Here's a map.

Is there anything special about which Land Raider I decide to run? Like does the Redeemer benefit from Salamanders chapter tactics? Crusader benefit from Imperial Fists chapter tactics?

>>46344714
Transport capacity? And I think the chapter specific special rules only apply to units with Chapter Tactics if I'm not mistaken.

>>46344790

So it really doesn't matter, as far as mechanics goes?

Hello all, new player here, I'm going to buy the Start Collecting! Skitarii box set, could I have any advice in regards to the game? I have pdfs of the Skitarii and Cult Mechanicus codices, as well as the 7th edition rules.

I'm afraid that I've never built nor painted a model, might I have some assistance in regards on how to do so?

I made a thread earlier, in case you'd wish to answer my questions there, instead of in here.

>>46344175

>>46344832
Well, certain Land Raiders may fit your force better than others, but it's nothing as clear cut as 'this one has flamers, take it with Salamanders', unless you're trying to be fluffy.

I think the only mechanical advantage one chapter has with Land Raiders is Black Templars, since their Crusader squads can take a Crusader as a dedicated transport, which gives it objective secured.

Redeemer has the best sponsons. Crusader has the best transport capacity and most useful sponsons. Regular is just bad and has mixed roles. LC sponsons are nice but you have zero capacity and why need AV14 assault transport for a long range tank? Just take Predators or Devastators or even Razorbacks nstead

>might I have some assistance in regards on how to do so?
/WIP/ threads could help you.

Remove mold lines, prime your model and thin your paints is the jist of it though.

Well, I don't know as many details about Ad Mech specifically, though for general advice, always plan out how you're going to assemble things before gluing, and try not to use too much.

For painting, it's often easier to plan out your color scheme and paint the individual pieces separately before gluing them. Always remember to prime first, and thin your paints so you're not just glopping it on heavily. If you want more detailed advice, the /wip/ thread has much more info about color schemes and painting methods, as well as some guides which might help.

Much as I love stormtroopers, I wish they'd do a bit on the deathwatch team that initially went to the mine.

>>46344922

I have one for my Carcharodons. It's not that great since it's not as strong as a Spartan or invisible deathstar or even a bunch of bikers when pushing into opponent's objectives, and it's very expensive to be rolling around in your own deployment capping objectives.

>>46344924

So my group is looking at getting into a mapped campaign as fuel for our weekly battles. We've never done it before and we don't know how we are going to do it.

Anyone know some good sources on how to go about running one? We wanna go the full shebang with moving armies around the maps, planetary bonuses etc etc. Things I've read are helpful, but usually designed for a few editions ago.

>>46345006

You sort of have to put them in a Drop Pod or some kind of transport. Stock DS is never an option for LC TEQ unless you just want to use them as a 175 point throwaway unit.

Sometimes you can pull off amazing things with them though like deep striking into multi level ruins, surviving, and charging successfully. Or if your opponent is retarded and lets you charge.

Do the adeptus mechanics belive in an afterlife?

New Necron player from last thread. Figured out a CAD I guess I will build towards instead of just running the two formations.
Destroyers seem really cool and my current Overlord with twenty warriors is pretty boring. Putting the warriors in Ghost Arks makes them way more durable and mobile and frees up my HQ to become a Destroyer lord.
I may want to bring back my triarch stalker just for another big gun because my list doesn't have too much high strength. (though it is all gauss so that could be okay)

I can't fit the Land Raider Mk IIb shown in IA10 in the fluffy CAD so I just swap out stuff to randomly bring in ~200 point units like Contemptors, Leviathan Dreadnoughts, or Land Raiders when I feel like using a model.

>>46345507
Nah when ultramar got invaded they did fuck all in the grand scheme. Something like 30 worlds were ransacked before it got stopped.

>>46345562
>>46345574
I-it's not like I want to join Chaos or anything. I just want a tech-themed fluffy army (Skitarii+IG+IK) that isn't hidebound to the retardation of Mars.
I also don't want to paint it red.

So I just got out of a game with an Imperial Fists player. I played guard.

Around the bottom of turn 2 he drop-podded a squad of Legion of the Damned onto my flank. I was NOT prepared for how tough those guys are.

He lost, but seemed to enjoy using them. What kinds of tactics besides DISTRACTION LotD are they good for?

>>46345580
Nah m8, in that case it was the chapters that seconded troops to the ultramarine's campaign.

