I'm tempted by Night Lords and Emperor's Children. I wouldn't be totally opposed to TS either if they weren't so shafted compared to everyone else.

How are the current Noise Marine models? Are they resin? Are there decent ones available from FW?

So only models with VotLW will gain the Legion benefits? Meaning cultists and spawn won't get anything, correct?

Regardless I'm quite pleased with what I'm seeing. Would have loved a way to "mark" vehicles or at least helbrutes, but you can't have everything.

If the current rumors are to be trusted, I'm already thrilled. But that's the icing on the cake for me

>>50506236
Why don't you go to Dakka and find out?

>>50506236
They according to the leak have
"Gains: Endless hatred (units w/VotLW have Hatred; but also can re-roll failed to-hits every round of close combat vs. unit which contains armies of imperium in it); First among traitors (Chaos Termies & Chosen are troops) "
And the detachment gives them Fear, Crusader and deep strikers roll from turn 1. The warlord auto passes this

So Tzeentch marked CSM? When would these ever be run now?

Not that they were before but you see my point

They all look pretty solid and fluffy. I'm a little suprised Word Bearers didn't get something with cultists, but it looks like that's Alphas. Transferrable Warlord sounds really fun, can't wait to try that. Goingto need to buy some daemons for my Word Bearers and Thousand Sonnys. Other than OPink Horrors, what's worth summoning?

Word Bearers rules are half-assed.

>Gal Vorbak!
we get one of the worst melee units in the game as troops, with no buffs

>Dark Apostles!
they still can't take steeds or jump packs, and other legions get either fearless or hatred for free

>decurion!
It gives free boons(meh) and Crusader(why do I need a formation to get this buff? 30k word bearers are automatically great at sweeping advances)

The only thing their 40k legion rules get right is that they are a psyker-heavy legion and are good at daemonology. Still, the Chaos Warband formation is still decent, and they have some nice warlord traits and relics. But it seems like Word Bearers are still being designed to dominate casual herohammer, while the other legions are getting all the broken stuff.

>>50506285
Bloodletters and daemonettes are too dangerous to let live.

I've finally figured out why there's so many idiots in 40K. It's because you're all from Texas. Let me guess, you're also white.

>>50506216
>How are the current Noise Marine models? Are they resin? Are there decent ones available from FW?

EC? Wise choice. That's what I play right now, and I'm really looking forward to taking drugs.

The current Noise Marines are a combination of plastic and resin. But you can do conversions to make them all-plastic if you're willing to put in the effort.

Forge World has the Kakophoni troops from Horus Heresy in resin that could also be totally used as Noise Marines.

How bad is a Thousand Sons legion army without Rhubrics?

noob question:

I put my first squad of firewarriors together, gave half of them pulse rifles and half carbines

will people care whether the model has a rifle or carbine? like if I wanted a full squad of rifles can the carbine guys count as rifle guys?

They are all half assed, because the CSM codex, itself is such a mess. EC, DG, and WE are in the best place w/ free fearless. IW can do some stupid shit and NL with the raptor formations gets fear at -4.

>>50506431
Decent. You have to pay for MoT on everything but you don't waste 150min for a 5 man squad of Thousand Sons. Which leaves you open to take more than 20 models.

Granted, without Rubrics, are you really playing Thousand Sons? Or are you just running Tzeentch Marines while minmaxing rules?

Guffaw.

>>50506372
It's crazy. They get an incredible formation, without a new release and being stuck with plas/resin hybrids.

Yet Thousand Sons, which just came out, have really underwhelming formations.

I dunno about you, but Noise Marines might actually be one of the best shooting troops in the game now for their cost. S5, Shred, Ignores Cover Salvo 3? All you need now is a Divination Psyker to cast Misfortune and you can start blasting away Wraithknights and stuff with the power of dubstep!

Don't forget the Splitfire Blastmaster with S9 Shred!

>>50506037
You forgot Death Guard also get re-roll 1s for FNP and if they get shot from more than 18" away they get Stealth.

Actually you forgot a lot there.

>>50506492
>>literally the worst legion in the book by far
That would be word bearers

Anyone played Armageddon on PC? It's half off and I'm thinking about getting it.

