>>92738173>What army initially drew you into the Warhammer 40,000 universe?50/50 between Tau and Necrons
>TQBlack templars, then the idea of Slaanesh, Then World Eaters solidified my stay.
>>92738173Are there any good Warhammer horror novels or crime ones? Anon talking about an Arbites book has me wondering.
>>92738230this is 4chan sir, all the novels are shit.
>>92738190Tau went undefeated at Richmond last weekend with no crisis no tetrasShadowsun, Darkstrider, Longstrike3 breacher fish3 ghostkeel3 riptidessquad of pathfinders.Most tau lists moved away from the cyclic brick on the last points hike.
>>92738237Pulp isn’t shit, it’s pulp. It knows exactly what it’s supposed to be.
>>92738173>What army initially drew you into the Warhammer 40,000 universe?Admech lore and general nonsense, the horror toaster fuckers just scratched that Strogg itch, then before I could buy anything I gazed upon the Tyranids and my love for Contra, dinosaur/bugs and Geiger in general took over completelyAdmech technically got me in, Tyranids sealed the deal
>>92737647>>92737888Units are playable from the space marine tier upwards. Legendary units like farseers are about 5x stronger but can only be spawned rarely. Elite units like terminators are 2-3x stronger. Space marine tier units can be spawned indefinitely. There is a relatively low chance you will run into much more powerful units.Low tier units like guardsmen are bots that can be spawned with points that you can get from doing pve and pvp objectives. Bot armies can be directed. It may also be possible to claim 1-2 bots, making them follow you. This interactivity is an important fun factor. The pve objectives are as follows:Imperium: repair and start up automated factories on the industrial planet. Resources are sent to the orbit. The smoke can give away your location and enemies can attack the factory.Votann: mine for minerals and send them to a pickup point where bots will pick it up from the orbitEldar: mine for psychic crystals that can be used to create portals that will provide a reasonably safe passage to the eye of terror (from where the eldar can get more soulstones for fluff)Dark eldar: stun NPCs living in the game world and bring them to a pickup point where a bot ship will appear to pick them upTau: use a hypnotic device to brainwash NPCs living in the game world and bring them to a pickup point where a bot ship will appear to pick them upChaos: impale corpses on chaos shrines until the shrine is complete and it activates and you get pointsTyranids: TBAOrcs: TBANecrons: TBA
>>92738255nope, all the novels are terribly written they are also not canon. If you don't get with the narrative soon you might get banned
This feels like a pretty natural matchup, in the same vein as the CSM and Dark Angels squaring off in the previous box.Bring out a new BA unit on one side, and the Weirdboy for the Orks.
>>92738203
>>92738243>TAU HAVE A NON CRISIS SKEW FINALS PLACING>Look inside>Its Riptide and Ghostkeel Skew with Fish-of-Fury taped to the side, held together by every applicable character... and a crisis suitWow that's so much better.
>>92738276some anons were planning an op to try to say the prices are discriminatory, but of course, all this board cares about are trannies and it never went anywhere
>>92738243Also:>High Noon Showdown 2024, 1st Place>The Los Angeles Classic GT ’24, 2nd Place (Undefeated)>Iron Cage GT: Bedford Beatdown, 2nd Place (Undefeated)This is just in the past 3 weeks, and no Crisis Bricks to be found.
>>92738296Yea 500 point crisis brick just wasnt worth it anymore.Especially since Wraithguard/CSM bricks were gone and you were left dick in hand at nothing to shoot at since Necrons went wide with wraiths/ctan
>>92738291it's an idea too absurd to go anywhere without it being immediately recognised as a racist joke, and the only serious answer you could get for whining, in the most unbelievable turn of events where it would even be acknowledged and somehow accepted, would have been a discount offered to joggers in exchange of increasing the price for everyone else if you want a real psyop try pipe bombing black library or gw and framing dissatisfaction for the squattings of certain models as the motive
>>92738288>ask for a top placing list that doesn’t use a crisis brick>be provided with one>still cope and seethe
>>92738291>some anons were planning an opAn "op", you fucking cringelord?
Good morning, just spent a grand on figures
>>92738354not even a photo of the receipt? just slop? you're even worse than the average boxposter
>>92738354Congrats on your 800 points of Admech
>>92738360Why would I post a photo of the receipt?
>>92738350Nigga I ain't even that guy, I'm currently putting together point to see if I got a fucking army anymore after all these price drops. I just find it deranged to say "Oh you know what's the solution to these cancerous big mech lists? Bigger mechs. Totally 10/10 list, take this one to grand finals."Fuck you.
>>92738383Bragging rights? authenticity? so we can insult you for your choice of models while you can be smug about it?
>>92738392why would you play tau if you're not into mechs. thats their entire thing
>>92738412no it isn't, tourist
>>92738404Eh.
>>92738415They invented that army to sell mechs
>>92738412I am into mechs retard, my mechs are now fucking battleline.
Think Im gonna buy a second Kroot box before price hike. Nobody is buying them here so there isnt a chance to get them used anyway.>>92738412Because Tau got the best infantry and vehicles in the game and yes riding other Kroot counts as a vehicle for this.
>>92738427playing a tau army without mechs is like playing a chaos space marine army without chaos space marines. it defeats the whole point, like those dumbass cultist and fiend spam lists that were going around last year
>>92738412Because I like modern conventional warfare.
>>92738441people used to do that though because cultists were way more efficient.
>>92738415Their first codex had command battlesuits, stealth suits, crisis suits, and broadside suits. Meanwhile they had a single transport and a single tank that was the same transport but with a gun on top. Tau have always been mecha centric
Warhammer
>>92738444Then you should have picked guard
>>92738455Guard is for people who like WW1 and WW2 conventional warfare.
Ork boys to t3
>>92738415
>>92738441What if you want to play an arch-traitor army of cultists and traitor guard with Traitor Lemon Russ?
>>92738245Not if you're playing a game before he died or during the Macharius Campaign anon. Do you always see your games as taking place in "current date" M41? Do not never play narrative campaigns? Surely you've gone back and played events of the Armageddon War or Badab War?
>>92738243>>92738031Are we talking about codex Tau? Then this whole reply chain has been pointless because the only crisis suits that can take CIBs are the commanders, and they can only take 1 now.
>>92738467Based post non-reader
>>92738464You play normal guard rules but you put spikes on your models
>>92738464>what if i want to play a niche within a niche within a niche because im a special boy and i want my gold star for bringing something no one else has to show and tell
>>92738441Obviously you have some mechs in your army cause they are awsomoe but there is more to them then that. And again I 100% started Tau cause the infantry looked cool. If Fire Warriors and Kroot were just regular humans I wouldnt even touch the faction.
>>92738458Ah yes, the battles in WWII where dudes ziplined out of VTOL aircraft in full body armor to shoot plasma guns at 8 foot tall green Germans.
>>92738173Big and pretty copy of the OP image.
>>92738464Aren't Lost and the Damned still a thing? Forgive me, I've never played a game in my life.
>>92738259My own clone!
>>92738458Is the Chalnath killteam box set still around, or is it all sold out by now?
>>92738354What did you buy? One forgeworld squad?
>>92738441You still need mechs or tanks in your Kroot lists because otherwise you cannot deal with tanks or monsters
>>92738503Congratulations, you're describing a tiny sliver of the most elite Guard that does that. Meanwhile, that's pretty much the standard MO of the Tau's basic troops.
>>92738458whenever someone brings up Germany (because we all know you're going to) I immediately write off everything they say.
