Cawl is Magos^2 with more personal power and more buffing. Greyfax is cheapish lvl2 psyker.. which is bad since Coteaz is already that and has hellovagood special rules.

How well would a Nurgle Daemonic Incursion work?

My thoughts are the Nurglings can infiltrate to tag as many objectives as possible early on and force my opponent to split up to go after them. Furies because I have to have the aux choice. They basically just tag objectives and distract. Then the big boys can go after the weakest links.

Everyone rolls on Biomancy probably. Maybe the princes on Plague since they can get Stream of Corruption and Plague Wind in range easily enough.

>>51074069
I know, I was casting about for an image of a resurrected Sigmar-style Emperor and I figured that was pretty close.

I just finished reading Pharos and it seemed more the Lion fucking off the other two by being secretive as shit all the time, but nothing too major compared to the other Primarchs. Sanguinius and Guilliman actually seem to have a functional fraternal relationship going despite Sanguinius being butthurt about having to be a figurehead.

They actually seem to form a reasonably functional triumvirate.

>>51073846
Man, how much would it piss off Erebus and Lorgar if Abaddon manages to actually kill the Emperor, but by the faith of the Imperium this causes him to be reborn as a literal god in the Warp.

I'd try to include some Plague Drones somehow. Maybe going MSU on the Tallyband, and taking a CAD?

>>51073911
Once he's back under the Chaos god's influence Nurgle will fix it.

I need help naming a list. Should I call it Geneblower or Leafstealer? Also, I'm wondering if it would be worth shuffling points around to replace the second Demo Claw with an Emperor's Blade Assault Company for dem melta/plasmavets, or Emperor's Wrath for artillery. If I did that, I might just make the Russes "basic" Eradicators instead.

Total: 1850

Warlord tank rolls on Strategic, hopefully getting Master of Deception (so he can outflank, and I can give some Democlaw Acolytes Shrouded) or Conqueror of Cities. Night Fight is nice too.

The Acolytes took regular Goliaths as they're open-topped, allowing for assault after disembark. The Goliaths can infiltrate, and their TL Autocannons have Tank Hunters.

The Chimeras infiltrate and are Mining Laser bunkers. Rockgrinders start on-table though some of them might Reserve.
Most everything else can Outflank.

Where's the new formations? Anyone have them?

anyone have any alpha legion tips?

I honestly dislike the idea of Orks with looted vehicles, since Orks are very prone to "improving" them beyond recognition. Ork vehicles should just be far more customizable, with more chassis variance and options for Looted Gubbinz that can radically alter the vehicle but with risky drawbacks.

So rather than Orks looting a Hammerhead, they could take a Battlewagon with Rokkit Boostas and a "Big Smasha" (A discount railgun, that for each time you fire, you must roll above the number of times you've fired it or it blows up!), etc.

>>51074810
well that's just plain stupid

>>51074823
Probably not the actual space Marines, but they've infiltrated human society in general, and humans hand space Marines their orders.

Did Belisarius Cawl really die already? I was hoping he'd be a more important character.

>>51074810
>The same way they explain it to the imperial guard they're currently allies of convenience with.

This is justified by the Imperial Guard being hypnotised 'Brood Bothers'; they're part of the cult, they just aren't hybrids. Arguably Orks and Tau should be Allies of Convenience as well; Eldar and Marines are probably too insular and strong-willed for a Cult to be able to mind control them in any numbers.

>>51074600

WAT?

>>51075044
Notable History:
778.M41 - Achilus Crusade: The crusade reclaims the Archon Sector, the 1st Archon Defenders Regiment is formed.

779.M41 - Ultramarine successor chapter, the Knights Eternal, claim Archon III as their primary recruitment world and rename themselves the Sons of Archon. Veterans of the 1st Archon Defenders are chosen as potential candidates for the chapter.

812.M41 - Battle of Archon II: Necrons awaken beneath the deserts of Archon II and begin a war against the planet's inhabitants. The 1st, 3rd and 8th Archon Defenders regiments, along with the 1st Company of the Sons of Archon, arriving on the planet to fight the Necrons. The size of the Necron force was underestimated and half of the 1st Archon Defenders, as well as the entirety of the 3rd and 8th Archon Defenders and 3/4ths of the Sons of Archon 1st Company are loss. The imperial forces retreat from the planet and Chapter Master Mathias Caine of the Sons of Archon issues an Exterminatus. Survivors of the Sons of Archon 1st Company paint their helmets black to signify their loss in their first major battle.

