That Primaris Dreadnought is like a butterface. Like, I admit some parts of it are great, and I can see why people like it, but it's just so hideous. Like a 0/10 face on a 10/10 body. You can't say no to that booty.

Ha! Nowhere near a leviathan in stats!

Basically they oversized the model unnecessarily. Shoulda been about the size of a Contemptor with this profile.

I mean fuck, look at the stats: Fucker isn't even venerable.

This may well still be a great unit depending on efficiency for points, but holy hell is it not a Leviathan rivaler.

Probably because they go online to be huge faggots as they are wont to do, and then everyone calls them out on it relentlessly. Hating on Taufags is one of the few good things the 40k online community has achieved, and even that has some faggots trying to TIDF it.

Also article calls out that it doesn't have Atomatic shielding, so leviathan is T8 2+ 4++ and Redemptor is T7 3+. Even as a gun platform, leviathan lasts longer, has better BS and can take two primary arm guns.

It doesn't even have more weapon hardpoints than a leviathan: Yeah, the current FW rules don't include rules for the top mount missiles that come in the kit, but it's still the same number and arrangement of hardpoints overall.

>>54315514
Yeah, I'm not sure what they're going for with this "leviathan but worse" angle. No invuln, 3+ save. The weapons will have to be really fucking good.

Yeah, it honestly seems more like a Contemptor equivalent?

No Atomatic shielding, but a bit more bulk so more wounds. Pilot isn't venerable because it's more mass-producible, but comes with more gun hardpoints.

It has ups and downs compared to the three statlines that comprise imperial Contemptor Dreads, whereas the leviathan blows both out the water.

All of that money was made off marinelet releases though. There haven't been enough time and haven't been any official data for Primaris sales. It hasn't even been one quarter, so they haven't even done their sales tax returns, let alone an actual financial statement.
>>
>>54315724
With those stats they are
>>
>>54315705

Yeah, Leviathans are 16. Too pricey to spam, but a lovely centrepiece model for the amount of oomph you get from that ~300-340 points.

I find the key to getting the most out of my leviathan is to make sure he's not in a good firing lane position to be alpha struck... He's a hell of a fire magnet, and can and will draw an entire army's shooting.

(Not that that'a tactically a bad thing, I've won two games specifically because so much effort went into killing my leviathan everything else was completely free to maneuver and fire)

Well, we know where their priorities lie. That said, with a stated commitment to game balance the release schedule should look something like this:

Wave 1: Marines, Chaos Marines, Guard, Craftworlds, Tau (those being the most popular in the "other imperium", "Eldar alliance" and "other xenos" categories)

Lion'el Jonson translates to "Lion, son of the forest". And "el" means son. So on Caliban forest means jonson. Make of that what you will.

>>54316160

Nobz are surprisingly decent, outfitted with Big Choppas and Power Stabbas. Just avoid Power Klaws and you'll be fine. 'Nauts on the other hand are pretty much just meme units; they continue to pay out the arse for their godawful guns and they don't have the survivability to stand up to the kind of shooting being flung around the battlefields of 8th. They will make short work of most things they actually make contact with mind, but that's not enough to justify that horrific points cost.

Crimson Fists occupy the same special category as Black Templar. They are more likely to get a main Codex slot than any FW chapter. That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if an 8th slot isn't take up by the Unnumbered Sons.

Alright anons, making the final purchases for my Dark Eldar army to get back into this game; is there any reason I should take one or two of these instead of just having 4 Sslyth?

There is the points cost, but I think if Sslyth outclass them entirely I'd rather shave points elsewhere, especially as my army is pretty lacking CQC potential at present.

Airbrush-wantingfag here, seeking some more advice before I place an order for my first airbrush.

Let's say I am 100% buying a gravity-fed airbrush with dual action trigger and a compressor with tank and pressure regulator and water trap. Within your chosen budget, would you opt for a higher quality airbrush or a higher quality compressor?

As a first timer, it worth spending more on getting an airbrush with a trigger stop "crutch" so I can produce smoother coats?

The airbrush I'm looking at it is
https://www.air-craft.net/acatalog/Infinity-CRPlus-2-in-1-Airbrush-126594.html with a cheap £80 compressor and tank and cleaning/thinning ancillaries. I've read that this airbrush is super easy to clean because of how it is designed and it has a .15 and .40 needle and nozzle for flexibility.

