>>46003414

That art is fucking atrocious.
>>
>>460037314

I tabled him, so nothing too bad happened. He wasn't running any wraithknights or bikes with scatter lasers, so it wasn't a brutal list by any means.

No, I was talking about what Calgar and every other special character does when they meet a Avatar of Khaine.

Brutally kill it in a single turn.
>>
>>46003860
Did he have anything that could even threaten Scoria? Sounds like he was just running an aspect warrior list or something?
>>
>>46003876

15 wraith guard, but I think he was trying to be nice. He brought 5 of the flamers, 5 of the axe and shields, and five of the cannons.

All in transports.

So, who plays Knights? What is the fluff behind your Knights? Do you run them alone or with allies?
>>
>>46004358
One day I will have a six-knight army exclusively to play against other people fielding all knights. I'm holding out hope that Forgeworld create a way for you to mix and match Cerastus weaponry in the rules before I dive in, however. I'd love to be able to swap around melee weapons on my dudes, but I doubt it'll be coming anytime soon.
>>
>>46004358
SO far I have a Crusader with converted plasma Obliterator, Paladin, and Atrapos.

The plan is to get Styrix and other Cerastus.

The fluff is still basic but the premise is that the Baron of a House led a campaign to reclaim a system but it was full of drone knights(maegera/styrix, some experimental cerastus/questoris) that ambushed them. Through sheer attrition the house was destroyed.

The Baron survives, takes refuge in a buried manufactorum of some sort and finds an Atrapos with basic colors of a lost house and no personal or campaign livery.

He discovers the drone-knights are slaved through this Atrapos' animus. He then bonds with the machine and takes over the system. He later goes on to collect roaming freeblades to supplement his drone-knight army.

So far I've only used them as allies. My Atrapos is still a WIP too.

>>46004385
I want to make a Baron Cerastus; Lancer with Cannon instead of gauntlet.

extremely speshul snowflake DAoT knight found in stasis by muh doodz, the throne has been replaced by a vat which the pilot never leaves, rendering him functionally immortal, but because he spent so long in stasis he's got no memories of his life before being woken up.
Has rolled with his legion (DA) so long he's effectively one of them and basically acts as a gargantuan dreadnought.
TT wise he's just a Knight Warden with a reaper converted to emphasise the sword over the chain part of chainsword.

So to avoid stupid meme fights and other nonsense I got a question.

What is the typical 30k knight ally? Fluff wise and what people see a lot on the table top. Has FW maneuvered the fluff so their chicken walkers are supposed to be common or something? And are Knights used as gap filler in lists as much in 30k as they are thrown into lists in 40k (they still do that right)?

One of the few members of Clan Avernii who managed to escape Istvaan, Hae'gar Dramson was part of the upper leadership of the clan. Advising his commanders about all things esoteric and unnatural, Hae'gar was a psyker of some skill. Since the fall of his primarch and the shattering of the iron hands, it has taken its toll on him. Since he was found by Malcador, he traverses the Galaxy in Falsehood cloaked looking for his brethren and righting wrongs as he can...and killing Emperors children.

Last chart should be reworked so you don't have to keep rerolling. Make it something like
Apothecary
Tech Marine
Consul (if rolled roll to see what type)
Assault Marine
Tactical Marine
Recon Marine
Legion Unit 1 (bodyguard)
Legion Unit 2 (another unit)
Legion Unit 3 (another unit)

Not bad, actually. It looks like an eye lens!

Don’t use a tiny brush; the tip dries out too quickly (as in, it dries somewhere between the palette and the mini). Use a normal brush, but a new one that still has a straight tip, wet your paints, and attack it once more. It should be easier to overpaint and then correct with white later. If you’re just barely achieving that, stop there. If you can add more detail, highlight the lower corner and darken the upper (outer) corner. Correct with white, then dab on some gloss coat.

The smaller something is, the lighter/brighter a shade you should use. It’s some sort of scale effect.

Guys what a good legion for someone who loves beautiful, artsy armour?

I have ruled out Blood Angels, as with them it seems to boil down to "cram as many Sanguinary Guard jump packs as you can on everything and then paint the trim gold and call it a day."

Also I'm not a fan of their look.

So obviously there is Emperors Children next, but are there any other legions that can stand out aesthetically?

Two questions /hhg/

1. Did the Imperium have any concept of human rights, or does that concept not mesh with the fact that the absolute monarch can send the Space Rapists or fur fetishists to murder you if you don't do what he wants?

