working on my 30k/40k force, in 30k they are loyalist Emperors children,

in 40k they are the descendants of those marines.

however I can't nail down a good name for them

I was thinking Pheonix Knights or Pheonix Blades

any suggestions?? names for characters, titles etc?

I was thinking red for the boltguns or should I stick to white?
>>
So I was just noticing that the rules for rapid fire and heavy weapons say you can't charge in the following assault phase. With the new strength from death rules saying a model that performs a soul burst can immediately charge, could a unit of warriors that fire rapid fire weapons and dark Lances and was near a unit that died charge as they aren't not issuing a charge in the following assault phase. Could someone double check to see if I am Right?

Karl Franz is the emperor (that's it, the head of state of the Empire, not an immortal demigod) in Warhammer Fantasy. He got dropped in Age of Sigmar so he's making a crack about how they're obviously gonna reboot the setting as a result of this arc.
>>
>>51645539
Nah, girlyman would never allow that.

He's a classic Roman dictator. He takes complete power in times of trouble, but returns it as soon as it's not needed
>>
So I don't play fantasy battle and I've not been part of 40k since the introduction of 5th ed. What exactly is wrong with Age of Sigmar and what did that introduce that fucked over fantasy battle and why will it by extension ruin 40k?

Thanks.

Can someone post page 273 from 3rd edition rulebook?
>>
>>51645755
They killed the WHFB setting almost entirely and replaced with new shit.

Initially the rules were awful but they got better.

Most people are just afraid that the 40k setting they've had since the 80's is going to die.
>>
>>51645755
For a lot of Fantasy fans, it's way too streamlined. They also completely wiped the setting besides a bunch of characters and the chaos gods.

People are worried 40k will get the same treatment, but I doubt it.
>>
>>51645747
I think it's more of Karl Franz getting his limbs knocked off and having Sigmar's bodyjacking soul shoved down his throat.
>>
So, I had a thought. The other Triumvirates have been cross-armies. The 1st was SoB, Inquisition and Mechanicus, the 2nd was Eldar, DE, and Harlequins.

So, if a Tyranid one gets made, it might have a Genestealer Cult part of it. Maybe a named Magus or something.
>>
>>51645731
People actually want a SoB army there is a market for it. If third party can make money with a niche within a niche within niche.

It just GW does not understand selling something beside marines
>>
>>51645775
Some knowledge of both franchises seemed to go hand in hand for years, and still does in the eyes of some oldfags. I wouldn't worry about it too much because fantasy is in a very weird place now.
>>
>>51645797
Well yes, I would sell my good kidney to have a plastic SoB army from GW, I'm just surprised "new" players are willing to shell out for an all-metal army in the age of plastic.

I ain't shitting you. In "End Times : Glotkin", Otto Glotkin kills Karl Franz. As Karl Franz dies, Sigmar's essence that was freed from the Vortrex slams into Karl's body. Sigmar possesses Karl's body and kicks the Glotkin's butts.

Huh. This is actually kind of dope. I'm painting up some Empire minis rn to field as a 'freeguild' army in AoS and I was trying to figure out why old Karl's name would be engraved on all their armour fluff-wise. Maybe the myth of his life has persevered and become a saint or christ figure in the Sigmarite religion?

I'll take this over to Sigmar general before I spitball any further, but thanks for letting me know

Genestealer Cults are VERY good at concealing themselves. Also, Terra is by all accounts a hive world. It's got an enormous population, both of natives and pilgrims arriving to pay homage to the Emperor. There's plenty of nooks and crannies where a Cult might be able to establish itself and hide without being noticed.

I mean, Leviathan is making a beeline for Terra, after all.

>>
>>51645980
I always imagined Terra being secretly a hellhole, with the underhives packed with GSC, Chaos Cults, mutants and xenos. The Inquisition would have a large fighting force stationed, and they would regularly team up with the Arbites and Imperial Fists to root out the heresy in the underhives. A thankless task, and almost a pointless one, as they take out one cult, another one rises to power even faster.
And while there are massive battles down there, they try to maintain a facade of holiness and peace on the upper hive spires.

