They were always popular.

No one played them because Rubrics are unplayably overcosted in 40k and it is impossible to play a fluffy TSons army that can win.

So they all have other armies. Armies that don't get tabled turn 3 and can cause more than 273 pts of damage during the game.

But now TSons have legion tactics, so all the people with 40k TSon displays can make a 30k army and play games without know they lost when they accepted the game.

>yiffs OP

Their rules are decent but not that powerful, Russ kills shit 1v1 and doesnt do much else.

1ksons are so modular because of their reliance on psychic powers that you can either go full on cheese which will leave you a bit outnumbered when compared to other legions or you could do a normal legion list with some psychic support.

Reposting this from the previous thread:
Word Bearer daemonfag here.
Until I get more units, I'll be running Zone Mortalis games so pic related interests me. In ZM FOC there's no primary detachment, only in AoD FOC, right? Meaning I could do without a second compulsory Chaplain or Centurion HQ and thus be free to use the Dark Brethren Rite which required a Diabolist.
Also, Mhara Gal how big a dick is one for using it in ZM?

Personally I like Thousand Sons immensely because the main thing I respect is intellect and knowledge, and also firmly believe that willfull ignorance is the worst trait of humanity.

The real autists are Custodes, read MoM.

aren't they separate armies though?

>>51615445
Someday, FW said they plan on doing a redbook for Talons of the Emperor, so it's expected they'll get more units there.
>>
>>51615534
Think so.
>>
>>51615534
Yes. For some reason Sisters need a HQ per 3 units while Custodes have no such limitation. Would love to take a Sisters unit with my Custodes, but can't take them since Allies can only have 1 HQ and I'm not giving up my Captain.

>>51615569
No, they're one list.
>>
>>51615160
Mostly because they're the same as in 40k, so we're familiar with them. I really think that's it. There wouldn't be as much excitement if World Eaters were already in their red+brass scheme, for example.

It's a missed opportunity. Okay, they've stayed away from giving the Dark Angels all the robes and plasma they have in 40k - that's great. And they changed the SW's shade of gray. But the Blood Angels have the same decorations as they do in 40k. Why? They could've done something wild like make them a flyer-heavy legion specialized in fighting in the atmosphere of gas planets. Or at least removed all the tear motifs and made that an affectation they adopted after losing Sanguinius.

The Salamanders didn't have to be the fire legion. They could've had some other random obsession, and then late in the Heresy they declared themselves "reborn like the phoenix" and THEN became obsessed with flame weapons.

The Iron Hands should've had more legion-specific Mechanicum units than the Thousand Sons. At least their color scheme isn't quite the same as in 40k... though still pretty dull.

It makes sense for Imperial Fists to be ramrod-straight and boring, and they got all their cool shield units. And as the template for 40k chapters and the healthiest post-Heresy legion, it was best not to mess with Ultramarines too much. But the others could've been changed more.
>>
>>51615548

RoW are designed for the AoD force org. The other ones don't allow them unless the mission says you can take them. (This stuff is in the beginning of Red Book.)

If your running ZM games, you can use the AoD Force org and a RoW or the ZM force org for it's bonuses.

Dreadnoughts are generally awesome on ZM and you should make sure that you can kill one if it comes to play. The fact that the Mhara Gal can bypass most obstacles is awesome also.

Just make sure that you mention that you might bring things with AVs when you schedule a game, just as courtesy. It's nice when your playing someone to let them know you might bring a Dreadnought to a infantry fight. (Just so they know to bring something that can deal with it. You don't have to tell them it's a Mhara Gal. That would ruin the surprise!)

>>51615408
Dunno, if Ryan Kimmel says they're OP, I'm inclined to believe him. He's the rules guru as far as I'm concerned.

>>51615226
TSons have 2W Terminators that don't pay much for that wound and their other special stuff. They get enough dice to be guaranteed to get some of the psychic powers that are generally considered OP, like invisibility. And Magnus is really good against a wide variety of targets.

Custodes might be easy to shoot off the table. In isolation, Valdor sounds OP for the points, and giving everyone Deep Strike is insane, but not having an assault tank and being expensive might balance things out (except in ZM). This one's less obvious than TSons.

SW have an incredible primarch and their troops choice is a lot more versatile than any others. The jury is still out about how nasty they are without Russ.

Tsons termies are suspiciously cheap. Magnus is pretty ridiculous for a primarch which makes him about even with a real LoW.

