With D6 shots, which makes them simultaneously better and worse. On balance, they're better, but AoS has taught me not to trust random values to be in any way reliable.

>>
>>53533122
Looked at em now. Terminators are now pretty expensive seeing they are 32+whatever a powerfist is but seeing Termies are now 2 wounds maybe it makes up for it, I don't know.
>>
>>53532868
Guard is awesome. Some people complain that the LR Battle Cannon got nerfed when dealing with infantry mobs, but it is now better against heavier targets. Plus, you still have heavy bolters and flamers for weakilngs (and sponsons are great now since apparently they can finally shoot at different targets). Executioner LR variant (heavy 4 s7 ap-1 d2) with 3 heavy bolters can now murder Marines like there is no tomorrow.

And veterans? Apparently, sarges can now take ANY special weapon, one guy can take a heavy flamer, two form a heavy weapon team and three MORE (it is worded as UP TO 3 ANOTHER) can take any special weapon they want. So, for example, 4 meltas, 1 heavy flamer and 1 lascannon in a single squad with BS 3+ . Their firepower is fucking insane for the cost.
>>
>>53533129
I won't comment on rules balance because I've yet to play it, but one dumb thing I noticed is sternguard have "specialist boltguns" with all the ammo types built into one shot (S4, 30", ap -2), while deathwatch keep their three variant ammunition types unchanged.

It does mean deathwatch are a whole lot better at wounding big monsters, though.
>>
>>53533051
Are you retarded? Quantum shields are trash, living metal is bad and their best anti tank shooting is 75 points per lascannon. Necrons are probably the worse faction we've seen in 8th so far.

Because Orks aren't allowed to have nice things, right!
Never mind that flamers have actually gotten worse for orks
Never mind that that special rule makes them (unit size) times less reliable than other flamer units
Never mind that every other flamer gets d6 shots
Because Burnas were objectively the most OP unit in the game, and we can't let orks have nice things.
>>
>>53533203
Still too expensive for what it does.

Oh shit, one thing about deathwatch now is that you can take squads of 10 vanguard veterans and 10 bikes

basic deathwatch vets have gone down in price, mind

My 500-point ally list is still about 500 points in the new system, and as far as rules go is relatively untouched (though I'll have to paint two teleport homers since they cost no points).
>>
>>53533225
I agree, that's fucking retarded.

Tell me they're at least 2/3 the points?
>>
Oh shit, just checked, A 32 point terminator for deathwatch does indeed come stock with a powerfist and stormbolter. Overall very happy with this change! Veterans are now 19 points from 22 points but the trade off is that some weapons are now more costly, for example the deathwatch frag cannon is now 30 points, upped from 25.
>>
So,

How is it so far, /tg/?
>>
>>53533165
>5"
That's never going to be a problem when you can dump your slow infantry in the face of enemies with night's schytes turn1. Also Destroyer Lords and Canoptek Wraiths are as good as ever.
>>53533194
Heavy Destroyers were, are and will always be overcosted useless shit. You're not really making a good argument for why Necrons are bad by picking one of the most underpowered units in the army, it's like saying Eldars are bad because their melee unit the assault guardians are bad at melee.

I like them just fine, I own a platoon of them. But I also own 6 squads of vets.

And it's a very obvious ploy by GW. Scions have official models, Vets don't.

Ahriman, a squad of Rubricae and a Land Raider.

because burnas also have a melee profile and the two profiles are no longer mutually exclusive.

I do 2000 points of a full army for deathwatch so this is extra special for me. Might also ally custodians in for shits and giggles down the line.

Infernus heavy bolter is 25 points, upped from 20. You gotta keep in mind though that heavy weapons got a huge buff this edition, so we no longer have to fire snapshots after moving but instead a meager -1 to hit. Also heavy flamers are awesome.
>>
>>53533255
Heavy destroyers are the best AT Necrons get in 8th, point for point. That's the whole issue - they've got shit for high quality shooting. The next best thing costs 174 points and it's the Triarch stalker which is T6 and degrades. Necrons are actual trash now.