Yes. It's not Chaos/Orks/Dark Eldar. Also this will derail the thread, hope you're happy.
>2. What are space marine toilets like, could a human crew member drown in one if they fell in it?
It's in the power armor and waste products get converted to a tasteless paste for marines to eat. Think twice before you go, Chaos as you can find yourself trapped within your armor forever.

2 methods for the price of one:
ALPHA LEGION

Metal is layered up to runefang steel, second is two layers of guilliman blue, third is waywatcher green layer, and fourth is one final layer of guilliman blue and then details. Takes a while but pretty easy.


1. AIRBRUSH WITH THINNED LEAD BELCHER/ IRON BREAKER (50/50 MIX)
2. AIRBRUSH FROM TOP OF MODEL WITH THINNED RUNFANG STEEL
3. MIX A LITTLE TAMIYA CLEAR GREEN WITH TAMIYA CLEAR BLUE (25/75 MIX) AND AIRBRUSH OVER THE MODEL IN 2 COATS
4. AIRBRUSH ARMOUR PANELS WITH TAMIYA CLEAR BLUE. BLENDING FROM MIDDLE OF FIGURE DOWN, SO THE STRONGEST BLUE COLOUR IS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PANNELS
5. AIRBRUSH FROM THE MIDDLE UPWARDS WITH TAMIYA CLEAR GREEN
6. USING AN AIRBRUSH BLEND A HIGHLIGHT ON THE HIGHEST PANNELS (HEAD, SHOULDER PADS, TOP OF BACKPACK) WITH RUNEFANG STEEL WITH A TINY AMOUNT OF LOTHERN BLUE, EXTREMELY THINNED DOWN.
7. APPLY THINNED COAT OF TAMIYA CLEAR BLUE OVER THE HIGHLIGHT AND BLEND INTO THE SURROUNDING AREA.
8. USING A BLUE GLAZE, DRAG DOWN THE WHOLE MODEL ALLOWING IT TO SETTLE IN THE DEEPEST AREAS.
9. SILVER – BASECOAT WITH LEADBELCHER
10. WASH WITH NULN OIL
11. HIGHLIGHT WITH LEADBELCHER IN STRIKING MOTIONS TO CREATED CHIPPED AND WEATHER APPEARANCE
12. HIGHLIGHT WITH IRONBREAKER

But why not Emperor’s Children? Phoenix Guard have been fixed, and the models are awesome. And it sounds like a lot of people in your area want to go loyalist so there’s no point playing BA, UM, or AL.

The FW books also show fancy decorations on Word Bearers vehicles, and to a lesser extent power armor.

Look up "candy coat", especially by 1:24 car modelers. It doesn't have to be a Tamiya clear, but they make the best clears. They're also meant for airbrushes. Brushing MIGHT work if you dilute with rubbing alcohol instead of water, but if you're brushing you're better off using a different brand's clear acrylic. Again, look on paint shelves intended for model cars. (I wonder if GW glazes might have a similar effect?)

>>46018226
>human rights
Not really. FW describes the Emperor's rule as "harsh" and all indications are that the Imperial Truth was enforced violently. Not sure if there's much 30k fluff on it, but it sounds like psykers and mutants weren't treated well back then either. And you've got examples of planets under the leadership of the retired Imperial general that conquered them (like in book 4). That's generally not a recipe for human rights.

The Emperor thought humanity was in enough danger to make rights a low priority. That's always how it works.

one wonders if the Brazen Claws will actually turn out to be an offshoot of the Red Talon crew prior to officially becoming separate chapters in the Second Founding.

I mean, their biggest problem is older kits. With CAD, Making some true scale marines is easy as fuck with the new kits, just need to give some slightly longer legs, bigger torso and backpacks, that's it.

They could use that opportunity to make the old kits in plastic, turning them true scale, and rake in the profits.

There are a lot of hues of purple and they come across very differently. You could go more indigo and more saturated (less gray, which tends to make the purple look pastel). Or screw purple, do a late-Heresy black and pink scheme. I’m not 100% sure that they switched to their 40k scheme during the Heresy, but they could have.

You could also do the metallic thing.

it seems like the World Eaters, Death Guard, and Iron Warriors had the highest numbers of loyalists, at least proportionally. The World Eaters in particular had took so many casualties on both sides during the Loyalist Massacre that they were reported as barely above half strength IIRC.