>>51075071
897.M41 - Siege of Archon V: When the Imperium reclaimed the Archon Sector, they also discovered the long dormant forge world of Archon V. Having been maintained and operated since 779.M41, the Forge World of Archon V is home to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th Archon's Wrath tank regiments. The Archon patterned Leman Russ is more sturdy than other patterns, but sacrifices speed and mobility for its increased survivability. The most common variant of the Archon pattern Leman Russ is the Leman Russ Eradicator, while the Archon pattern also comes in the Vanquisher and Battle Tank variants. Besides the Archon pattern Leman Russ, the forge world only produces one more vehicle. The Archon pattern Chimera Armoured Transport. Like the Archon pattern Leman Russ, the Archon pattern Chimera sacrifices speed and mobility for thicker armour.

At the start of 897.M41, an Ork WAAAGH!, known as WAAAGH! Krakaz, began to lay siege to Archon V in an attempt to loot it of its weapons and vehicles. Alongside the Archon's Wrath tank regiments, the 1st Archon Defenders answered the call to halt the siege. In a rare strategy for the regiment, they began using boarding and raiding tactics. While still in orbit above Archon V, the most hardened veterans of the 1st Archon Defenders were sent in raiding craft to board the ork ships and sabotage their inner workings. While this happened, the rest of the regiment began to make landfall to aid in the defense of Archon V.

The Warboss Krakaz Mostdakka's siege on Archon V became known as the longest battle in the Archon System's history, lasting until 923.M41. The siege was only broken after 1st Archon Defenders raiding parties disabled Krakaz's personal ship. His WAAAGH! left the system, but not before swearing to return again for revenge. The 1st Archon Ork Hunters regiment was formed to prepare for that day.

>>51075044
>>51075071
>>51075090
999.M41 - The 13th Black Crusade: The 1st Archon Defenders Regiment, lead by High Commander Carmine Titanius and Lord Commissar Mathias Caine, along with the 1st, 2nd and 3rd companies of the Sons of Archon, the 4th Archon's Wrath tank regiment and the 1st Archon's Claws Siege Company, make their way to the Cadian Gate through the Jericho-Maw warp gate, in an attempt to get to the Cadian Gate to aid in its defense and prevent the Chaos forces from pouring through.

Only War Regimental Rules:
CHARACTERISTIC MODIFIERS: +3 Agility, +3 Ballistic Skill, -3 Perception, +3 Willpower
STARTING APTITUDES: Ballistic Skill
STARTING SKILLS: Common Lore (Imperial Creed), Common Lore (Imperium), Linguistics (Low Gothic), Common Lore (Imperial Guard), Common Lore (War), Operate (Surface)
STARTING TALENTS: Rapid Reload, Deadeye Shot
BLESSED IGNORANCE: Imperial citizens know that the proper ways of living are those tried and tested by generations that have gone before. Horror, pain and death are the just rewards of curiosity, for those that look too deeply into the mysteries of the univers are all too likely to find malefic beings looking back at them. Their wise blindness imposes a -5 penalty on all Forbidden Lore (Int) Tests.
KILL THE MUTANT: The general citizens of the Imperium are trained from birth to fear mutation, for it heralds the taint of Chaos. All Imperial world characters start with Hatred (Mutants).
WOUNDS: Characters from this regiment generate starting Wounds normally.
STANDARD REGIMENTAL KIT: 1 Common M36 lasgun and 6 charge packs, 1 suit of Imperial Guard flak armour, 3 frag grenades, 3 krak grenades, 3 smoke grenades, 1 auspex, 1 uniform, 1 set of poor weather gear, 1 Laspistol and 4 Charge Packs, 1 Knife, 1 rucksack, 1 set of basic tools, 1 mess kit, 1 water canteen, 1 blanket and 1 sleeping bag, 1 rechargeable lamp pack, 1 grooming kit, 1 set of Common tags, 1 imperial infantryman's uplifting primer and 4 weeks' supply of combat sustenance rations.
SQUAD VEHICLE: 1 Chimera Armoured Transport per squad.

The Imperial Guard is so large that it's not ucommon for regiments to not be deployed for decades at a time.

You're telling orks that they can have literally any vehicle in the game with all weapons having +1 attack. There's plenty of fun to be had in that alone.

>>51075205
Noted. Right now my only army is my 1st Archon Defenders. I'm at just under 100 models right now, aiming to bring the army up to the full 5600 models. I also plan on buying models to assemble the full Sons of Archon chapter.

I earn $1200 a month, and only have to pay $300 for rent, internet, TV, phone and utilities, plus another $200 for groceries. So I'm left with $700 a month in free spending.

