The Arquebus is a trap option, don't take it. It's unfortunately really bad at what it does, as massed haywire is far more likely to take out a vehicle than it.

Mathhammer wise, Vanguard will always do more damage than Rangers, drop them for more Vanguard. Eradication Beamer's meh in my opinion, as it requires you to get closer to be more effective, which means melta and power fists are more likely to be able to harm it. Take the other option, iirc it's better, but I don't remember it's statline.

There's nothing wrong with it, the problem is you hipsterfagging by claiming the superiority of metal models and wanting to play them because they're one of the least played armies. Just wait 'til February/Maybe December, if they have plastics by then you'll be better off as they'll likely be cheaper or even have their own Start Collecting box which will likely have a good amount of savings.

>>50134434
Nobody wants your models, Anon. They're probably put together or painted like shit.

Didn't get any answers last night

Had a question regarding the Space Wolves Axenought. I noticed that the profile for the blizzard shield actually has it as a weapon with user str and ap 2. Does this mean the shield grants the dreadnought an additional attack in close combat or do you choose which weapon to use when allocating hits?

I like metal models. Unloved armies are cool. Pretty sure the guys at my FLGS will be happy to play against Sisters for once.

>>50134489
If you're playing to win in tournaments, Bikes and Venoms. Nothing else. Look up Tabletop Tactics latest "No Retreat" tournament report. If playing to win for fun, bikes, venoms, scourges, maybe a ravager or 2, and some Incubi.

Opinion on Shas'O Ra'lai? Considering picking him up. Seems very strong, yet very costly ($ and points) and Gets Hot is never fun.

>>50134504
What did he mean by this?

>>50134432

I've a looted Russ so the armour profile would fit but the custom gun is just so big a killkannon feels insufficient rules wise but yeah... 180 point model with av10 rear is silly even for Orks.

>>50134532
What's that art from?

>>50134507

Well thats a little disappointing, rather liked painting the infantry.

Are mandrakes and Scourges viable?

What types of units do I want to focus on in a Blood Angels list?

I feel like I have the ability to include plenty of melta and flamers to deal with armor and infantry. FMCs and Riptides could be a real problem though.

>>50134495
Sure. Sisters are often used to "watch" Marines that the Inquisition is giving the stink eye. Alternatively Sisters seem to be getting corrupted all the damned time in Black Library stuff.

>>50134489
Dark Eldar are MSU in an internet environment that forgets MSU exists due to win at all costs lists.

If you go bare bones, forget about first blood and kill point games, and just concentrate on getting as many dark lances and splinter weapons on the table as humanly possible they are a very fun and competitive army.

But deathstars are all the rage right now so you will be told they are a "bad" army despite MSU being the perfect counter for the bullshit meta at the moment.

>>50134489

I recently started playing deldar again after selling all my models, I bought:

3 Starter Box
Convert Raiders into Ravagers (had to buy parts from china)
Sell 2 archons on ebay
Make the squads into 5 man squads with a blaster each (again, extra blasters from china)

5 Venoms, 4 for troops 1 for HQ

A talos a cronos and a haemonculus for the dark artisan formation.


Later you might wanna get 4 more talos for the corpse theif claw, some more Reaver Jetbikes as they're awesome and you should be set.

From there you have all the essentials, flavour to your own tastes.

>>50134543
I know, I like the infantry, too. Maybe another squad of Kabalites to run as Blasterborn on venoms.
Mandrakes can be kind of cheesy if you take a butt ton of them and infiltrate the fuck out of the enemy. Scourges are insanely good at anti-armor due to Haywire Blasters + Jump Infanty. 1-2 squads, max, though.

>>50134538
mandrakes might be the single worst unit in 40k

Scourges are extremely good

>>50134575
Why'd you sell all your models?

>>50134579

Okay, well i will probably get a box of Scourges, more warriors, and maybe a venom or raider

>>50134589

These were the first models I bought. Shit sucked dog dick.

