I dunno quite frankly.

I love the models but I can't find a way to play them competitively.

Giving them chimeras, let them take priests. Give them back stuff the stormtroopers had, like infiltrate and pistol/cww in additon to their hot-shots.

Personally, bare minimum, I'd buff their Ld and WS by 1 just to distinguish them from veterans. Considering they're Schola Progenium, having guard-tier leadership rather than Commissar/Sororitas-tier seems wrong. They need buffing in close combat a bit purely because of their short ranged weapons.

>>52367358
Run them in the guard codex.
Reduce their points cost so they're not just really expensive suicide veterans and you can take a decent number of them.
Give them rifles, pistols, frag and krak grenades base equipment.

>>52367393
>>52367397
This really. They don't warrant a seperate codex.

Give AM a way of taking them as troops via a leader upgrade or something so you can get ObSec maybe.

>>52367441

>>52367388

The tempestor not being able to take anything other than pistols, in a unit that utterly sucks in melee, upsets me no end.

Transports and flyers, make Transuranic Arquebus 5pts cheaper for those who want to actually use them for some reason.

Other than that the Codices are pretty great, honestly, at least from my experience playing them.

I think I have a pretty good hold on the rules and i dont really care about winning but sometimes my opponent will tell me how a rule works and rather than tell him the correct rulling I'll go with it and abuse his rulling the rest of the game.

After the game he finds out we've been playing it wrong and the only one he can blame for this mistake is himself.

Thoughts on this? I know Cawl is a bit OP for 1k but these are all the admech I've got so I'm gonna keep him in until I get some more units to fill those 200 points, then bump him back to a 1.85k army. Plus I just "finished" painting him and I'm proud of how he turned out.

>>52367479
Flying stuff.

It's kinda dumb they're really skinny and fragile, since being a pilot really requires you to be resistant to high G forces. Really you'd want your pilots to be really short and squat, with thick neck muscles and as compact a circulatory system as possible.

I know they evolved to be gliders, but Tau can genetically engineer can't they? As it is, fire and earth caste would make better fighter pilots by far.

>>52367358
Make them proper spec ops. Let them take 2 man sniper teams with a .50 style weapon that can pop transports/light vehicles. have their heavy support be a laser paint type thing where they paint a target in the shooting phase and if the shooting model can still see LOS on its target on the next shooting phase then it gets hit by the airstrike etc.

I'd even let them lay mines or bobbytrap terrain

take the cog manipulator off your onager. the dominus can heal it and nobody's gonna want to get in melee with it anyway. use the points for refractor fields.
I would get Moar vanguard ASAP and more dunecrawler. try out dragoons if you can afford them.

it's a dirty move bringing in Cawl at 1k points, he's really tough.

>>52367565
Personally, I wouldn't bother with rangers, especially with transqbuses.

Vanguard are just functionally better, but really I think the big thing you're missing is something fighty that can rescue your other units if they get caught in melee.

Vanguard aren't the worst in close combat but they're not really going to survive against dedicated melee units.

>>52367602

It's the real thread, the other one is troll.

It's just slightly hard to tell because OP here made a Trump reference and so is also a troll, just a more general one rather than a targeted at causing 40k shitposting one.

Anyhow ask away, I have like 11,000 points worth of Necron models.

>>52367629
To your point; you don't even have to go against the narrative, if you're perceived as drawing attention away from "their struggle" (IE sorority helps charity, BLM bitches about it) then they get pissy; there's the post modernism, they think that there's some sort of "warfare" between groups of people. They use war related terms a lot too, like "ally".

>>52367633
Spyder + scarabs is good for tarpitting.

You've got a good model count (for a Cron army) for a 1000pts game, so you don't neccesarily need more immortals for that reason.

Lychguard can get really expensive very quickly, but they can be a very hard unit to kill.

>>52367659
just roll them back into the guard dex to make an option besides blobs or a million tanks.

>>52367388
>fire
>not deliciously THICC earth caste
What a fag

>>52367965
As a counterpoint, the Warp mingles with reality heavily during proper Daemonic incursions, so maybe the Daemons could see them through their interactions with the passive Warp-energy surrounding them, dulling their senses to the details but giving them enough to go off?

>>52367922
They don't really have a brawler unit, everything is hit-and-run glasscannons. Ruststalkers are their deadliest melee units, but lack the means to reliably get their due to not having Infiltrate, which immediately makes Infiltrators better. Dragoon squads are also decent and can glance mane vehicles to death. Even Electro-Priests are good when it comes to fighting, but will just never make it there.
Breachers can also make for decent melee units when used in the Holy Requisitioner due to Zealot and Counter-Attack.

