With the limited roster at launch, how long do you think it'll take to get more factions for these games and who will be first? Like Chaos is obviously a priority because GW is gay, but shitblile Tau and Votann will surely take years right?
i bet she shits with that chest butt
Votann will absolutely be last, nobody gives a fuck about them.
>>734897382You mean TW:W40K.
>>734897382within reason, is chaos known for its fighting against necrons?alot of matchups i just dont see happening because the relevant parties have no beef/nothing to gain from fighting each other>DELDAR/CHAOS/Necrons vs Nids (the necrons probably find the necrons not giving a fuck about biomass, pleasant, and vice-versa)>Necrons v Chaos>Tau v Chaos (because tau have poor warp presence and so do not advance the chaos agenda, nor do the chaos tend to operate in the remote areas the tau currently do?etc
>>734897382i dont think dow4 will be successful enough to get more than 1 expansion. theyll add chaos and maybe eldar and then call it a day
>>734897789Anon, it's 40k. Anyone will fight anyone else for any reason, that's the point. Yes, within lore there's no real reason for the Tyranids to fight chaos because typically there's no biomass for them to consume, and Chaos doesn't like to fight Necron because there's nothing really there for them to corrupt. But it's literally the point of the setting. >"Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods."
>>734897382CSM will be first for TW:40k, because they already were playable in first playtest. We know this from leaks. Guard was initially a handful of npc units, but switched places with CSM.CSM won't be a preorder bonus because braindead retards complained about preorder factions being free, so they will just be released after release separately and paid as such.Unless Lord Pack equivalents will be first. Wraith units are curiously missing from what was shown, meanwhile almost all Aspect Warriors showed up in concept art. This leads me to believe Biel-tan and Ulthwé are in a base game. Might be that first expansion will be stuff like Iyanden with Wraith units.>>734897789all of those happen and Tau were invaded by Death Guard recently even
>>73489788640k fags will eat any slop, especially marineslop. It'll be successful.
Is this the Taucow thread?
>>734898318I mean, it can be.
Who actually cares about Eldar beyond coomersAnd even coomers like the Tau moreMarines, Orks, and Eldar is like the most retarded launch combo ever
>>734898113im balancing it with the conniving nature of chaos>tau>necron>nidsjust doesnt push their agendaim also trying to push for a case because OP sounds like they have chaos fatigueand frankly I agree if it means another fucking DLC solely dedicated to only chaosIM frankly sick of non expacs
>>734898473Eldar are actually fucking cool as he'll, they have the best aesthetic in the setting. It's just that GW shits on them more than any other faction in the lore. And coomers have mostly moved onto Tau at this point I feel.
>>734898473>Marines, Orks, and Eldar is like the most retarded launch combo everhonestly i think its pretty old school for onboardingwarcraft people will find it familiar4>humans v orks>introduce elfs as conniving
>>734898473>Marines, Orks, and EldarAdd Tyranids and that's the core
>>734898318it is now
>>734897382I'll give those tits a propa ganda.
>>734898473>Marines, Orks, and Eldar is like the most retarded launch combo everThose are the OG Rogue Trader factions you clown.
>>734898686This bitch wouldn't even fit in a Tau Supremacy suit cockpit with all that meat.
>>734898686Those milkers could feed an entire cadre for weeks...
>>734898473Eldar are a faction where they have to be given bad lore otherwise they'd eclipse everh other xenos faction and several Imperial ones. Even WITH bad lore Eldar are a fairly popular army and faction. Tjey have an almost entirely modern model range, have several three subfactions beyond regular Craftworlds, have some of the widest unit and gameplay variety to offer, and are constantly the strongest faction on tabletop.The only reason Eldar seem unpopular is because most of the 'fanbase' (i.e., Twitter and YT crowd) only care about memes and lore footnotes.The Eldar refresh this edition was legitimately one of the most successful waves in the past few years, and even beat our some Marine waves.To put it bluntly, Eldar are a casual filter.
>>734898473The coomers don't like the Eldar, retard. Actual fans of the Eldar like them for their aesthetics and lore.
>>734899175What if I like Eldar lore, aeathetics, AND porn?
>>734899175And gameplay of course. It does help that they have the best looking models in the game.
>>734899175eldar smell like shit
If all these Tau chicks have titanic tits, then how do they fit into their battlesuits?
>>734898473>Who actually cares about Eldar beyond coomersMe, space elves have peak visual aesthetics. They're so intrinsically fascinating that the finest of GW's dogshit writing and humiliation rituals can't take them down.
>>734899175>The coomers don't like the EldarLook I agree that the coomers (like me) are paying the Eldar less attention these days but don't just fucking lie like that man.
>>734899237It took literal decades, but they finally came.We even got a new Vyper.
>>734899094as a kid i thought they were gaythen by 2 all their sleek designs were growing on menow as a cultured person i can say every race has its design nicheand eldar is no less great than any of the other racesim still iffy on the look of greenskins though, namely how space marine-y their armor lookswhereas their armor used to be more freeform like picrel
>>734899549Every faction in 40k has an appreciable design niche.Except Custodes. Fuck them. Never should have been a faction to begin with.
>>734899326If your ilk actually liked the eldar you wouldn't spam you banal smut in every eldar discussion and push that garbage Yvraine x Guilliman race mixing fetish shit.
>>734899638Buddy I probably like Eldar the most here and I'd say Yvraine x Guilliman is the best part of her, considering how fucking bad of a character she is.
TWW:40k DLC release schedule:>LaunchOrksEldarMarinesImperial Guard>First yearChaosUnique chapter pack (SW, BA, RG, some shit like that)Tyranids>Second YearTauDark EldarMechanicusUnique chapter pack>Third YearVotannNecronsUnique chapter packSisters of Battle>Fourth YearSmaller DLC packs like character stuff
>>734899638Boohoo shithead.
