Warhammer 40k General

How viable is a Tzeentch based CSM army?

Fuck, I miss 5th edition.
>tfw Black Templars/Orks player
>tfw the Assault phase got fucked over
>tfw the Templars don't have an army book anymore
>tfw Orks are now shit
I miss 5th edition, it was comfy as fuck. I've been playing Kill Team a lot though and I really like the rules!

>>49578265
As viable as the tzeentch daemons you ally in

Serious question: What is more likely to happen before 41k (or even 50k for that big of a change)

The Tau surviving long enough to super advance technologically and even biologically and become the dominant species/empire of the galaxy, if not the actual winners of this war.

Or them getting squat'd.

>>49578343
The former, because GW can't sell overpowered Megazords to children and tournament players if they squat the army.

After watching Aliens, I know have the hankering to make a Colonial Marines Kill Team. I'm thinking of using the Tempestus codex to differentiate them from the rank and file Guardsmen, but I dunno what to use for minis. Do some minor conversions for standard Guardsmen? But if so, what would I use for the Pulse Rifles? Or does anybody know of 28mm Colonial Marines?

So did anybody collect all the GSC leaks that one glorious anon posted last night?

>>49578524
I saved them. Give me a few minutes and I'll upload them to an Imgur gallery.

Curious, which is the worst?
Because personally I find paying for a 6++ sucks pretty hard to grunts
>Though +1 to invuns is pretty swell, enjoy 4++/3++.

So my cousin wants to start 40k, specifically Salamanders.

His birthday is in two weeks and my Uncle asked me what he could get him for the game.
So far all he has is the SM Start Collecting and a Drop Pod.

I told him that B@C would be his best bet and then I was going to get him a box of Assault Marines and Devastators so he can start with his Demi-Company after he gets some more transports.

I play Necrons and was wondering if SM Devastators come with enough of their weapon choices (same with Assault Marines.)

Do the tactical marines in B@C also have enough specia/heavy weapons if he wants all of them to have, say, flamers and meltas or something?

>>49578968
Mark of Khorne. It only functions in combat, which in Shootyhammer edition is a big deal, and unlike the Mark of Slaanesh it only functions in the first ROUND of combat. So you get very little use out of the points you pay for the thing.

>>49579001
you do know that those B@C marines are MkIV right? they will look different to the other marines in his force, not sure if he wants that.

>>49579132
Go ahead

New player here, CSM and Daemons caught my eye. I have my 7e Rulebook and other hobby supplies. Just trying to decide on a Codex and then paint scheme.

Specifically Khorne and I noticed he has his own faction in the Khorne Daemonkin.

Is that a 'New Player Friendly' army to start with?

Is there anything in the new book that came out that would be good for them?

What CSM units are good for Khorne?

He has a Start Collecting and I think Bloodcrushers are cool. Maybe cool enough to get two of?

I am sure I will need those Daemon Troops but what about the Skull Cannon, is that any good?

Are Soul Grinders good enough to be my centerpiece in an army? They look amazing and seem like they are good on the table.

Why do possessed look so terrible? They have such great fluff.

My friend was telling me the Gorepack is the most necessary formation for Khorne as it is Bikes and Flesh Hounds that are really quick.

>>49579068
Well he only has 10 of the 'current(?)' tactical marines so hopefully it isn't too bad.

Is there a size difference or anything? How different is the armor?

>>49579001
B@C will stand out, also help him paint them so they don't end up on eBay straight away
For tactical marine
>3 flamers
>3 meltas
>3 plasmas
>3 heavy bolters
>3 missile launchers
>3 power sword
>3 power fist (which can be made into a lightning claw)
>3 Chainsword
>3 combi weapons, can be made into flamer plasma of melta but you only get 3 combi bolter parts to base them off

For terminators
>1 heavy flamer
>5 sets of lightning claws
>1 power sword
>5 power fists
>5 chain fists
>5 combi bolters

It's definetly a saving but will stick out

>>49579169
Oh I forgot, my two 40k friends play Sisters / Inquisition / Grey Knights and Dark Eldar / Eldar / Harlequins.

