Absolute newbie to 40k here.

Few friends are getting into it. I think I may check it out as well.

Armies I am interested in include Mech/Skitarii, Grey Knights and Necrons. Are these competative right now and what are their playstyles like?

Also I have an old blood angels army I got from a friend like 6 years ago. How do they play.

Should I wait to buy anything and just use blood angels until this whole fall of Cadia thing cools down?

You could make that out of 11 wraith models :^)

Yea Ive seen people using models like that, i got an old eldar power fist on my lord for a GoF

>>51596650
ADmittedly, Nemesor And Vargaurd Obyron would be the only two necron models Id actually buy and deal with in finecast. But for Orikan, you could mix together some parts from a Preatorian and warrior onto a Cryptek body, Warriors open hand arm to grasp the staff and clip the legs to bend, use the spines from the praetorians to make the tail and use a deathmark head and do some carving. Orikans normal model has a lot more stuff on it though so, I just hope he doesnt come with his arms already on his model...

If you want models on the cheap then see if you can find the Death masque sprues on Ebay, or find a friend to split the box with. It's how I kept costs down. You're SOL if you want Shadowseers/Solitaires though.

>optimizing
The optimum way is probably to not take many Harlequins at all. Honestly just play what you like. The Starweaver is a fine transport, though. Stuffing clowns in Raiders isn't worth the time.

Yeah, the game is good, especially if you like Total War. The reason why you see it rated so negatively on Steam though is because most of the races are locked behind fucking paywalls. Mark my words, Dawn of War 3 will end up being pretty good but since there's going to be a barebones army selection at launch it will catch a ton of flak. I like supporting vidya developers that make fun games but you and me are probably better off just pirating digital 40k stuff.

It's worth it for the $12, just be warned that greenskins, vampire counts, dwarves, and empire are the only playable factions with just the core game. There are a few free dlcs that add heros and brettonians come out for free later this month. Also, the bundle seems to imply that the dlc might be given out as well later in the month. As for mods, you MUST get Conquer Anywhere & Diplomatic Options and Defensive Wood Elves to get around some serious flaws.

See? I like this better than their super formation. All that really does for you is give you +1 to your cultists roll and shrouded first turn. And while shrouded turn one is awesome, that formation is super restrictive. You can still get the good bonuses in a CaD like this, and chosen as troops are so much better than marines.

But it needs the emperors finest crates to really shine.

>>51596921

Well, they DO say he's named Gerantius, which kinda implies he's super old. It's not so hard to imagine that geedubs wanted to fuck over anyone who likes him by setting up his rules in such a way that he dies of old age the moment the battle starts.

Also there's some superheavies out there with a basic-strength of D. Like the Reaver and Warlord titans.
>>
i was reading the farsight supplement and it explains how farsight using the dawn blade managed to develop his own style of close combat within a battlesuit, (hence his BS of 5) and it got me thinking that it would be awesome if there was a crisis suit option or some other design of suit similar size to crisis suit that could take close combat weapons and forego ranged ability in order to be taus only effective melee unit.

fluff wise it makes sense to say that they learnt from commander farsight the art of battlesuit combat or something, and functionally it makes sense because even melee armies have shooty units so it would make sense for a shooty army to have even a single melee unit. it would also break up some monotony regarding constant shooting rolls and give tau something to do in the assault phase other than using jetpacks.

i hate the way corporations behind developers force dlc business models but i think this game is an example of one that has enough in the game that paying $12 isnt even that bad, ive spent more on truly shit games that dont have dlc at all yet are still half-baked. also noone is obligating you to buy dlc.

So I have 1 Kataphron unit from the Eradication Cohort right now.
Should I put them together as Breachers or Destroyers? Obviously expanding to a War Convocation at some point but also planning to use them before that.
Should I rather make them Breachers and buy a second Breacher unit or Destroyers and buy a second Destroyer unit to go into Holy Requisitioner or Elimination Maniple, respectively?

7X Herald of Tzeentch, ML1

Allied Detachment (Chaos Space Marines; Word Bearers)
HQ
Sorcerer on palanquin, master level 3, spell familiar, bolt pistol, force sword

Troops
5x Chaos Space Marines
Rhino, death of kasyr lutein

Heavy Support
Fire Raptor, 2 reaper autocannon batteries, 4 balefire missiles

ALL the WC. Most going to getting a Bloodthirster out as well as more bodies, with the grimoire herald and Cursed Earth spell the herald unit get a 2++. Palanquin Sorc takes perils from the Kasyr rhino, 3HP in addition to the wounds from the palanquin it makes the sorcerer ridiculously survivable.
12 AP2 S9 T7 Ordnance, twin linked rapier laser batteries. I don't think there's an amount of armor on the board that can survive this at my point level aside from massed flyers which is honestly what I think I'll have the most problems with.

Building a fun fluffy tau list for casual games and want to include some alien units. Gnarlocs are out since I can't even find rules for them or models.

Want to start up playing 40k again.
However since my last army was nids and having to paint billions of gants burned me out, I require my next army to be low model count.