>>52367961
Looks good, anon, no need to be ashamed. Just needs some more highlights, as you said, like the glowy bits and some more colors on the axe, but I've seen far worse.

>>52367965
Daemons have both Warp-sight and "regular" sight (as long as the Daemon in question has eyes, at any rate). So yes, it could see the Necron, but it can ONLY see it with its "normal" vision, meaning it loses one of its primary sensory advantages.

It's that time again.

Come up with a formation that makes (but doesn't break)the weaker/lesser used units in your codex stronger/more appealing to take.

True enough, though if you want to use them in Trukks you're better off going with Slugga Boyz. One turn to maneuver get them there as fast as possible and make sure the trukk doesn't explode, the next to charge out and murderize the unit with the survivors.

/r/ing that pic of a Tau battlesuit pilot with her arms and legs stuck in the suit with the front hatch open if anyone has it.

>>52368042
I'm not entirely sure that's true, though, because most of the time Daemons don't seem to create other organs that work even remotely like they should, but as more of a pseudocosmetic manifestation.

I might be completely wrong, though, but there's some lore of manifested Daemons being completely unable to see the Exorcists or Blanks, so it seems GW has no idea what it's doing with the nitty-gritty details of the Daemonic (which really isn't a surprise.)

>Did any of you have trouble making your parents accept your 40k lifestyle when you were younger?
Can't speak for the rest of anons, but my parents didn't mind at all (aside from reminding me to spend my money wisely every now and then).

Of course, my three of my closest friends (all my age or younger and two living on the same block as myself), got into the 40k lifestyle around the same time.

I wasn't even the first (or most heavily infested) in my circle of friends either. The one who was the most invested ended up getting both Space Marines and Nids No idea if he still has them, haven't talked in awhile. The other two became Tau players, while I picked Orks because, well, they looked fun.

For perspective, we got into 40k in the last couple years of 3rd Edition's reign, and most Ork specialist models were all clunky metal ones.

>>52367286
Blood Angels
No, cheats make Sanguinius sad

>>52368333
Personally, I think letting their sergeants give orders would be both fluffy and make the unit sufficiently dangerous to justify their near-MEQ points cost.

They're supposed to be trained to operate more independantly than regular guard, and in terms of crunch, they're a deep striking unit, trying to deep strike multiple units within 12" of each other so you can use orders is a recipe for disaster.

>>52367358
Put them back under Departmento Munitorum, roll them into the IG codex and make some formation that lets you make stormie armies.

Why would this be an issue? They are models. It's normal for kids to build and paint models.

The issue is when you're an oldfag, and you're trying to justify this hobby to normal adults. In particular, women. They just don't understand this shit.

>>52368367
That would make all scion sergeants into mini-bastonnes, which I would totally approve of.

He even had carapace and a hotshot, so he may as well have been a stormtrooper.

>>52368194
I only got into 40k after I moved out and got a job. Mom thinks it's a bit childish and a waste of my money but likes that I paint the models myself, and dad just thinks that giant super soldiers who worship the devil and summon daemons is fucking cool.

Do you ever use houserules, homebrew codexes, or other fan stuff in your games?

>>52368402
My bud is making his homebrew chapter a supplement, mostly with different characters, but theres a few new special rules that are the Chapter Tactics for his chapter. It's pretty cool.

I'm slowly working my way into making one for my Kabal.

>>52368402
Mostly mission stuff, as trying to use custom stuff is more of a headache than it's worth usually.

>>52368401
Depends on how conservative christian you're talking, since most people are pretty chill about the whole thing.

I'd guess if your parents were hardcore fundamentalist types you'd be screwed though.

I mean that'd only be a problem with Khorne or Slannesh. Tzeentch and Nurgle look cartoony enough to not be a big deal.

>>52368467
With Nurgle you could get away with just saying that most of them are just zombies, and in essence they are anyway. Tzeentch to an outside observer would just look like weird-ass aliens with bird and fire motifs unless you run Magnus.

>>52368787
Yeah, that's the one I've been thinking about.

Scary thing is, with the Ork's "the world acts according to OUR rules", those Blood Axes likely WOULD end up getting better diggas in the process.

And my brain's already come up with a third of the names & characters for a story because of that perverted anons idea! Not sure who's more heretical, the anon who came up with it, or me for getting it stuck in my head and thinking of a story for it...

>>52368862
Malefic with horrors is pure cancer.

Malefic with nurgle daemons ought to be fun, make sure you use a DP to summon so that you only peril on double 6's.

