First for the Fist! Thoughts on Phalanx wardens?

>>47363215
Are they worth taking them over breachers?

The Stone Gauntlet: so your Breachers can pretend to be slower Iron Hands Assault squads (under certain conditions)

>>47363257
The way I see them is as Breachers with the option for axes and plasma guns, as well as a boost to WS when charged. Eh, it's a bit of a subtle change.

>>47363301
They keep the +1T in assault, when they're charged. IH -1 to enemy Toughness is only against shooting attacks.

>>47363228

>>47363302
It's fine, threadbro made a better summation than I did.

I forgot about the Order of the Sigismunds.
That was hilarious.

There's one thing I don't understand about IH Immortals. Are the Volkite snapshots better than the chance to Sweep, especially since they both test for Ld? I don't think so.

>>47363333
By the grace of the Emperor and a full moon on Terra The Order of The Sigismunds may combine their powers to become The One True Sigismund.

>>47363391
>Are the Volkite snapshots better than the chance to Sweep, especially since they both test for Ld?

Nope.

If it was just the option to shoot after victory in assault, and/or it was guaranteed to succeed, it'd be a nice variation on the Terminator no sweeps rule, but the choice is basically between staying put and having a chance to do some damage in doing so, or defeat the whole unit.

I have another question on making that surreal planet guys. It's obvious that it would be a death world with blimp sharks, psychic sharks in the oceans, ammonia and sulfuric acid raining from the sky but would what sort of funk would have it have on the population? Would having semi-sentient shakes screaming in their dreams drive them crazy, or make them immune to psychic funk?

Beep for the Boop God.

How would you improve on the Iron Circle Rules to make them worth taking over Tyrant Terminators?

>>47363858
Give them the ability to deep strike and teleport to Pert?

2+, Deep Strike, and transportability.

They're already expensive, but their armour resistance is lower than those of meatbags less than half their size, which makes no sense. They're already expensive enough to exceed a TS squad for value for their cost.

The most obvious flaw is their lack of mobility.
Being able to deep strike would be great, but since Dreads can fit in drop pods and even some other vehicles, it'd be stupid if you couldn't shove at least one in a drop pod or a land raider.

Eternal Warrior and fearless would be good, though I don't remember the rules of MCs well at all, so these might be covered already.

>>47363937
Thanks for the laugh, Anon, but there's one issue. The video's not available in my country. Just how a Men in Black video isn't available in Freedom Land is beyond me. Well night, guys. Don't let the bed Scoria bite. Hopefully the full moon will be in tactical assault mode to keep me safe.

>>47363976

Thanks. Sweet dreams, /tg/!

>>47363955
They're already Fearless (and cause Fear), but they don't have EW. I'd prefer a 3++ over a regular 2+ desu.
And being able to deepstrike by themselves, of course. If we need to pay for that then we'd be better off with a Land Raider SQUADRON.

Sup guys, so I just started my World Eaters formal project's phase one. I had about 1500 painted before this but am getting right into the swing of things now.

Over the next few months I'll be making 4000+ points of World Eaters. I'll post updates everynow and then and ask rules questions as I learn. For now though I will leave you with my new Contemptor. I posted the axe on here a month or so ago but finally just got to put it to use.

Cheers mates! Keep on killin!

>>47363937
That armor is embossed, not engraved.

What loadouts do people use for contemptors? I'm thinking of fielding 3 with my Maru Skara and I want them all to be uniquely kitted out based on potential roles in life. My thoughts were
>Chainfist and CCW, heavy flamers, havoc launcher, and extra armour
Some sort of terminator veteran in life, possibly phoenix guard or a captain
>Twin-linked Volkite culverin, CCW
Probably a veteran of Terra who was used to volkite weapons
>Autocannon and CCW
Probably a line captain or first company sergeant, good all rounder with no particular specialization
Gamewise my only real need is for them to be able to kill tanks since my list is infantry heavy and lacks much in the way of anti-tank.

If you're going to do that you might as well join a forum or facebook group. Also might want to make your photos B&W so people won't immediately recognize you're buying recasts.

The Emperor sure likes to traumatize his sons. He should have picked Russ or Angron for the job

>>47365193
I hate loyalists, they're largely a bunch of pussies, and even I can't bring myself to hate Sanguinius. Guilliman sure, Ferrus maybe, Lion possibly. But not Sanguinius.

Blood Angels get a lot of hate, some of it is deserved but they're nowhere near the worst.

