I will re-ask my question. Could anyone recommend me any Tau- and Nids-related novels and books? I want to pick one of them as my first army (like their aesthetic and codice-background) but want to read some more stuff before I choose
>>
>>53378916
That's not a button, that's the plasma canister.
>>
>>53378925
Read everything in the 3rd and 4th edition Tyranid Codexes, and the novel Warriors of Ultramar.
>>
>>53378916
That's the plasma canister. I think you need to flick a switch and then pull the trigger to fire the plasmagun.

>>
>>53378925
There's a bit of Tau in the first Ciaphas Cain novel, For the Emperor. They're plot relevant but not completely relevant.
>>
>>53378964

They are titans. HH Warlords look like the old armourcast and epic titans which in turn looked like the current knights.
>>
>>53378954
Black with red in the cracks on the back and such also looks nice on bloodletters. Like the Balrog from Lord of the Rings is painted.

>That won't make people have a fit
Fuck 'em, anon. Personally I think blue looks dumb on Khorne demons but it seems to be a semi-popular alternative, and if you find a color scheme you enjoy and can live with, choose it. That being said, what about bone/white?

>>53379045
Blue sounds interesting, though I'm not sure how well it would fit. I had been considering more bone-white colors, but I'm worried that would look too similar to the daemonettes I've got.

Actually at this rate they'll be through all the factions in about a month, if they do every single space marine chapter. Though it honestly might not be until damn near release date.

>>53379123
No, and there probably won't be for a while. Age of Sigmar is just now launching their version of Kill Team, and we just had Shadow War: Armageddon which uses stats similar to 8th edition.
>>
>>53378925
Fire caste is billed as a tau book but its far more a guard book but its also fantastic as a novel, let alone a 40k novel. Also the damocles anthology has some good tau stuff, including water caste, shadowsun and human auxiliaries

>>53379123
Nothing yet. I hope we will see a 8th edition upgrade for both KT and SW:A

No, Cadia is kill. You might be lucky enough to die in the useless and purely symbolic act of trying to retake the shards of your dead daemon haunted world though.

If you can do it, bone with a charred look to parts could be horrifying. Fucked up fleshy colors also work with stretched skin. For some reason it reminded me of bioraptors.

Those actually look pretty neat. Maybe I could go for a sort of grey stone look for them. Have them be like gargoyles.

>>53379126

The Pylons began to shrink the eye, banished every daemon, killed every Possessed CSM (by banishing their daemon half), The Guard had begun turning back Abaddon's forces...

Abaddon, in true jobbing style, like the utterly unironic failure that he is failed to take Cadia and instead had to resort to ramming a beyond priceless, irreplaceable black fortress into it.

You can't make this shit up.

You could only sum it up if the words embarrassing and pathetic had a baby.

enjoy it anon, and hopefully you will join me in asking when will the
>Mechanicus doesn't innovate for 10k years meme
is will die

also I warn you the first novel is somewhat slow as it's basically the prologue to the exploration, some people have told me they dropped the series after it because of how slow it is, but if you just try to enjoy seeing the Mechanicus everyday life and it's relationship with the rest of the Imperium is really good
>>
>>53379907
I didn't really realize how flexible this new system will be over the old allies matrix. I'd like to see stuff like a GSC-infiltrated Imperial Guard detachment, or a fluffy Gue'Vesa detachment
>>
>>53380067
Really they dropped it? I guess if it doesn't have someones head being blown off every third page it's boring
Sucks for them, they never got to read about the hounds.
>>
>>53380106
>or a fluffy Gue'Vesa detachment
This one I'm not sure how to do since as far as we know, Guard units and Tau aren't going to share any keywords. It might require an actual Tau Auxiliaries supplement with new rules, which... who knows if that's ever actually coming.

The GSC one should be much easier though.
>>
>>53380004
>the imperials are all extremely confused by the man that believes he is an eldar

>>53380122
it's divided in 3 segments
the first one is just the introductions of all of the major factions/characters in the story
the beginning of exploration in unexplored space is how the first book ends

it does have battles but they start at I think the latter part of the 2nd segment
>>
>>53380067
Speaking of Mechanicus novels, was anyone else incredibly bothered by how Titanicus ended?