>>49579068

Salamanders are a First Founding Chapter, why wouldn't they have MkIV mixed in with beakies and MkVIIs?

Even more funny when you look at the shitty TH formations. Oh, you wanted MoK Warptalons, did you? Well that's a disordered charge, so you can forget about it

>>49578734
please stop spamming this shitty list in every thread.

>>49579169

Daemonkin lists frequently run minimum sized Cultist squads. They are mobs of 5 point grunts who run in, maybe get a kill or two with their pistols, and then die, which in turn increases your favor with Khorne to make the rest of your army stronger or to summon more daemons.

Flesh Hounds are definitely good right now, because they have multiple wounds and Scout. Bloodcrushers are similar in function but lack Scout and cost more points, making them a riskier bet.

Possessed are trash desu. If you want good space marine units for KDK, take Terminators or Bikes.

>>49579001
Forget about devastators, I think the new kit may have 2 of some of the weapons like Missiles, Multimeltas and Lascannons, but as you'd expect from GW's advanced Jewry, there's only one Gravcannon. Just check the sprue on the site. It's better than nothing of course, but you may be better off buying two boxes of either Devs or Assaults.

As for MKIV, they look fine, no problem. LIke the other anon says, they'd be right at home in Salamanders anyway.

Nope. If you check the site, there's two of every heavy weapon. It even lists the box contents on the store page.

>>49579429
>WAAAAH THERES ONLY ONE GRAV CANNON
Why not just take other weapons, grav isn't the be all and end all of devastators uses

>>49578343
>become the dominant species/empire of the galaxy, if not the actual winners of this war.
They'll become reclusive space China with warpstorms popping up everywhere and Tyranids showing their faces everywhere

>>49579190
Don't listen to anon. MkIV is perfectly fone for Salamanders to have, and since they're a First founding chapter they're more likely to have them than anyone else.

The bonus of getting BaC is that it can work as a 30k force as well.

>>49579466

Is this good? I just ordered one because it's a sweet-model but would three chimeras be the smarter option?

>>49579169

Pretty much this; >>49579392 The Traitos' hate book is just slightly less smelly garbage than what it was, so if you are even considering CSM, and Khorne at that, go KDK.
Soul Grinders are pretty good, great for AA as well, so definitely get at least one. Beyond that you'll naturally need a Bloodthirster and some Daemon Princes, maybe a CSM biker lord, and look into various alternatives for Fleshounds since the finecrap models are monopose suckage, I'd just go with WFB Chaos warhounds. Cultists could be done with pretty much anything, the AoS barbarians look pretty cool, but their scale is fucking retarded so avoid them if that annoys you.
Maulerfiends are also not too shabby in KDK, as well as Heldrakes, and if you want to have the really cool stuff in the end, get a unit of Blood Slaughterers from China, maybe a Khytan or Brass Scorpion if you don't think a couple of Thirsters are neough.

Their deterioration is more a case of sanity and general sapient processes rather than actual capability. The lower-ends who cannot process emotions or the necessities of true sapience seem to be more or less unchanged, with the exception of the Destroyer Virus, Flayed One Plague and the occasional slight eccentricity in their otherwise completely emotionless robotic routines.

>>49579469
If you're doing Devs at all, you'll obviously want to be able to field a squad with all the effective weapons, of which Grav is certainly one.

Just get two boxes and swap in spare bodies and you're set.

>>49579543
3 chimeras would be better, this is expensive, has little offensive capabilities, and can only hold 3 infantry squads and a platoon command.

And no fire points mean it's only really good for transporting melee squads, and seeing as Ogryn/Bullgryn are poop, what exactly is it doing better than 3 chimeras, which are more tactically flexible.

Should have bought the Praetor or the sexy Malcador Infernus.

How did the Angels of Death formations shake out, anyway? The Iron Hands looked fun on paper at least.