>>734899635>Except Custodes. Fuck them. Never should have been a faction to begin with.nah they're finejust space marines, but for assholes or people who play tabletop and dont want to fill in a x point army AND paint more than 6 dudes
>>734899732An absolutely retarded opinion only someone who "likes" the eldar for porn brained reasons would hold. Human x Eldar romance shit is fucking garbage, always, and the only people who like it are race mixing fetishists.
>>734899857>>734899638>muh racemixback to /pol/ with ye
>>734899780Chaos didn't show up as a fully developed faction in Fantasy until Warhammer 3. Why do you think they'll show up early here?The focus will be on Xenos vs Imperials and then Chaos will show up as a last hoorah when CA senses fatigue for the game setting in.
>>734897382Going to be Custodes made entirely of ugly women to show how Girls Get it Done. Partly because GW pushing for them and partly because of huge warning signs in some of the game shows
>>734899916This is a psychotic opinion. 40k writers have an enormous boner for Chaos to the detriment of everything else. 99% of all 40k related events are marines vs chaos marines. Chaos will be one of the first things released and I'm shocked it's not included in the base game.
>>734899857I have over 7,000 points of Eldar, anon. I even have the Ynnari Triumvirate. That doesn't mean I think fondly of Yvraine or feel insulted over memes of her getting piped.
>>734899916Chaos has no "need" to show up until there's more excuses for them to show upnamely we need the imperium to be in the game so chaos is better implemented narratively/nonprematurely
>>734898686I would soooo penis in her ass.
>>734897382These giant tits would unironically be hotter contrasting a real Tau's face
>>734900067Don't talk to it. It's a known shitposter who has no models and plays no games. It has a mental illness and shouldn't be taken seriously.
>>734900067isnt yvraine a deldar?
>>734898686did (You) gen this
>>734900110Like this?
>>734900057Dude, Fantasy writers literally let Chaos win the whole setting. The same shit applies. You fags were literally saying the exact same shit every Fantasy Total War game release
>>734900145Ynnari are technically part of the Eldar Codex, so legally no. Lore-wise, kinda? Not any more? She's a fucking mess.Her model is fairly nice though, as is the Visarch. Fuck the Yncarne though, that piece of shit is awful to paint. Never even finished mine because of how dangly the damn thing is.
>>734897489I keep forgetting Votann exists.
>>734898318I think they would work better with extremely thick thighs
>>734900281You and everyone else.
For me, 40k lore always sound like a 10 yo trying to explain to you his story just after he ate like 4 ice creams.
for me its 8 foot tall muscular but still with huge tits tomboy fire caste warriors with big futa horsecocks they use to mindbreak, indoctrinate and impregnate sisters of battle and female astra militarum members to the tau empire to create more hybrid gue'vesa auxiliaries so maKKKage can finally be taken
>>734900359Ok, please stand in front of the multi melta so I can kill you.
>>734900414>Ok, please stand in front of the multi melta so I can k- *GUCK GUCK GAWK GAWK*
>>734900073Yeah. So they'll be close to last
>>734900073>still thinking in concepts of "need" or narrative They'll be one of the first factions in because they're "the bad guys" and that's all it takes. Chaos was a base game faction in TWW1.
>>734897443Is there proof of Tau females shitting? Someone needs to post it if true
>>734900067I got the Ynnari Triumvirate as well, because the Viszarch looked fantastic. The other two models are kind of meh.I simply despise the god damn smut spammers who use any excuse to post that fucking garbage whenever Eldar are discussed.
>>734900776theyre bovine based so they shit and brap a lotimagine the smell
>>734897489Well, they are in Mechanicus 2.
>>734897382>>734898318>>734898686>>734900158Tau don't look like that
>>734899175>>734899237>supposedly no one cares about the eldar>their story arc gets aborted>still get their army refreshedsomeone explain the logic to me
>>734901003They do look like that, it was revealed to me in a dream.
>>734901018>GW: "BUY MORE SHIT"It's that simple.
>>734898473What if I like Eldar because I like their lore and aesthetics (Even as GW does everything they can to rape their lore) while also liking sexy Elf women? I actually bought an Eldar combat patrol to paint soon. I even have that Warhammer+ Farseer model on its way because I'm an idiot and forgot to cancel my subscription to that garbage.
>>734900748>Chaos was a base game faction in TWW1.and narratively they made sense as an endgame dilemma
>>734900359KINOhttps://files.catbox.moe/m1o4ei.png
>>734898473Marines, Orks, Eldar is the most balanced trio gameplay wise. You get the horde army, the elites and the balanced army
>>734897489>>734900281>>734900326They just revealed them in a very very poor manner. There have been decent minis.
>>734897382>friends try to talk me into playing total war warhammer fantasy>look up guides on how to do battles>every guide I found just gives you step by step instructions on how to completely cheese the AI and not actually fight them as the game had intended you to doAnd people play this trash...?
>>734901018The Ynnari were doomed from the start in every way
>>734901257You don't have to do that, I never do.
>>734901018They're the only Xeno army that sells and it's more than all the others combined.
>>734901137>Even as GW does everything they can to rape their lorei thought that was just novel writers whenever they need something to elevate their OC donutsteel's powerlevel
>>734901257The people who make Guides try to sound really smart while having zero fun.One of the big ones actually tried one of his own 'guides' after a DLC came out for 2, and he got completely BTFO by the AI since he was a retard.
>>734900359This. Needs to be more futa corruption in this world.
>>734901257>i could play>or i could be upset and let other people tell me how to play???>>734901351you arent referring to Milkandclearyoursinuses total war are you? i remember that fucking idiot saying "warden and paunch" was power creep, and then he fucking jobbed to wurrzag
>>734901018You have to remember the schlock Black Library churns out is secondary to the actual game, the guys in charge of the models and rules are not that brand of retarded. It also helps that Jes Goodwin, the guy who pretty much designed all the Eldar back in the day, is still present so the Eldar aren't getting squatted.
