Warhammer 40,000 general /40kg/

Post your work, armies, projects.

30 marines to paint for the summer while traveling (so limited paint supplies that I can take with me). Just need to airbrush the basecoat and I"ll be good to go.

>>53084834
they already said the five books are Impreium, Chaos, Eldar, Orks/Necrons/Tau, Tyranids

stop forcing this ultrasmurf deathguard meme you faggot

>>53084837
Lovely work. A bit too clean for my taste as I always like some weathering, especially on vehicles, but I can see why you'd want a clean fikish on an Inquisiton transport.

The Order of That Time of the Month?

I want my Skitarii to be a drop army, like the Elysians. I can't think of any bits that would look good on my Dragoon squad so I thought of something else.

How about Dragoons with a warp drive kinda deal? The Dragoons are transported to battlefields by literally battling through hell to arrive through a tear in reality and spear some fucking Heretics while a billion tin men fall from the sky and force some radiotherapy on you.

>>53084915
Yah I asked a friend to do the base paint with an airbrush and the fucker got way too happy with it and did some other things.

I'm currently working on some teeth on the nose and adding an old SoB model on the back so when the hatch opens there is a bolter bitch shooting

I'm not sure I like these new Felinid superheavies GW's selling.

>Lord of War: Mr. Whiskers
M: infinity W: Lots A: Random Ld: None Sv. -8+ WS: 1+ BS: -

Special Rules:
No leader: Mr. Whiskers bows to now man and gives no fucks even for the rules of the game. Neither player controls Mr. Whiskers.
No Caring: Deploy Mr. Whiskers in reserves and roll as normal. When he arrives, place him on the table and let him wonder it has he pleases.
No Mercy: If Mr. Whiskers sniffs a model, that model's unit takes a 5+D6 leadership check. If he swipes or taps a model the unit takes a number of S10 AP-5 hits equal to the number of units touched. If Mr. Whiskers tries to bite or lay down on a model it is eliminated from play.
No Obligations: When Mr. Whiskers jumps off the table, he does not enter ongoing reserves and is effectively removed from the game. However, no killpoints are ever awarded for the loss of Mr. Whiskers.

Those sound good.

Right now I have two main symbols, wings and the cross from the BT (Malta Cross if I recall) and bouncing back and forward with a rose or a heart.

I'm working to add as relics to go on top of an Immolator some old metal wings from Pegasus as some old saint relic.

I also use picture related as demon prince when I run silly lists. Since generic living Saint are not a thing

Anyone got the epub or pdf for carrion throne? I'd greatly appreciate it, can't afford to buy books atm.

Well, they'd hop through the Warp more than fight through it, but otherwise sounds cool. Stick a Lucian icon on the engines, show they've got similar tech to the Legio Astorum Warp Runners.

How are you doing the drop-assault? Counts-as Scions or D-99? Might be fun to add in some Flamer drop squads. I know in 30k you can drop Secutarii in with Arvus Lighters and more or less automatically gib a Baneblade or Spartan with 12 BS5 Cognis Haywire shots, which is an excellent cheesy tactic for telling deathstars to fuck off, but we can't do that here.

Sadly, no. I was going to paint last night, but I forgot to prep more sheets for my wet pallet. I still have no idea how I'm going to paint the flesh, though.

Assuming it's broadly similar, how picky will people be about WYSIWYG with equipment?
Putting together a wych cult kill team for SWA, and hopefully they'll be useful in 8th, but I'm worried the weapons will be all over the place for the table top.

I remember looking this up 3 years ago when I got them and thinking it was way too much work for me when I fuck up assembling balsa wood planes. Also expensive.

You're delusional if you think that six flyrants: the list isn't getting nerfed. There will be two entries in the Nid dex:

HQ: Hive Tyrant, no option to purchase wings
Flyer: Flying Tyrant, has wings.

>>53085586
You want to get into 40k then do it. Unless you want to be a tourney player then just do what you want and worry about specifics later.

>>53085570
>warhammer40000.com
I keep forgetting that site exists.

Looking over it now though, it looks like we can expect CSMs to get a soft, trademark-friendly rebranding as "Heretic Astartes". I guess it fits, but it doesn't sound as weighty as "Traitor Astartes".

>>53085653
You've got to get some fleurs-de-lis or decoration on them somewhere. They don't look nearly loyal enough.

