Is it fine to use a deathwatch captain with terminator armour as Belial?

Nigga they use different bodies and arms/weapons. That would mean straight up a squad of termies & and squad of knights, which GW would more than happily advertise and charge out the ass for.

Painting harlies to a "sort of, almost there level" so I can use them in games.
Got a death jester, 6 harlies and 2 bikes.

My plan is to get one of each of their units. The troupe, sky weaver, void weaver and star weaver in a the jest formation and all the characters in a heroes path.
It only comes to about 500 points as well so it's perfect.

>>49720192
This.

Otherwise, the idea of a chaos raptor managing to kill anything is just laughable!

>>49719970
Still trying to make up my mind on a list so I can start painting for my 400 point combat patrol.

Are there any white dwarf archives left? I need 31 and 218.

I'm a Slaaneshi player.

I'm used to penis jokes.
I don't escape those jokes.
I embrace them.

Working on a DA Army with Salamanders allies.

And I have 1165 of 1500 filled with 2 DA tactical squads in rhinos, 1 Salamanders tactical squad in a drop pod, and a dev cent squad with a drop pod.

I have a Techmarine as an HQ for each, don't have bikes or servitors on them yet because that will all be decided when I need to fin tune them for their role.

My idea was a shooty army that drops in the Salamanders squads to be where I need them to go and then hold the line, or die horribly if I scatter too far from/there isn't any cover. DA tacticals shoot from metal boxes until said boxes are fucked, then continue to shoot.

I have no fast attack or heavy support and wanted the techs to follow and repair them, with the occasional pie-plate from the conversion beamer.

TL;DR I need fast attack or heavy support for Dark Angels rolling in at around 850 pts.

>>49719970
Currently holding my vow to not buy anything new model-wise until everything I own is painted. Been about 3 months into this and have made about 5000 points worth of progress.

This has made me realize I may actually need to clear space out rather than buy more shit.

I've bought $500 in waves of $100 and have yet to play a game with them there not even all painted yet what is wrong with me

>>49719897

There's always at least one bit you don't get extras of so you can't make extra dudes.

Then you didn't goof.

The only obstacle is finding a meta that your army fits comfortably in.

Got lots of great advice last thread, so here's my new list. Goal is shooty army, with techs repairing shooty support, and being pretty shooty themselves.

Salamanders are there to get close and dev cents for more fire support and ideally beamer tech protection.

Any difference between the skullcrusher juggernauts and the bloodcrusher juggernauts? I'm trying to decide which one to use for my juggerlord.

>>49721480
Archon is bad but if you want to take him, don't bother with the webway portal unless you're bringing in blasters.
Armour of misery and shadow field is a waste of points.
Any point left over can be spent on either haywire or a blaster, he doesn't really need the extra attack.

You have almost no anti-tank, what AT you do have is melee only.
Give the reavers a heat lance.
Give the talos a heat lance

Swap the incubi in the venom for 5-9 trueborn with blasters in a raider with dark lance.
give the trueborn dracon the agoniser instead.
Give the sybarites haywire grenades or drop them.

The quad gun from the defense line. Put your commander or one of his vets on it for extra BS.

>>49720217
Never. Breachers, the new troop choice, are 5-10, so in the new box they include only 10 models. You can still take the normal fire warriors in units of 12.

That looks pretty shitty.

Whats with the Nipple Horns?

>>49722066
No, the rumours that predicted the Deathwatch and Genestealer Cult codexes (before the Overkill boxed game) also told us we were going to see the return of the Primarchs, starting with a plastic Magnus kit, which was going to lead into a major End Times-scale fluff advance. It isn't going to destroy the setting as with Fantasy, but it's going to come pretty damn close.

>>49722066
Aren't we suppose to see a Loyalist Primarch returning soon?

Maybe GW actually does market research and they're appealing to the next generation of potential buyers: the pokemon go crowd

Would I be smarter taking two Ravenwing LS Vengeances, 1 Vengeance and 1 Predator, or a Vengeance and a Nephilim Jetfighter?

