- Tyranids
- Orks
- Chaos Space Marines
- Dark Eldar
- Assault
- Competitive play

There's no way to hide in close combat any more. Shooting units can happily deploy a screen of chaff to take initial charges, then regardless of if they're wiped, break, or just fall back, the meat of the army can mow the attacking units down.

Just think about this for a second. Space Marines are the golden goose for Gw. Without them, and their sales, GW would literally have ceased to exist already. (I'm not kidding, the numbers released during the Chapterhouse Studios lawsuit showed the tactical marine box outselling entire other armies).

For Games Workshop to literally risk killing the golden goose by alienating Space Marine players with the introduction of super space marines is actually a bit worrying. Either they are truly desperate or they have simply concluded that there is literally no limit to how much they can cuck their players, and they believe they can get a significant proportion of their playerbase to rebuy their entire SM armies in Numarines.

Now consider that it is in GW's financial interest to only produce new kits in plastic that will sell in large volumes, and you can foresee that they will probably minimize their investment into Xenos armies because they can make a far better return on investment on Numarine kits or Chaos Numarine kits than on re-doing any of the old Xenos armies.

You can expect GW to minimize their investment into new model kits for anything but the most popular armies and just update their rules and keep selling the old models instead. That's far cheaper for them since their rules staff is literally 5 college interns making minimum wage + Jervis now.

so do the new charge rules mean you get to move your charge distance even if you don't make it? Like, if I need to charge 7 and only roll 5, can I move 5 inches towards my target?

I'll reserve judgement until we see how the fight subphase works.

>>53004043
New models for the popular army. That doesn't eliminate the previous models.

>>53004151

So let's recap, if you play an assault army

you get shot until you are in charge range
get shot when you charge
get shot in combat by pistols
get shot on your opponents turn when they withdraw their engaged unit

all for a measly one turn of close combat attacks against the enemy.

Isn't new.

This is effectively not new, because it almost certainly replaces the extra melee attack for pistol + CC.

>get shot on your opponents turn when they withdraw their engaged unit

As opposed to getting shot on your opponents turn when the unit you charged are all dead or failed leadership from all dying.

>Fall back in the movement phase

>>53003431
Well finally. I mean GW themselves puked out the fluff that all smegmarines are recruited from all races and genders before being brainwashed and put into OC doughnutsteel armour. That they then proceeded to only make big, muscular, bland, whitewashed models for then was just pathethic. If stigmarines had troops in all the shapes and sizes of the warhammer world upon reveal I might have actually liked them a little.

>>
>>53003512
Grow up.
>>
>>53004298
okay, let me break it down for you even slower, since you need some remedial education

you get shot as you approach
you decide to charge and get shot
you charge into combat and get you one round of attacks since you go first
they attack back and also get to shoot with pistols

-----end turn-----

they withdraw from combat
the rest of their army shoots you

-----end turn-----

repeat

I have a feeling there won't be much "repeating" in that scenario, because your CC unit will be dead at this point.

That only happens in the models' own shooting phase, not YOUR assault phase.

At least at the start, they promised new rules and eventually a codex for every already existing army.

Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. Still, that's a lot of shooting for a single round of attacks. Hopefully they'll put in some kind of sweeping advance that actually rewards assaulting players for destroying a unit on the charge, because as is the withdrawal mechanic on punishes them for failing to do so.

If the unit you're in CC with withdrawls they aren't allowed to shoot anything. If they stay in CC so they can fire their pistols the rest of the army isn't allowed to fire at your unit.

>>53004297
Except the pistols in melee is new, its during the shooting phase and has the strength of your pistol, this could make Melta pistols really mean, or Flamer pistols. Rather then just one more attack.

As for getting shot when you charge, thats new in the sense you cant charge one unit with two other units and force the enemy to choose which they want to try to soften, now the unit getting charged gets rapid reload skills and can shoot at every charging unit, which is quite different. I assume the tau rule regarding overwatch will be removed.

