No it's less than a page of fluff per Faction.

Sadly factions who didn't have centurion before from what I can tell still don't but I'm at work and haven't studied them that well.

Other than that things changed Stat wise for a little of units.

Random question I just thought off.

IF suddenly, GW announced extensive new fluff for a primarch or a chapter, wich one would it be, or wich one would /tg/ like it to be?

I heard that Mortarion fluff is coming, and Im exited by it. I also would like new fluff on imperial and crimson fists.

Knowing GW they'll fuck everything up and say that Leman Russ finds Rogal Dorn in the Warp trying to find an honorable death for failing the Emperor (even though he already atoned with the Iron Cage), instead of stating that Dorn has been issuing commands to the Custodes and no one was aware of it because no one bothered to check.

Then Guilliman and Dorn have to have a coming to God-Emperor moment because Guilliman is literally trying to replace the God-Emperor's office and Dorn is tired of his bullshit.

So i haven't looked too closely at the ally rules, how well do Inquisition and Deathwatch seem to mix?

>>
>>53536900
I have yet to control all the point costs for all the unit, what with having to actually check which weapons they have and add the cost, but as a SW player I feel pretty satisfied
They have taken away some speed and power from the TWC but they have gained 3 additional S5 AP-1 attacks each, the Claw units are now really cool if they're with the WG, the Lone Wolf 5 time out of 6 will not lose his last wound against not-mortal wound sources and even in that case it's still a 4+, Murderfang is extremely brutal against heavy elites/monsters, Arjac is awesome...

Yeah, it seems all pretty cool

They might make Guilliman kill Mortarion for real to make him gain face.
Guilliman simply cannot lose and is now Garvien Loken-tier, it'll be another Tyranids over Macragge. Lots of fighting, but in the end allies arrive because the Ultramarines are still a legion and like half of all the Imperial space marines, and you cannot defeat that many so Guilliman wins "proving himself once again the master of the all the myriad disciplines of war"™ and pulls through the day "with heavy casualties"®.
Which is shit, but that's GW's boy Guilliman.
Oh, they might make planet Konor explode or something, like how Tyranids ate Prandium or how Word Bearers ruined Calth's surface. You have to kill the obligatory named planet of the 500 (0.2%) to make it seem like the loyalists came out sufficiently wounded.

Only if they are creating a new unit, they can replaced dead gants without additional points

It interacts with other rules like falling back. It allows you to charge flying vehicles, it allows you to fall back and shoot in the same turn, etc...
>>
>>53537587
Because someone at Britland thought it was a good idea to put everything to the backpage, so you have to go through the book multiple times to look for all points, instead of just looking for the unit and having everything there at once.
>>
>>53537133

Is there any reason to use an GK purifier squad over a strike squad? They:

- cost 7 pts/model more than strike squad dudes
- have exact same gear
- have a (pretty strong but) really short range smite alternative
- don't have teleport strike

they also aren't troops but I'm not sure how much that affects stuff.
>>
>>53537648
Brotherhood Captains extend the range and they can still get more special weapons than the strike squad.

I'm a fan of 1 squad of melee shit, 1 squad of 4 incinerators, in a rhino together thanks to Combat Squads. It's served me well through several editions.
>>
>>53537608

I think it's not in the new book, and will never come back unless they make a new Wazdakka model (since nowadays the rule is "If it haves no model, it's not playable")

Some gear on your Cryptek, or more warriors. Or wraiths maybe.

iirc you can have multiple units in 1 transport in 8th, so you can have a strike squad and purgation squad fulfill the same role. It just seems that the 7 points more is too much for what they offer.

>stormtroopers only 9 points
Well shit
>>
>>53537877
For your theoretical weapon:

When you decide what unit you're shooting at, you roll a d3. That's how many shots you get.

You roll to hit and to wound as normal, bearing the new wound chart in mind.

It makes its save, at -1 to its armour save.

If it fails, one model in the unit per unsaved wound takes d6 damage.

You underestimate how "get off my lawn" tier my crons are.

But seriously, I've already sold of most of what I'm willing to part with. I'll likely it's box all this up and let 'em sit in the attic with the hope next edition will be better.

Okay I've been reading the rules, and I'm confused about the Keywords and detachments. It was implied earlier that if you mixed units with the keyword Imperium, that you would not get access to some "special" CP stuff, but I can't find where in the book it says anything like that. And is there any reason I can't just use a ton of different detachments to make up an Imperium consisting of everything from Admech to Space Marines to SoB to Guard ?

