>>98923748
>>98923999Yea
God I wish I didn't suck at painting
RED ALERT RED ALERTCODEX TITANICUS IS GOSECUTARIIPRINCEPSWARHOUND TITANS FOR CHRISTMAS
>>98923999you won’t be slipping up forever, so you don’t need to base your army around how you paint as a beginner (though orks are pretty cool :D). HOWEVER even if you go for orks it’ll still look like shit. orks are goofy and lax, but they’re still beholden to looking like they could be real, and having dashes of metal on their hand, or green skin on their shirt will still look sloppy. as a piece of advice to deal with slip ups, once you’re done with your basecoat, paint over any slip ups with the original color. its really easy to do and usually when you’re concentrating on one singular spot its easier to not mess up rather than trying to paint a dude’s entire skin.
>>98924027He's right though, you cannot have a machine made of metal that also is somehow lighter than air and flies through the skySheer insanity
Where's "i le like le orks xdxdxdxdxdx orks xdxdx" GOD?
>>98924004The worst painted models are better than unpainted models
>>98924036man I hate to say it but this yellow looks awful
>>98923993Now that the Loyalist Warhound Titan is confirmed? When plastic Chaos Warhound Titan?
>>98924042take plastic warhoundput spikes on itnow it's a chaos warhound
>>98924027>big codex book with tons of shit fluff about titans>unit list: Warhound titan>list ends
hehyou're late fat man
>>98924040What the fuck did you think I meant when I said worst painted models? You think I give a shit that they suck?They're painted, who cares. Worrying about doing a good job is how you end up with grey tide. Just keep your paint thin and stay in the lines.
>>98924046GW marketing must be steaming mad over this.
>>98924047mased absolutely mased and keyed
>>98924053nta but where the fucked did this retarded "keyed" shit come from?
Titans shouldn't be in the game, but I'd be interested in buying the kit itself. Except I actually still won't buy it because it'll be like $600 and I could just get a perfect grade gundam for less instead.
>>98924059ahemIt's plastic and being released first for heresySo it'll only be 450 dollarshehbet you feel silly
>>98924058le monkey face
>>98924027I wonder if they'll keep the resin pricing, or better yet increase it.Surely £600ish for a plastic model is a bit on the nose.
>>98924046>>98924042>>98924027Are GW going to relaunch Apocalypse or something?
>>98923748These days they're full of detail but generally even if you only pick 3 colors and paint them somewhat neatly you'll have a nice looking model.Honestly you'd be better off just trying some painting instead of thinking about it, actually doing something and seeing it first hand will convince you more than any bullshit I can write.
>plastic warhoundI member when titans were coming in resin with forgeworld, incredible.Plastic thunderhawk when?Bring back mk4 castraferrum james you bitch.
>>98924082insider hereyes
>>98924082Why would they do that when they've already shoved superheavies that don't belong into the main game? Just buy it, idiot. Buy buy buy.
>>98924044well the pictured sprue doesn't have any weapons, it's just a chassis.If I was GW I would be like>warhound body- 180 bucks>big plasma cannon- 76 bucks>big rocket cannon- 76 bucks>melee knife arms- 76 bucksAnd then each warhound is a different loadout like the Knights codex having multiple loadouts but more jewish since you buy each box separately.
>>98924096JUST GIVE ME MY FUCKING FORGE WORLD DESIGNED CHAOS DREADNOUGHTS FUCK YOU I USE TO HAVE ONE AND I SOLD IT I DEEPLY REGRET IT AGHHHHHHHHHHH
Also most new army releases have few units, like the emperor's diddleren.>secutarii general>securitarii melee>secutarii guns>secutarii walkers>warhound melee loadout>warhound plasma loadout>warhound other loadout>named warhound "the buttfucker of destruction">little princeps model you can put in the warhoundThereThat's a complete new army
>>98924103Bring my boy back
>>98924107Why the fuck are people saying titans are gonna get a codex like they're an army
>>98924103Many people are saying it.
>>98924120Because its another $300 limited edition book GW can sell you.
>>98924120New army = $$$Btw Americans love giant retarded shit with which they don't have to think too much, see the popularity of Knights and Custodes over there, and US is now their biggest market
>>98924120titans are better as their own army than knights, plus there's already an Index: Adeptus Titanicus to work from.
>>98924128>>98924130>>98924134Knights already suck to play as or against, tables aren't getting any bigger, apocalypse isn't a thing anymore.You know what, fuck it, I want to this how this plays out, let's be retarded.
>>98924107They can work only in Heresy
>>98924140titans are supposed to be backed up by secutarii legions.
>>98924141they're coming to 40k just like custodiansThough now that I think of it, custodians really should have just been a 30k only army.
>>98924142>knights don't get infantry>titans do
Didn't a plastic knight with a 2028 date on the sprue leak months ago? Is this different?
>>98924153the plastic knight sprue is for an alt knight destrier, mechanicus themed. Could be related, but not the same thing.
>>98924151The weak should fear the strong.
should I put a block of khorne berzerkers in a CSM army?I know they don't get dark pacts or blessings of khorne, but creations of bile can give them +2" move (10" total) and advance+charge for a T1 rush
>>98924102>chaos warhound can have any mix of gear>loyalist warhound is limited to specific sets>got a warhound with a weapon pair not in a set? sucks 2 b u
>>98924103>CHAOS DREADNOUGHTSYou mean Chaos™ Helbrutes™
>>98924151Iconoclast and Questor Forgepact let you sneak in 500pts of infantry trash to support and hold objectives
>>98924117>check out metal dreads on ebay>prices are at least twice as much since last time i checkedyo what the fuckeven the old killa kans
>>98924186I don't care about rules past 5th, I want model kits.
Wysiwyg is one of the worst inventions of all time.Not as if the majority of the fanbase can tell the fucking difference between different variants of eldar or tyranids guns.
>>98924189>even the old killa kansthe one that went on Made to Order not that long ago, or the even older ones?
>>98924193Wysiwyg sucks if you're tailoring your list.Wysiwyg is the point of you're actually playing warhammer.
>>98924194the old metal onesyou know the same tiny packaging as characters
>>98924200El blistorz de la metallica
>>98924171>chaos warhound can have tentacles>chaos warhound gets dark mech chaos androids instead of secutarii>chaos warhound is just plain cooler
i wish i could go back in time and build an ork army full of metal minis
>>98924214I wish I could go back in time and stop myself from buying blisters from random factions instead of building an actual army.
>>98924223Imagine what the red shirts were saying>hey its the retard who buys random blistersYah dingus.
>>98924228Bro I was 9.
>>98924223we all did that didn't we?i got the termi chaos warlord with that gun that don't have rules anymore because it looked coolsometimes even fairly recently i bought a character to try painting it to see how it is, did a necron, pretty pleasant to paint, did a sister so now i know i don't want to paint sisters
>>98924214You can get your hands on metal minis, that's what I do. Little expensive though. As to going back in time I haven't quite figured that one out yet.