The way they killed Stefan off was weird,
we never explicitly learned what ultimately happened to Varco and Kell and Kalder/Prinzhorn also weren't heard from again after the final Titan battle.

I just figured they'd come up with new detachments, like the "Genestealer Cult Imperial Guard Detachment" or the "Tau Gue'Vesa" detachment with restrictions like "All units must come from factions with the keyword "Genestealer Cult/Tau" or "Imperial Guard".

I doubt the ones they showed are the only ones available.
>>
>>53380288
There are only (9?12?) detachments and they're all generic. We haven't seen all of them but there are no Faction-specific ones.
>>
>>53380288
There shall be no faction specific detatchments.

Doubt you're gonna get what you're after.

One deatchment might be an 'allied detatchment' or something though.

Curious how 12 detatchments is meant to fit into a 12 page rulebook along with movement and cover and saves and whatnot.
>>
>>53380288
I still don't understand why you need a mandatory of two HQs other than to milk the player of at least another twenty shekels
>>
>>53380329
Bulk of the rules may only take 4-6 pages, if its AoS style, maybe 8 if its more verbose. I heard 14 pages as the rumor, you could probably fit 6-8 detatchments per page, so 2 pages for those.

Alright /40kg/, listen up. Mildly successful writefag here. I've been listening to everyone bemoaning the awfulness of the modern 40k fluff and how, for example, Gathering Storm was really rushed and everything these days makes the setting feel smaller and like more of a superhero comic story centered around a few special characters instead of the vast, epic galaxy at war it's supposed to be. So I want to write something that goes back to that massive scale and feels like a proper military campaign.

I'm taking suggestions for what the location, time period, stakes, sides, plot elements, and so on are going to be for this campaign. Just a few rules:
- Absolutely no existing special characters and no settings that have already been done before (Armageddon has loads of fluff already written for example).
- More than two sides is awesome, but I also don't want a kitchen sink where every faction shows up at once.
I'm looking to see what it is that people want to read, and also what piques my own interest.

I'm trying to think. I do want more fluff on internal T'au conflict, like the T'au proper trying to get used to new species that join, or something like incidents that happen among the empire between T'au and Xenos, Xenos and Xenos, or even T'au vs T'au that would obviously be covered up to maintain the "utopia" image but many T'au know that's not the case.

Kek. My zerkers will only be out of the rhinos on the turn they charge. We can safely approach the tank traps on the transports, disembark next turn, move and charge. Assuming we keep some of the massive bonuses we have right now in 7th, we should be pulling of 10 inch charges reliably enough, and your overwatch shots won't be a real threat.

And remember, a single zerker makes it into your gunline and the rest of my red horde will no longer need to worry about overwatch.

I suggest you rethink your strategy.

Grey? White sounds more likely. Grey with Nuln Oil washed over would look way darker.

Anon, did you not read the stuff about cover that GW released today?
Granted, it was phrased a bit wierd, but nobody but infantry can kool-aid man through terrain now.
If an opponent uses tank traps, you have to either get out and walk or go around.
Plus, the way transports now work, any charges from rhinos are going to happen turn 2 at the earliest, more than enough time for a platoon or two to eliminate anyone who has come too close.

Now, of course that's not to say that you aren't going to be able to get them, but you're a fool if you think it will be as easy as drive up and elimate anyone in your path.

First off, ranged weapons are for faggots. Second, what good are forgefiends against the 3+ guardsmen from the Aegis Wall? I'd rather just charge then and ignore the cover bonus altogether.

I think relying purely on zerkers in rhinos to break a fortified Guard gunline is optimistic at best. The guys you're able to assault will exist literally just to die.

I completely forgot ICs could not join units anymore, my apologies. That just means I can charge him with my Juggerlord or my flying Prince and add his skull to the Bloodfather's throne, returning your entire force to their craven nature in the process.

And your lascannons lack the rate of fire to seriously threaten my zerkers, and you can't pick off my HQs unless they're closest. Your defense force will be picked off methodically, cut down and scattered as we are showered with the blessings of the God of War.

