>blight launcher

Does this confirm that a DG proper box set is coming? Because I don't see anything that could fit that description on the models shown so far. I also wonder if it's gonna be like the Grave Warden launcher and available for terminators. That'd mean Grave Wardens are fully usable in 40k.

>First of all, they keep a pain-ignoring mechanic, which is now called Disgustingly Resilient, as we saw with Nurglings. The best thing about it is that you still get the save, even if you get hit with high Strength weapons that would have previously prevented you from getting a save due to the Instant Death rule.

ID from high strength confirmed.

That's fucking massive, considering the wound inflation.
>>
>>53394267
>that would have previously prevented you from getting a save due to the Instant Death rule.

No, nothing there seems to state ID is still in the game, it seems to have been replaced with multi damage weaponry.

That Lord of Contagion keeps trying to assemble one of those palanquins for himself but there are never enough Nurglings because they pop whenever he tries to sit down. What we see is his latest attempt.
>>
>>53394316
'Previously' as in previous to this rule being added.

I can see no other context in which it would make any sense to add that clause; if there's no ID then this rule is the same as any FnP.
>>
>>53394267
The article was saying that in 7th, Instant Death prevented saves. In 8th, they'd get a save regardless.

It's strange wording, but that was the intention.
>>
>>53394369
Oh wait yeah I see it.

That's really shittily worded then.

>>53394369
>>53394404
I don't even see how it's poorly worded. With knowledge of 7th and the context of the article it absolutely reads how it's supposed to.
>>
>>53394360
No, it pretty much stated "the attacks that previously caused instant death like s10 to t5 did not give you fnp, but now those same attacks give you this new version, but you roll once per the multiple damage that has now replaced ID" pretty much. Nothing in that quote imples that ID is still in the game. Maybe we'll see it as special rules for certain characters though.
>>
>>53394431
It's more that telling you that it would give you a save from ID is redundant if there's no ID.
>>
>>53394431
It talks specifically about high strength weapons for no discernable reason, there were other sources of ID.

?"The best thing about it is that in 8th you still get the save, even if you get hit with weapons with the Instant Death rule."

> However, the fact that those high-Strength weapons usually do more than 1 Damage now, means you may need to take multiple Disgustingly Resilient rolls.

This confuses and concerns me. Are damage rolls before saving throws now? I assumed you hit, wounded, saved, then damage is rolled, but this makes things a to more troublesome if I have to save multiple damage that way.

Or maybe disgustingly resilient only triggers after you fail a save, and after damage is rolled?
>>
>>53395748

Assuming it follows AoS then it will be hit wound save damage. I would assume that disgustingly resilient triggers after damage, but maybe we should go back and look at the nurgling stat block and see what it has to say just to be sure.

>>53404756
Not him but I kind of agree. It looks like a stretched out plasma gun, or like if you cut up a plasma gun beyond the coils and glued it to the back of anther gun.

In fact, what it most reminds me is a conversion I did when I needed some extra plasma guns and only had bolters and plasma pistols. I cut up two plasma pistols so I'd get a longer body and coil section, and then glued it to an arm holding the rear part of a bolter. The end result was a weapon that would be recognised as a plasma gun, but compared to the actual models was longer and more spender-looking.

Some of them aren't as bad as GW have been in the past. But at this point, you have to expect GW to not know when to stop adding stuff in the CAD stuff. IT's gotten pretty endemic now.

Some of the Plague Marines are pretty decent, and the Lord of Contagion just, JUST, falls on the right side of things but yeah, GW overdesigning in CAD doesn't look like it's going away anytime soon.

Those guns dosnt look like lascanons to me what are they? Same as FW(never read it)?

Remove that icon thing from his back, swap the helmet and axe head and you have a pretty cool termi Lord of Nurgle

>what are they

Gonna go off on a limb and assume some poison sprayers. Non-starter version probably come with more options, including a close combat variant.

Don't be retarded.

>>53404756
Maybe after work if the thread's still here.

Basically, the Plasma barrel just looks kinda jammed onto the end of a different gun, like the cleanest Ork weapon ever.

