Not really. It's on the three unique units (sword dudes, sniper dudes, super terminators) and you can buy it for Veteran Tacticals and Terminators.

>Shred on bolters
Once again, only a few units get it, and they have to buy it.

30k TS are going to be strong, and Magnus is absurdly OP, but the army as a whole isn't too bad. Psyker-heavy TS armies are going to be very light on models, and the Pinning thing will bite them in the ass occasionally.
>>
>>51592021
>>30k TS have Shred on all bolters
not quite true, they can BUY, which is a subtle diffrence

The 36" bubble thing is also both missrepresetative, and only ap5. its an 18" bubble, becuase when we say bubble, and give a number, people use the radius not the diameter .

still fucks vehcles in the butt

>Someone said use wraiths, I guess I didn't think of beasts being able to join ICs, of course they can't reanimate unless Mr spyder tags along
Yes. "Decurion" is such a swearword not becaause what it is but because Canoptek Harvest. And making big unit of Wraiths into Orikanstar turns it into bullshit-tier. It doesnt matter that all the chars only move 6". You can easily use wraiths and coherency to slingshot them into melee. You just need to place them properly.

Placing your models properly is actually about ~25% of the whole gameplay in 40K. I cant believe why nobody ever talks about it. And deployment. Holy shit. Deployment wins games. Helloo, has anyone ever heard about refused flank and can someone point why eldar jetbikes are also bullshit outside of Scatter Lasers?

So I keep hearing 40k 8th is gonna hit this summer, any validity to the rumor? Seems too soon after 7th?
>>
>>51592083
Yeah, TSons are fine besides Magnus and underpriced terminators. Hopefully Magnus' Novas and Invisibility interactions will be FAQ'd - D Smite and Life Leech are powerful but still something you can play against.
>>51592087
Fair enough, they can also be bough only on vets and terminators, but they are pretty much auto-include.

Sweet.
>>
>>51592092
Yeah I was thinking that, since the wraith in front can move 12 and chain back to the guys who only moved 6, and that one wraith is not dying to overwatch other than tau

Also yes deployment is insane, sometimes when I take a little long to set up I apologize to the guy and tell him that most likely my deployment with decide the game, and it usually does, especially if they have a skyhammer or something inbound

>>51592090
Yeah I know D scythes are a pain, but honestly no one in my meta uses them except for the obligotary eldar cheese lord, but he only comes in for tourneys and this list would be for goofing around outside of that, I would bring more numbers in a tourney than a super unit and I know how to get around them

Hey guys,

Due to prolonged, abnormally shitty weather conditions, I have no way of using my chaos black primer. Is vallejo surface primer suitable for models used for table top gaming?

I don't get much time off work, and I have a lot of painting I want to get done.

Please share your success and horror stories with this product.

Should have thought about that before picking Tau, then

Assassins are really fun units, (the vindicare I just find frustrating because he always misses but other people like him)

All of them do rediculous shit and peace both me and my opponent smiling usually

How does this look?
I was thinking of having the Harlies in the raiders, and the blasterborn in the starweaver (my group has the house rule that allies can deploy in each others vehicles as long as they're battle brothers).
I was also thinking of putting a shadowseer with each troupe, and a death jester with each kabalite/trueborn squad,and sticking the succubus with the shadowseer that has the mask of secrets in the hopes of getting the mirror of minds phantasamancy spell and laughing maniacally at the -4 leadership.

Have you ever heard the tragedy of Osama Bin Autismo? I thought not, it's not a story /40kg/ would tell you. It's a /wip/ legend. Church Anon was a dark lord of /wip/ so autistic and butthurt, he could use miniature churches to influence the scale of his Knights. He had such a poor knowledge of 4chin, he could continue spewing his autistic rants for weeks after anyone said the rubble on his Knight's base look like a miniature church.
The dark side of autism is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.
He became so autistic, the only thing he had to lose was his little church. Unfortunately, he taught /wip/ everything he knew about being a sperg. Then /wip/ ousted him for good. Ironic. He could save little churches from death... but not himself.

