Nope, only one. But you can bring a Knight as a Lord of War. It won't have the Noble ranks rule, but at least you don't need to bring like 2-3 Knights as an allied detachment

No, but in your case you can take 1-2 knights as a LoW.

power fists and a chainfist here or there. Combi-plas if you have the points to spend
>>
>>50307331
I've been looking at a squad with Volkite chargers and a lightning claw, the claws reroll wounds and the deflagrate means you should be able to use the unit as an effective force without it being easy to tarpit. They'll also make decent headhunters for high wound units.
>>
>>50307306
Oh yes, it is. Damn.
I guess I'm sticking with my one Warden and focussing on my Taghmata Xana air wing. Two Lightnings should do the job of a Knight Errant, and I can buff them. I do need an anti-air solution for smaller games, though. Anyone solved the problem of killing Storm Eagles at 2k?

Nice paintjob and man I love the model.

Anyone tried cutting the crozuis off and replacing it with a power sword or something?

So, Lords of War are unaffected by RoWs, LA, WTs or anthing, right?
>>
>>50307379
I replaced the end with the blade of a power sword, looks like a power-polearm. I changed the head to a regular MK4 too, will probably use him as a saboteur or praetor.

I don't know. If you paint him UM colour you don't really need to assemble him :^)
>>
>>50307401
Well, sometimes they do get buffs from being an (X) allied detatchment, so if they were allied to Ordo Reductor, for example, they would gain the Walkers In Ruin bonus.

However, they aren't affected by RoW, WT or Primarch/Consul buffs, no.
>>
>>50307157

Let's consider the difference if we chose yes or no.

Primarchs would still be immune. Salamanders praetors would still take 2 wounds on a hit instead of one, so essentially they require 2 power fist hits to kill instead of 3. Normal praetors would also go to 2 hits instead of just 1.
>>
>>50307540

Unless you're Ferrus Manus in which case you do effect it
>>
>>50307379
Thanks! I have two of these Kurtha Sedd models and I think I'll try to turn the other one into a Moritat or something. The Crozius arm is really easy to change up because of how the wrist is curled away from the wrist-guard of the bracer. Maybe I can slap on one of the Volkite pistols from BoP.
>>
>>50307598
Point, they get it if it specifies "army" not "detachment".
>>
>>50307540
Most LoWs are Fearless and Move through Cover already.
>>50307598
You do make a point. Primarchs affect the rest of their army, but then again this is a special rule. Would it work both ways? Would a Salamander Knight become Obsidian wrought?

That they are, but they do get the bonus even if it's mostly useless. If they eventually release a Cybernetica LoW or move Scoria to there (which should def. be done) you could give it +1I/24" range Cortex Controllers, despite the CC being detatchment-based, so entirely useless in a LoW slot.

I'm still waiting on Reductor exclusive Lords of War. Originally the Mechanicum was going to be an ally-only faction, and the Reductor was going to be LoW only as the Autokrator does today.
>>
>>50307647
Shade your metals before doing the chevrons. You are going to shade that right?

Draw your chevrons on with a sharp pencil first, so you dont fuck it up like on the kneepad. Shoulder looks decent enough though, needs to be tidied up.
>>
>>50307714
Oooh, I did not notice that. Maybe they put the Minotaur in the wrong slot for once?

I'm personally hoping for a support LoW.
In my mind it works as essentially an Ordo Reductor Spartan or Mastodon, but packs less armour and weapons and gives buffs to nearby units, and maybe projects some Void Shields or something, so you can supplement your rather one-track shooty army.

Carry a bunch of Ursarax, Vorax and Myrmidon Destructors to range, then sit there throwing out buff bubbles.

Well lots of things have changed since HH1, which is where the image is from. So, if Minotaurs and Malcadors are Heavy support units, I can't even imagine what an Ordo Reductor-exclusive Lord of War would be.
>>
>>50307859
I imagine expensive, expansive and impractical. Dammit.
Although if it does work, I would be even more interested in starting a proper reductor force, rather than the Magos, Thallax and 2 arty tanks I currently ally to my Cybernetica.

They look damn cool, and now I have all the robots I want. Perhaps I'll start them for Christmas.

When will the Thanatar Cynis get its model? Just imagine, a symmetrical Thanatar...
Rite of destruction shooting so much plasma it runs the risk of burning itself, firing 8 S8 AP2 small blasts.

