What should I do tomorrow >Paint my minis>Head to GW to get a free sister and maybe try the new paints
>>98804311Try the new paint on your free sister.You'll be annoyed you didn't at the end of the day still wondering if you like the paints.
>>98804290I quite like the double edge highlighting on this one. Perhaps one of my other models I'll try that technique again. >>98804293Yeah. People joke about nuln oil beind liquid skill but it's lowk true, even just spread over flat surfaces the somewhat random dark portions add a 3 dimensional look that is just really nice. I think on my next model I'm going to paint all the colors first, and then wash the entire thing after.
>>98804240>TQSome oil washes can look great, just dont fall for the le grimdark meme and dunk your models in it
I'm torn between making the badguys in /mydudes/ campaign thousand sons, because I like psykers, or iron warriors, because I have autism. What are y'all's thoughts on these two legions? Is one significantly better in your eyes?
>>98804326Do both. Fluff it as a two-pronged offensive by the legions temporarily working together to achieve their own goals while probably scheming to stab each other in the back later.
>>98804326I'm a hipster who prefers minor warbands
>>98803451day of ascensionthe start of deathworlderskitariustitanicus, as mentioneddo NOT read the forges of mars novels, they suck shit
>>98804300>>98804300Yeah you just gotta be sparse with it. Like a glancing hit, you need to do just small strikes.If its fat and thick, no worries. Just put black then metal inside the splatch, and make it look like the paint came off of the armor (the black serves as a "shadow" to give it volume) For chitin do the same but with flesh (or whatever color you used for the flesh) instead of the metal color.Pic rel were mistakes because I put too much paint at first.
Guys, guys, guess what? I like orks :D
Maybe I could do a diorama of a dead hellblaster in a car in winter. That's spooky right?
>>98804334Yeah, that can work fine I suppose, but the problem with that is that idk if there's any way to build an army like that and I would like to make an actual army for them eventually >>98804338Such as?
>>98804357Iron Warriors and TS both serve in the black legion so yeah, it works if you paint them up in BL, but minor heraldry hints to their OG legions.
>>98804354Maybe you could jump off a bridge and film it for our entertainment
>>98804367Ouch, why so hostile?
>>98804361Well sure but is there some sort of detachment setup that lets you get more units from other csm factions like with demons? Because purely based on the list of datasheets it seems like the only actual tson unit you can take is rubricae
>>98804369Shut your trap and stay on topic
>>98804379Isn't discussion of a diorama on topic though? If anything a death threat out of nowhere is off topic, no?
>>98804385A death threat? Nice reading comprehension dick head. Now like I said keep your trap shut.
>>98804354Sounds like a good idea. What car were you thinking? One of the Ork trunks or buggies or a modern looking model car?
Are there any sisters of battlechads online that can take a look at my sisters list? It's the army I'm currently building to take to a game next week......
>>98804390Don’t talk to yourself, it’s pathetic.
>>98804397Why are you so angry
>>98804392Sorry, everybody dropped Sisters until they get a codex. This is an Orks, Marines, and Custodes thread only for now
>>98804392General advice I've absorbed from the SoB bros:1 Castigator/1k pointsVahl + warsuits are a must.Dominions in immolators are fantastic.You need some chaff to die like flagellents.
>>98804397I'm not? I was responding to an anon's diorama idea.
>>98804406Next time keep your mouth shut instead of trying to get cute, lesson learned eh?
>>98804390I was thinking a random shitty model car of appropriate size
How is this still the latest 40k 'article' after a week
>>98804413What are you even talking about?
>>98804407dang. i made my sisters army to kill space marines specifically >>98804408hmm, I'll have to drop one of my named characters then for chaff. thanks anon
>>98804392Just post it.
>>98804421Sure thing anon, here's what I'm building based on the models I currently have:Imperium - Adepta Sororitas - BringersofFlame, SacredChampionsIntranzia Fraye (135pts)Junith Eruita (105pts)Morvenn Vahl (215pts)Hospitaller (65pts)Hospitaller (75pts)10x Celestian Sacresants (150pts)10x Celestian Sacresants (150pts)10x Dominion Squad (110pts)10x Dominion Squad (110pts)Castigator (165pts)Castigator (165pts)Exorcist (180pts)3x Paragon Warsuits (195pts)Immolator (115pts)Sororitas Rhino (65pts)
>>98804375I can only recall the 500pt allied CSM unit rule, but for IW this isn't really a problem. IW are rather generic, IIRC; it's just their paint scheme that is different. As for TS, just proxy their sorcerers as regular Chaos sorcerers and bring some rubricae.
>>98804415Because it has been an AoS/HH/ToW/BB/KT/UW/LotR/Munda week? That does happen from time to time.And remember GW has no 40K releases planned for the next 3 months besides the holiday combo boxes and probably a kill team.
Please stop replying to the b8
>>98804419If you can’t understand basic English sentences then there’s nothing I can do for you little chimp.
>>98804426What disposition/detachments are you planning to try to play? Because that will influence how viable your options are.
>>98804432Okay buddy
>>98804414That sounds good. Would be a fun detail to have a hole rusted through the roof with the snow starting to creep into the car.>>98804413Don't try to talk about minis or some random anon will throw a tantrum?
>>98804427I guess 500pts is enough to fit in SOTs which is what I would really want...
>>98804426Yeah, you'll be fine, that's basically an all-star of the current sister meta units. Could probably drop Fraye to upgrade the rhino into another immolator and some random chaff like arco-flagellants, that'd get you a more sacrifical units (since you can split another dominion unit), but I don't think it's necessary.
>>98804437You don’t have any models
>>98804444I'm literally painting some right now.
>>98804440Jesus what is your problem
>>98804447You
>>98804449What? Why?
>>98804451Don’t try and act innocent now
>>98804433it says at the top anonbringers of flame and sacred champions it gives all my sisters assault/ +1S within 6" and gives my sacresants +1 bs and ws... as for disposition I was going to use take and hold to leverage my two bricks to sit on an objective and tar pit it all game>>98804442i was thinking the same thing honestly. I only run her because she looks really cool and does a butt ton of damage. next time I go by my flgs I'll probably pick up another immolator and a castigator since I'm running my second exorcist as a proxy for it in the mean time.do you have any tips for how I am supposed to pilot this list? I've never played sisters before only space marines and custodes
>>98804447Just stop responding to him. He's trolling you.
>>98804458Yea listen to your friend here
Some real energy matching going on right here
>>98804465You started it with your snide little comment about the car and dying in winter, don’t act surprised when I finish it.
>>98804441The more I think about it the more divided my thoughts are. I also quite enjoy the concept of night lords, and Emperor's Children are at least interesting. However above all else my problem with Chaos isn't the lore but the aesthetics, thousand sons are just about the only csm that I can stand to look at for more than a few minutes. Quite the dilemma indeed.
>>98804467You're acting real tough online. Drive your house to mine and we'll see what happens.
>>98804468no love for world eaters or black legion?
Space marines they ain't what they used to beAin't what they used to beAin't what they used to be
>>98804453Ok, so you have effectively 5 sacrifice pieces, stuff you don't mind losing. Those are the dominions (with one being split by the immolator), the immolator and the rhino. The castigators and exorcists can also do the job in a pinch but you kinda really want them doing work so trading them away without getting a return is bad. Sacresancts are bulky as shit but will go down to a determined opponent (and they fucking hate AP-1 bolters, repulsors and the like are a pain for them) and anyone with good melee characters will precision out the hospitallers asap. You have an absolutely vicious counterpunch with Vahl and the Castigators, so you'll want to leverage that.You start the game by putting dominions on the central objective and your own expansion, utilize hidden to force your opponent forward while keeping the rest of your army safe (Vahl especially, she's crucial) and the Sacresancts ready to move up (if anyone wants to gas into them while they're hidden that's fine). Depending on what they have, they might need to commit something real to clear dominions and a transport. If they don't have to, you put the Sacresancts forward and that WILL require a real response which you can then punish. If they have to, you can start punching back with Castigators. Keep Vahl back until you absolutely need her, she's the backbreaker, if she can take out their best response to her she'll rampage and kill one or two units every turn for the rest of the game and that usually wins you the game.
>>98804473I think hes only interested in gay traitor legions
>>98804467It's just a meme about hellblasters. Why are you taking it so seriously? Nothing worth getting mad about.
>>98804465Did the OP pic of an anime girl holding a hellblaster set someone off or is some autist just having a bad day and wants to vent?
>>98804473I don't really like world eaters because they are a perfect example of the "raaah all spikes and evil stuff" aesthetic I don't like, and their backstory lowk bores me to death. As for black legion, they're just chaos ultramarines so idgaf>>98804477There aren't any straight traitor legions anon
>>98804475They look the same.
>>98804484Yeah someone is really defensive about hellblasters
>>98804491What? Bro chill
>>98804484Its not even the decalfag anymore, just another roleplaying shitposter
>>98804495Oh I’m chill as a cucumber
>>98804476Thanks anon I'm going to screencap this post to look at for my first game. Do you have any other general or specific tips/strategies I should know? I really appreciate the help I'm feeling alot less scared facing the space wolves now>>98804477shame i like the daemons and shiet >>98804488well I dont think there's any chaos units you'll like then except maaaaybe tzeench daemons and huron blackheads guys. (I forget their name) the whole evil raah daemon thing is chaos's whole bit
>>98804497It really doesn't come off that way
>>98804496You’re not getting a 3rd timestamp and my next model post will be my finished hellblasters, you can weep then.
>>98804500I’m sorry that you feel that way
>>98804500Maybe he confuses cucumbers and chilli peppers
>>98804499Well, yeah that's the problem. I think some of the traitor legions have interesting stories but the aesthetics aren't for me Of course, if I go with iron warriors(or even alpha legion) since they aren't as big on the whole "getting possessed by horrors" deal I could just paint regular marines the right color and give them close-enough weapons
>>98804502Why would anyone weep about hellblasters?
>>98804514those two are probably your best bet like you mentioned. are you dead set on getting space marines though? maybe a xenos faction might also be cool
So how long does it take to finish a squad of hellblasters?
>>98804524At least a year.
>>98804525How long in a car?
>>98804524you can finish a squad of 5 in a few hours and a box of 10 in twice that
>>98804499No plan survives contact with the enemy, so always be ready to be flexible and adjust on the fly if something doesn't go as planned. Sometimes Vahl might have to do that cleanse action rather than gun down a transport, sometimes your opponent gets a god roll on their saves (if you're facing space wolves, expect a ton of 4+ invulns, they love their storm shields) and you should be ready to adjust, especially early game when you still have plenty of resources.As for specific tips... Castigators can apply their bonus AP with any weapon, so shooting all their real guns at something you want to kill and the storm bolter at the next target in line to get the AP for the next Castigator is how you want to do it. Precision requires line of sight to the character *model*, and while you usually can't avoid it, always try and keep your Hospitallers out of LoS from enemy characters (any space wolf character will butcher a hospitaller with ease) by tucking them in corners and behind walls. They've got those irritating fuckhueg bases so it's tricky, but often doable and keeping them alive makes a huge difference in how Sacresancts operates, since they're very difficult to actually wipe out, and respawning even a few is a huge pain in the ass for most opponents because dealing with them after your counterpunch is much harder.
>>98804527Have you tried joining the discord? Its a lot better.
>>98804527I don't know anon you're the one who sounds like he's miserable judging from your posts
>>98804324>Some oil washes can look great, just dont fall for the le grimdark meme and dunk your models in itHave the normies started making fun of this stupid reduction of the grimdark painting and blanchitsu "style?"
>>98804537Hang on, are you PERMANENTLY BANNED from that one as well?
>>98804522Well I might well never actually build the army because I have several others I want to do but with the way the story for my main guys is going I want to have at least one major campaign against each of the main faction types. I already have plans for them to fight with my Eldar over some sacred artefacts and for them to have a civil war against some sororitas and guard elements due to them being false flagged so that just leaves a proper chaos army to round things out, and frankly demons are even worse in the "horrifically ugly" department than the marines so
>>98804537I've been enjoying some hearty chuckles at the antics.
>>98804554He says after playing armchair psychologist
>>98804531tysm for this useful advice anon. my 1st game with them is on tuesday vs space wolves. I'll try to do a detailed bat rep when I get back home. go luck in all your future games king>>98804547it might be best to get iron warrior or some loyalist sculpts and just paint them as /your dudes/ using whatever rules you want. you can easily have renegade space marines that aren't chaosfags if you want to go that route>>98804548lmao based this is hilarious anon
just a tip, you need to use more weird and archaic insults if you're going to imitate the decalsloppersprinkle in some facebook reaction gifs too