>>98924234man i'm jelly as hell of that mek
>>98924223That's good actually, to buy models you actually liked, rather than buying shit just cuz the rules asked for it.
>>98924234>orange checker marksgod damn that must've been hell to paint
>>98924166I mean it's not terrible, but outside of the unit size they're almost identical to melee legionaries at this point outside of the mobility. If you want a blob of 20 guys go for it I guess, they are slightly cheaper PPM for the same melee stats but have no character support and can't pact.
>>98924238He was a little pricey but there is quite a few in circulation. You can probably get one for below 100$.>>98924243Nah, the checkers were pretty simple. As far as freehand goes it's some of the easier things you can do. Doesn't take that long either assuming you have a steady hand.
>>98924280I see you chief
>>98924339Propa orky, ohana means family
>>98924339It's canonical.
Can someone tell me what the big deal about titans are
>>98924342Famiglia...
>>98924369>the big deal>big deal>bigkek
>>98924339it's on the official list of orks symbols
>>98924339Retard
>>98924214I don't miss those days at all. Hated pinning, hated paint chipping whenever the top-heavy stuff fell over, hated the flash and miscast details on every other model. Kids these days don't realise how good they have it with plastic everything.
>>98924405sure, metal models are harder to work with, but i still like them
>>98924405I have tons of metal models and I have no issues with working on them.
I wanted to get back into 40k (I haven't played since 4th ed)The lack of customisation in list building, especially with no pts cost diff for unit equipment, is disgusting. Feels very antithematic to have to take the most expensive loadout or handicap yourself efficiency-wiseMight have to stick with old world, sad, very sad
>>98924397Calm down fatso it’s just a joke
Holy fuck assembling vehicles sucks
>>98924429This. Once you get a taste of customization and wargear, you can't go back.
>>98924435Let me guess, rhino or land raider?
>>98924047I feel like going back over these with a small sponge with thin yellow on the armor panels would really boost the paint job on these. Sometimes I get stuck on improving the paint on my old marines.
>>98924435Wait till you started painting it.
Has anyone bought the pre painted terrain? Are the pieces as glossy as they look in the videos? Did you spray them with a matte varnish?
>>98924497You're not supposed to look at them from up close, that's for sure.
>>98924497It's better than grey terrain but that's about it
What's the best listbuilding app?I've heard good things about Ironbuilt
>>98924103Plastic Decimator fucking WHEN
>>98923993Not really
>>98924608>One of the rarest, most advanced machines in the Imperium with armor blessed and forged 10,000 years ago partially by the Emperor's own hand>stuck killing gaunts lol
>>98923379Blast is 1 extra attack per 5 models that then still has to play with the invuln save. Except for Aggressors with blast 2 (I haven't seen blast 2 anywhere else), that's 2 extra attacks per and they're a massive problem waiting to happen at 90 points per 3 because they can get 33 attacks into a 20-man squad. I fully expect to see Aggressors either spike in points or go to blast 1 once someone spams them at a tournament.Into a squad of terminators, extra attacks are far less reliable vs. a 16.67% chance of every attack being a guaranteed wound that ignores the invuln save via Devastating Wounds.Blast is only really effective into massed infantry to get 4+ extra dice or into 10-man units of normal marines where d6+2 attacks at 2d each is a lot. Or if you spam those blast weapons like you can with Infernus, Aggressors or Rubrics, that makes blast unfun dogshit to play against and it works against anything because of statistical probability.I guess the point of this post is that flamers should not have blast and terminators should not have a 4+ invuln save because both break the system in some way, but both are consequences of the other and additional compounding unaddressed issues caused by 40ish years of bandaid fixes, power creep and shortsighted design.
>>98924593unfortunately it's newrecruit again, if you have the github link for the non-ai translated rules. the good ones get taken out.
>>98924003ARRGHHH WHY IS IT SYMMETRICAL IT SHOULD BE A CGI DESIGNED NIGHTMARE OF MONOPOSE MODELS AND SUBDIVISONS AND SQUIGGLY LINES WITH SPRUE GATES ON ROUNDED CORNERS
>plastic Warhound Titan may have actually leakedI guess we know the Christmas reveal this year lmao.
>>98924577Not trolling but it's not as clear cut. Terrain is best when it blends into the background and doesn't steal your attention from the army, unless it's an objective. Simple terrain is best.
>>98924497No, because I ain't buying a 400$ terrain box.Apparently it also looks worse in reality due to spray painting errors, there are videos on youtube.
>>98924664Give the titan a luscious mane of hair so that we can add sprue gates to it.
>>98924664To be fair they are working from the resin model, which was articulated iirc.Also, for that price, that shit better be articulated.In short: don't think GW sculptors are smart, they're just redoing the old resin thing in plastic, nothing fancy, not much thought put into it.
>>98924189nostalgia tax now that 40k is infested by scalpers and "collectors" (hoarders)
Do you think wahapedia will ever get taken down?
>>98924709it's in russia. we're safe until at least a couple of years after the end of the war in ukraine
>>98924707>scalpers, collectors and hoardersI've seen some of them refer to themselves as "Investors". In lego circles mostly.
Dark Eldar refresh is coming. I can feel it.
When is the Kill Team Armageddon box finally going on pre-order? Aren't the Christmas boxes coming out at the end of November?
>>98924731I prefer the term literally me.
>red in 30k>Blue in 40kWhy?
new mini todayI just bought on of those fake grassI wonder which brand is the best
>>98924753magnus redtzench blue
>>98924748say cheese
>>98924753Because they got beaten black and blue by the Space Wolves and never recovered.
>>98924497Seen them irl, they look like they should have a texture feel to them but are smooth to touch. It's weird enough for me to not want them but if you're extremely lazy, and have the cash it's essentially two terrain boxes with a $50 charge for painting them then I guess they're fine.
no you don't understand, if you read the lore the Night Lords are actually very sympathetic
>>98924763Cheesed to meet ya.
>>98924815>loreI hate "lore". Fluff is better, not just the word.
>GW pulls a surprise reveal of a new Xenos army>Its the Pale Wasting>Its a soup army of every other army with upgrade sprues to make them into fucked up xenophage dronesHow would you react to an army thats basically a codex and upgrade sprues?
>>98924815Yes
>>98924833>How would you react to an army thats basically a codex and upgrade sprues?I don't have to buy the book, so okayIf the upgrade sprue is good, why not? What if GW made GSC just a big upgrade sprue from the start?
>>98924753i like how tiny magnus's arms are in this image
>>98924859Thats the fucked up thing. If you wanted a Brood Brothers army a couple of editions ago you straight up got Imperial Guard units up to and including tanks with a GSC upgrade sprue. Nowadays its all monopose sloppa because its not a hobby anymore, but a tabletop videogame.
>>98924860It matches his pencil dick
>>98924758Is this a kitbashed mutilator? The center piece looks like the chassis from a helbrute. Looks good.
