Thing is they're not being fluffed as Assassins, they're a pack of Skitarii and Admech junior Magi and commanders. I'm just worrying that since Assassins are really nice now people would think running the whole lot would be cheesy, especially since the Callidus will be running with a bunch of melee dudes and there'll be a lot of Turn 1 nonsense occurring.

Also previous thread: >>55430206

Reposting from previous thread:

Played yesterday with some friends.

When I played the Tau player he wanted to deepstrike 9" away from my predator upwards on a pice of terrain with the top about 11" from the predator. We got into a debate wether or not you could do that.

So is it yes or no on the above?

What are secret death elf techniques to deal with conscripts, Boyz, and horrors?

>>55433227
He can deepstrike his guys anywhere he wants so long as its 9" away from enemy units

>>55433199
I mean you aren't wrong, considering that chaos holds a dissenting opinion to the imperium.

>>55433171
Keep in mind that "Eldar" and "Dark Eldar" are still the common "human" names for them. So they're still canon in the setting. Aeldari, Drukhari, Ynnari and Asuryani are styled as the proper elven names for those factions. It's a bit like low gothic and high gothic of Space Marines and Adeptus Astartes.

>>55433247
Yes.

What's this about the DG smacking Huron around now?

>>55433240
Even if it's upwards?

>>55433247
Yes, why wouldn't it?

Oh fuck there's 2 threads now

>>55433260
Mort himself is the one doing the smacking I believe.

Take a tapemeasure and draw a straight line from the enemy unit he wants to drop next to, to the point he wants to deep strike onto
If the distance is 9" or more its fine

Well for one that means that jumppacks that has fly can get a 2" charge from deepstriking giving a big advantage over the other player.

Yup
He did say that its an old list so we can assume it was made pre-squattendum

>>55433333

You know, Mortarion's kinda hard to make work without having some allied sorcerers cast warp time on him.

I imagine the case will be the same with Magnus when he loses access to the Dark Hereticus discipline.

Can I dissembark after summoning?

>>55433385
Yeah, and the reverse.

>>55433381

Just theory crafting what could be good, laying out game plans for map control all of that is super fun.

Right now, soulburst actions. They make 8th edition fun. I don't know why people play other armies.

Why Black Library novels must change fluff in worst way possible?

90s chaos sculpts absolutely requiring a middle finger be extended or weaponized on all power fists, chain fists and daemon prince claws. It was so classic 90s edge and so surprisingly self-aware of GW at the time.

>>55433500
2 years or more

>>55433496
The setting or the hobby?

From the setting, I like Chaos. Its contradictory in a way that makes sense, if you pardon the contradiction.

The hobby? I like the social aspect of it. I've not made friends or anything yet, but since I started 3 months ago I've really enjoyed talking to store staff, regulars and even guests. I gave advice to some guys yesterday who were unsure how to start the hobby with their kids and I spoke their language so they felt more secure to talk etc.

>>55433273
Looks like it could either be REALLY fun to play against/as or not fun to play against at all.

>>55433523

>>55433533
And now it mocks us as chaos still needs new sculpts.

>>55433568
Audiobooks are decent if you commute to work every day. I drive an hour to and from work four days a week, that's eight hours I basically spend doing fuck all nothing. An audiobook at least lets me enjoy a book during that time, although I don't think I'd buy a 40k audiobook.

>>55433556
Alright, then enjoy your pewter Paul Stanley faces.

Why doesn't the Baneblade ignore movement penalty for heavy weapons? Why doesn't the Chimera have firing ports? Why does GW have to tease us with IG tanks that are almost decent, but not quite?

Just why?

Almost all vehicles got hit by that shit, no more shoot and scoot without penalties unless you're using a sicaran or something.

>>55433496
How each faction is really unique to itself. Lot's of other settings, especially in wargaming tend to have factions that are just really similar to each other even if there aren't many of them but 40k happens to have dozens of factions and each with personalities of their own.

>>55433601
Wait for the codex I guess.

>>55433595
This right here. Im in the exact same spot only its just 45 min for me. Sometimes you dont want music.

>>55433626
It's literally the largest normal tank in the imperium. A vehicle 1/4 the size is stable enough to ignore the penalty but somehow the Baneblade isn't? Come on now.

And will Iron Hand get codex?

So when are the Death Guard plastics coming? Kinda stupid to release a Codex without minis

So we all know lot's of 40k is based off of Fantasy, is this list correct on what fac is based on what fac?:
Orks: Orcs
Gretchin: Goblins
Craftworld: High Elves
Dark Eldar: Dark Elves
Necrons: Tomb Kangz
Chaos: Chaos (duh)
Old Ones: Lizard Men? (maybe?)

