Horus Heresy General /hhg/

Alright, assuming I wanted to be as fluff friendly as possible, are there any GW vehicles for the Legions I could get? Or are the Deimos pattern ones the versions to be used in 30k? Just wondering.

>>48251763
Rhinos, Land Raiders, Land Speeders, bikes, etc.

Can I just say fuck Rhino-pattern vehicles? I hate assembling that plastic chassis, it's an ancient kit and it's fucking garbage. It's even more of a pain in the ass to paint than it is to assemble, and that's saying something. Even with the Deimos siding it's still fucking god-awful. I can't wait for the kit to be redesigned, hopefully with optional Deimos and Mars plates to slap onto it for 30k/40k.

>>48251831
yeah i fucking hate them too. the aesthetic is good but the actual models themselves are trash. they need to bring them up to scale.

I have one question. Are you DAfags going to make your Pyrix Extasis look like the Ark of the Covenant like you should or not?

Which Legion has the most opportunity for bullshit WAAC?

>>48252011
Why do you ask?

>>48251917
then they would be the size of land raiders

And land raiders would be the size of fucking mastodons

>>48252027
sounds good to me.

>>48251831
Man, I was about to buy some, but apparently it's garbage?

>>48252057
sounds pretty retarded honestly. 40k doesnt exactly have consistent or realistic scale anyway

>>48252101
the rhino would still be smaller than the current LR.

New to the hobby, already have a direction, I'm looking for what I should steer clear of and want to know what mechanics are abusable. Mostly for homeruling purposes, I'll be playing primarily with my best friend, building narrative campaigns and the like.

>>48252246
No legion is legitimately WAAC in any tangible sense. There are WAAC builds but just due to the fact that this hobby is so expensive they are untenable, and also I doubt your friend will let you get away with it.

>>48252246
I'm going to trust that you won't be a cancerous spot but behold. Blood Angels megadakka can be very abusable. The megadakka is cheap and can be very hilarious. Unless your friend doesn't mind staring down the barrels of more assault cannons than bolters go for it. Just tell him he'll face the wrath of Zardoz if he does though. Just take a few assault cannons.

Gud.

>>48252354
Tell him that GW stores are going to start selling FW in-store soon.


Also that he can't ban FW.

>>48252246
legions arent the problem. army lists are the problem. typhons, thudd guns with phsophex, medusa spam, spartan spam, knights, terminator spam, lightning strike fighters all have potential to be abused, among many other things. the new RoW where you just take a whole army of tanks would be easily abused.

alpha legion with alpharius giving everything preferred enemy (everything) would be pretty disgusting if you abused it by fielding like 40 plasmaguns.
>>48252331
the worst part about that cancer is that hed have to roll every single assault cannon 1 at a time

>>48252358
only on a terminator squad instead of a heavy weapon.

>>48252372
he said a higher up said they would never sell fw in shop because they would have to give discounts on it to independent shops and it would create a secondary market like how gw products have

>>48252410
Anon, he's either lying or misinformed, as the in-store only Tartaros guy was made as a promotion for FW to soon be sold in-store.

>>48252433
any sauce on that?

Why are Rotor Cannons and HBolters so bad? I can understand Rotor Cannons, but not really with HBolters.

Also, the fact that were I to buy a pack of HBolters for Veteran Tacs, I'd most likely only end up using four of them, annoyingly enough, as to use all ten from two packs of them would mean to field five full sized Vet squads.

>>48252803
Use the spare one to give one of your vehicles a hull mounted heavy bolter. As an IF player I love that veterans make HB actually useful and not just weak shit.

>>48252294
That makes alot of sense. Thank's anon.

>>48252803
Rotor cannons aren't that bad, really.

>>48252884
I think rotor cannons are good on tarantulas compared to heavy bolters.

>>48252803
Thats why so many legions get buffs for hb, and also suspensor webs exist

personally i think it would be neat if ALL hb got suspensor webs in 30k

What are you guys working on? I got a couple contemptors and my legion champion on my desk.

I took the advice that I was given last time I posted and have tried to highlight my legion champ. I use zenith highlighting with my airbrush and the edges of the armour plates are weathered so I didn't do edge highlighting on the armour plates but I tried highlighting the gold especially. It's not noticeable from this angle with this light really.

Also I love Contemptors, especially cortus. What about you guys?

Rotor cannons look pretty bad on paper. But their model looks amazing.

>>48253040
Aye, I like that IW gets to make them Pinning.

