/40kg/ 40K General

I plan on getting back into 40k once 8th drops (haven't played since 5th) what's different? I plan on starting s new army as well

Has anyone got some assets they used to make homebrew codexes handy? Like the boarders/fonts/backgrounds. Imperial style if possible, Inquisition/Sororitas specifically.

I came here to chew bubblegum and wreck titans.
And I'm all out of bubblegum

>>53244022
It's for character sheets and shit for Dark Heresy, but the stuff used on the /tg/ Sororitas codex is pretty much exactly what I want.

If Orks beliefs become true when enough Orks think the same thing, how come nobody has used this for their advantage? Like Necrons raise an army of super orks that believe that Space Marines are actually super weak and can't be hurt by them?

>>53244043
All out of fresh memes, too.

>>53244065
>how come nobody has used this for their advantage
because it isn't a real thing

>>53244079
Leave him alone he's fabulous

>>53244065
I mean, that works to an extent. The Waaagh lets orks put their heads back on after being blown off with pretty rudimentary medical treatment, and the bolter was designed to kill orks by blowing them up in a way that convinces other nearby orks "zog, 'es a gonner" so they actually do die.

>>53244065
Orks already believe they're da best.

>>53244103
Then it's a matter of raising an army of orks that believe that being btfo by a bolter isn't enough to kill them, right?

>>53244121
But what if besides that they believed everyone else was the worst too? As a human I believe myself to be superior to say, a stray dog and an ant, but I wouldn't put them both in the same league.

>>53244043
Goddamn look at that hourglass figure.

Fucking sexy bitch.

>>53244147
Why would it matter unless the dogs are fighting ants? Orks already think they can beat anyone. They don't. It's not that strong an effect.

>>53244065
The WAAAGH! is like psychic duct tape that works on an ork quantum level. It fixed broken things to work, it doesn't improve them.

A gun that wouldn't function shoots because WAAAGH! fixes it, as the ork doesn't realize it's not meant to function.

A jet that has no fuel takes of when an ork hyjacks it because the WAAAGH! fixes it, as the ork doesn't realize the jet lacks the fuel. (it doesn't materialize the fuel, the engines simply run on their own without it)

An Ork would never believe that because an Ork wants a propa fight.

>>53244222
You know how one plain human psyker can make anything faster? It's like that except It takes thousands of dumbasses and still isn't as potent or reliable. Go read the lore and stop asking shit questions shitting up the thread.

So I got into the 8th hype and bought a Tyranids SC box, I have 0 idea how to play or paint or any of the stuff and I happen to live nearby the HQs, is there people that can show you how to paint and play and shit or should I go to the Games Workshop in the city centre?

>>53244998
8th will play pretty fucking different.

Paint your box and 8th should be out by then.

As for painting, try Warhammer TV on youtube. Duncan's videos are great.

Last Mega link is dead

>>53245026
Yeah that was the plan but I was wondering if by the time 8th drops I will be able to learn it in Warhammer world or if I have to go to a proper shop. I know the place has some stores and tables for playing as well as a pub but I'm not sure if it is aimed at super hardcore tourney fags or clueless noobs are also accepted

What kind of terminator variant is your favorite, anon? Are there any legion specific terminator variants you want to see in the future we don't already have in 40k i.e. gorgon, siege, red butchers, etc.?
I personally like the scarab occult, working on my squad right now for 8th.

You guys mind if I shill my eBay stuff here?
I saw a few posts recently where people said they wanted to start playing 40k, but didn't have the money to buy from GW. My stuff is going pretty cheap at the moment.

What is the best way to kit out a Leman Russ in the current edition?

I currently get much more milage out of an Exterminator with a lascannon and 2x multimeltas than I do out of the battle cannon variants.

