I platonically love Dorn.

For the future of the Imperium!

>>56802616
how different would things be if Perturabo got the respect he deserved and Dorn got all the thankless bullshit that Pert ended up with?

Blessed be the Mathhammer.

>>56802616
A guy in my lgs has one of these he carries in his backpack. He gave it to one of the tournament fags when they went on a rant, he almost shit himself.

The guy that carries the hat is an ass, but the best kind of ass(dad jokes, sarcasm, takes literally nothing seriously)

Best Regiment

>>56802672
Vior'la is pretty dope, anon, ill give you that.

how do you make one of those hats? i want to get on with the imperial fist logo on it and the words "WEAPONISED AUTISM"

it would be yellow

>>56802646

Tell me about your Homebrew Septs anon. Why do they fight? Do they Follow the Greater Good? What is their main tactics?

That’s not N’dras, D’yanoi or Sa’cea.

Pert strikes me as the kind of guy who would train soldiers from childhood
Part of that training is to kill the dog you were given as a child

Ayyy

Tyranids is WIP, I dread coming up to Carnifexes and their billion options.

It wouldn't be looking good for them.

>>56802646
Easy, We would have the "bitter and jaded Imperial Fists" traitors fighting the gallant Iron Warriors of the Imperium right now.

>>56802722
>implying I'm some weebfag T'au-player who sleeps with his bodypillow

If I had to homebrew a Sept I'd have them join sides with the imperium for voluntary extermination. So yeah I guess they follow the Greater Good.

What do you drink when you've utterly lots the enthusiasm to 40k but don't want to give it up?

FAQ update when?

>>56802778
palinka

>>56802744
Sa'Cea a best
the rest are litteraly who-tier

Missed some of the replies in the last thread. What traitor legion can I make these guys look good as? Wanted to do Iron Warriors but too many spikes and horns.

Fuck me, 27 squid for a hat.

I just want a hat.

>>56802778
Paint water?
Is this a meme I’ve missed?

You now have Rise of the Ynnari!

>>56802801

You know, his sword looks pretty much exactly like Nyancat.

>>56802814

This meme has evolved beyond my understanding.

>>56802616
This man is still alive

Is anyone having issues ordering from Forgeworld?

I am just trying to order one of those Character Conversion Kits and a MKIV Assault kit but my payment is not going through, According to my Paypal, the site thinks I am trying to order in pounds instead of the dollar.

What black library books would you reccomend to my elderly mother?

>>56802801
Don't get meme'd by neckbeards that haven't opened a book for over a decade. IW are full on chaos in 40k so you can easily paint and run that guy as them.

>>56802803

>>56802745
>Pert strikes me as the kind of guy who would train soldiers from childhood
That's what he and the other primarchs did.

>>56802829
Didn't Sanguinius shove this guy out into space?

>>56802821
Whatever weed you're smoking right now, smoke less of it.

>>56802672
I beg to differ.

>>56802646
Perturabo would still be a bitter autist. He grew up in very good circumstances and still spent his childhood locked in his room refusing to come out or connect with anyone for more or less no reason.

>>56802837
what does he like ?
>>56802722
i hav

Why are IW players so butthurt?

>>56802835

You are trying to order in pounds, dumbass. Forge World only give prices in pounds.

>>56802722
I run Enclaves

>>56802862
Autism.

>>56802829
>*teleports behind you*
Nothing personal... kid.

>>56802722
Mine is not a full-fledged Sept, but a Colony World. I didn't go full autist on the fluff, but here's the basics

>near the edge of Damocles Gulf
>large Kroot Auxiliary units, settled and bred to bolster ranks further
>good numbers of Vespid, as requested by the Shas'o for the maneuverability
>underfunded, and lack of new ethereal support
>after AdMech firebombed and left behind Guard regiments, streams of new Gue'vesa
>other aliens picked up along the way
Haven't decided when they were settled or if I'm going to have them be Fourth/Fifth Sphere septs. Like I said, didn't go full blast on the fluff yet

>>56802856
>>56802722
I have not created a Sept but a Vior'la Cadre based on snow warfare
i still hesitate on how do i name my commander
i think Snowblade can work
what do you think ?