Imperial Guard seems to have a shit ton of races added to their ranks as abhumans:
Normal Imperial Guard: Empire
Squats: Dwarves
Ratlings: Halflings
Ogryn: Ogres
Beastmen: Beastmen

Any other based off factions I missed or were wrong about?

Old ones are in Fantasy too, Anon. They made the Lizardmen.

>>55433668
What I would do to fix this is give most vehicles 1 better ballistic skill.

Tbh it only makes sense; the vehicle probably would allowthe firer to shoot more accurately than if they just shouldered and gun and fired it.

>>55433672
>Will Ferrus return?
Maybe. Decapitation won't prevent GW from selling a model.
>And will Iron Hand get codex?
Very unlikely. They don't even have a special character.

>>55433672
>Will Ferrus return?
Yes. As the leader of the Black Legion.
>And will Iron Hand get codex?
Lol No.

>>55433715
Captain Smashfucker should become a canon IH special character.

Maybe not with that exact name though.

>>55433732
GW will stretch the releases till new codexes.

>>55433601
So Guardsmen who want to play mechanized/armored regiments suffer. I expect the codex to nerf infantry shenanigans and keep vehicles just as bad if not worse.

>>55433723
GW AGM says they're moving away from 'big releases' and doing staggered ones so that revenue is stable and you constantly have 'something to buy'.

Might mean after the DG and Primaris stuff dies down, that they start releasing 1 or 2 things for random armies instead of only releasing things in massive batches.

>>55433761
Well the thing is they nerfed razorwing flocks and brinstone horrors with the FAQ but have done nothing for IG. Makes me think they dont have a problem with what IG are doing right now. I do hope we get some changes to vehicles because they need some serious buffs right now.

BL has been on Amazon UK for a while, it's just coming stateside now. Audiobooks in general are also pretty pricey. I guess the thinking is that they charge .99 for a 3 minute song, so a 10 hour audiobook is worth 20 bucks.

The price on the audio dramas is roughly the same though, and sometimes those are only 10 minutes. Fuck that.

Am I the only one who doesn't like the tentacles and mutations on the Death Guard? I feel like the Nurgle aesthetic should be more death and decay (rotted flesh, pulsing pustules, open sores, exposed innards, bloated bodies) than mutations (tentacles, extra mouths, big ol' spikes).

>>55433940
They're a pretty solid mix of both right now. Honestly if you deal with chaos on a regular enough basis you probably get used to teeth and tentacles.

Any thoughts on this Nurgle Daemons list? One of the Daemon princes is from the death guard book so he can be warlord and take a relic, it also allows him to buff the blight drones who are both taking plague spitters. It makes up a battalion, supreme command and outrider detachment for 8 CPs.

The idea is the Daemonprinces each pair off with a set of drones for mobile cover and do most of the work. The nurglings are area denial and for engaging enemy armour. And the rest are a resilient blob for central map control. I know it's not amazing, it's difficult to do anything spectacular with Nurgle Daemons, but reasonable?

Do plastic Cataphracii Terminators have any options in the box??

I know I won't get much sympathy for this but I really dislike having to take a special character to play Ynnari. It really messes up my whole 'my dudes' fluff.

>>55434057
Ah the doc didn't save, both plague drone units have banners and instruments.

>>55433940
The new Death Guard line are my favourite models that GW has ever released but different strokes for different folks. They've always been the most outwardly warpfucked legion.

>>55434081
So convert a proxy for the character, give it a name and paint it as your dudes. Done.

>>55434081
I feel the same about Yarrick.
Kinda wish I could shift the rules to a "my dude" with the same points.

>>55434024
Belly mouths are athing from old nurgle

Why Morty is using phosphex? This is flame weapon.

>>55434081
It wouldn't be such a big deal if there was any gameplay reason to NOT take Ynnari. Soulburst is fucking busted in the hands of an experienced player.

>>55433462
>That dog is gonna be huge
Yeah, we thought so, too. Turns out she didn't grow that big, she just has huge paws.

>>55434012
Well they have said that Tsons actually in the lineup for a codex soon so i dont know about that, like the nerfs were pretty quick for them but guard are still sitting there with 3ppm Conscripts.

Check the FAQ my man - it is a requirement.

>>55434081
Well the Yncarne kind of makes it okay, since it can manifest almost anywhere.

