It's a balancing act. I certainly don't get as much play time as I used to since my kids were born but I still make time to hobby and chatting about the game makes me feel engaged with that part still to some extent.

But these early years with my daughters are just a season. When they get older they won't demand as much of my attention all the time and I'm sure I'll miss it when it's gone.

I've decided to quit 40K for good. I came back after being gone for a while and this edition is just shit, I can't drink and play at the same time because keeping track of scoring every round is too demanding and easily a 1/3rd of my Ork army went to legends since I last played a few editions ago. I'm going all in on Gundam Assemble because I like the UC and AC timeline mobile suits in the game. It also cost a hell of a lot less to build a decent force.

To be not an ass, I won't post banshee butts or kustodes knockers this time around.

Yes
If you mess up then GW comes to your house and shoots your dog.
You prime it first, if you paint on the bare plastic the paint will flake off after its dry.

>>98940051
Prime it first or the paint will bead up on the model and not go where you want it. It will also be very quick to flake off with any amount of handling.
Blank bases also kinda suck and you love the 10 fully painted vp

Fine. Fix Wolf Guard Battle Leader that he is a Support character not Leader, so he's like other Lieutenants. Or just do what they used to do and say that any Lieutenant just replaces that title with Wolf Guard Battle Leader. That was a rule that disappeared, not a Legends'd model.

Necrons: robotic lynxes, (pets of the nobles), possibly with a royal beast master

Tau: dedicated FPV drone team (dedicated indirect unit, alt build on sniper drone team refresh)

Guard: mine defusing tank with a huge flail on the front like the sherman crab

Votann: grappling hook dwarves and a drill tank with deep strike, impact mortals for days

I'll be honest in that I haven't really kept up with the recent editions of the game and a lot of what I see is through a competitive lens, but how do you guys even play this game anymore? With all the odd and arbitrary tournament rules and "balance" the whole game just seems incredibly unfun

GW paints are pricey, look at competitors to start with, such as:

>AK Interactive
>Vallejo
I have used all 4 of these, my preference in order is AK>Army Painter>Vallejo>GW. Take this preference with a grain of salt, but know you can also try a bunch of paints and different brands to see what works for you.
You can order paints online. if your concern is them drying out in shipping, think about how they got to the store.
Do not use craft store paints.
>slapchop
Don't do this
If you must follow youtube man for your painting, watch this Duncan Rhodes video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rz76A0Jpp7E
It's mainly for how to use different brushes and how to handle paints, but his technique demonstrations are also very useful as a newcomer.
Fwiw, Duncan has his own paint line (Two Thin Coats) but I have not used it because it is pricey for me due to shipping. Definitely check it out if you're a Bong though.

>>98940153
The game is only fun when you're playing it casually with friends but a lot of people don't have friends who play so they're stuck going to tournaments and pick up games at the LGS. GW's pivot to catering exclusively to people who will buy a new 2000pta army every other year is squeezing the last money they can out of the hobby before 3D printing is wide spread enough to make them irrelevant.

>>98940127
>For paints, do you all use the little pots or are there generic paints I can get elsewhere for cheaper?
There are plenty of hobby paints but yes, you will bust your ass paying for them. Hobby paints are designed to have self-leveling properties (most brands nowadays, at least) and low pigment particle sizes for preserving minute details on models. Their pigments are non-toxic (composed to the noxious shit a real artist could get, like cadmium red) and the binding medium is typically a mixture of water and acrylic, which hardens into a plasticy shell once it evaporates.
Despite the price a single 15-20 ml pot will last you a fair while, especially if you use a dropper over the citadel paint pots. I'd estimate that the "primary" paint you use for basecoating or the main color scheme will last you around 40-50ish average sized dudes or 12-15 vehicles if you're adept with rationing how much you use.
>I was looking at this ''slapchop'' method, should I bother or just slap some paint on some primed stuff?
This is a matter of opinion, really. Slapchop is seen as "lazy" when it's really just zenithal priming (light on top, dark on bottom) with contrast paints, but it makes perfectly serviceable models. It's also an effective way to save money; a more critical painter will hand select the tones they want for shading, which can produce a better looking result but also cost you a bit in the long run.
Also, on the topic of which paint to buy: anything you find in an LGS is good. The big 6 that people recommend, in no particular order, is:
>Citadel
>Army Painter
>Vallejo
>AK
>Two Thin Coats / TTC
>Monument Hobbies / Pro Acryl
All of these paint brands have their differences that you'd need to experience for yourself to grasp.

Good stuff, I'm looking at getting some cheaper paint brushes from somewhere like Michaels or even wal-mart, but it looks like the only things I'll need from the hobby store are the plastic cement and the paints.

Thanks again!

Can I paint my Necrons bright yellow and red?

>>98940370
Make all the stupid jokes you want, gunplay kits are still better than anything GW makes.

>>98940391
To start out you can get away with the el cheapo brushes you find at Michael's or Hobby Lobby. Just make sure you get sizes that are small enough for the models you're painting.
Size 0 brushes are good for marine-size minis and basecoating in general, but something smaller like guardsmen or detailing in general has had me use 3/0, 5/0 and 10/0 brushes for some of the smaller stuff.

You're also likely to run into people suggesting a wet palette to you soon; consider it, but don't buy one until you've started painting a bit and know if you plan to really get into the hobby side of 40k. You can try out the same general experience with a plastic container lid, some paper towels and a bit of parchment paper; you can find a video showing how to make one if you must try one before buying.

>>98940404

Of course. The original codex had a lot more colorful schemes. For some reason GW decided to move their personality from unfeeling Terminator-style robots to goofy saturday morning cartoons, but move from the colorful schemes to everyone just being the same kind of dark and drab.