Is this set to change in 8E or not?

they need to make vehicles easier to kill as they lose wounds

>>53245675
It's pretty evident that they will become immobilized, have their weapons destroyed etc as they get whittled down

BRRRMMMMMMMMMMMMM

>>53245650
>we definitely won't be seeing most of the rules for FW units on release
Except we will because it has already been straight up officially confirmed. You think FW needs to wait for 8th edition to come out before they get to see the rules and make new datasheets for their stuff? The same design team that's been doing the rules for every existing GW unit over the past many months has also been doing the same thing for FW stuff in partnership with the FW studio.

>>53245686
i'm talking about losing armor or even toughness

>>53245650
Can I still use all my models?
Yes. Every Warhammer 40,000 miniature we sell today will be usable in the new edition of Warhammer 40,000. What’s more, they’ll be supported with new rules, which will be available from the get go in handy, low-cost books.

Even Forge World models?
Yes, even all of your Warhammer 40,000 Forge World models**.

sounds like we're getting rules instantly to me

>Is this set to change in 8E or not?
Hmm, I don't know, is something set to change in the new edition that's changing every rule in the fucking game and rebalancing every single thing all from the ground up? That's a real difficult question anon.

You must have mistaken this post with seomthing else.

>>53245785
It is, but I've always considered it a heavy duty melta-gun.

It doesn't have the twin-linked profile anyway

>>53245384
Is that the Meganob torso, or did you plug some bitz onto a regular nob?

If it's the latter I badly want to know what you did.

>>53245888

I second that, wracking my brains trying to figure out where that torso piece is from.

>>53245879

a lot of things are getting re-worked this edition. I wouldn't be surprised if the multi-melta is changed too.

>>53245906
24" of AP-4 still sounds pretty good to me though.

immolators with 4 melta shots

yeah nah

>>53245906
Well atleast Multimelta is now tactical marine's most expensive weapon instead of gravcannon. But if Multimelta is same as meltagun but with 24" it will be very deadly weapon. "Melta"-rule now works against anything, not just vehicles.

>>53245927
Yeah please

>>53245866
Sauce

>>53245940
the most important thing is that you can move and shoot rather accurately so infantry multi-meltas get a buff compared to vehicle mounted

>>53245940
A tactical squad with a combi-plasma, plasma gun and a multi-melta would be 24" of pain.

>>53245927

I'd like it but I'm expecting just two unless they decide to make multi-meltas something more than a longer-range meltagun.

On the other hand: I don't envy anyone trying to assault my Immolators now. 2d6 autohits from heavy flamers? Yes please.

>>53245968
not sure how wall of death rule is going to work in 8th

>>53245978

Well, we know overwatch is BS 1 shots but heavy flamers are 1d6 auto-hit shots with twin linked just being 'Double attacks'

So unless they've failed to mention some special thing, we know how it should work in 8e.

>>53245923
>>53245906
The vibe that I've been getting is that heavy weapons are getting improved somehow, I'm pretty sure that every heavy weapon gets to fire more shots to account for the abundance of wounds that are being dished out in this edition.

Perhaps multi-meltas fire twice as many shots as melta-guns? (IIRC that's what twin-link does anyway)

>>53245991
infatry units can now split fire so you won't miss lascannon shots on oncoming assault troops

>>53244065
What is the Old Ones, thanks Trebeck I'll take races that don't count for 500.

>>53245718
Multi-Meltas are the most expensive upgrade for Space Marines. More than a Plasma cannon.

If it's just a 24" Meltagun, then it will be absurdly overcosted at 27 points.

>>53246027

They could toss it 1d6+3 wounds or something. So it's got a chance to 1 shot a dreadnaught.

>>53245991
twin linked used to be you got to re roll failed to hit rolls
a large portion of vehicles had the rule because they had the same gun mounted twice e.g. parallel armaments on the wings of a flyer
now you just get to fire those twice which is an increase in firepower
i'm assuming models that had twin linked without dual weapons will simply get a reroll to hit now

>>53245927

On the subject of twin-linking and Immolators, will the heavy bolter be a viable choice now?