>>50134568

Okay thats good to know, I wanted to field a army that was fun to play against ( don't want to piss off players as I have no warhammer friends at the moment) and was somewhat viable so I don't lose every game.

>>50134614

If you don't mind them being effectively suicide squads you can take 6 squads of 5 scourges, 4 of which with special/Heavy weapons and deep strike them.

This would rely on you having some sort of reserve manipulation and some adjoined characters for Webway portals but it's doable. Foot slogging Kabalite Warriors is never ever ever going to work as you have no way to buff them/provide them with cover within the codex. If you fancy that though you could ally in some eldar farseer or harlequin shadowseer to protect them

>>50134325
ompany Commanders can issue two orders and Platoon commanders can issue a single order as they have previously. New additions to the Voice of Command are Tempestor Prime characters which can issue a single order, Commissar Yarrick which can issue two orders, and Tank Commanders which can issue a single order, from their own unique list of three orders.
You can issue the same order more than once but not to the same unit

Yeah, but Finecast is garbage. Finecast got shit on by everyone, so they changed the listing. They used to list Finecast like it was a bonus.

>>50134648
no one will be mad at you for playing DE, most people view DE with respect since it's not an easy army to play.

Just keep at it, they are not forgiving so do not fall into the trap of "I need to get X unit because this other unit sucked."

The army is a high mobility glass cannon, if your shit is out in the open and not getting cover or jinking it's ass off then it's your fault not the army 9/10.

>>50134652

Yeah I wasn't planning on getting very much, just wanted a uniti that would be fun to add to matches when I needed some more anti-tank.

Also I wouldn't plan on taking warriors without having a troop transport though.

>>50134690

>>50134698

In that case, I'd definitely recommend scourges with 4 Haywire blasters deepstriking near your designated target. When it goes off it feels great. Also remember you can take a single blaster per 5 Kabalite Warriors which is a great anti tank weapon.

>>50134706

Do dark Eldar do well in kill teams or small points battles? I feel like their codex is geared towards 1000 point ish engagements.

>>50134739
Was it an emotional breakup?

>>50134427
Thanks for the advice!

In all honesty though, I'm not trying to minmax it or anything like that. I'm aiming for a cool-looking force that will give a reasonable fight.

I'm going to grow the army larger, I just want a 500pts to start so I can play right away

What do you think the new sisters will look like? Is there a chance GW could fuck them up?

>>50134759

In my experience they're better suited to 1850, where you can flood the field with targets. Whereas most armies buy something big and shiny the higher points go, which they can afford to since they're not made of glass, dark eldar simply go for more redundancy. That means more bikes more venoms more raiders and ravagers so the enemy has more threats to deal with, at 1000 we don't necessarily have the budget to flood the field AND maintain a good balance of poison and darklight weapons. Again this is just my opinion from my experience.

Killteam I have done reasonably well in using a Venom and 5 Trueborn. It feels appropriate to send a small elite squad into KT (even though the Trueborn would rather watch half-born do the work from above). The ability for Trueborn to take a variety of special and heavy weapons makes them awesome and the venom, whilst 12 shots is overkill, provides a mobile threat that should keep your boys alive.

>>50134028

So I've been away from the hobby for awhile and all my paints have dried, my spray paint gone and my glue dry.

What equipment do I need to buy to do that shading outline effect I see on GW painted Dark eldar armour. My last army was night goblins so I haven't done much of that.

Always. But I have more faith in them than most. I think one of the reasons they've been putting it off for so long is due to the tides of SJWs baying at the gates lately, but that fad might be passing, so who knows.

>>50134198

>>50134855

the edge highlighting? jus a small detail brush and use the side of the bristles along the edge to leave a fine line of whatever colour you're going for

>>50134174
General lack of options. They need to bring back the cryptek disciplines and give Lords more gear to help specialize squads. Bring back Build-a-C'tan, or at least un-randomize them. Random shit is usually shit, and it's not even like Necrons have a thing for randomized tables like Chaos and Orks.

