40k armies thread Let's see, what armies you guys have got,

Alright to start things off

Got some Tau, want Grey Knights and Noise Marines+pals
Don't want to overload self though

I own tzeentch daemons
I would like to die

I like to throw copious amounts of men at the enemy until the enemy drown in blood of slain soldiers. So Astra Militarum for me.

>>54243927
Chaos Space Marines are my main army
also do Dark Angels and maybe Skiitarii in the future (but not my main focus)

>>54244486

>>54244390
>I would like to die

Does that have to do with Tzeentch or not?

>>54243927
Easier answer would be what armies I don't have, which are Space Marines barring Deathwatch, Imperial Guard, Sisters of Battle and Tau.

I have a problem, pls help me.

>>54244975
just finish what you already have at home

>>54244975

Your only reason for existing in life is to make everyone else feel better about their backlog

>>54245118
Trying, but progress is slow.

At this rate, they will be assembled in 2020.

>>54245145
>Trying, but progress is slow.
I know that feel (and my mine focus is just Chaos Marines)

Play nids and im still focused on just building on what i currently have which is not a great deal. Although when the time comes ill either do a deathwatch army or deldar on the side. Also r8 my nid scheme

>>54245281

neat scheme, soooo, what hive fleet is that

>>54245281
That's some boss painting skills anon, would you oblige a request for pics at different angles/close ups?

Here are the armies I play and collect

>Renegades and Heretics
>Death Guard
>Nurgle daemons

AoS:
Beastmen
Nurgle Rotbringers
Nurgle daemons

>>54245523
>Renegades and Heretics
My condolences
After the release of the FW indices that is

>>54245625
I hope the FW indexes will get better, if feels like they were rushed.

>>54245852
Or at the least
Not worse

>>54243927
I've got some tau, both farsight and Kel'shan sept, though recently I've been running everything as farsight enclaves.
Also got some D-99 that are now Elysian Drop Troops now that D-99 got squatted (why FW why).
>tfw playing 40k for combined arms
did I make a mistake?

>>54245932
You got tau
But the only combined arms being farsights merry anime crew frolicking locking arms

>>54246011
I thought drops troops were pretty combined arms-y, resembling ODSTs from Halo with mass flyers and small teams of vets with specialised weapon support

I play and collect
>Space Wolves 40k and 30k
>Black Templars
>Khorne Bloodbound
>Dorfs
>Nurgle Demons

I wanna play and collect
>Blood Pact
>Lamenters
>30k Talons

>>54243927
Orks main (it's over 6000)
Death guard secondary, used to be 1850, post-index I can only use about 900 points
1500 points of Deathwach I've been trying to unload
1200 points of Eldar likewise
Used to have 1500 point of Nurgle daemons only a single plaguebearer squad remains

>>54243927
Nurgle themed CSM
Necrons (About 1000 points assembled but unpainted)
Blood Angels
Couple of Ork units

I'm also looking at another vanilla SM chapter to paint.

I have far too much WHFB stuff still in boxes. May keep some and sell some though.

I also have problems.

>>54246303
What fantasy stuff do you have? You can have stuff I am looking for.

> no one on tg does have a fully painted army

Gee, would've tought. No wonder average tg player is cancer.

>>54246337
About 2000 points of Ogre Kingdoms and some Tomb Kings. (all on sprue) Some Lizardmen stuff, Dwarf stuff and my Empire, although I'm keeping them.

>>54246445
The Empire I mean, not necessarily the rest.

>>54246418
Plenty do, just not in the /40kg/ crowd.

>>54243927
I play:

Space Marines (Ultramarines)

Space Marine Legions (Imperial Fists)

Imperial Knights (House Teryn)

Because fuck you all, vanilla is the best flavor of icecream.

>>54246456
Egads! a Tyrannic wicker basket!

>>54246418

Joke's on you, I only assemble models while painting on them, so I can't have an unpainted army. My army is just small as fuck.