>>48252858

It's out at the FW Weekender isn't it?

That said it's Thorpe, so it's not going to be anything more than mediocre.

>>48253104
Like I said before. Nice work.

>>48252094
It's not that terrible, but the design is a bit dodgy in places. Have some rubber bands ready to help keep it together and it'll be fine.

Hmmm...

I'm not sure what I want to do more, an Ironfire list, or a Pride of the Legion list. Both seem pretty good, but I don't know what I want to do more.

I'm new and don't own anything other than a couple pdfs I got from here.

>>48253509
most newbies start off with a POTL list as you can use expensive low model count units to fill mandatory slots

When you get more vehicles and infantry then you can get into ironfire

>>48253529
That's true, I think I'll write up a list in a bit to see what I can come up with.

>>48252858
I think thats a good rendition of his face

>>48253247
I think the case could be made for Rotor cannons if your weapons don't penetrate the enemies armor save, Rotor cannons force saves over bolters due to number of rounds fired. If the upgrade is inexpensive then the number of shots fired may be beneficial.

Why do Iron Hands get their own MkIII squad that comes with a nuncio-vox, auspex, and bolters?

I want my own MkIII legion squad with nuncio-vox, auspex, and bolters!

>>48254182
because the armor mark is named after them

>>48254235

Source? Would love to read how it was written.

>>48254297
i dont have any... but the alternative would be that they named it after the iron warriors... and we all know that wouldnt happen.

>>48254333
Homestly I'd love to have some MkIII IW squads like the IH have. You can't forget that the IW loved to build things, and an impenetrable defence was somethingn they liked.


Also because all they have right now is Perturabo and the Beep-Boops. Just hoping that the Iron Havocs don't cost more than regular marines with heavy weapon do, like how the Medusan Immortals cost more than Breachers, yet their models are nearly the same with the only difference being the IH iconography.

>>48254386
I have two questions regarding the Maru Skara rite of war, or at least the tactical side of it.

1. Do you ever have units arrive later than turn 2?
2. What kind of stuff do you place in reserves?

>>48254517
?

Is there any reason to choose a Thunder Hammer over a Paragon Blade on Praetors, other than for fluffyness?

>>48254910
Concussive. It can be effective on Salamander Praetors who can't be insta-gibbed.

>>48254910
Instant death most marines and drag anything else down to I 1 the following turn. Salamanders have little reason not to take them since they get a 3++ and EW anyway.

I just realized that there are no left-handed Thunder Hammers.

>>48255073
No, wait there is one in the MkIV power weapons set.

A shame it's more expensive than the other sets, as I only wanted the hammer to give my Praetor. Also, why does it come with two MkIII torsos?

>>48255209
They're MKIV torsos with extra armour. They look the same from the front but the sides and back is different.

>>48255286
Huh. Weird. Still mad about the Praetor arms though. Ah well, guess it can't be helped.

>>48255073

You could convert one without too much trouble. The death company thunder hammer might be a candidate, it's two handed, but you could cut the top part off and add it to the left arm. Rotate it at the shoulder a little. It's a bionic arm, so probably fairly compatible with most marks of armour.

>>48255456
I did this before I bought the MKIV power weapon kit, worked out alright.

>>48255456
True enough, though I suppose I'll just have him keep the Paragon Blade.

There are also no left handed Cataphractii Thunder Hammers. FW plz.

>>48255584
I guess you mean right handed. There's only left handed ones.

>>48255611
Anon, do you need your eyes checked?

Oh.

Wait. That's his left hand.

Y'know, I meant right handed the entire time.

How do I keep forgetting which hand is which?

>>48251763
All the "current" patterns of vehicles were also in use during the Heresy, just in not enough numbers.

There are some SM vehicles/suits used in M41 that weren't around in the Heresy though. The Stalker, Hunter, Stormtalon, Stormhawk, and Centurion Suits.

The Lord of Iron frowns upon me now.

Now I just need to buy the MkIII Techmarine and then I can give my Praetor the Servo-arm backpack and make him into a nice and fluffy Warsmith w/Hammer and Archaeotech Pistol.

No Termi-Servo-Arm, but that's not really a problem though.

>>48255803

Go in peace Anon, and swing your hammer with both hands.

>>48255837
Thank you, anon. I will go and either die or be decimated, 'tis the only way. But I will swing my hammer one handed like the Primarch, with my pistol in the other hand because it looks cool.