>>51075120
>>51075175
Marines can recruit vets, it just typically has a terrible success rate, even compared to normal. I think Leman Russ had some of his viking bros end up volunteering, even though they were all old, but it goes from those 1 in 1000 odds you get from standard recruits to like 1 in 10000 or worse.

>>51075120
Yeah, once you hit puberty you're too old for astartes recruitment.

They managed to make small numbers of adult men into psuedo-marines during the Great Crusade so various Primarchs could keep some of their pre-contact followers, but it wasn't the full marine augmentation, just an increase in strength and size to be roughly in line with legio standards.

To my knowledge only the Emprah knew how to do that and he ain't telling anyone these days.

I want to know just how impossible to field Bellarius Cawl is going to be, god dammit. Give me muh leaks already.

I also really want a decent Black Templars Only formation but that probably won't happen in this book.

As some other anon pointed out, geneseed implantation doesn't work past a certain age (~16-17).
Maybe change some of the events to deplyoments in other segments; right now that's a lot of things to happen to a single system.

Two wars in a single system is a lot? Three if you count the reclaiming of the system itself.

There's been like...3 wars in the home system of the Ravenguard in a span of even less time. The war against the nids. The war against chaos. The inquisition's investigation and all out war. And that's just including the stuff that happened in the Dawn of War 2 games.

>>51076049
Neither of them got true astartes upgrades. The Emperor suped them up with gene-fuckery so they could take part in the crusade but they didn't receive geneseed and get all the organs and shit.

Same with the Lion's knights.

>>51076113
Both of them got imperfect transformation due to them being too old for a true geneseed transformation, which lead to their resentment of their primarchs.
It's actually a plotpoint for both characters.

Isnt a space marine, he just has enough gene enhancements to wear power armor but otherwise he's an old man

>>51076263
Kinda pointless to implant corpses, no?

>>51076225
Well, there's two reasons it does.
1. It's a Chapter system (The Sons of Archon)
2. It's in the Jericho Reach, a section of the Ultima Segmentum that has heavy Necron, Tau, Tyranid, Chaos and Ork presences. The Archilus Crusade was only able to enter the Jericho Reach through the Jericho-Maw Warp Gate that connects Segmentum Obscurus and the Jericho Reach sector of Ultima Segmentum. There's literally a crusade in that region of space right now that's trying to reclaim worlds for the Imperium. I have yet to ear of a planet in the Jericho Reach that isn't touched by war. There's a good reason why the Jericho Reach is the default setting for the Death Watch RPG books. I specifically picked the region for the unusual number of conflicts that happens within it and for the fact that the majority of the Jericho Reach is still under the control of Chaos Forces.

>>51076263
Angron was a failure.

The Emperor had to do extensive surgical work just to slow Angron's deterioration, why would he go to the effort of enhancing a bunch of savage, mentally mutilated slaves for him?

Attempting to build an EC army, what's the best, deadliest way to equip a Kakophoni detachment? Does the Lord get fully kitted out for melee with Blissgiver and joined to a melee Noise Marine squad, or does one keep it cheap and just sit him in a ranged squad with the Bolts of Ecstatic Vexation? Perhaps field him on a Steed to outflank a Noise Marine squad with blasters alongside him?
Auxiliary will probably be either the Heldrake or Forgefiend formations, but the Raptor Talon is looking good too, especially with a MoS Lord.

>>51074120
Move some of those HQ points over to a Soul Grinder formation so you have ranged offence.

The Blastmaster is the real bomb, and if you have a 10 man unit, you can take two. Are you planning to max out the Kakophoni formation?

Why the fuck are these so cheap?
90 points for av 12 12 10, 3 hp 4 str 10 ap 2 attacks base, can buy extra attacks and flamer weapon. If it dies you only lost 90-110 points or so you spent on upgrades
Seriously? I mean ork heavy support should only really have Mek Guns in it so why the fuck do i rarely see people use these if heavy support isnt even that crowded in terms of useful units?? You cant throw 10 krak grenades at it anymore so it wont instantly die in CC to space marines or guardsmen, yet no one has noticed this.
Only downside i see its I2 but this is offset by av 12 and bs2 but why would you be shooting with a melee dread

Noise Marines get a lot of benefit out of 10 man squads. 2 blastmasters is amazing, and the extra efficiency for icons is always nice.

Another thing to consider is that Noise marines can be decent as a melee unit if you give them CC weapons instead of bolters, though that's better off in case you need a cheap squad to help fill formations.