Random thought:

Suppose a Daemon Prince was 125 points base for Chaos Space Marines base for Chaos Space Marines, and had the same initial wargear/loadout as a Chaos Lord (starts with a Bolt Pistol/CCW and Power Armor stock, can take a Bike/Jump Pack, etc), but Wings cost 75 points base instead. Allow any "Daemon of" to satisfy the equivalent "Mark of" requirement, but make Bikes/Mounts/Jump Packs an extra 10 points over their mortal equivalent too.

Does this re-balance Princes in a way they can be used as more than just a Flying Circus tool? Thoughts?

I believe you can charge again, yes, and even attack. So a punchy enough melee squad might be able to wipe out two enemy units in one turn.
>>
>>51646389

>>
>>51646155
I think one could even make the Iron Warriors relevant again with such an angle.
Turns out the Imperial Fists, under the watchful eye and request of the Inquisition, retain a full chapter on Terra, to help cleaning Terra from the scum of the underhives. But with time, the chapter grows bitter and even hateful of the Inquisition. They do their job, risk their lifes and that of their brothers, and for what? Mindwipes at best, often times fates worse than death. One day their Chapter Master dies in the underhives, killed by mutants/xenos, his corpse desecrated and the Fists humiliated like never before. After all these years, they finally break, and rampage through the hives, and head off from their fortress into space. They travel through the warp a long time, and on the whim of a Chaos God, the corrputed Fists land on Medrengard. Initially the Iron Warriors fight the Fists, but after some time Perturabo joins the fight, and the remaining Fists are cornered. Perturabo offers them a place in his Legion, as the ultimate humiliation of Rogal Dorn. They accept, and now Perturabo knows about the secrets of Terras defense systems, and how to get around them.

I'm doubting you seeing as you clearly have your facts mixed up. GW were surprised at Veridyan, not Celestine.
They probably attribute the Imperium Triumvirate selling so well to the number of AdMech players there are.

If you want to stop people from flying him, make princes jump monsterious creatures like Riptides. Give them some warp shenanigans gun and weapon and 2+ armor and people will use them on the ground often.

>Black Templars ok with witches and even working with xenos
Who is a witch? Navigators? The inquisitor, that they are bound to follow since it is prescribed in the Imperial Creed that the Emperor's Inquisition is His Voice?
Celestine, the literal embodiment of His Might, that coincidentally, the Imperial Creed demands they follow?
>>
You could have prevented this.
>>
>>51646518
But it's the reason why no one runs anything on the ground these days. Tyrants and Princes are forever flying because they're not as durable as other monsterious creatures, like the infamous riptide. So you can never get your points worth when your prince is killed by overwhelming lascannon fire.

a) Princes are already jumo monstrous creatures if you buy them wings, retard. FMCs can glide.

b) Riptide isn't a jump monstrous creature.

They can not like them, but they do still need someone to drive their ships out of the warp.
>>
>>51646667
No I meant that considering a huge part of their schtick is veneration of the Emperor and Astropaths gain their powers by meeting up with the Emperor and receiving his light and blessing, it's about as far afield of something they wouldn't be okay with as I could imagine.

>>51646662
How is the jump better though? It would be better to just let the princes have long movement range, give them the ability to do psychic and crazy shooting, then just have them do an assault jump backwards.
Only way to have them on the ground is if they can jet jump away from tar pits and short ranged mass fire.

FMCs get to Jump, Swoop, and/or Jink. The Daemon Prince of Nurgle was fairly common before Traitor Legions, as it gave you 2+ cover in the open.

Nowadays, Night Lords get the Stormbolt Plate Prince of Tzeentch, which gets 2+ armor, 2+ cover, and re-rolls 1s for saves. Aka, it's functionally immune to ranged attacks that aren't Ignore's Cover (Hunter's Eye Gravcents, Psychic Shriek, even "Bring It Down" or Markerlight Plasma in a pinch though you don't see those two as often).

Tyranids - 4000pts.jpg

How do I put together a 4000 point Tyranid army to use in a 2 VS AI co-op game?

Living Tide with a shitload of small units and maybe a few special rule adjustments like expanding the formation rule's Tyrant clause to both the normal and the flying one.

Pic related, first draft. (Though probably cutting down on flyers since that many kind of force the players to take a lot of AA weaponry and would probably put a dent in both the fun as well as the freedom of the scenario.