Keywords are just things that abilities check for. Some of them, like Fly, have mechanical effect. Most of them do not.

A SoB canoness gives buffs to her order within range. You pick what order you're from at the start of the game. She doesn't affect anything without her Order.

In time, we'll get codices that give reasons to stick within a certain keyword. Your army will have buffs if you limit yourself so everything has multiple keywords. For now, they all just have to share one - making the aforementioned Imperial Soup happen.

Quick Question regarding points values lads.

I'm looking at the Indexes and the points per unit value obviously says "not including Wargear". But as i look on the Unit profile it states "unit is armed with x"

Example, A Howling Banshee is armed with a shuriken pistol and a power sword.

Banshee is 12 points. Does this include the cost of the power sword? (if not they are 4 pts each, pistols are 0)

Also do you think the games will average at 1850 again?

As long as everything shares at least one Faction Keyword, you can mix and match as much as you'd please. This includes inside detachments.
>>
>>53538196
cost is bare, so you add on the weapons (which is why some are 0 points)

>>53538196

I doesn't include the power sword price, so a Banshee is 16pts.

Okay, just to check I am not crazy:

Since models can now shoot all their weapons, does that mean models with Bolt Pistol and Boltgun can also fire both? So you essentially get 3 bolt shots at 12" (2x Boltgun, 1x Bolt pistol)?

So now with the stats out, is there any reason to take Breachers over Destroyers? I feel like Breachers might actually have a use, as Anti-Vehicle. But fucking Destroyers and their Grav/Plas weapons are really fucking good, as always.

Breachers aren't terrible when thrown into assault though, as they have 2 attacks, and a +3.

Thoughts?

He went into the Iron Cage not wanting to win. He didn't plan, he didn't make formation, he and his soldiers wanted to die as a Legion because they blamed themselves for their Father's death and didn't want to live in a world without him, or even worse betraying his vision.

It wasn't until Guilliman arrived, unwanted, that they realized that they weren't allowed to just give up. Reducing their number only meant reducing and diving the number of human soldiers left to fight Chaos and xenos, and they ultimately accepted their new role as carrying the burden of the God-Emperor's death.

Imperial Fists fight to the death not because a book tells them to, but because their honor compels them to. No matter how much they've lost, they aren't allowed to quit. It's why they have their Pain Glove, not out of a silly tradition like the Space Wolves or Salamanders, but because they can survive the worst pains that can be thrown at them. Physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual pain is nothing to them at this point.

The nauts are a bit more impressive, with a little more speed and a slight increase in durability, plus an attack option for dealing with infantry in close combat (12 S 8 attacks with AP -2).

Nobs are much as they were, except big choppas are slightly better and kombi weapons cost a fortune.

You can assault after you disembark now, but you have to get out at the start of the movement phase which is problematic. Still, with good positioning and a little luck you should be able to get stuck in without a turn of being shot up now which is better.

The combination has potential to do a lot of damage, but it's still a huge investment of points into a relatively slow and inefficient couple of units.

The thing about them is thanks to fixed Hit rolls, a blob of 20 WILL statistically do 8.89 wounds to anything without a MW defence, which isn't actually terrible for 320 points given that will also force 4ish saves. That's a dead Guilliman, and then you have an army of 3++ FnP dickheads, but they never actually fixed the problem with them, which is that they're going to be pinged down handily by pretty much anything and actually now have massive Ld problems because they aren't fearless.

Wondering how to do melee Guard for 8th. Power weapon sergeants seem decent. I feel like Priests won't stack, but if they do them I'll use multiples of them, but if not I'll use a Priest plus Straken and label everyone that I can Catachan. I have 8 Bullgryn so I'll use them too. Conscripts and commissars of course. Not sure what else though. Need ranged Support.

>>
>>53536405

It hurts orders, a lot.


Also did anyone else notice a heavy weapon team are 4pts? A three team squad with heavy bolters is only 30pts. You could have 5 times (15 heavy bolters) for 150pts and just shred orks and tyranids.

72pts if you want lascannons or missle launchers.

