You keep saying this shit, and it has to be only you that's this retarded, but that list is completely legal even using GW's exact rules.

2000 points is "up to 3 detachments". That army uses 3 detachments. It doesn't use any gimmick detachments, it only uses the basic battalion, and two of the alternative detachments that replace the troop requirement with another slot like elite or fast attack.

So bare with me on this, characteristics are no longer capped at 10 now, so if you take a DE Succubus (LD8) with splintermind (LD+2) and Inspiring Leader (LD+1) you end up with Leadership 11.

Then you drop her in a Tantalus and every friendly model within line of sight that isnt in cover gets to use her leadership 11.

I've had a quick look at the relevant sections in the rulebook, and cant find anything that prohibits this, am I missing something?

Because most modern human 40k models are too large. At least the entire cadians line seems to imply that humans are just as large as space marines.

Rather than fixing that, GW decided to make bigger marines instead.

Most Orks are Boyz, and are 6ft tall, hunched over, which they always are.

That's my point. Marines are scaled pretty accurately against Xenos.

He predicted a resurgence of the traitor legions since they'd failed to wipe them out during the scouring and wanted some big guns on his side. And guess what he was fucking right about the traitors coming back for round 2 even before he got shanked by the snake hoe.

f he could have had the Primaris Marines with him before he died I'm sure he would have, but they werent finished so he went without.
>>
>>54047158
I don't think anybody would have been upset if GW sold bigger marines as an alternative without any explanation why they were larger. The lore is just so bad that it is actively making people decide against buying primaris models.

Hmm well okay one good thing I can draw from that:

I was thinking to myself that since Dreadnought Drop Pods are inexcusably overpriced I might want a Stormraven in really big games for my all-dread army to drop someone off in enemy lines, but I was thinking to myself "How can I know a Stormraven isn't largely dead points if it's not using it's full transport capacity"

Well that's how I know: A tourneyfag thought they were good enough to spam empty, and he won.

Okay so how much anti-horde firepower do you have? If you score 20 wounds to a unit it'll lose 16+d6 models, meaning you still haven't completely killed that one unit.

Quick napkin math:

1000 shots
500 hits (4+)
83 wounds (6+)
14 unsaved (2+)

If there's a -1 hit buff (like from a plane, or psyker power, or smoke launcher) it drops to 9 wounds.

With a -2 hit buff (ghostkeels) it goes down to 4-5 wounds

That's a best case scenario where all of your guys are in range and able to shoot at the same target. Given how easy that would be to disrupt, I'm not too impressed.

Hmm, I really need to pick up my slack with my orks, so much to do.
But on the other hand I also want to start something new for 8th edition...
I'd like to do something with Celestine be it a conversion or something, but sisters are out of question for lack of models.
I'd also like the idea of running with the Visarch and Yvraine as DEldar Archon/succubus, but I got no clues on how to DEldar.
A big bug tyranid army would also be something I'm interested in.
But who knows what'll come out after the initial primaris and death guard Releases...

So I'm reading the R&H section of the FW index for Astra Militarum and the renegade commander is given a 5+ invuln save from his refractor field but at the same time can take a mark of nurgle which gives him a 6+ invuln save against attacks below strength 4. Does this stack?

With a -1 to hit:
4+ save will take 27-28 wounds - if he splits his fire between 2 targets he is likely to destroy both in one turn
3+ save will take 18-19 wounds, which is enough to stop him from blowing up 2 per turn

Leadership doesnt really effect conscript spam. They'll lose 1 guy at most because of the commissars.

Even if you snipe the commissars he'll use 2CP to auto pass morale tests.

With -2 to hit and 3+ you're looking at 9-10 wounds, which is really good because it means he can't (on average) kill 1 plane per turn in a best case scenario.

Not as many as you think, since damage doesn't spill over his multidamage attacks are inefficient against infantry. The most the Wraithknight can kill in the Fight phase is 12 with his titanic feet, and that assumes they all hit/wound - at 3+/2+ you're looking at killing 6-7 per Fight phase.

The problem with blast weapons as they are is they are very good agains tanks (3.5 battlecannon shots = 1.75 hits is quite better than 1) but really crappy against blobs (where you used to get 6-8 units in with a good scatter and 3-4 with a bad one)

Faith powers are literally psychic in nature. That's why the Pylons severed the connection of Celestine to her powers.

Acts of Faith are basically the human version of the Ork's psychic gestalt field. It's the power of belief, of faith.

Regardless, hating religion is dumb anyway.

20-40 Cultists is standard objective holder / hero shield in any Chaos force, it's hardly "loads" and it's fluffy - plus it's 2 separate 20 man mobs, so not too awful to move around and your guns + morale will bring them down.

Are you really playing with faggots who take 500+ Guard? refuse to play that boring shithead then
>>
>>54047889

Yeah, I'm a SOB player and I'm happy to admit it's warp based.

