How does this sound as a fluff for a snowflake OC chapter sound; just kicking around an idea really.

You know how the Minotaurs have their close asssociation with the High Lords, and there are other nominally independent Chapters that have ties to groups like the Ad Mech, Ecclesiarchy or Inquisition? I was thinking of a Chapter that has a working relationship with the Officio Assassinorum. Nothing as formal or overt as the Chapters mentioned above, but periodically the Chapter Master gets coded requests to perform military actions in certain sectors against certain targets; these actions happen to make it easier for an assassin to reach their target (by diverting defenses, causing distractions, drawing commanders into the open etc). In return, periodically the Chapter finds itself with "unrequested" auxiliary sniper assistance, or that the enemy backline has been torn to pieces by unknown assailants.

Basically I like Marines and Assassins, and while I know I don't NEED a reason to field them together, the concept appealed to me.

One of the biker squads, the two blastmasters will honestly do more for their points than 3 bikers. Any points left over should be able to afford an extra Noise Marine with a sonic blaster, after that if you have any left over points you can always sprinkle some heavy weapons into your cultists.
Also yes they are so worth it, they were good at 28 points, they're fucking amazing at 20 points.

>Finally, you may have noticed more Adeptus Astartes around than usual! You’ve been lucky enough to be reinforced by a few experimental new companies of the Ultramarines – you’ll recognise them by their blue-green armour (specially coloured to camouflage them against the jungle, of course) and their scaly cloaks (made of the mutant enemies of the Imperium they hate so much). Don’t trouble your Commissar if you spot such a Space Marine moving around at night into “restricted” areas – as the Emperor’s finest warriors, they have absolute permission to go wherever they want and do as they please, and you should endeavour to follow any commands they give.***

The "Talons of The Emperor" box is basically a premade 1000pts list that has a bit of everything, custodes for elite melee+sisters for psyker support+landraider for anti-armor+dreadnaught for hordes. All you need is an HQ of your choosing (would recommend an inquisitor for maximum personalization)

Well, "Critical" means "On", so that wouldn't be the most impressive job. Also, there's about seventy layers of safety cutoffs you'd have to circumvent before you could force a meltdown or Prompt Critical, so it may not be that simple.

"Blow it up with a bomb" does tend to turn it off, though. Can't imagine you'd need to do anything more than that.

If you breach the reactor chamber while its running with a bomb, at the very least you're going to irradiate the entire ship irreparably.

My point is that it's a lot of effort to keep the reactor from accidentally killing everyone, setting a bunch of superhumans against it with that goal should do the trick. Especially when the 40k reactor is the size of the Empire State Building and can rip holes in dimensions.

>The word was originally two Latin terms, "locum" meaning in place of, and "teneris" meaning holding, together the phrase applied to anyone "holding in place of" someone else. Over time the word "locum" evolved into the French word "lieu", which is pronounced in French as it is spelled. It is possible that when the English heard the French pronounce the compound word lieutenant, they perceived a slurring which they heard as a "v" or "f" sound between the first and second syllables. Most English speaking nations, with the exception of the United States, still pronounce the word as though there is an "f" in it.

So /tg/ I'm trying to get back into 40k. I'm mainly interested in conversions/painting/guys.

I'm torn between Genestealer Cults and Renegades and Heretics. I may someday play but the fluff and the aesthetics are my main thing.

It's not just a question of easiest to bring back, it's what will sell and what the people in the design team are interested in. Dark Angels and Space Wolves are very popular compared to most other first founding chapters (probably more popular than UM). So chances are they will get their primarchs first.

Just bought 2 of these, have some pretty awesome conversion ideas for my genestealer cult.

Was going to use them as Tauros Venators but now I realize theyre too big and well armored. They're also more narrow than goliaths/taurox (fitting 10 guys in either of them is bad enough, don't want to use something smaller even if only slightly).

So what do I use them as? Has to be IG or genestealer, has to be fast-ish, nothing super tough or with a transport capacity higher than 5 or so.

What the fuck, Admech. Massive orbital Forge World battlestation with half the surface area of an entire planet. WHY DO YOU NOT MAKE NOTHING BUT THESE, THAT'S AMAZING. That would make the Phalanx and probably Abbadon's flagship it's bitch pretty easily if size correlates at all to power, and it's full of murderbots and murderbot factories.