To be fair, unlike 8e, AoS is completely different than Fantasy and there was a stretch when Fantasy General was besieged by anons who seemed to exist for the sole purpose in life of reminding them their beloved setting had been wiped off the map (before we found that Fantasy was to be maintained through other mediums).
I don't know why they thought such a message would help on 4chan though, instead of just attracting more trolls

Alright, so let's talk Daemons for a bit.
Nurgle seems like a beast in Melee, resilient and powerful if you use a Great Unclean One and a Herald to buff your dudes.
Plaguedrones are still a must as the only shooty thing in the army outside a GUO.

The problem is: Outside the drones, the army is slow as shit and has no vehicle options.

What would be good units to cover for this problem?

Eldar costs generally went up, especially for vehicles. We also lost holofields and overall didn't change much else so we got a soft Nerf and if you look at our weapons we are in line with everyone else

Lost a lot of flavour - Sicarians lost almost all their movement and durability (literally just 2W Skitarii) and became basic melee infantry at a vastly lowered cost, grav is now S5 -3 Damage 1 (D3 vs 3/2+ saves) Heavy 5.

Doctrinas are gone, in exchange everything has low-level Canticles and HQs project reroll-hits auras. Vanguard remain superb, if slightly less so, plasma calivers are Assault 2 but cheaper, Arquebi are actually decent. Dunecrawlers are our goto heavy weapons now and pretty much our only reliable anti-heavy vehicle with Neutrons aside from loads of plasma.

Still decent, less fun. On the upside, we can actually experiment with builds now. I can see a 5-Dunecrawler Skitarii gunline with supporting Arquebi, some Dragoons and bunkered Kataphrons and Servitors working well.

Maybe flying daemon princes to get up field into combat then summon them in? Would be really unreliable. The loss of deep strike is pretty tough I think. I don't mind paying for summons, but the summon mechanic seems like it will be very unreliable for anything but small units.

I want to try big blob plaguebearers with heralds and GUO to buff. One 10pt instrument gives the whole unit +1" to advances and charges, which is good. LD10, S5 plaguebearers with -1 to hit rolls against them is pretty decent. Gotta get painting.

>>53538816
The entire army must still share a faction keyword, with one exception.
>>53538776
Genestealer Cults have a special exception that lets them field 1 Astra Militarum detachment for every 1 Genestealer Cult detachment. After that, you ignore the Astra Militarum keyword.

Although currently not legal, you could probably pull something similar against a willing opponent for T'au Empire models. I think it's dumb that the Cult allies rule doesn't change <Regiment> to keep you from getting regiment-specific units, so for T'au Auxilliary I'd change the <regiment> to gue'vesa or change both the <regiment> and <sept> to T'ros/Taros or somesuch.

Otherwise, we have the datasheets for guards with individual points per model without equipment, and we have the point costs of standard Tau wargear, so it'd be pretty easy to actually homebrew a gue'vesa unit.

It's really strange. Tau is the only army that I've seen that actually kept a war fear list for upgrades that weren't weapons, and even that's just for suits.

Orks didn't get a list with 'eavy armor and Cybork or anything. Chaos didn't get a generic list of vehicle equipment.

There's no more ways to customize anything for most armies, since anything that was an optional upgrade like that can't be listed under the profile anymore, because points are separate and it has to be on a list

So let me get his straight. GW has just gutted all the flavour and fun unique rules from every faction by the looks of it.

So not only do I have to buy a rulebook and an index, I then have to wait for the inevitable 15 different flavours of space muhreen that get their codexes first and then pray like fuck GW hasn't decided to put my faction in the too hard basket for the one other faction codex they release before we get another 15 flavours of space Marines.


For fucks sake. Don't even get me started on the bullshit they lied about.

I'm quitting 40k, but I'll stick with Horus Heresy as long as it sticks to 7.5e.

Why?
The fluff, mostly. I dislike most of the rules changes, especially the vehicle ones, and have nothing but disdain for the way presentation of the actual lists, but when it comes down to it those are all minor. Rules change, it happens. I can weather bad rules; I've had a lot of practice the past few years. So, though I'm thoroughly disappointed GW found it necessary to build a new game from the ground up, I could have dealt with it.
But bringing back Guilliman, replacing the marines with "better" marines, that stuff they did with Eldar in Gathering Storm, and a host of other fluff changes just kill it for me.
That is not 40k. 40k is a setting in which the main POV faction is a mix of the Nazis, Spanish Inquisition, and the bureaucracy from Gilliam's Brazil. It's a bleak society that cares nothing for its people and is so backwards its faults are cited by its citizens as virtues.
It's a society that takes children, performs invasive body-horror surgeries on them, brainwashes them into killing machines, and uses them to crush resistance, instill fear, and commit wholesale genocide on a regular basis.