>>48255729

>>48256072
Where does this meme originate from? Without fail that is the first response when I post any progress pics of the knight

>>48256097
There was a pic of a knight an anon posted a while back in the /wip/ thread with a tiny epic scale church on the base of his knight, and when someone commented on it he went full retard.

Then a while ago someone posted this. We now know how much church is enough.

Never mind, I must've accidently deleted it.

>>48256097

A (fairly skilled) anon posted pictures of his knight, which had some snow-covered ruins on its base which somewhat resembled a church. When people pointed this out to him, rather than taking it in good humour and making adjustments, he sperged out about how it clearly wasn't a church, it was the wrong scale for a church, and idiot could see that it couldn't be a church, and everybody should shut the fuck up and stop calling it a church. He was baited back and forth across a good two or three WIP threads, good times were had by all (except church anon, who was saltier than a very salty thing), and now whenever someone asks what to put on a base or shows a picture of a large model, some witty anon will say that it needs more church.

Contemptors and Cataphractii also didn't exist in 40k until B@C, pretty sure. Didn't stop them. Also, they pull shit out of nowhere all the time, like Centurions and grav weapons. "Nah guys, we've always had this stuff."

Mars pattern Rhinos were a thing during the Heresy and one would argue Mars pattern predators, whirlwinds and vindicators would also be in use.

MkIII (plastic GW) Phobos Land Raiders can be seen in some of the HH books. Same with MkV (plastic GW) castaferrum dreadnoughts. Attack bikes and land speeders don't have FW models, so GW ones are your only option anyway. GW style bikes can be found in plenty of old HH art.

be like the inquisition, trust nothing until you grip it by the throat and spank it until it fesses up about Cypher

So I'm trying to get into 30k, whats the standard build like? I want something to work towards. I figure 2 20man legionary squads a contemptor and a praetor and master of signal? Or is Pride of the Legion worth it? Which rites are really shit and which are decent? I get theres a lot of variety and choice but I just want to lay out a plan for what to buy.

>>48258077
Decide what Legion you're interested in first as different units are buffed by different Legion rules. Just a heads up that waacfagging is frowned upon in /hhg/ so questions such as 'what is the best thing' with either get ignored or abused.

>>48258077
>>48258230
Some anon asked the same thing yesterday and everyone assumed it was WAACing. All he did was ask for a basic build.

Honestly for middle-of-the-road 30k lists just buy two BaC boxes and run all the contents. See if you can convert one of the dreads to mortis with 2 ACs

>>48258230
How is /HHG/ still so fucking toxic to new players? You didn't even answer his question.

>>48258349
>How is /HHG/ still so fucking toxic to new players?
We don't want it turning into 40k, plus I wasn't toxic at all. I I tend to help but I need a bit more info.

>You didn't even answer his question.
His question was vague so I asked a clarifying question back, what units or RoWs to recommend vary greatly depending on what Legion you want to play.

You should chill out a bit, not every question is "being toxic".

>>48258314
>just buy two BaC boxes and run all the contents. See if you can convert one of the dreads to mortis with 2 ACs
See this is bad advice, what if they guy wants to play ravenwing or a tank company or something. The calth box is good but blindly recommending new players straight up buy two calth boxes is unhelpful and lazy.

>>48258077

Pride can be worth it in a legion whose marines get some special benefit, that have some fantastic piece of wargear, or who can field special termies

So IF run god tier pride because of bs5 sniper vets and TH/SS termies that can sweep

I don't know if any rights are straight shit other then maybe that one breacher focused one, which is probably really good in ZM games

Praetors work as either a work a day beat stick to mulch other guys not particularly combat oriented characters or chewing through blobs with the help of their body guards/deathstar. Its almost always safer to just shoot an enemy deathstar apart then engage it in CC if your a legion that doesn't have some mad powerful melee lawn mower of its own

if your legion has access to some special way of getting MoTL, or a character that provides neat buffs probably use them (like running Rask, who provides an AoE shooting buff, in a reaping army, which is based around heavy weapon shooting)

two 20 mans is a fine starting point, but have some other scoring units, especially ones who can effectively move into the enemies deployment zone and cause havok/take points

mostly just try to run whats cool and fluffy, and even though the best kinds of games are the ones where both players aren't pulling any punches, try not to be too overboard with optimization

>>48258472
Because he asked for a "standard build". Theres nothing more standard to work towards than legion squads termies and dreads.

Once you have those basics you can move into whatever RoW or organisation you want, with the exception of the more specialised RoWs, like ravenwing or tank companies, as you say, but he didnt ask for those, he asked for a standard build.