I meant for fluff, it's not cool to me when someone creates a new pattern of weapon that's just better for no reason. As for the sketch, I know nothing about guns or bullpup design but based on the Steyr AUG the grip and the forward grip are too close together, maybe elongate it and have the magazine receiver further back and space out the grip and the forward grip. On a drawing level the sketch is fine for a concept.
>>
>>53004399
Consolidating into combat, perhaps?

>inb4 falling back means your unit can immediately charge something else, but not have attacks take place unit the assault phase

>could potentially make a big display by falling back unit after unit as your guys scream across the field, leaving cowering squads in their wake
>>
>>53004513
why would they ever not withdraw? Guard, Tau, some (D)Eldar, or any other gun line army will gain so much from being able to withdraw and there is no benefit to an assaulting army other than the withdrawing unit being unable to do anything else that turn, but since shooty armies suck in cc they weren't going to be doing anything in cc anyway.

Except you declare charging, overwatch is done in the charge phase once a charge is declared then you move. You declare all your charges at a same time. ( currently) So you cant really do either of the things you listed as effective strategies unless they change when you overwatch (charging before overwatch doesn't make sense because you may lose units to overwatch placing you out of range. )

Was not expecting the fan base reaction to go from "moderately optimistic" to "salty as fuck" so damn quickly. On the bright side the "Free online rules" aspect of the game means GW could realize this mistake and backpedal in edition 8.1.

>>
>>53004645
Holy shit I remember the shoop of that when the Guilliman model was released. Looks fucking brilliant.
>>
>>53004916

Why would they? AoS has been doing very well with even simpler rules than what they've previewed for 8th. Additionally (and I grant this is very anecdotal) but in the 3 events I've been to since they started previewing I've run into largely competitive players who are excited for the launch.
>>
>>53004916
I think its because people were expecting Falling Back into a gun line to replace Over watch as the method to punish charges
>>
>>53004916
There's no reason to be salty as fuck considering we haven't seen all the rules. Anyone whining is being an alarmist. Like they said, just knowing the assault info makes people concerned about assault armies taking a hit, but the info they're revealing tomorrow about the fight phase says stacking gunlines close together will be a horrible idea.
>>
>>53004857
Realize what site your on, also realize you've never seen a dindu play 40k. It's purposely priced to keep the trash out of it.

>>
>>53004964
Yes. I admit that was my idea. They claim tomorrow we will know something about the conga-line strategy, yet the charge aspect, as of now, it's not the best change i've seen.

>>
>>53004958
Why? I mean, it makes sense that a squad of people with guns would take shots at a squad of people charging at them with swords.
>>
>>53004978

A) How often has OW actually affected your game play? In the entire time I've played 7th I've had OW sway maybe a handful of games in any capacity.

B) They actually make charging easier because of the only needing to get within 1" rule - it is a fairly sizeable shift in probability for making charges, especially for shorter to mid range charges.

1/6 with 10 shots was enough to dick over a charge in 7th. Since almost every 5 man squad could puke at least 5 shots it was more than enough to screw you over at once in the game.
>>
>>53005078

Assuming the +1 attack from a pistol counting as an extra weapon is gone, it's a buff if you have pistols but no other combat weapon, or if your pistol is a lot better than your CC attack. Otherwise you're trading 1 attack in each player's turn for 1 shot in your turn.
>>
>>53005040
It also makes sense that a throw grenade might get blown off course by the wins and roll onto a more dense or loosely packed group of enemies, but they got rid of templates.

At the very least, they didn't need to allow for unlimited uses of Overwatch.

Now you could have 20 squads of 5 guardsmen charge into a squad with some flamers, and they'll suddenly turn into a whirling omnidirectional inferno with unlimited ammo

Don't do that and instead charge with a large enough or durable enough squad to absorb the OW and then finish your charges.