>>50506064
Here's some WE relics:

Talisman of Burning Blood (25) bearer's unit can move 3” more in move, run and charge;

GOREFATHER (30)[S+2, AP2, Armorbane,murderous strike(to-wound 6 = instant death, 2-handed, unwieldy];

Crimson Killer (20)pistol 12” S7,AP2,soulblaze;

brass collar of Bhorghaster (20) bearer nullify on 4+ to deny. If you nullify that, that psyker suffers perils

Bloodfeeder (30) crazy S+1,AP2 axe does 2D6 attacks but each roll of 1 is a wound to you no armor saves;

Berzerker's Glaive (30) S +2 AP3 demon weapon, specialist weapon, 2-handed, melee, epitome of rage (bearer gains FnP & IWND but loses Indep Character rule

>>50506500

Downside is you need 6 squads for the S5 but that much S5 ignores cover is probably worth it.

>>50506482

Is... is this some critique of privilege? Do the shoes symbolize something? Is that a man? A woman? A former either becoming the other? I feel like I've been dumped on the wrong side of context.

Post-post-postmodernism is bizarre, yo.

>>50506483

I'll use Rhubrics as 3++ objective holder, but I don't plan on running more than one squad because they're obnoxiously expensive. I still want to drop sorcerers where I can, like in an Annihilation force.

>>50506294
Don't forget

>Raptor Talon as Core Formation

>>50506492
word bearers

Since Mutilators have Tank Hunter now, what's the most damage they could do to a Knight in melee?

>>50506532
No,it's just retardation trying to pass off as meaningful

>Black Legion
Abaddon and a termicide squad deep striking turn 1

>Word Bearers
dude daemons lmao

>Iron Warriors
ObSec tank hunter obliterators, tank hunters havocs

>Alpha Legion
infiltrating combi-melta vets with shrouded on turn 1

>Night Lords
stealth raptors charging out of reserve and reducing your leadership by 4

>World Eaters
scout berzerker bikers and raptors

>Death Guard
plague bikers and relentless plague havocs

>Thousand Sons
psykers lol

>Emperor's Children
armywide 4+ FNP, combat drugs purchasable as a relic so you can make DOOMRIDER

Seems like all the legions got some strong rules as well as a lot of other interesting and fun stuff, some better than others though. The mono-god legions and the Iron Warriors in particular look gnarly.

>>50506336
Nice, thanks.

>>50506545
Word bearera seem okay to me. Not tournament level, but free boons, psyker heavy, summoning focused and ability to spread zealot around ain't bad.

You also get all of this for free, unlike every god-legion.

>>50506531
6 squads of noise marines is much easier than 9 squads of rubrics.

>>50506508
I feel like the WBs are deliberately handicapped with the Dank Apostles and Posessed to offset the inevitable summon spam. Makes sense to me, based on what little we know.

Cowboys, when you guys going to play someone good?

Though I hope you're right about Chaos

lol...

Deathguard don't get any new models or units and somehow their small 2 page spread in a book outhypes the entire Thousand Sons release with 5 new units, 6 new kits where one is a fucking primarch, and an entire new book dedicated to them.

My Nobz, 2 Stormboyz, and 2nd Boyz boxes came in today. My green puddle has grown to a green pond.

>>50506569

Flying DPs summoning Daemons on 3+ w/ Spell Familiar... Seems decent.

>>50506598
Soul Blaze is the greatest special rule in the game.

Not only does it have a chance of causing bolter hits if you remember to roll for it among the 23049 other things you need to remember, but it also buffs orks! They get really fired up! :^)

>>50506598
FOR TWENTY POINTS

SOMEONE ON THE DESIGN TEAM THINKS SOUL BLAZE IS WORTH 5 POINTS

Also apparently the entire design team things a plasma pistol is worth 15pts, but that's another discussion.

>>50506564
Bloodletters smash in to marine squads for a double KO due to their inbuilt power swords and s5, they're also the bane of rear armour
Daemonettes for nearly anything else.

Plague bearers can't run after deep striking so they're all in the perfect position for a template. t4 isn't that impressive but they have position and auto-glance on 6s so they're not 100% worthless.

