I’ve always wanted to do a Ordo Hereticus Inquisition army after first seeing pic related but I’m not sure what models to get exactly. So far I’ve got Greyfax and two squads of Tempestus Scions to use as inq stormtroopers. I was thinking rhinos for transport but I have no idea what else I would need. I only really want a small force of about 1k points or so.

If it's PL, then Knights can only brought if your opponent agrees to it. The only time I've seen anyone run a knight in a PL game is when it's some sort of themed mission like a last desperate defence or something like that.

Compared to most of my countrymen my English is excellent, which is why I study the language at university, thank you very much.

And I still stand by that. If your people skills are so atrocious that you get angry listening to other people speak a language the "wrong way" then you need to spend more time around actual human beings or hole yourself up and play a less social hobby.

>yeesh, are they really that bad?
It's an extremely skewed list and not terribly fun to play against if you aren't ready for it. That said it's not even the most powerful list. Depending on how competitive your local meta is it may be perfectly fine.

Had a tough time against a Space Marine list with my Orks the other day, and he didn't even have chapter tactics.

Mine was a hodepodge of the normal units that I just like to play:

1750 - 1 Battalion

Warboss w/PK and Kustom Shoota
Weirdboy w/Da Jump

30 boyz w/slugga (also nob w/PK)
20 boyz w/shootas (also 2 w/ Rokkits and nob w/Kustom Shoota)
10 Gretchin

Painboy w/Orderly
5 Nobz w/2 PKs and 3 Big Choppas
3 Meganobz w/1 Combi-Scorcha

10 Stormboyz (also Nob w/PK)

Dakkajet w/6 Supa Shootas

Def Dread w/1 Big Shoota and 1 Scorcha
Battlewagon w/Kannon and 4 Big Shootas
Mek Gun w/Kustom Mega-Kannon

2 Trukks w/Big Shootas and Wreckin' Balls

Shoota Boyz went in the Battlewagon

I don't remember exactly, but he had something like:

1750 - I think a Vanguard and a Battalion

Captain on Bike w/Power Fist
Librarian on Bike w/Power Sword and Strength of Heroes and Warp Time
Lieutenant w/Assault Bolter

5 Tac Marines w/Metlagun
5 Tac Marines w/Plasmagun
5 Tac Marines w/Grav Canon

?Sicarian? (I think that's what it's called)
Contemptor Dread w/Assault Cannon and Storm Bolter

5? man Bike Sqaud (I think, might have been 6) and w/Grav Gun and Sarge w/Power Axe

6 Devastators w/2 Las and 2 Missiles

Razorback w/Heavy Bolter
Razorback w/Assault Cannon
Rhino


Can't really speak for him but I think we both had a good time, but I can't help but wish my Boyz had performed a bit better. I was able to surprise him by jumping my 30 boyz unit into his backline and charging his Captain and Librarian but I wasn't able to get many attacks off and the Librarian lived on 1 wound with the Cap taking no damage. My Dakkajet was almost destroyed turn 1 and then took 3 wounds off of a Razorback before dying. All in all I had a hard time concentrating any force onto his side of the board while he was able to pick off my stuff one at a time. I was also rolling pretty poorly that game, but I don't want to that at fault for everything. I guess it didn't help that it was the Hammer and Anvil.

That might have been the intent, but it has become the "lets have fun with plastic soldiers" format, and it's all the better because of that. 30PL could be a fuck ton of plasma, but it can also be a mix of units with risky moves and do or die assaults.

What is the least model count army! GK? Deathguard?
By the way how does playing these two armies feel?
>>
>Veterans are Elite choices
>Tempestus Scions are Troop choices

Literally why. This is like Army Rangers being considered more elite than SFOD-D, it's fucking stupid.
>>
>>54559445
There's been a slight pushback, but nothing significant. Praxmia Skyport might become a 50/50 split, but I don't think it'll fall over to chaos, at least not for any significant amount of time, since it's worldwide.
>>
>>54559413
Oops, just remembered they were Veteran Bikers. Wondered why he was short an Elite choice.
>>
>>54559466
Imperial Knights. If you mean infantry then a Termy heavy GK list or Battlesuit only Tau list.
>>
>>54559466
The faction with the lowest model count is Imperial Knights, which I understand are very powerful in powerfaggot levels.
>>
Not really getting the 40k Grand Alliances.