>>56802864
Well, the problem is that the site is giving estimates in dollars but my Paypal thinks the Dollar Estimates is the actual price in pounds.

>>56802814
Yay! Not gonna read it, but happy for those who want it.

>>56802851

It's pretty much identical bro.

>>56802722
my homebrew sept is one that attempted to colonise a water world and live in underwater cities, periodically giant nightmarish abominations from the depths try and eat everything. There may or may not be a group that's gone native and are living in the tropical jungles on the land

>>56802848
Like "Farsight Enclaves" red or like "what the Black Templars do with their entrails" red?

>>56802829
Not until the Lion comes back and breaks his back again.

Wonder if that will happen? How do you think the Lion will come back

no gay jokes, traitor jokes allowed

>>56802835
PayPal or your card should both be able to handle currency conversion. Your bank probably has an anti-fraud hold on any foreign transactions, call them.

>>56802801
Do it man.

What the fuck does Alpha Legion actually do besides fucking around in secrecy?

Are they just lazy renegades or what?

Do I need a physical copy of the FW book to use FW units in events (like tournaments) or is a digital version on a phone/tablet fine? What about a print out of the page with rules of the unit I want to use?

>>56802931
Who the fuck knows?
certainly not the alpha legion themselves

>>56802808
Fuck. This is what I get for phone posting

>>56802778
>What do you do when you've utterly lost the enthusiasm to do 40k but don't want to give it up?

>>56802931

that's for us to know and you to find out haha you will not

Think it'll be interesting to take a psyker with interrogator-chaplains? I can see some nasty psychic combos with the new powers

>>56802616
something something ADB on the reddits on Friday blah blah blah

So, thinking of going Dark Angels. My first time playing the game - been a fan of the books and video games for a while but never been involved with the models (despite some chaos models when I was like 12).

How are they? I know the codex is not out yet but judging trends and leaks are they any good? How are they to paint? Seem fairly easy since they are just green with a light green highlight or bone with a white highlight.

Also any news on the Lion or current theories? Only going Dark Angels since he is my favourite Primarch so would be nice to have him to build my army around.

>>56802931
Chaos stuff. They just didn't flee to the Eye of Terror after the Heresy so they are just doing subverting and infiltraitoring on a wide scale.

>>56802814
Please tell me you've deleted the last paragraph just to fuck with that guy?

>>56802983

Black Library books are terrible and even the supposed best writer (Abnett) is extremely mediocre.

>>56802996

Absolutely. If I wanted Vonnegut, I'd read Vonnegut, though.

>>56802996
He's the most handsome man in the burns ward.

>>56802989
Decent shoot army with "unit delete" elite melee. Painting them is pretty simple but you can get crazy with the details of you want. The upcoming codex seems to add a decent amount of tactical flexibility so you can run more units for comp/fun

>>56802778
Take a break lad. Do something else. Or start a new army or something. Change what you're doing.

What would be a good substitute for Obliterators since their model is straight garbage?

>>56802646
Perturabo would be furious at how well Dorn and the fists are taking it, and how they seemingly do not care at all.

>>56802753
>>56802750
Do you guys really think the Fists are the way they are because they were daddies favourite?
Their loyalty and stoicism would probably make them start to enjoy all the bullshit, and Perturabo would still end up turning traitor and becoming the Daemon Prince of Chaos Unwanted.

>>56802814
Damnit now I can't keep posting pretending to be beggar anon. Thanks, asshole.

>>56802906
Wait, the Lion broke Curze's back? What is it with loyalist primarchs and breaking traitor losers' backs?

>>56802983
AMA? Oh wow, that'll be spicy. I got a Reddit account, anyone want me to relay a question?