>>98924860tzeentch chose to grow his already massive body to be absolutely colossal, unfortunately, tzeentch also chose to leave his arms unchanged. The Great Mutator is a cruel deity.
>>98924874>t. Emperor of Mankind
>>98924868It's true that the current brood brother upgrade is very much made to go with cadians.I don't trust modern GW for upgrade sprues or good kits. Maybe in a few years when people will really get sick of the retarded way of building the models, but even then I don't think normalniggers care about the kind of customization and poseability that for instance marines had in middlehammer.A good portion of warhammer fags were actual hobby nerds, adjacent to ww2 diorama fags, train model fags and gunpla fags. Today it's like DnD; gone are the nerds who actually roleplay into universe to explore dungeons and have real adventures, now faggots want to star in their own shitty movie/show and for the universe to bend around their wish, rather than work with the universe.We are in normalnigger territory now and GW is just a stereotypical company retarded about their IP and investors, it's not gonna get better, we gotta make our own upgrade sprues.
how does Ironbound enmity work?if I give it to chaos lorddoes he get to crit wound on 5+?
I remember seeing art a while back of a mechanicus automaton that looked like a mechanical eyeball with a bolter and two legs. Does anyone know what it was called?
>Uwah!
>>98924642>janitor>takes out trashChecks out
>>98924903No. Read the critical rule again. Critical hits and wound only happen on unmodified dice rolls, and only on 6s, UNLESS another rule says otherwise. There are lots of rules that make critical hits happen on unmodified 5+, but again, it's always on unmodified dice rolls. +1 or -1 modifiers don't change whether a hit or wound is a critical.
>11th edition plebs never got a Leman Russ with a GSC upgrade sprue in the box.You can't even call yourself a GSC enjoyers anymore. You are a Kill Team secondary if you got in after 10th.
>>98924904I think I see exactly the kitbash you're talking about, seeing it from the side and it facing to the left, but fuck I don't think I have it saved
>>98924931remember when orks could use other armies's vehicles?
>>98924931I fell off GSC after what 10th did to them, can they even take Leman Russes anymore or are they just a horde army now? i only see one severely autistic man at locals running a table full of metamorphs, hybrids and abberants.
>>98924955remember when lootas could take other armies weapons?
>>98924973ho yeah, laser lootas where the good stuff
>>98924497A friend got it recently and complained that the painting is extremely dusty/grainy to the point the details are obscured. I've yet to see it myself upclose but the price isn't that high imo, considering it's combat patrol terrain x2 which is 2x120 euro by itself so having it painted is just a 30 euro increase. It's a lot of money upfront but if you're playing the game regularly and can't be arsed with painting it then it's not a bad deal.
>>98924931Not even GSC enjoyers do enjoy GSC with the current rules.>t. newfag GSC enjoyer
>>98924904Found it: "Surveillance robot" from some 30k card game.
>>98925017There's a model of that guy somewhere too.
>>98925008I was thinking of getting into GSC soon, but the current rules seem really bland and unfun. I'm looking at the detachments and I literally don't want any of them. I'm still probably going to get some models to paint... but playing them? Not right now, that's for sure.
>>98925008Brother you have been robbed of your heritage, gods we were strong then...
>>98925017>>98925027That's what I was thinking of, but the kitbash of it
>>98925045
>>98925030I run Host of Ascension and it's pretty fun, used to be better in 10th before the nerfs and 11th ed got rid of some fun mechanics where you resurrected units at the start of the command phase with the cult icon, so you bypassed battleshock step by suddenly having enough models over the threshold. Now revive happens after the battleshock test. Return to Shadows strategem was pretty good too, you put a unit into reserves if it was shot at. Now it's a generic remove a unit to the reserves at the end of opponent's fight phase. Primed and Readied got nerfed way too hard, along with Primus though I have to admit it was bullshit when you combined sustained hits/lethal hits/ignores cover/critical hits on 5s with full rerolls.There really isn't a decent discount box to start collecting, I guess the combat patrol is okay for acolytes/ridgerunner/jackals are pretty good on their own and are all useable. 9th ed. Combat Patrol, now that was THE SHIT.>>98925033I started in 2024 so have no experience with it sadly, but what made it good? I should check Wahapedia.
>>98925069Variety, Viability, Competitive ability. They were a real army and not a begrudged leftover by a new lead that got bottom blasted about being beaten by them too much.
>>98924753Change. They're forever tied to the chaos god of change and inversion. Which gets a bit more amusing when they're trapped as dust that can't change for eternity. Also the god of contradiction and lies so there's that.
>>98924878no thats normal mutilator kit
>>98924981>>98924973thinking of it, lootas don't have a model line nor rules now don't they?i kinda want to kitbash some for fun, what would be the most exotic weapons i could stick on them?
If collageanon is around, can I make two things for the collage? I want to make fun of space wolves but I also had another idea that could be silly.>captcha was a 6 pointed star
>>98925124consult a specialist asap
>>98925124>I want to make fun of space wolvesWe’re done with all that, pick another joke reference.
>>98925157shut the fuck up decalnigger, you dont speak for anyone here
I'm shit-tired of /tg/ now but I'll ask three questions on my way out:First, how exaggerated is the "space marines are a subscription" claim?Second, how fun are imperial knight mirror matches? I'd get into chaos knights but I like destriers as models, and and I don't like wardogs.

>>98925175>>98925186I don't think it did>no fake pec on carbuloGW is learning. The collar looks like utter shit tho
>>9892517140k is an awful system for titan fight night. I would consider looking into apocalypse or converting titanicus rules to 28mm.
>>98925175>Distraction from the Titan filesThat would make sense, but it seems like a rather odd distraction for a Titan leak
>>98925175Cool model, an improvement on their bland interpretation of bangels.Sadly I have tactical rock fatigue.
>>98925192>vampire cape very subtle
>>98925192New expression is lacking, old mini was better
>>98924234based wug
>>98925196Grim. Dark, even.
>>98925175>release worst battleforce probably ever for Blood Angels>immediately give them a codex and release new modelsThis feels out of touch. At least the BA box might get a price decrease, but even then I don't think it should cost more than a combat patrol. 1 of its units is not playable, and an upgrade sprue is not a model kit.Teasing literally any faction other than "space marines, but -something-" would also have helped prevent some of the non-marinefag whinging over the winter.The mouth and the hands do not communicate, and I'm pretty sure the brain has been out to lunch since 2015.
Can we agree Terminators should go up in points by 20%? Every marine fag in my area in now stacking termie bricks with either Calgar or some other character and it's just miserable.>>98925171Space marines are the army with the most units sent to legends while simultaneously having the most new kits. Even the first gen primaris release has some legends units now. Meanwhile, armies like Eldar, Tyranids, and Tau have legal models that are 20-30 years old and the legends units they have are typically just niche units or FW stuff (which I'm not even including in this discussion). Marines are the pay piggies of the hobby so us xenoschads can have better, game legal models for a long time :^) t. coper.
>>98925175>>98925186Kek GW knew they fucked up big time with the Sanguinary Guards
>>98925192I like the popped collar.
