>The ultramarines seem to have about 20 dreads, two to each company. If that's the case,
All chapters have further dreadnoughts/caskets in storage, either empty and awaiting acceptable pilots, or in stasis as a way of giving their greatest veterans some reprieve from constant fighting/the pain of being horribly mutilated and shoved in a robot suit.

The ultramarines, being a first founding legion, probably have hundreds of dreadnoughts available to them. They just don't break them out for every fight.

Repost purely because I was the last post of last thread:

The variety of Dreadnoughts kinda baffles me in the face of the 1 million space marines in the Galaxy figure. I mean, some of the other sheer variance of equipment is also baffling, but I guess chapters can be overequipped and change gear between campaigns, so let's focus on the dreads.

The ultramarines seem to have about 20 dreads, two to each company. If that's the case, and they're a super well equipped first founding chapter, then it follows that there are -at most- 20,000 dreads in existence, likely far less.

So I mean, how many of those are Contemptors? How many are the even smaller subset who are Leviathans or Deredeos? Is it remotely reasonable for some 20th founding nobodies to have non-boxy dreads?

I run an all-dreadnoughts, drop pods and occasionally support tanks 2000 point list. How special snowflake is my chapter?


>>51966057

Okay if you're right, then I wanna see fluff where a chapter dread-rushes someone attacking their homeworld. Just unleashes a wave of Dreadnoughts in a surprise assault.

Would I be better off going for Necrons, Ad Mech, Tau, Orks, or Eldar for a vehicle/tank heavy force?

Skitarii seems like a weaker option there due to only having 3 different walkers. Necrons are a bit better with lots of skimmers and chariots. Tau are appealing for having a Tank Ace, and Eldar seem to already have a canon crafters with that theme. The main thing Orks bring to the table is variety.

As a side note, is there any reason Eldar don't use robots or automatons in their armies? I know they have wraithguard, but those are more like Dreadnoughts since they have a dead pilot.

>>51966335
>Or have them liberate it from some Chaos scum.
That sounds like a good idea. The Dreadnought in case was fighting with his chapter litterallyjustmadeitup on the world of whatsitsname. [Your dudes] came by and helped driving the enemy off planet, but the Dreadnoughts chapter was all but destroyed. Being nice, helpful guys, your dudes take the Dreadnought with you (and maybe some spare transports, weaponry, and geneseed) to help him get revenge on whoever was the enemy and honour his chapter.
>>
>>51965380
> Alpha Legion might be either closet loyalists,
from their actaions in the heresy its VERY possible that half the legion fell, whilst the other half stayed lloyal. by the 41st mellenia they are a fractious bunch of individual cells, some of which are closet loylaists, some are totally for chaos, some just dont care anymore, and some are a mix of the above. There main dig is being a secrative bunch of plotters, so its basically impossible to know what the brothers orginally wanted for their legion. Personally, i like the oidea that alpharius was the traitorus one, and omegon stayed loyal, but thats just me.
>>
>>51966377
>is there any reason Eldar don't use robots or automatons in their armies?
Using robots to war and work lead to the decadent lifestyle that brought the fall, so they dropped it.

Your analysis is pretty spot on, personally I play Ork exactly because of variety and possibility of looting.

why bother using machines when you have advanced material you can grow that reacts psychically beyond what mere metal can do? the wraithlord can dance and leap across a battlefield. it's probably more to due with their reliance on psychic stuff but i could see the amish elves using robots

I guess those are decent reasons. Still, it feels like throwing out a couple of automatic sentry turrets to blast away with scatter lasers to hold a line would be simpler than tricking some humans into doing it or using civilians as guardians.

That aside, the main reason I ask was to come up with more stuff that fit well with that sort of machine theme that would be going on with a vehicle heavy Eldar force.

Hello again /40kg/,

Yesterday I asked you guys about running a mono-god army, and the general response was that I should either go with Daemokin or one of the traitor legions. I did some more research and the Death Guard look cool, so I think that's where I'll start (and eventually I'll pick up some Nurgle Daemons as well).

My question: what's the best way to start with a Death Guard army? Should I get generic CSM and paint them green, or should I go with Plague Marines, or something else? I've never done this before so ease of painting is moderately important to me as well.
>>
>>51967202
DG are so good literally anything works. Their decurion is good: for that you need a warband, which is (min) 2 units of marines, 1 unit of either chosen or termintors (termintors are best small with cimbi-meltas), 1 or ratirs or warbikes (DG bikes are fucking crazy) and 1 helbrute or unit of havoks

last but not least you need a chaos lord, ideally on a bike
>>
>>51967162
All the local stores do it in San Antonio, but they enforce a "don't eat where you play" policy pretty stringently
>>
>>51966912
Well, either way, I'll probably be looking towards alternatives to showing off their love for machines.
>>
>>51967050

>These pilots are rare and unusual warriors who were each born a twin. The psychic link between an Eldar and his twin is like no other, and this bond allows them to sense the proximity, mood, and even thoughts of their counterpart. If the twin were to die, the surviving brother or sister will often fade away in sympathy. Sometimes, when such a division takes place, the surviving twin will sacrifice what is left of his life to pilot a Wraithknight. The essence of the dead twin is transferred into a Spirit Stone attached to the machine, whilst the surviving sibling is put into a near-permanent trance within his cockpit. The clarity of thought provided by the living twin ensures that the construct moves with the speed typical of a living Eldar, while the psychic link of the departed sibling allows him to commune with the animating forces of his twin, but also spirits of former pilots of the construct. The great measure of control afforded by this mind gives the pilot mastery over the Wraithknights psychically-powered weapons systems and an acrobatic grace that seemingly defies its size.
The wraithknight is so big the ghost needs the help of the living pilot to function.