6 S5 -1AP shots at 36" compares well to the heavy flamers 2D6 at ~8" (I'm hoping for longer range considering hand flamers are now 6"), although heavy flamers have an advantage since they hit automatically.

That said, the multi-melta will be hard to pass up with two shots, both doing 2D6 damage within 12".

>>53246112
they'll have different prices to balance

>>53246038
Didn't GW state that one of their design goals for 8th ed for vehicles was for 1 shots to not happen?

>>53246112
I think they're all gonna be viable choices
I think GW is trying to remove "bad options"

>>53246125
They meant they didn't want something like Exploades! Results where the vehicals just disappears, they've stated a couple times that there's antitank weapons powerful enough to one shot stuff like rhinos

>>53246137

Wait until you see the Ork weapon profiles before you make that bold claim.

>>53246112
I'm just happy I didn't glue my 4 Immolator weapons to the turret.

Even if I ever used the MM for like 3 editions since the Repressor was a thing.

It didn't always work but 4 heavy flamers and a combi flamer with rending was funny.

>>53246181
I know that. Wounding on 2+ vs 3+ is still pretty important for consistancy when you have a small number of shots.

>>53246200

>>53246200
It's literally just crushing heretics beneath your treads. Now running into a unit with a tank does more than just push them out if the way.

>>53246210
No, it is boxing and swords. Just like battleshock the units commit honorable sudoku.

Not my fault the rules for punching dudes look the same as ramming and the moral rule looks like ork mob rule and the models die with infights

>>53246226
I play SoB, is not like I had more options.

Also you have any idea how bad Repentias and PE.

DE witches look good by comparison.

>>53246147
I sort of think that things like Explodes! should happen for extremely weak vehicles. Rhinos and whatnot.

Like if a tank's wounds are all destroyed in a single shot, then they automatically explode D6 inches.

>>53246240

>>53246251
If I have to guess changes to stormbolter then its going to be assault 4 and combibolter will be rapidfire 2. Then they work as doublebarreled bolters and stormbolter is more refined version of combibolter.

>>53246282

The bullshit monstrous creature, walker, vehicle thing from 7th was worse.

>>53246272
nah, rapid fire 2 for storm bolter for 2-4 shots, combi bolter literally a combi weapon so either 1-2 shots or 2-4 shots at -1 bs

>>53246260
I think it's going to retain the same profile, but fire more shots and be buffed against vehicles.

Battleshock in AoS (and 40k 8th ed by extention) represents individuals fleeing the battlefield. So rather then your whole unit pussying out, it's just a few cowards.

>>53246368
Nid battleshock is psychic backlash from others dying near them, Space Marine battleshock is things like pulling wounded away, no idea about Necrons.

So if there's approximately a million loyalist astartes out there, how many Chaos Space Marines are there?

I've always figured that there's a lot more than a million, but that their quality varies a whole lot more

>>53246383
Necrons is phasing out to avoid too many casualties.

after all most of old chaos marines just stick their thumb in their ass and hang out on a daemon planet

>>53246393
The nine traitor legions post istvaan and all the other shit probably had 25000 on average (some with less, some with more) but at the same point you also had loyalist legions that were almost entirely wiped out that remustered their strength.
Plus the chapters that later turned renegade.
Then you have to include all the other stuff they do like stealing loyalist geneseed and whatnot.
I'd say they're probably even.

>>53246429
They can't just recruit anybody, they have to be genetically capable of accepting the organs.

Although I'd be willing to bet that in desperate times some chaos warbands would just mass produce astartes from their cultists when they get desperate

>>53246383
Note that the examples of fluffy reasons for the battleshocks weren't directly related to specific allies

the psychic shockwave may refer to the eldar as well as warriors retreating with fallen squadmates being for tyranids too

or alternatively go with the old reason for fearless units to receive additional casualties at the end of a combat

>>53246463
>They can't just recruit anybody
Yes, they can

Not all chaos marines follow the geneseed process of uplifting

>>53243876
Necrons are the new favorite power army

>>53246489
I thought that if you didn't have the right genetics you would reject geneseed?