I was also there, trying to explain to him,

The item LOOKED like a church. So we asked. He got pissed and said rubble, and we said 'oh, i thought it was a church'.

>>necrons and imperium team up

Trazyn doesn't team up with the Imperium. He just hangs around in the shadows helping out whenever his whim pokes him.

>>pylons activate and drain everyone of their use of the warp and banishes all daemons

Not all daemons were banished.

>>this harm the imperial forces more than the chaos forces, LotD and saints confirmed to be deaemons

The pylons forced the Chaos forces to retreat off the planet. I would say it harmed the traitors more.

>LotD and saints confirmed to be deaemons

Did the fact before that LotD were literally ghosts that could not be harmed by physical weapons not tip you off that they weren't normal marines? Fucking retard the Tau, Dark Eldar, traitors, etc shot at them or swung blades at them. The swords passed through their smoky bodies.

Celestine is just an empowered human. She was restored to being a human after the Pylons activated.

>>Abby gets beaten up by a girl

She didn't beat him. She stabbed him in the back and ran (whoop whoop whoop). Abaddon realizing that he was surrounded by 8th Cadian regiment with the Warp closing, decides the wise choice is to leave rather than run after Celestine. After all, she and her friends are dead anyways once he crashes the blackstone on Cadia.

Get your facts straight.

>>loses said fortress and the only stable route out of the eye of terror for his trouble

Losing the Fortress was deemed worth it in exchange for the destruction of Cadia and basically sealing the fate of the galaxy.

I mean you fucking dumbass douche. You realize what just happened? The Cadians pylons were the only things keeping the Eye pinned down in its place. The Eye now is expanding and breaking the walls of reality. Abaddon exchanged the Fortress with a moblie Eye of Terror that will consumed the whole galaxy (if not stopped) and an endless daemon army that will spill from it. Do you realize how small the fortress is compared the galactic destruction that Abaddon has set in motion? And another thing why would he fucking care about the Cadian Gate anymore when the Eye is espanding and going straight to Terra. The FoC says that the traitor ships sailing through the Warp in the Eye are having no problems while the Imperials ships caught in the Eye cannot warp jump leaving easy targets.

Sick and tired of people whinging about HUUR ONE STABLE ROUTE. This isn't 4th ED. This isn't EoT. This is 7th ED going 8th, this is the Gathering Storm, and THIS IS THE CRIMSON PATH. Get updated, son!

Nope. It's a coin flip now. If the Eye takes him to Terra before it destroys the galaxy, then he will intact the Dark Imperium plan and screw over the Chaos Gods.

If the Eye destroys the galaxy before he completes his plan, then the Chaos Gods win.

Either way, as Abaddon said, it will all finally end. This is the end of Abaddon's story one way or another. *sheds a tear*.

honestly not that bad you could take a goliath instead which would allow everyone inside to shoot out instead of 2 from the hatch and 2 targets with the lasgun arrays, the autocannon is 1 str. higher than the multilaser and twinlinked so I think that might work out better for popping tanks, can ignore status effects on a 4+ and you can assualt out of it if need be. I used 20 neophtyes inside 2 goliaths to deal with the local ork boy who ran nothing but barebone boys/grots.

I could imagine them doing a F2P tabletop version that requires you to either buy the models via micro-transactions or buy adding unlock keys to the physical boxes.

It exists within a few organizations with a tradition of following it such as certain faction of Inquisitors and many Marine chapters. However, without the Emperor or a similar authority to directly advocate it and with the massive Ecclesiarchy teaching the Imperial Creed, it is limited to those traditional organizations. Ultimately religion is and easier and more effective tool of control as well as being easier for the average human to accept in the generally ruthless 40k universe. Plus there are literal living saints and such so maybe the Creed has a point.

Necrons are very dry to play against and with... Because of a prevalence of a narrow number of monobuilds.