Flash gitz and lootas are also pretty good, I just have no comprehension of what possessed them to nerf some of the weakest units and choices in the game in other parts of the index.
I'm not buying an index. I've decided. I'm going to wait until they give us actual rules we can play our armies with, not ones for little timmy who stuck the pauldrons on backwards.
>>
>>53533312
High power anti-tank was never a Necron strong point, and again you're also taking the worst unit out of the faction to make a case for it, do you remember any list that won tournaments that run Doomscythes, Apocalypse Barges or Heavy Destroyers? I don't, the closest thing i saw as dedicated AT was a Triarch Stalker to deal with AV14 spam but that's it. Those list were always heavy on the melee side and that's how Necrons deal with vehicles, you just charge them and wreck them with with Warschytes and Wraiths.

>Magnus charges a Knight, with Prescience on. 8 attacks on charge, auto-hitting and generating 2.66 more thanks to Death to the False Emperor and Prescience. S16 vs T8, so wounding on 2s, for 9 wounds. Knight gets no saves due -4 AP. Knight takes 27 damage and dies.

If he doesn't auto-hit and has to reroll 1s, he could get even more attack from Death to the Emperor on average, to say nothing of Mortal Wounds he gets on top of all of this.

Deathwatch isn't really a chapter thats why I'm perplexed...

They do have strong shooting though, they're more accurate than Tau and they can theoretically shoot infinitely, with exploding shooting phases.
I'm fucking pissed about looted wagons though. GW does realise that in order to make a looted wagon I need to buy a vehicle kit and some ork kits, for the parts? They make MORE money by giving us looted wagons? No, of course not, just buy more 76 pt trukks.

Nobody used to run them because S7 was good, and gauss was dangerous to vehicles. Neither of those are true now. Also, warscythes got nerfed as well, they were armourbane and are now basically autocannons. You are just wrong on this.

Has been this page posted yet? I see that many chapters are getting Primadonnas, including the Raven Guard

In the right column there are the two new chapters I knew, the Fulminators and the Blades of Vengeance but I can't read the third one, which by the looks of it seems a White Scars successor.

Anybody has a readable pic of this one?

Also are elysians going to get a product line update?
When are other factions getting FW model rules?
I mean, more than half my collection is forgeworld so I'd only be able to play max 1500 point games with the new points cost with gw stuff, thought I could always use FW stuff as proxies for similar size+role gw models
>>
So... I can't use primaris with deathwatch...

Why live...
>>
>>53533570
No special rules. Basically just an extra -1 AP over similar guns in other factions.
>>
>>53533547
Then why are so many Nid players bitching? Orks also got fucked in the ass through point costs. Chaos lost pretty much all of it's flavor while getting weaker overall. DEldar are just worst Eldar, Tau got just btfo and Guard lost a shit-ton of flexibility. And apparently Necrons have been stripped of reliable AV options.

I'm happy for Deathwatch, but this edition has been a disaster so far.

So reading through the leaks and I need to be told this is wrong otherwise it'll be stupid

It says you can take an item from the melee weapons list on an overlord and the melee weapon list is every necron melee weapon. So whats stopping me from giving my Overlord Nightbringers d6 damage fleshbane scythe.

I have a question about Guard Keywords. So for Straken, he gives all Catachan units within 6 inches a bonus melee attack. I've been using a count as Straken since 5th that isn't Catachan. Can I just say all my units are Catachan for rules purposes even though some models are Cadians and others are an assortment of models?

>>53533500

Necron vehicles with quantum shields, T6 and 4+ armor saves take noticeably less damage than predators from krak missiles and lascannons. They take noticeably less damage than Russes from lascannons and about equal (slightly less but the percentages are in low single digits) from krak missiles.

It's a mixed bag.

Vets are Elite
Special weapon squads are Elite
Heavy Weapon Squads are Heavy Support
No Platoons
Infantry Squads are 10 men for 1 troop choice for 4 points for each guy
Conscripts are a 20-50 blob squad 3 points
Commissars have AoE Leadership bonus and within 6 inches you won't lose more than 1 guy from battleshock
Orders are 6 inches but auto pass
Vox casters need to be in the command unit and the infantry unit, but that extends order range to 18 inches
Priests give a plus 1 attack AoE bonus
Chimeras cost 10 points more
Bullgryn are largely unchanged but their mauls are better and slabshields give a 2+ save, they are cheaper too
Tauroxs are fast and deliver tons of dakka especially the prime model
>>53533846
Conscript blobs still are, you can have up to 50 same as before.