I also know nothing about Tyranids and judged how good their wargear is based solely on if its stats looked alright or not.

As wargear is concerned you can't take 2 venom cannons and the twin linked devourers with brainleech worms are just better, also on hive guard you should put impaler cannons as shock cannons are not particulary worth it. The army in general looks pretty cool for a thematic battle, it's not particularly unbeatable for 2 organized players and it's always fun to shoot down loads of tyranids.

Guys, what if, upon Guilliman's return, he and the local Black Templar Marshal get a chance to speak to each other, he learns about their non-Codex compliant ways and actually praises them for following their own doctrines and ways rather than blindly following a book that even their Primarch didn't want to follow?

Would that be enough to get them their own codex again?

You can take Black Guardian units, whether they're on foot, bikes, or Vypers/War Walkers, as part of a Ynnari detachment, but they also exist as their own little sub-faction.

Im going to say something unpopular, but I would like people to hear it out.

I am a longtime customer of chinaman, and other alternative markets to forgeworld. Recently I had a tournament coming up, and I decided based off speed only, I would buy one time from forgeworld. I had heard stories how all their stuff is warped, and with generally less quality than the knockoffs in the first place. I got a firehawk gunship. And while it was an absolute bitch to assemble, due to the sheer technical skill it takes to assemble the kit-easily the hardest kit I have had to assemble-the quality I feel was way better than I am used to. There was only one piece where I had to do some minor greenstuff patching, and shockingly little warping, despite the almost footlong side panels.

I can tell the resin is a better quality too. I just wanted to say dont be afraid to try them. Especially if the stuff is cheap to begin with. Just ordered a set of autocannons for my chaos guys, not even one barrel was slightly bent. Feels good.

ALSO pic related fucking WHEN, GW?

Phoenix Blades is pretty good.

I also like the name (keeping with a fiery/knightly theme) Sons of Fire, Blades of Sanctity, or Fulgrim's Bane.

But Phoenix blades has the most potential. As for titles, I had thought of these.

Phoenix Lord (Chapter Master)
Brother-Ascendant (Captain)
Phoenix Guard (Veteran)
Phoenix Brother (Brother-Sergeant)
Cinderborn (Battle Brother)
Ashenborn (Neophyte)
Forgeborn (Techmarine)
Master of the Pyre (Master of the Forge)
Brand-Priest (Chaplain)
Master of Rebirth (Head Chaplain)
Flame Healer (Apothercary)
Lord of Life (Master of the Apothecarion)
Chronicler of Fire (Librarian)
Lord Chronicler (Master of the Librarius)

Of course I'm not telling you WHAT to put, just some ideas I had.

Not really the main problem GW had with female models was the tranny faces. The paint jobs didn't help.

Proper tits and hips are the things you need to make obvious enough at this scale to tell the model is a woman and not just a man in drags.

So do you think this is a good start? What else would you order? I am thinking in the near future once I have these built getting a armored assault box for both. (Transport and infantry) and maybe a wraith knight/wraithguard

Some dark elf ship things or incubi. Maybe some warp spiders.

Are regular guardians any good? I like their models but I prefer t he models for Kabalite warriors.

I probably would like more bikes from both force but I hear people would get mad at me for using them.

I can't fucking stand the female faces that geedubs makes. It's almost like their designers have never even seen a woman in their life, only fugly trannies.

At least we have based Statuesque Miniatures to make female heads for our shit if we wanted to go 3rd party. I made the mistake of assembling just one of my Sisters of Silence with the geedubs face and regretted it ever since.

Yeah. Together they make a nice core of a fast, mechanised Ynnari army, though you'd need the Fracture of Biel-Tan book for those rules.

Eldar army selection is super open ended now. I could recommend the tournament level stuff, but Eldar are strong enough that I'd just pick stuff you think looks cool or has fun rules. You can always tune your army to be stronger later if you particular local meta requires it.

Dark Eldar do have a concept of love, or at least something broadly similar, though it manifests as a mutual, all-consuming desire to own and dominate their partner, and prevent anyone else from taking them away from you. The DE Codex itself mentions that Vect and Lelith genuinely seem to trust one another, or at least are aware that neither gains anything by turning on the other. And that she's "rumoured" to act as his concubine.

