The Chaos Lord matches the Captain though, so they're probably Primaris like the rumors have said about Death Guard.
Also I want to know how Custodes match up with nuMarines. I need to know if I'll have to extend their legs to tower over the new models.

They may be midgets but holy fuck their basic weapons are some scary shit. Assault 2, 24", S6, AP-2, D3 damage.

You don't know how Slaanesh works, do you?
Daemonettes will still orgasm when they impale these nu-marines same as they do anything else, Slaanesh will always be an orgy of sensation and it's not limited to sex.
If you think Slaanesh marines and daemons don't chill in a pillow covered room/sauna smoking opium, snorting cocaine and listening to lord, discordic music, then you sir are retarded.

How is being taller an advantage? Also, if they are taller how do they fit inside their vehicles?

>>53404305
Gotta be honest - I miss the idea of Noise Marines wielding guitars.

>>53404465
Nothing is stopping you from using green stuff to sculpt the guitars.
Most GW stores would consider it tournament legal.

>>53404334

I think that the Russians solve this by sending all the tall people into infantry and the short people into tanks. It's an old practise from the times of Napoleon.

>>53404525
>Napoleon sending people into tanks

Lol u wot m8

>>53404305
Oh dear, looks like the Chaoslets are still in denial.
Don't worry, You'll get enough good boy points to grow a few mm soon!

>>53404539

Not for tanks, but the tallest soldiers were sent to infantry, while the shorter ones were sent to other jobs.

>>53404553
I don't want Nu-Marines, I'm building my Daemons army right now for one, and for two if my chaos army needs anything, it's daemon engines, I have plenty of noise marines and basic chaos marines, the extra mm seems superfluous to me, and it'd be bad writing for us to get them, they legit just got built. I find it silly enough that you already have Primaris Dreadnoughts, limbs too gangly to go down the ramp without crippling yourself?
Besides all this I don't have some weird insecurity about my height that I need to call people manlets online.

>>53404505
Well, that'd be a while down the line for me.
I've barely managed to assemble my first army; greenstuff's out of my grasp for now.
One day, though, I'm totally going to have to try.

>>53406081
straigthening legs already counts as true scale were you live? wew.
they look ok if you ignore the mutilated feet. but they should be around the size of the new TS sans hat. and those arent true scale, their simply not squatting.

>>53402365
Does anyone else think they went overboard with the scale up to "true-scale". I was expecting them to be about halfway between the current version and the old version, seems a little bit to big for the 28mm scale.

>>53402365

They're still bigger than regular marines

In nu-canon, Plague Marines will be bigger, and their nurgle abilities will tie them with numarines stat wise.

However what will happen in the future is that all marines will be primaris or bigger (for chaos)

It already happened in the Dark Vengeance box set. The chaos marines are bigger and with better poses than the old ones.

>>53406171
Ty

>>53406265
>new TS sans hat
You mean the Thousand Son models?
They're taller. From height comparisons it looks like Primaris Marines will be a similar height to them on the taller side.

And yes most people look at them and say true-scale. Ive even had people tell me that they were too tall. I just thought SM squats were dumb when I made them all.

>>53405390
If they're immune to corruption they aren't human anymore.

>>53406363
Sounds like heresy, start executing false marines then.

>>53406334
You’re probably joking, but this size creep seems to lend credence to the rumors here that GW was reluctant to put these Primaris Marines out there for fear of general nerd rage due to their size. While the Primaris stuff is a bit hamfisted in my opinion, I kinda understand that it was their last ditch attempt to put these models out there.

These are not just “Bigger Marines”, they’re an entirely new line of models that seem to compare to marines like Ogryn do to guardsmen. They’re just to far of the intended effect if you ask me. Sure they look nice, the posing is way better than squat marines and the extra weapon details are supberb, I just feel they went overboard with the add-on of height. The true-scale with the extended legs (and increase of leg thickness in some cases) really did the trick in my mind. While I don’t own a 30k army, I can see HH-fans strongly disliking this move by GW, the size increase is just too far off.

