>>51195497

>>51195482
How is it illegal? The compulsories are 1 of chaos warband or plague colony
>>51195467
Only way you can get a sorcerer to T6 with 3 saves is MoN and a bike. The primaris power is worth taking alone, grants one enemy model Gets Hot, so it makes an enemy riptide or wraithknight commit suicide. Forced to go psyker level 3 to have the best chances of getting it off, and having a spell familiar for 15 points is just damn swell.

as far as camo goes? Tempestus go as tempestus must, if they're on the inquisition's payroll, they can afford two sets of clothes, so probably black if they're assisting the inquisition. If you wanted less lorefaggy ideas, grey, probably, great neutral colour.

>>51195421

Speaking of Grot Tanks, is it better to field those with the Grot Mega Tank or the Mek Boy Junka?

>>51195467
bikes gives you extra +1 Toughness on top of the +1 T reroll FnP and shrouded DG get.

Its just a very Unfluffy way of making your HQ units even harder to kill.

Its also a great way to differentiate DG players who play the legion for its lore and the ones who play it for the rules and they think their lore is "alright".

Still there are MUCH meaner comps in the game right now. and people who call others "waac" just for fielding with DG rules are prissy manlets. But latter applies to more than just DG, just because someone likes the aethestics of Craftworlds-Eldar doesnt mean theyre intentionally being a powergaming sore-winner/loser.

I will be eternally grateful to IA and FoC for showing us, once and for all, that Inquisition "players" and Sisterfags are a bunch of powergaming fucknuggets.

I've been wanting to build an Inquisitorial warband for a while and have been stuck debating options.

BS3 Carapace Bolter Henchmen with 3 specials in a Chimera
Or
BS4 Carapace Bolter Henchmen with 2 special weapons in a Taurox Prime.

Both squads are MSU sized and Carapace is honestly only three because I want to use the Scion models.

The hidden plus side for Scions is that I can run them in a Castellan and buff them with some Guard toys inside the same FOC. Flip side is I can do that with C:AI and formations too.

Thoughts?

Only take actual henchmen for flamer and bolter luggers. Don't give them any armor or upgrades, they're going to die anyways.

Scions for everything else.

>>51195834
I think you're better off using the Scion rules over Acolytes, use henchmen for stuff you cant get elsewhere like Crusaders/priests/death cultists, plus with the Castellan you could add a Scion command squad and use their orders to boost them more.

>>51195815

That's comforting, then. When I can buy her alone, she'll push me over the 2200 mark if I use everything. However, I do have a Knight that I have yet to put together, which might be a little crazy with IWND from her.

The helmet, back-spikes, and segmented plates (esp. at the hips) are distinctly dark eldar. The shoulders themselves are definitely closer to the autarch you posted (the mini one, at least).

it basically hasn't changed at all. The flayed skull kabal were the red armored dudes with silver helmets from 3e. All they did was swap the silver for bone. The rest is just having models that aren't garbage.

The ones who changed heavily (colour wise) were the black heart.

Without nitpicking, it looks good. The silver looks a little thick, though. I get that problem, too.

You could. I'd experiment, though. If you do, you'll want to put another thing layer up.

Basically what I did here was paint the base layer, wash it with the flesh wash, and then put a thin layer of skin tone.

Nuln should work for deldar because they don't use normal skin tones.

It's a bit more drastic than that. The prevalence of white, for one. Also, only trueborn have the bone helmets. The regular warriors (as seen in the example kabalite art and in the tiny army shot) have red helmets.

But the biggest change, and the one I'm most referring to, and the one that relates most to the strangely armored eldar in the Cadia thing, is the addition of turquoise splashed in everywhere. - especially the vehicles and any form of cloth. Red and turquoise are the predominate theme of them. White is just a highlight.

>>51196156

Yea, that's kinda shitty, actually.

At least WK are more of a MC than Riptides in fluff.