>>98804306That is a good dirtied up marine with the dirtying done right.Oddly enough I feel more drawn to the base because of the green glow.

But first I need to find the kind of decal paper that works with printers
I love Iron Hands but man why the fuck do they have two have two opposite contrast colours of Black and white, fucking BS
>>98804594I thought Iron Hands were black and silver trim. What are the Iron Hands supposed to be besides being the loyalist counterpart of Iron Warriors? When it comes to being brutal?
>>98804594this is why successor chapters exist
>>98804594paint them metallic black, not black, and paint the white over cream
>>98804594Iron hands what a joke
>>98804603t. imperial fists calm down corpse worshiping fag iron warriors are based
>>98804597They are a tri colour of Black (metallic black or pure black) with Silver/Dark metal trims and white for gun casing. >>98804599Thats what Im doing, the metal black looks better than normal black. Didn't think of the cream so might give that a go>>98804603>Iron hands what a jokePic related. Post chapter or be known as the decalfag

Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
>>98804354that would be cool, having it be space wolves would be awesome too, gives off the idea of the winter being so fierce even a son of fenris perished to it. probably would be good to have it be a van, so you can get a good shot of the dead hellblaster. a funny bonus would be to have a bunch of epic scale minis covered in a wash surrounding him

>>98804763XD
>>98804763HES OUT OF CONTROLHES GOING INSANE
>>98804648D4 is good, D2 is good if you can spread it out across activations, they have a strat (assuming they play the codex terminator detachment which seems exceedingly likely) for -1d for an activation for terminators. If you have some way to ignore modifiers (wolf guard are -1 to wound) that's also useful. Be ready for Rapid Ingress.

Thread slop
Redpill me on Sisters of Battle anons? Do actual women (female) play this army or is it all trannies and faggots? I see one anon in these threads posting pics often.
>>98804808Women who actually play collect tyranids. Women who have sisters are 'my boyfriend wanted to do this so I guess I should'-types.
Is horus heresy dead? I was waiting for them to give us plastic 30k primarchs but at this point i might aswell buy Ferrus Manus
>>98804808They're the faction played by trannies because they're what they think women play. Women actually like "gross cute" armies like Tyranids and Death Guard, followed by Orks and dark elves.
>>98804815I dunno ask /hhg/
>>98804808The one anon that posts about her sisters army is a middle aged cat lady lesbian anon. And before you ask no she isn't hot. She is a brown American muttoid.
>>98804821> ask in the echo chamber if their game is deadid rather have a take from anons who arent huffing copium
>>9880482638 isn't middle aged I'm still young!
>>98804415Because GW occasionally remembers they make things besides Marines.
>>98804815The current edition is. Most leagues I know stayed with 2.0 or 1.0 and just back port stuff they like. The cross-compatibility for 40K with Custodes is to prop 3.0’s sales up.
>>98804837This is a space marine world, your puny xenos armies exist so we have something to kill. we fund your entire faction.rememeber to say thank you to your space marine chad overlords.
>>98804849dunno, ask /hhg/
>>98804415they have another week of no-meat things to say about custodes and then they can lay low till winter preview
>>98804848The way GW has handled HH is impressive in how poorly they did itThe fact over half the models are still resin when they could have made easy cash from redoing them in plastic is wild.
>>98804855And throwing out a ton of customization in the Customization game was a choice. Unless you play Militia like me, then you just got some of the best written army rules in 3.0 for some reason. I think they and Solar Aux are the only ones who gained stuff in the new edition.
>>98804849You have that in reverse marinefag. Your paypig subscription faction exists to give xenosGODS a satisfying won from your training wheels army.
>>98804426If you drop the 2nd Sact unit + hospitaller for one unit of Insidiants you can get another immolator + 90pts to spare.
>>98804862Its honestly why i never got into it, sure you can easily buy the generic models, but any legion specific stuff and almost all of it is out of stock.your only option for buying older kits is basically 3rd party 3d printers.
>>98804867Oh yeh? how is that Ynari/Yvraine plotline going for you eldar?You will never get all the swords, slaanesh will eternally rape your souls.
>>98804874It’s definitely a game that throws a hobby knife at your feet and says “make it yourself”
>>98804867I like everything about this pic except the thighs.They put so much effort into the ass and rest of the body but those thighs just look like sticks.They need some meat on them.

>>98804949No, if your not financially stable you shouldnt be wasting money on plastic miniatures.

>>98804949Jesus christ do not do this. Be responsible. When you sell it in 2 months know miniswap or eBay you will still have payments to make on it cause you will sell at a loss. Show some fucking self control
>>98804917Nah I like the list I have well enough and honestly don't want to drop another 200+$ on buying a castigator (I'm proxying the second one) and an immolator along with building them also when I dont have to.Beside this is a list for casual pickup games at the lgs not tourneyfagging