>>92738467>Are we talking about codex Tau?No.
>>92738173This image and specifically this codex.Was the first 40k thing I ever bought.The Calgar portrait in the special character section is why I played Ultramarines for the longest time too.Now I play a different chapter but my love for Calgar and the Ultramarines still remainsm
>>92738539I never bought that one. I had the blood angels one.
>>92738484No one ever gave me a gold star.
>>9273850340k is a historical game bro
>>92738506They're called Traitors and Renegades and GW eliminated them because Traitors are chaos marines now.
>>92738441>playing a chaos space marine army without chaos space marinesI literally do this.
>>92738458I'm not seeing a problem with that?
>>92738572
>>92738528>that time on arkunasha they trolled the orks to death by denying them battle, completely stopped waagh from building, sniped the biggest ork in each group so they would kill each other without the tau having to lift a finger, and still lost the entire planet
>>92738579
>>92738441Why would you use such a viable example for this
>>92738528Based selective reader and head-canon pilled
>>92738230The first two stories in "The Wicked and The Damned" are pretty good horror/crime stories in an EC comics kinda way but the last story is fucking great. The last story is just a great horror scifi that's made better if you know Warhammer lore because you realize the implications of what's happening.
>>92738590You say viable but what you mean is WAACshit, because that's what it was.
Just realized that I married a woman who looks very Tau, she's short and bald lmao
>>92738605Cool beans, I’ll check them out.
>>92738612...is she blue and has hoofs?
>>92738608Are you sincerely saying that any CSM army that doesn't contain actual marines is WAAC? Because I lose a lot of fucking games with my Daemon Engine list.
>>92738616N-no.
>>92738628I genuinely don't think that guy knows what any of these words mean, and is just shitposting for its own sake
>>92738612watch out, could be a genestealer
>>92738589>>92738579>>92738572OK now this is based
>>92738579>undrilled barrelsSo close and yet so far
>>92738441Hey it's not my fucking fault they won't make Darkmech or Traitor Guard their own thing.>/40kg/: lol dude just make a CSM list with no CSM you don't need a codex of your own>/40kg/: NOOOOOO YOU HAVE TO TAKE LEGIONARIES YOU HAVE TO
>>92738662You'd drill out the barrels on infantry aye?
>>92738666if you don't want chaos marines then play your traitor guard models as either imperial guard or genestealer cults
>>92738666When was the last time a good CSM list actually included any legionaries in it? Admittedly haven't been keeping track, but ever since the helturkey era in 6th it always seems like some gimmick list with cultists as troops and as little actual chaos marines as possible.
>>92738173>What army initially drew you into the Warhammer 40,000 universe?Necromunda and Mordheim. 1st minis I bought were Dark Eldar and Daemon Hunters. Was using Redemptionist Inquisitors for a long time.
>>92738681you could also paint the hole black
>>92738662you're not supposed to drill the barrels of a plasma weapon
>>92738706fr?
>>92738700>
>>92738713the plasma is pushed through a hole the size of a pin head, it's be invisible on a 28mm mini
>>92738720Doubt
Ask someone who just spent 600$ on Kroot anything Yes I am playing Kroot onlyNo I will not buy any crisis suits
>>92738720Somebody should probably tell GW, cause all the plasma guns they have painted on their website have a bore hole drilled or painted.
>>92738682haha jokes on youI can play my genestealer cults as guard, voidsmen and cultists. Just slap a helmet on a neophyte and you have jank armored space suits.
>>92738720Wtf, no it isn't you maniac, have you literally never seen ANY art of a plasma gun.
>>92738530>whenever someone brings up GermanyMASSIVE lorelet detected. Always lurk before posting, anon, especially when you clearly have nothing to contribute to the subject.
>>92738734that's a mars pattern plasma. it's more of parabola meant to better direct the trajectory of the plasma towards its target>>92738744i have read a lot of the lore surrounding plasma weaponry
>>92738744tbf all of the art i found was showing them sideway
>>92738735Remember to link me the ebay when you're gonna sell everything
>>92738735Surely you bought the sprues on eBay when they were 10 Kroot for 30 bucks, right?
>>92738735>kroot playerhow many dog dicks do you take daily?
>>92738735Based Krootnoisseur
>>92738605Are they standalone stories or do you have to read them in order?
>>92738735Just Kitbash some Kroot to look like Broadsides since without those Kroot are at the mercy of winning by points by clogging objectives
>>92738195Eldar. I remember pretend playing as the warlock art from my older brothers codex. But I had to play tau cause he already had the eldar.
>>92738593Tempestus Scions =/= The entire Imperial Guard
>>92738717beats whatever you're doing
>>92738783I'm not selling shit, I'm not one of those retards who never builds and paints their shit. I just finished my Eldar army and a more casual xenos army next.>>92738794I don't want old ugly models>>92738796I hate dogs I'm actually a cat person>>92738802Based fellow Kroot Chad>>92738818I don't plan to play above 1.2k at most anyway so unless my opponent is running some absolutely stupid skew list I will have 1 or 2 tanks to move block the shit out of at most.
>>92738877Aren't those new frog rider Kroot okay AT? You might not need to get silly if you keep a few of those lying about.
>>92738203The only solution is to bully everyone.>haha that political paint job is cringe>lel you have female models in your army? >kek you bought the new release? pay up pay pig>heh you read the new shitlore slop that some zoomie writer made?>haha you read lore made after 2010?etc etc
>>92738557>we're da fastest, and the meanest dere izany models/units that were not in DoW 1 are zoomie shit
I don't know how you guys can spend hundreds of dollars at once, when it takes forever for me to assemble and paint a single combat patrol box. FOMO effect?
>>92738276Does anyone have the "Warhammer is for ME" edit?
>>92738948Who?
Does anyone else feel completely checked out of 40k at this point? It kind of feels like WoW for me. I used to get really mad at Blizzard with all of the dumb shit they did with the game. I would bitch and moan on the forums and comments on youtube videos of how they kept dumbing down everything, catering to meta fags, botching and making ridiculous retcons to the lore, until eventually over time the game was just a complete shadow of what it once was. Squeezing out every dime from the player. Censoring shit. Everything completely braindead to the point the game played itself unless you did mythic raiding. I used to get angry, but then I just stopped caring. People will point out how Warcraft used to be really cool and testosterone filled setting about war and now it's a furry fest about feelings. All the while you had the same types of people as you do here constantly telling people over and over that the game and setting isn't actually getting worse you're just idolizing a past that didn't exist, things are better now than ever, yatta yatta yatta. Same shit different asshole. But now no one can really make those arguments, especially when classic came out and proved the old game was actually better.I've feel like I've gone through the same thing again with warhammer. I'd get angry, bitch and moan, but eventually you just get exhausted from that. People will always say "Lol, why do you care about a plastic space man game! It's LITERALLY TOYS for TODDLERS" or some other inane shit, willfully ignorant to the fact that a good product MAKES PEOPLE CARE. As a business you WANT people to care. Because the saying goes, anger doesn't kill a product, apathy does. If people are angry and bitching and moaning, that means people are invested in your product. Tell them to "lol why do you care" enough times and eventually they stop caring.The lore is shit, 10th is disgustingly boring, and it's filled with spiteful culture warriors. If they don't care why should I?
>>92738960Newfag, I’m not reading all that. Be less of a tryhard newfag.