I see GW selling a thousands sun army that apparently did well in a tournament and it used very little models (also used that awesome magnus model).
My question is how viable are the thousand sons?

1. Fuck you and your copy of the LVO 2nd place winner.
2. Nice list.


Remove the heavy flamers on the wyverns and set them up as single model units. You have 4/5 (don't remember) elite slots. Use them.

Remove the autocannon team from the RCS, reduce the zombie squads to 15 models, remove the Chaos Space marines, and remove the Quad gun.

Use these points to exchange the Sorcerer for an ML3 Daemon Prince of Nurgle with wings, a squad of 10 cultists to fit the required troop choice, and invest more points into the Heralds of Tzeentch to up their warp charges.

....

Fuck that's a ridiculous amount of WC and artillery. Fuck you anon. Fuck your list.
>>
>>51597870
they are pretty shit but don't think abotu viability now anon. I mean it'll take you a couple months to buy and paint up an army, and then it's only maybe 3 months max till the next edition or end of 40k comes out. Still tohusand sons are more versatile because they fit into 30k (at leats Magnus and scarab termies do anyway).

Yes. FoC continued the story from the 13th Black Crusade campaign that was done years ago so Abbaddon unleashed his crusade and managed to win the land war while Cadians were forced to make a last stand in the remaining Hive City, the Imperium won the orbital war and reinforcements arrived to help the Cadians. Belisarus Cawl decided to use the Pylons in a last ditch effort agaisnt Abbaddon and it worked as the Eye shrunk for a while and Abby was forced to teleport his forces away from Cadia but the Pylons exploded due to the strain and the Eye is now expanding, after the pylons blew Abbaddon rammed his Blackstone Fortress, that was already crippled by the Phalanx, into Cadia thus exploding the planet.

Mobility and staying power. If your opponent can really smash through the zombies you have a problem. Most meta cannot though because they have lots of high strength low ap with few attacks.

Also, people make the mistake of multi-charging both zombie units. You can force them to do this by deploying both units at 2" coherency AMONGST one another.

Where did you get the heads?

If I was going to give an uneducated guess, they're aiming to make a bunch of big changes in the setting itself, while still keeping everyone's armies around as-is. To avoid the same kind of backlash as orruk/aelf/deathrattle/whateverthefuckdwarveswerecalled nonsense.

So you have cadia engulfed by the eye, but cadian forces themselves still galaxy-wide. Biel-tan fracturing and the ynnead eldar coming into existence, but the regular craftworlders and commorrites digging in their heels because they think they're crazy. I imagine whatever they do with the Fallen will still allow for loyal dark angels in green, and chaosy dark angels in black.

But who knows.

Goddamnit. The PYLONS DID NOT EXPLODE OR OVERLOAD. ABADDON SHUT DOWN THE PYLON NETWORK BY RAMMING THE PLANET WITH THE THREE MOON SIZED REMNANTS OF THE BLACKSTONE FORTRESS. WITH THE DAMAGE SUSTAINED BY HAVING THE PLANET CRACKED IN HALF, THE PYLONS SIMPLY CEASED WORKING.

For fucks sake, /tg/ what's your Pylon fetish coming from?
>>
>>51598945
For about a week and a half, everyone thought the pylons blew up and destroyed Cadia.

I did it /tg/ I out WAAC'D an eldar player. Last week I posted here asking how I could break the game with celestine. Well I did it, I used her with a knight crusader and trucked dozens of Lance shots in the name of the emperor. He fielded scatter bikes, wraith knight, wraith guard with D spam, all of it crashed on my forces, and with the emperors will my dice rolled true. Today I tasted the sweet salt of eldar tears via text msg and replied with ATSKNF quotation, needless to say my friends sourness knows no bounds. I became what I hated most, and I've never felt better. Long live grav spam, long live game breaking rules, long live the imperium of man.

Stabbed in the spine by a power sword. So a good injury, but he walked off into a teleport and didn't seem that affected by it. Stopped him fighting right at that moment, but no mention of it once he was back on his ship.

Minor annoyance. Back injuries don't bother marines due to the Back Carapace. He wanted to pay her back but he realized that he was running out of time and was surronded by tons of Cadians so he teleported way before the warp completely sealed up.

He ported to his throne room the Vengeful Spirit poured himself some wine and then ordered the Dark Admech and Warpsmith to move the Blackstone pieces towards Cadia. He then raised his wine cup to Cadia in salute to his vanquished enemy.

We played 2k for that game, will probably be 2k for the next game. He ended up destroying the crusader on the last turn with a wraith lord in combat. And all day I've been getting texts about deep striking fire dragons etc so he's gonna be gunnng for it if I field it again. I even got him to say it was way more op than a wk despite the fact it cost me 470 pts to field vs his 295 wk. We're good friends so I will probably field it again so he can destroy it, but I also just wanna be a total shit lord and field all infantry. He's tabled me too many times to be nice

Want to start purchasing infantry for my Guard "army" (which consists of 7 tanks at the moment)

But I'm desperately hoping they get new models as the decades old Cadian sprus just don't cut it anymore.