>>734901347Ironically I think recently the Eldar have fared better when they show up as villains or side allies in Imperium focused stuff. The best portrayed farseer in a 40k novel was an ally in a White Scars book. There was a recent fighter pilot book that had the villain be an Eldar who was flying circles around everyone
>>734901257>first thing he does before trying a game is look at guides
>>734901347Eldar just showed up in the most recent Campaign book and got humiliated by tbe Red Corsairs in it. Ironically, the Eldar side of the model releases massively outsold the Chaos side.
You bros enjoying Techmarine?
>>734901534>>734901447Brown.
>>734901727>he says as he desparately tries to avoid losing izzat by looking up guides before doing anything
>>734899635Custodes are useful because as soon as you see someone who buys, likes or plays them it allows you to instantly be able to identify them as the biggest cunt in the room.
>>734900057It honestly doesn't seem to be the case, anymore at least.
>>734899969gay krauts will fail at capturing 40k atmosphere
fuck tau
>>734901003imagine living a life so devoid of happiness and pleasure that a simple picture triggers you this much
>>734902335yeah, sucks to be you I guess
>>734900158better
is there a word for like oyakodon but instead of a mother and daughter its two sisters
is gw still hostile to fanmade games for warhammer? Ngl the stuff they have revealed so far kinda looks like normie dogshit, so I thought about making something on my own.
Who's gonna be the legendary lords for Craftworld Eldar besides Eldrad? The only ones I can think of is Yvraine and Primce Yriel but Yvraine requires Dark Eldar and Harlequins while Yriel would likely be a horde faction since pirate.They're not thinking of making the Phoenix Lords LLs when they're more akin to hero units than leaders.And how the fuck they gonna expand Dark Eldar when the only two notable characters is Vect and Lelith?>INB4 they wait for model refresh to start adding them
>>734902301Well yea.
>>734898264>This leads me to believe Biel-tanThe fuck? Who's leading them?
>>734902604If you don't monetize it the worst they'll do is send a notice saying 40k is their property. They're legally obligated to take 'action' of some kind but so long as you don't charge money for it they don't give a fuck, since if you DID that would mean courts have to get invovled.
>>734898473Eldar are popular enough you retard same for tau they actually have a fanbase unlike shit like mechanicus and votann
>>734897382Can't wait for all the official armies to be added so the schizos can discuss the inclusion of armies like dark mechanicum, exodites, ratlings and lost and damned.
>tfw modding in an entire squad of cultist-chans
>>734901680no because the retards running that company decided that everyone who maxed out every class in this frankly "new content" devoid game with frankly dogshit matchmaking, WOUDLNT want to play techmarine because its the only fucking thing that hasnt been maxed out>>734901608i mean genuine dogshit writing wont change the fact that eldar are coolLongtimee enjoyers of warhammer know that any type of game or writing where a faction is the focus, can and SHOULD BE interpreted as "unreliable narration"its part of the fun and the narration>>734902863crazy to think that mossa's cultist chan art is so prolific that people actually think it's mossa's OC
>>734899780>Thinking we'll get three race packs and not two character packs a year followed by one race pack the next yearYNGMI. You haven't really been following CA's history, have you?
>Mike Brooks made Lelith a lesbian>Mike Brooks writing the new novel series for Prince YrielGET RID OF THIS FUCKING GUY ALREADY, NO ONE LIKES THIS MAN.
>>734901889They just get so few models for the cost.
>>734903001We all know Lelith loves mongol cock.
>>734902591as a Tau player I appreciate new named heroesI just wish the 8 had canon rules again
>>734902591Why's lefty so grumpy?
WHERE ARE THE HUMAN FEMALE ELITE SOLDIERS WHO CAN MANHANDLE ME?!
>>734903132>as a Tau player
>>734903231There's an entire faction of them you fucking retard.
>>734903001You will be getting stories about faggot non-binary Corsairs rebelling against their chud Farseers until you accept the message anon.The fact a certain couple of autists will argue and rage on /v/ and /tg/ about people sexualizing female Eldar. Yet are totally ok with the absolute garbage being written for Eldar by Mike pains me.
>>734903240lol. lmao even.
>>734903231Enjoy.
>>734903170No nearby human males
>>734902986neither have you apparently>WH2 comes out and its first 2 DLCs are the remarkably popular race packs>WH3 comes out and they straight up have to divulge that as of immortal empires the engine foundation is so full to bursting that the engine introduces exponentially more problems the more shit they add, necessitating a remarkably slow and tedious development cycleyoure pretending they dont listen to feedback, OR you havent played in awhilebecause you dont know what youre talking about>hence a push to create a new engine, which ideally addresses the issue WH3 is running into
>>734901003I will never be bored or titsnot gay, sorry
>>734902591Shimaidon.
>>734903318I SAID FEMALE AND NOT FEMALE (MALE)>>734903278DO NOT REPLY TO ME OR MY POST EVER AGAIN
>>734897789Necrons DO care about biomass because they want to reverse the soul transference (lul) and they consider Tyranids one of the biggest threats to the Galaxy, to the point that they even ocassionally allied with the Imperium to fight them
>>734902813Mechanicus I can see them having a fanbase from those who discovered WH40K with their XCOM like game.Votann however I agree, just make the Rak'Gol an actual faction at this point.
>>734903364Poor girl.
>>734903231I mean. Female Catachan jungle fighters exist, but you're too small time for them.
>>734903484What's wrong with the SoB?
highly doubt that these designs are in-universe.
>>734904080Ahem.
>>734901041Umm... Why is her arm like that? Is she a cyborg?
>>734904080Proofs??
>>734904080>buy your GW bases>buy your GW minis>buy your GW green stuffby all accounts unless your TO shits on it i dont see why GW would have a problem with non3D printed, moldable GW merchandise
>>734903289I'm not ok with fucking anything BL writes. If I had my way I'd shoot those fucking midwits and have everythign they have ever written burned at a stake.