Though I'd be a bit more hesitant to call it psychic. It's an issue with 40k not really having a good separation terminology-wise of 'Done by a psyker' and 'Warp based but not done by a psyker'. As those sort of psyker powers work with specific rules that other stuff can often get around.

But either way, it's warp based and faith is the channel by which it's accessed.

Celestine and Sistas powers stems from the Emperor, not their faith. It's shown that that kind of power can fall upon even faithless dudes like most of the marines.

Again, it's not faith that empowers them. It's the Emperor of Mankind lending his power in a way that's no different than the other Warp deities.

Hej guys. Total 40k newfag here.

I've been thinking about getting a few primaris starter set marines just to built, convert and paint. I'm a warhamms fantasy oldfag with 18 or so years of modelling/painting/converting experience and I always thought about converting a small army of truescale marines. This is why the new miniatures really interest me. I have some questions though:

1) Are Primaris marines just normal marines that are easier to trademark? If not, will I have problems should I ever decide to play my primaris as normal marines?

2) Is it known if GW will replace all the puny old vehicles to fit with the new scale? I ony saw a dreadnought and a hover tank that I guess could be converted to other tanks as well.

3) Where would I find a good and balanced starter list for SM? How far will I get with base box marines and converted base box marines.

TY.

Individually, other than WBs, Orks are just latent psykers. On their own, an Ork is no more psychic than a rock. It's their collective psychic potential that manifests as the Waaagh!

That's for guys who can wield the Warp in the form of spells and magic.

Not really. Faith is not required. It's drawing the attention of the Emperor that's what's needed. The Sisters are jumping down and yelling at the Emperor the hardest so they get the lion share of his power.

BUT if a faithless person somehow managed to catch the attention of the Emperor, then he will gain access to the same kind of powers.

All previous Ork codexes open with the many Imperil theories about Ork reproduction.

Feels weird that the Knight Porphyrion is a 795 point unit and the Warhound is a 1500 point unit when they have almost the same physical size.

Those things cost 209 points before war gear, my battle tank commanders cost 209 points total. The battle cannon and Lascannon combo is just good enough to do the job I find.

So I just concentrate fire until they hit 6 wounds. Riptides hitting on a 5+ or burning markerlights to hit in a 4+ do not scare me. Especially when Pask lets me pop smoke after shooting.

How good an idea is it to take a combimelta on my rhinos? Bumps up their price by a large amount, but makes it so i can drive-by enemy tanks, and if its transporting ten plague marines with four special weapons thats a respectable amount of dakka. I was thinking three rhinos full of plagues with special weapons (melta/plasma/blight launchers), a predator annihilator, two bloat drones, a lord in with all the plasma marines and a winged prince. This leaves me with around 200 points to bring a chaos contemptor or some such

Try that. It sounds like great fun. Maybe add some more Plaguemarines or something when you get bored of Poxwalkers and you have a sweet list.
>>
>>54048217

Eh, WHFB was pretty high fantasy: Very prevalent magic, Bloodthirsters and Dragon riders and shit.

AoS is more like.... It doesn't really fit into normal fantasy categories because it's just kinda arbitrary shit happening in quasi-stable zones of reality in the warp. The world is gone, now people are trying to eke out a living in an unstable hellscape with just barely enough permanence you can build a town on an upside down sphere of platinum orbiting a sky dragon's arse and pretend for a few decades everything is okay.

The hatred is easy to understand. Imagine 40k getting replaced by warmachine then everything getting square bases and finally one year after it comes out they decide to add points to the game. Also they squatted Bretonnia and Tomb Kings.
>>
>>54048375

Not a fan, makes your metal boxes more expensive (as you noted) AND makes them more of a priority target (meltas rushing at you always are). Both are thing you want to avoid.

Slap a cheap combi-bolter for some minor additional anti-infantry, for 2pt it's a steal.
>>
>>54048486
stock cultists with autoguns or melee weapons? for mixture of both in ur opinion?
>>
>>54048489
Theyre not squatted

They are still playable and TK are actually one of the best armies in the game
>>
>>54048486

It kinda matters, rushing the conscript forward leaves you open to flying models dropping behind them and showering your sorcerer with plasma
>>
>>54048503

They flushed the entire model line, they are completely squatted.

The only thing keeping them somewhat around is that legacy rules aren't banned when their models go.
>>

>>
>>54048420
I feel like that much t7 will be tough for most enemy forces to break quickly, and hopefully they should ignore the rhinos long enough for two or three shots from the combimeltas. Once the marines get close enough to shoot, they should be able to put out enough fire to kill priority targets.
>>54048493
When theres three of them, two bloat drones, a predator and i found i can fit in a heldrake too, that should be too many t7 targets to easily focus-fire unless the enemy is literally made of lascannons

Yes I do. They're scoured from the model line and fluff and won't get rules again.