So, draw your own conclusions.
>>

Still only seems to have a few pistols and chainswords (and if I remember correctly regular marines can't really be taking power weapons as much).

Seriously GW what the fuck...
>>
>>51648482
Reminder that if you want to have fun, just talk with your opponent before the game starts like a normal fucking person. Just let him know that you want to play for fun and you're not interested in facing any power-lists. Then just walk the fuck away if he takes out 6 riptides.

>>51648512
It's probably pretty expensive and you won't get the shoulder pads, but you could look at Forge World's 30k upgrade kits. I'm sure they do packs of generic BP+Chainsword arms.

Crusader Squads can take a Power Weapon instead of a Flamer/Melta/etc and a Power Fist instead of a heavy weapon.

The triumvirate of death eldars may not be perfectly designed, BUT the kit looks really easy to convert.

Yvrain's ugly triangular front piece, for example, is a separate piece on the sprue, so you can easily modify it.

And the Yncarne's ectoplasmic swiss cheese seems mostly separate from his hair, so you don't absolutely have to model it.

A bunch of rally nice bits like shoulder pads and the furry cape are also separateand can be re-used in conversions, and if you want you can even model Yvraine without her dress.

Dark Eldar player here. Quick question. What's the benefit of taking trueborn in a venom over scourges? They can both take the same set of weapons, and can move the same distance cant they, but a set of scourges is 30 points cheaper. I don't think its worth it for one twinlinked shot from the venom so is it just the flickerfeild and a bit of protection from a vehicle?

Trueborn get a vehicle to hide in, which keeps them alive longer because it has to be destroyed before they take hits. They can fire out of it, since it's open-topped.

So was it ever confirmed that Alpharius was killed in the duel on his battle ship? I remember that one of his generals was there with him and they looked exactly alike

>>51649120
feel no pain is just the name of a rule.
All pacts with chaos are faustian in nature. I.e. it'll come back to bite you in the ass one way or the other.
It's always gonna be worse than it was before.
>>
>>51649157
As far as I know, the catch with nurgle is that your soul is bound to be a plaguebearer after you die. He actually dulls the pain from his plagues, thats why infected people(including Death Guard) swear themselves to him, to stop the agony.
Btw, whats the catch with khorne?
>>
>>51649120
>Nurgle blesses us with his gifts, so we dont feel pain
he blesses you with gifts so you don't die and your suffering is prolonged. He also blesses people with an excess of gifts so they get disgustingly mutated and completely miserable. Because nurgle loves watching people suffer.

Don't take the gallows humour and and outwardly jovial attitude of his followers literally.
>>
>>51649190
They want to be stronger in combat?
>>
>>51649190
>the catch with nurgle is that your soul is bound to be a plaguebearer after you die

This only happens if you're struck down with Nurgle's Rot, and even then, only in the case of the most strong-willed individuals who managed to cling on despite the ravages of the plague.

As for the pain issue; it's both. Some of Nurgle's worshippers literally can't feel pain (or anything else, really) any more, but others still suffer but are so used to it that it doesn't bother them any more.

tunnel vision I guess. You only feel normal when you can kill something.
I imagine that is pretty hard to deal with, especially if you are stuck on a vessel during warp voyages going to the next planet after you killed everything on the planet you were on.

being constantly angry is gonna give you an ulcer too.

Heroic means the proportions are generally bigger compared to accurate right?
>>
>>51649311
>proportions are generally bigger compared to accurate
not sure what you mean.
Truescale is a naturalistic representation.
Heroic means it's an abstraction. Bigger heads, hands, feet and weapons. This makes gaming miniatures easily identifiable and read better from a table's distance away. Looks pretty hideous if you compare a truescale mini next to a heroic one.
GW also has the quirk of making the arms longer than they should be.
Usually an outstretched arm with the fingers straightened should end at about mid-tight. GW minis could touch their knees without bending over most of the time.

>So what actually happened to Biel-Tan?

Soulless and dead.

>Did the daemons do it or did the Ynnari do it?

Daemons entered the infinity Circuit and started killing the Craftworld. So solve the problem, the new character pulled crone sword in Ball-Tan the exploded the infinity circuit which banished the daemons and birthed the avatar of Ynnead.

>Did the daemons kill Yriel?