They're immune to panic tests so they have to kill every last daemon in the squad least it trip them up.

DG are weird because their iconic unit (Plague Marines) are now almost entirely outshone by regular Marines with the Mark of Nurgle.

Only thing you're getting with Plague Marines is Blight Grenades and a Poisoned CCW, not really worth it for 7pts extra.

Still, who doesn't want 17pt Toughness 5 Relentless Fearless FNP (re-rolling 1s) chaos marines with Stealth beyond 18"?

My Death Guard army will be seeing a significant expansion I think...

I'm getting so tired of these bandaids.
I look at my CSM codex, and half the rules printed in it are out of date because they've been replaced with marginally better rules from some other halfassed supplement.
Just give me one consolidated book that isn't fucking garbage, GW. I'm not asking for much. I know you can do it. You gave the loyalist SM that much and more.

Time to make some blastmasters and add them to my 30k Kakophoni and jump back into 40k.

Is a heavy bolter with a Gargoyle head on it a good idea? Maybe dirge caster?

It's going to be 6x6 Noise Marines, 1 of each with a Blast Master, the other 5 with sonic blasters.

Is a Sorceror or Chaos Lord a better HQ?

I want to like it, but getting to pretend that I sort of have drop pods isn't exactly revolutionary. It's hard to get excited about Fear and Crusader when half the armies in the game are immune to Fear and being swept, but at least Eternal Hatred is cool. Too bad the best unit for combo-ing with the Speartip Strike (the Raptor Talon) won't benefit from Hatred, and the Terminator Annihilation Force is even more disappointing now that they'll always have Hatred anyways.

>>50506784

This is the equivalent of Angels of Death. It's condensing most of the chaos rules scattered all over the place into one volume while also making nurgle havocs OP

So why are new Thousand Sons supposedly so bad? Turning a 4++ into a 3++ on key units with blessing seems like it makes them near unkillable, especially if you max out the formation and then you can reroll those, making it a 89% invuln save on blessed units in maxed formations

and then you have fucktonnes of doombolts and AP3 to kill everything with

They're still stupidly expensive so they're just going to force saves on the few models you bring.
Ap3 is decent but strength is more important these days as people learn not to rely on armour anymore.

>>50506908
>Turning a 4++ into a 3++ on key units with blessing seems like it makes them near unkillable
Stop being retarded. The difference between 4++ and 3++ isn't that significant. Is it nice? Sure, but unit-wide blessings are fairly rare and throwing 2-3 dice at Force for no reason other +1 Invuln is a shitty plan.

>especially if you max out the formation
Way too expensive to do with anything other than the Warherd.

>fucktonnes of doombolts
No you don't. You'll have a couple if you're lucky.

AP3 is nice, but the base units are just too expensive.

Also, Veterans of the Long War is free to take.

>>50506953
>The difference between 4++ and 3++ isn't that significant.
It's the difference between tanking 3 hits and 2 hits, the same as the difference between BS3 and BS2. You never hear Guard whine about how everything they have can't shoot.

>>50506908
The cost of filling out any of the formation is insanely prohibitive. The rerolling 1s is almost impossible to get.

2 - Alpha legion (happy with this fluff/rules!)
Must: if no unique, no marks, if so get VotLW free, sorcerer can choose all powers from it’s God’s discipline
gains: Forward Operatives: Chosen become troops; Chosen, CSM, cultists gain infiltrate; Many Heads of the Hydra:if warlord slain pick a new friendly character from AL detachment or formation. He generates warlord trait immediately. Can do this as long as you can. Opponent won’t get Slay the Warlord if they haven’t killed last remaining warlord from this

WT: can gain infiltrate; once per game friendly AL character w/same “type” as you and can swap their positions; from turn 2 pick a reserve unit to come on auto for each turn; stealth warlord; cultists w/in 12” get furious charge & FnP 6+

relics: start of your move move 3D6 immediately, can take you from combat & enemy cannot consolidate; great guns & weapons; armor gives 2+ save w/2+ invuln vs. flamer weapons; bolter gets blast, ignore cover, poison 2+; give friendly cultists w/in 12” zealot.

army: Hidden deployment (all non-vehical) shrouded 1st turn; cult uprising (cultist units destroyed on 4+ back into ongoing reserves)

Core: Chaos warband

command: Lord of Legion

aux: 8 formations (see Black Legion)
tact obj: capture enemy/unclaimed building; your cultists get destroyed gain VP, destroy a DS,H&Run, Outflank or scout unit; your infiltrators kill a unit; get into enemy deploy zone; kill character (more for more characters)

Thanks Anon!
I just assume that as an HQ character, I'm probably up against 2+ most of the time.
That said, I guess invulvns are often 4++ or greater anyway so I should get the most out of my speed.