>>92738960Didn't read, but "awooga" none the less.Wish she had long hair though.
>>92738948>I don't know how you guys can spend hundreds of dollars at onceI'm Australian. Hundreds of dollars is a combat patrol or boxed set.

>>92738985>he plays at GW>he doesnt play at an LGS that he has been at for years and knows all the staff and are friends withwe say the gamer word at my LGS. Everyone is cool and a bunch of us have been friends and playing together since high school
>>92738960Dios mio, mucho texto autismono te extrañarán
>>92738901>if I act like an obnoxious faggot that'll totally make people hate GW instead of hating me for acting like an obnoxious faggotThere is a reason why negative reinforcement rarely ever works on people.Humans are extremely stubborn creatures and you acting like a cunt wont make them do what you want, instead they'll tend to go out of their way to do the exact opposite to piss you off and to show you have no control over them.
>>92738291A thread was made outlining the operation to troll gw. It was shut down. And even the 40kg thread such an op was discussed on got deleted too. Don’t revision history.>source: I am that fag who started it and got the hammer thrown at me
>>92738985>excuse me sir, we heard you were harassing leftist cringe customers.>thank you for your service. >clapsfixed
>>92739008I'm sure you would like everyone with a differing opinion to be the same person, but it's rarely the case
>>92738982>>92738995Why is it this general specifically bitches about long posts? Seriously no one else bitches nearly as much as this general.
>>92738948Gotta spend now to save ~5%.
>>92738354It’s okay anon I think I’ve spent a grand on resin 40kg proxy minis
>>92739015>There is a reason why negative reinforcement rarely ever works on people.Are you retarded?How does every fashion trend start? why do people want luxury cars despite them being over priced pieces of shit? Why cant people admit they like certain things? Why do people go to the gym and try to lose weight? Why do people wear makeup?social pressure influences everyone. you get bullied now for playing the wrong video games.>wha? you still play X? we play Y now.Go try and get people into warmachine
>>92739008
>>92738995>she
>>92739026Because long posts in other threads are just long posts. Long posts in this thread are someone's schizo blogpost ravings that I have no interest in
>>92739011Silencio minoritario
>>92739015I do not admit i watch wrestling or certain anime in public because of negative reinforcement, and I quit collecting funko pops because i was made fun of and couldn't rationalize buying them over 40k once i was challenged on it . It works.
Sex with Eldar ladies
>>92739066>funky pops>wrestling Some things should be bullied out of people afterall
>>92738960You're not going to get through to anyone here because they are redditors and discord fags. They will defend this game and the shitty changes they rooted for to the death because it's their team. They don't want to be told their wrong and they will pretend everything is fine and delude themselves until the very end. They'll say shit unironically like the game will never die.
>>92738173TQ: The 2nd edition box set. Before that, I had the rogue trader book, but only ever read through it. With the 2nd edition box, me and my friends actually started to play.
>>92738458That's their aesthetic, sure, but you can have your Guard army fight like a modern army. My old Guard army (before I lost it) was based off of the unit I was in when I was in the Army. Hardly ever won with it though because my unit was a cav scout troop, which means no real heavy weapons or tanks so I got stomped by anyone who brought any real armor or firepower to the tabletop.
>>92739074Just like playing nuSlop and reading Marvel 40k nuLore
>>92738505Cheers anon.
>>92738960Yes, I agree to some extent. Apathy has stepped in but that’s not just with 40k, that’s with almost everything current day.
>>92738572Ace has amazing tanks indeed
>>92739015Speaking from personal experience I literally got bullied out of liking pokemon back in gradeschool. People don't want to look uncool. This is why people conform to shit IRL.
Faction strength list:1. Imperium2. Necrons3. Tyranids (below necrons since necrons counter them)4. Orcs and Chaos5. Votann and Dark Eldar7. Eldar and Tau
>>92739020Kek, perfect
>>92739117>Tau on the same level as EldarWrong, Eldar are even weaker than Tau.
>>92738985Anyone who refers to this shit as "LE PLASTIC SPACEMAN TOYS!" is a faggot redditor who should fuck off and go find another hobby to ruin.
>>92739124Nah, they can see into the future and shit
>>92739132That just means they can see themselves losing in advance.
>>92739117>Orks (reel good at krumpin)>Uvva gits dat can't fight so good
>>92738898They're ok vs shit like Sentinels but vs things like Dreadnoughts hell no. They're D6 attacks 2 damage each so even if you god roll all 6's that's 12 damage per turn at most for a 90 point not very tough unit.Also points update for the Tau just dropped on the app. My Kroot stuff comes out to exactly 995 points, excellent.
>>92739091>be boomer me >go to GW in the 90s for first time in packed store>see demo game of 2nd edition starter>orc guy is moving up the flanks in the card terrain>SM guy is camping in some other ruins and the card terrain with the little ledge for the 2nd floor>GW staff member teaching them to play uses the GM rocket launcher guy to shoot at the ruins some orcs are in, and the debris from the explosion kills some I didnt even know if that was in the rules or not because it was my first exposed to warhammer but i was like "this is fuckin awesome"
>>92739046> the fashion industry explicitly bullies you> the car industry explicitly bullies youAre you absolutely daft, cunt? Your examples are of industries that have been, for decades, convincing people — through flash, pomp, circumstance, etc — that they NEED their product. They don’t directly bully people, you stupid faggot. They discretely convince you to buy their product because if not “you won’t be as beautiful as you can be” or “you won’t have all the horsepower and flash to drive”. It’s about marketing jargon, subliminal messaging, and a societal pressure fomented through years and years of reinforcement learning. Please stop acting as if you have even a modicum of understanding how societal pressures act to influence an individual’s life. It certainly isn’t direct, overt bullying. If it were that blatant, the industry wouldn’t exist.
>>92738818>Broadsides after todayoh no no no
>>92738628I'm sincerely saying that the accursed cultist spam / cultist mob + abbydabbydoo lists were WAAC not just "viable" and I think you've bashed your skull open if you can't understand that
>>92739052What's schizo about anything he said?
Is the Tau Codex PDF posted anywhere in English yet? I can find plenty in Spanish for some reason. (Before you ask: I'm trying to get a younger relative of mine into 40k.)
