Opening Day aftermath Sub-Edition
Oi, you gitz, did we cover every aspect of the Opening Day? In the last thread we discussed FW's policies and how they keep the world afloat by shafting IWfags, the new date for Inferno and what the Imperial Pillar Men are getting was discussed, we explained why you can't make a Jetbike using Land Speeder parts, we explained a few things and there was also some EC fluff arguments plus much more in the last thread >>48322648

Good luck moving in that MkIII when the backpack gets hit, MkV you can probably get going again with some chewing gum and good thoughts

At least with MkIII you won't have to worry about surviving getting hit. MkV means that the guy who takes your armor will get it going again with some chewing gum and good thoughts.

>>48328554

Something about seekers having heavy shots doesn't sit right with me, their fluff describes them as fast moving, close range marksmen who don't have the advantage of being able to stay still and line up shots like a sniper does.

And yet one of their ammo types means they have to stand still and line up shots

Not complaining about ranged AP2 though
>>
>>48328665
I don't see anything about them being some fast moving run and gun types. Their entry says they identify enemy personnel and take them down with precision shots in the middle of a battle, though they lack the luxury of range like recce squad snipers.

MkIV was invented to replace MkII, which was breaking down due to old age, and was difficult to repair. Vets were probably offered prefferential access to MkIV
As such, vets either wear their trusty MkII or switched to MkIV

You're right, that wasn't worded in the best way, but I think you're also missing the point here
>>
>>48329133

The only thing top quality about Mk II was the armor plates, which weren't even good enough as Mk III's existence proves. The cabling was far too massive and the power plant was far too primitive. This is why Mk IV improved all of those things, and added better sensors to boot. The only thing Mk IV couldn't replicate was the complicated armor rings.
>>
>>48329382
I get what you mean, but officers and vets would still have first access to the new gear. Sure some might not take it, but some would, especially in legions like the EC that care too much about aesthetics. Since I play EC I use them as the base for most of my comparisons. Sure Iron Warrior and Fist vets might have Mk II or III but EC with their love of art and aesthetics might take the Mk IV because "this armour is totally fabulous."

On the IWs side, that's because they probably wouldn't even recieve a resupply. But DG, IW, IF and probably Sallies wouldn't care much about MkIV, considering MkIII lasts enough and their battle tactics need heavier armour over mobility

I've always reserved Mk III for dudes with hardened armour, which with the changes to breachers is nobody now.

Hey guys, I'm a bit new. I recently received the SoH BAC set as a gift for my birthday. Funny thing is, I've no idea how to paint or build models and my interest in 30k only extended as far as the lore and the BL novels. Anyone have any tips for me?

GW have a bunch of videos on their channel that teach you how to paint without it looking like complete dogshit

and for fucks sake thin your fucking paints
>>
>>48330434
Perturabo.
>>
>>48330305
Alright, step 1:
Go to Warhammer TV and look at their painting guide for the Sons of Horus.
Step 2:
Purchase equipment and things you'll need, like brushes, paints, moldline remover (the back of a honby knife is useful for this, though I just stick to GW's moldline remover), clippers to remove things from the sprue, and some other things. Keep in mind that you'll need to be extra careful with resin as resin dust is a carcinogen. Ask around for the stuff you'll need to work with resin.
Step 3:
Assemble your models, take care to remove moldines, dryfit them before gluing, and if there are parts that would obscure things, such as the arm holding the bolter covering the chest, leave those unattached and paint them while they're seperate. You can glue them on once you're finished.

I might be forgetting somethings, but I'm a bit tired right now, sorry. Remember that only the FW parts are resin. Everything in the BaC box is plastic.