>>53085650
You can get like 20 magnets for 5 euros (at least where I live, which happens to be one of the most expensive countries in EU). If you want make it easy just slap the magnet to the arm/shoulder and on the gun and be done with it. If you want to put the extra effort on it you can carve the arms/guns to fit the magnet inside it.

>>53085538
I think it's a sensible move. I don't see why flyers have to compete with other fast-attack choices for slots.

That said I kinda want the hydra and similar AA batteries to go in the Flyer slot. That way I wouldn't feel like I'm wasting Heavy/Fast slots on flyers that may or may not exist.

>So will all fighters get +1 BS, or just a special rule that lets them move and fire at full BS? I think the former is the better choice just for one less special rule, but then you figure in hovering...

>>53084910
Why are orks with Necrons and Tau? I feel like the horde Xenos should be grouped.

>>53085763
There was this leak or something that said most of the flyer weapons would be assault version of any heavy weapons with reduced range.

>>53085108
Anon. I might be being a retard here but are you using just standard Castellan Green for your vehicles?

They are not entirely SoB, mostly using their rules to represent an Inquisitor personal army. They are missing more paint on the face so they don't look animic and some golden details, because gold is the best colour.

The vehicles are going to have more SoB and Imperial imagery. Planning to add some chained wings on some of the transports, the Penitent Engines or on their own base and use them as AoS markers

Why is she wearing her bolt pistol on the hip that she'd use if she was drawing with the power fist?

REEEEEEEE

how common is it for daemons of different chaos gods working together if not called upon by mortal cultists? Also, are the chaos gods just super powerful daemons, or are they something separate from the rest of the daemonic populous?

>>53085809
>>53085852

It's not Castellan Green, but it's close. I wanted to go FULL SHERMAN and grabbed some Tamiya XF-62, said to be as close to proper Wartime olive Drab as possible. I also wanted to try at least one competitor to GW paint and BOY do I regret it. Hand-painting that stuff without getting brush marks everywhere is much more difficult than the thicker GW product.

Do yourself a favor: if you want to play the hand-brush game, go Castellon green and don't look back.

I'm also less and less satisfied with this picture. The lighting is all wrong and the phone camera is captial-S shit.

>>53085879
They can defeat any foe...except the sun OH GOD HELP WE NEED SPF50!

>>53085896
Daemons will work with eachother during invasions. After that they kill eachother and try to decide who's the real winner.

The Chaos Gods are actually gods.

>>53085928
Thanks Anon. I have been looking for inspiration for my guard and do have a soft spot for SPACE SHERMANS and love the look of yours.

May I ask what colour the guardsmens fatigues are?

>>53085896
Chaos Gods can work together to dick someone over. Once that someone has been dick over, they usually will fight each other

>>53085530

Faces are mostly about getting the shading right I think, but I've only had moderate success with them. However, I've only done flesh tone flesh, not pallid greys.

How good do you guys think Command Points will be? I'm excited, because if they are good, it'll be so easy to have a shitload for muh Orkz

What do you guys think of the rumor GW will just fuck with everyone and release 8e rules tomorrow?

>>53085970
The Fatigues are Death World Forest. One of GW's most reliable paint colors, I find.

And the circular symbols are from the Iron Hands Transfer sheet courtesy of FW.

>I feel like the horde xenos should be grouped

no go fuck yourself

They're not like, grouped as in "they're friends" it's just easy ways to divide all the races

Orks/Tau/Necrons are all too individualized so they can't buddy up with anyone, Eldar/DarkEldar/Harlequins/Ynnari make for a perfect book

Even 'Nids and GSC are technically different armies, while bros

It's not so much as "Orks are with Necrons and Tau", it's more like the teacher pairing students up into groups for a project together

I'm retarded it was for him >>53086076

they're pretty shit

you can only use one per phase, bid with them for turn 1, some of the effects sound pretty lack luster, activate ONE unit during the charge phase, like ggggg

>>53086101
but then how come its not Blood Angels and Necrons they actually do projects together

Do we know yet if Command points will be faction specific or generic or a mix of both?

Giving faction based command point bonuses would be an easy way to add "unique FOCs" without actually adding FOCs in the codices.

>>53086101
I knw they;re not allied. Jees man you need to cool it! I just figured if you're going to group up the Xenos Codices you might as well put hordes with hordes and empires with empires. Plus, why give tyranids their own dex and then stuff 3 other xenos factions in another?

Ahahahah how the fuck is the xeno alliance even real? Like they are all so incompatable nigger ahahaha.