I think the plague marine there has his legs bent slightly more than the primaris guy, so he appears shorter. He's still noticeably taller than the regular marine.
>>
>>53406416
I get what you are saying, but that would be way too much. A gun like that'd savage anything when amassed. The starter unit of seven plague marines would wipe out a unit of Primadonnas in one shooting phase.
>>
>>53407864
Wrong guy I think.
1. Statystycaly speaking 7 DG with those new gun should kill 5 Normal marines.
2.There are only 5 PG
3.Chadmarine have 2W

I think he sees pepe in that helmet and assumes it is there because nurgle's favoured number is 7 while kek, often pictured as pepe, is the god of memetic magic where 7 is the most magically powerful number for some

he is a fag

Damage d3, mate.

>>53406409
Can we get a pic of say a Mk III plastic marine? I want to see how well they stack up being slightly taller.

Brother.
>>
>>53406209
he Death Guard is actually shorter though, and that's despite having a narrower stance, thereby increasing his height comparative to the Big Marine.
>>
>>53408510
So now its sure that we don't get an extra attack for 2CCWs. Great!

Did you read the Dark Fury rule?

>>53412558
That's his point. The fact that it needs a named special rule means it's not a system wide rule anymore.

I'm just going to drill out his face and leave it as an empty hood. Should be spooky enough.

I think highly detailed and individualized models like the starter DG (and DV Chosen) have a problem in that you can't just buy a ton of them to fill the ranks. On something generic like bolter Marines and the Primarines, they just sink into the crowd and giving them slight variations in markings or decorative bits helps to individualize them. But when you have 3 of the same DG plague marines with the same exact, individualized poses, bits and pieces, etc. They stand out more and it's a bit harder to make them different from one another.
>>
>>53413800
that's one of my conerns, but hopefully it won't hurt my eyes that much. All depends on sprues - whether they're monopose snap fits, or you can swap/rotate hands, change shoulderpads or use any kind of customisation.
>>
>>53413876
We know they're snapfits, and some of those poses make it quite clear that there's not much in the way of rearranging anything. Some of the heads might be separate pieces you can turn, but otherwise I'm not expecting the DG models to have much customization options.

I'm gonna get one box, so I can have the rulebook, and use some of the DG as sergeants and such. Hopefully proper plague marine kit isn't far behind, and can be mixed with BoP MkIIIs.
>>
>>53413931
Honestly, I think two boxes should be doable. Those plague marines not holding onto a single gun with both hands should be able to have their arms swapped around with very little issue and I'm sure most heads and backpacks should be flexible, too.
With some additional stuff from a box of blightkings you may be able to do even more.
>>
>>53415060
Problem with hand swapping is the MkIII having the extended vambraces, which extend over the wrist. Not as simple as swapping the hands on a MkVII suit, takes some extra time.
>>
>>53415510
Just buy FW Nurgle, poorfag.

Okay home from work, and did a hasty paint job to illustrate it.

The whole receiver end looks like this fancy tacticool job, and then the barrel is a Plasma Gun ++.

Honestly, I think it might be the tacticool carry handle that's doing it, because it looks super out of place on a 40K weapon.
>>
>>53415817
>FW's CSM shitshow DG with MkII helmets and MkV torsos

Yeah, no thanks, I want MkIII ones, so I'll just wait.

>>53415866
>FW puts carrying handles on plasma guns, meltas, flamers, grenade launchers and lasguns

>GW puts a carrying handle on one plasma gun

I'm not saying it's double standard, but it's been happening so much...

Also, it's plastic so just cut it off.
>>
>>53415866
>carry handle

What carry handle? or are you talking about the rail?

It was a weapon called a Mawcannon on FW's Blight Drone. Possibly just a redesign of that. Or just neat-looking Reaper Autocannons.
>>
>>53416043
No, the carrying handle the rail is attached to.
>>
>>53416054
The Mawcannon was an array of different weapons.

This looks like it had a single pair of guns, which probably will be swappable on a future release.
>>
>>53415976
I never followed FW close enough to ever notice those for one.
For another, I'm not even sure that's exactly what my problem with it is. I don't know if cutting it off would actually even help.

>>53416043
The rail is also a carry handle.