Do you REALLY need to transport a big blob for some reason, or Ogryns? THen I guess it's good. Still a waste of a LoW slot though, just like the open topped one Krieg has.

Good if you want to specialize in killing infantry and light vehicles. You could go for the twin-linked Autocannon instead of the Assault Cannon, but the AC's multiple shots and rending makes it better against MEQ infantry.

It's not even capable of transporting a big blob, if it was Transport capacity:50, then it would be a reliable way of delivering a mega-blob but 35 is 3 squads and a couple characters.

Is there really any reason to give tac squad sergeants a chainsword rather than a bolter

>>49579641
Note that Orikan's empowered form has similar stats to that of a C'tan and there's lots of hints that he's preparing for some super sekrit event (he doesn't actually go super all the time and in-fluff it's something he's been working towards forever). All this suggests that he's got some ascension-through-circumstance plot going on.

>>49579672

You can get a 30-strong Blob Squad and their Platoon Command, or three Veteran squads and a CCS. That isn't terrible, though I'd probably price it at 200 rather than 250 points.

Nah, both of those are supposed to be used as allies. Just go IG, use the models as veterans instead, since stormtroopers are kind of pointless, and go on form there.

Most are good, but few are as OP as free transports so they don't get as much attention as the Gladius.

>+1 to FNP for being IH

>>49579642
Extremely specialized and you're going to have a bad time against tailored or meta-lists. Perfectly possible to do 1500 in casual games using the two, though most would recommend adding a small contingent of a third force to fill in the gaps that the MT/OA can't.

I feel like you could probably use some heavy-hitting vehicles from the Astra Militarum. They can be quite fluffy and aren't seen that much these days in cheeselists (with a few exceptions).

Generally I think most well-rounded lists would rather see Militarum artillery on the other board edge instead of a Knight.

>>49580028
The free gibs are nice, but beyond that I don't see the reason to buy it now either, even if it's a lot better than what it was as a weekly. Mostly because 50% of the mag is usually dedicated to AoS, which means I'm paying for half the content, that may or may not be interesting.

So for the Imperial Knight what kind of loadout is considered best all around? I figure since the TS are shooty and the Assassins are more of a scapel for carving out particular targets, probably best to make the Imperial Knight the hammer?

>>49580155
The rapid-fire battle cannon is an extremely good choice and the Thunderstrike gauntlet usually isn't worth the downside. Pretty much all of the ranged weapons are good and generally speaking the icarus autocannon isn't worth the points unless you absolutely need it.

AoS is just too similar to 40k to be of interest even visually. Let alone from a gameplay perspective.

Yea, the best idea is usually one or two of the regular knights (magnetised, of course, so you can field any variant) and a Cerastus for special purposes.

They're separate units and award VP's/First Blood just like anything else. As >>49580588 says, if an empty Rhino can hold an objective, it damn well ought to give up a point when it dies. Hide them behind LoS-blocking terrain if you're so worried about losing First Blood.

Can I buy a Raider/Venom for a Kabalite Warrior squad of 20 Warriors? I don't have to embark them in the transport right? I also know that i can't just embark another unit in that dedicated transport before deployment, but I can embark anything else in there afterwards, right?

No, that's an opinion. There is nothing to suggest that Islam is more brain-dead than any other religion after accounting for the abject poverty and resource scarcity that many of its members live in.

>>Didn't the Khan encourage his Legion to choose whatever side they thought was right and resulted in half the White Scars going traitor?

Not to my knowledge. The Khan deliberately kept his Legion out of the Heresy while he decided whether to side with Horus or the Emperor. Horus attempted to subvert the White Scars through the warrior lodges, which was one of the factors that pushed the Khan into siding with the Emperor in the end.

>>49580851

>>I was trying to decide whether or not to betray and murder you and our father

Most of the Loyalists already had doubts about the Khan. He was always closer to Horus than the Emperor, and his legion was known for being wild and hard to control. Finding that he had chosen to remain loyal was probably more of a pleasant surprise than anything else.