I wonder if GeeDubs is aware of all the Tau porn floating around, and if they ever play around with the concept.I mean, something like Eldar or the genderswapped Primarchs wouldn't really fit in the context or the setting, but considering how much Tau propaganda the worlds on the Tau border must be exposed to (not to mention the human world belonging to the Tau Empire) and how comparatively human like the Tau are compared to other Xenos (bar the Eldar) there is got to be some in-universe examples.
>>734904150Robot arm.
>>734903231
>>734904193Buddy GW flat out put art of Yvraine and Guilliman on the Warhammer Community website one Thanksgiving. They know.
They should make the hrud a faction in the game
>>734904361That's shipping, though, it's different.I was talking more about characters talking about in universe Tau porn.
>>734904465Pretty sure the recent T'au book had a Gue'vesa falling in love with an Ethereal.
>>734902758>so long as you don't charge money for it they don't give a fuckIm just curious, would that include stuff like donations, or just putting a price tag on content?
>>734897789>is chaos known for its fighting against necrons?The opposite. Necrons are known for hating chaos and choosing to dunk on it at every opportunity
>>734897382>DoW4/TWW:40KThey look like the same game.
blue butthole
>>734901680>Blasts>Having
>>734902758It's not even charging money. It just has to be legally distinct aka totally-not-40k. you're selling a mini that would coincidentally fit perfectly into the setting.
>>734904494Ethereal pheromones must be powerful indeed...
>>734904553Any monetization.People don't like to talk about it but the reason Text-To-Speech actually ended was because they were getting too big to not monetize and were starting to creep over the line of legal and illegal use. The Stellaris video was one of their last ones for a reason.It's not even entirely GW's fault (though they are asshats), if they don't pursue action then the Courts will shred them. Copyright law fucking sucks.
>>734904717One of them looks like garbage and the other seems to be shaping up decent
>>734903751>Female Catachan jungle fighters exist
What about Tautachans?
>>734897382
>>734904360would
>>734904846Which is which? It's been a while since I followed their development, last I remember was that DoW 4 gameplay video with the Orks.
>>734904360The stimulants are stored in the tits.
>>734905035DoW looks like garbage. Every animation is awful, unit movement is weird in a way I can't describe, everything looks cartoony and weightless.
which caste smells best, i bet its water caste
>>734905136*DoW4 obviously
>>734905136Really? If anything it sounded like the hardest to fuck up, just do DoW 1 again but with more content and updated graphics and they would make decent money.
>>734897382realistically if tau had huge fucking tits there would be a slave dairy cow castleffs humans have wet nurses and we're basically all the same. look at what we do to cows. it'd be even worse for the tau.
>>734905146>version with weird nosesHere king, take this.
>>734905260>just do DoW 1 againDoW4 so far looks like a mix between 2 and 3. Base building doesn't seem to be anywhere near as important as in 1 and the style is ass.
>>734905260>just do DoW 1 again but with more content and updated graphicsJust go play UA or something (or unification for literal anime gacha models in your 40k game) if you want that. They'll never make a full game like this.
>>734905091She’s a culexus, not an eversor
>>734899780Now I want a 40k kart racer
>>734905547Could've fooled me
>>734905275Well, Earth caste is basically the handyman of the Tau (farmers, scientists, engineers...), I can see them also be wet nurses.Or maybe that could be one of the jobs of low level Water castes, since there can only be so many diplomats around and I fell caring for infants would make a good job for training their patience in diplomatic matters.
I HATE PRIMARIS I HATE PRIMARIS I HATE PRIMARIS
So how is TW:40K gonna work? I've heard it described as the perfect Chapter Master but then apparently they did a stream that immediately killed all hype for the game. Is it still on Warscape?
>>734898264He looks like he fucks vespids.

>>734901608This kind of thing happens a lot
>>734905275>slave dairy cow castleTau are insanely indoctrinated into their Greater Good™ religion, and if you believe the theories then they're literally being mind controlled. They wouldn't be "slaves," they'd happily produce as many gallons as the Tau require.
>>734905357After the disaster that was DoW 3, I would have thought they would avoid taking any inspiration from that game.>>734905442Sure, but I'm talking about what I think would make economic sense as a low risk DoW sequel, not what I would personally want.
>>734905683>Is it still on Warscape?no it and Med3 are slated to be the first games, and very far out, on the new engine40K is also due to be CA's first TW console release
>>734905563Don't we all?
>>734905851
>>734905851I was thinking that the SW would ride around on an open top Stormwolf but I mean Santa Grimnar's sled is the obvious choice.
>>734900281Better this way these lil niggas look like they belong in halo, there's no need to include dwarfs in 40k
>>734904776

>>734905830How far out we talking? Is it unironically like 4 years from this definitely 6/10 game to be released?
>>734905928I want Doomrider as the Funky Kong equivalent.
>>734905683New engine, the way it will work is described as this>You have your "Warband" which is a Space Marine company/chapter, Guard regiment, Ork WAAAGH, or Eldar Craftworld>Campaign works like Shogun 2 Avatar Conquest>Big galaxy map that will present many points of conflict you can warp to and fight in>Type 1: Normal battles. You go to a place, fight a battle, then you finish and go back to the galaxy map. About a weeknight of length>Type 2: Planetary campaign. A planet is similar in scale to a continent in a normal TW campaign. Conquer the planet then return to the map. About a weekend of length>Type 3: Sector campaign. Multiple planets, maybe fleet battles? A few weeks of length>Your warband gains experience as does your individual units. Specialize over time with either a canon warband (Ultramarines company for example) or make your own>Guard work like traditional TW factions. Conquer territory, build infrastructure>Marines work like a horde faction that builds small outposts where they conquer>Orks are Orks, work much like they do in WH3>Eldar are the most mysterious, instead of painting the map they have to achieve a bunch of secret (to everyone else) objectives to declare victory. Objectives like destroying a certain army, holding a place for X turns. They can teleport around with the webway too
>>734906101>How far out we talking?i dont think anyone knowswhat we do know>its a true brand new engine so dont expect it any time soon>probably announced it because investorswell that and myself included thought CA was in dire straits after pharoah not doing so hot>even though its pretty good, and has a bunch of great ideas, just not combat thats my cup of teabut the idea is i would be pleasantly surprised if it was somehow due LATE next year now at the earliest
>>734906164>reminded they squatted Doomrider
>>734905661I like Aggressors. Their anti grav tech looks like crap though and those missile units are full retard.