>>46345599
>the self proclaimed 'brilliant tactician' rawbutt girlyman thought that 30 worlds in buttfuck nowhere ultramar, were more important than terra
sounds about right..

>>46345159
No, once they die they're soul is devoured by the void dragon

>>46345633

Mindfuck tactics?

>>46345633

They are just a T4 3++. The only reason they should even scare you is ignores cover and relentless heavy weapons.

>>46345623

There are a bunch of non red schemes for loyalist Mechanicus armies. Each Forge World has its own paint scheme.

>>46345662
It does?
So when I make my colour scheme for my Knight, I can just say that his partnered Forge World has the same colour scheme and I'm not totally blowing smoke out my ass?
Thanks, friend. I am not a fluff master.

>>46345650

Being honest, they did very little, but the 3++ caught me completely off guard when he saved through an entire Tempestus Command squad's worth of Hot-Shot volley guns.

Then they spent two turns completely failing to kill a single wyvern before killing one HWS in melee and dying to said MT command squad...in melee.

Still, though....he seemed to enjoy using them...

>>46345208
I'd separate out the destroyers into different squads. I'd also drop the spyder upgrades to get an invun on your lord.

>>46345683

Most Mechanicus-aligned Knight Houses use their Forge World allies colors.

>>46345571
True, but not by the Imperials.

>>46345686
They're a really fun unit but yeah they can only do so much even with all the fantastic stuff they have. Did he not have the FNP guy with them or something? They're one of those units you need to put points into to get anything out of them.

Another weird thing I've seen people use them for is AA, you bring a min squad and an ADL. Then when they turn up have them man a quad gun, spraying out ignores cover shells into the air on turn 3+.

If you have never build a Ghostarc, i suggest buying only 1, they are a real pain to build. (Tip: Paint the individual stages before glueing it together)
I wouls put the heavy destroyer alone, because you want it to fire at heavier targets, while the destroyers are more about killing softer targets.
Destroyer Lord goes with the Wraiths? Might work but slows them down a bit.

>>46345873

Neither.

>>46345873
both of those units actually have a use, so not really.
>:^)

>>46345873
Mechanically legion of the damned work more like 1k sons than anything else imperial, but they still don't have psychic support or fancy bolt rounds. You still have that niche at least.

>>46345868
What makes you think I was talking about Damocles?

>>46345873
One Thousand Sons are the loyalist version of One Thousand Sons.
You should instead ask what the loyalist version of Space Wolves is.

>>46345873
Sternguard are much more flexible.

I think that fluff wise Legion of the Damned is closer to plague marines than rubric marines

Can anyone attest to epidemius's usefulness? Even in a tallyband hes only buffing his unit(6' bubble is a joke) and while you can rack up the buffs with plegm bombardment the fact that hes stuck with a shitty loci means youre forced to take an additional herald for the actually useful FNP

>>46345917

No, you have to use the matching army for the formation. The symbol for that formation is KDK so it's KDK only unless it has italics in the rules saying it may also be taken in other armies.

Same way Blood Angels may not use vanilla formations like Skyhammer, but CAN use vanilla units like Contemptors because it has text saying it may be taken in other marine codexes.

>>46345930
So obviously I couldn't, say, roll the WL trait, but the rules (everything getting Counter-Attack, -2 on fear checks) still applies?

>>46345917
it is a daemonkin formation, not a daemon formation, but you can take it anyway

You can any number of formations and detachments in a battleforged army, and they do not all have to be from the same faction

As it happens, Daemonkin and Daemons are Battle Brothers, so there is no penalty for having a formation of Daemonkin fighting alongside formations or detachments of daemons.

>>46345948

If you make your Warlord from the formation, you will be a KDK army with KDK warlord traits. If you stick with your Daemons army and use your Daemon Warlord, you will be a regular Daemon army like usual, but with the Charnel Cohort also included in your army as a KDK detachment.

Stop thinking about your army as one thing. It's no longer like that. Each army is now multiple mini armies with the warlord determining the main detachment.

They can fuck shit up when taken in a squadron because they are so cheap in points (not in cash), they move super fast since they can move, run and charge an extra 3', have 5+ cover all the time, and can pour out load of wounds but they are not marine killers due to AP-. Theoretically they should be quite good against xeno armies because they usually have low toughness, worse armor saves, and lack of krak grenade

>>46346238
Seriously man, radium jezzails. 6 To Wound causes an extra 2 Wounds, and they're all AP2 thanks to the Sniper rule. It's just evil.