If original squats had been squatted mid-edition it'd have been exactly the same deal.

>>54048591
It's an entirely different thing and you know it.
FW love sucking marine cock and will continue to do so in 30k, where the term "Marines" has all but been replaced with Legionnaires.

But in 40k, both in fluff and in models, old marines are being phased out and replaced with the superior product. Someone post that bit from Dark Imperium about how Girlyman intends to just slowly replace all old marines with Primaris, just as they always feared after the Thunder Warriors.
>>
>>54048627
You dumb fuck, squat means they have also been removed completely from the lore and just been entirely erased. A range can be discontinued but still exist in the setting, and Tomb Kings as well as Khemri Constructs actually do still exist in AoS setting.

Genuine question

Are Primaris actually worth the points? I'm considering having no Primaris in my Space Wolves army; I'll be able to field more units and have more tactical variety seeing as how the Primaris intercessors are boltgun only; or hellblasters are plasma only. Plus I'll be honest; I don't like the look of any of the new models. They're very plain.
>>
>>54049031
At the moment they're not really worth the points
We'll have to wait and see how their updated codex treats them, along with new units like the Reivers and the Gravis terminator dudes
>>
>>54049031
Yes, they are. They are better than marines for the most part. They just lack the in squad variability.

Primaris deathwatch when?
>>
>>54049056
Right now they're just melee marines without melee gear that cost more than normal marines
not worth it
>>
>>54049031

Yeah intercessors aren't really worth the points, and Inceptors are basically crisis suits which isn't really a good thematic fit for a space wolves army even if you did like their ridiculous models.

The plasma dudes are okay, but honestly a plasma Devastator squad does their job a bit better.

Plan is to dump the Poxwalkers, Typhus and Necrosius in the Spartan and ram them into the enemy's face. DP can warp time them if they don't make their charge.

Cadian's are the finest soldiers in the galaxy by the text, they're probably heavily gene forged, just like sisters who because of it all end up looking the same

similarly Cadians are death worlders and count as having flak armour when they're bare chested
on a world with heavier gravity people could easily naturally grow to 8 feet or so, 10% of the human genome is unmapped

Baseline humans are barely tampered with. In a setting when you can add a dozen new organs to a human, the cursed founding did more, Cawl did even MOAR, and you can add dog genes to primarchs, you could say the genome soldiers are more like dog and horse breeding than outright gene tampering.

I'm mocking them for failing to match that lore blurb to the actual models.

Obviously they can't be masters of lightning assault if they're much slower than most assault marines.

Obviously they don't have elite specialist equipment if they have a pistol and knife. Yes, it's a Cawl pattern pistol, but all primaris have Cawl pattern stuff, it's just going to be a longer ranged or two shot bolt pistol with -1 rend. They'd have a power weapon or something if they genuinely had elite specialist combat equipment.

The trained to scare people thing might be true, but the appearance certainly doesn't hold up to it, they don't look more scary than regular primaris in any way.

His left leg and right arm are doing a power pose way out in front, while his left arm has dislocated itself to shoot an Ork behind him.

Oh my god, the shitstorms would be exquisite.

So what's with the conscript meme? Something about a decent unit for only 3 pts/model?

Just get enough dudes that they can handle enemy fire and then just plink down the enemy?

I wouldn't mind missing primarch gene from one of the two forgotten primarchs.

Not that, its the fact that they invalidate half the scenarios by being able to put more bodies on an objective than the enemy can remove. If someone plonks 100 conscripts and a commisar onto the relic, you're not getting it back unless you've brought an equally large horde

Us can have up to 100 or 150 conscripts on the field who don't take moral tests with characters and take orders.

Being dirt cheap makes it hard for specialized low model count armies from killing enough before they're just stuck in combat or drowned in bodies.

Kinda silly how Conscripts are the same points as gretchin but literally better in every way. If GW keeps up the whole idea of more actively balancing the game I could easily see them going up a point each if it ends up being too strong.

It's also the fact that a standard conscript blob (100 conscripts, commissar, company commander and priest) is EXTREMELY effective both in offensive and staying power for the cost

anyone notice the one in the background has a bolter? im hoping they have other options such as snipers aswell.

TINY LITTLE LEGS.

Is it just me or are Inquisitorial Acolytes fucking amazing with the right Quarry?

4+ with re-roll is better than a 3+ and re-rolling wounds helps guarantee your plasma/melta shots and powersword attacks. Each model has W3 A2 and can tank hits for their boss. All at the low price of 8pts without wargear. You get a lot of mileage for 2pts more than a Guard vet.

Driving them in in a transport for a plasma/melta/power party sounds fun

Of course Quarry is quite limiting, but still.

I'm expecting a lot of Snipers in the future. Ironically, the also Guard gets Ratlings which are pretty much as good as Scouts, Rangers or Deathmarks for less than half the price and practically no downside.