>>55434105
Morty has always been using Phosphex, since it's just about the deadliest thing in 30k. It's poisonous, has huge AP and lights enemies up like fireworks. Problem is that somewhere between 30k and 40k a Tech Priest destroyed the Phosphex STC, so now Phosphex Bombs are incredibly rare relics, so he's the only one with the privilege of employing that stuff these days.

>>55434120
Yarrick is dead but he doesn't give a fuck. Just got back up the same as always and kept right on going.

>>55434105
>why is the master of the chemical/biological warfare legion using a weapon so horrific that the adeptus mechanicus destroyed their own stockpiles of it

>>55434105
He remembers when they burned his men with it and wants to try it on the enemies.

Or is the only thing that keeps nurglings away.

>>55434145

Fair point - I built my list around the smaller cost of Yvraine and haven't really messed with Yncarne.

Its also worth noting that I think the characters are mechanically good - I just don't like the named character requirement.

>>55434147
Yes he was using phosphex bombs, but now he is plague rotting shit, flame weapons like phosphex should be not nice th him since it's killing all maggots and bacteria.

>>55434147
>implying Inquisitors can't ask to ship them to a planet surface they dont like anymore

Take a look, it's in the fluff.

So there is a rules discussion about whether or not Morty's pistol actually does anything. There is a reading of pistols that states that is must be fired at the closest target (I read that to say that restriction is only applied when firing in close combat).

i want to play imps but can't be arsed to paint loads of models. How viable is a tank based army? i've never played a game yet but intend to when I finish my current army.

>>55434192
Yeh, but that's Exterminatus-tier only, not a day-to-day thing (at least it SHOULDN'T be but I guess this is the Imperium).

>>55434120
I think commisars count as high command. At least lord commisars would. So yarrick is sure to have had rejuvenat

>>55433276
Wow, that's lame as shit.

>>55434090
>They've always been the most outwardly warpfucked legion.
And when the dust settles we all know which legion is inwardly most warpfucked.

>>55434219
Fairly viable. Space Marine Predators are good. So are Tank Commanders/Pask in Leman Russes. Some of the FW tanks are neat too.

So currently my only way of getting drones is to buy Dark Imperium boxes where I don't even need half the stuff?

>>55433330

Whatre you guys working on?

>>55434156
I love the fact that the guy who destroyed the phosphex STC got killed with phosphex afterwards. Oh the irony.

>>55434245

There's clearly going to be a kit coming out sometime in the near future. They've shown the ones with the other options already.

>>55434222
Gotcha, just: he's not the only one. And if we count books and rpgs, it's rare but still used. Inquisitors, rogue traders and criminals dont give a fuck.

>>55434185
Morty doesn't give a fuck. The Plagueburst Crawler's ammo is explicitly so deadly that not even Nurgle's diseases can fester in spots that were under heavy bombardment from them and yet not only did Morty design them like that, he also made them crewed by Daemons, just as a fuck-you to them. Nurgle Daemons are explicitly said to hate those things.

>>55434192
Certainly, but the stuff is finite and Morty is the sort of daddy who takes your toys away and then plays with them himself. That's the reason he uses them but the rest of the Death Guard don't. The whole reason they're lobbing "brittleglass grenades" out of those Blight Launchers is probably because Morty is too stingy with the phosphex as well.

Skarbrand was suffered mutual destruction with an Avatar in GS 2. A short time later, we see him fighting Girlyman like he wasn't destroyed in GS 3.

Question about Typhus' Destroyer Hive pistol.

Says it always hits on 5+ irrespective of modifiers, even on Overwatch.

Does that mean 5+ INSTEAD of his regular BS, or does that mean it just can't be reduced beyond 5+?

>>55434437
Okay, but having BS2+ also tells you that he always hits on 2+ with shots.
Which 'always' takes priority?

>>55434463
Tim Curry.

>>55434469

Based on the Dark Reaper FAQ - I'm going to assume he hits on a 5+ with his Destroyer Hive.

>>55434478
You're right, Tim Curry is probably still alive.

>>55434364
If they are making DG specific versions there are 9 characters

>>55434469
1. The rulebook section for Hit Roll under Resolve Attacks in the Shooting Phase section never uses the word "always" in the wording for resolving a unit's shooting attacks.
2. Even if it did, Codex supersedes rulebook.

>>55434488

Fuck I just got back from a game against that guy at our store. He brought 200 conscripts.

What the dick do I do as a ynnari player? I want to beat this before the inevitable nerf.

>>55434585
Yeah, they're gonna look great once I'm done with them. I've got a big bag full of their axes and fist weapons now though and I don't know what to do with em. I was thinking of maybe giving the fists to some cultists down the line.

