a fan of marinewank or imperiumwank desu

>>98797751Da Big Dakka is fine, and I assume Brutal Kunnin' is as well. I still don't care for orks.
>>98797748I like how a colonialist empire controlled by a literal master race whose dominion is so entrenched that the language itself denies any questioning of their authority is still the least grimdark faction in the setting
>>98797707it's called skill nigga
>>98797775Disturbing
>>98797767>I assume Brutal Kunnin' is as well.It's thoroughly passable audiobook fodder. There's some Mike Brooksisms that are obnoxiously noticeable but don't detract too much from the story and the protagonist is the least interest ork of the bunch as well as pretty bland for a bad moon (and a shitty Ghaz rip-off AND Brooks' self-insert) but it still works as background noise while painting and such
>>98797800Is the AdMech half of the book decent, at least?
>>98797816I feel bad for Marty still having a mid life crisis.
>>98797816well anon, lets see some results from the video
how about you fuck off and kill yourself and spare the rest of us your normalfag clickbait
>>98797836
>>98797812The ork half is the better half, unfortunately. The admech is about a single girlboss techpriest being smarter than all the magos and the only one taking the ork threat seriously, being BOLD and WISE enough to engage in tech-heresy without getting corrupted, and outwitting as well as outfighting a CSM Heresy veteran. By the end I just wanted her dead but she's one of the only survivors unfortunately, but I'll headcanon her as getting servitorized by another magos for failing her forgeworld and fucking off with a bunch of relictech (partially so he could claim her recovered relictech for himself)I will say that as much as I don't care for Blackhawk himself (seriously, the fuck kinda ork title/name is "blackhawk"? If you're gonna name a character after your performative-punk copehair, at least make it fit the setting/faction), the ork half of the book is still breddy fun.
>>98797849Shame, although that tracks with DBD's Drukhari half.
What do you think of the badge for the new chapter I'm planning to make?>name: Star Wolves
>>98797882I think you have a source for custom decal sheets because fuck freehanding that on dozens of pauldrons

>>98797899Fecalfag shitposting
>>98797882Would not be readable on a pauldron, so I'd simplify the design. Also the concept is too similar to Luna Wolves.
>>98797895>because fuck freehanding that on dozens of pauldronsTrue.>>98797896Thanks
>>98797909>Would not be readable on a pauldron, so I'd simplify the design. Ok, I'll see what I can do.>Also the concept is too similar to Luna Wolves.That was the point.
>>98797922Is it a Space Wolf subsidiary?
>>98797882cute and simple symbol, but like >>98797909 the details are too small, and has too much overlap with a traitor legion. I’ll also throw in my two cents that the inclusion of the moon doesn’t even really make sense. they’re meant to be STAR wolves, so their symbol should make the star(s) more prominent.
>>98797929>and has too much overlap with a traitor legionthere's a canon chapter with an ork mouth as their logothere's a canon chapter with the iron warriors logothere's a canon chapter with the word bearers logo
>>98797927>subsidiary this has to be one of the funniest ways I’ve seen a successor chapter described. maybe the individual marines could also be called “associates” while we’re at it.
>>9879792750/50, I haven't really thought about it much.First I design something cool, then I think about the lore.

>>98797929>and has too much overlap with a traitor legion.Nobody said anything about the Wolfspear.
did i pick a bad time to build a sisters of battle army? i have about 3000 pts of stuff

>>98797863Yeah, I'm focusing pretty heavily on the failings of the book but I will reiterate it's a perfectly serviceable, mostly fun ork romp for a pirated audiobook, I just cant recommend paying for it or giving it enough time or respect to actually sit down and read it.

>>98796660i at least had fun kitbashing some crucible models together
>>98798020That was a different time, but besides all of those are more fun concepts than Business Marines where we all larp our droll real world work in fantastical escape setting
I bought some wardogs two years ago and started magnetizing their weapons. never finished the project.. should I still magnetize them or is it less important now. I see CK got access to the amigers as well now, im kinda confused.