I get Chaos and the Imperium, though I don't get why Imperial Guard can't ally with Space Marines but can with Custodes.
>>
>>54559466
Titan legions followed by kmoghts followed by GK followed by deathwing
>>
>>54559471
Scions are supposed to be their own army, Veterans are supposed to be the Elite of normal guard units. Yes, it is stupid, but I at least see the idea they had when doing it.

>>54559466
Technically? Knights. If we're talking least model count that people actually play against, then Grey Knights with lots of Paladins, Dreadnoughts and Dreadknights or a Tyranid Monster Mash.
>>
>>54559466
Thousand Sons can be quite low model count if you don't wanna take Tzaangors.

>>54559466
GK are very low count as are "Wraith host" eldar. It takes a bit to kill them but you feel every single death, kinda makes you appreciate their sacrifice when they have to do something crazy but you will feel like a fool if you let them die due to reckless tactics.
>>
>>54559471
my guess is that scions have a lot of training time but comparatively little combat experience whereas vetarans are pure combat experience.
>>
>>54559504
It does not work like that. Factions have keyword. If they sharw the keyword rhey can be in the same army. Orks have keyword ork. No one else has jeyword ork.
>>
>>54559504
Nothing, which is why they don't. You got meme'd. The Grand Alliance thing was a ruse. The only reason Xenos are grouped together for the campaign is because they're all irrelevant for it, so GW wasn't going to bother splitting them apart.

>>54559447

No, power level was -intended- to be the casual format, but at least in my area people powergame and minmax like -nuts- the minute they don't need to track individual upgrades anymore. And my meta is fairly casual in points games.
>>
>>54559504
Chaos and Imperium have Grand Alliances, Xenos don't.

Eldar, Deldar and Harlies are together. GSC and Nids are together.

Necrons, Orks and Tau are separate from everyone.

Chaos has the entire Xenos range at their fingertips if they play their cards right.

>>
>>54559550
Well, I think the COD loadout is better than the carbine, because a) they have an easy time getting into melee and b) using the Shock Grenade is less counter-intuitive than having to move a unit with 24" range up to within 6" for it.

The choice between Grav-Chute and Grappling Hook comes down to whether you want something that is just decent and reliable (Chute) or something with higher risk and higher reward, namely the chance of either appearing within grenade range or appearing completely stranded.

You don't have to battle Imperials for Chaos to get points. You can just play against Death Guard and give the points to Chaos no matter who wins. That's why Imperium, the most played faction by far, is guaranteed to win.

Actually it doesn't. In Germany, every pupil is requires to learn English from Year 1 (6 years old) until at least Year 10 (15 years old). Nine years of learning a language qualifies as more than "can barely speak the language", I'd say.

>generic vanilla humans

Even ultramarines are viceless killing machines, they don't have 75% of anything that would make an ordinary human male recognizable.

>no variation between chapters

They're superficial differences to explain different gameplay skews, every faction has them, orks especially (they're orks but they drive fast, theyre orks but they like to get in big mobs, they're orks but rich)

That being said over the decades most of those chapters have had plenty of characterization to make them far more interesting than their paint scheme

I think you're suffering from overexposure to marines due to your main interaction with 40k being /tg/ shit posting and memes. If your main justification for liking your army is that it's not the most popular, it's not a very mature opinion.

Make your own successor chapter or pick an established one that you like the look of, most have very little set in stone as far as chapter masters and stuff.

You can pick whichever chapter tactics you want depending on who you want your progenitor Primarch to be
>>
>>54559696

The single cheapest dreadnought is a mortis with four heavy bolters, at 109 points.

3 of them leaves 173 points. A Blood Angels librarian dread, a chaplain dread and Bjorn are all more expensive than that. Of the three named character forge world dreads, only Titus, at 170 points, qualifies.

So yes, you can just barely play a dread army at 500 points if you take three quad heavy bolter Mortis Dreads and Titus.

Transonic_Blade.png
194KB, 640x194px
I was reading about Skitarii Transonic Weapons and was thinking that they'd create some pretty cool fighting styles if you extrapolated their properties.

