Wouldn't be hard. They can already infiltrate, so as long as they can set up pretty close and charge turn 1 that'll be helpful.

well everything is getting changed.
while things aren't going to be perfectly balanced. Heavier playtesting and writing all the rules together will ensure that there's a much smaller gap in power levels.

as for shooting, changes to wounding, armour, cover and general wounds inflation means that shooting will be less lethal and more consistent.

>>53486923
Wouldn't be hurt by it either if that personality was just hinted at with things like "I think it hates us" and guesses that are just as wrong as they are right and the only bugs that really have personality and independent thought are the synapse. All the other ones just seem to mirror the closest synapse in personality.

As as long as it isn't clear, defined, or relatable but just hinted at vaguely. After all in Starship troopers the Brainbug felt fear after it was captured.

Agreed. To by honest at first I was kind of excited about Guilliman coming back but the execution has been fucking garbage so far.

The only way 40k could redeem itself at this point is if the Primaris Marines turn out to be 1/3rd Alpha Legion and there's a massive mutiny and Guilliman fucking dies, right as a much larger Tyranid Hive Fleet shows up and the Ynnari start slaughtering Imperial Worlds to feed their death god.

Necrons were never scary because they're just metal skeletons. Like how much more of a meme can you be then "oh my god they were SPOOKY SKELETONS". They were just cheap imitation nids with a far shittier aesthetic. The newcron treatment was needed because oldcrons were shit all over by nids doing everything they did better.

Until someone kills them with poison, as if they weren't able to adapt those things.
Monarch butterflies eat poison as larva and become venomous as adults. It would have been nice if Tyranids had incorporated radioactive Baalite sand into their carapaces and had gotten rad grenade rules of -1T when in contact with the enemy...but the Real Great Chaosdevourer ate them.

Naw if anything needs were the shitty version of necrons.

Nids have a knowable motivation, to consume.

Necrons were inhuman and unknown. So ancient and primal they are the reason all life in the Galaxy fears skulls and skeletons.

Why are they waking up? Why are they stealing children and murdering?

They were honestly one of my favourite parts of the lore, something that reminded the audience that the universe was vast and cold with secrets predating man by eons.

The new fluff was a big reason why I quit 40k for years.

I don't mind overwatch so much (although I'd prefer it was a "You don't shoot if you overwatch, but you get x reward for being prepared" instead), but random charge is utterly dumb.
You can have your tactics right, and just get absolutely left standing there, dick hanging out, due to random chance. You've already got that with a pile of other rolls, you don't want to exacerbate it by being open to fire from everyone.

>>53487135

That's literally retarded. The reason why we fear skulls is because they're inextricably linked to death and death is scary.

Yes. I have some for working on gunpla. That said they weren't the acrylic metallics, so I don't have personal experience with those. I think they don't have a great rep so I'd test on some sprue or something first. The best acrylic metallics are Vallejo Air.

Metal. Human. Skeletons.

Necrons were literally the least scary Faction from the moment they debuted. They look like bad halloween costumes. Most of them STILL LOOK THAT BAD.

>>53487167
>Eldar onto the Ynnari?
The Ynnari gave the Eldar a (tenuous) path forward. Prior to that they were just a doomed race.

>>53487135
If I had to make an educated guess, it's because the Jormungandr's favored tactic is massed underground burrowing, and the Trygon is a really big model of similar size to Riptides/Knights/etc.

I'm sure GW would love the chance to showcase one of their big plastic kits as the thing the main hive fleet is using, rather than Leviathan which was 'buckets and buckets of gaunts'

>The reason why we fear skulls is because they're inextricably linked to death and death is scary.
Legend says it was the Nightbringer's rampage that instilled the fear of death into the living, which is why people think of the dead like a black hooded scythe wielding monster, but that image was inspired from him and not the other way around. But it's said he was stopped before he could brutalize the orks, and that's why orks lack fear of death.
And then the humies are the ones who have the And They Shall Know No Fear rule while you have to beat D3 orks to keep them in line when facing lasguns.
Welcome to 40k, where rules are made up and nothing makes sense.

>>53486963
I wish people would stop calling it "noblebright".

There's nothing bright about the current state of the galaxy, or the 40K universe in general.

Also it's been covered like a dozen times now, the new 40K setting is BOTH Nobledark and Grimdark, since the galaxy is split in half.

>>53487195
Naw. Flayers are cool. And they channeled the Terminator vibe.

>>53487175

>the new 40K setting is BOTH Nobledark and Grimdark, since the galaxy is split in half.

They set it up like that. Then old Bobby Rowboated his way across the void to hand-deliver the shiny new Ultraultramarines to the blood angels.

>>53487234
if any of the new fluff was grimdark pretty much all the main characters would be dead because they've been acting like retards and only plot armor keeps them alive.

>>53487212
So death and skeletons didn't exist before necrons?

how do you make a primaris marine?

>>53487212
Literally every Faction in 40k is death. Space Marines are the Angels of Death. Orks bring war and death. Daemons bring disease, slaughter and death. Dark Eldar bring torture and then death. Tyranids bring the absolute death of entire planets to the point that they are never habitable again.

Necrons are like a 5-year-olds concept of a scary faction like "oooh, spooooky, they're about DEATH cuz they are SKELETONS" it's so bad it's fucking laughable.