>>50506969
I'm not saying it's insignificant, I'm saying that it doesn't make them "unkillable." The issue with Thousand Sons was never that their 4++ wasn't good enough, it was that they were too expensive for their efficacy and relative weakness to small arms fire. Wrath of Magnus did very little for either of those issues.

It looks even worse relative to what the other legions got, especially for non-Cult units. Nurgle Chaos Space marines are 16 PPM for Fearless, Relentless, Feel no Pain, T4 MEQ's. Tzeentch Chaos Space Marines are 15 PPM for MEQ's with a 6++ that turns into a 5++ if you bless them. Word Bearers are the only ones that got shafted harder.

>>50507187
Lol that was my list the other day. I actually think its the best one. That or a Tzaangor warheard with 6 spawn and the plus 12 inches relic. Anything that doesnt have rubrics seems good lol.

Upon not being retarded, they pretty much gave AL their 30k rules, nvm. Also, what is the "lost and the damned" formations im seeing on dakka in the book?

>>50507121
Not him, but Drop Pods have the advantage of not getting shot to pieces if you go second, and Sternguard heavy builds aren't particularly competitive in the super-MSU meta of 7th edition.

I'm looking for the audio copy of Master of Mankind. Anyone got it?

>>50507123

my current list is 1500: Sorc @180, 3 Rubrics @242ea, and some combination of Daemon Engines or Obliterators for the other 500.

New base of 2 exalted w/ jump book 9 Scarabs and 9x2 Rubrics is 1314, So add a blue tank and I should be good.

>>50507187
I think Jump book and Regular Sorcerers in Termi armor might be better 2+ rerolling 1s is pretty good

>>50507205
MoN is +1T their marines are T5, Bikes T6

>>50507225
Probably copied from Traitors Hate or BL Sup

I'm actually okay with Word Bearers.

Making them good at summoning fits heavily, and is actually pretty good? (Some Math-Anon: What're the chances of casting a WC 3 spell, harnessing on 3s rerolling with, say, 4 dice? What's the optimal dice to throw at this, how often do you perils?)

Zealot-spreading is decent, esp. if you slap it on, say, the Traitor's Hate possessed formation. (Those things are fucking NASTY if you get them into CC)

The relics all actually look pretty decent. The Crozius is almost certainly AP2 or 3, maybe with daemon weapon, since otherwise it's literally a double-priced power maul.

Crusader's meh, but it helps a little with doing Black Templar-style mass infantry charges on foot.

I just hope they've got a decent way to spam sorcerers. Do we know if the Cyclopia Cabal is still Black Legion only?

>>50507225
Dark Apostle + 4-9 cultist squads, Apostle gets a zealot bubble, cultist unit come back on a 4+ when they die.

2 x 5 acolytes with a Demo Charge - 2 x 60
2 x Rockgrinders with heavy mining lasers - 2 x 75
Subterranean Uprising

4 x 5 acolytes with an icon, rock saw and a leader - 4 x 85
3 x 5 metamorphs with icon, 1 with claw, 1 with whip, and leader with whip and bonesword - 3 x 91

veterannoob just confirmed a couple things about Word Bearers:

A Daemon Prince can take the WB-only Sigil of Corruption that also gives AW and Fear, thus getting around the "no sigil on a daemon prince" rule.

The Cursed Crozius costs 35 points because it is AP3. It's basically a relic blade that can be dual wielded, concussive and gives Preferred Enemy(Imperium), in other words its pretty good.

What squad are you sending the Magus with also I'd be concerned with having the whip/bonesword on such small metamorph units I feel dropping those and picking up a couple more metamorphs for the squad with claws/whips would be better suited. And what are your plans for the russ? I'm guessing light vehicle hunting with the exterminator/las combo?