You get megaslice "fuck your Termie armour" capabilties, but only after the first time you hit something, so you'd have to implement moves designed to tag your enemy as quickly and safely as possible to activate Transonic, regardless of the actual damage that would do to start with. In mutual Transonic duelling, you might wear some kind of layered mesh/leather/whatever armour to mitigate the damage one hit could do so you could have relatively safe formal duels to second or third hit.

I kind of feel like this would be some kind of Malagra sporting activity, we need more Admech fluff dammit.
>>
>>54559765
If GW got off the Imperium vs Chaos dickriding we might get some fluff that actually runs the numbers and realizes the only endgame for the galaxy is Nids and Orks killing each other on the smoldering ruins of everyone else, forever, and loving it. Octarius is just the preview.
>>
>>54559951

Plain regular ones with a captain, lt and ancient nearby (and yeah they got some free dying shots)

Eventually moved up into rapid fire range but even outside rapid fire 10 overcharged shots will do about 8.89 wounds to a razorback and that's not even accounting for rerolls.

The heavies are neat, they're honestly like super sniper rifles that can overcharge to hurt vehicles. I'll have to see what their points cost is before I really commit to them.

>They're superficial differences to explain different gameplay skews, every faction has them, orks especially (they're orks but they drive fast, theyre orks but they like to get in big mobs, they're orks but rich)

Yeah but Orks don't get entire codices and novel after novel dedicated to their subfactions that get more focus than entire species.

Where'd you get that? I don't care for the Imperium in general and the Marines in particular, doesn't mean that the factions I do like (Tau, Orks, Nids) I like just to be contrarian. They all have their genuine appeal.

So it turns out my gf is a natural at painting and she wants to give the tabletop side of the hobby a go.

She's interested in playing a Slaaneshi Daemon army, since she likes the models and lore.

Before I encourage it, would a pure Slaaneshi Daemon army work in 40k? I don't want her disheartened if she gets tabled match after match.

>That would be nice in theory, but in practice it's just people except sometimes they remember to put in regular humans next to them to look tall.

Considering that in nearly any other book on the planet a human male will be written such that his motivations are either getting laid or getting more money/power, marines that do nothing but pray and train all day so that they can die horribly to alien/daemonic nightmares don't come off as all that human to me. They certainly have human traits and embody certain ideals but to say that they're anything less than deranged even in their stereotypical portrayals is purposefully ignorant.

>Yeah but Orks don't get entire codices and novel after novel dedicated to their subfactions that get more focus than entire species.

Because ork factions aren't all that different from each other, in fact the only faction with less group diversity is probably tyranids and at least they have genestealer cults to really change the game.

The fact is that stuff is written for marines because they have an interesting premise and people consume it. Gorkamorka was cool as fuck but sadly not everyone appreciates green madmen like we do

>Where'd you get that? I don't care for the Imperium in general and the Marines in particular, doesn't mean that the factions I do like (Tau, Orks, Nids) I like just to be contrarian. They all have their genuine appeal.

It's hardly a conscious choice and I know plenty of guys who love their xenos but when someone's explanation for liking their faction involves some negative reference to Matt Ward ultramarines, it's a big hint.
>>
>>54560153

Two different jobs.

Aggressors lawn mow stuff with bad armor saves, centurions have heavy weapons that are good for hard targets.

>>54560179

Aggressors are point for point the most efficient horde killers in marines, they can also pile out of a repulsor which can also be fitted for mulching quite well.

>>54560273
Slaanesh can work very well if she wants to dedicate to it. Lets ignore taking anything CSM for right now and go over the basic daemons:

First note that all of them effectively swing first, or alternate if they get charged, so this is a big boon in melee.

Your psy powers are: Do moral wounds based on LD vs 2d6", nearest unit is -1 to hit, free fight phase for one of your units

The masque is pretty deadly vs enemy troops and such, A keeper murder pretty much anything and heralds strengthen your other units (very important!) Heralds on steeds are better, normal chariots are even better, exalted are kinda trash as you can be singled out due to wound count.