So far the only rule giving more than a +1 to armor from cover is if you are playing city fight. I'm not convinced an aegis will give more than +1 so yes I think a gun with lots of shots that will likely be -2 AP will do a good job making a hole for a CC Chaos squad to fuck is a good idea.

>First off, ranged weapons are for faggots
Well I do play Slaanesh so...

>If I charge a gunline? Of coursh! Everything witin 3" is automatically pulled into combat, which means it can't overwatch.

Only if it's in range for you to consolidate into and even then only in the fight/melee phase, at most you'll catch two units side by side, everyone behind them will be unengaged to shoot in the next turn. With no blast weapons or temples guard are free to make tight lines with their squads than can be easily spaced to avoid getting caught by assault units.

Anon, please use your brain.
A single 10 man squad of berserkers will be BTFO'd by a platoon of gaurdsmen.
Let's assume the platoon is:
Command squad with Lascannon HWT
3 GM squads with autocannon HWTs
3 lascannon HWT
1 50 man unit of conscripts
Then lascannon teams will utterly obliterate the rhino, unless rhinos are absolutely ridiculously powerful, as in T9 10W, which is not going to happen.
The lasguns alone FRSR firing will do 13.7... Wounds, which will kill the zerkers. The autocannon HWT will ensure that unless the IG players is rolling absolutely atrociously, the zerkers are dead.
So no, a single zerkers squad will not obliterate a platoon of gunline gaurd.
A whole army of zerkers will, but you said "a single zerker" and even a khornate like you has the mental capacity to understand that a single zerker and a whole army are not the samething
Not that I particularly care, my Primaris and grav guns or Rubrics and daemons will obliterate Khornelets either way.
>>
>>53383574
>I doubt aegis will be +2

I more meant my Conscripts will be going to ground every turn, since they only hit on a 5+ base and only have lasguns.
>>
>>53383570
It seems you misread the new IC rules. They can only be targeted if they are the closest unit to the shooter, I can easily hide them behind the zerker horde until they're in range of either your quad las or your comissar. They'll come out of the horde like a panther leaping out of a bush, then start killing your characters and weapon teams as they consolidate from one curb-stomp combat to the next.

The casual knight player won't waist your time if you can't beat him or complain when you turn down a game for above reason.

It's also likely they will pick up another army they can ally with so they don't just bring a wall of knights to every game, mix it up with guard or marines or whatever.

The WAACFAG will bitch and moan that you tailored your list beat him if her catches a whiff of a chance he might lose. Other bad signs include insisting on playing tables with way too little terrain, like 10 inches between buildings so his knights can leap frog but nothing else can, unless your Eldar.

A single zerker is going to be able to entangle two, maybe 3 squads, and even then that's assuming the IG player has absolutely horrible postioning.
Also, you can only charge units you declare a charge against in the charge phase, a zerker won't be able to entangle multiple squads until the fight phase, after overwatch is done.
So no, a zerker is not going to nullify the overwatch of an entire platoon. Unless he decides to charge the entire platoon in the charge phase, but they would kill him with all the overwatch they would get against him.

I think it will just need more coordination in some cases. For example if there are still points to control mid field having a squad in a pod and saving them till you know how a certain part of the field will shake out then dropping them to take a crucial point.

You keep saying this, but why? Some rhinos are getting popped, and your rhinos moving what, 8+d6 at best isn't enough to get across no man land, even assuming I deploy on the very edge of my deployment zone like a tard.

>>53383886
Fuck you are one dense motherfucker. Only one zerker has to SURVIVE OVERWATCH to pull the other units into combat in the fight phase. Then I'll just need to charge the same squad with another intact unit to bypass his overwatch and ensure victory in the actual fight phase, and they'll slowly mop up the squads that are pulled, unless they try to run away which will just leave them open to further charges.

It was just an example anyway. I highly doubt any of his units will be able to kill 9 out of 10 zerkers just by snap-shooting.