>>53246393
Depends on how much each legion lost during the heresy and how much they regained after.

Gotta consider stuff like the Legion Wars and general inter warband warfare.

At the start of the heresy the maximum estimate of Traitor Marine forces was 1,240,000.

Now, how much did they grow during those 10,000 years?

>>53246412 if this is accurate, the Black Legion alone is 1,700,000 strong.

>>53246509

>>53246472
True, but I was addressing the fearless armies in fluff.

>>53244719
And also the fact that Volkites were even harder to produce and maintain compared to the bolter. They could pretty much teach any legionary how to look after his boltgun, but you'd have to have a priest on hand to tend to a Volkite.

I guess that makes sense but then so can you rationally explain the Kroot's schtick.

they don't do it because they want to (or rather, I'm sure they do), but it's akin to breathing for them. If the Tau stop the Kroot from eating other species, they will cease to exist and the Tau lose an ally.

Plus, not like they eat living things (I think, mostly). It's like eating chicken, only this chicken gives you wings, or gorrila strength, or the ability to fire gigantic spikes out of your fingertips.

I expect those Factions to be Faction keywords as well though, meaning you can field all the AdMech in 1 army together.

In the Datasheets preview, the Rubric Marines had the Chaos, Tzeentch, Heretic Astartes, and Thousand Sons Faction keywords, and then the article went on to say that those are used for selecting a Battle-Forged army.

So going back to the AdMech, I imagine all Cult Mechanicus units will have Imperium, Adeptus Mechanicus, and Cult Mechanicus Faction keywords, and Skitarii will have Imperium, Adeptus Mechanicus, and Skitarii keywords.

Where does this come from? I was getting kind of worried that Elysians were getting squatted since most of their stuff is going in and out of stock (or removed completely), but if they're confirmed for one of the next IAs, I'd be a lot less worried.

Plus, new book means new models.

>>53246969
In my opinion it was also made to give a break to the AdMech release.

Do you have an Elysian force?

All their models which were recently removed are back on FW's online store, including the Elysian HQ command squad which is in the IG section of the site instead of the Elysian for some reason.

I don't think they're going anywhere.

Dunno. The way the rules are written, the "reroll" stratagem looks to be the only one worth using, especially since it's the cheapest and it can be used to re-roll anything. "Autopass Battleshock" looks incredibly cornercase (if you need it, chances are you're already losing a lot of points anyway) while getting a free "counterstrike" is a melee-only ability and doesn't favor MSU setups anyway.

Meanwhile, the reroll can be used for *anything*, such as ensuring you get the charge off in the first place, you don't fluff the number of shots your Exorcist...ahem, Leman Russ gets, etc.

Honestly, I'm not sure I'm feeling this edition at all. I might either go for whatever 9th Age equivalent comes out, stick with 7th, or go back to 5th.

The summon rules in particular feel like too extreme a patch in the opposite direction as well.

I have a decent-quality Eradicator I want to get rid of, largely because I'm moving into magnetized tanks and also a bit because I think the Eradicator is junk (next edition might prove me wrong, but I'll have magnetized tanks by then).

What keywords should I be using besides '40k', 'Leman Russ', and 'Eradicator'?

>>53247033
passing battleshock in invaluable for blobs
it can mean the diffrence between losing half your unit or the whole unit
meanwhile you only get to reroll 1 dice, "oh wow now my lascannon dealt 4 wounds instead of 1" honestly it's kinda underwhelming and will only have it's use when you fumble ridiculously hard, e.g. dealing 1 wound on a d6 when the enemy knight only has 3 wounds left. which might be fitting for a 1 cp option
>The summon rules in particular feel like too extreme a patch in the opposite direction as well.
howso ? in an ideal world (which is what tey're trying to go for) everything will be balanced according to it's point cost, so summoning free units would make you to strong. The ability to summon the units you need where you need them is strong by itself.