Daemonettes are fast, cheap and reasonably deadly. Take lots, give icons and instruments

Fiends are strong, but only slightly better than daemonttes. Good as they hold the enemy in place, also damn fast.

Seekers are faster daemonettes. Can take or not, no real loss

Your daemon princes will destroy things, axes are very useful to solve big problems, dual claws are good otherwise, points value for the sword is bullshit compared to claws.

Ignore chaos furies unless you want some. Only good thing about this is having higher strength than daemonettes and they are faster.

Soulgrinders are great fire support, but you're going to be speeding into melee with everything else. Would suggest flying daemon princes over grinders, but I would wait for new codex before going after soulgrinders heavily.

Only other thing to mention is obliterators will serve you well for fire support if you want CSM stuff. They are also daemons, so it fits.
>>
>>54560582

They're better with the spaceman jump marine because Fly models can fall back and shoot just fine, and the White Scars lets them assault afterwards, so they can just shoot and assault at will.
>>
>>54560494

You heard me, a 310 ish point leviathan with double grav shooting at a 20 man T4 unit will do 18.89 wounds against anyone without an invul

7 aggressors standing still shooting boltstorms and frag launchers will do 133 S4 shots on average which will do 44.3 wounds before saves, so against a 5+ They'll do 29.55 wounds, against a 4+ they'll do 22, against a 3+ they'll do 14.83

Flamestorms shooting twice will do 49 wounds before saves (that's overwatch too), 24.5 when moving

They're seriously points efficient

No, they have a equation that scales in opposition to the relative power of a model. In other words, the more broken a unit, the cheaper (relatively speaking) it tends to be. I'm afraid I'm going to break some kid's neck next session because he went FW all the way.

God no. The ONLY thing they lose to are elite low model count armies.

Knights are extremely nerfed this edition.
They're about 100 points more expensive, easier to kill, and without blasts and stomp, they're utterly helpless against hordes.

Ones that aren't small elite armies.
Those are for kids (and massive poorfags) so they can "play" the game despite not having many models.

Thanks anons, I really like GK gameplay wise from what I've seen, and I'd probably go for paladins. But the terminator helmets look better.. Or can I just pick one and it still counts as wysiwyg?

I don't think 90% of the playerbase even realize Paladins have their own derpy helmets, in fact I use the old 2003 metal terminators as Paladins and nobody cares

Only truly autistic fuckwits will attempt to tell you a terminator is not a paladin. If they do tell them to go fuck off. WYSIWYG is cancer, build the models how you like, and if that guy with a halberd is dual wielding falchions (which cost 0 points) fucking say he does.

The most you can want is suddenly GW giving storm shields in the GK terminator kits, they won't but its a dream.
>>
>>54561285
Yeah same. Even if it cost 0 it would have been very questionable to ever take over the standard bolt rifle.

And just to prove they are retarded, GW costed the Bolt Carbine at 0... which is, statwise, the exact same fucking weapon as the Auto Bolt Rifle.
>>
>>54561376

Not overheating, scared of getting one shot with it per phase. But that's what command points are for.

The original guy preferring the gameplay of Paladins but liking the models for Terminators is totally fine, because the only difference between the two is a single helmet and an optional back banner decoration.

The other guy saying it's the same as not even bothering to properly model your weapons (the most fucking important part of a model in terms of identification and gameplay) is a retard though.

Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Are you implying you act like this much of a retard and faggot in real life? No? Then why do you think everyone else online acts the same way in real life too. You said it yourself "muh anonymity". Man what's it like being this stupid and not being able to realize it when it's right in front of your face? Ignorance is bliss so you're just constantly ejaculating, right?
>>
>>54561496
Is the helmet difference officially defined in the fluff or just inferred by the models gw showcases? In that case, I don't think using the "correct" helmet could even be forced in case of a 100% autistic version of a wysiwyg tournament, for example.
>>
>>54561427

I don't have a pic but they both share a spot on my hobby table at the moment and primaris aren't all that much taller than a plastic GK termie at the moment. The termies are way bulkier anyway.
>>
What's a good tac-marine to primaris balance?
>>
>>54561496
This. I'm fine if someone wants to use different helmets on their Paladins (unless he's running both regular Termies AND Paladins, then he better have a good way to tell them apart). Don't fucking proxy weapons.