>>48258555
Thanks, that's pretty much all I wanted. What about any of the support squads? Im not sure if a squad of plasmaguns or meltas is worth it at 5man sizes are they?

Honestly Im not looking at much more than the basic crusade list, I play SW and they don't have any special rules yet, but I was considering using the blackshield rules.

>>48258608
SW will most likely get CC advantages so going with BaC isn't that bad an idea as you get boltguns, pistols and ccw for everyone.

Support squads will in most cases get dead as soon as possible, so increasing squad size is usually a must.

Anyone know where I could get some luna wolves etched brass? I really hope to convert horus and wanted to cover up the eyes.

>>48258608

IMO, if I wanted to run a support squad it would basically only be for backfield objective camping with volkite guns, in general I have a bad history with plasma guns and avoid them like the plague unless its on a 2+ platform or a vehicle

if you think you will very desperately need anti 2+ save units you could take a vindicator or medusa, or if you want to absolutely nope one very expensive unit with your own very expensive unit, seekers with combi-plasmas in a LR (to gain scout) with PE against whatever you want to nope will probably do the job, and afterwards they can run around with bs5 and special ammo capping backfield points (since new FAQ gave them implacable advance)

A Thanar Cynis, because it's a fucking sweet machine.

Since Russ will be finished and probably on pre-order, maybe a preview of an upcoming character, e.g. Ahriman.

I imagine that the Red Scorpions will be taking a lot of space though since they are the poster chapter for bringing 30k shit into 40k, but fuck em.

It really depends on the legion, since they get different buffs. It helps if you narrow it down to a few legions you're actually interested in and then asking about them - the 1d4chan article is pretty helpful for starters. You generally want two 10-20 man tactical squads and a contemptor or two, but the rest (and how big your squads should be) is legion-dependent.

I'm not a fan of 2 BaC-box builds. Too much infantry and not enough heavy weapons for the number of points it gives you. Two boxes worth of teminators and two contemptors can work fine, but 60 tacs is often too much.

>>48260124

Two boxes gives you 8 missile launchers, 8 heavy bolters, 8 plasma guns, 8 meltaguns and 8 flamers. You should be able to make support squads with those.

Nothing stops you from turning them into other than tacticals.

>>48260277
no it gives you 6 of them, not 8. you can mke small support squads but if you actually want a 10 man squad youd still have to buy more

That would be rather unfair. I did say that this is to be played as an introductory list for people who have never played 30k before.

I'm back in the hobby after a 15 year absence and what I see in 40k scares me, but HH looks fantastic. Only thing is... I'm confused by how the books are structured.

Suppose I want to play an Alpha Legion army. Do I still need book 3 for rules, or is it just for fluff now? And what's the difference between the two red books on the FW site?

THE HORUS HERESY - LEGIONES ASTARTES: AGE OF DARKNESS ARMY LIST
https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-NL/The-Horus-heresy-legiones-Astartes-Age-of-Darkness-Army-List
replaces the Legiones Astartes Crusade Army List book (and is currently on pre-order).

THE HORUS HERESY LEGIONES ASTARTES: AGE OF DARKNESS LEGIONS
https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-NL/The-Horus-Heresy-Legiones-Astartes-Age-of-Darkness-Legions
has the currently available Legion special rules (and has been out for a while now).

HH Book 6 contains additional Rites of War and the initial rules for the White Scars, Blood Angels and Dark Angels, a later Red Book (a follow-up to the Age of Darkness Legions book probably) will roll them into the rest of the set.

My apologies for the all caps titles, but FW decided that those needed to be in caps for some reason.

>>48260667
I agree with you on 2W thing, but Gorgons will walk through any small arms fire like nothing. Still, they should get more tech.

>>48260667
all 2W does is make plasma ineffective against them. all of the other decent anti TEQ options will still just ID them. they were supposed to be the premier terminator unit after all

its the 24x BS5 rapidfire plasmashots per unit combined with it that makes them insane

>>48260667
>Especially when IH and DG were the resilient ones
you forgot salamanders

Honestly though, legion unique terminators being extra tough isn't something I mind that much. I'd be fine with everyone getting that 2W TEQ pie.

I'm thinking about starting Word Bearers. If I take 3 20 man tac squads with dark channeling and apothecaries to run screaming across the board would that be a solid base for the army?