Daemon Prince of Nurgle smashes Yriel to death.

The new character lady uses Yriel's spear ro ress him and then she transforms the spear into a crone sword and takes it.

Actually from the sounds of it, though damaged, and bereft of an Infinity Circuit, the Craftworld itself is still mostly intact and the living population largely unharmed. Additionally within the book both Spiritseers and Biel-tan's warriors express the belief they can rebuild from the damage.

Though it will take decades or even centuries perhaps.

Not that it matters when functionally their enemies have more pressing concerns.

>>

>>51650072

Seems like missing an infinity circuit would be bad for a craftworld, since their seers won't be able to easily commune with ancestors, and the only thing protecting anyone from Slaanesh will be fragile soulstones. Though it won't matter to Exarchs since their armor doubles as mini infinity circuits anyway.
>>
>>51650092

What is black tide? A detachment or formation? I am intrigued
>>
>>51650089
Not that one should ever use TT for determining lore but, I just wanna say, most of the Croneswords seem really weak for Godly weapons
>>
>>51650110

Black Tide = space marines played as a horde army. Called Black Tide because Black Templars and Black Legion are quite good at it.
>>
>>51650086
It is shit so you are doing yourself a favor by never reading it.
>>
>>51650106
True, but they can rebuild it. Also Biel-tan has many Reborn now, meaning that their kin need not fear death regardless of whether they have a Soul Stone or not.
>>
>>51650128

I've got to try this, i've got 30 initiates and it would probably work since i play in the 600-1000pts range

Most special super weapons have always been kind of downplayed on the tabletop. I don't really mind that.

Sure, but biel-tan don't quit. They're not like those iyanden pansies.

>>51650095
Crusaders need a proper way to be used effectively. If you want shooting, Tacticals are better and can be used in Formations, same for Assaults and half-assing either is not worth it at all too.
Their characters also need some fixing. Helbrecht would be fine if he at least got an Orbital Strike, since his melee is nerfed because he's supposed to be a fleet admiral and not a combat monster.
Champion needs one more wound to be less glass cannon and be in line as "Specialized Captain with unique relic".
Grimaldus just needs to be able to join squads with his Servitors and maybe be like 10 points cheaper.

Chapter Tactics are pretty much useless. You can get anti-Psyker stuff like Adamantium Will or your own Psykers in every other army easily, Crusader is not a huge help since you mostly would want to use it to run the last bit into melee range, which you can't do after running anyway and only getting your melee bonus after your army gets half shot to death is terrible too.

>>51650110
Tide of Black Templars. Used to work back in the day when melee was worth anything and gunlines weren't as powerful but now you pretty much NEED to invest in transports to get close enough for melee, which then means you can't melee, unless you use Skyhammer, which is just broken itself.

You can give it a try, but Grimaldus+Servitors and Helbrecht are pretty much completely necessary to get anything done. Not being able to consolidate into the next combat also often means, if your Chapter Tactic triggers, that you instagib a squad, consolidate and stand in the open, ready to be shot to death next turn.

Yeah Ahriman somehow easily overpowering the Avatar of a God, Yvrainne and the Vizarch in seconds was weird considering how he achieved pretty much dick in Wrath of Magnus.
>>
>>51650335
Well yeah, he was fighting other space marines in wrath of fagnus.
>>
>>51650320
If Ahriman can casually throw a god's avatar into the warp why has he not done this to all his enemies ages ago?
>>
>>51650335
Dude, a flying thunder hammer to the side is no joke.
>>
>>51650333
trips of truth decide that cruddace is in fact the worst, though if he writes 8ed nids, expect all nid MCs to become T5 so that lasguns can kill them easily and S10 can insta death.
>>
>>51650348
So Ahriman cannot defeat Arjac Rockfist but can simultaneously defeat Yvrainne, the Yncarne and the Vizarch?

What is this Marine wank
>>
>>51650351
Because now he's not fucking around
>>
>>51650351
Because he usually isn't fighting in the webway that's literally inside of the warp?
>>
>>51650315
Do people not like Orks? I always thought they were a fun and popular faction. I just want them to get some love
>>
>>51650365
Yeah? Arjac's a big guy. The eldar are not big guys.
>>
>>51650372
So? Nowhere does it say he's stronger?