>>98798015I've never paid for a 40k book. The one time I thought about it, it sold out before I could even click the link to preorder.>>98798019Really? You're totally fine with the Drukhari's old-enough-to-drink models except for Lilith Haruspex's face? That's what's pushing you into 3D-printer-goes-brrrr?
>>98798021Is that why you took off the trip, because everyone is fine with interacting with you?
>>98798050the lorelet stuff is pretty grim because even aside from being outed as a lorelet he refuses to talk about which books he’s read, or directly quotes any, so in the end even at his best, and giving him the benefit of the doubt that he’s read the books, he just straight up sucks.
>>98797952Isn't that just Ultramarines?
>>98798054How are your hellblasters coming along? Not that you'll get to be on the collage but still. You have enough hobby space in your car?
>>98798038>only one warTECHNICALLY the Rebellion was a bunch of smaller uprisings all coming together into a unified whole, so it could be safely described as multiple wars from the Imperial perspective >its a civil war with the other side being insurgents instead of a proper militaryThat's the case for a lot of wars.
>>98798065Just because a model is old doesn't mean it's bad anon. DE models are all generally fantastic, though I can understand why someone might not like the new Lelith.
>be me>bored>play through the 40k gacha sloppa game cuz it's reasonably entertaining >get to the Eldar storyline>main character is a female autarch. Me being a chud I am ofc I say to myself "the feminist agenda strikes again" but you know it's eldar, they're aliens, and banshees exist, etc>during the story the autarch is constantly arguing with the(also female) ranger in the group because of some greivance from the past, distracting both during the battle. Meanwhile the male farseer has to mediate between them and get them to actually focus on the task at hand, which he foresaw was necessary and has planned out. I love it when stories are accidentally based
Is ultradyke hot? I've never seen pics of her.
>>98797977>well yeah, they kill orks a lot, so it makes sense have their symbolYeah, that's why my loyalists are festooned with the eight-pointed star and various sigils to each chaos god.

>>98798065>I've never paid for a 40k bookYeah I just wanted to set expectations. I bought the Cain omnibus on recommendation from a friend and don't feel like that was a waste of money, but I'd probably be way more negative about Brutal Kunnin if I actually spent money on it
i wish alpha legion actually had models and the shitty resin alpharius wasnt like 150$debating on just picking up a bunch of loyalist marines and buying some chest and shoulder bits and run them with like raven guard rules or would it be cringe to run AL as anything not chaoswould mixing and matching chaos and loyalist marines be cringe model wise?

>>98798133"The Lords of Silence" by Chris Wraight, if you're interested in the particulars. It's excellent.
Do you make all of your marines be the same chapter, anons?Or do you paint specific models as one chapter?I've been wanting to add some terminators to my collection but I don't know if I want to paint them as Salamanders like the rest of my collection or do them as a lesser played chapter.
Someone gonna bake a proper thread or do we use the fucked one
>>98798166I can't imagine spending the money a box of marines costs just to not make them /mydudes/. Besides that, a chapter is a big thing, so until I've painted over a thousand marines I won't worry about running out of space
>>98798116
>>98798177I had picked Salamanders back when I first started and now it feels like sunk cost to not make more stuff be them.I wish I'd gone with a chapter that felt more personal for me.
>>98798171Wdym? What’s wrong with this one?
>>98798184The best time to start painting Your Dudes is yesterday; the second-best time is now.In the mean time, it's not unheard-of for different chapters to do collabs—you can easily make up a reason for the Sallies to borrow a squad of terminators from Your Dudes
>>98798190We're close to image limit
>>98798197>The best time to start painting Your Dudes is yesterday; the second-best time is now.That's true. I think it'd have been a lot easier to get over if I hadn't insisted on using the upgrade shoulders for every single mini like a fool. Because then I could just strip everything and start over.But going forward anything added to my collection will be a different chapter.
>>98798184That's fair desu>>98798203Yeah that does suck. You could... file off the logo?? But that would be time consuming to do well, and repainting everything is sure to be a pita
>>98798203Your Dudes are Salamander successors from the 67th founding who are undermanned because of a bad time with orks or whatever and fight alongside their founding chapter for the time being, or whatever.
>>98798208>>98798216Wait that's actually perfect.I can strip them and do my own color scheme.Thanks for the idea.