>>53406398
>While I don’t own a 30k army, I can see HH-fans strongly disliking this move by GW

>>53406443
well to be fair, my plan was o make a 1st legion army for 30k and reuse the models as Fallen in 40k >.>

>>53406443
No, but soon /hhg/ will drown in butthurt marinefags who can't deal with their dudes not being the bestest. CSM and MkVII models everywhere soon.

>>53406474

Theres nothing stopping you from doing that. Field Primaris with Fallen "allies", since they share the Imperium codeword. Painting Primaris as fallen though is retarded.

>>53406502
the problem is that in the images so far, they are so tall that normal and 30k marines looks silly by comparison.

It was fine with the cutodes because the size and ornateness of there armour clearly delineates them from marines.

s'why I'm interested in seeing them next to terminators, if they're close to the same size I feel like Primaris/1st company armies would be less jarring to look at

So whats the deal with Nurgle and the Death Guard? Why are they in the focus all of the sudden? Are they gonna do all aligned legions and they just started with the Death Guard?

>>53406398
HOLLY FUCKING SHIT : THEY ARE NOT REPLACING CURRENT MARINES. DO YOU UNDERSTAND ? CAN YOU GRASP THIS SIMPLE CONCEPT YOU MONGOLOID SUBHUMAN PIECE OF SHIT ?

You and your kind have been shitposting all week long about this. Put it to rest allready. Like seriously, shut the fuck up you cunt, you just got an entire range of new models for your army and you find a way to act like you were backstabbed or some shit, meanwhile, Orks have 20+ years old buggies. Were you bitching lile a little pussy when they released the centueions ? No ? Because this here is the exact same thing.

desu the detail they can achieve with zbrush is much higher than they could've gotten with physical sculpts. but shit like the sylvaneth models make me scared to even touch them with how thin some of the parts are.

>>53404586
You're thinking Grenadier companies/regiments. You had to be of a certain height to serve in them, so all the tallest troopers would end up there.

>>53406969

>>53404334
>How is being taller an advantage?
you can see over taller objects and also see slightly farther because you are higher off the ground. Considering space marines wear super fancy ceramite armor and have backup organs and shit i don't think they give a fuck about getting shot as much as a guardsman would.

>>53407415
Yeah that was the among other things, most of them would rather be able to GTFO rather than being trapped in them

>>53407456
Don't forget they can just lie down prone.

For the most part people don't care, and from what I've seen most are in agreement that this was the better way to release truescale marines, since killing the old line off would have pissed off so many more people than the current way they're doing things.

In like 5 years, when most people have Primaris models, they'll probably release a whole new addition that does away with the idea entirely and make it so there's only one type of space marines, and always has been.

It's not that Marines are the best you dummy, it's that the entire focus of the 30K story is the Astartes vs. Astartes conflict.

And in general, people don't shit on playing non-marine armies. Pretty much the only ones who do get shit on, are the people who complain about how there's no Xenos armies in the books, and other shit that doesn't make sense.

>>53409336

This is factually incorrect.
Hence why the tallest people in the world aren;'t the strongest.
If two muscular people are the same weight, in general the shorter person will be much stronger due to more actual muscle mass and less bone/extra meat mass.

I didn't mean using all of them to represent a generic templar army. More a Templar army of Primaris marines. So smaller numbers and such. No idea if that'd work. As much as /tg/ spergs about Marines, I will always like them being space knights and Black Templars are like ultimate space knights.

In any case, either wait for the full rules release or plan to play it with something else all together. Some people think 8th is going to be good, but there are grounds for scepticism by sheer history alone.

Dude, Stop using infinity to try and compete with this shit, because alot of Infinity infantry look like shit.

>>53404586
This is patently wrong, tall guys get picked for guard dooty, and official stuff, because they're scary, infantry need to be average height and fit, to be the most effective compromise between small target area, and still being able to carry your ruck and gear

They lost to right to call themselves human the minute they accepted their primarch's geneseed, anon. That's part of their "tragic Hero" draw.