Who painting at work here?
>>98805056they let you paint at mcdonalds?
>>98805056lol.
>>98805056I used to but my boss caught me so now I can’t
>>98805056I only do it between Christmas and new years when everyone else is taking vacation time.
>new painted that came up with a cool color scheme>told it requires me to "ink" stuff to get the desired colorthe fuck is inking
>>98805155Never heard of it
>>98805155UGHH WTF IS THIS HOBBYLET HOURS?
Post models
>>98805164Let’s see your models so we can judge you appropriately
>>98805163well I was told I need to pink ink to make copper paint look like rose gold.>>98805164sorry for being a newfag nigga.
I just remembered that lion el johnson came back from the dead and did literally, not metaphorically, nothing for two books and then stopped being mentioned
>>98805155You have a base layer or 'underpaint' that is a certain color. You then use an ink (basically a very transparent pigment that tends to stain, you can also just use a very thin glaze) that goes overtop, and the interaction between the underpaint and ink gives you a color that otherwise would be very difficult to mix or it gives you a "depth".
>>98805180They have great fear of messing up on important characters so they leave them untouched for long stretches.
>>98805181Thanks bro. Spent hours coming up with a cool color scheme for my guys as was worried I wouldn't be able to paint them the way I want.
>Ramblin' Snappers are powerful and resilient creatures, that can be found on many worlds, especially Death Worlds.>They are known to adapt well to their environments and despite the Snappers' size, the creatures are unusually stealthy. When they attack, their favourite tactic is to build up a little speed before charging at their prey. The Snappers will then trample their victims beneath their bulk and then use their massive razor-sharp claws to tear their prey apart. However the creatures are rather clumsy due to their bodies being very top heavy, which can be used against them. Guardsmen who have enough time to notice a Snapper's attack, can usually dodge the creatures' initial charge and are able to kill them before the Snappers can attack again
>>98805193What an awful looking model
>>98805193>Kromlok Danglers are exceptionally dangerous winged creatures, that are found on the mountain regions of Kromlok, which they are named after.>They hide in the mountains, during the day, but once Kromlok's sun sets, the swift Danglers use their exceptional vision to begin hunting for food. The creatures do so in complete silence, even when they descend and skewer their prey with a barb extended from the Danglers' torsos. They have quick reflexes and rely on hit and run attacks to kill their prey. If the victim is small enough, though, the creatures can quite often use their momentum to lift the prey up into the air and use the remains to feed their young. The largest Dangler killed to date was measured at 5 metres and is estimated to have been able to carry approximately 65 kg. However as not many of the Danglers have been killed, it is difficult to estimate how large the creatures can be. Though as men larger than that have gone missing on Kromlok, it can be assumed that much larger Danglers prowl the world's mountains
>>98805180It's even funnier when people it ruined 40k because 40k is now primarch wank and only focuses on them.
>>98805198>The Arenea Stalker is a zero-G armoured arachnid, that dwells on the asteroid TK421, which drifts between systems in the Mordant Zone.>It was discovered by the crew of an Adeptus Mechanicus Mining Barge, that was sent to harvest TK421's resources. The Servitors assigned to the Barge, then proceeded to create a lattice of tunnels within the asteroid, which allowed the Arenea Stalker to cast its webbing to drift in the tunnels' zero gravity atmosphere. This then led to twenty Servitors being caught by the Stalker, along with the two Tech-Adepts who went searching for them. They were all then drained of their blood by the creature and only the Servo-Skull accompanying the Adepts escaped this fate. It later returned to the Mining Barge with the video recording of the Arenea Stalker, which provided proof of the creature's existence
>>98805201>Debilithraxes are scorpion-like burrowing creatures, that dwells beneath the deserts of Erakeen and emerge to attack prey, before quickly sinking back underground with the remains.>They have a tough armoured body with the head of a Lictor, along with eight legs that end in translucent tan claws and a whip-like tail that has poison filled barbs. Debilithraxes have the ability to sense prey above ground and use their quick reflexes to emerge and strike them with their tail. The creatures' poison quickly kills Humans and the attacks are so silent, that the only noise Debilithraxes make before they strikes is the rustling of sand as they emerge from the ground. This is followed by the death cries of their victims, and a swish of sand as the remains are pulled underground. This causes craters to be formed in the sand, which are the only evidence that is left behind of the Debilithraxes' attacks. The creatures are also capable of pulling entire tents underground as well.
>>98805200Primarch central story/setting, play something else if you don’t like it.
newfag asking a dumb questionAre primarchs like, necessary for an army? Would it be weird if someone liked an army but didn't care for the primarchMagnus is kind of a fuckup and that's the entire point of the character, he failed a test and thought it nobler to let his legion die to preserve his fading dignity
>>98805205>Leaping Thornsnakes are horned, burrowing creatures, that are considered to be a degenerated form of the Tyranids' Ravener species.>They can be found on a variety of worlds in the Eastern Fringe and attack by springing out of the ground and launching razor-sharp needles from their heads. The Thornsnakes will then use their quick reflexes to propel themselves into the air with their powerful tails, as the creatures leap to close in on their prey. They are deadly threats to Imperial colonists and explorers, as the Thornsnakes remain unnoticed until it is far too late to escape the creatures' grasp unscathed
>>98805208Yes it would be very weird to play thousand suns if you didn’t care for Magnus
>>98805211>The Dakkarian Brain Slug are parasitic creatures, that are found in the dense jungles of Dakkar.>They turn their prey into puppets after directly attaching themselves to a host's nervous system. This is done by breaking the dermal layer of skin on the back of the host's skin, where the creatures feed themselves on their victims' blood. Once under the Slugs' control, the hosts become the creatures' puppets and can move even when dealt deadly wounds, that would normally kill them. When the Slugs are directly threatened, though, the parasites can also hide within the opening they made, and then extend a small breathing tube out so they can pass undetected amongst uninfected creatures. Combined with the ability to quickly change hosts, regardless of their size, Brain Slugs are possibly the most insidious and deadliest creatures Dakkar has to offer. There are even persistent rumours that the parasites have sought to gain passage off-world by purposely attaching themselves to Imperials destined for Astra Militarum Conscript Barges. However even the slightest hint of a Brain Slug infestation, will have Guardsmen with flamers unleashed to cleanse entire Conscript contingents. Though given the parasites' abilities to quickly hide or infest different hosts, it is near impossible to ensure that a Brain Slug infestation has been completely eliminated.
>>98805215>Gorzal Swamp Lurkers are massive spiked and heavily armoured creatures, that are found in the desolate swamps of Gorzal.Most of their enormous bulk remains hidden under Gorzal's clouded waters, and the Lurkers use their crab-like legs, which end in tentacle-claws, to move across the Swamp World's surface. Only the creatures' many-eyed ocular stalks jut from the water, as they do so and search for prey. When some come within range of the creatures, the Lurkers burst forth and use their large, bladed arms to skewer the prey, before the creatures drag the remains down into their mouths. The Lurkers also has the ability to regenerate any damage they suffer as well. Worse still, it is not unheard of to encounter specimens that are 120 metres in length and some claim they have narrowly survived encounters with Lurkers that are three times that size.
>>98805221>Brood Crawlers are nimbly armoured clawed creatures, that are believed to be a hybrid of a Termagant and Carnifex.>Since they no eyes, the Brood Crawlers must instead rely on the natural sonar within their massive claws to sense both attackers and prey, as well as to propel their movement. These claws are also the main way the creatures feed themselves, as while they have extremely sharp teeth, the Brood Crawlers' claws, short necks and small mouths get in the way of the creatures using them. The creatures way of solving this problem, is to chop up their prey into pieces and then tossing the remains into their mouths. However when drawback that the Brood Crawlers have, is that they are rather slow-witted
>>98805225>The Horrors of Icthiam are psychic parasites that may be descended from the Tyranids' Zoanthrope species.>By themselves, the Horrors are weak and can barely move on their own using their psychic powers. However the parasites are able to send out a telepathic call that is heard by weak-willed Humaniods, who the Horrors convince that it is in their best interest to work with the creatures. Those Humanoids that fall under the Horrors' sway become physically connected by the back of their heads to the parasites, through the creatures' long tendril, and becomes their slaves. The creatures are then able to fully control theirs hosts and feed on their victims' psychic energy. Once empowered, the Horrors give off a fearful presence and are able to use their hosts' energy to fire mental blasts and also augment their slave's strength when necessary.
>>98805230>Shelled Slashers are deadly, burrowing shelled creatures, that are native to the Imperial Desert World Drisdan III.>As Drisdan III is in the projected path of Hive Fleet Leviathan, it is believed that the Shelled Slasher was originally a Tyranid seed-creature from the Hive Fleet, that landed on the Desert World. They have since adapted to their new harsh environment, as the Shelled Slashers' hard carapace shells and heavily armoured bodies protect them from Drisdan III's punishing sandstorms. These same physical abilities, however, have made the creatures a threat to the Imperial population that dwells there. Among the reasons for this, is that the Shelled Slasher' shells resemble Drisdan III's Sandcrab creatures, which make them difficult to identify, especially when they are partially buried beneath sand. When they are found, though, their bodies are able to resist harm from most conventional weapons and the creatures become particularly difficult to kill, once the Shelled Slashers pull nearly 90% of their bodies beneath their shells. The Shelled Slasher is also a deadly combatant, as they explode from the ground and rush towards their prey in a flurry of razor-sharp talons and vicious head-butts
>>98805232>Colossus>Or Zoats. A centaur-like race aboard Hive Fleet Colossus. Bore many similarities to other Tyranid Hive Fleets, but had obviously encountered unique environs and thus evolved differently. Chief among these strange traits were their ability to use normal Tyranid weapon-symbiotes (although it seems that equipping themselves with these bio-armaments is quite painful), and the unique talent of communicating telepathically with other organisms. Although the Colossi claimed to be slaves escaping some unnamed oppressor, these aliens turned on Imperial forces. Thus began the xenocidal 50-year Zorastra-Attila wars that ended with the destruction of the entire Hive Fleet Colossus.
>>98805214Fuck it I'll play them anyways and just make Ahriman my armies leader instead
>>98805237/
>>98805208Necessary gameplay wise? Not entirely but primarchs/daemon primarchs are some of the most efficient centerpieces in the game. They have retarded killing power and are usually extremely bulky. Because the daemon primarchs are so big you can expect them to get focus fired by multiple squads a turn which usually benefits you as it makes your softer units a smaller target. Lore wise? Pretty much all of the traitor legions ended up hating their primarch for being a retard that ruins everything. Thousand sons in particular is very decentralized so you can give your dudes whatever lore you want.
>>98805208I play Death Guard; hate Mortarion. I don't own the model and never will.
Hmm…how do I turn a wraith into a defiler for a tzeentch army