>>46345357
The map is only 2d when the galaxy is really 3d. In 40k reality the tau systems are much smaller and further away than can be realistically depicted on a 2d map, similar to how maps of earth are always inaccurate as well. The ultramarines haven't destroyed the Tau because in most of the fluff about the Ultramarines the tau are not viewed as an urgent threat, especially when compared to enemies such as chaos and the nids.

>>46346317
The wording of the rule says "a To Wound roll of 6 causes 2 wounds on the target unit", which means a 6 only gives you 1 extra wound, which is okay I suppose because both of those wounds are AP2 and precision shots

>>46346390
Precision shots are on the to hit roll.

>>46344714
No.
Dreadnought are the only vehicles that benefit from chapter tacs

>>46345446
But Ultima sagmentum is the one nearest the Tau.

Hey at least is free postage, I'm sorry you have to pay premium for this Australian bro.

So I'm looking at this black legion relic "The Eye of Night" and it's the 2nd hand chaos version of the orbital barrage that chapter masters get for free. I'm not sure if a single use infinite range s5 ap4 large blast (d3 haywire hits against vehicles) that ignores cover is worth 75 points.

>>46346595
>I'm not sure paying a bunch of points for something space marines get for free is worth it
that could be said of the entire CSM codex

>>46346595
D3 automatic penetrating hits against vehicles, m8. And its scatter gets reduced by BS, unlike the orbital bombardment. It being worth it depends on how much you value deleting most vehicles in one shot.

>>46346615
chapter master upgrade isn't free, man

>>46346595
>I'm not sure if a single use infinite range s5 ap4 large blast (d3 haywire hits against vehicles) that ignores cover is worth 75 points.

Orbital Bombardment is S10 AP1 bro.

75 points also gets C:SM a Damocles Rhino HQ addition which is a Rhino with re-rolls to reserve and an additional bombardment.

>>46346512
For what reason?

It's AU$55 on the main site.

Also to break up the shit posting a bit:

Australians make an insane amount of money relative to the rest of the world because the government sets up bartering committees for wages for pretty much every industry (essentially everybody has a union but a little more limited). Because of this everything costs a asshat and half because that guy at the counter makes $25/hr and the company needs to break a profit. Rent is almost a thousand dollars a month for a one bedroom apartment in a crack stack building. The models are actually relatively cheap when you consider a lot of other entertainment outlets cost a lot more (a video game brand new is almost $100 or more and beer costs around $15 for a six pack).

t. an American who splits his time between both countries.

Also Australia is filled with limp wristed liberals and I don't intend to go back for at least a decade.

>>46346615

>>46346729

>>46346707
You make a compelling argument.

>>46346729
>>46346746

>>>/pol/

>>46346754
Also the eye of night ignores cover, which can sometimes be relevant. It's pricey, but specifically with regards to pooping on vehicles, it's better than the orbital strike.

>>46346746
Live somewhere not fucking retarded. I live in a working class neighborhood in Minnesota and pay about $600/mo. after utilities and web for full bath, master bedroom, full kitchen, and living room/dining room thing.

That is a good deal though. This isn't the 80's, you can't get a house for that low anymore unless you live in Detroit.

>>46346729
Live here a little longer and you might find the "making insane money" and "costing asshats" don't quite match up. $25 an hour SOUNDS like great money, but like you said, AAA video games are $90 on launch and beer is $15-20 for a six pack, you pay doesn't go very far. If you make less than $20 an hour here you can pull stupid 10 hour days and still fall below the poverty line.

It's like the rest of the world wanting pay raises refuses to even look at you guys.

>I make $30/hr!

There is an oddity though in the pricing in that a lot of stuff is priced identical to the US but these products are usually made off shore in China or something. Like disposable facial razors.

Regardless, there's literally no difference between here and there in pay if you factor in the cost of living, thankfully when I go down there I rent the shittiest place ever, keep a cricket bat near my bed, and take advantage of the almost 0.8:1 to exchange rate (though it's getting worse lately).

>>46346946

I'd eat robot burgers. They would be able to cook medium rare perfectly, every time too with maximum juiciness.

>>46346957

>>46347017
Opperating a business, even just selling things and doing everything else overseas, is still very expensive. The 50% fuck you Aus is really "Our money is relatively worthless because we make so much of it".