The NLs may not have undergone a systematic purge, but between their increasingly deranged paranoia and psychotic recruitment pre-Heresy, infighting and assassinating each other during the Heresy they probably had very few actually willing to stand up and declare for the loyalist side.

But they aren't assigned equally,there aren't as many alpha psykers as there are non-psykers. That chart gives the marine a 75% chance of being above average, which makes no sense. Have the roll be something like D20 for actually being a psyker then roll a D100 for what type of psyker and alpha level psykers are only a 1% chance. Alpha psykers are like one in 10 billion or something crazy and this chart puts them at 1 in 12.

Its been established that Carcharodons are actually the descendants of a XIX predation fleet and are not actually Night Lords (or the Ashen Claws). But I was reading the part in book 6 about the Ashen Claws and the scouring of the Nostramo sector and I've come up with a theory.

The Blood Angels' reports from the moon base mention that the Ashen Claws looted everything including Night Lord progenoid glands. And later when investigating the crash site of the Shroud of Eventide the commanding officer remarks that there are not enough corpses at the crash site or in the nearby mass grave to account for all the crew a ship like that would have. He even remarks that some people are living in caves and shit, but "certainly not in numbers enough to account for the missing crew."

I think that some members of the crew of the Shroud of Eventide defected to go be space pirates with the Claws, or at the very least the Claws probably used that looted Night Lord geneseed to make new recruits."

Forge World knew people wanted Night Lord Space Sharks so they gave us a Raven Guard/ Night Lord Blackshield empire fighting a Second Crusade in the Ghoul Stars

>But I was reading the part in book 6 about the Ashen Claws and the scouring of the Nostramo sector and I've come up with a theory.

Stopped reading right there. Ashen Claws are simply another Predation Fleet. There was more than one. Corax exiled ALL Terrans that didn't die at Gate 42. That means he exiled THE ENTIRE RAVEN GUARD LEGION except for the ones he recruited/brought from his less violent worlds.

No need to apologise man, I'm sorry for coming across so aggressive. I was thinking something like 1 in 10/20 for actually being a useful psyker then D100 or something for what level. This allows a higher than average chance of the KE being a psyker while still retaining semi-realistic expectations regarding how often they occur. When I say useful I mean start the assignment at Iota then maybe stop at beta or even gamma as delta/gamma psykers are 1 in a billion and ''Unless discovered quickly, death or possession are common results of the untrained mind being unable to handle this level of mental energy.''

Yeah. I know. The Space Sharks are a chapter descended from a different predation fleet. The Claws are a different fleet that went rogue. I'm saying the Ashen Claws dropped their Legion identity and used other legion progenoids, and possibly marines to recruit.

Well, I was meaning post-Istvaan III. Word Bearers are mentioned to be purged heavily, as were the four other legions.

Out of the other four, Thousand Sons were small, but we know Blood Ravens at least. Alpha Legion... well, I won't even go there.

So that leaves Night Lords and Iron Warriors.

>Am I fucking terrible at expressing this or something?

Yes, because you failed to add some kind of conjunction or break between the two thoughts and instead strung them both together as if they were a continuation of each other.

It's sort of like if someone went "Hey you know how you said you want to fuck that hot chick from your math class? Well the other day I accidentally saw a horse vagina and I thought hey, I'd fuck that".

I'm probably the first to cringe at another japanese themed missing legion but this guy does it pretty damn well and fits it into the lore properly.

Is there any other missing legion project that has put in half the work as the Lightning Bearers legion has?

So I'm looking at my favored recasters prices, and realized that scimitar jetbikes cost the same as Sammael. Case and point with some minimal conversions, what would you think of a 9 man Sky hunter squadron of Sammael models /HHg/?

>>46020729
Yeah I clearly should have not have compared them to the Space Sharks. Although in my mind the two are thematically similar, I can see how mentioning Carcharodons and NL in the same post brings out the REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

I just hadn't seen anyone mention how the Ashen Claws are most likely assimilating other legions' marines and geneseed. I thought it was mildly interesting.
>>
>>46020973
Do you think just painting up the plasma coils to distinguish from plasma and HBolter would be suffecient, or would it be worth my while finding and greenstuffing new bitz in there?
The normal models don't have the bolt pistol modeled afaik and a paint job can distinguish combat blades from power weapons... Am I missing anything else?

Are jetpack Magos good?