It's not in fluff, it's just a model thing.

Even more insulting, the helmets are only different on how curved the front of the faceplate is.

The biggest difference is the back banners/relics, that's how I tell my Paladins apart generally.

I don't think you'd be able to tell them apart by helmet, only by their back banners really

However, when it comes to color scheme he told me to pick whatever chapter I want as long as they are ultramarine descendants as he likes their warlord trait.

Anyone have any suggestions for fun schemes to paint?
>>
>>54561567

Aegis armor is the literal armor they wear, not a power. It's why every grey knight unit can try to deny which is pretty fucking strong.

But yeah storm shield GKs would be baller, they just traditionally don't have many of them for some reason.
>>
>>54561564
>having some retarded impossible to track combination of incorrect weapon options

If you like a model but not it's rules, then either refuse to use the model even though you like it, or try to CHEAT by using DIFFERENT RULES, you are WAAC. It doesn't matter who allows it or what the general consensus is. This is basic logic.

You like X. You refuse to use X, because of reasons.

Probably by building it as a CSM army since their terminators can all load out with combi weapons, so you could drop in, run at somebody then flame them with 10D6 flamer hits from a full squad.

And they can mix and match weapon systems, so you can take Axes, mauls, swords, chain and powerfists in any combination, and the squad can carry a mix of different types of combi weapons, and/or heavy flamers or reaper cannons, to split fire at different targets.

Black Templar. You deepstrike turn one and use the reroll to get the charge with 20+ terminators, then you use the teleport beacons to warp back before they all die to the counter attack.

This halts your opponent dead in his tracks allowing your crusader squads chances to drive up to assault in support. while your few remaining terminators grab your back objectives.

Plus they look amazing modeled.

What is the best army to hide 3rd party minis in?

I often play at GW Stores and they are a bit anal about having 3rd party minis.

Third Party Eldar minis stick out like a sore thumb so I can't use them on my main army.

However, I have the feeling that I could hide a few third party Orks here or there, and most people will not notice anything.

I don't care for mobs of third party, only a few minis here and there for variety.

What other armies would work well for this?
>>
>>54562133
Yeah, but were are we in affecting those scores?

We can fuck with those fancy Imperium, gits.

Or Chaos, if they ever get to the top spot.

I've never played with NL players, but I respectfully disagree. Night lords are, hilariously and ironically, the most human space marines there are. They are vain, petty, almost completely self-interested, and sometimes like to kick back, relax, and watch a teenager get disemboweled on a tv screen. Other astartes are paragons of virtue and righteousness or fanatically devoted to the dark powers, night lords look at both of them and say "I'm not cut out for this shit." Then they rob a planetary governors palace or do whatever it is they do. For genetically modified supersoldiers, out of all legions, they are the most human. Sure, that coincidentally makes them the worst at actually fighting wars but hey. I say that any man who likes night lords has patrician tastes.

You're pretty lucky. Every local one near me ends up as a day care- Parents just drop their snotlings off and expect other people to look after them because the kids were once helped to play starter games.

Sword and pistol Pretorians consistently edge out Lychguard, and are an avid choice. Wraiths fight Pretorians in the same "type" of model, but again, Pretorians have outclassed even them with the reanimation protocols over a 3++.

Scarabs should only be fielded as cannon fodder. Their 5+ to-wound is nothing due to no AP. 10" should be left to cap objectives, but is really cheap.

Heavy Destroyers are great as sniping, better than deathmarks and better at killing tanks than the Doomsday Arc. The Annihilation Barge is a solid option and is better than feilding regular Destroyers.

Crypteks are necessary, and you have 2 named ones if you have the points. Orikan is okay, and keeps the 5++ from ranged. I personally field Illuminor for the S8 -4AP D6 wounds (re rolling with the Stalker is a plus) and like to keep him upgrading my Immortals.

Monolith is useless, unfortunately. Too many points for too little. If you want drop-ship shenanigans the croissant is still the better option, but only at 2000+ point games in my opinion.

I have not fielded or tested FW stuff yet, but the Akanthrites seem decent. Competing with the Pretorians, but still solid.