Or there's this: https://www.air-craft.net/acatalog/Harder-Steenbeck-Evolution-Silverline-Solo-Airbrush.html#SID=145

Any input?

Because metagaming is fucking cancer. Play a fluffy list first before thinking about making it good.

Looks are exactly the reason I'm considering them, eyebeam brain monster is fucking awesome and I love it; if it was just a matter of that I'd be sold.

BUT I think the Sslyth look awesome as well, so they're neck and neck on the style front which means the numbers game is winning out, and as I don't know how things play out in the game these days, I'm here for opinions.

Special weapos or items which represent powerful and sacred possessions of the faction. One per army.
>>
>>54316457
Unless you convert I wouldn't take four of the same. Maybe one Sslyth, one Medusa and two Lhameans? Nice variety, snake tanks all the things, and you have a callback to Vect's pimp wagon with the Lhameans.
>>
>>54316485
Or one per detachment.
>>
>>54316485
One relic for entire army or a only one of its kind and you can take more?
>>
>>54316480
4 of the same 2 monopose models next to each other still looks kinda ugly. That's why there are 4 different options for the Archon bodyguard IIRC.

>>54316484

New relic rules is that you cannot have more relic units of a single battlefield role than you do non-relic units. So if you take 6 boltgun devastators you can take 6 relic units. Yes, it's retardef
>>
>>54316493
I'm going for a minimal bare skin, helmets only, Kabal only set up to start with for this force, so that ruled the Lhameans out. I'm not considering the Sslyth as bare skin, obviously.

Lhameans will probably get added somewhere down the line though, even if its just a decorative pimped out Raider centrepiece.

>>54316514
Eh, having 2 and 2 monopose models doesn't bother me so much, especially as I'll try to make the paint jobs differentiate them a bit. And I don't care much for the Ur Ghul anyway.

No, if you drill them now you'll only ruin the paintjob on them. Maybe for the next unit you do.

Clean the colors around the visor of the middle guy up a bit, then base them and you're done. Good job.

If you're wondering how to base them, watch this video:

>Neovaginal prolapse is a rare and distressing complication after male-to-female sexual reassignment surgery. We retrospectively analysed the prevalence of partial and total neo-vaginal prolapses after sexual reassignment surgery in our institute. During the years, two different techniques have been adopted with the aim of fixing the neovaginal cylinder. In the first, two absorbable sutures are placed at the top of the penoscrotal cylinder and fixed to the Denonvilliers fascia. In the second, two additional sutures are added from the posterior/midpoint of the flap to the prerectal fascia. We enrolled 282 consecutive transsexual patients. 65 (23.04%) out of the 282 were treated with the first technique and the following 217 (76.96%) with the last technique. In the first technique, 1 case (1.53%) of total prolapse and 7 cases (10.76%) of partial prolapse were observed, while in the other 217 patients treated with the second technique only 9 cases of partial prolapse were observed (4.14%) and no cases of total prolapse. All prolapses occurred within 6 months from the procedure. In our experience, the use of 4 stitches and a more proximal positioning of the sutures to fix the penoscrotal apex with the Denonvilliers fascia guarantees a lower risk of prolapse.

Question for the Chaos players, specifically about Rhinos.

1) It says I can "take" a Combi-Weapon so I assume I don't have to switch the Combi-Bolter out to get it, right?
2) Would you turn your Rhino into a gun platform or keep it cheap? I'm thinking Combi-Bolter, Combi-Flamer and Havoc Launcher for the Rhino transporting by 2 Flamer+Combi-Flamer squad.

I'd keep it cheap because it's going to move and advance almost all the time, so it'll rarely shoot, and it won't be good at it. This will give you point for extra bodies and weapons that will be fired on most turns in optimal conditions.
>>
>>54317115
Well, that's why I was thinking about the Combi-Flamer. The To Hit-penalty doesn't matter with a Flamer.
Also I play Death Guard, so the amount of shooting I can push into a squad of Plague Marines is rather limited.
But I can see your point about guns on a transport.
>>
>>54315482

2 HBs on HWT cost you 24, 2 Lascannons 48, they have 4W at T3 with 5+ save.

So it's a matter of if the extra endurance is worth the loss of target selection.
I think the HB variant is, but I prefer to be able to target vehicles clearly.