I can confirm. I ordered a bunch of magnets from ebay and most of the ones I bought were 200 for a few dollars. If you go china, you're paying close to a penny per magnet he most expensive ones I bought were 1x1mm which was $10 for 50, but I don't have to use them as much as my 2x1mm.

Pic related is some of my fucking around with magnets while building my NL. I didn't think I'd have as much fun as I did, and it wasn't that hard at all.

>>53086418
look at the aos books

death is like ten pages

>>53086379
I'm sure it'll be like the psychic rules, everyone knows a few generic ones while also having unique stuff specific to them

>>53086426
From an Imperial perspective, xenos are all just The Enemy Without™, and the lore has always been extremely Imperium-centric. Probably GW's rationale behind making Xenos a single "alliance".

>>53086459
Speaking of generic and specific stuff, I sure hope we get a glimpse at how Warlord rules will look like. Hopefully no more random ones.

Why are nids so cute?

>>53086493
Didn't they say you'd be able to choose warlord traits so they behave the same every match?

>Unpopular 40k opinions
Am I the only person that wishes the Orks were just removed from the setting completely? They're just ridiculous and add absolutely nothing. I know they're meant to be there for comic effect but it detracts from the lore and feel of 40k completely.

>>53086566

Space Marines are legitimately the best faction and consistently display the widest range of characters, and have the best examples of GWs abilities to make models and write lore.

it's a satire setting, dude. Every other faction is just as jokey as Orks are.

>>53086597

Orks are unironically the heart of 40k. I don't even play them, but they exemplify all the best parts of 40k as a universe. Without them, 40k would take itself far too seriously, and that's no good.

So let me see if I understand this correctly. Assuming in 8th edition, if orks are ld 7 or even 8 for bosses, and I am running 30 orks in a squad, 15 of them get shot to death that turn, I then lose a guaranteed 8 +D6 MORE at the end?

So if they sperg out and the ork book comes out, and they leave in green tide, I lose 40 orks due to eating all the enemy firepower that turn, then at the end I am losing another 33 +D6 orks??! ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?

Orks need to be at the center of another big story like they were in Armageddon. Preferably this time they can have a leader other than Ghazzy. Not that he isn't the shit, but it's nice to see a faction have more than one really important character.

>>53086630

If you don't think an entire army of football hooligans with OH WHAT A DAY, WHAT A LOVELY DAY-tier ramshackle post-apocalyptic looted vehicles isn't the tightest shit, I don't know what to tell you.

They're way cooler and more original than Tau or Eldar, that's for sure.

>>53086947
You're correct. Age of Sigm- I mean 8th edition is going to be a fun and balanced ruleset!

>>53086947

You're right anon, none of the playtesters or designers thought of this, there surely won't be any abilities for Orks to mitigate battleshock like there are in Age of Sigmar.

>>53086947
That's a lot of assuming there. Our ld will be lower (assuming since spess mehrines dropped), but you're ignoring the fact that bosspoles will likely buff it, then there is another rule from AoS that will likely follow where ld goes up by 1 per 10 models in the unit. Then there's the myriad possibilities for special rules. I wouldn't worry too much about green tide, especially since we're gonna actually roll armor saves now

We probably won't get the literal one giant mob green tide, what we'll probably get is a FOC with a shit load of troop slots, and some kind of rule where having the boyz close to each other buffs them in some way based on how many are nearby. At least that's what would make sense to me

Well, that is the joke. There the serious hard-scifi guys who make fun of the setting by putting it in context. The problem is people who don't get the jokes.

The Tau is set up as a straight man to the galaxy's antics. They think they're in a normal sci-fi setting, but everything works like space fantasy instead.

That's why they'll send out a massive generational colony ship with hope in their eyes, only to have it rocketing back to them shortly later full of Orks and covered in guns

I like the model, but that thing was made during a time when the people at GW totally forgot what made 40k 40k and what made Tau the Tau.

Battlesuit ok. Knight size suits is something the Mechanicus would do not the Tau.

That model outside of 40k is pretty rad on itself

>>53087516
If you know the part about the quarantine, then you know the sauce I'm referring too. Between the short period of time and characterizing the world as efficent/productive.whatever (which is exactly how imperials viewed neophytes relative to the normal citizens), I'm inclined to interpret that as they successfuly got him. He might not be infected per se, but he could easily have been indoctrinated. All it would take is one clever purestrain, not to mention the possibility of mind-control

>>53087507
The thing is they had flyers and things like the big as Drones to that job.