So I'm totally up the nerfs/buffs in the new CSM entries (Based on one of the imgur albums). I'm ignoring special characters and cult units, and instead focusing on the stuff available to all CSM.


Chaos Lords got buffed.
Chaos Sorcerers got buffed for beatstick status, but nerfed hard on their casting.
Dark Apostles got nerfed.
Daemon Princes got buffed (Tougher, automatically casters with marks)
Warpsmiths got buffed.
CSM got mildly nerfed (May no longer take both bolters and chainswords)
Cultists got nerfed
Terminators got locked into power axes, look identical otherwise other than the terminator changes (-1 move, +1 wound)
Warp Talons got a mild buff
Spawn got buffed.
Heldrakes got nerfed.
Land Raiders got buffed.
Chosen got nerfed.
Possessed got nerfed.
Helbrutes got a slight buff in the form of crazed being reworked.
Mutilators got nerfed
Bikers got nerfed
Raptors got nerfed
Forgefiends got nerfed
Maulerfiends got nerfed
Defilers got nerfed
Vindicators got nerfed (Demolisher cannons are garbage now)
Obliterators got nerfed.

Worth noting - No daemon weapons, havoc launchers are trash, Icons are very meh.

My verdict is we're below 6e.

>>53533811
We still have them. Forgeworld makes Nob Biker models. That's the only reason. They'd remove Ghazghkull if they stopped selling his model.
In terms of stuff not with us anymore thats pretty recent:
Grukk face-rippa
Eavy armour boyz
Naked Nobz
All vehicle equipment and relics (seems to be universal)
It's not as bad as the 7ed codex in terms of removing things, but these indices in general are much more dumbed down than what we were lead to believe.
>>
>>53533953
points are in the back of the indexes.

>>53533947
Oh what seriously? I must have misread that. So Slabshields are better all around? I might end up having to break some of my Bullgryn to get the right gear.

>>53533956
Well, Scions are troops now so that's some 3+ shooting. And yes I think they are some kind of hybrid thing. There are theories that they were shoved to the elite section because they don't technically have models.
>>
>>53533964
It was only a week ago people were excited for 8th. I think people are really really overreacting to the changes.
>>
>>53533945
They won't, but both are now worse. Ectoplasma cannons/hades autocannons are bad, and maulerfiends are now slower.
>>
>>53533891

They have improved AP. Two rapid firing necron warriors do the same damage against a predator as an autocannon. Immortals do more.

Depends on what you think will be shooting them, I think.

0 and -1 mods? the slabshield is better
-2 mod? they are the same
with -3 mods, the brute shields are better

Since big guns and special close combat weapons are what the club guys'll be facing most of the time (and also what will be the most dangerous, with the multi-damage hits), I think the brute shields would be the better choice over all.
>>
>>53534001
>one command point
>>
>>53533950
Yeah I mostly agree.

Heldrake is odd now that they flyers are different. I don't think it's nerf but.

The selection lockdown for world eaters and death guard makes no sense. Removing roles != As fixing the rule set.

Such a shame since the core game looks a lot better but the points changes (and retarded index layout) increased the barrier for new players.
>>
>>53534017
Ah okay. Right now I have 4 with Powermaul and Brute shield and 4 with Slab and Grenade Gauntlet. Maybe I'll just keep them that way for now and if I find a better combination I'll break em up. I was going to magnetize the shields but I got lazy. I regret that now. I have magnets inside the little shield holder thing, hah.

When I was new to the hobby I changed the blad eon my hobby knife a few months in. Wanting to see how much plastic it could cut through, I positioned it on one side of a thick Chaos Marine bit I didn't need, and put all my weight on the blade pushing it away, while drawing the bit in. After a few seconds of force, the blade blew right through the plastic and the side of my finger. Probably the stupidest thing I've ever done. I completely lucked out on the angle and location it cut me, missed every tendon, muscle and vein possible. No stitches afterward, just put superglue on that bitch.