Being able to choose when a unit comes in is amazing. Right now you regularly see anything without a special rule arrive by turn 4 when the battle is already lost, whilst the 5 tactical marines in a drop pod to score objectives near the end of the game came in on turn 2. It is so random you almost can't plan around it, unless there are special rules involved like Drop Pod assault.

Try 12" +d6. That is close enough for my zerkers to charge the turn they disembark.

Anon, the fight and charge phase are 2 seperate phases.
A model gets a 3“ move they can use to pull in new units into the fight without overwatch in the FIGHT phase.
But units can only charge in the CHARGE phase, so if a zerker does pull new units in, then it will be an entire turn before any other zerker units can charge those units pulled in by the zerker in the FIGHT phase in the next CHARGE phase. If the single zerker survives until then (which mathhammer-wise he won't.) then those other units can benefit from no overwatch.

But no, the rules do not allow them to just Charge>pull in other units>other zerker squad charges in just one turn. You are absolutely wrong about that

it's also worth noting that they have said that disembarking happens before the vehicle moves.

Oh, and just to back up those claims:
>Units that activate gain a free 3″ move towards the closest enemy. This can be used to get within 1″ of other enemy units, if you’re cunning, dragging more foes into the melee and preventing them from shooting next turn, even if you didn’t charge them directly (giving them no chance to overwatch). Enemy gun lines will need to be careful about how they position their supporting units, so as to avoid getting dragged into the fight too.
From: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/05/02/new-warhammer-40000-fight-phase-may2gw-homepage-post-4/

>You also can’t move within 1″ of an enemy you didn’t declare as the target of your charge, so if you want to engage multiple units, you’ll need to brave the overwatch fire of all of them. Overwatch can also be fired multiple times per phase, but as soon as the unit is engaged, they will no longer be able to fire back.

The wording on that pile in is very important, you're going to need at least two models in the charging squad and have one be closer to a different unit than what they charged. Easy enough for a mob of orks or nids but harder for elite units.

>>53384335
Exactly, the khorne fag yelling about first turn charges out of a rhino is talking out his ass. Even if he goes first and rhinos are move 12 it will go:
Turn 1: Advance -> get rhino's,princes, and lords shot up
Turn 2: Charge bubble wrap -> Bubble wrap dies or falls back, more shit gets shot up by massed guns.
Turn 3: At this point it all depends on who had the favor of the dice gods.

That is literally no different than the current edition. One zerker, a thousand zerkers, it doesn't matter, you are talking about something that hasn't changed and acting like it has.
Now you're just relying on someone having absolutely piss poor positioning so you can drag in more squads, but that's just beating a retard, which isn't hard no matter what edition it is.
So you really don't have much besides

Seriously? So you assumed that due to those two things, I'd do the most retarded thing possible by deploying everything I have behind a single defense line, and put the defense line on the very edge of deployment?

Seriously, if someone was going to do a single gunline, then they wouldn't put it as close to the enemy as possible. If someone was doing a multi-layered gunline, then they wouldn't stack them as close to each other as possible.

Top kek have fun hitting on 6s.

I highly doubt a mass of conscripts will die on one turn with the commissar still alive. No, most likely they will stay in combat or fall back, both are situations which benefit me. Due to pile in moves my Lord will easily slip between the newly formed cracks in the bubble wrap, moping up the squads behind as the Princes just flies over everything and fucks his comissar to death with a Berzerker Glaive. It'll just go downhill for him from there.

>>53384497
Well that's what your argument came off as, maybe learn how to express yourself if you don't want other people to think you're a retard.

Not like it even matters. A multi-layered gunline means less ground for me to cover before I charge. A single layered one on the edge of the table is simply a dreath trap.

>So you assumed that due to those two things, I'd do the most retarded thing possible by deploying everything I have behind a single defense line, and put the defense line on the very edge of deployment?
Even then, he's an idiot. A single defense line is more than enough room for up to 3 squads of gaurdsmen to deploy and be out of the 3” movement range in the fight phase. Could probably fit 4 or 5 if you really smart and meticulous about deployment.
>>
>>53384678
Except it's not, there have been various ranged daemon engines of Khorne in the fluff for a while for instance. Khorne has never cared how blood is spilt, just so long as it is spilt. Only exception is not using psychic powers.
>>
>>53384640
So
>I'm going to use aegis defense lines and tank traps to make a Guardsman gunline
comes across as
>I'm going to stack all my Conscripts, infantry squads, heavy weapons teams, characters, and command squads into the forward 6" of my deployment!