If I had to choose between the Arc and H.Destroyers, I will pick the destroyers every time. DA has a 72" HD3, S10, AP-5, D6 but only when not moving. HD gets 36" H1 S9 AP-4, D6, and after moving 10". You lose 26", one point of strength and one point of mobility. But remember the DA is 203 and each HD is 43 (203/43=4.7), so you can field 5 HD for one DA.

If you field Tesla Immortals, you fire 24" twice. Better than most. And the rest of your army sprints ahead at 10" to 12". Plus, you can advance with your Immortals after giving them leadership with the overlord on the CCB to mitigate the penalty (10" move on average into 24" 3+ with 6+=3).

>>54562978
Man, I hope so. I love Lychguard and I am part of the filth that loves the sword-and-board. They have had 2W for a long time (I've been playing since 6th) and they have always been overcosted. The 2+ to take a wound for a character is nice, but with characters automatically healing 1 each turn... its kind of lackluster. I mainly miss how their shields had the chance to redirect the shots back at the attacker or adjacent on a save.

But, here I am talking about the shields again. If you field them with scythes, you will never be able to swing their great stat line. Leave that to the Overlord on the CCB.

Yep. Looked over at the model cost and forgot to add wargear. Still getting used to this different math system they are running.

So, 203/75=2.7.
3 HD means you have the same number of shots. And you get to reroll 1's even if you don't target the one targeted by your Stalker.

What I meant was they have a 5" movement. Even if you advance you wouldn't be able to charge. You'd be looking at turn 3 depending on who went first for your Lychguard to connect under your terms, or turn 2 on their terms.

>>54563213
Correct, so even more reason to field HDs instead. Only upside is that the DA has the Gauss Flayer array.

>>54563240
Feilding both? What, are we playing versus a Titan and need to fluff some points?
Really, the reanimation will win the race if you're fielding 3+ dudes if you swing by the Cryptek once you are down a model or two. Quantum Shielding is a god send, and has kept my Stalker alive for forever. The DA just lacks the mobility to make their weapons profile that much better to field.
If you want to field both, you are a mad man, but I like your moxxy. Field a Gauss Pylon instead.

The scythes are sort of a must with the lychguards as it actually allows you to deposit them 3'' away from an enemy turn 2, it does however need to survive that initial round.

What bugs me the most is how the Lychguard and Praetorians have the same statline and the same model; but only one of them have the 10'' move and immunity to Morale loss.

Don't break my heart again. At least, as far as I have been told, we are getting individual rules for each dynasty like those poster-boy Space Marines and their sub-factions.

I have played in a few $50 buy-in tournaments and I have not had or seen a real issue with custom models. Especially if they are not pure wiziwig. I played against a guy who custom modeled Tau because he didn't like how their droids looked. Plus the Destroyer and HD are extremely close. You might have to replace that gun arm and put that spine(?) thing over its shoulder. But I believe in you, anon.

>>54563455
Deposit them 3" away? Are you talking about a croissant or Obyron? I hope you aren't implying the pyramid.

>Doesn't need to survive that initial round
I know what you mean, but how you are saying it implies that the scythes are effective even if the unit dies without swinging. Losing a couple of dudes, sure, but are you feilding 5 or 10 or something inbetween?

Absolutely. 100% agree. Praetorians were the NOT!Pariahs introduced to us as a jet-pack unit, because every arms needs to neatly fill in every niche type (SM has it so everyone else has it). But, instead of leaving the Pariahs alone and introducing the Praetorians separately we get this.

Don't forget the Lychguard can eat a wound for your characters!... within 3"...

Duncan is a painter not an artist, unless you're memeing. I honestly think we could get GW to rethink their design of him if enough people comment. Plus The Lion. They'll probably come up with some bullshit like 'oh their hair changes balbhalbha'. Like fuck sake.

>>54563540
Nothing. In the fluff he's awesome apart from when Girlyman makes him the Emperor and Sanguinius goes emo. But that's post Mind Fuck so might explain it. but in the fluff he's described as insanely attractive, like cut from marble, so beautiful that even Fulgrim in all his finery and makeup and shit couldn't hold a candle to him which infuriated Fulgrim.

Sadly with the way BL is going, I expect this to all be fucked up one way or another.
