Soon gitz. Soon.

Ready for Guard to be top tier for months until they release updates for Marines and Eldar.

Kitting out an assault squad, any thoughts on what I should give the Sergeant?

So if i won't be able to attach a Character to a unit in Newhammer, what will that mean for Characters like Saguinary Priests and Crypteks who only exist to buff other units? Will their rules be bubbles? WHo the fuck would be dumb enough to put something like that out in the open even if you can't shot it when there are other models closer?

So what are you guys doing today? I just finished a game where I got tabled by a land raider full of inquisition and 2 assassins

Are there any Raven/Raptor formations?

Black Templars: same question?

>>53154140
Might work like Apothecaries in 30k, you buy them and must be instantly attached to another unit and cant leave it.

>>53154155
Theyre better than taking fireblades currently

>>53154161
Jesus what was his list and yours?

Reminder that boys who aren't girls are getting tossed out of helicopters when 8th drops.

>>53154140

They'll probably have bubble effects.

>>53154168

No specific formation that boosts their chapter tactic, Raven Guard get a whole bunch of them.

Formations are going out in a month though.

Not at all in my experience. Every time I've used an Ethereal it does literally nothing, but my fireblades usually cheese-graters at least a blob or two of infantry

He had a vindicare, the anti psyker one with the skull, and a land raider with 6ish deathwatch dudes with various power weapons, a priest, an inquistor, 5 acolytes and 2 monkeys.
I had 21 conscripts with 2 priests, 2 ten 10 man infantry squads, 3 missile launchers, pcs in a chimera, ccs in a chimera, a demolisher , an enginseer, vets in a chimera.

The only thing that could hurt the land raider was 2 melta guns, a lascannon and 3 missile Launchers.

Was fun though

Your store has some patrician taste at least, especially for having so much terrain. Seems like every pic from the tabletop on here is the same little grassy field with a small building on two corners and some hills on the other two corners.

Every time I think some of the new GW sculpts are crap, people post this third party stuff and remind me how GW are actually still the best just because everyone else is so much fucking worse.

>>53154336
Seconded. Snow tables are the absolute fucking best tables.

>>53154337
To be fair, those Russian not!SoB minis posted earlier look about on par with GW's quality standard. Most third-party minis DO look like shit though.

Despite the real possibility of getting nothing but shitposting for asking this, do we know the numarines will be their own unit, or is it possible that they're just going to replace the current space marine models, and robootie making numarines is just a in-universe reason for GW to stop selling non true-scale marines?

>>53154851
He could already pick characters out of units without restriction so it's not like much has actually changed.

Really the new character rules hardly effect characters themselves, they just prevent them from being abused to be invincible living shields that stand in front of glass cannon units, like a Tech-Priest in a squad of Skitarii.

>>53154890
They will be a new unit, possibly a whole new set of units. Gw's new promo material for the new edition shows classic space marines in their painting guides, so I don't expect them to be discontinued so, though I don't see new units of their size anytime soon either.

Going by the current format- Noise Marines and Lucius get updated, Fulgrim gets a model, new noise terminators and some sort of slaanesh cultist are added, and a Slaanesh chaos lord with an option for a steed are likely to come.

So, are we guessing that Angron and Khorne update is coming after Mortarion and Death Guard, or Fulgrim and ECs first?

The hints in Gathering Storm seemed to indicate Fulgrim would be first but now all this sudden focus on Armageddon makes me think they actually will save Slaanesh for last as usual.

>>53154743

>>53155006

>>53155041
I don't think the format is that set in stone, since it looks like Death Guard aren't going to quite match up with Thousand Sons that precisely - they're getting a Plague Drone model and I don't think they have a mounted Lord.

I'm pretty sure it'll all be really cool- including Slaanesh ones. They'll probably look like real bulky noise marines if anything.

Man i hope that flamer and heavy flamer squads will be twice as viable now if not then my entire blood angels army is going to have to redesigned.

They also have decent torsos to use with it, but if you go to GW stores then they won't allow you to use whole models without GW plastic. You can still headswap in GW stores though.

I'm expecting Amp/speaker shoulder pads, ideally with Sonic blasters on each arm

>>53154984
KDK wasn't asked for but I love em so whatever. Daemons and CSM should always work together.

