Finally proper edition.

Reminder that the Night Lords theme song has been found at long last
https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=IUGzY-ihqWc&feature=share

FAQ:
>Dubstep is gay lol?
Dubstep suits many chaotic factions as it is fairly chaotic
Also this song is hardly Dubstep

>I listened to three seconds and I thought it was shit?
No, you are shit. Try lasting longer than you do in bed next time, before giving a review

>If this music isn't to my personal taste, does that mean it is the wrong song for the Night Lords?
No

>ITS NOT METAL I CAN SHAKE MY NECKBEARD TO????
Metal music is lame, this isn't the 80s. The Night Lords have evolved a lot in the last 8-10 years, so get on board or fuck off. Metal only really suits World Eaters, even then, probably Hardcore.

>My Emps Children love the shit metal though!!!
No, your structured music would bore them to death. Please read current fluff, not your 80s shit

>LOL LOOK MY SHIT SONG ABOUT BATS OR LIGHTNING IS FUNNY
*Pat pat* nice original joke, friend

OK, you're snapshooting, so BS1, then he imposes +1 to that so 7+. Even if you manage to hit on a 6, you have to shoot 18 markerlights at him just to get your BS back to 3, then another 6 per missile you want to launch. And he shoots 24" Assault 2d6 S:D novas without needing line of sight and with Ignore Cover.

Have a better set of songs, which better represent music with an Operatic Tenor who can actually stay on fucking tune. Which is supported by a trio of other operatic tenors who supplement Hansi's singing with polyphony.

Orks. You get to be the Comic-relief race that everyone loves to play as and against, purely for the hilarious bullshit you do.

This comes however at a cost. You will never win any of your games, and you will eventually fall into a soul crushing depression that will cause you to leave the hobby forever and distance yourself from everyone. No ork player stays forever..

>>51548053

Just stay away from Tau and Eldar.

Orks and Tyranids are weak and have a lot of models to kill which is fun for the opponent but you'll be attracting people who want to rape you and turning away people who want fair games.

Just pick whatever you like and don't make a retardedly strong build out of it. Melee marines is a good example of something fun and fluffy.

Thanks to the Traitor Legions book, CSM are mid-tier, though they're still a bit overcosted and screwed over compared to loyalists. I still love them though. You can definitely do well with them so long as you don't face WAAC.

CSM is passable if you use Traitor Legions. Dark Eldar can be good but they're hard to use because they were never the easiest army to play due to being high speed low health, but they're even harder to play now since lethality has been increased across the board ten fold.

Just pick what you like, unless you are Orks you can make it work.

>So I assume Tau and Eldar are meta
Eldar are a Tier 0 force in the meta right now. They're leaps and bounds better than the next best lists.

Tau are NOT meta. They just have a solid codex and have some objectively good units (Riptides) that leave some players butthurt. Tournament results and numbers, however, show the opposite; Tau normally stomps low-level events and early rounds, but lose flat-out when the gloves come off and they can't even touch Eldar.

>>51548414

>markerlights hit invis on a their normal BS
Wait, what? Where is this said? Is this an FAQ thing?
Because that is most certainly not in the rules for invis or markerlights

>Do you wanna point me to the page in the BRB that talks about named models in regards to forging a narrative then?

Do you want to point me to the page in the BRB where your games were made canon? I can point you to the white dwarf where they give rules for forging a narritive using named characters. After a battle if they died they rolled on injury tables for the next fight and if they killed another character they rolled on tables to get a single battle bonus

It was WD 389 May 2012, it was a campaign about Necrons and Marines, which included 4 named Necron Characters and at least two Space Marine characters..Now shut the fuck up you stupid child.

I still fondly remember the time I went to a tournament and saw a Tau Player running just 3 Stormsurges and some markerlights. I went up against him and tabled him on turn 1 using 12 infiltrating grav-cannons, so he instantly rage-quitted the tournament in the first round.

Tau players are so fun to bully when you know what you're doing.

>read the preview page from rise of the primarch
>"Yet the greatest threat of them all is Chaos"

Justify this, guys.