If you want your dudes to be from Tomb World McDonald IV you can totally do that.

>>98940428
presumably what you put a present in. Get the present first, before you buy the box. Otherwise you may get the size wrong.

The GW armysets are always a mixed bag. They usually give you some shelfwarmers along with something useful. Really depends on which box you are looking at.

>>98940428
>What is a Christmas box
Christmas discount box that has a bunch of models in it as a starter for an army
>should it be my first purchase
Buy a single box of a unit that you like the box art of for the army you have in mind, build and paint it, and then consider the Christmas box if you want a jump-off point into the army itself.
Some of the Christmas boxes are good, some not so much, so what army you pick also depends.
For example, the Chaos Space Marines box is very good from a gameplay, value and model variety perspective, but the Blood Angels box is horrible all-around, or the Space Wolves box, which is very good from a gameplay perspective and decent from a value one, but is lacking in variety.

A box released during christmas, typically selling models at a 30-39% discount (So like ~$400 worth of models for $255)

Depends, have you built/painted any type of miniature in the past before? If you haven't spending $250+ dollars on a big starting purchase might not be the best idea. If you have it's a very solid way to start an army, I started Knights with the box they released a few years ago (Pic related).

you don't have to go that far. Oddly enough 18 is the number of colors that Beard is using on custodes that kinda can be done in sub 10 and still look okish. If you're going for table level and not close up on them often having a battle-ready army is just a few colors

>>98940465
You could get to 18 paints pretty quickly, even with a simple scheme if you shade and highlight every color in multiple steps.
3 Colors over black primer can totally work. There was a time (early 3rd ed) when Black Templars where the poster child for SM because that's how GW painted them. Black primer, grey edge highlight, white on the pads and red for the eyes.

Using more paints doesn't mean the end result is any better though.

I don't play Necrons so I'm not the most reliable source on that box in particular, but everything in that box seems like a good addition as a complete newcomer to the army
It has everything you'd want to start out Necrons, and 2 models (C'tan and Ammentar) that you'd probably want to buy anyway.

On their own at GW prices that box would be ~$377. The discount is to $255 for being a Christmas battleforce, so you're saving $127 at GW prices. Very good discount that could net you another vehicle, or a bunch of supplies and tools with the freed up cash.
If you shop around you could probably find it a bit cheaper from a 3rd party vendor if you wanted, but no promises.

retailers/lgs have them cheaper usually because they need the margin to operate and still shelf the product. Looking at the /othergame/ that launched with it's native storefront having competetive prices the retail threw a fit that their margin was extremely thin so following that the manufacturer site is now either offering at higher or gave retail more of a workign window on their side.

If the Drukhari are so good at fleshcrafting and are existentially compelled to be freaky as hell all the time, how come most of them are so normal-looking? On paper, you'd expect them to basically be meat admech, with all kinds of horrible new limbs and organs you don't want to think about, but…

TSons should have been some gimmicky Forge World CSM Warband with how much they subvert what CSM Tzeentch Marines should be by turning them into unchanging, nonmutant automatons

DG, WE, EC are all perfect generic Monogod aligned Warbands. You can use their rules and models for your own donut steel generic monogod warband and it works great. Can't do that with TSons. Those guys can only ever be TSons in particular. Way too themed and limited in scope, not generic enough.

Ironically your mindset is exactly why the problem you're complaining about exists. Fanservice used to be a part of all things and tastefully sprinkled about in light or heavy fashion, depending on taste. But then people started calling the slightest bit of sex appeal "gooner incel cringe" and what have you so sex appeal and fanservice got siloed off to its own corner. And since it was siloed off and no longer had to remain tastefully risqué, it went full on pornographic with every slider maxed out at all times.

And it's all because of people like (you) who complained about the Slave Leia Sororitas on the DEldar Jabba Skiff.

So depending on where you want to go with your kill team, I see two choices here depending on if you want a little more skin showing (they are slaves after all). Swap out the hands or adjust the weapons, and if you want good looking faces (again, slaves for a reason) you should look for other model faces to go with it. Plenty of Nun with Gun heads to choose from.

Keep in mind when you order from Amazon. They use product classifications to determine how things are packaged and treated. Model kits are labeled as Toys and often get manhandled and thrown around with little packaging.

There is a certain size of model kits you do not want to order from Amazon. If it has small parts on a sprue and is slipped inside a cardboard box it’s fine. If it is a big model whose contents come in a cardboard tray that slides out of the box it’s fine. But if it is something like a monster, with large individual parts, that comes on sprues that are slipped into a single cardboard box, it has a chance of getting stressed and bent. I had this happen with a Psychophage, it’s just a single sprue slipped into a rectangle box.

Well this thread sure slowed down.

The second point I'll give you an undeserved (you). Not wanting an "obscene hourglass figure" can mean quite a bit ranging from "just not a character maker style" to "why are they not built like a western AAA game female". So I'm trying to test the waters. Also why I mentioned swapping the heads to actually attractive heads. Those on the second page are pretty GW tier, frankly.

I was gonna say suicide bombers but we have the Krieg engineers with their remote mine and I remembered anon who made a beastman suicide bomber proxy. I haven't seen his models in a while, but I hope he is doing alright. Anvil Industry put out beastman bits and hopefully from Anvil I can use their cultist bits and some of their sci-fi stuff to make a religious communicator "guide" for the "remote mine" unit.

Honestly I think an "at ease" model is the best choice to add to the range. Like the metal Cadian at ease model. I can only see him as a Warhammer world exclusive or Warhammer store exclusive. I think GW mostly makes their models for use in the wargame so at ease models are a rarity in the 40k line. I remember the ForgeWorld DKOK at ease resins and that's about it.