>>56803046
no

That's not a proper answer, anon.

I want to do a black and white chapter scheme, do I go iron hands, raven futas or black templars?

So all the Iron Warriors are eunuchs too? That would explain their cold bitterness.

raven futas

I actually just shifted armies. I had to put my CSM away because they're just so disappointing, and I can't pretend anymore. I shifted to my Deldar, and CA didn't help at all. My last game was against my friend's tryanids and it wasn't even a game. I managed to bring down a carnifex and wound another, but what wasn't charged by deepstriking units had to choose between getting one shot by monsters I can't kill in melee or get swarmed by chaff I literally can't kill enough to matter. Most of my recent deldar games have been similar with the exception of like space marines and admech.

what are good dkok units?

>>56802906
Hopefully a crusade-era primaris will start slapping the gay out of the current Dangles until they stop their undercover Mary-Kate and Ashley bullshit.

Then just sort of find Lion-O in the basement and tell the NEET piece of shit to take a shower and put on his big boy pants before Guilliman accidentallies Imperium Trifectus.

>>56803055
From what I've read in HH books, there was really not much difference between IW and IF. Just one of them got shit on constantly and the other not. I'm sure if they both got positive reinforcement, they'd remain loyal. In fact, I think they would be great at working together if that happened.

Anyone think Fabulous Bill is gonna whip us up some chaos primaris soon? I'd love to take some chad hellblasters and intercessors instead of the basic bitch chaos marines.

I've seen both Centurions and Bullgryn turned into good Obliterators.

>>56803137
Centurions or Aggressors with lots of greenstuff. Centurions come with more weapons if you don't have bits.

There's another priest in the main detachment with the same loadout as the other, I realize I forgot to include him

I figured the techmarine could help keep the leviathan alive, since it will have a huge target on its back

>>56802989
They're solid so far, bikes aren't so spectacularly broken as they were the last two editions so Ravenwing aren't going to win you any games on their own but yeah solid.
They have a nice colour palette or at least I think so and from a lore perspective they have their own coded heraldry using divided and variegated fields which can be fun to play with if you like fiddly bits.

Big thing to remember is that Deathwing want to be in CC, even with the new stormbolters they are always going to be out gunned so get them into CC and put those specialist CC weapon to good use.

>Also any news on the Lion or current theories?
Nope, still snoozing in the Rock unlikely to change any time soon.

>>56803274

Want to know a secret? I work for GW believe it or not.

Primaris marines are not replacing "manlet" marines, like some people seem to think. In fact, they are not a supplement either. They are entirely a temporary thing made for story purposes and to generate sales of a new thing.

Guilliman is being set up to die in the near future, and the Primaris project with him. GW will plan on releasing truescale versions of regular marines soon afterward.

>>56803292
Then, go for this beautiful tank.
It has a very long barrel.

I'm sorry, but that still looks like shit.

non-meme question, is the vanq good on alpha-mars due to:

>Co-axial weapon: If during the same Shooting phase this model fires its Conqueror battle cannon at the same
target as its co-axial storm bolter, it may re-roll any hit rolls with its Conqueror battle cannon. >The same rule
applies if the model has a Vanquisher battle cannon and co-axial heavy stubber.

I'm not a fan of the more waifufag bits like the massive stilettos and the UHHHHH STEP ON ME attitude some people have when writing them

I don't think it would give you the same effect
And it might end up melting in a way that kills you with the fumes instead of just turning into a splodge

>>56803313
If you're going to just make shit up, at least make it something believable.

Is there anything important I miss out on by taking blood Angels with no primaris? I don't really want to do a mixed army.

Is there any way to make an Ultramarine successor interesting?

>>56802801
Those guys would look neat as Word Bearers or Iron Warriors

>>56803264
Looks like gender issues.

>>56803338
>absolutely disgusted by everyone who isn't as evangelical

can't compare to the level of disgust the emperor himself holds for them for being absolute fucking retards

>>56803356
I don't own primaris, I'm just able to rub enough brain cells together to tell that GW won't squat their new model line

>>56803362
Fugggg :DDD
I was actually going to do it too.