>>51547962
Every one is. How dense are you motherfuckers?
This year and next year are going to be major releases for every faction of 40k. GW has said as much.
Sure, some factions (the imperium, namely space marines) will get more stuff than others, but everyone from orks to nids to gaurd to even fucking sisters are getting something.

>>51548548
Chaos is galaxy wide and the nids and crons aren't doing anything yet? Orks will ork, they aren't genocidal.

>>51547914

Tau player here.

No they don't.

You can use them to increase your BS if you're snap shooting, and you can even chain them so if one squad lands a lucky hit they can up the BS of the next squad to mathematically get more hits.

This is per the most recent, and now official, faq.

>>51548548
Because Tyranids will rape your face until you die
Chaos will rape your face until you die, then your soul will continue to be raped for all eternity.
Sounds like a bigger threat to me.

Naw, gonna be a deathwatch killteam.

Lets you see a variety of chapters working together despite rivalry, maybe see their parent chapters spergin out with their particular brand of autism.
Meet different aliens, show of the imperiums xenophobia even when united against a common foe, and then justify it later.
Orks as funny daily mooks, saturday morning crons, nids as the unstoppable foe only slowed by exterminatus

Encounter various imperial actors,
guardsmen holding the line, admech screwing the team over as much as eldar, inquisitors playing power-games with them as poawn, chaos behind the scenes.

>Tau are NOT meta

Nice try faggot. You faglords have been spewing this shit when you were 4th best army and now you're 3rd best, there is no more hiding.

>>51548548
Chaos is currently trying to kill everyone else.
There are factions that are just as dangerous as chaos, but they are either not yet poised to attack or are too busy trying to deal with chaos.

It's like USA during WW2. soviet russia is just as dangerous as the third reich to the USA, arguably more dangerous, since germany never really had a viable chance to beat the USA. But at that time, one was trying to kill everyone, the other was willing to help stop them for the time being.

Greatest threat != most dangerous.

There's a better one that someone linked here a while back, it was on reddit IIRC. It was a break down of wins, points scored and a bunch of stuff like that. Was far more indicative of what the strongest armies are than that.

>>51548729
Tragedy, ain't it?

>>51548706
No, like the eye of terror, chaos winning 40k only means a bigger rift. What happens when Chaos rips a rift into another even more universe. Like the looney tunes universe and Khorne gets his pants pulled over his head and kicked off a cliff?

>>51548663
>Tau managed to reach a 11% win rate to pass SM's 9%, so clearly this puts them on par with Eldar's 27%
Again, Tau is just a moderately good army that (unsurprisingly) can deal with outdated/underpowered codexes and manages to match up practically on-par with the other relevant factions like SM and CSM

If there were some huge divide between Tau and the armies below it on the results chart, you'd have a leg to stand on. But when we have four different codexes roughly in the same spot, you can't make that argument.

I still don't understand why people get so buttblasted over the Tau. Are you still upset over Fish of Fury? Is it Damocles?

I certainly know that feeling. One of my regular opponents is convinced excorcists are broken as fuck because I keep using them top gun down riptides and crisis teams which annoys him as it neuters his ability to alpha strike me.

I had an autistic polish guy who plays iron warriors.
He rain termi annihilation force at 1000 points as a formation detachment. His two normal squads had an autocannon each.
When he used the "shoot before movement phase" ability he shot my broadside with both squads and it lived through every single shot, so then he shot it again and it was only the last squad that shot that killed it after it had been shot 3 times before with no wounds. He called me a cheater for passing 2+ amour saves.
Never went back to that store again.

Not him, but yes it does. Assuming the stormsurges didn't take the 4++ system, 24 wounds is statistically average from 12 grav canons.

The inquisition and Ecclisiarchy will rebel against Guilliman and try to have him killed. They will be backed by the Black Templars, Dark Angels and all their successors, Minotaurs, Alpha Legion, and a whole shitload of other chapters.

The sisters of battle will, along with Saint Celestine, make a hard choice and betray the Ecclisiarchy in order to side with Guilliman. Dorn will turn out to have lead the Custodes in secret and return to mend wounds with Guilliman. A shitload of chapters will side with them, mostly the Ultramarines and almost all their successors.

