I have exactly same problem as this Anon >>50561153
Also thinking about Tau, SW or Nids so I will give answers for questions you asked him

tl;dr
I'm poorfag who wants to play low-point games (500 - 1000 max) and KT and thinks about three armies
- Army with great lore and nice models but probably unplayable (Nids)
- Newbie friendly army with easy to paint good-looking models (Tau)
- Fuckin space killing machines on cyber-wolves - that's metal as fuck and probably cheap enough for me (SW)

>>50561160
I really like Nids lore - emotionless swarm of claws and fangs rampaging through universe - there is nothing I could dislike about it. The Greater Good and young race making its first steps in grimdark universe is also appealing to me.

Models - I like them all so let's talk about technical aspects.
Tau's seem to be the easiest to paint. I like their retro-futuristic a e s t h e t i c no homo and the fact that most of them have no faces and small amount of hard details
I don't really like Imperium and SM models - they look bland to me. Unexpectedly there is something catchy in SW design. I'm looking at them and I'm like "well fuck me, but they are fancy as fuck".

>>50561508
I want to play low-point games and Kill Team so I will probably stop at buying SC Box and maybe some day build an 1k pts army but don't really want to go "bigger". I'm poorfag so I really would like to keep this as budget as possible. Playing with dinky, itsy-bitsy swarm would be comfy as fuck but I know it's rather unhandy and impractical. That’s why I’m thinking about Tau and SW too

Many of the heretics that they face are hulking, giant Chaos Space Marines. Space Marines are already mutants, but the fallen are doubly so.

The high heels allow them to stand tall enough to deny space marines a significant amount of their height advantage, and thus slay heretics better.

Yes. 90% of a mini's facial appearance comes from the paintjob. Without the deep lined shadows in the cheeks she'd look a lot younger.

I like how they even got blanche to paint the example mini

It makes me sad because the actual sisters range will never be this fucking blanche

What do good World Eater armies look like these days? Was thinking of buying some berserkers and rebuilding my chaos army with the new legion rules.

But what do chaos players take these days?

>>50564458
Nah, that wasn't too bad for me, and it was the third kit I ever built, after the rest of the Get Started box.
The big problem is all the tiny spikes on the Skitarii and Sicarians that always break.
Also fitting that tiny cable linking the front leg to the body is difficult even with tweezers.

I really should have picked something simpler to build and paint for my first army and minis, but they look so cool and play so well.....

>>50564502

I did those with some tweezers. Makes it much easier, and if you mess up you only get some glue on the underside you never see.

I normally run WEs to support my IWs, but I run them alone in lowish point games with a bunch of 'zerkers in the Maelstrom of Gore with Kharn, a Daemon Prince with the Black mace, and a couple of raptor squads. It doesn't always work well, but it's always fun.

Don't even bother buying Berzerkers, in a World Eaters detachment, fucking everyone with a free VotLW is basically a cheaper Berzerker. Berzerker Termies, Bikers, whatever. Traitor's Legions is what you want.

The new Traitor's Legion book comes out this weekend and the World Eater get solid special rules in it. Berserkers themselves end up being overcosted but the rules almost turn every other CSM in the army into Khorne Berserkers. The leaked rules are on 1d4chan's CSM tactics page.

right

>>50564444
In my experience, I've found that any of the space marines are really easy to paint and do look really good! (Especially the thunder wolves.) However, the Tau will definitely be easier to paint due to their very box like aesthetic. Tyranids while being very unique IMO, will require a bit more effect than the other 2 army's due to most of their models being flesh and not armoured like the other 2.

World Eaters got a big buff. All regular Chaos Space Marines(including terminators, bikes etc) automatically become Berzerkers. They get the special rules(Fearless, Adamantium Will, Furious Charge) for free as their legion tactics(on top of free VotLW).