I was thinking of making an Archmagos Malagra with a jetpack, paragon blade, maybe a rad-cleanser, and run him around with Ferrox Thallax as a beatstick. I think I like kitbashing Dark Magos together too much, it'd be good if I made some practical ones occasionally.

>Lightning Bearers

Wow that's a terrible name, even for Space Marine legion names.
>>
>>46021048

I think I've only seen one prior discussion about the Ashen Claws, one on an /hhg/ a week or so ago and the other on B&C.

It makes sense for a pseudo/loyal "Chaos" Warband to be a conglomerate of geneseed. Black Shields and Shattered Legions are already pretty much this except without the implantation. Geneseed homogenization isn't some new thing anymore with book 6.
>>
>>46021052
The weapons on the actual rider are secondary to the weapons on the bike, it may be worth sourcing a bunch of cheap land seeded heavy bolters and replacing the plasma cannon. That being said it does depend on whether your meta is filled with autists, if the differences were obvious and you pointed them out to me before we started I wouldn't mind them all being different painted plasma cannons.
>>
>>46021172
LGS is fairly chill, especially the HH guys, I was more looking for a personal opinion on the aesthetics, I'm on the fence for if it would be worth while making the conversion for a not super visible weapon if people are just going to glance at it for glow effects.
>>
>>46021280

I paint my plasma coils metallic. Usually bronze or silver. I like the way it looks compared to non-glowing colors or poorly done glows.
>>
>>46021341
I'm a sucker for the blue glow personally, except on my 40k AdMech who I go Brass for .
For now I'll asses the state of my bitz box, and see if any Hbolters would even fit without too much work, but I'm leaning towards just the paint effect as my laziness is catching up to my ambition as per usual.

Seems even the ultras lose their shit when they talk to daemons. Not sure why he would even really be a knight errant though. The voices tell him to do it? I thought the ultras stayed unified.

Garro doesn't become a GK founder. He most likely loitered around with the others who didn't become Grey Knights and laid the foundation of the Deathwatch. There are rumors that Death Guard loyalists did do that anyway.

>I wonder if GW glazes might have a similar effect

There was a guy in the WIP thread who got a really nice Alpha Legion armour colour by basing in Leadbelcher, layering on silvers, doing two coats of GW's blue glaze the one coat of green glaze. It looked really boss honestly. And importantly for someone like me, it doesn't need an airbrush. I imagine vehicles will be a PITA for him though.

>>46018883

Probably cause Gorgon Termi armor requires major cybernetics, probably hardwiring you into the armor. Also Mor reverse engineered it for his own clan, since he was in the one daddy didn't like.

>>46024341
he's just a dead 'ard bastard who used charisma as a dump stat and decided the best way to deal with fellow legionnaires who shit-talked him would be to call them up, whap them with a (iron) gauntlet, and then kill their ass in a duel.

No
Deathwatch is specified now as being formed by the last imperial fist to target xenos threats
The suggestion is he gets killed or possessed by nurgle when the death guard fall - but maybe the author changed his mind
We know Voyn got infected by nurgle pox and likely this will be a factor

>>46025347
personally I found it a rather silly relationship with very little substance to it. It was pretty clear McNeill dreamed it up out of nowhere to give Fulgrim (the book) a recurring theme and ending pathos, but the pair of them and their legions literally never struck me as behaving like friends except for when the book described them to my face as being friends. It didn't help that McNeill just threw the Iron Hands characters under the bus every time he wanted the plot to proceed forward.

Also I thought the origins for Fireblade and Forgebreaker were dumb. Ferrus and Fulgrim get into a competition to create the better weapon? Okay. Obviously the stylish duelist with the Phoenix sobriquet makes a fuck-off big hammer and the blunt, hard-edged smith makes a gilded blade. What? It would have made infinitely more sense for them to have been made as gifts from the outset. But then, I'm a grog who never liked the plot point of Ferrus having Forgebreaker to begin with, so take that as you will.

Could've been better if there had been more time to build the relationship, and maybe if we'd seen more of it before Fulgrim started losing Will saves to a sword thus turning all his interactions with Ferrus into bitching about him.

Probably Crysos Mortaug. One of just a couple of survivors of Isstvan III, his nickname within the Death Guard (before Betrayal) was "the Black Shield".

Tbh it wouldn't fit for Garro to become a GK but then he started having hallucinations of old dead marines and has accepted the emperor as a literal divine figure. He's obviously a late blooming psyker.