Hell even maybe auxiliary since that was the original theme for the Tau, a mix of different minor Xenos working together for the (Tau) Greater Good.

Maybe if the Tau where alone sure go for those suits, but when you have those Xenos to go wild with different designs and shit it end looking lame

So if I'm understanding the new detachments correctly, its now easier than ever to run a fluffy inquisitions army?

Bro, far as being autistic goes, I've already established that this shit is humor to me, I could give a shit if some nameless gribblies died or not, that's just the interpretation of the fluff that made the most sense to me when I read it, not something I'm emotionally invested in.

May I ask specifically what you guys are talking about?

I'm interested but not sure what's going on.

What's the longest range tyranid unit? The biovore? Kinda funny the exocrine has a much larger cannon but has shorter range

>>53087766
The recent Damocles Gulf books that gave some updates/formations to Farsight Enclaves and IG, Mont'ka.

>>53087727
Vindicare misses twice, yes the guys that can shoot down Eldar jetbikes no problem. He got blinded, you know the guys that can only be blinded by warp magic
Eversor lost in melee, they didn't even shoot it to death
Callidus the guys that infiltrated psychic things like eldar, genetic and Psyker shit like Genestealer and Orks. But some how the Tau smell her funny and proceeds to defeat her in melee.
The Culexus was the one that did it. The guys made to fight psykers. Some how was the best against no Psyker race.

It was bad very bad writing

>>53085234
They are all vagina/period jokes

Any word yet on the UltraUltra Smurfs? other than the fact that they're probably a Geedubs incentive to make painting even easier.

>>53087789
Callidus I kind of justify, because it is speculated that the Ethereals do produce a pheremone that results in the total obedience.

>>53087789

>send a psychic assassin against the non-psychic race

Just why.

>>53087833
I mean, in fairness, does the Imperium know they have no psykers?

>>53087766
This >>53087779
It was a Tau wank so bad. Not in the sense that Tau won, but in the sense of LOL Tau wins plot armour.

Assassins failing at their specialisation hard to the point of ridicule.

Pask the anti Baneblade and leader of the common soldier simply sent his men to die to then return in a Baneblade.

Space Tau pope with maximum security and special shit, got killed by an anti Psyker Assassin, the fucker simply walk there, even rode a tank with other Tau.
While the Vindicare and Callidus that are used to this level of deep cover inside enemy territory got discover like nothing

>>53087808
Anon the Callidus can infiltrate Orks, Genestealer Cult and Eldar. The last two can read your mind and tell you are not them. They usually fail when doing finer cultural things. The writers could have use that to tell the Assassin apart, not use they smell funny

>>53087808
And orks/genestealers have a genetic way to sense whar's part of them and have been infiltrated. Apparently the Tau pheromones are more effective than a creature made by the old ones as a biological weapon, and a subversive entity made to undermine species from within that was made by a literal hivemind from beyond the galaxy?

Lol, fucking Tau players. Holy shit kill yourself.

>>53087842
Yes, the Imperium knows.

I'm using a Skitarii Maniple to fill up points next to my Elimination Maniple. I'm wondering if I should use the Datasmith or one of the Skitarii Alphas (the one in the PlasCal squad) as my Warlord and also which table would be best to roll on.

A Datasmith Warlord obviously has the advantage of being with the robots and can potentially get the 8+ canticle for his unit while the Alpha has the Preferred Enemy bonus. Not sure if using the Skitarii traits and Tactical Objectives would be optimal either on that one, since Strategic Traits have some very powerful stuff in them and Skitarii objectives having some requiring Skitarii units, which I'm only using 2 minimum sized ones of.

>>53086601
>consistently display the widest range of characters, and have the best examples of GWs abilities to make models and write lore.
I can't actually tell if this is Poe's Law or not.

Taking you seriously though... even though I like me some SMs, don't you think this is just a side-effect of GW spending much more time developing them than all the other factions?

Also, if we're doing unpopular 40K opinions: the Dreadknight wasn't nearly as bad as people like to say, at least aesthetically. Centurions look infinitely worse.

>>53086737
Tau were REALLY made to try and draw in anime fans around the turn of the century, when anime and manga were getting big in the West. GW more-or-less admitted this when they came out.

>>53087444
I developed an irrational dislike of Riptides, after seeing so many people pandering on WIP threads, etc. by posting their unpainted, unconverted, and totally unremarkable Riptides just after they came out, for no reason other than because the kit/unit was all the rage at the time.