Now, you might say "but then why is the exchange rate pretty solid?". It's because Aus does not do a terrible amount of international trade so other countries do not posses as much of it, this is changing though. Soon the AUD will be like the Peso.

>>46347051
>How do these people live with this ideological hypocrisy?

I'm pretty sure liberals and SJW are simply unaware of their own ignorance and hypocrisy.

>>46347008
medium rare is what you order when you want some blood but don't trust the chef with doing a good rare meat

If a theoretically perfect robot fry cook existed, you would always get rare, because it wouldn't fuck it up.

US cost of living is about 10% cheaper. It's not quite that simple because our price variation is a lot greater, as you said we get $2 Chinese disposable razors, but there are also $40 ones. You can get snout and asshole sausages for $2, but a packet of not-shit mince will set you back $10, premium stuff even more so.
>tl;dr our cheap shit is CHEAP, but 'good' stuff is expensive and treading the line of feasibility
Part of our obesity epidemic is because shit food or takeaway is cheap, and real fresh food isn't affordable for a lot of people.
>>46347017
>>46347051
Again, there are legit reasons like our inflated dollar and business expenses, but actual accountants have looked into this shit and the numbers don't quite match up. It varies tremendously but the average is around +20% because Fuck You, Australia.

And even then, I'm in line for a dollar and a half promotion quite honestly because I show up on time for all my shifts. It isn't that difficult to make more money if you want to, these fucktards just don't want to put in the work in the first place.

Not the plebs of 4chan's memes.

And everytime I need to explain that no, I'm not the Pizza, Mafia, Mandolino kind of Italian, I'm the one that live between mountains, cold and industries.

Yes, you cook well and your people is nicer that ours. But we are not like you.
We weren't even Italians less than a century ago, and some of us still feels like we don't belong to this country.

if USA, they take money out of your check for mess hall whether you eat there or not unless you're married and not living in barracks. and depending on your specific job, you may or may not have long stretches between deployments in garrison where your job is essentially 9 to 5 and you have plenty of time for /tg/ stuff.

>in most of the fluff about the Ultramarines the tau are not viewed as an urgent threat, especially when compared to enemies such as chaos and the nids.

They aren't really. I mean, even post-campaign books where the Tau gave thr imperium a genuine bloody nose and proved they can go toe to toe with a genuine imperial attack force, they are still pretty small compared to the galaxy enders.

Moreover, losing utterly to the Tau wouldn't be as big a deal. Being enslaved by an alien empire fucking sucks, but humanity has ridden that pony before and come back strong. Casting down a series of such oppressors was a big part of the imperium's foundation. Worse comes to worst with the Tau, it could *eventually* be done again.

There is no coming back from bring eaten, whether it's nids eating your meat or chaos eating your soul.

This. Orks are probably the least grimdark faction actually. They don't suffer much at all, they really don't feel serious pain (which means they aren't all that brave either, it's not hard to go balls out fighting nonstop when there's no terrifying downside to losing like immense pain) and their society is pretty much fairly run. Grots and such get treated like ass but again, there's no real pain so the worst setup is you're a grot who has to work hard, which is vastly preferable to the bottom rungs of every other society in 40k. Orks are basically utopian by their own definition, maybe 'umies could learn a thing or two.

Granted being a non-ork race enslaved by orks would be shit but even then there's old fluff about owned 'umies who gained the grudging semi-respect of orks as "not half bad, but no ork" by being dead ard.

Not that anon but if the ayylmaos have the means to cover interstellar distances at will, chances are they're a fair bit beyond us.

So lets say they show up, think us to be animals and decide they like our planet and start to colonise it. What would you do if a nest of wasps was getting uppity in your attic?

Chances are, you call in the exterminator or you whip out yer own hillbilly flamethrower.

>>46349301
no, I kill them because wasps literally aren't complex enough organisms to feel pain and don't have the required hardware. I'm not some vegan faglord, I just don't go out of my way to make animals suffer and think that every faggot who says "lel suffering of dogs etc aint le same" is being an intellectually dishonest shitbird because the only thing that separates dogs from humans in that case is the feels in their mind

anyone know where I can get good looking counterfeit/cheap Rhinos? I need like 5 to make 3 immolators and 2 exorcists for my new sisters army

>>46349358
Rhinos are pretty cheap. Idk if counterfeits or counts as's would be a significant savings. Unless you go full retard and use dollar store toys or something.