>>92739139I have no idea what I'm going to do about points:105 Farsight - 105275 Sunforge Crisis - 170385 Coldstar Commander - 110515 Starscythe Crisis - 130575 Darkstrider - 60665 Pathfinder Team - 90725 Stealth Team - 60785 Stealth Team - 60845 Stealth Team - 60Is as far as I've gotten. I could run a cheap crisis team (to be 3 for 3 on homing beacons) or throw in some fire warriors (gives me some flexibility cause I'll have all the kinds of units for both Compendium and Pathfinder Killteams if I wanna play that). If I'm probably best putting in at least one devilfish. Planning on running Retaliation Cadre, so broadsides or ghostkeels are also good candidates.I need to worry about enhancements too. Do people commonly play around 1250 points instead of 1000 at your locals? If I don't need to be shooting for a perfectly round number I can slide more in.
>>92738441What if I play an Adepta Sororitas army without a single woman in it?
>>92738960Agreed but wow always sucked
>>92739155oh lawdyou realize that Edward Bernays was Sigmund Freud's nephew and deliberately applied his knowledge of psychology to hack people's brains for all kinds of advertising, including political campaigns? Rhetorical question. You only need to see how people can be whipped into a frenzy over politics today to know I'm right.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJ3RzGoQC4sEven GW with it's FOMO strategy applies these techniques.It's aggressive and manipulative. Also overt and deliberate.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUwh-C5w7II
>>92739052this.
>>92739072
>>92739190Why would you use Tau to get someone into 40k instead of Space Marines?
How would you rate each faction on>Difficulty to assemble>Difficulty to paintFor a beginner?
>>92739221I find I have an easier time getting people to play 1.2k games vs 1k games because them marine piggies or other people who enjoy slop lists can at least bring their one stupid huge model. Most people are legit too scared to play 1k point games because they feel naked without a vehicle or something.Also don't bother with the Compendium Tau team it sucks balls, there is literally no reason to ever run it over the bespoke Tau team. You COULD just buy the bespoke team though and run it in normal 40k games as Firewarriors or Pathfinders and no one will care, I really doubt anyone will be able to tell the difference aside from the turret drone.
>>92739131
I'm new but do "minor" heretic legions get their detachments? Slaanesh is the only major god without a faction (soon to be changing with EC apparently) but I'm looking at Word Bearers in particular.
you may have seen 3d printed minis, now check out 2d printed 'crons
>>92739238Dude likes the naivety of the Tau and the chunky battlesuits. He really enjoyed Farsight so I painted up his first Killteam as Farsight Enclave dudes (Mixed with some of my old Guardsmen with Tau bits.)
>>92738810All three stories are part of a larger narrative, and it's better to read them in order. You can read them out of order for the most part but the endings won't make too much sense unless you readthe whole book.
Why do people keep saying GW is nuking FW shit because of some made up internal drama that there is 0 proof of vs the obvious answer: they want to phase out everything recasters sell because let's be honest fucking NOONE was buying FW shit legit and recast resin kits are basically impossible to tell apart from legit ones vs a resin recast of a plastic kit is much easier to tell apart and on top of that is awkward and a pain to assemble due to how the sprues are set up.
>>92739245I really like my stealth suits, so I at least want the option.
>>92739275but recasters sell everything, even modern plastic kits. this argument makes no sense
>>92739275>recast resin kits are basically impossible to tell apart from legit onesIt's easy: the recasts are higher quality.
>>92739254they are not 2d if you assemble them
>>92739282did you miss this part?>recast resin kits are basically impossible to tell apart from legit ones vs a resin recast of a plastic kit
>>92739275Isnt it because Brits have some weird law in place thats thwarting them?
>>92739131uh oh somebody's getting upset over the fact that they spend hundreds on figurines (plastic toys)
>>92739275>mfw I own an elysian drop troopers army, several CSM chars and daemon engines and HH upgrade kits (to use with my CSM) all from FW but apparently I didnt buy it because some obese smelly know it all frog posting fuck is commenting on shit he doesn`t know anything about because we already have a dozen former GW employees talking about the GW/FW divide on their podcasts/youtube shows
>>92739297the recast plastic kits are just as hard to tell apart unless a judge is coming over and physically picking up and torquing on your models
>>92739321probably, but if I have the option of working with plastic, even at a markup I'm probably opting for that
>>92739275>a pain to assemble due to how the sprues are set up.Digitally assemble the parts and print the entire mini. Simple.
>>92739275There's about a dozen reasons why they're phasing out FW resin and we'll never hear the exact reason. Could be liability reasons due to all the inherit risks of working with resin (aka, why OG Armorcast shut down and we got Forge World in the first place), could just be that the cost of refreshing the molds of models that people rarely buy isn't counterbalanced by the single grog who keeps buying the same Krieg squad over and over, etc. Would have zero reason to do with recasters, considering you can pretty much bootleg anything that GW has made in the past 25 years from Ivan or Cheng.
>>92739233If you grab an Eldar's ears will they die?
>>92739297>a resin recast of a plastic kitanon, resin is plastic
>>92739347nta but I paint literally everything in sub. This picture unsettles me.
>>92739114yeah! I love the Gunther, but I've a Necron army to finish up for a wee tournament before I'll allow myself to pile up any more unpainted vehicles.
>>92739275>plastic kit is much easier to tell apartThe only way somehow is going to know your plastic model is recast is if they come over to your model scratch the paint and varnish off and then try using plastic glue on the surface. Which no one is going to do.>but what about the imperfections recasts giveYoure using a bad recaster (probably a webstore one)
>>92739365I get painting in subassembly, but you would, in that case, really paint that body with a hole in his torso before gluing on the front of it?
>>92739357It would be extremely pleasurable.
>>92739297There are recasters who do plastic, like Webway. they do polyurethane instead of polystyrene though so you can't use the same plastic cement
>>92738948FOMO on a box that that is in regular stock?
>>92739275>Why do people keep saying GW is nuking FW shitBecause they areYou'll never get non-legend rules for fw products in gw games (40000, age of sigmar, kill team, warcry) and you'll never get non-legend rules for gw products in fw games (horus heresy, the old world, necromunda)cross compatibility, beyond legends rules, is now off the cards
>>92739336>here are your 3 space marines sir>that will be $60
>>92738948You know how you spent $130 dollars on a combat patrol box? It's exactly like that, but slightly bigger.
>>92739373>>92739373>>92739373>>92739373