BS 10. So to miss you have to roll a 1, followed immediately by another one. chance of a 1=1 in 6. Chance of then rolling another one = 1 in 36.

You just have selective memory, burning into your head all the times it has lost you the game or something important failed to happen because of that. You dont remember the 35 other shots in between. its FAR more likely that shot failed to wound/pen then him missing.

No. Too slow and it doesn't fit 40k. GW just needs to get Sega's ass in gear and get them to make another Space Marine game. The first one was great. Good art. Good representation of setting. Good representation of weapons, designs, and good hack and slash combat plus good third person shooting combat. Weapons felt balanced. Melee felt visceral. Enemies felt challenging.
It was a great WH40k game that was everything a non-strategy character oriented 40k game should be. Hell, even the writing was pretty good. I liked Titus, and was legit mad when that shitheel Leandros accused him of heresy.
Just make another fucking Space Marine game for fucks sake. It's not too much to ask.

I play SoB what I use is list tailored against Ork.

My troops are Flamer heavy and it's tranpsort has multi melta
Fast are deepstriking flamers and outflanking meltaguns
Heavy is long range meltas and heavy bolter galor.

Sorry no, maybe biker Orks and Mekk guns can do it. Other wise unless I tailor my list to make it easy for Orks they autofail. It fucking sucks

I don't know if this has been brought up yet, but just saw that in the preview for Fracture on Black Library there's a small communique between inquisitors talking about the Damocles area. They mention the reconquest of Agrellan and that the Tau's invasion fleet has been swallowed by sentient flaming warp storms which have emerged from the burning gulf.

Guess GW heard /tg/ and erased the Tau's only major military victory off screen.

Necrons seem to have a lot of fast units and fun builds, I have like 5 lists made up that all seem fun and viable and all very different

>>51594567
Okay well lets straighten some shit up, first off he's BS8 so there's a 1/12 chance of him missing, second of all I have used him in about 7-8 games, 4 of them he missed a shot, and if you miss a shot he's literally just worthless for a turn, a 150 pt model, worthless. Then there's the issue that he can only do a single wound half the time to a model that has an invuln (read any model worth sniping) or if you're sniping special weapons and stuff he still fails to wound on a one (which makes him a little worse than 1/12 to do nothing), and yeah he sucks with vehicles because his turbo cock round usually will only do one HP to any heavy armour with a tiny tiny chance to explode

Basically the stuff he's good at killing won't get him his points back or be useful enough and the stuff he's not as good at killing is the only stuff worth his time

He's an ineffeciant unit that can sometimes just suck his dick for a turn instead of doing anything, imo the other assassins also suffer from being point sinks and work as better "fun units"

Necrons are infuriating to play against for a few reasons:

1. Reanimation Protocols. when your baseline infantry unit generally has a 1 in 3 chance of telling whatever you just hit it with to fuck off, your army is pretty tough. when you have an FS detachment that boats this to 1 in 2, you have an army that will basically never get tabled. many players find this aggravating.

2. Quantum Shielded Skimmers. nowhere else in 40k will you find AV13 all-around vehicles that can jink. again, high survivability and really annoying to deal with.

3. Gauss. an army whose basic infantry unit is also their best and most cost effective solution to pretty much every big, awesome, super-killy unit other armies can offer can be extremely frustrating to fight.

in general, while Necrons aren't necessarily unbalanced, they have a lot of rules and abilities designed specifically to make other armies' cool shit not work. they're the Fun Police. they come in and say 'no. no more of that. time for boring now.'

Don't matter, the guys at the LGS are actually their for fun, and don't mine the no artifacts rules.

The last tourney there was going to be custom rule that if you secured a relic, one of your HQs equipped item became an artifact if it had an upgraded choice. Like Ressurection orb and orb of eternity. It got goofy during test games so they pitched it but it was a nice idea.