>>98805056I used to do it with a coworker, used to spray primer and applied basecoats during lunch-break.
The new marine codes explicitly describe Ultramar as an "empire",
>>98805309Was it not always such?
>>98805284nigga a wraith is 50 mm base>>98805287nigga is you spraypainting in the cafeteria
>>98805314IIRC, it's been called a realm or an empire within an empire.
>>98805319nigga we had a huge-ass garden near some old ruins
>>98805063I recognize those bolts. I'm memorizing your coordinates right as I write this.
>>98805314>>98805321It said "The empire of ultramar" which is a peculiar wording.
>>98805319The wraith knight
>>98805332Well Guilliman is such an ebin guy that by the time the Emperor found him he already had established an empire of his, after their reunion Ultramar joined the Imperium.
>>98805206My point is that there basically isn't any primarch wank even in modern 40k.Like the other anon said, Lion came back and it was kind of a big thing, but then after it he has done actually nothing.Hard to call the setting "primarch wank" when most books don't even mention them.
>>98805338It really was like that for a while, thoughmortarion and magnus and gulliman and everything revolving around them for like seven years straight
I got 10% coupon and I can use it on a box under 100 buckswhat should I get between huronmutilatorwrecka klew?
>>98805345What do you need the most?
>>98805351well I guess all of themI mean huron is nice but I think i could play without himso does mutilator and kravek where my ork army isnt even up to 1k cause I only just got the launch box split + 10 extra grotsso I will probably want all of them
>>98805257>Pretty much all of the traitor legions ended up hating their primarch Night Lords can't stop sucking theirs off
>>98805342>It really was like that for a while, thoughYeah, for like 2-3 books which were years apart and after that GW hasn't done shit.And that's 2-3 books out of like over DOZEN books. Again, you can't call that primarch wank. It's like calling modern 40k admech wank just because there's a techpriest in lik 1 or 2 books.
>>98805280>hating the coolest model in 40kNGMI
>>98805372It’s a fat marine Wow
>>98805367books and the starter set plots and the campaign plots
>muh lore is this>muh lore is thatI like GSC having only barebones for a lore, maybe a mini a two in an edition and that's about it.
>>98804426I'm the anon who told you the 1 Castigator per 1k points thing yesterday.This list is completely serviceable, but also "top-heavy" for lack of a better term (ie if your Sacresants don't do their job, the whole thing topples over). You'll have success if you position well and get lucky on dice.If you want to expand and revise later, the avenues I'd suggest are:>another Immolator for your 2nd Dominions squad>1 unit of Celestian Insidiants (or two, but 1 should be enough)>at least 1 unit of Sisters Novitiate>1 unit of 5 Zephyrim and a Jump Pack Canoness>at least 1 each of some of the generic characters (prioritize a Jump Pack Canoness, Dialogus and Imagifier; Palatine can be really good as well in Hallowed Martyrs)>1 unit of Repentia or Arco-FlagellantsAnd if you REALLY want to get into SoB to the point of dedicating 17.25% of your entire army cost to having miracle dice all be 6:>Triumph of Saint Katherine and a Battle Sisters squadIt would also be a good idea to play around in the theorycrafting side with other detachments. Hallowed Martyrs is very good as a 3DP option, and Chorus of Condemnation makes a 2x Exorcist list viable (assuming you also have a bunch of jump pack units). The way I've seen Chorus used is either with Bringers of Flame or Army of Faith; I'd lean AoF between the two personally.No I have not tried the 2x Exorcist list because I do not own 2 Exorcists nor enough Zephyrim to make that list worth it, but it seems to math out well enough.
>>98805375He's just big boned
>>98805372it's too overdesigned for my tastes
>>98805396You have extremely poor artistic taste then
>>98805200nta but both are true.
what is turn 1 tony?
>>98805386They die regardless of the outcome, we chose the most cucked faction
>>98805407nah, my tastes are sublime, it's mortarion that barely even fits in his own army let alone the wider style of 40k minis
>>98805372Where is articulation?It's not a miniature.
>People bashing their Primarchs when mine hasn’t even reappeared from the Warp yet.. it’s not fair bros
>>98805372>exists to babysit Defilers
>>98805428fuck off
>>98805428As an Iron Warriors player since Storm of Iron, I hope they never ever make a Perturabo mini. Kravek Morne is already toeing the line in too much named character (he should have been a generic Warsmith datasheet and they just use his name in the story).
>>98805362all traitor legions with /alive/ prims hate them. remembering dead hope is easier than keeping it alive
>>98805193>>98805198>>98805201>>98805205>>98805225>>98805230>>98805232>>98805237Cool stuff anon, thanks for sharing!
anyone playing eldar/deldar post SM codex? I played a lot early in the edition but my last game was august 1st and I have one this weekend. I imagine all the same things we have that kill marines still kill marines but 20% worse when they only went up 10%? is that about right? how have you changed your lists, if at all? I also haven’t decided to bring craftworlders or dark eldar yet if anyone wants to pull me one way or the other
>>98804949>financing plan for clumps of plasticthe absolute state of (You)
>>98805432Excuse me you fuck? >>98805438He’s coming bro and you will love him
>>98805459We got the Defiler as the big centerpiece model and it was fucking awesome, love it bigly. Don't need another.
>>98805428Aww poor widdle baybee, I'm sure EVERYTHING is gonna change when your Gluppion Shitticus returns to go be irrelevant in a corner like all the others.
>>98805372One of the worst models GW has put out and that's saying something.
>>98805474He’s not gonna like you saying that when he returns >>98805479>t.Xeno ball gargler
>>98805428permanent means permanent
>marinefags
>>98805485>>t.Xeno ball garglerthat implies you self identify as a primarch ball gargler
>>98805485>don't you heckin DARE make fun of my wholesome chungus capeshit bigger marine!I find it incredibly ironic that primarchfags cry about xenos when primarchs are just human colored ork warbosses.
>>98805491No it doesn’t and you can’t shame me into not liking a good show piece model or centerpiece if you will
>>98805496Nta but primarchs are based even if only in their ability to make you seethe just by existing
>I am the Blood Angel! BLEH!
>>98805499>you can’t shame me into not liking a good show piece model or centerpiece if you willDude, just buy yourself a good anime girl figurine
>>98805499>No it doesn’t and you can’t shame meOh I can kink shame you alright, leman ball polisher
>>98805496Half the reason we adore them is because of how much seething and retching the Xenofems do over them
>>98805418It's not death exactly, they become one with the tyranid hivemind, ontological monism nigga
>>98805507I actually purchased a fem Magnus model just to have power over her.
>>98805505Are there any Blood Angel chapters that lean more into the vampire look?I guess you could mix them with Night Lords bits to make them look more vampiric. I think it'd be cool.
>>98805511So they have no value on their own.What a weird thing to gush over something because of the imaginary reaction of others.Have you been doing hrt?
>>98804297Stop replying to me
>>98805516>Are there any Blood Angel chapters that lean more into the vampire look?Blood Drinkers I suppose
>>98805520Kek you’re still doing it, it’s like I have mind control over a nigga.
>>98805527Can you repeat that without having a pair of balls in your mouth?
>>98805491I don't think xenos have balls to gargle
>>98805479Primarchs are far from being glup shittos, anon. But the irrelevant corner is definitely where they'll be shoved in after their model reveal with a campaign and a BL book.
>>98805516Yes.>Knights of Blood>Angels Encarmine>Flesh Eaters>BLOOD DRINKERSall lean super hard into the meme
>>98805504>>98805511So angy!
>>98805544hes still going lmao
>>98805544We have testosterone and don’t inject ourselves with estrogen like Xenofems so yes we sometimes get “angy”
>>98805511>anon would like his faction half as much if he didn't have made up women collecting xenos living rent free in his head in disgust of him
wait how do Tyranids reproduce? is there any canon answer? eggs or live births? gotta be eggs, right? since 'nids don't have any tits to nurse.
>>98805549Any and every possible method depending on the need.But the most fundamental method is a huge queen inside the main hive ship birthing fully formed creatures or eggs or larvae
>>98805547your post reeks of insecurities 50 bucks you have taken a blood test to check for your testosterone levels and you're lower than 95% of people in your country
>>98805563Even if they were that low(they’re not) it would still embarrass your levels and be like comparing a bull shark to termite.
>>98805549natural cloning. This is the standard for them
>>98805557>inside the main hive shipTyranids make space ships? How? They don't seem like the type of race to have the engineers and blue-collar workers necessary for such a venture.
>>98805573like mitosis?
>>98805574What corner of the internet did you sneak in from?
>>98805533They're optional extras
>>98804240
>>98805563My globules are powerful and virile
>>98805574Oh he new new
>>98805574The ships are living organisms too if that makes you understand how they operate better.
>>98805372I hate Mortarion as a character and I refuse to put a Primarch or really any giant centerpiece model on the table.
>>98805485we fucking transformers now chaosbroshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QdtmP9VOPAc
>>98805605Based
>>98805574>How?We've never actually seen how they get a ship from the planet into space, generally they keep them in space and I guess they also reproduce them in space, but they have organisms that can reach the atmosphere by making use of wings and psychic levitation and low-density gases, and we have had planetbound crashed swarms recover their losses and build a new fleet from zero, so chances are they do have a space program for growing a ship on a planet and getting it to fly or growing it in space from the ground, somehow.
>>98805372I still don't get why they gave him those wings and made him fly on the ALWAYS UGLY sculpted smoke effectyeah sure the epic model had wings but it was also the grim reaper, not a fat space marine with tattered wingsImagine how much better he'd look with a stoic pose on the ground instead of jumping around (the death guard are noted for their spryness and mobility, after all)
>>98805605Cringe big models are cool sonetimesLike monolith
>>98805615ships don't go from planet to space, as a rulesometimes hive ships crash or deliberately land, but they're not suited for it, like a deep sea fishthe traditional story is the feeding ships simply stay in orbit and drop down feeding towers, or if you want to take a VERY slightly more realistic take the smokestack terrain things make the atmosphere polluted with biological matter that they eat up by skimming the atmosphere again and again until they've swallowed it all
Do you think Custodes might be a little TOO elite now? Are they even really an army anymore?
>>98805580no, like parthenogenesis
>>98805605>hates any centerpiece modelbro Daemon Lords are the best part of daemons
>>98805616nigga he ain't a fucking elfdari doing a backflip, he's a flying brick
>>98805624>ships don't go from planet to spaceI know, but in at least one case they must have done so because the ghorala swarm, or some shit like that, was shot down onto a planet and is said to have grown a new fleet from the swarm on the planet.
>>98805628then they should have reflected that in the pose instead of making him float sedately
>>98805625I haven't played against the new custodes yet but I always come down on the side of hysteria and panic. Nerf custodes NOW!What boils my piss is you have this elite army that requires 50% or more of your army to kill a single unit but they also move 8", have advance and charge or redeploys and turn 1 ingress. Like FUCK YOU that should be a weakness of a force like this
>>98805547>marines>testosteroneLiterally pick one
>>98805642I think the hyper eliteness is the weakness of the army now mate. 9 activations a turn is going to leave you spread thin even if they can do everything well.
Update on >>98780105. Hellblasters ready. Next to some plasma stuff I already had. I also went ahead and threw together a list to use them. The detachment where you get sustained hits the turn you hop out of a transport is pretty funny for them, so I also went ahead and did it for a melta squad too. And Sternguard in an impulsor. Sustained 1 melta and plasma seems funny.Also 12 of the new size marines piling out of an old rhino is a goofy clown car.