Blood Angels

Dark Angels
>Bike specialty with a focus on shooting as well as high durability with rerollable jinks.

DA can be high tier, very strong and fast.
BA are solid/upper middle tier.

>>49581095
DA codex is solid overall but has pretty bad internal balance. Its got some of the best units for their price in the game (Black Knights, and to a lesser extent, the Darkshroud) while also having some of the most overcosted/least useful (Deathwing terminators, our veterans/command squads unable to take jump packs or bikes). The beauty of that is that you can tailor your army for any level of play, from maximum cheese with a pure Ravenwing Strike Force to maximum uselessness (but fun!) with a Deathwing Strike Force, or bring a fun and decent list with a Lion's Blade, a Ravenwing and a Deathwing Strike force.
Also we have some really fucking fantastic models: our veterans all get robes, our company masters look great, deathwing knights/black knights are the best looking termies/bikers, and the inquisitor chaplain is both amazing as a model and in the crunch.

>>49581179
It's simply three whole boxes of MKIV veterans, which are functionally identical to 40k tacticals, and one box of Cataphractii. The only downside is that the characters and the Contemptor are monopose without any real options, and that there are some neat options missing form the others, like Volkite chargers and Plasmablasters for the Cataphractii.

Magnetising is going to be a bit tricky though, for the Cataphractii, you can get extra legion shoulderpads form FW, which will enable you to make whole arms for claws/fists, chainfists, guns and the heavy weapon, all which can be magnetised. Otherwise, I think there's not enough shoulders in the box to magnetise all arms.

>>49581267
>LionGuard
Are you the new space 0din?

I have a friend whose the closest thing to an ork mek I've met till this point in my life. Pretty sure he can manage this for me~

Just saying the value in the box is nuts and so many options you can spruce up an entire army with that shit.

>>49581267

I am a big fan of bikes, plus the knightly crusader models really appeal to me. Lion's Blade pretty much samples the green/raven/deathwings, right?

>>49581294
My fandex has two changes: Deathwing Assault gives T1 deepstrike back, and termies can charge out of deepstrike in a formation.

>>49581341
Lion's blade takes its core from the greenwing with the option to add Deathwing/Ravenwing, its pretty versatile and gives BS 3/4 on overwatch.

>>49581363

Nice. Would you happen to have a Lion's Blade list handy? if not I'll just go research it on my own, no problem.

Does anyone here know if the Daemonifuge book sold on both GW's site and Blacklibrary contain all three Daemonifuge stories? (the screaming cage, the Lord of Damnation and the Thrice-Born).

For some reason its not stated anywhere and looking at the page count it looks like its too low.

Hey guise,
So I heard 40k was so imbalanced that if you put down a round object it rolls off onto the floor.
It's so imbalanced that orks and nids can't even make it halfway across the table against all the riptides/stormsurges and/or ghost knights.

So how would you fix this, make it a bit more balanced for tournaments?
It isn't an easy question.
One idea I heard was a variable points handicap system.
So for a 2000pt army tournament: eldar would get -200pts off, so only gets 1800pts tau gets -100pts, so 1900.
Inversely orks and nids could get +100 or +200 to make up for the handicap.

What is your opinion teeg?

>>49582597
Trukks are great if you want to give the enemy free First Blood and feed them a lot of utterly worthless Trukkboyz that will die before ever achieving anything of note.

Or just keep a couple in reserve with some chaff tax-troop boyz in them to grab objectives later in the game.

You're right, ork boys should be 5 points, 3 points for armour.
Nobs are 10 points (5 point upgrade from boyz)

That leaves tons of point to spend on big stompy war machines like deff dreads battle wagons.

I wasn't expecting a painting video on the Genestealer Cults so soon.

>>49583641
Given that we've already read the book they don't have much left to leak, so why not show off the models

>>49583419

Saturady midnight Greenwich time.

which rules would you use to represent Sons of Horus in 40k? Dark Angels? maybe Raven Guard without many Scouts?

>>49583593
and thus undercosted?