>multi-layered means less ground to cover
you were already assuming that you had the minimum amount of ground to cover.

>Single line farther back is a death trap
Pretty sure the real death trap is going to be those Khornezerkers walking across my entire deployment zone because I put my tank traps as far forward as possible.
>>
>>53384640
>Do you even play the game?
Do you? You're acting like pulling units into combat is a big deal, when all it means is gunline armies have to deploy their guys >4“ apart from each other. Even deploying them 4.1” apart will negate that benefit.
Like I said, only a complete retard would ignore that fact, so you're bragging about beating an utter retard who is playing an army they clearly don't know how to play.

>Well that's what your argument came off as, maybe learn how to express yourself if you don't want other people to think you're a retard.

IMO Khorne disdains ranged attacks like boltguns, but loves him some artillery 'cos "machines of brass and blood" makes his dick hard.

Khorne says you're a massive faggot bringing shame on his name. Everyone knows the Blood God doesn't lie, yet here you are making random bullshit about

>>1 hour video of a game where the hypothesis is tested
>>brief, revealing account of an individual person or an incident
Yes, those are the same thing.
An hour isn't that long, and it's a single game.
And if you think one data point it all it takes to prove a hypothesis, never become a scientist, you'll be wasting everyone's time.

We are reaching levels of gaslighting that shouldn't even be possible.

Even more gaslighting. Starting to suspect samefaggotry is at play here.

you admited

Now, what did it come off as?
This post says:
>>53384497
>I'd do the most retarded thing
Which is what you said that
>it came across as
So no, not a strawman, you literally admited the argument came across as "doing the most retarded thing."
So where? Where did anyone besides you claim that was anyone would do?

Who do you think you are fooling Tzeench? You can't gaslight Khorne's chosen.

This is the same guy who was insisting that lascannons did D3 damage not too long ago. He's a troll and you're stupid for replying to it.

Oh shit, I forgot about that. Damn that thread was funny.

But it's the end of the thread, I doubt anyone takes this that seriously.

Never again, faggot.

>If I record it that means it isn't an anecdote
So if I take a picture, it's not an anecdote? What if I write it down, is that not an anecdote? What if I just tell it to you?
Something being true or not isn't the issue with anecdotal evidence, it's that it's one singular thing. It's like saying "person X likes oranges, therefore everyone likes oranges."
You're taking a single data point and making a claim about everything based off of it.
That's the very reason that anecdotal evidence is flawed because:
>Where only one or a few anecdotes are presented, there is a larger chance that they may be unreliable due to cherry-picked or otherwise non-representative samples of typical cases. Similarly, psychologists have found that due to cognitive bias people are more likely to remember notable or unusual examples rather than typical examples.Thus, even when accurate, anecdotal evidence is not necessarily representative of a typical experience.

yeah, once I realised that it kinda took the fun out of it for me. I thought we were dealing with an actual butthurt khornefag for a moment.

*yawn*

>>53385424
I can see that now.
When he does that, it means he knows he's wrong, so no need to reply to him. Rather pathetic really, to childish to just admit he's wrong,

so, we getting a new thread or what? This one stopped being fun.

Lmao retards, eat my improved chainaxes.

>>53385424
Yep.
If I was autistic/bored enough, I would spend the rest of the thread claiming he was gaslighting me to get him upset.

Honestly, at this point I wonder if it's some advanced bot designed just to argue using buzzwords.

Ah. I wasn't too sure if that was you- it seemed quite like it but I couldn't know for sure. So does that mean that you, gaslightanon, and "khorne doesn't like ranged" anon are all the same people? How deep does the lore go?

That wouldn't be too hard to code. Set some sort of variable that counts how many posts have happened since the last reply and if it gets large enough then start making posts about how you've "won" and other such stuff that looks desperate for replies.