We can assume that the entire world's production is automated using servitors, with a contingent of techpriests to keep things running smoothly

I assume they'd get bored after a while, start dicking around with genetic experiments, hybridization, etc. But imagine how much machinery would go into automating an entire planet; there would have to be some serious AdMech presence

Do you want the 2nd Justicar? If you combat squad your 2 termie squads, you can shave off 10 points right there.

Anyone here scratch built a titan before? I was posting about making an emperor class earlier but the rules are shit for it so I guess I'll make a Warlord titan. If anyone has any input that would be cool.

Looking at the FW model I think I could make something pretty similar out of conduit fittings, plasticard, some bits and maybe a hacked apart gothic church kit or something and I think it would look pretty nice.

>>51196304

Really? Most I see are grey. I knew Green was common, but I figured I'd take the green a step further and research the closest modern equivalent to the American WWII "Olive Drab". The tanks are my spess Shermans after all! But still, I see your point.

The fact that it's monocolor why I don't use regular chimeras; I use bits and accessories to make them "mine" and convert anything that doesn't have a WWII equivalent into something at least evocative of a period vehicle. (Such as an LVT-A)

But these are all justifications and excuses. The real difference between my regiment and any other is the removable hull-point tokens in the rear of the vehicle. Balancing dice is for nerds!

So I'm really new to 40k. I went out and got my self paints and a primer for a set of IG cadians, just the $10 box of like 5. I've been using Duncan as a reference for how to paint them.
Where should I start lore wise? With the IG codex? Any books I need to read? Is there a good starting point to understand what the hell is going on?

Pirate the rulebook, read the background, it's really fucking good. Pick a faction that interests you and pirate the codex.

Don't start selling kidneys to geedubs before you know what you want. Once you are sure, grab a codex. Most clubs don't mind pirated rulebooks but people will hate you for not having hardprinted codexes.

I haven't brought a started set for a while but I remember the Battle for Macragge set came with a rulebook minus the fluff and they got sold for 20 bucks on ebay, if they still include those you could look into that.

Tabletop quality.

Thin down the metalics slightly from now on, and get another color on the rifle's bullet/things in the rotory magazine. Normally I recommend brass, but you might want to try blue for more contrasting detail.

Take some sand paper to your base's sides, so it doesn't look so messy. Ideally the terrain should stop right at the edge and not flow over it. Then, to distinguish one squad from another during gameplay (If two squads of the same type take losses while near each other you might lose track of which model belongs to which squad.) I recommend different bands around the base sides. Orange for one squad, blue for another, brown, cream, silver, black.

The best base point for lore is the BRB that you should pirate from the sticky.

Supa Kannon is from IA:8. It's Primary Weapon 1 instead of Ordnance.

Okay. You want the IG Codex for sure. You can also check out the series about the Guant's Ghosts, The Last Chancers, and of course CIAPHAS CAIN: BASTION OF GOOD WRITING! and if your a treadhead go ahead and try the Baneblade series because its free in the Mega link.

Here's how you do Imperial Guard:

Build a 500 points list.
Buy 500 points of models.
Paint the models.
Play the models.
Build a 1000 points list.
Buy 500 more points of models.
...and so on. This will limit your spending to how quickly you can paint. By tying the expansion of your army to your work ethic you prevent yourself from blowing too much cash on any army. So if your not liking the game style, you can back out early and try again without loosing 3 paychecks' worth of money.

There are like 2 million Cadians left. Not a big enough genetic pool for a stable population. Expect a lot of inbreeding. But realistically with no planet of their own, the wider population of the Imperium are going fuck/breed the Cadians out of existence.

Best would be guardsmen. Scions have an order for rerolling, but IG has the relic that gives Preferred Enemy (more rerolling) to all squads within 6". You can also take an ammo dump with a fortification, which allows you to reroll 1's.