>>50307583
So basically just rewrite the rule to take the one thing Salamanders Praetors have going for them. Your butthurt is showing.
>>
>>50307647
Use masking tape son. It's 2 mins more of preparation, but a loooot of time saved on the painting part and a much better result. Don't forget to paint the edges of each stick of tape yellow so that it acts a shield that prevents black paint from going under the tape and ruining the job.
And don't forget a wash, like cassandora yellow, it'll look better, I'm about to apply mine.
>>
>>50308013
Now, now anon, that's not true. They can also master-craft their paragon blade for a whole 10 points less than other praetors.

I generally haven't found masking tape to be necessary. I might use some for my dreadnought, but for anything smaller than that, I just don't think it's worth it.
>>
>>50308013

TEe bee H I was thinking more of just letting eternal warrior ignore it since that would effect literally just Salamander Praetors. The idea is just to make generic praetors (and thallax I guess) a bit harder to one shot.
>>
>>50307953
I do want a model for that, but it's hardly LoW calibre compared to the regular Thanatar. I imagine it with guns like the shoulder mounts on the Warlord Titan, but smaller.
I kind of want the LC LoW to be a giant multi-legged bot, not bipedal.

>>50307859
Thinking RE. that, the OR can SQUADRON Minotaurs in a HS slot. How powerful would something that comes as only 1 in their LoW be?

Future primarch models will be plastic. See DP Magnus.

>>50308729
I wouldn't count on that. Heresy and 40k have quite different Primarchs after all (all those daemon princes weren't around during the Heresy), and a majority of them are simply dead in 40k, so we'll still be getting resin 30k versions and where appropriate plastic 40k models.
>>
>>50308602
After Inferno next HH book have to be about Signus Prime and Thramas Crusade. So Sanguinius 100% and probably Lion beating Curze.
>>
>>50308729
Not likely. Demon Magnus is part of 40k's current storyline, has options, and comes on a normal base. FW will want to finish up their character series with all the primarchs.

Who do you think will be Blood Angels special characters, except Sanguinius of course.

I bet Azkaellon, Amit and probably Raldoron.
>>
>>50308993
Those three seem pretty solid choices, though I wouldn't rule out forgeworld giving us an OC donutsteel character who's never been heard of before instead of one of them.

Alright here's my gimmick list made out of most of the terminators I've ended up adopting

Apologies for the phone notes formatting


Alphawing 2000 points

dynat: 200, pride of the legion

Troops:

10 tartaros terminators with 9 power fists, 1 chain fist, 1 power dagger, grenade harness, banestrike ammo, one plasma blaster and one auto cannon: 445

10 Lernaens with 3 power fists, 2 chain fists and 5 axes, 1 power dagger, venom spheres, Spartan with flare shield, armored ceramite and havoc launcher: 860

5 terminators, 5 combi weapons, 3 power fists, 2 chainfists, power dagger, land raider with Pintle mounted multi melta, dozen blade and extra armor: 495

2000/2000

I set up two vehicles and nothing else at 2000 points.

DESU it's probably shit but God damn its Patrician as fuck.
>>
>>50308542
Yup, they're the Prospero marines. I think they're fantastic. The only things I don't like about them is that they don't come with enough holstered bolt pistols or mag pouches for all of the marines (I think it's like 7 of each). And as a strictly personal quibble, I don't like how shallow the eyes are. I've got a squad of FW Mk.IIIs and the eyes are set so deep there's no point in painting them, which is why I paint the plastic marines with black eyes.
>>
>>50308729
lol, no, you fucktard
>>
>>50308038
Hold up, do you not get the yellow done fist, masking tape off the model then spray it leadbelcher? that's what I do

Why the Havoc Launcher?
>I set up two vehicles and nothing else at 2000 points.
I don't know. At least they're tough vehicles.
>>
>>50309300
...No. I don't spray prime becaude I paint one minu at a time and in detached pieces so it's a waste of money,. I brush prime everything black, then brush leadbelcher everyfuckingwhere, then start putting yellow. Definitely thinking about brush priming grey though, black shows like a bitch through...well everything, so leadbelcher as well.
>>
>>50309378

Because I figured it would look cool and I was struggling to think of an extra 15 points to spend that wasn't going to be more powerfists
>>
>>50309414
oh, my method is spray black, spray white, paint yellow parts, mask off, spray lead, paint black over tape, then finish the rest of the model
>>
>>50309414
Do keep in mind that most metallic paints will look best against a black background, on grey it won't be as shiny most of the time.
This is especially true for airbrush paints, but goes for normal acrylic paint as well.
>>
>>50309479
Ah shit, oh well.
Little question about airbush. I'm getting one for christmas. You still need to prime your model before spraying your basecoat right?