>>46349373
they're like $25, $30 if they're new in box. I guess that's cheap by warhammer standards but it's still $125-150 for 5 of em

Would it be cheesy of me to put my two RW attack Squadrons and the Support Squadron on the board to let me Strike Force auto-come in turn two?

Both Attack Squads have two attack bikes and a landspeeder(3+ Rerollable Jink) and the Support Squadron has a Darkshroud and three landspeeders (2+ Rerollable Jink).

Is it too risky to hope they survive till turn 2?

>>46349395
>Is it too risky to hope they survive till turn 2?

Depends entirely on the army you are facing.
Tau and IG will fuck your shit up, as will any other good ignore cover weapons.
That said you would have like 13 HP and 4 W they have to chew through. Spread them out enough and your RW shouldn't have a problem rolling through.

There may be such a thing as being too loyal though.

And, to be fair, SW in recent years seem to be adhering more to the Emperors vision than the orders of those that technically speak for the Emperor.

What you actually think Inquisitrors do everything in the name of the Emperor?

>>46349573
Hey, when yer so loyal that you're singled out as the dudes its easiest to make attack other loyalists, ya gotta wonder

>>46349598
They do.

Whats debatable is if Emps would endorse their actions. I hedge on the ''probably not'' side of things myself but Emps could be a bit of a hardass sometimes

>>46349351

Not really that's the entire point of the Wolves. Every legion filled a niche and the Wolves niche was to do whatever it took, to fulfill any order even if they didn't like it, and the Emperor needed that.

>>46349838
Yes but when its to the degree that you will accept order changes from a secondary source, especially such a major change, you should stop to think.

I mean, if Emps himself (or a facsimile thereof) had delivered the order change then fine but Russ literally attempted to destroy a legion at the command of a second party, not the Emperor.

>>46349871
>or a facsimile thereof
That's literally what Horus was as the warmaster, he had all the Emperor's authority in commading the armed forces of the Imperium
That would have been like me saying when I was in the army "I'm sorry sir but I'm not entirely sure I should charge that building full of taliban, can you please get the Queen on the line to confirm that's what she wants"

>>46349961
Not really, it'd be like you telling your immediate superior ''listen, I know Im meant to carry out the punishment but the General told me it was to be imprisonment, not execution. Can you get the General on the phone to confirm that for me?''

Horus had the Emperors authority in matters of war. This was an issue of punishment, ergo not Horus' domain.

Rather it's like asking the general if you can talk to the president, just to make sure he's not beign supid or a lying shit

>>46349994
>Horus had the Emperors authority in matters of war. This was an issue of punishment
It was both since punishment was a de-facto war. besides if it was such a radical change why didn;t Valdor say anything? he was closer than almost anyone to the Emp and would have known if Horus' order was such a departure from what the Emperor ordered.

>>46350029
Well, asking the president if that is definitely his order seems logical when you consider its a General and all his men on the block.

I mean, if it was a grunt or something then whatever but its an army and their commander. Surely that would warrant a direct command from the President?

>>46350040
Well, it was a pretty major change. The original order was to arrest Magnus, peacefully if possible but by force if needs be. Wiping them all out is a pretty big departure from that.

As to Valdor, maybe because the custodes wee designed to basically be unthinkingly obedient? Maybe bad writing? Maybe he was ignored? Who knows?

Rumours for the general shape of 2016. Not so much on there that's interesting to the 40k general, I know, but still worth posting.

Later in that AOS rumour thread Hastings again said all GDs were done and have been for some time, but for me plastic GDs are getting a bit like plastic sisters, it's hard to get excited until actual picture leaks happen.

The Higher-ups in the Admech know that the Void Dragon is sealed in Mars, and fully believe that it's the Omnissiah. Or something along those lines.

The Steel Confessors were given Forgeworld Kalevala as their homeplanet thanks to AdMech intereference, with the Forgeworld and Skitarii having the same color scheme as the Steel Confessors.

I like to think daemons have hobbies and past times based on their god.

Nurgle daemons and their mortal friends dispondantly discuss current events and moan about how shitty and grimdark everything is.

Tzeentch daemons use their warp magic and scrying vision to pull pranks on random people and write terrible fiction about the characters of the setting.

Khorne daemons do the same as nurgle daemons only they're all RAGING /pol/acks rather than depressive pusballs.

Slaanesh daemons spend all their time gossiping and on random hobbies like dance, music and little plastic figures which they play wargames with.