>>734905976We know water caste are engineered to be as "persuasive" as possible to the races they deal with so probably a lot of them.
>>734902610Nuadhu Fireheart, the crazy fuck from Saim Hann who rides a vyper into melee standing up and Iyanna Ariennal, the angel of iyanden who's on a quest to find the tears of Isha and kill slaanesh are legacy characters who should be brought back. Sure, they're really just quick blurbs, and Iyannas gimmick was rebranded into the ynnari abortion, but still.Can't think of a single notable biel-tan guy.Macha?
>>734906571How long until Water Caste will start evolving tits to be more "persuasive" to humans (probably the race that Tau have to deal diplomatically the most)?
Disregard DoW4 and TWW40K. Continue to play the slav-developed mod for Men of War Assault Squad 2 for an additional 20 hours whenever they manage to update it.
>>734906370I will be making the Moebian 21st. They'll job their way across the stars!
Tau are all magnificently flat
>>734906769This Tau has sprung a leak.
>>734906846Wrong, their tits are magnificently fat.
>>734906769Based, I will also be making some jobber Guard until my favorite guys are added
>>734906769>>734906964what do we think about GW's push from the leman russ to the rogal dorn
>>734906769>nipple_penetration
>>734901246Votann should have been rat people with a dwarven aestheticappease skaven, dwarf, and xenophiles all in one go
Tau are the only reason I still care about 40k after they shittified it with 8th edition
>>734907030Stupid, I hate it. Nothing will replace the Russ.
>>734906931But I like them flat...
>>734907030The Russ is a Main Battle Tank while the Dorn is a heavy tank. It slots in ok my main problem is it looks bad due to having way too many little guns attached to it.
>>734907138Flattest I can offer is a tomboy Fire Warrior gf.
>>734907030The guard already had a stopgap between the Russ and the Baneblade and it was called the Macharious heavy tank. I like it as much as I like all the Guards suddenly being women, black or black women.And the yellow bolts are stupid too.
>>734907182This, the model is so fucking busy like all the shit GW churns out these days.
So if Guard and marine are separate factions...will we always be forced to fight each other? Will we have to maintain relationships or something? Yea occasionally guards and Marines might squabble but certainly not often.
>>734907182I think of the tacticus and tw40k trailers and the rogal dorn is fairly clearly the only tank being depicted/deployed
>>734907493I imagine they will have a relationship bonus but they could certainly fight each other. The Imperium fights itself pretty often
>>734907610That would be so sad, but the thing about these TW games is they will add every single unit given the chance. GW just likes pushing the newer models into the trailers.
>>734907493I mean in TWW Kislev and the Empire are both human factions that have high affinity with each other. You can negotiate non-aggression pacts and shit.
>>734899780They're not releasing 2-3 entire races a year, you fucking retard.
>>734906571Flick's not the best, but damn if he's not enjoyable.
>>734907797He's been at it for decades that old Russian scamp. I respect the grind.
>>734907713Well even if they didnt, the fact that in map you're within a cunt hair's distance of things that mutually hate their factions and yours, alliances come easyThe easiest way to build +relations in WH is having a shared enemy that you actively fight
>>734907863>Tau megane with a ponytail
>>734907745We'll probably see a dedicated Chaos faction shortly after release but then radio silence pending game performance.
>>734897789Necrons, ironically, are one of the most effective anti-chaos factions due to developing so much anti-warp/anti-psychic tech during the war in heaven.
>>734907949Didn't stop the Eldar from stomping them.
>>734908024>>734907949To be fair eldar speed and decisive firepower BTFO the necrons in DoW
>>734907949It's by design actually, Undead in Warhammer Fantasy were meant to be a natural foil to chaos. Necrons inherited this trait>>734908024Necrons beat the Eldar by just waiting for them to fuck themselves to death
>>734908024>>734908159The Eldar 'won' the war in heaven but also didn't because all the old ones were still killed off. The Eldar just happened to survive the fallout, and the Necrons self destructed via transference.
>>734908024The Eldar didn't win shit. The Necrons fought two hyper-powers and it drained their resources too much to stomp out the Krorks and Eldar afterwards.
>>734908210>Undead in Warhammer Fantasy were meant to be a natural foil to chaosDead or alive, I think krell is just happy he gets to swing his axe
>>734908024Eldar "won" in that Necron went to sleep after fighting some damn exhaustive wars. Nothing since has really matched the War in Heaven.
>>734908487I enjoy how the Necrons speak about Naval battles in the Twice Dead King books. Their ships are designed for long range combat across solar systems, designed to withstand insane bursts of damage. However in the lower tech future they are constantly overwhelmed by enemy fleets which outnumber their ships and built for continuous, long lasting close range duels.
>>734908487>Eldar "won" in that Necron went to sleep after fighting some damn exhaustive wars.tbf they explicitly went to sleep because the eldar would have defeated them at that point
>>734908606or who just throw walls of fucking bullets, missiles, and boarding craft at them yeah. And the fun part is i'm not necessarily just describing Orks
>>734908929The empire most definitely, they employ sheer volume to make up for the irreparable autoloadersEspecially since imperium ships operate on ship of the line based doctrines
anybody got the second episode of the nuns vs orks animation they are releasing now?i think it was out a couple days agoplz and ty
>>734899282The water caste are the passive propaganda and negotiations faction, anon. Those are not fighters they are diplomats, diplomats that are naive and would be sent into a Genestealer's den, where they will be raped and used as literal cattle
>>734897382DoW4 probably won't even have Votann, if TW40K sells as well as Fantasy did it WILL get Votann eventually but we'll have to wait probably a decade. That all said, Chaos Dwarfs were worth the waitAs far as which factions we'll get first, Chaos for Total War but Dawn of War could honestly be a toss-up.I don't see how Total War will function on launch without Chaos to use as rebel troops, but Dawn of War will do whatever the devs think is popular. So probably still Chaos.