Like which is a scarier movie, the original Alien, or The Mummy? Shit was so weak they let Ward retcon everything about the Necrons because the knew the faction as it existed was pointless.

>>53487221
Not really. That's not really a goal, just a thing they do.

I might spray for a ants, but killing ants isn't my goal in life.

Didn't explain shit like them destroying settlements, taking a single human child, and leaving. Or any of the other weird stuff they did in the old fluff.

>>53487284
This is literally meaningless because they had no interaction with humanity and the concept of death emerged without them, and would have always emerged without them because, news flash, death is a thing that exists and is caused by things that aren't necrons 2435674532421567352556743235367326344563 times more often than it's caused by anything even indirectly relating to necrons.

>>53487300
I read Lovecraft all the time. That's why I like Tyranids. Genestealer Cults are Lovecraftian as fuck. Moreso, a Hive Mind of unknowably ancient bio-horrors taking freakish insectile-alien shapes coming from the cold void beyond the furthest stars humanity has ever approached to devour everything we know, having already devoured more than we can ever know, preceded by a psychic aura of unspeakable monolithic immensity that makes prophets go mad, babbling about nightmarish visions of the apocalypse with billions of hungry alien mouths feeding on the red flesh of every person as they snuff out the light of all the stars in the galaxy? That's the most Lovecraftian thing there is.

You know what's not Lovecraftian?

It's okay to admit you have no literary comprehension skills to tell apart good writing from "AND THEN THE BIGGEST STRONGEST SPACE MARINS FOUGHT REALLY EVEN HARDER AND DEFEATED ONE MILLION TIMES THEIR OWN NUMBER BY FIGHTING REAL HARD"

>>53487373

>>53487227

Orks absolutely are afraid of death though- they are just literally too stupid (or sometimes too angry) to notice when death is upon them. A boy will run down an empty field right into the sights of a sign-in heavy weapons squad because the boy is just dumb enough to think that he'll actually make it into combat with that heavy weapon team and not get unceremoniously blown to pieces. And so he'll get unceremoniously blown to pieces. Not even entertaining the notion that you may die until it happens is not the same thing as courage. Marines know no fear because they expect death as an inevitably and when it comes, they jump to it with open arms.

Orks can be fearless and throw themselves at you careless of death, or they can run away like cowards. It depends on the collective mood of the horde, mostly what the Warboss is emitting. Generally if the Warboss dies they'll puss out and break. If he's knockin some gits and taking names then they'll swarm over your lines like Zerg. Orks are all psychically connected so this shit can change instantly.

That's really neat. The fact that the stomps are now a seperate weapon that just triples the attack volume is a clever solution. That said, I don't really see the need to ever stick to melee with chaff when you could just fall back and shoot the shit out of most units without fear of retaliation.

Yes. All termies are at least 2w. This was one of the first things leaked from GW, so it's been common knowledge for like a month now.

>no space for termi lord and retinue
did they playtest this at all?

>>53487829
He probably got nerfed pretty hard, considering playtesting was done by tournyfags and Magnus lists were destroying tournaments at the tail end of 7th

Rhubrics squads are 120 points base now at PL8 with 18ppm for each other Rhubric.

>>53487833
Maybe they'll add a rule that lets you replace the spare tire with a Lord.

>>53487626
Standard for deep strikers. It's about a 28% chance to succeed, or 48% if you use your one reroll to get him in there.

YOU FUCKING CUNTS, HOW DO YOU FUCK THIS UP SO BADLY AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

>>53487831
Ahh my bad then.

>>53487833
>not teleporting your termie lord and friends 9" away from your opponent, Warp Timing them forward, and charging the fuck out of your opponent

>>53487833
It's the same as the current rules? And traditionally Chaos Termies have been minimum size 3.

>Havoks are still awesome
>can now take Havoks as compulsory
>can even make them CC Marines

Why play vanilla CSM squads again?

Remember you disgruntlement and save it until their suggestion pool opens.

>>53487858
but chaos termies are now minimum unit size 5

>>53487827
I doubt that. GW will sell out their stock and once they sell the last of it - the curtain will go down and the last manlet will turn off the light.

>>53487858
Make a choice, is 5 the same as current rules or is 3?

>>53487849
>>AT BEST THEY CAN HAVE A LAS CANNON WITH HALF THE DAMAGE AND HALF THE RANGE
No, at best they can have a two-shot lascannon with a consistent damage of 3 instead of an average of 3.5, at half range. If you roll well they're better than a lascannon.

>>53487815
Not him but I'll be a little pedantic here.

Demon is Anglicized from its Greek root but is used almost universally to reference cacodaemonia due to Christian influence in western culture.
Daemon itself is a neutral term meaning "replete with knowledge" and has the same moral slant as saying spirit.

>>53487852
Remember characters are no longer part of units. Still good, but you're going to WT the unit or the character unless you drop in multiple psykers.

THE MARKS
WHERE ARE THEM?

>>53487870
>min is now 5

Holy fuck. They're also 31ppm. Wtf

>>53487533
At 65 pts for a random weapon(average roll is pretty much an auto cannon) vs havoc's 13+ weapon, I don't see oblits being useful anymore.

>>53487866
The triple detachments give you 1 command point.
(except the fucking SHVY)

You can do it, but you'll be short on flex and reactions.