>>56803371
Not really. Primaris are almost entirely shooty, and Blangels prefer to be melee marines

>>56803373
Focus on the Greco-Roman angle. Maybe make them Space Athenians, a chapter that does a lot of art, politicking, and loves their navy.

>>56803371
Just the primaris units. It's not really a mixed army though since they still benefit from BA shit.

>>56803337
It's superior to the ordinary Vanq, for the same point cost. It's cool choice.

>>56803343
>Death Riders
>bad
They have some nice survivability against small arms fire, can chew through MEQ squads when charging, have 4 attacks each, and can kinda deep strike if you take 4 of them to form a cavalry command squad. They're a solid unit. Each rider only costs 3pts more than a Tac Marine.

>>56803279

>>56803181

>>56803303
Furries are scum

>>56803371
Overpriced models that are difficult to fit in cover and are barely worth their points cost.
So not much really, it's like playing Chaos and choosing not to field Mutilators, you don't get Mutilators but it's not a big deal.

It's kind of cheating when you include the emperor
And I mean, it's not as if they don't have evidence to support their ideas, they DO have a lot of miracles that are demonstrably impossible without the emperor or someone else meddling with things through the warp
They're wrong about why it happens and shit but they still manage to get shit done

>>56803073
Well yea if you are running in insanely into a middle of a shooting army then you should be punished. The problem with the way things currently works is that even if you do pick prime targets and have multiple assault units. For those units to do any any damage your going to need to spend tons of points which limits the amount of units you have in general and most of the time those targets you chose wont die in that first round of combat and will just fall back and your CC unit is destroyed. So even will careful planning most of the time if you are an assault heavy army you still lose to shooting.

>>56802931
>What the fuck does Alpha Legion actually do besides fucking around in secrecy?

Depending on who you ask, either nothing or everything.

Honestly they were the sole reason there was any chaos influence outside of the immediate area of the eye of terror and a canon reason to encounter CSMs or massive Chaos cults literally fucking anywhere.

I'd argue they are the most successful traitor legion simply because the keep the fire kindled without the need for support or recognition.

To be fair, if he meant "and the secrets of the primaris project with him" that would be more plausible, where the Primarines exist but are doomed to die out over time.

>>56803371

Aside from that not really. BA intercessors are good and better than than tacticals or sniper scouts IMO, but you can do fine with mainly CC scouts and a few tacs or snipers for troops.

>>56803424
Why the Death Rider hate ? I've never actually played them myself, but on paper they look pretty cost effective. Also, in the only 8thEd batrep I've seen featuring a squad of these, they more than made up their point cost by charging CSMs.

>>56803046
Centurions with Helbrute bits and other assorted CSM bits works, apply greenstuff and paint as desired.

Would anyone give a shit if I converted a Lieutenant out of the easy to build Reivers? Same armor stats as normal power armor.

>>56803454
This is acceptable

>>56803466

Secondaris Liutenants exist.

And nah, Intercessors lack either the cheapness of scouts or the two squads of special and combi-special in a rhino utility of Tacs.

>>56803496
Literally no one

>>56803496
yes
Why not convert one out of actual normal power armour if you don't want him in mkX

What kit(s) would I need to get if I wanted to make great sword wielding space marines? I want a squad of space marines that are not holding a gun at all, and are holding a sword in both hands

>>56803046
>since their model is straight garbage?
Shit taste. Oblits look fucking dope

>>56803501
Bolt Rifle Intercessors cost the same as sniper scouts. They're a better option for backline objective campers.

>>56803488
You would need to be a fucking pro at green stuff to pull something like this off.

>>56803520
Grey Knights have a two handed sword, shouldn't be too hard to remove the storm bolter on the wrist and use them

>>56803442

>>56803496

I wouldn't mind but be aware that if an opponent tries to field a conversion I don't like, I eat their model in front of them.