They are still only toughness 3 and given that stats are no longer capped at 10, I suspect big things like Knights will be untouchable, though that's what Arc Rifles are for. Shame about Rangers though, they are now totally useless.

That is how I see them. With S7 and T6/7 fly, decent ranged weapons and 30" movement they rush shit.

However I play death guard so I can't take them. Even though there is no buffs that I can see for not using the chaos keyword instead

Anyone can find chaplains in power armor on the leaks? seems like they forgot that model exists and gave it no rules, Mines got a damn jump pack on it too.
>>
>>53533964
>So nothing is shit, they just brought the power level down.
Except for marine infantry and tyranids, which got significantly better. Also, everything else kind of got shafted equally, so orks are still bottom of the heap, eldar are still good. Just marines got bumped to the top and tyranids to the middle.

Two squads of Rangers with 4 Arquebi between them is my first thought, because fuck your Chaos Lords and Captains, but then I realized that Bulky isn't a thing anymore and I could feasibly fire my Kataphron Destroyers from it and create a total killing field.

Or, best of all, 5 Rangers with two Arquebi AND three Kataphrons, for when you want the buffs to go away before throwing 15 S5 -3 shots downrange.
>>
>>53534151
D2 or more works
any negative modifier on the armor roll also works

if the rules are anything like age of sigmarines, rolls of 1 will always fail, though I haven't bothered looking the core rules changes up yet

It used to be 2 per unit max didn't it?
That is a handy change.

>>53534017
Remember that you get +1 to saves in cover, so effectively lascannons are only -2 and krak missiles and battlecannons are -1.

Given the far superior aesthetics of the slab shield, I'll take them any day.

Of course, you can also mix them in a unit and choose which one to take the hit on so long as you aren't wounded.

So far it seems to be the best. Depending on the Executioner Cost, that might be okay too. I also think the Eradicator will be useful. I'm sure some units will get multiple cover buffs, so that will be nice for negating that.

Don't forget to count all your guys as "Catachan" even if they aren't technically the Catachan models because Straken also gives a 6 inch plus 1 Attack. You can stack that one with the Priest so you end up with 3 Attacks per normal dude.

Hopefully, but that's a baffling and awful way of going about it. Custom regiments would be fucked in denial, and if there's really a restriction like, "Salamander Captains can take art armor" or "Inquisitor Dicksucciest acolytes can take power armor," that'd be lame-o to the max. It's not currently removed in a way that's easily fixed by adding tactics/regiments/ordos/etc.

I have a couple trans friends, they're good people and they don't look half bad, but I could never be attracted to them. It's like the uncanny valley, you can just tell something is off.
Probably need some procedure that can radically alter natural bone structure to get rid of that effect.
Or maybe I'm biased since I know they're trans.

Doesn't look like it, they may have been relegated back to the Forge World index since they're the only ones who sell the conversion kits.
>>
>>53534949
I could do that but i am the one who usually likes to be tortured. So it would be kinda hard to inflict that on others.
So hyped that death company got a 5 point decrease even if they are slightly worse off now. Also i can just take a detachment where i never have to use troops its so awesome.
>>
>>53535014
Also possible, though it really makes the decision to make him 400 points a little questionable

Only conditionally. Against anything d1 (so most things) they still get it. Plus if you stick Ahriman or an Exalted Sorcerer behind them they reroll ones.

I don't know about you, but I'd much rather be better against the 15 small arms fire shots coming in than the 3 big ones.

I totally get you. Sometimes people want me to be the aggressive dominant one and I'm much more masochistic than sadistic.

Also, for Sisters of Silence, how do you put them into an army? Do you just make an Imperium army rather than a specific army like Guard or Marines? From what I remember you lose command points if they come from different factions.