At least he didn't listen to Erebus, the sketchiest fucker in the Imperium, like some other baldy chump.

Alright, picking up a betrayal at calth box in the next few weeks to start an Iron Warriors army, aside from ordering a heavy weapons kit or two from FW, does anyone have suggestions of what to expand the army with? Quad mortars maybe?

>>47365561
Medusas.

Looks like there isnt a scan of the updated legions book, or is it just not in the OP? Anyway does anybody have screenshots of the new World Eaters book?

Also any ideas on how to make chainaxes work with the B@C marines? Might be a bad idea since the arms are made for bolters

No, it's already pretty clear that it's the HORUS HERESY. Adding more junk to the OP won't make people pay more attention.

>>47366204
It's the Talon of Horus, in the book that shares the name. The second primarch killed by it may be, as the other anon already said, Horus, but I'm not sure that counts since it was a clone, even though it was as close to perfect as possible.

>>47366224
>>47366857

AT LAST, BACK TO THREAD.

This surreal world of yours, would you consider it a death world, Catachan-style? I mean, Miral Skysharks.
Because even from such hellholes, like Catachan, Krieg or Barbarus, they can contribute the Imperium with their hardened people
And almost all worlds have some sort of mineral wealth to them. I was thinking of stuff similar to Cameron's Pandora, with less spess pocahontas and more "This is Unobtanium, it's worth 1 000 000 000 per kilo", and floating mountains where the SKYSHARKS can hunt.

But a Deny-on-4+ army can be nice. That's one of the AL Mutable Tactics (maybe they recruit from there too?)

Ingethel gestured with its two left arms. ‘Do you see the warriors clad in cardinal red?’ Lorgar couldn’t fail to see them. An entire Legion unknown to him, their bolters crashing as they
advanced in mixed ranks with the bellowing Neverborn. Imperial Fists fell back before them, their numbers diminishing with each passing moment.‘They are the Bearers of the Word.’ ‘They…’‘Yes, Lorgar. They are.’ And they were. His Legion, his own loyal sons, armoured in a shade of spilled blood and oxidised iron. Prayer scrolls marked their armour, their piety declared with defiance even as the parchments were ripped and scorched in the heat of battle. Many helms bore horns in mimicry of officer crests,
and every shoulder guard showed a daemon’s twisted visage, wrought in blackened bronze.
Watching them brought their chants to life. Who were these warriors, to adorn themselves in skulls and daemons’ faces, chanting ritual verse as they advanced? What had become of his Legion? Ingethel pried the thoughts from Lorgar’s mind. ‘The future holds many changes, primarch.’

>>47367760
Yeah, it's a shame skyfire isn't easier to get as 30k has some tasty flyers, I'd say more than 2 or 3 is probably a bit much depending on how much AA your opponent's bringing.

>>47367787
I would say it's Catchan levels of dangerous. Yes there are blimp sharks and psychic sharks but it's not like they're working together to aloha snackbar population centers. As for the material wealth that is going to be a thing but I guess the planet could be good for research. Kelp's psycho-reactive, fish eat the kelp, fish get eaten by sharks and sharks become psykers. Fish get eaten by people people become psykers.

>>47368531
It's still a bit too early to tell, given their lack of special characters. It's WS5 bikers with rad grenades and heavy bolters that ignore marine armour 50% of the time vs Jink(3+) Bikes with some AP2 weapons and lots of rerolls, you decide.

>>47368531
I guess it depends how you want to use the rest of the army. If it's all out, balls to the wall speed you're after, Scars will be your best bet. If you want a bit more of a balanced force, go for the DAngles.

>>47368501
Larger squads are cheaper per man than minimum squads, and I say that a Chaplain rolling the Lerneans would be better than your Praetor.

>>47368578
2500. Bearing in mind I need three compulsory troops for the RoW, so there's only so much condensing I can do.
I've also taken the Night Lords because I have 2 other Night Lord players in my group, so I'm trying to take advantage of Alpharius' abilities in that regard.

>>47368501
Yes, 10 man squads are cheap grinder meat and don't last long outside of a transport. If you're already taking an expensive Assault Squad, may as well take the extra points to make them worth it.

>>47368598
Don't I need the Praetor for the RoW? Or will Alpharius let me take it?

>>47368647
Alpharius, and indeed all Primarchs, have the Master of the Legion special rule, which is what lets you take a RoW.