Lascutters and Scanner are completely gone as far as I can tell. I know they weren't that good, but I liked the model and I was planning to convert them into handheld lascannons or meltaguns for use in a normal guard force.
There might be another, but that and HQ were the big ones that had me worried.

Summoning wasn't what made Daemons powerful. It was summoning alongside buffstacking, alongside just enough techpieces to nullify trouble units (ex: Using Masque to slow down Barkstars long enough for the Ordnance Tyrant list to do its job).

I agree some nerfing is ideal. (Ex: GSC Summons should roll a D3 instead of a D6 on the Ambush table). Making summons deduct points from the rest of the army defeats half the point of summoning in the first place (especially since armies that invest in summons aren't putting those same points into guns).

Making it a wildcard deepstrike...means summons will be a tool for null armies rather than for board prescence/attrition. Aka, fuck Word Bearers.

Consider the Tervigon. In 5th edition, it was the only way to get "Free mooks" besides the Tomb Spyder or Chenkov's "Send in the next

Several thoughts include:
-Declare what you want to summon before you summon it.
-Make casting/denial not "all or nothing." As an example, 7e denial could have been "each success to deny removes a success to harness Warp Charge"
-GSC Summons only roll a D3 on the Cult Ambush Table.
-Horror Units which are created by Split do not generate WC for a turn (this doesn't apply to Horrors that join pre-existing units as a result of Splitting).
-Arguably, a model may not move on a turn it wishes to summon. This would represent actual focus on ritual shenanigans, rather than what happened at the start of 7e where you could have an Eldar Farseer with Mantle of the Laughing God move 12 on a bike, throw dice on a summon (Daemonettes for the irony, and speed to correct a bad scatter), save one WC for the Ghosthelm, then turbo to a new position.

It's possible to make free points work without breaking the game. Otherwise, Tyranids would have been OP back in 5th, and we all know how that turned out.

Maybe Sylandri Veilwalker is too moist because of huge primarch hunk.

Even GW knows Chaos marines are bunch of cucks

>>53245866
I want to buy chinese, but where?

>>53247302
Not how it works.

Are all my current Space Marine miniatures redundant now?

No way! Primaris Space Marines do not replace regular (if a superhuman killing machine can be described as ‘regular’) Space Marines. These guys have a few extra genetic enhancements, thanks to Belisarius Cawl, and serve as additional reinforcements in the Adeptus Astartes arsenal, not replacements.

He called it, 4chen is truly best place for leaks.

>>53247334
More marine shit. When armies need an update for models and others need their entire army updated or squated

But it is funny to see chaos getting roasted

>But I play Chaos! Where are my super-super-human reinforcements?

First off, that’ll teach you for turning your back on the Emperor. Secondly, did you not see the Death Guard teaser video? The Chaos Gods have not been idle – we guarantee there are some warp-charged hulking warriors on their way for you guys in the not too distant future.

gayos fags absolutely btfo!

Numarines are pretty cool

Chaos marines in suicide watch!

*Range 30, Strength 4, AP -1 and Rapid Fire.

New super marines bolter stats.

>>53247280
Well shit, they do say they are going to push out more than just tacticals. I don't know what I'll do, I already have several SM armies planned. Shit shit shit. The kits look very nice though, although I would have loved to get a new helmet and not mk4.

Noob here, I bought a Tau SC box and I'm kind of confused about the variants. If I build the breacher one then I would have to buy another one if I ever want to try a striker team? Are the "flying" XV8 the bodyguard variant or just a different pose?