>>734899780That sounds like too much work for CA to pull off.
>>734898769Didn't it also have bolter bitches? I'm pretty sure I've seen Rogue Trader art of a Sister shooting a Space Marine
>zero depictions or descriptions of an overweight or big tittied tau specimen in all the wider lore.>muktiple people make fanart exclusively of g-cup slamcows that wouldn't make sense in any caste.I just want pretty tau girls that look even remotely feasible in universe, we have like one cannon picture and its of a grizzled old lady.
>>734901680Yeah, he's great. Feels like some of his talents could still use tweaking, like I can't find a situation in which I would prefer the plasma servo over the other 2 for instance, but he's really fun to play. Already maxed him out though, not much to do anymore again, other than a few more weeklies until I'm capped on blue points again.
>>734910778I think it's just because of how naive the Tau act in lore. Like, Orks look how Orks act, Eldar look how Eldar act, but if Tau looked how Tau act then they should look like big dumb bimbo Taucows
>>734897382can somebody post the original without the text?
>>734897382>>734897443gguhhhh
You like the Tau cause of big titty propaganda. I like the Tau because I love Gundam Wing. We are not the same
>>734911047I like T'au because i crave for a generalist faction of varied xeno species trying to survive the universe. The fact that T'au auxilliaries outside of Kroot don't get love makes me sad, there's a lot of potential.
>>734911047I like Tau for being the modern combined arms faction
>>734897382If it does well, a few months. If it flops, never.
>>734911541To further add, the most likely first guys that'll be added after release are the Imperial Guard (Their units are in the game, but not playable at release) and the Tau (They once conquered Kronus, and might wanna give it another go once it's cleansed of Necrons)
I'm actually excited for T'au in Total War 40k because shoot or die factions are fun in that game. I hope Psykers aren't too busted though or it might suck.
>>734911047I like Tau because of the big titty propaganda
>>734905830its a new engine the way bethesda makes new engines
>>734911379I really wish humans were excluded from the aegis of the Greater Good. If for no other reason than most if the other Auxilia probably hate their guts and would riot if they found out humans were getting any leniency
>>734911047I like mechs but Tau don't do it for me their battlesuits are mostly lame with the very rare cool design hidden somewhere in their codex
Ok. Tau women have hair? What color is natural?
AUUGHHHH!!!! TFW NO SEXY BLUE VAUGELY-ASIAN-THEMED ALIEN GF!!!!!
>>734907221>it was called the Macharious heavy tank.That was a ForgeWorld/specialist games design vehicle, and GW in the past 8 years has tried to separate Forgeworld designs from mainline GW studio designs for whatever reason. That's why the Machariors does not show up anymore in 40k but does in HH
>>734907243>the model is so fucking busyi mean thats kinda wh's thing
>>734912040Probably happens among the Fourth Sphere survivors. They got gaped by daemons, and were so fucked up by the experience that they went insane and tried to purge all their auxiliaries.They went so far that their higher-ups banned them from having auxiliaries in their armies.
>>734897489>>734901246Just wait for the Leagues of Hashut to be added
>>734912373It's not really well established. Shadowsun has red hair for sure. Tau in general still have a lot of their physical appearance up for change.
Why are blue women so appealing?
forehead pussy...
>>734912765see>>734904749

I hope Gabe is doing alright
>>734908487>>734908308>>734908232...so Eldar won
>>734900909witch is a fucking shit game compared to the first
>>734912987Necrons sitll exist, so no.
How come the Eldar didn't hunt down the sleeping Necrons to completely annihilate them? Was it hubris?
>>734913128You don't have to genocide your enemy to win. Eldar accepted Necron surrender.>>734913186Eldar are good so they decided to not genocide them for no reason. Necrons lost and if they got uppity again, they would be defeated again.
>>734911854Tasty Tau milk.
>>734912987>eldar won>post jobber of khaineAnon...
Cow goes moo
>>734913492what gue'vesa food does to Tau women
>>734913271>>734913492Too big.
>>734913564Wrong.
>>734913492>>734913271Bigger.
>>734913492Eww
>>734913284Yes. Necrons lost to Eldar so they surrendered and went to sleep, which even further damaged them.

All of these she-aliens look like they're made for the daemonculaba project
>>734914637Ah yes, a normal person lives here.
>>734913080They already said they're changing things based on feed back fron the demo.
>>734914650>40k is so pussified and gay now we'll never get anything as genuinely fucked up and dark as the Daemonculaba ever again
>>734913079So did they kill Cato or what? He's irrelevant in an age of returned Primarchs.
>>734897382>Chaos is obviously a priority because GW is gayfuckoff tau faggot, space marines run 40k, cant wait to push your blue forehead into the fucking DIRT.
Greetings Imperial citizens, which Astartes chapter would vanquish the vile Tau xenos through selective breeding?Asking for a Battle Brother of course.
>>734911047I like the Tau because it's the closest thing to a xeno faction the Imperium is forced to have a quasi semi normal relationship with.Eldar and Necrons are too scattered and for a number of reasons the ones who make deals with them are almost always Inquisitors, the other major factions fall somewhere between "shoot first" and "kill on sight" (though IIRC Orks freebotaz are hired by certain Imperium elements from time to time) and every other xeno race is too irrelevant to bother with.Tau-Imperium relations are almost a peek in what the Imperium would be like in a slightly less fucked up galaxy.