Neither feels particularly stellar but I want to avoid using marks of chaos if possible

That... I like that. It basically means you HAVE to play at least a Battalion detachment or you fucking gut yourself trying to take a Chapter Master in a small game. This also makes Papa Smurf giving you additional Command Points that much more valuable.

Heavy bolter is best universal weapon. Giving it 18 shots is insane.

Don't be a dense retard. While 40k combined together elements of just about every 80s sci-fi movie, and WHFB took the main ideas from typical fantasy (Tolkien) and some other bits like Chaos, that is not the same as Blizzard lifting the entire art style for Warcraft

Has there been any depiction of a "new" space marine chapter in any of the fluff or novels?

For example with these new Ultima Founding chapters, the Imperium is making all completely new gear and shit for primaris but also any founding involves a new rotation of making power armor, building ships, and setting up the system that will support the new chapter. In addition to getting some of the equipment from their progenitor chapter.

In most portrayals space marine chapters are already centuries or millennia old organizations with history books full of muh deeds and ancient relic blades in the armory of terran steel folded over a thousand times. So what is it like to be a chapter where you don't have much history? They probably just have a bunch of shit gifted from their progenitor and recall the history of that chapter, and of course officers from the progenitor as the first commanders but are there any in-depth examples?
>>
>>54317570
yeah but T5, 9 wounds vs T7, 14 wounds.
>>
>>54317314
doing it with the blunt side aka pressing the sharp side into your finger sounds like a great way to JUST your hand
>>
>>54317570

So the Mortis dreads have higher toughness, more wounds and more heavy Bolter shots, but the centurions have 2+ armour, can benefit from cover, move and shoot without penalty and have hurricane bolters.

Meanwhile the Redemptor has little going for it the others don't other than having a power fist.

No, that was a shit meme and nobody would know because they refused to play against "OP" forge world back then. Gimme some examples of those FW P2W units from any time. Hint: better than mainstream 40k != "OP" if the unit is not actually OP. For example, FW rapier batteries were much better than forgefiends in 7th edition, but they still weren't OP. They just didn't suck complete shit like the fiend. P2W means you just buy a unit to win.

Yeah, funny how that worked out. Khorne is part of the AoS starter set and already got 2 releases in AoS and people keep complaining about it, shitting all over GW for ignoring the other three and what do you know, they listened and gave the focus to Tzeentch and Nurgle for 40k.

Personally I assume Noise Marines will get done before Khorne Berzerkers because the 'zerkers at least have a plastic kit, even if it is old as fuck.

nurgle is a pretty close second, there's a lot of nurgle shit in smegmar too. really it's just that slaanesh doesn't match le kid friendly WoW feel that GW needs to rake in masses of doshola.

as for tzeentch, I dunno. I guess it's a bit less in your face than khorne or nurgle, with those two you can easily market such simple ideas as BLOOD and ZOMBIES. but they could just play up the magical aspect, DUDE BLUE WIZARDS SHOOT RADICAL FIRE.

I'm happy. In fact when I learned about them assault rules I nutted my pants.

Are you talking about the novel?

Chapter Master was a Codex role created by Guilliman during the Second Founding since Primarchs obviously didn't split into their own chapters. Surviving Primarchs at the time of that founding were Chapter Masters of their respective Chapters until they died ot vanished. Guilliman in the 3rd Gathering Storm book took back the role from Calgar. He respectfully and politely requested it and Calgar graciously gave up the title and the responsibilities. He then became Guilliman's equerry. The new Codex will reflect this fluff change. Hell, Guilliman has the Chapter Master rule but it's reworded and buffex slightly.

The other 1st Founding chapters need some love.

Good general buff + decent if situational offensive buff. Encourages you to push forwards and engage with the enemy & to not be afraid of your dudes getting charged, while still leaving them vulnerable to getting crumped by shooting or melee against more competent units.

I like it, I was very afraid that army wide rules were going to get turfed this edition, knowing that they're back, and strong at that, is actually quite comforting. Can't wait to see what the FW chapters and CSM get.