>>51077149
Because it can't shoot for shit, walks slowly, dies to a moderate application of gun and it's flamer just makes it make it harder to reach with the charge.

But mainly, it competes with Mek Guns.

So I was reading about the crimson path thing that abby plans to use, and I'm a bit confused about something.
As of WoM, the daemon primarchs are already out in realspace. Yet the crimson path says that the end goal is to expand the EoT so that even the most powerful beings like the daemon primarchs can leave. But if magnus can open a hold that allows that, then whats the point of the path? Why doesn't abby just get magnus to sacrafice another planet to allow all the traitor legions and renegades out?

>Spending centuries in the outskirt slums of Commorragh, Archon Andrhea Mastris staved off the hunger by making herself useful, innovating and creating new and better tools, contraptions, and drugs to elicit more powerful and intense sensations of both agony and bliss. Eventually, she rose to power, gaining her own Kabal, the Kabal of the Corrupted Life. Her organization came to be known for the quality of her instruments, and it wasn't long before she caught the attention of Aestra Khromys, Mistress of the Order of the Obsidian Rose. Rather than enter into a potentially bloody gang war, Andrhea suggested a business partnership, and for now, she works as a lieutenant under her, leading her own raids in her mistress' name. On the streets of Commorragh, the Corrupted Life is now synonymous with highs thought lost since the Fall, but in realspace, very few worlds that have felt the touch of her gleaming, armored foot have ever been the same, for despite all her beauty, the yellow sails of her raiders spell certain, painful doom for her victims - after all, she needs SOMEONE to be her guinea pigs...

The low BS is off set by taking dual Skorchas.

But in general, Deff Dreads compete with Mek Guns, Lootas and the Battle Wagon.

Ork Heavy Support is extremely crowded.

Ideally, the Deff Dreads and Killa Kans need to be moved elsewhere, like Troops where they aren't competing with things.

They're effectively cheap, armoed cannon-fodder in the lore anyway.

3 Tanks done at the moment: "Skullcog, Clawcog, Ocog"

Each model has a transfer identifying it's callsign/squad, allowing me to tell who is doing what and how many on even the most crowded of tabletops.

Depends on what your needs for Synapse and anti-tank are like.

>>51078297
Hum, was about to suggest Mentors.

hey guys i hope someone can help me. i just bought some necron units built them and played them. they are fucking boring i dont like them at all i started to look around which army i could play instead i need some help which one to choose. i would prefer a 40 % shooty and 60 % close combat army i would love to play a imperial knight and like the idea of imperial fists malevolent and especially deathwatch what should i choose can someone give me a direction?

>>51078297
By the way the current timeline is advancing is anything to go by, Necrons apparently.

Fuckloads of super thin white wash layer over a blue base by the look of it.

Well, my two troops at the moment are Synapse so I'm thinking I'm going to need more in the line of anti tank and anti MEQ.

>>51078357
Gets asked a lot, but sure. Use this lineup of paints for the body of the plasma gun. Except instead of layering up to white on the corners of the plasma gun, layer up to white in a huge radius around the coils.

The edge highlight is layering up Teclis Blue > Lothern > Baharoth > white scar on vertices only.

>>51075369
But orks are meant to be high risk high reward.

>>51078413
That Apothecary is illegal.

>>51078227
this

>>51078103

your camo isn't varied enough

>>51075369
The reason Orks suck is because their random is ~60% chance to be bad, ~20% chance to be mediocre and ~20% chance to be as good as good armies are constantly with no effort.

>>51078050
Poor sharpness and noisy as all fuck, get some light on there so your poor camera doesn't have to run the ISO at neurotic levels and we might be able to see what you've done.

And while I guess you get points for having a backdrop, try to position the backdrop behind the model instead of off to the side.

>>51078480
kill teams doesn't give you more access to weapons

unless it's specifically heralds of ruin

but in the space marine book you can't give plasma guns to apos

>>51078446
Lel, not according to the FAQ, or in Heralds of Ruin which is what I use this Apothecary for.

Apothecary: 55
> Plasma Gun
> Grenade Launcher
> Smoke Grenades

>>51078480
Still illegal. Apothecaries cannot take any upgrades.

>>51075369

>army wide FNP and fearless for no points

t. faggot

Traitor Legions book is amazing.

Even when the codex was "bad" it still had degenerate shit like double heldrake + khorne chaos lord on a juggernaut joining a unit of spawn.

Just because the whole codex isn't good doesn't mean the army sucks.

Even codex space marines have bad units or bad lists.