The almighty Bloodfeeder is back, replace your attacks characteristic with 2d6 and take an AP2 wound every time you roll a 1 on a die. There's also another daemon weapon for a grand total of THREE daemon weapons available to khorne CSM, you can use Gorefather(an established canon WE relic axe) too now. There's also a dickish brass collar that gives you +2 DtW and reflects back perils if you succeed, a plasma pistol that doesn't get hot(lol) and A BANNER THAT GIVES A UNIT +3 TO MOVING, RUNNING AND CHARGING. So basically WE get some really good wargear to make up for the fact that they cant take sorcerers.

You also get a detachment where everyone except your tanks get a 2d6" free move at the start of the game.

The original berzerker codex entry is just if you want to use the Maelstrom of Gore core formation, or if that +1 WS is really worth the 4 extra points per model.

They're on the weaker side at the moment. But no, not unplayable unless you're trying to win big tournaments. Also if you can now make them quite a bit nastier with Genestealer Cult allies. That's something they never really had access to in the entire history of allies rules in 40k.

What would everybody's opinion be of a small force of Tempestus Scions all riding in Valkryies supported by a very Close combat/Close quarters oriented Tau Farsight list? (Yes I'm the same guy as before)

Like I've said in previous threads I'm starting off small with the tau, and I already have the needed models to pull this off, 4 regular scion squads and 2 command squads with two valkyries.

My thoughts being that until I build up the Tau force with more fire warriors/breachers in devilfish, this could be the surrogate until then. Lots of scion squads grav chuting out of valkyries to take objectives and to melt either vehicles/any possible opposition to my crisis suits.

>>50564694
>Bloodfeeder being back

This pleases me greatly.

>Gorefather
Wasn't that destroyed in the books and only Gorechild was salvaged? Either way that's cool.

With the Brass Collar, is it that as long as I have the collar I deny on a 4+ or does that only trigger when a power targets that unit... Because if I can shut down Invisibility I will grab Khorne and love it till the day I die. I hate loosing to that kind of bullshit.

>>50564846

>>50564843

They are retarded.

But GW is retarded too, for some reason exalted sorcs cant take terminator armor. And all thousand sons cult sorcs can only get force staff models now despite previously being modeled with force swords.

>>50564856
Sure, just bring like 40 of the gaunts.

>>50564444
Although I don't play any of these armies they surprisingly the armies I against the most, so let me give you my view as a CSM and IG player.

Nids are stronger in low points games when your foes can't bring some of the goofier formations. Hive Tyrants are strong, and even stronger with wings (Tyranids are often called Codex: Flyrant). One of the general rules for KT is that more models are better than fewer elite models so picking up some Gaunts with devourers can really lay the hurt on your foes.

Tau are pretty damn good at every point level. If you're only playing 1000 points or less games then you shouldn't be running the big mechs like Riptides (You could, but you'd be a dick and they're pretty expensive $ wise). Their basic units have solid guns and Crises suits can ruin someone's day if you get lucky. Although basic Firewarriors and Pathfinders are more expensive to run points wise than Guants they are cheap enough to field a decent number of and will almost always earn their points back in KT.

Space Wolves are special. Lots of their units are bad (As much as any Space Marine unit can be bad) and their units are more expensive (pts wise) to field than Tau or Nids. Thunder Wolf Cavalry is crazy good. I hate Thunder Wolf Cavalry because with Storm Shields they are insanely hard to kill (3++ T5 W2). In KT they play about as well as Vanilla marines.

So all in all they're all fine to good armies to play in low point games. If you think you might eventually not be poor and spend money on building a larger army then Tau are likely the way to go as they become increasingly powerful as the points go up well Space Wolves stay about average and Nids decline.

As a note on the off chance you don't know the rules for KT you can only run Elites, Fast Attacks, and Troops. So no Tyrants, Wolf Lords, or Ethereals.