>>53155421
I'd be okay with those autocannons and flamers to be really good. Because I'm too lazy to paint the other options, despite magnetized arms and telling myself that I'll do it someday.

Vendetta firing 3 TW Lascannons at a Leman Russ tank/SM dread:

3 shots

When Fulgrim gets a mini, Slaanesh will have the absolute most handsome, snaky model in the game bar none.

[spoilee]I actually wish GW would play up the serpent/snake theme with Slaanesh a bit more like they do with birds in Tzeentch. It'd give their daemons a more unified theme and plays up the whole temptation idea.[/spoiler]

I can dig it. Maybe a beautiful swordsman unit that have less of the freaky shit going on. Could still have weird options on the sprue, like normal handsome heads and stretched out demonic heads.

>>53155529
It would be a great way for them to play down nudity/sex in the line and make it more family friendly (Not my preference but I can see why GW is doing it)

KDK doesn't even count as a real faction because it has zero (0) unique models, it's just a different way of combining existing models from other lines with a couple new rules.

Mark my words in 8th edition "Khorne Daemonkin" won't be a thing anywhere outside of the fluff, however you'll probably still be able to play with the Blood Tithe as long as you follow certain restrictions like taking all Khorne units (both CSM and Daemons) in a Detachment.

So it will exist but no longer require a separate faction name to distinguish it.

Wouldn't even mind honestly. As long as I can take daemons and marines while using blood tithe it won't bother me in the slightest. Blood tithe was a fucking brilliant idea on GW's part.

>>53155970
Riptides will be overall less durable because of Rend values affecting 2+ saves, lower strength weapons Wounding it on 5's instead of 6's, and the fact that they'll degrade as they take damage.

Also because the main guys in charge of playtesting don't like Tau players which is top fucking kek.

Considering this is how IG Commissars have always been handled, it'll probably be how things are for a few Characters.

I just got a bunch of different grey citadel paints and some white primer. Would white primer be better for painting grey armour than black primer?

What chapter should I paint my scouts?

Leaning towards Charcharodons for my SM Scout killteam as I'm currently in Guam so the Polynesian/islander thing would be fitting, also chainaxes are kewl. Can't find any other aquatic based chapters besides iron snakes? I really like the color scheme for storm wardens but worry it might be better to go with a more popular chapter. Any blood angels books worth reading? They seem pretty cool as far as the more popular chapters go.

>>53156087
That's because Guard>Chaos. Just like my Commissar said!

Here's hoping Tactical Marines and their Chaos equivalents get something nice because right now it's:

Second reminder that the people primarily in charge of playtesting are Frontline Gaming who are known for shitting on Tau players and laughing as they drink their tears at the tournaments.

I think one of the stories went something like all these taufags were coming up to Reece or one of those guys and complaining there was too much terrain on the tables because their faggy gunlines couldn't see the whole opponent's army and wipe them on the first Shooting phase and the FG guys laughed in their faces and said "fucking good".

Those are the people who GW heavily relied on for playtesting. We won't be getting ANY retarded shit like Riptide Wing this edition.

>>53155647
I figured that was part of the job! Our LGS manager basically paints whatever's in the stock when he has spare time.

We return the favor by building custom boards on occasion, but the store's small size makes it difficult to fit more than the default 3 sometimes.

>>53156372
Hopefully. But that they gave GW feedback doesn't have to mean GW actually did something with that feedback however.

>>53154232
Damn, that looks fucking good besides the somehow even more prominent boobplate. If GW's doesn't look as good or better I'll be disappointed.

Sounds like they are at least making an honest attempt for that to not be the case.

>>53156372
the people balancing the game should be more professional. Outright favoritism and hostility towards particular factions implies bias that is likely to bleed over into the games rules and points for units.

>Daemon Princes will either have 10+ wounds or be untargetable
>tfw winged Prince rollin' with raptors to fuck the day

>>53156584
If there are no units that aren't at least viable in somewhat casual games it's a win in my book. Can't remember the last time I've seen a las/missile dread ...

>>53156618
With the 4 wounds they have now, I might expect them to go over 10. I'm almost hopeful that it'll be just at 10, since then I can have my non-winged Chaos lord hide in the center of a big cultist blob

>>53156605
>Meanwhile Phil Kelly is still working for GW

>>53156625
I don't think it's a fair standard to hope that every unit is viable in every combination, but to at least hope that there is some reason to bring a model to the table is probably what to shoot for. Give everything a niche.