>>53087781
>other than the fact that they're probably a Geedubs incentive to make painting even easier.
Well, that, and the fact that they probably want to give 40K its own Sigmarine analogue. You know, despite Sigmarines existing mainly to give AoS its own Space Marine analogue.

It's like a vicious cycle of one-upsmanship, in an attempt to make the most SOOPAR EPIK faction to draw in the over-excited, sugar-rushing kiddies.

Hopefully, but you know GW will suck the Tau's dick some more. I fucking hate the Tau and their fucking weeb players so much. The plot armor is so thick and pandering that it's shameful. Every fucking time the Tau turn up every other faction has to be written in the most pants on head retarded way that I wish I could strangle whoever wrote such trash. Because god forbid the factions are just written decently. No, it can't just be the Tau outsmart someone or win like an underdog, the Tau writers and players aren't happy unless the opposing faction is written like a bunch of slack jawed mongoloids who sit around shitting their pants compared to the grand Tau.

And I know Tau can be decent, like the Farsight Enclaves. So why are the regular Tau so full of bullshit? Are useless weeb faggots that much of a moneymaker where they can't stand to see their faction have to win on their own merits and have to win against neutered and mentally damaged versions of everybody? Give me a break.

>>53087633
They can literally use mind control on a hyper-indoctrinated Space Marine Librarian given the right circumstances, doing so on the completely psychically-defenseless Ethereal would be child's play.

Also, Aun'va was literally their supreme leader in the middle of a full-fledged warzone with the absolute best protection they could manage. And he still died.

>Still no starter set in sight

When am I going to get my Death Guard and Double Marines, bros?

Not my place to tell other people how to live but I really don't understand why anyone would get into this hobby if they didn't want to assemble and paint models and roll dice.

Paying people to paint your minis never made sense to me.

I also don't understand why anyone would buy a painted army.

To me, the journey is more important than the destination. I enjoy all the hours of assembling and painting, probably more than the actual game (of course 6th and 7th have been 5 years of shit and I play assault armies).

Am I That Guy if I play daemons? Or is it specific to mono-tzeentch?

>>53088384

>>53088366
All signs point to June.

I'm hoping to split the starter box so I can grab the Death Guard, but I think many people will be looking for those. Might just finish painting what I have and wait for the eBay prices to go down when they do come out.

A friend of mine is curious what the 40k equivalent of Lizardmen and SKAVEN are.

>>53088384
People have many different perspectives Anon. Personally, I've only paid to have one model painted ever and that was because I was afraid I wouldn't do a very good job painting Lysander. I was debating doing the same thing with Belisarius Cawl, but I'll give him a shot. I think for most people it's a time issue, the painting just takes time they feel they don't have.

>>53087308
Bravery removes by model. IE if you lose by 2 you lose 2 models regardless of wound count.

Fabius just did 50 wounds. Can you pass a Ld10-50 check? I assume insane courage is still in game but that's still a 35/36 chance to wipe the theoretical squad of titans.

>>53088525
Nah, like finish base coats for several minis at once, then nuln-oiling (or whatever) all of them at once. Although that falls apart if you paint before assembling

I do sub assemblies and then paint, which is what I was referring to.

Just finished my 3rd(and final, for now) BDSM boat. It's the one in the back. I still need to wait for a good day to go outside and seal it with some dullcote.

Send all your models to me and I will happily build them, in return you can help me paint up my units.

i literally got a respirator for assembling

I'm thinking about making a SWA kill team themed around the cast of Sealab 2021, but what the fuck would I use for the wheelchair guy?

>>53084910
I can understand the imperium being like larger faction, but holy shit all of them in one book would be a massive tome. LSM, Skitarri, Space Wolves, Blood Angels, Dark Angels, Guard, and just about everything else they've ever made.

>>53088661
An Ork, exchange the physically crippled with the mentally crippled

>>53088316
Yes which is why we show up none painters then tell the None painters their armies can look this bitching too...
For Cash. Sex if they play 'Nids.

>>53088401
Well my friend do I have a deal for you. I'll paint your stuff for you. reasonable rates too.

>>53088691
Good suggestion, but I had a better idea: use a sentinel pilot mounted on toothpicks with greenstuff sculpted around it

>>53088653
probably a good idea. I glue them in a well ventilated area and desu I spend hundreds of dollars on toy soldiers and am 30 years old. I never really had any brain cells to lose to begin with.