So last time I played 40k was 3rd Edition. That was probably 18 years ago.
The last few years I started to play board games again, my wife got me Shadows of Brimstone for birthday and that was the point where I got sucked into tabletops again. Recently I got Burning of Prospero and it pulled me in again. I'd be interested in starting 40k again and those new Thousand Sons are really hot. I picked up some of those Scarab Terminators and wondered how to move from there. What I gathered from googling: Pure Thousand Sons are pretty hard to play at the moment.

Although your argument doesn't really make sense, as it could have made sense to have more of an undivided prince (yes I know there is no such thing) first, and then seperate down the different gods.
Your logic is that they are better off selling to one of four gods, rather than a Primarch that works for all.
Also Forge World brought out Lorgar early to great success.

What normal list has a third of its points invested into a single unit? The Tigershark's more expensive than a fully-geared Riptide Wing, and that comes with three models that can actually start the game on the board.

The Tiger Shark doesn't seem like a model that you can just shove onto the board willy-nilly. I figured it needed the right kind of support.

It's a mary sue author self-insert. His thing, which in old lore was normal, is now his only thing that only he has and no one else. He literally came out of nowhere and yet instantly became the best to have ever been, the only one to have played and fooled all of the four chaos gods at the same time, and he not only won but keeps being extremely influential and powerful.

Cut to Warhammer fantasy where it was revealed he was Archaon's dad, thus annihilating Archaon's character and purpose even as a story device. Remember when he was the living proof that as bad as Chaos is, at least in Chaos you get high only if you deserve it, and gods only reward those that are willing to risk and give their all, including their lives? Well fuck that! He was just a daddy's boy all along! And got played until the end! Yes, because the whole End Times shit was in Be'lakor's master plan all along and, like EVERY SINGLE FUCKING TIME, it all went exactly as he wanted and he won everything.

Also he contradicts previous lore without the latter having been retconned by any other source, including the newer one, see Fulgrim and his apparent return. He's just a single shitty writer's pet that got stuck in the lore because there's zero quality check, who not only doesn't add anything to the setting but actively detracts from it.

>>51969751
That doesn't contradict any previous lore and can be justified with propaganda and unreliable narrators.

Be'lakor's circus of bullshit is set in stone to be as objective as possible.

It's a relic of one of the shittiest times in GW history and I so want the new lore to contradict it because he was a fucking mistake.

Your point:
>Grey Knights are "THE PUREST SPACE MARINES EVAR!!"
>Grey Knights were introduced as Daemonhunters. It would make sense to make your anti-daemon army resistant to daemon temptations.
>If I recall old Daemonhunter fluff they'd carve runes in their own bones that if a Daemon ever took over / they fell. The runes would activate and kill them

Night Lords maybe? Take a Murder Talon with Raptor Talons core and Lost and the Damned Aux? The Raptors all have stealth and reroll charges plus you don't HAVE to Deepstrike them, and T1 Night Fighting helps the cultists. If you need ObSec, you can ally in a CAD for some Raptor Troops and a Sorcerer or something, or even just run a CAD with a ton of Raptors and just take LatD as a solo formation. You could also run a Hellcult and go for the Hellbrute cusltist spam.

Silent King has a hard-on hatred for the Tyranids. And Tau are in the way of the Tyranid invasion.

Going to be an enemy of my enemy kind of deal. Orks are coming because they saw the aftermath of Octarius Sector and looking to find their own Hive Fleet for a proper fight. They (of course) get overwhelmed

Silent King saves them and brings them all to a meeting to join forces.

>CAD = combined arms detachment
This is your basic 2 troop and 1 hq. The benefit here is your troop choices have ObSec

>ObSec = Objective Secured
All units can hold objectives, but only units with ObSec can contest other units with ObSec. That means if you have a troop on a point, they have to kill it or have another troop to get you off of it.

No, the detachment or formation has to specifically state that it gives ObjSec.
>>
>>51970834

If Genestealers can steal themselves Sentinels, Chimeras, and Leman Russ, it's likely they can get some Tauros to serve as Technicals. Honestly, if they got a Technical kit of their own it would be perfect, but currently the Goliath serves the Light Vehicle role well enough that they don't really need it unless they want something fast, but with all that infiltrating they don't exactly need speed.

So I'm fairly new, recently bought a skitarii start collecting and have been wondering about how to run my infantry.
Would it be advisable to run a squad of 5 rangers with 4x galvanic and an arquebus as well as a squad of 5 vanguards with arc weapons?
I figure this way I can easily upgrade to 10 man squads with another box and expand the weaponry, seeing as how the start collecting only contains one of each special weapon.

Nothing special. Last year I was on a Sabaton kick and a imperial guard battle report came up in my recommended videos. I was sort of familiar with 40k (I knew it was super expensive and it was all set in an 80s metal album cover) so I looked a bit further into it and the guard with all their heroic last stands and desperate siege defences had me hooked. Fast forward to now and I've spent over a thousand dollars on little men and plastic tanks