>>98925199Heh now that you mention it
>>98925186>>98925192What a strange time to reveal this
>>98925175new art as well
>>98925217It's to try and keep the BAfags from having more of a melty after they showed the dogshit battleforce.Hopefully BAfags are as autistic as guardfags and they don't let up until GW actually gives them something good instead of immediately capitulating.
>>98925217They need to adress the chaplain in xmas BF
>>98925188Never happened punk but nice try
>>98925197I don't know much about quality control but how does a full plastic sprue 'leak' like this? This seems to be the same guy who leaked the new Nobz and why can't they take some decent fucking photographs? We'd like to see the year on the sprue so we know when to expect it. Is this a deliberate marketing ploy? Or just a slip in competence?
>>98925208>Can we agree Terminators should go up in points by 20%?No, they're fine on a per model basis. The problem is similar or less-elite units (bladeguard, eradicators, eliminators etc.) are limited to 3s and 6s, not 10 where adding two characters becomes really points efficient. If terminators go to max 5 in a unit the problem goes away immediately.
>>98925175>>98925186I expect actual new DC chaplain and new Death Company, GW. Not the upgrade sprue bullshit
>>98925224On purpose
>>98925175>Release at 18:30 bong standard time, well after workAbsolutely done as an emergency measure, but for what? Seething bangels or the files?
>>98925224Most sprue leaks are incorrect boxes, like one I remember where someone got a new Skaven model sprue 6 months before Skaventide came out
>>98925208So there's a solid chance that if I buy some of the more out-there and interesting units, not all of them will last the decade? Guess I'm sticking with xenos for my second army then. Probably eldar, maybe orks.
>>98925220Heard GW capitulating and lower the box price. But we will see
>>98925224>I don't know much about quality control but how does a full plastic sprue 'leak' like this?These things are made months in advance of going on preorder. The leaks are almost never deliberate, GW always scrambles to reveal or tease something else when they come out.
>>98925192What can I say. The half deathmask is pretty cool
>>98925186>>98925175Oh hey look at that. Q2 2027 with Corbulo.The "leak" was right.
>>98925208They just need to be limited like other elite infantry. They should cap out at 6 and come in squads of 3, OR cap out at 5
>>98925242>Q2 2027The image says Q1 though
>>98925229To be fair, the video guy said the bangels are getting new miniature(s), not just one.
>>98925223
>>98925236If the price is the rumored $210 it's still 30 dollars more than a combat patrol for a combat patrol's worth of units, an upgrade sprue that isn't even fully game-legal because the box doesn't contain enough swords to make death company units, and a model you can't use because it's on the wrong base and has the wrong weapons for wysiwygIf they put a Baal Predator in it I still wouldn't buy that box but that would make it even more obvious they're going to Legends it too
>>98925252in the article GW says they are doing a Data Sheet for the Chaplain so the Christmas box model is legal
Might pause my marine army progress if new BA are so soon. I have a lot of terrain to paint and a unit of sisters I bought over a year ago just begging for it.
>>98925219Blood Angels are so fucking kewl, glad I chose them over Salamanders as my secondary Marines faction.
>>98925192>>98925186This kinda looks very lazily done.
>>98925217People are complaining that the BA battleforce is dogshit, this is a consolidation prize for them.
>>98925192>no extra plate on the vambrace and abdomen, just like Phobos>MkVII style abdominal cabling
>>98925256This makes it extremely obvious that it's a "get it out of the warehouse" box, and even more of the "hands don't talk to each other" thing.
>>98925261This was done in a panic for whatever reason; that's why it looks lazy
>>98925219notice how the sang guard dont have wings? Its because GW KNOWS they are fucking retarded and look out of place with the oc deviant faggot mary sue chapter.
>>98925219Pretty good, shame about the Sanguinary Guard bringing the piece down with his fat arse.
>>98925250But of course, the BF backlash would pale in comparison to what's coming if Corbulo is the only model they have for BA
>>98925192THE CORB
>>98925219>SG should look majestic, soaring through the air with their winged jump packs alongside the Sanguinor>Now they look like flappy bird insteadI will never forgive GW
>>98925192how come corbulo gets to have four truck nuts?
>they didn’t give Corbulo Primaris TittiesHe might be just a pity character for the edition but gosh does it look so much better without them.
>>98925173>didn't bother updating itlow effort
>>98925280Where else do you want him to store the geneseed?
Let Chaos Idols take this thread!
>>98925175>>98925186At any rate, I can almost see new BA models are something like this>Corbulo>New BA chaplain>New Death CompanyIt could be a great release but they will probably fuck up Death Company like they did with Sanguinary Guards
>>98925311>new Death Company release>instead of a bespoke kit it’s another upgrade sprue
>>98925208>20-30 years oldThe Basilisk and Chimera are both still using their 1995 models, they both just got repackaged in 2010. The Basilisk is the last "cartoony" skull in the entire model line.Next oldest is Ezekiel from 1996, then the Eldar Vyper and Falcon kits from 1997, then Catachans from 1999.Out of these, the Catachans are most likely to get sent to Legends or to get a remake; if they remake it, assume you're getting female bodies with femstodes-tier jawlines on the heads.
I can't believe GW actually capitulated to the angry Blood Angels fans and forced an early marketing release.
>>98925192>Rr W rolls in melee when below half-strenghtNot good, not bad. Just so so
>>98925316if the upgrade sprue is decent why not, get some HH kits instead
>>98925320They weren't going to make a basically OoP model good
blood angels....
>>98925208ONE BILLION POINTS TO HOUSE SCARAB OCCULT TERMINATORS
>>98924003Just imagine the cost.
>>98925319They have stacks of christmas boxes that need selling, what are they supposed to do?
>>98925319Surely at this point they have to know what they were doing with that box
>Space Marine Limited edition finally sold out onlineDid enough people buy it, or did GW pull it from sale like Armageddon?
>>98925311>It could be a great release but they will probably fuck up Death Company like they did with Sanguinary Guardswill have skull helmets and the little blood drop on the armour/abs but otherwise just be primaris, disappointing the people who wanted space wolf style mixed marks or legion of the damned firstborn
>>98925332The resin one is 900 bucks plus the cost of buying the gun arms, I’d wager the plastic one is gonna be a 500 buck purchase at least.
>>98925328>ONE (1) model>not even a unit, just a single named character for more Herohammer wank>hugeI know clickbait algorithm yadda yadda but holy shit
>>98925319>At first it was the shitty SG>And they doubling down even harder with the shitty BF that has shitty SG in itBA fans have every right to be mad, I know I am
>>98925345To be fair, the article says “miniatures” so it implies more are yet to come.
"Corbulo" is a silly name.
>>98925242So vect on barge and new kabalites/trueborn and a sslyth it is then.
>>98924931I bought the gsc box on ebay actually, last year.
>>98925192>literally releasing a guy named Glup ShittoGW is really struggling.
>>98925344Do I get a kiss when they fuck me?