>>50134839
Doubt it. I don't see how.

They already don't show any skin. There's no "sexism" in the artwork. Nothing needs to be made more mature, or whatever the fuck SJW faggots complain about.

Worst we're gonna get is a bad codex.

>>50134891

>>50135059
if you are playin against Guard, could be a 3 or 4 leman russ
SM might have one landraider, two if they feel like it.

AV 13 is much more common.
-Imperial knight
-Vindicator/Predator
-Hammerhead
-Necron with shields on
-more expensive dreads (Venerable, Furioso, Contemptor...)

Just saw this comment on another site:

Are Immolators too expensive? Forgive me for being newb as fuck.

>>50135109
How do I counter Skitarii as Eldar in Kill Team? My transport isn't an option and the only way I have of dealing with his multiple Sydonians is a string of lucky rolls with weapon platforms or a dedicated Fire Dragon squad that eats about half of my points.

Lascannons have never been bad.
>GW please give sisters tactical berets.

>>50135186
Depends.
Autocannons have 2 shots so you are less likely to miss or do nothing. And often its better to shoot some hullpoints then hope for the lascannon shot to explode. (Something you did not factor in, lascannons are AP2 which means with a 6 they get the vehicle explode result as they give +1 on the damage table)

>>50135184

The usual good SoB stuff is
5 dominions with 4 meltaguns in immolator with Multimelta due to outflank and ignore cover act of faith
exorcist

both can be taken 3x in a single CAD
Dominions are Fast Attack
Exorcists are Heavy Support
So I say 3 minimum

Buy them third-party from Anvil Industries. They come in a fairly large number of variants, including alternate Lasguns, Stubbers, Autoguns, Autocarbines, Autoguns with Drum-Mags, and such. They also all have combat rails that accept further stuff like Grenade Launchers, Combi-lasguns, and scopes..

The lattermost of which has like 7 different options to help maximize YOUR DUDES.

>>50135109
Fair enough. I got wrecked by armor last night, and I'm looking to make one last purchase before the night's over. Ethereal seems more than a little weak compared to a Battlesuit Commander; I'm basically in a tossup between Coldstar+Hammerhead or Ra'lai right now.

>>50135235

Sisters players are rare AF but a standard list is something like:

Saint Celestine
7 × Seraphim, 2 with hand flamers
4 × 5 Sister squad with heavy flamer
4 × Immolator dedicated transport
3 × Exorcist

Then you can fill it out with either 2 more sister squads in immolators, a knight, some of the forgeworld flyer they can take... So yeah 4-6 Immolators. Fun fact I recently priced up a sisters army and it would cost more to buy the 7 minimum Rhinos than it would to buy all the sisters, characters, upgrade parts for immolator and exorcist. it's the main thing putting me off ever buying an imperial army

>>50135274
I know what you're talking about, but what does CAD actually mean?

3 Fast Attack, 3 Heavy Support.

That's three units of Dominions and three Exorcists. Right? Probably another Immolator or two for Celestians or some shit.

>>50135301
Combined Arms Detatchment.

>>50135301
CAD stands for "Combined Arms Detachment", and it's essentially the traditional Force Org Chart of
1 HQ, 2 HQ's Optional
2 Troops, 4 Troops Optiona
3 Elite Optional
3 Heavy Support Optional
3 Fast Attack Optional
1 LOW Optional
1 Fortification Optional.

You can have AS MANY detachments as your heart can handle. But CAD is widely considered to be the least broken, because it's what everyone played as before 7th edition.