>>53005090

I guess its the difference in being good and being bad. A unit of 5 guys with 10 shots will kill 1 model sometimes. As long as you aren't making your charges by 1 model you're fine - just plan your charges and account for a casualty.
>>
>>53005110
Why
>>
>>53003900
The problem comes when everyone is marines, and nobody is xenos. Balance increases, but variety and interest plummets. If gw thought 40k could be marine vs marine and somehow be interesting enough to be followed for 30 years, they would have done so long ago.

Without the neglected "other armies" nobody would bother to play this shit.
>>
>>53004981
I've only had bad experiences with them. I live in Europe, mind you, and the bored sons of the neighborhood always came to the store acting like they were interested in the games but they were actually trying to steal magic cards and miniatures while screaming and putting their hands in their mouths.When the store manager eventually got pissed off the nigros were dropping their spawn at the store because "it had many toys" and they could spend the afternoon with "friends", but of course when told the situation they went all "dey dindu nuthing they little kids they be playin".

Another time, arabs were always coming to act tough when someone from the store went outside to smoke. I usually joined them because they were the old guys who told me about lore and they were nice with us, so shitskins coming to call everyone fat and telling them to give them cigarettes scared me.

Anon for that you need to survive two rounds of shooting assuming you went first, it was usually 3 rounds of shooting.

So those silly 1 model charges where needed for Melee armies that could not Alpha strike turn one or had some reliable way to get there without getting shot for 2-3 turns.

>>53005181

Reminds me of a more sensible version of Azrael's Combi-Plasma. Just replace the actual plasmagun part with a chainblade and you pretty much have your sketch.
As for whether it works, I'd say it's fluffy enough to not get you too bitched-out. Chain blades have been around since rogue trader and bullpup weapons do exist in-universe. Just fluff it like "the weapons are supplied by a near-by forgeworld, one known for their strange STC patterns" or something.

Charge with 30 slugga boyz, manage to kill 8 marines to 3 boyz deaths. Marines fall back in front of 5 devastators, everyone kills 15 more orks. 12 ork sluggas then gun down last 2 remaining marines, and charge devastators.

Nothing has said you cant shoot one thing then charge another. Would THIS balance it more?

Can't shoot the turn you fall back, if that's what you're implying.

You can, at least in this 7e. As long as the target you shot gets wiped, you can charge another one.

30k is full of elitists though, and if you even show up with plastic in your army they snub you and turn their noses up.

9 marine drop pods on turn one removing 3/4ths of your guard army in melee. "hur durr you should be meched up!" So adding deep strike charge should invalidate entire large playstyles. How about skitarii? You drop and cherry pick what you want to assault turn one, and I dont care how good their tanks are, they have already lost.

Or how about we play with objectives, except now your army cant go anywhere on the board because the fucking marines made a conga line of death, meanwhile their scouts run and sit on them all game.

Fuck your stupid ideas.

Incorrect, and I hope you haven't been cheating your friends. If at TRANSPORT gets shot by that unit, you may charge the contents. You cannot shoot a unit to death, then charge another unless your name is super heavy/gargantuan and you targeted another unit or things like crisis suits with splitfire.

To be fair, the shooting phase is pretty neutered too, so more of your men should at least make it to combat. Think about it;
Marines in a crater? 2+ save
Scouts in ruins? 2+ save
Guardsmen behind an aegis? 2+ save
Centurions in cover? 2+ save against Ap-2 battle cannons!

Luckily enough we seem to have a sub 20% autistic/numale population at our GW.
Couple people you feel bad for and a couple you just don't really want around you.

There's a misconception about the 40k community and it gets lumped in with trading card games and other super beta communities.
Over a couple decades of wargames, majority of people I've met are pretty head on straight, normal lifestyles, (GFs, kids, wives, friends etc.).
It's like GW has the least clue about their user base out of everyone. There's not even room for fat people in the local GW here. Those living planets they have in the community picture would get stuck between the tables and the wall displays.