>>49583503
Which is why if you want to run cultists you use the Vraks books and if you want to run CSM you use the loyalist book

>>49583667
Great, so soon.

Is stronghold assault not in the mega?
Are bunkers restricted to one unit embarked at a time, or can I put 6 Autocannon teams in a firestorm redoubt?

>>49583568
Well there's Mega Dreads and Meka Dreads, they should be over 80-100 depending on loadout. Otherwise, yes.

>>49583671
I just use Sons of Horus rules? It's perfectly balanced as long as you play 2k points.

>>49583568

If you want to give me lootas and burnas for 10 points a pop I'm all for it.

>>49583782
Normal buildings only allow a single unit inside. I am unsure of the really big ones

>>49583597

>Big shoota/rokkit launcha 'ard boy with cybog body for 10pts. seems reasonable.

And might actually increase their potency.


>>49583605

> That leaves tons of point to spend on big stompy war machines like deff dreads battle wagons

Which also need some improvements.

There needs to be a Mek version of the regular Deff Dread that replaces all of the melee weapons with ranged ones. If Meks do it for their Gargants and Stompas, it's only logic that some would do it for smaller walkers.

And a Mek version of the Battle Wagon with a KFF. If they can put that thing on warplanes and walkers, there is no reason why they can't stick it on a battle wagon and make it cheap.

>>49583893

>If you want to give me lootas and burnas for 10 points a pop I'm all for it.

And Tank Bustas.

Seems like a bit of a mishmash. What's KDK really giving you, here?

>>49583923
There alread yis a Meka-dread and a Mekboy Junka though.
I suppose the latter could have a option to upgrade the chassis from the Junka to a proper battlewagon though, that could be neat.

>>49580387
Battle Demi-Company/Battle Company is the big one because "muh free transports".

>>49579549
I almost like Traitor's Hate. The formations are lazily designed, and the "We gotta sell our Warpsmiths" is offensive.

That said, while the "Copypaste Astartes Powers" is hilariously lazy by GW standards, they *do* give Chaos more options which never hurts (plus they make the Khorne Cabalstar scarier), and Chaos Obsec Bikers look plausible too. It looks at least easier to run a full-on "Fast" Chaos army which is something that wasn't that plausible beforehand.

I'm going to hopefully get a few more games in this weekend.

>>49584204
The flesh hounds that are getting buffed with the cabal and lord.

I roll on the new powers and go for a dog star without needing daemon allies.

>>49584142
Why the Warband for this build? If you're doing a Hound Cabalstar, why not emphasize the Daemonkin CAD and maybe grab a few Maulerfiends (unless you don't have the models?)

Also, I generally prefer giving Termicide plasma instead of Melta, because I feel more comfortable scattering within 12" vs within 6".

I would definitely try to find the points to give your Mace Sorcerer a Spell Familiar, especially since I bet he's rolling on Biomancy to try to outsmash Smashfucker.

Is mental illness part of Nurgle's shtick too?

>>49584234
I like the idea of the Junka/Speedsta becoming a Chariot for the Big Mek, so he can use it as a fighting platform. It would probably be simpler than doing something like "Mekboy Shokk Attack Gun attempts to Tank Shock."


>>49584142
Also, mind rating mine? I'm >>49584293 btw. This is a "models I have" list (hence Helbrutes instead of Havocs, leftover from DV kits), the Horrors proxied by Cultist for now, the Herald a WIP scratchbuild, etc. The Lord/Sorcerer join the Spawn.

I think it'd be a split between Nurgle and Slaanesh. Nurgle because it's technically illness/disease, but things like psych disorders could fall under Slaanesh due to obsessions with any sort of thing be it sex,perfection, body, aesthetic, etc.

Anyone have any urban base guides/tutorials?

I want some for my Genestealer Cult.

>>49584058
I'm totally gonna paint my cult in a kraken/red army style:

Armor greenish and chitin red. Don't know how to paint the cloth parts though. Would red again be acceptible? Or should I use the blue of the officers uniforms?