Yeah, and the entire scope is blocked by the sight on the bolter. It's completely useless.

>>53417835
The sight on a bloter is literally a retarded flap you can't cowitness through

>>53418128
Not all scopes are mounted like that image. Some have the dot on the tip of the front sight.

Also, what makes you think the scope is a regular scope? For example germanium is very reflective of visible light, but transparent to infrared. That's why it's used on military hardware, since a metal lens is more durable than a glass or plastic.

>>53406373
Inquisitor-scale was a mistake and I think GW know that. Why do you think inq28 is becoming a thing, even appearing in white dwarf?

Heavens to betsy, next you'll be telling me that chainswords are impractical because their design precludes them from cutting deep!

40k wargear has never made sense. This game thrives on the rule of cool, not tacticool aesthetics.

>>53418284
Are you saying the scope will work despite being fully blocked by the sight?

>>53418284
The sight is just a metal tab. Even without the scope there wasn't a real sight picture on bolters because no rear sight.

It's not cool to block your scope with a giant foreword sight. It's just stupid.

>>53407456
Also in melee you can leverage more of your weight if you are trying to break a parry. Gravity's a bitch for short sword fighters.

>>53418440
There's rule of cool, and then there's something that the model designers should have realized was a flaw in the look. They could have raised the scope up, or cut off the iron sight, or even made it so that the scope was something you could add on, but nope (from pictures I've seen, the scope is on every one of those bolters). This isn't something that can be excused with '40k is dumb!' It is dumb, but this is an obvious oversight, a mistake.

The end of Fulgrim. Corrupted by Chaos, the first Noise Marines run about liquefying people and orgasming from their exruciating death cries while the mortal humans writhe on the floor in a murder orgy, fucking each other and ripping them apart at the same time. Meanwhile Daemonettes emerge and join the murdering the Marines are performing.

Again, if you think Slaanesh is fun, nice, or anything other than a Hellraiser style horror show that would have you puking your guts out if you saw it for real from disgust, you don't know Slaanesh. Slanesh is not the xDDD BEWBS god.

You read right. They stick fuel on the doors. Which not only have thinner/weaker armor, but also light the fuck up if anything pens the armor. And because it's an IFV, everything pens the armor.

A good idea. Marinelets will be phased out in an edition or 2 anyway

>>53423288

I love it also. And a whole thread of scientifically backed discussion comparing the armor of Lemand Russes and real life tanks.

In a setting where people run out of a trench to hit people in the other trench with a chainsaw sword.

In a setting where infantry attacks infantry by digging trenches and sitting in them.

In a setting where you teleport people on board of a ship to plant a bomb, instead of teleporting the fucking bomb.

>>53423288
How is it Autism to point out when something doesn't make sense? It doesn't even make sense in the context of the universe. There's no "rule of cool" the designers just made a mistake.

>>53423456


Not >>53423288 but dude, most of what is happening in this setting doesn't make sense. I am cool with that, I love 40k partially because of that, but discussing things like "how can a genetically engineered super-super soldier hit anything with his super-super rocket launching assault rifle hit anything with a sight like that" IS autism.

>>53418623
If it's an infrared scope and the front sight is made of germanium. From what I can read, the scope would see through the metal.

>>53418749
>no rear sight

Unless it's folded down somewhere.

Would think sights on a bolter are very last resort, since they're hooked to your helmet HUD and you can basically fire sniper shots from the hip due to ballistic augurs and shit.

I think he meant that the British cannot legally own even less lethal firearms.

Americans tend to speak like that, it takes time to get used to it.

>>53418128
The thing about bolt guns is they have built in optics at the front of the gun that is directly interfaced into the marine via his suit. The marine doesnt need to traditionally aim when its displayed on his hud kind of like fps shooters with hip shooting.