GW is trying to appeal to the Tumblr lefty progressive audience that literally almost never buys their shit. That's why the fat landwhales are paired with the white men while the black kid gets the thin and vaguely attractive blonde white girl. Wanna scream racism? Fine, why are there no black women at all?

All it does is signal that there's a guy willing to go full /pol/.

Assuming an 8" movement with you starting at 24", you could end up moving i, advancing 6, and running 12 for a total of 26 inches.

Granted, that's not very likely unless you have some bonus to run or charge moves.

Even if you run only 3 inches though and end up 13 away so you can't even try a charge, that puts you at 19 for the next turn when they fall back, meaning that you need a total of 11 for your d6 advance and 2d6 charge.

And that's not accounting that you need 1 less inch than normal.

It shouldn't take you more than 2 turns to close the gap in this case.

No they didn't, you utter retard.
GW put some pictures of a black guy and white girl playing 40k. That's not advocating for them to breed, that's not saying "we should let in migrants and go full sweden," that's not saying "fuck trump and fuck white people," that's not advocating for the Kalergi plan, it's not saying "remember the 6 gorrilion goy."

It's a company trying to get more money from more people, not the eternal anglo trying to kill the aryan. As it stands, you retarded newfag, niggers are living in """white"""" countries like America >implying 60% is white .
Because of that being true for the forseeable future, GW wants there money. So GW includes some piecemeal stuff every so often to try and get that money.
And then you, like the r/the_donald newfag you are, get triggered to high heaven and make a fool of yourself, shitpost everywhere and make people dislike /pol/ (and who can blame them with fags like you) making everyone disdain the idea of being redpilled, thus actually doing the jews work for them.

If they had dropped overwatch and made the charge m+d6, I think GW would have had it nailed. Under that system, even a turn 1 charge wouldn't spell doom for a shooty army because they could fall back and shoot, or hold the line and tarpit while the army shoots something else. Without the fallback mechanic the game is quite binary: either the shooty player is having fun shooting or the stabby player is having fun stabbing. With the fallback, shooters still get to shoot and stabbers stab. But then they kept the overwatch and unreliable charge distance from 7th, and the only reason those were needed in the first place was the lack of options for the shooty player after CQC began. The new system would work fine on its own, and they need to drop the superfluous relics
>>
What I find the most amusing about that picture with the white girl and black dude is that the black guy has a hilarious johnny bravo-tier flattop. Dude looks like a Ghetto Guile.

Every fucking meme is a forced meme.

Furthermore, there are way more aspects of it that are humorous than just the fucking racial bias.

All one has to do is to use their brain to realize that these stock photos are completely new and were taken for this launch announcement. They didn't just "have" these stock photos, they intentionally took them.

Oh please, don't kid yourself. JIDF never conducted operations on the scale of CTR and ShareBlue, they only ever raided /b/, /k/ and /pol/, mainly because the rest of the site was too scary for them. Furthermore, their idea was to push pro-Zionist propaganda and deface nazism and islam. Literally none of that has anything to do with large scale psy-ops to completely shun an entire political ideology using buzzword and boogeyman tactics.

Ah yes, everyone who's constantly finding new things to laugh at in that one stock photo wants to this thread to die.

It's funny how there's always new people coming in and pointing something stupid out in that hilariously bad stock photo, and then you have this other group standing at the sidelines screaming REEEEEEEEEEEEE STOP FUCKING MAKING MEMES

Like hell, I never noticed pic related had a spectral red paint thanks to the jpeg compression on the site, and when someone here pointed it out I found it hilariously because it just added on more to the already hilariously bad stock photo.

Notice how you're still sperging about /pol/ and taking everything goddamn seriously while I find countless examples of why this goddamn meme is funny.

Grow up.

I was the same way. I was incredibly optimistic and now I'm overcome with doubt about combat. The one thing I found to be the most obnoxious and fun ruining is still in the game totally unchanged.