>>50135301

Combined Arms Detachment. Basically you have to take a HQ and 2 Troops, this allows you to take 4 further troops, 3 fast attack and 3 heavy support. So if you want to take more heavy support you can take another CAD and end up with 6 heavy slots and 6 fast attack (can't remember if elites is 3 per cad aswell). Allied Detachment is similar but you only need a HQ and 1 troop to gain 1 more heavy and fast slot

>>50135186
They're not BAD bad but people mostly avoid them because they're usually 'bad for their points' bad.

Most codexs price them around 20-25 points to put a single shot on to a unit/vehicle and you're going to need more than one of them for sure.
Meanwhile a melta gun only costs 10 points to put on a squad you're going to be rushing up the table anyway.

Well, a Hammerhead was already next on my purchase list, but for the purposes of bringing me up to 750 (I have Fire Warriors and Crisis I didn't use for 500) rather than for changing up 500. And I knew going in that I was lacking for anti-armor; I was mostly trusting that my Crisis plasma rifles would get through stuff. Going forward, fusion suit is definitely a yes.

Sup /tg/. I have started outfitting my Sternguard dudes with various Xeno weapons, most notably power swords from eldar. See, the way I reason this, is that my chapter requires anyone wanting to be a sternguard vet to go serve 10 years in the deathwatch.

On the one hand, anyone's allowed to try for the challenge, even the lowliest of scouts, all the way up to captains. All my sternguard sergeants are considered first and in-line for Chapter Master status, so they're pretty badass. A lot of them would also have souvenirs from their 10 years in Deathwatch, such as various non-chaos tainted weapons "acquired" from things like eldar and necrons.

It probably also helps out the chapter to not have to worry quite as much about obtaining artificer made power swords, if all their sternguard vets are coming home with stolen eldar power swords.

Armies that need a reasonably pointed and durable assault vehicle before Sisters of Battle
>Chaos Space Marines
>Blood Angels
>Space Wolves
>Grey Knights
>Black Templars
>Orks

Sisters need a plastic Power Armor kit, a plastic Jump Infantry kit, a Rhino-upgrade kit, and a plastic HQ option. Give them an ally-tier codex and call it a day. Cut Penitent Engines, as they will never, ever be a viable option. Cut Repentia as they're literally just naked women with chainsaws, add an Eviscerator armed Jump Infantry option to replace them. If you want to get really spicy, give them a multi-part plastic Living Saint kit. If GW wasn't retarded, they would have made the basic Genestealer Cult novice kit into a basic "humans in rags" kit with a separate GSC upgrade sprue, that way the same core sprue could be used for Frateris Militia, Chaos Cultists, and Conscripts with the addition of a single upgrade sprue with faction specific options, some variant heads/arms/torsos, and the like.

>>50135326

That's the most consistent way yeah, you could also take the Retributors (heavy) with heavy bolters, say a little prayer (leadership check) and they get rending (6's hit with AP2)

This is just the basic list, I need another 300-450 points to add. I have an AC HWT and a LC HWT along with the meltavets, but I know I still need some more AT.

Trying to decide between Vendettas, Russes, or Basilisks or something. Maybe scout sentinels with multi-lasers or Hellhounds/Devil Dogs because that sounds fun too. I have assassins and GK/SoB/Harlequin (?) lying around so I could potentially get some allies too.

The psykers are there to support the vets and/or the backlines, and potentially do some heavy lifting if I get lucky on the power rolls.

I originally got them for prescience and maybe invisibility or something on the Heavy Weapons Squads, but aside from that they look like they can be pretty fun.

Disposable doesn't make sense for astartes, and open-topped (i.e.easy to destroy) is shit for expensive melee units. Any melee-based MEQ army needs a moderately armored assault transport to ensure that their expensive units don't just get stranded in their deployment zone turn one.

Trukks should work for Orks because the units inside are cheap. You can take a bunch of them and you can be or at least should be guaranteed to have some of them make it through to their target.

>>50135495
Fuck off, shitposting retard. Dark Eldar are fundamentally broken at the moment, but widespread access to assault transports has never been considered a significant part of their shtick.