>>92739372Yes.
>>92739413$140 and soon to be $150 with third party discounts. : )
>>92739368The Gunther is one of the few (Siegfried also) that i dont like as much. I cant really tell you why, because i actually like the sdkfz 250. I have almost 10 of their tanks by now, but still need some of the not-basilisks, and i also kinda want at least one superheavy because i want a Stormlord.
>>92739357Die of embarrassment maybe?
>>92739430>>92739413I bought my SoB combat patrol for $65 on FB marketplace
>>92739321No they're not, they're way lighter weight than plastic ones and they usually are riddled with defects.>but muh perfect god tier reddit recasterGuess what 99% of clueless normies don't use those they either 3D print god awful filament garbage or they buy from recasters you can find off of Google.
>>92739429W-why?
Just lost against orks as chad thousand sonsI hope that OP garbage army gets squatted. Fucking bullshit
>>92739443Damn you bought one of the most deceptive combat patrols for a price it should be reasonably be sold at.
>>92738901Man, those old chaplains are fantastic. The new ones are so shit.
>>92739357Why don't you come here and find out?
>>92739453>they usually are riddled with defects.You haven't seen a recast in a while, haven't you?

>>92739464We're all on the spectrum. This is my wavelength.
>>92739314>1% retard thinking he's the normAh yes, all the 2k point army Krieg and Elysian players at the LGS that I've met. You're right anon, I yield...
>>92739429this is the first time I've ever seen evidence of someone buying a pick n mix set
>>92739452Given how good the Imperium in general is at modifying biology (moreso than other tech) I don't see why people in the 40K universe would even view swapping genders as weird or unusual.
>>92739494Now that you are mentioning it. What is that?
>>92739479I can post a shitty recent recast but all you're gonna do is say>Well, that's because you didn't buy from my super secret god tier reddit recaster!
>>92739502thats not the point.the point is why he needed to put that shit in the story other than to date the novel to 2024 politics
>>92739494>>92739505I don't even know. I needed about a dozen paints for the army and they just stuck them in the box, so I've been priming on it.
>>92739505Warhammer store promotion where you buy 9 paints and get the 10th free.
>>92739514This
>>92739520wouldnt the meta strat be to pick out 9 paints and the 10th a technical paint that's more expensiveor do they pick the free one as the cheapest
>>92739520How generous
>>92739520Does not sound completely horrible desu, at least not for completely newbies or people that dont have other stores around.
>>92739502so where are my futa with dicknipples commissar models then?
>>92739514Because we live in a tribalistic age that is socio-dynamically trying to find an equilibrium point
>>92739502thats a interesting ogryn james
>>92739527My local GW gives you the most expensive one for free.
>>92739536It should be 1/4 desu, 1/10 is just jewy
>>92739527The meta strat would be to buy those 10 paints elsewhere, with the usual 20% discount you get them still cheaper, despite buying 10 instead of 9. Or just buy any competitors paint for half the price.
>>92739486>this retard making the same mistakewoah, stop the presses, you didnt personally meet a player of an army at your local dump of an LGS that probably accounts for a grand total of 0.000001% of all 40k players, dumb FUCK lmao you damn right you yield
>>92739549Yep, its still GW we are talking about.
>>92739376>they do polyurethane instead of polystyrene though so you can't use the same plastic cementthat's the whole deal, I'm addicted to plastic cement
>>92739527They do the most expensive one free, surprisingly enough. Actually I just looked it up, they shill it every time they announce a free mini of the month, and it USED to say the most expensive one was free, but the last 2 mini of the month announcements no longer say that.
>>92739478A Craftworld Eldar smiling feels unnatural to me. Like it's strange to consider them as being capable of feeling happiness.
>>92739514Does it though? Its just going to be more commonplace in future, even in our own time-frame. Look back on it in another 25 years and you'll probably not even bat an eyelid at it even if you don't really agree with it.
>>92739413I got my GSC Combat Patrol from Norway for 1050 Kron which is $95 and that's the retail GW price. No wonder why GW is increasing the prices in Norway by 14% compared to the 3-5% increase elsewhere.
Who's the funniest character in 40k? With said character books being fun stupid shit.
>>92739502If it's common and easy to to then the characters would not really mention it, having the characters talk about it is a hackneyed way of shorhorning it into the story. Now before you say "but then how would you know they're trans" I would ask is the entire point not to become the other gender? Imperial genetic manipulation can probably give you perfectly functional primary and secondary sex organs and alter your hormones and features to such an extent that you are indistinguishable from someone born whatever gender you want to be, so again, talking about it seems unnatural and forced.
>>92739565>addicted to plastic cementThat can't be good for your gut biome
>>92739502i just noticed mr "human bomb" too

>>92739582Someone green.
>>92739597Well, we'll see. Not worth going off topic about any further.
>>92739552Buying paint online is a complete crapshoot, and other LGS and hobby shops often have their paints sitting on the shelf for ages. Buying straight from a Warhammer store is the only way to get the freshest, crispiest paint.
>>92738173I heard Genestealers kiss menThat's pretty gay
>>92739616Look at UK where GW is basedits already over
>>92739581You can probably just get it from a 3rd Party seller cheaper than GW anyway.
>>92739569>>92739586At least in my store it is still the most expensive one you get for free. Last time I saw someone buy the pick and mix set they still did it like that. That was like 2 weeks ago or so.
>>92739636>Britain>Ahmed Munir
>>92739634it's more like a love bite than a kissthey say no homo afterwards though
>>92739589Well what's the exact line used in the book? If its just something like "I know another Verity, they used to be Caspian back in the day before they transitioned, do you remember Caspian?" its hardly a forced line of dialogue?
>>92739597Based, giving you secret janny bennies
>>92739582Hadron Omega-7-7 from Darktide.>>92739609I got mine from Midgard Games but I don't know if they ship it outside of Norway. I received my order in two days but it was within Oslo so not really a good indicator. Just email them.>>92739637Midgard sells it for 950 krone but I paid 100 for shipping so it matched the MSRP. Don't know if GW charges for shipping but hey at least a 3rd party guy made some money.
>>92739647That'll be 300k plus shipping plus luxury tax plus carbon tax plus gas guzzler tax plus tip
>>92739636It would be funny if it wasn't so grim.
>>92739589>If it's common and easy to to then the characters would not really mention itPeople still talk about their wisdom teeth removed or getting a haircut/change of style or how embarrassing they have been in middle-school or whatever. I don't think that's a compelling argument.
>>92739589>>92739452>>92739660Nevermind, I found it. Its this one sentence that you're making a fuss over?
>>92739221>so broadsidesIn Retaliation, especially after the nerf, almost certainly notAlso - based on your list that has twice as many spotting units than shooty units, you're currently going to be trying to play the game with 2 trading pieces, both of which are (1) Tau and (2) want to get within 6".

>>92739636why hasnt this translated into 40k at all? the britbongs writers seem more interested into putting tyrone and american african slave songs into 40k
>>92739727Market size. Optics.
Man fuck these GW paint pots. Is there even any chance of Citadel moving to dropper bottles like everyone else? Even when you apply stuff directly from the bottle, most of the stuff just dries up around the lid.
>>92739221Is this a shopping list or stuff you already have? The new combat patrol with the breacherfish, coldstar commander, and pathfinders allegedly comes with the killteam upgrade sprue for the pathfinders.
>>92739739the local shill will say its a lie, but they want your paints to dry
>>92739727County Tyrone? Why would there be Irish and Northern Irish songs in 40k?
>>92739739thanks doc
>>92738960>If they don't care why should I?If you stop caring about a hobby you've done for years because some faggot tells you not to, then you're just bitch made and you deserve to get bullied out of all your hobbies.I'm never stopping 40k out of sheer spite and for the fact that 40k is what I make it be, not what some random cunt on an iranian jewelry forum or some stuck up GW suit with a stick up his ass says about it.
>>92739756Care to extrapolate?
>>92739739Buy dropper bottles yourself and put the paint into them.
>>92739245>Also don't bother with the Compendium Tau team it sucks ballsThe stealth suits could've been so good if their order flip ploy didn't cost a cp AND an ap every time.
>>92739739>Daily Dose ColorsThanks Doc
>>92739765Extrapolate it how? Anon said that they were interested in putting songs from Tyrone in 40K? I don't get why any writer would be interested in that, I don't even think there is any real Celtic influenced faction in the lore, except Eldar to a miniscule extent.