>>50564769
>>50564836

>CQC Tau

A bad idea. Tau are bad at melee and Farsight himself is only decently CC capable and his advantage lies in the durability of his suit, he is otherwise outclassed by any similarly-costed CC oriented character. Fire Warrior Breachers might help, but they're still relying on shooting and got getting tied up in melee. You'll also want to take advantage of supporting fir in overwatch as much as possible. But WS2 and I2 with Ld7/8 is going to see most Tau units murdered in melee by anything tangentially melee built, and the Farsight Preferred Enemy in melee only works on Orks.

Farsight's whole deal is that he still chooses to fight at range because that's where his army's strength is, but doesn't eschew melee training because of all the things that like to close to melee. It's to be avoided, not intentionally built towards, but prepared for as a contingency.

How the fuck did they miss that Blanche, whilst a creative concept artist who helped define the asthetic of the universe, is a fuck awful actual final product artist?

Blanche's designs should be handed to a dedicated sculptor. A lot of his illustrations were. Blanche himself gets that distinctive Blanche style we all love, but a sculptor with their own skillset can figure out how to translate that feeling to the miniature without it being as absolutely close to the artwork as possible.

His Necron concepts are sexy, with them looking like undead lords made of metal more than robot space Egyptians. I honestly want to recycle the specific design for the one mounted on a cybersteed for a Tech-Priest, I just need to find a place that sells good 28mm horse skeletons to build off of.

>>50564991
Yeah when I say close quarters/close combat Tau, I mean a more aggressive approach to the faction rather than a static gunline, breachers riding in devilfish, and crisis suits with a few of the melee oriented signature systems dropping in, doing their usual thing. And where applicable either popping open transports or mopping up GEQ infantry that has either been weakened by them or the breachers.

It wouldn't be focused on close combat, but more close quarters persay.

Then, yes, it's possible. Tau have a whole lot of mobility options, as most of their suits are highly mobile and Devilfish can definitely bring those warriors where they need to be. Breachers can do well, and I wouldn't count Pulse Carbines out for their Assault 2 profile.

Stealth Suits can shine if they have cover to pp around between, and Crisis Suits kitted with Fusion Blasters can pop heavy targets fairly effectively. And if you don't feel like lugging Pathfinders around in a Devilfish, you can always use Forge World Tetras for much more mobile Markerlights.

Hey if Night Lords have Warp Talons somehow (I believe they do and use them as hunting dogs, iirc, maybe that was someone else though) then they must have Hellturkeys too right? :^)

Doesn't matter. If they can't do a battleforce for a faction they won't, Any they can make the forces strange to just be plastic. That's not an issue. Eldar still has plenty of plastic kits.

Run the Hellforged Warpack and just take dreadnoughts, that's fluffy enough too since Night Lords DO have those.

>implying getting a free 4++ on a dreadnought is a bad thing

You could also take cultists to represent local conscripts/rebels(cannon fodder). After terrifying the locals into submission the Night Lords would benefit from "volunteers" to help them keep control over the planet.

Spawn would also work with Night Lords, just model them as underhive mutants who have joined up with their psychopathic liberators.

He's actually right. This is a pretty old golden demon, and back in the older editions Iron Hads were known for sometimes using the "Iron within iron without" battlecry.

I was actually thinking of running the units in a CAD+Raptor Talon combination. Here's my shitty attempt to justify fluff-rape.

>Lord [NameNotDecidedYet] (NNDY) takes great pleasure in the thrill of the hunt. Most Night Lords warbands have no higher purpose whatsoever, no goals beyond their immediate whims. They raid and pillage, causing terror largely because it is the only way they know how to fight. NNDY, however, is not "most" Night Lords. For thousands of years he has perfected the skill of the hunt; the vicious pursuit, the long chase, letting his prey think they have escaped before reeling them back in. The hunt is its own justification, and NNYD's warband have been known to accept missions most other Night Lords would ignore, so long as there is the possibility of chasing down a particularly interesting foe.
>But NNDY does not work on his own. Over the long millennia he has observed one constant: the most efficient hunters work in packs. It all began when many of the Raptors in his care devolved into the howling beast-things others call Warp Talons. When unleashed on the foe, these once-men had a perfect success rate - they never once failed a hunt, working together by instinct in a manner no mortal creature seemed to match. Thus it is that NNDY has traveled the stars and the warp finding the greatest of hunting beasts, using them to terrorize unlucky planets or individuals as his warband choose to make their sport. The warband work in perfect concert with the chained, taunted, and tormented Heldrakes and Maulerfiends NNDY has acquired over the years. And so these Night Lords overcame the Legion's traditional distaste for chaos and found a worthwhile higher purpose