>>56802996
No shit. Abnett's writing is still better than a lot of the Mil Sci-Fi trash out there though, not the best, but still a lot better.

>>56802722
They're jungle fighters and have been trained in fieldcraft by their Kroot allies extensively. Thus they rely on foot mobility and cover, have a modular forest camo depending on the role and favour small agile battlesuits like stealthsuits as opposed to vehicles or monstrous big waac-y shit. Also sniper pathfinders, lotsa grunts and some local lizardman allies (counts-as Kroot)

Also drop-flamer crisis suits, because they're basically Vietnam T'au. Thinking of adding a Sunshark bomber for dat Napalm drop.

>>56803529
This is what I aspire to and I will achieve it, you can too and so can anyone else with enough time and effort.

>>56803542

Well, you can also use the spare space in those Razorbacks you've been spamming to disgorge some dual combi Tacs.

I want to like these but they just look so lame and yet so well done all at once. Centurions really are hot garbage even a greenstuff master couldn't save them

>>56803529
>>56803571
Just do what every other csm does, make sacrifices to the dark gods. Instead of striving for becoming a daemon prince, just ask them for better greenstuff skills.

How big is the Orruk Megaboss to say the Blackreach Warboss? Or to Ghazghkull?

Have the datasheets for Blood Angels dreads leaked yet

>>56803442
um die? I mean the whole point of them is to hard counter psykers. Your best bet is to wait it out until some other unit becomes flavour of the month. Once people stop spamming psykers culexus becomes quite inefficient so you'll see fewer of them

>>56803590

A good deal bigger. Ghazzy is on the same base size as an Orruk brute, that bastard's on the same size as a dreadnaught I think

I haven't fleshed out all the details, so maybe you guys could help me out connecting the dots and tying in my ideas to the bigger picture. My Sept was started as a colony on a lush marshy planet, but due to logistical problems they began with a pretty wonky caste distribution. While there were plenty of able hands to work, there were not nearly enough ethereals to keep them in line and run the planet. Now you might think that this would lead to some farsight revolution bullshit, but I prefer keeping with the grimdark of the setting so I want the few ethereals on the planet to have doubled down on their mind control, pheromones in the tap, and propaganda tactics to keep the population in line. To the point where genetic tampering, hypnotic suggestion, and cybernetic implants have created a nearly hive minded population that is highly regulated by A.I. (not quite tynanid levels, but basically everything terrible anyone ever claimed the tau did come true).

I also enjoy the trope of tau naivety, so I wanted to play with that a little as well. I was thinking these guys really started organizing their military in response to whatever swamp monsters or aliens originally occupied the planet (maybe tyranids, it doesn't much matter). Being practitioners of kauyon ambush fighting they adopted a green color scheme with some camo to blend in. Here's the kicker - they use safety orange to identify each other in the brush because their normal prey can't easily distinguish between green and orange (like a lot of earth animals), but the tau have no idea that humans/orks/eldar can tell these colors apart so they just think all the other factions have really amazing senses.

I also need a name...

I feel like having all these desert guys beside a commisar in a trench coat, and a Cadian heavy weapons, would look a bit wonky.

There's something really satisfying about weighted model bases.

If you make some lazy convertions then I will let you know that your army looks like shit. It isn't much different from unpainted armies.

>>56803676
To be honest he's not wrong it was basically 2nd wave feminism wank.

>>56803659
It's probably fine, but I think they look a lot more fitting when converted.

>>56803685

My Raveners have shit balance, what should I do with them?

They did but gw took it out.

>>56803714
Hey, second-wave feminism was pretty good. Don't knock it.

>>56803263
Yvraine suffers from being in the worst GS book, as do the Visarch and the Yncarne. I think the author just turned in his rough first draft and called it a day.

>>56803729
I dunno but my dudes got rocks on their base. Can drop them onto the table (from like an inch or so) and they land on their bases. Feels amazing.