>never ending marine wanknon marine bros, how are we holding up?
>>98925347You might get what you want if you mock GW hard enough like guardfags did for Steel Legion in plastic>>98925350Then at least give us an idea maybe?Just saying "miniatures" but only showing 1 and then not even hinting at what those others ones might be doesn't tell you anything, so people lose interestMarketing psychology and so on, you have to lead your customer on a little bit to keep them invested enough until the next purchase
>>98924833>XENOS MARINESFucking hire this man, he knows what GW wants
>>98925365The next four codexes are everything but Space Marines, anon, they even said so in the article>This is just one part of some incredible Warhammer 40,000 releases coming in the spring for Xenos, Chaos, and non-Space Marine Imperial armies.
>>98924855THEY SKINNED THOSE BABIES IN SELF-DEFENSE
>>98925368>coming in springare we going to have to wait 6 months between Codex: Custodes and the next codex? wtf is GW doing?
>>98925365I don't own any marines but if you're gonna get upset about marines this might not be the game for you.
He still fucks hard, the new mini can fuck off with its tactical rubble
>>98924753HEYWhy did you put the bass pro shop in there>>98925090>>98924759>>98924767because the Brotherhood of Dust was red and run by that guy who was Ahriman's rival who hated him and wanted to capture him, but then Ahriman magick'd him to dead and took over his army and remade them into blue guys because blue is new and different.There are still canonical red warbands of TS out there. It's just the Main Warband are Ahriman's guys.
>>98925372no next one is Tau they just announced this one super early for some reason, either due to the Titan leak or constant bitching about Blood Angels Christmas box
>>98925365I just bought 3 more Leman Russ kitsEverything will be fine unless they legends my belovedIf they do, I'm just done with 40k
>>98924747januaryIt's like how they announced KT nightmare in october 2023 but then didn't release it until may 2024 or something.>>98924731I know a nerd chick who likes legos. If I bought her that new one for 400 bucks do you think she'd go SPLOOSH?
>>98924214>>98924223back in time to this time in 2022 and stop myself from buying warhammer minis instead of investing into (whcih was my plan)
>>98925389She'd think you're trying to buy closeness rather than build it, your chances would go SPLOOSH. But, you'd have a nice lego set.
>>98925347The thing is that sanguard came out 2 years ago, the design pipeline is 3 years would have begin in 2023. The question is if the design language used changed significantly from 2021 to 2023 or if this will be more Primaris Death Company.Also the angels used to have their own special boy dreadnaught.>>98925365dark eldar not having anything squatted and getting a relatively quick codex turnaround is good.
>>98925387I imagine the Titan leak pushed things up, but the BA box sucking so bad and having a “illegal” model in it probably meant they had the article tee-d up anyways.
>>98925387>This is just one part of some incredible Warhammer 40,000 releases coming in the spring for Xenos, Chaos, and non-Space Marine Imperial armies.Spring doesn't start until April.
>>98925419March is in spring anon
>>98925404How come they make fantastic DA SW BT models and fucked up the BA? Unless they started the SG way earlier than the rest and can't back down anymore
>>98925424the end of march. meaning the reveal will be the last week of march and for sale in April.
>>98925192For the low price of $50 I'm sure.
>>98925404>dark eldar not having anything squattedHand is gone. Already vanished from the store. Won't be in the codex.
>>98925264They are evolving, just backwards (good)
>>98925437I’ll buy it
>>98925192They got rid of the crested knee pads, now they need to get rid of the ankle hub caps (and after that the back pack dome and armour).One day in the far future GW may actually correct it's horrendous fuck up and go back to mkVII again.
>>98925446>mkVIIMake it mkVI and you've got a deal
I will forgive GW if they do Erelim
>>98924957what did 10th do to them?I don't play xenos
>>98925461That's effectively suboden khan
>>98925444They just take designs from old suits, slap them on MkX and pretend it's some legacy shit. And then fuck HH suit designs so that neither system has suits that look like the suits they're pretending to be.
>>98925473Yea now make every marine that way tooMy first time seeing a space marine ever was a poster or box cover for I have no idea what 20some years ago with an Imperial Fist beakie staring an Ork in the face and thus the mkVI armor has always been "space marine" in my mind's eyeI want beakies without buying RG upgrade kits or HH models
>>98925427different designers
>>98925442Replaced by better kabalites/trueborn
>>98925479Isn't it great? The best part is that they could just go the extra mile and properly rip off the old marks, but they're too scared to actually do it, so we got pointless shit like the new intercessors, which are the worst of both worlds.What a time to be alive!
>>98925481You don't like HH mk6? Too small?
>>98925483The designers aren't the problem. The higher up made the call
>>98925489>What a time to be alive!
>>98925445I hope you like it tons anon.
>>98925274ITS CORBIN TIME
>>98925489I don't get what they're scared of.Angry primaris fanatics?Being unable to justify their positions if they aren't continuously reinventing the wheel?
>>98925319Bro nobody, NOBODY, was going to buy those xmas boxes unless GW did SOMETHING.
>>98925493The HH kits are *fine* but are noticeably like 5-10% smaller if you have them next to primaris partsThey're perfectly fine if you want to do CSM (and I do), but loyalists are harder to keep everything looking right. You either>kitbash and end up with slightly too small heads on primaris bodies and a pile of HH bodies left over (or bulbous oversized primaris heads on HH bodies)>build them as-intended and have to figure out a way to compensate for the height difference that doesn't look weirdSome way to get primaris-scale beakies in a quantity greater than 2 for $40 (outside of bits sellers) would be wonderful
>>98925489IncorrectThe legion of the damned is quite literally firstborn armour marksOnly blood angels get shafted.
>>98925467They can't. Erelim were just black sanguinary guard.Also there was only one squad of them for astorath's tower.
>>98924447This is all you need to do to turn this from kind of ugly to a high-tier paintjob. They're 90% of the way there.
>>98925514>what are they scared ofChange. They're not rational people.>>98925513I really like the dual optic being under rather than over, it's a good alt head.>>98925526I mix my primaris with firstborns, so I use the size difference for variety and making them more special.I don't think you'll ever get a proper primaris mk6 source, BUT, you can try and find STLs or even commission those bits, that can be expensive and you need to like proonting, but if you want to make a lot of marines and thus need a lot of those particular bits, it actually is less expensive than the official GW route.You're looking for helmets and torsos/bodies, mostly. Pauldrons you can get with HH/bit sellers, for the rest you shouldn't need more than a hobby knife and patience.
>>98925534>incorrectWe're talking about having primaris with old armor bits/style, the LotD kit is not primaris at all, so yes I am correct.
>>98925274>Sanguinary Guards have wings againHmmmm
>>98925611That's the Sanguinor
>blood angels battleforce was such a shitshow they had to show off a model and the codex release and reduce the price as damage control
>>98925192Honestly amazing. The wings on the leg plates and the gorget forming a vampire inspired collar looks cool.Neat chainsword too.