>>98805625NahI always err on the side of too much versus too littleBecause I’m not a lil bitch like yall niggas
>>98805651I think the unga bunga basic bitch monkey option is actually the high test option most of the time
>>98805667What does this even mean in context?
>>98805654The other side of that is how fast you can kill your opponent to prevent him from doing the actions he needs.You don't have to max out your score, you have to minimize your opponent's score by preventing him from being able to do actions in the first place. Custodes are still rather good at this task, even with so few models on the table.
>>98805675It means custodes being super elite is better than them not being elite enoughI would rather something be fucked up too far in the direction of “flavor” then be fucked up in the direction of not enough
>>98805651I could arm wrestle you 1 arm vs 2 and snap your twig bones in a heart beat sonny

>>98805726Doesn’t matter I used to be shredded and built like a Mack truck but yes I’ve let myself go over the years.
>>98805736>I used to be shredded and built like a Mack truckIn your dreams?
>>98805736In my experience people who say shit like this are lifelong powershitters who never even once approached “shredded” but because they were strong and they had the vague outline of a 4pack at the top of their fat pad they deluded themselves into calling themselves shreddedIf you were strong thats dope man but if you’re fat its kind of a given that you should be strongThe whole game is being strong without being fat>>98805679Pretty much thisI would rather Custodes be too elite than just be a regular army
>>98805620Land Raiders and Monoliths get a pass given the era they hail from, but are the absolute limit on what I'd personally be willing to run in my armies.
>>98805666No one cares metal tray fag stop spamming your shit here
I feel like giving legionary havoc's lascannon making it looks little off
Does that mean running ghaz in a list is cringe now?
>>98805775Don’t listen to these boneheads, they haven’t won a game in years and wear cologne.
>>98805779Cologne is based though>>98805765Nah he looks cool
What is the signature special thing about each faction? Is there any faction that doesn't have a special thing like basic codex space marines or do even they have a unique gimmick?
>>98805765Lookin' noice
>>98805807just watch some AI loretuber, they make it easily digestiblehttps://www.youtube.com/@ImperialIterator
>>98805826Yeah but like I mean game mechanics, not lore
>>98805807honestly, just ask ai to sum up every army
>>98805832Game mechanics loosely reflect loreIdk if there really is a completely vanilla mario/ryu type optionsGuard are heavy in vehiclesSoB are heavy on meltas and are just kind of shitMarines probably are the closest thing to what you’re describing but they also have their own gimmicks and stuff so honestly no I would say there isn’t really just a generic gray option
>>98805832oh IDK I don't play, I just consume AI loretuber videos and get excited for next AI loretuber videos
>>98805837
>>98805625They're like knights now. I understand if some people don't like gw doing this to their army.
>>98805725Truck nuts would go hard on redneck themed Trukks.
>>98804285Yes in a year in which GW has released 20 battleforces and 'value' boxes, following a year in which they released 15, what we really need is more battleforces. Each with worse and worse value.
>>98805871
>>98805666Nice
>>98805881I think orks would appreciate truck nut culture.
>Centaur has worse stats than the Chimera>and worse abilities vs. the Chimera>and less weapons than the Chimera>and costs more money than the Chimera>but costs 10 less pointsWhy would someone buy a Centaur? The Taurox is cheaper than both of these and is better as a light transport than the Centaur even. The Centaur has no purpose in current game unless GW reintroduces the "you can leave defeated vehicles on the field as cover" rule so you could take a bunch of them and then park them in sightlines to intentionally die and be a wall
>>98805892love that coon, would impregnate her for the glory of the Emperor
>>98805907Because soon you won't be able to take a chimera.
>>98805625I went from owning ~2700 points of custards to just over 4000 without buying a modelPersonally I like the change and would like them to have gone further but if you don't play a ton I can see it feeling like you're gonna have a lot of models collecting dust
There's a couple spots left in a GT happening in my town, should I enter? I haven't played since late 9th edition

>>98805807You can open up wahapedia and see the faction ability for each one. They typically fall into 1 of 3 categories:>each game round you get a selection of abilities to apply to units on the field (SM, TSons, Guard, world eaters)>once per game you get an ability to drastically boost your army or rebuffed your opponents (Orks, Nids)>each time you perform a specific action you accumulate points that you can spend on game actions (eldar, SoB, votann, DE)
>>98805198I know that blue trim. and I easily tracked the text to "forgotten fleets". thanks for posting GEMs, Imma try and hunt down all the pdfs. pity I can't post this pdf due to some file corruption bullshit.
>>98805953also I forgot to mention Eldar are gay
>>98805807>>98805953Also, to follow up, each faction has this unique ability and IIRC all their subfactions also have it. So for Space Wolves you have the faction ability of putting them in different formations (used to be oath of moment in 10e) and you also get the SW's chapter ability of completing "sagas" for buffs. Some detachments also add bonus effects beyond just buffing units/adding stratagems, I think thousand sons has a detachment that gives them bonuses in the areas they control on the battlefield? Some are more unique than others. Emperor's Children is probably the simplest one and lets all your units advance, shoot, and charge, as long as they're targeting different enemy units.
>>98805928I wouldn't blame you one bit anon.
>>98805171Buildan' Termies
>>98805928Based
>>98804240>TQOthers have said basing, but I’ll add, incorporating your base color scheme into your palette. It’s no longer just two main colors on the model, consider the base as the third color. From a far back conceptual stance, this makes everything pop more.Another thing, though less small, is only edge highlight in one direction. In the ‘eavy metal style they edge highlight omnidirectionally, but you should pick where your sunlight is coming from and highlight your edges based on where that would directly hit.