>>54318138
They have recently become rather good when it comes to barfing out Mortal Wounds, and are decent beat sticks, which become crazy good if they wipe out another unit.

A five man unit has FNP, and a 5++ invuln, that can turn into a 3++ invuln with fnp. Everytime they charge, they roll a die for each model in their unit, and mortal wound the enemy on a 6. Also, if they roll a 6 to wound, it becomes D3 Mortal wounds. Not too bad, honestly.

I like the lore and the rules, but the models are awful in my opinion.

With subfaction rules like this, I'll be very impressed if they successfully manage to get mechanically and flavorfully distinct rules for a handful of subfaction for every major faction. Between chapters, regiments, dynasties, craftworlds, clans, septs, legions, hive fleets and so on, that's a LOT of individual rules.

Spiritual Liege Stratagem

Recognising the inherent tactical and cultural superiority of the Ultramarines, others in the Imperium look to their example in all things warfare.
Any time an [Ultramarimes] unit is included in another [Space Marines] or [Imperium] faction army, that [Ultramarines] unit must go first in every one of your Battle Phases. If you have multiple [Ultramarines] units, you may select any unit from that faction and cycle through each [Ultramarines] units until they have all completed their movement/shooting etc. Conversely if you have only one unit of non-[Ultramarines] in your army, that unit must always go last.
>>
>>54318333
We already knew there would be unique rules for subfactions, but we now know what that sort of rule looks like. It could be challenging to create ~30 mechanically and flavorfully distinct rules like that which are all balanced against each other.

Those are fun as well, able to barf humongous amounts of shots and attacks out that, while not particularly strong individually, are so numerous that anything will die through sheer number of forced saves. Also distinguishable as the best anti-horde option AdMech has available.

I also like the generator on their backs, makes them look really weird and snail-like.

The problems I encountered when dry fitting warriors, is that compared to Skitarii heads, Necron heads are itty bitty. Plus, using warriors means you have to clip down the neck of the warrior. This isn't going into how you need staffs, and Lychguard war scythes dont really fit on warriors.

If your looking for smaller guys, look towards things like Mandrakes, Incubi, and other Dark Eldar stuff. Sorortas might also have some stuff as well.
>>
>>54318474
>since those would be utterly pointless if all loyalist chapters get their own codex
I think so purely because the "big three" loyalist chapters have too much of the other chapters in their unit-set or ruleset. Just look at Blood Angels — they love flamers and meltashit and Assault Marines, and have access to unique flamers and melta weapons, which renders Salamanders and Raven Guard being thematically superfluous. Dark Angels have Ravenwing so what can White Scars offer that isn't offered by DA RW?

The only Chapters that could be unique are Imperial Fists (cheap fortications, mobile fortifications and siege units, but this would make them quite niche and potentially broken as fuck with regards to objective-contesting) and Iron Hands who might have a more Skitarii feel to them.

No he's right, priests put out 3 shots per 14 points, with a chance to make each shot 3 hits on a 6+, while infilitraitors put out 5 shots for 26 points. Point for point the priests are better, since they make more shots per point, have better strength and the same range.

>>54318678
Vindicare for me was great. Playing against a Kid army, I sniped out his Venomthropes and Zoey's and it made things much easier.

Sicaran, with 2 lascannons was a pretty scary presence on the table as well. I was chewing through Monsters. It became a priority for him but made its points back and then some before it was blown up.

I had 3 Leman Russ dems in my Guard army and 3 Vindicators in my Spess Muhreen army. The lack of a pie plate really hampers them, as does the change in wounding mechanics and lack of ID in 8th.

Pask is always worth taking. He can order himself and other Tank Commanders.

Punisher is good, Demolisher is good against single targets, Battle Cannon has good range and is pretty flexible, Executioners are okay, but become much better when they are on Pask/Tank Commander and get the re-roll 1s to hit order from Pask/himself, and Eradicators are solid against infantry in cover. It ignores cover all together, but in most cases that just means it's effectively -3AP instead of -3AP.

>>54318776
Well running 3 is your problem. Like you said, they are much better at hitting MC/Tanks. And I guess your meta is shifting towards hordes. Mine still has plenty of tanks and MCs to shoot.
>>
>>54318767
In this edition you can spam a good number of HQ or whatever kind of unit type you want. And those extra orders will same you a lot as a guard, since now orders never fail.