Are you gonna use a CAD or a formation?

>>52368862
Eh, summoning people isn't hard, it's keeping the psykers alive that is. They get perils on any double so all those dice you're chucking are gonna turn your psyker into paste.
For an optimal build, people bring in tzeentch daemon to summon reinforcements, but if you're doing a fluffy list you might as well just roll with two sorcerers and Typhus. But dont worry, GW is coming out with new Death Guard stuff so there should be a Mortation Daemon Prince.

CAD, this will be a list that will only see use against friends, but I'm facing tau, GSC and IG who all outnumber me 3 times over.

>>52368919
Well the current plan is to use a Sorc on a palanquin (4 wounds), aim for 2/4 on the warlord trait (IWND or +1 wound) and take a spell familiar to reroll failed tests.

Even if I get doubles, so long as I pass, I should get 5 turns of free Plaguebearers.

200 points for that chode is a fucking lot though.

>>52368934

Everything that didn't have a specific model for itother than veterans were canned in the new codex after fifth edition. Penal legions, chenkov, al'rahem, mogul khamir, I think harker, bastonne,... all gone in the wind, like so much chaff.

They do, there's minor xenos races that worship Chaos, but Chaos is mainly focused on humanity as it's gateway to devouring the material universe.

>>52368983
200 points for 5 free units of Plaguebearers is still less than you'd pay for the Plaguebearers.

>>52368892
2 vet squads will fill in the slot as well
also look into formations and the IG decurion to build into a proper army.
you also have to consider what kind of IG army you want
1. Armoured: tanks, artillery, limited infantry for obsec and you could even go FW armoured brigaide for obsec leman russ tanks since they use same models
2. Flying circus: valks, vendettas, vultures and scion squads, can be done using the formations available for MT and IG
3. Mech: Vets in transports with tank/infantry backup. Balanced and may include one or two flyers for assistance
4. Blob guard: conscripts and infantry squads with priests/commissars to annoy small elite armies. May take artillery for support

If I missed a guard play style just add it on

>>52368969
Orks cant be from any of the Gods except very rarely from Nurgle, and only by force

>>52368955
They can, the other species typically have more experience and therefore training/methods to deal with Chaos corruption or some innate defenses like the Orks being too stupid or the Tau having smaller souls. Necrons and Tyranids can't though, due to Necrons flat-out not having souls and the shadow in the Warp caused hy the Tyranid hivemind.

>>52368999
Harker is still around.

>>52368983
DP might be better; he'll have a 2+ jink, 4 wounds, T5 plus whatever bonuses he gets from DG rules.

When casting malefic powers daemons only perils on double 6's.

I guess the tradeoff would be that you'll be spending around 300 points for the guy, but he'll make his points back in what he can kill as well as what he can summon.

The daemon engines will soak up some fire but even then they're not invincible, the oblits and termies will appear behind enemy lines and divert more attention, but all that takes time, and if something snipes my Sorc (hiding in the cultist squad) the whole plan is fucked.

With Death Guard traitor legion rules you shouldn't even need Plague marines; might as well proxy yours as regulars; they're cheaper and do pretty much the same job with most of the same stuff.

Unless you really want to do 7 man units with 2 specials; I'd do 2 10 man CSM with 1 plasma and 1 autcannon; you get VoTLW for free on anyone who can take it, and anyone that has it gets relentless.

>>52369230

>>52369252

It always seemed odd to me to run a mono build guard army when you codex is built around each element working together to support eachother.

>>52369230
You might want to drop the Daemon Engines and toss in havocs with autocannons and maybe one unit with lascannons, drop the cultists too

I'm taking Plague Marines instead of the cheaper CSM with MoN, because that's the REAL Death Guard unit.

If you know you've made the wrong choices with your army list and are still proud of your choices, then just do whatever you like.

>>52369283
>(I do not have autism)

But you do

Anons, what should I take in my 1500 list? 3 units of Slugga Boyz in trukks, 3 units of Shoota Boyz in trukks, or 2 units of slugga or shoota boyz in trukks with a decently sized Stormboy Mob?

>>52369310
Shieeet that's a lot of boyz

>>52369319

You should take what you feel are the orkiest units.