can I justbuy the sample paint set?
>>98805671Sp still subject to slave morality then.
>>98806094Do you wanna feel like the kid in 1st grade with the 12 pack of crayons or the one who brings the 200 color pack?
>>98806116what if I just steal the samples while no one is looking huhthe kid who stole all the crayons and legos and then played innocent and his twin brother backed him up
>>98806105No its like the bell curve meme where the retard and the genius agreeSpace marines are just based simple as
>>98806083slopchop strikes again
>>98806083Slapchopping a vehicle is wild, I haven’t seen that yet.I saw a mutilith vortex beast done that way, I guess that’s the closest.
>>98806126>No its like the bell curve meme where the retard and the genius agreeBut basic bitch always on the middle.
>>98806127Im also noticing (not just at my lgs but in general) how many tau players are using contrast on everything. Definitely not the army to paint with that shit
>>98806144nah that nigga plays eldar
>>98805171
tone pro was spoiled half a year ago and n o one cared
>>98806150Jeez sallyfag going all out
I don't really use the contrast paints I have much since tone/contrast seems like a meme to me but I based one of those exodite dragon dogs white and then slopped some frostheart blue on it and then slopped some magos purple on the feathers. I don't really like it that much but it's a token so I imagine in my head it doesn't matter.
Is it really tone "pro" if actual painting professionals dont use it?
>>98806149And now you just deflecting
>>98806154Well yeah, it's paints. Which most of /40kg/ don't care
>>98806163I tend to laugh at seeing armies that use contrast way too much and then I realise half of my minis are painted with contrast
James is a genius. Tricking customers into thinking Tone Pro will make them paint better is devilish. I'll just buy the white pot because Pro Acryl is hard to get in my northern European cunt.
>>98806160He’s been painting that same speeder for like 2 months and still hasn’t finished. Other than the sloppy panel highlighting it’s not bad.
>>98806170I dont even know what it does, but it seems to be getting skilled real hard atm
>>98806166Nah me just tellin it how it is
>>98806094They’re apparently not doing a box set of any of the colors which seems wild to me.
>>98806170Finally I will be able to say my stuff is pro painted
>>98806173Can we see your models paintlet
>>98806083I'd curious, what does that look like?
>>98806164UMMMM BUT IF I USE IT, I'M A PRO
>>98806184no discount box no buy.
>>98806190Covered in blood angels red, coffee stains everywhere its gore for marine fans
>>98806181It supposedly flows better and provides even layers with "good" coverage. Doesn't need to be thinned (as often), allegedly.
>>98806184They are going for maximum shekel extraction. Is it in stock in warhammer shops yet?
>>98806184So they won't sell the sample box?
>>98806205Sorry anon that was only for youtubers
>>98806160I’ve seen better.
>>98806182>NahNot an argument
>>98806209>Sorry anon that was only for youtubersgrim
>>98806184Honestly it's just pure greed of them to do shit like that.

>>98806292>major jedi masterYour primarch, xir
>>98806279Because George Lucas is based, unlike GW.

>>98806306>pretending to be retardedI accept your concession, marinesissy
>>98806286I don't ship. But just out of curiousity, i can fit 84 helmets per plate, and the material cost would come out to like a dollar or 2.
>>98806311Little bros shitty maymays backfired so hard hes ragequitting lol
>>98806301NTA but isn't this scene basically Isstvan V? Some guy who's supposed to be a top fucking dog just gets gunned down like a worthless faggot whilst trying to kill some preening dandy?
I’m jerking my tiny white pecker and watching Horus Heresy vids again. What’s everyone else doing on a Friday
excuse my ignorance as I skip 10th and 11th editions and read rules purely for shits n giggles, but what is the purpose of neurogaunts? and what's up with nodebeasts other than having a bigger model? synapse relay stations/units?
>>98806324Awww, he angy again that Colman Trebor is more culturally relevant than a primarch. Cute~!
>>98806333>t.Eldar fanboy
>>98806286>$45 for 20 helmetsFUCKING WHAT
>>98806326>trying to kill some preening dandy?That's hardly what dooku is. If you want to compare the two about the only thing that have in common is being master swordsmen and being rich
>I want the tau to be the covenant!why don't these guys buy covenant minis