Don't think of them as the inaccurate pie plates of doom they they were, they're basically just d3 shot lascannons now so you need to put it on a platform with good BS to land your shots.

To be fair, they did the same thing from 5e-7e. "I order myself to aim better!"

I always found it weird that Orders were just "free buff", rather than allowing "multi-unit tactics" ("Cover their advance. Scratch that tank", etc).
>>
>>54318853
Officers can order themselves yeah. Characters that have AoE buffs also effect themselves, so Priests get +1 attack to themselves, Harker re-rolls 1s too.

Pask's rule says he can issue orders to friendly Cadian Leman Russ Characters and he meets those requirements.

They will be behind two full boyz mobs with painboy, warboss, and KFF mek in tow, and my plan is to basically move up as one huge mob and split up as I need to. I figure the boyz will soak up the shots on the advance, but I am completely new to playing this game so I could be in for a bad time.

Came across a random conundrum.

Cypher has both the Imperium and Chaos Keywords. He also has no restrictions against being fielded with Dark Angels.

Could he still summon Daemons for a Dark Angel army if you set aside points? Since summoned Reinforcements do not belong to a detachment, and Cypher has the Imperium keyword, the army is still Battle Forged.

Yes, you can run Cypher summoning bloodthirsters in the same detachment as Draigo and Azhrael

I remember being able to do the same in 7E w/ Khorne Daemonkin, since their Flesh Hounds replaced Instability with Fearless. Thus they made an excellent escort for a Sorcerer of Slaanesh, since units with Marks could not join units with a different Mark. Flesh Hounds did not have the Mark of Khorne, but were Daemons of Khorne.

Also, why drop the Blight Launchers? I think they're really good especially against medium vehicles and heavy infantry.
The Poxwalkers are just meant to stop people charging the Plague Marines.
Thanks for the feedback though, I'll see what I can do with it

Hmm, that's only 719 points. In a 2000 point game, you could take 1 5 man cent in a LRC, 1 4 man in a LRC and 1 3 man in a LRC, with a techmarine with stormbolter and 2 servitors with HB.
That gives you
>36 ass cannon shots, 78 HB shots, 232 bolter shots
All with 5 points left over. I think we might be reaching maximum BRRRRRRRRT

It's just their unique mechanic that emphasises them being a strict military

You might as well argue that everyone should have Tau's Supporting Fire because surely everyone trains to support each other in battle
Or that everyone should have Mob Rule because surely every army is braver in great numbers.

for that amount of point you could get 200 HB shot with 5 vultures.
and they wont die to random deepstrikes

We get aura effects instead. You get to order one (or two) units per Officer. Marines get to reroll 1s To Hit around Captains and 1s To Wound against Lieutenants. I actually think the Order mechanic guts Guard a bit because you have so many units but can only buff a limited number per turn, whereas other armies buff all units standing close to their commanders.

plaugemarines dont really need help with horde armies they're practically immune to bolter fire so anything weaker than that is a joke.
I play GK's and have played my friend in 4 games with varying lists. I have some slight advantages in that i ass fuck his daemon prince and foetid blight-drone instantly as they're daemons, but despite my insane amount of storm-bolter fire turn 1 ill hardly kill any.
Plasma is your best answer to meq/teq dudes, and blight launchers are too expensive for what they do imo. The pred and a hellbrute or two can handle heavier stuff much better.
One game he took 2 units of cultists which I would say are far better than poxwalkers and they all just died to incidental bolter fire.

This is common IRL for weapons too big to fit inside a turret, like the Bradley's box-o-TOWS. Even a larger turret wouldn't work here as the turret RING is too small to fit all the equipment inside the tank as well as the gunner and commander. Call it the "Panzer III effect".

I kinda applaud FW for recognizing this as opposed to ignoring that problem like the Leman Russ, but yea, the result looks silly.

Any idea how to convert these things? Seems like a fun project I'm having trouble finding inspiration.

ditch the kff, buy a trukk

what youre planning to do might be effective, but incredibly dull to play and easy to predict by your opponent

also the boyz wont soak up shots cause your enemy is free to target the nobs and intervening models dont provide a coversave anymore so doing that is pointless and youre only making your nobs have to go further to get in charge