My current main force is Dark Angels and I'm building up a Mechanicus army. I also have some Assasins and an Inquisitor as a HQ for them.

>>54246456
Ey! It's that one fucker from the most retarded box set ever!

>Chapter Master Calgar, the entire gene-seed stocks of the Ultramarines (which fits in a lunchbox, just go with it) were on a plane that got shot down on a tyranid infested world!

MASSIVE Chaos army that is mono Slaanesh, I've now spit it up in my Deamon focused and my Dark Mechanicum (Artistic warpsmiths) again Slaaneshi.

A large Sisters of battle army with Inqusition elements since it used to be a Witch Hunter army.

And lastly a fairly big Eldar force based around Wraith Lords, lots of them.

>>54243927
I'm building a chaos space marine army made of mostly 30k models, since they are much cheaper for me to get and I think they look nicer anyway.

>>54243927
I have a wolves with imperium friends army, a 'chaos' space marines army (kitbashed with Skaven bits, tis a silly idea) and a Blood Ravens army. I want to start Ynnari

>>54245125
This.

>>54243927

Unironically Ultramarines, also got some Orks and Eldar.

for Fantasy/AoS I have some Dorfs and Skaven.

>>54246459
Honestly, Ultramarines were my first army ever back when I first started playing like 6 or 7 years ago, and they have swelled to become the biggest army I have. The others armies being chaos and tyranids, but I have always held a special place in my heart for Ultramarines. It's become more for nostalgia for me rather than for the rules.

>>54248048
>I can't do a retarded idea
Oh noes.

I've bought the boxed set and want to make my own dudes for numarines, I want to make a doom guy-esque chapter. Anyone have a good colour scheme?
I'm gonna be getting some imperial guards soon, bought my first 5 for cheap since they were an old box.

I plan to make a Veitnam G.I. styled ork army based around 3-4 dakkajets/burnabombers, 2-3 chinorks and as many lootaz, boyz, and Kommandos I can to support them.... and maybe some nobs in a Naut.

I have a lot of Guard but my first army was Dark Angels.
But I really don't enjoy playing Space Marines at all so they don't see much play.

I've played Orks since 4th, getting back into the game after skipping 6th and 7th.

is it worth digging out the whole collection or do people not care?

>>54248823
Definitely, Orks are a ton of fun this ed. First turn charges, still can't shoot for shit, mob rule is back and actually a strong rule this time. As for people not caring, I've actually seen a lot more enthusiasm for 40k since 8'th hit, people seem to be loving it. I say do it, if the new game isn't to your liking they can always go back in the attic.

>>54248983
oh haha, I'm def back in the game. I meant digging them out for pics

In pic:

3000+ pts of crons
2000+ points machanicus
1500 pts harlequins
inquisitor + ride and friends
star of a sob army, don't know how many pts.

Not featured in picture is:
3000+ pts of warriors of chaos
3000+ pts of ogres

>>54249289
Most of it is unpainted
You are a sad person anon

Money will never fulfill you

I just started getting into 40k with thos new edition, and I chose the starter kit of Necrons to begin with.

Any advice for a new guy? Also what do you think of a bronze themed army?

>>54249384 saddest part is that i have the most stuff painted in my entire gaming group, and i'm fuckiing drowning here.
Life is agony

>>54248622
Yes.

>>54249289
Jesus, you are even worse than I am.
t.>>54244975

>>54243927
In order of #units
Orks (main, a few thousand points last edition)
Tau (past main, about 2-3k points depending on upgrades)
Admech (secondary, was building warcon but no idea what to do with them atm until codex drops)
Thousand Sons (Ahriman, termies and 1 squad of rubrics)
Black Templars (6 painted BoP marines)
I like a lot of stuff in 40K, I also have a small AoS skellington army. I don't win games often because whenever I have money I buy a random useless unit I like from an army I barely play. I'm having fun though.