Is there a canon reason why Leilith faffs around on the battlefield in her undies instead of putting some sensible armor on, or is it just that way purely for coomer purposes?
>>92739831ok bye
>>92739275>Why do people keep saying GW is nuking FW shitBecause GW is blatantly and obviously separating both of these divisions.HH is more resin than fucking plastic at this point, GW only made those new tactical marine kits in plastic because it is easier, cheaper and faster to make plastic sprues in bulk. And rest of the shit is resin because they know it wont sell as much, resin is much cheaper the produce and use.Also nevermind the dreadnought kits and shit.GW specifically went out of their way to kill all levis, deredeos and contemptors in 40k, they are legends only.They did same for all of the other FW resin shit.GW doesn't want you buying 1 army that you'll then use for 2 or 3 systems.No, they want you to buy a different army for every game/setting you play.
>>92739502>>92739514>>92739572>>92739589>>92739660>>92739682>>92739685No, this is fucking stupid and anyone defending it is retarded. It's modern day politics shoved into a setting 40,000 years divorced from it. In an age that is explicitly regressive and intolerant, conservative, and hyper religious. It's dumb to say "hurr it's only one line", It's dumb shit that shouldn't be in the setting. The politics are completely insane and everyone who agrees with trans rights shit delusional and insane. The assumption that it's inevitably going to be normalized in the future is a big assumption. Pro trans shit is bad no matter where it's inserted or to what degree.
>>92739831There's literally no justification for this kind of caterwauling and complaining. If something makes you unhappy, just stop engaging with it. No one else cares how unhappy you are with the game and your complaining just outs you as a mouthy, loud attention-seeking whore.

>>92739878>In an age that is explicitly regressive and intolerant, conservative, and hyper religiousThen why are you attributing it regression and intolerance, conservatism and hyper religious values that align with contemporary examples of that? What was okay in ancient chinkland/nippon wouldn't fly in ancient middle east and vice versa.

>>92739743>allegedlyIt does! You can see it on the store page! Since each box comes with all the bits you need to build a Breacher Team OR a Strike Team, you can also convert the Pathfinders into one of those. You don't need to buy extra shoulder plates from recasters, or anything! This is especially useful if you purchase 2 or 3 Combat Patrol boxes, but don't want to use 3 Pathfinder squads.

>>92739913Because by its nature it wouldn't be bigoted against people who fall outside the norm. People have been beat to death in setting for being too pale and spooked people. A lot of worlds are all but feudal. Sexual permissiveness has existed in many cultures and there have been periods of regression where conservatism arises, and that coincides with more restrictive sexual culture. Before victorian england there was a shit ton of sexual deviancy going on. I could see trans stuff only being a thing in the context of decadent rich nobles, but couching it in modern speak like "transitioned" is immersion breaking. At least make some in universe terminology.

>>92739989>I saw a Tyranid player dominating a Necron player at the local GW.Okay but who was winning the game?
>>92739839No, keep them like that. You now have a biophagus' percect lore about them all having to take their "daily dose" as to appease the star gods. Said pills could be tyranid eggs that essentially allow the cult members to be under control of the patriarch and be genetically modified to fulfill their purpose to the cult's needs.

>>92739845In the original codex she's a gladiatorial fighter, and her lack of armour is a taunt to the opponent, which carries over into the battlefield.
>>92738960How does any of that affect you personally
>>92739986>brave transgirlsBut they're not "trans" anon, because its the future and the Imperium has legit great biological tech, they can create super-soldiers and extend the human lifespan hundreds of years, so you can probably just take some treatment and it re-writes your genes so that you just become the opposite gender completely over time, on a cellular level. If there's one thing the Imperium is really good at, its fucking with human biology.
>>92740012>>92740019No, I don't think it should be in there at all, but as I already explained it's a commonly used term associated in the modern day with a specific political movement, and using a different term would make it less explicitly political. You can have stories where a man turns into a woman that aren't associated with modern day politics if framed the right way. But at the end of the day these people have retarded ideas that I don't want to see in the setting.
>>92740040Try Warlord Purple by Vallejo in the game color range. It’s the same as the old GW warlock purple. Use squid pink to highlight it, it used to be Tentacle Pink by GW.

>>92739759I stop caring because the thing I used to like sucks now. Warhammer 40k is a setting, the setting matters because it's what gives context to what I'm doing when I'm playing. Take away 40k's setting and what do you have? If the game is boring and the setting is ruined then why am I playing? I enjoy painting but I don't feel the same love for it when the lore behind my guys is butchered. The lore provides context that makes the activity more meaningful.

>>92740019it's a modern word with modern connotations for modern morals40k doesn't even have cigarettes, coffee or "fuck", it has lho sticks, recaff and fragmost imperial citizens are so poor that the idea of aesthetic surgery being accessible to them is retarded, let alone aesthetic surgery to treat mental illness, let alone aesthetic surgery for mental illness with welfareand if it's something done by a wealthy upper class it shouldn't be thrown around casually like that or without being underlined as a creepy act of vanity like most modern aesthetic surgery already is, because warhammer should be satirical like that for anything concerning the terrible inequality in its citizens reskinning is the term I'm proposing
>>92740124Got ya. I use mine with an off grey base coat. Maybe try mixing the two for somewhere in between for the thick highlight?
>>92740121KEK. Bring the Homunculus, this anon lays dead
>>92740054That's literally not truehttps://archive.is/wip/kWL0vMuhammad at #1, then the first variant spelling ('Mohammed') at #45, the second variant ('Mohammad') at #47, and no other variants in the top 100.
>>92740121>>92740136I guess dodging your dick is like dodging the Mandrakes' attacks in KillTeam and uses inverted dice rolls.
>>92740118wtf is that a horse man
>>92740146>Muhammad at #1Oh thank God, it's only kind of true, big sigh of relief
>>92740105Perhaps, but think about the weaponry - In game terms were used to character miniatures getting killed, and playing them again in other games. Back in the 2nd ed. days, a lot of people didn't like using characters for that reason, or created their own and played every game like a campaign - death was death. Most battlefield weapons in 40k would either rip someone apart or turn them to vapour, even with armour. It's still an arrogant taunt.
>>92740156>I'm only kind of gullible!lmao retard
Rolled 2, 1, 5, 3, 1, 5 = 17 (6d9)>>92740143Rolling for hellraiser fetish. 3+ and the homunculus is impregnated as well
>>92740163Anon...
>>92740146now do the immigrant names and their baby names
>>92740170wat?
>>92740140well said
>>92740118inquisitors aren't normal citizens
>>92740164Good job anon. You now have 4 babies
>>92740151An inquisitor who decided he'd be scarier if he surgically altered his appearance to look like a horse. Huge asshole.
>>92740141That's what I was thinking of as well. Still trying to do the basecoats with what little time I have.
>>92740169Don't you fucking 'Anon...' me, you spacker, I'm not the one of us that uncritically accepts every image macro he sees that confirms his pre-formed worldview>buh-buh-buh Muhammad is stil-Yeah, illiterate gutter rats only ever learned one name, big shock, Whites are still 80% of all births in the country, and even then nonwhites still have shit-high infant mortality because they're all inbred and/or too retarded to take their daemonspawn to a doctor when it gets sick
>>92740072>you can probably just take some treatment and it re-writes your genes so that you just become the opposite gender completely over time, on a cellular level.No, they can't, or the ecclesiarchy wouldn't take girls from the schola progenium to make the sororitas and simply gender swap elite soldiersand the marines wouldn't take only boy aspirants but any aspirants, girls included and gender swap the ones that pass the testif such tech is available, it's reserved for extremely high and niche echelons of only some societies in the imperium
>>92740118That's just a chaos beastman larping as someone he knows he'll never be.