>>50135488
I'm talking a single plastic upgrade kit to make a Rhino into any of the Sisters Rhino variants. Probably have to alter the Exorcist to do it, but that's okay since the organ launchers are fairly goofy looking anyways.

Slow, open-topped, dedicated melee walkers will never be good in 40k as we know it. Similarly, Repentia as a slow, lightly armored, dedicated melee unit that always strikes last will never be good. Just fold them into a dual-kit with Seraphim, and you both make them good and get rid of one of the least-PC units left in the game.

>>50135477
In reality, I think it would be better to just unfuck Rhinos rather than build a new dedicated assault vehicle for half the armies in the game. Up-armor them and bump the price up a bit, and then unfuck the core rules for assaulting out of vehicles. At the absolute least, assaulting out of stationary vehicles needs to come back. That change gutted every mechanized CC MEQ army.

It just takes a few years of these kinds of habits to get a good collection of bits. After awhile of building stuff you just kind of get a sense for what and where everything is.

Reposting this since I posted in the old thread:


My friend bought me some Tyranid Warriors, and I was thinking of equipping them as follows:

>Warrior 1: Lashwhip/bonesword + Rending Claws

>Warrior 2: Lashwhip/bonesword + Rending Claws

>Warrior 3: Rending Claws + Barbed strangler.

Am I doing it wrong? Is there any point to them having Rending Claws as well as the Lashwhip and Bonesword? You can only get the +1 to attacks for extra weapon once right? And if it does, does that mean all my close combat attacks get rending?

Another example is, my flyrant has lash whip and bonesword, but is moddeled with the prehensile pincer tail, does that get it an extra attack on top of the +1 already gained from lashwhip/bonesword (which I am assuming counts as two weapons)

How do I into 4 arms?

Pic related is the last game I played with them (some very old nids from my first Battle for Macragge set pictured), but my Hive Tyrant is in the background here. Apologies for the blurriness. I was excited and rushed my photos.

I am the creator. He carries it because it's spares for his apothecary. He's also the backline dude for his squad, so he's got everyone else to stand in front of him to help protect the gene-seed.

The ammo isn't just for him, it's for his squad. Some ammo packs are beyond his own reach , but are instead easily accessible to his squad members in mid-firefight.

>>50135893
Each pair of arms is one weapon. In the LashBone setup, they count as 1 weapon, adding a set of Rending Claws also counts as 1 weapon, giving +1 attack. You only get rending if you choose to use the Rending Claws as your melee weapon.

Ok let me get this straight:
>Lashwhip/bonesword is one weapon. So essentially, my hive tyrant would not get the +1 attack bonus unless I take the pincer tail.
>Similarly, my Warriors Won't get the +1 attack bonus unless I take either rending claws or some other weapon.
>I can't use both the bonus of the lashwhip bonesword (6 = instant kill) and the rending of the claws at the same time.

So really, lashwhip/bonesword plus rending claws is retarded given I'd have to choose one in close combat, negating one of the two choice point's cost.

From what I've gathered there, I'd be way better off taking a melee and a ranged weapon, thereby gaining the +1 attack and not having to choose which to use in melee.

You dont get extra attacks for the tail weapons. My general set up for warriors is Rending Claws and a Devourer or Deathspitter. Your right on the money for the other two points. You wont ever be able to claim +1 attack unless you have 2 melee weapons.

What weapon is best wep for armoured sentinels?

I own 3 BC/can Russ now. Is it a waste NOT to make one of them an Eradicator or the autocannon one?

How do I remove kebab as Space Marines?

Is there a way to make that work with a Russ? My experience is you have to glue the turret together around the barrels

M80 have you ever seen a laser?

Can I have some feedback on this list? Trying to go for an all-out turn 2 assault force that will just plough head on into most enemies. How well do you think it would perform - are the bikes a good idea?

Would a genestealer's kiss work on a Space Marine?
What would a Tau genestealer cult be like?