>>98806350>AIslopWhy don't you just kill youself?
>>98806334Boxx stuffers that end up in combat patrols that nobody buys unless they're new I guess.
>>98806350It’s just the Covenant is cooler than the Tau. They actually feel alien instead of just blue humans
>>98806335hes back for more hell yeaidk who that is because star wars is gay but the overarching epic story of the primarchs with all of the biblical imagery and shit is what kept 40k culturally relevant for decadeswhatever mid inconsequential mustache twirling saturday morning cartoon shit you like about the setting wouldve drowned in the ocean of generic sci fi decades agoyoure welcome to like that mid shit btw nobody cares but yeah its basically just cringe and youre gay
>>98806359No these were just announced, they will be a thing.
>>98806347I was about to sayI dont know much about star wars but he always struck me as more of a cold professional than a dandy
>>98806359?
>>98806359meant for >>98806363
Primarchs coming back, other than the Gman and the Horus Heresy, are the worst things that have happened to 40k. HH should have stayed an obscure era with legends and fables.t. marinefag
>>98806363Unfathomably based
>>98806363>saturday morning cartoon shitVery ironic to say whilst defending ANGRYMON, THE ANGRY (his superpower is ANGER) and IRON HANDS, LEADER OF THE IRON HANDS (his HANDS are IRON)
>>98806363>primarchs with all of the biblical imagery and shit is what kept 40k culturally relevant for decadesI want decaltroon to choke on a knot
>>98806381Get with the times gramps
>>98806385Nigga stop samefagging, you attention whoring ass beta boy
>>98806400>everyone I don’t like is the same personIs this that fregoli thing I learned about yesterday?
>>98806363>primarchs>biblical imagery Soppo is my favorite Primarch.
>>98806408I don’t samefag, it’s not in my nature
>>98805625But that's lore accurate isn't it
This seems insane compared to the actual space marines combat patrolsIs it just because it's firstborns and not primarisActually seems like a decent start for building alpha legion
>>98806391and yet somehow these things still manage to stand out on the generic sci fi pile more than orks or biomass bug aliens
>>98806363>Biblical Bro Magnus and his entire deal is about failing a hermetic testpretty sure Tzeentch is just an evil version of Toth. There's way more than just Christianity in 40k
>>98806429its because its HH dumbo nothing to do about firstborn their standard games are like 3k or 4k
>my grandpa smurf got delivered today I'm actually excited, I don't know why I never picked up this model before, but this weekend is gonna be nice to paint
>>98806430Bro if you were a Marvel character you’d be bullseye with these perfect takes.
>>98806429Firstborn are so cool…..
>>98806363>biblical imageryThe primarchsissy is a tradcath larper!
>>98806441this but unironically
>>98806432>tothnobody knows who that is
>>98806430>these things still manage to stand outYeah lil b, NO ONE has done red angybois powered by being angy in space before. Primarchs are literal capeslop glup shittos and nothing more.
>>98806437Ah yes GW is notorious for pricing things accordingly when a force needs more models then others
>>98806449Kill yourself fecalfag
>>98806442I really fucking love mk6 armor
>>98806443dont just fabricate stuff man it makes our side look stupid
>>98806429I dunno ask /hhg/
>>98806456It’s not me he just so happens to be as based as I am, entirely coincidental.
>>98806452they'll do it for different game systems dumb nigga its the same for old world where you'll get more models than similarly priced 40k or aos kits
>>98806429>for building alpha legionkill yourself chaos-but-not-chaosfag
>newrecruit still isn't updated
>>98806350Honestly if I was a taufag I'd probably try to convert the Hunters. Not sure which equivalent unit they'd be but it'd be a fun project to tau em up.
>>98806451>>98806449
Since we're discussing Primarchs, is there any books that have Abaddon meet with his chaotic uncles? Do they talk on even terms? Or have they convently just stayed out of each other's paths?
>>98806449Toth is the Egyptian god of knowledge, later turned into Hermes by the greeksNurgle is named after Nergal, he was the ancient Mesopotamian god of war, plague, destruction, and co-ruler of the underworld.Kharn is obviously Odin and I'm not 100% sure but I think Slaanesh is Dionysus
>>98806468I'm schizophrenic
>>98806471>unable to conceptualize outside of himselfMost people don't know who Morticus or Corvus Crowman is either.
>>98806429I used that box in particular to start my Renegade Raiders listI just like Mk6 armor. The dreadnought is a bit large to proxy as anything in CSM unfortunately, so you kind of just sit on it or find someone willing to use the legends datasheet.>>98806443NTA but Alpharius and the Alpha Legion in general are clearly references to Revelation>Revelation 1:8>Revelation 21:6>Revelation 22:13All use the same "I am the alpha and the omega" line, which the name "Alpharius Omegon" is very obviously trying to reference.Sanguinius is clearly a Christ allegory as well with the whole "intentionally sacrifices himself to save humanity, and is literally crucified" thing.Those are the only overt Biblical references I'd cite though. Anything else is vaguely "this fits the religious aesthetic" for the most part.
>>98806478>Kharn is obviously OdinNo, khorne is crom
>>98806483Youre just making these like super niche comparisons that nobody knows about except hypernerds like you expecting me to recoil at the amazing point uoure trying to make lolLike who the fuck is this?>>98806451Literally nobody knows who this is lmfaooo
>>98806494That tracks better
>>98806483Sally would look into her own basket first, right?Sometimes these things are so simple that it makes me feel retarded and/or there's a catch to the thought experiment.
>>98806496I know who it is but I also read the GL comicsHe was really popular during Geoff Johns Green Lantern run
>>98806422>rips and tears a dragon apart with her bare hands Soppo is honestly way cooler than each and every primarch and it's not even close.
>>98806503You're correctIt's a test meant to see if the test-taker can imagine the perspective of Sally. Some people are mentally incapable of imagining a perspective other than their own. It's like the breakfast question, to see if the person in question is capable of imagining something other than what he/she experienced.
>>98806505Pretty cool art man but yeah this is like a reference my retired dad would get lol
>>98805642>they also move 8"you mean move 10 as everyone will be on solar watch for +"2 karate stance and global fallback and charge
>>98806496>super niche comparisons that nobody knows about except hypernerds like youFocus, M, there's a hint to solve the puzzle in your very own statement. If you figure it out you might just earn enough Primarch Points to buy some upgrades.
>>98806515bro 2004 to 2013 is pretty recent but I get what you're sayingAlso I wasn't that other anon I just wanted to explain who the guy was.
>>98806505I don't even read capeshit but have learned about him via osmosis from comic nerds. Sort of like how I only nonconsensually know about primarchs from HHfaggots clogging up these threads.
>>98806524>bro 2004 to 2013 is pretty recent>recent2013 was 13 years ago.2004 was 22 years ago.
>>98806519I get that youre trying to be combative but genuinely that shit is so niche it just comes off as cringe
>>98806524He's just big mad that primarchs are a niche within a niche and can't conceive that most people don't know about them.
>>98806534>13 years ago>22 years agomy god
primarchs got this dude in his feelings kek
>>98806532>Sort of like how I only nonconsensually know about primarchs from HHfaggots clogging up these threads.They are in your game blod and more important than any faggy xenos bug or space elf you worship
>>98806536>that shit is so niche it just comes off as cringeYou're so very close, M. You can figure this one out without yellow paint, I believe in you.
>>98806468Chaos is shit renegades are best suck it
>>98806512Who the Hell is that giga-fuck tall nigga on the traitor side?
>>98806512Damn this goes hard!
>>98806540Nta but space marine 2 had like 200k players at one point 40k isnt really that niche any more you just want it to be
>>98806512Somehow more gay than gachimuchi, impressive.
>>98806551magnus
>>98806551That's my OC, his name is Face FuckerHe routinely beats all the primarchs and the emperor in fight fights and bangs dark eldar for fun
>>98806547I get what youre getting at but posting a comic that probably sold like 15k copies and pretending its the same just makes you look retarded
I'm starting some gretchin.
>>98806557Which one of the main characters of SM2 was a primarch again, I forgor
>>98806551Come on man that’s Magnus, the one Russ turned out
>>98806478Isn’t that Thoth
>>98806562>>98806569Oh, fucking duhI feel silly
>>98806568Guilliman was mentioned more times in SM2 than Eldar
>>98806568I didnt even play it but the point is 40k isnt really niche like that any more as much as you want it to beIt certainly isnt as niche as the villain in a fucking green lantern comic from 2004 lmfaooo
>>98806576fuck I misspelled his name, but yeah Tzeentch is obviously based on Thoth
>>98806546dunno go ask /homoheroticageneral/
>>98806485>naming shit Alpha and Omega = an in-depth biblical allegoryThat shit's been done to death so much that it's just labels at this point. If you have an Alpha X you're probably gonna end up with an Omega X. Even Starcraft has Alpha and Omega Squadrons for the Terrans.
New to 40K here and I've never read Green Lantern.Primarchs I can name:Rowboat GirlymanLion L JohnsonAngronMortationFulgrimGreen Lantern characters I can name:Hal JordanJohn StewartGuy GardnerSinestroI'd say the two are about equally obscure. Before getting back into 40k I probably couldn't have named any other than Girlyman, if there wasn't a bunch of GL stuff recently I'd have only remembered Sinestro and Green lantern, maybe one of them's name.
>>98806581>Guilliman was mentionedSo none then? Even the G-wiz himself was stuck in the irrelevant corner as Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Game?
>>98806512Boring
>>98806594Pretending you can’t name Horus or Leman Russ is pretty lame
>>98806597lil bro brought this guy >>98806451 up thinking he really did something LOL
>>98806603>Leman RussIsn't that a tank?
>>98806603pretty sure he only named one's that have models in 40k
I hate the defiler so much. I wish I could scratch build it but I’d probably be denied to run it at tournaments
>>98806485I was planning on using lots of 3rd party bits and doing a bunch of kitbashing As for rules I was thinking of running them as like raven guard rules and going more snipers and such, I've kinda got my lore setup for this specific warband of alpha legion But just running CSM with tons of cultists is like accurate tactics wise, but I don't wanna fucking buy and paint a ton of cultists
>>98806597Titus confirmed as a pillar of 40k’s cultural relevance
>>98806334Yeah, they’re literally just WiFi chaff. But there’s so many better ways to get synapse that most people don’t use them. Swarmlord has big synapse range. All the good melee units right now (except for Von Ryan’s Leapers,) have Synapse leaders.Neurotyrant can attach its neuroloids.And the ever reliable Neurolictor. I put two of them in every list.
>>98806603I actually remembered Russ after posting and Hours slipped my mind while making the list.>>98806611I did, because those are the ones whose name I remembered. I couldn't remember Magnus while writing the list either. He was initially "the tzeench one" in my mental draft of this post.
>>98806607He's probably as important to lanternfags as primarchs are to HHfags.
>>98806623I mean, he was the reason I got into 40k originally
>>98806640theres like a couple dozen lanternfags in the world so I wouldnt worry about them too much
>>98806614as long as it looks good they won't give you two shits about it
I like orks vs guard on Whogivesashit VI for decades as much as the next guy but its primarching time boys
>>98806623He unironically is, yeah. He's got twice as many 40K legal models than any of the primarchs have.
/co/ hereGL is actually gaining a lot of momentum it had a few years back before that Ryan Renolds movie killed the franchise for a few yearsHal kicked Bens ass in Death Battle and it triggered all the ben 10 fans like crazyDeath Battle will never include Warhammer characters because everyone know's they'd winThere's also a new show that's getting a lot of praise, but it's really fucking woke so keep that in mind.
Didn't GW give out bonuses in march predicting that the next fiscal year might be worse? Were they aware that 11th will have really rough start?
>>98806652There are more total primarchs so primarchs win (again)
>>98806662this is some squeegee coded shit right here>>98806666based
Implying GW gives a single shit about primarchs other than guilliman
>>98806592>it's been done a lot so it's not a reference anymoreThen I guess every time someone has put on an Arnie impression and said "I'll be back" wasn't a reference, because it's been done a lot?>an in-depth biblical allegoryShow me where I said those words in regards to the Alpha Legion and Alpharius. I said they were a *reference* to the Bible, because they clearly are a reference to the literal text within it.>If you have an Alpha X you're probably gonna end up with an Omega XIn a Greek letter enumeration system, yes, but that's not what we're talking about. You're arguing apples and oranges.We're talking about a character named a derivative of "Alpha Omega" who leads the last of the legions that serve the settings' God allegory. The references to Revelation in particular are very on-the-nose.Sanguinius is the only thing I specifically called allegorical, and he's not "in-depth" because Christ is the most well-known basic character arc to refer to due to how widespread Christianity is in regards to influencing literature written in a European language.Having a character sacrifice himself to save a larger group and then be crucified as part of the sacrifice isn't "in-depth," it's surface-level.
>>98806674Have you watched the recent Q&As? It’s because they hire fags like you that they ignore the Primarchs.
>>98806674If they didn't they wouldn't give Lion, Angron, Magnus, Morty or Fulgrim models.
>>98806662>There's also a new show that's getting a lot of praise, but it's really fucking woke so keep that in mind.
>>98806683demon primarchs don't count, they're practically 40k greater demons

>>98806662That speech by the pajeet Man Hunter when she’s talking to John on the operating table about how it chose a jeet to challenge itself in our world was so fucking cringe I almost died.
>>98806620You may want to actually play loyalist rules then. Better rules for what you want and datasheets for particulars ("snipers and such" in Eliminators, etc) that CSM doesn't have.There's nothing stopping you from building a unit of Legionaries with bolters and saying "these are Intercessors" after all (beyond your opponent being a stick-in-the-mud).

>>98806742and the ancient
>>98806680>Then I guess every time someone has put on an Arnie impression and said "I'll be back" wasn't a reference, because it's been done a lot?Arnie isn't 2000 years old and so over-referenced that you can be pulling from a reference of a reference of a reference without ever knowing the source material. It's a bit like calling every use of the Dies Irae leitmotif a direct and intentional religious callback rather than acknowledging it's the generic foreboding/villainous leitmotif. Or thinking every time a villain plays a pipe organ the creator is directly referencing Bram Stoker's Dracula and knows the cultural/religious implications of a villain owning a personal pipe organ.Granted, I'm not saying Alphon and Omegon AREN'T intended to be biblical references, I'm saying it's so fucking weak and paper-thin that it's just vaguely using the vibes conferred by the titles rather than an in-depth biblical allegory.

>>98806797she got 2 models! she's actually a fan favourite, more than any primarch
>>98806809Calm down anon I’m pretty sure he’s straight >>98806810Not falling for the trap
>>98806797I mean, she was important.She even got a 2nd model (that looks better) and a whole retinue to go with it as well, so I am right.
>>98806815If you want someone to post models, you post your own models.
>>98806701Oh yeah I know rules are just kinda whatever now a days, and I do have some CSM that I experimented with on a paint scheme, along with some termiesIf anything il just slowly pick up stuff and figure out a list after, since my first priority is just having a cool alpha legion army that I love I had some one at my locals 3d print me some 3rd party alpharius model he had and then I kinda went from there
>>98806813>she's actually a fan favouriteGW keeps churning those so fast
>>98806813>>98806817>no longer looks like the mom from Malcolm in the MiddleIt's a better model, but I like it less (but was never going to buy either)
I still can't believe they blew up cadia and then had the audacity to make an entire new line of cadian plastics
>>98806829>like the mom from Malcolm in the Middleshe wasn't meant to
>>98806830everyone is cadia now
>>98806838I would never let a beauty like this fall into the hands of the enemy!
>>98806838>she wasn't meant toI know, but the new model looks even less like that book cover. At least looking like Malcolm's mom made me chuckle slightly every time I saw it.