Thousand Sons Theoretical rules based on my guesstimation:

Some sort of psyker upgrade for characters that lets them become ML1 and only get the primaris. Another one for ICs/ or a Sorcerer Consul.

The Plastic Rubrics make me think they may have access to the Iliastus AC.

Some fancy Terminator unit lead by a sorcerer of some sort.

Maybe Sorcerer Covens.

What else do people think?
>>
>>50309545
The assault cannon (or whatever it is) is one of the few pieces in the set with a clear tzeentch symbol molded on. As a result I kind of suspect 30k TSons won't be able to take it, given the rules in Inferno will probably be for the legion before they fully get their chaos on.

I'm very interested in finding out the rules of the terminators' chainkhopeshes though.
>>
>>50309534
Yes, you'll still need to prime.
However, there are airbrush primers available, which are quite a bit easier to use than the canned ones.

My personal preference goes to Vallejo's surface primers, which come in quite a few colours and offer a good coat to work from.
>>
>>50309601
If I had to guess, they're representing power weapons, nothing too special.
>>
>>50309604
Yeah, I use these as brush ons already. Black is very goo, two thin coats and you're good to go, although you shouldn't scrape the mini too much.
Grey is okay.
White is a mess. It's super liquidy no matter how much I shake it. At least it won't clog the airbrush.
>>
>>50309545
I wager that Independent Characters (aside from the Librarian Consul of course) can be given ML 1, and then the two special Units (Scarab Occult Terminators and something else) will have Brotherhood of Psykers.

>>50309601
That'd be a little annoying as they talk about the new assault cannons the Scarab Occult are using in "A Thousand Sons", which replaced the old rotary cannon but the TS continued to call them "Reaper" cannons because of the ritual significance of the name.
>>
>>50309649

Airbrushed the resulting coats tend to be a little more solid than when painted by hand, but other than that I agree with your conclusion.

For white I often substitute Desert Tan (as it's a very light bone colour) and work up from there, results in a slightly warmer hue too.
If I'm going for an entirely metallic base then I usually prime with Gloss Black primer (their newest) as it results in the shiniest metal.

/hhg/, Salamander newbie here. I'm having a lot of difficulty getting my GW Salamander transfers to sit properly on the shoulder pads. It might be its size or shape, but they always end up with a raised pinch or two somewhere along the transfer. Any suggestions?

>>50310052
The Eldar fall was brought on by the gathering of most of the Eldar in one area. The humans at least have the benefit of being much more spread out. Otherwise that would suggest a new Eye of Terror the size of the galaxy.

Recently started a Mechanicum army, using the Ordo Reductor variant. Been going great, lots of fun, but I find I struggle against flyers a lot. Other than a Lightning fighter of my own, what works well to fend off things like Storm Eagles and Kharibdis pods? Our local WE player has one of each and they keep dropping the Red Angel on my head and wrecking my stuff with their big guns.

Don't particularly want a Lightning, don't like the model much.

Why are these such a nightmare? Why did they put vents on the skull "grill" so when you're taking them out they just fucking fall to pieces if you're not extremely careful. Why is it all scaled about 1/3rd too small so the smallest icons look fucking dinky on shoulder plates?

How the fuck do I use these?

I got the bending down alright. Got experience with brass using some 3rd party eBay etched brass for my Dark Angels.

One thing I found helps getting fragile bits off the sprue its to cut the part of the sprue that's holding it away from the rest of the frame, then removing the bit itself. No idea if the same principle applies to brass, but it all I got for you I'm afraid.

That's Omegon after he faked his own death as Janus
>>
>>50311106
>when does Alpharius become a daemon prince

Never, Alpharius Omegon was confirmed killed by Dorn which leaves Alpharius Omegon to lead the legion, we know that the Alpha Legion splinters after Eskrador and that the Eskrador incident never happened which only leaves one conclusion; Alpharius Omegon splinters his own legion after the scouring, why? Who knows, maybe he's still in command and has pulled his legion apart or maybe he simply stopped giving orders which leads to the legion to become atomized as each lord becomes the legion's highest command with no central power to lead them.

Alpharius Omegon simply disappears, thats always been the case.

Mind a fluffy question, /30k/?

So, who was the first GK boss?
Garro, Loken, Alpharius, Omegon, Saul Tarvitz (miraculously surviving Istvaan), someone we haven't heard about yet?
>>
>>50311547
Sevatar
>>
>>50311547
You forgot Rubio, Varren,
>>
>>50311547

His name was Janus but we don't know who he was. Word of God says he isn't Garro or Loken but otherwise anyone is fair game.