>>98925489>which are the worst of both worlds.Not really.I like the new primaris designs specifically because they mix design cues from the older armors.>but it's not the sameI don't care.
>>98925616Lame
>>98925319I also can't believe a company was responsive to their customer base. That hasn't happened since the Sonic movie
>>98925639In fairness, it's also a shiny thing to distract from the Warhound leak.
i just bought GW overpriced dice packsI feel a little shameful
>>98925192Gw delivering the first primaris model that isn't a downgrade
>>98924497I picked one up the other day but didn't get to assemble it yet since I also got some outriders which I prioritize to get ready. I think the printing quality is well enough. There is a slight texture and glossyness to most parts with some little details like the blue plasma balls being very smooth gloss varnished.
>>98924130>mechs aren't coolHoly faggt
>>98924447>>98925539Fuck, ok. I'm not going to mess woth sponges so I tried giving a few a thin coat of iyanden yellow to smooth shit out and make the yellow brighter. It does seem better so I guess I'll do the rest when I have time.
>>98925725I wonder how they paint this
>>98925743those look perfectly finedont listen to the peanut gallery here
>>98925758You've been permanently banned, shut up.
>>98925758yeah the coffee staining sure is similar to your sloppa lmao
>>98925758Really, these are the only models you won't insult?
>>98925750a UV laser that hits the resin at certain wavelengths that makes it turn to certain colors.
>>98925763>>98925767>>98925771That wasn’t me, idk if he was mocking me or not but I do find the models to be appealing.
>>98925758I don't mind taking advice, the yellow was a little weak.
>>98923993>TQI mean, that's not really possible for a human right? Aren't they basically land pirhanas
>>98925783What happened? Who are we shitting on?
>>98925783these morons eh?thinking you have a trademark on "peanut gallery"
>>98925790Never understood why they teased me over that term when it’s still widely used.
>>98925782do you mean the plastic or they coat the plastic in a material first then burn it? I moved to my own place some time ago and have a big enough table to host games, maybe I'll just grab one. Need to see my friend's first though.
>>98925365It's so bad I'm quitting 40k
>>98925379I don't like the proportions of the original mini, but it's far more dynamic
>>98925803Stop being an overly dramatic female
>>98925807This, whatever GW does is great. More marines, more diversity.
>watching poorhammer>they're doing a painting tier list>near the end of the video the host mentions they've only painted one army and the other host has only painted about 6 modelswtf why didn't you people tell me these faggots were retarded
>>98925819>watching warhammer youtube Why would you ever do that to yourself
>>98925365As a Tau player I'm full of hopium because plastic titan means we might actually get plastic Tigershark.
>>98925825>be newfag>see the videos have high views>think "alright i'll check it out"
>>98925819The poorhammer guys are such casual newfags it's crazy that they try to speak with any kind of authority at all. They just have better production values than most pngtubers because they have a pocket Argentinian to overwork and underpay
>>98925783You've been permanently banned, shut up.
>>98925632>I like the new primaris designs specifically because they mix design cues from the older armors.They don't.
>watch another poorhammer episode>they mention being so busy, needing to take breaks, but also hiring editors and producersWhat the fuck kind of scam is this, they just talk shit for 2 hours with random images
>>98925843Stop spamming the board like a whiny bitch
>>98925819they're magic players who decided to pivot to 40k when their podcast wasn't getting clicks.
>>98925848Some people have this thing called a job, you probably haven't heard about them before.
>>98925848It's basically what >>98925841 said. They have a large enough audience, sell merch/patreon money, can hold a decent conversation to retain attention, and outsource their editing to a Brazilian guy who would work at a much cheaper price.They're fun to listen to, but in no way they're an authority of any kind. But as a casual player myself, that's good enough for me.
>>98925868I painted thousands of points In 2 years and have a job Monday thru Friday. No excuses.
>>98925868If I recall one of them is a middle manager and the other is unemployed. They spend most of their time streaming videogames and getting their patrons to do their research for their opinions.
>>98925763>>98925767>>98925771The word "peanut gallery" isn't some sort of idiolect exclusive to the other party in your blood feud, you're just extremely poorly educated.
>>98925880Permanent
I listened to one they did with Bricky and I'm amazed he could stomach being interrupted and talked over with so many shit takes about units and rules changes they didn't understand. Hope he got paid well.
you guys got any fun ideas for a looted vehicle?it's just to have fun, not put in on a board with homebrew rules or anything
>>98925855You've been permanently banned, shut up.
>>98925891Bricky is a shitlord of a different brand but at least he has actually played 40k for many years. His videos have done irreparable damage to the secondary meme culture and understanding of the various factions though
>>98925892I always thought an "Orkanaut Ironclad" would be cool with Badrukk on the deck
>>98925892A wraith knight controlled via a system of levers and pulleys by a single mek on its back, like a giant puppet.
>>98925892There was a proxy SoB limo I saw about a while back that could be fun to orkify.
>>98925904Anyone who posts on youtube is going to be a retard of some description, there's no point trying to tier them.
>>98925891This ain't your blog bro. No one cares about youtuber slop.
>>98925192I compared the new stuff to the old stuff. The 2014 priest still clears all in terms of drip and unique design. 2024 is abject dogshit. But new Corbulo is pretty close to his old model and his art. Only things I can immediately notice as being "bad" are the loss of his skull on the belt area and how ridiculous the purity seals look, but that's just how GW does them now. Too long and flowy.His facial expression is lacking. He looks super stoic but that contrasts with his pose, which looks to be exuding an inspiring stance or a battle cry of some sort. So it clashes in a way that I think hurts the overall design. The second head with the half mask is interesting but I'm not sure I care for it. I think I'd have preferred a full mask, ideally without just being a mask stapled to the front of a Mark X helmet and having an actually fully unique helmet design. OR a vertical half mask like Tycho's, because that shit is sweet and I can't believe GW has never released a head like that.>tl;drPretty good, could be better. Mogs the fuck out of anything GW shat out for the BA in 2024 and Dante for that matter. Almost as good as Mephiston.
>>98925923>>98925921>>98925908what do you guys think of a plague bloat drone with a squigg instead of the demon thing? assuming i find one that fitsclean up a bit the filth and chaos pointy bits, add a few fins on engines and hull
>>98925199I appreciate what they're going for. It does look a little odd though. I think if they were going to do anything like that for anyone besides Mephiston it would have been cool to get Orloc of the Blood Drinkers as a model and make that part of his design. Feels kind of random to add that to Corbulo.
Is GW rolling back the Primaris designs? How long until we get a scaled up tactical squad?
>>98926012Are all space marine players brain damaged?
>>98926022If you still give GW your money you have to be. A little bit at least.
>>98926027Whats the purpose of coming to a thread discussing something you don't like?
>>98925954Comparing classic Corbulo to this new one really highlights how modern GW sculptors really struggle with the subtleties of posing; you can see that the classic model's entire body is bent towards the task of holding the grail up as high as he physically can like a snapshot of a person actually in motion, while the new model looks like somebody deliberately posing for a photograph or something. I also like how they've copied his right foot being on his toes seemingly without understanding why the classic model is doing that.