>>54249829
I dont know about that anon. At least his is assembled

>>54249871
Yeah, but he has far more stuff, and so much of it unpainted. I at least strive to paint everything I assemble. I will never bring grey models to the table.

>>54249289
>i had a problem
lmao, stop complaining about being rich.

I play Orks. I have an army of Chaos from the DG and Chaos half of the last two starter sets, but I've literally never played them and have considered selling them for Necron

Can't be arsed dragging my armies out but I recently sorted out all my WIP projects into tubs. Some have as little as one Blood Bowl team or Necromunda gang in, others have quite a bit, there's one with the entire miniature content of Heroquest packed in, another with about 40 1st-2nd ed Terminators that I want to give some love at some point.

Might start a blog to keep me motivated. I seem to go through patches, but doing all this sorting I haven't painted in months, when the idea was making it easy like this would help me.

A near company worth of babby's marines in all kinds of poorly colours, 200ish guardsmen Nam themed, and a bunch of unassembled chaos marines and daemons.

Want:
Pirate themed orks in battlewagons modelled as pirate ships plowing through the ground, alternately Nam orks because they actually have rules for open topped helicopters and planes dropping fire.
IG based on a mix of 8th army, LRDG and SAS in North Africa. Tank commander being handed a cheese sandwich, other russes being obviously captured tanks, scout sentinels fucking everywhere made from jeep model kits, tauroxes everywhere too.
IG army based on African militias, catachans with dark skin, scout sentinels and tauroxes everywhere made from toyota model kits. Conscript blobs and massed missile launcher teams standing and shooting or running rather that sitting and using supports.
IG heavily mechanized based on the USMC in Iraq, particularly early on. Ghetto humvees, hilbilly armor, gun trucks, wrong camo and all that jazz.
Clusterfuck of Gallian French, German, and Danish militaries from mid 19th to mid 20th century inspired IG, using either an Edelweiss model kit for a russ or just painting up a knight to match.
Eldar from craftworld Yu'Essesar with just hordes of tankodesantniki guardians on wave serpents. Everything in drap green, whites and grey, wood furniture on shuriken catapults.
Haemonculus deldar army.

Have:
>Orks
>Eldar
>small collection of Space Marines (basically a bunch of spare "start painting" sprues they gave out at a tournament plus a librarian
Sold:
>Tyranids in 5th edition (had a good deal)
>Tau in 7th edition (I just didn't want to play riptides and Railgun Broadsides just weren't the same, and I was not satisfied with the lack of focus for auxiliaries like Vespid, and no new non-Tau models so I sold it off)

Painted:
The number of total models I've painted is long past 1,500 but for friends I've painted
>Dark Eldar
>Wraithknight and Scatter Bike Heavy Eldar
>Space Marines (these were later sold off)
>Chaos Daemons
>Chaos Space Marines
Most of these were the collection of a best friend who's a good player but unwilling painter. Would often buy me paints/materials and take me to tournaments. When I started painting Dark Eldar was about the time I started getting notably better at painting.

Obviously don't have a full picture of all of the armies together so here's a small killteam I took in one campaign.

I see some of you really like to amass variety

>>54249854 here, decided to take pic.
Pic related is all of my more recent stuff, and a decent chunk of older models. I was going to take a picture of it all, but fucking phone cam could barely capture the table, never mind the bookshelf of models behind. Pretty much all of my unpainted models are in the picture, and I'm repainting some of my older ones like the battlewagon. As you can see, one of nearly every ork and tau unit, and no more. I have 4 lootas, 4 burnas, 6 bikes, 6 stealth suits, 10 pathfinders, 1 deff dread, 1 trukk, 1 hammerhead, and so on. This is why I liked warcon as an idea, you had to make 1 of every skitarii unit and no more.

>>54243927
I have Space Marines- Contemptor and a Ven Dread, 20 tac marines, unassembled Assault.

I really want to get some Dark Angels vet heads and some tacticool bits from Anvil to make a hooded, tacticool Sternguard squad.