Omegon is a thematically appropriate choice as Janus is the name of the double faced Roman god who saw both past and future. He would also have the psychic potential and intimate knowledge of chaos to defeat them.

But frankly at this point it could be anyone

It's actually decent points for the money, 3 points/GBP. Only plastics really beat it.
>>
>>50310478
>>50311222
Ok, then. Not running Icarian Thallaxi, since most of my lists fill all my HS slots and those are a bit undergunned for killing Storm Eagles.
I could get two or three Tarantula batteries with AA missiles I suppose.
Alternatively, I could find a cool proxy model for a Lightning, and use that. I'll think on it, building one of those metal tentacle drones that canonically defend Xana II is a bit beyond my abilities.

Looking more at the potential phosphex rapiers and Medusas/vindicators on that one.

There's no limit on tacticals or dreads, as neither are all that bad. FMCs, MCs, I've never really experienced, as I've played few games and the worst was against an army of 50% phosphex rapiers.

Gotcha. I mean I saw a list with like 60 tacticals and was awed by it - the only way to tackle it would have been with massed artillery.
And I was wondering about a full Vultarax unit, or 2 full Castellax / 2 full Vorax. Not Reductor-kun there.

So, /HHG/, sell me on Seekers. I don't really see the point. They're moderately okay in a Raven Guard army that can get them close enough to their target to do anything (or AL if they take Infiltrate from Mutable Tactics), but in pretty much any other situation I don't really see the point. S5 AP2 Shred is good, but it's Heavy 1 which means sitting still, which means no disembark->firing from either pods or rhinos. You either have to infiltrate them or use them to hold backfield as a sort of designated marksman squad. Best case scenario - RG list, add Vigilator for Scout, Infiltrate with 18" of target, Scout to even better position, delete Marked for Dead target immediately on turn one. That's pretty good, but since only 1-2 legions can do it that's just a little too specific for a generic legion infantry unit.

When the unit costs around 300 points once you buy them a Rhino it just seems like you're better off doing anything else. Backfield objective cappers can be Caliver-armed Support Squads; forward AP2 rapers/cappers can be Plasma-armed Support Squads (although they cost even more).

Is there some use I'm not thinking of? It's a way to get a LR Proteus outside of the HS slot, but there's way better ways to do that if that's all you need.
>>
>>50316487
They're fucking cool, decent, and you can take a Proteus without using Heavy Support slots. Scorpius buff was just funny.
>>
>>50316487
They're cool models, and fluffy as fuck.

I agree that they're pretty overcosted, but it seems like you can run small squads as distraction units, or hide them in cover and take potshots at their chosen target. They're also occupying a relatively low-demand slot

Do IF seekers have BS6?

>>50312239
Latest Beast Arises book has the first appearance of Janus. He completely overwhelms/bedazzles the Inquisitor he comes across which is very similar to what Prrimarchs do in the presence of mortals.

Pretty big hint he's a Primarch. The fact he's not described as especially large but still larger than normal also would help the Alpharius/Omegon conspiracy.

My popular theory now is that Alpharius was the loyalist and Omegon was the true traitor (the opposite of pre-Praetorian of Dorn belief), but Alpharius faked his death at the hands of Dorn as a way to escape from his own Legion and defect to Malcador. He became Janus while Omegon continued to lead the Legion. One of them died at Eskrador, who knows which.

BL Live news. The bgigest thing to take away is that there are probably going to be only 3 more numbered books until the Siege of Terra. HH Weekender 2016 said that the siege of terra wasn't nearly as far away as most fans think, which would also support this claim.

His body was brought back to Nocturne and he was resurrected at the end of the book Deathfire. Magnus helped the Salamanders navigate the warp to nocturne because he wants Vulkan to live again for whatever reason.

How important are wings on a Daemon Prince? I really like the look of a daemonic space marine, but feel like without wings he'd get killed fast and easy enough to avoid.

Suffice to say, Emps after 10k years of seeing humanity soil his legacy has something to say about all the shit they've been doing...

>>50316743
Oh man. Alright, so I'm getting a squad of those when I next get the chance, that's just crazy.

So far, my shattered legion purchases are leaning heavily towards Imperial Fists. Aside from Assault marines, what are some units where Blood Angel rules really shine? I'm thinking of running a unit of Angel terminators or something.
>>
>>50316819

Go to 40k general, and wings are important. You should sculpt or convert some yourself though, since the nurgle and space marine models are nicer than the plastic one
>>
>>50316851
>Go to 40k general

To ask about HH related stuff? News flash, daemons exist in 30k and can be taken as by WB and Warp Cults.