>>98926032I asked a question. You started being rude.GW has been consistently introducing older SM design elements back into the range. You are being defensive for no reason.And the joke about giving GW money...well they are fucking expensive. Do I really need to explain that joke?
>>98926036In fairness the old model is a one piece miniature (well two with the backpack) so it makes sense it will look more dynamic as a 2D image. The new one may look better in person, where you can get a sense of depth.
>>98926036It's a generic pose. But you are looking to far into it with the foot thing. The problem with the new model is its top heavy with the design. Which worked well for older models since they squat, but the newer ones it makes it look weird.
>>98926049Wow you're a massive faggot
>>98926059No, I'm just not throwing a tantrum like you. Touch grass or whatever the kids say.
>>98926049>GW has been consistently introducing older SM design elements back into the range.More like older design elements have always been included in primaris and literally nothing has changed. Fools were claiming the same thing back when 10th launched and sternguard had some old helmets and studded greaves. It's pure copium at this point. Tactical marines aren't coming back.
>>98926049Primaris look better than firstborn.
>>98925973Could be cool, make sure you add one of your buddies' minis getting run over by the mower
>>98926070Now that is just wrong. The exposed power cables in the mid section, the mk6 style greaves, the mk7 and mk8 helmets were not in any of the early generations of the kits. They are mixing them into the range now though. The 11th ed heroes all had older bits on them.>>98926073If you like them that's good for you. Dunno what everybody here is so angry about.
>>98926073Agreed. The old models looked like shit
>>98925954It looks like the new guy is way less ornate compared to the old ones, like the new one is missing teardrop gems and everything.
>>98926090They didn't look like shit, but god damn is it obvious how fucked the proportions were. Skinny, skinny legs.
>>98925242I mean most of the leak, was stuff from valrak, who is mostly correct on leaks.
>>98925829What's that? Another, bigger, even more expensive and overpowered walker that's ugly as sin and directly contradicts the lore of the tau nnot using giant walkers because they're fucking stupid? Right on it, vesa!
>>98926157I remember back when all the giant walkers were canonically the result of one lunatic engineer and his team embezzling resources intended for a new stealth suit project to create a series of increasingly deranged prototypes because this guy had a fetish for giant robots or something.
>>98926157Tau thought titans were stupid until the kept losing to titans.
>>98925863damn, magic players have no loyalty huh? the quartering did the same shit, albeit he pivoted to general pop culture instead of 40K stuff.
>>98926181You know he sort of looks like a space wolf player. Onions vibes.
>>98926181Quartering IIRC was because he got banned by wizards from official events. He's also a money hungry cuck, so I'm not sure he's the best representative of any group he finds himself in.
>>98926181Except quarterman was successful for a couple of years and these dudes were shite from day 1
>>98926183He looks pretty normal not sure where you’re getting wolf vibes, maybe the beard?
>>98926183not even joking, I’d imagine if he didn’t pick ultramarines for his grift, he’d be a space wolves player because they’re “masculine and trad and based”
>>98926186So was quarter pounder, he was just somewhat successful and shite.
>>98926173Titans ARE stupid, the only reason the imperium has them instead of a load of ordinatii with void shields and armour is because the admech are schizosand tau titans are specifically mentioned to be solely for static defence, meaning the legs are EVEN MORE USELESS
>>98925847They do.
>>98926236Void Shields are just the ultimate tactical conundrum for the Tau because the only solution to them is to drop the guns and pick up a melee weapon and that's anathema to their own war doctrines.
>>98926246Nuh uh
>>98926070>literally nothing has changed>More like older design elements have always been included in primarisSo they have changed.
>>98926249Or, y'know, just shoot them from beyond the horizon with the giant starship-grade railguns mounted on the giant aircraft that the Tau really like using. That also works.
>>98925305>Let Chaos Idols take this thread!
>>98926259Has that ever worked before?

>>98926274YOUR CRINGE
>>98926276my cringe what?
>>98925798i believe they coat it in a resin, then apply the lasers to the sprue. if you get close, it's very bumpy. Like someone primed it with a spray can on a bad day. but at arm's length it looks good. for $400 it is expensive, and who knows how long it will be the correct footprints for the 'legal' mission maps.but if you want someone else to do all the work for you and you're willing to pay for it, there's not much else like it.
>>98926281YOUR CRINGE OPINIONSUCKS
>>98925863That explains why they wank of the Timmy, Johnny, Spike archetypes so much, even though they don't really work in a war game all that well
>>98926288noooooo
Looking grim painting-wise this month, gonna be glued to forever
>>98926036I 100% agree with you but also still think the new Corbulo is leagues ahead of the awful primaris Dante/Astorath/Sanguinor models.
>>98926309What are you even saying?
A whole lot of people not posting models in this thread.
>>98926333Be the change you want to see. unless you're banned.
>>98926052That's the thing, they made use of a limitation to make something good. Today they have none of such limitation and somehow fail.
>>98926333I haven't painted anything in a few weeks been busy.
>>98926246>they doMk7 helmets and mk6 pauldrons isn't mixing older patterns.
>>98926333We got plenty of modelers in here pal
>>98926336I already posted mine but here are some orks.
>>98926349>orks wearing orange holy based
>>98926349what does the color orange mean to orks?
>>98926356I have four colours for cloth and three for armour and just mix and match as necessary.
I really want to play Chaos Knights but don't want to be instantly countered by anti-tank lists. I want them to be decently rounded and viable. What do
>>98926387I too browse reddit from time to time.
>>98926374>I really want to play a skew list army but don't want to play against the only way to beat my army"I specifically dug this hole in the ground for myself, and now I'm stuck in it"That said, your options are>exclusively play with the Iconoclast Fiefdom detachment and still know your opponents will think you're a cunt for bringing 3/4 of your army list as knights either way>play a different army and ally knights in as your vehicles (CSM being your only option)>only play other knights or tankspam listsYou don't get to have your cake and eat it.
>>98926073>>98926090w rizz, my twinthose unc ahh firstborn are skibidi ohio
>>98926387Is there some template people are using to make all of these or are they all from one commissioned artist or something?
>>98926399either way, its kind of weird how consistently awful they are.
>>98926343Hellblasters?
>>98926399It's the same artist. You can easily tell because all of them are signed.
>>98926402Having never actually read any of the cringy fan fiction texts, I'm going to assume most of them these days are just AI generated slop.
I guess I'll post some older models since you faggots won't
>>98926415
>>98926333IM STUDYING
>>98926415Those are old models? Fuck. I can feel myself fading. It's over. I'm old.
>>98926427Older as in I painted them a while ago.>>98926423
>>98926406You do realize I already painted them right?
>>98926437Posting models has scared away the secondaries and now the thread is kill
>>98926442You did? I hope you remembered to remove any pubes and dust. You did properly remove any mould lines and sprue nubs too, right? Any true hobbyist would.