On a side note, it seems the current canon Grand Master of the 3rd Brotherhood, Valdar Aurikon may die or or be replaced somehow to introduce Voldus. The codex entry describing the 3rd Brotherhood says that due to the actions that specifically the 3rd Brotherhood has taken against Chaos, their Grand Masters and Brother Captains are huge targets for Chaos.

My justification for all Primarchs except Horus coming back, some collaboration with you guys here on it:

Here we go:
Lion: In statis, can be brought back without much effort storywise

Fulgrim: Demon Primarch

Perturabo: Demon Primarch

Jaghatai Khan: Never confirmed dead

Leman Russ: in the Warp, will probably come back with a terrible wulfen style model for the "Wolf days" or whatever they call the end times of the wolves.

Dorn: Only found his hand, return of the yellow Cyborg, with his rivalry with Rowboat Girlyman incoming

Curze: Hints of his chaos taint in the Soul Hunter trilogy, (yes that was me spamming that on 4chan), he could return as a Demon Primarch. He wouldn't be the first to die, and then come back as a demon prince (looking at you Grulgor)

Sanguinius: return of his personality through the Sanguinor (his body is well destroyed)

Ferrus: Return of the "Headless Horseman" on a bike, yes plz. There is alot of ambiguity around his head in the HH series, and there was a bunch of cloning going on by Fulgrim.

Angron: Demon Primarch

Girlyman: Welp...

Mortarion: Demon Primarch

Horus: Replaced by Demon Abadon maybe

Lorgar: Demon Price well overdue to return

Vulkin: never confirmed dead

Corax: Never confirmed dead

Alparius/Omegon: Please don't make me meme.

RIP old Cypher design

Good question actually, what did happen to his body? Even under a few thousand traitors and a couple of 'thirstys he would stand out.

Still waiting for the bunny time desu

I-its pretty much exactly the same, autismo

>>51549757
Bullshit, none of it was ever confirmed. It has been inferred but M'shen's transmission cuts out and no canon source speaks of it. it is always "assumed" after

>>51549846

No it isn't, you blind fucking retard. Get bent.

>Normal, unaugmented humans
>used as genetic basis for augmenting other humans into super humans
>the base is still stronger than the literally no-longer-human mutant version
what was even the point? If normal humans can just "grow up" stronger than space marines, why even bother?

>>51549863
It is you fucking wank, stop picking on the poor cunt scared to post.

>>51549846
It's not even remotely fucking close, a-a-are you serious?

>Never been confirmed
Read the Soul Hunter Omnibus, it literally has a first hand account from Talos, who chased the assassin despite Curzes order to not (because Curze had forsight and saw his own death).
They watched him get killed, then chased the assassin.

Bruh, 100% of the lore for 40k comes from the black library.

He's just unlatched the strap and is about to draw his pistol. It makes more sense in context; >>51549772

what think of my sonnies+Daemons list. it doesn't need to be super competitive or nufin.

Vect when

>>51549933
Nah, m8, he just found them all over the fucking place. He didn't go and get a bunch of bitches pregnant.

They aren't LITERAL brothers, they just keep using that term like they were black.

>>51549891
I have read it. Remember when i said canon?

>>51549968
it clearly is

>>51549979
Now that the storm has gathered, it will culminate! Vect will see the see through the false promises of the Ynnari and rise again!

>>51549979
After the new Tau Triumverate drops.

Ohhhhhh, there's a top bit with a belt buckle. I guess he didn't design the holster for being able to quick draw.

Like all great things, it comes from Rick Priestly.

Vect, Malys, Drazhar(Read:Arhra) Triumvirate when?

>>51548069
Just model it how you want. It's your model. I am pretty sure "counts as" is front and centre in the core rulebook.

If you think it looks cool, do it. Never let tards stop you.

>>51550052

Vect is getting sidelined by all this Ynead business. You DE just have to deal.

> wish this game was more like 30k
What, two deathstars in super-Land Raiders charging at each other and whoever wins that fight wins the game? Because if I wanted Melee In The Middle I'd just play Warmachine.

I was gonna clean my room until I fell to Chaos,
I was gonna get up and find the the cleanser until I fell to Chaos.

My room is stilled messed up and I know why,

because I fell to Chaos.