Well, we know that all currently sold models will be supported, so we're not losing direct support. It's possible some will be rolled together, though (AdMech and Skitarii, for example). I don't think we've been given an official faction list. There are factions on the new site, but it was confirmed those listings were fluff and not representative of how they'd be divided in the game.

Guys, shush with your politics. We're here to talk about little plastic models.

Now, I'm a bit confused with all these news. I play SM (carcharodons but their rules will probably change a wee bit), will my Assault marines be better off, or worse? What's all that jazz with Overwatch? Or is simply that we don't have enough info yet and 3 autists are just blowing their fuses as usual?

>>53007544
Today was a difficult day for assault. Overwatch is still in, and a unit can now perform multiple Overwatches per turn.

>>53007544
We learned about charging today, and that news wasn't great for assaulters (We learned that charge is still 2d6", overwatch is still a thing, and a single unit can overwatch more than once if multiple units try to charge it), with the very mild buff that CQC is now within 1" instead of base-contact. Tomorrow we get the fight phase, at which point we should be able to make some better conclusions about how valid assault will be in 8e.
>>
>>53007544
I think dedicated assault armies are going to be better off. If you can hit the enemy line with several units they can't back out as easily and if they do you just charge again because they won't be able to shoot.
>>
>>53007544
We have a few infos, since every day they post a new article about 8th edition on the Warhammer Community site
It's just that today, in the article about the charge phase, there were changes that are in favor of shooty armies

However this article don't address all the rules, nor they explain them precisely, and tomorrow we'll get the news about the fighting phase, so we don't actually know how everything will end up when 8th edition actually hit the shelves

It's supposed to make getting your charge off easier, not enable you to charge further. Saying you can't charge from beyond 12" when you can theoretically roll 13" is very much a conscious decision by GW.

My big hope is assaulting out of transports. I had a lot of hope for Shotgun Vets, Rough Riders, Straken and Bullgryn for 8th, but I'm worried now that people can leave assault and that Overwatch is still in play, they might still be not worth it. Fingers crossed tomorrows news about combat is good, otherwise they still might be meh units that are only taken for very casual games.

Apparently formations are still there, but we don't know if still the same or toned down/strengthened, and apparently they are going to cost additional points (after what you already spent for the units and upgrades)

And I don't think there has been much herohammer in the last two editions of the game. Maybe Tau with their buffmander and some psykers to cast buffs to various units, but the generally the things that were to be feared were elite/heavy support/lord of war units

who else is excited for the list builder app for 8th that will be updated faster than BS though?

how do guardfags do blobguard? I'm getting enough guardsmen to start playing around with it
right now I'm looking at trying to do something like 3 full plats with auto canons in each squad and maxed out conscripts with priests, add some 2 squads of 2 wyverns in the back and 2 command squads for orders, but even at 2000 that doesn't give you much else to work with and i feel like theres not enough punch to make it work, and not very survivable unless i sneak in some psyker support
>>
Also, Blood Angels got buffed in another way, our pistol variants can be used when regular flamers and meltaguns can't.
>>
>>53008275
nigga id pay $30s for a solid list builder with few glitches and no adds that updated regularly
>>
>>53008275
We can probably expect something along the lines of what they made for AoS. Which, IIRC, is free but has certain data sheets locked by default? You can download and check it out.
>>
>>53008286
You take a infantry platoon, you take the min 2 infantry squad and platoon command squd. Put the command squad in a chimera, but the 2 infantry squads on objectives in your deployament.
Then you actually unlocked all the blob shit
Conscripts with 1-2 priests is god-like, they can kill anything, reroll to hit to wound or amour saves with war hymns or smash. You can also take heavy weapons teams, autocannons are a safe choice. I run missile launches cuz I like them though.

Conscripts with priest are durable as hell, and if they die you only lost like 150 points for 50 bodies, everything else like weapon teams should be in cover and theyll survive long enough to make back their points.

Though the most important thing is 8th is coming out in a month or two so wait for them, for now buy cool stuff you like and paint it.