>>47368647
You need a model with Master of the Legion.
That is either Alpharius, a Praetor or a Delegatus Consul

>>47368531
Dangles are for if you only ever want bikes, and nothing else in your list, and you get the whole bonus to hit with swords thing

White Scars allow a bit more flexibility, so id you wanted a 20 man blob you could take one, and you get better jink saves if you move your full distance

>>47368691
Heralds, Skorr and Dynat also work for the Alphas.

>>47368630
Outside of terminators I wouldn't recommend any unit smaller than 10 models in a game of that size. Your models simply won't last long enough.

>>47368804
Herals too, yeah, but they can't be the compulsory HQ, and Alpharius is a LoW so you can't bring just the two of them. And Skorr is a Delegatus and Dynat a Praetor.

There is some other art where some 1k Son Termies are blue.

>>47364545
I was thinking of dual CCW dreads with two graviton guns each. A full talon of three can kill a Spartan from 18" away, probably leaving the transported unit stranded on difficult terrain (and Spartans usually carry cataphractii termies, meaning they wont be running).

This, but as a Cortus. BS4 is negligible with blasts and WS4 is countered by the reactor. And then you get a price cut for the trouble.
Dreadclaws are also a lovely alternative to a Talon, because semi-safe T2 deliveries are awesome.

>>47369637
I envisioned them as Cortus dreads, but given they are outflanking, the enemy will shoot their unshielded sides, and full atomantic shielding would be desired. But then again, they're suicide dreads after all.
If you have the money, make them Contemptor, but be aware the cheaper Cortus can do it allright.

What are your thoughts on a Questoris Detachment with a Knight Gallant Aspirant? I'm thinking that a -1 to BS and WS isn't that big of a deal when a melee knight will be hitting shit on 4s in melee anyway.

Quick question for you guys.

If I take the "Cult Horde" Provenance for the Militia and Cults list that means that the Heavy Ordnance Battery is functionally unusable as Provenance units have to Snap Fire correct?
Same thing to a lesser extent with the Rapier Battery.

I was curious as to what you guys thought because I'm not entirely sure if it is the unit firing the gun or the Arty itself being considered the firer.

>>47371716
Only the crews have the Provenance rule not the guns themselves. So unless I'm missing a rule where artillery guns can't shoot because of crew not being able to do something, you can still use those units.

>>47371527
Prospero would have been hell of a lot harder without the Sisters of Silence and the Custodes, yet they the Wolves get all the creds.

>>47374497
In my headcanon, Alpharius is the traitor, the one that ended or some lonely planet, before hijacking pirates ships and finding Horus' fleet, attacking it, and staying with him, the classic story, becoming the one that woule turn traitor by staying with Horus for a long time.

Omegon, on the other hand, was the one that ended up on a planet attacked by worm xenos, being captured and subsequently mindwashed and tortured before being found by Empy himself. Stayed with Empy to have his broken mind rebuild, hence becoming the loyalist in the end.
It's just how I picture it, but since if kinda follows logic, I like that. I definitely lovz the fact that FW gave people the opportunity to choose what fluff they would want to keep as their own, without being completely different from one another, just like GW did with the new LotD "codex" where you can choose between several interpretations.

but was kinda confused by one thing, why is Zahariel still a librarian basically a few months before the heresy? did Luther just """"forget"""" to mention that order?

Has anyone else gotten as good result with Reacers?

I usually run

Jump packs
7 power weapons
4 chainsaws
2 meltas
Chef with articier armor + power fist

1x15
Jump packs
12 volkites
3 meltas
Chef + volkite artificer armor

And they wreck face for me. They've consistently make more points back and put the opponent off footed the whole game. I played few people last Friday and everyone thought playing against SoH was going to be a steam roll.

Don't want to buy Rampagers just for one weapon, but I do want a meteor hammer for a sergeant. Anyone have recommendations for kits with suitable hammers?

Guys sorry but I'm a bit of casual. Could someone tell me who the traitor legions on the left of OPs pic are specifically? Don't recognise them in those colours.

It's not a hammer with a Meteor on it. It's an ancient Chinese weapon which resembles a ball on the end of a rope or chain.

Theres no reason not to, I mean they are expensive and may be overkill against their target but I think they are awesome units. Personally I made mine out of the 40k tacticals, all have a mix of MkIV and VI chests and bare heads, except the sergeant who has MkVI helmet and a Black Templar MkVIII chest I had lying around.