Any social game like most of /tg/ is only as good as the people you play them with. If my only experience of 40K was my college's game society I would have quit in weeks, but cracking a cold one open with the lads over a game of 40K is a great way to spend an afternoon.

Why are desert bases literally the best bases for everything? They bring out so much colour in the models.

>>54256709
Right? I actually did a little darkening on them since they were too plain. Used Seraphim Sepia to wash and then drybrushed Vallejo Bone White. So now they look like the left half of the bottom base. If you're curious about the other colors, it's Vallejo Desert Sand and (top left) agrax earthshade, (top right) reikland fleshshade, (bottom right) casandora yellow. I was testing washes to see what would be best for a desert base.

Pick up a cryptek. After that, depends on what you want to play:
1) Warrior swarm with Ghost Arcs
2) Tesla Immortals + Lychguard vanguard storm
3) Bugs (only scarabs and wraiths are NASTY)
4) Destroyer coven with heavies

If you are going bronze/copper, pick up blue tubes for your dudes.

It is your fleet and Mantis is a fine name, but if they're supposed to be a medium-to-big tendril I recommend naming it after a mythical/cosmic beast so it fits better with Kraken, Behemoth, Leviathan, Gorgon, Jormungandr, etc.

I absolutely love the blue-crab aesthetic. Carcinus (Karkinos) is a crab-monster Hercules fought. Just saying.

I've been slammed with overtime the last month and a half at work and haven't been able to paint anything but it looks like this is the last week of this bullshit. I'm taking two weeks off next month and I'll probably spend a solid half of it just painting and basing though.

Adeptus Mechanicus, because I love their models.
I am going for an Agri-world theme though. My headfluff is they maintain machines used on the various farms, as well as genetically engineer new plants and animals (mostly insects, because it makes sense and I have no shortage of Sylvaneth bits), but of course they still keep their own defence forces for when the PDF aren't enough.

I am also going to make a Militarum Tempestus force, since I have some old Stormtrooper models, Kasirkin, and I do like the newer ones.
Also got Dark Imperium on a whim because it looked fun to paint. I think I will get into the Death Guard a little once I got the first 2 armies to at least 1000 points, and depending on what other units the Primaris get, I might make a small Imperial Fist force. Although it is more of a painting project, it just wont feel right unless I can look at it and think it makes sense from a siege perspective.

I've got Orks, Black Templars, and Dark Angels. I want to make a my doods Chaos Space Marine army at some point when I have a stronger financial stability

I'm actually not so interested in building armies anymore, I'm more interested in building kill teams because I can spend more time customizing my doods and I was always a bigger fan of cool looking infantry rather than a mix of vehicles and infantry like what you get with armies.

All your armies save the bottom one are so drab and colorless that on the first look through I genuinely thought they were just unpainted.

>>54260491

You said what I was thinking but didn't know if I should say.
The dude didn't paint them too badly, but overused black a bit much.
You got no detail popping out, can't make out eyes even.

Not all though, termies and bottom dudes look aight

Khorne Daemonkin is what I play, but I've been thinking of switching to Orks.

Been collecting orks for a while. Switched to guardsmen because I like the playstyle a little better.

Depending on how rules for 8E go I might start a small support force of space marines/sisters.

I'd love to collect chaos or tau but just wanna focus on guard for now.

Chaos daemons of nurgle, still touching up the paint jobs

I play Tau and Thousand Sons, but I have a small collection of other Chaos units I may cobble together into a different legion or two when the appropriate books come out.

Highly likely it's going to be World Eaters for combat backed up by some Iron Warriors tanks and assorted heavies. Something to act as a middle ground between the two usual playstyles of "pure long-ranged" and "pure psychic", so I need to get stuck in with a few axes.

They went from being a thing that was considered almost mandatory to a bit that shows up on SM characters and have details molded into them. Back banners, like helmets stripes and company numbers are curiosities from a bygone era.
