To follow up on the loyalist justaerin/deathshroud/wordbearers thing from last thread, come round, take a seat, and admit the 30k lorerape you've either committed or intend to commit. It's not like anyone in these threads will get triggered by your funky ideas, after all.
I plan to do a traitor death guard army because I like tough bastards that don't give up and poison. But I plan to paint them up as dusk raiders because I really like their colour scheme and am not a fan of the death guard one.
For added fun, I may add Mortarion to this force...
...and paint him in Dusk Raiders colours as well.

Well, I want to do the army in Mk III, with lots of breachers. So currently waiting to see what's in the mystical sequel to BaC, as it'd be a bummer to buy a load of resin shortly before that armour mark appeared in cheaper plastic. If said box doesn't have plastic Mk III then no worries, I'll crack on with getting some resin breacher and Mk III heavy weapon squads together.

The older fluff when an ork reached a level of maturity it would find a way back to it's home planet to do "sum'ting." I'm not sure if that's how the spelt it, close enough, who cares. Orks had an established sex drive.

Squad broken did use some creative licensing but squad broken 2 had a fucking space marine using a plasma rifle. What the fuck is that shit. That's not in their arsenal and neither do they make a "pulsing" sound.
>>
>>47712869
Ran some numbers, let's see if they're helpful
>The Medusa may be the better source of regular AP2 phosphex, but if what you care about is killing regular marines while leaving behind flaming dangerous terrain, then Phosphex Quad launchers are your best option, ruining ~1.5 times the terrain covered by Medusae, while being ~2.8 times more points efficient in doing so, its MEQ killing capabilities comparable to Scorpius Whirlwinds (shorter range, less mobility and wounds on a 3+, but more reliable, leaves obstacles for infantry in its wake and you can bring more dakka for the same price).
Furthermore, you can take phosphex cluster bombs on the "I hope they don't spit at me" Lightning fast attack choice (and you can bring three of them as a single LoW, but that'd be like giving away 3VP)
>>
>>47713015
The issue I have with giving the medusa phosphex is you lose the S10 AP2 shot. The quad-mortar can still fire other types of rounds if you give it phosphex.
>>
>>47713042
Then bring the Ordo Reductor's Medusae, which get extra options and come with both regular and phosphex shells base, at a cheaper price than the Legion's, because fuck them. It's not like the Magos Reductor doesn't have his uses, so the tax would be about a single unit of Thallax. Dunno, it's a tempting option.
>>
>>47713042
yeah the medusa should be able to choose which shell its shooting.

also typhons need phosphex :^)

>>47713188
Lots and lots of dudes. My 3000pt list has 43 power armored bodies, 8 terminator bodies, and Angron. I;m not sure how fluffy Dreadnoughts are to World Eaters, but I like them too. I always field a Leviathan. I figure they're unstable and crazy enough to be right up our alley. Dreadclaws are great, Kharybdis if you want to use giant squads, and of course the Spartan. We have a great survivability RoW in the Crimson Path, and Berzerker Assault is pretty good, too. You might want a Sicaran Venator or some Laser Destroyer Vindicators because there's not a whole lot of antitank otherwise (my anti-armor is my Contemptor-Mortis and my Leviathan).
>>
>>47712669

Those two Exterminators are a clusterfuck. Are you trying to kill light vehicles and infantry with autocannons? Tanks with the lascannon? Light infantry with the bolters and stubbers? Choose one and roll with it and you'll save a bunch of points. Ditch the lascannon and stubber for multi-lasers, remove sponsons. Remove infantry/rhinos and AAA in a pinch

The Vanquishers are perhaps even worse. For what possible reason would you want 50pts of anti-infantry for a tank that's exclusively designed to hunt tanks? Ditch everything except the lascannon.

If you're planning on using the Grenadiers for melee, consider giving them augmented weapons to give them a slight boost when they don't rend. Throw in some medics for better FNP and more bodies.

Never understood why 30k lists are so infantry light. My 1500 40k army has this amount of infantry.
>>
>>47713544

Which is funny because 30k is oriented towards loads of big squads due to the cheaper pricing.

It just so happens that loads of people also choose to go Pride of the Legion, which means they can fill out absurd numbers of points with a handful of models (and less $$$$$).
>>
>>47713544
that is fairly infantry light 2bh

my WE list has about the same amount of infantry except like 30 of the power armor guys are veterans with poweraxes

Eh, I go for a Pride of the Legion and have 4x Vet squads+Seekers at 1850ish-pts. Its that people rely on deathstars units and large vehicles and those add up quick, in that anon's list Angron's deathball is probably close to 1.2kpts on its own.

Also, sons are less willing to raise their hand against their mother than against their father.

Both can fuck up in their own way. Having wimpy-ass children due to overprotecting them still counts as fucking them up.

I guess this one is true. I've seen fathers-sons at but a finger of killing each other. It's a sad thing to behold.