Shorthand for how utterly boring and unoriginal most western weaponry is, all rather minor variations of the standard sword, spear, axe, bow and various combinations thereof. In the east and south you have weapons like bagh naka (Tiger Claws, basically real-life lightning claws), kulbeda (A crazy looking throwing knife), katar (Indian Hand Daggers), the list goes on.

All I'm saying is that western weaponry are rather utilitarian and thus boring. If you want the crazy shit, you look east and south.

Easy, as we afe talking about a semi gas planet...go for rare gasses!

The cloudspires harvest those, while divers head into the methane lakes to pullup minerals that sunk to the bottlm (meteorites?) and put gas chunks that solidified through the pressure down there into special pressure capsules so it doesnt vanish when they get it out.

I think the world would be a prime Solar Auxilia recruitment world, or ship crew and void technicians.

They are so reliant on high tech, space station and accustomed to void/low gravity environment and suits that it would be a crime to ignore them.

Also, as I worked with you on this, would you mind me using this world as background for my SA guys?

Also we need a name and dangers, also how it looks like from space.

I am for not-jupiter not-bespin (cloud spires) with a lot of void/deep sea stations and a heavily mined asteroid belt that survived by being usefull as a fuel seller/refinery and limited ship repair/build society that grew from dark age of technology mining operations that survived under a elected council of tech guild and union/clans as they were to out of the way and unimportant during the warp storms.

Feels eclipse phase and I love it.

>>47367869
I would tone down the psyker level, but we could have an aliem species that is like the tentacle guys from the first indipendence day movie.

Maybe some sort of devolved descendants from an invasion force of psyker xenos that continue to plague the planet side operations in their tribal, inbred, techno barbarian for .
Sort of how horror movies porray native americans...deleting settlements and leaving wierd steles.

Senseof mystery and all that, because everybody having adamantium will seems a bit extreme.

Low scale psychic preadtor blimp sharks and psyker alien hillbillies sound nice though to improve psyker abilities and resistance to them.

They might be one of the reasons plus all the mineral and void shit anon mentioned to recruit from there and help them out.

Why bother with cataphractii on the praetor? An iron halo gives the same save and actually let's you sweep, which you can't in cataphractii. Also, I would personally recommend a kharybdis instead of a storm eagle since it will drop turn 1. Gahlan Surlak is also practically made for this rite, find a way to squeeze him in and put him with Angron. That's a 3+++. And with him, you can make your other blob inductii for that sweet sweet +1S. And for me, you've got too many vehicles for this rite. Maybe turn the predators to dreads at least, or red butchers/legion terminators if you can fit some, but that's just a fluff choice for me and the predators would work fine.

Terminator armour is bulky, relentless, and has one less attack (can't take two specialist weapons unless they go for a pair of lightning claws) while costing 15 points more. At least the cataphractii praetor would end up a bit cheaper than the artificer praetor.

Aren't you proving yourself otherwise ? I was going to ask if there was a way to give a Termie praetor an extra attack for two melee weapons other than AL, WB and WE. I guess not

>>47386501
I know, so i changed around the theme so its not that obvious.

>>47386543

>>47386577
Well in staying with the theme there is one trench on the planet whispered in hushed tones of giant sharks with tremendous psychic power who rise every thousand years to feast upon blood and to soak psychic terror.

>>47386631
Can't be Australia: it's not a trenc and their psyker sharks are also poisonous

>>47386676
Anon, 2/3 of every planet is Space Australia.

>>47386749
What do you mean? I thought land poisonous creatures didn't live on either cold, mountain or coastal areas

>>47386439
Why you pay for iron halo in cataphractii stoopid? You already get 4++ from the armor.

>>47386882
It's a joke I made about how many times /tg/ has made Space Australia and just how many death worlds are around.

>>47386570
>Aren't you proving yourself otherwise?
No, the former points were assuming a tartaros terminator hence the iron halo, if you go cataphractii you have no need for the Iron Halo making him 25 points cheaper than the tartaros terminator or 10 points cheaper than the artificer praetor.

>I was going to ask if there was a way to give a Termie praetor an extra attack for two melee weapons other than AL, WB and WE
How can any of those except Alpha Legion give him extra attacks?
World Eaters allow them to swap a chainsword for a caedere weapon. Terminators don't have chainswords. Likewise Word Bearers let you swap power weapons for tainted weapons, but the power weapon is what you would need to swap out for a paragon blade or power fist. So pretty much you can swap the power sword for a tainted weapon or swap the power sword for a paragon blade, either way you are only getting one specialist weapon.