>>734917118A chaos one. Loyalists don't fuck.
>>734913492The sag is very important
>>734917526>no veinsSo close
>>734897382orkz iz best
>>734917118I don't think marines have working dicks.
>>734917962Bile can make it hard again.
>>734917962>>734917118they still got their dicks and biologically they function, their brains have been completely rewritten though so they have no real sex urges. One of da old Space Wolf books explores this (2nd one). The Space Wolves are pretty 'loose' as far as Marines go, and Ragnar is gary stu as all get out. Even he is only able to feel a vague sense of attachment and attraction to a woman, which he is also passively able to observe objectively as 'this is kind of weird', and it's implied she's using psychic powers to do it.So the canon answer is none of them.The meme answer is Salamanders and Celestial Lions. You know why.
>>734918159Doesn't Lukas have a few bastards?
>>734918231He claims he does he's also full of shit
If a man of iron kills Lucius does it grow organs when Lucius' curse takes hold or does Lucius just get reborn as a clanker?
>>734918386the former, Lucius explicitly breaks 'rules' when it suits Slaanesh because SLaanesh thinks it's funny. One time he gets killed by a landmine and later possesses a factory worker who made it
>>734918386It's best to not ask questions like that because the answer is always unsatisfying and retarded.
These propaganda techniques keep getting weirder.
>>734918386Lucius' whole thing is literally just Slaanesh playing a prank on him for his massive ego. That's why all the faces are forever glued to his armor. An eternal reminder of everyone who ever beat him, who he will never be able to fight again, and as such he will never actually improve. Not the mentioned the countless literally whos who killed him due to a lucky shot or an artillery strike at some point.If he dies to something that actually breaks the curse according to the rules, Slaanesh just brings him back some other way. Probably wakes up in the mausoleum of the ancient Terran engineer who designed and built that specific model of Man of Iron.
>>734917028>space marines run 40ack!>runs behind you with katana>stabspsssh nothin personnel kis
>>734918824This image is funny to me simply because of that one time a psychic Sister killed a Culexus assassin with a psychic kiss.
>>734897382tau are disgustingall xenos are filth
>>734918914That can't possibly be real.
What is GW's official position on the Tau cow?
>>734919853It is. Granted, it's Ephrael Stern aka the super Sister, but it still happens.
>>734905661Funny how Chaos Space Marines got modern scale models without any magical bs behind it, just an update and that's it.
Eldar are cool for being very mobile army based around doing close combat ninja shit.Dark Eldar though are the cooler faction in terms of lore even though they look like some tryhard WoW Illidan shit these days. Early Dark Eldar art was awesome.
>>734920271>based around doing close combat ninja shit.Eldar are mostly a shoot and scoot faction. While the melee they do have can blend a lot of shit on good rolls, it's mostly just for hopefully trading up because next turn they're gonna die if there are any enemies waiting nearby.
>>734920271Eldar are so lame, if they didnt exist in 40k nothing would change too much outside Slaanesh. Meanwhile in Fantasy most key moments in the story are tie to the elves in some way or another.
>>734920238>The loyalist players fear of being replaced by something new pushed them to Chaos so they could hold on to older loadouts.Marketing genius. Absolute cinema
Taucows owe me milkAlso nice saggers
>>734899237god the new models look so good. I never expected them to get anything
I hate what they did to the sisters. They gave the naked chainsaw squad fucking crocs and the ugliest designs ever. The new models in general tend to look retarded
>>734899969its funny how pandering to gays made the sales worse but they still keep pushing it
>>734900909>Mechanicus 2.more like wokechanicus 2. Its an absolute joke of a game
>>734920271>>734921054Do Eldar and Deldar have any shared units? Its just wild to me that one group hiding in a pocket dimension and the other constantly travelling in space lead to a complete overhaul of their respective military structures.
>>734914735>They already said they're changing things based on feed back fron the demo.doubtful
>>734918386The whole Lucius thing is retarded since Slaanesh can do the most contrived shit just to respawn him. I can't be sure if this shit is true since he managed to respawn in a necron body who toasted his ass.
DoW 4's first DLC will obviously be Imperial Guard and boring ass chaos.Wish they did Drukhari though.
>>734901018>>their story arc gets abortedWhy the fuck can GW not let Eldar have a story that doesnt involve them lose everything or a trillion eldar dying or some dumb shit
>>734921525That and they're fucking repulsively ugly.
>>734921807They'll be one of the last for sure.
>Voltann could've been cool industrial space dwarves>Somehow fuck it upIs GW retarded
>>734921525>fucking crocs Some fucking idiot at GW really loves those crocs and armored shorts, makes everybody look real super stupid, same with the skis on grav/flying units.
>>734921768Technically Striking Scorpions and Incubi are suppose to be connected since Incubis learned from the Striking Scorpion Phoenix Lord.
>>734921353
>so when you find a human mate make sure to scare him first, it'll freeze him in place it makes them easier to capture
>>734921968I was referring to shared as in being the exact same unit down to the name. To use the real world, basically like how the US and Britain, even though they've split from each other 250 years ago, both have sergeants, generals, admirals, etc. in their armed forces.
>>734921768Between the factions, there are no directly interchangeable units if that's what you mean. The Ynnari faction can mix and match units from all the Eldar factions though. Eldar of both cultures do have many units that fill very similar battlefield roles, but that's true of many factions. The Eldar comparisons are just much closer. You won't find Incubi or Kabalites fighting among Craftworlders or Aspect Warriors and Farseers fighting alongside Kabals regularly. Craftworld Eldar and Dark Eldar have been culturally distinct from each other than a lot longer than just the Fall of their Empire. Craftworlders have their military bolstered by a bunch of Warrior Priests from the Aspect Paths who emulate traits of their Gods. The Dark Eldar as a whole are a much more martial and violent culture, and the diversity of their army is made up by the numerous ways the Dark Eldar entertain themselves through violence and backstabbing. Racers, Gladiators, Messengers, The Joseph Mengele fan club, Pirates, etc.