Cons

>Attack Characteristic degrades faster
>5++ vs. 4++
>Costs 60pts more

Pros:
>Doubles Smite's Range to 36"
>Can cast 3 of your 4 Powers
>Grants D3 Command Points

Did they state if a single Psyker can Smite multiple times?
>>
>>53534827
How do you know? Unless this is just an obvious house rule. I mean, it says he can't issue orders to characters and he IS a character
>>
>>53535048
>Only conditionally.
No they lost Favoured of Tzeentch which Rubrics, Tzaangors and other units still have and didnt get a points drop. Also you read the reroll wrong its only for Invuns so that 3++ would be really nice with All is Dust wouldnt it?
>>
>>53534320

50% chance to fight twice each fight phase too, but the are like 129 points so not cheap.
>>
>>53535076
Not sure. Still weird that if you bring Kairos, any other psyker is just contributing extra smites. Psychic Focus why.
>>
>>53535076
>Did they state if a single Psyker can Smite multiple times?
Psykers can still only attempt to cast a spell once. Its in the main rules.

Cool. I figured as much. So being able to Cast 3 Powers means shit when you only have a maximum of powers you can cast 3+X

>X = the number of Psykers in your army.
>>
>>53535076

Also pros: +2S and additional -1 ap modifier, damage d6 instead of 3

Hol up.

So, points costs. Does the stuff the model is listed as having by default factored into the price, or is that them naked with everything else having to be bought?

For instance, for a Broadside battle suit, it costs 80 points, but has two missile pods and two smart missile systems, which come in at a further 122 points.

Is that correct? I know 2000 is becoming the "norm" but 202 points for a model that previously cost 65 seems ridiculous.
>>
>>53535263
Everyones looking bland. Better hope you get a codex soon otherwise who ever gets them first will demolish you just because they have special rules and strategems.

One thing I did not realise is that without the Vox Caster the orders are just 6" range.
And if you give the Vox Caster to the units, you lose damage output, especially in the command ones.
Truth to be told, you have more control now on how you deploy in case of the Scions.

I want balance as much as the next guy, but is anyone else feeling like nothing really stands out as a killer option?

I haven't gone "Oooh, it'll be cool to take that this time around!", more like "Oh, well, maybe the rules will get updated for my *unit*....I hope"
>>
>>53535290
You got to pay for basic equipment. And yes, everything that is not infantry got way more expensive.
>>
>>53535119
Absolutely. It's cute and round and my breasts rest nicely ontop of it when I lean forward. I'll leave you to think on it but I'm going to stay on topic now.

Looking at Guard characters none of them seem particularly great. Straken got nerfed pretty hard. Yarrick seems okay, but expensive. Harker and Kell seem to be the best bang for their buck. Creed could be good depending on how good Command Points are. Lord knows the Guard can get tons of Command Points this edition with how cheap the troops, heavy support and elite options can be.
>>
>>53535351
Well, that is kind of the downside of balance. Nothing can be too powerful or you have no balance anymore.
>>
>>53535296
That's a good feel when someone posts my drawing I made like 7 years ago. Also, Inquisition stuff is love.
>>
>>53535263
Yea but that is entirely because these are just the bare minimum rules to play. When the codexes come out i think everything will look at lot better. Hell i mean i think every codex has at least one mention of different keywords such as
Clans and Chapters so i assume they will all get their own special rules.

>>
>>53533540
What about my standard Ork boyz?
>>
>>53533276

Okay, so the Index books are, in fact, just kind of a basic placeholder. Codexes are where they'll stuff the things that make the factions more unique.

Also, I suspect every unit with a <Keyword> in those kind of brackets, like Space Marine <Chapter>, Sororitas <Order>, Adeptus Mechanicus <Forge World>, and Ork <Klan> are placeholders for sub-faction buffs or bonuses they might get. That or you can run each separate detachment as its own different one.

So it seems everyone's getting some sort of distinguishing sub-faction per Codex which can give them character.

Guard bodies mostly got cheaper, shooting though not as crazy as the stuff everyone was throwing around in 7E, looks pretty well comparable to everything else in 8. Particularly some niche choices like sentinels and storm troopers look like they'll be pretty decent. The number of weapons a baneblade can mount plus a hefty toughness boost and point reduction actually make it look like a decent choice. Oh and we will have a disgustingly easy time filling detachments for extra command points.