Why the hell is that number so small? There are almost x2 more Chinese people in China today in 2017 than there were Cadians over their entire planet, in all of their fortresses, a garrison tempered and tested by 12 black crusades before it and untold chaos incursions. They knew what they must defend against, yet they couldn't even breech 1 billion in a planet where every man and woman is a trained soldier?

It's bad enough Cadians fight 90% of the battles for the IG, but with this fluff, there's no way for their homeworld to sustain any part of that.

Is it explicit that thats the entirety of the Cadian forces? Because those 850 million could be the garrison of the last city that is making the last stand.

>>51196902
GW and the number anon.

I mean, sometime the force involved in a entire Crusade are numerically less important than some Soviet Front during WW2.

>>51196902
>Why the hell is that number so small?

Because most of them died? The book has the Cadians fighting on the last fortress in the planet with Chaos overruning everywhere else.

Wait so is there any way Cadia will be saved or...?

What's gonna happen to the IG now that 90% of it is fucked?

>>51196974
maybe they will finally replace the 15 year old cadian kit

>>51196731
you can carry 2 special weapons per squad without increasing squad size (so 2/5 guns are plasma) and the command squad can be all plasma. take a cad, load it up, and put missile launchers on all the trucks. it's not an amazing list, but it's not bad either.

>>51196974
I'd suggest going and reading more fluff so you understand the setting a little better.

>>51196902
GW hasn't learned to add three zeros behind all their numbers for population yet.

That or the other 75% of the Cadian Genepool are dying elsewhere in the galaxy.

>>51196920
And they can't settle a new planet why? They are still well past the minimum to prevent inbreeding mutations and with the Eye expanding it's not like staying close enough to maintain their violet irises is a problem.

>>51196974
cadia is not 90% of the IG. and even if Cadia is fucked, the surviving regiments, and the surviving IG, will fight on. As they've always done, and they will keep doing.

You are mistaken. Cadians fight 90% of the battles of the IG. However, they make up less than 0.001% of the entire IG. With their homeworld gone, GW could perhaps start showcasing one of the literally millions of other guardsmen regiments.

But they won't. It'll be the same 7 doing 99.9999% of the battles, and Cadians will still be doing 90% of it themselves, with whatever new fluff follows this.

>>51197019
Eldar on a Tombworld?

>>51196902

They could have evacuated the planet at the first signs of the Crusade or as cities fell gradually.

>>51197065
they'll just replace cadia with some other world that uses the same armor as cadia, since its pretty mass produced

>>51196920
By that logic, shouldn't the Jewish Diaspora disappeared by now? Not to bring in politics, but Jews typically spent most of the past 10 or so centuries scattered among populations of non-jewish countries. So apparently small ethnic groups can survive among larger host groups without being "bred out of existence".

>>51197012
Guardsmen come in all shapes and sizes (but only if you don't have boobs, no boobs allowed, too hard to model)

>>51197095
The 850 million figure was given long before Fall of Cadia went to print. Fall of Cadia only reaffirmed it.

>>51197012
>This number date back from a few years. CSM codex 3rd ed, according to lexicanum

The the 850 million is probably the remaining Cadians that have garrisoned in the last Kasr that hasnt fallen to Chaos.

>>51197111
Jews have strict breeding laws and they breed within each other ( lot of inbreeding). You aren't considered a Jew unless you mother is one.

The Cadians and Imperials don't have laws or religious teachings about racial breeding.

>>51197124
Boobs are hidden under flak, long hair is too easy for any enemy to grab and use against you.

Basically you could have an all female regiment and other than wider hips there would be no easy way to notice at a distance.

>>51197141
Why are you quoting the part that is refuting your guess?

>>51195402

>Kans

Kans are bad in general. If you're determined to use them, put Grotzookas on them. Despite their BS3, Rokkits are a poor choice for them, and Big Shootas are laughable.

>Dreads

3 Klaws and 1 Skorcha is the way to use them. Don't expect a huge amount from them; they typically won't make it across the board, and even if they do, >I2

>Boyz

why.jpg. Boyz are bad choices at the best of times. I figure you'll be shoving them in the Wagons, but they really won't achieve anything that Grots won't.