Power Fists on the Raptors is going to die before combat a lot.

You've already got 4 AV13 hulls. I would keep going with that. Add a pair of Maulerfiends, maybe even drop the Raptors for a third.

i want to do the Spawn retinue, but i dont have enough points. if i drop done each Exalted but my Warlord to a budget Sorcerer, i'll have 3 75 pts ML1 Sorcerers with a 3+ 6++ doing nothing.. i'll shift somethings around.
that seems awful.

Not that guy but 3 strength 9 lances unlimited range shots should really help with his lack of AV.

Nah EC have always been multi-roll elite heavy forces including some CC, and being a melee power-house requires getting into combat.

>>50566264
In my opinion, it is, but you can do much with that difference wtih your current list.

I want to love the ExSorcs as extra wound is lovely, +1bs helps with spell accuracy and the lance beam is fucking jawesome. But unfortunately unless a model has access to a bunch of upgrades that makes them retardedly OP like Smashfucker, the game will always favour multiple weaker model to a handful of strong unit, because it is still a dice-based game where being able to field 500 lasguns is more important than fielding 3 god-kings.

>>50566291
>b-but I want to actually play marines...

Play 30k then

>>50566120

I'm actually thinking about my Warband being lead by a DP with the relic claws. The only problem is being forced to take a mark.

>>50566322
Idiot. Did I say it did not fit the Mk1 Rhinos? No I didn't

I just said the recast is from the fail Forgeworld one that had extra resin all over the place.

Once the extra resin is gone it fits like a glove to Mk2 Rhinos.

>>50564398
I'm guessing because it's because you got the "for ants" edition.

>>50566340
no

>>50566331
Multi-role is one thing, outclassing the actual melee legion is another. Slaneeshi troops have always been the fastest of Chaos.

>>50566264
Everything but the Lance is irrelevant outside melee. Exalted's without a relic weapon aren't very good at melee anyways (enjoy that Force Staff) unless they get lucky with powers, and you don't particularly want to lock your expensive shooty units into CC's that they're unlikely to win anytime soon.

>>50566248
>his opponents can't handle a single AV13 hull at 2k
Shit, nigga, it's only got a 48" range and can't JSJ.

>>50566291

Emperor's Children were always the best. Just because Noise Cults get all the attention, doesn't mean that the rest of the Legion couldn't keep up.
Besides:
> Slaanesh gets 3 S4 Attacks at I5
> Khorne gets 4 S5 Attacks at I4

Khorne needs to charge, but fuck me if he isn't winning that.
And getting a Fearless, FC MEQ with Rage for 15pts is still a fucking steal, regardless of the other Legion competition.

> KDK is shit and its sole reason for existence is the Gorepack. Run World Eaters and Ally them in
> And also take a First War vehicle somewhere for those Invul Flesh Hounds

So 1kSons are a disappointment competitively. But how are they casually? Like, orks/nids "don't even try" level, or DEldar/BAngels "Still fun if you don't try too hard" level.

>>50566291
Considering that most of their buffs are to Noise Marines, not really.

>>50566332

kek I'm actually going to go with this. Thanks anon! Apparently there's an EC ship called the Andronicus so I'll just change it to Andronikus because Gothic doesnt have to make sense anyway.

i tried. i want my warlord to bean exalted sorcerer, so i put down the other 3 to ML1 paperweights and added a Warherd with 5 Spawn. I am now 60 points over, but when i also reduce the Warlord to normal he will die much quicker, contribute less in both psychic and assault.. fuck.