>>50507338

It's 29 models, 10ML , two squads of rubrics w/ 9ea, Scarabs w/ 9, and 2 exalted w/ ML3 for the war cabal. And a tank for the Aux because we don't have rules for Rubric Contemptors =[

I would use a Laser Vindi but we can't get those either.

>>50507123
Honestly, I have no idea what the optimal, non-Magnus build for that looks like. Daemon allies are pretty much necessitated by how expensive everything in-codex is. At 1,000, I've run this a couple times at the LGS, but I don't think it will translate well to higher point values.

>Grand Coven
>War Cabal
Thousand Sons- Rhino- 185
Scarab Occult- 250
2x Sorcerer- Mastery Level 3, Spell Familiar- 280
>Warherd
Sorcerer- 75
3x10 Tzaangor- 210

Tzaangor tend not to accomplish much behind soaking bullets for the Sorcerers, and they won't manage that for long at higher point values. Thousand Sons and Scarab Occult just don't do enough offensively to be worth taking more of. Best bet at higher point values would probably be to make some sort of deathstar. Hell, maxed out War Coven with Terminator Armor might actually be the best possible build, but psychic deathstars wear out their welcome fast.

Your point?

So what do Word Bearers get, guys? Anything good?

Even mediocre?

Please?

What's the overall opinion on Traitor Legions, too.

>>50507662
can summon Daemons on a 3+

>>50507662
You can summon daemons on a 3+ and you can take possessed as troops if you really hate yourself.
Most people figure Death Guard and Emperor's Children to have gotten the best deal of the lot, but other legions (Iron Warriors, Night Lords, Alpha Legion) came out pretty good as well.

>>50507674
Do they still perils on doubles though?

>>50507674
>>50507679

That's it? Nothing else? What about warlord traits or relics?

>>50507699
I think someone posted that further up in the thread.

Have most of the problems with fine cast been resolved? Been out of the game for a while. Not sure if I should hunt for old metal models or just go for the new stuff.

>>50507699
they also have a couple mediocre rules that are not worth mentioning

Cast Daemonology on a 3+, get Crusader in a detachment, various buffs to Zealot and dark apostles, possessed are troops (Though you still want to take them in a formation w/ the DP for all three rolls, anyways.)

Relics actually look dope as fuck.

Raptor Talon gives -2 which stacks with base -2 so they're forcing Fear tests on Necrons at fucking Ld 6. Throw the Hellturkey formation in there and you're scaring the pants off Trazyn himself.

Disordered charge doesn't affect Hatred, it's not a charge bonus like Furious Charge or Rage. Hatred triggers in the first round of close combat - even if you were the one getting charged.

...huh.

So maelstrom of gore? that formation that's 4-8 berzerker squads and thus kill yourself?

well, in addition to the red rain thing and free MoK for the lord, it gives everybody fleet and +3" to charge. your chaos lord can also bring the talisman of GO GO GO for MORE 3" bonuses, then you get the 2d6 move at the start, and rerollable charge distances...

it still seems bad cause too many berzerkers, but you get up to 30" move and run, and up to 36" move and charge?

oh also, due to the magic of chaos warband, where you get double boon bonuses, if you have the worldlord trait for FUCK THAT I WANT MORE ATTACKS INSTEAD, does that mean you'd get +2 attacks every time you kill a guy?

(AND SINCE IT'S CHOOSE, WHAT IF YOU ROLLED THE ADDITIONAL BOON THING, AND JUST KEPT ROLLING ADDITIONAL BOONS, AND THUS KEPT GAINING ATTACKS!?!?!?!)

That formation with some bikers and maulerfiends as support could be really nasty for getting stuck in quickly.

So do the legions need to fill out there detachemnts like the sons have to to get the rerolling 1s? Or are they just getting this shit for free?

>>50507857
2017 is year of the Admech b01z

Get in on the ground floor.

Tau is for fags that don't even paint their shit. Admech is for fine gentlemen of taste that love gorgeous models.