Or maybe some Dark Knights? Either way I have to buy a model. Obviously playing Dark Angels, and want to take a Techmarine as my HQ but I'm open to change.

>>49722176
it isn't that bad. daemon primarchs have been popping up in the lore constantly, so it isn't a massive stretch to put them into TT. it just depends on how far they take it and if they want to start bringing in other shit.

>>49722294
Long story short

They are a Chaos warband that seek to emulate the glory of their old Legion, but everything they do is a parody or a pale imitation of what it was.

Mostly, they look for relics and stuff of the past for this reason.

Their leader is weak but obscenely carismatic, and so they can usually get away by corrupting the population of the systems they visit, break their defenses, pillage what they want, and get away when imperial reinforces arrive by throwing cultists and renegades against them while they flee to the next system.

They are some real assholes.

>>49722322
Bring back Eldrad doing important shit only to get jobbed by Space Marines

Give Orks a new superpowered Ork only to get jobbed by Space Marines

Gee anon, it's not as if GW only has other factions so that they can be jobbed by Space Marines of something.

>>49722233
Honestly. The more I'm looking at Magnus the more I think I realky dislike the white-ish armour color scheme.

What sort of army would you want them to be?

Since gee dubbs wouldn't let them have the train if they came back at all, what sort of thing would they have?

What would be your reason for their return?

>>49722347
Vengeances are just not good, they have 3HP and if they jink they wont blast as well. If that Cannon gets hot you will feel real bad.

They are a glass cannon.

Black Knights are our best units, hands down.
TL Plas with a +1S Rending melee wep ontop of skilled rider for a 3+ Rerollable Jink.

Slapping a Darkshroud within 6" of them gives you the famous 2+ Rerollable Jink.

Adding a small ~500pt RW Strikeforce w/ Deathstar is a way to make any DA list more playable.

In my more competitive meta I used to run pure RW but it gets to be a one trick pony and anyone who ignores cover in anyway ruins your day.

Now I add the RWSF to my Lionsblade at 2000pts and have been having a blast.

>Give Orks a new superpowered Ork only to get jobbed by Space Marines

To be fair, the Beast fluff has been in the game since 6th edition, albeit just as a little brief note on the timeline. We all knew from the start that he was going to be an immense threat that almost overturns the Imperium, then gets killed by Space Marines, because that's what the source describes.

>>49722383
Because the new writer forgot about the "base 4 number system" they were using as a theme in the original book.

Slaanesh.
They are a splinted of the Emperor's Children that get out of the warp early and got away because of their small size (like Night Lords).

Did you forget that Orks, Dark Eldar, Necrons, and Tyranids all have very little to do with Abaddaboo's crusade. Do you really think all four of those are likely to get more development than Cadians, the dudes standing in Abaddaboo's way?
>>49722174
Imperial Guard players have a massive persecution complex. They think that they're the worst codex, most abused codex in the game whenever they aren't top tier.

>>49722500
Eh, Thousand Sons are fairly fragmented. Unless they have Magnus recalling all of his prodigal sons prior to this latest cartoon villainy, a huge chunk of the legion is just out doing whatever millennia old super-powerful sorcerers do.

At the very least we'll still have Ahriman and his faction.

I've brought both in a really big game.
The Servoharness Biker is nice because he also comes stock with a 2+ armor save and a ton of Power weapons.

I picked a bad time to start Admech. They'll take a long time to get anything nice in Age of Emperor/new fluff. Even our codex has us being beaten up by 'Crons, Nids and Deathwatch. (Not so salty re. losing to Trollzyn though)

Shut the fuck up, sooner than later they will get a combined codex with some good stuff.

RW is shooty as hell so you are good. They are quick and relentless

>Never used bike units, how does CC work with them? Do they get locked, or am I braining heretics as I ride past them?

Well if they start their charge within 6" of their darkshroud they can't be overwatched which is cool. If someone does charge you they will get a hail of Plasma. As I said their weapon gives them rending is really helpful. They Have three attacks because pistols and hammer.

They can't dump Slaanesh because of the Eldar, and too many of their customers love the Eldar.