Oh, and another tip is THIN YOUR PAINTS. Post your first model on here and the /wip/ thread so we can bully you to get better. That's all I can think of for now.
>>
>>48330434

google sons of horus paint schemes until you find a guide with the color you like

like 'how to paint sons of horus' and look at as many guides as you can find, find the color you like the best, and do what they did.

if you like the color in the video then go for it, but i know for some of their videos the colors are total shit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAbkWeJK8As
heres their video, if you like their green then go for it, if you want a different green then youll have to google around a bit.

for example though, their ultramarine color is totally wrong (and the inbred mongoloid in this vid is annoying af)

I bought the Sicaran Venator and the only warped part was the floor because of how thin it was. I used copious amounts of hot water and fixed it though. Just dry fit everything before thinking.

The Accelerator Autocannon looks like it's guaranteed to bend with the season and shipping. again, lots of hot water should fix that.

The only thing I hated on the kit was the sprue holds on the top part. They're humongous blocks strutting the part to the sprue that damn near require a jeweler saw and some files to remove.

The Great Crusade was only 2 centuries old when the Heresy broke out.
This is my whole problem with the entire heresy, the time from the Emperor reveals himself to being interred on the throne seems way too fast. IMO it should be something like

>>
>>48331560

The Heresy is supposed to be an utterly catastrophic event that almost causes the Imperium to collapse, worse than anything that followed in the next 10,000 years. It pretty much has to be relatively brief compared to 40k wars and the Crusade; if the Imperium could survive being in this apocalyptic civil war for over a century it must not have been all that bad. That's just the normal 40k state of affairs.

>Is there a way to make Seekers troops?

No, AL get their own Seekers as troops in the Headhunter Leviathal RoW but vanilla Seekers are always FA.

HH forumware marines are 8mm tall. In 8mm scale, that would mean they're the height of an average human male. They'll be on the small side but might be passable. HH forumware vehicles and titans are all 6mm scale and will look small.

I have a ton of OG Epic stuff, so I'm fucked.

I might still get new-AT, but only for small scale titan-on-titan combat. The prices will probably keep me from expanding much. As we worked out in previous threads, an 8mm Warlord should be almost as high as a 40k knight (as tall if you count up to the top of the 8mm Warlord's carapace-mounted weapons).

on sources:
HH Book 3 has a few IF and IW ship profiles. And there's that Macragge's Honour comic book. In it, the UM ship looks like a Battlefleet Gothic Emperor-class ship except with an armored prow, and the WB ship is a BFG Battle Barge. Visions of Heresy also has ship pictures and they mostly look like BFG Imperial Navy classes.

real answer:
Most of the ships, especially capital ships, that you see in BFG were around in 30k. The Imperium and Astartes had a mix of 40k Imperial-style ships with beak prows and 40k Chaos-style ships that look like daggers held flat.

The ship fluff is all half-baked, even in the BFG rulebook itself (e.g. the Armageddon-class battlecruiser is described as being based on the Acheron-class when they look nothing alike and the Armageddon is really a Lunar with two lance turrets on top). In HH fluff, including the FW books, every legion seems to have a Gloriana-class battleship as their flagship. That's a class that was made up for 30k; it isn't mentioned in 40k/BFG. Which is fine, but HH Book 3 shows an Iron Warriors Gloriana-class ship that looks like a bulkier Space Marine battle barge while every other depiction of a Gloriana-class ship has it looking more like an Imperial Navy battleship. I think it means no one's really thought this through.

Calas Typhon's ship, the Terminus Est. In the real-life timeline, the model was released as a "special character" based on the Chaos Despoiler variant and featured in the 2003 Eye of Terror campaign. In 40k it's 100% Nurgly.

The BFG fluff has the Despoiler-class battleship as having been invented in M36. Oops. So they retconned it and said that the Despoiler-class was based on old blueprints they'd found for the Terminus Est, which was unique when it was built in the Great Crusade. Never mind that the other Chaos battleship class, the Desolator, has the same main hull and "dates back to the very founding of the Imperium."