>>47715198
the difference is some author (I want to say it was abnett?) needed something to show a psyker EVEN STRONGER than an alpha level psyker, but ran out of greek alphabet

in practice there is no difference, because psychic powers are literally unexplained magic with no consistency. That's why the alpha-beta-omega-whatever levels only show up in a handful of novels, and never in any of the mainline fluff pieces.
>>
>>47715093
So the Psyker grading system is a logirythmic grading system ranking them in fairly broad power groups depending on the style of powers that they have. The problem with this style of grading is that once you reach the upper end of the curve the system is largely meaningless because the differences even between two alpha level psykers could be like the difference between an AK-47 and a Intercontinental Ballistic missile. The reason for the Alpha+ designation is to denote the very strongest of the alpha levels.

Yes, I'm aware those Tau have their own version of the plasma rifle, but even though the word "rifle" used to mean "rifled barrel", the meaning of it has evolved, because word usage isn't set in stone:
>In many works of fiction a rifle refers to any weapon that has a stock and is shouldered before firing, even if the weapon is not rifled or does not fire solid projectiles (e.g. a "laser rifle").

Say, when will we get 30k's Skitarii (Scutarii?). Those guys have been around since before the heresy, haven't they?
I want to understand the relationship of Skitarii and Cult Mechanicus with the Mechanicum.
I tend to think of the AdMech and the Mechanicum as synonims, and I want to know how wrong would that be (also, I'd love Holy Requisitioners existing in 30k)

I've only ever played a couple of games and I like the Word Bearers. I've read their rules, but I'm not entirely sure if they're garbage or not. They seem good, but, as I said, I've got no experience. Anyone able to help a bit?

They aren't bad. They aren't as good as the Blood Angels, Emperor's Children, or Death Guard, but you could easily field a diverse army utilizing their special units and perform fairly well.

Think of every Japanese Mecha Trope, hot blooded, suicidal brave, impulsive, unwilling to ever back down, and that is the household.

And Knight machine Spirits are alive, they have a will of their own, or at least so the household believes.

Also the Knight Models will have back-fins, Gundam Heads from model kits and numbers from 01 to 09.

A monster that hunts other monsters is still a monster. If people use your name the same way they refer to the boogieman, are you still a nice fella? Nigga was damaged goods and needed high-grade therapy.
It would have been nice if he had been mentored by Vulkan instead of Fulgrim, and still had the whole "it's also a hammer" incident.
>Kurze is a pretty boy in a metal thrash band sort of way.
All primarchs are baseline pretty. Even as other factors marred their visage, especially Angron, Mortarion and Vulkan, everybody was able to still catch a glimpse of the Emperor in them.

>>47725961
Think the white scars thing is largely because their legion-specific melee weapon, the power glaive, is pretty tasty.
>>
>>47726019
Which is basically just EC fags complaining that they don't have the top melee weapon anymore. It's only available to characters so isn't even that great as AP2 at initiative is only good en masse. Only legions with that are EC, Smurfs and DG iirc.

>>
>>47726138

You can use literally anything as Solar Auxilia so long as they look sufficiently armoured and are totting lasguns.

If any grognards tell you otherwise (refer to prior autist who refused to play White Scars anon because no books talked about Ultramarines fighting them), remind them that the Solar Auxilia was a galactic template for broadly-similar armed forces, and even Rogue Traders had household troops that fell under that category.

The entire point of the Imperial Army is basically 'ur doods' in a setting that is otherwise quite statically SM (Blackshields excepted).
>>
>>47726076
>It's only available to characters so isn't even that great

Well duh, WS haven't gotten their legion-specific units yet. Just you wait until we get an entire unit of WS5 2+ bikers all equipped with Power Glaives.

>You do know that most marines have a 3+ save right?
Yeah, and there are ones with a 2+ save. What's your point?

The point is that AP 2 weapon are good with needing a full of them, since in most cases there will only be one 2+ in a squad.

I especially like Praxil's description. Judging by the text, they're Gene-crafted Survivors of a Dark Age Grenadiers, equipped with either +1S lasguns or 4S melee weapons (and 3+ saves).

They're sort of synonyms. When the Imperium was reformed after the Heresy, the Mechanicum was given a seat among the High Lords of Terra and renamed as one of the many Adepta. It didn't really change internally, only in its relationship to the rest of the Imperium.

We're not yet sure how the Skitarii fit into it; I suspect that in 30k they're the Mechanicum's military wing, controlled centrally, whereas the tech-thralls that FW has released are under local control. The Cybernetica was bigger back then, so many the Skitarii were less important or widespread. Secutarii seem to be similar but belong to the titan legions.

The Cult Mechanicus is simply their religion and the units that exist in 40k are probably around in 30k, but are again less important in military matters because there are so many high-quality automata to rely on.