>>734921928Considering Votann were made to capitalize on Deep Rock Galactic's popularity I would say yes, GW is retarded.
>>734922132None. They're too spiritually and culturally different. Dark eldar themselves need to maximize pain and suffering of others to feed their souls to stave off Slaanesh while Craftworld relies on soul stones to protect their souls from Slaanesh.
>>734922427Huh. I wonder what a War in Heaven Eldar military looked like.
>>734921390The new Phoenix Lords are all cool, but I don't like how some of them have both their melee weapon and a typically very large gun on them at the same time. Espescially when they're monopose. Like does Baharoth need his huge sword on top of carrying an entire sniper rifle with him? He'd look better with just the gun. Same goes for Fuegan. Though Fuegan could have probably dropped the firepike entirely for some kind of integrated melta weapon in his armor or axe.
>>734922557Probably more closely resembling Craftworlders aesthetically but with nearly every soldier being Farseer tier and their Gods manifesting straight into battle at times. They were a Psychically ascendant race with almost no limits on their abilities.
>>734921992>size difference>with large woman and LARGER womanREAL SHIT
>>734904360Jesus christ, Anon, he asked to be manhandled, not jumpscared and then ripped in half.
>>734913613>>734913492hope she moos as i plap her from behind
>>734912576now thats peak
>>734912987Bratty king, needs correction
I wonder what would happen if you fed a Phoenix Lord to an Avatar of Khaine. It would either be really cool or really embarrassing.
>>734921937Fuck is that ugly
>>734922397>Capitalize on DRG>Adds none of the industrial grittyness or rawness>not even a huge cool as fuck tankGW???
>>734923719Yeah. They got the land fortress but that's more of a big unmarked van to steal kids with than a tank.
>>734923852I like the chunky ones and the !Runesmiths but everything else isn't too my tastes.
>>734901307I thought Orks and nids were somewhat popular?
>>734924407It's impossible to say since GW doesn't give direct sale information for how well any given faction sold at any given time. They give random tidbits like saying a factions launch sold particularly well, like apparently the Emperors Children sets sold very well, As did the recent refresh of the Eldar Aspect Warriors, and Space Wolves apparently broke a record for the sales of an individual box set last year.
>>734924507god tau women make me feel something
>>734925181Lust, presumably
What's your guy's favorite army/what you're building?For me it's imperial guard
>>734923852>>734923719>>734922397Age of Wonders: Planetfall unironically did better Votann/Squats back in 2019
>>734925492Recently I started learning the tabletop with some friends and started with necrons but ended up hating them. A lot of other armies feel way too annoying to start with and actually get them. I did end up just going Tau funnily enough. I just love their style and gundams.But I ended up dropping the tabletop. Just isnt as fun as I was hoping and way too much to keep in mind
>>734925605>Age of Wonders: Planetfallthe dwarves were so fucking cool and oozed style.
>>734925605>>734925732I love how retarded their big unit looks. Its pure bliss
>>734925732>>734925798shame that game didn't get a ton of support but at least AoW4 is doing well.
>>734900281I just don't think any part of their aesthetic isn't done better by other factions. Deep Rock Galactic genuinely does space dwarves way cooler.
>>734925492>FantasyHigh Elves and Dark Elves. I like conventional armies and they're straightforward but with really great Lords and High tier monsters to act as anchors/setpieces for an army. >40kIt might actually be Tyranids. I like mindless hordes with a hint of not actually being mindless, but I feel they should play with the idea of the Tyranid Hivemind being schizophrenic at higher levels, and high level synapse creatures developing more character the longer they live.
>>734897789>because tau have poor warp presence and so do not advance the chaos agendaThey have human auxiliaries and possibly other allied xenos that would be better to corrupt
>>734926303Funny how the Necromunda Squats look like DRG dwarves.
>>734926686The human auxiliaries literally created a goddess to protect the Tau, by accident or course.
>>734927334It's probably already faded into irrelevance.
What if taucow, but pregnant?
>>734928737Like this?
>>734925492i don't like spending my hard earned money on plastic cocaine so i don't actually build armies, nor do I like the rules for 40k 10e so i don't actually play the game eitherall that said, I do like Eldar and Tyranids
>>734903001>Mike Brooks made Lelith a lesbiangood
>>734901257CAsimps will cope but TWW is designed like absolute dogshit and is filled with player traps on every conceivable level.Optimal TWW play is some of the most rancid dogshit gameplay you've ever had to endure. Some NPCs are completely capable of just "turning their brain off" and pretending it's way more fun to build swordmanni and mash them against other swordmanni, but as soon as the veil lifts, a regular 100+ IQ white person can't pretend to play like a total fucking retard anymore without feeling his skin crawl.
>>734897382I don't want to talk about that, I want to talk about DoW:DE and why Soulstorms campaign still has some weird ass bugs in it. I get they wanted to make it faithful, but I could've done without some stronghold missions occasionally crashing the game making me do it all over again.
>>734929204yeah, but even MORE pregnant!
>>734929750I know which image you speak of, but I shan't post it here.
>>734901447Warden and the paunch WAS power creep, Grom's cauldron was one of the most retarded things they added in 2. It's just that now the power creep is so bad that every single new faction is trying their very best to compete with FUCKING KHORNE for being overpowered. I thought I would play throgg because haha troll funny but he has full WAAAGH mechanics, cancerous amounts of boosts on his trolls factionwide, and the hunts are now gamebreaking. I have a better economy than everyone but the fucking dwarfs and I'm living in wooden shacks held together with ropes.

>>734927334Don't forget the Kroot, Nicassar, and other alien auxillaries
>>734921928Eh I've been coming around on them
>>734921797The thing is, Slaanesh doesn't need the rules to resurrect people, they can just do that. Khorne resurrects his followers too, its just something the Chaos gods can do. Slaanesh just does a silly game with it