Unless, holy shit, that's what they're going to do for the end times. Eldar find a way to reclaim their souls, robbing Slaanesh his/her/its energy, and remanding him/her/it to a minor warp entity. Eldar players love it, cum tons of $ for geedubs to lap up, Chaos gets fucked over again and everyone else has a good laugh.

Must've ignored the statlists. Didn't know they were equivalent to power weapons.

Anyway, two more questions.
1) Do you mind if I post my list for you to look over?
2) What do you use for DA's armour colours? Their colour classifications are confusing to me what with the fallen and RW using the same colours. I should have msot of it since my allies are Salamanders, but it's a darker green, isn't it?

>>49722026
I feel like one of the only ones that like it, it's pretty restrained but I like that. Plus this might mean we're getting that Tzeentch update soon, which is what I've been waiting on before coming back to the game.

>>49722995
At 500 points I gave them both autos and meltas because first turn I wont move and shoot the auto cannons to try to get their light armor or whatever while they move up. By the time I then get close enough to melta anything, the enemy will then punch my chimeras down and all my dudes then have to get out, at that point the autocannons get another shot.

Land Raiders are 100 points too expensive. Storm Ravens are too slow to start helping.

Just because the riptide is broken as shit doesn't mean the vehicle rules aren't utter trash and wouldn't just be heather for the game if they had a T.

You might actually see Land raiders and dreadnoughts if they couldn't get 1 shot or immobilsed before they even move.

more like "dumbed down to theoretically expand profit margins but in reality it does nothing but alienate their established playerbase"

Genestealer Cult - 500 points - probably going to end up being a campaign (growing forces as it goes on)

At 500 points, how important is it for these guys to get Cult Insurrection?

i gotta admit it was some greek tragedy shit when they talked about malekith. i'm not gonna get into it because it was ridiculous and i could talk about it all day

Got this 1220 points Purge FOC Renegades army so far:

(5) Renegade Command Squad - 110 points
-Ordnance Tyrant
-Covenant of Nurgle
-Banner of Hate

4x (20) Plague Zombie Hordes - 60 x4 = 240 points

4x (4) Renegade Field Artillery Battery - 130 x4 = 520 points
-4 quad launchers
-Militia Training

4x (3) Renegade Rapier Laser Destroyer Battery - 70 x4 = 280 points
-Militia Training

2x (1) Renegade Strike Battery - 35 x2 = 70 points
-Griffons

1. Do I have enough Plague Zombies to have an effective enough tarpit for 1850 point games?

2. While using Chaos Knights or Daemons would be a more "pro" idea, with the rest of the 630 points I want some kinda Alpha Legion CSM stuff for more fluffy fun. What's the best I can get out of a CSM allied detachment here?

So, as name above is fraction: "Tousand Sons" what it will be? Supplements (like Cadians etc) doesnt get such fraction name, correct? so does it mean it will be standalone codex like GCult?

All CSM players will switch to Tzeentch then

>>49724237
Similarly to the dumb frogposter here.

>Man I can't wait to get int 40k
>I wonder what fantasy is like, hey these Vampire Counts are pretty cool
>Then read about End Times and Age of Sigmar, Counts combined with Tomb Faggots, rules become MtG-level retarded except instead of a few joke cards, it's sweeping changes to common rules
>Guess I'll just go with 40k then
>End Times might happen here anyway
My only reason for thinking they won't, or won't to the degree of Fantasy, is 40k's enormous market share.

That said, I'm mad and worried, but I'll just play casual games at non-GW locations and keep it 7e. Y'all play DnD 3.5 so goddam much still.

>>49724348
maybe the thousand sons will be a favtion of their own like Khorne Daemonkin

Looking on the GW webstore, can I buy the Techmarine from there and put him on a bike? The tasset looks prohibitive.

>>49724348
why is the box all roughed up and scratched? also based on the recent models this is gonna be at least $100 USD

>>49724391
someone probably fished it out of GW`s garbage

>>49724391

>>49724391

Working on some Tyranid Warriors that will eventually form the tax for that Tyranid artillery formation.