(Interesting that they were designing Chaos-looking ships in M36, given that those shapes are assumed to make ships prone to Chaos corruption. That's their reasoning for giving the two sides different-looking ships.)
>>
>>48331677
For one thing, standardisation was even less of a thing than in 40k - the forge worlds were more independent, and if a legion force found a cool ship they could usually reclaim it for their legion, leading to many legions having unique and deadly ships in their fleets

That one looks like it's related to the BFG Vengeance-class grand cruiser, which was described as transitionary between the two different styles. Not exactly the same; the Vengeance doesn't have an up-armored prow or prow torpedoes, and it has broadside lances and no "planetary assault petard" (which sounds similar to the bombardment cannons that Space Marines use in BFG). But close enough to be in the Vengeance et al grand cruiser family.

In 40k BFG they suggest that different forge worlds build the same classes of ships with visual differences, same deal as with titans or lasguns. Naturally GW couldn't release as wide a variety as the fluff says exists.

But I'm still annoyed at having no idea what a Gloriana-class battleship is. Class is a pretty specific designation.

The largest ships (after the Furious Abyss and her sister ships, and the Phalanx) was the ~20km Gloriana Class, most of which were legion flagships, and all were custom jobs.
The largest known Gloriana-class vessels were the Vengeful Spirit (SoH), Conqueror (WE), Hrafnkel (SW), and Iron Blood (IW).

For other things we don't see in 30k there's also the Goliath Class Battleship

Fleet-wise, the Sons of Horus, Dark Angels and Imperial Fists had the largest fleets (Fists largest and most diverse of all), with the latter two specialising in void warfare to a significant degree, though other legions also have some notable fleets - all the White Scars ships are modified to be fast, the Death Guard having a high proportion of heavy and often unique capital ships etc.

Hello /tg/, here's the third version of my Legio Cybernetica list that you've been helping me buildimprove. Thoughts?

Legion Cybernetica, 1990/2000

HQ
Scoria, 315
- Xanathite Abeyant


TROOPS
Tech-thralls, 95
- x20, pure thought, caparace

Thallax Cohort, 400
- x8, heavy chainblades, Ferrox

Castellax Maniple 1, 270
- x2, Targeting Arrays x2, Flamers x4, Frags

Castellax Maniple 2, 270
- x2, Targeting Arrays x2, Flamers x4, Frags


FAST ATTACK
Vorax Maniple, 375
- x5, Frags


HEAVY SUPPORT
Thanatar, 265
- Targeting Array


Scoria joins the Vorax and probably outflanks. Rite of the Beast will go on these guys.

Thralls stay back and either hold the home objective or wrap around the thanatar.

The Castellax march forward. With flamers and mauler cannons they want to stick close to the enemy but not charge.

The Thallax start deployed, and zip around looking for proper targets/catching objectives.

Allies.

Speaking of which, could someone point me to the rules about using RoWs in allied detachments. Like for example, a RoW that says you can't take an allied detachment could you take it AS an allied detachment? Or if you need an extra HQ when a allied detachment only has one slot.
>>
>>48334472

It also has ships constructed out of reinforced concrete. Whatever was that artist thinking?
>>
>>48334320
The new book has been ordered, and got some AL shoulderpads too. Beyond that I have most of the stuff I need, just need to build and paint.

Do you have a specific instance in mind? It'd probably be easier to answer that than account for every combination.
>>
>>48335744
Not him but I would guess he means something like pride of the legion or Third Company Elite
>>
>>48335716
If it says you can't take an allied detachment you can't take an allied detachment period. You only get the one AoD FOC. You can't combine Detachments like in 40k.
>>
>>48335762
What if the Allied detachment takes the no allied detachment RoW?
>>
>>48335716
I feel in that case you look to Blackshields Chymerae (sp?), in that you can take them AS allies, but can't take an allied detachment of them.

Plus, you'd have to play at 2k+ as you'd need two praetors for two RoWs.