Played against one a couple of times. Never actually seen it work, once I accidentally destroyed it with a Dunecrawler missing the Basilisk near it, and the other my ally killed it, which was a bit of a dick move. It did scare the shit out of us, we were spacing out everything loads.

Big problem if you want to use it as proper killing tool is that it doesn't actually do much after it fires or before it, so you play the game, once take a giant missile, then either lose because it hit something important or keep going because it didn't. It's an excellent supervillain weapon, and it's not like you need more ways to tie up threats. For best results, aim it somewhere where it will catch a few models of yours, just for that proper"expendable minion" feel.

this is mostly correct. I've goths the best user for the Vindicare to be the following:

>TEQ popping
TEQ have the highest point density in the game. usually a squad of Termies will have one or two models with special weapons, like cyclone launchers or Sergeants. the Vindicare can pick off these high value one wound models very well.
>AT support
one shot and 'only' AP2 notwithstanding, the Vindicare can punch holes in tanks from further away and with better accuracy than almost any other model for his price. and remember he ignores cover. he may only rock a 45% chance to damage AV14, but you will be hard pressed to find another Imperial unit that can get that good a chance for that price from up to 6 feet away.

in short, he's actually very good at what he does. but he's still just one guy.

I'm fairly certain a predator annihilator will do a better job of it, for less points. And annihilators aren't that great.

AV13 is also more comforting a defense than T4, considering the snipe man has lost his stealth suit.

>>51594829
Now I'm not making a judgment on you even passive aggressively, but I played necrons when I was new and had the same conplaints, when I was a little less Newbish I played them again and knew how to handle their immortal bullshit

>warriors
Yeah honestly I have no argument, it's like your entire front line army is terminators for cheep cheep points, but they aren't immortal, and guardsmen with make them run in CC, against a close combat army they suck dick (so both of them)

>quantum skimmers
Lance exists, but for other monkey races I feel like any list that doesn't have several ways to deal wit AV 13-14 is asking for it, same for having a unit that ignores cover for jink, for example I play guard and have 4-6 S9-10 cover ignoring pie plates and one laser battery that also ignores cover, but guard is special because it can do that but every army has a way around high armour and cover

>gauss
The fact that your infantry can rip apart any vehicle is pretty insane, but people who say it makes knights and wraithknights worthless against you have not done the math, it takes like 100 gauss shots to kill a knight with it's Sheilds up, and about the same for a wraithknight, that's potentially several turns of your entire army firing at one unit (if you're entire army is in range) , not very efficient

>>
>>51594998
>predator Annihilator
twin linked bs4 makes an 88.88% chance to hit, which is less than the Vindicare's 91.67%. and S9 only has a 1/3 chance to fame AV14. together they give a Predator a 30% chance to damage AV14 (29.6% specifically).

and the lascannons only reach out to 48" and don't ignore cover.

the predator is arguably more survivable, depending on what cover you put the assassin in, but the assassin is almost certainly more killy.
>>
>>51595060
With Commorragh gone they've taken an enormous hit to both their population, industry and mobility, greatly decreasing any practical military power they have

In addition the remaining Dark Eldar under Vect have put themselves explicitly opposed to the dominant forces in the Webway right now (Daemons and the Ynnari) making their situation even more tenous. Adding futher problems the Ynnari have decided to give the Imperium more access to the Webway (they always had access via the Exhubris portal but now they have more) meaning the small remaining Dark Eldar are largely fucked

>>51594964
Ynnead (Eldar god of the dead) is partially formed by Eldrad and a bunch of Harlequins who steal a whole load of crystal Farseers and suck up a bunch of souls from all the Infinity circuits to feed to this thing to wake it up and kill Slaanesh without needing the whole of the Eldar race to die.

Deathwatch intervene and end the ritual before it's completion, so only a fraction of it is created, it eventually contacts a Craftworlde Warlock turned Commorite Wych who becomes his sort of Herald, Yvraine.

Yvraine is killed in the fighting pits and brought back to life by Ynnead, but doing so makes Khaine's gate explode due to psyker powers.