>>48260783
They are almost-entirely cyberyzed marines. You'd think the IH terminator-replacement unit would be more resilient than a run if the mill Cataphractii, right?
At least give them a 4++ and FnP for Empra's sake
>>48260846
I didn't. Those 2W do make sense, but their resilience was more about tenacity and "against all odds" thing, and their LA rules deliver.

>>48260850
Why not get daemons to run screaming into the enemy's guns for you?

>>48260850
I wouldn't take more than two blobs. Grab a dreadnought talon or some support squads to run alongside them.

Some units are worth complaining for. I remember the SoH's rants back on HH1, and they were completely justaeified.

>>48261329
Jesus Christ anon.

>Anacharis Scoria (315)
At 1250 points I think most people can agree this is pretty absurd, you are effectively bringing a primarch to what's barely a 1000 point game. Couldn't you start with a less expensive warlord and drop them down to second in command replacing them with Scoria at higher point levels?

>Tech Thralls
Honestly doubt your ability to successfully hold any objectives. They will instantly collapse in an assault and die very easily to even mundane bolter shooting.

>Castellax with Darkfire Cannons
Is this your attempt at anti-tank? I mean you shouldn't need much at such a low point level but Darkfire cannons only pen AV 12+ on a 6 IIRC which is hardly reliable if you are only taking two. I would suggest something like thallax with meltabombs and possibly tank hunters. Also can hold objectives better than the thralls thanks to T 5, 3 wounds, and FnP 6+.

Honestly I'm not sure whether to look at this as a poor attempt to be OP or just a weird obsession with Scoria to the point where you spend 20% of your points on him at low point levels. My honest suggestion is to drop Scoria and add him in at higher point levels if that is possible (don't play escalation) if not I would probably drop the castellax for some thallax with meltabombs. Any more saved points can be reinvested into the thalls to give them FnP or just add bodies.

>>48260488
Any fine particulate is a carcinogen if you inhale it. What makes FW resin bad, is the way in which it breaks off the piece when you sand it, its very sharp. Using a resin from an unknown supplier like chinaman is fucking retarded. Take precautions if you do, clean and sand it outside then douse the fucker until theres no exposed resin and make sure you wash your hands thoroughly after using it.

Christ, I dread to think the hysteria if models were still made out of lead.

honestly most of the shit you get from china comes off sprue anyway.

once you paint it and varnish it a few times you wont even be touching resin ever again. theres no reason not to use chinese resin.

id still rather fw just made everything in plastic though

It's true, resin dust will cause you problems. Doesn't matter whose resin it is, you should avoid dry sanding unless you use a mask (a good one).

Chinaman stuff off-gasses some interesting chemicals before you prime it, but you can let it air out before assembly and you'll be mostly fine.

FnP WEs arent safe footslogging since they only get the +1FNP in the enemies deployment zone, which they wont live long enough to get to.

>Never heard that, As far as I've seen SoH were the original spiky marines while the Word Bearers made curved horns fashionable.
Could be true. I've seen pics of both with spikes, but they just looked more in place on the IW to me. I always thought it was SoH= Topknots, WB=Daemons, runes, and horns, IW= Spikes and Decimation.

Y'know, now that I think about it I think I read somewhere that IW and SoH started to use spiked bonding studs around the same time.

>>48262694
Still have to get both of them under the 25% limit though.

>>48262682

They're gonna be released when they get to that book which could be 2 years from now or something, FW hinted at that being a future book then BL published this a while ago.

>Dorn is so imperial even his nose is aquiline.

>GW put up a tutorial for painting SoH if you're interested in it.

Yeah I saw it, not too impressed.
I'll be using my airbrush so I got FW's airbrush paints, I just needed a lighter tone for the final zenithal highlight.

As for the spikes, I've seen both SoH and IW wearing them, though in both the FW books and Visions of Heresy they seem more prevalent with Sons of Horus.

I do wish FW released spiked shoulderpads, I'm way too autistic to use 3rd party bits.

>>48262808
I like Dorn's battlequiff.

>>48262830
I don't see any reason why you wouldn't find spikes among some element of every single legion.

>>48262790
>>your whole 1k army list is just 2 primarchs and a handful of veterans/terminators
You literally cannot field them both at 1k assuming Omegon costs anywhere near as much as Alpharius. Even at 1500k your army will be a handful of tiny vet or terminator squads that can't accomplish anything before dying.

>>48260192
30k is literally no better than 40k anon. You got to remember, the 2nd big wave of players on the boat were the chaos players who loved their cheesy ass 3.5 edition Codex (and haven't shut up about it since), who were the Tau fags of their time and are still, to a man, insufferable

>>48263207
with primarchs chosen you could

>>48263262
At least it isnt as imbalanced. The worst legion can still hold their own against the stronger ones.