Russ kills things in melee, wolves are pretty mediocre otherwise.
>>
>>51615791
>If your running ZM games, you can use the AoD Force org and a RoW or the ZM force org for it's bonuses.
I see. There was some mention of Rites in ZM so I thought that they can be normally applied to ZM FOC. To be frank, I've been occupied in the fluff sections mostly, and rules being all over the place didn't help much. Thank you for clearing that up.

>Mhara Gal
Yes, I guess you're right about mentioning fielding AV. I'm asking about it because of that rule, I wouldn't want it to break the game.

>>51615822
I'll go with the Black Comet if I'm able to freehand it, since it doesn't have transfers. Simply the rule of cool.
If I can't paint it on minis, I might invent my own for painting's sake. I haven't painted any minis yet as I decided upon Word Bearers only few hours ago, it was them or Thousand Sons, but then I saw all the daemons I have on sprues so it wasn't a hard choice to make.
Books 3 and 5 have some chapter iconography with scarce description if you're interested in more. Several chapters already bear some reminiscence to specific gods, such as Osseous Throne and Tri-fold Crown if you're into that, but they should still be undivided in allegiance.

You never know your luck, they might get buffed. The B&C tactics thread for the wolves is basically just people saying they wish they had better rules, and talking about putting pressure on forgeworld to buff them like they did the justaerin.

>>51616079
I was thinking of the twisting rune as I hate ultramarines (also a friend plays them) so it makes sense. Then I realized that they where exterminated in Calth so it would be restrictive for their use later because I am a lore autist. I have ordered the transfers from FW but I still don't know what to do.

They remained loyal to the bitter end of Tizca. They never wanted to betray the Imperium, and still the Imperium didn't care. Their struggle was for naught. Their hope was crushed. They're the underdogs of Horus Heresy.

And yet they endured. They managed to kick the Wolves' ass twice after HH.

That's why I love them.

That sounds good but how many months did you wait to get it?

>>51616233
Well, the Wolf Guard terminators are a bit shit. I calculated that if I used my terminator squad as Wolf Guard, I'd pay 150pts. extra for +1 str. on power weapons and a buffed charge. Maybe if they were 2 wounds and available as command squad, I'd actually consider it some more.

Destroyer Wolves are better than regular ones, even though they don't get jump packs and Grey Slayers I find to be nice, though the entry is a mess and in dire need of editing.
>>
>>51616200
True enough.

>>51616236
All the Ultramarine haters died on Calth so at least it suits you. You can always go with a broken chapter structure later in the Heresy, though I suppose most Word Bearers retained their organisation despite the scheming and rampant backstabbing in order to gain more power.
There's Graven Star, Flayed Hand, Serrated Sun and the Unspeaking icons on FW transfers, just in case.

So as I want to build a Whale-Stormbird, what weapons should I include? 40k version has 4 turreted Lascannon and 3 Twin Hbolters, but AFAIK the 30k one has an extra las and no bolters. How would I go about representing the Void Shields and the Orbital Strike?

Also somewhat worried about having it the right size, since the models I can find are 15" long, and that's about 4" short. I suppose I could put some engines on the tail and add a plume of exhaust, and tell my opponents they can shoot that too?

Also, what crazy stuff could I do with it? Going to have a gondola, upper deck and the fins will have the leading edge armoured and possibly loaded up with a couple missiles.
It's my Archmagos Genetor's personal ride, so I can go a bit mental. Was considering cutting an indent into the belly, having the skin stretched around all the mechanical bits and hatches leading from the gondola to the upper deck, and having the ribcage protrude from there to hold the gondola in place.

Yeah, I know. But they could've made the Salamanders not be obsessed with Nocturne until their "rebirth". The Blood Angels aren't very Baaly.

I like that the SW have a totally different role during the Heresy compared to 40k, and the Dark Angels changed completely in character too (except they look dull in 30k). That's just two of the loyalists.

On the traitor side, six legions changed a lot (EC, WE, DG, TS, SoH, WB - okay, maybe the WB not as much) and that's why we like them so much.

Anon, regulated & sanctioned psychic power is nice, like how the Guilliman was a non-vocal supporter.
And in fact more people either wanted the Librarius or didn't care too much about it, like Dorn...but then (fucking) Magnus went and RUINED IT FOR EVERYONE by wanting UNRESTRICTED SORCERY WITH (((FAMILIARS))).

Magnus caused the (already planned to be honest) banning of psykers, and then he destroyed Mankind's Hope by breaking the Imperial Webway, and then doomed his legion in half-hearted capitulation, and then FURTHER doomed them with his pact with Tzeentch.

All in all, Magnus was always his own enemy, and he isn't the protagonist in the tragedy, that's the Emperor

Magnus has always been the fool.