And those are the good guys.

The whole aesthetic of 40k is bleakness. Everything was better in the past, current heroes will never live up to ancient legend, and the only hope of deliverance is that someone from the golden past will come back and set things right.
To work, 40k has to remain at the 5 minutes to midnight mark.
Hinting and speculating about the return of heroes, of advancement, is not only good but necessary, but it can never, NEVER actually happen. But GW blew its load all over the setting and actually tried to advance shit. This is the single worst thing they could do to the setting, and it's the reason I'm out. It's just as damaging to 40k to bring back a loyalist primarch as it was to blow up the Warhammer World.
40k is no longer 40k, rules or no rules.

Kombi-Skorcha nobz seem pretty nice. 4+ save for 17 points default, then another 19 on top for the gun little under 40 for the full package, but it's fairly durable and that's about what a Heavy Flamer would cost you in any other army, except without the extra snapshots
>>
>>53539586
>it's a psychic face-eater bug
With 3 attacks, hitting on a 4+ before it takes any damage. It hits hard on each unsaved wound, but it really doesn't have the chops to be in a brawl, and its psychic trickery isn't going to make up the difference. The poor thing's caught between two stools, which I guess is an improvement on just being horribly overcosted, but I'm still not sure I'd take one.

You also have the other psychic power it knows, which can either be a 5+ feel no pain or the ability to make itself or something else advance and charge

It actually seems pretty functional for what it should be. It can either hang back and buff other things while tossing smites, and slowly move forward and shift to buffing itself.

Keep in mind that unlike everyone else, an inquisitor or his lackies can ride along with any deatchwatch team in their transports.

So anything that creates a new unit (via reserves, summoning, or other special rules) requires that I set points aside to bring it into play. However, the wording specifies units ("Each time a unit is added to an army during battle...") which leads me to believe that special rules that add models to existing units (Daemonic Icons, Reanimation Protocols) do not need points set aside. This distinction is reinforced by the note in the Pink Horrors entry that states you have to pay points for the Blue and Brimstone Horrors the Split rule creates.

TL;DR = Bringing a new unit onto the board requires points be paid. Adding models to an existing unit does not.

this is not correct. Sicarians lost 1" of movement and didnt take a hit to durability at all.

>>53540592
Thing is, you can only gunline with crawlers, Kastelans and possibly Kataphrons. Close Assault Vanguard with Infiltrator support is still a thing, and I suspect is how we're going to do things now. Roll the Relentless Kataphrons up behind your Skitarii with a Dominus granting them Reroll 1 To Hit, lay down softening dakka with them and snipe off characters and vehicles with your one Arquebus squad and the Dunecrawlers, then shoot the scattered remains with Vanguard, pop Electromancer and charge in with Hammer of Wrath against any elites. If somebody tries to interrupt your advance, take the hit on Skitarii and then throw in your countercharge infiltrators along with any spare Vanguard and regain their old potency. We're probably still the best rolling advance army out there, even with somewhat less melee capabilities.

>>53540511

They lost Dunestrider, leaving them without their 3" bonus to Charge, lost Feel No Pain 5+ entirely so cutting their durability and the Infiltrators lost Stealth, so likewise.

How do they get more attacks? AFAIK you don't get +1 for 2CCW anymore, so they're exactly where they were before, and can no longer get +1A for charging despite previously beating almost anything at the Initiative game. I will admit that Flechettes got a tad better.

Before they got 1s3 attack from hammer of wrath, 2s5 ap3 attacks from hunting lance each on the charge. Now they 1s3 attack from hooves, 1s5ap-2 attacks from the hunting lance each. The outflanking ability, taking weapons instead of lances for a 2 point discount per weapon, and charging after shooting anything are what might make them a little better, as a combat unit they're still shit.

Not really, they'd average 2 or so wounds on the charge. Their real job is clearly to be cheap, fast objective grabbers.

20 wounds with a 10" move speed for 100 points is going to be impossible to catch and very easy to get into the backline.

Given their placement on the field and lack of vox it's unlikely to have been practical anyway. I'm really seeing a group of backliners for nabbing objectives and sniping fire support.