>>52369276
It could work
though I'm not too sure on how to use guard platoons since I'm a d-99 player which restricts my playstyle to flying circus, though armoured and mech are pretty easy to work through.
I can only give you several tips on how to use certain units
Heavy weapons teams: always lascannon or autocannon. Everything else is a waste of points
Leman russ tanks: Run a punisher tank with pask and an executioner with extra plasma sponsons. If you need another tank take it separately and use a standard battle tank or a demolisher for S10 Ap1.
3. Infantry squads, don't run heavy weapons in infantry squads and special weapons aren't usually worth it outside of flamers/grenade launchers (use the S3 Ap6 blast)
4. For Emps wrath wyverns are a better option though a basilisk can also work, take a hydra if your opponent is running skimmer/flyer/jetbike (skyfire hits jetbikes at full bs right?) spam and you want to remove them.
5. Vets are a good source of special weapons like melta/plasma, fuck them in a chimera and send them to town
6. A vendetta or 2 wouldn't be too bad. You can magnetise and run them as valks or vendettas. Vendettas are a great source of flying lascannons and take a squad of scions in them or a special weapons team
7. Special weapons teams need transports, otherwise don't even use them
if you have any other questions I'll try my best to answer them

The Forgefiend I would consider losing due to the price, it's mainly in there to instant-death battlesuits. Is the Maulerfiend really terrible for it's points?

>>52369281
Lascannon Havocs? Well I suppose they'd do a better job of killing tanks than the Forgefiend

fucking streetsign captchas

>>52369365
Lashavocs with the DG rules will wreck things really easily and take a lot of punishment.

>>52369373
Shit, they don't take Marks anymore, they have Daemon of Nurgle instead.

I geuss nothing then, bugger.

>>52369306
How so? I know what the formation is, but how do Basilisks benefit more?

>>52369331
No joke I was going to build a D-99 regiment but when it was published that thematic armies get bonuses, plus a looming new edition I moved to traditional guard. I know the basics of guard and how to equip them, every squad has a grenade launcher and attaching heavy weapons is bad.

I was going to build 2 Battle tanks and a demolisher for my armored support as they're heavy hitters and the infantry platoons can deal with the infantry with all their lasguns and autocannons.

Okay you fucks get ready for a GGA batrep. Was disappointed because of Adepticon (well besides a talk with a nice woman who had no panties or bra under her dress) so we got shit together for a 8000 Pt Apocalypse game. Chaos got first turn and I'll mainly be just dumping instead of text.

Tyrone plz go

>>52369395
Well, infantry is DG themed, so I geuss it couldn't hurt to try. Last questions for anyone willing to weigh in then before I disappear in shame to rewrite this shit from the ground up

Heldrake, yay or nay?
Maulerfiend, really so terrible a choice vs. Havocs/Oblits?
2 Oblits or 3?

If no replies, thanks to all for the advice

Ole killsaw here has killed a couple HQs in a challenge, plus he looks breddy gud

>>52369444
Heldrake yay, use the baleflamer

Maulerfiend is kinda eh; it needs lots of support

3 Oblits is nice

How opposed would /tg/ be to a T-Son list summoning Tzaangors in place of Daemon unit of choice?

I like to imagine an Exalted Sorcerer is just sweeping his towers courtyard with hurricane force winds and the Tzaan just tumble into the battle below

>>52369431
Wyverns already have twinlinked and ignores cover, so they don't really need the formation. Basilisks on the over hand love those benefits, as it makes them much stronger.

>>52369106
Plague marines are a waste of points since traitor legions came out, their only advantages over regular chaos dudes are the blight grenades and poison knives. And those don't justify their point cost.
That being said I have high hopes for the new Death Guard releases fixing this somehow
Just use their models as MoN chaos marines

I'd probably remove the forgefiend and the terminators as well
Adding a third Obliterator might be a good idea


>>52369154
If you wanna run a daemon prince you might consider an allied detachment of chaos daemon, in my opinion their prince options are the better ones, just use 2 nurglings as troop choice and you're good to go

I love this shot and i will continue in next thread as well. But Chaos was spamming the shit out of pyschic powers and managed to nuke my fucktard ally's Chimera and Taurox. He triggered my autism /tg/ he brought veterans with only lasguns.

Not really, I was in my own place at the time and they like the fact I put together and paint my own stuff. If I was younger though I doubt I would have gotten into it because my parents were super religious at the time and things with demons in them were banned.

>>52369463
They're a bit overcosted desu, so I'd be fine with it.

If we're talking homebrew, I'd make it a WC2 power that perils like normal ones, with all the restrictions summoning normally has.

I can't fault your logic, but I'll miss the double plas.
The price for PM's got out of control after kelly saw fit to kit them out with fucking everything.

I still really like the idea of the Sorc summoning daemons, so a DP will probably be a movelty for 2500 point games when we get to it.