But yeah, taking them as allies seems like the correct choice, but Thallax make me want to just start an army of them. Mmm.... I just need to see mechanicum color schemes and such for inspiration.
>>
>>48335794
There is only one allied detachment in the FOC and it is it. So I imagine it's fine.
>>
>>48335810
Also, where is the Phased-Plasma Fusil statline for Thallax? I can't find it and if it doesn't have Gets Hot unlike the Photon Thruster I'll be so happy, since Armoured Ceramite wrecks Melta.
>>
>>48335811
Since one is the "Primary" and the "Allied" detachment is the one taking the No Allied detachment, you're technically not taking another Allied detachment. At least that is my interpretation. You should probably ask on the FW facebook site if you need some sort of semi-official clarification.

Blued steel is more of a black finish. Graphite powder over black primer, plus some blue wash.

The FAQ said an allied detachment could take a RoW but only if it meets the requirements (MotL, compulsory units while restricted bt the allied FoC size, etc.). Say, the new Crusade Imperialis and new LACAL were posted some threads ago...but what about the updated legion specifics book?
That would have updated RoW requirements, I presume?

So, with the initial point reduction to breachers, running ten man squads is more efficient than before, in lists with lots of ap4 templates, wouldn't the hardened armor have value of firing incredibly close to your models? Say you are using a ride the iron fire list, if you used ap4 templates as zoning shots with your breachers on the front lines, wouldn't there be value in them being extra likely to survive if it scatters poorly? Then with additional shots, the zeroing in of you heavier ap3-2 blasts becomes extremely accurate.
>>
>>48338288

i've been out of the running due to ISP problems
how much is a base breacher squad now?
>>
>>48338309
200, additional Breachers are 15.
>>
>>48338288
Same anon here.

In general, low bs Template weapons become more effective too as the scattering into your own units becomes less of a threat. This could even make automated emplacements not have bad after the initial zoning shots are fired, leaving the iron fire markers that make your blasts not scatter if they are close enough.
>>
>>48338309
200 points, though the cost per extra man has been increased to 15 points because being an Iron Warriors player is suffering.

Can we stop and consider the insanity for a moment that not only do vets cost less per model then Breachers, you can actually get two squads of 10 vets (ie getting taxed twice), who have 2 attacks base, bolter/pistol/ccw, and their tactics, for LESS then a 20 man breacher blob

Eh, thank you for putting the idea together I guess (and also you're welcome, a joint thanks/welcome). I've made generators before, and I've also modded other people's stuff for things like legibility or whatever. Knights-Errant seemed like a good concept, and as I got into it I saw the opportunity to apply likelihood modifers to skills based on Legion and so forth. Couldn't resist, really.
>>
>>48338428
They still get Nuncio Vox as an option, 10 points.
The Vexilla is 15, pricing unchanged from the previous list.

Knights-Errant however could know, so I altered that.

That reminds me, I haven't actually done a roll on my own rewrite myself.

18 - Salamanders
2 - General Close Range Preference
2(+2) - Balanced Weight Preference
7 - Ignored, Balanced Attack-Rate Preference
6 - Praetor when inducted, so an old-timer
15 - Transport Tank Crew (read: uses Land Raiders as personal transport a lot)
1 - Experienced in Carapace Armour and Cameleoline. Former Vigilator?
1 - Reknowned and Heralded Champion
8 - 41% Sanity Waterline
3 - Okay Team Player, can be difficult
6 - Not Psychic

So this is an interesting build. A once-beloved Salamanders Vigilator-Turned Praetor with a close-ranged attack preference, who still likes his carapace armour but also likes a transport tank-attack approach, who is now losing his marbles. Sounds like fun.

The mechanicum hacks around quite a bit, even their references to "scrap code" are essentially alluding to hacks or similar processes, see any hostile interactions between factions of the Mechanicum.

Later on the Dark Mechanicum will start combining daemons with offensive software, the end result is quite impressive, if the few novels that include it are any indication.

The 2nd Grey Knight novel, Dark Adeptus by Ben Counter, has a fair bit of this if I recall correctly.