Besides doesn't fucking change that he casually defeated the Avatar of a Warp God and its two Warp empowered minions.

Seriously if Ahriman is that strong how has he not gotten into the Black Library yet by just poofing all his enemies into the Warp?
>>
>>51650365
Arjac didn't face Ahriman directly. While Ahriman was killing woofs, he got a surprised hit by a Arjac's thrown thunder hammer.
>>
>>51650398
Yeah but Ahriman still casually took out the Yncarne, the Avatar of a God, who had casually dispatched Greater Daemons already, along with Yvraine and the Vizarch.
>>
>>51650393
Because the Black Library guardians are too powerful and smart to fall for that trick.
>>
>>51650393
It doesn't make sense, it was dumb writing to force the whole 'I can bring your brothers back Ahriman' twist.

Its the sort of power wanking normally reserved for Loyalists. It was dumb.
>>
>>51650393
Isn't it implied that Tzeentch is like RIGHT THERE? He may have been directly empowered or some shit.
>>
>>51650424
The Black Library's guardians are stronger than the Avatar of Ynnead? I doubt it.

Besides Ahriman has never even gotten physically into the Black Library. I'm talking about all his enemies barring his way towards it in the Webway.

>>51650432
And if the book had bothered to say that and explain that I'd be perfectly happy with it.
>>
>>51650412
And he would have done the same to Arjac if he Arjac was caught in Ahriman's cursors. Arjac only managed to force Ahriman to teleport away through a flying thunder hammer to the side. I mean come on no one would have seen that happening. Who throws their thunder hammer?

Speaking about Tzeentch, it says that Tzeentch was behind the Eldar characters looking to them.

This raises two questions.

Why didn't Tzeentch grab them?
Why does looking at Tzeentch cause insanity for the Eldar? They aren't weak humans.
>>
>>51650522
The Warp is still a place of cosmic wierdness and such, its possible that their connection to Ynnead meant Tzeentch couldn't directly claim them at once.

Its the Warp so there could be all sorts of Metaphysical reasons for why he was limited the way he was.
>>
>>51650522
Because despite have more mental capacity than humans, Tzeentch is still a GOD, and the god of knowledge and stuff as well. I guarantee even an eldar mind is too weak to look directly upon the god of knowledge and change
>>
>>51650522
1. Because he was at the Eldar's back. He was supporting their scheme, as the Changer of Ways is ought to do.

2. Because it's fucking Tzeentch, any mortal is weak and insignificant compared to him in the Warp.
>>
Tzeentch is the most bullshit god. He's like a genie but some how worse. Why do people even worship this fuck.
>>
>>51650566
Because they're euphoric in their enlightenment.
>>
>>51650522
>Why does looking at Tzeentch cause insanity for the Eldar? They aren't weak humans.
Eldar are MORE susceptible to warp-fuckery destroying their minds because they are more psychically sensitive.
>>
>>51650566

Tzeentch worshipers desire knowledge and power. Tzeentch gives them what they desire, but manipulates them so that he gets knowledge and power too, controlling them whether they realize it or not.
>>
>>51650592
Always been a pity to me of the setting that despite there being the ability to have the Chaos God find expression through multiple races...we just get Chaos Humans endlessly.

How cool would a Farseer becoming a Daemon Prince of Tzeentch be? Maybe he did it so that his soul was saved from Slaanesh?

I like the lore and I'd want at least a few melee focused crusader squads. Is it doable?

He wants the reverse, to play Carcharodons using the World Eater rules.

Ironic considering it usually went the other way.

I can understand Abaddon, because SM might not be the masters of war on the tabletop, but in the fluff, regular joe SM are super powerful, and bigwig dudes like Abbadabba are going to rekt ur dudes

It's not as bad of an option as it seems. Compared to most marine lists, the only thing you really miss out on is Gladius.

The big thing I would say is just to not go full black tide with hordes of 16 dudes in crusaders or 20 footslogging. Maybe one or two, but those eat up points fast and really cut into your room for specialists and support units to actually get your dudes into melee with things they can kill.

Ahriman is GOAT if he can go toe to toe with Be'lakor then some faggy Eldar are no problem.

Wait so, is Ahriman secretly Loyalist? Seeing he wanted to bring his men back and all.