>The emperor should get on his knees and ask dorn what he should do.
Reminder that the Emperor was busy keeping hell from spiling into realspace and creating the Eye of Terra, and Dorn was the Lord Commander only because Guilliman was (wrongly) busy elsewhere.
Roboute is nice, he's a stateman. An Imperium with both him and Dorn as co-rulers (below the Emperor of course) would have been awesome.
It was his reforms what also keeps the Imperium working(ish).
>>51617842
>This improves Dorn in my opinion.
Not saying I don't like him.
Dorn was based and he out-zealoted the dsignated zealot (Lorgar) in his belief on the Great Crusade.
I'm a loyalist Iron Warrior and I'd totally fortify with Lord Dorn, if he allowed it.

But he fucking sucks at diplomacy. Srsly, let Malcador handle diplomacy. Authoritarism is the rule of the Imperium, but the Inquisition is what holds it together.

Everyone think magnus is tragic. Mortarion is tragedy. Kept under the boot of psyker scum on barburus. Then a new psyker the emperor replaces their boot. Horus losing his shit allows mortarion to finally begin to remove psyker from the premises. But no, there is another filthy fucking psyker in his legion, who worships literally the most repulsive god possible, and give him and his legion space aids. Mortarion's only mistake was not just dying in defiance. Because he broke like a bitch, he is now a daemon prince who got punk'd on by another fucking psyker Draigo.

The only thing Mortarion got right was Pickelhaubes and when he sold his soul to nurgle he asked for good rules in all editions rather than personal power.

what was the reasoning behind the space wolves getting sent to Prospero? They weren't suited for a diplomatic mission or sieges and bombardment, so why were they written in as the attackers? Why not iron warriors or a future traitor legion? Just seems incoherent to write space wolves as an infantry centric offensive force that we somehow are led to beleive can destroy the greatest city in the Imperium. At least they should have incurred catastrophic losses, regardless whether Magnus didn't activate the full defence capabilities.

Really?

It's because Horus figured that Yiffs would do a fuckton of damage to the Tsons (and further push Mags towards Chaos) while also keeping them on the other side of espaz, and then there was the hope that Mags and co. would royally put the fuck on the yiffs.

Which is why I didn't propose him for overall command. And he was aware of this, having offered the seat of Imperator Regis to Sanguinius and stepped down as a High Lord of Terra.
At least he's aware he's the Imperial Architect, but not the Imperial Regent. That's for other kinds of people.

If you mean Inferno, then the Custodes are slow and deadly in melee but that's about it really, Wolves are Meh apparently and TS are still debated because Psykers are complicated.

New characters are all hilariously bullshit, though. Russ beats almost anyone in a melee because his armour makes enemies in base contact take -1 to hit R1 then -2 R2+, Magnus throws out 18" radius S:D 2d6 ignores cover and LoS novas with impunity and literally cannot be hit ever when invisible. Also a 275pt Custodes tribune has -1 to hit him in assault and a 3++ rerollable invuln always, and can statistically beat anyone but Scoria.

Scoria wins the fight against Russ and the Tribune mathhammer wise, but it's so damn close that it's a coin flip on the table and will never end before the game does.

Phew, that's the basics.

So the new Titan Guard stuff has my dick hard for thinking about a Mechanicum mechanized infantry list again, and after playing around with the points and doing some mathhammer on the Peltasts this is what I'm looking at for a 2000 point start:

Matrix of Ruin (Ordo Reductor, obviously)

HQ:
Magos Reductor 125
Secutarii Axiarch 60

Troops
2x3 Thallax, Plasma 290
2x20 Peltasts, Hammershot, Omnispex, Triaros 870
1x18 Hoplites, Omnispex, Triaros 361

Heavy Support
Krios 125
Krios Venator 150

The Reductor is a tax to unlock Matrix of Ruin and Reductor rules, which gives all the tanks scoring in enemy deployment and everyone gets better MTC in most terrain types that people use. Thallax tax isn't a big deal because Secutarii can't be compulsory anyway, and Djinn-Sight is honestly pretty damn useful for fucking with infiltrator armies.

The Axiarch gives the three main infantry units PE(Infantry), which dramatically increases their lethality when combined with Hazard Protocols. Hazard Protocols is basically the BS5 Doctrina Imperative except you get to use it every turn plus BS2 snap shots, but -1WS.

I wasn't sure what gun option I liked the most; against marines Hammershot maths out to about 39% more unsaved wounds for 25% more cost and 6" of extra range to boot; against T3 4+ duders Flechette does quite a bit better, so in the unlikely event that no one plays space marines in Horus Heresy you do have the option to drop Hammershot and save a whopping 120 points.

