Didn't the old thread get nuked because certain Tyranid fangirl went overboard with celebratory rites welcoming new edition?

Posting again for replies

So lads I recently got back into 40k after a decade of withdrawal from my resin addiction and have decided to start anew with a steel legion army.

I kicked it off right away by getting a couple of models to start with:
>Commisar Yarrick
>1 infantry sqaud
>1 heavy bolter unit
>1 lascannon unit
>1 Chimera
>and to top it off one commamder.

The focus of my army is that of mechanised infantry whilst trying to stay as loyal to the fluff imperal guard structure as possible.

My route of action was that of bulking out with chimeras and masses of infantry with a couple of leman russ executioners and rounding off my heavy weapons teams.

Am i doing it right or headed down a dreaded path of no return?

Hopefully a way to look at a datasheet and see how much a fucking tank costs, without needing to add up figures from eight different locations first.

tyranids should convert into gas giant/ice giant herbavores. the rocky planets are basically irrelevent in terms of mass. the ice giatns in particular, have everything that nids need.

there is almost zero reason for nids to invade rocky planets. they are so small.

Do you see who it's by? Yeah, alright then. It's shit.
"By Monte "The dickeater" Cook" is as big of a red flag as "Published by Ubisoft" and "Online Only" on a game's package.

He purposefully put Ivory Tower game design into 3rd edition D&D. He also made 3rd Edition D&D which damaged the hobby in a lot of ways.

Many won't forgive him for this. I generally look sideways at anything with his name on it.

"Great masters said spawns of hell must die, time to get to work" - Urk the mad kobold

Well, let's look at the Chainmail alignment chart and see what's what:

LAWFUL: Halflings, Dwarves, Gnomes, Heroes, Super Heroes, Wizards, Treants, Magic Weapons

NEUTRAL: Sprites, Pixies, Elves, Fairies, Lycanthropes, Giants, Rocs, Elementals, Chimeras

CHAOTIC: Goblins, Kobolds, Orcs, Anti-Heroes, Wizards, Wraiths, Wights, Lycanthropes, Ogres, True Trolls, Giants, Dragons, Basilisks

Given that, I think Centauri would be Neutral.

Listen carefully: I want you to find a landline telephone and dial 9–1–1.

And if that doesn't work because the stroke has made you numerically dyslexic, dial 1–1–9.

None. I doubt he's even a match for one normal space marine

Bleeding Edge IronMan would Curbstomp anything until tired.
Then the autopilot of the suit can probably still destruct anything the imperium throw at him.

>None. I doubt he's even a match for one normal space marine
Movie Ironman lifts cars like it's nothing, he also has weapons that obliterate tanks in a single hit. Pretty sure he can utterly devastate a single space marine. And this without counting Hulkbuster.

If we go by the comics, he can dual wield tanks and tank nukes.

Drowtales is going to be something other then shit for once?

Drows are winning for once?

I dropped that series because they were never winning. The demons were winning, the evil drow were winning, the maincast has yet to win *anything* they set out to do. The whole series is basically what was wrong with patreon before patreon; namely an excuse to milk a fanbase for money with special tiers of backer-ship and paywall porn.

Kiel still best drow-fu.