>>92740197Good so far. Time is tough.
>>92740140>>92740200Well, maybe this Verity person was rich? Its a single sentence, with no other details given. Maybe they belong to a Rogue Trader house or crew and are just slightly weird at the best of times. We don't know, because its literally one single line.
>>92740197Looking a bit sunburned there on the right

>>92740220>Well, maybeThe author said it's "a normal imperial citizen" in a post asking about itit's just one line, but it's a blatant and indefensible one line
>>92740236The same anon also impregnated Lelith with 1 baby. He's a slaaneshi so you should hide your sisters of battle before they become part of his harem...
>>92738960Dios mío, escribió una novela completa para explicar lo mucho que no le importa.
Three men are sitting in a cell in the Securitate Headquarters at the Inquisition Compound.The first asks the second why he has been imprisoned, who replies: "Because I criticized Carolus Torquatus."The first man responds: "But I am here because I spoke out in favor of Carolus Torquatus!"They turn to the third man who has been sitting quietly in the back, and ask him why he is in jail.He answers: "I am Carolus Torquatus."
>>92740253He didn't. He rolled a 5 to impregnate but had rolled a 1 to "hit". Meaning his dick swinged a critical miss and simply impregnated some random passerby
>>92740237Not feeling the fleshmetal aesthetic on the ork here is well integrated, it's an artwork, the artist shouldn't have felt limited to stick to the miniature bits 1:1 but an obliterator-virus infected ork could be an interesting concept to explore considering the unconventional approach to technology orks have
>>92740227That's Vallejo Tan & Skin Wash, I was going to apply a pale skin over it but stopped doing so as I'll strip the paint from those ones.
>>92740267It was the number of attacks with his penis, like a flamer. If you look a bit above that you see the context of why he used his penis.
"Tyrant Matteus, is it true that you collect jokes about yourself?""Yes.""And how many have you collected so far?""Three and a half labour camps."
>>92739483Bless you. I'll be doing some Squats/Votann versus his Tau this weekend.
>>92740272Considering the lack of orky bits on the armour, it seems more like an edit with the ork head & a skin colour swap.
>>92739912I did this and he admired my models and dedication
>>92738960I see Toughness 4 woman and I say "AWOOGA", but that's because I am a degenerate that should be purged. I'd feel marginalized but there's an entire hermaphroditic god/dess in the setting that Eldar birthed out of a galactic orgy, so, eh.
Is there a limit on C'tan in a Necron army, like you can only 'control' one shard, or is it like Chaos Knights or Imperial Guard tankspam and you can just line up Transcendant C'tan, Nightbrapper, Desneeder and Void Dagon in a line and go to town?
>>92740266>securitateIs this an edit of a romanian joke about their communist-era secret police?
>>92740313You can only have one of each epic hero, but can have as many epic heroes as you want
>>92740281Bad. The penis is a melee weapon, not a liquifier gun.I mean, after being revived by the Haemunculus, now it shall be one
>>92740289thats pretty cool, itd be funny if yall had rail gun duels.. actually can pathfinders still take rail rifles?
>>92738960mucho texto, but pic is irredeemable
>>92740327yeah, just updated to 40K nomenclature. Found a thread of old Soviet jokes that have been converted to Imperial jokeson some random forum:>"My wife has been going to cooking school for three years.">"She must really cook well by now!">"No, so far they've only got to the bit about the words and deeds of Saint Sebastian Thor."
>>92740330I see. Does the Trans C'tan count as a single ebic hero or can it be used to proxy necron shards like The Spiral Flame or the Burning Man or the Red Eyed One?
>>92740333The penis itself is a melee weapon but the cumming is a torrent weapon. It gets more or less rolls depending on if the opponent is the user's type or not; women and dark eldar torture are high up there for anon it seems...
>A soldier in the local militia regiment is told that they will have to fire a 21-gun salute when Imperial Governor Rictus Stercus arrives in Apamea.>He asks, "What if we get him on the first shot, can we just stop then?"

>>92740371>that footBaller
>>92740133>How's the value of the set looking?The points per dollar value sucks compared to many other armies, but that's just the state Tau's in right now. As far as combat patrols in general go (in terms of building an army, not actually playing combat patrol), it's excellent. Every unit is a staple of a typical Tau army. The only weak part is the pathfinder team, which can easily be resold on ebay with the killteam sprue for $40. Hell, the killteam sprue itself resales for more than the ethereal from the last combat patrol does.>>92740030You just walk in on the first Saturday of every month, ask for the free mini, then walk out after they hand it to you. Sometimes it's in a little tiny box, sometimes the redshirt was too lazy to box them and just hands you the sprue and a base.
>>92740395Thats fucking stupid. Why isn't their points limits on characters on shit these days, eg, "you can't spend more than 25% of your total points on characters" and "at least 50% of your points must be spent on troops selections"?
>>9274041024"?
>>92740419Marines are not very smart, but they make up for it with their enthusiasm
>>92740426Thanks, hopefully June's is good.
>Tau have some strong mechanics>Day 1 FAQ, big points bumps, rules changes>Necrons have strong mechanics>Oh we can't change that the codex is too new teehee :)
>>92740426>The points per dollar value sucksWhy does everyone keep harping on this metric? If two sets cost $60 each it doesn't matter which one has more points of models. If anything the amount of plastic you get for that much money should be more of your concern. Character models are definitely more "points per dollar" but are definitely a rip off for what you pay for them.
>>92740439>September was nids (hormagaunt)>October was space marines (sterngard)>November was AoS freeguildsman>December was a Legions Imperialis (rhino)>January was an AoS beastman>Februrary was AoS cryptguard>March was nids (neurogaunt)>April was space marines (deathwing knight)>May was AoS freeguildsman>June will be ???Let's hope we're lucky and it's not more AoS shit
>>92739912I've had sex with multiple women in a room like that and even met my wife with all that. Just don't date normie women, I've never understood why other nerd guys don't understand this. If even nerd women reject you then it probably has more to do with you being ugly and or having personality issues vs your actual hobbies.
>>92740481Not only that - but if a box is good points/dollar but also dogshit terrible, the box is bad.
>>92740477You gotta stop anon, you have an addiction. At least wait until page 7
>>92740481>the amount of plastic you get for that much money should be more of your concern.Only if you're approaching it as models to paint instead of as a game to play.
>>92740427To be fair GW is only doing this to clear out their inventory of unbought old as fuck Ctan models that no one bothered with before. Kind of like how they made Tetras good with Tau then rug pulled and discontinued them once they cleared out their stock.
>>92740427That's not very shrimple of you
Rolled 3 (1d6)>>92740534I roll a number of attacks to cum in the shrimp lady