Or it just deemed the whole thing not worth their while, took the Skitarii and left the grounded forges to their thing. Would explain the complete lack of Skitarii corpses, techpriests or many menials. Probably a good idea given how long it took Ryza to shrug off their WAAGH and how they generally are huge century-long endeavors for Imperial coalitions like on Armageddon.

It's not like it takes the Admech long to set up regular manufactorums, and the whole Titan thing would probably be mostly a matter of knowledge and having the right tools given building a big shed to make the thing in isn't the greatest challenge.
>>
>>55140224
It's 1:48, but venator is tiny in every size comparison I can find. I might be surprised when I get the model, but I think it might be bigger and bulkier enough that it just won't look right. Although I'll probably remove the turret from at least one of them which might help (thinking cult armored ambulances or something)
Thanks for the response btw

Here is a good example of how a paint job can affect a model.

There's no question that the skill with which the painter on the left is far behind that of the eavy metal painter, but the eavy metal painter had tried to cram so much shit on Guilliman's face, it genuinely looks cartoonish and odd. Guilliman's face looks old, yet also young: he has dark crows feet and nasolabial creases, but his lips are painted with a glossy effect. It's fucking retarded to look at. The painter on the left does away with that shit and paints softer shades on the face, making it look much more natural.

Morty's model will look fine when a competent artist with true understanding of colour theory (instead of just googling "completementary colours for green; oh look purples and pinks! i'll go with those! this was easy.") and an "eye" gets a hold of it.

Forge Worlds are big, there's usually a few dozen titans in a Legio. If they had to lose one to save another five then they would, and it was mentioned in the dex that the Skitarii from there recently show an unwillingness to retreat, maybe because they were forced to before.

Also, one million Orks shouldn't really have been a problem for a Forge World with tens of millions of Kataphrons alone and a population in the dozens of billions, and that million Orks shouldn't have really given a damn about that many Space Marines. Writers being retarded about scale again, even if it's slightly excused by the fact that they hadn't really thought about Forge World defences.

That's not how the Mechanicus work, Titans are pretty much the most holiest examples of technology to them, made in the Omnisiah's own image. They would never just abandon one.

I get that you're butthurt your fav faction didn't have much of a showing in the game, but that doesn't mean you have to come up with idiotic fanfiction that doesn't even fit the lore.

Admech can be pragmatic too. Hell, they're known for cold logic in these regards, throwing away maniples to get information on enemy weapons. Leaving behind a single Titan to prevent losing the output of a Forge World wouldn't be too insane, especially since they DO have the capability to fly away and almost completely cut their losses. We don't see a single dead Skitarii other than a couple scared workers talking rumours, which would fit with them retreating.

>>55140600

Maybe a very few of them. Most are Orky custom-builds, but a looted Titan would probably rate Gargant at least, and Stompas are WAY more common than Titans.

>>55140626

All technology is holy and in the Omnissiah's image, that's the point. Titans more so, yes, but not to a degree that they're willing to lose an entire planet as well as the lore for making new Titans. In Titanicus they occasionally wrote Titans off as dead rather than redirect scarce troops to protect them, and in Master of Mankind they were convinced to abandon a Warlord Titan in the Webway rather than hold for it to be disassembled and transported.
What's more idiotic as a headcanon to fill gaps, that the Graian Crown was not present for some reason and millions of Skitarii fought an Ork WAAAGH to defend the Titan and were killed without leaving a single recording or corpse near the Titan they're defending or that they chose to retreat aboard their canonically warp-capable space city to save the rest of their resources?

If you've got a dude with the Character and Chaos keywords, you can summon units of Daemons in.

Just get some hoverboard riding radical Sorcerers or any Character that's fast and has wings and zoom them up the board to place everything you've held in reserve. Works well enough for slower models like a lot of Nurgle stuff.

For 480pts you get 100 wounds with a 4++. (20 Pinks, 40 Blues, 40 Brimstones)
And at -1 To Hit you summon the blob in the middle of the board. Have them surround something in melee. And just Split around to grab more units / Objectives while all your Heralds/Exalted Flamers/Daemon Princes walk around immune to shooting as the blob is the closest and the blob is locked in melee.