Legitimate question, how is Citadel glue and it's applicator compared to other plastic cement?

>>49720798
I know this feel. I have two BaC boxed sets, one Tyranid boxed set, and a crap ton of recasts I haven't even touched yet.

>>49723315
So...Nagash.

what do you guys do well waiting for shipping of new models?

>>49722389

The Demiurg would be primarily interstellar miners and builders of Ringworlds/Dyson Spheres/other self-enclosed solar systems that would be far less likely to have sleeping Necrons or Warp Portals beneath them than natural worlds. All their equipment and gear would look very industrial. No Train, but they would have a heavy-duty ore-shuttle.

>>49724183
The AoS rules are actually pretty good, but the to-hit and to-wound rolls being static is definitely the worst part of it, and almost a deal breaker for me. I wonder if it is because they want all of the stuff you need to play put into the dataslates or because they think kids can't into to-hit and to-wound charts. That being said, the to-hit chart in close combat is bullshit.

>>49724391
Looks like it's one of the bases from the Onager Dunecrawler. The biggest circular base. I'm not too sure. It's either that one or the Dreadnought sized base.

>>49724247
There wasn't a single thing in ET:K that was good.

>>49724489
Finish the stuff I'm working on. I have such an autistic aversion to hording and messes that it keeps me focused on getting shit done.

>>49724348
Correct. Thousand Sons are getting their own book. It will probably be Harlequin tier (in terms of models/unit entries) at best. Most CSM stuff won't actually be supported.

How the FUCK do I put a techmarine on a bike?

Just buy a biker squad, and build a tech torso and regular legs?

>>49724489
Live life.

Masturbate, go for walks, masturbate, watch movies, eat, clean the house, masturbate, listen to music, read, check out politics, masturbate, and so on.

So mostly masturbate, and try to improve myself as a person during the refractory period.

>>49724474
Exactly

Actually, I'm stupid. That's most likely a dreadnought base. If it were the Onager base, Magnus would be about as tall if not taller than a Wraithknight.

Part of Altansar, the craftworld that got absorbed into the eye long ago, and was broken out by Mugean Ra riding it out while playing metal and killing daemons.

Lotta casualties when they were coming out, including my main HQ's wife and son. He went off the deep end for a number of years before getting in contact with a surviving craftworld and learning about wraithguard.
Fast forward about a year, he's slapping soul stones into every wraith the moment to bonesingers churn them out. As one of the very limited number of bonesingers, having not so much walked along the path instead of reading the cliff-notes, he holds a high position in the craftworld, and abuses it maliciously.
The first wraithlord that was crafted now houses his wife's soulstone. While his son's soulstone was shattered during his death, he now forces wraithguard and blades to swear into his own service.

He uses this, his own personal army, to do one thing: guard his young daughter while he leads most of them to war. She always has at least 5 wraithblades/guards helping her get ready for school, meditation, and bed.
The actual political and spiritual leaders are, of course, wary of this grief-maddened fool, and will always bring either a Farseer or an Autarch along on his sorties.

When not at battle or performing necromancy, he spends time at his new home, resized for his wife's frame, and spends time with his family. He's particularly proud of how much her daughter enjoys piggybacks from her mother now that's she's much taller.

On table-top, if either the mother or the father is removed as a casualty, the other will stop at nothing to get into melee with whatever downed the first one.

I'll give Ork players one thing. I find it bizarre that orks are the same strength as guardsmen/guardians/fire warriors

>>49724749
Because they're not fired up unless they'z fightin' themselves.

>>49724659
Not the same guy, but if 90% of the infantry in the game get charged by an equal number of Orkz, they are going to die, incredibly messily.
Orkz are weak in the current edition, with shooting being far and away better than melee, but they hit like 3 Space Marines for the cost of less than half of one.
They just are stuck with the same stats that they have had for like 4 editions. They need a little pick me up.

>>49724183
> to appeal to married men with lots of money whose wives only allow them out of the house an hour a week

About god damned time I catch a break.

I don't suppose they'll consider end-timesing 40k without killing off the old setting?