Any way to quickly make some cobblestone texture for my terrain mat?
>>92740577Fair enough, I could go for one of them spooky ghosts or lizard dudes.
>>92740582DIYing a greenstuff texture roller shouldn't be too challenging. If you or a friend has a 3d printer you could just print one.
>>92740545Extremely based roll
What's a decent terrain layout for a combat patrol game? I'm still learning the rules and got some spare cardboard boxes to cut into L shaped wall and covers.
>>92740702
>>92740702One ruin in each board quarter. Some kind of large structure in the center to break up sightlines from deployment zones. That's pretty much the minimum as a rule. A couple crates, forests, craters, or barricades on the sides help spruce things up a bit more.
>>92738173>What army initially drew you into the Warhammer 40,000 universe?
Better late than never I guess, Janny-san
>>92740419It could be said all authority extends from violence so he might be trying to sound deep. Also BT recruitment is nowhere near as… thorough? As other chapters. You don’t need to be clever, just be the meanest bastard to survive enough battles and show faith. Aren’t most of their recruits war orphans and random feudal worlder’s that they kidnap occasionally and straight up brainwash?
Should I post 3rd Edition codex art? I'm just going through them, cropping and saving them for my personal collection of images anyway.
I think I found a plot hole.The new lore that just dropped says that the effect of the Necron Pylons in the Pariah Nexus disrupts and shuts down Aeldari technology since its psychic in nature. It even ruins Spiritstones.How come the Shadow in the Warp doesn't do this? I have never read about Shadow in the Warp disabling Aeldari technology. In fact, Aeldari waystones continue to work as intended even under the Shadow.
>>92741033Why was the one thread not made by edgecoc deleted?
>>92741053Sure man if that’s what you want to do. The ambiance is appreciated.>>92738173>TQTau as a young lad. Also R.I.P tetras, you got what you fucking deserved.

>>92741061Shadow in the warp is static interference. Pylon just turn it off
>As was the case with the First War for Armageddon the Ordo Hereticus and Grey Knights purged the Human survivors of the campaign, for they had witnessed a Daemon Primarch itself. With reluctant approval, Grimnar doomed the tribal warriors of Fenris to liquidation.based inquisition keeping the furries in check
>>92741061the necron pylons strengthen the veil, the shadow in the warp is due to how powerful the hivemind is. one is without warp the other is very hard to use warp
>>92741067>zoomer marines trying to help an angry old grey knight boomer.>yough 1: ”Sir can you please put down the Gun?”>Angry old space wizard: Fuck you there was chaos there can be no witnesses!”>youth 2: “Sir Guilliman repealed that decades ago, do you want to sit on that bench over there to calm down?”
>>92741061They work on different ways. The Necron pylons strengthen the barrier between the warp and Realspace, preventing any connections between them and sometimes forcibly separating being that exist in both at once (such as souls and bodies).The shadow in the warp is essentially just warp static that drowns out any other signal because of thousands of subvocal chirps and calls being transmitted back and forth between synapse creatures and the rest of the hive.Both disrupt psychic signals into the warp, but in different ways.
>>92741094This is the most retarded thing I’ve seen today.
>>92741061it's the same difference between being in an empty void where noise can't travel and being in a room where there's so much noise you can't hear anything elsein both cases you're effectively rendered deaf, but they go at it in very different means
>>92740451>my tau can't face roll to victory. I have been slighted.I bet you had no problem back when tau had invincible battlesuits and Necrons were unplayable for an entire edition. Eat shit.
>>92741132>Inconsistent behavior is fine because its for a faction I don't like!Kill yourself
>>92741083It's okay. Not all tribes were killed. Grimnar got his revenge on the Imperium by forcing Roboute to kneel before him so that he would accept the Primaris.
>>92739739PRO TIP: the issue is caused by both the tongue and the lid hinge. snip off the lid at the hinge, clean out the lid and snip off the tongue. it will never bother you again.
>>92740416>flavourless c'tan spam listwhy do people do this?
>>92741216I dunno, it screams "don't play against me, I'm an irritating shit".
>>92741061The Shadow in the Warp is just a mass of smaller tyranids screaming at each other. Psykers can't navigate it because there's too much interference between them and the astronomicon. The Necron Pylons utilize a lower dimension to utterly smother the warp in a projected radius. I can't remember if it's from the Ghostwind or from another dimension, but yeah, that's what it does.
>>92741230>The Necron Pylons utilize a lower dimension to utterly smother the warp in a projected radius.

>>92741299the webway works just fine
>>92740977>I just want Mandrakes to be viableDo you not already play Dark Eldar? Because they are insanely good infiltrators, screeners, harassers, and deep strike secondary objective securers. You probably cannot win games without at least one or two units of them. They're not big damage dealers, but they're cheap as shit and expendable and are really good at what they do. Uniquely within the army even.

>>92741273Okay, how many fucking parallel dimensions does 40k canonically have now? We have anti-life dimensions and multiple subspace backroom corridors and flaying hellscapes and the shadow realm and the ghoul star oubliettes and secret hidden carcosa and whatever the fuck else random writers have put in books with minimal oversight. And somehow one of this shit is related to the fucking warp, the cornerstone of the setting.
>>92741543Someone linked a whole blog detailing the cosmology
>>92741543i've even heard that the entire setting of warhammer fantasy actually just exists as a planet or pocket of warp somewhere in 40k

>>92741635anon, not for nothing, but it's 40kglittle silly to get mad babies are posting in the baby's first wargame thread
Random question, but why was 6th Edition replaced with 7th Edition in just 2 years, even though GW released 19 Codexes and Supplements for 6th Edition in that time? I was on my break from 40K at that time, so I haven't a clue on what happened between late 4th/early 5th and 9th. Was it just really bad rules wise or something?
>>92741667Chapterhouse
>>92741658Yes, I care a lot about what YOU are doing anonRemember I'm always right around the corner, ready to destroy your slightly different looking figurines
>>92741674I dont know what that means anon.
>>92741686Short version: GW sued some people and lost, they rewrote the book on how they release units virtually overnight and rushed the next edition to ensure they had the maximum possible legal protections for their little blue spacemen.
>>92741667GW was kind of in "just changing shit for the sake of changing shit" panic mode around them. high level mismanagement, the late 4th / early 5th era saw the largest exodus of players ever (not a coincidence like 80% of all the other sci-fi and fantasy war games exploded in to existence around then), and a bunch of other BS.
>>92740133>>92740426They don't actually do this the redshirt at the local store told me they 'never got their shipment' with a weird look on his face those motherfuckers are scalping them.

>>92741699>>92741724Thanks anons, so is this were the name changes for a lot of stuff like "Aeldari" and "Drukhari" came from too?

>>92741799That was later if memory serves, but don't quote me on that. the whole chapterhouse debacle was a separate and somewhat later thing. people sometimes treat that as a cause when it was really a symptom. 40k was already in full implosion before that happened.