God went through a deviantart period. Here's a serious idea some scientists have because that messed up jaw is too silly for them. Also now you startled it, and now it's in attack mode.

>>47387396
The other one is honestly less silly to me. Seems like the jaw just grows to add more teeth as it ages, to compensate for broken/missing ones.

The sawblade jaw is just too bizarre, by comparison. I know that nothing is too bizarre for sea life, and early sea life in particular, but how would it even eat.

But why are you giving him terminator Armor at all if he's not attached to terminators? Sure he's relentless, but what heavy weapons are you giving him? Bulky only matters for a few legions, and I'd rather be able to sweep than make 1 more attack. Artificer and iron halo is the way to go in a tactical squad, which his appears to be

>But why are you giving him terminator Armor at all if he's not attached to terminators?
I'm not the guy planning to use a terminator praetor. I am simply saying that a terminator praetor is literally useless unless you are trying to create a cheap HQ that can take hits well, Salamanders and Iron Hands in particular with 3+ saves being a possibility.
eg.
Iron Hands Praetor, Cataphractii Armour, Power Fist, Cyber Familiar: 160 points
3 wounds 2+/3++ can still ID toughness 4
Salamanders Praetor, Cataphractii Armour, Shield, Power Fist: 150 Points
3 wounds, 2+/3++, can still ID toughness 4, option for eternal warrior

Outside of those two situations I would never take a terminator praetor.

anything anyone shoots out of a bolter is superiour to banestrike. muh DARK SEKRUT rounds are outpreformed by regular seeker rounds at all ranges all the time...

>>47387917
I was obviously speaking purely in practical terms. If you just want shit that looks good do whatever the hell you want? I have a friend that fields a World Eaters praetor with falax blades and a paragon blade but only ever uses the falax blades for maximum attacks 4 base plus charge, plus rage, plus digital lasers, plus paired weapons, +1 for falax blades. Gets him like nine AP 5 rending attacks on the charge. Not good against marines but hilarious nonetheless.

>>47387853
Ok, I understand now. My original question about it was directly responding to that guy's list, where a terminator praetor is pretty retarded unless he wants a combi-melta that badly, in which case take melta bombs

>>47387953
They seem allright for termies and their combi-weapons. Rapid-fired Banestrike kills more MEQs than Scorpius...but thad' mean you're 9" away from them, in a "come at me bro" spot.
They're not the best ammo they could be.
Still better than Shrapnel Shells :'(
>>47387952
It can't. That possibility sailed a long time ago

>>47388034
Regular praetor can take a combi-weapon anyway

It beats the manatee of same carp we have in these threads I'll give you that. I have the sinking suspicion I'm not too great at nautical puns.

>>47388262
I know, so much wasted potential, they'd do rather well in melee. How better can a headhunter confirm his kill than by literally claiming the head in melee?
>Their Power Daggers, at S3 with Rending AP3 generate twice as many unsaved wounds than S4 AP-- which, coupled with Hammer of Wrath from their Venom Spheres make them unexpectedly nasty in close combat. Infiltrate or Dreadclaw DTs (which can Heat Blast) will get them close, but being armed with Bolters means you'll have to choose either to Rapid fire Banestrike hoping for the best (~6.3 unsaved wounds) or charge and hope for the best too (~5.9). You'll end within charge range, so choose Counter-Attack as your Mutable Tactic to help with assaults and Combi-bolters to help with overwatch.

I have a feeling they'll be updated to have banestrike in their pistols too, just like Tybalt Marr.

I mean if slapping Banestike into pistols can be a thing, why should the SoH be the only ones doing it?

Doesn't matter if you are loyalist or traitor I hope you showed them what it means to face the XVI Legion

If you got the Imperial Knight Renegade set, which two would you mostly use for your legion's allied detachment? My inner Black Templar is telling me to go double Gallant, but Papa Dorn would say I need at least one Gatling Cannon.

>>47388696
I personally would say make one a gallant, as there cheap and purely choppy, but make the other a crusader because it's simply called the CRUSADER.

Good to hear that!

Are you going for black reaving!
The 3 squads imply it, also how do you handle spartans,land raiders and fliers?

I like reavers because they are basically a suped up tac/assault squad wigh more gear options.

All those power weapons,chain axes and volkites.