Hell even eldar which is "the most op broken shit in the game" have tons of units which are just ass

So by your thoughts "WHY ISN'T CODEX ELDAR AMAZING???" WAAAAAA MY FOOTDAR LISTS WITH STRIKING SCORPIONS ARE LOW TIER
ELDAR ARE SO BAD GUISE

>>51078516
Yeah I meant HoR

>>51078528
They can take Plasma Pistols for 10pts and you can roll them for a relic weapon in some campaigns which can easily be plasma based

>>51073779
8/10 pasta and general

>>51078526
GW stated that part of the FAQ was a misprint, and that you can't give the Apothecaries upgrades not regularly available to them.

>>51078582
True enough, just letting you know that the Apothecary section of the FAQ was declared incorrect.

>>51078565
You picked a bad example for trying to pick out a bad Eldar unit. Infiltrating with shrouded so you can charge, and 3+ armor once there while you chew through infantry at good initiative.

Outside of maybe Storm Guardians or Shining spears, I struggle to think of any bad Eldar units. And even those are quite nice compared to other assault troops or assault bikes that some other armies have to deal with.

>>51078630
And where's your picture proving it buddy? I've been taking apothecaries with plasma guns for years. I'm not going to stop anytime soon.

>>51075369
The problem is Orks are high risk, low reward. If anything, their tech should be similar to how Skaven worked in pre-AOS days: Hideously powerful for low prices but just as dangerous to them as to the enemy.

Suggest me some "good" novels to read.

>>51077149
Initiative 2.

Consider that Space Marines can buy a Dreadnought for 100 points with WS 4, 4 attacks base, I4 and a Multimelta. Plus they can take them in squadrons, and if taken in a Battle Demi-Company they gain Objective Secured.

>>51078630
>True enough, just letting you know that the Apothecary section of the FAQ was declared incorrect.
I'm talking about HoR though

>>51078703
Down Amongst the Dead Men is a nice short story. It will last maybe one cup of coffee.

Copy/pasting this from their facebook page, since it was uploded as a comment by Warhammer 40,000, the official Games Workshop Facebook page:
>"Hey Folks, Whoops, we got one wrong there. For the last question on this page, the answer should be 'No'.

>Please refrain from cutting all the arms off your Apothecaries, they need them for their nartheciums.

>Q: Is it possible for an Apothecary to carry items from the Special Weapons and/or Melee Weapons lists (e.g. by a Veteran purchasing upgrades, and being subsequently upgraded to an Apothecary)? A: No."

>>51078752
I know, I'm just providing a citation for anyone else who hasn't seen it or disbelieves it such as >>51078665

>>51078703
The Spinward Fringe Broadcasts. They're written in the distinctive style of "radio plays", and as a result are absolutely god-tier if you buy the Kindle format... Which comes with an audiobook mode that can be listened to while you drive.

>>51078677

To me, their weapons effects on the table are not wonky enough.

Things like the Shokk Attack Guns causing vehicles to deviate (scatter die) and lose a Hull Point and a turn of action because a warp maddened Grot was teleported inside would be appropriate.

the theory I prefer is that the candle is just for lighting since the eye is somehow advanced archaeotech but they forgot to put a light in or had some retarded reason not to like religion. she uses the candle to see things up close with her super eye in the dark

this doesn't really explain why she has it lit in battle tho. fuck I just don't know.

>>51078857
2 Heavy Flamers is for Chaos ones though. I'm not a fan of that though as a Chaos player. I just run them "base" because I don't have enough Autohavocs, and I wanted to run a Word Bearers Grand Host + Helcult.

2k points salamanders.

Emperors children question:
Is it better to run the kakophananana or a warband as core?
Also, big blobs of marines foot slogging it with fnp or rhino rush?

Well, Space Marine shooting and close combat isn't bad so there wouldn't be a bad start.

>>51073779
So I just tried to order my first set of 40k miniatures and it seems that I can't get it delivered to me unless I'm in the EU.

I don't live anywhere near a GW store so I have no other way to get anything. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

>>51079284
Either can work, depending on how heavily you want to lean on noise marines. You'll probably want rhinos regardless though, as feel no pain won't save you from strength 8 blasts.

>>51079308
There is a "rest of the world" option, there are very few countries that can't get delivered shit, were are you from? Antarctica?

>>51079395

Bump. How is this list for a 'build up to 1500' sort of thing? I do wanna run some Infiltrators or Ruststalkers eventually. I like the outflanking of the sydonians since that really helps them do their job while the Ballistarii has some space to get a few shots at side armor before the the dragoons race off.