What would a 5 man assault squad without jump packs be good for? I've got a box sitting here sans jump packs and I don't want it to go to waste

>>50136771

They're pretty OK in a pod with 2 flamers. Especially in a Battle Company, cheapy ObSec

>>50136737
Genestealer infection does 'work' on Space Marines in terms of opening their minds up to be more vulnerable to psychic manipulation, but I don't recall any sources on if it actually effects the geneseed or not.

As for Tau Genestealer Cults? It's a tough one considering the Tau don't really have the psychic sensitivity to make it easy for their broodmind shenanigans, but they do exist as of the new Codex (no specifics are given on the hybrids or the way they work in this instance, though.)

>>50136771
with spare bolters you can make tacticals

Guys, how often do you think people will be fags about going 1 point over 1000 points?

I've got a close to perfect list for myself worked out but it's 1 point over. Will people sperg out over that in pugs? I wouldn't tournament with this army.

>>50136804
what about having cowboys running around with dual pistols?

>>50136821
be open about it. Some care some dont
it will be far worse if ppl find out later

>>50136821
Just ask your opponent, Ive had lists with 5pts over and told them that if they wanted to add anything to their list or if they had any problem with that and so far havent got any problems.

Fucking talk to your opponent like a normal human being.

Check the GSC codex. The Tau thought it'd be cool to see what happens if they tried to cooexist.

The planet was lost as everyone became cultists and the Tyranids arrived, with no one even putting up a defence.

>>50136829

I mean who gives a shit what you give the ones without the 2 flamers.

>>50136871
I meant plasma pistols instead of flamers

>>50136883

Eh, I think its too expensive at that point.

I generally don't mind people being over/under up to 10 points, though if there's an upgrade they can drop they should. And being under is preferable to being over.

>>50136869
That's not what happened. The Tau quarantined it for 10 years and then some potentially corrupted Ethereal declared it as "clean".

My opponent usually runs a similar list to that, but with tacticals in rhinos instead of bikes. It works pretty well.

Just be sure to take out huge things fast and don't let your DC get trashed before taking out any vehicles or MCs.

Anything new from the forge world open day?

Probably more Imperial or 30k stuff as always.

It really depends. Some codexes have really weird point values and it is very hard to get it exactly. Some might also try to powergame with this.

If you've taken an upgrade that is less points than the difference, that is really uncool. If you try to use the leeway to allow you to fit a fourth riptide in your 1000 point list or some stupid ass bullshit, then go play by yourself at home.

But if you are just having trouble trying to balance between 1001 points and 996 points, let's play and speak nothing of it.

I try to keep my lists strictly under the point value because I know some people sperg over it. I am being to cautious I think, especially since I play an NPC faction.

I'm building my Crassus Armored Transport and I'm decorating the interior to make it seem more like a vehicle that's used over an extended campaign on an ice world. I've got space lasguns in it, ammo crates, I'm gonna model benches, medkit, spare kasrking backpacks, jerry cans, water canteens and I'm gonna model a water cooler on top of that. What else should I add?

Harlequins are overly fiddly little fucks to assemble.

>>50137868
Your face looks like ass! Sanguinary Guard are GOAT. Shame they're one of the worst units in the game. Yay, paying 30PPM for a naked T4 2+ with AP3 (or AP2 + Unwieldy) with a 1 better AP Bolter stuck with Rapid Fire mode.

If their weapons weren't 2H and the Axe wasn't Unwieldy (come the fuck on, it's MASTER CRAFTED yet they can't make it balanced?) they'd be great. +1S for Sword and AP2 for Axe (without Unwieldy) will make 30PPM OK. Means when facing GEQ's you use the Sword, while against MEQ's you use the axe.

The only alternative is dropping them to 20ppm.

>>50137883
Oops, forgot the wrist-bolters, theyre pretty cool too.

>>50137884
And if I dont? ;)