>>49584383
Ground colored texture paint + cork board painted like a street? Or more urban?

>>49584366
>"Mekboy Shokk Attack Gun attempts to Tank Shock."
Man, playing the Junka back in fifth with deffrolla and rolling that result was just so fucking awesome, every time.

>>49584390
Any how to guides for that? I mean something like this, but without needing Gypsum.

Forgot the pic.

Think I'm going to get the favoured of Chaos box. That possessed/ demon prince formation looks pretty nice.

I feel like a scrub for asking, but does anyone have a good Angel's Blade Strike Force list they could show or direct me to? I'm trying to put something together to build towards but I just have no idea where to begin.

>>49584475
The road part looks like texture paint on top of the cork slice. So it'd be Astrogranite>Nuln Oil/Agrax>drybrush grey. The dirt is texture paint with some small rocks in it. Which would be Blackfire earth>rocks in it> Agrax> Drybrush light brown.

So how would it be if Killa Kans were allowed to take the Ork wreckin ball as five point upgrade?

>>49584366

Could also let the Junka attack back in close combat if it takes a Wreckin Ball and a Grabbin Klaw.

>>49584605
It's gypsum, I found the guide to doing it. So pretty much replace gypsum with cork board?

Yeah. The corkboard you buy may be a bit thick, but that can be easily solved by slicing it with an X-acto knife. The method I described above is how I did this guy's base, minus the rocks.

Thinking of creating my own Space Marine chapter, is there any specific book I'll need for that to make sure I have everything I need? I don't think the SM Codex includes stuff like what kind of Homeworld, Mutations or Doctrines you can choose from and the like.

You can literaly choose anything, just make sure it's not too crazy though.

I mean there's a canon chapter of Space Marines where their thing is they're on fire, this was too much and the Inquisition killed them. Another has fucking Barraka arm blades made of bone.

>>49584616
What if... Ork vehicles upgraded with a wrecking ball/grabbing claw gained a WS value of 4 and where allowed to use them to attack anything 6" away from them at the end of each players assault phase using that WS?

Nothing else changes so you can't lock them in combat but all their vehicles are now pseudo-walkers.
They could make that Orks new gimmick, close combat weapons for vehicles.

>>49584752
>Flaming marines
...that...that wasn't actually canon though right
That was just angry marines tier fannon, right?

Nope, they were actually pretty heroic and optimistic until the inquisition murdered them all for being suspicious.

Does any of it matter in the actual game tho, do those Baraka fucks get more points in close combat or some shit? Do people with their custom SM chapters have like a sheet explaining any kind of advantages and disadvantages when playing? Or is it all head canon and nothing else.

>>49584366
You're clearly going for MSU which will never be as good as the loyalist MSU but that will only matter if you go up against grav cav.

I don't like the lord, I'd swap out the brand for the mace as it's way more effective.

Dozer blades seem like a waste

The bikers shouldn't bother assaulting imo. I always use mine to hunt targets with melta or plasma depending on your meta. In mine I need the AP1.

Are the daemons there as a summoning battery? I'd make sure I had ~ 9 - 12 warp charges if you're going to be summoning in all day.

Any kind britbongs able to upload the GSC codex ePub?

>>49584293
You're right about the Spell familiar.

I can run Daemonkin but when I do lose with the Hound Cabalstar it's because I don't take enough objectives so I figured the objective secured will help.

>>49584339
mental illness is practically what all chaos gods are meade out of

anger management problems
obsession
depression
lying disorder

you may add at will

>>49584800
Head canon, apart from a few chapters forge world have rules to, just fluff up your marines however you like anon!

>>49584800
It's pretty much all fluff. You pick a chapter tactics that moast matches the fluff.

Like say if you wanted to make some loyalist World Eaters, you might pick Space Sharks chapter tactics.

>>49584768

I think it's a splendid idea actually.

I believe there were and still are some Ork vehicles that can attack in close combat.

I remember seeing one in the Epic Armageddon video game they released recently.

I'm not sure what it's called however.