Radium Carbines might be competitive as well but I wasn't sure if I mathed it right. They sure as fuck cost less money to buy.

Hoplites in general are straight gangster compared to the experimental 40k rules. I'm split on whether I like giving them an omnispex more or giving the Axiarch matching weapons; modeling I'd like him to match because it makes it way easier but -1 to cover for hulled-down tanks is pretty juicy.

At 2500 I can make the Magos actually contribute, round everyone out and add Vultarax.

Yellow's not bad at all - I'd say white is the color that looks worst if you don't put a lot of effort into it.

The shortcut way to paint yellow is Casandora Yellow (shade) over a white undercoat. Or be more conventional and paint yellow over Iyanden Darksun, shade with Hasselhoff Earthshade, and highlight with white. But you can skip a step and be okay.

it's not just that, a big part of it is that Mechanicum finally have a unit that pairs perfectly to the Triaros. roll up, hop out, 20 dudes with high BS and guns that are actually good let loose with the dakka. if you're not worried about barrage you can even do silly shot like block LoS with the huge and long triaros model and then Blind Barrage over the top of it so they have to try to move around it to fight back

Pariah bolter I would just cut down a bolter to make it look slimmer.

Depends on the blackshields, but normally I'd say pariah armor is mostly useless unless you use the outlander thing that gives you rerolls of 1 for shooting. Even then, pretty shit.

If you can look past my incredibly thick paintjob and that I've posted these models before, I can offer some input on this, as I've been trying the same thing with my guys for a few weeks.

Recess shading with sepia or gloss earthshade before the first coat of the red dulled the red to a shade between the desired candy red and Word Bearers red. I found it better to do a light pass of fleshshade instead and use nuln after the red.

As I suck at painting and have no airbrush, I've ordered some tamiya translucent spray, with the idea to prime, spray retributor, then spray with that.
I want that to work both because brushing on the clear red is a little beyond me, and because the brush method on vehicles or even dreads will be a real pain.

Ha. I have no intention to take Magnus, at least not until we have plenty of battle reports come back than don't show he's unfair as fuck.
But really, Ahriman is a much better character than Magnus, and I have a sad need to get all him and his bros converted up.

One thing the TS rules have done in removing the need for a Praevian is fuck how I was gonna run Ignis.
Sanakht - Blade Cult sarge
Ctesias - well he can just be a Librarian, I guess.
But Ignis? Another Librarian? There go all my HQ slots and now I have a load of ICs for my opponent to kill and wreck my Ld.
Maybe I can settle to make him a Termie Sgt, he does wear the armour. But then he'd be better as an ordinary Term and why take those when Pride gives you Scarab Occult as troops.
Fuck.

Anyone with Inferno able to share some into on SW unit markings, colours, etc.

Was thinking of pic related as colour scheme. Black wolf head on the red pauldron, unit markings in white on the black pauldron. Unit citations on the red knee pad in black, personal merits on the black knee pad in white.

Speaking of knee pad markings, how do you deal with something like MkVI without knee pads? Just leave them out? Paint the top of the pad black/red and apply markings there?
>>
>>51620867
Anon who finds you amusing.

Thats scary.

Having an established set of character names like that, I intend on fleshing the characters out as they achieve shit on the board.
>>
>>51620925
It's more common to have a black background with a red head, as the transfers are red. BUT, if you get the molded shoulder pads, you could easily do that.
Leave them out, or use the MkVI marines as Huscarls/ SGT's- where their armor and other adornings like standards or weapons will set them apart from other marines.

I wanted black to be like a "company" colour, so two black pads would look a bit dull.

Not that anon, but they said at the weekender that each primarch release has represented thrm at that time. So, Angron was weakened by the nails and Horus isn't hopped up on Chaos Juice yet. Those were the examples they gave, and said that new versions from later in the heresy would be created. No real word on whether the older primarchs who shouldn't be less than Russ ("height of his strength" or not).

>>
>>51622783
If you take SotDA, I'd put infantry squads in there. 4+ armour gives them at least some protection against bolters, 5+ on levies won't. Don't know if Feral Warriors is worth it if you're not gonna swamp the enemy in levies and in that case I think the cult provenances probably do a better job. Abhuman Helots for T4 or just Warrior Elite for better Ld. on non-Grenadiers might work better.

Don't forget that grenadiers get Rhinos. Why not give the Grenadiers Rhinos and put an Infantry squad into the Gorgon and some power armoured Ogryns with them? If you take Abhuman Helots, they'll be T6. Give them power axes and you got 4 (5 on a charge) WS4 S6 AP2 attacks on a T6 W3 3+ model.