I got a DP and some daemons that I wanted to add as allies, but I don't know if I want to fuck up the nice model. The idea of a twisted Marine is appealing, but there's no point if he's gonna get blasted before he even gets to do anything.
>>
>>50316898
Put him on a Disc of Tzeench, or surfing a plane.
>>
>>50316844
Anything where they can make generous use of their ability to substitute Heavy Flamers for Assault Cannons, and anything that plays well to their +1 To Wound in close combat.
>>
I just realized that if you were somehow able to get them there, a unit of night raptors with chainglaives and a chaplain would be able to kill a wraithknight pretty easily
>>
>>50317026
two units of Dark Furies would do the same for the same price, too
>>
>>50312288
Eh, the blasts aren't that bad, since they're not AP3 so the cover save thing will essentially never be a benefit unless for some reason you are fighting unupgraded Adsecularis units.

Still a decent chunk of firepower.
>>
>>50316819
Iirc, wings are their best part, but that model is too great to ignore.

Fuck guys, i have been refining my Alpha Legion 2k force, but now i have 325 points left, and i am really not too sure what i should add:


HQ
Delgatus(warlord), AA, Refrator field, MC combi-plasma
Viglator, AA, RF, power axe


Troops
10 vet tacs, snipers, 2 HB [apoth]
10 vet tacs, snipers, 2 HB, rhino, multi-melta EA


Elites
Mortis, Khers
Cortis, chainfist, EA
2 Apothcarys, augry scanners
Fast attack
10 Seekers, combi-plasmas, AA, PF, PD [apoth]
Heavy support
Sicaran, lascannon


I have some mechanicum bits, but i am unsure

If you give the Seekers combi-plasma you might wanna put them in a transport. The plasma ensures they can fire AP 2 whilst deploying, and it's such a point investment that people will try to shoot them first.

How will your list deal with Spartans ?
>>
>>50313383
Seeing that Khorne has a plethora of war machines dedicated to him, it's more than likely.
>>
>>50318060
It's only against Infantery though, so that won't help against said Wraithknight.

>>50318061
You got a physical copy or do you know where to get scans/epub/pdf ?!
>>
>>50318141
Do you really see many Spartans and deathstars at 2000?

That's probably 700 points of (possibly) non-scoring units right there that can be tarpitted
>>
>>50318126
Ooh I see.
>>
>>50318146
Physical copy I'm afraid. It's quite good but not mindblowing yet or anything. The Emperor is exactly what you expect if you treat the concept seriously and not as a meme.

The best bit so far is Arkhan Land being an autistic comedy goldmine who gets salty about everyone calling it the Land Raider instead of Land's Raider, amongst other things.
>>
>>50317952
Why run Seekers when you can give a Vet tac squad combi plas instead?
>>
>>50317952
Add another Cortis or two. Maybe add a terminator unit. Or switch your Delgatus for Dynat.

kek, that always made my sperg senses tingle as well

>>50318175
Seekers are more than just combi-plasma on a stick

Might pick them up a rhino. does mean i need to drop 2 guys to fit the vigilator and the apothecary in the rhino though.

honestly, below 2.5 k i dont often see spartens

might get a second cortus, they are fucking amazing. not a fan of terminator: they seem kinda price for not much gain

I've seen spartan deathstars played at 1500 points and less, though then it's often just 5 of the particular flavour of terminators.
Plus side of Alpha Legion is that if you don't want to invest too many points in a counter then a Saboteur is quite a decent option.

>>50318218
People often seem to underestemate Seekers. I've been running a barebones squad of 10, and they often kill 7-9 dudes of any infantery unit that isn't hugging cover in a single volley.

It's actually something I put in my application, the fact that generals are often invaded by memes and actually a complicated place to have a meaningful discussion within.

>>50319558
I mean, it's probably just a way to congratulate myself for being part of it, but I always considered /tg/ one of the mature boards, without the need to use memes as anything else as tongue in cheek or inside jokes.

The moment memes replace actual discussion, the board turns into /b/, /v/ or /pol/.
And the problem is, /tg/ has been gping down this road for quite some time now. The same bait/shitty/memetic threads are posted over and over, and it kills the board slowly, because people are tired of it.

But anyway, I write this kind of post pretty regularly, it probably won't change. Which is, sadly, the proof of what I'm saying.