>>53088646
un fortunately i live in australia. desu if I had a friend like you I would gladly do that because I like painting different things but I really want to get one army fully done. I don't want to play until my entire army is fully painted and based. I pretend it's no big deal when I see an unpainted army on the table top but I secretly despise them haha.

Anyone got a PDF for May 2017 WD?

>>53088661
which faction?

>>53086588
They look so fucking happy

>>53088661

You had better be using them as chaos with the aspiring champ being Sparkamus Prime

>>53088907
I was thinking either guard or Inq, cadian fatigues should be easy to paint like the wetsuits. Inq qould let me make Murphy an Inquisitor...

How viable is a Warpsmith based Chaos Space marine army?

>>53088964
Like nothing but Warpsmiths?

>>53088983
Nah like Chaos Space marines but led by a warpsmith and lots of daemon engines

>>53088999
Your numbers suggest potential. At least in fluffy ways.

Why not full dark mechanicum/mechanicus?

Traitor iron hands?

>>53088999
8th ed. who knows

7th ed. They're lackluster.
They can't fight dedicated cc units,
They get to shoot a melta or a flamer kinda nice
I've rarely seen repair be used because vehicles have a tendency to detonate
They're shatter ruins or whatever its called is forgotten %70 of the time
And they're just super expensive

>all these "40k is a joke setting!" posts

Yeah dude I only like 40k ironically too :^)

>>53089055
see >>53086645

>>53089058
It's not about liking it ironically, it's about liking it for what it is.

>>53089029
I plan on doing that theme entirely, but at the same time the Chaos Space marine models just don't look techy enough and I'm not sure if I'd be able to make a good looking conversion of Adeptus Mechanicus

>>53089058
40k is a joke setting that takes itself seriously.
As in it's hilarious to us but the characters take it all at face value, creating and setting a unique tone for the setting.

I mean just how ridiculous and hysterical is the concept of Blood Angels, Space Wolves or even the design aesthetics for Tzzentch bird-like creatures. This is without touching the obvious things like Orks and Gretchins.

It's this balance between being super serious and hardcore with silly concepts and stompy models that made it appeal to me.

The formation Daemon Engine Pack is fucking incredible and one of CSMs best in all honesty

>>53088961
You could use admech/skitarii bits for a crippled guy. Maybe some bionic legs or the servitor tank thingy.

>>53089141
but you won't be painted red. less red less speeeed

>>53088784
why the fuck does all my shit have desu in it I didn't put it in there.

>>53088422
It always weirds me out a little seeing people paint in store. There's a ton doing it, but it just seems odd to me to bring in all your paints, unpainted models, pallet, brushes etc.
Just much easier to do at home.

you just defined the term satire.

That's which one? Link if you're able?

>>53089269
I don't post much anymore. I only stick to a couple of boards because the site has been taken over by stormfront.

Will be playing Necromunda with family and friends to try out something new and the idea of playing cops and robbers sounds way too good to pass up but where can I find the rules for the Enforcers?

>>53089282
more like manleTSons.

Anyways, what do y'all think?

What varnishes do you use to protect your models? My testors dull coat still seems to scuff sometimes. Dunno if Im just not putting enough on or not.

>>53089742
>Is 40k Satire?
We're through the looking glass people.

But in all seriousness, it is as big of a satire as is possible. Every single element of classic 40k down to the names of even the minor characters and planets are fucking jokes.

>>53089738
every army will get its own thing. how they choose to classify army is still debated (for some fucking reason).

They'll announce the new starter set, probably do a batrep or two. they have enough to last a while.

>>53089780
but is it STILL satire. it clearly started that way but now...

>>53089742
It used to be but then it started taking itself a little too seriously

>>53089798
While a lot of the thread has been lost, I think that it's still widely acknowledged by the writers that it's a satirical setting. It takes itself seriously for the sake of marketing to a modern audience that doesn't remember the 80's, but the heart and soul is still satire, ymmv.

>>53089738
Things we want that could eat up two weeks each if one day per faction:
Example models from each faction
Faction-specific detachments
How factions handle leadership (synergy, ATSKNF, Commissars, etc.)
Special new Lord of War releases like Primarchs

Things we'll get:
A day on NEW and IMPROVED Challenge rules
In-depth coverage on minute terrain rule changes
Some generic paragraphs vaguely hinting at future plot developments
One day talking about each faction in the most general terms, offering nothing new, and teasing one model's stat line