They have no cheap guys that arent demons that are worth taking (No tzaangor's are not worth taking).

So its back to A sprinkle of TS that cost way too much with demon allies so you can scrap out wins.

You'll be able to play friendies and some games with the right powers and rolls you'll do well. That or you buy Magnus and win.

What order should I read them in? Release? Chronological? Is there a "best" one I can just read out-of-order without a problem?

>>50566315
Honestly, full Cabal just ain't workable. The Scarab Occult and Thousand Sons are just too many points that don't really do anything a lot of the time.

>>50566380
> Slaanesh gets 3 S4 Attacks at I5

You're missing the Combat Drug bonuses, that can potentially be 3 cumulative stat buffs for all non-vehicle units. Add to that Doom Sirens, +1 S sanic blasters with Shred, and there is no way in hell Berzerkers can compete.

>>50566382

Any comment on how well the Three Xeno Alliance in pic-related works with Eldar, Orks, and Tau? My group wants to recreate their FFG RPG army in the actual game and isn't shy about using homebrews.

>>50566436
I bought Magnus for painting and ruining the day of the brat that insists on challenging me every time he sees me at the store ever since I beat his awfully microed grey knights with my chaos daemons once, an experience he wouldn't take advice from

>>50566519
Besides the huge amount of fluffrape it's fine.

How will IC getting kicked out of mixed units if the warlord dies / units in other faction's transports

>>50566560
I imagine you just run them away from each other for a turn or two, until they're within normal Alliance Chart boundaries.

>>50566560

>Player accidentally had Farseer in base contact

>I bet he didn't see that coming

>>50566436
Depends on how much of the force is allied Daemons/Renegades & Heretics. Pure Thousand Sons (without Magnus) are Ork tier. Just way too many points spent on units that aren't durable or killy enough for their exorbitant price tags. Sure, you can dominate the psychic phase, but the majority of good powers are force multipliers.

Magnus is absolutely, bugfuck, balls-to-the-wall overpowered. Any game he's in is decided on the bottom of turn 1. Either the opponent killed him before he took off and dropped down to, at a minimum a 3++ rerolling 1's, or he's now flying around and deleting swaths of the table with his D-beam. Sprinkle in some Daemons to summon and control the ground game, and you're set.

>>50566604
A much stronger list.

>>50566602
They did a light blurb about reworking Henchmen units that sounds like they'll function like Drones / Wolves so the Inquisitior + Henchmen can join a unit.

Hi all, just finished putting together my first unit of Ork boyz! Gonna paint them soon. Is the plastic they use recyclable?

Perfectly fine for competitive play. For casual play, swap Magnus out for a bunch of Daemons or mortal allies.

>>50566653
Henchmen were great because ther were uber-customizable squads, I hope they don't get reduced to shitty guardsmen.

>>50566653
Are you telling me I could have Death Cult Assassins, Priest, Psyker, Crusaders and an Inquisitor joining my Battle Sisters Squads. In some Glorious T3 squads?

>>50566634
As someone who knows the Boyz and Farseer who'd be involved, he deserves it.

>>50566552
Make sure to describe turning his leader into gold when you use gaze of Magnus on him mate lol

>>50566678
i guess my dream of actually playing Thousand Sons instead minsize+Daemons will not come true, huh?

>>50564444
Get the Space Wolves. Thunderwolf cav are one of the best units in the game but remain fairly balanced. When you want an upgrade, just buy two more sets of start collectings and you can build 2 Wolf Lords on Thunderwolves to go with your 7 Cavalry and 30 Grey Hunters. Don't listen to the fags on here, Space Wolves are awesome and a lot of fun to play as.

>>50566513
>that can potentially be 3 cumulative stat buffs for all non-vehicle units
That's a relic, so it's most likely only for the character equipped with it

>>50566697
Delicious 10 point psyker plus cheap acolyte tax was magical.