They're the religious Imperial faction. They represent the church in the game. Black Templars share that somewhat now, but even after their full introduction in C:A it took a while for that flavor for BTs to make it to the tabletop.

>>56803814
Yeah I get it. I just don't like this stage of it. Maybe it'll be better when it's done, but the colours, while good together, clash when done like THAT.

Real camo uses colours and patterns that occur in nature to break up a silhouette. This is just "here's a colour scheme slapped together". Not every colour scheme is conducive to camo. Still, I commend the guy for trying, just needs to work hard.

>>56803876
She's definitely retarded in a literal sense.

Thinking of kitting a 5 man death company squad for dealing with hordes with 3 hand flamers. Are they worth it with the price reduction, or is S3 still too weak to be useful?

>>56803454
I love their models. I want to bring them both in games, but people get butthurt because I want to use them by 2 big Bullgryn squads.

>>56803869

Please; you aren't a roadblock, you're like a snack.

>>56803819
eh you're in GKs should be a competitive army territory here. The problem isn't the assassin, the problem is that your army is ultra reliant on psykers. If you were playing a more conventional army you'd find the assassin to be a minor embuggerance

>>56803897

Her denies are comfy that's about it for what it will do. Also dem heels. I'd combine Sisters with my Guard, but I'm not going to do metal models again.

>>56803898

I don't know what the is, but you're the irl faggot here, so do tell us

each faction should have its own individual custom detachments as a way to keep command points from being grossly in favour of horde armies

>>56803373
Make them fall to Slaanesh for wanting to be more perfect than their predecessors.

>>56803947
It'd be cool.

>>56803947

how tf do you balance that

>>56803894
Kills 2 guardsmen or gaunts, or 1 boy.

Storm bolters are far better.

>>56803816
>>56803885

So ive been a long time Dark Angels player but I did not own any Primaris Marines up until now. Would this be ok building off of the Dark Imperium book with what we know from the spoilers for the new dex?

>>56802885
No. If you set the site to US it still shows prices in pounds.

>>56803894
Typically I'd think you could probably kill more with 3 guns over the multiple turns it takes to get to them.

Unless you really need to kill like 3 dudes that are charging in a horde of 30.

>>56803959
about as well as GW balances everything else

>>56803885

what about the 4 boobgina

>>56803905
>GKs should be a competitive army territory here.
They should be. Any faction that gets its own standalone books should be a functional standalone faction.

>The problem isn't the assassin, the problem is that your army is ultra reliant on psykers
No, the problem is that it's an 80 model that's not only extremely difficult to kill and quite lethal and that it also has a massive penalty to psykers in a massive radius. If they're going to make multiple armies that are heavily reliant on X, then they shouldn't make a single cheap model that lets you completely fuck over X.

>>56803959
bring em back

>>56803959
Same as it was done in 5th, gate it behind an HQ choice that provides you with the FoC. For instance, Robert Gorilla let's you take a 6 CP detatchment of Primaris only marines, requires 3 troops and one of each other slot. Boom.

>>56803816
Got this model a little while ago, really decent quality cast with pretty much zero casting issues.

>>56803959
So they don't have a billion fucking command points?

E.g. you have dudes that cost 3-4 they need twice as many units to get the 3 cp.

>>56803998
I’d be fine with them if the only bonus they had was 2-3CP.

>>56803782
>maybe more...

After all, as you got titties on top of titties, you can put stuff between them as well in a grid pattern. Though you probably need non-euclidian geometry to pull such a feat, which shouldn't bee too hard for a daemon.

Why has fucking nobody used ironjawz to make ard boys and meganobs and shit? when Orks get a codex I'll be tempted to do it myself.

>>56802989
>Only going Dark Angels since he is my favourite Primarch
Serious question. Why on Earth?