>>52369458

Thanks for the advice lads.

>>52369431
In reference to the basilisks I think it's because they can get ignores cover which wyverns come stock with, this also buff hydras since they ignore jink.

Yeah thematic armies get bonuses but FW will catch up eventually, I can understand why you would hold off playing d-99 with 8th looming round the corner.
With a list involving such loadouts you're missing ap2/1 as if I'm not mistaken basilisks are ap3 and your only ap1 is the demolisher. If you're running standard battle tanks then take the heavy weapons squads as lascannons so you can hunt teqs/MCs/vehicles while your tanks deal with meqs and light vehicles and your infantry act as screens and obsec.
Honestly punisher pask is one of the best combos guard has right now, along with an executioner with plasma sponsons you get 3 S7 Ap2 blasts with split fire so that Pask can go hunting infantry. Then take a battle tank/demolisher for hunting either meqs or AV14/MCs.
The best way to build tanks is to magnetise them and I can't stress enough that magnetising your tanks is the best way to build them so you can swap them out on the fly for each game you play

So my friend told me if I base my models with ceramite white it'll make later colors pop out more

I'm wondering if I've made a mistake

>>52369623
THIN

THAT

PAINT

>>52369634
Anon....


you have to actually prime the models first.

Someone help me come up with some fluff for my new AdMech army. I'm having a tough time coming up with much more than "they like machines", which is weird because I'm usually good at this shit.

>>52369634
wew

>>52369474
Basilisks it is then! I always found them cooler than wyvens. Plus who doesn't love huge cannons and large blasts.

>>52369544
So the guard shoot the infantry, the battle tanks shoot the MC/MEQ and then the lascannon teams shoot the highAV and 2+? And the basilisks just shoot whatever needs a pummeling?

>>52369645
He only primed it anon. I asked him about it and the Eagles still on it and his answer was pretty much

How's my Alpha Legion list? (I'd use the web builder but it doesn't have FW units)

Are flamer Chosen worth it?

Should I keep the bikers or swap them with something else?

>>52369674
He meant the paint on the treads. It's shit.

>>52369674
Did he prime it with fucking plastidip? What a stinky nigger to bring 3 and not even paint them.

>>52369685
If going for Alpha, why not use cultists?

>>52369661

I did. With Chaos Black spray

>>52369700
I've never really had much luck with them, I was going more for a 30k Alpha "decapitation strike" thing.

Man I love chaos and all, but I swear if another fucking bolt pistol or anything manages to cut me/scratch me/pierce my fingertip or otherwise maim or harm me I'm going to fucking melt my entire collection

>>52369685
throw away all chosen
get some cultists and a couple goodies for their points
bikers are good so keep those

>tfw you could buy Kriegers instead of that new ps4 or computer, but fuck if you have anyone to play with or free time to paint them.

I chose to make money. I didn't realize I'd have no time to spend it on the things I love.

>>52369701
Okay, next step. Don't go straight white. Start at mechanicus standard, and build up tones till you get to ulthuan grey if you're trying to do white. If you just want the colors to be more vibrant, prime in mechanicus standard, or just grey primer. You're not putting enough thin coats, or you're thinning your paint a bit too much.

>>52369717
Wait what? Why would I get rid of my infiltrating special weapons units?

>>52369673
The basilisks will fire on similar targets to the battle tanks, which is light AV12 and lower as well as meq and other blobs. infantry blobs deal with other infantry and the lascannon teams hit high AV and 2+.
Lascannons are not a cost effective way of removing terminators btw and something like terminator annihilation force and massed 2+ could fuck you hard. You need some blast/mult shit Ap2 weapons like plasma cannons/demolisher cannons or plasma guns. Also you would need at least one melta suicide team of some sort to hit Av14 since lascannons alone are going to get caught up against MCs/GCs mainly.

>>52368402
Yeah, me and my freinds will often set house rules if we're doing things like kill team to make the games we play go faster and be more combat focused.

>>52369739
I respect you for playing Bangles.

That having been said list looks fun.

>>52369731
they cost a ton and will all die in a single turn
to be honest I never played them as alpha legion and the infiltrate might make them more useful but for me they never worked out

>>52368457
Shit I never knew how much I wanted this until now. I would buy it in a heartbeat if it was available.

>>52368457
Kill Team

>>52369766
I've never had issues with them, the Sorcerer with the Mindveil can get them around where they need to be easily enough.

>>52369754

I'm sure it will get blown out of the sky by the Riptide Wings or White Scars Gravbikers that permeate my store, but damnit, I want to have fun doing it.

>>52367398