I'm well aware Cadia is gone but that Cadian uniform was standard around the galaxy and that Cadian soldiers have founded hundreds of worlds...

Is there a chance we'll get new Guard models?
>>
>>51599536
No one seems to remember (or care) but Corax and Khan aren't confirmed dead either.

And with the way things are happening so far, I wouldn't be surprised if Dante, Mephiston, and the Sanguinor exsanguinated themselves to revive Sanguinius.

You better field a shitload of Land Raiders for those Templars, though. Nothing better than a ton of dudes in gigantic fucking metal boxes.

And try the Castellans detachment with it and tell me how it plays and if respawning Raiders are worth it.

A friend of mine thinks it'll be Corax instead of Dorn since that would make an opening for having Raven Guard fight Emperor's Children.
Which would also give an opportunity to do a new Shrike and Fulgrim model, I suppose.

Gathering Storm 1.

Combines all Imperial factions.

Compulsory are 2 HQs and 4 Troops, from any Imperial codex, with unlimited troop slots and 6 slots for everything else. HQs are all generic HQs and all non-SM unique HQs except for Black Templars.

Special Rules let you re-roll your trait, gives you Hatred on everything (Zealot if you fill every unit slot) and, most importantly, makes your troop units respawn if you roll a 5+ when they get destroyed.

Good thing you own it, forgot to attach a screenshot, guess I can save myself that.

Note that the Transport respawn independently since they're separate units, meaning your Templars will have to walk once they die but on the other hand your transport won't have to wait for the infantry to bite the dust to come back. It's pretty disgusting with the new Coteaz that gives all infantry ObSec and he's a choice for the detachment.

Also take a look at the Ecchlesiarchy Relics in the book. You can take them in there and they have a few rather nice ones, most notably the power sword and pistol and the buffed Iron Halo if he is going to bring Deep Strike units.
>>
>>51599864
It is a good game tho. All GW games are good, AoS just had to axe fantasy so it could become relevant, which is why ppl Hate it. But I'd be willing to bet that AoS is currently more popular than fantasy was when it died, so get rekt

That's my point. I had trees from playing Wood Elves, and Sylvaneth got all the fun tricks I loved from Wood Elves like summoning and moving trees.

You can't, but you need to take between 2-4 HQs. It's a huge list to choose from so you could field something like Helbrecht + Coteaz + Chaplain and give the Chaplain one of the relics.

Coteaz + respawning Tempestus Scions is hilarious, however, since the unit goes into ongoing reserves and can deep strike again.

Yeah, shoulda mentioned that it needs 2 factions (which the Knight would fill but that's a shitload of points).

Could probably get away with substituting something. I presume you owe Greyfax, having Celestine, so just say she's either her, a generic 25 point Inquisitor to fill the second faction requirement or field her as femme Coteaz.

So I have a question about orbital strikes. They're barrage but don't have a minimum range, can they fire indirectly? I've had a couple games now where my CM was in a land raider and then in combat and didn't have an opportunity to call one down. I hate wasting them. Also can I call one down on a unit and then charge another one? Or do they follow basic shooting rules

>>
>>51600576
If you include allies you can combine them with harlequins for some real leadership bombing.

just replace the archon for a shadowseer with the mask of secrets, the key circumvents the no sharing transports rule and allows you use it to let the shadowseer deepstrike with the squad.

-3 leadership for everyone within 12", then pile on the psychic fuckery. You can go telepathy for shriek and terrify or phantasmy for mind mirror and laugh of sorrows. Mirror of minds does INFINITE wounds on a single model if you can reduce it to leadership 5.

Then, just to add insult to injury hit them with the hallucigenic grenades for a pinning test, take a wound for how much it's failed by.

Are there any leaks for the new eldar formations that are more clear. Going by the preorder bundles, I own everything needed to make the reborn warhost, soul bound vanguard, and ynneads net.

>>
>>51600776
given the WD picture from a while back, the preorder bundles, and the glossary, we can generally guess what the formations do.
Not having access to those tho, I can only give a rough off-the-top-of-my-head rundown here:
triumvirate. units in 12" of 2 are fearless, if all 3 are on the board, the army is fearless, and the models add +1 to their "if a nearby model dies" rules
the net of ynnead, one of each units bikes + warlock bikes: the entire formation comes in on one re-rollable reserve roll, and each unit enters from a different table edge, and if a unit dies or kills, the warlocks get an extra warp charge in their next psychic phase
the wraith-formation: re-roll 1's targeting units within 12" of the character, and a fear debuff
the one with avengers, wyches, and incubi: furious charge if in 3" of another, +1ws/bs if joined by either of the two named infantry, and they can soulburst if within 14" of a dead model instead of 7"
the wyches, harlequins, and guardians formation: if one unit is soul bursting, the entire formation can do the same action, if two or more units ar win the same combat, they gain hatred. if 3 or more, preferred enemy