>>53247328
HAhahaha

FFFFFUUUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKK

>>53247343
>NuMarines are called Primaris Marines
>Guilliman started the Primaris Marines project back during the heresy to combat chaos-infused Traitors because normal marines were losing ground vs chaos-powered brethren
>They are Bobby G's geneseed crossed with methods of making Custodes and added AdMech Tech
>only Cawl and Bobby G knew of the project
>Thousands of Primaris Marines we created and stored on different worlds across galaxy in cryo-pods ready for deployment(remember the teaser video)
>Fulgrim vs Guilliman happened and the Primaris Marines were never launched
>Cawl didn't want to launch them without the word of Bobby G
>Cawl's actual main objective was to get these marines to launch, but the objective of rezzing Guilliman came first
>These marines are to help bolster chapters that are low in numbers
>Some will reject the Primaris Marines as abominations because they are not made with X Primarch's geneseed
>potentially cause a rift in the Imperium

Gamewise:
>They are THE answer to Truescale marines without replacing the entire range(and pissing off customer base), so they can be used as Truescales OR Primaris Marines
>Primaris Marines can be fielded along side other Space Marines
>Primaris Marines can be fielded as a standalone force
>More points heavy than GK
>Primaris Marines have exclusive access to some new weapons
>1 type of weapon per squad, so all 5 guys get the same weapon
>The Starter set is Ultras VS Death Guard (You do get Primaris Marines, too.)
>Starter set should include roughly 56 models
>Under $150 USD
>5 Books at launch, Space Marines, Imperium, Chaos, Xenos 1, and Xenos 2, each serving as a printed compendium of the "all released at once" rules update for 8th with faction exclusive updates coming later

Posted a week ago and last night.

>space marines that are better at being space marines than space marines
Nonzero chance I'm simply going to use their rules to represent normal SM. It'll let me get closer to fluff without pulling out my ancient white dwarf with movie marines.

>new bolt pattern ("Bolt Rifles") forged by AdMech on Mars
>same statline as Skitarii Ranger Galvanic Rifles
Checks out, nice and fluffy.

>>53247369
So a Tau Pulse Rifle with -1S, +1AP?

>>53247391
>>Some will reject the Primaris Marines as abominations because they are not made with X Primarch's geneseed
This is the only part that seems to be wrong so far, since the article just mentioned they're all created with the geneseeds of the respective Primarchs and that its unknown how the new creation methods will interact with the mutations in some of the geneseeds (ie, we're totally getting Wolfier Primaris Space Wolves and Vampirier Primaris Blood Angels later down the line).

The lore about Primaris is exactly like we wanted it actually. Basically welcomed by some, but also viewed with defiance by some. That opens new possibilities. Looking forward to see the new Chapters composed only of them, here's to hoping they won't be Mary Sues.

Intercessor for Tacticals and Tacticus for the name of their armor is pretty cool.

That new bolter is so shit.

>>53247429
They were made 9000 years ago, see shitty pre heresy mk4 helmet.

>>53247421
Yeah, they'll also have Precision Shots.

>>53247429
I like that piece, the helmet and armour is great.
The rifle will do.

>>53247435
I do like the name Intercessor

Tacticus Armour is a little too Fakeus Latinus though.

>Primaris marines can fill roles other imperials are lacking in their armies

Fuck
no new admech shit just space marines space marines space marines

>most advanced tacsuits yet
>still have those goofy fucking knee-plates

if not to make some dumb visual links to sigmarines, then why?

That's exactly why it was done.

>>53247429
Damn the new marines are pretty big guys

>>53247469
We will get new AdMech eventually, relax. AdMech have already proven extremely popular, but Space Marines have always been the cash cows - once they've blown their load on Primaris SM stuff and Cult Legion ChaosMarines to ring in the new edition we'll start seeing releases for everyone else again.

both 4 and 9 are unlucky numbers for the japs

turns out robooty and cool are weebs

>>53247487
UUUU

>The Primaris Space Marine here is an Intercessor wearing Mk X Tacticus armour, a suit that combines the most effective elements of ancestral Horus Heresy patterns of plate with more recent developments in power armour technology.

>>53247467
I presume there might be other types of armor for different roles? I mean, Tacticus is teally close to Tactical. Assaultus and Devastatus armor when?

quite simple dear friend! You take one numarine, knock him out quickly and before he wakes up, get him into the coffin, he won't be angry at all, really