In a game between orks and eldar with players of equal skill and experience, the eldar will win 9/10 times

>>48263262
I, for one, am an Imperial Guard player. I was going to do allied Chaos Space Marines until the new allies matrix kicked me in the nuts, so I gave up and just went with Militia and Traitor Legions instead.

>>48263321
Truth.

The online community might not be any better, but I would rather have a game closer to balance and a shitty online community than an unbalanced cluster fuck as well as a shitty online community.

>>48263347
I just gave up on CSM after 4e codex and started using Codex: SM for my traitors. For one it made sense since they were later fallen Marines and GW themselves said, for example, in WD303 that it's perfectly fine to use Codex: SM for non-legion renegades. And lately I've been able to use IG as cultist allies and thanks to Malefic, I can even summon daemons.

>>48263299
Well first off they would need to be the same HQ slot or something because Primarch's chosen removes your Lord of War. Second off Alpharius costs 415 points. Double that for 830 and it leaves you 170 points to spend. A naked five man vet squad costs 125 points meaning you can't get the minimum 2 required.

i wish we knew what was in the new calth box.

leaks should be coming out sometime soon if the release is this fall

>>48260229
Know how I know you don't play 30k?
You don't know how that list is completely illegal. What a shit troll. Can't even TROLL right.

>>48261185
That's a rape ape if I ever saw one

What if Omegon had the 'Can only be taken in Loyalist armies' rule to prevent you from using two primarchs at once?

>>48261601
I can't stop laughing

Looks like a fun list. Wanna play my Iron Hands

Actually owning models.
Feels good.

>>48261601
Phosphex rule is stupid. Just make it so that units hit by it must move next turn (to get away from the burning shit/put themselves out) or make dangerous terrain tests for all the models. After that the stuff has no other effect.

Laying down 51 markers of moving dangerous terrain a turn is just insanity I'd expect from Ward.

>>48263321
Which is nice, I grant you that.
But eldar faggotry and Tau fags are now just Spartan deathstars, phospex everywhere, and Mechanium. Fluffy lists might due SLIGHTLY better here, but the WAAC is just as strong (example dual typhon lists, etc).

>Not wanting to turn the entire Battlefield into a toxic hellhole that nothing can live in.

>>48261601

they should have just made them shoot a single large blast template that got hot (since rapiers aren't as safe of a platform as a medusa), that way it doesn't take 19 fucking years to resolve

>>48260394
It's interesting, because all you have to do to make this genuinely fluffy is take 6x20 tactical squads instead of 2x10.

>>48263726
Before I found out BAngels were on the horizon I wanted to do IW. My list was 3x20 tacs with nuncios and 3 medusas and two squads of heavy bolter rapiers.

>>48263787
HQs?

>>48263787
>Bangels on the horizon

Yeah, in like 2 years

>>48263726
i was going to try running 5x20 WE tacs with apothecaries, as a joke. but im burnt out on painting white after the first 60 so fuck it.

>>48263801
It was a Warsmith, my fluffed out dude 'Saloknir,' Terran-born loyalist Warsmith. He ended up becoming a background character and friend to my BA praetor.

>>48263811
They got their LA rules and wargear so that's good enough for me to play. Wanted to get out of 40k ASAP. All my opponents abandoned 40k anyway.

Why do they look soooooo old? All Primarchs are the same age, and not even Angron looks so fucked up, maybe Mortarion and Perturabo, I guess. I know it's not fair to compare them to Sanguinius, but they're the same age, and the only person that looks older than Dorn's wrinkled face is goddamed Malcador, and turns out he has a mane too.
It is funny how the Emperor looks younger than his children

The idea that GW would deny any new channel for vast profits if a competitor might slightly benefit DOES sound like something Kirby might do. That was his exact response to the asswhipping CH gave him, after all. But at this point, I'm sure Rountree will heed his bean-counters and seek EVERY opportunity to reverse the company's tailspin.

Like his job depended on it ...

Everyone says CH beat GW but look at the current situation between the two companies. CH isn't even a well known or popular third party anymore except for that lawsuit trivia. Guys like Puppets War, Scibor, Anvil Industries, and the new Wargames Exclusive are the real winners.

an illegal list, all infantry units must ride a transport or other vehicle :^) so bike or jumppack and its legal again.