>>50566668
Sure. I'm play Tzeentch Daemons. I've got at least double your Warp Charge count, so I can at the absolute least blunt the fuck out of Magnus's output and you won't be able to stop me from absolutely steam-rolling you on the ground-game with summoned Daemons in addition to the ~70 models I start with.

>>50566697
I mean if they keep the customization, but now can join other units. It might be interesting. Crusaders give discount Stormshields and are effectively Shielddrones.

>>50566519
Tau: Etheral, minimum shas'las and vespids for fast
Ork: weirdboy, grots, tankbustas for heavy
Eldar: autarch, storm guardians and I don't know what is bad for eldar in Elite

>>50566668
I main Tau, so yes.
Just be careful with forewarning, and have a backup list for weaker armies.

I don't know about the worst list I can make, but this is all the models I have with how each one is modeled. Unless I somehow modified them to have power weapons or plasma pistols, I can't make them worse.

>>50566619
Well, we're all using it, so it should be fine.

>>50566519
The average point cost of 3 troops is usually far less than 3 FA or 3 elite slots, so this game is unlikely to be equal points.

>>50566604
Not a legal list unfortunately...

Cabal is (min):
2 Exalted / Normal Sorcerers
1 Rubric
1 Scarab Occult

So you're missing a Sorcerer!

Magnus is a Command Choice, and the Warherd consists of Sorcerer and 3 Tzaangor Units (plus your spawn), but you still need a third Sorcerer to use the detachments/formations.

List is fine if it's a CAD though.

>>50566702
>Speaking of which, one of the coolest things in the codex is a change to the way that the Inquisitorial Henchman Warband works. To further represent the unique nature of the Ordos (and a lot of the fiction featuring these mysterious individuals) Inquisitors can now go to battle with a squad of elite power-armoured warriors appropriate to their specialisation: Grey Knights for the Ordo Malleus, Deathwatch for the Ordo Xenos or Battle Sisters for the Ordo Hereticus, they still keep their acolytes, general hangers-on and space-oranguatan-mechanics.

Sounds like it.

>>50566724
Nope. Wrath of Magnus was a pretty shitty update for Thousand Sons fags.

I already own 2x9 rubricae and some converted terminators, so I'm thinking I'll just hop in on the new KDM kickstarter instead of filling out my Sons.

>>50566306
humm, what should i put on the raptor champ then?

annoyingly, i dont have anymore av13 models :(

>>50566654
>Is the plastic they use recyclable?
Technically yes, but a lot of local recyclers don't accept polystyrene (It's labeled 6 in plastic identification). You'll have to check with the rules for your area.

>>50566643
I'm personally toying with running the Ahriman exile formation with demons allies as support.

I dont need to buy any of the new models for this. Two groups of 11 horror guarantees 2 warp charges each. The new Heralds Anarchic demon foramtion looks crazy for generating warp charges as well.

>>50566767
ah yes, i forgot the Warherd Sorcerer.

>>50566746
>>50566733
one of you is not the one i was talking to..
Changeling?

>>50566792
Probably nothing. Maybe a combi-melta or meltabombs. Five MEQ's are just too easy to blast off the table if they ever actually threaten something. I'd probably rather have some ObSec Infiltrating CSM to be honest.

Do you own any other armor?

>>50566425
Then JUST. DO IT.

I play TS with a 16-man rubric block than everyone on here told me is a fucktarded idea. but I have the models and I'm not leaving them in my display cabinet, not after waiting so many years to play them better. Now I got oodles of rules and an official TS badge so fuck that noise.

I don't even play competitive anyway. My 2 most frequent players are a fluffy BT players who refuses to use things like Centurions and Grav because "That's not BT" and a fluffy Ork player who thinks Gorkanauts are the raddest shit. And I love them both.

Holy shit. I love the GSC models, but they are so detailed and intricate, and I need to paint so damned many of them.

It still looks exactly the fucking same.