They could buff cultists for once you know, im not talking make them IG because that too good, maybe like a 6+ invuln, extra attacks, or whatever, maybe even make them fucking cheaper or able to hold better weapons

>>50508043
Free, TSons are the worst because of that requirement.

>>50508061
Cultists aren't meant to be good, they're meant to be cheap bodies to throw into the grinder.

>>50508069
Wrong. EC need the full 6 units of Noise Marines for the +1 S weapons, DG need the full 7 units of Plague Zombies for the -1 T plague flies aura.

>>50507902
That 2d6 move is pretty baller for helping Havocs get into a better mid-field position to hold objectives and punch the enemy's face in with bullets.

It's a shame they didn't let Helbrutes get all the "legionnaire" bonuses. Infiltrating Alpha Dread would've been great, as would World Eaters rage machines.

>>50508069
Fuck. That. 9 Scarab Occult bare is 2250 points. If thats fucking true...

Just remember if he joins the sub uprising that squad loses the 2d6 for ambush because the magus doesn't have it and for putting him with the neophytes he won''t be able to cast non-witchfire abilities out of the chimera so they'd have to pop out somewhere along the way to cast those juicy summoning spells. As for what to buff for the sub uprising metamorphs with whips/claws are always great. And along those lines with the 4 saws you have with leaders and icons that leaves you only really 2 models before you start losing someone important. Know if you have alot of heavy tanks in your meta those saws could pay off but against infantry and even light vehicles I would rather take 3 more guys in each squad than the rocksaw as it gives you more bodies and more rends to deal with those targets with. As I have been told many a times before boyz before toyz.

I'm going to attach a list I've been working with that I've actually been shifting between Broodcycle focused and Neophyte Cavalcade/Sub Uprising without too many changes mostly just dropping the acolyte ward if need be and changing the balance of acolyte to hybrid squads. I like the idea of keeping some dedicated transports even in sub uprising because then even if they don't get those juicy 6's they still have infiltrating transports 18" away from the enemy lines they can hop into if they got unfortunate rolls.

>>50508348
Never ever axe the Magus. Just stick him with some Neophytes and disembark as soon as possible.

This is why I don't run a cavalcade, though.

>>50508348
Well for infantry you'll want to be able to hit first or at the same time which the saw prevents and if you are going against 5+ or 6+ saves like guard or tyranids or other cult members ap 5 on the rending claws will be just as effective. As for the Magus he can tag along with acolytes and hyrbids and be more assault oriented if you are feeling daring especially if you are giving him a crouchling and 2 familiars because that's 6 extra attacks with the possibility of rending that he has the chance of tearing someone up in a duel with and don't forget his force weapon. I like keeping the Magus around just for those extra 2 dice for denial or if you really need to get a power off from the Patriach.

>>50508348
Also for vehicles remember that rends are auto penetrating 10 and auto glancing 11 just with your basic acolytes.

>>50507699

Warlord Traits are actually pretty good and are fluffy. One of them let's you basically get a choice of boons on your gifts of mutation, another lets you give special rules to your troops since you're still a legion and have a chain of command.

Relics:
15 point skull that makes you hate the Imperium especially the smurfs even more than ever
10 points for an extra Malefic Daemonology power(basically an auto-take on a marked or daemonology-using sorcerer)
15 points for a scroll that gives you +d6 power dice once per game(another really handy psyker support item)
15 points for some kind of cursed relic that makes you harder to charge and gives you pseudo-defensive grenades
30 points for a sigil of corruption that also grants adamantium will and fear, even a daemon prince can take it apparently if you want to do some good old Grimoire memery
35 points for an AP3 Crozius that gives you Preferred Enemy(Imperium)

Basically the legion tactics are bad but the army runs psyker heavy with good morale, but not forced into mono-tzeentch like the TSons.

I'm saying this not because there's any source suggesting they would do this right now, but because at the moment taking a Traitor Legion is a huge advantage, and there's no reason not to be one unless you're going Crimson Slaughter or you want to run Huron or Bile. And if you do that, you're basically missing out on free VotLW and some legion tactics that give out very powerful bonuses.

So having options for a renegade warband, especially a generic one like Red Corsairs, might be helpful. Anyone who started with Crimson Slaughter is definitely going to be begging for a decurion, that's for sure.