>>98806874God damn, you're like a fucking 10 year old
>>98806747>that you can be pulling from a reference of a reference of a reference without ever knowing the source materialYou didn't get my point.Cultural artifacts and pieces of media leave a mark on the zeitgeist, and can be referred to both intended or otherwise; people are still making Star Wars references when they quote the Family Guy parodies. Making a reference to Zurg from Toy Story is still a Star Wars reference, because *your* reference material in that case is itself referential to another. Referring to a reference is still making a reference to the original, no matter how many steps are in the chain. The only issue in that comes in steps that are missing from record in that chain, but that's not within the scope of this conversation.I'd argue that these references in particular were intended in the context of the Alpha Legion, because the people who created Alpharius Omegon and the setting at-large grew up in England (a nation with a long history interconnected to Christianity), went to school in England, and studied near-east religions (one of which being Christianity) in England, among other Britons, many of whom were Christian and would know the text. To NOT know about the text of "the alpha and the omega" with all this outside context would be an *extreme* fluke at best.>rather than an in-depth biblical allegoryAgain, I didn't say that. I said "Alpharius Omegon" was a reference. The only thing I said was allegory was Sanguinius.>>98806854Graves was clearly meant to be a Yarrick replacement, my headcanon on this can never be changed.
>>98806874she looks dumb
>>98806797I know GW doesn't really like making female models pretty and all but did they really need to make her a bogdanoff
>>98806881This is the autistic nerdy manchild hobby after all. I heard some LGSs have huge spergs
>techmarine>2x dreadnought >Sicaran>Cerberus>VindicatorI hope this isn't too much to deal with at 1000, otherwise it's termie spam.
>>98806883>I said "Alpharius Omegon" was a referenceAnd I'm saying if all it takes to call something "biblically rooted" is the loosest of references then it's a meaningless descriptor. As another anon pointed out Magnus has way more pagan references by way of being essentially Egyptian Odin.Hell, the original post didn't even say biblically rooted, it said biblical imagery and that applies even less to HH since the fall of Sanguinous is the only HH image that has any sort of biblical weight to it.
>>98806881Permanent means permanent.
>>98806682Good, because other primarchs are fucking shit.
>>98806897I hope Sanguinius returns, he was just too cool
>>98806897NTA but doesn't that just mean Chaos is non Christin based religion while the imperium is Christianity coded
>>98806897I tuned out from this shit forever ago but I’ll pop back in to say that theres a good amount of biblical imagery and this weird discussion trying to be like “nooo its pagan and its actually referencing zorf from poopieology which is the precursor to scientology!” like no nigga its just some biblical type shit relax lol
>>98806904Bite your tongue Xeno testicle fondler
>>98806897I could've saved him...
>>98806908>imperium is Christianity codedI mean, that's painfully obvious if all the cathedrals and gothic spires didn't tip you off.It's also how you know Space Wolves are actually chaosfags, since they're filthy pagan dogfuckers
>>98806910Bruh spitting facts and the lil antichrists here have splitting mental pains from it

>>98806262how did you get such a good print on the exodite dragon rider?Also not really fair since the 'exodite guardian' (tm) isn't a model that actually exists, that looks like a high elf body with dire avenger bits and an exodite helmet.

>>98806346>>98806317This can literally be solved by the free market, someone getting their own printer and charging 30 bucks instead of 45.
>>98806897>meaningless descriptorNo, it evokes something frequently referred to, but not referred to by *everything*. A "meaningless descriptor" is one that is used in all cases; not all references are to the Bible, so therefore "biblical reference" must still be a useful descriptor. Unless you think a reference to Lennie's killing in Of Mice and Men is a biblical one too.>loosest of referencesIt's a direct paraphrase of 3 specific lines in Revelation.Calling that a "loose" reference is like saying Vulkan is a loose reference to the Roman god of the forge. If you aren't aware, the Roman god of the forge is named Vulcan. I hope I don't have to explain the connection.
>>98806952I forget who they are but there's this really weird looking kaleidoscopic Tzeentchian warband (they don't use rubrics) that I always thought was cool.People complain "it's weird that the tzeentch legion uses robot mummies that don't change" but I actually like it because it opens the door for CSM: TZEENTCH ALIGNED to be totally different, while all of the nurgle or khorne warbands always have berzerkers and plague marines naturally as a result of their god's blessings which is kind of lame (crimson slaughter).
>>98806976I thought the unchanging automatons thing was very wizard likeWizards always used golems or artificial life forms to guard their magical items
can you recommand really fine sand paper for mold line removing? it pisses me off doing it with a knife.
>>98806952it's not these guys but these guys are like a less difficult to paint version
>>98806973>frequently referred toit isn't frequently referred toalso alpha and omega has more to do with the first and last letter of the alphabet than the biblical verse
>>98806983Just leave them who cares?
>>98806973>It's a direct paraphrase of 3 specific lines in Revelation.It's a weaker reference than anything in Neon Genesis Evangelion, which explicitly just used biblical imagery as a skinsuit because the creator thought "it looked cool". Hell, it's almost an anti-reference since Alpha/Omega being separate people completely defeats the purpose of the "I am the Alpha and Omega" line you are referring to.>Calling that a "loose" reference is like saying Vulkan is a loose reference to the Roman god of the forge.Well, both are crippled cucks so I certainly won't disagree with you there.
>>98806983pricked your finger with the knife again huh
First blasters status:primed.The first model of the unit is done bar his pauldron and basing. If any anons have advice for plasma without an airbrush it would be appreciated as I'm not too happy with how the first one turned out.

>>98806984They look cool. Maybe changing the color of the trim to steel would make them look less night lord
>>98806989permanent
>>98806988>also alpha and omega has more to do with the first and last letter of the alphabetNow why do you think they were specifically used in the Bible verse, anon? One of the particular Bible verses that was written originally in Greek?Maybe to express that turn of phrase with the beginning and end to say God and Christ are two, but also one?>>98806991Has it been explicitly stated that Alpharius and Omegon are two different people?Or on the other side, assuming they are two different people, it still evokes the beginning and end reference, which is the same one used in Revelation. They (God and Christ in the Bible, Alpharius and Omegon in 40k) don't have to literally be the same personification, but they are used to represent the beginning (God/Alpharius) and end (Christ/Omegon).I've gone on enough of a theological tangent in the 40k thread today, I'll call it here.
>>98806976>it opens the door for CSM: TZEENTCH ALIGNED to be totally differentThe problem with that is they don't get much model support. Sure you can get creative with kitbashes and CSM force structure and the like but I can see people who wanted fantasy/AoS tzeentch in space being miffed they don't get cool, weird mutants for their dedicated tzeentchmarines
>>98807019>Has it been explicitly stated that Alpharius and Omegon are two different people?Yes>it still evokes the beginning and end referenceNot really since they are neither the beginning nor end. They're just two bald manlets. They have more in common with Jesus' infinitie breadfish glitch than with being God and Christ.
>>98806911It is the truth, and James agrees.
>>98807019>Now why do you think they were specifically used in the Bible verse, anon?because you can reference the first and last letter of the alphabet without it being a biblical thing
>>98807020>they don't get cool, weird mutants for their dedicated tzeentchmarinestzaangors

>>98807049Those are neither cool nor weird
>>98807020aos has even fewer mutants, at least 40k has exalted sorcerers
>>98806861You're faceblind
>>98807046Not in the context of English speaking writers who don't use the Greek alphabet in their everyday lives.An English person's first introduction to those two letters is far more likely to be the turn of phrase in Revelation than by learning the Greek alphabet.

Hive worlds remind me of India.

>>98807112You can't make this shit up
>>98807131>dude he writes lore for 40k he knows Greek for sure
>>98807123That's very unfair to Hive Worlds, anon. Even orks have better living standards than India.
>>98807112As expected after the foot reveal
>>98807137>a writer for the series stuffed to the gills with psuedolatin is DEFINITELY completely unfamiliar with the basics of the greek alphabet!
>>98807138What are those Orks doing :(
>>98807150Enjoying the moment.
>>98807131Your argument is that they're more likely to have learned Greek than to have heard someone refer to the book that's been printed more than every other book? Knowing full well that these people grew up in a nation that was majority Christian at the time, and didn't use the Greek alphabet?The venn diagram of "people who know the Greek alphabet" and "people who have heard one of a few passages out of Revelation" have a very large overlap.
>>98807148Im not the dude youve been arguing with I was just fucking with you but youre genuinely retarded if you think the alpha omega thing was picked for some other reason lol
>>98807160I'm not the dude you've been arguing with either, I just think it's retarded to act like Alpha/Omega are some sort of elite greek alphabet ball knowledge that requires a deep understanding of the language.
Recaster bros, how's the cleaning process of resin models? Just scrub it gently with water with dish soap? Thinking of grabbing Sanguinius for a friend and a few things for myself.
>>98807164That's not what I saidI said that it's more likely that they had been introduced to the concept by the Bible first.
>>98807164Nobody ever even said it was lol this whole shit started over someone arguing about whether the alpharius omegon thing was likely a reference to the “i am the alpha and omega” passage in the bible