>>56803734
Posting mine because why not

>>56804076
>Why has fucking nobody used ironjawz to make ard boys and meganobs and shit?
I'm pretty sure that was GWs entire reasoning for releasing Ironjawz, they figured with all the metal plate they looked more like 40k Space Orks so people who didn't play AoS would buy them for conversions.

The fact that not enough people are doing that is probably why Orks will get jack shit for good updates in the future, GW will take it to mean no one cares about Orks

I really like getting big army dudes but i hate the idea of having an army of them or having shit like knight big.

>>56804092

>>56803833

But if you were playing a more conventional army it wouldn't be a problem is my point.

Why are DE special characters so shit? Lelith hits like a wet noodle. Urien is hard to kill and that's it. Drazhar would be decent if his weapons weren't fucking D1. Vect is kill.

>>56803768
Love these.

Action poses are fucking overrated

>>56804223
>Glorious
That's a funny way to spell "fat and derpy looking with pathetic stubs for arms".

I took a minute of autismo to calculate the expected mortal wounds caused from 'Eadwoppa's Killchoppa on a charge. It's not terrible, but if Orks ever get access to a +1 to wound aura/power/ability/whatever it could be quite good.

>>56803496
I did the opposite and used Intercessor models with chainswords and pistols as Reivers.

>>56804279
Gun line is one of my favorites personally.

>>56804223
that looks hideous

>>56804223
Angry Ron is coming for you!

>>56804270
With the new WL trait, Lelith will kill 5 Marines. She is also the only one who can use it, so there's that.

>>56804223
>we will never get an appropriate model for the Beast

>>56804248
So it's okay to have an 80 point model that fucks over multiple other armies, as long as you could just play a different army? The Culexus is wildly underpriced for how effective and durable it is.

Let's see them add an assassin that has an 18" bubble of -1 to hit with shooting attacks. See how many people respond with "just don't try to shoot people."

>>56804356
I just like it when squads are in same positions. It bugs the fuck out of me when a 10 man squads has 1 guy in running pose while the rest are shooting/reloading.

>KYLE! GET THE FUCK BACK KYLE!

>>56804389
Hey, Anon, if you're just going to spread disinformation, don't bother posting. We're a GW-positive forum.

>>56804394

No, it fucks over players who over-rely on psykers. It's a hard counter to your build, you don't have to organise a 1ksons army that way. You are choosing to

>>56804446
Who's Reece? I'm just an Anon who's tired of people being so ungrateful for the gifts that GW has slaved to provide for us. I see people complaining about the Ork stratagem, and I'm like "Hey, haven't you guys noticed that it could potentially DOUBLE your firepower!" And, jeez, have you seen that new Thousand Sons power? It can up to nine (9!) Mortal Wounds with a single casting.

>>56804481

>>56804084
Before I started reading the fluff, my idea of space marines was uncaring warriors who's role was to kill xenos and chaos, and fuck the innocent casualities in the process. The Lion personifies that conception for me. Plus he's mysterious.

>>56804503
I'm thinking I might print off the new points cost for my army in the Chapter Approved and sticking it in my codex as a bookmark.
Because I don't want to pay 55$ for a points FAQ and some rules I'm never going to use.

Has Necromunda been DoA everywhere else or is just a local thing? The FLGS ordered ~20 copies (which is about normal for these big box games, he sells online too in order to keep the store afloat), and they've only sold like four. They've been having the same issue with Chapter Approved.

>>56803965
True, but I don’t have that many Storm Bolter bits
>>56803973
Should I just stick to bolters? Or is anti horde just not the best choice for death company?

>>56804626
>I don’t have that many Storm Bolter bits
You realize a Storm Bolter is just two regular Bolters glued together, right?

Tau minis would be cooler if they had a button to line up their guns or open up things like hidden shoulder mounted rocket launchers or guns.

That and karate chop action

>>56804497
You have access to Tzaangors, Chaos Cultists, Helbrutes, Heldrakes Chaos Spawn, Defilers, Vindicators, Predators, Land Raiders, Forgefiends and Maulerfiends.