>>53156625
>>53156584
Doubtless there will be some options that are better or worse, but as long as they avoid situations like Gravcannons where one option was so obviously better than everything else that it was dumb to not take it, it'll be fine.

>>53156618
>>53156630
shit man, if a primarch gets to hide in a unit then damn sure a daemon prince should too. At least that's my thinking on the matter.

>>53156644
That's what I meant. If people really like a unit, there should at least be some way to use it in a game without being comparable to shooting yourself in the kneecaps before a friendly game of football (or soccer)

>>53156662
Well, it's basically a question of if the Daemon prince is like Guilliman where it's just going to get a relatively slight increase, or if it's like a Dreadnought and it'll basically triple.

It's tough to say.

>Jamal is porking Brittany on top of the realm of battle battle board
Old enough to bleed

>>53156707

I'm honestly fine with either, I think. However, the thought of a flying, hidden Prince get my juices flowing.

>>53155993
Hits on a 5+ if you have the gall to actually MOVE your tanks, too :^) -3 rend is stretching it, probably only gonna be -2 if you're really lucky.

>>53156011
>90% likely to have better stats than Leman Russ
>somehow worse
Moron logic is something special alright.

>>53156033
>implying rend won't affect the Russ's 3+ just the same
Riptide will be at least T8, they said they were making EVERYTHING more durable. Can't nerf those cash-cow armies, gotta keep people buying their anime robots. It may not be by much, but they WILL be hardier than Russes, and have much better weapons.

Well when GW can make their plastic buildings the same price as my sand and foam core buildings I'll be down for sticking to the template.

Also fuck the Corpse god

If there are no more templates how will massed Guard artillery work?

>>53156836
Each arty piece frags a unit for xd6 wounds

>>53156823
Hey looking good, fellow Slaaneshi

>>53156605
>t. taufag
Feels like shit when the pendulum swings the other way, doesn't it?

Lucky for you, FG definitely are more professional than GW and likely won't be nerfing Tau too hard, but rather just enough to keep them in line with the other races instead of having bullshit like the Riptide being the best unit in the game.

>>53156836
To-hit rolls like everything else on a 6+
to represent how inaccurate 40k artillery is :^).

Probably mediocre damage output if you actually hit something, too.

>>53156751
I hope riptides are stronger and tougher than russes. You can't take fucking squads of riptides. Fa14 ra 11 hp4 squads was already bullshit for anything short of massed melta at least your average MC had a chance in melee with a riptides and infantry could kill it.

>>53156836
pick a unit within [weapon's range] inches. That unit takes [x]d6 automatic hits. Pretty easy.

>>53156836
>>53156854
We don't know yet.
They could 2d6 hits, 1d6+3 hits, 1d6, who the fuck knows at this point.

Also will there be any damage on a missed shot to rep resent the blast radius?

>>53156887
>You can't take squads of riptides

Yes you can you fucking drooling retard.

>>53156903
I don't think blast weapons will auto hit. That's only good for flamers.

>>53156887
You can take squads of tides ffs
Just stop you are reason everyone fucking hates fucking tau

Are there any other chapters that use green in their color scheme for CSM nurgle followers?

>>53156914
The Purge?

>>53156914
Do you mean a loyalist chapter that you could paint up as traitors?

>>53156860
Thank you.

Now I just need to hope fortifications are usable, though with massed guard/renegades looking good I'm hopeful.

>>53156887
>RA11
>4HP
At least know the stats for a unit before you post something this stupid, anon. You're only 1 for 3 on the front armor.

Also, what is a lascannon? You could instagib a Russ from 48" away with a good roll.

>>53156906
>Squads of riptides
Jesus Christ how horrifying.

I thought the formations and 4 riptides was rough. Who the fuck thought that was a good idea? I'm guessing the same guy who thought up putting a scatter laser on every single guardian jetbike.

>>53156928
>>53156934
I'm not sure. I've only ever played Orks and know literally nothing about csm, but the CSM half of DV landed in my lap and I love the color green.

Not sure if Nurgle though, but probably.

So does /tg/ think that Eldar are still going to be prime cheddar in 8th?