Yvraine is rescued by the Visarch, an Exarch turned warrior of Ynnead, and they escape to Biel-Tan, and proceed to break the Infinity Circuit, busting Biel-Tan open and turning it into a fleet.

Avatar of Ynnead is born and starts smacking Chaos around. They go rescue Eldrad from his trial and then raid a Croneworld for magic swords.

Then they start collecting followers, eventually culminating in them rescuing a bunch of Imperials and using their death powers to revive Guilliman.

During all this, a fuckload of Eldar of all sorts join up because they see Ynnead as the last hope of the Eldar. Because if they can strengthen Ynnead enough they can restore their reencarnation cycle and never have to fear Slaanesh again.

that's one shot with a 29% chance plus two that aren't twin linked, overall you get close to 75% chance to deal one hull point.

again though I need to point out that the predator can't ignore cover, and since you're firing three shots instead of one your opponent gets 3 rolls instead of none.

AND you get 4 feet of range instead of 6.

also the Vindicare's easier to add to an army, since on his own he's a detachment. the Predator had to come in a detachment of Marines.

Depends on how much you care about winning really. If you actually want to stand a chance you will need atleast 2 or 3 Flying Hive Tyrants and plenty of mucliod spores. If you just want to have fun fluffy matches then youll could use a few boxes of gants Termagants are the better of the two but its your choice really. Zoanthropes help with building Synapse and can blow open enemy vehicles if they arent shot to pieces right away. Tervigons are pretty fun to have in games along with exocrines.
>>
>>51595318

>>51595318
Tyranids are generally believed to be in a bad state, over-costed, under-powered units.
But, and this is a big BUT, that's by competitive standards. For standard and friendly matches they are actually not terrible, you can go full gribbly spam or a nid-zilla list generally, mixing them can sometimes work but you have to be careful which units you mix together and which upgrades you take. And always take crushing claws on Carnifexes.
>>
>>51595360
>AND you get 4 feet of range instead of 6.
I mean technically yes, but that's basically irrelevant.

75% to 90% is closer than I thought. I imagine the predator ekes out against AV13 and under and, more importantly, against monstrous creatures thanks to the extra shots.

It doesn't do that anymore. It only ignores the save for that shot, except the shot still wounds on a 4+ so it's a total crapshoot.
>>
>>51595474
if we're against Monstrous Creatures then the assassin swaps to Hell fire rounds, which wound on a 2+, making his shots effectively S12.

against any MC he wounds 76.39% of the time. the Predator averages 2.22 hits, and assuming no cover, will wound more against any MC of Toughness less than 10 (T10 eats 0.74 wounds, T9 eats 1.11).

Against AV13 the predator does indeed perform better, but again this assumes no cover.

basically, you've correctly illustrated that bouncing dice is the way of thworking game in 40k. the Vindicare Assassin bounces dice harder than anybody, but he only bounces one.

As a Marine player a Predator is probably the better investment, due to toughness and shot count. the point I was trying to make is that he is actually very very good at what he does...but he still only fires one shot.

if you're trying to pick a Ministorum Priest out from a 50-man blob of guardsmen, though...there's no one better.

One Ghostkeel as the centerpiece of a 1000 point army could be fine. The Tau haters here love to shit on the big mechs but as suits go the Ghostkeel is probably among the more balanced big ones.

specifically it takes 12 Gauss hits, which rounds out to 36 hits overall, and thus 54 shots. this can be done by 28 necrons. not so large a number.

in reference to everything else, yes, once you know how to use their weaknesses against them, like their CQC vulnerability and VERY poor ability to deal with cover, they're not so bad.

but my point was that against NEW players they're a harsh, unforgiving fight, and Shandy all players they have a lot of abilities that revolve around draining the fun from the match. with Necrons the best solution is to hit them as hard as you can, as much as you can - an old-fashioned slugfest.

this is also a very boring way to play unless you're Guard and so it all the time.

for reference, I play Guard exclusively.