Cheap means low model count, for the most part. You want a faction with fewer but stronger things, while simultaneously having those things not be too fancy/large.

I think Grey Knights or Custodes might fit the bill?

>>53008348
well I'm just buying more guardsmen because i played parking lot all of 7th so i *only* have about 80 guardsmen models, and you never can get too many of those no matter what the edition

so conscripts over blobbing up infantry? how about psykers to potentially give rending of 4++ saves or is that too much of an investment?
>>
>>53008368
Custodes are like 260pts per troops unit of 5 vanilla
>>
>>53008416
Just get Traitor Legions, includes all the rules and formations for TS and some lore stuff about them.
>>
>>53008466
You can blob infantry platoons but conscripts can do it better because theyre dirt cheap. WS2 doesnt mean much as in most cases youll hit on 4's and worst case you hit on 5s in CC, however a good tactic if you really dont want to do conscripts is just fill out on infantry squads and give every seargant a power axe, throw in 2 psykers and 2 priests. You can potentially for about 500 or so points get 55 guardsmen, 11 power axes (s4 ap2 unwieldy hits) with 2 priests for war hymns and zealot (reroll to wound, hit, or armours saves) and pyskers for their shenanigans.
Dont forget to throw a grenade when you charge!

I used to run to use fw Heavy Artilery Carriages for the big guns, you might not like FW for whatvere reason but regardless, although Wyverns are godly, if you have 150 lasguns on the table you probably want your heavy support to be big thing killers.

I appreciate the help guys, been following 40k in a general sense since DoW, new edition is encouraging me to start a small army.
>>
>>53008562
yeah I've done that before to limited success, usually most of the squad doesn't get there but the point is to meatshield for the axes

oh also how do you keep your priests from getting challenged out and killed in the first combat?
>>
>>53008648
Wait, 3 full plats including conscripts is 300 lasguns.
>>
>>53003806
So how much shooting did you just use on a single assault unit while the rest of my army apparently continues to act unhindered? And it's going to be real hard to pull that trick off when multiple units in your line are getting charged at once.
>>
>>53008655
The enemy can issue a challenge. You can either:
A) Refuse the challenge, and your priest goes without killing anything for a round
B) Accept the challenge...with a Sargent, if your in an infantry squad. This is the big advantage of infantry blobs over conscripts.

I've got six laser rapiers, might use those for 2 units of cover ignoring ap1 lascanons

also heres the vet-mech guard I'm running in a tourney this weekend, the tourney is "classic" with no LoW, no FW, formations, supplements or fortifications allowed, most of the missions are end of game objective grabbing, possibly the last tourney of this edition so i wanna try and go for gold, trust me this tourney is full of cheesefags so it would be hard to be WAAC-faggy even with 2x2 wyverns

any advice on how i can blow more leaves? also idk why people don't do weapons teams, they seem way more economic than blobbing guard squads, especially once you have enough meat shields

I'll try to come up with some mechanical downside to converting a bolter to bullpup that doesn't impede the Assault Marines that much. In my chapter they basically jump around the battlefield, either flanking entrenched enemy positions or harrying infantry into prepared kill zones where Devastators are waiting.

>>53005285
I know, I've seen that pic. But I didn't copy it, because that bolter looks even longer than a normal one. While I was going for something more compact. I actually drew a normal bolter first then kept the bullpup sketch in the same box size/dimensions.

>>53005397
Same goes for this pic, this is just a bolter with a weird stock and magazine moved backwards in an impossible way.
Seeing how a bolter seems to be just a boltgun with a longer receiver, I'm pretty sure a bullpup bolter has more than enough place in it for the chainsword motor. So I'd say my sketch is mechanically sound, if one assumes the normal bolter makes sense.

>>53008785
White primer is easier to paint light colors over than a dark primer. Darker paints are just as easy either way for the most part.
White-primed models will generally also end up much lighter colored in general than models primed in a dark color.
It's up to taste and context which color of primer is better imo. What are you painting?