Yep. That is 100% true, and at the cost of 272 points for two robots and the Datasmith. That's pretty damn good when you can just mount them somewhere and use them as self-repairing turrets. Each additional robot is 110, or 6 points per shot if they only ever do it once. The Datasmith isn't terrible, either. 52 points for a Terminator with double wounds, Power Fist and what's pretty close to a Plasma Pistol.

They are totally getting one of my HS choices. The biggest problem with Mech I'm seeing is lack of anti-vehicle/anti-monster, since two or three Neutron Lasers probably aren't going to cut it with only BS4. Hoping the 8e versions of the Ursarax, Thallax or Myrmidons pack something for that when they show up.

I'm a chaos noob. But now after a bit of quick reading, I realize that you are too.

<Legion> can be replaced by any specific legion keyword. In other words, Noise Marines may be part of the BLACK LEGION or RED CORSAIRS or whatever legion you want, with exceptions.

Plague Marines can also be either in the same legion or a different legion, and still be in the same army.

Death Guard is a specific <Legion> which has specific limitations. Noise Marines and Death Guard may be in the same Chaos army, but a Noise Marine cannot be in the Death Guard legion for reasons, while Plague Marines can.

The extra attack has to be with the chainsword. Other attacks can be with a different weapon.

>hope that everyone is too scared of lascannons to bring a fully armoured list.

Well if you fight the guard armies you're fine. Not because they fear AT weapons but because the guns are w-o-r-t-h-l-e-s-s. Seriously, our exterminator autocannons will do about 2 wounds to one model per turn once the saves are made. Most of the rest are constrained by Heavy D6 shots making them too slow for hordes but too unreliable for monsters. A punisher is okay: 20 shots means 10 hits at strength 5 which will kill about 4 guardsmen or 2 marines. :P

I get it, I do. They can't give the tank everything or it'll be OP. And they buffed the durability and that's great! But all the toughness in the world is meaningless if you can't hurt the enemy. It could be invincible, a 1+ save even! But if it can't reliably kill it's points in enemies over the course of an entire game and it can't do anything other than take and give damage, then it's really not worth your time.
>>
>>53542206
Well it was kinda silly. But they still have better wounds per point than any other unit except conscripts.

Dishing out one S6 hit isn't really going to cut it, anon. They're just bad. If the Torsion Cannon were Heavy 2 or Heavy D3 those would work well, but Arc Weapons are screwed.

I just imagine it saying "Please put down your weapons... You have 3 seconds to comply... 3... 2... 1... " *brrrrrrt*

dakkajet didn't lose shots, it actually lost accuracy and gained gunz! much like the bikes

So daemonic ritual seams broken?
>>
>>53538814
It's probably because it looks like an ununiform mish-mash of different styles
>>
>>53543270
How?
>>
>>53539342
their loss of flavor along with the cult mechanicum models suppose to make up for the nerf makes me want to puke. They are competitive still it looks like just not fun looking anymore.

With a one dice re-roll saved for a potential bad roll, a 50pts herald will be able to summon 150pts of bloodcrushers a turn for an avarage of 3 - 4 turns. A rather risk free investment since you can take a shit ton of characters this edition.

Or am I mistaken?

At least they're not constrained by firing arcs anymore.

Why is Psychic Focus a thing? It seems like such an arbitrary punishment for higher point psyker lists. At 1000 points you can pretty comfortably fit a few psykers and have them all doing interesting things. Once you reach greater psyker numbers (or psykers who use multiple powers a round), a bunch just become boring Smite dispensers. Why? Why nerf psykers in big games?

You have to pay for summons.

>>53543525
It's neutered Tsons

Ahriman for the 3 spells they have then everyone else just vomits Smite

Except Perils is fucking devastating against rubrics, you'll wipe out half the unit every time you do
>>
>>53543541
oh, ok. The wording "you can summon _one new unit_" got me thinking that you didn't. Why would it be new if its already bought and payed for and a part of the force organisation chart?
>>
>>53543658
Because it isn't part of your list.

You can bring literally anything and tailor what you bring against your opponent by summoning it T1, basically

Read the section on Matched Play rules.
>>
>>53543687
Well that's flavorful.
>>
>>53543784
It's also replacing daemon deep strike.

>>53543784
Almost as if it were ... planned