>>55434533

I doubt that very much so. I expect the only new characters we'll see are the new ones in the book (tallyman, putrifier, surgeon).

>>55434540

IIRC It's in either stepping in to a new edition or designer's commentary. Not in a position to flip through both right now.

>>55434257
Nice conversions, are they converted as Nobs?

I haven't been paying attention to the campaign lately, did Morty lose or did they fudge the number for a tie and make it so he can fight Gully on Maccrage?

>>55434615
Lion, Vulkan, Russ and Khan all make sense. Dorn's "death" also wouldn't be too hard to wave away. It's Ferrus Manus or Sanguinius that would require fluff fuckery.

>>55434673
The Konor has been spared from immediate destruction and is in Imperial hands.

>>55434682
Khan could get shat out now with the cicatrix maledictum.
He's not that relevant, tho.

>>55434673
You didn't actually think smurfs would lose anything did you?

>>55434705

However the world that once had the astropathic relay is now a daemon world, which is bad news bears for everything nearby

>>55434707
No. Wait. I got it wrong. Russ went into the warp to killmaimbite, Kahn went into a webway to go fast, right?
So Russ is a strong possibility.

He's more relevant, too.

>>55434120

Gotcha, thanks. It's in the Stepping Into a New Edition.
The example they use is for Wound rolls, not hit rolls, but it's probably the same.

In a game all about your dudes, why do manchildren flock to it to discuss actual gary Stu Supermen made up by bad authors?

Primarchs were a mistake.

>>55434790
You need to tell apart someone who enjoys the game from a manchild

So casting Smite with Aspiring Sorcerers seems like a terrible idea because of Perils

>Perils
>take d3 mortal wounds which spill over to the rubrics

I'd just measure the 9" range horiztonally. Just like deployment zones. Else he's technically too close and nothing should be within 9" of movement.

I like rick and morty for the most part, it seems like they do shit like this just to draw in the lowest common denominator, or maybe it's that most people who watch r&m are dumb stoners. Or both

>A lot of them are paedophiles over there

Honestly thought this was a meme until I popped over there to check out their /got/ threads during the trainwreck that was Season 7. Boy was I wrong.

It's gotten worse in recent years. Mods really should have banned CUNY threads.

I was getting some Bullet Club stuff at hot topic yesterday and my gf was pointing at a pickle rick hat and was confused why I didn't want it.
I like rick and morty but the pandering and shitty merchandising catch phrases like that are why I don't bring it up in public, same as Naruto.

My first meeting for the wargaming club (let me be honest, it's mostly just 40k) I started is tomorrow, and I was wondering if you guys had any recommendations for any small- scale (The meetings can be no more than an hour) games of 40k. I've made about twenty to thirty "20 power level" lists out of the miniatures I have in my collection, but I remembered how GW sometimes makes fum"mini-games" out of their existing models for special events at their stores; such as the 20 poxwalker challenge, a game where players bring their best hq model to face off against a unit of 20 poxwalkers, the player to survive the longest rounds wins. Are there any more "mini-games" that you can think of?

>Kill Team GW
>Kill Team HoR
>Skirmish
>Making lists out of SC and Boxes
>500 pt lists
>Playing the board games like Betrayal at Calth and Burning of Prospero
>Necromunda coming out soon

Hellhammer best Baneblade model so far?
2d6 shots with a demo cannon and auto cannon 4 lascannons for 655pts seems pretty alright,

Last stand stuff like that, maybe with a squad vs endless poxwalkers, nids, etc.

Kill the VIP type game, with a civilian or what have you that must be guided to a specific spit.

Not sure about what else you could do.

I was disappointed that very little actual Game of Thrones discussions go on in /tv/, I was expecting/hoping for /40kg/ style threads.

Horde spam is making my games unfun. Just finished 2 games today. First one was conscripts, the second one was boyz.

Got wrecked both games. What do I do?

A few years ago, when the show as good and worth discussing, the general was fun. This past season, and really the last 3, the general has reflected the show: mindless and terrible.

Well?

Combat patrol!

400 points, two troops, one fast attack, one elites CAD. Share dedicated transports, and a Sargent gets to be Warlord. No +2 saves, and limit the toughness and wounds max. Tyranids get one monster. No deep strike, 4x4 board. Reduced psykers abilities, thousand sons might have to be tweaked.

Lots of stuff you can tweak, like custom mini HQs, like veteran Sargent's with an extra wound and bought outside the squad.

That's virtually identical to 40K editions. Though if the comparison holds, 8th season of GoT will be much better than the last one, though not as great as the early ones.