>>98926479stop gatekeeping chud. having pubes and massive pieces of sprue on your models is totally valid
>>98926415My bikes. I just got five more, but I don't know if I should also paint them in orange. I painted these over black primer and I learned my lesson.
HH MkVI Christmas battleforce has:>10 Raptors>1 Chaos Rhino>1 Chaos Predator Destructor>20 Legionaries/Red Corsairs Raiders/Chosen/Havocs>1 Chaos Lord/Red Corsairs Reave-Captain>1 Helbrute/Daemon PrinceThe only things you'd need are wysiwyg weapons from the HH upgrade sprues or kitbashing with the "correct" kits.Why should I not do this? This is over 1k points of CSM for like $250
anyone got a meta ranking of tyranid units?i've got a couple leviathan halfs, a foot tyrant, some genestealers and a norn emissary, and im wondering where to go next with my collection. i dont need to 100% copy and paste a cheese lists or anything but i'd like an idea of what to buy next because i dont have enough money to get everything in the range
>>98926496Fuck me, those look great!
>>98926415Painted this boxnought for last month's collage.
>>98926423Hey I remember when you painted these. Nice
>>98926501Biovore
>>98926513mmmmvore
>>98926415Have something old of mine too
>>98924707The most bizarre ones are the people selling broken/incomplete or "converted" old metal models still with a huge markup. Like yeah dude, I'm sure people really want to pay $80 for that metal character with its arm and head cut off.
>>98926479I’m a better modelers and hobbyist than you could ever dream of being
>>98926560
>>98926560Decalbuddy...
>>98925242It's not hard to guess Corbulo when the only other BA character is Tycho who's dead.
>>98926560Post models
>>98926560You couldn't do in a year what others here did in a month.
>>98926584Does he need to? It'll be the same knights/space wolves or those dusty hellblasters
>>98926584
>>98926605Lmao
>>98924051I think we're well past the point of pretending that these are leaks and not "leaks".>>98923993>TQOne Ripper, sure; a single model's worth of them, probably; but they're called a Ripper *Swarm* for a reason.
>>98925381It's still crazy to me that the first Ahriman book has a Stand battle and a magical girl transformation sequence
>>98926596I did it in one weekend dipshit
I think I want to find the faggot that came up with this and beat them with a brick in a sock because what the hell is this shit.
>6 hours after>built, magnetized, primed>game in 15 hourssurely i'll manage to finish telemon-kun on at least 1 weapon setup by then right...
>>98926501Get a neurolictor.
>>98926654The blasties in question:
>>98926643what seems to be wrong anon? the fact that imperium was portrayed in not-good-guy light compared to some totally-not-cravers OC xenos race?
>>98926657yummy public hair
>>98926669must be getting the ballsack musk all over it, so the wolves know its his models.
>>98926643This whole "trend" has been increasingly unfunny and pretentious as retards try to subvert the original observation. >>98926667>totally-not-cravers OC xenos raceI think it's supposed to be a DAOT survivor society
>>98926500The fact you’re making this post instead of simply just doing it betrays the doubt in your heart…
Someone else make a new thread. I dont feel like doing it anymore
>>98926667Cravers are just 'nids with extra steps, aren't they?>>98926676>I think it's supposed to be a DAOT survivor societyI don't think it's supposed to be anyone in particular; the ancient machine intelligence is a LoV thing, but that's not what the Votann do (as far as I care to know) and "trying to commit deicide so humanity doesn't go extinct" is Ynnari, but they're doing it so the Eldar don't go extinct.
>>98926501It's tough to say because we're supposedly getting a Nids codex early next year, so the meta can and will change. BUT as other anons have pointed out, biovore and some type of Lictor/Neurolictor or two (or both) are really good. Brain bugs (neurothropes) have almost always been good, so getting a couple sets of them will let you run a big brick with one of your neurotyrants, or two squads with Tyrant plus 3 'thropes. You should get hormagaunts, at least 20, with some lashwhip primes. See if you can't get a couple Termigaunt weapon upgrade sprues on eBay or a from a recaster. I think those would be essentials for what you already have. See if you can't trade one of your screamer killers and Neurotyrants for some other big monsters. Tyranofex is the big "fuck you" gun and is always funny. You can magnetize it for all options. I like Exocrines for shooting as well which you can also magnetize into a Haruspex. Malceptors have been carrying hard lately but they're expensive. These units will let you play a pretty classic Tyranid style with the stuff you already have.
>>98926686Money is an object, you know?That's where the doubt comes from, not wanting to feel like I'm wasting my money or digging a hole by buying something that will ultimately require about the same amount of money spent as just buying the intended products (but require far more work).
>>98926689I’ll do it, but I’m kinda retarded, can you spoonfeed me a good TQ :)
>>98926703>TQ:Why havent you complained about your faction more? It just worked for blood angels
He's sexy and I want to have sex with him
>>98926500if this is the core that you want for the army start go for it
>>98926712He's so gay and you know he rides like a pornstar
>>98926695I dunno man, techfap enlightened human society that's like a shittier version of the already-shitty The Culture series that fixes all of the imperium's problems by being LE REASONABLE and will defeat the evil imperium and free humanity from my dad - err, I mean the Emperor - is exactly what the fancanon for DAOT survivors was for the longest time.
>>98926710ooh that’s a good one.Page 8New Thread>>98926720>>98926720>>98926720
>>98926676I swear bad guy armies in most sci-fi and fantasy media always tend to look cooler than the good guys. I don't know why. Warhammer 40k is no exception. Maybe that's why I like all the 40k armies.
>>98926721Perhaps.
>>98926667it's more that it reeks of mary sue shit. I don't mind the Imperium being portrayed as the bad guys, I'm cool with that. The issue is that these guys read as better than the fucking Tau, and that's a problem. The fishfaces might be the generally most morally "good" out of all the factions barring the Farsight Enclaves, but you put them in ANY other sci-fi setting and they'd be the bad guys, and I LIKE that fact.>>98926721>I dunno man, techfap enlightened human society that's like a shittier version of the already-shitty The Culture series that fixes all of the imperium's problems by being LE REASONABLE and will defeat the evil imperium and free humanity from my dad - err, I mean the Emperor -this entire little bit basically summed up my issues with the piece in a nutshell.
>>98926342>mixing older patterns isn't mixing older patternsIt by definition is.
>>98926402Not like GW's is any better honestly.
>>98926676>This whole "trend" has been increasingly unfunny and pretentious as retards try to subvert the original observation.If it only takes fancy clothes to make you change your opinion, you're a person with no depth.
>>98927642That wasn't even what was being said, you /pol/ brained retard
>>98926387nice art>femarinerejected
>>98927581If you miscontrude a point until it become a technicality or ticking a box, that's just bad faith, and you know it.Now what are you gonna do? Try to pretend this is an actual sound argument made with honesty? Which it isn't, or drop the act and quit wasting both our times? We both know you'll do none of that.