>>49724662
Well Magnus did grow to the size of a Gargant to engage it in fisticuffs. So being Wraithknight size isn't infeasible.

>>49724908
i think they learned from Sigmar, so i guess they wont kill the setting.
Afaik they want to move the clock from 5 minutes before midnight to 1 minute before midnight, so we wont even have to care about the endtimes

If a blast hits 3 units from squad A and 2 units from squad B, then how does it work?

Assume squad A is closer than B.
Do you just get 5 hits on squad A then?

>>49724925
Assume that is the huge circular base for a second. That would make him about a foot tall. Trying to transport that would be ridiculous. But, I wouldn't put it past GW to make him that big to justify a $100+ pricetag because if he was on a Dreadnought base $70 would probably be the max anyone would pay.

>>49724989
You get 3 hits on A and 2 hits on B, hitting the closest models in each unit to the firer of the blast (or the centre in case of a nova or explosion).

>>49724969
Imo if they just kept End Times as editions where the changes happened over time instead of back to back. It would have been a lot better. They were being spit out too fast.

>>49722294
55th Malfi Hellcats

The Hellcats are an all female Tempestus Scions regiment, exclusively recruited from Malfi nobility. Since they are technically not orphans but more or less "donations" (along with a lot of material wealth) to the Schola Progenium they are less strict on the brain scrubbing. In turn they get stationed mostly in the Malfian subsector, acting as shocktrooper to quickly react in case of any revolts, heretic uprisings or outright xeons threat.

>>49724995
Oh I'm aware. Just making jokes anon :P

>>49724969
Hopefully "once bitten, twice shy" will prove true here.

But as far as what you said, the barbarians are at the gate as far as everything apart from Abaddon having gained any considerable ground on Cadia.

What I think might, MIGHT happen is basically freezing at the scene of Vulkan, Lion El', or Roboute, or all three proverbiably standing on the hill like Gandalf at helm's deep. Signalling a return to something close to the pro-human while not being anti-xeno towards the Tau or Eldar.

Maybe you meant it much more subtle than I interpreted it, but it sounds like you think they're gonna put Abaddon's fist on the Emperor's throne room door.

What is one thing that GW could do for your codex to make it more fun, if not more balanced?

>Note:
I said one thing. Looking at you, Orkz and Chaos.

>>49722323
What's that standing on the right hand side of the box? You can see a bit of tabard, foot, and base.

>>49725018
Anon, we can't even joke about what GW plans to do. They might just do what we joke about. I fucking bet you Rountree is Kairos Fateweaver under a mask and the whole board is a bunch of fucking Lords of Change cackling around a table.

How the fuck do i deal with guard mechlines as Iron Hands? The amount of 14AV is getting a bit ridiculous.

>>49724749.
The simple solution would be to make Boyz S4, Nobz S5 and Warbosses S6.
But the problem with that is Nobz now cost 6ppm and Warbosses cost 18ppm.

>>49725047
He needs purple streaks painted on his arms or sumfin

>>49725047
FnP 6+ for all Orkz as standard, 5+ for Nobz and larger.

>>49725041
>while not being anti-xeno towards the Tau or Eldar.

fuck you nigger

>>49725057
Almost all guard vehicles have AV10 on the rear.
Deep strike some melta in those assholes, or get into melee and enjoy glancing them to death before you melta bomb is even thrown.

Speaking of, what's the best way to deal with GK's high armor penetrating problems? Surely allies of some kind, but which ones and why?

Also, how would you approach an Eldar Wraith Host as GK? There's a guy at my store who just has the standard d-flamers in wave serpents + wraithknight, which isn't a problem for my traitor guard, but if I'm thinking about picking up Grey Knights I don't know what I could/should do to fight them.

>>49725047
Synapse gives 5+ FNP

>>49725047
Give all Daemons back EW. Take 1 W away from any model that has more than 3 wounds.

>>49724767
>Because they're not fired up unless they'z fightin' themselves.
>Fired up because they just furious charged themselves

>>49725091
Can't. all guard players hide their tanks in board corners so you can only hit the front. The guy i play against keeps two vanquishers like this at all times.