>Wagons

Red Paint Job is utterly pointless. Never take it. Ram is mandatory. Honestly I tend to run them with a Killkannon when I take them at all, and just run them as a suicide unit that puts out 1, maybe 2 pie-plates before exploding.

>Mek and Boyz on Bikes

These are solid choices, and I suspect your plan is to run them just behind the Kan wall giving cover to your Walkers. The trouble is the limitations of the KFF; ever since the new codex nerfed it down to models, not units, within 6", KFFs have gotten much worse. Coupled to that is the fact that you can often expect to meet high strength, low AP templates nowdays, so bunching up your walkers becomes a suicidal tactic against some armies.

>Mek Gunz

These are always a great choice. I do rate Lobbas quite highly; they're versatile, cheap and effective. I'd squeeze in some Kustom Mega Kannons personally for ranged Ap2, and even some plain Kannons for ranged Ap3.

>>51197141
It would be a logical explaination to such a low number, but as stated GW pretty sux a giving credible number given the scale of universe (as said, crusades fighting over multiple planetary systems with only MILLIONS of guardmen), so I guess it's the total planetary minus the regiment fighting off world. Which realistically should'nt be that numerous given how hot is the Eye of Terror warzone.

>>51197158
It'd take hundreds, if not thousands, of years to completely integrate populations to where you couldn't distinguish them from each other.

850 million is the number given of Cadia's garrison before the 13th Black Crusade - not most of the way through it. And only 71.75% of that 850M were soldiers.

f you count the RPGs as canon, as some anons are wont to do, than the IG, like Sisters, has boobplate.

Just to give them some use with a transport that isn't AV10.

Despite their issues, I notice they can do pretty well if you can actually get them where they need to be.

No, they're supposed to explode.

So I just found out theres a new Primarchs novel about Magnus just released. Do we know what its about yet?

Im hoping its to fix all the continuity fuck ups and give a 'correct' representation of Magnus's warning and the Emperors response either sending Russ or Horus changing the orders.

I know it wont though.

>>51197274
I'll admit that's probably what will happen. Fucking plastic crack.

He's old as balls, he probably has hearing problems.

so, looking at the castellan formation, the henchmen warband HAS to be from the inquisition book. if i take the coteaz from the Imperial Agents book for ObSec, can he still start in a dedicated transport with the henchman warband from the inquisition book?

>>51197230
No, the only thing they've got going for them is how cheap they are.

Just take lots of 10 man shoota squads, no special weapons or transports, take a nob but don't give him anything more than maybe a big choppa.

Run them in front of your walkers as a meat wall, use them to eat overwatch and then sit the last few remaining guys on an objective.

They are both part of the same faction, so yes, they should be.

On a side note, what you (and so many others) forget about the inquisitorial henchmen unit is that it only exists in the inquisition book. IA doesn't have a henchmen unit - it has an acolyte unit (and acolytes only) and a henchmen formation that combines acolytes with the units that made up the I codex henchmen unit.

For some reason, I constantly see people claiming you can take the I codex henchmen unit in place of the acolyte unit in the IA henchmen formation. You can't. Similarly here, the henchmen unit isn't "HAS to be from the inquisition book"; it only EXISTS in the inquisition book.

After I'm done with my Space Sherman army I might do a penal legion built around plasma. Thinking orange uniforms and stripes on tanks, everyone gets plasma, commissars represented by Ogryn (Because toughest, bravest, angriest and stupidest prisoners are naturally promoted!)

Basically take all of these >>51197015

Lore: We gave the penal legion all our plasma and sent them ahead. My old space sherman army walks a few miles behind them and salvages the dropped plasma weapons from the burning corpses, techpriests repair the gutted tanks, and we give the 'refurbished' weapons to the next penal legion.
